Welcome to Comedy Bang Bang. It is a. Hey, it's a Thursday. What. What is happening? Why are we releasing an episode on the Thursday? Well, I forgot to tell you on Monday that I'm gonna try to do a couple extra episodes a month of the show, so.
Kristen Schaal
Need the cash.
Scott Aukerman
Need the cash. Thanks. That's a guest who's coming up who said she clams up on podcasts, then immediately made aspirations about my level of poverty. But she'll be coming up in a second. Maybe you recognize the voice. Maybe you're like, oh, I know who that is. I know her from her foray into voice acting in Bob's Burgers. But we'll get to her. We'll get to her. But, yeah, we're gonna be doing a few Thursday episodes a month, maybe two, sometimes three a month. So this is our first. So enjoy those. Just some extra B B B B B bonus. So. So, yeah, enjoy those. And boy, what. What an episode we have today. Before we get to our main guest, I do want to welcome our co host for the show. You heard her on the Demetri Martin episode last December. The end of the world did not occur. And she's a stand up comedian from Lawrenceville. The last time we saw her, she was trying to get a ride home from Dimitri, who grew up in New Jersey. And we don't know whether that happened or not, but I do want to welcome her. Nancy Cooper is with us. Hello, Nancy.
Nancy Cooper
Hi.
Scott Aukerman
So great to have you back on the show.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, thank you.
Scott Aukerman
What brings you to Los Angeles here?
Nancy Cooper
Well, I wanted to come back, so I took the bus again.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, so you did go back to Lawrenceville. Did you get a ride? What happened?
Nancy Cooper
I had to take the bus.
Scott Aukerman
Took the bus all the way back to Lawrenceville. How long of a trip is that?
Nancy Cooper
It's five days to go back.
Scott Aukerman
Wow.
Nancy Cooper
And then it's five days to come back.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. So it's the exact same amount of time going there as it is to come back. Great. So it sounds like a 10 day round trip.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah. But when I was back, I did more stand up.
Scott Aukerman
Oh good. And now for those of you who didn't hear last year's episode, you have been doing stand up how many performances?
Nancy Cooper
Last time I was here I did it six times. And then since then I've done it three more times.
Scott Aukerman
Total of nine times.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, so now I've done it nine times. And the next time I do it will be 10. And the next time I do it will be 11. And the next time I do it will be 12.
Scott Aukerman
And you do it exclusively where again.
Nancy Cooper
It'S a Charlie Brown steakhouse. You know it, right?
Scott Aukerman
I mean, I've heard of Charlie Brown. I mean, Charles Schulz created him back in the 50s.
Nancy Cooper
Uh huh. Well, it's a steakhouse.
Scott Aukerman
Right.
Nancy Cooper
And there's a room on the side and Mr. Henry says I can do a stand up down.
Scott Aukerman
Now here's what I wanted to ask about that room on the side. Are there people in that room on the side like eating or do they have to congregate in order to see the show?
Nancy Cooper
I think that they're waiting for a table.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, so it's more of a lounge area. Is there a bar?
Nancy Cooper
No.
Scott Aukerman
Oh wow. I would hate to hang out in a tiny room with no bar waiting for a table.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, there's just. And then I do my. I tell jokes.
Scott Aukerman
Uh huh. Is it by the main entrance? Do people walk in?
Nancy Cooper
It's by the bathroom.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. I mean that's not mutually exclusive. It can be by both the main entrance and the bathroom.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah. Uh huh. It's by the. But when you walk in, then you have to walk to the left and then there's the bathroom and then there's the room.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, so anyone going out there in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, who wants to see Nancy stand up, you walk in, you walk to the left, and then you walk to the left again and there's that room and there's a good chance you'll be doing it. How often do you do that? I mean, you've done it three times in the last month. It sounds like. So once every nine days.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, once every, yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Is there a particular night that you do it on?
Nancy Cooper
No. And sometimes I do it at four and sometimes I do it at seven.
Scott Aukerman
Comedy is more of a night thing. If Arsenio taught us anything.
Nancy Cooper
I got a new cat too.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, unrelated or is that related to your comedy career?
Nancy Cooper
No.
Scott Aukerman
Tell us about your cat.
Nancy Cooper
I just got a new one. So now I have 18.
Scott Aukerman
Oh gosh. Yeah. And we heard a lot about your grandmother who has trouble getting out of the bath.
Nancy Cooper
She's still in the tub.
Scott Aukerman
She's in the tub? Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
And then if you want to give me a ride home, then you can help me get her.
Scott Aukerman
Get her out of the tub? Yeah. You had a lot of trouble getting her out of the tub, as I recall. You need a lot of help in that regard. And a lot of washing machines on your front porch.
Nancy Cooper
Uh huh. There's seven. Hey, did you ever notice how there's seven washing machines on my front porch? You know what I mean? You know what I'm talking about? You know what I mean?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was one of your signature jokes that we talked about last time.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah. And then you know what else I learned? I learned something else.
Scott Aukerman
What's that?
Nancy Cooper
After you tell a joke, you know, first you have to say, have you ever noticed? Have you ever noticed? Or don't you hate it when. And then after you say your joke, then you say, you know what I mean, you know what I'm talking about. But then before you can say another joke, you have to say, what else, what else, what else, what else, what.
Scott Aukerman
Else, what else, what else, what else.
Nancy Cooper
What else, what else, what else, what else?
Scott Aukerman
Okay. Have you ever. Now we talked about putting them all together last time. Don't you hate it when. No. Have you ever noticed you hate it when. Fill in the blank. You guys know what I mean? What else, what else, what else, what else? So, boy, the evolution of the craft.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, like, did you ever notice. Don't you hate it when you have to sleep on the couch because your room is filled with National Geographic magazines? You know what I mean? You know what I'm talking about? You know what I mean? What else, what else, what else, what else?
Scott Aukerman
Great, that's really good. That's some A material there.
Nancy Cooper
Uh huh. Because it's true.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, well, comedy comes from truth.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, exactly, because there's National Geographic stacked up in what was my bedroom.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, but you know, that's relatable because we all know if. Even if we don't have National Geographics in our own room, we have them in some room. So it's relatable to everyone.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, yeah, and there's some AARP magazines too.
Scott Aukerman
All right, and those must be your grandmothers, I'm guessing. All right, well, I mean, if you haven't heard of Nancy before, I think that gives you a pretty good sort of frame of reference of what her life is like. And we'll talk a little bit. We didn't talk last time about the wheelchair that you're in. We'll talk about that a little bit after we talk to our next guest here. A little bit. But our next guest is a stand up comedian and a very acclaimed one at that. And so, Nancy, I bet you have a lot of questions for her and we'll get to those after we introduce her. But you heard her voice before talking about how poor I am.
Kristen Schaal
I did not talk about that. I asked a question. Is it because you need the money or do you just love podcasts?
Scott Aukerman
No, you said you need the money.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, whoops. But how much money do you make on these podcasts?
Scott Aukerman
On these podcasts? Yeah, it's any. I mean, you know, a lot of times people don't want to talk about how much money they make, but I'll.
Kristen Schaal
Tell you, it's a new year.
Scott Aukerman
I'll tell you exactly. I make about 423,000 a year on the podcast. About 423. 424.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, my God.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, it's not a bad living.
Kristen Schaal
I need to start a podcast.
Scott Aukerman
It's not Hollywood good, but, you know, I mean, there's probably. I don't know what people make outside of Hollywood, I would imagine. What do people make? 300,000 a year or something like that outside of Hollywood? I don't know. The standard of living out here is a little different. But I mean, how much money do you make on Bob's Burgers? We'll say your name in a second.
Kristen Schaal
Like $2,000.
Scott Aukerman
$2,000 an episode or a minute. A laugh.
Kristen Schaal
It's like a month.
Rick Faber
A month?
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
You have to get into podcasting.
Kristen Schaal
I gotta get into. What am I doing?
Scott Aukerman
What are you doing?
Kristen Schaal
I'm giving it away for free.
Scott Aukerman
I know, but hey, let's talk about some of your credits. Bob's Burgers. We talked about that. You play. What character do you play?
Kristen Schaal
Louise.
Scott Aukerman
Louise Belcher, Wife to the titular Bob.
Kristen Schaal
No, she's the daughter. The younger boy.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, you're the daughter. That's right.
Kristen Schaal
That's okay.
Scott Aukerman
That's right.
Kristen Schaal
I've never seen the show.
Scott Aukerman
No, of course I have.
Kristen Schaal
It's amazing.
Scott Aukerman
What's his name? John plays.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, John Roberts. Yeah, John.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. And you also were on Flight of the Concords. People remember you from that. You're in a lot of movies. Meet the Krumps. No, the Schmucks.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, Meet the Krumps. Yes, I played all the Krumps.
Scott Aukerman
Right, of course. Kristen Schaal is Here. Welcome to the show. First time on the show. Thanks for coming.
Kristen Schaal
Well, thanks for inviting me finally.
Scott Aukerman
You were on one of our live Chicago shows back in the day.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, yeah, that's right.
Scott Aukerman
You were in a bit of a hurry, as I recall.
Kristen Schaal
I had to go do another show.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. But you're nice enough to come and do about 10 minutes.
Kristen Schaal
Well, yeah, I mean, getting invited to do a Scott Ackerman podcast is a huge honor.
Scott Aukerman
Sure. I spread the wealth around. That's the other thing, Really. I make that 423. 424. But I, you know, I share it with all of you, so. All my guests.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, my gosh.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. So you're gonna walk out with a little walking around money?
Kristen Schaal
Oh, my God.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Kristen Schaal
Thank you so much.
Scott Aukerman
No, it's my pleasure. Of course.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, my God, I'm so hungry.
Scott Aukerman
You're hungry? Sure. What's going on?
Kristen Schaal
I just. I haven't had the change to make it over to the Red Lobster in a long time.
Scott Aukerman
What about a Charlie Brown steakhouse? See, I'm bringing it back around here to Nancy.
Nancy Cooper
You should. Are you gonna give me money, too?
Scott Aukerman
Well, you're just the co host.
Nancy Cooper
You're not a guest, so.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, unfortunately.
Nancy Cooper
Do you know what pennies are?
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
Cause I collect them.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, there's like.
Scott Aukerman
You have a coin collection, do you mean?
Nancy Cooper
Well, I collect pennies, and then I put them in wrappers, and then I take them to the bank. Give me money for them. And you have to put 50 pennies in each wrapper.
Scott Aukerman
Right. And what do they give back to you for that?
Nancy Cooper
If you give them two wrappers full of pennies, that's 50 cents each. They give you a dollar back.
Kristen Schaal
A paper dollar.
Nancy Cooper
A paper dollar bill.
Kristen Schaal
You know what you should really look for? There is a penny, the 1943 penny. If you find it, it's worth $10,000.
Scott Aukerman
Right now, I think there's a 1927 S or something like that. That's the. The most rare penny in the world. Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, I probably had a bunch of them.
Kristen Schaal
You probably give them away. You really need to look at those dates.
Nancy Cooper
Okay. Okay.
Scott Aukerman
That might take a little more time. I'd say maybe four times as long to check the date.
Kristen Schaal
Just check the dates.
Nancy Cooper
Mm. Yeah. Yeah. Cause I don't.
Scott Aukerman
Sounds like you have a lot of time on your hands.
Nancy Cooper
Mm.
Kristen Schaal
I am worried about your grandma. Is anyone else worried about. I mean, she's cool.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, we heard a lot about her. She's fine. She's still in that tub.
Kristen Schaal
Everything good she just likes to soak.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah. And she's like, hey, don't you hate it when your grandma's like, hey, Nancy, stop rummaging through the closets?
Kristen Schaal
You know what else, what else, what else?
Nancy Cooper
What else? You know? Mm. You're good at it. You're good at it.
Kristen Schaal
I'm learning from you, actually. How long is your set? Do you have a type 5?
Nancy Cooper
It could be like 5 minutes or it could be like 10 minutes, or sometimes it's 20 minutes and then 20 minutes.
Scott Aukerman
Did you just get off on a roll? Do you like, do crowd work?
Nancy Cooper
Mm, uh huh. I just, you know. Cause it's all stuff, you know, from real life, you know, so your crowd.
Scott Aukerman
Work is from real life.
Nancy Cooper
And then I say, hey, did you ever notice that there's a man sitting next to a woman in a chair?
Scott Aukerman
So your crowd work is a little more like observational comedy about the people in front of you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. How do they take that? How do they.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah. Then they say, yeah. And then I go, you know what I mean? You know what I mean?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. People enjoy your act.
Nancy Cooper
Mm, mm. I'm good at it. I'm good at it.
Kristen Schaal
I bet you are. Why did you give me that look?
Nancy Cooper
I'm good at it.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, I bet you are. Good.
Scott Aukerman
Speaking of good at it, you're good at it, Kristen, because you have a special coming up, a Comedy Central one hour special. No, it's coming out this next week, right?
Kristen Schaal
No, no, no.
Scott Aukerman
I read about it. I read online.
Kristen Schaal
Well, they made a mistake. Everybody makes mistakes. They made a mistake. So it's not coming out.
Scott Aukerman
It's not coming out now. Cause I read a big press release where Comedy Central talked about everything that was coming out. And you have the Nick Kroll show, which comes out next week. And we'll talk about. We'll talk about that next week, but your show is not coming out. It's a big special on next week.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, I asked them to not release it because it didn't go the way I planned. So it's definitely not coming out January 18th. If it comes out at all, I'll be surprised.
Scott Aukerman
I'm sorry.
Nancy Cooper
That's okay.
Scott Aukerman
I don't mean to bring it up. Yeah, I wish I was just reading the latest press release. They didn't put out a press release correcting that press release.
Kristen Schaal
Well, I guarantee you it's not coming out January 18th.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Kristen Schaal
So sorry. And those people that came to San Francisco and saw the show, they will know why.
Scott Aukerman
When did you tape it?
Kristen Schaal
A while ago. So Anyways, what else shall we talk about?
Scott Aukerman
Oh, sorry.
Kristen Schaal
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
Well, but you are a stand up.
Kristen Schaal
Comedian and I was.
Scott Aukerman
You probably have some advice for, for Nancy here.
Kristen Schaal
I, I would say just, just keep, just keep going. Never stop, you know, just get in that spotlight. You know, Another good thing to do is do you have a microphone at all? Cause it's good to like play with the microphone, like different distances. Like, you can hold the mic really close.
Scott Aukerman
You have a mic in front of you. You don't have to mime it.
Kristen Schaal
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
Kristen is talking into a microphone and then miming a microphone going back and forth. You can just use the one right in front of you.
Kristen Schaal
So, you know, so Nancy, you're just like, you're just like, da, da, da, da. And then you could just take it out here. Like, this is an harsh Barker move that you can just practice with is, you know, you're talking like this. And then Arjbarger, sometimes he'll like drop the mic to his side and he'll yell out the rest. And it's really effective.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Kristen Schaal
And there's also, you could do the Hamilton Barez move, which is kind of like he's not gonna do a trumpet up here.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, she just put the mic. Sort of like Liam Gallagher in Oasis.
Kristen Schaal
Yes.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, kind of. Yeah. A lot of comedians don't do that. The other thing comedians do is they get really close.
Kristen Schaal
They get really close.
Scott Aukerman
They get really close.
Kristen Schaal
They put their hand over the top, you know, and they're just like, yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Pretty good, Nancy.
Kristen Schaal
It's pretty good.
Nancy Cooper
I think I did it Good. You know, if you want to come to Charlie Brown's, I can talk to Mr. Henry for you and you can come up. You can come up and perform there if you want. I could talk to him.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, that sounds like a delight.
Scott Aukerman
You used to live in New York, so not too far.
Kristen Schaal
No. Well, I've never heard of this Charlie Brown's Steakhouse.
Nancy Cooper
It's on Route 9 in Lawrenceville.
Kristen Schaal
Okay. All right.
Scott Aukerman
That tells you everything you need to know.
Kristen Schaal
When are you getting back there? Aren't you here now, though?
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, I'm here now. So then it's gonna take me five days to get back on the bus. You know, someone on the bus said that I looked 53. I'm only 22.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, you smiled when you said that like it was a good thing.
Nancy Cooper
Uh huh. Because the older you look, the cheaper the bus is.
Scott Aukerman
We talked about that last time. I don't think the bus lowers its rate for 53 year olds. I think it's like 65 and above, but you're hoping to get there.
Nancy Cooper
Last time someone said they thought I was 49. How old do you think I am?
Kristen Schaal
22.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, you just said it.
Nancy Cooper
But I look 53.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, you could do that. You could do that and do a joke right there.
Nancy Cooper
Did you ever notice that I look 53? You know what I mean? You know what I mean? You know what I'm talking about. What else, what else, what else? What else?
Scott Aukerman
Not bad. Any critique?
Kristen Schaal
Kristen, I just think she needs to, like, put like a. I don't know, you just need to surprise them a little bit. And it's like, did you ever notice fact? And then you need to, like, put a twist on the end.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, like, what would you do with that kind of. Kind of joke structure? So someone says to you, hey, you look 53, Kristen. And you sit there and you mull.
Kristen Schaal
It over and you, well, my taste, I would probably be like, did you ever notice that I look 53? Well, my pussy will tell you different. And then I would whip out the labias and be like, look at the rings around my labias. And we would like, count them. And everyone in the audience know what I mean? What else? What else? Yeah, especially in Lawrenceville because they're looking for that kind of performance. I'm sure Karen Findlay came there a couple times, covered herself in honey and screamed. So they would be like, aching for it.
Scott Aukerman
I don't know that I'd be expecting that if I'm sitting in the tiny room. Oh, okay, there's your point. There's your point.
Kristen Schaal
That's comedy.
Scott Aukerman
What would Mr. Henry think about that?
Nancy Cooper
Do you think he would probably be like, nancy, you can go ahead up on. Go on stage again if you want.
Scott Aukerman
That's his normal critique of your act. Is that the extent of what Mr. Henry has said to you? How did you get to know Mr. Henry?
Nancy Cooper
Uh huh. Uh huh.
Scott Aukerman
No, how did you get to know Mr. Henry is my question.
Nancy Cooper
Oh, well, they were getting rid of all their old knives and forks and spoons.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Nancy Cooper
At the Charlie Brown Steakhouse, because I guess they're getting new ones.
Scott Aukerman
Right.
Nancy Cooper
And so my grandma said she heard.
Scott Aukerman
About this in the newspaper or on the news or something like this. She was out of the tub at this moment?
Nancy Cooper
No, she was still in the tub.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Nancy Cooper
So she was like, nancy, go down and get them. And so then I went down and I said, hi, can I have. Did you ever notice that I went to Charlie Brown Steakhouse?
Scott Aukerman
You said this to Mr. Henry?
Nancy Cooper
Mm.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. And what did he say back to you?
Nancy Cooper
And he said, are you here to get the knives and forks and spoons? And I said, mm. And then he said, you know, if you ever want a job, you know, and I said, okay, I could do, be a stand up comedian. And then that's how it happened.
Scott Aukerman
Was that the job he was talking about or did he have something else?
Nancy Cooper
Um, I don't know, because they have dishwashers and they have a busser.
Scott Aukerman
Does he pay you to do this?
Nancy Cooper
Mm. Mm.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Nancy Cooper
Mm.
Kristen Schaal
Mm. I wanna know how much silverware you have now.
Nancy Cooper
Um, we have five drawers full of utensils in our kitchen.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, that's a lot of it seems. Do you have a lot of company? It sounds like you can't even get anyone to get grandma out of the tub. Why do you need so much silverware?
Nancy Cooper
No, no, it's to have it. We have 10 jars full of buttons.
Kristen Schaal
If I were in your house, and I. God, I hope I am someday, I would probably take all the buttons and I would glue them to all the knives, and then I would spell out letters or something and make banners around the house. Or you could make like, stars. Snowflake stars. With the buttons and the knives, you know, and hang them up around. Real kitschy.
Nancy Cooper
You should come over to my house. You should come.
Scott Aukerman
How do you think your grandmother would feel about that kind of behavior in her house with all her buttons and all of her silverware?
Nancy Cooper
No, you can't touch, but you know.
Scott Aukerman
She'S in the tub. She can't stop her.
Nancy Cooper
The one thing that you can do is you can go in the basement. Like, the shirt's from the basement.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, that's. I mean. Yeah, that's. I don't quite know what to say about that shirt.
Kristen Schaal
Mm.
Nancy Cooper
It's from the basement.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. It looks like a basement shirt. If I had to describe a basement shirt, I would say that's.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, absolutely. Where was it? In the basement?
Nancy Cooper
There was an old trunk. And then I move that trunk. Did you ever notice there's an old trunk and then you have to move that trunk, and then under the trunk is a bucket.
Scott Aukerman
Wait, it's.
Kristen Schaal
Wait, under the trunk is a bucket. Was it balancing. The trunk was balancing on the bucket.
Nancy Cooper
Mm. The trunk was balancing on the bucket.
Scott Aukerman
And the shirt was inside that bucket.
Nancy Cooper
Mm. The shirt was inside the bucket with a sponge.
Kristen Schaal
What were you doing moving the trunk in the first place, Nancy?
Nancy Cooper
Uh, I. I opened the trunk. Cause. And then it fell.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, it fell off the bucket. So the shirt you're wearing was more used as a rag to clean cars, I'm assuming. Or clean the basement walls.
Nancy Cooper
You can go in the basement. And she doesn't say anything about the basement stuff.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, so. But she's a taskmaster when it comes to everything up on the. How many floors is the house?
Nancy Cooper
Mm, mm. Three.
Scott Aukerman
Three floor house. Wow. Yeah. The wheelchair. Do you wanna talk about the wheelchair? Is that what you're asking? Yeah. What happened there? What?
Kristen Schaal
How do you get to your basement?
Nancy Cooper
I don't need this wheelchair. It's just for fun.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, okay.
Scott Aukerman
So you have no impairment.
Nancy Cooper
It was my grandma's.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. It was your grandma's chair. She no longer needs it because she's in the tub. So you think it's fun. So you're out there. Scoot.
Nancy Cooper
And people, you know, people think that I'm 53 because of it. I think.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, that's why. And you take it on the bus with you.
Nancy Cooper
Uh huh. And you get extra special.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
Extra special stuff.
Scott Aukerman
Like what?
Nancy Cooper
Cause then they stop and then it goes.
Scott Aukerman
That is special.
Nancy Cooper
Uh huh. And then you go on.
Scott Aukerman
So extra special noises. Yeah. Okay. The perks. Hey, the perks. Some free noises.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
Do you ever get recognized? Because I get recognized all the time.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, wow. By who?
Nancy Cooper
Well, this lady Donna. She works at the Wawa. And she was like, hey, aren't you Nancy Cooper? And I was like, uh huh. And then she's like, you live in the Red House? And I was like, yeah. And then she was like, you have the old Buick Skylark in your front yard. And I was like, yeah. And then I was like, hey, did you ever notice how there's an old Buick Skylark in our front yard? And she said, yeah.
Scott Aukerman
She said, yeah, I just told you. Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
And I said, what else? What else? And she said, did you ever want to sell it? Then I'd have to get a new cat house.
Kristen Schaal
Well, that's pretty funny. That's like the. That's a.
Scott Aukerman
Hey, that's not bad.
Kristen Schaal
That's a good joke.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, that's actually him.
Nancy Cooper
That's a joke.
Scott Aukerman
I know you're not trying right now.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, that's when it happens.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, you're just recounting a story and you didn't expect that to be funny at all.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah. Here, I can do it. I'll do it right now. I'll do it right now.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, do it. Translate it into the end.
Nancy Cooper
Okay. Did you ever notice, don't you hate it when there's a Buick Skylark in your front yard? You know What? I mean, you know what I'm talking about. What else? What else? What else? What else?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. I don't know.
Kristen Schaal
And they say. And then someone wants to sell it, someone wants to buy it. And you're like, great, I'll have to get a new cat house. And then you're like, hey, if you want to find me, follow the trail of silverware back to ShopRite.
Scott Aukerman
See, I think you guys could work together.
Kristen Schaal
I would love to train you. I would love to be your master.
Nancy Cooper
Okay. Okay.
Scott Aukerman
I don't know about master, but I mean, you know, maybe she could be your apprentice or.
Kristen Schaal
Apprentice master.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, but I mean, you're kind of implying that she's gonna be your slave.
Kristen Schaal
Well, I think that's where it has to start.
Scott Aukerman
I don't know, Krista. That's not really the tradition of being a kid.
Kristen Schaal
She's faking it in a wheelchair.
Scott Aukerman
Well, how do you see this relationship going then? Do you see Nancy coming out here to LA and hanging out with you?
Kristen Schaal
Oh, my God. Nancy, I would just like to officially invite you to come live with me in my place. Live with me. We'll wake up every morning together. We'll do some exercises.
Scott Aukerman
Sleeping in the same bed or.
Kristen Schaal
No, you can sleep on the couch.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. You're used to it.
Kristen Schaal
Probably really fancy for you.
Scott Aukerman
Well, she's on a couch where she is.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, okay. Okay. And then we'll get up. We'll, you know, and we'll. All we'll do is study comedy all day long, and then we'll go and you can watch me do shows at night. You can't do the shows. You can watch me do the shows.
Scott Aukerman
Is she doing chores during the day as well, or while you study comedy? I mean.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, a little. Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Kristen Schaal
And then can you cook?
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, I like to make. Do you know what Cheez Whiz is?
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
And do you know what Bugles are?
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
And then I like to put Cheez Whiz in the Bugles. And that's how you make that.
Kristen Schaal
That sounds great.
Nancy Cooper
And then I make that all the time. And then you know what else I make? I also make pudding.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, really? From scratch.
Nancy Cooper
It comes in a cup.
Scott Aukerman
Oh. You buy it at the store.
Nancy Cooper
Then you have to rip the top off. Did you ever notice that when you buy pudding, you have to rip the top off?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
And you know what I mean. And you know what I'm talking about. And you know what I mean.
Scott Aukerman
They're right.
Kristen Schaal
What else? What else? What else? You guys, it'd be amazing.
Scott Aukerman
What A perfect.
Kristen Schaal
This is going to be a duo act.
Scott Aukerman
This is like when Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis got together. You know what I mean? Like just two shining stars on their own. But then when they got together, it was magic. Or like heart to heart.
Kristen Schaal
Exactly.
Scott Aukerman
Like, you know what I mean?
Kristen Schaal
Like what that guy said about that Lawrence and Olivier. I mean, it's definitely.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, exactly. Well, yeah, when Mr. And Mrs. Olivier decided to call their baby Lawrence, boom, there was a partnership right there. First name, last name. Guys, we got it.
Nancy Cooper
But I'm gonna have to take the bus back to Lawrenceville.
Scott Aukerman
Why do you. Why go back?
Nancy Cooper
Because I have to perform at the Charlie Brown Steakhouse.
Scott Aukerman
And then those days are done. Those days are done.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
You're with Kristen now. Yeah. You better call Mr. Henry.
Nancy Cooper
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
Call your grandma.
Nancy Cooper
Okay.
Kristen Schaal
I mean, I see an album. Cutting an album with Nancy on Sub Pop in two months.
Scott Aukerman
Two months. Oh, my God. That's kind of weird.
Kristen Schaal

Kristen Schaal
Well, I guess you call the shots.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, I decide when we come back, when we're done, you know, I mean, it's pretty much after the commercial.
Kristen Schaal
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. So welcome back.
Kristen Schaal
Thank you.
Scott Aukerman
Thanks for being on the show.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, my God, thanks for having me.
Scott Aukerman
It's a new year. A lot of exciting things happening to you. Tell us a little bit about Bob's Burgers.
Kristen Schaal
Bob's Burgers is a show on Fox. It's an animated show.
Scott Aukerman
Cool, thanks. Anyway, so we also have Nancy Cooper here and she's a stand up comedian. And we have a new guest, first time on the show. And I don't really know that much information about you. You're a teenager.
Rick Faber
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
And Rick Faber is here. Hello, Rick.
Rick Faber
Hey, what's up?
Scott Aukerman
Hey, how are you? Thanks for coming to the show. Coming on the show. Coming to the show.
Rick Faber
Yeah, whatever. I'm actually, I'm terrible because life sucks.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, I'm sorry.
Rick Faber
I mean, it doesn't suck for me, it just sucks.
Scott Aukerman
Meaning that there's so many.
Rick Faber
I mean, it sucks for adults who have to deal with our teenage. Me and my teenage buddies who have to deal with our irresponsible behavior.
Scott Aukerman
Wait, it sucks for adults who have to deal with you and your buddy's irresponsible behavior.
Rick Faber
I feel so bad for all these adults who have to deal with us teenagers.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay. Hmm.
Rick Faber
Like the other day we were at CityWalk watching Django Unchained and there were these adults and they clearly just wanted to enjoy the movie. And me and my friends, we were sitting there talking and texting and laughing and we just ruined their whole experience. And I feel awful about that.
Scott Aukerman
So sorry. So sorry to hear that. That's. That's terrible. Well, welcome to the show. It's great to have you. You seem sullen, you seem a little upset, but it's all because you feel bad for parents, I guess. Kristen, what do you think about this? A teenage boy on the show all of a sudden.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, I'm terrified. Yeah, he's scared of teenagers. He's kinda.
Rick Faber
I don't blame you.
Scott Aukerman
You're wearing.
Rick Faber
We've earned this reputation.
Nancy Cooper
Ugh.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Describe your clothes because they're outlandish to me. An adult.
Rick Faber
Well, I've got baggy purple shorts on and skate shoes.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, boy. Those are unlike shoes that I wear in my normal life. They seem to be apropos for skating or something.
Rick Faber
And a Metallica T shirt that has a knife coming out of a toilet.
Scott Aukerman
Ugh. God. Two things that I cannot stand. Violence and potty humor.
Rick Faber
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
Did you get them from the basement?
Rick Faber
No, my mom bought them for me and I wasn't even grateful.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, man.
Rick Faber
I'm the worst. All of us teenagers are. And we feel terrible about it.
Kristen Schaal
Why do you keep doing it?
Rick Faber
Because we aren't. Our brains aren't developed enough yet.
Scott Aukerman
I see. It's. It's. It's youth. It's just a part of youth.
Rick Faber
We saw this guy the other day, me and my buddies. This guy who's probably about early 30s, blonde hair, looked like a totally normal cool guy. Very cool, I'd probably even say. And he was. He saw his friends across the street, so he started skipping across the crosswalk. He wasn't doing it genuinely. He was doing it to get a laugh.
Scott Aukerman
He was doing it to make his.
Rick Faber
Friends laugh, to make his buddies laugh. But we still poked our heads out of the car and yelled at him and made fun of him and called him a little prissy. What were we even thinking? He was clearly a cool guy trying to just make his friends laugh. It's like we don't even get irony.
Scott Aukerman
Boy. Yeah, that's rough. It's a rough life to be that self aware.
Rick Faber
It's the worst. We teenagers are aware that we are the worst.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Rick Faber
And we feel awful about it.
Scott Aukerman
Do you really? I've never. To be quite frank, I've never met a teenager who's felt awful about the way they.
Rick Faber
No. We realized recently we should feel awful. So now we all do.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, wow.
Kristen Schaal
That. You're not gonna change.
Rick Faber
Ugh, probably not. Would that I could, but I can't.
Scott Aukerman
Why not? Why can't you change? Anyone can change.
Rick Faber
Because we. It's a herd mentality. Me and my friends get together and we just. We can't. We. It's like we can't even think for ourselves. It's like we don't have a brain of our own. We just kinda do what we think makes us look cool, even though we know it's lame to do.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Do you look cool? Do you think?
Rick Faber
No, obviously not.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. I mean, look at your. Your outfit. I mean, how are you supposed to really, you know, be a productive member of society wearing that?
Rick Faber
I know. Do you think I could go into a job interview looking like this?
Scott Aukerman
No way. And yet you do it anyway. Have you ever gone into a job interview looking like that?
Rick Faber
Yeah. And I got the job, but it was at a skate shop.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay. What did. How long have you worked there?
Rick Faber
I've worked there about eight months.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. You like the job?
Rick Faber
Yeah, it's pretty good.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Are you a good employee?
Rick Faber
Well, yeah. Kids come in, they want to learn how to ollie. I teach them or I give them the. You know, I sell them a book, how to ollie.
Kristen Schaal
There's a whole book on just how to ollie.
Rick Faber
Just how to ollie? Yeah, it's a series.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, it's a series. It's like the Harry Potter series.
Rick Faber
I mean, in that. It's a series of books. Yes.
Kristen Schaal
What's so complicated about ollie?
Rick Faber
Weight, balance. Balancing your weight.
Scott Aukerman
And then do you skate yourself?
Rick Faber
Oh, yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Rick Faber
Kick flips. Ollies.
Kristen Schaal
What's the difference between a kickflip and an ollie?
Rick Faber
Kickflip. You flip the board around as you're going up. Ollie just you're hopping up. You're hopping a curb.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, you're just. An ollie is a curb hop, basically.
Rick Faber
I mean, you don't have to do it over a curb. You could do it over a ditch. An obstacle in your way as you're going down the side. A frog.
Scott Aukerman
Maybe a little frog.
Rick Faber
There was a frog in the sidewalk. Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
You probably wouldn't want to hit the frog.
Rick Faber
You know what? I probably wouldn't care. And I probably would hit the frog because I don't even have any respect for anything but myself.
Scott Aukerman
Not even nature?
Rick Faber
No. Or nurture.
Kristen Schaal
Do you have a girlfriend or a boyfriend?
Rick Faber
No. And if I knew someone who was gay, I'd probably make fun of him for that. That's how short minded I am.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, my goodness.
Rick Faber
That's a term.
Scott Aukerman
That's a term. Yeah. I've heard of narrow minded, but short minded?
Rick Faber
I don't. Yeah. Maybe if I paid more attention in school. The school that my parents pay so much for me to go to.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, you got a private school.
Rick Faber
Mm.
Scott Aukerman
Wow. And you don't even pay attention. They're spending all that money.
Rick Faber
No. Yeah. They send me to Besant Hill School in Ojai. And they're paying a ton of money and I don't even pay attention.
Scott Aukerman
Wow. I know someone whose uncle works there or worked there.
Rick Faber
Yeah. Worked there.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. So. Wow.
Rick Faber
You wanna know something else terrible I did?
Scott Aukerman
Sure. Why hit us?
Rick Faber
Okay. We were at Moonlight Roller Rink the other day.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. In Glendale.
Rick Faber
In Glendale.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Rick Faber
And we had on. And we were roller skating around and we saw this guy there also. Blonde hair, early 30s.
Scott Aukerman
Same guy or. No.
Rick Faber
I mean, I never thought about it. It possibly could have been.
Scott Aukerman
Wow. He may be wandering around wondering why he's being tormented by this could be, I don't know, specific group of teenagers.
Kristen Schaal
What's amazing is that you can peg him for early 30s because when I was a teenager, everyone was just old.
Rick Faber
No, he definitely looks like he's 32. Verging on 33.
Scott Aukerman
32 or 33. And he has blonde hair.
Rick Faber
Blonde hair. I mean, if I were to guess a name. Noel Clamp. Bull. Okay, I don't know.
Scott Aukerman
I don't know anyone by the name of Noel Clampbowl. But I know people who have names like that.
Rick Faber
Yeah. That first name, that last name, both very common. So we saw this guy and he had brought rollerblades to the rink instead of renting the roller skates. Like we.
Scott Aukerman
Sure. So his own. His own pair.
Rick Faber
His own pair of rollerblades. No one else there had rollerblades. Everyone else had roller skates. So obviously he's cool. He thinks for himself. He's doing a really like cool thing by wearing roller blades at the roller blades.
Scott Aukerman
He's an experienced skater.
Rick Faber
Yeah. And he's independent minded.
Scott Aukerman
Sure.
Rick Faber
He doesn't have to follow the crowd like us lame teenagers do. He just can do his own thing. Yet we still made fun of him. And we started making fun of him and we go, hey, nice rollerblades. Yeah. Weirdo.
Scott Aukerman
Whoa.
Rick Faber
Yeah. Yeah. You f O T W. And he was like, huh? And then we were like freak of the week. And he was like, oh man. And so. But then get this. He had the perfect comeback that really put us in our place.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay, good.
Rick Faber
So you're like, nice rollerblade. And he was like, well, actually, rollerblade is a brand name. These are technically inline skates. And the brand is K2. I mean, perfect, right? Totally nailed us.
Scott Aukerman
That guy. Wow.
Rick Faber
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
To have the presence of mind to come back like that.
Rick Faber
Yeah.
Kristen Schaal
Is back on top.
Rick Faber
No, but we didn't even. We didn't even give him his due for that awesome comeback.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, you didn't?
Rick Faber
Yeah, whatever, loser. Fot. We were the worst. God, I can't believe we made fun of that super cool guy who was wearing rollerblades and may have also been the guy who was skipping across the street at one point and I think was also at Django Unchained at City Walk when we were talking.
Scott Aukerman
Oh man. Ugh.
Rick Faber
That poor awesome man. We're the worst.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Well, yeah.
Kristen Schaal
Guess if you see him again.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. What would you do if you saw the guy again?
Rick Faber
Probably ask for his autograph. And, you know, people who were teenagers roughly 13 to 17 years ago had it way harder than we do.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Rick Faber
Ugh.
Kristen Schaal
Are you sure? Because I'm wondering if that's true. Cause, you know, you got your bullying at school, and then we used to come home and we were free of it. Like, maybe our brother was a dick or whatever.
Scott Aukerman
Bowling at school? Is that what you said?
Kristen Schaal
Bullying.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, bullying.
Kristen Schaal
Okay, Sorry.
Scott Aukerman
Cause I took a bowling class when I was in school. I was wondering why you. Why you would bring this up.
Kristen Schaal
Bullying.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Kristen Schaal
But then we'd go home and we'd be pretty much free of it. But now you go home and you got cyber bullying.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, and cyber bullying.
Kristen Schaal
That's the other thing, is that.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, yeah. On the Wii.
Nancy Cooper
On the Wii.
Kristen Schaal
On the Wii, man. So anyway, so it's just like, you know, it's now. Now there's no escape. And then you have your nightmares.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, everyone has nightmares. Yeah, I think. I think everyone since the cavemen had nightmares.
Kristen Schaal
I think night is about sleeping, is about having nightmares. As far as I. Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
What do you think cavemen nightmares were? Were they like, oh, no, I'm not naked in front of everyone. Anyway, we'll be right back. No, no, no, no. We're not going to break on that.
Rick Faber
Oh, I'm so dumb. I thought we really were.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, me too. Cause you're calling random shots over here. You know, you're throwing in new podcasts.
Scott Aukerman
We will be right back. Tell you what, let's take one more break. When we come back, we'll be right back with Nancy Cooper. Right back with Rick Faber and Kristen Schaal. Comedy Bang Bang. After this. Welcome back to Listen to your heart. I'm Jerry. And I'm Jerry's Heart. Today's topic, Repatha evolocimab heart. Why'd you pick this one? Well, Jerry, for people who have had a heart attack like us, diet and exercise might not be enough to lower the risk of another one. Okay. To help know if we're at risk, we should be getting our ldlc, our bad cholesterol checked, and talking to our doctor. I'm listening. And if it's still too high, Repatha can be added to a statin to lower our LDL C and our heart attack risk.
Nancy Cooper
Hmm.
Scott Aukerman
Guess it's time to ask about Repatha.

Thank you so much for that. I really needed to hear that.
Scott Aukerman
In 2013, you're starting your own stand up show in Los Angeles, correct?
Kristen Schaal
Oh, yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Monday night.
Kristen Schaal
Correct. At the Virgil. Monday nights at 8. Kurt Brownholder and myself will be doing Hot tub.
Scott Aukerman
This is January 10th, of course. But when does that start?
Kristen Schaal
Well, it started.
Scott Aukerman
It started already.
Kristen Schaal
What starts on the 7th? Yeah, January 7th.
Scott Aukerman
So it started on Monday. And how much money does it cost to get into this show? I'm gonna decide when you tell me.
Kristen Schaal
19. $5 online and $7 at the door.
Scott Aukerman
What do you think of that, Rick?
Rick Faber
I don't even budget like my dad tried to teach me how to do. So if I had it in my pocket, I would just spend it. I'd go to that show and just.
Kristen Schaal
Spend $5 without even thinking it in. So it's 21 and over.
Rick Faber
Instead of bar, I'd probably use a fake id.
Scott Aukerman
Come on.
Rick Faber
Not thinking about how that could get the bar owners in trouble.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Not thinking about who died to get that fake ID in New York, Right.
Rick Faber
Probably it's someone in Afghanistan again.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Oh my gosh.
Nancy Cooper
I could go because I'm 22.
Kristen Schaal
Well, you are going because you're living with Me and you go everywhere I go now.
Nancy Cooper
Okay. And then I'm gonna go up, and I'm gonna get. I'm gonna go up.
Kristen Schaal
No, you're not going up.
Nancy Cooper
Okay.
Kristen Schaal
Because you're not ready.
Nancy Cooper
Rick, how do you think I look?
Rick Faber
How do I think you look?
Scott Aukerman
Well, she's old. She's an adult, so that could be right.
Rick Faber
She just said she's 22.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Yeah, she did.
Rick Faber
But being a rude teenager, rather than saying a younger age, I'm gonna say 62.
Scott Aukerman
Three away.
Rick Faber
I'm so terrible.
Nancy Cooper
That's good.
Scott Aukerman
Huh?
Nancy Cooper
Huh. So now somebody said. Somebody said I look 62. I'm only 22.
Scott Aukerman
Wow, you're getting up there pretty soon. What's the difference in bus fare?
Nancy Cooper
Mm, I don't know. I think it goes like a quarter for 10 years or something. I think it's a quarter for every 10 years.
Scott Aukerman
Quarter for every 10 years old you are.
Nancy Cooper
I don't know.
Scott Aukerman
What a weird bus out there in Lawrenceville. They take a look at your ID and then for every 10 years you are old, they ask for a quarter.
Nancy Cooper
You have to do a quarter. You have to do a quarter, and then that's 25 pennies.
Scott Aukerman
So right now it seems to me like your bus fare is 50 cents. And if you got up to 65, it would be somewhere around $1.50. So I'm not sure why you're so intent on looking older.
Nancy Cooper
No, it goes the other way. I think it's like a quarter for each. Less than 100, you are.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. A quarter for.
Kristen Schaal
For each. Less than a hundred.
Scott Aukerman
A quarter for each decade. Under 100, you are. Okay, I get it. I get it. I get it. So right now, at 22, you are a $2 fare.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, okay, got it. At 62, she would be a.
Scott Aukerman
A $4 fare. No, a $1 fare.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, I think that's right.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, great.
Nancy Cooper
I didn't even have to go to college.
Kristen Schaal
I tell you what, Nancy, it doesn't matter, because when I'm done with you in the training program, I'm enlisting you with the intense 24 hour live in training program, you're gonna be the number one comic in the United States. You're gonna have people driving your ass around. You know what I'm saying? You're gonna be better, bigger, better and more popular than Chris Rock. Yeah.
Rick Faber
You know what you could do if you don't like paying the fare? This is what I do. I just sketch. I get on my board, you grab the bumper of the.
Scott Aukerman
Come on. That's so dangerous.
Rick Faber
And I don't even wear a helmet.
Scott Aukerman
What? I know.
Rick Faber
Even though my mom made me promise I would and I lied to her.
Scott Aukerman
What would happen if you died? How would your mom feel?
Rick Faber
Terrible. And it's like I didn't even consider that. But you have a wheelchair, so you could do the same thing. You could just sketch on the back of the bus. Just grab on and just let it pull you through traffic.
Nancy Cooper
Yeah, then I wouldn't even have to pay.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
And then I don't have to wear a helmet in my wheelchair.
Scott Aukerman
Why?
Nancy Cooper
Nobody does.
Kristen Schaal
Nobody does.
Scott Aukerman
I guess not.
Nancy Cooper
I don't have to wear one.
Scott Aukerman
There should be some laws about wearing a helmet in a wheelchair, you know.
Kristen Schaal
Well, if you're skitching, yes.
Scott Aukerman
If you're skitching, definitely. But I just think it's.
Kristen Schaal
If you do life, I don't think.
Scott Aukerman
I think you should.
Kristen Schaal
Wow.
Rick Faber
And even if I had a helmet, my mom bought me a nice helmet. You know what I did? I covered it with stickers from all the punk bands I like.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, come on, Rick. Yeah, come on, man.
Rick Faber
A nice pristine helmet. And it's now covered with all my punk stickers.
Scott Aukerman
Was it a pretty color? Yeah, what color?
Rick Faber
Ever heard of blue?
Kristen Schaal
Okay, watch it with the attitude.
Rick Faber
Sorry. I'm sorry. Gosh, just so full of it all the time.
Scott Aukerman
Full of contempt.
Kristen Schaal
There's a lot of hormones coursing through your body that you're not. You're not sure what to do with.
Rick Faber
Yeah, but that's not even a good excuse. I should still know better.
Scott Aukerman
Hey, you don't have a girlfriend or a boyfriend, you say no, no, no. And Nancy, you're. You're unattached, right?
Nancy Cooper
Mm, yeah. I don't know if I'm gonna get married though. Cause I'm so busy with my career.
Scott Aukerman
Oh yeah.
Rick Faber
Look, you probably are beautiful on the inside, but I wouldn't date someone with a disability. Cause then all my friends would make fun of me. That's shallow.
Scott Aukerman
It is shallow.
Rick Faber
I'm shallow.
Scott Aukerman
Would your friends make fun of you, of someone who doesn't have a disability, who rides a wheelchair for fun?
Rick Faber
Would they?
Scott Aukerman
Huh? Nevermind. Alright guys, it's time to play a little game here on the show. It's time to play a little something called Would you ra. Oh yep, yep, yep, yep. It's time to play Would you rather. And we all know how this is played. People send me would you rather. Scenarios to our Twitter, which is the. That's cbb. W Y R A K A comedy Bang bang. Would you rather send them over to me over there? And I sift through them, I find the good ones, and I will read out the scenario out loud. I'll then open the floor for questions. You're free to ask me any question about either of the two scenarios that you like in order to help narrow down your choice. There's a lot of specifics in there that I know about that aren't included in the actual question. Once we're done asking questions, I'll close the floor. Kristen will stop yawning.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, God.
Scott Aukerman
And then that was.
Kristen Schaal
No, I had to. I did not yawn.
Scott Aukerman
What's this now? You weren't yawning.
Kristen Schaal
I was stretched out my face muscles so that I could. Because I noticed I wasn't articulating bullying very well. Okay, so you did exercise warming up my mouth.
Scott Aukerman
Sure. Okay. How do you feel now?
Kristen Schaal
Really good.
Scott Aukerman
Really good.
Nancy Cooper
Sometimes you can move the microphone far away, and then sometimes you can have the microphone closer.
Kristen Schaal
That's really good, Nancy.
Scott Aukerman
You're a quick study, Nancy. Wow. It only took you about a half hour to. So then I'll close the floor for questions. You'll all vote, and then I'll tally up the points and we'll decide a winner. Okay. And it's that simple. So our first and only scenario comes to us from Tutsays Tootsays. T U T S A or Tut says probably he or she asks, would you rather fart the number of hours like a grandfather clock chimes on the hour?
Kristen Schaal
A cuckoo clock?
Scott Aukerman
Sure. Well, I guess a cuckoo comes out and says cuckoo for as many hours as there are. Okay. Or have a mustache that is a homosexual. All right. Would you rather fart the number of hours like a grandfather clock chimes on the hour, or have a mustache that is a homosexual? I'm opening the floor for questions.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, I got so many.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, here we go.
Kristen Schaal
Well, I mean, how is the mustache a homosexual?
Scott Aukerman
It is a homosexual mustache.
Kristen Schaal
What does that entail?
Scott Aukerman
So you are a woman by all accounts.
Kristen Schaal
Sure.
Scott Aukerman
And by the evidence in front of me.
Kristen Schaal
Thank you.
Scott Aukerman
You're a girlish figure.
Kristen Schaal
Thanks for seeing it.
Scott Aukerman
So you would have a mustache that is attracted to women. Oh, does that make sense?
Kristen Schaal
But it seems like it'd be easier to get women with that mustache that loved women so much.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. But you yourself, in your real as Kristen Schaal, you are not homosexual.
Kristen Schaal
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
But your mustache is and is attracted to women.
Kristen Schaal
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
And the most attractive thing is a woman's mustache goes crazy for that. So you have a Mustache that is constantly pulling you in all sorts of directions that you maybe perhaps don't want.
Kristen Schaal
To be in the. Can you shave it off at all?
Scott Aukerman
You can't shave it off, but it grows back within one hour. A little heavier.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, yeah, okay.
Scott Aukerman
And a little bit more gay, if that's possible. Yeah, exactly.
Rick Faber
Can I ask a question?
Scott Aukerman
Sure, Rick, of course. Yeah. You're so polite. Thank you so much for asking.
Rick Faber
I'm trying to remember the lessons my parents imparted on me.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Rick Faber
Is the. Are the farts always a certain volume? Like, might they sometimes be silent yet dead?
Scott Aukerman
They are quite loud. They're. They're about as loud as Big Ben. Have you ever been to England?
Rick Faber
No, and I'd probably just make fun of everyone's accent if I had.
Scott Aukerman
Well, they're really, really loud. People can hear them all throughout the town.
Rick Faber
Oh, wow.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Rick Faber
That's more loud than in a normal fart.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, of course. Yeah.
Kristen Schaal
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
You don't fart that loudly in your real life.
Rick Faber
You mean I don't fart.
Scott Aukerman
You don't fart?
Rick Faber
No way, man. What are you talking about?
Scott Aukerman
Come on, Rick.
Rick Faber
Come on, man. My friends are gonna listen to this.
Scott Aukerman
Come on, Rick.
Rick Faber
Come on, man.
Scott Aukerman
You. You do. Everyone farts.
Rick Faber
No way. Come on, Rick.
Scott Aukerman
Come on, man.
Rick Faber
No, Come on, Rick.
Scott Aukerman
Come on.
Rick Faber
Yeah, maybe once.
Scott Aukerman
Rick.
Rick Faber
It was an accident, Rick. Someone else asked a question. Jeez.
Scott Aukerman
All right.
Nancy Cooper
Yes, Nancy. And it rings like a cuckoo. Cuckoo clock. And then does it go 1 when it's 1, 2 when it's 2, 3 when it's 3, 4 when it's 4, 5 when it's 5, 6 when it's 6, 7 when it's 7, 8 when it's 8, 9 when it's 9, 10 when it's 10, 11 when it's 11, 12 when it's 12.
Scott Aukerman
Meaning the English words or the number of times.
Nancy Cooper
Number of times.
Scott Aukerman
Yes.
Nancy Cooper
It goes on two times. 1, 2, 1, 2, 3 times.
Scott Aukerman
Keep going.
Nancy Cooper
And then it goes 1, 2, 4 times. And then it goes 1, two, five times. And then it goes 1st, 2, 6 times. I didn't even have to go to college.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, but yeah, in other words. Yes, really, really loudly. It will fart the number of times that the hour is. And it's military time. That's the other thing. So it goes all the way up to 12 and then it goes 13, 14, 15. Yeah, all the way up to 24.
Kristen Schaal
I'm going with the homosexual.
Rick Faber
Oh, classic.
Scott Aukerman
Would you rather blunder for 2013 voting early? Oh, my gosh.
Kristen Schaal
Wait, what? What? What?
Scott Aukerman
Christian Schaal getting points taken off the board. Boy, that is a classic. You'd never vote early. I've not closed the floor. I've not asked you what your vote is. That is the first. Would you rather. Blunder of 2013 if you're paying attention. And so that means you have negative 22013 points. Not a good start, I have to say. Not a good start. Not a competitive start, certainly. But I've seen people come back from bigger deficits.
Rick Faber
If your mustache is gay, can you still be straight?
Scott Aukerman
Sure. Of course.
Rick Faber
It's just your mustache. Is it like a magnet? If it sees a gay guy, it pulls you toward him?
Scott Aukerman
Yes, of course. Because he wants to give the person a mustache ride.
Rick Faber
I. Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Does that help narrow down your choice?
Rick Faber
I just. Sometimes I'm boarding and I don't want the worst thing when you're boarding.
Scott Aukerman
An airplane.
Rick Faber
No, a skateboarder.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Rick Faber
The number one rule. We have a book about this at the shop. Number one rule when you're a skateboarder, don't carry a magnet. When you go by metal, it'll suddenly pull you in that direction, like a.
Scott Aukerman
Mailbox or something like that.
Rick Faber
So as a skateboarder, you really don't want anything magnetized on you as you're skating.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Yeah, I can imagine that. Yeah. Yeah. Huh. That's a good rule. Yeah. How many books in the series are about that?
Rick Faber
Well, only one, but it's. It's 10, 16 pages.
Scott Aukerman
Wow.
Rick Faber
140 of which are footnotes.
Scott Aukerman
Really? Yeah. Heavily researched book.
Rick Faber
Yeah. Yeah. David Foster Wallace wrote it.
Scott Aukerman
Interesting. Okay, Nancy, any questions here? You can still ask questions. By the way, Kristen, even though you voted early, how are you ever going to get back the points if you don't ask questions?
Kristen Schaal
Okay. When you're farting all those times, up.
Scott Aukerman
To 24 times, does it feel good?
Kristen Schaal
Like a nice release?
Scott Aukerman
It does feel good. Yeah. Just like a regular fart. Feels really good.
Kristen Schaal
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. And by the way, you do it on the half hour, too, but that's just a one single fart.
Kristen Schaal
So you're just farting all the time?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, pretty much, yeah. Every half hour you fart at least once.
Kristen Schaal
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
Up to from one to 24 times.
Kristen Schaal
You'Re farting and it's audible, like.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, quite audible. Everyone in the city that you live in can hear it.
Nancy Cooper
And in my case, it would be Al Lawrenceville.
Rick Faber
Can you buy a recording of it on audible.com?
Scott Aukerman
I imagine, yeah, of course. They have everything there. I mean, they have Books from authors like friend of the show, Patton Oswald with his book Zombie Spaceship Wasteland. You know, I don't know. Well, we're gonna try to get into a little more integrated marketing. By the way, as the show does.
Rick Faber
These extra episodes, I hope you manage it seamlessly.
Scott Aukerman
I hope so. By the way, Nancy, it's not Lawrenceville anymore. You're gonna be here in la.
Nancy Cooper
Okay. I do have to go back, though, every once a week to do once a week.
Scott Aukerman
It takes five days to get back there and then. Five days. You can't do it once a week.
Nancy Cooper
Mm. Okay.
Kristen Schaal
No, you can't.
Scott Aukerman
No, you can't. Yeah. So we're saying you can't.
Nancy Cooper
Okay. Mm. I'll do that.
Scott Aukerman
So you're not gonna go back then?
Nancy Cooper
Mm, I'm gonna go every once a week.
Scott Aukerman
No, no, no. We're saying you can't go once a week.
Nancy Cooper
Mm. Would a mustache make me look older?
Scott Aukerman
I imagine. Yeah, on men, it makes them look older.
Nancy Cooper
So how old do you think I look?
Scott Aukerman
Well, I mean, you're 22. We've talked about this four times. This is the fourth time we've talked about this one. Sorry, sorry. But, you know, you're not gonna have to worry about bus fare anymore because Kristen's gonna be driving you everywhere.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Do you have a wheelchair rack?
Kristen Schaal
You are my meal ticket. No, we can just put it in my back seat.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, great.
Kristen Schaal
It folds up, right?
Nancy Cooper
Uh huh. Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, good. You have a large back seat. Then I would imagine you're not driving a sports car.
Kristen Schaal
No, I'm not.
Scott Aukerman
You're not in a Beretta?
Kristen Schaal
No.
Scott Aukerman
All right. That's what I have from all the podcasts.
Nancy Cooper
I have a Buick Skylark. It's on my front lawn, right?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, your cat house.
Nancy Cooper
I guess I'll never see it again.
Scott Aukerman
No, you won't. Your cats, too. Your new cat? Gone.
Kristen Schaal
Your grandma?
Scott Aukerman
Grandma's gone.
Kristen Schaal
More of a wrinkled prune.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Say goodbye to your old life as you know it. Because when you're famous, you're not gonna have time to deal with that. You know what I mean?
Kristen Schaal
You're not gonna have time to talk to your old life, and you're not gonna want to.
Scott Aukerman
That's the great part about being famous, right? Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
Who's gonna count all those pennies?
Scott Aukerman
You don't have to anymore. You're gonna be rich.
Nancy Cooper
Well, what about all the clothes I can get out of the basement?
Kristen Schaal
I'm Eileen's basement baby.
Scott Aukerman
Take you to Saks Fifth Avenue?
Kristen Schaal
Mm.
Scott Aukerman
Mm.
Nancy Cooper
A store.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
People Wear clothes from stores.
Nancy Cooper
I only shop at Wawa.
Scott Aukerman
Wawa?
Nancy Cooper
Yeah. Do you know the Wawa? They sold pretzels, two for one.
Scott Aukerman
I don't know what Wawa is. No, I've never heard of that.
Nancy Cooper
It's a store. It's like a store.
Scott Aukerman
All right, any other questions here to help you narrow down any of your scenarios?
Rick Faber
Do you live in a community that's accepting of the farting or do people respond to it like when you really hear a fart?
Scott Aukerman
They respond to it like when you hear a fart.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, it's like a normal society every.
Scott Aukerman
Single time, by the way. They don't get used to, like big Ben. They really let you have it. Yeah. Okay, good question. Any others? No. All right, I'm going to close the floor for questions. Here we go. And it's closed. No more questions, guys. So sorry, but we are going to vote. Why don't we go to Kristen here? Kristen, who really is in a deficit here and needs to be the comeback kid here with her vote. How do you like to vote? At one point you blurted out how you wanted to vote.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Have you changed your mind since then?
Kristen Schaal
No.
Scott Aukerman
No. You're still. Go ahead.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah. I want to get. I want to do a three way with my mustache and my lover.
Scott Aukerman
Your mustache and your lover? Okay. And why is that?
Kristen Schaal
Why isn't that true? I thought we weren't having questions anymore.
Scott Aukerman
That's a good point. Okay. All right. We'll see how you fared on your vote. How many points you got soon. Nancy, how do you like to vote?
Nancy Cooper
I want to do the farting.
Scott Aukerman
You do want to do the farting? Is that what you said? Okay. And why is that?
Nancy Cooper
Because that's less times than I fart now, I think. Because if you add them all up throughout the whole hour and then I don't know how many times I fart in my sleep and then that's a lot. And then I'll always know what time it is.
Scott Aukerman
Uh huh. And you're doing these in your sleep. Let's add them up. How many farts is this? This is 24 plus 23 plus 22 plus 21 plus 20, plus 19, plus 18. Then of course comes 17 and then.
Nancy Cooper
16 and then 15.
Scott Aukerman
Sure.
Nancy Cooper
And then 14 and then 13 and 12 and then 12 and then 11, then 10, then 9.
Kristen Schaal
Okay. Okay.
Nancy Cooper
I didn't even have to go to college. I didn't even have to go.
Scott Aukerman
All right, so you're looking at plus you're doing them on the half hours plus 24. You're looking at over 300 farts a day.
Nancy Cooper
Mm.
Scott Aukerman
And you're fine with that?
Nancy Cooper
Mm.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. And they're super loud. They're the loudest thing. They're louder than fireworks.
Nancy Cooper
Mm.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, great.
Kristen Schaal
You probably wouldn't have to poop.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, no. You poop. And that's.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, really?
Scott Aukerman
Oh, yeah, yeah. No, you poop on the quarter hours.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, fuck.
Scott Aukerman
Massive poops that take 15 minutes.
Kristen Schaal
Oh, my God.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, sorry. You voted that way. Yeah. Yeah. You're voting or you're pooping 48 times a day for 15 minutes at a time. All right, Rick, how do you like to vote?
Rick Faber
Well, I mean, as a skater, I would never get up skating. Obviously, my motto is skate or die.
Scott Aukerman
Sure. Yeah, obviously.
Rick Faber
And number one rule of skating. Can't be carrying anything magnetized. So I guess I'll go with farts. Maybe they'll even help with propulsion.
Nancy Cooper
Great.
Scott Aukerman
All right. Well, some interesting votes there. Let's see. So, Kristen, you voted for the mustache.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
And then Rick and Nancy, you both voted for the farting. And Rick and Nancy, you both had. You asked great questions. So, Rick, you had three points that you accrued during the actual questioning. Nancy, you had one really great question, so you had seven points. Nancy and Rick, you both voted incorrectly. However, Kristen.
Kristen Schaal
Yes.
Scott Aukerman
You voted correctly in that you had a total of 2,019 points, which puts you up at 6 points. Unfortunately, that. That lets you beat Rick. But, Nancy, you're ahead with seven points. Nancy, you're our winner.
Nancy Cooper
Did you ever notice that I just won everything?
Scott Aukerman
Wow. That's like.
Nancy Cooper
Wow. Do you know what I mean? Do you know what I mean?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. That's like spiking the ball when you're in the end zone. I'm afraid I'm gonna have to dock you a point. Two points for excessive taunting. Sorry. So, Kristen.
Kristen Schaal
Yes.
Scott Aukerman
You're now our winner because Nancy is only at five, so you're at six points. So, Kristen, you're the winner. Congratulations.
Kristen Schaal
Thank you very much. I don't want to do anything to upset this.
Scott Aukerman
Win a gracious winner. See, Nancy, there's a lesson you could learn.
Nancy Cooper
I didn't know I didn't win anything before ever. That was the first thing I was gonna ever win.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, really? I'm sorry.
Rick Faber
Now I know how Beck felt because.
Scott Aukerman
He was a loser. Yeah. Although when he wrote that song, it actually was a huge hit, so he probably felt really good.
Rick Faber
Soy un perledor.
Scott Aukerman
Right. And that is, of course, how we play. Would you'd ra. All right, guys. Boy, we have done it. There's only one thing left to do here on the show, and that is a little something that we call plugs. Ugly. What?
Kristen Schaal
Oh, ugly doll. I'm wearing an ugly doll.
Nancy Cooper
Watch.
Scott Aukerman
You can't whisper right into the mic.
Kristen Schaal
Nancy was asking about.
Rick Faber
Let's listen to the plugging in the day.
Scott Aukerman
My wife. Oh, that was slow. Jam the Plugs by Nisage, I believe is how you would pronounce that. K, N, E, I, S, A, G, E. Thanks so much for that, Nisage. And if you have a plugs theme that you would like to have heard on the show, go head over to earwolf.com, find the comedy message boards. Comedy bang bang message boards, I should say. I mean, I guess they're all comedy message boards. We put out comedy comedy podcast at Earwolf and find the comedy bang bang message boards posted in the appropriate thread. And thank you so much, Nisage. And guys, let's open up the old plug bag. What do you got to plug? First of all, Kristen, I had you on the show because I thought your special was coming up this morning.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, it's not.
Scott Aukerman
Sorry about that. And you don't want it to come out?
Kristen Schaal
No, I don't.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. But Bob's Burgers. Every Sunday. This Sunday?
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, yeah, Bob's burger.
Scott Aukerman
Anything else? Movies?
Kristen Schaal
No, I got nothing.
Scott Aukerman
Nothing.
Kristen Schaal
I got Gravity Falls.
Scott Aukerman
What is that?
Kristen Schaal
It's another show for kids.
Scott Aukerman
For kids. Oh, okay. A kid's show, Rick. You ever see that? No. Why do you say it like that?
Rick Faber
I don't watch kid stuff.
Scott Aukerman
Is it because you're afraid that we're infantilizing you by implying that we.
Rick Faber
I mean, just wouldn't even occur to me. I try to watch, like, adult stuff.
Scott Aukerman
Why is that?
Rick Faber
I guess it's just my taste is what I am drawn to.
Scott Aukerman
Rick.
Rick Faber
What?
Scott Aukerman
Rick, come on, man.
Rick Faber
My friends are gonna listen to those.
Scott Aukerman
All right, I'm sorry. Okay. Rick, do you have anything that you'd like to plug?
Rick Faber
Yeah, come on down to the skate shop.
Scott Aukerman
Where is that located?
Rick Faber
It's on Manchester Boulevard.
Scott Aukerman
Manchester Boulevard?
Rick Faber
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Where?
Rick Faber
In Ojai.
Scott Aukerman
In Ojai?
Rick Faber
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
What's it called?
Rick Faber
Skaterama.
Scott Aukerman
Do you work. Do you really work at a skate shop?
Rick Faber
Come on.
Scott Aukerman
You don't work at a skate shop, do you?
Rick Faber
You know, I. I just. I'm so dumb. I lied and tried to make myself sound cool.
Scott Aukerman
Where do you work?
Rick Faber
I don't have a job.
Scott Aukerman
You don't have a job? What do you do all day?
Rick Faber
I just. Well, I do Skate.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, but you, I go around.
Rick Faber
I make fun of people with my friends. Ugh. I'm the worst and I know it.
Scott Aukerman
Ugh. Too bad. All right, Nancy, what do you have to plug? Obviously, you know, a brand new life for you.
Nancy Cooper
Mm. Yeah. Cause I'm gonna. I'm gonna perform at Charlie Brown's once a week.
Scott Aukerman
No, actually, no, no, no, you're not doing that.
Nancy Cooper
I'm going to take the bus there.
Scott Aukerman
No, no, no, you're not.
Nancy Cooper
And then I'm gonna check on my grandma, make sure she's still in the tub.
Scott Aukerman
No, no, no. Oh, wait, you want her to remain in the tub?
Nancy Cooper
You can help me get her out.
Scott Aukerman
Wait, why? So, okay, but no, you're not doing that anymore, Nancy. You're in LA now. You're gonna be a professional standup.
Nancy Cooper
Uh huh. Yeah. And I'm gonna have a TV show.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Nancy Cooper
And then you can watch my TV show.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. And for all of that to happen, you have to let all of your old life go. The 18 cats, the Buick Skylark, your grandma in the tub. You're never gonna see them again.
Nancy Cooper
And the buttons too.
Scott Aukerman
The buttons too. And the pennies and the national Geos and the AARP magazines. All of that's gone. Okay, you're gonna be living with Kristen now, right, Kristin?
Kristen Schaal
That's right. Woody Allen said, Success is just 80% being there, Nancy.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, yeah, the Murphy Group.
Nancy Cooper
Mm. Okay. Mm. So then I guess I'll be at Charlie Brown's.
Scott Aukerman
No, Nancy, you're not gonna do that anymore, okay? We're gonna break you of this. We're gonna have to tie you down and.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah, we'll have to kidnap her.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, that'll be fun.
Kristen Schaal
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, great. Let's see. What do I wanna plug? I have February 9th. Come out to the Vancouver Comedy Festival and see me out there. I'll be doing a live podcast slash comed Bang Bang show with some special guests I cannot reveal yet. In Vancouver. Yeah. Are you gonna be out there?
