With the all new Adobe Acrobat Studio. Comedy, comedy, comedy, comedy. Come together right now. The orgy is about to end. Welcome to Comedy Bang Bang. Thanks to Geriatric Boy for that catchphrase submission. Submitted on January 10, 2023. Almost three years ago. Just getting around to it, Geriatric Boy. I hope you're not elderly and possibly dead boy by now, but we got to your catchphrase submission just in the nick of time. Hopeful, but welcome to Comedy Bang Bang for another week. My name is Scott Aukerman. We have an exceptional show coming up a little later. We have a broadcaster, we also have a team building expert and we have a stand up comedian. Such great guests coming up a little later in the show. But before we get to them, let's get to our guest of honor. She is joining the exclusive three Timers club on Comedy Bang Bang. Let's go through her appearances. Her first one in. Boy, I tell you, she only comes here in November. November 30, 2015. 10 years ago.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Wow.
Crushette
Wow, wow.
Scott Aukerman
Actually 11. 11 years or.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, don't make me do math.
Scott Aukerman
16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 2, 3, 4, 5. No, 10 years ago. She then returned nine years later in November of 2024. What happened in those nine years?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I really burned some bridges with you guys. Showed up one too many times drunken in your pool.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. And one too many times is just Once is none.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I banged on the gate, you guys wouldn't let me in.
Scott Aukerman
But she's back now in November, and I've heard of gone till November. And I think it applies in your case. You know her from such great shows as she plays the waitress on it's. Is it It's Always Sunny or It's never Sunny?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It's always sunny.
Scott Aukerman
It's always sunny.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
In Philadelphia.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
In Philly. Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Do you call it. Is that what the cast calls it? Yeah, it's always sunny in Philly.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
We're always like.
Scott Aukerman
Just to shorten it.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Scott Aukerman
I would think you would call it Sunny or Philadelphia. You just call it it's always Sunny.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It's always sunny in Philly. And then we run out, we're tired. By the end, we're old.
Scott Aukerman
Now, you also know her from such shows as. What was that? One of Perfect Couples. Oh, yeah, the Grinder.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
The Grinder.
Scott Aukerman
One of my favorites, you know. Or from Licorice Pizza.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It was a good one.
Scott Aukerman
You know her from the Diaper Money, Lonely island video.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
That's right.
Scott Aukerman
This is off. Out of memory.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
This is amazing.
Scott Aukerman
This is off the top of my head. And now she is returning in the thing that brought her back to Comedy Bang Bang just one year ago.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
The only reason I took that show, I knew it would get me back here.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. She is returning to the show A Man on the Inside, which season, two of which comes out this Thursday. Please welcome back to the show joining the exclusive Three Timers Club, Mary Elizabeth Ellis.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Hi. I wish you guys could see this jacket, this Three Timer jacket that I have on. There's so much bling on it.
Scott Aukerman
No matter how many appearances anyone makes on the show, we make a jacket for them that corresponds with the number of times they've been on it. So One Timers, you know, that's. We've talked about this. That's where you want to be, the One Timers Club, because that means you came on the show, whatever you promoted did so well.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
You got so famous, you never had to. You blocked Scott's phone number.
Scott Aukerman
Who's in the One Timers Club? Paul Rudd.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, more like Paul Rude. Why won't he come back?
Scott Aukerman
Thank you. Childish Gambino. More like Childish Dumbino.
Bill Walton
Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Rude.
Scott Aukerman
Rude.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Rude Beano.
Scott Aukerman
Ben Stiller. More like Ben. Still not here.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Rude.
Scott Aukerman
I think he only did it as a favor to me because I asked him.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Well, that was nice.
Scott Aukerman
That was nice of him.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, but now he's rude.
Scott Aukerman
Now he's rude. But she's back for her third appearance.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Not rude.
Scott Aukerman
Things are going poorly for her. Things are going okay. You're back on.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Things are going fine.
Scott Aukerman
You're back on. Man on the Inside. This is, of course, Ted Danson's return to television. As if he ever left. He's in 18 million shows.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
He really is.
Scott Aukerman
He's one of our greatest.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
And so many commercials.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, he does commercials. He does television. Not a lot of movies. Although he was in Creepshow. He was in Creeps show.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Three Men and a Baby.
Scott Aukerman
Three Men and a Baby with that ghost. Here's my theory. That ghost got inside him during Three.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Men and a Baby and won't let him leave television. He's like, we're never doing a movie again. You saw what happened now.
Scott Aukerman
Man on the Inside. Of course. We've all seen the first season of this. It regards Ted Danson, who plays a recent retiree who starts snooping around on behalf of a lady lawyer. Is that or what?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
She's a private investigator, but she dresses like a lady lawyer. She's very serious. Yeah. It's based on a documentary that won an Oscar. Well, well, well, well, well, well. From out of Chile. And yeah, his wife has passed. Who would be my fictional mother. He can't figure out what to do with himself. And I'm like, you got to figure out something to do with yourself. So he applies to a private investigation firm and starts going undercover at an old folks home.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. There's a rash of jewelry thievery, jewel theft.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Just like the Louvre.
Scott Aukerman
Exactly. Is that what season two is about? The Louvre?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes.
Scott Aukerman
He goes under undercover as like an artist. One of those guys you like. What do they do? They retouch the. What is that? Jesus Picture that. They retouched.
Bill Walton
That'd be cool.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, yeah. That looked good. That was great. That's the big reveal. He mostly just spends the majority of season two inside of an air duct. Much.
Scott Aukerman
It's like Bruce Willis in Die Hard. Yeah, but he can't go back to this old folks home, right?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
He sure can't. He solved that problem.
Scott Aukerman
He solved that. But I'm trying to remember the end of the show. Wasn't he happy in the old folks home and he made a bunch of friends and stuff like that. Why doesn't he just stay there?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
He solved the mystery, but he's not ready to retire and should retire.
Scott Aukerman
He should just stay there.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Well, call Mike. Sure. Text Mike. I bet he didn't.
Scott Aukerman
Do you.
Bill Walton
Give me his number.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Think about that. Yeah, he's on a community college campus in season two.
Scott Aukerman
Community college. Interesting. Now you play his daughter.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I sure do.
Scott Aukerman
And you got involved in the mystery in season one, but because you're not an old person, you couldn't be that involved in it.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
That's right.
Scott Aukerman
Are you doing a 21 or 2? 2. Jump street thing where you're like playing a college kid in this one?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, man, I really wish. That would have been incredible.
Scott Aukerman
You gotta get me in the writer's room. Text Mike's your writer.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Okay, okay, we'll shut our own.
Scott Aukerman
Wait, I don't want to be in a writer's room.
Bill Walton
Nevermind.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
We'll shoot our own version of it. I don't want to be in a room.
Scott Aukerman
Maybe I'll consult. Yeah, one day a week.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I feel like they did a lot of watching the Eat baby eagles hatch in the writer's room.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, yeah, we were watching that here at home.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. So see if that works its way into your subconscious while you're watching season two. Our friend Lisa Gilroy, who's.
Scott Aukerman
Yes. Yeah, I know her. I've met her a couple of times.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
She funny? She's really great.
Scott Aukerman
I've never. I mean, I've just had serious conversations with her, so I don't really know her.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Well, that's.
Scott Aukerman
In that respect.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
But you come with. So you both come with so much comedy that it neutralizes and it's a very serious.
Scott Aukerman
Once we step out the door outside of podcast things, we just let it all out and go, and then we're deadly serious.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Solve some world crises.
Scott Aukerman
So how do you get involved in this season's escapades? Last time you visited him, although the lady lawyer private investigator was playing his daughter, so you had to play a cousin or something like that. I don't mean to give away everything that happened here.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, let the people watch the show. They've watched it.
Scott Aukerman
Although they've watched it.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Everyone's watched it by now.
Scott Aukerman
But how do you get involved in the case this time?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I'm involved in the case a little, but I'm more the heart of the show.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, what does that mean?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
A heart is a body part, but also metaphor.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, the circulatory system. Metaphorically.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. But metaphorically, it's like what makes people cry or laugh or remember their own parents.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, so no one's gonna be laughing or crying until you get on screen during the show.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Otherwise it's just a big, like, I mean, meh. I guess this is.
Scott Aukerman
And then suddenly you're on screen.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Calling parents Making amends.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. Oh, yes, because the two of you have a good relationship, but there's some kinks to be worked out.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. You know, I really took care of him in the first season. And in this season, I need to face my own grief, okay?
Scott Aukerman
Oh, really? What's going on with your.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Well, I did lose my mother.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Yeah. But that was like, before the first season.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
A season and a half ago.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I feel like that's what grief counselors say, right? That was like a season and a half ago.
Scott Aukerman
What if we did the prequel season where it was like season zero and we got to see your mother die?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I mean, why are you not going in this writer's room? You have your finger on the pulse.
Scott Aukerman
And then we find out someone murdered her.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, and then he has to solve that mystery.
Scott Aukerman
Yes.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I like it.
Scott Aukerman
This. Let's raise the stakes, as they say. It's a poker term.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Let's do it. Ante up.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. Because this time it's personal. Who killed my wife?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
This time it's personal.
Scott Aukerman
Who killed my wife.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I like it. And Bill Devane can come in and play Ted Danson's part.
Scott Aukerman
Sure, why not?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
That sounded like a good Bill Devane impression. Who killed my wife?
Scott Aukerman
I think I was trying to do a Harrison Ford and the Fugitive, but he said, I didn't kill my wife. He wasn't concerned with who did it. He just wanted to say, like, I didn't do it.
Bill Walton
I didn't kill my wife.
Scott Aukerman
I don't care. Want me to do the whole movie for you? I'll do Joey Pants.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes.
Scott Aukerman
Hey, it's the Fugitive over here.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, I feel like this is a great season.
Scott Aukerman
I think this is my one man show.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I like it. It's called Season Zero. Season zero, A man on the inside.
Scott Aukerman
Scott Aukerman performs the Fugitive.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes. Yeah, I'm in. I'll be there.
Scott Aukerman
Well, this is wonderful stuff. A man on the inside. Oh, also, doesn't he find romance in this season? Is that tough?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
He does.
Scott Aukerman
So he's a man on the inside in two respects.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Well, I don't know how inside he gets. I'm not sure. There's a whole episode where we talk details.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, give me all the deets, Daddy.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, give me all those dirty deets.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. Mary Steenburgen comes in and plays his hot new thang.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, she's. She's the greatest, isn't she?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
No, it did not look like.
Scott Aukerman
Don't like her. Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Awful woman. Yeah. I mean, the two of Them. Incredible. Yeah, the best.
Scott Aukerman
I've hung out with him on two occasions. Hung out as a little. Little strong. I was around them.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
You were around them?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, once at a wedding and once because I worked with Mr. Danson in something.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
What did you work with Mr. Danson?
Scott Aukerman
I was on Cheers for 10 seasons.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, I am so sorry that I never said congratulations.
Scott Aukerman
I played Frasier.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh. Oh. I thought you were more of a Carla, but.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, but wonderful show. It's back on the air this Thursday on Netflix. And how many episodes are we talking? It was eight last season. Right? This is all from memory.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
You're doing great. I'm so proud of you.
Scott Aukerman
8 last year. How many we got this year?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
We're going to go eight again.
Scott Aukerman
Eight again. Are you in every single episode?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Nope.
Scott Aukerman
Uh. Oh.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
But I got paid for all of them.
Scott Aukerman
And how many are you just on the phone while you're in your house?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
That's a great question. Maybe two.
Scott Aukerman
And Eugene plays your husband, Right?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Eugene plays my husband.
Scott Aukerman
Everything go well there in your relationship? We're not dealing with your divorce or anything like that?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
No, no, thank God. Some things get shaken up, but my marriage is solid.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Bill Walton
Good.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
The kids being crazy again.
Scott Aukerman
Being crazy. You on the phone going, dad, you got to get out of this community college. This is too dangerous.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Are you sure you weren't in the writer's room?
Scott Aukerman
Man on the inside. This Thursday, Netflix. We need to get to our next guest. Can you stick around the whole show? Is that something you're prepared to do?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I'll be here.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, great. Let's get to our next guest. He is a broadcaster. I mentioned a broadcaster of note. He was. He played for the NBA, I believe, on the. I think he played in Texas. Perhaps for the San Antonio Spurs. No, I don't know what teams he played with. I mainly know him as a broadcaster. Also, I believe he's dead. I'm not quite sure. But please welcome back to the show Bill Walton.
Bill Walton
Scott Aukerman, What a delight. And a gobble gobble to you, big dog.
Scott Aukerman
Gobble gobble to you. Oh, by the way, Mary Elizabeth, you are also on the Thanksgiving episode of the Comedy Bang Bang TV show. So you're a true November goddess here with Comedy Bang Bang.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, thank you. Yes. That gobble gobble made me feel right. Thank you.
Bill Walton
Oh, thank you.
Scott Aukerman
Wow.
Bill Walton
And what a joy for me to be in a room with the great Mary Elizabeth Ellis, one of the great Mary Elizabeths.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
From Winstead to Master Antonio.
Bill Walton
Master Antonio, thank you so much. I had that on the tip of my tongue, man.
Scott Aukerman
Remember in the Abyss when she looked like she died and they gave her CPR for a full 10 screen time minutes?
Bill Walton
Scott, how many times have I told you spoiler alert on the Abyss? I'm waiting for the right time to watch it.
Scott Aukerman
You're waiting for the right cut?
Bill Walton
Yes. They haven't given me a cut of the abyss that I'm sat. Is that Cameron? And who's the Abyss?
Scott Aukerman
Cameron is the abyss.
Bill Walton
Oh, baby. I'm waiting for Cameron to come back in there and maybe throw some Na' Vi in the movie and then I'm interested.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, man.
Bill Walton
You see that interview where he was like, the Na' Vi had to have big butts and beautiful breasts?
Scott Aukerman
I didn't see it though.
Bill Walton
It was like people simply had to be attracted to the Na'. Vi. And I couldn't have agreed more. That's why the man has made three of the biggest movies of all time. Scott Ackerman.
Scott Aukerman
I think that's the one way that people can find empathy for someone who's different from you is finding them attractive.
Bill Walton
That's the Cameron school of moviemaking. It's a dark place to. But it keeps working. So he must know something, right, Scott?
Scott Aukerman
He's gotta know something. Yeah. Remember that? What's that? True Lies one or. Boy, some funny stuff in there.
Bill Walton
Oh, my God. And what about Curtis doing the Lord's work? That movie only works because you actually believe she's attracted Donald Schwarzenegger for the whole movie. I know.
Scott Aukerman
Can you imagine?
Bill Walton
It's a hard, hard job. And she, like, really loves the guy and it's like, okay, well, I believe you.
Scott Aukerman
No wonder she won the Oscar.
Bill Walton
Did she win for that?
Scott Aukerman
She didn't win for that. She should have.
Bill Walton
She should.
Scott Aukerman
I think it's like Scorsese's Oscar where, you know, like, they gave it to her for True Lies.
Bill Walton
Yes, that's what everybody was saying. And Tom Arnold's next.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, I hope so.
Bill Walton
They didn't give him his True Lies Oscar. He deserves it. I've had this argument before. Scott Ackman, if you don't mind me taking over the interviewing job here.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, sure. Yeah, go ahead.
Bill Walton
And I want to open it up to your guest as well. Do you consider Arnold Schwarzenegger a sex symbol?
Scott Aukerman
I find him.
Bill Walton
He's a sexy guy.
Scott Aukerman
I find him visually abhorrent. But what about you?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I feel that he's been exploded out of a helicopter into my heart.
Bill Walton
Okay. Wow, I love that. That's an incredible answer.
Scott Aukerman
Can you imagine? In True Lies.
Bill Walton
Yes.
Scott Aukerman
When Schwarzenegger's flying the jet plane that has a missile on it, and then he's got the villain on the missile and he goes, you're fired. What if the guy on the missile said, you can't fire me, I quit. Then what would he have done?
Bill Walton
I'm stumped.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Then the guy would have to climb in the jet and press the button himself and then get back to the missile to get himself off the jet.
Bill Walton
That's true. That's why they probably discussed it and realized it wouldn't be.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Or maybe they shot it.
Bill Walton
Oh, if with Cameron. I'm sure they shot an option. I'm sure they shot.
Scott Aukerman
You gotta shoot an option.
Bill Walton
You know better than me. I haven't been.
Scott Aukerman
That's moviemaking. You gotta shoot sizes and options.
Bill Walton
Yes. Okay. I don't even know sizes.
Scott Aukerman
Different frame sizes.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, Lots of inserts, too, just in case. You gotta have something to cut to.
Scott Aukerman
So cut to hands holding a coffee cup.
Bill Walton
Oh, yeah. If I don't see an insert of the person touching the thing they're interacting with, I'm like, well, where did it go? Or even when. More. If I don't see someone clearly Photoshopped into a picture with the other person as a younger couple, I'm like, were they ever together in the past?
Scott Aukerman
Yep. You also have to every scene, start with the main character coming from the bathroom and then end the scene with them going into the bathroom. Because you're gonna have to use once. Because I don't know if you have this experience. I watch movies going, when are they going to the bathroom? We aren't seeing them going to the bathroom. These people never go to the bathroom.
Bill Walton
What if the whole thing that you saw that Nicole Kidman is watching before AMC movies was scenes where people are walking into the bathroom? And it keeps cutting back to her nodding like, she loves movies.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
But they have great bathrooms at AMCs, and that's a selling point.
Bill Walton
Would they say so?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, sure. Big open bathroom.
Bill Walton
You maybe don't use the men's room there.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I don't.
Bill Walton
I don't know that they've ever taken out the paper towels from the men's room at the AMC bathrooms, you bring your own. You bring your own, and then you just put it on top of a little Jenga of filthy paper towels that all the men of Burbank have used, including Jay.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Now, see, in the women's bathroom, you just stick your hands into popcorn. Like there's an extra.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, there's just a popcorn bowl.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
And that's how you dry your hands.
Bill Walton
Incredible.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Bill Walton
Do they switch out the bucket per movie?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
No, no, no, no.
Bill Walton
It's always like that.
Scott Aukerman
It's like the Wolverine with his open mouth.
Crushette
Yeah, yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Or like the.
Bill Walton
Get your hands in here, bub.
Scott Aukerman
Godzilla.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
What's the Sandworm from?
Scott Aukerman
Oh, from Dune.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. That you stick your hand in to get your popcorn out.
Bill Walton
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Scott Aukerman
Everything with these is just like an anus. Something to stick your dick into when you get home.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I don't have a dick, so I'm gonna fist it, but yeah, okay.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, sure.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Bill Walton
Is there a sense of enjoyment to that? Just kind of quietly fisting an inanimate object?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. You should try it if you learn.
Bill Walton
Something new every day. I will try it. I wish I could right now. Scott. Where the Bucket's at?
Scott Aukerman
Is that the title of this episode? Where the Bucket's At. Hey, Bill. What are you doing here?
Bill Walton
Well, I'll tell you what I'm doing here.
Scott Aukerman
Welcome to the show. I mean, it's great to have you on the show, but what's going on with you?
Bill Walton
Pleasure to be back. Look, why won't you let me and my boys hack in your backyard? We got the Hacky Sack. I got Trev, I got Case.
Scott Aukerman
Trev's here.
Bill Walton
Trev's here. Big lair. And we want to hack somewhere, man. And we just want to hack in your backyard.
Scott Aukerman
Why do you want to hack in the back?
Bill Walton
That might be the episode time.
Scott Aukerman
That might be it.
Bill Walton
We're gonna have to top that one. You just got the perfect yard for hack. You got hack room, you got high ceilings. No ceilings in your backyard.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, that's. Normally what you want in the backyard is the no ceilings. I mean, who knows? I mean, they could be at 40,000ft. We have no idea.
Bill Walton
That's true. Do you ever have, like, air traffic control saying, you gotta move your ceiling so we can get by here?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, I can't recall, but. But I mean, there's. It feels like there's so many obstacles back there.
Bill Walton
Obstacles are the heart of hack, Scott Aukerman.
Scott Aukerman
Don't you know?
Bill Walton
Yes, absolutely. Me and my boys just need two hours to hack in your backyard. We'll be as quiet as a mouse. We just can't do it at my place anymore.
Scott Aukerman
I don't know. Every time you guys hack, I hear the hup. Oh. Oh, nice one.
Bill Walton
Okay, I'll tell Trev to lighten up on the nice ones. He's just a supportive hacker. Is that a problem for you?
Scott Aukerman
You know, it is interesting because, like, Hacky Sack, no one wins.
Bill Walton
Right?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It's not a competitive sport or everyone wins.
Scott Aukerman
That's a good point.
Bill Walton
I mean, throw it down one time. Mary Elizabeth Ellis. That's exactly right.
Scott Aukerman
Are there competitions? Like, are there. You know what I mean? Like, can you go out there and play against other people?
Bill Walton
I am sick of competitions in this sick, crazy world.
Scott Aukerman
Scott Akamara, you played in the NBA for how many seasons?
Bill Walton
God knows how many. I think around eight. But my back got fucked about five seasons into. And then I just had to. You know, I was barely a shell of myself. But even you having to remember what teams I played for, that's not my value. Listen to Alan Watts. Scott Aukerman. It's not about winning or losing. It's about the fun we had along the way. And so I am on a journey to do sports with no winners or losers. That's why I hack with the big dogs.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. Who. And so Big Lair is there.
Bill Walton
Big Lair? Yes. Big Lair.
Scott Aukerman
What happened to Tiny Lair? Because he was playing with you for a while.
Bill Walton
Tiny Lair got stuck.
Scott Aukerman
In what?
Bill Walton
In a suitcase. He was trying to join an ocean's eleven. And he got stuck in a suitcase.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, no.
Bill Walton
It was too small or too big. I don't know what the logic would be. I guess the zipper broke. I guess is what happened at time.
Scott Aukerman
He was trying to join an ocean.
Bill Walton
He was trying to join. Well, you know, you go to Vegas and there's the people on the side with the cards. And some of them are hitting the cards like, this is a place where nasty people do nasty things. But some of them are like, we need someone for our oceans 11. We need somewhere in our ocean's 11. And you walk by and you go, okay, what do you need a Bernie Mac type? A little guy who can climb around into things.
Scott Aukerman
A guy who eats all the time.
Bill Walton
Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Acrobatic.
Bill Walton
Acrobatic. Maybe just a guy who clearly thinks he's funny and works.
Scott Aukerman
Are you talking about the British guy?
Bill Walton
Whichever one it is. Or a Pacino even, which is what I ought to be.
Scott Aukerman
I think they all think they're funny, right?
Bill Walton
The ocean's 11. Yeah, well, they're just having fun. Don't you like watching rich people have fun? Scout on fire.
Scott Aukerman
I love it, man.
Bill Walton
It's one of my favorite things, and I really mean that. I don't know why it brings me so much.
Scott Aukerman
Rich people pretending to be poor people who then get rich in the movie. And so everything feels right with the world at the end.
Bill Walton
Yes, exactly. And the only way way that we get some of the wonderful small budget movies out there, like Black Bag, is if we spend the big bucks on an Ocean's eleven. That's what I'm here for. Watch big budget movies by guys who do a one for us, one for them.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. Like Avatar with the navi.
Bill Walton
Yes. Everybody watch Avatar. We've got Fire and Ice coming out soon. They're fire Na'. Vi.
Scott Aukerman
That's right, Scott.
Bill Walton
Ocra. When you watched the first Avatar, was there a moment where you said they could do this with fire also?
Scott Aukerman
Well, the first Avatar, they were in the air. Then the second one, they were in the water. Now they're in the fire in four. What are they? Maybe they're in Underground.
Bill Walton
What you're seeing before you is my mind being blown. I did not realize that they were in the air in the first one. And I guess totally right. Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Up in the trees.
Bill Walton
They should have put air in the title because I knew the second one was Water because it's in the title.
Scott Aukerman
It's almost in the title. It should be Avatar is what you're saying.
Bill Walton
Great note. Could they redo it? Like live, Die, repeat. Just change the title for us. Thank you, Scott. Aquaman. It's a great idea. That's a great idea.
Scott Aukerman
Everyone go see Avatar. It, much like AI is propping up the entire industry.
Bill Walton
Yes.
Scott Aukerman
Our whole economy crashes. If AI crashes, how long before we.
Bill Walton
Get an AI guest on Comedy Bang Bang?
Scott Aukerman
Oh, I would love that.
Bill Walton
Don't you think it would be fun?
Scott Aukerman
Sometimes I think you're an AI guest.
Bill Walton
What do you mean by that?
Scott Aukerman
Scott, Arkansas, you're clearly dead.
Bill Walton
But Scott, I don't know how many times I have to explain this. I died. Then I came back to Earth on the Comedy Bang Bang Tour, realized I hadn't finished one of the things on my bucket list. Making a TV show called Entourage about a boy who moves to LA with all of his aunts and makes it big. And now I'm trying to do that. And once I do it, I can go to heaven.
Scott Aukerman
You can finally ascend or descend or whatever.
Bill Walton
You think you're gonna follow that journey on Eat, Pray, Dunk, Comedy Bang Bang World? Me and Mark Rennie.
Scott Aukerman
Were you a basketball fan and no. No, you were not. And so you've never seen, first of all, the most orange ball in sports?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes. Are you interested now? Didn't know that.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Nope.
Lotto Bosco
Nope.
Scott Aukerman
Is there a more orange ball?
Bill Walton
If there is, I haven't Seen it. I mean, I guess the one in the White House, maybe.
Scott Aukerman
You mean the Cheeto in Chief.
Bill Walton
Where did you think of it, Scott?
Scott Aukerman
I was eating some Cheetos the other day, and I was like, this is a little familiar.
Bill Walton
Well, I tell you what, Scott Akerman, if you let me and the boys hack in the backyard, we'll just crash at your place tonight. How about that for that?
Scott Aukerman
That's not an enticement for me.
Bill Walton
What do you. Wait. Okay. DoorDash. 50. 50 split. Whatever you want in Los Angeles.
Scott Aukerman
Wait, 50 to 50. There's five of you hacking and I pay 50%.
Bill Walton
And the six of us pay the other half.
Scott Aukerman
No, absolutely not.
Bill Walton
Okay, well, I'm trying to meet you halfway. Compromises the soul of wit. Scott Aukofan.
Scott Aukerman
Give me something. Give me. What do you have to offer?
Bill Walton
Okay, let's see. I've got. Well, I'm kind of in a fight with somebody on Facebook Marketplace right now because I overpaid for a Joe Rogan kettlebell. I can give you the Joe Rogan kettlebell for 45 bucks. It's Joe Rogan's big head with the kettlebell handles.
Scott Aukerman
How much did you pay for it?
Bill Walton
$450.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
That's a deal. That's a 90% discount.
Bill Walton
You think that's a deal? That's what this guy's saying?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Bill Walton
I'm not any stronger or funnier.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
No, no, no, no. It's a deal for Scott.
Bill Walton
Oh, for Scott to have it. Thank you. Yes. Thank you so much for the support on that one, Mary Elizabeth.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, I also feel like there is a benefit to maybe having these guys hack in your back. I mean, you have a child. Don't you want her to see.
Scott Aukerman
To grow up with some sort of.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Role models all of their time hacking in your back?
Bill Walton
I guess it's a great point.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Speaking of capitalism, I mean, that's a great way for her to understand that, like, not everybody out here trying to make money.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. Yeah. So not everyone can be a winner. Some people have to be losers.
Bill Walton
So you're saying we're all losers because we're not playing to win and we're trying to hack in your back right now.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. If you're not winners, you're losers.
Bill Walton
Who is that?
Scott Aukerman
I think that's the Cheeto in Chief.
Bill Walton
Oh, my God. I think that's a wonderful idea. I appreciate the support on your end, Emmy. And I'm wondering, add a me in there. What's that?
Scott Aukerman
Oh, no, me, me.
Bill Walton
Sounds like mini me.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Boy, he was funny, wasn't he? Remember the rap?
Bill Walton
The one that. Wait, does he rap in the middle.
Scott Aukerman
Of just the two of us?
Bill Walton
Just the two of us, Yeah. I was in the theater with my friends and I remember looking at them and saying, this is exactly our sense of humor. The first time I saw that suck at Austin Powers. My God.
Scott Aukerman
We in the franchise love to hear that.
Bill Walton
Oh, that's right. I forgot. BigF, big back and Gold member.
Scott Aukerman
That's right.
Bill Walton
Big Back and Gold member.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. Yes. We, as we in the franchise just love to hear that anyone enjoyed any.
Bill Walton
Part of what's your YTD on that job?
Scott Aukerman
How much money I've made on it?
Bill Walton
Yeah, exactly. When you're looking at that check with.
Scott Aukerman
Your ytd, I honestly do not know. I could maybe get that information from you.
Bill Walton
Although I hate you hosting while you do it, if you like.
Scott Aukerman
I hate to bother my people with that kind of trivial.
Bill Walton
No, hit them up. Hit him up. What's my YTD on Gold member, Baby.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
We just want to know if you made enough to afford a Joe Rogan kettlebell secondhand.
Scott Aukerman
It might be about $45. I'm not quite sure.
Bill Walton
But my question. I had a question. It was a great question.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, man.
Bill Walton
Back to your child watching us hack in the back. I would say that's a great idea. If she could still be behind a glass or inside the house or something. Because a lot of times if kids are watching, they accidentally become the hack and we're so in it, we don't even know.
Scott Aukerman
It's like during the World Series, those nets that are protecting everyone from the ball, it seems like they just expanding and expanding because people keep getting hit with balls.
Bill Walton
That's why they're making a bigger. I thought it was just big net going, like, hey, we can make this a little bigger for you. Yeah, but it's. People get hit with balls.
Scott Aukerman
I think so. Yeah. I'm pretty sure.
Bill Walton
I didn't know that I was watching.
Scott Aukerman
But then everyone's out there with their gloves because they want to be hit with the balls because they want to catch them.
Bill Walton
You know, I think they all want to join the teams.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Well, I've always said it. If you go to a baseball game with a glove, you should be able to jump the fence and go and field some ground balls during the game.
Bill Walton
Yeah, why not? And if you're good, that's like an audition, in a sense.
Scott Aukerman
Sure.
Bill Walton
You should be able to audition for anything that you're at at any Given time.
Scott Aukerman
And the manager should be there going like, you know what? Take his place.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. Get out there.
Bill Walton
And I think the seed of the competition would make players play. Look, what if Shohei knows that there's someone in the stands who's a hundred times more eager than him. He's gonna try a little harder.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Finally lazy.
Bill Walton
He just looks like he's not even breaking a sweat.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Get off the bench. You know.
Bill Walton
Thank you.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, thank you.
Bill Walton
I was leaning over to people. I'm in the nosebleeds. And I'm leaning over to people and I'm like, get off the bench.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Get off the bench guy.
Scott Aukerman
Why are you in the nosebleeds? You're one of sports greatest broadcasters. I don't know about you as a player.
Bill Walton
One of the greatest as well. A two time champion could have been one of the great centers of all time if you ask me. But anyway, they put me in the nosebleeds. I have tickets for the front row. But my nose, it bleeds. So they put me up there. Cause it gets on everybody else.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Runs right down. Runs all the way down to the field.
Bill Walton
Yes.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It's a lot of blood.
Bill Walton
Are red with the blood of the wicked. Which is me. And it's the wicked because I'm painted green. Because I've just seen the movie and had a blast.
Scott Aukerman
Wicked for good. Yeah. Coming out a week from Wednesday.
Bill Walton
Is someone here to plug that?
Scott Aukerman
Nope, just wanted to.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Ariana Grande.
Bill Walton
I believe that's two weeks from Wednesday.
Scott Aukerman
Come on, man. We had a discussion about when this episode comes out. Right before we started this episode.
Bill Walton
My B. My B. Big dog. All right, well, I'm down to hack. Let's see if we can find. Kind of. Cause this is all about compromise. This'll be a little less.
Scott Aukerman
I am trying to compromise. You haven't given me anything other than the kettlebell. A kettlebell has got his face on it.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Kettlebell.
Bill Walton
What's something that you want? Or like, what's something that you know, Scott looks like he wants, you know, because I can't read you right now. Scott.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Corndog.
Scott Aukerman
Corndog. Honestly, I would take a corn dog. Right? No deal.
Bill Walton
It's no deal. I can't make that work.
Scott Aukerman
You can't give up one of your corn dogs. Oh, I thought you were vegetarian.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
You have so many corn dogs over there.
Bill Walton
I know, but I'm hoarding them. I'm hoarding the corn dogs because people are gonna come for my corn dogs eventually.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Zombie apocalypse.
Bill Walton
Exactly.
Scott Aukerman
Some sort of Pluribus situation gonna happen.
Bill Walton
It's gonna be Pluribus and everyone's gonna first, everyone's gonna go, this is very interesting. I'm glad the big man's making a different tone of show. I'm curious to see where he's gonna go with it. They're talking about Gill and then they're gonna say, uh, oh, Gilligan.
Scott Aukerman
Remember the Skipper?
Bill Walton
Not really. I never watched it.
Scott Aukerman
You never watched Gilligan?
Bill Walton
No. All I know is a three hour tour from the Weird Al song.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, it was black and white for a little bit, then it turned into color and everyone was like, what if that happened these days where you're watching a show for two whole years and it's just black and white and then.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It turns into black and white?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It would have to go the other way, right?
Bill Walton
Yeah, they'd have to reverse the show. A man on the inside, maybe.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
So a black and white man, Season zero.
Scott Aukerman
Although I guess Better Call Saul, a lot of that was black and white.
Bill Walton
That's true. So Gilligan did it. You are the synchronous man today.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, so Gilligan is out there saying, like, I want to make sure everyone knows this is influenced by Gilligan's Island. So he films part of Better Call Saul in black and white.
Bill Walton
I think that's the only explanation. I mean, you've got a closer into odenkirk than I do, but if you want, I can reach out and check in.
Scott Aukerman
We have a call him. Okay. We have a text once a year on his bir. On his birthday relationship, not on mine.
Bill Walton
And he texts you on his birthday.
Scott Aukerman
Right.
Bill Walton
And he goes, waiting. Waiting on that text, Scotty boy.
Scott Aukerman
Exactly. Well, gosh, Bill, I don't think it's going to happen for you. Although I do want that kettlebell. So this is just his face? It's not his sweaty shirt from his last standup special?
Bill Walton
No, the shirt was inaccessible. It's. You know, that thing's worth a lot of money because, you know, it makes you look so in shape.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, it's Alpha or even Sigma kind of feel to it.
Bill Walton
I didn't know we threw it up to Sigma. Which one's Sigma?
Scott Aukerman
Sigma is where it's even better than Alpha. Really? That's where you want to be?
Bill Walton
Wow.
Scott Aukerman
Wow.
Bill Walton
Well, I gotta rush a new frat then.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Me too. I got a lot of work to do.
Bill Walton
Yeah. Are you in a frat?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Bill Walton
Which one are you in? I'm in AE PI. The Jewish fraternity.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, great. I actually am a Kappa Kappa Gamma. And even though we're a sorority, we're actually a fratern.
Bill Walton
What do you mean by that?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
We started before all the other sororities. So we're a fraternity.
Bill Walton
Yeah. Because on the campus it had to be called something else. Isn't fraternity. Isn't the etymology of that that it's fraternal, a brotherhood?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Sure, yeah. Yeah, but. And they hadn't, they hadn't started any other sororities yet, so we were like, guess we'll be a fraternity.
Bill Walton
You were the founding member.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Bill Walton
That's incredibly impressive. That takes a lot of work and effort in common.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
1814. 1814, when everything was black and white.
Bill Walton
I've always wondered this around you, things were black and white.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yep.
Bill Walton
You just. That's how you saw through your own eyes.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yep.
Scott Aukerman
Until like right after World War II. Right.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, yeah, that right after six, that bomb exploded.
Bill Walton
Right.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
And everything went.
Scott Aukerman
Everything was color. Amazing. Well, gosh, Bill, I don't think it's gonna happen, but. So call up the boys and say, no go, no dice.
Bill Walton
Fuck you.
Scott Aukerman
Hey, Bill.
Bill Walton
You fucking prick.
Scott Aukerman
What the hell? Hey.
Bill Walton

Bill Walton
I think one of your friends is in it.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Bill Walton
It's like a guy named Adam and.
Scott Aukerman
Another guy, two friends of the show. They both been on this show.
Bill Walton
I forget which Adams they are.
Scott Aukerman
Adam Brody hasn't joined joined the three timers club yet. Things are going great for him.

He's only in the two time.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
He also want a Netflix show. So come on, what are we doing?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, he's top lining it.
Bill Walton
Of course.
Scott Aukerman
You're on the phone in several scenes.
Bill Walton
I'm going to say this right now, actually. Scott Aukerman.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I bet he's number two on the call sheet and so am I. Oh, really?
Bill Walton
You think Brody's too? Oh, yeah, he is.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, yeah. KB is up there at number one.
Bill Walton
Yeah. I'm going to say this right now, Scott Aukman. And this is going to go viral. Okay. Are you Ready for that?
Scott Aukerman
Oh, all right.
Bill Walton
Here we go. I, a Jewish man, audition for a character on that show. A Jewish character.
Scott Aukerman
Bill Walton is auditioning for Netflix.
Bill Walton
You got it. I'm submitting. I'm auditioning.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Okay.
Bill Walton
And lo and behold, who do they cast? Timothy Simons, one of the least Jewish men I've ever met. I was on an improv team with this guy and he couldn't. I had to miss a practice for Yom Kippur and he had no idea what I was talking about. And here he is wearing and I'll say it and you can bleep it if you need Jew face on this show. Making millions of dollars, I'm assuming. I don't know the Netflix pay rate. Well, I, A poor, poor, poor man.
Scott Aukerman
Poor dead man who only came back to life to try to get his show on the air.
Bill Walton
Can't even get his Entourage show on the air. And then Timothy rubs it in my face by doing a commercial that's all about how nice his car is and it's so nice his parents think he's richer than he is.
Scott Aukerman
I think this guy is not even in the one timers club.
Bill Walton
How.
Scott Aukerman
I think he's.
Bill Walton
Can you have us on together and we'll get into it about.
Scott Aukerman
I would love that.
Bill Walton
I think we'll break some stuff down.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
That's what the people want.
Bill Walton
Yes. Maybe the holiday episode just fire everybody.
Scott Aukerman
In and maybe he's been on once. Oh, I think he's. He was on once.
Bill Walton
A forgettable appearance in.
Scott Aukerman
This was a full calendar year before me was on the show. This was in April of. Of 2014.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I can't believe anything ever happened before I was on this show.
Scott Aukerman
I know. Yeah. I can't remember anything.
Bill Walton
There's definitely B M E E and a M E E. Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Thank you.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Bowel movement.
Bill Walton
What?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Bill Walton
Was that the new little trot song?
Scott Aukerman
Bowel movement. What? All right, we need to get to our next guest. She's a til. Sorry, a team building expert, not a till beaming expert. She's been on the show once before. Please welcome back to the show Chrishette.
Crushette
Hi. I'm so happy to be here. Thank you for having me. And I think I'm here at like, probably the exact right time because I'm sensing a little bit of tension in this room.
Scott Aukerman
A little disharmony.
Crushette
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
So we got into a big. Fuck me, fuck you off.
Crushette
Yeah. There's something happening and I just. So a little bit of background. I'm a team building expert. I get teams together from all kinds of companies.
Scott Aukerman
You don't build them, you get them together.
Crushette
Right. They're. They're already built, but sometimes they're not gelled or glommed and they're not knowing how to work together. Right. So we got to get them in a room, we got to do some seatbelt and expert work.
Scott Aukerman
What's that now? Sorry, go ahead.
Crushette
Oh, some team building expert work.
Scott Aukerman
Right.
Crushette
Okay. I do have a little bit of one confession. Yeah?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Oh.
Crushette
So I was working with the surgeons from cedar cyanide last night and we did an amazing team building workshop and we were gelling and glomming so much. We were clumped and glommed and we really wanted to keep the momentum going, so we went out and after the team building.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, wow.
Crushette
We went out all night and I have not been in yet, so I'm still out.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay.
Crushette
I thought I was at a bar right now, but I.
Scott Aukerman
Then I introduced you.
Crushette
I thought that. And then you introduced me.
Scott Aukerman
You just thought that you were getting bad service at a bar.
Crushette
I thought I was at a bar.
Scott Aukerman
I wonder why you were waving a 20 around.
Crushette
Well, and then nobody was paying attention. And then I started hearing a conflict and so I got interested because I like to build and glom after I hear something.
Scott Aukerman
Now, you were booked on the show a long time ago. Frankly, I'm amazed you showed up. Are you a self driving car or.
Crushette
I was, in a way. Mo. But I did have your address in my contacts and so it sent me here. I thought I was going to birds.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay. To birds. Right. Were they hula hoop on the table? They dance on the tables there and everything? Yeah. Boy, these are local references, by the way.
Crushette
I needed like, some chicken and so. But here I am.
Scott Aukerman
You want some morning chicken?
Crushette
I wanted some morning chicken, but I'm so, so happy to be here instead.
Scott Aukerman
Well, I'm glad you're here because honestly, there's some disharmony between Bill and I. Am me and I. Yeah.
Crushette
Me, Bill and you. I think that there's some really some good team building we can do here.
Scott Aukerman
Let's do it. I'm so sorry that you're not feeling at your best.
Crushette
No, I feel amaz. I literally feel amazing.
Bill Walton
I mean.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, I mean, you're obviously still kind of drunk.
Crushette
I mean, what did you guys do.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Last night after that? So much glitter on your face.
Crushette
We went to. So after Cedar Surgeons Sesh, we started at Woods Woody Harrelson's weed lounge.
Scott Aukerman
Oh.
Crushette
So then we started there and then we popped over To Boa Steakhouse. Had a nice little steak. Then we went to the Abbey, and things got a little out of control. And then we popped over to the Scientology center just to grab some brochures. And then we went to the Valley.
Scott Aukerman
All the way to the Valley. This is. You're going all across la.
Crushette
We went to the Valley, and I thought that Dimples was still open, but apparently is permanently closed. It's where you do karaoke.
Scott Aukerman
Karaoke, yes.
Crushette
So I did just pop everybody into the street, and we did a little karaoke in the street.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. How did you have anything.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I want to know your song.
Scott Aukerman
Yes.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
What's your go to?
Crushette
Well, I have a confession in me.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, you have a lot of confession.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, I love it.
Crushette
I am also a Kappa Kappa Kamma. Well, we are brothers in the mystic bond.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Okay. Are you really?
Crushette
Yes.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
No wonder you're drunk at breakfast.
Crushette
Thank you.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes.
Crushette
And so our sorority song was like a prayer. Oh, Madonna.
Scott Aukerman
Madge.
Crushette
Madge. So that's my song. Oh.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, Bill.
Scott Aukerman
You don't like that song?
Bill Walton
It's a blasphemous song. And an even more blasphemous song.
Scott Aukerman
Why?
Bill Walton
There was so much controversy around the music video Leave Catholicism alone.
Scott Aukerman
And I believe. Wasn't she using a crucifix in the tour behind that to maybe do something to stimulate her?
Bill Walton
Madonna.
Crushette
Nobody says what you have to do with that thing. You could do whatever you want with that.
Bill Walton
Well, it's just a difference of opinion to me. I think that's a cross too far to bear.
Crushette
Oh, you're offended?
Scott Aukerman
Pun unintended.
Crushette
Okay, well, this is a brave space, and you're allowed to say exactly what you want.
Bill Walton
It's a what space?
Crushette
Brave. Brave.
Bill Walton
I am nose to nose with you on that one.
Crushette
Okay, let's get out of. Does anyone have a penny?
Scott Aukerman
I mean, they stopped making them a while back, so I, I, I mean, I have my penny collection.
Crushette
Well, this is. This is a. Called Penny for your thoughts.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Crushette
Does anyone have a penny?
Scott Aukerman
This is like a 1919 B. That is silver. When they were just.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Here we go.
Scott Aukerman
They weren't making them out of zinc.
Crushette
The perfect exercise for team building and getting to know each other. Okay, okay.
Lotto Bosco
Me.
Bill Walton
I know, I know, I know, I know.
Scott Aukerman
Hey, I know it.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Try.
Bill Walton
Go 1959.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Wrong. 14.
Scott Aukerman
Just 14.
Crushette
1459.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. 1459.
Crushette
Okay, so here's the exercise. What is a memory you have from that year?
Bill Walton
Yeah, yeah. Now it's holding pretty hard. I need a date, though.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, it's bit a little. It's been a minute. And I already said I don't believe that anything happened before I was ever on comedy.
Scott Aukerman
But you are an immortal. We haven't covered that on the show yet.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
No, I don't like to talk. I don't like.
Scott Aukerman
You're a Highlander.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I don't like to brag. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But stones.
Crushette
Oh, okay. I love that.
Scott Aukerman
A lot of stones back then.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
So many stones.
Crushette
You loved working with stones and with different materials.
Scott Aukerman
Couldn't throw a rock without any stones.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, exactly. And it was pre. Black and white.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Oh, pre. So you just saw, like, sequence.
Crushette
So what is it? Clee.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yep. Clear.
Scott Aukerman
Speaking of Scientology.
Crushette
Amazing. Well, I feel like I got to know her so much better.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Thank you for asking. Thank you.
Crushette
Yeah. You're so well done.
Bill Walton
I knew that she was very selfish with the penny and that I had the right date, and nobody said good job to me. That's what I learned.
Scott Aukerman
I have a penny here.
Crushette
Okay, great.
Scott Aukerman
2014.
Crushette
2014. I would love to hear what was a great memory from that year for use.
Scott Aukerman
Tim Symons came on Comedy Bang. Bang.
Crushette
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
And did an incredible episode with Matt Wal.
Bill Walton
And anyone can do a good episode with Matt Walsh.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. I don't think either of them did characters.
Bill Walton
It was their new V podcast, I.
Scott Aukerman
Think they were actually. Or they had some sort of podcast going.
Bill Walton
I care.
Scott Aukerman
I don't think it was Veep yet.
Crushette
Well, I think podcasts, I'm just gathering are fantastic. Way to gel and glom. Am I wrong?
Bill Walton
Can I ask you? I don't really know what glom means. Like, when I think of glomming, it's like someone glomming.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Right.
Bill Walton
Here's the look again.
Crushette
Let the fraternity.
Bill Walton
Here's the look again.
Crushette
Let the fraternity girls explain it.
Bill Walton
Okay.
Crushette
Glomming is when you get together in a group and you really glom up. What does glom mean to you?
Scott Aukerman
I think he was asking what it means to you.
Crushette
Actually, what it means to me is, like, to gel or to stick or to glue. Have you heard of glue?
Bill Walton
I've heard of it. I love this stuff.
Crushette
Me too. So it's like putting things together in a. It's like you're not separated anymore. You're glommed to each other.
Bill Walton
Okay.
Crushette
You're clinged, you're glommed sometimes to an unhealthy degree, and that's fine.
Bill Walton
Okay, you want me to unhealthily glom myself to Scott?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes.
Crushette
Another word that I learned from the Cedars surgeons last night is coagulate.
Scott Aukerman
Coagulate a lot. Like what blood does.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
That's right.
Crushette
So that's another way to say it. And I'll probably use that in my roster now.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, good.
Bill Walton
I'm words. I would love to coagulate and glom off of. Scott Aukofman. And I am trying to.
Scott Aukerman
I don't think it's reciprocal, though. See, what if. If someone wants to glom on you and you don't want to be glommed?
Crushette
That's a really good question. That's what we call the old oil and water.
Scott Aukerman
That's right.
Crushette
And a really good exercise for that is. Does anyone have an egg?
Scott Aukerman
I mean, I have three right over there. Is that enough?
Crushette
Do you have a spoon?
Scott Aukerman
I mean, I only have two spoons.
Crushette
Okay, let's use one with words, then. Does anyone have two tooths and one lie?
Bill Walton
Two tooths, two truths. Yes, and a lie.
Crushette
Or does anyone have a ski that we could put shots into and we can all do the shots together?
Scott Aukerman
I think that's what you were doing last night. I don't think that that relates.
Crushette
Really is so good.
Scott Aukerman
It did bring you guys together.
Crushette
It does. You all have to work as a team to get that shot.
Scott Aukerman
Are they still with you, by the way? Did they come over with you? Because we have a different group who seems to arrive in the background back.
Crushette
There, and they're hacking away.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Surgeons are back at surgery.
Crushette
No, some of them had to go to surgery and cocket.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Scott Aukerman
But I see some guys with masks back there. Oh, no, that's. That looks like Big Trev actually has a mask on. What kind of mask is that?
Bill Walton
Well, he's just being Covid. Safe.
Crushette
And then that's.
Bill Walton
He's got Covid. So he.
Scott Aukerman
He's got.
Bill Walton
Yeah, so he puts on his ghost face mask.
Crushette
And then that's Dr. Michelson back there, the hand surgeon.
Scott Aukerman
Dr. Michelson.
Bill Walton
I tell you what, that guy could work a shoulder in the hack.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes.
Bill Walton
Look at that. He's a what surgeon?
Crushette
A hand surgeon.
Bill Walton
Wonderful.
Scott Aukerman
You should be a foot surgeon with that technique.
Bill Walton
Scott taught me that pickup line when he was reading the game.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, you should be a foot surgeon with that technique.
Bill Walton
Yes, yes. It's like how Jeff Goldblum always compliments people's hands and says they should play piano. Scott thought of his version of that.
Scott Aukerman
Because I've never noticed that he does that once per movie, right?
Bill Walton
Yes, yes. A few times in the Fly. But you just can't understand it near the end.
Crushette
I'm loving this. We're all laughing I do love this. We're all laughing together. Can I have some of that water?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I do feel glum.
Scott Aukerman
You want some of which water?
Crushette
Yeah, I'm really thirsty.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
There you go.
Crushette
Okay. Thank you.
Bill Walton
Can I say, I don't know if you're responsible for this, but your Waymo is getting a DUI out there right now.
Crushette
Oh, no, that's good.
Bill Walton
Oh, that's good.
Crushette
I like to defer my DUIs.
Bill Walton
I didn't know we had their word.
Crushette
Defer DUI. I don't like waymos because I miss people.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. When I'm in them, I know. It's the human touch.
Crushette
I know. I like to be with people. I don't like to be alone.
Scott Aukerman
You seem like a real people person.
Crushette
I am. I love people.
Scott Aukerman
You did your whole big thing last night, then you spent all night with the surgeons, and then you just rolled up right here with these. Yeah.
Crushette
I love to get groups together. I love to talk to people.
Scott Aukerman
I.
Crushette
It's my favorite thing in this whole.
Scott Aukerman
World, though, that you maybe have a fear of being alone. No, really?
Crushette
No.
Scott Aukerman
You. You. You. You seemed. I don't want shaken by them. Rattled. No, no, no. How. What. What percentage of the day are you just alone?
Crushette
What's another exercise we can do, Boy?
Scott Aukerman
I mean, you're the one who knows the exercises.
Crushette
Okay, listen, I don't have a lot of alone time. I. I go home to my roommates and we all hang.
Scott Aukerman
How many roommates do you have?
Crushette
I have 14 roommates.
Scott Aukerman
14? That's a lot of roommates. What kind of estate are you living?
Crushette
House in the hills.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Crushette
It's kind of like.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Is this the American Apparel house?
Scott Aukerman
Yes.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, my God.
Crushette
Yeah, we all wear a lot of tights.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
So fun.
Crushette
Yeah, it's really fun. We're models.
Bill Walton
What makes it the American Apparel house? Does Dov Charney own it?
Crushette
Yes.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. And then the great thing about it is I think you can have sex anytime you want.
Crushette
That's right.
Bill Walton
And I'm in one of those houses where you can't do that.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, no. You gotta get in a sex.
Scott Aukerman
That's not by choice, actually.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, neither is this.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay.
Crushette
No, but I really got my experience living in a house like this from the fraternity.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Crushette
When we lived in, we all lived in. We slept in a cold dorm or a warm dorm. Did you have this?
Scott Aukerman
Is that like hot yoga and regular yoga.
Crushette
It's like you ch. We all slept in one big room.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay.
Crushette
And you can either choose the hot room or the cold room. And so you all sleep in there.
Scott Aukerman
Depending on if you sleep warm or if you stay open. If you sleep warm, you can choose which one. How many people choose? The hot room?
Crushette
50.
Scott Aukerman
50% or 50 people. Oh, okay.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
And then is it only one person in the cold room and that's why it's cold?
Crushette
No, there are 50 people in there too.
Scott Aukerman
So it's even split.
Crushette
You keep the windows open in which room? In the winter.
Bill Walton
This current house sounds incredible. I, of course, am happily married to my wife, who is currently exploring other people. But I am fine monogamously, so I won't need the sex all the time. But I'd love to move into this American Apparel house. I've said, look, I hate the guy dove Charney, but ever since he left that place, I can't find a goddamn good hoodie anywhere.
Crushette
Right, that used to be.
Scott Aukerman
So those zip ups.
Crushette
Yes, come on, come on. Those zip ups sound good.
Bill Walton
So soft. So cough. I keep telling the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater, if you don't bring that hoodie back, I'm not doing shows here. You're not doing shows already here. And then I go to Birds and I order a nice dry lavash and a wet bean soup.
Crushette
What's a dry lavash?
Scott Aukerman
It comes standard there.
Bill Walton
It comes standard? Yeah. You just say that. Get me the chicken. And it's that you probably thought that it was some sort of brillo pad or something on the side of your plate, but it's the bread that comes next to your chicken.
Scott Aukerman
People who live in one part of LA are loving this.
Bill Walton
Everyone, I tell you, everyone, they want to see comedy. And then they go to Birds because they're like, I keep hearing about this dry lavash on Comedy Bang Bang. I have to try it. And it's like, you can, but the security guard's gonna put his hand on your lower back every once in a while.
Crushette
Oh, I met him last night.
Bill Walton
Oh, yeah. Okay, yeah, let that go.
Scott Aukerman
You still have the handprint on your back.
Crushette
Yeah. He really got on there.
Bill Walton
I hope he got by behind you. Even though there was a ton of space.
Crushette
Yeah, no, there was a ton of space, but the surgeons were. They beat him up for me.
Bill Walton
Oh, man, I wish I had. My crew won't. We're all pacifists.
Crushette
Yeah, sure.
Bill Walton
So we try to do peaceful. I'm sorry. I need some team building here.
Crushette
Yes. Oh, my God, I would love it.
Bill Walton
Me. E keeps changing my volume on my headphones. I think she thinks she's changing hers and it's really making me pissed off.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
No, no, no, no. I definitely knew what I was doing.
Crushette
Okay. I have a.
Scott Aukerman
You turning him down or up?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Bill Walton
I thought I'd go crazy for a second.
Crushette
I have amazing work through for this.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Okay.
Crushette
Does anyone have a potato sack?
Scott Aukerman
I have about 12 over there in the corner.
Crushette
Okay, well, we're gonna get you guys in one potato sack, and you're gonna hop from one side of the room to the other. Okay.
Bill Walton
In the same sack.
Crushette
In the same sack.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
One leg in this.
Crushette
No, both legs in one sack. Yeah, I have an extra wide sack in sack.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I don't know if I feel like he has a lot of sack experience, and I don't know that I don't have that much sack.
Scott Aukerman
He's got hacky sack experience.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I don't know what I'm saying.
Bill Walton
I've got all sack experience, half hacky sack, love sack, ball sack. I've been all around.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
See, I don't have a ball sack, so.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. Yeah. Well, previously established on the show.
Crushette
Him talk about sack and you relate.
Scott Aukerman
Get in the sack.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, my God.
Lotto Bosco
Hold on.
Scott Aukerman
Let me write this.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I got to write this.
Crushette
Get in the sack.
Scott Aukerman
Get in the sack.
Crushette
Get in the sack.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
He went face first. How am I supposed to.
Bill Walton
Why are we doing face to foot?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, there's no crotch. I'll stand.
Scott Aukerman
Get in the sack. 69.
Crushette
69. Sack.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
All right. It's early, but. Okay.
Crushette
And you guys are going to wait.
Scott Aukerman
Getting in the sack.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Here we go. I want to make sure I get asked back for a fourth time here.
Scott Aukerman
They're both in the sack. What do you want them to do now?
Crushette
They're going to hop from one side to the other side of the.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
So it looks like.
Crushette
And we're gonna cheer.
Scott Aukerman
Your feet are out, Bill. So maybe.
Bill Walton
So I'll hop against gravity.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. You need to turn upside down, Emmy, so that.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
No, no, I stand upright. He's gotta hold his hands on, like, my kind of waist above. So we're crotch to crotch.
Bill Walton
I don't wanna do any improprieties here. I will do my hands around your waist, but not touching it the way Keanu Reeves takes photos with women.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, so you're just gonna hold your hands up so they're visible the entire time.
Bill Walton
Yes, yes, yes.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I appreciate that.
Crushette
Okay, now get to hopping.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Okay, here we go.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, fuck.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Fucking those. We're almost there. Keep going.
Bill Walton
Wow.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I actually really like this. This feels good.
Crushette
Me, me, me. Thank you.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
More cheering.
Crushette
Yay.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I feel like we did it, you guys.
Scott Aukerman
How you Doing?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
You were not fucking lying about that nosebleed. But you know, that is a lot of blood that.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, my. My studio covered with blood, right?
Lotto Bosco
Yeah.
Bill Walton
I'm sorry about that. If you have a tissue somewhere, I could use a tissue.
Scott Aukerman
I don't have any tissue. All these potato sacks.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
So many meat.
Bill Walton
Could I use the eggs? I don't know.
Crushette
But can I lift one thing up? Oh, that. You stopped thinking about the drama. You stopped thinking about who was changing the audio.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
We actually really did.
Scott Aukerman
How do you guys feel about each other right now?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Tepid.
Bill Walton
Do we say? Is it a one word answer?
Scott Aukerman
You can do two or three.
Crushette
Two or three or seven.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Not more than seven.
Bill Walton
More than seven?
Crushette
No, not more, please.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, Try to keep it to seven. Try to keep it to seven.
Bill Walton
Sucker.
Scott Aukerman
What?
Crushette
Wow.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Are you possessed like in the Exorcist? What's happening?
Bill Walton
I was doing George Carlin. Seven words you can't say on tv. And I don't know if pace is one of them. Look, I do feel a little closer. My face really hurts. I will say I feel like I lost. I don't even. I feel like the end of the movie old where the couple who was having affair against each other got so old and they said, we don't even remember what we were fighting about.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, wow, that's beautiful. In the movie old, it was beautiful.
Crushette
This is sounding like you're glommed.
Scott Aukerman
You guys are glommed.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
This is how glom feels.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
We're really coagulating. Yes, Unlike your nose.
Scott Aukerman
Incredible. Now, you and I weren't in the sack together, so I still say you.
Bill Walton
You'll never be in the sack with me.
Scott Aukerman
You, you, me, me, me, me.
Bill Walton
You stick around, Bill, for the duration.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay, Great. We need to take a break. Crochet. Very good team building. Thank you very much.
Crushette
I'm honored.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I'm honored.
Crushette
Built this house.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. I don't think you built anything. You just kind of glommed everything together. But you could maybe change yourself to a team glommer expert or something.
Crushette
Okay, I'll change my website right now.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. Wow.
Bill Walton
Very adept. She's on Canva. She's doing the whole.
Scott Aukerman
Well, we need to take a break. When we come back, we have a standup comedian just to lighten the mood a little bit. Thank God.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Very tense here, but looks like we also.
Crushette
They have an amazing bagel bar at Scientology center after this, if we want to hit up.
Scott Aukerman
You don't need to tell me. Let's all go.
Crushette
Yeah, we don't have to Sign up for anything. We just go in.
Scott Aukerman
You can sign up, though, if you want.
Crushette
You can if you want.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, great.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
We should hop over in your potato socks.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. That would be so fun. They wouldn't know what to do with us. Yeah, these guys are too weird for us. All right, we're going to take a break. When we come back, we're going to have more Mary Elizabeth Ellis, more Bill Walton, more crochet and a standup comedian. We're going to be right back with more comedy.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Bang, bang after this.

Comedy Bang Bang. We're back. Mary Elizabeth Ellis. A man on the inside is back for season two on this Thursday, and we're at a commute community college. Is he a professor there? What is he. What's he up to?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
He is. Yeah. He's pretending to be a professor.
Scott Aukerman
Of what?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Architectology.
Scott Aukerman
Architectology. Okay. Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Okay.
Scott Aukerman
Well, this sounds like a dynamite show. Plus, we have Bill Walton who's trying to sell Entourage with the aunts.
Bill Walton
Yes.
Scott Aukerman
And I guess auditioning for other shows in order to get his foot in the door.
Bill Walton
If I can. I feel like the best way to sell a TV show is to. To audition for series regulars on other shows.
Scott Aukerman
Sure. We also have. Crushette is here. A team glomming expert.
Crushette
That's right.
Scott Aukerman
That's right. You've changed the website. I noticed. Thank you so much. This is gorgeous.
Crushette
Did you see that I work with Dave's hot chicken last night?
Scott Aukerman
Oh, you did? Dave's hot chicken last night. Was this before the surgeons?
Crushette
It was before the surgeons, but we all met out.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay. Yeah, I've noticed their website now says Dave's mild chicken. Did you. Is that something you did?
Crushette
Yeah. I thought we don't want to be too.
Scott Aukerman
Don't want to be too hot. Yeah, that's. It's keeping me away, honestly, from eating at Dave's.
Crushette
Yeah, I don't want to. Not everybody wants hot.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, that's what I always say about chicken. Not everyone wants hot. I hate going to a chicken place that doesn't even say they're hot.
Crushette
Do you want to burn yourself?
Scott Aukerman
Yes.
Crushette
Who wants to do that?
Scott Aukerman
No, thank you.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Not on chicken.
Scott Aukerman
What?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Do you want to burn yourself on a stove?
Crushette
You want that?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I mean, sometimes it makes you feel alive.
Scott Aukerman
That's right.
Bill Walton
Absolutely. If you're not touching a hot stove once every once in a while just to know that you're alive, how are you going to appreciate that?
Scott Aukerman
Appreciate the times that you're not burned? You know, with a third degree burn.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
If you don't exactly. Gratitude practice.
Scott Aukerman
Exactly. Well, we need to get to our next guest. This is exciting. He's a standup comedian here to lighten the mood a little bit. Please welcome, for the first time on the show, Lotto Bosco.

Yeah, I've been in the game for a long time. I love babies. And I got a big old show at the Mall of America. I gotta sell Tippets, baby.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. Out there in Minnesota.
Bill Walton
Yeah.
Lotto Bosco
You ever been seen a comedy club inside of the mall?
Scott Aukerman
I. I have, yes. Nick Swartzen said it was a good club.
Lotto Bosco
Yeah. I'm performing right next to it in the world of socks, brother.
Scott Aukerman
The world of socks?
Lotto Bosco
Yeah, baby. Every type of sock you imagine. Think of a socks gotta.
Scott Aukerman
Some short.
Lotto Bosco
Got it. Go ahead. Think of any other type of.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I was thinking tall, knee length. Yeah.
Crushette
The. With the little curls on the edges.
Lotto Bosco
You better believe ruffles. Yeah, you better believe that the world is going to have a little bit of ruffles when a lot of bus go make a joke.
Scott Aukerman
What about socks? Had pictures of ruffles potato chips, but not actual ruffles on the.
Lotto Bosco
Let me go on Google potato. Oh, S A I. So it's quicker for me. Yeah, they got that up in there, baby.
Scott Aukerman
They got that up in there.
Lotto Bosco
Big.
Bill Walton
That was the AI answer. What about that?
Lotto Bosco
Big. It said big time.
Crushette
They said big time on the site.
Lotto Bosco
Hey, I programmed my chat. You know how you can train your chat GPT to talk to you how you like?
Crushette
Yeah.
Lotto Bosco
I train mine to only say big time.
Scott Aukerman
How often does it say big time then? 90% of the time.
Lotto Bosco
100% of the time.
Scott Aukerman
I don't know if I would trust the information coming out of that.
Lotto Bosco
Well, a lot of things that I thought were true actually are not. And a lot of things that I didn't think happened are happening.
Scott Aukerman
Wow. It's like Gabe Liedman being one of our most. Yes. Oh, I thought you raised your hand. You're just raising. You're raising the microphone stand, right?
Bill Walton
Oh, yeah.
Scott Aukerman
But you're so tall that when you reach up to something, it acts all the time.
Bill Walton
I'm always answering questions that I don't have the answer to, but I'm usually just raising my microphone stand.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Well, what are you in school for currently? Yeah.
Bill Walton
Oh, I am taking pre calc.
Scott Aukerman
Post cal as well.
Bill Walton
Right. And post calc. And I'll tell you what, you just.
Scott Aukerman
Want to work around the edges.
Crushette
What about present calc?
Bill Walton
It's. I had a lot of trouble. Stay. I had to drop it. I couldn't stay Present. Yeah.
Lotto Bosco
Okay. That's reminding me. Okay. And this could.
Scott Aukerman
Yes. A lot of boss.
Lotto Bosco
I've been in the game for a long time, so I have a Bit about any type of thing. And I have a mathematics joke if you guys want to hear.
Scott Aukerman
You have a what joke? Mathematics joke. Oh, okay.
Lotto Bosco
Okay. When seven walk into the club to have a little party with number nine. Why? How come number eight felt so alone?
Scott Aukerman
Is this a variation on the seven, eight, nine?
Crushette
They weren't glommed.
Lotto Bosco
Because, big time, I do have to confess something.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, this is a big. This. I feel like Usher here. There's so many confessions.
Crushette
Like, we're on the Bachelor at this point.
Lotto Bosco
Chad GPT is writing the punch lines, and I write the setups to the jokes.
Scott Aukerman
You got to do that the reverse way.
Lotto Bosco
Have chat bgt write the setup and me. Right, yeah. Let me try.
Scott Aukerman
Honestly, that one didn't really make a lot of sense.
Lotto Bosco
Okay, let me try one.
Scott Aukerman
It just said big time, which you've trained to your chat GP to say.
Lotto Bosco
It got me a setup. Now let me try this one. Big time. Women are different than men.
Scott Aukerman
Okay? This, I mean, this is fertile ground for comedy.
Lotto Bosco
I don't think.
Scott Aukerman
I don't think I've ever heard anything.
Lotto Bosco
Yeah, baby.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. In what ways are the difference?
Lotto Bosco
Okay, let's find that out right now.
Scott Aukerman
You're entering it into chat.
Lotto Bosco
Well, I'm typing in. Give me the setup for how different are men from women?
Scott Aukerman
This is the punchline, but yeah, go, Scott.
Bill Walton
Kind of. Did that work for you?
Lotto Bosco
Okay, let me see if I got this right, because I've been in the game for a long, long time. How long?
Scott Aukerman
Always how long? Can I ask what you say? A long time. But that could mean anything because, like, in the. In the course of human history, that's, you know, just a blip.
Lotto Bosco
Okay? So in terms of human history to 45 years old. I'm 45 years old.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Lotto Bosco
And I did my first joke when I came out of my mummy. Oh, really?
Scott Aukerman
What was that joke? Do you remember?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I want to know.
Lotto Bosco
And the DACA says, oh, sounds like we got a case of this baby is funny.
Bill Walton
With the diagnosis.
Lotto Bosco
Yeah, he diagnosed me with other stuff as well, but I don't talk about that.
Scott Aukerman
What's going on? Do you still have any of it or.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes, I would think so.
Lotto Bosco
Yes.
Bill Walton
I'll tell you this. I am very curious about any someone that says that they're a stand up. I say you're taking a huge, huge risk. You know, you're doing something honorable.
Crushette
It's the most vulnerable.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, Brave space.
Crushette
We're mind meld. We just said vulnerable.
Scott Aukerman
Yes. Vulnerable. Yes.
Lotto Bosco
Yeah, you learn all about my Melb. If you do improv comedy and 90% of my set.
Crushette
Your Mel.
Lotto Bosco
If you do my Mel, get it through your head, if you do my Mel, you're gonna be able to work that into your set at the World of Sound Thoughts. So I do a lot of my Mel being in my set. Some people do crowd work. I say, excuse me, miss, say a word after.
Crushette
Can we try it?
Lotto Bosco
Yeah. This will be an example of my crow work.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Let's do it.
Lotto Bosco
One, two, three.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Lotto Bosco
I don't think it was pretty funny though. Right? That's not bad.
Scott Aukerman
And use a big time time.
Lotto Bosco
And ass.
Scott Aukerman
It did make me laugh, but I don't know why.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It didn't make me laugh that much. But I do feel like if I was surrounded by socks, I would have found it. Yes, yes. So that's something you probably work into your.
Lotto Bosco
Oh, 90. The other 90% of my standup comedy, that's not my melane big time. It's going to be about SOPs.
Bill Walton
Okay, can I ask the life of a touring stand up?
Scott Aukerman
Oh yeah, it sounds like he's touring. Sounds like he's playing one venue.
Lotto Bosco
Yeah, I tour a lot, but.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay.
Lotto Bosco
I have to go to my car to drive home.
Bill Walton
Okay.
Crushette
That's the tour?
Lotto Bosco
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
What were you gonna ask Bill?
Bill Walton
Well, it's a lonely life. Even if you're just going to this show into your car, you know, you end up. People think you're so gregarious. Cause you talk in front of an audience, but at the end of the day you're all alone and people have to accept that. What's your family life like?
Lotto Bosco
Okay, so I got a couple of kids and I bring them with me for all of my comedy shows.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Crushette
This is the audience baby.
Lotto Bosco
They are all babysitters. I only invite babysitters.
Scott Aukerman
You only invite babysitters to your show? Do you have to pay them all? This sounds like expensive.
Lotto Bosco
Probably losing a lot of money. That's why I'm on the show. I gotta get some people that aren't babysitters or if you are a babysitter, just buy a ticket still because I only need two babysitters, one for each boy.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Bill Walton
I remember Scott and I went to the comedy mothership when we were touring Texas and I remember leaning over and saying the laughs are here, but I'm missing some sort of paternal element inside of me and I can't laugh as hard.
Scott Aukerman
I wish I was being sat by some sort of a babysitter.
Bill Walton
Yes, exactly, exactly.
Lotto Bosco
Well then you, Bobby, gotta come to the world of sats. Where I'm gonna play my man with two babysitters for about a tight five hours.
Bill Walton
Five hours.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, okay. That's not tight. That's a loose five.
Lotto Bosco
Right. When the timer goes off, I say bye. Okay.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Just. Bye.
Bill Walton
I will come with you. World of Socks. If you do have. I think I bled all over me's Ruth Bader Ginsburg socks knee high. So I love those.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Thank you.
Lotto Bosco
If they have those, then, yeah, they do. And I get for payment from World of Socks, my cut is that I get one copy of every single SOP Baby.
Scott Aukerman
That's a lot of socks.
Lotto Bosco
When you've been in the game this long, you get one copy of every sock from World of Socks and you're.
Scott Aukerman
Only paying 50 babysitters for five hours.
Lotto Bosco
If I'm lucky.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
And you only have two children or you only get sitters for the boys.
Lotto Bosco
I reach out to all babysitters in our Facebook and I say I need to show up if you are ready. And then around 50 show up and I have to pay them. Two are on the clock and they play my melt with me and the other 48 people there. Just have a wonderful time, baby.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I feel like I totally understand.
Scott Aukerman
I understand what's happening.
Crushette
I don't know sock shopping happening during the show.
Lotto Bosco
Oh, yeah, it's loud. I gotta compete with a lot of babies.
Crushette
A lot of transactions.
Lotto Bosco
Well, the problem is that a lot of mothers see a post for babysitters, and so they're coming and they're leaving the children for babysitters too. They're leaving their kids while they go somewhere else.
Scott Aukerman
You're being taken advantage of. You're paying 50 babysitters to babysit the entire neighborhood.
Lotto Bosco
But I get one copy of each sock.
Scott Aukerman
How many socks do they.
Lotto Bosco
They sell 100.
Scott Aukerman
So you get. Are you just getting one sock or are you getting the pair?
Lotto Bosco
They.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
He's getting a copy.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Do you mean like a. Like a. A sheet of paper that they print out a picture? Xerox.
Lotto Bosco
They print out a Xerox picture of one of the socks.
Bill Walton
Okay.
Lotto Bosco
And they say if you sell 100 tickets, you get a picture of the other sock.
Scott Aukerman
Okay.
Lotto Bosco
That otherwise they keep it in a stick haircut.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. This is a bad deal. I have to say, Lotto Bosco. The. You're. You're getting taken advantage of by the entire community.
Lotto Bosco
I think that you might be right.
Scott Aukerman
I think. I think we are right.
Crushette
I mean, I think I think we are right.
Lotto Bosco
I can't be asking Chat PPT how to do stuff no more no, no.
Scott Aukerman
Is it Chat GPT or Chappy GPT? Because this is very different thing. If it's a little robot, I use.
Lotto Bosco
A little guy named Chap. Gbb.
Scott Aukerman
I was wondering what Chappie was up to since that movie.
Bill Walton
So, you know, last I heard from him, he had a book.
Scott Aukerman
Really?
Bill Walton
That's what he says in the movie. Chappie has a book.
Scott Aukerman
Scott hasn't seen. You'll. I'll have to take your word for it. Bill, do you want to come on. Scott hasn't seen and watch Chappie with me.
Bill Walton
It is one of the all time great movies featuring the man and woman from D antwerd as two unlikely parents of a robot.
Scott Aukerman
And for this reason, I'm out.
Bill Walton
Okay, okay. What about you, Mr. Wonderful? But I was gonna ask Scott you. I mean, and really get your thoughts together.
Scott Aukerman
Go ahead.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, you brought up Chappie. Don't bring up Chappie and expect him to keep talking.
Bill Walton
Oh, my God.
Scott Aukerman
Now you're just thinking about Chap. I literally see a thought bubble above your head and there's a picture of Chappie in there.
Bill Walton
Isn't that right next to Hugh Jackman with a mullet and little shorts, which is his outfit in the movie.
Scott Aukerman
I'm back in, by the way.
Bill Walton
And I think mee and I'm not sure about you as a team builder, but I know you two have connections to the comedy world. And I really think that what this man needs is just a show at a legitimate club.
Crushette
This is going to be my pitch. What do you think about moving to la? Working on your set here? I have team built for the Comedy Store. I have team built for uc. I have team built cedar surgeons. I have ins for you. You can live at the American Apparel house. There are so many babysitters.
Lotto Bosco
Well, I have a surprise for you. I already live in la.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
You're commuting?
Scott Aukerman
Basketball of America.
Lotto Bosco
It's only one show a week.
Scott Aukerman
Are you driving or flying?
Crushette
The whole driving?
Scott Aukerman
Driving. So it takes you what, three days to get there?
Lotto Bosco
24 hour drive.
Scott Aukerman
24 hours.
Lotto Bosco
But I do it in one shot.
Scott Aukerman
Okay. Hopefully it's a waymo and not your driving.
Lotto Bosco
It's a waymo, baby. Big time. When you've been in the game as long as me, you get a waymo to Minnesota for once a week to.
Scott Aukerman
Pay 50 babysitters for a Xerox. 100 Xeroxes of one sock.
Lotto Bosco
That's the game, baby. I don't know, but yeah, that sounds incredible. Already live here, so that'll Be easy.
Crushette
So you want to just move on in? We have. We had one girl just move out because she got a job in Hawaii.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, I. God, I. I thought you were going to say the Mall of America. I was going to be so excited you would have someone to ride with.
Crushette
There was a girl who got a job at Mall America babysitting.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Wait a minute. What?
Crushette
Is Tiff one of your babysitters?
Lotto Bosco
Bedtime, baby. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Does she know how to do mind meld?
Crushette
Yes, I do. With them every morning.
Lotto Bosco
I think that we might be thinking of the same lady named Tiff who drives to Mala of America.
Scott Aukerman
This is.
Bill Walton
That was a mind meld in a way.
Lotto Bosco
In a way, I think my comedy's cured, baby.
Scott Aukerman
Meaning you don't have to do stand up comedy anymore.
Lotto Bosco
I quit.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, wow. Oh, that's.
Scott Aukerman
I mean, that's a successful episode of Comedy Bang Bang where whoever comes on quits their job at the end of an episode. I gotta say, it kind of feels.
Bill Walton
Like what your ultimate goal has been this whole time.
Scott Aukerman
I mean, honestly, it feels like everyone who comes on the show with a job is bad at their job. No, they all should be.
Bill Walton
I don't.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, Pressing company. I don't want to, of course, cruise sh.
Bill Walton
I don't want to drop these good vibes, but I felt like I was getting that free room in the house. And now this fucker comes in, in here and immediately scoops me. And it's like, yet again, old Billy Boy, the nicest guy around, finishes last. I feel like Stanley Ipkiss.
Scott Aukerman
Who's Stanley Ipkiss again?
Bill Walton
Jim Carrey's character in the Mask, by the way.
Scott Aukerman
Jim Carrey, A guy who went to the bathroom in one of his movies. Did he not?
Lotto Bosco
Wait, does not want to go in there or.
Bill Walton
Which one are you thinking?
Scott Aukerman
I'm thinking of Ace Ventura, where he says, do not go in.
Bill Walton
Oh, you're right.
Crushette
Wow.
Bill Walton
But he lied about going to the bathroom. If we're being.
Scott Aukerman
That's a good point. But Jeff Daniels. Yeah, Jeff Daniels does actually go in. Dumb and dumb.
Crushette
That's true.
Bill Walton
Scott Arcman, I can give you, for $95 a photo of Jeff Daniels on the toilet. And Dumb and Dumber legs out screaming, and she let me and the boys have fun.
Scott Aukerman
You just took a picture of the.
Bill Walton
TV screen because it was so awesome. I was like, I need this on a wall.
Scott Aukerman
It's not even like a press photo or anything.
Bill Walton
I don't. Oh. Oh, you. What do you want me to pay fucking big Getty for that?
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. I need Balthazar Getty to get a little money from that.
Bill Walton
Not gonna happen. But I feel like I was lied to by you. You promised me a room and then you immediately offered it to this comedian.
Crushette
Check the tape. I don't think I promised you anything.
Scott Aukerman
Can we check the tape? Let's rewind.
Bill Walton
Way of water. You went back too far.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, let's fast forward a little bit.
Bill Walton
Can I stay in the house?
Scott Aukerman
Sure.
Bill Walton
Yep.
Scott Aukerman
It's right there.
Crushette
Oh, shoot. Okay.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I didn't remember it that way either.
Scott Aukerman
I do. Look, memory is a tricky thing. Is like the Berenstein Bears. Have you heard that guy?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
In what way?
Crushette
The Berenstein Bears.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. Have you heard of that guy? Mandela?
Crushette
Yeah, right.
Lotto Bosco
Nelson Mandela.
Scott Aukerman
Well, Lotto, you no longer have to be a standup comedian. What are you gonna do with your time in la?
Crushette
Great question.
Lotto Bosco
Well, you promised me that you would take me to ucb.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yes, she does a lot of chicken places.
Scott Aukerman
Maybe you can be a new doorman at Birds. How? Let me see you try to grasp the back of Crochet's lower back. Ouch.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, nope.
Bill Walton
That's good.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Not a good job.
Lotto Bosco
I like that. That's good.
Crushette
Team building expert later today at Big O Tires. Would you want to be my intern?
Lotto Bosco
Be your intern? And T people had a glom at a tire store.
Scott Aukerman
Big O Tires.
Lotto Bosco
Do I get tires?
Crushette
Maybe pictures of tires?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Maybe.
Bill Walton
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Xerox.
Crushette
At least copies.
Lotto Bosco
Sounds like we're about to answer at the same time. Time. One, two, three.
Crushette
Can't wait.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, and I supposed judges. I would have thought Big time.
Lotto Bosco
I'm done with bedtime. I'm never asking Chappie for anything anymore.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, poor Chappie.
Lotto Bosco
Yep, he's fired.
Bill Walton
He'll find his way out. He always does. No spoilers.
Scott Aukerman
We gotta watch this film.
Bill Walton
Oh, Scotty too hottie. I can't wait, brother.
Scott Aukerman
Chappie. Ah, little robot.
Bill Walton
It's a big robot.
Scott Aukerman
Is he a big robot? I always imagine him like Wally. I'm thinking of Wally.
Bill Walton
You're thinking. Yeah.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Or short circuit. Johnny Five is alive.
Bill Walton
Yeah, Chappie definitely is. Standing on the shoulders of giants vis a vis Johnny 5. And Wally.
Scott Aukerman
Wally was after Chappie though, wasn't he?
Bill Walton
Really?
Scott Aukerman
I have no idea. We're gonna settle this on Scott hasn't seen.
Bill Walton
I believe Scott Ninja and Yolandi have a lawsuit on their hand.
Crushette
I have a question about Scott hasn't seen. Have you watched Sleeper?
Scott Aukerman
I have. Yes. Another robot in that one.
Crushette
But there's a robot in that One. Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Pleasure Robot, isn't it?
Crushette
Yes. Orgasmatron.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. But you bring that up because you just wanted to ask me about Woody Allen. Is that right?
Crushette
Yeah, it's my favorite.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
There's also a don't love his work.
Scott Aukerman
Love him as a person.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Orgasm Robot and Barbarella. No, they put her inside, like an orgasm.
Crushette
Which one came first?
Scott Aukerman
Barbarella is in 69, I believe. Up top. Thank you.
Bill Walton
Smack, smack. Throw it down one time.
Scott Aukerman
Scott ankerman, sleeper in 78. Am I getting these dates right?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I think so, yeah. Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
I did watch Barbarella for Scottish.
Bill Walton
You sound like me on a first date.
Scott Aukerman
Am I getting these dates right?
Bill Walton
Yes. Likes it.
Scott Aukerman
Barbara's in 1968.
Lotto Bosco
By the way, you should be a standup comedian.
Bill Walton
Oh, I tried it. I tried it.
Scott Aukerman
Sleepers in 1973.
Bill Walton
You were five years off.
Crushette
So he stole the idea?
Scott Aukerman
I think so.
Crushette
I don't like him anymore.
Scott Aukerman
You don't like Woody Allen anymore?
Crushette
No, he stole it.
Scott Aukerman
Oh. Just when he got funding for his next project.
Crushette
I don't like him.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
That was the final straw. That's it. Oh, he's thinking about Chappie again.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, now he's thinking about Chappie. And dissolved into Chappie on a spit, being roasted over an open flame.
Lotto Bosco
You're thinking about eating Chappie Like Chappie.
Bill Walton
What can I say? Gobble gobbles. Got a gobble gobble.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Hold it back.
Crushette
I can't wait for Thanksgiving.
Scott Aukerman
I cannot wait. But unfortunately, we do have to. We are running out of time, guys. I'm so sorry. But, Lotto Bosco, thank you so much for being here. I'm so glad you quit your job. It sounds like a nightmare for you.
Bill Walton
Yeah.
Scott Aukerman
Thank you, Scott, baby, but we are running out of time. We only have time for one final feature on the show, and that is, of course, a little something called plugs. It's time to open the plug. So let us know what you got going on.
Lotto Bosco
And ain't it funny how nobody seems.
Scott Aukerman
To understand that Scotty has but one day, Man. Keep it short. All right. That was Keep it Short by Night sobs. N I T E SOBS Sounds like a real band who probably has a. An actual career out there going, you know, maybe appearing in the Mall of America.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, we'll get them to quit, too.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, hope so. What are we plugging? Mary Elizabeth Ellis.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I'm plugging A Man on The Inside, Season 2, airing Nov. 20 on Netflix.
Scott Aukerman
And also people can watch it after that, though.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah, watch it forever and ever. It's on Netflix.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah. But if they miss it on the 20th, like they can pick it back up on the 20th.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Yeah. Pop back in, binge it yourself. Bring your family in, binge it with your family.
Scott Aukerman
Although if they could all watch it on separate TVs to get the numbers.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Up, that would be great.
Bill Walton
Yeah. Open. Oh, go ahead.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I just was gonna invite people with Nielsen boxes to really watch because that.
Scott Aukerman
Would gotta know what you were gonna follow this up with. You ever open one?
Bill Walton
Oh, do you ever open Netflix and just look at that top 10 and see where you are in it?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Oh, yeah.
Bill Walton
Yeah. And just smile always right there. What's the number? That is exciting. And what's if you're eight, are you like, ah, bummer. Eight's still pretty good.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
As long as I'm in the top 10, ready to go. Just that beautiful, beautiful face of Ted Danson.
Scott Aukerman
You're gonna be in that top 10. I mean, squid game. The challenge is out.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
We were in the top 10 for a real long time last year.
Bill Walton
That's true.
Scott Aukerman
It was a huge hit.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
People like something nice. They just want something nice.
Scott Aukerman
Yeah, everyone's nice on that show.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Everyone's so nice. So watch that show.
Scott Aukerman
Even the bad guys are nice.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Even the bad guys are nice. And then I'm plugging something else.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, what do you got?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I wrote and directed a short film.
Scott Aukerman
Whoa.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It was very expensive.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, no.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
I know. Short films are really expensive, you guys. FYI. Heads up. Anyway, it's on Vimeo. And so if you search Mary Elizabeth Ellis on Vimeo, it's called Last to Listen leave. And I would please like people to go watch that as well.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, how short are we talking?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Eight minutes. You got eight minutes. It's gonna you up.
Scott Aukerman
It's gonna me up. Okay, I'll go out and watch this. All right. Mary Elizabeth Ellis on Vimeo. And it's called Last to leave.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Last to leave.
Bill Walton
And are the credits in the. In the bio at the bottom or is part of that eight minutes the credits?
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Part of that eight minutes is the credits. I believe this is really like a.
Scott Aukerman
Seven minute film because I can turn.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
It off during the credits. I'm. I should have done my research better. It might be 8. Do your own research and 14 seconds. So look it up, Scott.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, look, I'm looking at how much I made actually.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Chat.
Scott Aukerman
Austin Powers gold member. I still haven't gotten that answer.
Mary Elizabeth Ellis
Chat. GPT says big time, so big time.
Scott Aukerman
Okay, great. And Bill Walton, what are you plugging?
Bill Walton
Well, I guess I'd rather eat a Handful of bees if I had to choose.
Scott Aukerman
Oh, no, we're not playing with you. Rather sorry. No.
Bill Walton
By mistakes, Scott. By mistake. Okay, I guess what I'll plug, like I said, myself and the lovely, gorgeous Mark Rennie every month do an episode of Eat, Pray, Dunk on Comedy Bang Bang World, where we travel the world and try to sell our show Entourage. Recently, we've taken some notes from Scott Aukerman and Brett Morris about how bad the show is, so we're trying to address them.
Scott Aukerman
Good. Oh, I'm glad to hear. Yes, because you sent me back some nap nasty emails. Not nasty, like with anger towards me.
Bill Walton
Just like tub girl Goatsy. I said, I swear to God, this one's not Lemon Party. And then it was Lemon Party. But beyond that, check out the Man Dog Pod podcast. It's an improvident conversation podcast. Check out hey, Randy on the Comedy Bang Bang World. And check out biggrandai website.com to get everything the comedy group Big Grande does a la carte.
Scott Aukerman
All right, Crushette, what do you want to plug?
Crushette

Release Date: November 17, 2025
Host: Scott Aukerman
Guests: Mary Elizabeth Ellis, Dan Lippert (as Bill Walton), Patty Guggenheim (as Crushette), Andres Parada (as Lotto Bosco)
This lively episode of Comedy Bang Bang features host Scott Aukerman welcoming a hilarious, eclectic lineup: actress Mary Elizabeth Ellis (promoting her new season of “A Man on the Inside”), Dan Lippert channeling ex-NBA player and broadcaster Bill Walton, Patty Guggenheim as eccentric “team glomming” expert Crushette, and Andres Parada’s debut as Lotto Bosco, a stand-up comedian with a chaotic approach to comedy and work. The group’s dynamic, riff-heavy conversation bounces from show-business tales and parody pitches to absurdist bits about hacky sack culture, fraternity lore, and the peculiar world of group team-building—and finally, a stand-up act that implodes.
(01:11–14:43)
Celebration & Recap:
Scott reviews Mary’s Comedy Bang Bang history and jokes about the mythical “One-Timers Club,” where only the most successful guests (Paul Rudd, Childish Gambino, Ben Stiller) ascend after never returning.
“You blocked Scott’s phone number. Who’s in the One-Timers Club? Paul Rudd.”
(05:01, Scott & Mary)
"A Man on the Inside" Season Two:
Mary plugs the new season of her Netflix show alongside Ted Danson, recounts the plot (retired man becomes an undercover investigator), fun details about her role and character arcs including grief, parent-child dynamics, and the heart of the show.
“I'm more the heart of the show ... what makes people cry or laugh or remember their own parents.”
(09:45, Mary)
Comedy Banter:
The hosts trade playful blows about showbiz, with recurring riffs on being “too famous to return,” and hypotheticals for show prequels (“Season Zero”), culminating in Scott’s one-man “Fugitive” stage act bit.
(14:02–34:20)
Bill Walton Introduction:
Dan Lippert’s pitch-perfect, surreal Bill Walton discusses basketball, movies, “nosebleed” tickets, and “hacky sack” philosophy—yearning for “no winners, no losers” sports.
The “Hack in the Back” Saga:
Walton tries to convince Scott to let him and his friends (“Trev,” “Big Lair”) use Scott’s backyard for hacky sack. Negotiations spiral from kettlebells (a Joe Rogan head kettlebell for $45) to DoorDash splits, to philosophical debates about competition and role models for children.
“Obstacles are the heart of hack, Scott Aukerman. ... Me and my boys just need two hours to hack in your backyard.”
(20:09, Bill Walton)
Tangents:
(42:33–61:07)
Introduction:
Patty Guggenheim’s Crushette stumbles in after a night of “team building” with LA surgeons, still “out” and covered in glitter. She’s a self-styled “team glomming expert,” primed to resolve the Bill–Scott feud.
Team-Building Exercises:
“Does anyone have a potato sack?... we're gonna get you guys in one potato sack, and you're gonna hop from one side of the room to the other.”
(56:42, Crushette)
Sorority Bonding:
Mary and Crushette realize they’re both “Kappa Kappa Gamma (fraternity)” fake-sisters. Discussion of historical cold/warm dorms, and mass cohabitation at the alleged “American Apparel house” in LA, complete with intrusive security guards and perpetual tights-wearing.
(65:41–82:31)
Character Introduction:
Lotto (Andres Parada) is a blustering “longtime” comic with a gig at the Mall of America’s “World of Socks”—where he literally performs at a sock store.
AI-Written Jokes:
Admits he gives set-ups and lets his customized ChatGPT (which only responds “big time”) do the punchlines, resulting in surreal, nonsensical bits.
“Women are different than men... Big time.” (69:09, Lotto)
Revealing the Bit:
Crowdwork devolves into group mind-meld gibberish (“One, two, three...”), and it’s revealed his “audience” is entirely babysitters for his two kids. In fact, 50 babysitters show up, he pays them, and in return, the sock store gives him Xerox copies of socks he can’t even wear.
Life and Career Choices:
Scott (on celebrity guests):
“One Timers, you know, that's where you want to be, the One Timers Club, because that means you came on the show, whatever you promoted did so well, you got so famous, you never had to— you blocked Scott's phone number.” (05:01)
Mary (on “A Man on the Inside”):
“I'm involved in the case a little, but I'm more the heart of the show...what makes people cry or laugh or remember their own parents.” (09:45)
Bill Walton (on hacky sack philosophy):
“Obstacles are the heart of hack, Scott Aukerman. ... Me and my boys just need two hours to hack in your backyard. We'll be as quiet as a mouse.” (20:09)
Scott (on movies):
“You also have to every scene start with the main character coming from the bathroom and then end the scene with them going into the bathroom...these people never go to the bathroom.” (17:58)
Crushette (on team-building):
“Glomming is when you get together in a group and you really glom up... to gel or to stick or to glue. Have you heard of glue?” (49:31)
Bill Walton (post-sack race):
“I don't even. I feel like the end of the movie Old where the couple who was having affair against each other got so old and they said, ‘we don't even remember what we were fighting about’.” (60:09)
Lotto Bosco (explaining his payment):
“I get one copy of every single SOP Baby. … They print out a Xerox picture of one of the socks. And they say if you sell 100 tickets, you get a picture of the other sock.” (75:03)
Pop Culture Rabbit Holes:
Joyful riffs on “True Lies,” “Avatar” and “Chappie,” TV casting (Bill’s Netflix complaints), infamous movie bathroom scenes, and the historical progression of television from black-and-white to color.
Improvised World-Building:
Endgame:
By episode’s end, harmony is forcibly achieved through physical team-building, Lotto Bosco exits comedy for tire internship, and everyone plans to hit the Scientology Center’s bagel bar, tipsily and in synchronous sack-hopping.
True to Comedy Bang Bang’s tradition, the tone is anarchic, playful, meta, and packed with layered industry satire, “yes and” improvisation, and character-driven absurdity. Each performer riffs in character, turning what could be surreal non sequiturs into surprisingly on-theme meditations about belonging, the nature of success, and the strange joy in collective ridiculousness.
This episode is a quintessential Comedy Bang Bang romp—part showbiz interview, part improv character parade, all densely packed with comedy in-jokes, pop culture mockery, and unstructured chaos. Whether it’s the desperate quest for backyard hacky sack, questionable team-building tactics, or the existential unravelling of a stand-up comic, the episode is less about plot and more about how far the guests’ warped brains can take a simple prompt, ensuring plenty of laughs (and a few “big time” confessions) for fans old and new.
