Speaker 1: Hey there at elms here, your tireless, dedicated and benevolent
Speaker 1: host of Snaffoo, your favorite podcast about history's greatest screw ups.
Speaker 1: And this week we're doing something kind of special. It's
Speaker 1: not just a regular episode. This is a compilation episode,
Speaker 1: a clip show, if you will, and not just any
Speaker 1: clip show. For today's episode, I dove back into some
Speaker 1: of my favorite episodes from this season and I plucked
Speaker 1: out the spiciest hot takes, the biggest laughs, and some
Speaker 1: of the most wonderfully unhinged moments with my incredible roster
Speaker 1: of guests. So for example, Chelsea Handler's just wonderful plug
Speaker 1: for microdosing psychedelics and Nick Krall's deep sea fishing fiasco
Speaker 1: it does involve barf spoiler alert, Jenny Slat's strikingly casual
Speaker 1: take on her own susceptibility to cult switch as someone
Speaker 1: with deep affection for Jenny Slat was kind of unnerving.
Speaker 1: That's just a smattering a taste, if you will, there's
Speaker 1: so much more. So keep listening or watching, of course,
Speaker 1: for a fun romp through the last six months of Snaffoo,
Speaker 1: and be sure to stick around to the very end,
Speaker 1: because I saved the best for last enjoy. It can
Speaker 1: sort of like eat you a little bit.
Speaker 2: That's what I found.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well Ed, I'm dead inside.
Speaker 4: So every time you say that it's a town full
Speaker 4: of miners or dust, the angry miners who can't drink alcohol,
Speaker 4: I picture a bunch of twelve year olds. We're just
Speaker 4: fighting with each other over beer that doesn't exist.
Speaker 1: Yes, they're like Adam Scott's on my flight and he
Speaker 1: won't put down. He's like galling at the flight attendant.
Speaker 1: It's about getting more tomato juice, and they're like me,
Speaker 1: my tomato juice, out of tomato juice.
Speaker 2: It's so weird.
Speaker 5: For folks who don't know.
Speaker 4: I took it to year sabbatical from acting with the
Speaker 4: intent to always come back acting and performing as my
Speaker 4: first love. But I was the President's li ison to
Speaker 4: young Americans and Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in an
Speaker 4: office called the Office of Public Engagement. Think of it
Speaker 4: as like an outreach office. And on my third day
Speaker 4: the National Security.
Speaker 2: Council, you in the White House, in the.
Speaker 4: White House, in the actual White House, they add me
Speaker 4: to a massive email chain. And these email chains have
Speaker 4: like one hundred people on them. Real serious national security
Speaker 4: people in those days, and everything in government is an acronym, right,
Speaker 4: So like, for example, if you get an email from
Speaker 4: the National Security Council, it'll say National Security Council. Then
Speaker 4: any other time in the email it'll just say NSC.
Speaker 4: And so they had they said, you know, plus cal
Speaker 4: cal because you're the president's new the ason to the
Speaker 4: Asian American community, you should know about this delegation from
Speaker 4: the Philippines that's meeting at the White House. And the
Speaker 4: thing that you should know is about this terror group
Speaker 4: in the Philippines that you might get questions on. They're
Speaker 4: called the Moro Islamic Liberation Front. And then in parentheses
Speaker 4: it just said MILF. And then the rest of the email,
Speaker 4: I'm not working with you. The rest of the email
Speaker 4: said MILF is considered highly dangerous, MILF is known to
Speaker 4: recruit young men, and then things like things like you know,
Speaker 4: many young men grow to the to regret their affiliation
Speaker 4: with MILF over time.
Speaker 2: This is the opposite of a snapoo. This is delightful.
Speaker 1: I love that there are these little, uh, these little
Speaker 1: nuggets of governmental awkwardness.
Speaker 5: Great.
Speaker 4: So I thought this was so wonderful that in my
Speaker 4: head I'm at my desk, laughing my ass off. I
Speaker 4: hit reply all and I wrote, Yo, their main terror
Speaker 4: group are the MILFs?
Speaker 5: Amazing? And I hit send.
Speaker 4: And as soon as I hit send, I was like,
Speaker 4: you idiot, you are not in a writer's room at Universal.
Speaker 4: You are in the White House on an email chain
Speaker 4: with the National Security Council.
Speaker 5: And I couldn't unsend it.
Speaker 4: And I and it like it was silent after that,
Speaker 4: And in the hallway, coworkers, many of whom in the
Speaker 4: in the pod world you all know, a lot of
Speaker 4: the Pod Save America guys, and Tommy Viatort and Ben
Speaker 4: Rhodes and these guys I worked with at the time
Speaker 4: in the hallway were.
Speaker 5: Like, yo, that you was so funny. We were all
Speaker 5: thinking it.
Speaker 4: Like, will one of you please hit reply all and
Speaker 4: just say lol. That's all I need. I just need
Speaker 4: one of you to l ol me. And they all
Speaker 4: were like, hell no, man, this is gonna be a
Speaker 4: public record one day. I just don't want my name
Speaker 4: associated with you calling out the milk thing. So that
Speaker 4: was my one of my professional snafoos.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I love it.
Speaker 1: You know the only thing that would have made that
Speaker 1: snapoo better is if Obama himself had like walked up
Speaker 1: into your office like leaning against the door jam, and
Speaker 1: it's been like, cow, buddy, what the hell we're gonna
Speaker 1: have to fire you?
Speaker 2: Like you're gonna this is not you can't do this.
Speaker 4: If that were the case, so I felt like it
Speaker 4: would have gone the other way and he would have
Speaker 4: just been like, did you see the name of this
Speaker 4: terror group?
Speaker 2: I feel like the government needs more people like you.
Speaker 1: Cal a lot more fun, a lot more like chuckles
Speaker 1: in the hallways.
Speaker 5: And I enjoyed it.
Speaker 1: It's so serious all the time. Yeah, angry mobs were
Speaker 1: a real big deal at this point.
Speaker 2: They're really scary.
Speaker 6: I mean we had we had one recently in our
Speaker 6: in our nation. It's scary. Yeah, they're scary.
Speaker 2: They don't generally make good decisions. No.
Speaker 1: I read somewhere a quote I wish I could remember
Speaker 1: who to attributed to. Uh, the intelligence of a mob
Speaker 1: is that of the dumbest person in the mob. So
Speaker 1: like the behavior like an entire mob behaves as the
Speaker 1: dumbest person in the mob.
Speaker 6: Actually, I was just thinking about like it. For some reason,
Speaker 6: Americans were able to be totally silent while someone rolled
Speaker 6: through town that they didn't like that, like when I
Speaker 6: said we'd never be able to do it, Like I
Speaker 6: was fully imagining myself in the in the silent crowd,
Speaker 6: not being able to stop myself from being.
Speaker 2: Like hoo farted, like just like.
Speaker 7: That.
Speaker 6: It's so tempting to disturb, you know, the stillness. I
Speaker 6: think I would be the weakest there was, the dumbest
Speaker 6: person in the in the mob. I'm the person that
Speaker 6: changes us from a core cohort into like a freak out.
Speaker 1: Could you ever see yourself being swept up in a mob?
Speaker 2: I think it's emotionally yeah, because I feel like it's
Speaker 2: one of those things that that we all think like.
Speaker 1: We're that were It's sort of like cults, right, Everyone
Speaker 1: says like I could never join a cult, like I
Speaker 1: would never fall for that, in saying I'm too, you would.
Speaker 6: I don't think I would be in a mob because
Speaker 6: I don't consider myself to be like an impulsive person
Speaker 6: and I don't have like a sort of you know,
Speaker 6: like the switch blade of a temper that she's like
Speaker 6: come out.
Speaker 3: But I really love.
Speaker 6: Friendly groups.
Speaker 2: I love cooking.
Speaker 6: I love it when people are like trying to help
Speaker 6: each other actualize their dreams, and I like it when
Speaker 6: people like are dedicated to each other, and a lot
Speaker 6: of times cults are like non violent.
Speaker 3: I used to have a stand up bit about this.
Speaker 6: Actually about how like I would totally get drawn into
Speaker 6: the into a cult because like, I like all the
Speaker 6: things that they do, except I don't like having to
Speaker 6: be naked in a group of people, and I don't
Speaker 6: like having to do like oral sex to like a
Speaker 6: very very elderly person who has a long beard, which
Speaker 6: I feel like they make you do like the head
Speaker 6: of the cult.
Speaker 2: That is that's in the cult bylaws.
Speaker 6: There's usually some guy who's like, you know what, Actually,
Speaker 6: a lot of the more interesting members of the cult
Speaker 6: are are doing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yees oh wait, why haven't you you fallen into
Speaker 1: a cult?
Speaker 2: Then there are lots of them out there. There are
Speaker 2: lots of great options.
Speaker 6: Hey, I've got a strong family, really great friends that
Speaker 6: are like no, no, no, no no no, don't don't
Speaker 6: going there.
Speaker 2: Good answer.
Speaker 1: I also think that you are a inquisitive person, and
Speaker 1: you're someone who like you're you're not only very intelligent
Speaker 1: and sort of like educated, and you've taken it upon
Speaker 1: yourself to learn about the world and learn about people,
Speaker 1: and I think that is some of the best armor
Speaker 1: against these kinds of group think or indoctrination of some kind.
Speaker 1: The minute you start asking questions, even with genuine curiosity,
Speaker 1: not even like an accusatory like wait a minute, but
Speaker 1: you're just sort of like, now, hold on, why do
Speaker 1: you think I should I should blow that old man
Speaker 1: with a beard?
Speaker 2: Like what's the reason? Like why are we gets?
Speaker 6: Well, we have to do that though, you know, like
Speaker 6: if we're all going to transcend and like you know,
Speaker 6: have clear minds, like why would we need to do that?
Speaker 3: Yeah? And you know what is a good place to
Speaker 3: start for.
Speaker 6: Me sometimes is like I will ask myself for sometimes
Speaker 6: other peopeople, like if this were a.
Speaker 2: Movie, who would you be?
Speaker 6: And like what part of the story, Like would it
Speaker 6: seemed like a good story, if this were a parable,
Speaker 6: if this were like a religious text or a fairy tale,
Speaker 6: who would you be?
Speaker 2: Who would they be?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Who would they be? That's a great question. Who would
Speaker 2: I think You're onto?
Speaker 1: Something really quite elegant, which is that stories, movies parables
Speaker 1: the sort of broad whatever gestalt.
Speaker 2: Of human storytelling.
Speaker 1: It is rooted in fundamental values, right, like a sense
Speaker 1: of right and wrong. My kid loves the Lion King,
Speaker 1: and so I've gotten very deep into the sort of
Speaker 1: like Lion King universe, and that is a movie where
Speaker 1: good and bad is so clearly delineated, and bad is
Speaker 1: portrayed with Nazi symbolism totally.
Speaker 6: I mean stars when he sings be prepared, that is,
Speaker 6: those those.
Speaker 2: Communis are literally goose stepping.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's uh and so it's it's so interesting
Speaker 1: to me that those kinds of stories that that obviously
Speaker 1: have an intent to kind of raise children with a
Speaker 1: sense of right and wrong and a sense of sort
Speaker 1: of trepidation towards that kind of behavior, towards Scar's behavior. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and yet we see a cultural swing to a greater
Speaker 1: trust in that. Like, I'm so confused. That's such cognitive
Speaker 1: dissonance for me and that I'm trying to work through
Speaker 1: and understand.
Speaker 9: So I was away with my whole family. We were
Speaker 9: in I think Puerto Rico on a family vacation around
Speaker 9: I think, you know, like Christmas vacation, and so my
Speaker 9: dad thought that a cool thing to do would be
Speaker 9: to Orger and I was a deep sea fishing trip
Speaker 9: for my mom's birthday because my dad knows nothing about
Speaker 9: what is my mom would enjoy. So they packed us,
Speaker 9: like the hotel packed us a bunch of like tuna sandwiches,
Speaker 9: because you know, Puerto Rico is famous for its tuna
Speaker 9: fish sandwiches. My family ranged from about eight to fifteen.
Speaker 9: Four of us my parents, and you're the youngest, right,
Speaker 9: I'm the youngest. Yeah, you're eight. I'm eight or nine
Speaker 9: years old. And we get on the boat. We're going
Speaker 9: out to the deep sea, and the waves are horrible,
Speaker 9: like we later found out that a tanker had capsized
Speaker 9: that day in the Atlantic, so the waves were massive.
Speaker 9: We were just getting hummeled and we all were sitting
Speaker 9: there and the entire family puked our tuna fish sandwiches
Speaker 9: out all over all over the place, except for my dad,
Speaker 9: who just sat in the captain's chair gripping like the
Speaker 9: chair turning. I'd never seen you know when people say,
Speaker 9: like he turned green, like I've never seen it really
Speaker 9: since before since, but my dad turned fully like like
Speaker 9: a shar truse, and all of us just absolutely rapped
Speaker 9: all over this boat and it was like happy birthday, Mom.
Speaker 1: This is this is perfect and the best part is
Speaker 1: like a tuna fish sandish sandwich smells horrendous to begin fresh,
Speaker 1: like a fresh sandwich right out of the deli's like it, Oh,
Speaker 1: it's kind of a gross thing already, and then to
Speaker 1: eat it and then to regurgitate it is a is.
Speaker 2: Just an unthinkable stench. It's not ideal.
Speaker 1: No, well, that's very tragic, and I'm very very sorry.
Speaker 1: I do wonder though, like someone you know, you look
Speaker 1: at these presidents, whether it's a Trump or a Barack
Speaker 1: Obama or somebody, You're like, how many good close friends
Speaker 1: are they able to maintain that?
Speaker 2: At that point?
Speaker 1: I would think someone like Trump is like so hard
Speaker 1: to get close to and so hard to sort of
Speaker 1: like feel a sense of trust with, even if you're
Speaker 1: if you match his core values whatever they are, like,
Speaker 1: it just seems I don't know, they're so their their
Speaker 1: life is so public and it's so committed to the
Speaker 1: public eye.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean I think, like, yeah, the usage of
Speaker 10: a friend as somebody who you could truly be honest
Speaker 10: with and empathize with and you could like be vulnerable with.
Speaker 10: I see people like Trump who sees almost everybody as
Speaker 10: like a means to an end. Everything has a loyalty, right,
Speaker 10: and even things. You know, not to smirch any relationships,
Speaker 10: but those don't seem to be the most friendly and open.
Speaker 10: Those seem transactional as well. And you're like, oh, what
Speaker 10: happens to a human who doesn't have a like an
Speaker 10: emotional sounding board or compatriot that isn't tied up into
Speaker 10: your own personal success?
Speaker 2: Are you expressing it?
Speaker 1: Are are you starting to express some some deep compassion
Speaker 1: for Donald Trump?
Speaker 10: Oh my god, I've stumbled on it. We've we've created
Speaker 10: a monster and I just want to give him a.
Speaker 11: Huge That's what probably all he needs. Jordan didn't give
Speaker 11: a hug. Yeah, group, come on, let's do it. Let's
Speaker 11: let's break through this. You could be a better person.
Speaker 1: I got a Rivian right now, bragg Yeah, mad respect bro.
Speaker 12: By the way, you couldn't be more of a dad
Speaker 12: when a Rivian suv is a brag.
Speaker 2: I'm driving a porch.
Speaker 12: I'm like, dude, I got a car that can fit
Speaker 12: six kids, luggage and a dog, and you go, Jesus,
Speaker 12: you're winning. It doesn't go fast, and I will I
Speaker 12: will say it's not that much fun to drive, But
Speaker 12: the lot of the storage in that baby, I.
Speaker 1: Feel like, what makes me not a criminal mastermind, is
Speaker 1: like I as soon as I even start to think
Speaker 1: about that, I just start sweating.
Speaker 13: By the way I am, it is so far in
Speaker 13: the degree of panic for me, even when I know
Speaker 13: I've done nothing wrong. Exactly, if you were like, hey, hey,
Speaker 13: I need to talk to you later, I'd be like,
Speaker 13: what have I done? What don't I remember?
Speaker 2: And then you're starting what I maybe do when? Not
Speaker 2: the same way? What is what? What childhood trauma led
Speaker 2: us into this? It's so annoying, I mean and like this.
Speaker 1: And it's also very interesting this that that fear of
Speaker 1: being perceived as guilty can I can actually make you
Speaker 1: act more guilty.
Speaker 13: And this is a and here's the thing, and I
Speaker 13: bet you get this. When you're an actor, people think
Speaker 13: you must be a good liar. And I'm like, no,
Speaker 13: I memorize other people's words. I can't come up with
Speaker 13: them on my own.
Speaker 3: I'm not like a liar.
Speaker 2: Ony I'm bad at that exactly now.
Speaker 1: On paper, Paul, explosive growth is great, right, But is
Speaker 1: it always good for a community?
Speaker 14: No?
Speaker 15: I know is it's just an efficient way to stress people.
Speaker 15: I mean, I know this from many years of playing
Speaker 15: the SIMS video game. You can't feel too quick. Things happen.
Speaker 15: You know you can't. You can't keep up supply and demand. Yeah,
Speaker 15: there's a lot of jobs, but then you know there
Speaker 15: are enough sewage plants exactly.
Speaker 8: You know.
Speaker 1: Things happens as someone who's known you a long long time.
Speaker 1: So many of us have been trying to pull you
Speaker 1: out of SIM city.
Speaker 2: I did, and I'm not even on the SIMS. I'm
Speaker 2: not even doing the people. I can't.
Speaker 1: I'm so worried about when SIM goes VR and you'll like,
Speaker 1: just you'll be so immersed.
Speaker 2: I gotta put this baseball stadium somewhere. And you guess
Speaker 2: who we're talking about. Napoleon Bonaparte, Bonaparte, Napoleon.
Speaker 1: Why is it so fun to do that accent? I
Speaker 1: hope it's not too offensive. It's only an offensive. It's
Speaker 1: if it's a bad accent. I have a very good accent, right.
Speaker 7: We're also running out of accents we can make fun
Speaker 7: of without it being a problem, So I think we
Speaker 7: got to hang on to make in fun of the French.
Speaker 1: It's kind of sad that to a lot of Americans,
Speaker 1: French people are basically the chef in little Mermaid.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, which is preposterous, Like can.
Speaker 7: You still sing any of that song? And do you
Speaker 7: have the rights to sing it on this podcast?
Speaker 2: What is this?
Speaker 8: So on earth?
Speaker 2: Could I miss such a such a sweet.
Speaker 1: The most amazing thing about that song is that they
Speaker 1: rhyme poisson with haant he goes.
Speaker 2: That's the most French thing ever. That's a rhyme. That's
Speaker 2: part of the lyrics is love that our brains will
Speaker 2: forever hang on to that.
Speaker 7: There's so many more useful things that should be lodged
Speaker 7: up in there, but I will forever remember all the
Speaker 7: lyrics to that.
Speaker 14: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I have a couple of little kids, so it's like
Speaker 1: still hitting me in the face constantly.
Speaker 14: Fats are people try to like free them in amber?
Speaker 14: There are there are ways and means to freeze them
Speaker 14: in amber, now I think so anyway, that's not answering
Speaker 14: your question.
Speaker 2: To answer your question, of course you fell for the boos.
Speaker 14: Right off thousands, Yes, there's at least there are two
Speaker 14: in my kitchen of all places.
Speaker 5: Terrible place to keep them.
Speaker 14: Why they their furry, they're they're they're going to catch
Speaker 14: something crumbs, you know, you know, Uh, let's fire on fire.
Speaker 14: They are dangerously true story class. That is a synthetic fur.
Speaker 14: I don't know what it's probably mine, mine, mine, a
Speaker 14: human hair. I know my every fat. I'm playing this
Speaker 14: Pokemon game right now. That is like all over the internet.
Speaker 14: I'm looking at Lisa Frank stickers right now. I would
Speaker 14: call those a fad. There's a great documentary about how
Speaker 14: what is that? Lisa Frank? You don't know, Lisa Frank?
Speaker 2: Wait do I?
Speaker 5: What is that?
Speaker 2: These are?
Speaker 14: These are big in like the nineties and aunts. These
Speaker 14: more on every single like space saver binder backpack in
Speaker 14: the late nineties, early ats anyway.
Speaker 1: And you have a fresh path, like right there on
Speaker 1: your desk, I'm scared. But when I'm worried that that
Speaker 1: like right off camera there's like towering stuff like everything
Speaker 1: that you've bought off of infomercials and like la boo
Speaker 1: boos and that that that one false move and it's
Speaker 1: gonna collapse and we're gonna have to like call an
Speaker 1: ambulance to get you out.
Speaker 14: This is my audition for hoarders, and this is that's
Speaker 14: my gift. In closet, everyone has some structural thing where
Speaker 14: it's just a bunch of crap, and you're like, I'm
Speaker 14: gonna give I'm gonna like a hand this off to
Speaker 14: like the next person who comes to my house, and
Speaker 14: like I feel like should leave with something.
Speaker 2: Amen.
Speaker 1: I wish, I wish I had a gifting closet.
Speaker 2: I take one thing from this, It's that I need
Speaker 2: a gifting closet.
Speaker 1: Sixteen passengers sustained minor injuries, and most of those were
Speaker 1: from the evacuation of the plane, which that's usually what happens, yeah, right,
Speaker 1: which reportedly was completed in approximately ninety seconds. And that's
Speaker 1: incredible to me because when I think of like people deplaning,
Speaker 1: it is such a just dumpster fire of elbows and
Speaker 1: anger and luggage pulling down whatever. But I would also
Speaker 1: imagine that being scared of a plane exploding might help
Speaker 1: you get off very quicker.
Speaker 16: Yeah, I have a question for you. I always think
Speaker 16: about because just the other day people had to evacuate
Speaker 16: a Southwest flight or something, and I saw the footage
Speaker 16: of them like bouncing down the slide that they deploy.
Speaker 2: Off the side of the plane.
Speaker 1: I missed that.
Speaker 16: And I know that they always say when you are
Speaker 16: evacuating a plane, do not grab your bags. Nothing you
Speaker 16: just get off the plane. Would you have a tough
Speaker 16: time just leaving your stuff on the planet. I feel
Speaker 16: like I would grab my bag no matter what they said.
Speaker 16: I guess it depends how dire the situation. What's in
Speaker 16: your bag, Adam?
Speaker 2: Is it your hair?
Speaker 16: Like?
Speaker 2: What's going on here? Do we need to talk about this?
Speaker 14: Ed?
Speaker 1: Take it easy, don't want to be a question raises
Speaker 1: additional questions.
Speaker 2: I guess you're right, never mind, never mind, moving on.
Speaker 1: I think I would. I think I would be pretty
Speaker 1: okay leaving my bag. Okay, yeah, I mean I like
Speaker 1: my AirPod Max's and I love my laptop. I kind
Speaker 1: of would die without it. I don't love it, but
Speaker 1: I would be in trouble without it.
Speaker 5: But I would leave it.
Speaker 8: I would leave it behind.
Speaker 1: I don't think that makes me a better person than you, Adam,
Speaker 1: but maybe maybe a.
Speaker 16: Litt I was just kidding when I said all that
Speaker 16: about wanting to grab my bag. That wasn't real.
Speaker 2: I still think you're a good person. Oh, thank you.
Speaker 1: The concrete jungle is basically like a concrete oven. Now,
Speaker 1: I from Georgia, you're from Kentucky. We know a thing
Speaker 1: or two about heat, but there's something uniquely punishing about
Speaker 1: New York City summer. Right, as much as we love
Speaker 1: New York like, it gets hard.
Speaker 8: It's brutal because it's humid. It gets humid more so
Speaker 8: than you think, and the buildings really trap it all in,
Speaker 8: so you're just stuck in it and you can't escape
Speaker 8: into your air conditioned car very easily because you don't
Speaker 8: really drive in New York.
Speaker 1: So can we talk about the smell? Can we talk
Speaker 1: a little bit about the smell. It's like that the
Speaker 1: trash is just baking. It's like the trash cans are
Speaker 1: these little ovens that bake everything.
Speaker 2: And then of course.
Speaker 1: Anything any street runoff is like just cooking on the
Speaker 1: hot asphalt and rising into the humidity.
Speaker 3: Cooking up a stew a city. Yeah, it's urine.
Speaker 8: There's even here where we film at The Daily Show
Speaker 8: in Lovely Hell's Kitchen. We're in between a subway restaurant
Speaker 8: which has the lovely aroma of baked bread, and on
Speaker 8: the other side are the horse stables just oh yeah,
Speaker 8: horseshit and a little bit of baked bread and then garbage,
Speaker 8: and you're in.
Speaker 3: Smell from the don Park across the street.
Speaker 8: Summer over here gets real, real interesting, real quick.
Speaker 1: It's funny how consistent that smell is, like every summer,
Speaker 1: it's just the like, you know, like that's hot city
Speaker 1: smell and it's not good but weirdly, I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: say it, it's kind of nostalgic.
Speaker 2: Now, It's like it's comforting.
Speaker 1: It's like fresh cut grass, like it brings back memories.
Speaker 3: Maybe we should start in Aroma company, Like we should
Speaker 3: make a candle that has that New York summer smell
Speaker 3: and we could we could go out with you would
Speaker 3: sell city summer funk, the fun City summer funk.
Speaker 2: This is the fun of the city sun City summer fun.
Speaker 2: I think it would sell. I'm not gonna say like
Speaker 2: hot cakes.
Speaker 3: I'm just throwing it out there.
Speaker 1: There's another kind of trip that I feel like you're
Speaker 1: an expert in that I I just am not. And
Speaker 1: I want to know more about Will you sell me
Speaker 1: on micro dosing hallucinogens.
Speaker 17: I just feel like it's you know what, the best
Speaker 17: way to describe it is, we just took some LSD
Speaker 17: me and my friends when we went to these ice
Speaker 17: caves in Pemberton, and I would say the best way
Speaker 17: to describe it is. It puts an exclamation point on
Speaker 17: whatever experience you're having. So if you're outside, especially if
Speaker 17: you're in some sort of cool nature environment. We were
Speaker 17: in a glacier, in a cave underneath a glacier, so
Speaker 17: that was pretty cool, and it just kind of makes
Speaker 17: you really sit and appreciate whatever experience you're having.
Speaker 2: It adds a little.
Speaker 17: Giggle too to the situation, which is always welcome for me.
Speaker 17: I like to laugh and like to not be, you know,
Speaker 17: taking myself too seriously. But it's just an accentuation of life,
Speaker 17: and it kind of makes you have a little bit
Speaker 17: extra gratitude, which is one of the aspects that I
Speaker 17: don't think people talk about enough. It makes you really
Speaker 17: grateful to be exposed to the things that we're exposed
Speaker 17: to do. Even if I go skiing for an afternoon
Speaker 17: with my girlfriend's up here, you know, and if I
Speaker 17: take a microdose, it's like I spend more time looking
Speaker 17: at the trees, looking at the view, looking at all
Speaker 17: the beauty that's surrounding me, rather than just you know,
Speaker 17: kind of being in your head. Kind of it gives
Speaker 17: you a release, So I feel like the whole world
Speaker 17: needs a microdose I am.
Speaker 1: Very interested in this. Now, would you also advocate the
Speaker 1: occasional macro dose?
Speaker 16: I would?
Speaker 2: I would.
Speaker 17: It really depends on your personality and how much you
Speaker 17: can handle. But those years of me and the macro
Speaker 17: dosing that was like years and years ago. Now I
Speaker 17: like just a little punch, like like I like a
Speaker 17: little an MDMA they do. Everything's a microdose now, so
Speaker 17: you don't have to be scared to.
Speaker 2: Do it, you know.
Speaker 17: And also I would like to say, you know, not
Speaker 17: everybody gets along so well with drugs.
Speaker 2: I do.
Speaker 17: We have a good working relationship, so I know what
Speaker 17: my limits are. I've done lots and lots of testing,
Speaker 17: so I know exactly what's going to work for me
Speaker 17: and what isn't. And in Canada they have the cleanest drugs.
Speaker 2: So that's so yeah. So I'm a big advocate of that.
Speaker 17: I think it helps a lot of people and helps people,
Speaker 17: you know, in more serious ways than it's helping me.
Speaker 3: And I love sharing my drugs too. I love giving
Speaker 3: them away.
Speaker 17: My whole tour is basically about me traveling around the
Speaker 17: world handing out LSD to strangers.
Speaker 2: That's so great. You're just you're like the little gem,
Speaker 2: the healer. You're the pied piper of my career. I
Speaker 2: like to think of myself as a shirpa. I expect it, you.
Speaker 17: Know, coming from me, But that's where I'm at in
Speaker 17: my life.
Speaker 2: Just a quick question. You were on the show Survivor.
Speaker 2: That's right.
Speaker 1: Did you guys at any point on that show ever
Speaker 1: consider eating one another, just like casually, like a backup plan.
Speaker 18: The truth is I was only I was only surviving
Speaker 18: for three nights, which meant I only really missed three dinners,
Speaker 18: and eating a fellow person doesn't come up after three dinners.
Speaker 18: You're already taking this question too seriously, but so it
Speaker 18: never comes to that. The other thing, too, is there
Speaker 18: are coconuts strewn about. Sure, right, you know the exact
Speaker 18: number of coconuts one might need to survive happened to
Speaker 18: be randomly distributed by I think god.
Speaker 2: H Yeah.
Speaker 1: Since nineteen fifty there have somehow been a whopping thirty
Speaker 1: two broken arrow incidents. This includes that left wait wait yeah, raising.
Speaker 3: One, thirty two super dupe.
Speaker 2: Nookes, super gone, super duper knukers.
Speaker 19: Thirty two nuclear weapons. Oi YOI now I know why
Speaker 19: they call it broken arrows, Because when you say you
Speaker 19: know what, we have thirty two broken arrows. You're like, oh,
Speaker 19: if you say we have thirty two lost nuclear weapons?
Speaker 2: Wait stop, what say again? Euphemisms make hard things a
Speaker 2: lot easier? Oh man, yeah, yeah, yeah, thirty two.
Speaker 3: That's why Greg called all of our talking heads candy bags.
Speaker 2: You know, I forgot that.
Speaker 7: He said that he always felt bad giving us pages
Speaker 7: and pages of extra monologues, so he was like, I'll
Speaker 7: name them something.
Speaker 2: Fun, So we named them candy bags. I loved those.
Speaker 1: I loved doing those talking heads and like coming up
Speaker 1: with like new rifts and like the candy bag alts,
Speaker 1: like all the different versions of our talking heads. Like
Speaker 1: just it was like getting a window into the writer's brains.
Speaker 1: I just remember loveing the math of those jokes and
Speaker 1: like always trying to think about how to heighten them
Speaker 1: and they'd have to kick me out of those talking heads.
Speaker 19: But to your point, naming all the extra work a
Speaker 19: candy bag, it's a trick definitely made it go down easier.
Speaker 19: And also calling all our screw ups bloopers makes them
Speaker 19: sound fun too, like oh that was a blooper, Like
Speaker 19: that's just a broken arrow.
Speaker 3: I mean even the word Snaffoo is kind of fun.
Speaker 1: Snaffoo, guys, it's just a snaffoo whoopsie boozy.
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm back, and boy was that fun. I love
Speaker 2: this show.
