The podcast covers similar ground guests come with a list of their blocks. And together with Neil, they make light of them. It's surprisingly funny and earnest. Past guests have included Trevor Noah, Jerry Seinfeld, Nikki Glazer, David Letterman, Taylor Tomlinson, Bill Burr, and John Loveitt, where I discuss being gay and also not fitting in with gay people. Don't really fit in with anybody. It's an extra orientation thing. You're not going to believe that I overshared. Blocks comes out every two weeks, so it doesn't feel like a burden for you or Neil.

What trending slop actually makes us pop. And of course, we'll regret it all by the end with second thoughts. But first, let's get into it. What a week. The Trump administration began deploying ICE agents to airports across the U.S.

4:14Preparing for the U.S. Preparing for the U.S. Preparing for the U.S. Preparing for the U.S. Preparing for the U.S. Preparing for the U.S. Preparing for the U.S. Port of Amica. What a year. Favorite party. Terrace agents to airports across the U.S. Reportedly to address long security lines as the partial government Shoughdown. Shut down, fuck. Yeet. We're doing it, leave it in. Let It left, TVA unpaid and understabped. Explained an ICE spokesperson to a Journalist holding a small audio recorder. Drop the gun! U.S. Gamec Hans ... helpfully stand in around. Look at these guys. They can't even stand at the airport correctly. You got to go to a gate and 10 minutes before boarding begins, you got to stand in the boarding area. Because even though that means until your group is called, everyone has to ask who is and isn't in line and then awkwardly go around each other, you will be first to board with your group, which in turn creates pressure for everyone to crowd the boarding era because you risk not having space for your bag because you respected the process.

5:18And though if everyone respected the process and waited in their seats or just not directly in front of the gate, everyone would board in roughly the same order anyway, which is just a small example, how life gets worse as you move from a high trust to a low trust society. Another example being Donald Trump as president and deploying ice to the fucking airports. Anyway, Trump wax poetic in a true social post about the deployment to airports saying quote, the public is loving ice. They are great American patriots. They just happen to have much larger and harder muscles than most, which is what they're supposed to have. I know there are direct flights to Charleston. I want the two layovers. I need them said Lindsey Graham saliva dripping onto the table. Meanwhile, the TSA is acting administrator said Wednesday that ice shuffling around in the little vests had it magically fix the problem. More than 480 TSA agents have quits since the shutdown began and the country's

6:18airports are experiencing the highest weight times in history. If only Kamala were elected, we could be experiencing the highest weight times in her street, and it's not all bad. Every ice agent drinking a taxpayer-funded Starbucks at Newark Terminal B is one fewer ice agent harassing people on the street. But it's also one more person in line at the airport Starbucks, and every airport Starbucks does seem like it's one customer away from total collapse. I think it's the one place if you told me that an ice agent put their gun up in the air and fired to try to calm the chaos. I'd be like, let's hear him out. But all of this is symbolic. The reason TSA is not funded is because Democrats do not want to fund ice, with the exception of John Federman, who is in the middle of his own version of eat prey love, but instead of trying new pasta shapes until you realize you are enough. You have a stroke and realize you are conservative.

7:19Okay, so we're not funding TSA because we're not funding ice, but ice is sitting on $85 billion from Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. So in order to avoid funding ice, we've created a situation in which only ice is funded. I haven't seen ice ruin this many people's travel plan since the Titanic. Delta Airlines announced this week that it was suspending some airport perks for members of Congress until the shutdown is over, like a designated check-in desk. Not to be outdone, Spirit Airlines said it was going to stop hosing the turds out of the aisle between flights. But the whole reason Democrats drew this line was to create pressure on Trump and Republicans to attach reforms to any funding bill to rein in ice's worst successes. But when Democrats proposed reforms to require ice to wear ID and show their faces to codify rules around the use of force to reaffirm the need for judicial warrants and prohibit baseless attentions to protect people at hospitals and at courthouses among other proposals. A bunch of online warriors and some lefties mock these Democrats as

8:20centrist squishes, proposing half measures to reform an agency that cannot be fixed. But whatever our aim is in the long term right now, the truth is the only hope of any reform at ice in the next several years is to re-deal because it will require Republican votes in Congress not to mention Trump's signature. Saying LOL Democrats bad, size steps the actual hard question. Funding ice with no reforms is unacceptable. The complete overhaul we'd want is impossible. Trump is at his lowest ebb and Democrats have leveraged. The question is what can we extract right now to make giving up our leverage worth it? And like Melinda Gates said to her divorce attorneys, let's fuck him all the way back to Epstein's island. This week, Trump demanded Republicans hold out on a deal unless it includes not only ice funding, but his elections bill that will require married women to show their passports, birth certificates, or whole to vote in the midterms. This is the SAVE Act which doesn't have enough votes to pass on its own, let alone went tied to government funding. So I'm tying Homeland Security into voter identification with picture and proof of citizenship

9:27in order to vote, and I'm requesting that the Republican senators do that immediately. You don't have to take a fast vote. Don't worry about Easter going home. In fact, make this one for Jesus, okay? And then if Jesus does come back, we'll finally have enough money to deport that barefoot Arab socialist back to the desert he came from. On Tuesday, Senate Democrats rejected a framework from Republicans to end the shutdown because it didn't go far enough. And as of this, recording the negotiations are ongoing as more and more TSA agents call and sick or quit altogether. And I'll say to them the same thing I said to the Crooked Media Workers Union during our bargaining sessions, come on, please work for free. Just work for free. Didn't work. On Thursday, the Senate held a test vote on what Republicans called their best and final offer. In the end to no one's surprise, only John Fetterman crossed the aisle. Republicans can count on his vote until that next stroke turns

10:27in malice, and he disappears into the polka nose for 20 years. I'm scared, but fuck a lot for when he comes back. He will not believe what happens when Fetterman, Maoist, comes out of the wilderness in 20 years. They are ready. All of this is why I set the airports is a fitting metaphor for the Trump era, a symbolic deployment during a symbolic shutdown. As the president's chaos, and mismanagement draws all of our attention and energy as the country crumbles around us. The Pentagon has a trillion dollar budget, but Trump says they need another 200 billion dollars for the war in Iran. We already supposedly won. I don't like to say this. We've won this, this war has been won. The only one that likes to keep it going is the fake news. Meanwhile, on the Tarmac at LaGuardia on Sunday night, as people were in terminals waiting in security lines for hours to be screened by unpaid TSA agents. Two pilots died in a collision, one of a series of mishaps under an FAA that has been underfunded, overworked, and saddled with obsolete technology.

11:29And we can't just sit back and let people die because we underfunded critical life-saving infrastructure while expecting overwhelmed professionals to make up for our neglect. It's an airport, not a hospital. Trump's own Secretary of Transportation, Sean Duffy, who I would make fun of, for being a reality star, except he happens to be one of the most responsible members of Trump's cabinet, is going around to Congress, hadn't hand begging for money to fix the air traffic control system for a tiny fraction of what Trump wants to spend turning Ayatollas from a liquid into a gas. Memory lane. Memory lane. And you know what that sounds means. It's time for a trip down memory lane. Back in the 2010s, conservatives spent years yelling on TV and holding hearings and conducting investigations about a company called Syllindra. This was a supposedly epic boondoggle because the Obama administration backed loans of $535 million, half a billion, as part of a guarantee to this solar company, Syllindra, and that company went under and the government lost

12:32that $535 million. Now that loan was only 3% of that overall loan program. Democrats assumed that some fraction of the companies that received loans would fail. That's why the government had to be a backstop in the first place. These were some risky bets. It's like how we make this show. A certain amount of failure is just baked into the process. But even with the losses from Syllindra, that loan program under the Obama administration funded clean energy and created jobs while also returning every dime of taxpayer money plus interest. Taxpayers made a profit on that loan program. Republicans turned a real world success into a symbolic scandal for television. And yet, this week, the Trump administration announced it was writing a check for a billion dollars to a French energy company as a payoff for killing two offshore wind farms. In exchange, the company, ha ha ha, I'm sorry, the company, total energy, has promised to subsidize oil and gas production in Texas while promising not to pursue offshore wind energy in America ever again. In other words,

13:38the Trump administration is paying the French a billion dollars to not work their favorite thing. And Republicans who claim to be outraged by waste and by the government choosing winners and losers won't say a peep. Because for these people, the real world impact does not matter. The long-term cost to the country doesn't matter what matters is the symbolism. What matters is owning the lives and what plays on television. That's what we're seeing with Iran too. On Wednesday, NBC News reported that Trump receives a daily video montage from military officials highlighting the biggest strikes in Iran from the past 48 hours, a briefing that one official described as a series of clips of stuff blowing up. Move over, Bay of Pigs. This is the Michael Bay of Pigs. Responded JD Vans? Look, obviously we're concerned about the screen time, but you know, one day you're gonna have a president of your own and you're gonna see just how hard it is to get a moment of peace. And this isn't the only briefing Trump gets about the war, but it's raising concerns even among his allies that he might not be receiving the full picture

14:41of how things are going, especially when you consider the company he keeps. On Monday, Trump had this to say about the decision to start a war with Iran and the influence of his defense secretary. Pete, I think you were the first one to speak up and you said, let's do it. Please, Mr. President, save it for the hagg. It's fun to think about, to have that fantasy as if we live in that world. On Wednesday evening, Trump spoke in an annual Republican gala and said this about Iran. And they are negotiating, by the way, and they want to make a deal so badly, but they're afraid to say it because they figure they'll be killed by their own people. They're also afraid they'll be killed by us. Not sure where that paranoia is coming from when you have the reassurances of the defense secretary. And that's why we see ourselves as part of this negotiation as well. We negotiate with bombs. Oh, oh, but that's not what that word means. You don't get a better deal on a CRV by throwing a brick through a window of the dealership. Even if you're trying to take out

15:45their lead salesman, you're just radicalizing the junior associates, especially because you did this during Happy Ham the Days. Take out the lead negotiator. There's somebody on the lower ab that we can work with, not anymore. They're fucking furious. You took out the window and then the negotiator in the middle of this precious time called Happy Ham the Days. There was a story in Zateo today that Hegseth's nickname around the Pentagon is dumb McNamara. It's really bothered me because it's not a play on rubber McNamara at all. And so we have some alternatives. Thick Cheney. Blondaleezza Rice. Donald Dumsfeld. And Ugfife. There's a question as to whether people remembered Ugfife. Said Trump at Thursday's cabinet meeting. And just so we set the record straight because I've been watching the Wall Street Journal's fake news

16:47and all these stories that get printed like, oh, I want to make a deal. They are begging to make a deal. Not me. They're begging to make a deal. Sure, buddy. Trump teased that Iran had even given him a gift and confirmed at the cabinet meeting that the gift was allowing eight oil tankers through the straight of Hormuz. Also, the oil tankers were made of wood and shaped like horses. It's a wonderful, it's a wonderful, thoughtful gift. So, so Trump says we're winning the war and Iran is begging for a deal. But Iran rejected a ceasefire and Trump is sending thousands of paratroopers to the region while Iran is reportedly building up its defenses around a place called Carg Island, which handles 90% of the country's crude exports and preparation for a possible U.S. ground operation. Carg Island doesn't sound like a place we should be sending American troops. It sounds like where we should have to travel to get a gold star in Mario Party or to rescue your wife from King Kong. But Trump and the Republicans have a problem. Markets don't care about how the war looks on television. Markets care about the price of oil and voters don't care when the secretary

17:52of defense says we're bombing the woke at a woka stand when gas is pushing five dollars a gallon. That's why Trump's approval, according to a new Reuters poll, hit a new low of 36%. Trump's own district in Palm Beach just elected a Democrat two years ago or a public in one, that seat by 20 points. Meanwhile, the president is touring Graceland while the country is at war. Elvis had two eighths green black belts in karate. When was in Kenpo enough for this? Was he really good? Or was it just... Actually, he was really good. He started practicing. Could I have taken him in a fight? I don't know, you might. I think he would have been respectful enough to let you be. Yes, he probably would. Would Elvis have let Trump win a lot of people forget this? But Elvis had a lesbian sister who he loved and whose partner he embraced. And a lot of people forget this because I made it up. Elvis never said that much about politics after he got that little badge from Nixon. The Colonel wanted to protect Elvis' all-American image. And you can get pretty far in America

18:53on how things seem. But right now, the American people are furious about how things actually are. And Trump can hit the stage and swing his hips and blow his kisses and serenade the five. But at the end of the day, he's just a fat slob, past his prime, shooting at the TV and slowly dying on the fucking toilet. Which, by the way, is my favorite Elvis album. That slob on the... dying on the fucking toilet, mama. Mama. That slob dying on the toilet, mama. Was it... Did I do better in rehearsal? Mama, mama, mama. That s it. Mama. Mama. Shows over. Mama. This for an hour. Mama. Mama. It s similar. You have to do the... You have to go to the back of your throat. It s the French. Ha, then you go lower. Ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha, ha, ha. We got a great show for you tonight. Jorma Taconis here, mama. Mama. Mama.

Before we get to the rest of the show, how many people here are from Los Angeles? Have you been following what happened today with the the K line? Do you know what I'm talking about with the K line? It's a good story, which is

23:00LA is going to build some rail. And boy, like an ant crawling across a rubber band, it's going to keep getting longer in front of us, but also behind us somehow. And the question was, are we going to build a train that basically connects the sort of north of LAX all the way up to the Hollywood Bowl? And this is something LA voted for in a ballot measure 70% had to get to 67 percent. We voted for it 70% to do a bunch of transit. Extenges was in 2016. There's also a bunch of money set aside. If we can accelerate this project, there's a 2.2 somewhat billion dollar set aside to do it. But there's this problem in order to build a train, you have to dig a tunnel because it's Los Angeles. And the tunnel ends up going about 100 feet under some homes in Lafayette Square. So the commuting Lafayette Square said, we don't want a giant train under our 100 feet under our house because it's going to shake the cats. And so it's going to make the cats scared and will be scared and will be shaking all the time, like they imagined from the movies. So they did a study,

24:02two studies. Millions of dollars was spent to laying the project on studies and the studies came back and they said, actually, these train holes will be so far underground. So I don't know what the technically are called. Sort of these train pad tunnels. Those tunnels, technical term tunnels, will be so far underground that it'll be actually imperceptible without fine instruments. And you're not a fine instrument. You're a homeowner in mid-city. So you're fine. The cats won't know, you won't know. Let's build this thing and they said, no, we're still worried about the tunnels. Can you move the route? They're like, well, if we move the route, the train's going to have to turn right and then turn left and trains hate doing that. So it's going to slow the train down. They said, please move the tunnel for no reason. And everybody said, fine, fine homeowners in Lafayette Square, we're going to move the tunnel. So now if you look at the map of what happens with the K-line, it goes like this and then it comes around and it stays under San Vincent. They said, it doesn't go out under as many homes. And they said, thank you so much. This train may never be

25:05built. And so they tried to stop it. But they got some pretty big hitters involved, including Mayor Karen Bass, who seemed to be receptive to some of their arguments. And so there was a question going into what was a pivotal vote today that nobody really knew about, that basically meant that if the measure passed, but there was another motion to delay it, the K-line could never be started to be even considered being constructed until 2041. 2041, if it was delayed any further, it still may not be built until 2041, but there's a chance now we can unlock some of these billions of dollars and get the thing built faster. But a lot of people spoke up, it seemed to really piss off Mayor Karen Bass who put out a statement saying, anyone who suggests I'm going to stand in the way of this train is spreading misinformation. But I will make sure this community is heard. And it's like, well, wait, what, if they're hurt, we can hear them, but can we then ignore them? That was the question. But the good news is today, there was a vote. And a lot of people spoke up, a lot of people came to the meeting,

26:06there's a lot of behind-the-scenes negotiations. And at the end of the day, the Metro Board voted to expand the K-line without any delay. So it was a real victory for local politics and people standing up for transit. And yeah, it's still going to take too long, but that's a good example of how LA is finally facing some of the ways it has been governed stupidly for a very, very long time. Now, that doesn't mean we're not doing stupid things elsewhere, like how they're trying to implement SB 79. But this was a good example of people speaking up, putting on pressure, and it got the local government to move faster to build the K-line, which they're calling the Pink Line to the Pink Pony Club because it goes through you. That's all I wanted to say about that. Love to leave it is coming back to our nation's capital. Join us on April 23rd at the Lincoln Theater to pregame the White House correspondence dinner weekend and then not go to it. We have some awesome guests, which I am announcing right now for the first time. CNN's Jake Tapper, Senator Chris Murphy, and MS now Simone Sanders Townsend and Eugene Daniels. That's a great lineup. There could be more. There could be more great guests coming down the pipe. You don't know

27:08yet. There's some tickets left, not that many. Go to Cricket.com slash events to get them before they sell out. All right, please welcome to the stage the director of a hilarious new horror movie. It's, you know, you'll laugh. You'll, you know, be scared. You can do two things called over your dead body. It's your mataconi. Hi, thanks for being here. Come on in. Love you too. If you said I love you, then I love you too. I don't know. I don't know if that's what you said. Oh, righteous kill. That's my podcast. Okay, great. Quaid Army. It's such an unbelievably difficult thing to explain. What's Quaid Army? Why we decided to call our fans quads. Is it after Randy or Dennis? Neither. Wow. Neither. Is it from, is it from Total Recon? Yes, it is. Yeah. Yeah. I'm fluent. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, say no more. Yeah, say no more.

28:10Yes. Yes, it is because of a sketch that we did on SNL, which was Andy playing a quaddo in someone's. Have you seen it? I've seen the sketch and I'm aware of quaddo. Okay, great, great, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then while we were writing the sketch, I thought it was really funny that quaddo should call anyone who's not a quaddo, a quaid. And then we, and then I, when we wrote the sketch, I was like, we should start calling each other quads. Like, oh, and I was really obsessed with it. And then I mentioned on the pod and then it somehow became that our listeners are quads. Anyway, that's the story. Quaid hive rise up. Wait, army. I love that. Thank you. By the way, I really want to sit like you. I know. When I saw the show, I was like, oh, fuck, we get to sit like this. You said, Erby, why? Oh, that's great. These chairs are like a little monkey. Yeah, I like to be, yeah, that's good. Normally. Okay, good. Hey, you were part of, you part of Lonely Island. Yeah, technical group. I'm part of group. The pods in America. Yeah, I know, I know. I was saying,

29:10I was telling you, like, it's just crazy to see your face. I was telling Peter Miller, who is my brother-in-law, who writes for this show. But I was telling him that I was nice to see how handsome you were. Wow. I said that. I, you know, he told me that you said that and I appreciate that. We didn't talk about the specs. I really am. I consider myself the funny one. So, so I'm curious what you learned about being part of a group and if you have any tips for getting the other members of the group to hang out with you outside of work. It's tough. It's tough. This, you know, I got kids and we all have kids. So it's hard to, even for our pod, it's hard to even find the time to actually like see each other. We were trying to calculate when the last time we all saw each other together with Seth Meier. The podcast is with Seth Meier as well. And we, it's before the pandemic, we all hung out together, which is really sad. Yeah. So I don't have any advice for that at all. But being a part of the group, like, what? What have you learned? Like,

30:12navigating being part of a creative group. But it's weirder, right? Because it's three people, right? So like ours is more like democradically. It's like majority rule. So oftentimes if we have an idea and only two of the three of us understand the idea, that person will usually leave until the idea is a little bit more fully formed. And then the, like, the third guy will come in and poke holes and be like, this is why I don't understand this. It's like logic. And then you make it better by like the consensus of like, like, once it gets to the point where all three members understand it, then it's usually the best product. And then I would say like, there's a lot of fucking piggybacking. So you almost don't know where the, you know, how writers rooms are. It's like, it's like a joke starts and then it becomes another joke and then becomes like a to the point where you almost don't know where it began. And it's a much weirder joke, which I always appreciate. Yeah, I feel like that. People will ask about certain jokes from the like correspondents era or other and I have no idea where jokes started and ended. How could you possibly keep track of that? I mean, I know the

31:16good ones are mine, but yeah, I don't really remember. So your new movie over your dead body. Yes, it's a remake of a 2021 Norwegian black comedy called The Trip. Yes, which is such a weird thing to even have wanted to make a remake was a very odd thing for me. How did you think about it? Well, so it got proposed to me from a producer named Guy Danella who worked with Tommy Wirkola. I'm going to go ahead and say that that's how you say it in Norwegian. Tommy made the movie Violent Night, which is the Santa Claus diehard movie basically. And he's made a whole bunch of other movies. And there was like a Venn diagram there of like, he's doing action comedy. I'm doing comedy action. And there was some crossover there. And Tommy had been quoting some of our movies on like Harad, he loved, and he loved Popstar and Grover and things like that. So he was just quoting us like on set. And Guy was like, I met that guy. I did it. I'll hit him up. So he hit me up. And then

32:19a week later, he was like, this is weird, but you know, Tommy made this movie called The Trip. It's originally called in bad days was the original Norwegian title. But it's like on Netflix. So I watch it. And it's fucking crazy to like make any remake. I mean, it's to even want to do that. But it's also weird for how recent it is. Like it's like, it's just, it was only a couple of years ago that it came out. The original is great in a very European way. It's like super fucking dark. Like it is, like it's about two people go to a cabin and want to kill each other basically. And then crazy shit ensues. And it gets it like weird, weird, and like, it's a, it's a really fun. I don't want to spoil anything. But it goes all these different places. And I love, but I love the original. I thought it was great. And then I love the, the script that Nick and Brian wrote. They're in a group called Britannic. Or I think I'm pronouncing it. And, but like it was a really funny script. And it felt much more like me in that it, like it just totally, I felt like I could do something. And I, and then casting

33:22wise look with Jason Siegel and Samara. It was, it was just so fun to make. And it was a real challenge for me because it's like it, there's drama in it. There's actual real acting scenes. And there's full on action, like, like, not funny action necessarily. It's pretty fucking gory. But it was all these different tones. And then weaving throughout it is like we were pushing the comedy as much as we could. But within it being a real situation. So I, it was, for me, it was just like the challenge of doing it. That was a really fucking long answer. It was good. I'm interested. I'm interested. It was interesting. I'm fully in. It could have been longer. Thank you. So I'm glad you brought up the the difference between the sort of the comedy aspect and the horror aspect. Because what we were talking about sort of some of the like iconic sketches and songs. And, and, and what I wanted to talk to you about was actually editing. Because how much of I think what made them really special among other reasons was in part they were just like the comedy editing was like really so excellent. And that comedy editing and editing generally just gets short shriftest how much is made through editing. And I'm wondering how you

34:25think about the difference between like editing something for comedy and then editing something for suspense. Well, just like there was one moment. This is a tangent. But like, but there was one moment we got a better view of the movie Harad and and one of the like the criticisms was that it was poorly edited. And I was like the amount of fucking time that we spend like literally sitting there being like one frame to frame like because it is down to the frame to me with comedy in particular. And so, you know, I've spent fucking thousands of hours every single one of the digital shorts that you saw like that we made. And we made over a hundred is like this was before they had editors even working at the show. So me and Akiva like edited everything. So I was there like in at SNL when no one's even in the building when like when we were editing these things. So we put so much time and energy. And as you said, like it's like it's it really is it's timing to editing is timing and comedy is timing. So those scenes what was really fun for me was that the

35:33scenes that are purely comedy or have like a comedy moment in it. Those are the scenes that I sit in there and the term is frame fucking. And like and I sit there and get it and get it and sometimes that's music. Sometimes that's like the edit. Sometimes it's both. Oftentimes it's both and then and then the and the action same thing like I like it. It's it's it's removing frame. Sometimes it's even like you know like there's a bunch and you are taking out the frames in between here and here and then it just seems super aggressive. So you spend the time on all these things that action the comedy and then and then some of those things are like like either the suspense as you're saying or or or or the moments where suspense becomes like a punch or like a piece of action. And I would sit there and and really fucking focus on those scenes the way I would with any comedy scene. But what was really fun for me was the the scenes that don't involve that and are just purely like Jason and Samara really acting and and being with each other and leaving the camera on them because

36:34the it's so fun to see a performer. The little shifts in the eye or like or when they have because there's a lot going on in this movie and and there's a lot going on if you see it twice because like you sort of see things in a different vantage point. And so it was just it was really fun for me to see how easy those scenes were to edit and not fucking with them because I'm so used to like overly like but like but the those scenes like the ones that have impact like the Gore scenes they edit more like jokes because you're always wanting to be ahead of the audience. I'm like that was a big thing for us as a and what I was always saying with lonely on and stuff is that the stupid of the joke the faster you tell it because you just want to be ahead of your audience. And so a lot of the violence and stuff that happens in this is like it's it's punchy in that way of like and sometimes it takes a full fucking day to be like now it's good like you know I really said that. I mean another long answer. No it's not. Hey did you see the new Justin Timberlake DUI footage? I haven't seen it yet. On the way here my Uber driver was talking a lot

37:40about it. It's it's he's very likable even while getting arrested which is I think what that's it you know he has it. He definitely does. I've been saying like like like the story about Justin to me is like I've never met anyone more confident in my life like absolutely like and when we made dig in a box he was like that's a fucking hit. I was like I hit like wait what as it's like the beat sucks this is like two perverts. There's a that's a hit. That's so cool. Do you want to see a clip of him getting arrested? Let's watch it. I don't know. What are you visiting? Yeah I'm on tour. What are you doing? I'm on the world tour. I'm Justin Timberlake. What's your name? Justin Timberlake. You are Justin Timberlake? Yeah. White? He's good. He says you call me white. I'm just kidding. And then he always says like well what kind of tour? And he goes it's hard to explain I'm Justin Timberlake. Which I found charming. Well it's it's also weird when your name

38:47is a brag. Yeah like his actual name is him bragging. It hasn't happened to me yet. You played P.W. Herman in the Weird Al movie. I did. Yeah. How far did you go get a jerk? I've been not far. No I I dressed up as P.W. Herman twice for Halloween like one when I was like 14 and then I was lucky enough to become friends with Paul later in life and he was just the sweetest man alive. I don't know if you've seen that documentary but it's amazing. He was such a great part. I mean like I didn't realize my my wife made this movie called Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood which is about Mr. Rogers and I didn't realize like he was like the weird Mr. Rogers. He's like so sweet so much connection in the audience and yeah and I was so fucking nervous because they were very secretive about that movie and you couldn't say anything about like you being in it or anything and I was so worried that Paul was going to fucking hate it.

39:48But he was cool for that. Can I tell you my favorite moment of my life like in Hollywood? You have all the time. Oh tell it. Tell it. Tell it. Please. I had a moment. This is my brag. This is not this is my Justin Timberlake. But I was I was at Paul Ruben's house with Paul Rust. They were writing the P.W. Big Holiday movie and I at the time I was going to maybe direct it and then we said we had to do this maybe pop star. Fucking bummer. And but I was smoking weed with Paul Ruben's at his kitchen table and then I got a text from Weird Al Yankovic saying congrats on the Grammy nomination and I was like oh my god I was like I just need a Tony Hawk to like kick in the door and be like I'm your best friend and I would have been like oh shit my 12 year old self just like exploded but it's never enough is it never enough the pit is so large.

40:57It's like now I'm here but what's past year you know what's higher than this there must be something because this is already faded now that moment is gone. Now I'm just here the thrill of it is done and I'll just go home so I guess start all over again right. You guys are laughing but this is just true. Speaking of the yawning chasm between you know meaning and death. Your new movie over your dead body is about a couple played by Samara Weaving and Jason Segal who go on vacation only to discover that's this may be a murderous trip of some kind. Yes sort of romantic if you ask me in honor of your new film we bring you a segment we're calling over who's dead body. Oh and oh low that's not we're gonna have you blind rank the following couples based on how likely they are to murder each other on vacation wait I don't be blind I forget the blind ranking for we're gonna

41:57just look at these couples. I think that's better with this couple murder each other on vacation and if so who would win first up Vince and Linda McMahon. Oh it's McMahon co-founder of the W.O.BE Linda McMahon it was a long time W.W. Exact is the current U.S. Secretary of Education they have been married since 1966 but separated in 2024 on Tuesday Linda tweeted a wild post that said in 2005 everything changed the PlayStation portable was released and it did more than make gaming portable it made entertainment personal mobile and always within reach it was the beginning of life on the go that's what the Secretary of Education posted this week it's an insane piece of SponCon also simply false the PlayStation portable change nothing didn't evolve anything we'd had game boys forever crazy crazy well now last summer Vince was cited for reckless driving after crashing his Bentley into another car on a high-wing Connecticut when asked what he was doing Vince said this why would you drive in over a hundred miles an hour he had to get to his granddaughters

43:05birthday just being a pop pop that's just being a good guy what a good guy would you a day do you think they would try to kill each other on vacation okay who do you think would emerge triumphant well I'm basing this off off this photo which does look like he's almost wearing like a neck brace in this photo right I think that isn't but it looks cool yeah it does look really cool looks like he broke his neck in this photo um I have a friend who works in the New York Times name Fred and he has a phrase this is just a slight tangent but like but his phrase is like he loves uh saying top term buckle you know and not any like WWE fight like they build to that right it's like that and then when you get up on the fucking top term buckle like it's the like last like you know boom yeah yeah yeah and he likes to say like if somebody comes in hot they're coming top term buckle um I feel like Vince in this picture is top term buckle okay so I feel like he would have an advantage um if she was going to kill him I would certainly hope that she would choke him out

44:11with those pearls good answer good answer I think that's right but I yeah but I think uh next up we have Justin Trudeau and Katie Perry okay do you think they would try to murder each other vacation and if so who'd win oh I think that any Canadian is sadly too polite to murder anyone I mean a Canadian versus American no way she's definitely killing that dude yeah uh she's got that also like kind of pop star energy where it's like like she's done a kind of Pilates that hasn't actually been shown to the public you know what I mean like it's a private government pentagon there's like a farpa level of Pilates that's only available to seven women but like Katie Perry like maybe Rihanna has access to it like very few and to only them and like the they're like we the research is conclusive like this is the final one and they did it in like a hot room too yeah like so on vacation if they were on a beach she could still do it but you remember on a top

45:12in um gold up gold and I how she could kill people by squeezing them to death with her that was a good game and yeah and PlayStation changed the game change everything like they change everything change everything uh yeah Katie Perry great I agree that's correct let's do one more Paul Thomas Anderson and Maya Rudolph oh no god I would know well you should just say they won't do it these are like friends of mine I don't like talk well you know it's it's not real it's not real um but I have to answer yeah that's the rules of the podcast god um yeah you were saying backstage he's overrated as a director and it's like and it's like we get it uh I don't know if I can answer this one you said magnolia yeah there's such a wonderful couple is that that's a really boring answer they're so fun they're so fun they're so fun who would kill and who would call it Paul would kill and yeah yeah

46:18good look look at these like she's a little scamp that photo too they're both scamps look at them two scamps oh one final one um okay this is me and my fiance uh okay so uh you you have met Ari but you've met me and uh who do you think would win yeah how long have you guys been together a couple years okay I think that I'm dead and you love him love to so much um I would be so shocked to be murdered on vacation my honestly I think at that point I'd be like I didn't understand the world let it happen I was wrong that's what I would say you know I honestly swear to god if Ari tried to kill me on vacation I'd just be like that okay I was wrong about I just there's no reason I got it if I got it this wrong all the way to 43 like that I'm out that's okay I deserve this yeah so he looks sweet so I would imagine that's the whole thing be a shock yeah um would Ari poison you um like what do you think like if he was really gonna do it hmm I think they're more with

47:20I don't know you would stab you or anything I think actually I think that I could honestly I think that like I on a busy week if you just jumped out of a corner and scared me I'd have a heart attack yeah just take me out when I'm stressed I'm sure a tough drive home like really trafficking and I'm late for something just go boo I'm out yeah I said and then you know victim was crime basically or no that's not what I mean what do I mean is you they get away with it I by the way by the way I'll tell you something if Ari murders me I hope they get away with it I'm in again like I had a pretty pretty cute you guys are pretty cute couple too right yeah we're cute okay yeah that's cool tats too yeah they have tattoos they're they're they're they're cool than me right I'm like tattoos without the cemetery that's what I think yeah that's what I think about it yeah but I'll tell you until you get to the cemetery boy you better go see over your dead body April 24th seamless time with Dylan Adler please go see it

1:01:04very end like or you know like lowest moment goes back to his house and his house has been burned to a crisp and he like finds the lock it from his wife or whatever and it's just like a reconnection with like remember that's what he's doing he's so sad and I was like oh this would be so fucking rad if they flashed to everyone's widow who like all the people he had killed like looking at their thing being like oh man Eric like he fucking died like wow he's left so mind blowing right every mind blowing has a story that's what you were saying backstage John yes yes every founding father's story gets to get told every other henchman's story doesn't get told and that thing yeah that's Hamilton and that and that's Hamilton yeah speaking speaking of founding fathers Andy Cohen yeah summer peacock launched their AI powered Andy Cohen Avatar who will recap recent episodes and tease upcoming drama as he guides you through the digital

1:02:06brotherverse doing do you want this uh yeah so um you know he's a AI Andy Cohen that guides you through the brotherverse yeah that's right what that's what I you know what what don't you get okay honestly the only thing I can think in my head is like oh my god he's a top did you know he's a top he's a top is the a I want a top probably I probably too sort of a nothing yeah the price he's a top no I'm not I'm actually not surprised he's a top because he you know runs his own network but also bottoms actually run the world so I am maybe actually a little sour bottom yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah but the AI have nothing they're nothing they guys they yeah they're neither top nor bottom they just act as if they act as if they we if we want them to be a top they will be a top because that's how they act in the way that we expect them to act as close as possible to fulfilling our expectations you know in a sense yes so I suppose that that would

1:03:10probably mean that AI Andy is performatively a top yeah it is only digital yes right and can't be fuck because it doesn't exist just a digital thing exactly yeah you have to like figure out a different phone to fuck it or well what's what's interesting is you could imagine putting AI Andy into the Plato thing yeah and that could have been instantly that could have been mid meeting they could have been mid class you know they accidentally like all of a sudden there's like a philosopher talking to Lisa Rina and then they're like wait a second Plato's here where the fuck is Andy Cohen and it's like shut up you kids I don't know what he would say probably nothing that bad I believe made like then you can fuck it too like I didn't even think of that yeah after the bless one have sex with robots I never thought of that it's definitely gonna be a thing you think so no for sure no yeah what do you mean you have sex with dolls what are you talking about no one's gonna have sex with robots this is stupidest thing I've ever heard mark my words listen listen listen

1:04:13I don't like making predictions no one is going to have sex with robots you just remember when I said no one's gonna have sex with robots not it's gonna have part of the future it's gonna have crazy it's gonna happen it's a crazy thing to say yeah the guys are being crazy sex with robots no yeah Andy Cohen's involved in our movie too then bring it back to over your dead body April 24 how so I don't want to ruin it okay yeah he hosted the reunion so next up and we do want a Andy we didn't really resolve that I think we oh um maybe not for me just yeah okay the next up the throne one toilet uh it basically uh has an app that records all the poops you take lets you know about its consistency frequency hydration level throne one keeps it organized for you it's only $399 and before you ask yes
