I'm in an especially great mode because 20 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 2: last night I went to UCB, the old UC Beyond 21 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 2: Franklin Upright Systems Brigade the crackers barrel, the uncle crackers barrel. 22 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: That's what it was, a chance where nobody knows that. 23 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: Yep, it's really true. And it was delicious. And my 24 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: friend was like, Hey, they're doing sort of a drive 25 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 2: run of the board game Taboo, which is very fun game, 26 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 2: and they're doing a live performance where it was four 27 00:01:56,280 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: improvisers versus four improvisers with a host. They were going 28 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: to play live Taboo. They're just kind of workshopping it, 29 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 2: maybe as a touring thing, maybe as a TV show. 30 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 2: So I was like sure. So I brought a few 31 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 2: friends and we sit there and it's fun. The improvisers 32 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 2: are young. They were pretty good. They were like funny 33 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 2: enough and competitive enough where it was really interesting. And 34 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 2: at one point, after each round if somebody didn't guess one, 35 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 2: if a team didn't guess one, the host returned the 36 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: audience he goes, what were do you think? They were 37 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 2: trying to get you to guess? And for those who 38 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: don't know Taboo, the idea is you get a card. 39 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 2: It has a word on the top, like rabbit, and 40 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 2: then we'll have five words underneath that you're not allowed 41 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: to say to try to get people to guess rabbit, 42 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 2: so it might say bunny carre it, tortoise. You know, 43 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: it might have just things you can't say cottontail. And 44 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 2: so I knew one that they didn't guess. So I 45 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,839 Speaker 2: said fraud and that was correct. And the host goes, great, 46 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,679 Speaker 2: what's your name? And I go It's Scotty and he goes, 47 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 2: come on up. You're a new contestant. You're joining. I 48 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 2: think they're called Team Taboo Boo, Team Taboo Boo. So 49 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: I joined, and I didn't want to go up. I 50 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 2: actually was doing the like throat cut, I don't want 51 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 2: to be on stage. And then they were like, come 52 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: on up, and then everybody give me a round of 53 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 2: a plus K. 54 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: That is your nightmare. Yeah, And so I said, other 55 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: than the fact that you're incredible at Banana's live. 56 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 2: Events, well, I know what I'm doing. I'm reading news stories, 57 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 2: I'm talking to you. Those are two things I know 58 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: how to do. So I go up and sit and 59 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 2: then they're like and you're up. So I don't even 60 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 2: meet my team. I just sit down. I stand back 61 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 2: up to hear me the carts. Kurt I dominated so hard. 62 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 2: Not only not only did I get by far the 63 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 2: most right bye by far, like the average were probably 64 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 2: three per round. I got seven, but I basically they 65 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 2: gave me the eighth one at the wire. But then 66 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: I just had to stay on the team and we 67 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: never got less than in like five or six and 68 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: the rest of the time. And they started calling the 69 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 2: team Team Scotty like. The host was like, you guys 70 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 2: are not called the boy boys or whatever they were called. 71 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 2: They were like, you're now Team Scotti. The host is like, 72 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: do you play this all the time? I said, I 73 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,919 Speaker 2: have played this one time in the last twenty years, 74 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: like I barely remember the rules. So we win. The 75 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 2: guys team win. People are shaking my hands. The host 76 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 2: thanks me. Then the daughter of the man who created 77 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 2: the game was there and her name's Hillary. She comes 78 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 2: up to me and she goes, you are so good 79 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 2: at this game. Do you want a box like a 80 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,119 Speaker 2: taboo board game? And I said, of course I do cheers. 81 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 2: You probably already have one, right, I go, no, I 82 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 2: don't have one. She goes, you seriously don't have one 83 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 2: of these at your house already. I go, I don't 84 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 2: have taboo. I've played taboo once in my adult life. 85 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: And she's like, are you shitting me. So then I 86 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 2: turn that enough was funny. So she gives me a taboo, 87 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: So now I have taboo in my house. Next taboos, 88 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: she had like twenty of them. She was going to 89 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 2: give him to the winners, but then I smoked everybody. 90 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: I'm telling you they were I believe it. It was 91 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: the funniest thing in the world. 92 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: So your genius levels, Gotti. 93 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 2: No, I'm uh. I am very dumb, but I'm very 94 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 2: good at looking at a word and coming up with 95 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 2: different words for that word, which is all you have 96 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: to be good at. If car pops up, I'm like, 97 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 2: it is an auto, it is a vehicle, and then. 98 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: You know it has a break and a gas pedal. 99 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 2: I had. Convertible was one of mine, and I said, 100 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: and car. You couldn't say top down, so I just 101 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 2: said vehicle without ceiling. And this guy goes convertible and 102 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 2: got it in two seconds. They couldn't get gazebo, which 103 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: is one that I was. 104 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: Like, Zebra's tough. 105 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: It was tough, tough. What do you say? 106 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: What do you say in a park? 107 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 2: I said, structure, backyard, sit in it. White people have 108 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 2: them screened in. It's kind of like a hexagon or oxagon, 109 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 2: and I'm looking at it and they were like shlu wigwam. 110 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 2: One guy said, igloo gotta laugh, which is good. So 111 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 2: then I look and I turned with my taboo box. 112 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 2: After meeting Hillary Hillary Taboo, I don't know what her. 113 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: Last name is. 114 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 2: And who was standing there ready to shake my hand 115 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:26,799 Speaker 2: and congratulate me, Kurt, Oh boy, you couldn't guess this. Honestly, 116 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 2: you don't probably even know great guess. Nick Lache and 117 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 2: Vanessa Lice. I know Nick so from Love is Blind, 118 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 2: but he was in ninety eight degrees a likable guy? 119 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: Yeah is he? 120 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 2: Are? 121 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 1: They the producers of the show. 122 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 2: So they have a Netflix deal. I don't think they're 123 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 2: attached or anything. I think they were watching it because 124 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 2: they host shows together, so I think there's a potential 125 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 2: that they would path for it. So I met Nick 126 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 2: and Vanessa Lache couldn't have been nicer. They knew my 127 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 2: name because they were saying Scott, Team Scott he so 128 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 2: many times. And he was like, how are you this 129 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 2: good at this game? And I was like, I don't know, 130 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 2: but I'm not good at any other board games. I 131 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 2: don't even enjoy board games. And they I'm telling you, 132 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 2: they were so sweet. He's a handsome time. 133 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: Can you tell everybody that you are a showrunner? And no, no, 134 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,239 Speaker 1: God damn it, So then run that show. 135 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 2: Well that's I think. So. Our good friend Molly was there, 136 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 2: and I think somebody else who was the host saw 137 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 2: me outside. I went to a bar next door, came by, 138 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 2: shook my hand and was like, what's up? And he 139 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: used to host all these game shows or are produce 140 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 2: all these game shows? And he's like, what's your deal? 141 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: Say his name? 142 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: His name is Daniel, but I don't want to say 143 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 2: who he used to work for because that person's considered 144 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 2: a monster in the industry. Now okay, But I was like, 145 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: I have some ideas for some segments. I can write him. 146 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 2: I can get him through Molly to you. And he's like, 147 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 2: please do He's like, do you do this? I was like, yes, 148 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 2: I've done game shows. I've done many game shows. I've 149 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: done Bunk. How about that? I did Bunk with Kurt 150 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: Brown older, so kiss my ass. But anyways, I have 151 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: fresh taboo. Now I'm need cffs with the laches. It's 152 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 2: called pointless and shook hands with the laches.

Man, if every time I went to 154 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 2: a live comedy show I came home with a plastic 155 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 2: wrap board game. 156 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: I think you would be making most comedy shows a 157 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: lot better. 158 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 2: Much better.

You know what, 384 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: this guy, Mike Hadzel is thinking out its side of 385 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: the box, and I love this guy. 386 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like it too. 387 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,360 Speaker 1: My first thought is definitely not why can't we train 388 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 1: an otter to do this kind of work? I mean 389 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: my dreams, Yeah, that's my dreams. But I didn't think 390 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: it was possible. Having posted online about his out there 391 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: approach to underwater search and rescue, Hadzell was contacted by 392 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 1: an Arizona zoo with an ideal candidate, an Asian small 393 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: clawed otter called Splash great name.

Hazel told WTSP, 400 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: explaining that the humans emit over five hundred volatile organic 401 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: compounds unique to our species that can be used to 402 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: locate us.

Entrince choose their own stones, 717 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 2: and judges use a measuring device called the Ring of 718 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 2: Truth to ensure that they're no bigger than three inches 719 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 2: in diameter. Each. Competitors allowed three skims, and the stones 720 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 2: must bounce at least twice on water before sinking. I mean, 721 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,719 Speaker 2: come on, that's child's play. Yeah, I can get it 722 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 2: up to twelve.

No, which but 735 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 2: isn't tossing off Masturbata. 736 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's the toss Master. I mean, I'm starting 737 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: to think that maybe stone Skimmers have a bit of 738 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 1: a little sense of humor about this whole thing. 739 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 2: I think so too. 740 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 4: Uh. 741 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 2: Doctor Matthews, who's known as the toss Master, which in 742 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 2: America would be like, I don't know, the sploge Master 743 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,320 Speaker 2: or something told Good Morning Scotland that judges heard rumors 744 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,840 Speaker 2: and murmurings of some nefarious deeds. There was a little 745 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 2: bit of stone doctoring. He said. They had shaped it 746 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 2: so it was perfectly circular and fitted in our three 747 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 2: inch measurer as a piece it's as it's a piece 748 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 2: of metal. I don't think we can blame it too much. 749 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,919 Speaker 2: The problem was we just didn't notice at the time 750 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:05,280 Speaker 2: that they were suspicious circular. Doctor Matthews, the tossmaster, said 751 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 2: lessons had been learned and they would move on to 752 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 2: an even greater event next year where Kurt and I 753 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 2: the Banana Boys can come to Scotland and hosts.
