• 2:45Speaker 01

  Hi guys.

• 2:46Speaker 00

  So in the car right here, I had a situation that happened so annoying, but I think it's highly relatable. So we're gonna talk about on the pod.

• 2:53Speaker 00

  I was drinking my water bottle and I had my phone in my lap like this. And the water landed on the screen, wiped it off, but it must've gone into the charging space. So now I'm gonna put in some rice while we do the pod here today.

• 3:09Speaker 01

  Are you dropping your phone in the rice?

• 3:11Speaker 00

  Dropping it in.

• 3:12Speaker 02

  Wait, technically.

• 3:13Speaker 01

  It does, they're supposed to be waterproof, so it doesn't, it doesn't work.

• 3:17Speaker 02

  My phone, I literally dropped my phone in the bathtub yesterday.

• 3:21Speaker 00

  And did you put it in rice, did it work?

• 3:23Speaker 02

  I also dropped my phone in the ocean in July.

• 3:25Speaker 00

  And it works still.

• 3:26Speaker 02

  My phone's fine. You have to give it one of these.

• 3:30Speaker 01

  You have a phone from like 1904.

• 3:32Speaker 00

  I have to spin it when I do it and. Yeah, well, it's gonna be here for the rest of the pod. This is a lovely bag of Indian basmati rice.

• 3:40Speaker 01

  I'm excited to see if it'll come back to life, though. You're gonna de-moisturize it.

• 3:44Speaker 00

  Sell rice specifically for that purpose.

• 3:47Speaker 02

  It's actually not a terrible, bad idea. Apple does sell rice.

• 3:51Speaker 00

  Apple sells rice?

• 3:52Speaker 02

  No.

• 3:53Speaker 00

  Oh. That was a good one, Joe.

• 3:55Speaker 01

  Well, the last time I saw you guys, we were in Las Vegas seeing the Backstreet Boys. That was exceptional.

• 4:00Speaker 00

  Oh my gosh.

• 4:01Speaker 02

  Backstreet.

• 4:02Speaker 01

  Dude.

• 4:04Speaker 00

  So I had been adamant for months that you guys have to see the show, cause I saw it back in the spring.

• 4:09Speaker 00

  They announced more dates. We went out, checked it out, saw the boys beforehand, the Backstreet Men, as it were.

• 4:15Speaker 01

  The whole vibe, the white, the whole thing, it's just, it's perfect.

• 4:18Speaker 02

  We thought we were walking into our seats, the elevator opens and they're just there.

• 4:22Speaker 00

  Right there.

• 4:23Speaker 02

  All their handsome, handsome men.

• 4:25Speaker 00

  You guys didn't believe me about the all white thing too, that's, it's a real.

• 4:28Speaker 01

  I did.

• 4:29Speaker 02

  I didn't. I didn't really know that was a thing.

• 4:32Speaker 00

  Buy clothes, Kev, you sent your assistant enough to get you clothes.

• 4:34Speaker 01

  That's not exactly true, but I'll go with it. But it, I definitely.

• 4:38Speaker 00

  You were about to say that, I asked your assistant to get me white clothes.

• 4:41Speaker 01

  You did.

• 4:42Speaker 00

  Cause I guess what, I packed white, I packed white, and then I was like, this isn't the right kind of shade.

• 4:47Speaker 02

  Yeah, did you end up wearing black pants?

• 4:50Speaker 00

  Yeah, cause I don't have white pants.

• 4:52Speaker 02

  Well, I didn't either, I wore cream.

• 4:53Speaker 01

  Wore these exact pants that I'm wearing and shoes right now.

• 4:56Speaker 00

  You guys look color coordinated today, was that intentional?

• 4:59Speaker 01

  A little white and red, Joe.

• 5:00Speaker 02

  You know, I didn't notice that.

• 5:03Speaker 01

  It's nice, we look good.

• 5:05Speaker 02

  I look great.

• 5:06Speaker 01

  And Nick's wearing black instead of white, again.

• 5:08Speaker 02

  Yeah. Yeah, well.

• 5:10Speaker 01

  What'd you do last night, Nick?

• 5:12Speaker 00

  What'd I do last night?

• 5:13Speaker 01

  I know you recorded most of the day yesterday.

• 5:15Speaker 00

  I've been recording new music all week. I watched a movie with a friend, a great movie, uh, that I would suggest. So I went into the old AI machine and I said, hey, what's a highly underrated movie? If you like Waiting for Guffman slash The Big Sick.

• 5:30Speaker 02

  I'm gonna guess the friend you're, you were with Kavanaugh.

• 5:33Speaker 00

  Correct. And it told me, it said, this is a criminally underrated movie called Don't Think Twice from 2016.

• 5:40Speaker 02

  I'm gonna watch it tonight.

• 5:42Speaker 00

  Written by Mike Birbiglia. It is hilarious. It's about an improv troupe and basically all of them coming to terms with the fact that their lives are taking them in different directions. I'll say no more, but it has a 98% Rotten Tomato score, which is pretty exceptional.

• 5:57Speaker 01

  And it held up, it was great?

• 5:59Speaker 00

  Oh, it was phenomenal.

• 6:00Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 6:01Speaker 00

  I think it is criminally underrated.

• 6:03Speaker 01

  Well, we will watch it tonight.

• 6:06Speaker 00

  It actually is a perfect segue to our guest today, who, you know, this movie is all about like bits.

• 6:11Speaker 02

  Are you gonna say criminally underrated? That's the, that's the segue?

• 6:15Speaker 00

  No, that's not what I'm saying. He is, he is.

• 6:18Speaker 01

  Highly rated at this point.

• 6:19Speaker 00

  Rated, very rated.

• 6:21Speaker 02

  High rated, a high rated.

• 6:22Speaker 00

  I was so excited when, when they told us that he was in town and down to come do the podcast. Cause for, for, I feel like years now, we've all seen him on our feeds and loved his bits. And, and stand up his podcast. And also now, which was just announced, uh, he's gonna be on the next season of Dancing with the Stars.

• 6:42Speaker 01

  He's gonna crush too.

• 6:44Speaker 00

  So I think we should just get him out here and get things going. Please welcome Connor Wood.

• 6:49Speaker 02

  Connor Wood.

• 6:50Speaker 00

  Hi boys.

• 6:51Speaker 01

  It's so good to see you, man. Thanks for doing this.

• 6:53Speaker 00

  Likewise, thanks for having me.

• 6:54Speaker 01

  And thank you for wearing red to make Nick feel more out of place than the previous.

• 6:58Speaker 00

  It was great, but I like the black. It's, it's rare that I wear all black too. So this is, I feel very left out of the, the red and white combo. Hey, congrats.

• 7:07Speaker 02

  Congrats, man.

• 7:08Speaker 00

  Dancing with the Stars. Is this season 35 or 36?

• 7:13Speaker 05

  35.

• 7:14Speaker 00

  35, that's huge.

• 7:16Speaker 05

  I'm stoked.

• 7:17Speaker 00

  When did you get the call that it was happening and what was your first reaction?

• 7:21Speaker 05

  I got the call the day I signed a lease in New York, which is pure magic because it runs in LA.

• 7:26Speaker 01

  Of course, what happens, right?

• 7:27Speaker 05

  Right. Yeah, so I have this awesome apartment in New York that I searched, you know, New York real estate. While renting apartment real estate, there's no apartments left. So I got this awesome, I was like, this is a dream come true. And then another dream came true as I signed and moved in. This is like a completely concrete locked in lease that I have, which is nice. I'm gonna get my security deposit back, cause I won't have ever been inside.

• 7:51Speaker 00

  That's perfect.

• 7:52Speaker 02

  Well, that's good, that's a good problem to have.

• 7:54Speaker 00

  Speaking of security deposits, um, do you have dogs or cats?

• 7:58Speaker 05

  I have a dog, he's with my parents right now, Max.

• 8:00Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 8:00Speaker 02

  And where's your, where are your parents at?

• 8:02Speaker 05

  They're in Houston.

• 8:03Speaker 00

  Is that where you're from?

• 8:04Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 8:06Speaker 00

  Texas.

• 8:06Speaker 02

  We were just talking about Houston today.

• 8:08Speaker 00

  We have Texas roots as well, we were in Dallas for a while.

• 8:11Speaker 01

  Actually, which is so funny, we just announced that we're coming to Houston on our tour. It was one of the last stops we didn't announce.

• 8:17Speaker 02

  That's why we're very topical.

• 8:18Speaker 00

  Where should we go in Houston?

• 8:20Speaker 05

  Yeah. Oh my God.

• 8:22Speaker 02

  The rodeo?

• 8:23Speaker 05

  I don't know. I'm from like a very small town outside of Houston. So, and I was born in Austin, so I could probably guide you like in Austin more than.

• 8:31Speaker 00

  Okay, we love Austin too.

• 8:32Speaker 01

  We like Austin.

• 8:33Speaker 02

  We're gonna be there too, where should we go in Austin then?

• 8:35Speaker 05

  I'll send you guys a list, I have a running list.

• 8:37Speaker 00

  We don't wanna put you on the spot.

• 8:38Speaker 05

  Yeah, I have a bunch.

• 8:39Speaker 00

  Okay, so you sign the lease, you're locked into New York, then all of a sudden, uh, you get this call and they say, hey, we want you on scene 35 of Dancing with the Stars. With Riley Arnold, yeah?

• 8:50Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 8:51Speaker 00

  So we have a connection that I've never met her, I don't think, but, but she's a type one diabetic as well.

• 8:56Speaker 05

  She is.

• 8:57Speaker 00

  Yeah, which is great, she's, she's using her platform to show that you can do anything you want in life while living with type one. Very happy to see that, shout out Riley Arnold.

• 9:06Speaker 05

  She's the best too. It's super fun and we, uh, she's got me back on candy, cause we work pretty hard and, um, we do pause to take like candy breaks, which is nice, cause I get to bring candy. I'm kinda off candy, cause I have bad teeth, I get cavities still and like, I'm an adult, you know?

• 9:22Speaker 01

  We have a whole running thing about how, uh, we get cavities and our dentists all don't like each other on this pod, but that's fine.

• 9:29Speaker 02

  I went to, I went to the dentist today, Kevin, and I actually told our, I told my dentist that, that we talked shit about your dentist.

• 9:36Speaker 01

  Okay.

• 9:39Speaker 00

  You guys are dunking on each other's dentist?

• 9:41Speaker 01

  Yeah. Joe had a dentist that he needed some preventative drilling. And we thought that that might've been a little overreached.

• 9:48Speaker 00

  That's a scam, right?

• 9:49Speaker 05

  What's the?

• 9:49Speaker 01

  That's a scam.

• 9:50Speaker 05

  Walk me through preventative drilling, cause it sounds like this guy might be doing a little off the books.

• 9:54Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's what I said.

• 9:56Speaker 02

  Well, you know. It was. It was preventative because I, there were cavities incoming, I guess.

• 10:03Speaker 00

  Incoming cavities.

• 10:04Speaker 01

  See, that's where I go like, mm, I don't know. I'm gonna pay for this car damage before I got into the accident. Feels a little like that.

• 10:12Speaker 05

  Do you guys have, does anyone have veneers here?

• 10:15Speaker 00

  No.

• 10:16Speaker 01

  Why should I get them?

• 10:17Speaker 05

  No one, no one has veneers? None of you guys have veneers?

• 10:20Speaker 01

  Thought about it.

• 10:21Speaker 00

  We thought about it.

• 10:22Speaker 05

  That's like-

• 10:23Speaker 00

  Never did it.

• 10:23Speaker 05

  So rare that you guys are three for three marked safe from veneers.

• 10:27Speaker 00

  Is it?

• 10:28Speaker 05

  Even marked safe by Big Tooth.

• 10:30Speaker 00

  Marked safe by Big Tooth.

• 10:30Speaker 01

  And none of us had braces for years.

• 10:32Speaker 05

  Really?

• 10:33Speaker 01

  Yeah, they, none of us had braces either, so they're definitely coming for us.

• 10:36Speaker 05

  Wow, it's like the Illumi- they talk about the Illuminati, the real thing is like, big veneer coming, knocking on your door.

• 10:41Speaker 00

  Interesting. What else have you learned about Hollywood?

• 10:44Speaker 05

  Oh god, since yesterday?

• 10:46Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 10:47Speaker 00

  Big veneers are coming after us. Um, your dog is with your parents.

• 10:52Speaker 05

  My one thing, this happened to me today. When's the last time you guys went to CVS?

• 10:56Speaker 01

  Uh, yesterday.

• 10:56Speaker 00

  Pretty recently.

• 10:57Speaker 05

  Yesterday? Where?

• 10:59Speaker 01

  In my town in New Jersey.

• 11:00Speaker 05

  Okay. Do you have the buttons that you have to press so that some porcelain has to come over and unlock so you can buy?

• 11:06Speaker 02

  That's for Lubr- Lubr Kent.

• 11:09Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 11:09Speaker 02

  But here's the thing. Lubr Kent or like, um, NyQuil.

• 11:13Speaker 05

  They have to stop the Natasha Beddingfield playlist and everyone's gonna, excuse me, this guy on aisle four needs lube, bad. Stop the music and go help him.

• 11:23Speaker 02

  Like, can I get that for you, sir?

• 11:25Speaker 00

  But it's weird because, because there's no crime in Los Angeles, right? So why would they have to-

• 11:30Speaker 05

  Historically, no.

• 11:31Speaker 00

  Historically.

• 11:32Speaker 01

  No, that's what I mean.

• 11:33Speaker 00

  And the roads are great, so-

• 11:35Speaker 05

  I've been loving the roads.

• 11:36Speaker 01

  I've heard there's a lot of new fountains pretty much everywhere.

• 11:39Speaker 00

  Stop. Really? They're just, they're just brown.

• 11:43Speaker 01

  Yeah. Brown fountains all over LA.

• 11:45Speaker 05

  No one's doing it like this for some reason. But I had to go, I had to go this morning and because the camera is so close to you, they've got really nice cameras on Dancing with the Stars.

• 11:53Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 11:54Speaker 05

  And it's very, they're so big and they're so far away that you don't realize that they're, they're really tight on your face. I have never seen, I was not aware I had, I had nose hairs that like were visible, like I don't know if I'm just kinda locked in on my nose hairs. And I, I never even considered that I'm someone that could have nose hairs. So I went to CVS to get a trimmer.

• 12:16Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 12:17Speaker 01

  Nice.

• 12:17Speaker 00

  Did you go with a wall? A wall clipper?

• 12:20Speaker 05

  It's a good question. And I didn't use it, by the way, like you-

• 12:22Speaker 00

  They're pretty good. The ones that have a little attachment at the end. That thing.

• 12:25Speaker 05

  Okay, I'm gonna go get a wall. It wasn't pre-charge, which I don't know why-

• 12:28Speaker 01

  I started getting those like, extra long, just random white ones at this point, where it's just like, they just appear- Like, they're just out of the nose. Like, and it's like overnight. It's like, how did they become this long in one shot?

• 12:40Speaker 00

  Kevin's old, so.

• 12:42Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 12:42Speaker 02

  He's the old one.

• 12:43Speaker 05

  I mean, I had my first gray hair the other day.

• 12:47Speaker 01

  How'd that feel?

• 12:48Speaker 00

  How'd it go?

• 12:49Speaker 05

  Well, I kinda like, I woke up and I looked at it and I was like, no, you know? And then I kinda like get my hair wet and I was like, it's probably just like, something I ate yesterday, you know, like maybe it's mayonnaise or something. And I wash my hair and I like get it all wet and I move it and I can see it and then I ruffle it again. I'm like, maybe I can tuck it back. Maybe I can tuck it.

• 13:07Speaker 01

  Nick had the same moment on the tour bus the other day. He's like, guys, I found a gray. And I'm like-

• 13:12Speaker 02

  He found one and we couldn't, we couldn't see it.

• 13:14Speaker 00

  Here's the thing, I found it and I was actually excited and kinda proud, because I felt like, oh, I've earned it now.

• 13:19Speaker 02

  He was like filming it, he was filming it, he's like, guys, come here. And we were like, we, we don't see it, man. He was really upset with us because he was trying-

• 13:27Speaker 00

  He shamed me. They're like, you're making this up for content.

• 13:30Speaker 02

  Yeah, you're a liar.

• 13:31Speaker 05

  No, okay, if you guys-

• 13:33Speaker 02

  People deal with this all the time, Nick. Don't make jokes about this.

• 13:35Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 13:36Speaker 05

  If I would've been there, it was, I, I kinda played it off like, ugh, nose hair. I was kinda stoked. I was like, I'm like becoming my dad.

• 13:42Speaker 02

  I think you should let it ride, or until you get a sponsor. Yeah, until you get a nose hair sponsor.

• 13:48Speaker 05

  I think it might grow him out.

• 13:49Speaker 00

  I think the, the voting audience of, of Dancing with the Stars will be thrilled that you have nose hairs.

• 13:55Speaker 02

  Oh yeah.

• 13:55Speaker 00

  It's more relatable to more people than it's not.

• 13:59Speaker 02

  It's more relatable, but also you could get a little sponsor to get those things taken care of.

• 14:05Speaker 05

  Are you running the soundboard?

• 14:06Speaker 00

  Who's running the soundboard?

• 14:07Speaker 02

  Yes, sir.

• 14:07Speaker 05

  Fabulous timing.

• 14:08Speaker 02

  Whatever you wanna hear. I got a lot of the buttons over here.

• 14:11Speaker 05

  It's really good.

• 14:12Speaker 02

  You know what I'm saying?

• 14:15Speaker 05

  Wow.

• 14:16Speaker 02

  Oh, I can't stop this one when I start it.

• 14:18Speaker 01

  Actually, that sound is perfect. How have you been feeling about your prep for Dancing with the Stars so far?

• 14:23Speaker 05

  And let's leave this track on while I explain this.

• 14:25Speaker 01

  Walk me through that, please.

• 14:26Speaker 05

  I'm feeling good. Now, I'm feeling, I am feeling sore.

• 14:31Speaker 01

  Everybody gets in like the best shape of their life doing this.

• 14:33Speaker 05

  People keep saying that, like, are you getting ripped? I've put on weight.

• 14:36Speaker 00

  Muscle weighs more than-

• 14:38Speaker 05

  No, it's fat. My pants don't fit. Um, I'm eating so much candy. I told you, like, I'm eating Sour Patch Kids, I'm eating gummy bears. And I'm trying to keep it fresh, because I wanna bring, at first, like when Riley and I were meeting and she, she's keeping track because her, she has her, um, sensor on it and it goes off and so we'll stop and we'll have candy breaks. And I'm like, you know, as an ally, I'm eating as much candy as she is. I don't need it, you know?

• 15:02Speaker 01

  I like that.

• 15:03Speaker 05

  But it is, you're working out so hard and I'm feeling so good, you know? And you, you guys get like, hitting the beats and like making sure you have routines down. And then I, I go to sleep and I'm like, I did that shit. And then the next day I wake up and I go in and she's like, so, I changed the dance.

• 15:20Speaker 02

  Oh no.

• 15:21Speaker 05

  Every day. So.

• 15:23Speaker 02

  And that's tough because you're going home like, ready.

• 15:26Speaker 00

  When is it locked, though? Is it, so you do the dress or something and then at that point it's like, okay, we're not gonna change it anymore? Or is it just up until the last minute?

• 15:34Speaker 05

  Nick, I don't know. Nothing's been, they haven't told me anything.

• 15:38Speaker 00

  I imagine, I imagine that, that when you come onto the show, they give you like this big book. And I know this is just not true, but like, they come with this binder of all the things they've learned over 35 seasons. And you just get to learn these types of things. Like, at this stage, choreo's locked.

• 15:53Speaker 05

  The book-

• 15:54Speaker 00

  Doesn't exist.

• 15:55Speaker 05

  Um, is big. The book is huge.

• 15:57Speaker 00

  It's huge.

• 15:58Speaker 05

  And it's just like, get ready, bitch. Like, every page is just like a warning. Um, but nothing's very clear. No, it's, it's confusing. I keep, I keep getting like some foreshadowing and it's like, enjoy this now and sleep while you can. I'm like, how will it get harder? Cause I'm really struggling and-

• 16:16Speaker 02

  How many flips can I do?

• 16:17Speaker 05

  I know. Well, I can't do it. I can't lift her. You know, she's stronger than, she's had her biceps, she has my ideal after body, like in a before and after. She's ripped. And then, so we have a couple of weeks on this one. This is the most lead up we'll have for a dance. And the following weeks, it's week by week. It's every Tuesday.

• 16:35Speaker 01

  That's probably the thing, right? Like, then you're like, here's this brand new thing and every day it's gonna change. But then you also have to kinda sell yourself a little bit too, right?

• 16:43Speaker 05

  It's bananas. And this is like all news to me. I've only danced at weddings.

• 16:46Speaker 00

  I was gonna ask, are you, are you a wedding dancer? Are you a by yourself dancer? What would you have categorized yourself prior to now becoming a Dancing with the Stars dancer?

• 16:55Speaker 05

  I, I wouldn't, I wouldn't put myself in a category just because I don't wanna offend any community.

• 17:00Speaker 00

  Any community of dancers.

• 17:01Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 17:03Speaker 00

  It's good.

• 17:03Speaker 05

  I will be first. I'm not, I'm not-

• 17:05Speaker 02

  Don't be like Chalamet, right?

• 17:07Speaker 05

  You're right. Loving ballet. I, uh-

• 17:11Speaker 02

  We love you, Chalamet. We're just saying, you know?

• 17:13Speaker 05

  I'm not scared to dance in front of the audience until everyone's like, you should be. Now I'm kinda nervous, but I feel good.

• 17:19Speaker 01

  Terrible. This episode is brought to you by State Farm.

• 17:21Speaker 00

  You know that feeling when something fits just right? Your go-to jeans, your perfectly customized coffee order, a playlist that somehow knows exactly what song you need next? Personalization makes a difference, and your insurance should be no different.

• 17:33Speaker 01

  State Farm can help personalize coverage that fits your life and your budget, because your insurance coverage should feel right for you.

• 17:40Speaker 02

  Lucky good neighbor, State Farm is there.

• 17:42Speaker 00

  Hey Jonas is brought to you by Almond Breeze. It's time for some questions from the producers. All right. Who started drinking Almond Breeze almond milk first?

• 17:49Speaker 01

  Actually, I think that was you, Nick.

• 17:50Speaker 00

  I think it was.

• 17:51Speaker 01

  Yeah, you're like, you know, guys, I tried this Almond Breeze in my coffee today.

• 17:54Speaker 00

  Changed the game for me. All right, who's the most likely to finish the last carton of Almond Breeze and not replace it?

• 18:00Speaker 02

  That was Kevin.

• 18:00Speaker 00

  Kevin, of course.

• 18:01Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 18:02Speaker 01

  That's someone else's job.

• 18:03Speaker 02

  Take it, Kev.

• 18:03Speaker 00

  What's the most random place you drank Almond Breeze?

• 18:06Speaker 02

  The last time I visited the Empire State Building.

• 18:08Speaker 00

  Ah, that's a random place for sure. I've noticed you guys really like Almond Breeze almond milk. Who has the most specific way of drinking it?

• 18:15Speaker 02

  Ooh, um, Kevin's, you know what's what I found very interesting is how you will drink a carton to yourself.

• 18:22Speaker 05

  Yeah, just straight up the dome.

• 18:23Speaker 02

  And he usually does it before show.

• 18:25Speaker 05

  Yeah, just really getting myself going.

• 18:27Speaker 02

  He needs it on stage.

• 18:29Speaker 00

  Okay, last question. Why do you guys like Almond Breeze so much?

• 18:31Speaker 01

  Well, it just tastes great and it's a great alternative.

• 18:34Speaker 00

  It is great.

• 18:34Speaker 02

  It's simply because it's really good.

• 18:36Speaker 00

  True. Try Almond Breeze, trust us, it's really good. You've probably heard that good things come in threes.

• 18:41Speaker 01

  No, I've never heard that.

• 18:42Speaker 02

  Kevin.

• 18:43Speaker 00

  Yeah, you have.

• 18:44Speaker 02

  You've got bacon, lettuce, tomato, rock, paper, scissors.

• 18:47Speaker 00

  Joe, Nick, Kevin.

• 18:49Speaker 05

  Yeah, and that is a good one.

• 18:50Speaker 02

  Or because it's cold season, Kleenex lotion tissues.

• 18:54Speaker 01

  There's no three in Kleenex tissues.

• 18:56Speaker 02

  That's where you're wrong, Kev, my friend. Listen, Kleenex lotion tissues have three-in-one skin-loving benefits. It protects hands, soothes and moisturizes your skin.

• 19:05Speaker 01

  I never realized you were so into skincare, Joe.

• 19:08Speaker 00

  Come on, who doesn't love to moisturize?

• 19:10Speaker 01

  You've got a good point.

• 19:12Speaker 02

  Oh, and don't forget to tell them about the three thick layers made with coconut oil and olive.

• 19:16Speaker 00

  Wow, good things really do come in threes.

• 19:18Speaker 02

  For whatever happens next, grab Kleenex.

• 19:21Speaker 05

  Yeah. I have that thing. I just, I do stand-up.

• 19:24Speaker 00

  Of course.

• 19:24Speaker 05

  And it's nice, because like if I, if I mess something up, I will be very open. I'll be like, I'm gonna redo that, because this is a good joke. I'm gonna start from the top. You guys act like I didn't mess that up. Cause if I miss one stop or one little beat, it's like a domino thing. And then the rest, I feel like is kinda not, like I wanna deliver the best. There's no going back.

• 19:41Speaker 00

  I wanted to ask you about, about stand-up and, and just to take it back one step further. You start telling jokes and, and, and being funny. At what point in your life did you know like, oh, I'm, I'm funny enough, I'm gonna take this career path?

• 19:53Speaker 05

  I don't remember anything about my childhood. My parents said I was funny.

• 19:56Speaker 00

  So you had that in, in the, you know, your childhood. They said, you're hilarious. We're gonna make a lot of money off you, kid.

• 20:02Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, they're cash cows. Um, no, I, I, uh, in terms of like career-wise, when I got fired from my second job, I was like, oh, well-

• 20:13Speaker 00

  What was the second job?

• 20:14Speaker 05

  I worked at Bird, the scooter company.

• 20:16Speaker 01

  You were doing content for both, you know, Bumble and Bird, right?

• 20:19Speaker 05

  I was in the office nine to five. I was, I was like paying talent to like, and I was like, what's up? This is so cool. I'm working with talent. And I'm actually, it's funny, I'm like working with Bumble now. I was like on the other side of school. But I was there, it, it takes, it takes about six months for companies to realize that you're not cut out for the job and you lied on your resume. Yeah, so, and that was, that was my play. That's what I was doing.

• 20:40Speaker 02

  I like it, so you don't kite surf. Got it.

• 20:42Speaker 05

  Right. No, and I also don't do backend data integration, but I did watch one YouTube video, so I know how to talk about it.

• 20:49Speaker 01

  It's like, yeah, so do you speak Python or JavaScript? Which one is it?

• 20:51Speaker 05

  I lied. I had Python, like all of the lingo in my pocket. I promise you.

• 20:55Speaker 02

  Hey, it's a good six months.

• 20:57Speaker 01

  Please, Claude, um, AI, um, which one is it, dude? You wanna do it for me?

• 21:00Speaker 05

  I didn't have AI. Yeah.

• 21:02Speaker 02

  That's wild, the, the full circle of work- Working with Bumble yet again.

• 21:05Speaker 05

  I know. And it's funny because I, I share, you know, I talk way too much and I'm like telling everybody about that. So the comments were like, wow, this is, you used to intern there. Like I was full time. I just acted like an intern. But my employment came to an end and then I left and I went to Bird, which brought me to LA. And I remember I was where I was interviewing for Bird and like I, I kept throwing in the interviews. You know, I was hit by a car on a bird and they randomly, I didn't think that was funny. And so I kept reading.

• 21:32Speaker 01

  Just double down though?

• 21:34Speaker 05

  Yeah, I kept being like, maybe my delivery was off. So the comedy was like a little bit coming together while I was, while I was working office jobs and then COVID hit and I was released from that responsibility. And then I was full time. I was just posting TikToks and then they were like, remember someone came to me and they were like, this is standup. By the way, if you just make it longer, you just drag it out a little bit. And then that was the standup beginning.

• 21:57Speaker 00

  That's so wild. Standup, we, I've tried it during COVID, basically.

• 22:01Speaker 05

  Really?

• 22:02Speaker 00

  Our little pod, um, my, my wife and I and her cousin and her husband and a friend, we're all standing together and we got up like everybody did. We got really bored. Um, and so every Tuesday, Wednesday night, we would like prepare a tight five and, and do a bit in front of each other.

• 22:19Speaker 01

  I didn't know you did this. That's amazing.

• 22:21Speaker 00

  Highlight of my week. Um, the jokes were terrible, of course, because we're not comedians.

• 22:25Speaker 02

  Let's hear one. Let's hear one now.

• 22:27Speaker 00

  They're, they're, they're best kept in the COVID house with the COVID. But what I learned from even just that is that I'm, I get way more nervous trying to be funny in front of people than I do like singing or performing.

• 22:38Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 22:39Speaker 00

  And, and I think that's because comedy is so subjective. If someone's singing and it's, it doesn't sound great, you kind of know that.

• 22:47Speaker 05

  You lie to them.

• 22:48Speaker 00

  You lie to them.

• 22:49Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 22:49Speaker 00

  But when someone's like trying to be funny and it's just not, it might not just be for you.

• 22:55Speaker 05

  You let them know. That is interesting. I've never thought about that.

• 22:57Speaker 00

  I have friends that, that don't think the things that I think are, are funny and I judge them for it.

• 23:03Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 23:04Speaker 01

  They don't think I'm funny. So, and we work together every day.

• 23:06Speaker 00

  But there's a whole lot of people that do, Kev, that think you're hilarious.

• 23:11Speaker 01

  Those are my people.

• 23:13Speaker 05

  That's my family.

• 23:14Speaker 01

  They're my daughters. They're 12 and nine.

• 23:16Speaker 02

  Those are Kevin's employees.

• 23:18Speaker 00

  Hold on, but this is my, this is my question. How do you do something that becomes universally funny? It's hard, right? To, to find a thing that everyone's like, that is objectively funny.

• 23:26Speaker 05

  I love that you asked me that question because it's 100% subjective. I don't think I'm funny, you know? So it's like, it's comedian by comedian.

• 23:34Speaker 00

  I would say that the audience you've built, all of us, having been impacted by you both during COVID and now with your career just booming, that you are, you're like funny across the board.

• 23:46Speaker 01

  See, like the simplest things though. I will say, I will say it is the simplest things, Connor, because like.

• 23:51Speaker 00

  Oh, thank you.

• 23:52Speaker 01

  You showed that video of you in the hotel room in New York and the handprints are on the wall.

• 23:59Speaker 05

  That was Joe after he left CBS.

• 24:01Speaker 01

  But what I found the most funny about that room is just how small the room is with the bed in the window. Like you didn't reference the, the size of the space. You just referenced the hand, like I found it absolutely hilarious.

• 24:14Speaker 05

  Yeah, that was bananas. I did, I lied.

• 24:17Speaker 01

  Did you move rooms?

• 24:18Speaker 05

  I was late to something and I had to change and go. And then it was late when I got back. I slept in the bed. But I'm not picky. I think anything that I do like that.

• 24:27Speaker 01

  I was hopeful that they were your handprints too, but you know, that's just, you know, for your own sake.

• 24:31Speaker 05

  The M Night Shyamalan twist is that it was my handprints. I made the bed really tight. Content, content, content.

• 24:38Speaker 01

  That's right.

• 24:39Speaker 05

  No, I, I mean, like I, I didn't, I want to be frank. I did not. I'm also like, I'm not super picky. My immune system is great because of things like that, that I decided to move forward with doing instead of switching rooms. But yeah. But that, that was a, that was a very funny thing. Just like things, moments like that, like I think that the universally funny things are things that you, that happened to or around you. Like if you're in a car with an Uber and you're like, this would only happen to me, like it, it, it happens to everybody. But when you film and you talk about it and that's an experience that like is unique to you, but other people can relate to because they have XYZ. That's always fun.

• 25:15Speaker 00

  That's a great point.

• 25:16Speaker 05

  I hate to bring up relatability, but like.

• 25:18Speaker 00

  No, but before you came on, we were talking briefly about this movie that I watched last night called Don't Think Twice, which came out in 2016 about a improv troupe. And it's all that. They start every one of their shows by saying, who here has a particular, who had a particularly bad day? And they build off of that concept. And it's like things like that. Like I got in the Uber and the driver was my dad. Like, and that was really uncomfortable because I'm going to a date. It's like just things that happen in real life that become our way of getting through tough times, right? So you just gotta be able to laugh about it. Um, switching gears here, back to Dancing with the Stars real quick. You mentioned you've got a few weeks to prep this one. As you get into the competition, the flow, is there any one of the other,

• 25:59Speaker 00

  uh, stars that you're dancing against that you can already tell you're like, that's my mark. That's my competition.

• 26:05Speaker 02

  Yeah. You're like, I'm gonna break their legs.

• 26:08Speaker 00

  You do have some history with a few people on the show. Yeah?

• 26:11Speaker 05

  I know a handful of the, the stars.

• 26:15Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 26:16Speaker 05

  Ciarán Miller, Maura Higgins, Tyler Cameron.

• 26:18Speaker 00

  Of course. We have this great shot of you and Tyler right here. Get a close up there.

• 26:21Speaker 05

  Oh yeah. That was, that was funny. Yeah, we did.

• 26:24Speaker 00

  It's very Fallon of me actually, just pulling these cards.

• 26:26Speaker 05

  I know dude.

• 26:27Speaker 00

  Wow.

• 26:30Speaker 02

  I'm like, I'm like, yeah, okay. That's all I got.

• 26:32Speaker 00

  Like what the fuck am I doing?

• 26:34Speaker 05

  That's good.

• 26:35Speaker 01

  Like, sorry. You have Jenna, who's like obviously a dancer. Is that gonna be like, gonna be tough?

• 26:41Speaker 05

  You know what sucks is like, you can be a dancer. Like I'm just praying someone just like sucks, like personality wise. They are not only all hot, like as in sexy.

• 26:52Speaker 02

  As in attractive?

• 26:54Speaker 05

  As in like, I'm, I want and I need them.

• 26:58Speaker 05

  Taking my shirt off.

• 27:00Speaker 02

  Can't stop it once it starts.

• 27:03Speaker 05

  I like how long this one is. It's very long.

• 27:05Speaker 01

  You can't stop.

• 27:06Speaker 02

  That's what she said.

• 27:11Speaker 01

  Joe's auditioning to be a, a standup right now.

• 27:14Speaker 02

  Okay. Back to the, back to sexy, hot, attractive.

• 27:17Speaker 05

  I haven't seen anyone dance yet.

• 27:23Speaker 05

  But they're all athletes. They're all, they're like ripped. Obviously Tyler Cameron, like, you know, we should be in a different, like obviously weight class, but like genuine breed of people. Like he's like a different.

• 27:33Speaker 00

  I was gonna say, how funny and interesting would it be if they did do that thing? You have people talk about like, what if we had a person to give us a reference point of like what the average person would do against an Olympic athlete? And it's like, you see Michael Phelps and whoever go in the pool and then it's just us, right? And we're just a mile behind them.

• 27:52Speaker 01

  Me at the bottom of the pool.

• 27:53Speaker 00

  Okay, got it. So they are really good at swimming.

• 27:55Speaker 01

  Oh yeah. Cause like they're all so good. It's like by a tenth of a second, it's like, what are you talking about?

• 28:00Speaker 00

  Someone like Jenna, who's, who's danced, you know, famously in many movies. It'd be funny to be like, okay, you can, you can't use your left foot.

• 28:10Speaker 05

  Right.

• 28:12Speaker 00

  Or, or what's that thing like in, in ice skating when it's like, you can only do a certain number of spins or, or tricks? You gotta limit her to like.

• 28:21Speaker 01

  The difficulty level is like subdued essentially.

• 28:23Speaker 00

  Yeah. And if she steps outside of that and does a flashy move, it's like penalty.

• 28:27Speaker 05

  You're out of here. I mean, they are so talented and they are like, um, Harry is awesome too. Glee. And, uh, obviously Jen is awesome. So cool. And they all know how to do all these things. And I'm walking out of practice and I do sweat like a lot. And I'm walking out and it looks like I just jumped in, jumped in a pool. When I leave practice and I'm walking out and I run into, uh, Maura Higgins.

• 28:53Speaker 00

  Yep. Traitors of just traders fame.

• 28:55Speaker 05

  Yes. Traitors. She's just perfect looking. And I'm like, oh, we stopped dancing 10 minutes ago. I'm like,

• 29:04Speaker 05

  you just get here? She's like, no, we just finished. And I'm like, okay, me too. Like it's just like a day, like it's like bizarre. People are so good. Everyone's gonna be competition.

• 29:14Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 29:15Speaker 01

  Well, we're rooting for you.

• 29:16Speaker 00

  I have some unsolicited advice for you on that.

• 29:18Speaker 05

  Please.

• 29:18Speaker 00

  You didn't ask for it, so I'm just gonna, but you know, you should say, be like, actually I worked out before I came. That's why I was already sweating.

• 29:23Speaker 05

  Right.

• 29:24Speaker 00

  So then after.

• 29:25Speaker 01

  I just had to get a quick lift in prior.

• 29:27Speaker 05

  Right. As you can, as you can tell by the way I'm built.

• 29:32Speaker 00

  I'm very excited for you. It's gonna be amazing.

• 29:34Speaker 02

  This episode is brought to you by State Farm.

• 29:37Speaker 01

  There's something satisfying about getting something that fits you perfectly.

• 29:40Speaker 05

  Like child sized fuzzy socks?

• 29:42Speaker 01

  I was thinking more like a horror movie subscription, but sure.

• 29:45Speaker 05

  Like child sized fuzzy socks?

• 29:46Speaker 02

  And that's the point. When something is personalized for you, it fits differently. State Farm can help you personalize coverage to fit your life and budget.

• 29:53Speaker 05

  So basically child sized fuzzy socks level fit.

• 29:56Speaker 02

  You said it, not me.

  Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there.

• 29:59Speaker 02

  What's the most random place you drank almond breeze?

  He needs it on stage. Okay. Last question. Why do you guys like almond breeze so much?

• 30:48Speaker 05

  Oh, it just tastes great. It's a great alternative. It is great.

• 30:51Speaker 02

  It's simply because it's really good.

• 30:53Speaker 00

  True. Try almond breeze. Trust us. It's really good.

• 30:56Speaker 01

  Plans get crazy this time of year. Holiday shopping, family parties, seasonal activities. It never ends. All fun things, but everyone is running around like crazy.

• 31:04Speaker 02

  And you know what else is running? Your nose. It sure doesn't stop in this colder weather and that is no fun.

• 31:10Speaker 00

  But that's why you should never leave home without Kleenex Snap and Go. It's the ultra soft tissues you love, now made to fit inside any bag. And it snaps shut for clean tissue anytime, anywhere you need it.

• 31:19Speaker 01

  So this season, when you're out and about, there's no need to use an old napkin, toilet paper. Let's be real, your sleeve.

• 31:25Speaker 02

  With Kleenex Snap and Go, there's always a clean tissue within reach to make it through all your plans.

• 31:30Speaker 00

  For whatever happens next, grab Kleenex. If you're down, we have a few, uh, voicemails.

• 31:35Speaker 05

  Please.

• 31:36Speaker 00

  From our, our listeners. Usually our, our callers have, you know, a story to tell and then something they want advice about.

• 31:42Speaker 05

  Cool.

• 31:43Speaker 00

  And, and we're not qualified to answer these questions, but we enjoy it.

• 31:46Speaker 02

  But they keep asking.

• 31:48Speaker 03

  Hey guys, I really need your help. Love your new song, Listen and Sad, but the problem is it's got me all in my feels and I want to reach out to my high school sweetheart. We used to listen to you guys. And so I'm just feeling super nostalgic right now, but we're both married and moved on with our lives.

• 32:04Speaker 02

  Don't do it.

• 32:05Speaker 03

  Yeah. I'm just feeling nostalgic and chaotic. Please help me.

• 32:09Speaker 00

  Okay. So she'll.

• 32:10Speaker 01

  First, rule number one, stop listening to our song then.

• 32:13Speaker 00

  She's married, he's married.

• 32:14Speaker 02

  No, Kevin, listen to more of our song.

• 32:16Speaker 00

  Okay. She's married, he's married. And she listened to the song. We just released a song that's about remembering a summer that felt endless and wonderful with the person you were falling for.

• 32:25Speaker 02

  When you're 16.

• 32:26Speaker 00

  And she's asking if, uh, she.

• 32:30Speaker 00

  Reach out to her ex. Thoughts? Concerns?

• 32:33Speaker 05

  Hmm. I don't know what kind of relationship she's in.

• 32:37Speaker 00

  She's married. She said she's married.

• 32:38Speaker 05

  Right, but it could be.

• 32:40Speaker 01

  Oh, could be an open relationship.

• 32:42Speaker 05

  They could both reach out to her high school sweetheart. I don't.

• 32:46Speaker 01

  They could both reach out.

• 32:48Speaker 05

  I don't know. It didn't sound like she was particularly unhappy.

• 32:51Speaker 00

  It wasn't like she was. She didn't really say like, hey, that's kind of against our rules as a married couple.

• 32:56Speaker 01

  She did put it on like potentially knowing that this could go on a live national podcast.

• 33:00Speaker 05

  It kind of sounded like he was behind her being like, and then say, um, like.

• 33:03Speaker 00

  I can come to.

• 33:05Speaker 05

  Yeah, yes.

• 33:05Speaker 00

  Well, hey, Kevin, hey, hey, Kevin. Have you seen the invite?

• 33:09Speaker 05

  Yes.

• 33:10Speaker 00

  Have you seen it? Kevin, have you seen it?

• 33:12Speaker 01

  Well, I watched it in your house.

• 33:13Speaker 00

  Okay, Joe, you've seen it. I also watched it.

• 33:17Speaker 01

  We also watched it together.

• 33:18Speaker 00

  Yeah, it's fine. I forgot. You guys are forgettable. What am I gonna say? You have watched it.

• 33:25Speaker 05

  Yes.

• 33:26Speaker 01

  It's insane.

• 33:27Speaker 05

  I have so many dots. I like, for one thing, and if you haven't seen it, I don't know, like, it's not gonna be a spoiler. It's very obvious. You can look at the poster and see what's gonna happen. But I think it's a, it's a phenomenal movie. The entire movie taking place in an apartment. One, just in the apartment and two, in like a four hour period is phenomenal, like very eight twenty-four.

• 33:46Speaker 00

  Right.

• 33:47Speaker 05

  It's beautiful. It's an acting masterclass by Olivia Wilde.

• 33:51Speaker 00

  Absolutely.

• 33:52Speaker 05

  Her micro expressions were phenomenal. I thought everybody was just remarkable, but Olivia Wilde was a standout.

• 33:59Speaker 00

  And the fact that she directed it too is incredible.

• 34:02Speaker 01

  It's, it's insane. It's so much to handle and process. I feel like I have to watch it again just to like, go through it.

• 34:09Speaker 00

  You have to watch it with Danielle, with your wife.

• 34:11Speaker 01

  Yeah, she's right here. And now she needs to watch it.

• 34:13Speaker 00

  I thought that it was the, the most fun and innovative, creative, interesting kind of, place to, to just set a story and the whole thing. And I thought that Olivia did an amazing job directing and her acting was phenomenal. Also, the rest of the cast, out of this world.

• 34:28Speaker 05

  Really great.

• 34:29Speaker 00

  Hold on, we've, we've lost the plot. Why did you bring this movie up in the first place?

• 34:33Speaker 05

  Because, um.

• 34:34Speaker 01

  More than one people are invited to the party.

• 34:36Speaker 00

  Yeah, because they might all sleep together.

• 34:40Speaker 05

  Well, yeah, I did. Yeah, I brought, I kind of brought orgy up.

• 34:44Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 34:44Speaker 05

  Which is my fault.

• 34:45Speaker 00

  So there might be a situation where everybody, to your point, she might be like, her and her partner would be like, yo, should we reach out to, he's cute still. Should we reach out to him? And as long as your partner's down and their partner's down and everybody's cool with it, so be it. Yes, I think that's good advice.

• 35:05Speaker 05

  Yeah, or get, go to therapy would.

• 35:07Speaker 00

  And if that's not, and that's not cool with everybody involved, go to therapy.

• 35:13Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 35:13Speaker 00

  Or just don't text him. Text your friend.

• 35:15Speaker 05

  You have options. Yeah, I think that that could be, you have several options besides.

• 35:20Speaker 00

  Yeah, there's options. There's options. Uh, this is a question from one of our amazing, uh, Hey Jonas listeners. From Kate says, people are very interested, uh, invested in you and Brooke to the point, uh, that there are TikTok edits of the two of you. Have you guys, uh, seen the edits of each other and, and what do fans see as romantic that to you is just completely normal, broken, kind of behavior?

• 35:42Speaker 05

  Yeah, I think it's, it's so crazy to me. Yeah, she's like one of my best friends. I've seen the edits. I'm a narcissist. I see, I see the edits.

• 35:49Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 35:49Speaker 05

  Um, I, it's crazy to me in twenty twenty-six that the idea of, of a guy and a girl being friends in a platonic way are so groundbreaking that they need us to be married.

• 36:03Speaker 00

  Yeah, that is true. We gotta normalize male female friendships.

• 36:08Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah. It's like seeing an albino animal at the zoo. I'm like, there's only one of these. Wow, this is cool. I'm gonna make an edit of it, hooking up with the zebra and the other pen.

• 36:18Speaker 00

  Yeah, that's a, do it.

• 36:20Speaker 05

  Do it, why not? We're so young, you guys.

• 36:23Speaker 00

  We also have our bowl of questions here, um, which for some reason we always explain to our guests what it is, but it's a bowl of questions.

• 36:29Speaker 01

  It's good, Nick. It's the mirror eight ball.

• 36:31Speaker 05

  Oh, cool.

• 36:32Speaker 00

  And it's, it doesn't have anything to do with your career or your life, but it's just, you know, random.

• 36:36Speaker 05

  I reach into the.

• 36:36Speaker 00

  You reach into the bowl, yeah.

• 36:38Speaker 05

  How did you get in here?

• 36:42Speaker 05

  Ouch.

• 36:44Speaker 01

  Who invited you?

• 36:45Speaker 05

  What's an item you refuse to throw away even though it serves absolutely no purpose? Ooh, that's good. I just had like a really cathartic come to Jesus moment when I moved apartments and I saw how much stuff I have, like physical things. Cause I think I'd be a really good minimalist, except for all the stuff I have and keep.

• 37:02Speaker 00

  Our mother once said, I'm a minimalist. And we thought that was hilarious because she's not, but yeah.

• 37:08Speaker 05

  No, it's, minimalism is a mindset. You can be a minimalist with like hen coats.

• 37:14Speaker 00

  But what is the thing that you would, uh?

• 37:16Speaker 05

  This is disgusting. I'm gonna say it though. When I moved to LA, I was eating a lot of Trader Joe's frozen food. And when I moved out of my first apartment in LA, I was totally packed up and I was like, I better check like the fridge and I want my security deposit back. So I checked the freezer and there was a little frozen meatball at the bottom of my freezer by itself, not by itself though. It was sitting atop a frozen little mini gnocchi, not gnocchi, like tromboli, like little.

• 37:47Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 37:47Speaker 05

  And it looked like it was wearing like a little graduation cap, a little meatball with a graduation cap. And I was like, you're coming with me. And the beautiful thing about Trader Joe's is there's so many preservatives in that food. But that has moved with me from apartment to apartment for five years. I had.

• 38:02Speaker 01

  It's your mascot.

• 38:03Speaker 00

  Monarch.

• 38:05Speaker 05

  And I think it's a good testament to how we are constantly graduating and moving forward and we can't look back because we're not going that way.

• 38:11Speaker 01

  Oh my God, I love this and I love that for your meatball.

• 38:14Speaker 00

  As you were talking about this, I was, I was reminded of that great, um, Pixar short Bow. You ever seen that?

• 38:20Speaker 05

  I love Bow.

• 38:20Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah. Bow's so good.

• 38:21Speaker 00

  Like, how great would a story be about a little Italian meatball? Who, all he wants to do is be the first member of his, his meatball family.

• 38:29Speaker 05

  To go to college.

• 38:30Speaker 00

  Walk across the stage.

• 38:31Speaker 01

  To graduate.

• 38:32Speaker 00

  Can we write this, please? Moves to LA and ends up.

• 38:35Speaker 05

  It's a, it's a heartbreaker. Ouch, maybe he doesn't want to take over the family restaurant.

• 38:40Speaker 00

  Exactly.

• 38:41Speaker 05

  And Jersey.

• 38:41Speaker 00

  He doesn't want to do it.

• 38:42Speaker 05

  Papa, I want to do something bigger with my life. I want to be an architect.

• 38:48Speaker 01

  He doesn't want to be in the pasta. He wants to be in the sandwich.

• 38:52Speaker 05

  Why am I about to cry?

• 38:53Speaker 00

  It's the origin story of Chef Boyardee.

• 38:56Speaker 01

  Oh my God.

• 38:58Speaker 00

  It's the prequel to his, his biopic. Yeah. Wow, I'm, I'm, I'm signing up for that.

• 39:03Speaker 01

  I'm inspired.

• 39:05Speaker 00

  Wow. As long as you play the dad.

• 39:06Speaker 05

  Also verda trademark. I feel like that's a really good idea that we should.

• 39:09Speaker 00

  For sure.

• 39:10Speaker 05

  Capitalize.

• 39:11Speaker 00

  I think it's a home run.

• 39:13Speaker 01

Her family never bought it and the man they suspected wore a badge. You never know who that devil is because he's wearing a disguise. Sometimes it's a police uniform.
