Speaker 1: Ring ring ring ring, May I please speak with Zoe.
Speaker 2: Oh, hello, Lamurn, Let's Patch and Hannah.
Speaker 3: God, I forgot what it was like working with you.
Speaker 1: Guys.
Speaker 2: Hello everybody, and welcome to our show, Star show.
Speaker 1: Us.
Speaker 2: This is Lamourne and this is Hannah and we are friends.
Speaker 2: What's going on?
Speaker 1: Guys?
Speaker 3: Then?
Speaker 2: Uh, life is happening.
Speaker 3: Life is happening, I will say Rewatching the Bells episode
Speaker 3: directed by Peyton Read, written by Love Rocket.
Speaker 1: Love Rocket, I got a story. Remind me to tell
Speaker 1: you a story about love.
Speaker 3: It was so interesting to me because I was not
Speaker 3: in that episode, and if I watched it, it was
Speaker 3: maybe when it originally aired a decade ago, so I
Speaker 3: have a zero recollection yeah of that episode, and it
Speaker 3: was surprising to me so much of it.
Speaker 2: I was like handbails, ye, hand. I remember the episode
Speaker 2: that we shot second, but we it aired seventh, so
Speaker 2: it's it's funny to me looking at it. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 2: this was the episode. I still really felt like I
Speaker 2: was figuring stuff out. It was like, how far do
Speaker 2: I go with this? I don't know. I Also, it
Speaker 2: was like the first time I got to like have
Speaker 2: a storyline with Lemourn, which was super fun I have
Speaker 2: to say, I think Jake and Max's storyline was really
Speaker 2: great and so funny, so so funny.
Speaker 3: Fight to me was one of the funniest things I've
Speaker 3: seen in a while.
Speaker 2: They're there, banter was just so good and you feel
Speaker 2: like they've been friends forever. I I really like that
Speaker 2: that storyline because I you know, everybody knows, like the
Speaker 2: the storyline is if you haven't just watched this episode,
Speaker 2: like we have, that Nick is always fixing stuff in
Speaker 2: a kind of like he's kind of jerry rigging stuff
Speaker 2: to fix it, but it's they're not they're not the
Speaker 2: fancy fixes that Schmidt wants, and so they get in
Speaker 2: a fight like that Schmidt Schmidt so was throwing his
Speaker 2: money at stuff. He's getting fancy fixes. He's actually hiring
Speaker 2: professionals to do stuff, whereas Nick's scrappy and likes to
Speaker 2: jerry rig and fix this stuff in weird ways. And
Speaker 2: so Schmidt starts like taking all of the stuff he
Speaker 2: bought away, and then Nick starts unfixing stuff. It's very
Speaker 2: I mean, it's very fun. It's a simple storyline, but
Speaker 2: it's very funny. Last time on New Girl episode one
Speaker 2: oh seven Bells, just as school is running out of space,
Speaker 2: so she brings her delinquent students back to the loft
Speaker 2: to learn the art of hand bells. Schmidt wants the
Speaker 2: plumbing fancy fix in theft asap, but Nick is confident
Speaker 2: in his craftsmanship. Eventually, Schmidt hires a plumber who compliments
Speaker 2: Nick's bottle trick. Meanwhile, Winston has joined the bells team,
Speaker 2: but he's two damn good and two damn competitive, and
Speaker 2: Jess has to kick him off the squad for being
Speaker 2: mean to the kids. Nick and Schmidt begin a war
Speaker 2: that ends with everything Schmidt ever purchased being stuffed into
Speaker 2: his room. The guys make amends on the roof, where
Speaker 2: Nick explains that Schmidt knows him all too well and
Speaker 2: that he'd prefer a friend who would lie to spare
Speaker 2: his feelings. The guys make amends on the roof, where
Speaker 2: Nick explains Schmidt knows him too well and he'd prefer
Speaker 2: a friend who would lie to spare his feelings. Jess
Speaker 2: tells Winston that he can't be one more person disappointing
Speaker 2: these kids. At their recital in the park, Whinston shows
Speaker 2: up and is welcome back to the team. They do
Speaker 2: a mediocre but spirited version of I of the Tiger
Speaker 2: that everyone can rock out too. Now back to the show.
Speaker 3: There are two categories of people, and they really clearly
Speaker 3: define them in this episode of fancy fix versus fix
Speaker 3: to the point of working right, which is really funny
Speaker 3: to me.
Speaker 1: I prefer either. I could go either way. When I
Speaker 1: was looking at some of the fixes that Nick was,
Speaker 1: you know, some of his fixes made sense to me.
Speaker 1: Some of his fixes reminded me of how of how
Speaker 1: he grew up. They had a single mom, so sometimes
Speaker 1: when things would break, she wouldn't necessarily know about it
Speaker 1: or have the time to fix it. But we as
Speaker 1: boys in the house, would just kind of, you know,
Speaker 1: mend it together, wouldn't Maguy I writ the best way
Speaker 1: we could, and she'd gotta go, Oh the works for you,
Speaker 1: works for me anyway, gotta go to work. Favorite is
Speaker 1: his soap dispenser. While he's talking, he has.
Speaker 2: I mean, who hasn't had like a soap dispenser not working,
Speaker 2: and you're just like, oh god, I'm just gonna take
Speaker 2: the top off exactly.
Speaker 1: Dispensers for some reason always break.
Speaker 2: They always break. It's true.
Speaker 3: Ask me the right angle to get the pump man.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Hannah?
Speaker 2: And they it's this, it's this the part that unscrews
Speaker 2: like doesn't seem to want to unscrew, you know, like
Speaker 2: where you're supposed to like screw in one part and
Speaker 2: then unscrew the top bit.
Speaker 1: And you guys are on some weird stuff today. Wait,
Speaker 1: Peyton read?
Speaker 3: Can you talk to me about Peyton read? Because Zoe
Speaker 3: I feel, Oh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Peyton is so fantastic. Peyton directed the movie Yes
Speaker 2: Man that I was in, a great uh great fun
Speaker 2: uh movie, a movie that was great fun if you will,
Speaker 2: and uh, Jim Carrey was in it.
Speaker 1: Huh did he do ant Man as well?
Speaker 2: I think Peyton did? Yeah, he did ant.
Speaker 1: Man, Yes Man, aunt Man.
Speaker 2: He also did Bring it On, directed Bring it On.
Speaker 2: He's directed all kinds of great movies. He is just
Speaker 2: a fantastic person, so sweet, so sweet. He directed one
Speaker 2: of my favorite She and Him videos that we've ever done.
Speaker 2: Really Yes, he did this one for in the Sun
Speaker 2: and it was a really fun video. So Peyton's hopped
Speaker 2: on and gotten involved in a bunch of things that
Speaker 2: I've been involved with, and it's made my life so
Speaker 2: much better because he's wonderful and he actually directed a
Speaker 2: bunch of New Girl episodes in the first few seasons.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, also written by Love Rocket.
Speaker 2: Love and Love Rocke was was there from day one,
Speaker 2: day one.
Speaker 1: One of my one of my favorite people overall, just
Speaker 1: in life. He's such a great guy, great family.
Speaker 3: One of the best laughs.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh yeah, can you do it? Can you
Speaker 1: give us an impression?
Speaker 3: I can't, it's so high.
Speaker 1: I mean, have you heard your baby voice? Yeah, if he.
Speaker 3: Gets going, it's like a baby being tickled. We have
Speaker 3: to have love on. We'll just have him laugh and
Speaker 3: then he can go. He doesn't have to share any stories.
Speaker 1: Well, funny story about love. So I have security cameras
Speaker 1: all over my house, all outside of my house, and
Speaker 1: sometimes when I go, when I go travel, well here,
Speaker 1: so here's the thing. Sometimes when I when I travel,
Speaker 1: I'll just check in. Now, obviously my brother is still
Speaker 1: my brother is still here, but I'll just check the
Speaker 1: security cameras outside just to check him randomly.
Speaker 2: Weren't trying to tell you all he's rich.
Speaker 3: He's watching you, and he's paranoid.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to tell you somebody you tried to rob
Speaker 1: me before and it didn't end well for them, yea,
Speaker 1: for them, they're not in well for them. But I'm
Speaker 1: checking the camera and now they're filming a TV show.
Speaker 1: They're filming that show Dave. Right. They film it right
Speaker 1: across the street from my house, so constantly they're like
Speaker 1: trucks and things and people outside of my house. The
Speaker 1: Love that show Love Dave.
Speaker 2: And I've never seen it. I'm not I'm not saying
Speaker 2: silent because they don't like it. I'm sure it's amazing
Speaker 2: and I've heard great things. I just haven't seen it.
Speaker 2: I'm putting it on that.
Speaker 1: Funny got tremendous actor. But Love is a writer on
Speaker 1: that show. And I remember checking my cameras one day
Speaker 1: and outside they leave the porta potties, and I was
Speaker 1: so pissed off about this. The porta potties were right
Speaker 1: in front of my house, so my security camera is
Speaker 1: looking right at the entrance of the porta potties. And
Speaker 1: I checked the cameras one day and who was standing
Speaker 1: right outside of the porta potty is Love. Love is
Speaker 1: standing right outside. So I TEXTEDM a picture of it.
Speaker 2: How did you know?
Speaker 1: Just because very it's very.
Speaker 3: Clearly dance right before he has to use the bathroom.
Speaker 3: That's recognizable from a far.
Speaker 1: I think it was when he was You could see
Speaker 1: this photo.
Speaker 2: That's pretty clearly loved. I mean he's wearing a mask,
Speaker 2: like in a very generic outfit, and I can still
Speaker 2: tell it's him. That's kind of.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but look out, Look at the disrespect, look at
Speaker 1: the trash cans, the porta potties. I have the most
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me?
Speaker 2: Right outside your house?
Speaker 1: Right outside of my house? So mad? I was so upset,
Speaker 1: but love brightened the You.
Speaker 3: Send him a picture of himself waiting to use the
Speaker 3: bathroom that maybe is my nightmare?
Speaker 1: And he's looking and I say, is this you? And
Speaker 1: he goes, yeah, and he goes, is this your house?
Speaker 1: I'm staring at Yes, he goes, I thought so, I wasn't.
Speaker 2: I just want to add that that we've talked about
Speaker 2: love waiting outside of porter body. But he's a really
Speaker 2: really great writer. Oh yeah, super talented guy. Love having
Speaker 2: him around. He's so so fun love and really smart.
Speaker 1: Love which is a little Dicky song, I love love
Speaker 1: and I cuddle for enjoyment. That's one of his one
Speaker 1: of his Yeah, anyway, I'm Dave.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, does his laugh sound like like that.
Speaker 3: If he gets if he's really in it, I'm telling you,
Speaker 3: it goes high pitched like a little baby and like
Speaker 3: the greatest joy. It's the most innocent, beautiful laugh. That's
Speaker 3: gonna be the goal. We're gonna get love on the show.
Speaker 3: We're going to interview him about and get.
Speaker 2: Him and we're gonna tickle him. We're gonna try to
Speaker 2: get to giggle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so he's gonna run over to where he's taping and.
Speaker 2: Just it's gonna have them, of course, consensual tickling.
Speaker 3: I really have so many questions for you guys about
Speaker 3: tell you. I watched because I was like, Zoe, you
Speaker 3: are a very accomplished musician. Have you ever played them before?
Speaker 2: I'd never even heard of them, Honestly, I've never heard
Speaker 2: of this instrument. Also, they so it was so funny. Okay,
Speaker 2: So when they went back and post and made it.
Speaker 2: Because we had the bells, we did practice with bells
Speaker 2: that had we had a bell expert. I think kind
Speaker 2: of teach us a little bit of something they didn't
Speaker 2: have any what do you call the like ding dongs
Speaker 2: inside ding dong thing inside? I don't know what you
Speaker 2: call it mallet whatever. They were removed, so the bells
Speaker 2: made no sound. And then when they went back, so, okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: there's going to be a difference in terms of obviously
Speaker 2: each bell is going to be different and they're all
Speaker 2: different pitches and how you ring the bell it will
Speaker 2: sound better or worse and ring out. But they're not
Speaker 2: going to be like flat just because each one is
Speaker 2: just the pitch it is. So. But then when they
Speaker 2: went back and ad it sound to make everyone sound bad,
Speaker 2: they made them all sound flat, like they were flat,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, well, this is just not like, at
Speaker 2: least in my experience, I would I would certainly defer
Speaker 2: to a handbell expert, but that's just not how they're
Speaker 2: gonna sound bad. But of course it really emphasized how
Speaker 2: bad we all were and how wonderful Winston was. Oh,
Speaker 2: our wonderful producer Joel has just told us that it's
Speaker 2: called the tongue of the bell. Okay, it makes the bell.
Speaker 4: Feel so, yes, the tongue of a bell. Oh, it's
Speaker 4: called the clapper.
Speaker 2: Okay. Joel, our wonderful producer, has told us that the
Speaker 2: tongue of the bell is called the clapper.
Speaker 1: The clapper so folks go out there and get yourself
Speaker 1: some handbells and try to try to practice, and will
Speaker 1: I will, I will warn you though I now I
Speaker 1: can't speak for Zoe. Actually I can speak for Zoe.
Speaker 1: Her hands were fine playing the handbell. My hands. I
Speaker 1: don't know why we're swollen.
Speaker 2: I think I think I know why. It did hurt
Speaker 2: to hold the the the handles for a long time
Speaker 2: and you were having to play them a lot, and
Speaker 2: you had to do the like three in one, the
Speaker 2: three in hand and the two in hand and stuff that.
Speaker 2: You know, you have to get used to it, so definitely,
Speaker 2: and you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but for all the handbell people out there, for
Speaker 1: all the handbell folks out there, we're going to change
Speaker 1: the name. Yeah, the name is no longer called the
Speaker 1: three in Hand. It's called the Winston.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just know that.
Speaker 1: It's just let's just make that a popular thing.
Speaker 2: Now, make the chan we put handbells on the map.
Speaker 1: I think we did. I think we did. It did
Speaker 1: for me in a few churches.
Speaker 2: I've never heard of them, and I am a musician.
Speaker 2: So there you go. That's either embarrassing or just maybe reassuring.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure I'm not.
Speaker 1: Gonna lie to you. I did get pretty decent at it.
Speaker 1: Though I did get pretty I started to really enjoy
Speaker 1: doing it. Like, once the episode was done, I was
Speaker 1: kind of I thought that I was going to go
Speaker 1: and buy a set and yeah, and I'd planned on
Speaker 1: it because you know, there, I don't. I don't have
Speaker 1: too many hobbies outside of what we do for a living.
Speaker 1: I don't, like, I don't play any instruments. I don't.
Speaker 2: Your hobbies are like creating other shows and like meeting,
Speaker 2: writing podcasts and making you are always busy with something.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a creative person.
Speaker 2: You're very creative.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but like if you guys can't see this, I'm
Speaker 1: sure there'd be a photo at some point. Zoe has
Speaker 1: one hundred and fourteen guitars.
Speaker 2: But that's another that's my Like that's a job, so
Speaker 2: that is a profession. But yeah, like no, it's sometimes
Speaker 2: like it's hard to find things out Like if your
Speaker 2: profession is something that's fun, it is like you're like, well,
Speaker 2: I'm kind of busy with something that's fun that like
Speaker 2: actually is my work. So but yeah, it's hard to
Speaker 2: find hobbies outside you know, your profession if it's fun.
Speaker 1: That was going to be a professional cool guy you are.
Speaker 1: You are teach losers how to be a cool guy
Speaker 1: like me.
Speaker 2: That's kind of what you did in this episode.
Speaker 1: That's what I tried to do. After rewatching it, I
Speaker 1: realized I was a dork. Was like not Winston low Mourn,
Speaker 1: just watching, going like Jesus, you took yourself way too seriously.
Speaker 1: I wish I had played, you know, even going back
Speaker 1: and looking at playing a character a certain way, I
Speaker 1: watched it and I wished it was season six Winston
Speaker 1: or seventh Winston playing the handbells, because it would have
Speaker 1: been such a it would have been a different episode.
Speaker 1: I believe.
Speaker 3: Later you were actually trying to be good to sell
Speaker 3: the fact that you were really good and very serious
Speaker 3: about it.
Speaker 1: Bird Shirt Winston would have been would have been I'm
Speaker 1: shocked we never brought bells back later on.
Speaker 2: Actually yeah, yeah, because that this was like a this
Speaker 2: This this was a this was like a foreshadow foreshadow
Speaker 2: yes of Bircher Winston.
Speaker 1: Which reminds me of something. And we skipped over, we
Speaker 1: skipped over something very very important on this show. What
Speaker 1: we love to do, well, what Hannah loves to do
Speaker 1: is find the bear Hannah.
Speaker 3: Bear Hunt, Bear Bear. I watched the episode, didn't find
Speaker 3: the bear, So then I go after I've looked for myself,
Speaker 3: then I go online to see and what was interesting
Speaker 3: is that nobody else has found the bear either, and
Speaker 3: I was like, found it, But then I went back
Speaker 3: and found it.
Speaker 1: I found two bears.
Speaker 3: Okay, So can I tell you the bear that I
Speaker 3: found on my second rewatch last night? I got the
Speaker 3: bear is actually a picture in Winston's room a standing
Speaker 3: bear looks kind of like a grizzly bear. And that's
Speaker 3: when Jess is like reminding Winston near the end of
Speaker 3: the episode, like, these are just kids being kids, to
Speaker 3: be mindful what you say of them. And there's a
Speaker 3: huge picture of a.
Speaker 1: Bear, massive picture right behind right behind just his head,
Speaker 1: that's right. But right before that, during the nick in
Speaker 1: in Schmidt fight, Schmidt goes in his room and the
Speaker 1: refrigerator is right there. As he opens the door, there's
Speaker 1: a bear right there.
Speaker 3: So here's the thing, though, we need to have some
Speaker 3: bear hunt rules because I've already used that one. Now, well,
Speaker 3: so how many times can we use the fridge?
Speaker 1: Bear doesn't mean the fridge will always be used in
Speaker 1: an episode that's.
Speaker 3: Well, it's there a lot of it, So I'm going
Speaker 3: we have to come up with some like the barefoot
Speaker 3: thing from Wedding the wedding episode. I'm going to come
Speaker 3: up with some real hard and fast rules, guys, or
Speaker 3: we can't reuse.
Speaker 2: You said, though, where's the other one?
Speaker 3: But he's sing the fridge bear and then the bear
Speaker 3: picture hanging in Winston's room, and but I'd already used
Speaker 3: the fridge bear. So I'm going to come up with
Speaker 3: some real, uh, some real rules. And when as Merriweather
Speaker 3: is on at the end of this season of our podcast,
Speaker 3: I'm going to ask her if this was all intentional,
Speaker 3: because I'm a little obsessed with finding this bear.
Speaker 1: And I think that's important.
Speaker 2: I want to say we had some great guest stars
Speaker 2: as the kids in this episode, Raven Goodwin, Key Hong Lee,
Speaker 2: and Esther Povitsky. They were really fantastic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we also had Tiffany Ariani as well.
Speaker 2: Oh, Tiffany Ariani.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I have something very exciting for you guys. Actually,
Speaker 3: when we come back from the break, I reached out
Speaker 3: to Esther and she sent me a few voice notes
Speaker 3: about her memories of shooting bells and she spilled some
Speaker 3: to you guys, we sho. You know what's funny is
Speaker 3: that I can't figure out how I know Esther. So
Speaker 3: here's the thing. I rewatched the episode and or watched
Speaker 3: the episode, to be honest with you, I don't know
Speaker 3: if I've ever seen it before. And I'm like, is that.
Speaker 2: Esther?
Speaker 3: Like I didn't know she was ever on it, because
Speaker 3: I wasn't on the episode with her, you see what
Speaker 3: I'm saying.
Speaker 2: And I know there are also all these people who
Speaker 2: came on our show as kids, like when they were
Speaker 2: in middle school and then I don't or they were
Speaker 2: like eighteen, but they looked young and I don't, and
Speaker 2: they're like, hey, I was on your show, and I
Speaker 2: was like, oh, when you were a child, Like it's
Speaker 2: hard you know, have a mustache? Yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: So like I met Esther at a party many years
Speaker 3: later and we said like hey, and we chatted and
Speaker 3: that was it. So it's not like we know know
Speaker 3: each other or kick it like when I and I
Speaker 3: was like, I think I got her number at that
Speaker 3: party just because we like chatting to each other. So
Speaker 3: it was almost like a cold text that I sent her,
Speaker 3: right and I've seen her shows. She made a show
Speaker 3: called Loan Together. She's on doll Face on Hulu right now.
Speaker 3: She's super talented. She's done like, you know, stand up specials.
Speaker 3: But it was almost like a cold text where I
Speaker 3: was like, hey, I had no idea you were a
Speaker 3: New Girl because I wasn't on that episode with you.
Speaker 3: Do you remember anything? Y'all want me to play these
Speaker 3: voice notes?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: Please, yeah, as long as they're appropriate.
Speaker 3: They're appropriate.
Speaker 2: There I was in them.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, all right, there we go.
Speaker 1: There's two.
Speaker 5: Okay Ski, stand up comedian and original star of New
Speaker 5: Girl the Belt episode. I just wanted to say, this
Speaker 5: was my first ever TV job, and I literally felt
Speaker 5: like a movie star when I found out that I
Speaker 5: got it. I was so excited and then quickly became
Speaker 5: really sad and upset because we had to learn, actually
Speaker 5: learn how to really play the handbells. Because when I
Speaker 5: read the script, I was like, obviously we're not going
Speaker 5: to learn it, we'll just fake it. No, we had
Speaker 5: like a really strict, serious teacher, and I was struggling
Speaker 5: so hard with it. I remember calling my parents crying,
Speaker 5: being like I just wanted to be an actress, like
Speaker 5: I don't know how music, like.
Speaker 1: I can't do this, okay second part.
Speaker 5: And also I remember Lamarne had actually seen me do
Speaker 5: stand up before at the comedy Store and told me
Speaker 5: and was like.
Speaker 2: Yeah, i've seen you.
Speaker 5: You actually bombed. And then Zoe was standing right there
Speaker 5: and she was like, well, that's not very nice to say,
Speaker 5: and like she felt so bad for me, and then
Speaker 5: lamour I was like, no, no, no, she bombed really gracefully.
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, thank you.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I was just right before you played
Speaker 2: the voice though.
Speaker 1: I was just about to explained that. So what she's
Speaker 1: leaving out of the story is that it was her.
Speaker 1: It was her first time doing stand up in La
Speaker 1: and I was also doing stand up, and she when
Speaker 1: she went up, it was part of her bit was
Speaker 1: that she was bombing and she was telling really bad
Speaker 1: jokes on purpose. At least that's what I thought the
Speaker 1: bit was. And because people were well, because that's what
Speaker 1: she kept saying, she kept saying it. She kept going, well,
Speaker 1: this is good and her if you haven't seen her
Speaker 1: stand up, her delivery sometimes at least back then, was
Speaker 1: very dry and people were laughing their asses off, but
Speaker 1: it was like telling intentionally bad jokes. At least that's
Speaker 1: what I thought was happening. So when I said she bombed,
Speaker 1: I thought she would understand that that's that was kind
Speaker 1: of I thought that was the bit. I thought, that's
Speaker 1: what she was doing. And glad friends who are comedians
Speaker 1: and that's what their bit is. They'll go on stage
Speaker 1: and they'll just bomb as hard as they can and
Speaker 1: the commute in the crowd are laughing their asses off.
Speaker 2: Like some of Jim Heidecker had. Did you ever see
Speaker 2: him do that stand up show where his whole thing
Speaker 2: was that he was a bad stand up and he
Speaker 2: kept like looking at his like notes in a really like,
Speaker 2: I mean, beautifully awkward way. It was like just great acting.
Speaker 2: And then he'd have his wife plant it in the
Speaker 2: audience and the mean jokes about her, and then she'd
Speaker 2: get up and walk out, and it was like such
Speaker 2: a good but people would actually think it was real.
Speaker 2: It was so well done that people would like get
Speaker 2: really uncomfortable.
Speaker 1: My buddy, my buddy, and then we'll move on. But
Speaker 1: my buddy, Rick Lassman is the exact same way. He
Speaker 1: I think he's banned from multiple comedy clubs like because
Speaker 1: of he's so funny though, like he's like people come
Speaker 1: to see him, but his bits are so out there.
Speaker 1: He's uh. He he does a bit where he has
Speaker 1: a hoodie on and he comes out talking and it's
Speaker 1: funny and it's like it's just charismatic, it's just a
Speaker 1: casual conversation. And then he'll pull the hoodie down and
Speaker 1: he's got ear pods in and he'll pull the in
Speaker 1: and he's like, all right, mom, okay, all right, Mama,
Speaker 1: talk to you later, and they'll put the ear pods
Speaker 1: away and then he'll start the show. So the entire
Speaker 1: time everyone was like, wait, what he'll do. He'll do
Speaker 1: a bit with a puppet where he'll go you guys
Speaker 1: like puppets and everybody's like yeah, and then he goes cool,
Speaker 1: me too, and then he'll just move on.
Speaker 2: Like wait, why did they ban him?
Speaker 1: Because a lot of times when I think, I think,
Speaker 1: he goes and he gets so obscure, obscure on stage
Speaker 1: that some of the crowd isn't they don't know, they
Speaker 1: don't know, they don't catch on, and he's so obscure,
Speaker 1: like I'm talking like it's he goes so far left.
Speaker 1: He's one of the funniest people I've ever I've ever
Speaker 1: been around. But and you go to do his podcast
Speaker 1: at some point. Yes, you guys should do his podcast
Speaker 1: at some point. It's really funny and weird.
Speaker 2: He hasn't invited me yet, but he has.
Speaker 1: I just I just haven't relayed the message yet.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, well now he knows.
Speaker 3: I'll go the missing link.
Speaker 2: I'll do it.
Speaker 3: It is interesting with those these incredible guest stars we've
Speaker 3: had over the years who like this was their first
Speaker 3: For a lot of them, it was their first teaming job.
Speaker 2: Esther you are a Star.
Speaker 1: You are a Star.
Speaker 2: You are a show.
Speaker 3: She has like her own now stand up special on
Speaker 3: Comedy Central.
Speaker 2: I mean she's like she's she's worry about yeah.
Speaker 3: But she said the big thing was she got to
Speaker 3: like order lunch from a restaurant every day. She said
Speaker 3: that was like so crazy and cool. And then when
Speaker 3: she went the hair and makeup trailer, she said she
Speaker 3: remembered Zoe you playing a Jim Don't.
Speaker 1: Say Jim Crow Jim Croachy. Yeah, Jim.
Speaker 2: No Jim Crow songs Jim Crochy.
Speaker 3: You know, she remembers him playing it like it was
Speaker 3: so vivid, like you remember your first time ever on
Speaker 3: a set.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I was saying, seventies singer songwriter. If you
Speaker 2: don't know who he is, he's saying like New York's
Speaker 2: not my home and operator lots of like seventies singer
Speaker 2: songwriter style hits from Jim Crow Chee Crow cheap.
Speaker 1: I gotta go and download some Jim croche.
Speaker 3: But she was talking about that twist right her first
Speaker 3: TV job, and it felt so exciting. She was a
Speaker 3: fan of Bring It On, and the director's there and
Speaker 3: it was this huge thing. But then she had to
Speaker 3: actually learn the handbells.
Speaker 2: But I don't know why they made anybody learn, And
Speaker 2: I don't know why because honestly, they just took the
Speaker 2: clapper out of the belt.
Speaker 3: I don't know either, But there was a I do
Speaker 3: remember coming to work the next week and Lamore telling
Speaker 3: me two things that his wrists still hurt, yeah, and
Speaker 3: that the bell's instructor was quite intense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like life or death. It was like, and you know,
Speaker 1: us being actors, we especially Zoe at that time, this
Speaker 1: is one this is my first regular job. But Zoe
Speaker 1: had done so many things you probably already knew. It's
Speaker 1: not necessary for us to actually learn how to play.
Speaker 1: We know what's going to happen in post.
Speaker 2: Like varying degrees of those things. Yeah, and especially on
Speaker 2: a TV show, like you're shooting so fast, there's no
Speaker 2: way they're going to like use the audio. I mean,
Speaker 2: I'm sure they wanted it to look. The main thing
Speaker 2: is they wanted to like look like people can play,
Speaker 2: but the kids are supposed to not be that great
Speaker 2: right playing. I think it was partially because they were like, okay,
Speaker 2: well you guys have time. I remember, you know Lamar
Speaker 2: and had to look like he was really good right away.
Speaker 2: I thankfully was just conducting. That was easy for me
Speaker 2: because I did choir from the time I was like
Speaker 2: a small child.
Speaker 1: Did you have a choreographer? Because you did you did
Speaker 1: dance in one part multiple.
Speaker 2: You have a choreographer for that?
Speaker 1: I'm asking you.
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no, no choreographer.
Speaker 3: Were just like do some funny because it circles back
Speaker 3: to like the Nick Schmidt storyline about the learning the
Speaker 3: handbells thing, which is did you need the fancy fix,
Speaker 3: like did you need to really learn how to play
Speaker 3: handbelts or.
Speaker 2: Did it just we're doing a movie about handbells. If
Speaker 2: we were doing a movie about handbells. Then yeah, we
Speaker 2: got to learn some handbells, but this episode probably no.
Speaker 2: But like I get why, you know, normally you have
Speaker 2: to learn a little something. But but they probably you know,
Speaker 2: there probably weren't that many handbell teachers available, and you know,
Speaker 2: probably the woman who was teaching us was like, this
Speaker 2: is a chance for exposure for this instrument and maybe
Speaker 2: be you know, she was, she was serious. I didn't get.
Speaker 2: I didn't work with her very much because again I
Speaker 2: was conducting. But in terms of you know what, I
Speaker 2: will say this, this is just a pivot, but I
Speaker 2: was I was going to say this earlier that like,
Speaker 2: if you go into a house that's been jerry rigged
Speaker 2: for like, you know, thirty you know, you have a
Speaker 2: guy that's like Nick but like older, and he's been
Speaker 2: just jerry rigging his house for thirty forty years. That
Speaker 2: house is a messed up house. You gotta you have
Speaker 2: to fancy fix. Sometimes you gotta fancy fix. Sometimes it's
Speaker 2: cool to have that, you know, it's great, it develops creativity,
Speaker 2: but like sometimes you just got to call in a plumber.
Speaker 3: You know, are like electrical things. Let's just leave that
Speaker 3: let's not mess with signs, you know, so let's.
Speaker 2: Not mess with that.
Speaker 1: So if you had to pick sides in this, Nick
Speaker 1: in Schmidt Beef, whose side just just left or right?
Speaker 1: You know? Nick Schmidt? Whose side? Would you?
Speaker 2: Can we have a disclaimer with it?
Speaker 1: Sure?
Speaker 2: Small disclaimer, okay, because I'm like kind of fifty to fifty,
Speaker 2: Like I think it's great and so creative that Nick
Speaker 2: can fix things in that weird way like it's it's great,
Speaker 2: but ultimately, like you have to like that water bottle
Speaker 2: situation above the toilet, was that was that was creative,
Speaker 2: but but not something that you don't want your toilet
Speaker 2: like you know, what was the water bottle? Like?
Speaker 1: Yeah, was the was the.
Speaker 2: Water passing through that water bottle? Like what was going
Speaker 2: on there? I'd actually like to talk to a real plumber,
Speaker 2: but yeah, you got to hire you got to hire
Speaker 2: a professional because otherwise, you know, eventually, like it's great,
Speaker 2: I'm on the side of like Jerry rig for now,
Speaker 2: uh for you know, to get us through the next
Speaker 2: few days while we wait for the plumber, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean?
Speaker 3: Right as a stop get for me. I don't mind, Like, ay,
Speaker 3: you can if you can fix it and then I
Speaker 3: don't know any different. Great, But if I have to now,
Speaker 3: like in this episode, turn on a faucet so I
Speaker 3: can use the bathroom, No, sir, we're calling a plumber.
Speaker 3: If I have to like do some weird, extra random
Speaker 3: step that I always have to remember and then remind
Speaker 3: people coming to my house to me, that is not fixed.
Speaker 3: You have no, just created more work for me and
Speaker 3: things I have to remember in an abnormal situation. But
Speaker 3: if you fixed it, and I can't tell the difference.
Speaker 1: But I will say this, God, what do you think? Lamar, Well,
Speaker 1: I'm on the side of of Schmidt. I'm on the
Speaker 1: side of Schmidt just but I'm on the side of Schmidt.
Speaker 1: If we had owned the loft, yeah, we didn't own
Speaker 1: the loft, So why why was the creepy landlord not there?
Speaker 3: They should have been calling the landlord.
Speaker 2: That's why fix it because he's kind of creepy.
Speaker 1: Maybe oh yeah, yeah, he wanted to. Later on we
Speaker 1: find out that.
Speaker 3: But some people really do like the challenge, so they're
Speaker 3: not going to call the landlord because they're just like, no,
Speaker 3: this is like I'm not going to bother anybody. I
Speaker 3: can figure it out and they have.
Speaker 2: The same personality type that doesn't like to read directions.
Speaker 2: That's like things direction Reading directions is some kind of
Speaker 2: you know, weakness.
Speaker 3: That feels like a nick And I'm gonna.
Speaker 2: Say, like, Okay, so my boyfriend is a contractor and
Speaker 2: really good at fixing stuff, and he's like, you know,
Speaker 2: call the plumber like somethings a plumber like he can
Speaker 2: do a fix, but he's like a lot of times
Speaker 2: you need somebody who just does this, that's their thing,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I think if I think if your boyfriend
Speaker 1: did it, he do he do a really fancy fix.
Speaker 1: I've seen the shows.
Speaker 2: He does a fancy fix for everything, you know, like,
Speaker 2: but he he can fix stuff himself. But there are
Speaker 2: you know, there are certain jobs. You know, a certain
Speaker 2: like there's a certain level at which you're like you
Speaker 2: got to call the plumber, you got to call the electrician,
Speaker 2: you gotta call you know, whoever it is that's going
Speaker 2: to do the super fancy.
Speaker 1: Fis and shout outs all the plumbers and electricians out there.
Speaker 1: Where would I be without you? The amount of times.
Speaker 2: You'd be in the dark with no running water.
Speaker 1: I'd be in the dark with a backed up toilet.
Speaker 5: Alco.
Speaker 1: Also another interesting thing I found out about that that
Speaker 1: this episode brought up for me the argument again between
Speaker 1: it again, it was so funny and so informative. A
Speaker 1: Midori sour.
Speaker 2: Oh, that was so funny because that was a Madi.
Speaker 1: Believe it. I didn't. I didn't have my first drink
Speaker 1: until I was twenty two, and which is apparently very late.
Speaker 3: That's great alcoholic beverage. Yeah, first alcoholic parts for twenty
Speaker 3: two years. No, no, no, drink other stuff.
Speaker 1: I drink other stuff. Yeah, yeah, this is not out there.
Speaker 1: Water warm milk, nipple milk. And I was a baby. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that was my first drink at a bar. And
Speaker 1: then I was a sour straight up?
Speaker 3: Or is it a cocktail?
Speaker 2: I know it's it's a cocktail, So it's a it's
Speaker 2: a influences a melon liqueur, and then a sour mix
Speaker 2: is like lemon, sugar, something like that. So it'd be
Speaker 2: like there's a lot of drinks that are like sour.
Speaker 2: It has like a sour mix as sugar, lemon, and
Speaker 2: then you mix it with with something that's already sweet,
Speaker 2: like Midoria, it gets extra sweet.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's is it like a high ball or a
Speaker 3: Martini glass, like, what's the presentation on it?
Speaker 1: Both I've had it in Martini glasses before. In fact,
Speaker 1: I used to order it. I used to order it
Speaker 1: so much. I thought I was cool until I started
Speaker 1: getting around like grown ups that would or a drink.
Speaker 1: You would hear people go I'd take a Scotch neat,
Speaker 1: or I'll take this, or I'll get a margarita or
Speaker 1: something I don't know, and I would go, hey, I'll
Speaker 1: take a and the bartenders sometimes would look at me
Speaker 1: like what like the guys with it like what.
Speaker 2: I didn't like automatically get carted If you order that,
Speaker 2: you look because it's like it's like the drink that
Speaker 2: that somebody would order if you like.
Speaker 3: You know, the conversation goes sour, and then the bartender goes.
Speaker 1: Yeah again, I just got carted at the door. H Yeah.
Speaker 1: Another thing that I realized about this episode that was
Speaker 1: interesting in how it correlated to my life was the
Speaker 1: sushi bit. The amount of sushi that Schmidt was eating
Speaker 1: and ordering. I thought that was normal at the time. However,
Speaker 1: I hadn't had sushi at that point in my life.
Speaker 1: While forming this episode, I had never had sushi and
Speaker 1: I later on went to get sushi, and I said
Speaker 1: to myself, that amount of sushi that Schmidt had ordered
Speaker 1: was a was a damn party platter. That was a lot.
Speaker 1: You can't eat that much.
Speaker 2: That's a lot of that. Would you'd be very full?
Speaker 2: I think I think he was. I think the I
Speaker 2: guess maybe the joke was that he had ordered a
Speaker 2: party platter, thinking you guys were going to go in
Speaker 2: on it, and you guys were like, nah, we don't
Speaker 2: want sushi.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, maybe that was what it was, because I
Speaker 1: think that's so scrummy. I just remember that line was
Speaker 1: so scrubby, so stupid.
Speaker 3: Eight worth of sushi for yourself.
Speaker 1: Well have you been well have you? Have you been
Speaker 1: a sugarfish?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I know you get rolls.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right there, it's a fancy fish lotus berry relax.
Speaker 1: Have you guys ever used that?
Speaker 2: No? There were so many funny Schmidt lines in this,
Speaker 2: like shout out to our write, our writing team, and
Speaker 2: love roquet. Schmidt is on fire. Like I think the
Speaker 2: Schmidt and Nick exchanges are just so perfect and so
Speaker 2: many good Yeah.
Speaker 1: Lotus relaxed. I looked it up. I couldn't find it.
Speaker 2: I think they just made it up. They made up
Speaker 2: all kinds of things that were so schmitty perfect.
Speaker 3: But the thing about the little kid perfect fight of
Speaker 3: trying to get then the product out of Nick's hair.
Speaker 1: Yes, because he realized he was using it as a
Speaker 1: he was using the conditioner as soap. Yeah, I once
Speaker 1: had I once had an ex girlfriend who who I'll
Speaker 1: do your lodgy for you? Is one particular styles like yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: and I go. And I realized I realized something once
Speaker 1: I went into the laundry room afterwards, take my clothes
Speaker 1: out of the dryer. I said, wait, we run out
Speaker 1: of soap. I said, where's There's no laundry detergent here.
Speaker 1: But on top of the washing machine is the fabric softer. Oh,
Speaker 1: And I said, I said, hey, would you did you?
Speaker 1: Did you? Did you? Did you throw the soap the
Speaker 1: laundry detergent bottle away? And she said no, No, it's
Speaker 1: right there on top of the top of the washing machine.
Speaker 1: I said, I thought, so, yeah, that's that's that's fabric. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's fabric softer. Yeah, that's happened, and that's happened multiple
Speaker 1: times with it once happened with my former cleaning lady. Okay,
Speaker 1: you did an entire entire four or five loads of
Speaker 1: clothes with fabric softener.
Speaker 3: I think you need to separate the fabric softener away
Speaker 3: from the detergent of reoccurring.
Speaker 2: It is it is, I think, mate, you know what,
Speaker 2: A lot of people use dryer sheets, they don't use
Speaker 2: liquid fabric softener.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't use fabric softener at all when I
Speaker 1: do laundry.
Speaker 2: Right, you just had it.
Speaker 1: It's just there. It's just you know, there in case.
Speaker 2: Just in case keep getting Yeah, I think I think
Speaker 2: that's that's the confusion, probably, but you know, yeah, yeah, wow, Okay.
Speaker 3: Competitive nature. That was also a really fun thing to watch,
Speaker 3: like to learn about the Winston character. Do you either
Speaker 3: of you have a very competitive nature?
Speaker 2: No? I mean I love playing games, and I like
Speaker 2: I'll be like, oh yeah, like I'll set out to win.
Speaker 2: But it's but for me, the reason why I like
Speaker 2: playing games, it's like the process of playing games. If
Speaker 2: you're too competitive that you're like mad if you lose,
Speaker 2: you're just not fun to play with.
Speaker 3: So like that'll flip a scrabble board.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no, I know, And you're like, I don't
Speaker 2: want to play scrabble with that person. That's crazy.
Speaker 3: Speaking of games, should we play one right now?
Speaker 2: Let's play one. We're gonna play True American.
Speaker 1: American American. Welcome to True American, where the rules change
Speaker 1: weekly and you leave more confused than when you showed up. Now,
Speaker 1: this week we're playing Nikola Tesla's Problems and Solutions. In
Speaker 1: this week's episode, Nick has a solution for every problem
Speaker 1: in the loft. Today, Hannah's going to come up with
Speaker 1: a problem, and Zoe and myself are going to use
Speaker 1: objects in their immediate vicinity to help her come up
Speaker 1: with a solution.
Speaker 3: Okay, so I genuinely have a problem at the moment,
Speaker 3: I will share it and you tell me what I
Speaker 3: should do to fix it. So myhere, the handle that
Speaker 3: you used to turn the water on came off in
Speaker 3: my hand, and so now there's just like a hole
Speaker 3: in the wall of my shower. And I may have
Speaker 3: somehow misplaced like the handle, the actual handle. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: so I don't know, I don't know where to drive,
Speaker 3: and I know where I left it, but there are
Speaker 3: multiple people sett it on.
Speaker 2: My bicycle and I held held on to it loosely.
Speaker 3: I wanted to get to know it better. Now that
Speaker 3: I've been living a wall and so there's a hole
Speaker 3: in the wall, so that it needs to be inserted.
Speaker 3: I would think to turn so I can get my
Speaker 3: shower to run some water.
Speaker 1: Me.
Speaker 2: I've got a mic. I have a microphone stand here
Speaker 2: right here that I'm using for this podcast. That could
Speaker 2: possibly work.
Speaker 3: Right, we need some ridge thing though, to catch right?
Speaker 1: I could tell you, I could, I could help you
Speaker 1: out here. I can help you out here. You see,
Speaker 1: your problem is that your shower is broken? Correct, And
Speaker 1: what's the real what's the real issue there that you
Speaker 1: can't clean your body? Okay, So instead of fixing that problem,
Speaker 1: I have here a bottle of hand sanitizer. Right, instead
Speaker 1: of showering, you take this hand sanitizer that I have here,
Speaker 1: You take a little a little cloth. I'm holding the
Speaker 1: cloth in my hand. You pour the sanitizer on the cloth,
Speaker 1: and you proceed to aggressively rub your body until it
Speaker 1: is clean. Got it? Problem?
Speaker 2: And then you're probably well, then you're going to create
Speaker 2: another problem. It's called it's also called dry skin because
Speaker 2: hand sanitizers a problem.
Speaker 1: I got a solution for that.
Speaker 2: Okay, you got lotion?
Speaker 1: No, but I do have a candle here right, just
Speaker 1: put the candle.
Speaker 2: Wax all over your body, and then after that you're
Speaker 2: going to be cold. And I have a heating pad
Speaker 2: right here because it's cold in my office, and I
Speaker 2: have it in my lap because the the heater is
Speaker 2: too loud. So you're welcome, Hannah, we fix your problem.
Speaker 3: I feel great. I'm covered in hand sanitizer and wax,
Speaker 3: sitting on a heating pad with a hole in my shower.
