Speaker 3: Karril Garreff. How are you Karen?
Speaker 4: I mean I'm feeling a strong sense of discovery right
Speaker 4: now between the.
Speaker 3: Two of us. Oh that sounds yeah, it was. I
Speaker 3: opened the show with a real quizzical tone. I love it,
Speaker 3: like I'm ready ready to learn?
Speaker 1: Yeah, like where are we on our own podcast?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Wow? It takes place in a car, We're picking
Speaker 3: up a comic. We're taking a desk to lax. That's
Speaker 3: a great idea.
Speaker 1: This is fascinating. Tell me more.
Speaker 3: Well, I would, except I'm reminded now that you thought
Speaker 3: of it, Karen.
Speaker 1: Oh, maybe that's why I asked that question.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you are experiencing extreme loss of your own memories.
Speaker 1: Which or extreme ego maniacal behavior. Keep on me.
Speaker 3: A lot of people need to have someone else say
Speaker 3: what they've done or what they've thought of to kind
Speaker 3: of boost them back up.
Speaker 1: Who in this car was on wings?
Speaker 3: It was you, Karen.
Speaker 1: Who in this car was in a European car commercial
Speaker 1: doing a stunt driving?
Speaker 3: Hey wait a minute, that was me. But I feel
Speaker 3: like you made mine seem like I'm just like a
Speaker 3: dumb stunt driver guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I was trying to do.
Speaker 3: Oh so your brain that's.
Speaker 1: Trying to make you look dumb.
Speaker 3: That's another thing that ego maniacal like people do. They
Speaker 3: take other people's things. They disguise it as a compliment. Yep,
Speaker 3: and then they're like, oh yeah, remember that posthole you digged?
Speaker 3: That was amazing. Do you still want to do a
Speaker 3: lot of post hole digging? I was fifteen, I was
Speaker 3: helping my mom's friend.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I wasn't trying to do it for a living.
Speaker 1: Yeah no, no, no, I thought you were.
Speaker 3: I think it's one of the best things you've done.
Speaker 3: I mean, comedy, you should do. Comedy is great too.
Speaker 4: Comedy is good, but you excel. I mean you come
Speaker 4: alive when you dig post holes.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you see immediate progress, which, let's be honest
Speaker 3: with your comedy career, there not a lot of benchmarks.
Speaker 1: Did you have one of those special shovels that has
Speaker 1: two shovels on each side to dig those postals?
Speaker 3: Yes, it is the most poorly designed tool if you
Speaker 3: don't have brand new posthole diggers. The Honestly, I'm just
Speaker 3: gonna say that the handles get floppy.
Speaker 1: Are you saying it's bad postal service?
Speaker 3: It's it really is that.
Speaker 1: Maybe there's a reason I'm so stuck.
Speaker 3: Up because you're Yeah, if you're someone that just is
Speaker 3: able to make a postal service joke out of, you know,
Speaker 3: a conversation about manual labor, Yeah, that's the kind of
Speaker 3: mind that should be. I feel like.
Speaker 1: That's what we're appear to do. That's what we're trying
Speaker 1: to do.
Speaker 3: Your brain should be on these stilts that would otherwise
Speaker 3: hold up a Faberge egg fabri fabrige ab.
Speaker 1: Like the June You know what perfume was by Faberge.
Speaker 3: Brute, by fabri, also by men and by men today
Speaker 3: in Los Angeles is the LA Marathon. And come on,
Speaker 3: you guys. I know you want to run until there's
Speaker 3: diarrhea running down your legs like a young Bruce Jenner.
Speaker 3: But some people still have to function in a in
Speaker 3: a metropolitan city, they insist on running through the middle.
Speaker 3: Look at this traffic. Traffic is bumper to bumper, just
Speaker 3: so some people could get some exercise within city limits.
Speaker 3: You can't take that ship to Burbank with your diarrhea shorts.
Speaker 1: Take it over.
Speaker 4: Well, I'm I live in Burbank. Let's take it to
Speaker 4: down where nothing matters.
Speaker 3: Yeah, why don't you take that ship to Downey? Leave
Speaker 3: the sweet people of Bourbank, like Karen and and everyone
Speaker 3: else in legitimate Los Angeles. Leave us alone, Leave us alone.
Speaker 3: I get it. You want to run, and I say
Speaker 3: diarrhea because I think of that one picture of a guy.
Speaker 3: I think he looks like a young stee Buscemi in
Speaker 3: so much pain in the face, and he's like running
Speaker 3: towards the finish line and his legs are just coated
Speaker 3: and I've been running too hard diarrhea.
Speaker 1: I kind of love the fact that where people with
Speaker 1: you people.
Speaker 3: I mean literally, where is the finish line, I'm out
Speaker 3: of curiosity. Turns out I actually want to run a marathon,
Speaker 3: and I'm angry at myself for never having the discipline
Speaker 3: or or free time. What do you I call.
Speaker 1: It the shit discipline.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'd love it. Let's wear this is officially Colon
Speaker 3: Colon the poop episode.
Speaker 4: Let's just try to weave it in. We won't tell
Speaker 4: our guests Bridger Winger that it's officially that. We'll just
Speaker 4: see if he catch catches on.
Speaker 3: Tell me a little bit about Bridger.
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm not sure if I'm pronouncing his last name correctly,
Speaker 4: but he's a very good friend of mine.
Speaker 1: And that's his last name.
Speaker 4: It's Winger, yes, oh yes, Winneger okay, And Bridger is
Speaker 4: a Mormon name, and uh it I looked it up.
Speaker 4: It's commonly the name is Bridger. A twelve truly, I
Speaker 4: think is fascinating.
Speaker 3: A twelve, A twelve with the number.
Speaker 1: Yes, the letter and the number are so all.
Speaker 3: The Bridger Mormons are like a digital human, like a robot,
Speaker 3: A twelve.
Speaker 1: I mean, we can ask him about it. I'm not
Speaker 1: sure if he is religiously Mormon or if he's just
Speaker 1: from Utah.
Speaker 3: I'm not.
Speaker 1: I don't know that much about him.
Speaker 3: His name is Bridger and he's originally from Utah. Yep, Okay,
Speaker 3: it's safe to assume.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it is very safe.
Speaker 3: See up here, yep, there's a Department of Transportation ballard,
Speaker 3: some cones, and uh, it's also people and getting a
Speaker 3: little exercise.
Speaker 4: Now, Christ did you ever work for the city, because
Speaker 4: I didn't know those were called ballards?
Speaker 3: You know, I'm not exactly. I don't know that they are.
Speaker 3: I think it's just a caution sign. A ballard, I'm incorrect.
Speaker 3: A ballard is further along the road here. Ballard is
Speaker 3: one of those yellow poles that are only made to
Speaker 3: back into in a parking lot.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, they're made.
Speaker 3: Of cement on the inside, their metal on the outside. Actually,
Speaker 3: speaking of my manual labor past, once in Austin, I
Speaker 3: was getting paid so little to feature at cap City
Speaker 3: that during the day I picked up a gig painting ballards.
Speaker 3: And I am not kidding.
Speaker 1: Just one color, just yell, It wasn't because your artistic background.
Speaker 3: Drove around the city with a roller and some oil
Speaker 3: based paint. Wow, high gloss. God, they were shiny.
Speaker 1: I bet they were gorgeous ballards.
Speaker 3: I went to art school, Karen, and when Yeah, I
Speaker 3: do bring that up a couple of times a day,
Speaker 3: and I I bring that art ability into my ballard painting,
Speaker 3: even though I know it's just a utilitarian use of paint.
Speaker 1: Look at this fool. Yeah, oh, now you're trapped.
Speaker 3: What do you do with rules when you find out
Speaker 3: about him, lady? Do you just snap him in half
Speaker 3: like a slim gym.
Speaker 4: I love it in Los Angeles if you've never driven here,
Speaker 4: there's a lot of people who think they're going to
Speaker 4: do it their.
Speaker 1: Way, and then like that, lady, they get.
Speaker 4: Trapped in a little circle of cones that somebody got
Speaker 4: out of the car and they're moving the cones.
Speaker 3: That's great, that is amazing.
Speaker 1: It's pretty awesome.
Speaker 3: I hope he had some sarcastic comments for her when
Speaker 3: he got out. So the road is closed.
Speaker 1: The road is closed down there.
Speaker 4: We're what we're trying to do is get right by
Speaker 4: LaBrea and Hollywood, so I think.
Speaker 1: Will be okay.
Speaker 3: Oh I thought he was a Hollywood in Idland. A.
Speaker 1: Uh, well, that's it's you know, that's that block okay
Speaker 1: where the Kimmel Show is.
Speaker 4: Okay, well, he works on the Jimmy Kimmel Show, and
Speaker 4: I guess he's there for work today, Okay, and that's
Speaker 4: where we're picking him up.
Speaker 3: Well, I certainly hope we can get to him. This
Speaker 3: is actually are you nervous?
Speaker 1: No, I don't care about anything.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, Well I'll be the one that cares because
Speaker 3: I'm gonna let it affect my you know, podcasting ability. No, no,
Speaker 3: I will. I am nervous. I'm sweating that we won't.
Speaker 3: That that was a roadblock. I know orange will be
Speaker 3: closed to that would take us directly to him.
Speaker 1: But that's those people are turning down the street that
Speaker 1: just stops.
Speaker 3: Oh my godness.
Speaker 4: Those people don't even know what the age they're doing. Also,
Speaker 4: this is ten minutes fast, Okay, I should tell you that.
Speaker 3: Well, I know to never look at someone's car clock,
Speaker 3: because that's a trick that I've never tried on myself,
Speaker 3: where I I'll wake up or see a clock and
Speaker 3: it lights a fire under my ass to hurry. Yeah,
Speaker 3: even though I know I said it, it's really ten
Speaker 3: minutes earlier. Right, I've never tried that trick on myself.
Speaker 1: It's so stupid.
Speaker 4: All it does actually is make me do math in
Speaker 4: my head while I'm trying to figure out whether or
Speaker 4: not I'm late.
Speaker 3: Which takes more time, and you're later, and I'm always late.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm irresponsible in that way.
Speaker 3: And there's nothing more time consuming than.
Speaker 1: Math, I know, and stressful. Oh oh no, okay, So
Speaker 1: here's what we're gonna be.
Speaker 3: So now you're nervous like I was.
Speaker 1: Yep, because this is truly cut off. But here's what
Speaker 1: we're gonna do.
Speaker 4: Okay, we're gonna pull over up here on Franklin and
Speaker 4: he's gonna walk over.
Speaker 3: Because that's from where he's at.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because he's right down there.
Speaker 3: Okay, the El Capitan is substantially down.
Speaker 1: But he said he was on Hawthorn.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, well I don't know where he is.
Speaker 1: And how did that carget?
Speaker 3: Oh my god, he's gonna have to run a little
Speaker 3: marathon of his own.
Speaker 1: This is crazy. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't I'm a little worried.
Speaker 1: I wonder if we can look back.
Speaker 3: They this is at first, and do you need to
Speaker 3: write history where we are? There are roadblocks keeping us
Speaker 3: from our guest. He is, he's in.
Speaker 1: The spot like he might have to take an uber
Speaker 1: to where we are. This is nuts. Wait I have
Speaker 1: to call him.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, that is job one right now. Oh oh,
Speaker 3: he's going to be upset. Let's see, just for podcasting
Speaker 3: purposes in a car. I guess we should put him
Speaker 3: on speaker. I want to hear the disappointment drama to
Speaker 3: this episode.
Speaker 1: Oh he has already texted me.
Speaker 2: Huh uh?
Speaker 3: Did he say there's no said?
Speaker 4: Everything is a nightmare here? So I'll meet you by
Speaker 4: Sunset and Highland. Maybe that Chick fil a corner?
Speaker 3: Okay, I terrific.
Speaker 1: The thing is, can we get to the Chick fil
Speaker 1: a corner?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Let me?
Speaker 3: Let me see is something.
Speaker 1: He's writing back right now?
Speaker 3: I think I don't think anyone was prepared for how
Speaker 3: the only marathon, while making some people live longer, causes
Speaker 3: others to want to end their lives. I'm gonna go
Speaker 3: that far. That's how much I don't like the marathon.
Speaker 3: It really is bizarre. This is a city that and
Speaker 3: I know it's Sunday, but people have mass This is
Speaker 3: a marathon against Jesus.
Speaker 1: Well, what I think is super weird. Oh look at
Speaker 1: see there's a camera. I wonder if the end is
Speaker 1: near here because a cameraman from ABC seven just walk
Speaker 1: by using his camera.
Speaker 3: He is literally walking. Yeah, which is this going to
Speaker 3: be our first walking podcast?
Speaker 1: No way, I'll quit this podcast.
Speaker 3: If we have to walk, and he will be quitting
Speaker 3: his flight.
Speaker 1: Well, we'll just figure this out, okay as we go.
Speaker 3: You you're calm, You've been in a situation where you've
Speaker 3: managed people. I am a manic, scared child at most
Speaker 3: points in the day.
Speaker 4: I understand that though, because uh, I was just talking
Speaker 4: to somebody about that and it could have been my
Speaker 4: therapist for sure, Thank you, ma'am.
Speaker 1: How kind they still?
Speaker 3: There are some nice people.
Speaker 1: To have the kind of I think we had very
Speaker 1: similar mothers in some ways. Yes, and I as a
Speaker 1: kind of mother that would go make.
Speaker 4: You do things without kind of thinking it through, so
Speaker 4: like it would be like you're fine, go do it,
Speaker 4: and then you'd get in it as a child and
Speaker 4: it would not be okay.
Speaker 1: And then you, as like an eight year old, had
Speaker 1: to figure out how to do.
Speaker 4: Things where there was like adults that were mad at you, right,
Speaker 4: I'm specifically talking about and.
Speaker 3: I just tweeted about that or just learned to not
Speaker 3: trust your mother.
Speaker 1: Exactly, Like this is cut off.
Speaker 3: This is cut off.
Speaker 4: Okay, this is he's gonna have I don't know. I
Speaker 4: guess he's gonna have to walk down here.
Speaker 3: Is there any way we can get Yeah, everything is
Speaker 3: cut off.
Speaker 1: This is hilariously.
Speaker 3: How did you did your get to work? Because they
Speaker 3: were doing this last night? I left the Tomorrow show.
Speaker 3: Come on, yeah, with your electric hot rod. Hi, you're
Speaker 3: a pretty lady. We know that you have a winning formula, which.
Speaker 1: Is your face, your face, and your your Tesla.
Speaker 3: Okay, a lot of people think Tesla ripped off Edison
Speaker 3: or vice versa Edison.
Speaker 1: That's right, because Tesla wanted all electricity to be free
Speaker 1: and they would not let him do that.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, okay, so still is the thing.
Speaker 1: Yes, sorry, I'm so unclear.
Speaker 3: It's quite all right. I'm just gonna just have conversation
Speaker 3: with our audience on our own while you text. We
Speaker 3: are watching some people that are preparing for the No,
Speaker 3: this man is in it. He has no business being
Speaker 3: in it.
Speaker 1: These people are in it?
Speaker 3: How is this man? Look at that man sauntering, he's
Speaker 3: doing it. He has bruises on his leg from walking.
Speaker 3: Oh no, that's a tattoo. It's okay, it's well, he's
Speaker 3: working out so hard that his tattoos are melting. These
Speaker 3: are all people that, Oh, I could totally take that lady,
Speaker 3: the lady in Capriz. Are you kidding you're gonna take her?
Speaker 3: No one's ever accused her of being a fit. I mean,
Speaker 3: normally I don't call people, and this person treats it
Speaker 3: like some sort of a parade. Look at how she's dressed.
Speaker 3: She looks kind of like she's wearing a Von Dutch
Speaker 3: hat and a pink sports spra and I think she's pregnant.
Speaker 1: Yes, she does.
Speaker 3: Look well she does.
Speaker 1: No, I bet you she just likes beer.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, I'm an asshole. Then how quickly you become
Speaker 3: insensitive just by being someone with vision? I am. So
Speaker 3: it's happening right now, and it's happening on sunset. He
Speaker 3: told us to meet us on the street that the
Speaker 3: marathon is occurring, which is very impossible.
Speaker 1: It's literally impossible. But I think what he did was
Speaker 1: walk down from where.
Speaker 3: He was and then discover Also.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're basically having this discovery at the same time.
Speaker 3: Oh, I see, Well, God, why they make him going
Speaker 3: to work on Sunday morning, Well, it's because it's flight.
Speaker 3: That show is demanding.
Speaker 1: That show is going to Austin.
Speaker 4: It's a daily show, okay, which so it's not Oh,
Speaker 4: look at your girlfriend back there.
Speaker 3: Oh is she here in the back of that truck.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Oh my.
Speaker 1: Goodness, what's happening with that lady?
Speaker 3: She is without pants.
Speaker 1: She's not wearing pants everybody, but.
Speaker 3: There's a lady just kind of hanging out of her
Speaker 3: quite literally hanging out of the back of her She's
Speaker 3: one of those you know those vans where it's just
Speaker 3: filled to the brand with newspaper because they are just
Speaker 3: love journalism. She is that kind of a what do
Speaker 3: you call it hoarder, and but she's never hoarded a
Speaker 3: pair of sweats sweat pants apparently, so her her front
Speaker 3: but was sacking over her naked legs and the hatch
Speaker 3: back of the van was just open, and she was
Speaker 3: on the phone, probably a new iPhone. It's always amazing
Speaker 3: when it's like, well, I because I get my phone
Speaker 3: turned off all the time, and it's like it's okay,
Speaker 3: it's normal. But that lady barely is a part of society.
Speaker 3: Yet she has everything all time, minutes and and unlimited data.
Speaker 3: But she lawyer. She has limited pants. I just I
Speaker 3: can't stop talking about how she was naked in the legs.
Speaker 3: This is we're making progress. We're at least going east.
Speaker 3: Hold on, oh Bridge. I just want to apologize beforehand,
Speaker 3: like crazy, yeah I remember now, I remember the La Marathon,
Speaker 3: ruining my year, my day many years ago. All just
Speaker 3: so you can experience a high pulse. It feel better
Speaker 3: than other people.
Speaker 1: I mean. And now the entire city.
Speaker 4: Is like in this weird game where everyone is trying
Speaker 4: to see where they can get to.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't solve the problem. They don't provide a solution.
Speaker 3: They're just like, yeah, we hope you folks don't mind.
Speaker 3: But everything in your life has to stop so some
Speaker 3: guy can get diarrhea pants and some greenstick fractures in
Speaker 3: his foot. And what's that Well, it's like a hairline fracture,
Speaker 3: but kind of like a highway divider instead of a ballard.
Speaker 3: Look at this, follow that, but follow those kids.
Speaker 1: Out of my way, nerds.
Speaker 3: Okay, this is very good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is much better.
Speaker 3: We are just I have a feeling we are going
Speaker 3: to have to backtrack. We've chosen a serpentine route, and uh,
Speaker 3: we're gonna have to probably backtrack that way. We just
Speaker 3: got to get to that damn freeway. Yeah, oh my god,
Speaker 3: this is not looking good. This is a bunch of
Speaker 3: you turns. You're gonna have to tell him to meet
Speaker 3: us here. I think this is as close as we
Speaker 3: can get.
Speaker 1: We are on Orange's Orange.
Speaker 3: And the street we're on I think Lakewood?
Speaker 1: What is this street?
Speaker 3: What is this street? Do you think that when people
Speaker 3: are like, oh, this is like what? How do you know?
Speaker 3: You're Los Angeles? There?
Speaker 1: Orange and Lakewood?
Speaker 3: Yep, We've got to that's good.
Speaker 1: He's very close here.
Speaker 3: And are we am I about to watch this bus?
Speaker 3: Do you turn into the back of me? Yes, he
Speaker 3: would only just be backing into you. Well, this is
Speaker 3: a very special traffic uh oriented episode of Do You
Speaker 3: Need to Ride?
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is this is insane A.
Speaker 3: Lot of times that alienates people that don't live in
Speaker 3: this city because they're like Orange and Lakewood. I don't
Speaker 3: I'm listening to the doll up instead.
Speaker 1: They I can't learn anything from this? Fascinating?
Speaker 4: Is this is you're learning why people in La bitch
Speaker 4: so much about that?
Speaker 3: Yes? Exactly.
Speaker 2: Hold on?
Speaker 1: Can I show you something?
Speaker 3: There's kids in there that hand look.
Speaker 1: At the front wheel that has the spikes like mad
Speaker 1: Max coming out of it.
Speaker 3: Oh, what a weird bus choice.
Speaker 1: This must be a punk rock bus.
Speaker 3: This is a school bus filled with kids. It says
Speaker 3: town ride on it, yet the wheels belong at a
Speaker 3: no means no concert.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is super weird.
Speaker 3: Look at that. That is straight out of Grease.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: When he chops up at tire, that is awesome. Oh
Speaker 3: I wish we got to start adding photos to our podcast.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I could have taken one. It just backed
Speaker 1: up so closely behind me.
Speaker 3: Well we Yeah, there's a lot we need to do,
Speaker 3: and one of them is to somehow provide visuals because
Speaker 3: that was noteworthy. That was visibly noteworthy. And this guy
Speaker 3: in this overpriced Doudy, he's driving under it. He's driving
Speaker 3: under it, he's moving it with his arm, you obligated,
Speaker 3: son of a gun.
Speaker 4: But also he's not gonna get anywhere because he's going
Speaker 4: down to Sunset and it's closed.
Speaker 3: He just needs some Chick fil A or whatever's on
Speaker 3: the corner. So just tell him we're right across from
Speaker 3: the Wellness center at Hollywood High. Don't say that that
Speaker 3: won't help him.
Speaker 1: So we so far I mean, I'm just texting with Bridgers,
Speaker 1: so I'm not helping.
Speaker 3: It's quite all right, It's quite all right. This is
Speaker 3: I knew there would be some occupational hazards with having
Speaker 3: a podcast where we pick people up, where we have
Speaker 3: to go to the airport, where we're driving. Chances are
Speaker 3: gonna get sidetracked and it's not gonna be all you know,
Speaker 3: talking to a guest or fun. Sorry, if your podcast
Speaker 3: has to be all the time.
Speaker 1: Entertaining or two people actually talking.
Speaker 3: Yes, or or providing information applicable to your life, it's
Speaker 3: your fault. You don't live in Los Angeles. If you
Speaker 3: don't live in Los Angeles or New York, you're wasting
Speaker 3: your time. And you're probably happy, and you probably have
Speaker 3: a healthy family, and you're spiritually fulfilled. Like all my
Speaker 3: friends in Missoula, Montana.
Speaker 1: You don't know that they're all spiritually fulfilled.
Speaker 3: No, a lot of them are riddled with darkness.
Speaker 1: You are right, I mean, I feel like that's the
Speaker 1: human condition.
Speaker 4: Wherever you live or wherever you go, that's that that doesn't
Speaker 4: go away because you have nice surroundings.
Speaker 3: A lot of people are chasing happiness and they think
Speaker 3: it's going to be in a relationship or in a job.
Speaker 3: It's in you.
Speaker 1: It's you know what, happiness someone I.
Speaker 3: Read this is a warm gun. I heard it. That's right.
Speaker 1: I heard that in a song.
Speaker 3: Oh, this lady needs us to do.
Speaker 1: Something, too bad, it's not going to happen.
Speaker 3: We're all on our own.
Speaker 4: Oh think so Bridger is a couple of blocks away
Speaker 4: and he's walking to us.
Speaker 1: Oh, isn't that crazy? It's crazy. He's gonna walk the
Speaker 1: marathon route.
Speaker 3: Oh no, I hope does he have bags with him?
Speaker 4: Well, he's they're going to Austin for a couple of days,
Speaker 4: so he probably has a suitcase.
Speaker 3: Oh no, Oh, look at her.
Speaker 4: She's rolling by, and her is she in the marathon?
Speaker 4: There's a woman in a kind of what do you
Speaker 4: call that?
Speaker 1: A lark?
Speaker 3: I've kind of I started calling them all rascal scooters,
Speaker 3: but it is some sort of a you know, an
Speaker 3: assistant's cart. Let's just call it that. She's very popular.
Speaker 3: Everyone's saying hi to her.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm texting him the exact where we are.
Speaker 3: Yes, maybe we should drop a pin. A lot of
Speaker 3: people drop pins. This is so fucked, Yeah it is.
Speaker 3: I had a feeling I mean last night, I had
Speaker 3: trouble sleeping last night because I was thinking about this happening. Yeah,
Speaker 3: So for it to now be happening, okay, it's really
Speaker 3: making me wish i'd slept.
Speaker 1: Because it's gonna happen anyway.
Speaker 3: It happened anyway, which is.
Speaker 4: Kind of bringing me back to what I was kind
Speaker 4: of saying before, which is, you can't you know.
Speaker 1: This shit goes down? Yeah, and that's why we I
Speaker 1: built in. Uh, at least we did, like at least.
Speaker 4: An extra hour for this podcast so that he would
Speaker 4: be on time.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: I think we can still make it.
Speaker 3: I think we can still make it too.
Speaker 4: I mean, who knows, though, who knows what's going to
Speaker 4: happen in this goddamn.
Speaker 3: We have not had a guest miss their flight yet, No,
Speaker 3: have we? I don't think so.
Speaker 1: No, Unless they did, they just didn't tell us.
Speaker 3: Oh I don't want to hear about that. Wow. Sounds
Speaker 3: like I'm not sleeping again tonight. Oh I can see him,
Speaker 3: you can. I wish I knew you know, I was
Speaker 3: red hair one time. I did the Scar Brothers podcast,
Speaker 3: and they did so much research about me. One they
Speaker 3: knew what I looked like. Two they knew my last name,
Speaker 3: and three they knew all these details about my life
Speaker 3: and my interests and brought them up and had things
Speaker 3: to say about them. And they were both on iPads,
Speaker 3: and I was like, oh wow, if I ever have
Speaker 3: a podcast, I'm gonna put that kind of work into it.
Speaker 3: But no, he screw those guys, and screw them for
Speaker 3: putting the pressure on me. Jason Randy, we you know
Speaker 3: how hard it is to just the logistics of there,
Speaker 3: he is there, he is there, he is with his
Speaker 3: beautiful he's got red hair and a nice stride.
Speaker 1: And he looked like he should be, you know, in
Speaker 1: like a j crew. He's so young and he.
Speaker 3: Is well, now I realize that's gotta be someone Karen
Speaker 3: has a crush on. He's handsome, Anthony's filled gusto. I'm
Speaker 3: now alone in the car. Richard's getting in the car.
Speaker 3: I'm exhausted as if I have run the marathon myself.
Speaker 3: I like these guys, they're just walking by smoking. Hi,
Speaker 3: good to meet you. How what is this madness?
Speaker 1: We're in it to win it this morning?
Speaker 3: Let's see.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, let's be safe, can you.
Speaker 3: You might be Yeah, there's the blank and we put
Speaker 3: down the blank. It's a decision you need to make.
Speaker 3: Do you like of dog hairs or safety?
Speaker 2: I prefer Actually it's a toss up for me.
Speaker 3: It is it's usually covered with.
Speaker 2: Some kind of hair. I have safety.
Speaker 3: That's great, good? Okay that ever, well, then you've made
Speaker 3: your decision. That often is the decision. But I'm myself
Speaker 3: am allergic to dogs, so I sometimes when I'm having
Speaker 3: a bad attack, I'd rather be flying through a windshield.
Speaker 2: How are you operating in this car?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Really, it's certain dogs. Pugs, any kind of a
Speaker 3: any kind of a.
Speaker 2: Pug or bulldog type pugs are worthless.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they really are pretty They have little to know where. Yeah,
Speaker 3: they're garbage, they are. There's one fun thing to do
Speaker 3: with pugs, though. If you're ever in a body of
Speaker 3: water where you're waiting in it, and you're holding a pug,
Speaker 3: and you lower the pug towards the water, they will
Speaker 3: start swimming above the water and when you set them down,
Speaker 3: they'll take off like a motor boone.
Speaker 2: Have you done this personally?
Speaker 3: And yes, and I've only done it with that one
Speaker 3: breed of dog. That's something that may be multiple domes.
Speaker 3: Where did this opportunity come from oh in Montana, right
Speaker 3: near the where they shot. A river runs through it,
Speaker 3: and that was my This dog also would get excited
Speaker 3: and you're like that, lady, now do you want to
Speaker 3: make it out and move cold? Done that and the
Speaker 3: dog would get excited and his eyes it was disgusting.
Speaker 3: His eyes would pop out and she had to push
Speaker 3: them back in like that lady that was on Letterman
Speaker 3: in the eighties.
Speaker 4: Sorry, this is all of these people have gone down
Speaker 4: the street illegally.
Speaker 2: I had to drive through a barricade.
Speaker 5: I just gave up eventually because I had to get
Speaker 5: to my parking spot. So I just drove literally threw
Speaker 5: a cone and the police stape. Now, dataul, when did
Speaker 5: you go to work today or late this morning? I
Speaker 5: got there at like ten forty five. I just left
Speaker 5: my car there because I don't have a parking space
Speaker 5: in my apartment.
Speaker 3: Oh wow, that's fair, and they let you do that. Yeah,
Speaker 3: the good people gat at Kimmel.
Speaker 4: Oh, yes, tell us a little bit about your job. Yes,
Speaker 4: you feel comfortable talking about that?
Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, doesn't make you uneasy.
Speaker 2: It makes me incredibly uneasy. Just the thought of it
Speaker 2: makes me shiver. No, it's great.
Speaker 5: It's I've been working there since last September. And what
Speaker 5: do you want to know.
Speaker 3: Is there's a guy named Andy Fisher that used to
Speaker 3: direct it. He doesn't work there anymore, does he not?
Speaker 3: As far as that's my only name. Drop.
Speaker 2: You're a staff writer, right, I'm a staff writer. I
Speaker 2: work with a variety of wonderful people.
Speaker 4: And have you done anything that's been that you can say, Oh,
Speaker 4: I wrote that that's been on the air.
Speaker 1: And people might go on viral those where have you
Speaker 1: influenced culture? And all of oh your mean tweets? Was
Speaker 1: your idea? Good to know? Bridge your winger?
Speaker 2: Wait, listen.
Speaker 5: One of my dreams of being on a podcast is
Speaker 5: being able to say my name correctly in public.
Speaker 1: Okay, please do it, because I just did it.
Speaker 5: Well, because eighty percent of my close friends at this
Speaker 5: point don't know.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, that makes Karen feel better.
Speaker 5: Because and this is my fault, because about two years
Speaker 5: ago I heard somebody correct somebody on their name pronunciation,
Speaker 5: and I just thought, that's the what are you doing?
Speaker 5: Who cares like? They were very mean about it? And
Speaker 5: so I just gave up correcting people on my name altogether. Right,
Speaker 5: and now that's obviously just causing problems because everyone calls
Speaker 5: me Bridger, Winneger or Bridge your Winger.
Speaker 2: It's Bridger Wineger?
Speaker 1: Is it Wineger?
Speaker 3: Wow?
Speaker 2: But it looks like vinegar.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I believe a minute ago you just called
Speaker 3: him Deborah Winger.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm lazy, so I just whatever comes out of.
Speaker 2: Want.
Speaker 1: But is it true?
Speaker 4: Because Sean ted Roch and I looked up some Mormon names.
Speaker 4: One of the ways people have the name.
Speaker 1: Bridger is Bridger A twelve.
Speaker 2: What's that?
Speaker 1: You've never heard of that? Are you? Are you Mormon
Speaker 1: by faith?
Speaker 2: My parents?
Speaker 1: Are your parents? Are? We looked at? I don't he was.
Speaker 1: I think Sean was trying to write a list of
Speaker 1: names for some reason, and he likes to look up.
Speaker 1: He finds Mormon names very interesting because a lot of
Speaker 1: them are kind of like culturally, they're not not ones
Speaker 1: anyone's ever heard of it? Sure, And one of them
Speaker 1: is Bridger A twelve And is it like the letter
Speaker 1: A a dash and the number.
Speaker 2: Twelve sounds like a code name.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 4: I thought maybe that was your name and you had
Speaker 4: just kind of shortened it for Hollywood.
Speaker 2: I dropped a twelve that.
Speaker 3: We should all get plenty of a twelve because it's
Speaker 3: good for your skin. Ye, that's right for your health.
Speaker 3: I'm the guy that comes in with jokes that may
Speaker 3: or may not make sense. Now back to the.
Speaker 5: Conversation you had kept going with that, I would have
Speaker 5: just believed a twelve is item in the.
Speaker 1: Twelve.
Speaker 4: You get it mostly in the American Southwest. No, that's
Speaker 4: just well, that's winegarl.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and Bridger comes from a There was a mountain
Speaker 5: man named Jim Bridger who I think was the like
Speaker 5: the first European to discover the Great Salt Lake.
Speaker 2: And he thought it was the Pacific.
Speaker 3: That was Paul Bunyon.
Speaker 5: That's not I did a lot of things, but he
Speaker 5: did not.
Speaker 2: Salt Lake.
Speaker 3: It really is a huge lake. I last time I
Speaker 3: was there, I was actually an Ogden, But that that
Speaker 3: lake is so impressive.
Speaker 2: It is another planet.
Speaker 3: It's like the ocean. The waves lap onto the beach. Really,
Speaker 3: I don't know. I may have made that up, but
Speaker 3: it's so huge.
Speaker 2: That's kind of true. But it does smell terrible.
Speaker 1: Does it?
Speaker 2: It's yeah, so salty.
Speaker 3: Explain why it's it's what? What is that?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 5: Utah used to be covered by something called Lake Bonneville,
Speaker 5: which like covered essentially.
Speaker 2: The entire state or half of the state or something.
Speaker 2: And I think it was kind of.
Speaker 5: Now I'm just going to say I'm making things, but
Speaker 5: I think it was sort of oceanesque in its saltiness
Speaker 5: and has just kind of receded to the point that
Speaker 5: it's now the Great Song.
Speaker 3: It's so bizarre to me because that is that explain
Speaker 3: is that? Are there other salty lakes in America in
Speaker 3: the middle of not in the United States? As far
Speaker 3: as that, that's so amazing. I wonder what the fish
Speaker 3: are like in there. There are no fish. There are
Speaker 3: no fish.
Speaker 2: Well, there are a lot of brine shrimp.
Speaker 1: Really are also sea monkeys, sea monkeys.
Speaker 3: There are no fish in salt Lake? Is that? Does
Speaker 3: everyone know that? That to me is amazing.
Speaker 2: Maybe there are no I'm just saying things, but me too.
Speaker 2: It just is so it's like so dead.
Speaker 3: That's right, It's like the dead. This podcast has been
Speaker 3: me saying so many empty prom says and facts. They
Speaker 3: have no basis.
Speaker 5: The Great Salt Lake is full of beautiful tropical fish.
Speaker 3: That's what I want to hear.
Speaker 5: Money, money, there's just saw that gold along the bottom.
Speaker 1: No, that's why so salty people money.
Speaker 5: Those oins are just disintegrating into salta.
Speaker 1: Is that where the Bonneville Salt Flats are?
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, so that's where because I saw the Indian
Speaker 4: motorcycle racing movie.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 1: I never saw that The Fastest Indian, which is actually great.
Speaker 2: I've heard it's great. It's a what's.
Speaker 1: His name, Anthony Hopkins?
Speaker 2: Yeah, riding a motorcycle.
Speaker 1: Yeah, true story. He's like the fastest land speed. He
Speaker 1: set the record for the fastest land speed.
Speaker 2: Now in that movie, is he like a seventy year
Speaker 2: old man riding a motorcycle.
Speaker 3: That's exactly what I was saying, and that sounds dangerous.
Speaker 1: Now this is gonna be my chance to make some
Speaker 1: stuff up.
Speaker 3: Let's hear it. Because I.
Speaker 4: Often remember movies and all the different parts, as you know,
Speaker 4: and maybe picked from other movies as well. But from
Speaker 4: what I remember, he was like a middle aged man
Speaker 4: in Australia who was tinkering around with a motorcycle that
Speaker 4: he got to go really fast and then he came
Speaker 4: to set the record. Because the Bonneville Salt Flats are,
Speaker 4: I guess, like the biggest open space where you can
Speaker 4: go crazy speeds and nothing. You just go and then
Speaker 4: slow back down and there's nothing to hit and nothing
Speaker 4: bad happens, and it's perfectly flat.
Speaker 2: It's beautiful.
Speaker 3: So that's the whole mom And then he met an
Speaker 3: Indian in a cupboard. Yes, got on him and he
Speaker 3: was so fast.
Speaker 1: They found an iron giant in the forest.
Speaker 3: It's my favorite with Babe his big blue hawks and strange.
Speaker 1: Talking to the discovery of the lake.
Speaker 3: I yeah, I did. I did stand up on the
Speaker 3: show that you work on in two thousand and three
Speaker 3: on Kimmel. Yeah, and it was actually live back then.
Speaker 2: Oh sure, yeah, so it live.
Speaker 3: In New York, I think when it was taping here,
Speaker 3: so you know, I'd to write out all my jokes
Speaker 3: for Batim and uh and then right before I went.
Speaker 3: He used to have Super Dave Osborne all the short time,
Speaker 3: which is why I thought of that. So I imagine
Speaker 3: an old guy on a motorcycle just being super day.
Speaker 3: They he went along with the mystery Box or whatever
Speaker 3: segment and they said can you do three minutes instead
Speaker 3: of four and a half as I or can you
Speaker 3: come back tomorrow? And I'm like, I can't come back tomorrow. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I'll do last time. So I went out there and
Speaker 3: I just opened with a new joke, and the Q
Speaker 3: card person was jumping up and down and pointing like
Speaker 3: the show was new, so new that whoever told me
Speaker 3: that didn't know they should probably run it by the
Speaker 3: guy who cleared everything with standards and practices. So they
Speaker 3: just bleeped sentences so I'd available online. No, that's the
Speaker 3: only time I've ever had something.
Speaker 2: Removed like that to me personally.
Speaker 3: I don't even have a copy of it, because what's
Speaker 3: sad about it is I felt good. I felt like
Speaker 3: it had gone well sure, and and my friends all
Speaker 3: went to a bar and I'm like, hey everyone, I
Speaker 3: just looked like I was going, fuck shit, fuckis fuck?
Speaker 3: I don't care that I'm on TV, asshole. And then
Speaker 3: my dad called, why did you do that?
Speaker 2: Why did you?
Speaker 3: I didn't They just they didn't know. It was when
Speaker 3: I like had a burst of something. It sounded like
Speaker 3: maybe I swore, and they're like, no, we're not gonna
Speaker 3: risk it.
Speaker 1: It's also because I'm sure they freaked out that it
Speaker 1: wasn't what they exactly knew it was, so and they
Speaker 1: can't risk it there.
Speaker 3: Like, oh, this is one of those guys that's just
Speaker 3: gonna lay down his political views or No.
Speaker 4: It's like FCC finds if you had come out with
Speaker 4: a fuck or a ship or something, you were off script.
Speaker 1: So they were paranoid.
Speaker 2: Yeah this was pre super Bowl.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, my basically my verbal ted flopped out.
Speaker 1: And but you pulled that t out on purpose.
Speaker 3: Some say yeah, some people say some people say, because
Speaker 3: of my romance with JT.
Speaker 1: That was super weird.
Speaker 3: Karen, you may have figured this out. I mean, I
Speaker 3: think we're in the clear and you're getting on an
Speaker 3: airplane and the clear.
Speaker 4: But yeah, we got a Now this is there is
Speaker 4: going to be an element of excitement. Please know that
Speaker 4: this is ten eleven minutes.
Speaker 2: Mine is sixteen minutes fast, and I just don't change.
Speaker 3: It, and we can turn up the air conditioning. I'll
Speaker 3: just turn down the mic. It's been established clearly. Wearing
Speaker 3: a car. Yes, I don't need to have the we
Speaker 3: have a mic that just kind of proves it with
Speaker 3: traffic noise. Oh sure, sure, and you're headed to Austin
Speaker 3: to the show is going to tape their life then yeah, we're.
Speaker 5: Taping five shows next week, so I can't remember the
Speaker 5: name of the theater we're doing it in, but somewhere
Speaker 5: within the heart of Texas, maybe the paramount of you know,
Speaker 5: maybe I'm I started stand up in Austin, Oh. But
Speaker 5: then you would probably know better than.
Speaker 3: About five five years. I wouldn't say that it's not
Speaker 3: a competition.
Speaker 2: I mean it is you.
Speaker 3: I mean, if there were any lone Star trivia in
Speaker 3: this car in the Capital near the Capitol building, oddly
Speaker 3: those are spelled differently. A lot of people don't know
Speaker 3: that's true, Capitol being the I don't know, I'm not
Speaker 3: sure which is anyway, beautiful town. You're gonna love it,
Speaker 3: but you're about to experience Actually that is sounding kind
Speaker 3: of terrify.
Speaker 5: But do you drink for I don't drink, so yeah,
Speaker 5: I'm going to be surrounded by drunk people.
Speaker 1: Good good, good, Well, I know that feeling.
Speaker 3: I'm drunk right now, and I you know what I
Speaker 3: I do. We need a cooler in here. But that
Speaker 3: mic is really I'm just gonna put my hand over it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that the town so many people go forout south by Southwest.
Speaker 3: Now that it's it's gonna be just like what we
Speaker 3: experience with the Halle Marathon. All the streets are blocked
Speaker 3: off and there's just one hundred thousand new people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's they're all drunk.
Speaker 4: And there's a lot of bands that play like there's
Speaker 4: tons of bands in you know, a bunch of different
Speaker 4: bars playing all as you walk down the street.
Speaker 1: And to me when I was there, they just all
Speaker 1: sounded like they all sounded like they were inspired by Incubus.
Speaker 1: It's that kind of feel of like it's like like
Speaker 1: rocky basslines and yeah, heavy bass rock boys that had
Speaker 1: their feelings hurt by their dad.
Speaker 5: And Okay, I was thinking three eleven. I'm sorry Incubis
Speaker 5: is also terrible, but.
Speaker 3: Yes, Incubis is the worst. At least three eleven. They
Speaker 3: have some kind of more reggae ballads where the guy
Speaker 3: where the guy doesn't rap. When I saw three eleven
Speaker 3: live and when the guy wraps, I don't really notice
Speaker 3: when I'm just hearing it, but he had this look
Speaker 3: on his face where he's rapping.
Speaker 1: Dish, Yeah, totally.
Speaker 3: Now seeing other guy and then it's like that that
Speaker 3: whole rapping singing white guy like and now I'm gonna sing.
Speaker 3: It just works, It just works, and it gets my
Speaker 3: blood pumping and it makes me want to tear the
Speaker 3: graphic te off some bro and head butt gatorade out
Speaker 3: of his ass. I should have said monster Energy drink close,
Speaker 3: but it's but yeah, it's a life music capital of
Speaker 3: the world. So not only is there that band, there's
Speaker 3: a band that's just like them doing a cover across
Speaker 3: the street and their sounds are overlapping.
Speaker 1: Yes, And then in the middle there's like a girl
Speaker 1: with a weird kerchief as a tank top and a
Speaker 1: strange beer in a plastic cup who's just kind of
Speaker 1: like having her having her day and then.
Speaker 3: Music without them that it's not music if she isn't there. Yeah,
Speaker 3: And that was the other thing about mainly Sixth Street,
Speaker 3: where a lot of the festival is going to be
Speaker 3: and where you'll see the most horribly drunk people. Cops
Speaker 3: are on horses, they have tattoos, they're really waiting to
Speaker 3: get in some stick time, and they they ask for
Speaker 3: phone numbers and stuff from girls. Hey come here. I
Speaker 3: just totally saw on duty cop with a full sleeved
Speaker 3: leg tattoos on his horse and she's like trying to
Speaker 3: pet the horse. He's like, you compet her this weekend
Speaker 3: if you give me a call or.
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with any of.
Speaker 3: This, Okay, I have problems with all of it.
Speaker 5: Well, Michael is for a cop to ask me for
Speaker 5: my number, oh, to be trampled by a horse, so
Speaker 5: this is perfect.
Speaker 1: Just sweeps you off your feet onto his police.
Speaker 2: Exactly.
Speaker 1: It would.
Speaker 3: Just let me know of it. I don't know how
Speaker 3: that situation will go, but anything you do to a
Speaker 3: police horse, it's considered you're doing it to an office.
Speaker 2: Just horses are they are.
Speaker 4: When I was in south By, Southwest last year, we
Speaker 4: had this big I was there with a p home
Speaker 4: show and also to perform, and so for the show,
Speaker 4: they rented this humongous suv. It was like a Delano
Speaker 4: or it was a large Mith Milana, and we.
Speaker 1: Dropped it off to have it parked in a hotel
Speaker 1: while we walked, And when I got back, they were like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: someone hit it while we were. It was so hilarious,
Speaker 1: and so it was just like I had there was
Speaker 1: a cop right there when it happened. So I got
Speaker 1: the ticket, the car back, the police report, and this
Speaker 1: whole it was almost like the whole thing had been
Speaker 1: taken care of.
Speaker 5: All I was gone, this is this happened to me
Speaker 5: on my street last year. I went out like eleven
Speaker 5: o'clock at night. My car was basically perpendicular with the
Speaker 5: street and there was a giant ticket on it that
Speaker 5: was like the size of a road map, and the
Speaker 5: police this woman had backed up and hit seven car way,
Speaker 5: Sandy Gomez and that. So they just left the whole
Speaker 5: report for me and it was taken care of. I
Speaker 5: didn't have to worry about talking to anyone that. I
Speaker 5: just got insurance money and it was oh nice. I'm
Speaker 5: still being contacted by her insurance company, which doesn't seem
Speaker 5: to be as on the ball, but.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's Sandy.
Speaker 3: I have a deposition this weekend from my wreck that
Speaker 3: happened when we first stared podcastings kind of on Koanga
Speaker 3: going down and just stopped and someone slammed into me
Speaker 3: and my ex girlfriend and we got really hurt. But
Speaker 3: they were uninsured. And whatever money comes out of her
Speaker 3: insurance to take care of uninsured motorists hitting you, we
Speaker 3: exceeded that with like physical therapy. So now even though
Speaker 3: it's like the victim and a wreck, I owe over
Speaker 3: ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Oh my goshiculous.
Speaker 3: So I have to prove lost wages. So it's insane. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's it's very it's uh, it's really they it really
Speaker 3: sucks when people don't have ensured. How long ago was
Speaker 3: this It was almost a year and a half January
Speaker 3: twenty fourteen. Yeah, it's the.
Speaker 1: Worst it is.
Speaker 2: So, Karen, was your car still operating? Was the suv?
Speaker 1: Yeah? It was just like someone's like drove by. I'm
Speaker 1: sure they were probably drunk. They just like there was
Speaker 1: just big.
Speaker 4: Long streak marks because it was a big white suv,
Speaker 4: so it was just like someone skimmed down the side
Speaker 4: of it as they were trying to park it or
Speaker 4: I don't know something.
Speaker 3: And you experienced a horrible, horrible thing. You probably don't
Speaker 3: want to talk about that. The person that there's someone
Speaker 3: like just was evading the police and drove through a
Speaker 3: crowd of people.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I just told.
Speaker 3: You yeah story right.
Speaker 1: Right, it's a terrible story that it's so funny because
Speaker 1: I love to tell that story.
Speaker 4: When I first got back, didn't love it, but it
Speaker 4: was like, listen, insane thing.
Speaker 3: Happened, probably just on your mind.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and also because the part that I love that
Speaker 4: that uh or I can't say love, but the part
Speaker 4: that's amazing to me is I was standing in the
Speaker 4: back of the line that got plowed through moments before it.
Speaker 1: Got plowed through, and I just walked away.
Speaker 4: So instead of being the first person hit by the car,
Speaker 4: I just was over on the side and was completely
Speaker 4: untouched by it.
Speaker 3: I did not know that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's the part that but but when you but,
Speaker 4: and it's probably my fault. And the way I told
Speaker 4: the story was because the story itself is horrible and
Speaker 4: it you know, all these people got hit by this
Speaker 4: car that went through a barrier and died.
Speaker 2: People died.
Speaker 1: No one on that street died though, Okay, I mean
Speaker 1: there were people that were very seriously hurt and injured.
Speaker 1: But the people that died were the people that that
Speaker 1: guy hit.
Speaker 3: Before he turned I forgot God. Yeah, go forever in jail, right, Yes,
Speaker 3: Texas is not a place you want to break the law, not.
Speaker 1: At all and evade like he was. I think he was.
Speaker 1: He was.
Speaker 4: He had a warrant already, so he was. They were
Speaker 4: trying to pull him over.
Speaker 2: Oh he was on the run from the police, right, yeah.
Speaker 3: But it was something like I'm not paying that child support,
Speaker 3: yes exactly.
Speaker 1: Someone then three people get killed because of it.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: But every time I told the story, I was trying
Speaker 1: to convey the part of like, can you believe I,
Speaker 1: you know, buy the skin of my teeth? But I
Speaker 1: would bum people out so badly, like I was there
Speaker 1: when that hideous thing happened that I started realizing, we
Speaker 1: just don't don't tell people that story. You're just basically
Speaker 1: going remember the worst thing ever.
Speaker 3: But it is interesting. I mean, the fact that you
Speaker 3: went through that is pretty Oh.
Speaker 5: I would I couldn't have. I would have never stopped
Speaker 5: throwing up. I would have just found a garbage can
Speaker 5: and just.
Speaker 3: Keep eating the rest of your life to support all
Speaker 3: the vomiting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that sounds awful.
Speaker 1: It was pretty bad.
Speaker 4: But then my both my parents were like my dad's
Speaker 4: a fireman, my mom was a nurse, so they're used to,
Speaker 4: like emergency situations.
Speaker 1: They're very like calm, oh sure.
Speaker 4: And I remember talking to both my sister and my
Speaker 4: dad and I said to my sister, like, I feel
Speaker 4: more grateful that it didn't happen to me than I do,
Speaker 4: like caught up in the horror of it.
Speaker 1: And my sister said, I'm going.
Speaker 4: To tell you my favorite uh saying, which is not
Speaker 4: my circus, not my monkeys. So it's like, don't take
Speaker 4: on problems if you don't have to, Like if I
Speaker 4: had gotten hit or if I'd witnessed something that was
Speaker 4: like keeping me up at night, that's one thing.
Speaker 1: But if you don't have it, don't look for it.
Speaker 3: I is it okay if your sister's favorite saying is
Speaker 3: now mine? Because because it's not my circus, my.
Speaker 1: Monkeys, your life is hard enough. I don't go looking for.
Speaker 3: Product, don't work here, and I specifically don't have the
Speaker 3: job of monkey trainer.
Speaker 1: Sorry, those monkeys are everywhere.
Speaker 4: Well you're going not to collect them up yourself because
Speaker 4: those they're not mine.
Speaker 3: So do you have a temporary office then when you're
Speaker 3: in Austin.
Speaker 5: Yeah, as far as I know, I think we're all
Speaker 5: of the writers will be in one room, so we'll see.
Speaker 5: But uh, I honestly, I have not asked enough questions
Speaker 5: about this week is going to entail. I know I'm
Speaker 5: going there and hopefully somebody can shepherd me in the
Speaker 5: correct direction, because yeah.
Speaker 3: I went there for work once when I worked on
Speaker 3: a show, but it was to interview, like go and
Speaker 3: interview bands. So I was in the Sea of Drunk Peach. Sure,
Speaker 3: it seems like you'll probably be able to avoid it.
Speaker 3: Maybe see music? Will you be able?
Speaker 2: I hope to see some music. I always say that.
Speaker 5: I mean just about concerts here, and I'm so lazy
Speaker 5: that I can imagine just sitting in my hotel room.
Speaker 5: But I know like at least the show is going
Speaker 5: to have Spoon, so at the very least I'll get
Speaker 5: to see them live, which I'm excited about.
Speaker 3: Are they from Austin? They are because they used to
Speaker 3: my friendship.
Speaker 1: To Ship's friends with that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he had Spoon. He wore a Spoon shirt on
Speaker 3: Austin's stories.
Speaker 1: Do you have their most recent album?
Speaker 2: Like great?
Speaker 1: I'm so good that I constantly they've.
Speaker 2: Been a very consistent band.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're great. That's very cool.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that'll be fun. I would I've never seen Spoon,
Speaker 3: but I have plenty of opportunities.
Speaker 5: They're very good live, but I would like to. Maybe
Speaker 5: one night I'll find the courage to go see a band.
Speaker 5: But I feel like I have to have some lanyard
Speaker 5: on or something.
Speaker 1: So you'll get one though, because from from being with
Speaker 1: the show.
Speaker 2: Well, I pray, but you know, I don't count on anything.
Speaker 1: Your prayers.
Speaker 2: I'm saying I've been praying every night.
Speaker 1: There are a couple bands to get that connection.
Speaker 2: That sounds like food die. Yes.
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure whether or not to bring it up
Speaker 1: to because.
Speaker 2: If I started crying that up.
Speaker 4: I mean, because it is fascinating to me, but also
Speaker 4: I don't want to be like pointing, like look at
Speaker 4: weird things.
Speaker 2: I need to know more about that.
Speaker 1: I just love that you have had no idea. That's fascinating.
Speaker 2: It's very weird to me. It's bingos square.
Speaker 4: Oh go on, Well, I was just going to bring
Speaker 4: up that Bridger is very is what many people call
Speaker 4: it Twitter liberty.
Speaker 2: No one ever says that.
Speaker 1: Is that how you introduced whatever.
Speaker 3: I'm in line at restaurants, whatever, just to get a
Speaker 3: better seat.
Speaker 1: You're holding up your phone at people. Look at that
Speaker 1: number count.
Speaker 4: But you are one of my favorite people on Twitter,
Speaker 4: and Bridger w on Twitter.
Speaker 1: And when you when I first started Twitter, you were
Speaker 1: recommended to me by several people who were very funny,
Speaker 1: and I.
Speaker 3: Just I want to interrupt a lot of people don't
Speaker 3: know that you started Twitter, Karen.
Speaker 2: You're one of the early inventors.
Speaker 1: My idea, I was like, where can we all go
Speaker 1: to write bad pun jokes and pretend we're depressed. Let's
Speaker 1: start this website. But I thought because of your name,
Speaker 1: I thought you were a girl. And also because of
Speaker 1: that picture your Abby's Bridger's wearing really high uh molastic
Speaker 1: band jeans, but there's no head, so it just looks
Speaker 1: like a late something a lady would do. And I
Speaker 1: didn't like you because you were so funny and I
Speaker 1: thought you were a girl.
Speaker 2: I was like, she thinks.
Speaker 1: She's so great. Like I did a very sexist thing
Speaker 1: in my head of like kind of being like whatever, Bridger.
Speaker 1: And then when I found out you were a guy,
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, I love him so much.
Speaker 2: Well you're you are not alone.
Speaker 5: I have had so many people say, wait, you're a
Speaker 5: guy or I thought you were a woman, And I
Speaker 5: don't know what to tell people. I mean, I'm definitely
Speaker 5: not helping. Like nothing I tweet about could be I
Speaker 5: mean so.
Speaker 1: Much volleyball team stuff.
Speaker 5: There's a lot of volleyball and crafts. But if you
Speaker 5: do even a little bit of research on the internet,
Speaker 5: you can discover my gender.
Speaker 3: There's pictures of your torso and your head.
Speaker 1: There is always separate now.
Speaker 5: And separate well actually, and if you click on my picture,
Speaker 5: it brings up but it just looks like I could
Speaker 5: be a hideous woman, just like just like a woman
Speaker 5: that was recently released from prison or something. So it's
Speaker 5: not I'm not helping anyone.
Speaker 2: I don't care. I like the confusion.
Speaker 5: I would prefer for everyone to just think that I'm
Speaker 5: this this lady who is tweeting from jail.
Speaker 3: Is it? Would you credit your Twitter celebrity what it's
Speaker 3: the word your Twitter celebrityism? Thank you with with like
Speaker 3: the job you've got and everything. Oh yeah, Oh that's
Speaker 3: so great.
Speaker 2: It's crazy. I mean for a long time, I mean
Speaker 2: I didn't have any.
Speaker 5: Other way to present you what I would do or whatever. No,
Speaker 5: I don't stand up or anything, and I don't have
Speaker 5: entertainment connections. And I know I saw other people were
Speaker 5: a handful of people got getting jobs from it. So
Speaker 5: I was like, well, I guess I'll just keep doing
Speaker 5: this and if it doesn't work out, I've wasted thousands
Speaker 5: of hours of my life.
Speaker 2: So you, you.
Speaker 3: Like Rob Delaney or maybe a better example, treated it
Speaker 3: like a job and you weren't sure why you were
Speaker 3: doing it, but you were just tweeting out jokes and
Speaker 3: and observation.
Speaker 5: Yeah, all day it was I mean it was fun.
Speaker 5: I like, yeah, like reading other people's tweets or whatever.
Speaker 3: I'm late to get into it, and I don't think
Speaker 3: Twitter celebrities are coming up anymore. No, it's like hard.
Speaker 2: People hate it. Do you still Yeah.
Speaker 3: It's weird and I still enjoy it. But do you
Speaker 3: still do it as as much as you used to be?
Speaker 2: Just getting this job?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 5: Just because I mean my last job, I was sitting
Speaker 5: in front of a computer for eight hours a day
Speaker 5: looking at pictures of food.
Speaker 2: So it was a lot easier.
Speaker 3: Oh, that's funny.
Speaker 4: But wait, weren't you were the writer's assistant on Craig
Speaker 4: Ferguson for a long time.
Speaker 2: I was a researcher there.
Speaker 1: Oh, a researcher sorry.
Speaker 2: And that job didn't require much of me.
Speaker 3: A lot of pictures of food are going to come
Speaker 3: up in that situation, too, plenty of pictures of food.
Speaker 1: Wait, what was the job you had about the food picture?
Speaker 5: And that was my on my own personal time, That's
Speaker 5: what I was doing with my job each day. I
Speaker 5: was looking at food on the internet because I was starving.
Speaker 1: What kind of food did you like to look at?
Speaker 5: I like, I like looking at melted cheese, meatballs, burritos
Speaker 5: cut in half, fried eggs on hamburgers. I'm honestly pretty
Speaker 5: much any sort of food, I'm into it.
Speaker 3: But I do like the aesthetics of a barely eaten
Speaker 3: out of castle role that's beautiful, just where you can
Speaker 3: get a little profile.
Speaker 5: Exactly, you get to see the architecture of the cast,
Speaker 5: those layers exactly.
Speaker 1: Have you ever seen.
Speaker 4: Those old recipe carts from the seventies like that? There's
Speaker 4: one with bananas and hollandaise.
Speaker 1: Sauce that oh yes, so hard.
Speaker 5: Those pictures, those are I get. I probably should have
Speaker 5: been looking at pictures like that to keep myself from
Speaker 5: getting hungry. Yeah, that's right, I was doing the wrong thing.
Speaker 1: You're getting hungry instead of using them, exactly, I.
Speaker 2: Should have been like feeling repulsed.
Speaker 3: Yeah, do bananas make you un hungry?
Speaker 5: Oh no, I love bananas, but covered in basically mayonnaise.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, bacon. And there's these set these recipe cards
Speaker 1: from the seventies that I keep seeing on Tumblr every
Speaker 1: once in a while, and they are so hilarious. It's
Speaker 1: like lard and it's Yes.
Speaker 4: It's like a housewife in the seventies who's clearly on pills.
Speaker 4: There's making up shit that like you would never It's
Speaker 4: like a toss salad over here, and some like jars
Speaker 4: of you know, oil and vinegar dressing over here, and
Speaker 4: then in the center it's a cast role that looks
Speaker 4: like someone shat and barfed and then put some mashed
Speaker 4: potatoes near it.
Speaker 1: It's like the most upsetting looking food. Just everything was
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 2: My mom owns a lot of cookbooks like that.
Speaker 5: Yeah that she Yeah, I'll go through and just feel
Speaker 5: very ill.
Speaker 3: Yeah, what is that classic one that is like Red Gangham, like.
Speaker 1: Tablecloth, better Homes and gardens.
Speaker 5: It is like Betty Crocker.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the one. And so there was a and
Speaker 3: I loved it my whole life. My mom. It was
Speaker 3: one thing she made where I get excited. It was
Speaker 3: clam sauce spaghetti. And then one time when I moved
Speaker 3: off to Austin to start my life alone, I my
Speaker 3: sister wrote out a bunch of recipes for me and
Speaker 3: there was a whole thing of cream cheese.
Speaker 2: There was an entire block.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there was cream and mushroom soup and and clams
Speaker 3: like one Canada the clams, and then one without the juice,
Speaker 3: and then an entire bucket of Philadelphia, like.
Speaker 2: A bunch of it, five thousand calories.
Speaker 3: You're eating it was, and I would sit in with
Speaker 3: a big bowl of it and just eat it and
Speaker 3: wonder why my back jaggled on speedbo It was so
Speaker 3: much cream cheese.
Speaker 1: That's what every This was like pre light food or
Speaker 1: diet food, like pre when everyone before people realized everyone
Speaker 1: was dying of heart disease. And my mom used to
Speaker 1: make an appetizer that I've made at Christmas parties where people,
Speaker 1: especially when they're drunk, would line up waiting for them
Speaker 1: to come out of the oven. You were there, right.
Speaker 3: My spaghetti was such a hit, yes.
Speaker 4: Because it has all that good stuff in it. But
Speaker 4: they were those little toasted cheese things that I make,
Speaker 4: and it's basically equal parts mayonnaise and craft parmers together
Speaker 4: and then put on sliced up baguette and you broil.
Speaker 4: Put them in the broiler for three minutes. And if
Speaker 4: you as long as people don't see you mixing that combination,
Speaker 4: that's so disgusting. If you just keep that a mystery,
Speaker 4: like people would get in. They were lining up in
Speaker 4: my kitchen at a Christmas party and they were taking
Speaker 4: them hot off the cookie train and I was like,
Speaker 4: don't put that in your mouth, just from the broiler.
Speaker 1: And they've just like them.
Speaker 4: It was hilarious because they're so delicious, But it's what
Speaker 4: it is, it's worth.
Speaker 3: The burning is just that's that's That explains why my
Speaker 3: mom never when she's cooking and she's like, stay, you
Speaker 3: want me to see that there's a bucket a lard
Speaker 3: being siphoned into it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: There's a very popular Mormon dish called funeral potatoes, which
Speaker 5: is just the least a feeling title for any food ever.
Speaker 3: You can eat them any times.
Speaker 2: The thing is as you do. You eat them at
Speaker 2: any get.
Speaker 3: Together out of an open casket.
Speaker 5: But it's essentially just hash browns. It covered in your
Speaker 5: favorite relatives ashes. No, I think it's hash browns, sour cream,
Speaker 5: cheese and cornflakes and you just.
Speaker 2: Put it in the oven. I've had something like that, fantastic.
Speaker 3: Sour cream cheese and corn what someone's atheist parents call that,
Speaker 3: because I know I've eaten that.
Speaker 1: Oh, they just call that Sundays for Sundays times, it's
Speaker 1: my time, layoff, get out of here with that book.
Speaker 3: Well, I I I when I did stand up in Ogden,
Speaker 3: most of the crowd I think there was a show
Speaker 3: of hands at one point. It's just opening for Greg
Speaker 3: barn and it was mostly Mormon folks. Sure, and it
Speaker 3: was the best. I wanted to go back and record
Speaker 3: an album there. Yeah, because they because I'm I'm not
Speaker 3: that dirty of a comic shirt some of the stuff,
Speaker 3: they were totally willing to go anywhere the most open mind.
Speaker 3: I'm like, I felt bad at the end because I
Speaker 3: was like, oh, better only have jokes about diet coke
Speaker 3: or whatever. My and they were so great and so
Speaker 3: gracious and like excited every single night. Greg went back
Speaker 3: and did record something there. It was the best, and
Speaker 3: it was the It wasn't even and Ogden apparently has
Speaker 3: like shady areas, right.
Speaker 2: Austen does have some fair but.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it just seemed like an outdoorsy I think it's
Speaker 3: been rated as like one of the best cities to
Speaker 3: live in or something. But then on some hillside they said, yeah,
Speaker 3: but that's where all the stabbings happened. What are you
Speaker 3: talking about forest. Well, there's a Mashetti gang all the sacks.
Speaker 3: Do you know what I'm talking about there? I'm not
Speaker 3: familiar with. Okay, I would love to be. That sounds
Speaker 3: like me describing a salt lake. I just made up.
Speaker 3: I swear they said that on the hillside, the.
Speaker 2: Hillside of Ogden.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there was like, what year was this? I love it?
Speaker 3: Well two thousand and eight, I said. Wise, guys, comedy,
Speaker 3: That's what it was. There's just a lot of wise.
Speaker 1: Everybody's gotta be funny.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: No, But as far as I know, Utah audiences really
Speaker 5: are kind of known to be good audiences. I think
Speaker 5: because Mormon people are generally polite and friendly, and then
Speaker 5: there are non Mormons who are ready for something different,
Speaker 5: so they're excited.
Speaker 3: Too, exactly. That's why they're like, no, talk about stuff
Speaker 3: that we don't get to do.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3: And then there was no one there with their arms
Speaker 3: crossed with the whole make me laugh the thing that
Speaker 3: I used to in Austin. There was a lot of like,
Speaker 3: I'm funny than this guy. Remember what I said at
Speaker 3: the picnic once two years ago.
Speaker 5: Well, and the other thing is there's not a ton
Speaker 5: of good stand up going through Utah, Like I had
Speaker 5: not seen stand up before I moved to La other
Speaker 5: than at Wise, guys, I saw dustin Diamond that we
Speaker 5: went as a joke obviously, and a twelve year old comedian,
Speaker 5: so that was also we went as a joke. But
Speaker 5: and both were special experiences but were not good for
Speaker 5: comedy obviously.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So I went back there in Salt Lake. There was
Speaker 3: like a tour for that Ratituey movie, and I got
Speaker 3: to open for Patten and Janine Gravelt, just a real
Speaker 3: quick set. But that too, it was the best, sure,
Speaker 3: and it was kind of democratic moms showing up to
Speaker 3: see me. It was when she's still doing America. Is
Speaker 3: that what it called? Yeah, that's also a Robert Downey
Speaker 3: junior movie.
Speaker 1: I think, oh, where he's the helicopter pilot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, oh god, let's think about that for But yeah,
Speaker 3: it was like at a rock club, and they were
Speaker 3: so great because this was the other side, like, oh,
Speaker 3: we're the tattoo exactly, wet your your Daddy's salt Lake Citians,
Speaker 3: Saltlake Citians, salt Lake Citians. At one point, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: get quiet in.
Speaker 6: Here, but uh, but they were they were so they
Speaker 6: were so great they were I yeah, So anyway, my
Speaker 6: whole point is, I like where you're from, it's a
Speaker 6: great I like Mormons.
Speaker 3: I'm an open minded person who doesn't believe in anything.
Speaker 4: You know, it's like any other thing where you hear
Speaker 4: about the extreme, you know, the extreme versions of anything.
Speaker 4: But like my friend Betsy Labass, who was the teleprompter
Speaker 4: lady for the five years I worked at Ellen, She's
Speaker 4: Mormon and her parents were Mormon, and she used to
Speaker 4: invite me over we go to have dinner or like
Speaker 4: for Christmas, and it was like people who have there
Speaker 4: being like almost like life magazine version of all American people. Sure,
Speaker 4: and they were like both her parents were in their
Speaker 4: late seventies or early eighties. They both looked like they
Speaker 4: were in their sixties, like so healthy, just bright faced,
Speaker 4: fun to talk to, Like you know, they look like
Speaker 4: you know, she had like a little beehive and he
Speaker 4: looked like a little farmer.
Speaker 1: And they were just like the loveliest people. Yeah, it was.
Speaker 1: It was great. I mean, like I definitely had like
Speaker 1: a weird Warren Jeff's bias going in of like what's
Speaker 1: this going to be like?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Jem he is Voldemort.
Speaker 1: It's true, like he has his own whole town.
Speaker 2: I want to go there so bad.
Speaker 1: You're but you're not allowed in.
Speaker 2: Right now, I think you can pass through.
Speaker 5: It's called Colorado City, and maybe right now, I'm just
Speaker 5: going to tell you about a TV show called Polygamy USA,
Speaker 5: which was on National Geographic unfortunately just for one season,
Speaker 5: but it was the splinter group for Warren Jeff's group
Speaker 5: that they were covering. They're like the good version of
Speaker 5: his cults or whatever, but definitely recommend Polygamy USA. Who,
Speaker 5: by the I'm just going to keep talking about this
Speaker 5: because this is this is the one interesting story of
Speaker 5: my life. I went to the University of Utah and
Speaker 5: I had a math professor there named Teresa Colly, who
Speaker 5: I suspected might be a polygamist. She addressed fairly conservatively.
Speaker 3: The way she spoke is a longer denim skirts that's
Speaker 3: a big loo.
Speaker 5: And the thing was like it was like that, but
Speaker 5: just slightly updated. So it's like, what, You're definitely not
Speaker 5: a normal person. Uh yeah, The bangs were a dead giveaway,
Speaker 5: but I suspected but never confirmed. This was in like
Speaker 5: two thousand and eight or nine, and She was, by
Speaker 5: the way, a very good math professor, which was part
Speaker 5: of the conflict for me. I thought, well, if she's
Speaker 5: a polygamist, how is she why is she an educated
Speaker 5: person on any level?
Speaker 2: Plus one exactly.
Speaker 5: But twenty thirteen, I think Polygamy USA aired and I
Speaker 5: was watching it alone in my apartment at about eleven
Speaker 5: thirty at night, and suddenly one of the sister wives
Speaker 5: being interviewed was Theresa College. Wow, and I gasped so loudly,
Speaker 5: Oh wow.
Speaker 2: She's moved down to this.
Speaker 5: She wasn't solid at the time, but now she's down
Speaker 5: in Arizona or something.
Speaker 3: About book smarts only. Yeah, it's crazy, that's amazing.
Speaker 1: She was one of several wives.
Speaker 5: Yeah, she was one of several wives. And she's kind
Speaker 5: of like a crusader for polygamy. She's because I think,
Speaker 5: I mean, she is book smart, so she's able to
Speaker 5: go out and argue their cause or whatever, and I
Speaker 5: mean polygamy is whatever. Like these people, they're idiots, but
Speaker 5: they're not like abusing each other.
Speaker 3: It just happened to be insane. Hey, if you can
Speaker 3: make it work, if you can make it happen, I mean,
Speaker 3: it's kind of I think most people look down on
Speaker 3: it because they're jealous, Like the guy that's like I
Speaker 3: fight against Yeah, he's gay you and then they find
Speaker 3: him at a high octane club. It's like, no, no,
Speaker 3: I'm doing research about.
Speaker 2: Things I don't like.
Speaker 1: Well, but also, you know, I want.
Speaker 3: To have a bunch of wives. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: What you do if we all do about the desert?
Speaker 3: He does.
Speaker 1: The only thing is I think it's in fairness, you
Speaker 1: should also be able to have a bunch of husbands.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, absolutely right, But that doesn't.
Speaker 1: Really work out that way because that's kind of not
Speaker 1: the setup.
Speaker 4: But to me, it's like, yeah, but then why is
Speaker 4: that any worse than standard one husband, one wife, but
Speaker 4: people cheating on each right, Yeah it isn't.
Speaker 3: That is worse?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, like, why let's not be uh, let's
Speaker 1: not be bullshitters about it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's all just garbage, and everything's garbage. Everything's garbage,
Speaker 5: So why do we have to separate it?
Speaker 3: I realized, Yeah, I've liked I just realized I like
Speaker 3: Mormon people my whole life. My two best friends when
Speaker 3: I was a kid, they had and they had so
Speaker 3: many brothers and sisters and the house was just fun
Speaker 3: and active and they had huge houses and trampolines. It
Speaker 3: was the fun in Montana. But there isn't a whole
Speaker 3: lot of Mormons.
Speaker 1: Do They always have trampolines.
Speaker 5: Bridger Mormons. At once, we didn't, but so many of
Speaker 5: my friends had trampoline.
Speaker 3: My dad's childhood friend moved there. We went to visit them,
Speaker 3: and they had neighbors who we When we walked and
Speaker 3: I was maybe eleven years old, we walked into their
Speaker 3: house inside trampolines, a trapee's their home in the home,
Speaker 3: padded everywhere, bean bag chairs, yeah, and they and they
Speaker 3: were gymnast kids. They were and they were flipping around
Speaker 3: and I walked in and they were so nice and
Speaker 3: they were like, do you want to play on the
Speaker 3: And I'm like yeah, yeah. I was so excited. I
Speaker 3: never even jumped on a trampoline. Then this kids comes
Speaker 3: swinging and that's a flip and and I go Jesus
Speaker 3: Christ and they said, oh, oh yeah. When I said
Speaker 3: Jesus Christ, it was just an expletive and they said
Speaker 3: I was not allowed. I was forced to leave, and
Speaker 3: I was I was. I remember being there.
Speaker 2: You were excited about trampoline.
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe I wasn't that, but they made me feel
Speaker 3: so guilty that I just sat down and got quiet.
Speaker 2: I think that that's okay, and then I left on my.
Speaker 3: Own accord break because even as a kid, I'm like,
Speaker 3: these people don't like me. I have to get out
Speaker 3: of here.
Speaker 2: I wish this was age twenty eight or something.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I know.
Speaker 1: It was right after my set crackers.
Speaker 3: So I did in my head all Mormons had like trampoline,
Speaker 3: you know, they definitely do. And it's weird because like
Speaker 3: maybe a few years ago, VH one had like a
Speaker 3: look at rich people's houses thing, and I remember them
Speaker 3: saying like the an answer being like, and he has
Speaker 3: his own personal trampoline.
Speaker 5: And everything that who cares. Everyone in my neighborhood had.
Speaker 3: A trampoline in same personal to It makes you think
Speaker 3: of the exercise you'd get excited.
Speaker 1: Yeah, one of those.
Speaker 3: I put my head through my basement sailing with I
Speaker 3: really did cartoonishly.
Speaker 1: It was shaped like my did you were you injured?
Speaker 3: Nope? No, it was just aspest, just chippy panel spark
Speaker 3: kind Yeah, the kind that goes in your lung.
Speaker 2: How perfect?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I was.
Speaker 2: Keep your mouth opens.
Speaker 3: I've been coughing this whole.
Speaker 1: Episode, Kimmel, is your first writing job? It is, yeah,
Speaker 1: first staff writing job, And what do you think so far?
Speaker 2: It's great.
Speaker 5: It's a I mean coming from my last job, which
Speaker 5: I described earlier, which was nothing with no work and
Speaker 5: like the sort of job where I last year, I
Speaker 5: skipped a week of work.
Speaker 2: I didn't come in and no one noticed.
Speaker 5: So that just to give you an idea of the
Speaker 5: job I was coming from, Like what effort I had
Speaker 5: to put in. It's definitely been like a there's a
Speaker 5: learning curve obviously or whatever. But everybody there's so nice
Speaker 5: and yeah, I worked with I was friends with my
Speaker 5: friend Jeff Loveness before I started working there. He's great,
Speaker 5: and he's great, the hardest working person on the planet.
Speaker 5: He's like, I don't think he sleeps, but he and
Speaker 5: my office made best. They've been so good at just
Speaker 5: like helping me because I don't know how to do anything, yeah, comedy,
Speaker 5: writing or otherwise. So it's nice to have two people
Speaker 5: just guiding me through life essentially.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's nice. How they've been there for a while.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they've been there for two or three years each. Yeah,
Speaker 5: so that's great.
Speaker 3: I wish you would work Mike. Mike, he was a
Speaker 3: very good friend Andy in Austin, he was in a
Speaker 3: sketch duo okay, and he all he did is edit
Speaker 3: those their sketches, and then he moved here and got
Speaker 3: a job there as an editor and within a handful
Speaker 3: year two three years, all of a sudden just directing
Speaker 3: the show and he showed up as an editor.
Speaker 2: Oh that's great.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's it's uh, and I never we kind
Speaker 3: of lost touch because he's busy all that. Sure, but
Speaker 3: he probably knows your pals.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a That's a nice thing about the show
Speaker 5: is like they they notice you and like try to
Speaker 5: help you and make you a better person, like better
Speaker 5: for the show, which I coming from other jobs has
Speaker 5: not been the same situation.
Speaker 1: So usually it's a little more, Uh, you're expected to
Speaker 1: be a bit more independent.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and this is like, well, we wanted to be
Speaker 5: a good show. We want everyone to be working, everyone
Speaker 5: working on it to be good at their jobs, So
Speaker 5: why not do that?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's great.
Speaker 4: It's because also the daily shows are so stressful, are
Speaker 4: so exhausting that oftentimes it can very much be every
Speaker 4: man for himself or sure, you know, like or if
Speaker 4: you start to fall behind a little bit, it just
Speaker 4: like people are like, we don't have time to help you.
Speaker 3: Of course alive.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's nice.
Speaker 5: An intense schedule, but it's nice. It feels like I'm
Speaker 5: just in an intense training course and I feel like
Speaker 5: I'm catching on.
Speaker 2: So it's cool.
Speaker 3: I think that's what I need. I have no schedule,
Speaker 3: and I've been like sleeping and well that sounds wonderful. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it is great. It is great. But after a while
Speaker 3: it starts to affect everything. You're like, well what am
Speaker 3: I doing with? And I remember back when I worked
Speaker 3: on a show and just had to show up somewhere
Speaker 3: every day. It probably wasn't as long as hours, but
Speaker 3: it makes you get all these other things done. Even
Speaker 3: your weekends are productive. You just become a productive person.
Speaker 3: The show not require nine hours of sleep every night.
Speaker 4: Well, and also, I think if you're on a daily
Speaker 4: show you do it is like being in a boot
Speaker 4: camp of a kind, because then everything after that.
Speaker 1: Is so much easier.
Speaker 2: I'm sure.
Speaker 4: I mean, I mean the job I have now is
Speaker 4: difficult in other ways, but scheduling wise, and it's feels very.
Speaker 1: It almost feels luxurious. Sure, much time there.
Speaker 5: Is well, and you're kind of working towards a bigger
Speaker 5: idea all the time rather than just resetting every day.
Speaker 5: And yeah, which is good in some ways and bad
Speaker 5: and others. Like if you have a bad day, you're like, well, tomorrow,
Speaker 5: maybe it won't be awful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like the second taping starts, it's like, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: this ship is sale. There's nothing you can do.
Speaker 5: But I imagine on a sitcom you're like, the week
Speaker 5: is a little slower paced.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's very slow paced.
Speaker 3: I'm in the even slower paced world of occasional commercial audition.
Speaker 3: I also just burped into the mind like if I
Speaker 3: could tell more that you, Oh, you guys work a lot.
Speaker 3: I did a skippy peanut butter voice.
Speaker 4: You're also in that weird position of when you're a
Speaker 4: comic and an actor. Yeah, I mean you you do
Speaker 4: commercials a lot, exactly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so lately so yeah, my sense.
Speaker 1: Of worth is it's it's purely based on us, you guys.
Speaker 3: Yes, and I have not been getting them, so my
Speaker 3: position has gotten more fetal during slumber times, but then
Speaker 3: pilot seasons right around, Yeah, pilot season, it's kind of
Speaker 3: curving the corner. It's it's rounding it.
Speaker 2: When does it end?
Speaker 3: When does it start? When did it start for others?
Speaker 3: That's the question.
Speaker 2: And does it matter anymore? It kind of doesn't.
Speaker 5: I like where this is going well, but let's be
Speaker 5: I feel like like last year, Fox made an announcement
Speaker 5: basically saying we're going to do pilot.
Speaker 2: Season all a year, right, Yeah? Why because of cable?
Speaker 3: Why does there have to be a seat? Is it
Speaker 3: because of weather? It's not the fifties anymore. We don't
Speaker 3: need a season season and they.
Speaker 4: Don't make deals anymore. It used to be pilot season.
Speaker 4: Then you get a pilot deal or a holding deal.
Speaker 4: All that's out the window.
Speaker 2: Now everyone just makes a pilot and doesn't get picked up,
Speaker 2: and then.
Speaker 1: Yeah, everyone's like, I'll pay for my own pilot. Please.
Speaker 1: I beg you to look at it.
Speaker 3: It's it's fully produced. I'm trying to sell it to Netflix.
Speaker 3: It's already finished, there's twelve episodes.
Speaker 1: I got my own advertisers.
Speaker 3: I even made shot my own commercials, which was very difficult.
Speaker 1: It was part please don't look at it.
Speaker 3: Nope, nope, no, thank you. It doesn't have crystallia in it.
Speaker 1: What's your favorite television show these days?
Speaker 2: Bridgre That's that's a good can. I have several answers.
Speaker 2: I'll try to narrow it down. I'll narrow it down
Speaker 2: to a favorite comedy program and a favorite.
Speaker 3: Drug okay, okay, genre, favorite dramedy Okay.
Speaker 5: I have so many favorite dramedies. That's where the list
Speaker 5: gets long. Favorite comedy.
Speaker 2: Last Man on Earth is just is wonderful.
Speaker 3: I love it. I have his voice in my Ways navigation.
Speaker 3: I wasn't aware that was a accidentally. I guess I
Speaker 3: don't have ways, so it doesn't. It's a great idea
Speaker 3: for a show. I was excited about that.
Speaker 2: I've lived up to my expectations.
Speaker 1: It's great.
Speaker 5: He's so funny, and it's it feels different from other shows.
Speaker 5: Jimmy Schmidt's great too, but I feel like this is
Speaker 5: like a very different thing that I haven't seen before.
Speaker 5: And drama drama, uh the Americans, I think, which I
Speaker 5: don't know what's going on the time, sure, but the
Speaker 5: acting is so fine. And occasionally they'll play a Fleetwood
Speaker 5: Max song and you get to see someone get shot
Speaker 5: to it, and it's very cool.
Speaker 1: A lot of people like I keep seeing articles like
Speaker 1: Americans the show. No one's watching that should they should
Speaker 1: be watching around?
Speaker 5: Oh, it's so have either of you seen it? No,
Speaker 5: it's fantastic. It's FX. Oh okay, I yes, FX. And
Speaker 5: it's so good. I mean, and if you understand even
Speaker 5: the Cold War, even five percent more than I do,
Speaker 5: you'll definitely love Oh.
Speaker 3: Wow, Okay, it's such a huge part of my childhood
Speaker 3: that era, you know, sure, being scared and get ready
Speaker 3: to hide under my desk at any moment.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's Uh what about YouTube?
Speaker 3: Do you have transparent for me to watch that? It's
Speaker 3: so it's the best. It's just the best acting I've
Speaker 3: seen in a thing. Okay, with the exception of one
Speaker 3: person in it. So I just kind of can you
Speaker 3: name that person? No?
Speaker 2: I don't, don't it's their rrible there.
Speaker 3: But everyone is so good in it and it's just great.
Speaker 3: And Jill, what's she I don't look what has she done?
Speaker 3: She just wrote on she wrote on sixty number it's
Speaker 3: so good.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's I loved the pilot, but I just have
Speaker 5: been there are one hundred TV shows I need to
Speaker 5: watch and it's.
Speaker 3: And like you mentioned, it's the music and everything like
Speaker 3: the music is beautiful and shot whimsic, whimsically. I just
Speaker 3: it's just like a dream world at all, not at all,
Speaker 3: that's not huge fantastical element, all the interstitial lighting things
Speaker 3: from Punch drunk Love and all that kind of I
Speaker 3: just have to.
Speaker 1: Compare it to I love that though.
Speaker 3: It's just pretty yeah, and that's great, and Jeffrey Tampoor
Speaker 3: is my new favorite person and.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see it. I haven't.
Speaker 4: I feel like I'm holding that, like I want to
Speaker 4: watch it, but I haven't figured out how to do
Speaker 4: it yet.
Speaker 1: And I just I'm like holding it like there's a
Speaker 1: little tree.
Speaker 3: Got wrongitas and that was its perfect. Two days I
Speaker 3: watched the whole season.
Speaker 1: I guess, well, right now I'm obsessed.
Speaker 3: With the jam. Oh.
Speaker 2: I need to watch that so bad.
Speaker 4: Because because that's my that really is. I don't like
Speaker 4: watching comedy that much.
Speaker 1: I feel it's so so emotional when I watch comedy.
Speaker 1: Either I get like crazily jealous or I love it
Speaker 1: so much I feel like my head's gonna explode, Like
Speaker 1: it's too much. I might be a bipolar, but so
Speaker 1: I like watching murder shows. I also really am fascinated
Speaker 1: by Rich people. So the Jinx has everything I love
Speaker 1: all in one.
Speaker 3: Beautiful, but it's it's a documentary but kind of packaged
Speaker 3: like it's.
Speaker 4: A it's a series, but it's like six.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they did it like staircase style where they're they
Speaker 1: needed it out over.
Speaker 3: Six staircase style, that staircase show, Staircase documentary, staircase.
Speaker 5: Although I am familiar with the staircase style of comedy.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, well you want to have it built, Let's
Speaker 3: staircase this one. Guys.
Speaker 1: Okay, everybody, such.
Speaker 3: A great thing. You could say them just with confidence
Speaker 3: in a meeting.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, people would just agree with you.
Speaker 3: Take up jargon like that and then have people agree
Speaker 3: with you and then call that's I'm describing an asshole.
Speaker 3: But yeah, a staircase style fraud.
Speaker 2: Just prank someone politely agreed with me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're nodded and smiled.
Speaker 1: You're a dip.
Speaker 3: Should make me feel supportive even though you didn't know
Speaker 3: what I was talking about, But that means you're dumb.
Speaker 4: I also, wait, there's another one that I liked well,
Speaker 4: The Last Man Sunday Night Got Crazy, where there was
Speaker 4: tons of shows.
Speaker 5: Oh I feel like that happens twice a year when
Speaker 5: suddenly there are nine shows on Sunday night.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have to pick one up.
Speaker 3: Is that the night Mike and Molly's on?
Speaker 2: That's the Mike and Molly.
Speaker 1: No, it's mad Ment. I'm just thrilling mad Men's coming back.

Speaker 3: on it? Oh, it's that your American language again, But
Speaker 3: I sound smart.
Speaker 2: That would be it.
Speaker 3: That's my new favorite character? Am I saying that?
Speaker 2: Right? There's no books.
Speaker 1: Do you recommend the books?
Speaker 5: Yeah? And if you like the show, it almost feels
Speaker 5: like you're reading. I liked it because it felt like
Speaker 5: I was just reading history books about these characters in
Speaker 5: this crazy world. There's so much that I couldn't follow,
Speaker 5: and if you ask me any specific question about them,
Speaker 5: I would not be able to answer you.
Speaker 1: At this point, you haven't read these books.
Speaker 5: The covers are so beautiful, and I just go to
Speaker 5: Barnes and Noble and gaze at them lightly. No, there's
Speaker 5: extremely long, and the fourth and the fifth one, I
Speaker 5: think this is kind of the general opinion are not
Speaker 5: that exciting.
Speaker 2: But the third book is great.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, they're enough people read those books that I
Speaker 3: remember all this. Uh you know, all these people were
Speaker 3: up in arms about the Red Wedding or some episode
Speaker 3: where it was a little rapier or it was consent.
Speaker 3: I don't know that something that was consent in the
Speaker 3: book was.
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, yes, yeah, with uh Jamie and Ceruss, Yes,
Speaker 5: thank you.
Speaker 3: Yeah that remember people getting all mad.
Speaker 5: I think they made it rape here in the show, right,
Speaker 5: and in the book it's not like that at all.
Speaker 3: But I yeah, it was just I'm like, wait, we're
Speaker 3: talking about villains here. I mean, I don't want anyone
Speaker 3: to get raped, but if anyone in the show was
Speaker 3: going to get it, I choose seriously, I'm probably there
Speaker 3: would probably is going to be some backlash to what
Speaker 3: But she's really crucified. She wanted to Oh well, if
Speaker 3: you're mad that I'm happy she got raped, then you're
Speaker 3: happy that a little kid got pushed out of a
Speaker 3: window and it's forever paralyz.
Speaker 2: It's a super villain.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's not a good person.
Speaker 3: It doesn't make up for it that he can enter
Speaker 3: wolves spiritually make up.
Speaker 1: Right, You're right, it doesn't. But I do love Brown's name.
Speaker 2: Brand's wonderful. Uh.
Speaker 1: The first episode that he was in, I was like, oh, no,
Speaker 1: I have a crush on a nine year old boy.
Speaker 4: Everything about his face and like he was all, man,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go climb a whole building or whatever.
Speaker 1: I was just like, oh, I love him.
Speaker 2: Just a brave little boy.
Speaker 1: But he is in an adolescence now that has made
Speaker 1: my crush end year old, right right, Yeah, he looks
Speaker 1: like he's like the birds.
Speaker 3: He's entering, and yeah, once turned eighteen, I quit looking
Speaker 3: at photos.

Speaker 3: guys don't like him when I sag it up, gotta
Speaker 3: sag it up, no, dig got to sag it up. Sorry,
Speaker 3: we're doing an extra long episode.
Speaker 2: I think it is a four hour episode.
Speaker 5: Well, did you already talk about the marathon on your way?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Goddamn Well, I'm I just want to say I will
Speaker 5: never run a marathon after today. I will actively tell
Speaker 5: people not to run marathons.
Speaker 2: It's not unless Yeah.
Speaker 3: I just all I think of is, well, it's inconvenient
Speaker 3: for the rest of the world, your narcissistic desire to run, and.
Speaker 5: There's got to be a better way to get a
Speaker 5: Facebook photo, yeah of.
Speaker 3: You with diarrhea running down your mask. I am Yeah.
Speaker 3: I just don't understand why they insist on doing it
Speaker 3: in the middle of town. One of the worst days
Speaker 3: I had a few years ago was also during the marathon.
Speaker 3: It is it is a cause of heartbreak to me.
Speaker 1: Just I really wish I had Like Bridgin and I
Speaker 1: talked about this yesterday and I was like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: look at what the path.
Speaker 4: Is and then I'll let you know what time we're
Speaker 4: going to get you. The key element that I forgot
Speaker 4: to do is look at where the path was. So
Speaker 4: I was like, we'll get you at eleven whatever. But
Speaker 4: I was like, it's I kind of felt like I knew.
Speaker 4: I was so shocked to see that it really was
Speaker 4: on Sunset like the least convenient. Oh, it's the way
Speaker 4: to fuck everything in the entire city is to fuck
Speaker 4: up Sunset bl.
Speaker 5: And it's not like it's a pleasant place to run.
Speaker 5: That's the worst place in the world.
Speaker 3: Exactly.
Speaker 2: Why there?
Speaker 3: What is the novelty of it? Is it some kind
Speaker 3: of a power pedestrian power move?
Speaker 2: The pedestrians are taking it back.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're so sick getting hit and run.
Speaker 3: On every other day.
Speaker 1: This is right, isn't it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're doing great. Yeah, it's uh. I knew that
Speaker 3: last I was nervous. I had trouble sleeping last night
Speaker 3: because I was worried about I think we're in good shape, by.
Speaker 2: The way, Yeah, it's only twelve thirty, right, Oh, wonderful shape.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, I was so I kept waking up because
Speaker 3: ID a late show last night that started at midnight
Speaker 3: and oh, we screened this thing I was working on
Speaker 3: and all the comics did twenty minutes.
Speaker 1: Oh so I thought you meant you screened it with
Speaker 1: your friends. You screened it at the midnight show.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, what is the thing that's great? It's uh
Speaker 3: me being forrest gumped or green. It's me acting in
Speaker 3: a green screen. And then added to the movie Cocktail
Speaker 3: as a third character, and we kind of reap oh
Speaker 3: kind of and made it more of a thriller where
Speaker 3: I'm stalking Tom Cruise and there's some scientology jokes. But
Speaker 3: it looks amazing. Yeah, I would like you to see it.
Speaker 2: It's will this be a place on the internet?
Speaker 3: But that's last night. It was so funny. There's a
Speaker 3: little Q and a kind of and someone said where
Speaker 3: can we see it? And he said, well, I want
Speaker 3: to put it on YouTube. It'll probably get taken down. Uh,
Speaker 3: just look for it and when you find it, show
Speaker 3: its all your friends like that. I'm like, oh, that's
Speaker 3: how viral, that's how that happened. So we're gonna put
Speaker 3: it on vimeo.
Speaker 5: Vimeo is kind of a more lawless and.
Speaker 3: Because it's as long as too many cooks. I think
Speaker 3: a lot of people will see something almost twelve minutes
Speaker 3: and get scared. Sure, so I feel like we should
Speaker 3: edit a little movie trailer and have that be a
Speaker 3: minute long with all the highlights. But anyway, it I'm
Speaker 3: just gonna put it on Vimeo.
Speaker 2: And this been a ton of work.
Speaker 3: It has been months of work because there's all these reshoots,
Speaker 3: like we look at what comes up and then it's
Speaker 3: not lit right and my eyeline isn't where good Brian
Speaker 3: Brown is and so it's like, oh, we have to
Speaker 3: reshoot that. Also our mic broke, so we have to
Speaker 3: redo the sound. So I was doing all the adr
Speaker 3: like looping and it was dishausting, but it was it's
Speaker 3: where it looks so good. It looks I mean that
Speaker 3: commercial was it Snickers where it's a Brady Bunch scene and.
Speaker 2: Ooks it looks like that.
Speaker 3: It's that technology but with jokes and not just Steve
Speaker 3: Blue Shemmy, you don't know what I have to say,

Speaker 5: Sure, because I need to get the word out about
Speaker 5: Mother's brand peanut butter Gaucho cookies. What I cannot stop talking.
Speaker 5: For the last year. I have been bothering people to
Speaker 5: buy these. I've heard I've never had a Nutter butter.
Speaker 5: This is that times a billion. This is such a
Speaker 5: superior cookie sea And they are a little expensive at Ralph's,
Speaker 5: so I went for them to go on sale. But
Speaker 5: when they do go on sale, I will buy six
Speaker 5: to eight packages at a time. They are phenomenal. It's
Speaker 5: a sandwich cookie with peanut butter, but for some reason
Speaker 5: it's it's the best tasting thing.
Speaker 3: They say the Mothers gaucho peanut butter gauchos, And I
Speaker 3: don't know if I'm pronouncing that.
Speaker 1: A gauchos correct gaucho is a type of cookie. I
Speaker 1: mean I referred to as a cookie.
Speaker 4: But the word gaucho is like, that's a it's a
Speaker 4: Mexican cowboy.
Speaker 3: No, that's right.
Speaker 5: See, I believe that's correct. Peanut butter gauchos. Mothers has
Speaker 5: other types that are fine, fine, or I haven't tried
Speaker 5: to have the taffy, the chocolate sandwich, but the peanut
Speaker 5: butter gaucho is another world.
Speaker 4: I think mothers are famous for those their circus or
Speaker 4: animal cookies, and those.
Speaker 2: For me are not. That is not weird, waxy sugar, But.
Speaker 4: What's the deal with a Gaucho's So it's like a
Speaker 4: peanut butter oreo.

Speaker 3: The gauchos used to sit and a lot of the
Speaker 3: cowboys used to sing a song called Green Grows the Grass,
