Port comes from Wild Alaskan Company. You ever stand in the seafood aisle and think, Wait, do I actually trust this fish, or is this fish lying to me?

That used to be me, total fish paranoia, until I found Wild Alaskan Company. Wild Alaskan Company delivers wild-caught, nutrient-dense seafood right to your door.

It's perfectly portioned, it's fresh, and honestly, it tastes way better than the mystery filet that's been staring at you from behind the glass at the grocery store. Soggy salmon is my MVP.

It's rich, flavorful, and makes me feel like I'm eating the healthiest thing on earth. Wow, thanks for that testimonial.

It makes sense because it's all 100% wild-caught, never farmed, which means no antibiotics, GMOs, or weird additives. Just real clean fish.

Yep, that's right. They freeze it right off the boat to lock in the flavor, the nutrients, and you know what else? There are lots of omega-3s locked in.

and because it's sustainably sourced from alaska every box supports healthy oceans fishing communities and your membership comes with flexible shipments cooking tips and zero guilt about dinner do you have guilt about dinner not while i'm eating these fish that's the right answer you have something you need to say yeah i'd like you guys to try and say sustainably source three times go

The lonely island and Seth Meyers podcast show.

All right, I'm recording. From the look of Seth's, from the look of his, this is not where he normally is.
He's suddenly in kind of a dark, sad cave.

And I'd love not to talk about where I am. Just trying to keep it on the down low right now, where I am, where I'm going to be.

You know, that's not important.

It's not really important where we are. It's not really important where we are, what we're doing.

Do you have a drink, Seth? It looks like you'd have a drink. I might have a drink.
But I want to also welcome everybody to the Lonely Island Seth Myers podcast. And we have a special guest with us.

Hi, Keenan. Hi, everybody.
Keenan Thompson. I need a cowbell.
I need the big boy in the morning cowbell right now. So bad.

Well, Keeve, I'm doing it. I'm shaking my vest.
Oh, yeah. Get in there.
Nice.

Oh, that's the highest honor. They always say

when you're about to do a podcast, put on your loudest vest.

One of the Quaid Army made this for me. Quaid Army made a Quaid Army vest for Yorma that he's currently wearing in a hospital bed.
Oh, my God. Can you tilt your camera down? Okay.
All right. Fine.

Fine. There we go.
Yeah, Quaid Army. It says Quaid Army.
Oh, my gosh. Yeah.
They wanted me to wear it on the podcast, I think, because it was... It's a loud vest.
Yeah.

It's got a bunch of trash bags attached to it as well, which I thought was funny. Oh, because your other vest.
Yeah, you're referencing my other vest. And there's no anthrax on it.
Oh, definitely not.

I feel great.

Keenan, there'd be too much to stop and explain it to you. It's just nonsense.
Yeah, you got to listen from the beginning, bro.

But I will say, and Keenan, I'm very cognizant of how busy you are, and I want to make sure we don't waste your time. But I want to say one vest-related thing.
So, first of all, Jor bought a vest.

Everybody said it was ugly. And then we shamed him for his vest.
And then also recently, Keenan, hopefully you're up to speed, Jorm fell off a ladder.

One of our listeners wrote in and basically had a theory.

And their theory was, Had Joram been wearing his vest, do you think it was possible that when he fell off the ladder, it would have served as a parachute?

And surreal. And

do you now all feel a little bit responsible because you shamed him into not wearing a vest that could have saved his pelvis? I could sue you guys for peer pressuring me out of my parachute vest.

Oh, man. Because

it did look like it could parachute that last vest. I agree.
Fully agree. Number one, I am not caught up yet because you guys have a fucking archive going.
So

way back. I think I'm on like Laser Cats 1, honestly.
Honestly, that's pretty good. That's pretty good.

I'm catching up, but I have a ways to go. And Jorm, I'm sorry, man.
What did you break your pelvis? What happened?

Pelvis, sacrum, pelvis was detached from spine. I messed that up.
I'm sorry. That's for corrections.
It was not my sacrum. It was my pelvis that was detached from my spine.
Gotcha.

He's giving it to you very casually because he's on a lot of drugs and he's in the hospital, but it was horrific. Oh, man, I'm so sorry.
Yeah, no, I'm genuinely, I think, lucky to be live.

And my PT guy, just uh, my guy, Michael, just confirmed that for me because he was like, Oh, yeah, yeah, you got real lucky. You should be paralyzed.
Oh, man,

you're not. Um, so yeah, I'm good.
He did, uh, I, you know, I do want to make sure we

inform you that he was on the ladder trying to save kids from a fire. No way, he was hanging lights.
Yeah, no doubt. First of all, the lights that I was hanging, Keenan, are super charming.

I will see you. Beautiful fairy lights, Gorn.
Then you can decide whether it was worth it or not. Okay, Jorm's basically the manic pixie girl of his own life.

By the way, when he hit the ground, his pelvis went, Oh, Lord, have mercy.

Oh, I'm a pelvis. I'm never gonna rock again.

Hey, Andy Sandberg, you're here auditioning for Elvis's pelvis? Oh, yeah, I want to fall off of the ladder.

Hey, let her over there.

I don't know. A three, a two, a one, drink, king.
Oh, Lord of Marcy.

I've been reading for the role of Yorma's P. Elvis.

I don't know what this bit is. Yeah, what's the P stamp for?

I don't know, a keyboard

old friend. Little known fact, Elvis's pelvis was very famous.
And one time he went on the Ed Sullivan show and was thrusting it back and forth.

And do you know they framed the shot above his waist so that at home you wouldn't see the thrusts? I like the history, Liza. Yeah.
Hey, Keenan.

Andy has a bit. His bit is when you audition for a rock and roll bio pick and you come in and you have to do

sing like somebody. And then the bit is a little, a few lines into the song, you realize you're not going to get the part and you just apologize and leave.

So who do you want to do, Kenan? Who's somebody you can sing a couple lines for? Because I'm going to make you do the bit.

I'm going to name people you've done on the show. Do you want to do Barry White? Do you want to do BB King? Uh, do you want to do Bob Dylan or one that's already been made?

Like, it could be like Keenan Thompson reading for Ray. Yeah, do you want to ever do that? Oh, that's pretty funny.

Okay, so, but again, once you just once you start singing, you immediately realize it's definitely going to be Jamie Foxx. Yeah, no doubt.
Hey, welcome. It's great to see you, Keenan.
We're huge fans.

Thank you, man. Yeah, just to remind everybody, Keenan Thompson, and I'm here reading for the part of Ray Charles.
All right, we're very excited. Whenever you're ready, Keenan, she take my.

You know what? I think I actually. ready for somebody else.

I'm just going to go. Yeah.

That was perfect.

This speaks to a thing that anyone who's ever worked with Keenan would say. No one needed less direction than Keenan.

Like before a table read.

Like there were certain actors in our and Golden era who it was worth it to really go through it with them line by line because they had a real precision and they wanted to know exactly what you wanted.

You go up to Keenan like two seconds seconds before the sky started, you'd be like, Oh, by the way, I forgot you're playing this, this, and you talk like this.

And he's like, Yeah, all right, yeah, sure. Just then would nail it.
Yeah, I saw it. Never gonna drop the ball when it's passed to you.

He's having a good time.

All right. Two Worlds Collide is maybe my favorite digital short.

Oh, gosh. I would have been perfectly happy of this one at all.
It's so dense and so wonderful.

And I don't know where to begin, but I guess maybe I'll just, since we have you, Keenan, how do you remember it was brought to you the first time?

Well, I mean, Andy came and was like, Hey, we want to like redo that thing you tried last week because I had tried the Reba thing as just like a straight-up sketch, like a commercial parody, because I saw her do like the American Eagle ad or something to try to protect American bald eagles.

And I just was recreating that with a Reba. Oh my god, when you sorry to interrupt, you said American Eagle.
I thought you were talking about the jeans. Yeah,

and I was like, Oh my god, Reba has good jeans.

Oh, that's some good clickbait. And yeah, that was that was kind of how it went because that didn't make sense at all because I didn't explain why I was pretending to be Reba.

That's why we loved it. It was so fucking good, though.
So that was your idea. And then you wrote that with Spivey, if I recall correctly, right? Yeah, I think so.

Now we asked Spivey for a voice note.

And just real quick, again, this was Keenan was playing Reba with no commentary. Right.
Like, there was never a reason why it was Keenan playing Reba in the sketch before this week.

And so here's Spivey, I think, explaining a little bit of it. Keenan, we'll cut it if it's, if she's being weird.

She did say you've had a falling out and she wants to air out those grievances.

Hi, guys. This is Spivey.

How's everybody doing? Everybody good? Yeah, we're good. Thanks.
Thanks, Edward.

Let's see, Reba. I remember sitting with Keenan

and we were just goofing around and he was doing his impression of Reba McIntyre, which was basically just him going, I'm Reba,

and then making this like persnickety, yes, sad kind of face.

And I was dying. We were both dying, laughing.

And I said, what if we wrote a sketch where you played Reba McIntyre just in like a red wig, and all you basically say is, I'm Reba, and then make that face, but it's a commercial set so it's you playing Reba and Reba's doing a commercial for Fiddle Fattle which is that butter toffee popcorn treat called Fiddle Faddle so perfect thing for her to say she that was it right and she does the whole commercial Reba and just keeps saying I'm Reba but nobody on set acknowledges the fact that Reba is a handsome young black man in a red wig, like it's everyone's just oblivious to it.

I think that was the original joke, and it did go to the table, but it didn't make it in, but it did okay.

And then Yorma came, I think it was Yorma that came up to me later in the week and was like, Oh my god, that Reba thing. And I was like, Yeah, we had fun writing that.

And then he was like, Would you care if we did it, made it a digital short? And I was like, Are you kidding me? I'd be friggin thrilled, you little stud.

Anyway,

yeah, so that's the story.

Kiki probably has more, maybe he remembers better than I do, but that's how I remember it. Sweet genius Keenan.
All right. Love you guys.
Ah, man. Do I love hearing her voice?

I like her assuming that I would remember anything. Yeah.
I was just, I've been saying lately, like, we have such awesome, like, big sisters in the game. Oh, yeah.

Like, our big sisters are heavy fucking hitters, man. Like, yeah, my God, that is true beyond words.
Yes.

but yeah i remember i i thought we did like a full dress rehearsal that tanked or something like that but maybe i'm remembering it to what we shot i think that happened i i just know that we were obsessed with it i agree andy i think we blocked it yeah i remember having a shot i also like based on what the sketch was that you guys saw keen in his Reba and the failure to acknowledge that it was strange casting as the nut of what was going to be great in the digital short.

I think we debated whether or not to ever explain it, even in within the song. Yeah, yeah, like whether it needed any explanation.

Because it was our favorite part, was that it was not explained, and then we do end up explaining it. Yes, but once we started diving into the writing of it, the idea of doing basically a Rashaman

in song form was making us laugh so hard. It's again one of those digital shorts that moves so quickly.

Like 40 seconds in, so many things have happened, and you kind of can't, you kind of can't believe.

What are the famous, I'm not going to remember them off the top of my head, but I feel like it was a genre that they don't do that often anymore.

Like, it's not Ja Rul and Ashanti necessarily, it's more when it's people from different genres of music collabing and there's a

feeling of, you know, it's not necessarily the Jay-Z Lincoln Park stuff, but the feeling of like, here it is, everybody. The two, you know, it's Aerosmith and

Rendy MC a little bit of the two worlds colliding. You've been waiting for this.
Like you didn't think it was possible that these two Titans, you know, Bono and

that these two icons together in a Bonnie and Clyde situation are creating music that's just going to blow up not just the rock charts, but the

all the different pop charts and

public enemy anthrax. That was one, right? Well, there's the whole Judgment Night soundtrack.
Oh, yes. Those are all collabos.
That's a little different than what Keith's describing, but it does

bear mentioning. But then the great thing about it as well is Andy introduces this idea, and Keenan's playing Reba, and Andy's playing Andy.

So it's also really funny that immediately, like, the first premise is that Andy's a Titan. Yeah,

comedy premise. But you're playing it with that action.
Already was making us laugh so hard to be like, what if we were acting like top of the world? Yeah.

And of course, Reba in quotes would agree with all that.

Because they're both acting like, this is what you've been waiting for. It's the last thing anyone's been waiting for.

Comedy Prince, why not? I don't know who the fuck this dude is. And you're so sure that it's what we've been waiting for that you can't, you literally can't wait to tell us the news.

Yeah, that's what I mean. And that's where we started for a while, like before we really got deep into the song and realized maybe there were some turns to be had.

But we were building just off those first few lines, I feel like. I also, again, every time I revisit one of these, and again, I've seen them a hundred times.

I'm still in my head, like, I bet it's probably like 20 seconds in where you see Reba and it might be like three oh yeah well we got it we're gonna do a rewatch keen a lot of times on the ones we haven't seen we then collectively watch it together so we can discuss

Support for the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers podcast comes from Airbnb. I stayed at Airbnb once with my family in Pittsburgh.
That's where my dad's from. We go back once a year and it was incredible.

They had pictures of all the famous people, beautiful black and white photos of famous people from Pittsburgh. And my favorite thing about the weekend was looking at Mr.
Rogers next to Wiz Khalifa.

The thing I love about Airbnb is how it turns travel into something more personal.

You're not just visiting a city, you're staying in a space that feels unique and lived in, and that makes the whole experience more memorable. And that's the other side of it, too.

Your place gives someone else that same feeling. While you're away, your home doesn't have to sit empty.

Hosting on Airbnb means someone gets a welcoming spot to stay, and you get the benefit of putting your space to good use.

I love trips where I've stayed at Airbnb, and sometimes I come home wanting to add touches that I saw in other people's homes because they brought character to a living space that I was envious of.

Your home could be worth more than you think. Find out how much at airbnb.com slash host.

Support comes from factor. Hey, Yorm.
Hi, Keith. Fall always feels like a reset.
Tell me, Yorm, where's the lie in that sentence?

You can't find me. I beseech you to find the lie.
Nope, fall always feels like a reset, right, Andy? I know you're not recording, but I can see you there. You can nod.
He nodded.

Between back to school, busier routines, and shorter days, finding time to cook can be tough. That's why I love Factor.

They are chef-prepped, dietitian-approved meals, make it easy to stay on track and enjoy something comforting and delicious, no matter how hectic the season gets.

That's leaf peevement season and people love it. And you gotta get up there as quick as you can be, or else you're not gonna peep any of those leaves.
Oh, the buttery browns.

In all that craziness, wouldn't it be nice to just have prepped meals that you could just eat? I know that'd be great for me. Oh, here's Liz.

Liz, just off the top of your head, would you agree with this statement? Summer is relaxing. Fall, it gets hectic.
Just say yes or no. Oh my gosh.
Fall? Yes. She gets it.
Support your wellness goals.

Enjoy even more GLP-1 friendly meals and new Mediterranean diet options packed with protein and good for you fats. Savor global flavors.

For the first time, try Asian-inspired meals with bold flavors influenced by China, Thailand, and more. Liz, does that sound good? One word answer, please.
Yummers. That was the right word.

Should we just, should you just start us off, Keeve, with the rewatch? Yeah, I can do that. But what else? Is there anything else we need to know before

we start for the setup? Oh, it's pretty loose bones, man.

But

it's loose bones as an idea, but then it's like the tightest writing because it is a real story. Yeah, no, it really started to get like built on it.
Yeah. Stream of consciousness meets narrative arc.

Yeah. Yeah.
I want to know where this one got on the top 64. It definitely made the final 16.

That's pretty big.

Oh,

it's been a long time coming. Two of the world's greatest.
America's sweethearts.

I know this isn't the point, but what is this outfit, Andy?

And my hair

sucks. Yeah, your hair definitely sucks.
I actually remember being like, uh-oh, on the set, like, what happened?

Why do I look like I'm like...

Why is the top of your hair shorter than the sides?

I feel like you guys always agree about Andy's hair. I feel like

Kev is always very good at being like, no, he's not going to like that. Yeah, but I don't know what happened to him.
I mean, it looks like how

the fourth dude in a rock band in the 70s when they first invented music videos. Yeah, he's like the bassisty guy.

Like, who's that guy doing harmonies in the way back with the hair that's all flat in the middle and fuzzy on the sides? On the sides.

Yeah, yeah.

Even Frank Stallone.

Ooh. Yeah.
And then, I mean, I know skinny ties were popular at the moment, but there's something about it coming with this sparkly tuxedo jacket.

And red gloves. Yeah, the red gloves are a killer.
Now, the other thing that, especially now that you know what's coming, the amount, just in the beginning, Keenan is in the background, going,

immediately perfect.

We don't know who you're supposed to be yet. I remember singing it, and you guys were like, Yeah, no, keep it.
It's fine.

And we were, and we were right.

Well, we had already seen you do it. Like,

it was a fully formed character. So good.

Although the character just said, fiddle-faddle, and

Reba.

She wasn't singing. Okay.

America's sweetheart, Miss Reba McIntyre. Yeah, how you doing, Andy? We're about to take it to the top.

Confirming you are Andy. You are not a character.

Even though you're dressed insanely,

that's you dressed like something. She's having a great time, too.
She's into it already.

Also, there's a real, like while we were joking about like the auditioning for Elvis or auditioning for Ray Charles and knowing you're not going to get it.

Other than who you are and how you look, it's a fantastic Reba. Like you're dancing exactly the way Reba would dance if she was in a hip-hop video.
No, it's like, it's like Reba having fun.

That's the thing about watching it is I, because eventually we're going to get to a turn. I kind of am with Andy through the first half of the song where I also believe it's Reba.

It's just, so crazy. So you're just like, all right, let's go with it, I guess.
How many seconds into it are we? 17. 17 seconds right now, but we're deep into it.

I mean, Reba came in around 10 seconds. Also, there's five seconds of digital shorts.
So

we're 12 seconds in. What is this on your person right here? Can you see what my mouse is looking at? I feel like it's a brooch of some sort.
But it's very, yeah, it's very low. Yeah.
A low brooch.

Classic Reba low brooch. That buckle, maybe? Oh, it's

hanging off of a belt. Yeah.
Yeah, I think it's like a chunky buckle.

Hit him Reba. Haters in the face try to keep me down.
But you know we keep on shining.

You take the first verse. Tell me.

This is catching me off guard right away.

Andy's just setting you up and being like, all right, take it. And she's right away in just classic Reba language talking about haters in her face.

You're basically getting a laugh just off the beat dropping. Just that it's it's going to happen.

Yeah, and we're in, all right, we're in some sort of a barn having a hotel. Hey, Bales.
All right, so you know she's country. So we go from Andy's world, which is pop,

right to Reba's world for her, for her verse.

Okay, so it's still a version of intro.

Two crazy big stars from opposite worlds.

The deepest voice Reba anybody has ever done. Yeah.

But everything so far is this is what, this is how these songs would go. Look at these cowboys and cowgirls you have, and you're wearing your little crown.
Queen of country. Yeah.
Oh, oh, yeah.

They're worshiping her at her country throne.

He's just elated. It's when we're starting to build up our hatred of Andy.
We're like, yeah,

it would be great to see what happens to this guy.

He's a comedy prince. Making something out of nothing.

I mean, that's kind of what's happening. I think this freeze frame, this is covering the looks by

talking about. Yeah, that's that's fiddle fettle face right there.

I really, I'm just saying there's they're making the Reba movie and the casting. There's one person in the casting room who's like, I know we're not going to do it.
Oh my gosh.

Keenan was the best one. Yeah.
Captured her spirit and her essence, which is more what it's about than just superficial things.

It goes right past Andy like he doesn't is the branded response. I don't think anyone's going to judge it.
No one's going to judge that. He's 35 seconds in.

And also, as usual, so we've established you guys have just met. And yet we're also,

this is the huge. Yeah.
That's the baseline for me and Reebs.

The blowing past it with a no doubt is

with a proud no doubt as if he just said, like, we end up flexing on everybody. No doubt.
That basically is saying, you didn't hear what you just thought you heard.

No doubt.

I love that.

It's got the Reba logo

on the door. So we're really, we're at CBS.
We're at first.

Oh.

pumping on Chiba. What?

Andy walks in.

Keenan looks over, Smoke of Weed, and just gives this look of just like, oh, oh,

I got a fish on the line. Yeah.

Andy, you're wearing a Reba shirt.

Clearly a big fan. Right.
Which I am. Yep.
The Reba logo from the sitcom's on the wall. We got Reba's feather boa hanging over here.
We know where we are. Believable Reba dresses on the rack.
Yep.

A lot of sequence. Attention to Diets.
So far, she's still Reba.

What do we have here? Is that her?

Oh, well, hello there. Are you here?

First line says, prove it.

Said I was a fan. She said, prove it.
Dropped her denim skirt. And Seth hoped to it.
Middle honey. More black with kids banging on the door.
Oh no, it's all children.

Your autograph. It escalates so fast.
Oh, I just love how you never change tones, Andy. You're just like, yo,

that happened, and then this happened. The retelling.
It's all brass.

Also, I like that Reba is the one who always heightens how dirty it is. Immediately.
Like, you say you made love, and Reba wants to make sure it's more like we're. More like we fucked.
Oh, my God.

Hop to it. Bunch of kids who are trying to get Reba's autograph, but they're not answering the door for a a lot of obvious reasons.
Now, kids, drop a skirt, said

that joint hanging out of your mouth.

Oh my god. What the hell? Oh my god.
Yeah, not okay. On so Reba.

Now I'm even more confused. Because are you, Reba? Reba can't say any of this stuff.
stuff.

It starts to spiral so harsh.

And Andy's been so respectful about Reba and now her pussy's the bum.

Yeah, well, facts is facts. And then,

yeah, then Reba wants to really hammer that home and echo. I think I was always really proud when we got lines like that onto SNL of saying like, your pussy's the bum.

That's not like a usual thing you hear on SNL. No, that shouldn't be on

the national broadcasting now.

No. That kicked down a lot of current doors.

So I stay on my grind and drop these hits. Cause I can't go back to stripping.
Reba. So undercover free.
And you're my best friend, but I ran out. Suck in, and I'm Reba.
Yeah.

What was this little cutaway? Just being dragged into a bathroom stall to do some. Yeah, it was just like how many times they make love.
Yeah. Yeah, they can't keep their hands off each other.

But then it's weird. Now, I've said that Reba keeps me get dirtier, but then you say you're my undercover, what is it? Freak.
Freak. You're my undercover freak.

And then Reba says, and you're my best friend. Yeah,

she's sweeter now. Yeah, man.

It's continually pulling the rug out in front of you. So confused.
Also, Reba used to strip, I guess.

That's right,'cause I'm a city boy and I'm a country girl, and I'll never leave your sweet balls blue.

So it takes a little side to be like a

country mouse and city mouse. Exactly.

Just making it really wholesome. Also, it is really fun that you guys have referenced back to a sketch nobody saw and just had Keenan say, I'm Reba in the middle of the scene.

You had to get it in there. You knew it was her catchphrase.
That's the catchphrase. When you hear a good catchphrase, you know it.
And her show is called Reba.

Oh, but I love that. That was like a whole other.
It's funny. When I see the title of it, I just read Reba.
Yeah. You're wrong.
Explain

you're reading it wrong. You're just flat-out mispronouncing it.
The fact that this took a two-line just journey into a lifetime movie entire plot about

City Boy. Like they have a fantasy version of themselves that they are letting us know we're sharing.
And their families don't approve.

So now it's like a real, oh my god, are they gonna end up together? Yeah, they're star-crossed lovers.

It's as old as Romeo and Juliet. You definitely think that that's the story that you're gonna be following now.
Yeah.

got just what I need with big broad shoulders and a red-ass weed and a penis.

I don't know if I've ever seen Lauren laugh more at something we made in our entire time there. Not really.

Than that moment at dress rehearsal when he, because he didn't know what we were doing all week, of course.

I'm sure he gets whispers of like, oh, they're doing something keen in with the Reap, but I've not seen anything. He's watching Cold, like usual.

And that line, it just killed as hard as I've seen anything kill with Lauren. Yeah.
Is that the first time we admit that we're actually breaking it? That we know that I'm dude, kind of thing.

Yeah, that is the first moment. That's definitely the moment.
Halfway through. And then we slowly fill in the rest of the information.
You've recently said your pussy's the bomb. Right.
Right.

Well, it's. Yeah, you're kind of, you're kind of, you know, changing course on that.
It's an incredible feat of writing that the turn was admitting the thing we all knew from the beginning.

Like you actually, you built a willing suspension of disbelief and then had the main character be like, come on. No, it's the first thing.

No, it's the first thing.

Oh, it's so nice that it's in a side as well. Like, maybe Andy didn't hear that.

Well, Andy doesn't hear anything. No, nothing changes Andy's at all.
By the way, the character Andy.

Right. With the one with flat hair on the top and big poofy hair on side.
Oh, my God. I got a sense that everyone will just think it's me because he calls me Andy at the beginning and I I work at SNL.

The Frank Stallone type.

Never considered myself a prince of cabrio.

And a penis.

Damn, she fly. All she wanted to was fuck me.
I'm a lucky guy. I'm a guy, too.
My friends think I should dump her. They say she's a man who found a wig and a dumpster.

Your friends are smart, not reefs, they're just jealous. Cause I'm dating a star instead of hanging with the fellas.
Hanging like my nuts.

Look at the swing.

I remember being so happy about this, the progression of all of those last lines. All of them.

Hang on, like my nuts. That's a second reveal.
It's another reveal that he has nuts, I guess. We knew about the penis now, but.
Oh, my God, too. But the nuts.

And then, well, because now it seems like... Your dance move with it is all time.
It's unbelievable.

I feel like right now, Kenan's character is really trying to tell Andy, and he's just realized Andy's not going to listen.

Your friends are smart. Your friends are smart is maybe the line I think resonates the most with me.

And he's still going to deny it. Oh, God.
It's just so funny if you like said to a girl, like, none of my friends think you're right for me. The person says your friends are smart.

No, Reeves are just jealous. Yeah, he's still going to deny it.
I just want to point out one little small thing, though, before we move on. This is that we're watching on the SNL's YouTube post.

SNL Digital Short, Two Worlds Collide, featuring Reba McIntosh. It's one of my favorite names.
That's so, that is not okay. Just not featuring Reba McIntosh.

Maybe you could say featuring Reba.

That's really great.

Word up. They're just liars.
They can't pull me back to pull Reba McIntyre.

You said word up, too.

You agree. You're like, yeah, they're just liars.

They're just liars.

Not taking in any information. No, you are not agreeing.
You're like, yeah, the opposite of what you said. Well, I mean, the character Andy in this situation is just so gassed on being with a celeb.

Yeah. Yeah.
An equally big star. Equally big.
But from a different world.

Now there's this real great tone shift where who we have been led to believe is Reba just tells us their story. Yeah, that's right.

And I like that it goes back to the day of their birth, which is the other line I think of all the time.

Ever since I came on my mama's, but you knew I was there for greatness. Yes, I looked in the doctor and saw a

Another great dancer.

There's a lot to talk about, so feel free to go back. But this is the most you've ever looked like a Muppet in your whole life.

You can picture the puppeteer's hand, like doing your head with the floppy Muppet hair on top.

Like,

it's a fucking performance for the Ask. You're strolling to 30 Rock dance.
Oh, my God. It makes me laugh.
Can I ask Yorma, is ever since I came out my mom's butt a Yorm line? No,

I don't know where that came from.

I'm still bad at guessing who wrote which line. It's either Keeve or Yorm.
I think it might have been me, guys. Yeah, I think it was Keeve.
My mom was butt. I knew I was destined for greatness.

So now we've switched. We now are getting the backstory.
This is the Rashabun. Yeah.
I love this first shot, sitting on a haybale all alone.

Yeah, it's majestic. Looking up

at a pool of of moonlight i assume above you just

remembering the past

and no i really like that there's no moment where andy feels embarrassed or keenan feels ashamed of what he's done everything here is just like real positive that's right yeah well i mean everyone's getting what they want yeah

now there is a thing that's another layer of it that's weird which is i'm playing me then we see keenan who is clearly Keenan, but he's playing a crazy man.

I mean, crazy is a loaded word, but you know what I mean. He's like a guy wandering around digging up wigs out of dumpsters.
Yeah, it's pretty crazy. Yeah, it's pretty great.

Is this the greatness he was destined for? He was, he goes straight from my

greatness. I looked in a dumpster.

Such a hard turn from greatness to taking a new story. Also, he kind of looks around like you're not allowed to take a wig out of a dumpster.
He just can't believe he's found such a treasure.

He's like, somebody's going to miss this. Did you guys know that this was in here? Is this okay?

In case there's any confusion, it's your full name, and we're at 30 Rock in front of the NBC sign.

Andy, you're performing walking up and just like, just so earnestly stupid. Just like, oh my God, you're Reba McIntyre.
Like,

dumb as opposed. Wait, let's check out if your hair is Andy here again.
Hold on, I got to get to the shot of you. You're from the front.

It's still not very Andy, though. You still were like, come at all forward in a weird way.

I was dealing with a bad haircut. It's my one big regret about Reba.
Yeah.

The short.

I believe this is your clothes, though, not wardrobe, but maybe it is. Yeah, I think that is.

I feel like I recognize the yellow shirt. Those are your clothes.
Those are my clothes. So this is really you, just to be clear.
Yeah.

But, you know, this is the character keenan was playing's perspective on what happened different from meeting backstage at the reba show yeah right

eye contact is just like real strong right there

yeah

i saw ali sandberg and he thought i was reba and i made him suck my dirt and

bug bug bug bug and fucking him him reiterating s and l is just like geez so exciting dirty rock s SNL.

An incredible amount of restraint that you guys were, you know, three or four years into your time before you rhymed 30 Rock with Dirty Cock.

Thank you.

Restraint.

You got to build to that kind of thing. The audience was ready.

You got to earn that.

How did they respond? Let's listen. How does the audience respond to that?

From haystacks to Mayfax, our love will

There's that one sad, there's that one kind of like really pathetic shot of leading Andy away and it seems like you're like Lenny from of Mice and Man. Yeah.

You're putting your hand on his back like

taking him behind the barn to put a bullet in his head. And do we think the look back is the character Andy realizing that that's kind of a little stronger than Reba might be?

Yeah, there's something.

Yeah, there's something. It's not going to stop him, but he is a little like, whoa, that's

a little funny. Like, from what I know of Reba, and I know a lot, as has been established, big hand.
That feels like a firm big hand on my back.

Also, Reba, real pushy. Yeah.
Like,

you're not the aggressor in this flirtation. Yeah, we need to go somewhere alone right now.
On the dance move, too, I get whiffed a little bit there. Yeah, you're a little, you're getting spun.
Yeah.

You're like, whoa,

getting yanked back.

So, yeah.

Oh, man. Wow.
I like hearing that that was one of the tops for you, Seth. I love it so much.
It's perfect. Everything about it is perfect.

And then maybe my favorite thing about it is that Reba loved it. Yes, that was thrilling.
Keenan then dressed as Reba and appeared on stage with Reba at the Country Music Awards. Yep, the MAs.

And I just have always adored that about Reba that she saw that and was like, well, heck, isn't that a good time? She was like, yes, please.

It is literally the craziest impression, I think, on the planet.

It is such a stretch, such a stretch. Wait, how was she at the CMA? It's like, was that a fun

great, like, she welcomed me? Like, she was arm in arm with me, and she was showing me around backstage to like very conservative type people, you know.

Like one of the country singer dudes, I forget his name, but he's like six foot nine or something. Like, was it print something, something?

Um, but he was like, Oh, yeah, that's that's pretty funny. Look at that,

you got something too, man. You got doing something funny.

Oh my God, these pictures of me back-to-back with her, yeah,

and these emerald gowns. What a what a treat that she was so cool about it.
And so

great, yeah, she's so cool about it. Yeah, and did you go in and write what you guys did for the presenting, or was it something how did it come about?

I think they just called and were like, We want you to just do a presenting this thing with Reba real quick.

And I don't think I did much of the writing necessarily because it was pretty straightforward. What the joke was.
Yes. I'm sure it was a lot of Reba being like, now hold on there.
I'm Reba. Yeah.

Now, wait a minute.

Who's really? You can't tell.

So it wasn't right away because the short, the week we're on on the show, I'm looking here, is November 21st, 2009. And the CMT Music Awards at the Bridgestone Arena were June 9th, 2010.

So it stuck with her. She was like, Yeah, I know what I'm gonna do.
We're like seven months later. Yeah, it echoed

because it was just the craziest thing ever. I remember Ariana Grande was like, when I first really spent time with her, she was like, I love that Reba sketch.

Bless her heart. That's amazing.
Thank you guys for those laughs. Because, man, what a blast from the past that was.
That was a treat to revisit. Going again about Lauren's laugh.

Afterwards, the love I got from Lauren for the whole thing was, I think, the most of any short we ever did. Wow.
Like, like at the after party, like coming up, be like, that one.

And even, and I think the same goes for people like Higgins and stuff.

People that don't give it up that easily were giving it up in a way that they did not give it up for, as I mentioned on like the I'm in a boat episode, where it was kind of like, oh, yeah, nice work.

This was like a, no, no, no, this is the one. This is the funniest one.
Wow. And that probably includes you, Seth, honestly, because you loved it.
Well, it's, it, first of all, it's a banger.

It's super catchy. It's a great song.
There's so much comedy as well that never gets in the way of how good the music is. Sure.
And you just, I don't know. They just want to listen to it.

It's also, I'm going to say it not to make you uncomfortable, Keenan, but it's the power of Keenan. Yeah.

It's the, I think it's the only time that you are like fully front and center in one of our shorts in that way. And your, your power is great.
Oh, man. Thank you, man.
But

it wouldn't be nothing if you guys didn't pick it up off the fucking floor.

This is the line. I'm looking at the Reba for American Eagle sketch.

Oh, oh, I see. Here's a line.
Please join me in the fight to save the American Bald Eagle. You know, I'm married to a bald beagle, my husband, because he's a dog.

And then Ryan Reynolds said, Reba, I'm sorry, on these next ones, can you just stick to what's on the cards?

She had just volunteered that. She was riffing.
She was riffing in a PSA for the American Bald Eagle.

Can you see this line here? One more fist full of fiddle faddle and I'd be popping out of my spanks. But that's me.
I'm just Reva. I didn't want to make you do it in character.
I just wanted to.

The other thing, if I can sort of back up Andy's point, I also think Lauren, I think we all know Lauren fucking loves himself some Keenan. That's right.

And so I think for Lauren, it was Two Worlds Collide. It wasn't Andy and Reva, but it was like a digital short and Kenan.
I'm sure he was like, this is what I've been waiting for.

Those two worlds collide was true. He's like, this was my new body incline.
Oh, my gosh.

Haystacks to Maybachs is a genuinely great song. That is a good line.
A great line for a song about a hip-hop person and a country singer. Well, doing a.
Obviously, that was me. Fucking dope.

Pretty sure Beyonce says it on that last record she did. Oh, my God.
Don't even play. Heystacks to Maybachs.
That's how we, right, Jeff?

She would have said Maybachs to Haystacks, more to the trajectory, but yeah.

Oh my God. Maybacks were having a real moment.
Real moment. And music, really.
Yeah. Yeah.
People loved them. So, Jorm, how long you're in the bed for?

Well, the bummer part of this is that I can't move one of my legs. I can't bear weight on one of my legs for six weeks, and I can't bear weight on the other one for 12.

So I'm pretty fucked in terms of like when I can even start to walk again. But at six weeks, you could enter that

sack race.

Yes.

race the bad camera yeah you're talking about the big one right you're talking about the big one that happens the big sack race we've been talking about

i only like that andy because i saw it coming you saw you saw it with the the the urgency when you said in six weeks i was like

you saw my eyes start spinning like a well i well i actually have to say a three-legged race is probably what you meant right i call it a sack race yeah sack race you're just both legs uniquely hopping your sack and i wanted to also say you saw my eyes start spinning like a slot machine.

I didn't get anything out how I wanted.

I said a casino machine. Look at a casino machine.
I'm tired, man.

We missed a really... This is late for us.
This is a late one, guys. Jorm, I did a listen back and you had a really good joke that none of us, Keith and I both missed.

Jorm forgot, Jorm could not pull the name Elton John last week. Oh, man.
Oh, yes. You guys both missed it.
thought, I thought I was gonna get

a little bit more love, and then uh, he goes, Oh, I think he's friends with that guy who wrote Spare,

which is another neither of you guys commented.

I couldn't remember Elton John's name, that's equivalent to what I did yesterday on a podcast when I couldn't recall Moesha.

Oh, no.

And how did you describe the person to get there? I described it. I was like, what was Brandy's TV show called?

you know the one where she played a character named Moisha

what was the name of the guy in happy Gilmore

happy Gilmore got it

this is very close to a hot rod joke the song about the guy whose grandma got run over by a reindeer oh yeah yeah that's right

oh speaking of hot rod some congratulations are in order the hot rod suit went for 3x what uh the auction house thought it would go for right wow so so three bucks 18 grand. Oh my God.

Yeah, they thought it was going to be three to six grand. It went for 18 grand.
A lot of people commented, still not enough money to save Frank.

We got to get a picture of whoever got that. Wow.
That's a good joke.

And sadly, the shock of teeth, still no buyers. Oh, that's so fucking weird.
That's so weird that my... Keenan, you don't have to stay for us referring to previous episodes.

Yes, but that was the best visit of all time, Kenan.

No, it was lovely kenan you've done more than is required of you enough it was the best to see you it's so good to see you guys such a nice guest bye kenan we love you so much you're the best love you dude i love you guys too it's so good to see your faces and laughs you do buddy kisses love you love you bud later bye dude

I now

leave because I'm going to get on a wheelchair and go over to the other side of the room because I got to get a prop and then I'm going to bring it back here. So

we'll talk about

some word game stuff while you're gone. Yeah, we want to see more of the crafts.
Oh, yeah. This is a great.
Yeah, I did Quibby today. You did Quibby? That's good.
I did Quibby. Yeah, I did.

Guys, I didn't want to say while Jorm's on, but I I still don't know what the Spare musical joke is. I don't know what Spare is.
It was an old episode.

He couldn't remember

Prince Harry. Oh, and he wrote the book Spare.
He was like, Spare. He's the guy who wrote Spare.
And we were like, what? Yes, it was a Prince Harry repeat.

But I didn't remember that that was the book because I weirdly did. Yeah, it was weird.
I agree. When he said it, I was like, oh.
Also, you know.

When Yorm says something, you don't think it's a trenchant callback. But it was.
It was good. The audience, the Quaids got it.
Understand. The Quads got it.
I got it.

Sneaky gems. Oh, so that's a sneaky gem.
That's very good. Very good.
I laughed quite a bit listening to the episode I missed, by the way. Just very enjoyable.
Was it like hanging with us?

Like, like others? It was like hanging with you guys. I got the appeal.
Hey, wait, this might have been like, oh, we can't just brush past this.

Was this a little bit of a breakthrough moment? Another one? We're chipping away. I obviously really enjoyed busting on Yorim for not remembering Elton John.

I enjoyed Keeve calling you guys out on your hot takes about liking Hamilton

and

Book of Mormon.

It was such a fabrication.

Shit. When Keeve did that, I was like, oh, that is what we're doing.

Can I just say I actually loved it?

I know this is a control version. Okay, guys, I'm back.

So when we were talking about hot rod just now, I don't know how that came up, but we like to talk about it.

This is one of the gifts that I received. Oh, wow.
Oh,

my God. So it's a pillow, and we'll put it in the show notes or whatever, because thank you, whoever made this, because I don't know who made this.

But it is a redux of the painting that Frank is drawing of Rod, where he's getting humped from behind by a horse.

And instead, somebody removed the horse and put a ladder and removed Rod's face and put my face. So I'm getting humped by a ladder.
Yeah, wearing the hot rod suit that you've been wanting.

And then it says, and it says, I'm an idiot, which is

exactly apropos. Also, the background is Starry Night, which I believe it is in the pop.
That's for no reason. We were like, make it Starry Night.
It's really good. It's really good.
Not just Frank's.

Well, it's because he's a good artist.

Hey, there was a secret MVP in the last episode

who I had to text today to say it was the highlight of my week. The Liz Kukowski ad read.
Oh, God. I enlisted her for Viori because we got some Viori stuff for her.
It's really good, Keeve.

It's so funny and so good. I skipped the ads.
ads now. I don't know what I'm missing.
Oh, God.

Keeve,

it's like Stiller and Mira. When Liz gets on, I'm a little bit like, are we funny? The grumpy husband and the wife

who's being sunshiny and doing good jokes. She's being really perky and like thanking Viore for the good stuff.

And every time she references, like tries to get a response from Keeve, he's like, yeah, man, I guess so.

Really flat.

It's like he can't get her off.

I don't don't know if I feel like it comes across, but I recorded it on my back. Like we're, you know, clothing on, but like we were just laying in a bed.

And I was like, oh, shit, we forgot to do a Vioread. Let's just do it into our phone.
And I just got out voice notes on the phone. I'm just holding it like this.
I'm like, uh-huh.

You can like hear that there's no air coming out of my blood.

And she like sat up and he's like, I love it. Bah, what? And I'm like, uh-huh.
Cool.

She at the end says, you know what you say at the end of a commercial about tennis? And Keeva goes, what? She She goes, add out. Oh, yeah.
And Keeve goes, I don't get it.

I don't understand enough about tennis to get it.

It's a good joke. It's shit all over.
She goes, it's clever. She does yell, it's clever.
Oh,

not to throw a little shade, but you know, last week, Jeff jumped on to basically defend himself over how bad your audio was, Keeve, on that voice note. Yep.

And a bunch of our listeners just wanted to point out, and I would like Jeff to hear it, that his audio was super shitty when he started. Yeah, even when he came on.

He might not know what audio is supposed to sound like.

That might be the guy who runs which is what you want in a podcast guy.

Look, we got him for rock-bottom prices. We're thrilled.

For what we got him for, we're thrilled. We're thrilled.
Hey, Andy, have you played Pips? Everybody wants to know if you're playing Pips, the new New York City. I have played Pips.

I'm letting everyone know right now.

I'm not going to be doing Pips.

I'm not a number game guy. No, that's not what I got into this for.
I'm in the WGA, not the math GA. You know what I mean?

Good.

I did pips once.

I'll do pips on easy, like if I'm out of shit and I'm like, I can't fall asleep. Right, right, right.
Yeah. Like, at medium pips, I'm already immediately mad.

I spent one day, one day I delved into pips and I did all three levels and I was like, that took me entirely too long. It's not satisfying.

I already have all these fucking other ones to do that I have to do legally. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. For your sponsorship.
Legally. Oh, no.
Yeah. But I did get Queen Beauty, and Seth didn't.
No.

He had to use hints. Also, two days ago, I tell Andy what words I miss the next day.
Yeah. And two days ago, I missed the word vagina.

And I wrote to Andy,

I missed vagina yesterday. Spare me your jokes.
And he wrote, just yesterday?

Yeah.

I missed vagina yesterday. Just yesterday?

That's classy. There's so many ways to go with it.

By the way, I miss vagina.

I'll set them up, knock them down, kind of. I think I'm just like a little too highbrow.
I miss vagina all the time.

You know which other word I miss all the time, which I kind of can't believe, based on the words they don't accept, that dildo. Dildo, yeah.
Like, I feel like dildo's in like every other bee.

I was texting with Rob Klein's wife, Lucy, because she does the bee as well. And we were both pretty ticked off today that they didn't accept pee hole or poop hole.
Yeah.

There was a not, there were a couple ones that. I mean, those are not words, but it was still infuriating.
Yeah. You look, you're, I mean, because again, we're doing it to have fun.

I mean, they're probably just hyphen words. Hyphenated.
Yeah, that's true.

What was the other one? There was something else today. Now I'm looking at it to see something else that made me mad.
Oh, like piggy. I feel like P-I-G-G-I-E.
Come on. Agreed.
That's not a word? No.

I tried it. Oh, you're going to just enjoy this, Andy.
So I was doing a Q ⁇ A with my audience, which I do every night. Yeah.

And the questions were just based on the world we're living in, a little dark. Okay.

And I was being earnest in my answers. And then this very friendly face woman raised her hand.
She goes, I just want to switch things up with a fun question. I go, oh my God, thank you so much.

She goes, Do you have any pets? And it's like, was it a joke? It was not a joke. And like, that's great.

That's great.

Half the audience. That's great.
Half the audience gasp.

And then it was so fun to explain to this woman: I go, I am so sorry about what I'm gonna tell you asked the perfect question

with the perfect do I have any pets

a lot of people have been sending in merch ideas and I want to show you this one oh hey did we get a did we get a response on like best shirt that I could design what do you guys think of this one can you see this hand oh nice oh it's frisbee's bones holding a frisbee frisbee holding a frisbee that says quate Army.

It's a little, but I did enjoy it. It's pretty good.
I feel like if we're going to go dark with Frisbee, we could go like metal dark.

Yeah, if people give us, if people give us a design, I know that that's a little like

taboo in the design world to get free designs from people. Right.
We did have a lot of people not...

That was somebody who made the designs. There's a lot of people.

A lot of people who were just like, hey, maybe something like this.

A lot of people were like an Andy-faced quado coming out of the stomach of the t-shirt. These are ideas for t-shirts.
An Andy-faced quado.

If it's Andy and then the quado coming out of Andy's stomach is Frisbee, that'd be interesting to see. Oh, see, now that's something I'd be interested in seeing.
Okay. That's interesting.

So Andy's all dead-eyed because he's gone dark because the quado is taking his life energy when it's out, right? Yeah, right. He's just, he's just the vessel.
You're saying in the design.

I thought you were describing me at present. And I was like, no, he'll just be like asleep on the couch or something.
And then there's a Frisbee talking with a cement and a molson, obviously.

Can I ask you guys a question?

How many of you guys have peed into your urinal during this Zoom?

Did you do it during? Yeah, just now. I just did it on the

congratulations. Thanks for showing us the piss, also.
That's great. Well, because I didn't want you to think I was a liar.

Again, we, this is, let's be honest, this is a kind of a deep-cut podcast, and I feel like the people who listen to it listen to it all, which is great.

And a lot of the ideas for t-shirts are so deep-cut that they made me really laugh. Like, someone just said, here's an idea.
On the job with psychedelic wavy letters. Oh, I like that.

Ask me if I quibbied.

Yeah.

Love. Yeah, these are good.
Like it's this really, these are really

but they're wearable. Those are more wearable than like disgusting graphics.
All caps Yormthorn with a rose on it.

Yormthorn.

Wait, I have a pitch. Yeah.
I have a pitch. Two targets over each, like where the nipples would be, and it says, hit us in the tennis.

Gotcha. Yeah.
And then people might hit you while you wear the shirt. Yeah.
I mean, that's their prerogative.

Oh, someone just said, I don't know what's on the front, but I think the back should have a big image of Jack Quaid cooking up mac and cheese

with a voice bubble that says, hey, Quaid, what you cooking?

I know no one really care about this, but on the job, we would have to cut in Joanna and both of her siblings because that's the job

obsessions from them.

I'd wear a t-shirt that's just a mug that says mugless on it. I think that would be a real conversation starter.
Yeah.

And another one that I'd wear is a goose saying not a gunk.

Not a gunk. Love that one.
Oh, and this one, this one took me a second, but I realized a t-shirt that says it 15, what at 15, which is, it is what it is. Oh, the 15 for my wedding anniversary.

Oh my God.

God, these are good. They're really good.
Reminding me of all our fun goofs. I'd love for everybody to be wearing a shirt based on my wedding anniversary.

Your love of love. Wait,

did we get consensus on like a shirt? Because look, all I've got is time, guys.

So if there's a shirt I can design and there's consensus, I'll start tomorrow. I mean,

take your pick. You just heard a bunch of good ones.

Wait, hold on. Uh-oh.
As Jeff says, a Google form with like 40 ideas. Okay, so I just have to look at those 20 ideas.
Those are, I was kind of

reading off of those. There it is.
Okay, gotcha. Oh, remember Edie, the girl who called in with a great voice note?

Somebody said, oh, I think the last time she called in was to say Ross Trend is her favorite song because her dad is bald.

And also, she was mad because she wasn't allowed to sing Sushi Glory Hole at school. So she's a real one.
Doubt it, guys. Yeah.
Old-timer. We didn't doubt it.
We did doubt it.

Wait, somebody said, Did Frisbee actually die or did they finally just check her for a heartbeat? That dog looked like it died years ago.

And in the meantime, her body was being possessed by the ghost of Shelly Duvall. Oh, pretty good.
Fucking hell. That's just me.
That's my comrade, whoever wrote that.

Someone said, I feel like a real eagle-eared cherry. Yeah, that's great.
Because I, at the end of Palm Springs, when a character said, what the fuck are you doing in our pool?

I knew right away it was Akiva. But then someone else wrote, it's not Akiva.
No, it's me. It's Akiva.
It is you. Okay.
Yeah. First guy is an eagle-eared cherry.

I'm not the person in the shot, but it is my voice. So they really were an eagle-eared cherry.
They were. That's amazing.
It's off-camera.

Like, so the actors that I believe was just our producer. You hear it first, and then there's the reveal.
And then you reveal that it's a family standing there.

So the line is not attached to someone's face. And we just needed one.

And I did it into a mic in our office while I was, because I was editing that scene myself like 20 different ways because the ending of that movie is a tightrope, you know, if we ever do a Palm Springs app, which we probably should, but it's a tight, a tightrope of trying to leave the audience a specific way.

Yeah, we workshopped it a lot. Yeah, where they're happy and feel satisfied, but also it leaves some things open-ended and it's not too pat, et cetera.

And so I did that as temp, and Andy never replaced it. It's because it worked.

Shout out real quick to Kristen Miliatti on her Emmy Win. Yeah, Emmy Winner.
That's pretty cool. Also, I just heard somebody posted it, rest in peace, Robert Redford.
Yeah, that's very sad.

Someone posted a podcast clip of you and Miliati. I guess you were at Sundance.
Oh, yes. And

Andy is basically saying to the podcast host, if I saw Robert Redford in person, I'd shit my pants. And then he walks in.
He walked in.

And it's really like a fantastic radio play because, again, you never see

or hear Robert Redford, but your reaction is so fucking. We were seeing him.

I mean, he was, it's the funniest thing is if you could have seen it, he was like four or five feet away from us while we were talking about him on the podcast, but he didn't.

Wait, Andy, is your reaction like a dirty rutton scoundrel's kind of like low? Like, I'm freaking out. I mean, it's fucking Robert Everett.

He's such a legend, and we're like at Sundance, and it's his whole thing, you know.

It was cool, it was really cool to just even be in the same room. It's uh, it was fantastic.
There was another thing, Andy, and I meant to write you. I'm getting a lot of Andy content on my short-form

digital platforms. Uh, you did that uh

writing a caption for the New York Times cartoon contest. Oh, yeah, I did.
It really made me laugh. Did it? I was so fucking sleepy that I walked away being like.
Those are hard.

And it was really, it landed for me really well. What's the competition? Like, how's it going? It's not.

They basically, you know, the back of the New Yorker used to have like a cartoon with no caption. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do they not do that anymore? I don't know. No, they do.

I still read The New Yorker, but not in the hard copy anymore. But they basically showed Andy a cartoon and he had to to like talk through his thought process of coming up with a caption for it.

And it was really funny.

It's a series they do online of like people who are, if you're doing the press tour, that's like a stop you can make where you have to kind of, he stands at a little easel and they present you with one and you kind of have to think out loud and walk the audience through your thought process.

I saw a YouTube comment because I was looking through him over the last five minutes that is about Liz's thing. I'll just read it.
It says, unlike Yorm, Keeve's wife is a Big Pun fan. Right.

Like Big Pun the rapper. And he capitalized it.
That's a pretty good comment. Somebody said we should call our next Q ⁇ A QA Q ⁇ A because it's a Quaid Army Q ⁇ A.
So it's a QA Q ⁇ A.

QA Q ⁇ A, QA, Q ⁇ A, QAnon, because there are little secret codes in most of the pods. Yeah.

And before we started rolling, Keeve, you were saying that you think the QAnon is actually pretty on point. I mean,

catch me every day saying that. Catch me outside.
Remember that? Oh, my God. That was wild.
Bad Barbie.

She's still around. Actually, yeah, I spun it into pretty lucrative career is what I'm reading on Yahoo News.

Hey, look, it's, you guys, I'm just now going to tell our listeners it's Friday night for us East Coasters. It's getting a little late.
Yeah. Seth, I wish we were in the same place right now.

We could just meet at a bar and have one. Wouldn't that be a sound? It would be a...
I can't do that because of my legs because I can't leave the room.

I don't think you're supposed to mix alcohol with whatever else they're giving you. Well, no, but I just am saying I couldn't even.
But you could like limp over in six weeks.

Yeah.

And like a sack race. If there was like a sack race that got me there.

I don't know where you are, Seth, but just in general, you two have never lived closer. That's true.
Me and Jorn. That's true.
Podcast.

I feel like we brushed past that I got Queen Bee. Do people want to circle back?

That's a good re-entry into actually the podcast.

Guys, for those who didn't hear what we were just doing we made each other laugh me till i had a little bit of tears in my eyes and it's all stuff that can't be said publicly even when andy wants dim clicks damn

clicks it would get it but at what cost andy like honestly andy if we don't put this in about you reiterating that you got queen b i would love to hear if other people like did you hear that they didn't they just kind of like rode roughshot over him talking about queen bee like that's so up like yeah they might be they might be sad for andy that's true yeah he could get some of the love that i have Andy, the hardest word today on Queen Bee was logo file.

Did you get it right away or was it right near the end?

I got it pretty early just because I've done a lot of them. Yeah.
Logo file as a single word. Yeah.
Now I'm impressed. He's pretty good.
Is it logophile, though? How's it pronounced?

No, I think the way you said it's better. Logophile.
Great. By the way, they introduced badges.
into the New York Times games now. So there's like, did you get Pangram first? Oh, wow.

And I'm fucking hooked. It immediately worked on me.
I'm like, I'll for sure spend 10 extra minutes on this getting the Pangram first. So I can get my badge.
To get your pretend badge.

Yeah, I gotta get my badge. That's taking me back to my Angry Birds two days.
How about for the 100th episode of the pod? We'll get you a physical sash, like a like a Boy Scout sash.

Does it say Queen Bee or Quibi? Yeah. A lot of people said like another good logo for our podcast would be like the Queen Bee B with the letters for like lonely on it.

Well, I will say that that's better than like four quados. Like, cause every time I think about quatto on a shirt, I like it.
It doesn't sound appealing to me. Yeah.
No, it's gross.

Anything too graphic is not what we actually want. No.
I think that's why I think the real subtle ones, like

somebody said directed by Douglas Bubble Trousers, just in sort of like... I kind of like that one, too.
Like credit script.

Maybe for the hundredth, I'll quit. Spelling B.

Oh, I thought you were going to quit the podcast.

Yeah, I think you were done with that. Oh, fuck, that would have been better.
Let me take it again. Maybe for the hundredth, I'll quit.

Do you think you could quit spelling beef? You haven't presented as a man. I think it would help my productivity in life.

He has a history of this, as he mentioned, and we've talked about before with Angry Birds 2 was a huge part of his life, like Time Suck. Yeah.

To the point where he had to quit it much the way someone would quit drinking. Yes.
Or even drugs. Sure.
Yeah.

Andy, you were big in a brick breaker too, right? Like,

you kind of always pick a game, right? I was not in a wait on the fucking BlackBerry. Yeah, on the back of the game on BlackBerry, was it Brickbreaker? Brickbreaker, yeah.

Yeah, I was into Brickbreaker.

You had a real like a bunch of people. I was like, no, yarn, you fucking dropped up the tick.
Oh, no, right. You were right.
It was exactly that. For years, actually.

Oh, I had a major problem.

Man, man, man, man. That's my beige, man.
I fully backpedal man.

And by the way, sorry about your back, brother.

And pedalbit and pelvis and pedal by.

Whatever you got going on. Anyway, so should I quit? Hit us in the chinas.

So wait, so your new character is Pelvis Esley. That's my new character? Pelvis Esley? Yes, Pelvis Wresley.
Pelvis.

Pelvis Wresley. Yeah.
Andy, any roses follow-up you want to do today? Any roses press?

No.

Okay.

Great. People like it.
People like the movie. People like it.
I'm getting a lot of love on it. I'm so sad I haven't seen it yet.
I'm so excited to see it.

I can't see it because I can't go to the movies. Well, you know, you're not supposed to say this, but it'll be on demand soon.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Did we talk about that Keeve crossed a hundo?

You crossed a hundo? Yes, Bruv. Yes, Bruv.
Wow, bro. Hundo.
Is that 101-something million worldwide? Can't tell you how excited I was to see it happen.

I'm the box office guy for Keeve. Yeah.

But I started checking after we all talked about it. It's exciting, man.
Honestly, it did feel good to cross 100 mil. Yeah.
It's on demand now. I don't know if we've talked about that.

You can rent it or buy it for a while. And then

eventually it also will be on one of the many great services. I'm guessing Paramount Plus, home of Digman.
Hey, Digman. Hey, check out that Digman.
So, Keith, what's it like to have $100 million?

It's so great. But it did change.
It's just as good as we thought. I told you guys I'm a word guy.
I'm not a number guy. You said you weren't in the math GA.
Yes. That's what I said.

If I had said, I told you guys, I'm not in the Math GA.

Hey,

we watched it. I had my fantasy football draft weekend, me and a bunch of college guys, and we watched Naked Gun and loved it.
I saw it, obviously. It was my third time through, and it's the best.

That's awesome. Thank you for your contribution.
Sorry, he was talking about the original, Keith. He was talking about the original.
I'm so excited about that. It was actually the second.

It was Naked Gun, 33 and a third. 33 and a third.

33 and a third. 33 and third.
So nostalgia.

Yorm, your drugs tailing off. How you doing, bud? I got to get re-upped pretty soon here, and then I'll hopefully pass it.
What kind of stuff are they giving?

Well, my new thing is, guys, if you really want to hear about it, is that I have crazy nerve pain in my feet. Oh, that sucks.

And what happened was that everybody, I was very concerned with it because it's basically like both of my feet feel like they're being dipped in lava.

And then, this is on Sunday when this happened. And I luckily, because on Sundays here or any hospital, it feels very shift-changey sort of thing.
So I was getting no traction on any information.

So luckily, I had my

surgeon's number because he's a fool and gave it to me. And I texted him and I was like, Hey, this is happening.
And he was like, Oh, that's a good sign. Oh, good.

If it hurts, then the nerves are coming back on less. That's great.
I was like, Oh, good. So the burning, the horrible burning is good.

That is great to hear, though. Yeah.
I mean, what a relief. Oh, I was so scared before that.
But yeah, Jorm. With apologies to Paris Hilton, that's hot.

No problem. I don't take that anytime.
I've never seen Seth more unhappy.

I'm going to take that to bed tonight.

My burning feet, with my lava feet, I'm going to be like, yeah, I remember when Andy said that hot comment.

Damn it. First time that I've ever genuinely wished we had video for this, Seth.
I've never seen Seth more disappointed in me, and that's saying a lot.

He's just like, I will say, I will say, I had a real like, oh, that, oh.

Andy, I'm going to give you a quiz now.

What do Paris, Hilton, and Matthew Matthew McConaughey say when they're together?

All right, all right, all hot.

Am I close? It's another one of her. No,

it might be too deep of a Paris Hilton reference for you to know. It already is if it's not, it's hot.
It just keeps sliving. Oh, slivving.
She says slivving a lot.

I was looking for hottie and the naughty. Yeah.
Was that her? That was her. I think so, yeah.
Was it her? I'm not sure. Yeah, it was.
Yeah, she was the hottie. And right here.

Yeah, and the other one was the naughty. Hi, Liz.
Do you need some? You're getting a lot of love for your Viori ad. Oh, my God, Liz.
Oh, you're going out. I'm going out.

Oh, tell her that's great for her. I can't go out.

Oh, my God, Jordan.

I was on the phone with Liz today, and she was telling me some of the other names of the tennis teams in her league. What were some of the other ones?

Well, I did mention, I mean, my favorite is Supreme Quarters. That's just the best name.
Right. That's what I get.
Yeah, it's just the best name. They just nailed it.

God, I'm going to bring up my list on my app match time.

And I mean, there's not a single one that doesn't go for a pun. That's great.
You can't find one. Well, that's the second reason Yorm's not going to join the league.

The first is that he currently can't move. Yeah, he can't walk.

Yeah, that's the main. The main reason.

There's a couple of reasons.

The other good news, in six weeks, he still can't walk. There's a couple of reasons, and they're both his legs.
No, in 12 weeks, I still can't walk. It's way worse.
Bye. Bye.

All right. I'm going to go.
I got to go too.

I don't have to go, actually. Your actually is Tech of Vale.
Yeah, I'm Tech of Vale, guys. I mean, I do have to get vitals soon, but besides that, I'm good.

All right, this was a delight. Thank you, Keenan, for coming on.
Thank you, Spivey, for your voice note.

And I love you guys. Love you guys.
Love you, dudes. Love you.
Later, Arnold. Later, Quaits.
