Summary

The Lonely Island & Seth Meyers Podcast

Episode: Rescue Dog 3D & Relaxation Therapy

Date: April 1, 2026

---

Episode Overview

In this nostalgic and irreverently insightful installment, Seth Meyers teams up once again with The Lonely Island—Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer (Keith), and Jorma Taccone (Yhorm)—to revisit two memorable SNL Digital Shorts: "Rescue Dog 3D" and "Relaxation Therapy." The group dives deep on the creative process, shooting stories, cast memories, and the lingering cultural influence of their Saturday Night Live era. As usual, the conversation is spiked with personal tangents, affectionate roastings, in-jokes, and illuminating side-bars about the comedy business, the ever-changing internet, and behind-the-scenes SNL stories. Plus, competing ALF (Alien Life Form) impressions, stray memories of Bryan Cranston, Jon Hamm voice memos, and a group push-up contest.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Housekeeping & Listener Feedback

• Audio Issues and Quaid Army Backlash

  • Seth apologizes for poor audio quality due to travel, referencing feedback from their loyal fanbase, the “Quaid Army.”
  • Strong distinction made between forgiving YouTube commenters and a more intense subreddit crowd.
    • “The YouTube is more forgiving, I think, is my main takeaway.” – Seth (00:58)

• Children’s Curiosity about SNL and Fame Consequences

  • Seth shares a darkly comic anecdote about his kids worrying that making fun of the President could result in him being ‘grabbed by ICE.’
    • “...if they do, you guys just keep going.” – Seth (01:39)

• Merch, Memes, and Running Gags

  • Hat commentary segues into reflections on logo copyright (LA Dodgers pizza hat), and shirt pranks (“Deez Nets” for the Nets).
  • Seth registers “iwantstrants.com” as a meta-joke to aggregate recommended restaurants (and eventually more).

2. SNL Stories: Fame, Food, and Guests

• Ryan Gosling’s Pop Tart Shout Out & SNL Staff Legends

  • Gosling boosts a local bakery on air, leading to viral attention. Seth marvels at the outsized influence of SNL culture and shout-outs.
    • “Go figure. Ryan Gosling saying, ‘these are the best pop Tarts I’ve ever had’...” – Seth (03:59)

• Comedy Side Effects—Burrito Brain

  • In-jokes about burrito consumption and the mythology they’ve constructed around “Buddy’s Burritos” and its side effects (“burrito brain”).

• Movie Recommendations and Kids

  • Seth and Keith debate the appropriateness of certain classics (e.g., "Liar Liar" and "Bad News Bears") with nine-year-olds.

3. ALF-Off: Jon Hamm vs. Andy Samberg (10:43–14:43, 46:10–47:25)

• Pitching a Reverse ALF Sitcom
  • The guys riff on a sitcom where Andy is the only human among a family of ALFs (“Nalf”).
  • Seth shares that Jon Hamm, self-described “high-ranking member of Quaid Army,” claims he can out-ALF Andy.
    • The podcast airs Hamm’s two voice notes, with the group dissecting his ALF impression, reflecting on the show’s production, and the logistics of “alf improv puppeteering.”
    • “If it’s an ALF off you want, it’s an ALF off you’ll get, Jon Hamm.” – Andy Samberg (46:28)

4. The Power of SNL Digital Shorts: Behind the Scenes

a. Rescue Dog 3D (27:18–36:08)

• Overview:
  • A short by director Jonathan Krisel—Andy plays a man trying to call 911 during a break-in, only to be stuck in a meta “Rescue Dog 3D” marketing app.
• Krisel voice memo:
  • Reflects on tech, marketing, and the absurdity of spammy app integration.
  • “Technology is always getting in bed with marketing departments for stupid movies, and it’s still going on...” – Jonathan Krisel (32:29)
• Key Insights:
  • Noted for its cinematic, almost thriller-like direction contrasted with a ridiculous premise.
  • The cast recalls on-set memories and subtle jokes (e.g., using actual iPhone contacts for the gag, the fun of shooting with silly dog puppets, the violence debate about a “dog puppet arm rip.”)

b. Relaxation Therapy (57:55–61:16)

• Overview:
  • Jane Lynch leads Andy through a dysfunctional guided meditation that becomes increasingly absurd, culminating in physical slapstick.
• Key Moments:
  • The escalation: ice-cream/popsicle innuendo, golf balls, ham sandwiches, and an eventual group groin-kicking.
  • The cast analyses Jane Lynch’s dedication and the beautiful shooting location at Brooklyn Botanical Garden.

c. Bjellen Brothers (Bonus Sketch Revisit) (36:34–45:02)

• Overview:
  • Bryan Cranston and Fred Armisen play faux-rock stars at a sparsely attended concert, milking the gag of a single lyric about sending sparkling apple juice.
  • “Holding the mic out. Silence.” (41:53) – the joy of playing to utter indifference.
• Discussion:
  • Comparison of dress rehearsal vs. aired version—audience “gets the joke” better at dress (silent at singalong cue), while air audience plays along, subtly changing the sketch’s dynamic.
  • Reflections on cast camaraderie (e.g., Bill Hader & Kenan Thompson staying off camera for most of the performance for one reaction shot).

5. Surreal Digressions & Podcast Ephemera

• Boogerman:

  • Extensive riffing on the gross-out Sega Genesis game “Boogerman: A Pick and Flick Adventure,” including live reactions to bizarre videos and 90s ad tropes.
    • “It says ‘fart’ in a cloud of fart.” – Yhorm (17:32)

• Meta-Pod Banter:

  • A running discussion about not wanting to “burn out” the audience on musical shorts versus sketches (“It's more fun when we're just winging it”).
  • Andy's running gag about letting his animated series "Digman" run on Netflix for residuals—“I will gulp you out on the street if you see me. You don’t have to prove it, just let me know.” (55:44)

• Quaid Army Commentary:

  • The cultish fan base continues to provide joke fodder (e.g., “quatience = Quaid patience,” “Qwomp,” “Quapnado.”)

• Physical Comedy On-Air:

  • The group closes with a live push-up contest—debating form, ribbing each other, and leaning into a “manosphere” bit.

Transcript

[Fred Armisen]

The Lonely island and Seth Meyers podcast Shore.

[Seth Meyers]

Hey, what's up, guys? Welcome to another episode of the Lonely island in South Meers podcast.

[Yhorm]

Seth, you sound like shit. You sound like shit, man.

[Seth Meyers]

Okay, let's talk about this first. So here's the thing. My audio is probably gonna be even worse today. I'm on spring break. I did not want to bring all my podcast gear to spring break. I thought last week I got away with it, and a lot of the Quaids noticed my audio was worse, and I apologize. I also heard the subreddit was very angry that we were late, and I feel like there's a different kind of Quaid who comments in the YouTube section versus who comments in the.

[Yhorm]

Cause they know we don't see it real Quade.

[Keith]

But Jeff lurks. Jeff, tell us what they were saying.

[Seth Meyers]

The YouTube is more forgiving, I think, is my main takeaway. Jeff, give us a take on the subreddit.

[Jeff]

I think the main takeaway was people were just mad we didn't put enough social media information out telling them what was going on.

[Seth Meyers]

So that's hardcore on your shoulders, Jeff.

[Jeff]

Yeah, it's mostly my fault.

[Keith]

But we.

[Jeff]

To be fair, we didn't know what was going on, so.

[Keith]

Right.

[Yhorm]

So wait, though, Seth, you sounded like shit, right?

[Seth Meyers]

Yep.

[Yhorm]

Then we got. People got mad about it. And then you learned zero.

[Seth Meyers]

Yep.

[Yhorm]

And here we are again. Great.

[Seth Meyers]

Well, one thing was just, like, not wanting. I already have. Was very stressed about traveling because my children now are sort of hip enough to the world that on our way to spring break, they all said, are you worried that ice is gonna grab you, dad?

[Yhorm]

They should be worried about that.

[Keith]

That's right.

[Seth Meyers]

Genuinely. They were like, because you have made fun of the President, do you think ice will grab you? This is what both of my boys said, genuinely asking. And I said to both of them, like, if they do, you guys just keep going. And the speed. They were like, got it. Like, no, there was not a second. They were like, okay, cool.

[Yhorm]

Let's just pretend we don't know yet.

[Seth Meyers]

It made it very clear that it was about, would it, like, sort of trample on their vacation? Not would dad be black bagged?

[Yhorm]

By the way, when I fell off the ladder, I think that that was the big worry. It was just like, is this going to ruin the birthday party?

[Seth Meyers]

Right.

[Yhorm]

I forgot how much the ponies here. Like, let's not get rid of that. Let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater here.

[Seth Meyers]

I'm also. It does. I feel like it's Even echoey, er than last week. And so I do. I want to just get my apologies out of the way.

[Yhorm]

Well, the Quaid's will tell us if it's echoier.

[Keith]

So, Seth, tell us about your hat. It looks like LA Dodgers, but it's got a pizza. A piece of pizza for the A.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, it was a name of a restaurant in LA called Danny Moyce, and somebody gave it to me. I think it was their restaurant. And the Dodgers basically sued him and said they couldn't use this logo. So the dude was just handing out the hats.

[Keith]

Got it. It's a good hat.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, it's a good hat.

[Yhorm]

You know, when the Nets were first a team, my friend Jake immediately sent me a website to an Adidas sponsored, like, shirt that said Deez Nets. And he was like, we have to

[Will Forte]

buy this before this isn't a thing.

[Yhorm]

Like, there's no way they're gonna get rid of this immediately. And so we have Deez Nets shirts.

[Keith]

That's right.

[Seth Meyers]

Guys, I moved really fast on something last week. I wasn't gonna get scooped again. The minute our podcast was over, I bought iwantstrants.com the new Yelp.

[Keith]

Oh, we're gonna retire on that.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah. Right now it does redirect to the Late Night with Seth Meyers homepage.

[Keith]

That's fine.

[Yhorm]

But we should put reviews up there.

[Seth Meyers]

I mean, I think we'll start doing. You know what? Let's start doing reviews. Speaking of blowing up something by mentioning it. And maybe I'll do that with. I don't know if Danny Boy's Pizza is still serving pizza in la, but that was a n shout out. Ryan Gosling was on my show first time. And there is that wonderful moment, I know we've talked about it, where somebody sits down on my show and they see Wally and they get really excited and sometimes they see Donna and they get even more excited because those are integral people to the host experience at snl. And he said, oh, my God, Donna, have you had. Obviously you've had the pop Tarts from her sister's bakery in Tallahassee, Florida. And I'm like, I didn't even know she had a sister. What are you talking about? Ryan Gosling.

[Yhorm]

It was a great not bit bit like that you did.

[Seth Meyers]

It was great. Not bit bit, but it has blown up. Like, go figure. Ryan Gosling saying, these are the best pop Tarts I've ever had at, like, a bakery. Like, the local news in Tallahassee has already done a story. Like, they're like, slammed it's like, you

[Yhorm]

know who hasn't done any better recently? Who's that? Buddy's burritos.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, really? Nobody.

[Yhorm]

Nobody gives a shit what I think about burritos.

[Keith]

Well, we've. We've been saying that it does have physiological side effects that maybe they don't want. We could pitch Buddy's burrito, come in and get burrito brained. That might work for them. I don't know.

[Seth Meyers]

I feel like we have made burrito Brain seem like a real. Some negative. I think if we made it sound more like, I don't know, like a narcotic people might be.

[Yhorm]

It's just weird that you guys see it that way. Cause for me it's great. You know what I mean? Like, maybe it's cause I'm the guy who's burrito brain, but like, you know, I feel like I'm firing on all cylinder.

[Seth Meyers]

Hey, I saw the movie, the drama, you know, the Zendaya Robert Pattinson movie. So I was watching that movie and the comedian Jeremy Levick shows up for like basically one and a half scenes as a wedding dj and he just talks about the sound equipment he brought. And it's very clearly a scene that you can tell he's improvising. And it's so funny because it's at this incredibly tense moment in the movie and just a dude shows up talking about DJ equipment. And it's really, really.

[Keith]

That sounds great.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, it's a very quiet scene. Stealing performance, very hard to pull off.

[Yhorm]

He's a funny guy.

[Seth Meyers]

Delighted.

[Keith]

Backing up to the cake place in Tallahassee. It's called the Cake Shop Bakery. If we want to give it more press.

[Seth Meyers]

Well, that's. I will.

[Keith]

Do you think now you're going to get some pop Tarts? Finally.

[Seth Meyers]

They already got sent.

[Keith]

They did.

[Seth Meyers]

Already got rectified.

[Keith]

Got it.

[Yhorm]

You should have the sister on. You should have Donna's sister on.

[Seth Meyers]

I should have Donna's sister on. But tell her only if she shouts out project Hail Mary. She's like, look, this is just trying to even the legend.

[Yhorm]

They need it. They need it. By the way, Seth, did you go to the Cause then Ryan, like obviously nicest man on the planet, then invites your entire audience to get on buses and go to the premiere. I was at that premiere.

[Seth Meyers]

Paid for buses.

[Yhorm]

Yeah, but I was at that premiere and I didn't. I. When I didn't know that that bit was happening, that bit that like that nice gesture was happening. Did you go and I just didn't see it.

[Seth Meyers]

I did not Go. I had plans that evening, but they offered. But it was. We have audience giveaways every now and then on our show. There's never been anything quite like, hey, audience, when this is over, you can walk outside. If you so choose, get on a bus and go straight to the premiere of movie.

[Yhorm]

Cool. It was such a nice gesture.

[Keith]

Did they have multiple theaters? How can they fit 300 extra people?

[Yhorm]

It was a big ass theater. It was the IMAX theater. So it was massive. Massive.

[Seth Meyers]

And I can't remember also the last time a non IP movie, you had an awareness that it would be a cool thing to go to a premiere as.

[Yhorm]

Oh, my God, it was so great. It was really fun to see Phil and Chris and all those guys. And oh, man. Also I was really thrilled because everybody who saw me, who hadn't seen me in a while kept being like, wow, look at you. And I was like, it's so nice when the bar is so low.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

Like everyone's like really impressed that I'm standing up.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

Yeah, it was great.

[Seth Meyers]

It's really a nice story.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Seth Meyers]

Keith, we talked a little bit about movies that you can and can't show your kids. Yeah, we did Liar Liar. These are all with Ash, the nine year old only.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Seth Meyers]

Liar Liar, full blast. Talk about another scene. Stealing performance. Steve Carell, when basically Jim Carrey is controlling him when he's doing the news.

[Keith]

Oh, right.

[Seth Meyers]

Worth a rewatch on YouTube. Just incredible Evan.

[Keith]

Truly incredible Evan, who got a spin

[Seth Meyers]

off, who then gets a spinoff movie.

[Keith]

Yeah, not really related. It's. He becomes. He becomes Noah of Noah's Ark. But that's right, it does start totally Evan Almighty.

[Seth Meyers]

And then Ash on Ash's birthday, he was super sick and he was super bummed. And so we watched he loves baseball movies. We watched Bad News Bears, the original with Walter Matthaus, which has like many inappropriate scenes. But it's a really perfect movie minus a few unfortunate word choices. It's a perfect movie. Actual cinema. It's great. I have a few things to say before we get to it. We're going to do two shorts today, but a little cleanup of our last episode.

[Keith]

By the way, the reason we haven't mentioned that Andy's not here is because we are not exactly clear if he's going to pop in or not. Right?

[Yhorm]

Oh, man, I hope he does.

[Keith]

Seeming less. It's seeming less likely now.

[Seth Meyers]

It does seem like we're entering that realm. Oh, somebody said to remember that when you. When you have to wait for a new episode that quaint Chance is a virtue.

[Keith]

Quaintance. Yeah. Patience and qua. Oh, that's quatience.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah. Quatience.

[Keith]

Quatience.

[Seth Meyers]

The d. There's no real room for the d there.

[Keith]

But that's what they should keep in

[Seth Meyers]

mind Instead of getting mad Heist songs. We talked about heist songs. Somebody said we were discussing height songs. The first thing they thought of was ante up. And then when I said it, Although they didn't say seth said it, they go. And then the turbo white said it. And I was so bummed because they realized that they thought they had a cool ref. And then they realized that's the one the turbo white comes up with. Maya is not from the bay. Maya is bae. Curious.

[Yhorm]

That was a comment I really liked that I'd never.

[Seth Meyers]

This one somebody just wrote. I don't know if it's not a palindrome. Might be an anagram. Because we talked about people being bay adjacent. Somebody just wrote bay adjacent adjacent bateman.

[Keith]

Okay.

[Seth Meyers]

Just like sounds. This is. I mean, it's a bummer that andy's not here, but this is a really genuinely good idea for andy. A reverse alf sitcom, which is andy goes to space and crash lands on melmac. And then he lives with a family of alfs.

[Keith]

Oh, that's all alfs.

[Seth Meyers]

Like, so andy's the alf in a family of alfs.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

I think we could make a lot of money on that.

[Seth Meyers]

A lot of money. And he. I guess they're like burritos or pets there. I guess.

[Keith]

Oh, right.

[Yhorm]

Don't.

[Keith]

Andy. Don't eat the burrito.

[Yhorm]

Bunch of square elves. Or is he then square? Is he like a. Like a. An anal human around a bunch of, like, laissez faire elves?

[Keith]

Oh, they're all like that. He's like, get it together, guys. He's like kind of the fun police.

[Seth Meyers]

He's folding the laundry in there. Like, what are you doing?

[Keith]

What are you all doing? On earth, we fold laundry. We don't just leave it in a pile. Do we think that andy's alf show is called not alf?

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, yeah, Yeah. I think it's called not alf.

[Keith]

Yeah, that's really good.

[Seth Meyers]

Now. I think it's called now.

[Keith]

Now.

[Yhorm]

Wouldn't it be?

[Keith]

Well, alien life form is what it is. So not be health.

[Yhorm]

Right. Human life form. Right. So it'd be health.

[Seth Meyers]

But he's alien to them.

[Keith]

Yeah, he's an alien life form.

[Seth Meyers]

But he keeps saying he's not an alien life form. So it's nalf.

[Keith]

Yeah, he's like, no, I'm human. You're all aliens. He can't get it in his head that they flip now.

[Seth Meyers]

Okay, now, one of our highest rankings member of quaid army is Jon hamm, who was disappointed with Andy's alf, and he even texted me. He's like, I'm pretty sure I have a better alf. And I was like, hey, man, send it in. Who's saying no to a voice note?

[Keith]

Did he send you an elf?

[Seth Meyers]

He said two, and I'm really excited because he obviously, I think he had doubts about the first one, and then he sent in a second one. But I'm of course going to play both.

[Keith]

We have no.

[Seth Meyers]

All right, so. So, Jeff, roll the first one.

[Keith]

Honestly, I kind of thought alf sounded a little more like Seth rogan. Maybe I'm just doing Seth Rogen now. Or Seth rogen mixed with Albert Brooks mixed with alf. I don't know, but I feel like that's what he sounded like a little more up there. What do I know?

[Andy]

I don't want to turn this into an alof.

[Keith]

This is pretty good.

[Seth Meyers]

It's really good.

[Yhorm]

All right.

[Keith]

Oh, my God. That was actually surprisingly good. In a moment, though, he went to Rolf, a dog puppet.

[Yhorm]

Ralph. Yes.

[Seth Meyers]

Ye. Oh, right. Which is Seth Rogen Rolfed on snl.

[Keith]

Right. Which makes sense because Rolf and Seth rogen are like, yeah.

[Yhorm]

Why is his name Rolf? Is that a reference? Isn't it?

[Keith]

I don't know.

[Seth Meyers]

I think Rol on the floor laughing.

[Keith]

Yeah, yeah. They were coining that.

[Seth Meyers]

Every time he came out, people, they're

[Keith]

like, this character is going to make you Rolf.

[Yhorm]

He was the first Rolf Rolfer.

[Seth Meyers]

They worked backwards from Rolf to get roll on the floor laughing. All right, so ham sent one where he really talked through it.

[Keith]

Yeah, I like that one.

[Seth Meyers]

Double clutch. And then he's like, you know what?

[Keith]

Yeah. Because Andy's was more like, hey, it's me, alf.

[Seth Meyers]

Y. This. This second one has some real confidence, a real confidence behind it. So let's hear that real quick.

[Keith]

Okay, milmac. That's it. Good.

[Yhorm]

That was confident. That was more confident.

[Keith]

I'd like to assert that if someone says melmac, everyone should just say, good, good. Well, thank you, Jon hamm for those, by the way.

[Seth Meyers]

And I'm going to be honest. I don't think he's wrong. I think he might have a better alf than Andy.

[Keith]

Those were really good. Yeah, they were better elves. Andy's welcome to come back, of course.

[Seth Meyers]

And we put Andy on the spot. And obviously John had a lot of time to Work on it probably was. Had the old YouTube of who was watching old clips.

[Yhorm]

Did we talk about what melmac is too? That it's a durable, lightweight and break resistant melamine resin dishware.

[Keith]

Oh, it's a real thing.

[Yhorm]

Yeah, it's like it was a joke for them.

[Keith]

But is that named after.

[Yhorm]

No, I think that they named it after a dishware.

[Keith]

Like, I wish the dishware was named after just being huge ALF fans.

[Seth Meyers]

Now there was a. There's a deeper cut. There's a deeper cut. Trivia question. And because I'm confident that Andy won't listen to this podcast before the next one, I will ask down. Do you remember what alf's real name was?

[Yhorm]

Oh, God, I should know this. Gordon. Yep, yep.

[Seth Meyers]

That's the first name, but he has a last name too.

[Yhorm]

Oh, oh, Gordon Ramsay.

[Will Forte]

No, close.

[Seth Meyers]

Gordon Shumway.

[Andy]

Shumway.

[Yhorm]

Shumway, that's right. Yeah, Gordon Shumway.

[Seth Meyers]

I feel like this is. This is. This is like peak LA comedy writing room.

[Keith]

Oh my.

[Seth Meyers]

You know what I mean? Like the fact that they named him Gordon Shumway.

[Keith]

Dude, the lunches in that writer's room, I'm talking the Palm. Every day they were printing.

[Seth Meyers]

They deserve it.

[Yhorm]

They deserved it.

[Keith]

They deserved every lunch. All I could think about when you brought up an ALF show with all elfs is the production nightmare of like this set built six feet off the ground so the puppeteers can, with every piece of set removable. Like when they're all on the couch, every cushion can come up with holes in it.

[Yhorm]

And they're all improving at the same time.

[Keith]

Those puppeteers are all under the couch now. They're behind the couch. Now they're behind the kitchen counter. And poor Andy's just there having to have a whole.

[Seth Meyers]

That's the part that makes me happy because Andy's behind it. Andy's a producer. And then every time you talk to me, he's like, it's a fucking nightmare.

[Will Forte]

He's fucking elves.

[Keith]

Hang out with all these puppeteers all day. They're all divas. They all think they're the star of the show. It's called not alf, guys. Not alf.

[Yhorm]

All the improv stuff that you see online, right? Like, there's all this like, like behind the scenes footage of like. That was not behind the scenes footage. It was like him like pretending nap Tourette's. And I mean, it was like. It was a very funny set.

[Seth Meyers]

They were having a lot of fun on alf. And like, as Keith said, they were fucking printing money. So, you know, enjoy Life.

[Keith]

Oh, we've got. Kevin's giving us a little teaser in two episodes, we get back to business and make shy Ronnie 2. And Jon Hamm's the host of that episode, so we should.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, great. So he'll be.

[Keith]

And maybe have an Alf off that week, or at least invite Ham in.

[Yhorm]

Get hamboned. We should just call him the Hambone episode.

[Seth Meyers]

Multiple people said they paused our podcast to go watch the second Boogerman because it said Boogerman Part 1 and 2 is the name of the podcast episode.

[Keith]

They thought there were two Boogermen.

[Seth Meyers]

And I think they were kind of shocked, based on how we were talking about the original Boogerman, that there was a second one, because I guess we did kind of reveal late in the

[Keith]

episode why it was called part one and two. They must have been so disappointed to not get to see a second episode of Boogerman, the hit sketch. The whole audience at the time must have felt that way. Like, bring that one back. Why are you bringing back the Californians when you got Boogerman right there?

[Seth Meyers]

There was, I would say, a sort of consensus, as close to consensus, Ben, as you could get, that it was like the best podcast episode for the worst short.

[Yhorm]

Oh.

[Seth Meyers]

Which I think is.

[Keith]

Yeah. I think generally, on average, maybe the worse the short, the better the episode, to some degree.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah. Because it doesn't feel like a victory lap. It's more like, comedy's hard.

[Keith]

It has to be one that's dense, though, like a couple of homies or something. Doesn't have much to talk about. Whereas this had big.

[Seth Meyers]

Big.

[Jonathan Kreisel]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

Apparently it had a lot to talk about. And special guests. I mean, come on.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, there was a Burger Man, Sega Genesis game in 1994. Genuinely. You can look it up.

[Keith]

Okay. And I will right away.

[Seth Meyers]

I figured you would right away.

[Yhorm]

Are you thinking of Bomberman, which was on Nintendo?

[Seth Meyers]

It's fully Boogerman spelled the same.

[Keith]

Oh, my God. It looks like boogers. What the.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Keith]

What were they thinking? I'm sharing it, so you can see.

[Yhorm]

Yes, please. Thank you.

[Keith]

Oh, my God, there he is. Oh, what year was this?

[Seth Meyers]

94.

[Keith]

Okay, so a little before we did

[Seth Meyers]

was a pick, a pick and flick adventure. I don't quite know.

[Keith]

You pick and flick. You're picking boogers and flicking them at people. Oh, you didn't know a pick and flick?

[Seth Meyers]

I thought pick and flick was a kind of game.

[Yhorm]

But you're choosing who to flick it at, Right.

[Keith]

You can see him, right. He's jumping around. He's. Oh, my God. So he's jumping around. No, he's got a big white face.

[Seth Meyers]

Everything's covered in boogers. It's not fun. It's not a good and.

[Keith]

And then he's flicking boogers.

[Seth Meyers]

Look at that.

[Keith]

Did you see him flick that booger at that thing?

[Yhorm]

Yeah, I'm sure they thought it was so funny.

[Seth Meyers]

I'm glad this did not work. Or maybe it did.

[Yhorm]

Maybe.

[Keith]

Oh, he's about to do a fart. Oh, my God. Did you see him just load a fart? Seth. Wait, wait. Watch this. Watch this fart.

[Yhorm]

It says fart in a cloud of fart. It says the word fart.

[Keith]

Did it say fart or.

[Yhorm]

Yeah, it says fart.

[Seth Meyers]

Wow, really good.

[Yhorm]

So it's more than just a pick and flick. It's also got toots. Yeah. What the hell is that?

[Seth Meyers]

It's a. It's a Tootin shoot.

[Keith]

It's a toot. Toot and shoot.

[Yhorm]

Pig and flake.

[Keith]

Oh, it's also a Tootin shoot. Excellent, Seth, excellent.

[Seth Meyers]

What did Jeff just Send us to YouTube?

[Jeff]

It's a live action trailer they made for the game.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, a live action trailer for Booger.

[Keith]

So like a sketch?

[Yhorm]

Yeah.

[Keith]

Oh, no, it's real. Let me share with sound. Hold on.

[Seth Meyers]

By the way, if Stars Guard's in it, I'm gonna blow my brains out live on the zoom.

[Yhorm]

Clickbait.

[Keith]

I don't think he's gonna be. But maybe this was, like, early. Like how Paul Rudd was in that Nintendo ad.

[Seth Meyers]

That's why he thought we asked him. Cause he had done this.

[Keith]

Everything will actually make more sense.

[Seth Meyers]

He was like, of course. Who else would you ask?

[Keith]

Is that Pee Wee's nemesis?

[Seth Meyers]

It does kind of. I think it might be Pee Wee's nemesis.

[Akiva]

If you had jalapenos and beans for

[Keith]

every meal,

[Akiva]

you'd have an atomic butt blast, too. Boogerman for Sega Genesis. Hey, boogers aren't his only weapon.

[Will Forte]

Wasn't me.

[Yhorm]

Whoa. That didn't cost nothing to produce, by the way. That. That looked rather expensive.

[Keith]

He blew a hole in the wall of the cafe he was eating at with his atomic butt bowl.

[Yhorm]

Yeah, go to that part, Keith.

[Keith]

Yeah. Oh, it's. It's. Look at what he was eating. He had a lot of 100 bowls of chili. Then you see it poke out of the bottom of his pants.

[Yhorm]

Okay, so that's just a backdrop, right? They didn't actually shoot this, like, on location?

[Keith]

No, they didn't break a real wall.

[Yhorm]

Okay.

[Keith]

And in the game, he climbs out of the toilet. Dear God.

[Yhorm]

Yeah.

[Keith]

Wow. Great.

[Yhorm]

It's kinda good.

[Will Forte]

Yeah.

[Keith]

You think the movie rights are still available?

[Yhorm]

No fucking way.

[Seth Meyers]

Here's one line about it on the Wikipedia page. The game is very repetitive. I don't think there was a lot of character development.

[Keith]

Sup Whoret comes from Airbnb as we've talked about. I just got back from St. Lucie watching the Mets. I stayed at a home on Airbnb in Stewart Island, Florida. And it was great.

[Yhorm]

It was right on the beach, 15ft from the water. It was amazing. Stayed there with another family.

[Will Forte]

There was room for all the kids. Kids loved it.

[Yhorm]

We spent our days on the beach.

[Will Forte]

It was super nice.

[Yhorm]

The place was also super close to a bunch of fine eateries. I felt like I lived at the place, guys. And that's what's great about Airbnb.

[Will Forte]

Over a hotel. Booking a trip on Airbnb makes for a better trip.

[Yhorm]

Whether you're vacationing or you're working or

[Will Forte]

you're daydreaming about a bucket list destination

[Yhorm]

or with your family and you need a bit more space. Booking a trip on Airbnb makes for a better trip. You could be traveling with family or looking to discover authentic and local experiences.

[Will Forte]

It does it all.

[Keith]

Just a short break with something useful. Spring, summer or fall, there's always yard work to do. TikTok shows quick, easy gardening ideas you can use today. No experience needed. Download TikTok now

[Seth Meyers]

last comment from last week's and then we'll move on to our shorts for this week. This is from a female member of Quaid army referring to my unborn child as Quato and my husband's not unborn.

[Yhorm]

Really?

[Keith]

Oh, yeah. Because it's in there. It's actually a super accurate use.

[Seth Meyers]

I will say. I feel like you gotta. I mean, again, in a world where everything we've ever done is more popular. In the NALF that just got greenlit by NBC, Quato is also a character. Oh, it already takes place in space.

[Keith]

Of course.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Keith]

Should it be that Andy gets lost in space with Bill, but then on episode one, Bill is dead because he has a quado? And so like a mannequin of Bill is also like a. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A fake Bill is in every episode, but there's also a quado always on the couch. Kind of like, I don't know, David Spade and just shoot me. He's just like off to the side for one liners when you need him.

[Seth Meyers]

Also that Bill's character was the one who knew how to get home. And the quado does have his memories, but won't tell Andy.

[Keith]

Yeah. Cause he's in hog heaven. He's finally not the weirdo.

[Jonathan Kreisel]

You know,

[Seth Meyers]

that's all he ever wanted was to not be the weirdo.

[Keith]

That's why he's so mean. That's. That's Guado's arc.

[Seth Meyers]

Because he wants to not be the weirdo.

[Keith]

Open your mind. Not alf. That's his new catchphrase.

[Seth Meyers]

All right, so which one of these was the first one of these today?

[Keith]

I believe it was the Chrysler one. I did just get a voice note from him that I have not listened to. So we have rescue dogs 3D, which I definitely helped on, but I don't remember how much I helped. Did I just help editing or did I help with the shoot? I kind of remember being on set.

[Yhorm]

Was the 3D part of that? Because Seth had just been in Journey to the center of the earth and done 3D.

[Seth Meyers]

I think that was a while ago.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

Okay.

[Keith]

I don't think that was it. Now, do we want to watch it first or get Krysle's voice note to give us some?

[Yhorm]

I think we should watch it first.

[Andy]

Yeah.

[Keith]

So I definitely know Krysel wrote this. Like, this was his. This idea fully.

[Seth Meyers]

I'm very excited to watch it. This is an interesting. This is. Again, you guys have made an album and your first three episodes this season are boogerman, rescue dogs 3D, and then the next one.

[Keith]

Well, so this was all him. But is it the same week or is this a week where essentially he had an idea and then we didn't have to make one?

[Yhorm]

It feels like we hated our album, though.

[Keith]

So this episode is October 2, 2010. Bryan Cranston's the host and Kanye west is the musical guest. And this is the digital short. I think he just had an idea for one and we were like, oh, fantastic, let's just do yours. Because stars Andy and oh, look at that. Pepto Bismol. Ice did air right after the monologue as discussed from last week. And I'm just glancing through it. This was when Kanye did Power and run Away. So it was peak. Kanye, I would say also Power, we

[Seth Meyers]

should note that is fuck SNL and the whole cast, right?

[Yhorm]

Isn't it?

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

Did he say it and didn't change

[Keith]

the lyric while he was there?

[Seth Meyers]

What did he change it to? Do we remember?

[Keith]

I don't remember.

[Yhorm]

He said fudge. Snl.

[Keith]

And he was very nice to everybody and apologized to cast members in the hallway. Truly just was like, oh, sorry about that. And then did the song on the show, which is even crazier, and changed it.

[Seth Meyers]

I mean, I remember gasping the first time I listened to Power and heard it.

[Yhorm]

Right, because you would just like to be mentioned, right?

[Seth Meyers]

Well, no, it was more like, you're listening to this song that's so good. And then you're like, oh, my goodness, what was that?

[Keith]

But we.

[Yhorm]

You were like a little flattered though, right?

[Seth Meyers]

A little flattered? Yeah.

[Yhorm]

Like, like that's probably how Drake felt, right? I think he's like, oh, talking about me.

[Seth Meyers]

Well, my ears are. My ears. My ears are burning.

[Yhorm]

I mean, I'm in a lawsuit. It's a lawsuit. But.

[Seth Meyers]

But also my ears. All right, are we watching it?

[Keith]

Yeah. So I think this was a full on Kreisel production. Let's just give it a watch. Ready?

[Will Forte]

Ready.

[Keith]

For those watching at home, we'll attempt to narrate because this is a quiet one.

[Seth Meyers]

Andy at home.

[Keith]

All right, so andy's waking up.

[Yhorm]

3 o' clock in the morning, 3:30.

[Keith]

Some bad guys just ran by the window. He's calling 911, Sees a shadow run, gets under the bed.

[Yhorm]

Little movement on the camera.

[Jane Lynch]

Hello?

[Yhorm]

Do you hear that?

[Bryan Cranston]

What?

[Keith]

No, he's looking at their feet. Let's get this stuff.

[Yhorm]

Okay.

[Keith]

The criminals are exiting. He needs a silent way.

[Yhorm]

Fred and Keenan or him Too big.

[Seth Meyers]

It's the 911 app.

[Keith]

Yeah, it's a pop up ad. Wait so Helen Marin was not the host.

[Seth Meyers]

She must have been a previous episode or what?

[Jane Lynch]

I don't quite understand.

[Akiva]

Emergency robbery? Home invasion?

[Keith]

Never.

[Akiva]

Where should we send help? Please select your theater for rescue dogs 3D.

[Will Forte]

Skip.

[Akiva]

Please choose a Showtime for rescue dogs

[Seth Meyers]

3D has to choose a Showtime to proceed to 91 1.

[Akiva]

Searching contacts. All 354 contacts emailed to join you at Rescue Dog.

[Seth Meyers]

I like that.

[Yhorm]

Those seemed like Andy's actual context

[Keith]

again. It definitely had Doug Abels, who was a update writer at the time.

[Seth Meyers]

Thanks for your order.

[Akiva]

Be patient.

[Keith]

Help is on the way.

[Seth Meyers]

So now he asked to order Pizza Hut as well.

[Keith]

And then he's getting angry because he

[Seth Meyers]

invited everybody to Rescue Dogs.

[Yhorm]

Hey, you guys ordered pizza?

[Seth Meyers]

Hub, I got your rescue. Bobby shows up as the pizza guy.

[Keith]

Let's shoot this mother.

[Jane Lynch]

What?

[Keith]

Oh, yeah. Andy's been spotted. The bad guys are coming in. Wait, don't shoot. I didn't see anything. Just take whatever you want. Sorry, no witnesses.

[Yhorm]

Pretty clear impression of the bad guy.

[Seth Meyers]

Very, very fun music.

[Keith]

Do you think this is where they got the idea for Paw Patrol?

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

Not this part.

[Jonathan Kreisel]

Not where.

[Keith]

Yeah, he rips the arm off the bad guy and they run out.

[Yhorm]

I've never seen that on top of.

[Keith]

And then gives Andy a leaping high five.

[Seth Meyers]

It's very fun.

[Yhorm]

That's a fun one. I really do like things like that on set, where you get to throw a dog puppet towards someone who then has to slap five with it. That's always a fun moment on set.

[Keith]

Better than I remember as well. Some of the comments. The newest comment was from 17 hours ago, and it just says Qwomp.

[Yhorm]

Here it comes.

[Keith]

There's one later that says Quades. I thought this would be a stinker, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[Yhorm]

This is going to be a quap. NATO.

[Seth Meyers]

I think that's going to be what people come away with.

[Keith]

Rescue Dog should do a crossover, a franchise crossover with laser cats. Like Alien versus Predator.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

I do think that it is. It is cool to see a different filmmaker. I'll put that in quotes with Kreisel doing so because there is more movement to that than maybe we would have done. I don't know. Like, there's some slider action. Jolly down.

[Seth Meyers]

There's a very nice camera move where Andy's leaning out. He's on the bed, and he leans to look down the hallway. Very nice.

[Keith]

Agreed. It's really good times. And I don't know if I. I know it so well in my head as soon as I watched it. So I know I was there. And I. I can't remember if I was helping him on set with the shots. Cause I kind of remember.

[Yhorm]

I'm gonna go ahead and say I definitely wasn't.

[Keith]

Yeah, for some reason it was me and him. And then I think I helped with editing. Cause he had to do all those graphics on the phone himself, I believe. And so I think I spent a lot of time editing the main thing to take some of that off his plate, maybe. But let's see what he says.

[Yhorm]

Oh, my God, I hope he just is like, no one was there.

[Keith]

Nobody knew. I did. I mean, it's possible. It's definitely his thing. Here we go. Okay.

[Jonathan Kreisel]

Hello, this is Jonathan Kreisel looking at the digital short rescue dogs 3D, a instant classic. So, yes, of course, technology is always, you know, getting in bed with marketing departments for stupid movies. And it's still going on, and I think this piece is still relevant today. But anyway, I was, you know, coming to SNL straight from Tim and Eric, where I had created a lot of interfaces of technology destroying your life in annoying, stupid ways. And the absurdity of technology. And this was the early app days where apps were still, like, very cool. And there was a lot of, you know, marketing departments just love to get in there. So Rescue Dogs feels like an Andy concept to me. And getting Helen Mirren, it's just the dumbest thing, but it's. I love how seriously this whole thing is taken and how serious the filmmaking is and how serious this plight is. And then seeing this really bad movie, which is also done very well for the parody of a bad dog movie. Fred's arm getting ripped off. I kind of remember some discussions of, like, how violent that should be, how fast this should be, but it turned out really funny. What else? I feel like Andy has been texting me about this. Or we've. Every time we. We've been talking about Rescue dogs as, like, something that is so bad, but I don't know why it's so bad, but it was not so bad. Dumb idea. Along the lines of Boogerman, which I'm sure you guys covered. But taking their concepts. He just remember concepts very, very seriously. And I think the audience is a little bit like, I can't believe these people are taking this so seriously. And that this is the idea. This is the idea. This is what all this, like, cool thriller movie making is going towards. But I think that's always funny. I can't really remember anything else about this.

[Yhorm]

Kiva, help me edit.

[Keith]

Oh, thanks for remembering.

[Jonathan Kreisel]

Anyway, I'M just happy Rescue dogs is finally getting the recognition it deserves. That I'm sure that you guys talking about the podcast will bring a whole new generation to rescue dogs, which

[Keith]

probably

[Jonathan Kreisel]

will find a bigger audience that it did the first time around. And, you know, maybe there's an SNL movie of the actual rescue dogs in the works because it's IP at this point, so. And I know people love Paw Patrol, you know, so it's kind of ahead of its time in a way.

[Seth Meyers]

Maybe we should bring somebody in to pitch with. Great.

[Jonathan Kreisel]

So seeing you guys at some of those development meetings things. Hopefully it's a little sleepy. No, but I really, I really love it. And I'm like, you know, ads are back. Netflix has ads. So again, just ahead of its time. And you can never escape ads. And. Yeah, that's it.

[Seth Meyers]

Okay, bye. Great. Thank you, Krysel.

[Yhorm]

That was great.

[Keith]

Thank you, Krysel.

[Yhorm]

I mean, it's really like. Like what, what I feel like George Saunders is so good at. You know, I mean like, it's like sort of a John George Saunders world. Like you can't escape advertising and you know, not to like, like make it more lofty.

[Seth Meyers]

Little black mirror.

[Yhorm]

Yeah, exactly.

[Keith]

The opening three or four shots in a row are very well done. Dolly shots.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

You think that was a dolly?

[Keith]

Yeah, cuz it there. There's no.

[Yhorm]

You don't think that was slider? I think it was Slider.

[Keith]

The one that pushed up to him felt like had to be maybe both, but I. I don't know. And then getting under the bed, like he did a great job. And then the one that's like on him and then finds the feet in the background.

[Seth Meyers]

It's.

[Yhorm]

It's weird. I will say it's weird to see built sets. In short, you know, I mean like you're like.

[Seth Meyers]

Yes.

[Keith]

All on one set. With the thing? Yeah, with the window and everything.

[Yhorm]

I'm not used to it. It's not Flat Hotel where we shot everything.

[Keith]

Why were we just at the Bjellan Bros. Is that something you wanted to revisit, Seth?

[Seth Meyers]

That's one I wanna watch too.

[Keith]

Okay, give us an intro on what this is. So we're in the Bryan Cranston episode. Go ahead, Seth. Why are we about to see Bagellan Bros?

[Seth Meyers]

All right, Bielen Brothers. I will just say, kind of a loss to history sketch. That is one that I think about all the time. Alexi and I will sometimes sing the one line from this song over and over again. It is the pure brilliance of Fred and his ability to just drill down on one small thing. And the Bjellen brothers. Bjellen is spelled with a B and then a J and then an E and. Yeah, let's just enjoy a song about now.

[Keith]

Why did we pull up dress and not air so.

[Seth Meyers]

Cause I want to go. I want to watch air afterwards because an interesting thing happens at air that makes it demonstrably worse. So I remember dress being the better version.

[Yhorm]

Okay.

[Seth Meyers]

So let's watch it.

[Bryan Cranston]

Good evening, everybody.

[Seth Meyers]

Hello.

[Fred Armisen]

Thank you all for coming. Are you ready, Dan?

[Bryan Cranston]

I am always ready. Always ready for such a lovely audience. They look so beautiful tonight.

[Seth Meyers]

So take a sundrums, long haired, wigs

[Fred Armisen]

juice to your house. Did you get it? I sent a bottle of sparkling apples.

[Keith]

It's just. It's just Bryan Cranston and Fred in, like, black kind of leathery outfits with Michael Bolton hair.

[Yhorm]

And that's so.

[Fred Armisen]

Did you get it?

[Yhorm]

I'm liking today because in the background,

[Keith]

too, remember this song? They're just so. They're just vibing out really into what they're singing, just so you know.

[Bryan Cranston]

Thank you all so much for coming tonight. It means so much to me and my brother Jeffrey.

[Fred Armisen]

Sure does. Can we all. Can you all see us people in the back?

[Yhorm]

Is that.

[Bryan Cranston]

Can we turn the house lights up a little? We want to see the crowd,

[Yhorm]

not turning them.

[Seth Meyers]

Empty audience. Cut to empty audience.

[Keith]

Yeah. It was like a stock shot of an empty arena.

[Fred Armisen]

Singers describe as lightly attended.

[Bryan Cranston]

There are pockets of people. I see a nice little crowd right over there.

[Yhorm]

Hello.

[Bryan Cranston]

It's about quality, not quantity.

[Keith]

Still, that's like six people would be nice.

[Fred Armisen]

I see whole sections that are empty.

[Bryan Cranston]

Whole sections. But that's okay. This is our hometown.

[Fred Armisen]

It is.

[Bryan Cranston]

And you know what?

[Keith]

Oh, no. It's their hometown.

[Bryan Cranston]

We love you.

[Keith]

The reveal.

[Fred Armisen]

I sent a bottle of sparkling apple juice to your house. Did you get it?

[Bryan Cranston]

I sent a bottle of.

[Yhorm]

Yeah, I see why this goes to your head.

[Fred Armisen]

Did you get it?

[Bryan Cranston]

You guys remember that song?

[Fred Armisen]

Oh, we sure do.

[Yhorm]

Good mic work from Gron.

[Bryan Cranston]

Amazing. Came out in 1970.

[Yhorm]

Worst way to hold a mic.

[Fred Armisen]

God, are we that old already? I still look the same, don't I?

[Bryan Cranston]

No comment on that one. Sounds so lovely. Yes.

[Fred Armisen]

I'd like to say I sent a bottle of Spider.

[Bryan Cranston]

I think they just work here. Hello.

[Fred Armisen]

Did you get it?

[Bryan Cranston]

This song hit the top 200 on the Minnesota charts. How about that?

[Fred Armisen]

Seeing our name up there on the Bijeldon Brothers printed local music trade magazine. Oh, we were shocked. Especially since the song was written fairly quickly Believe it or not, it's true.

[Bryan Cranston]

You see, I had sent a bottle of sparkling apple juice to a woman I was very interested in.

[Fred Armisen]

Very interested.

[Bryan Cranston]

And I didn't hear back from her as to whether or not she got it.

[Fred Armisen]

Not a word.

[Bryan Cranston]

I was very depressed for about a year until one day I walked out into my garage and saw a bottle of sparkling apple juice sitting underneath the table. Saw it. Turns out I forgot to send it.

[Fred Armisen]

He's very forgetful. There are a lot of room. My presence sitting out in his garage.

[Bryan Cranston]

But you know something, people? Hello. We got this whole beautiful song out

[Yhorm]

of this experience, didn't we?

[Fred Armisen]

We did. Oh, I choreography. I sent a bottle of sparkling apple juice to your house. And did you get it?

[Bryan Cranston]

Say hello to our band. They've been working so hard on this three day tour.

[Fred Armisen]

We have. Thank you.

[Yhorm]

They've been working so hard on this.

[Fred Armisen]

Oh, we lost a lot of money on this tour. A lot of money.

[Bryan Cranston]

That's right. We've bought two buses. Do you have any idea how much a bus costs? You know, we could have rented them, but I was just being show off in front of my new assistant. So, so dumb.

[Fred Armisen]

We also hired a chef.

[Bryan Cranston]

Stupid. You guys look like a very good crowd. You guys want to sing along?

[Fred Armisen]

Oh, perfect idea.

[Bryan Cranston]

Bring it down.

[Fred Armisen]

Let's bring that. Bring the music down just a little bit.

[Yhorm]

Guys. Sounds so nice.

[Fred Armisen]

I sent a bug apple juice to your. I sent a.

[Seth Meyers]

Holding the mics out. Silence.

[Yhorm]

It's so great that no one actually joined in.

[Keith]

They didn't mess up the joke.

[Yhorm]

Like there needs to be like a no applause sign for that.

[Fred Armisen]

To your house.

[Bryan Cranston]

This is the only song we're doing tonight. I said

[Fred Armisen]

apple juice to your house. Oh, we love you, Minneapolis.

[Keith]

It's.

[Fred Armisen]

Did you get it?

[Yhorm]

Mm.

[Keith]

Bill and Keenan are there playing other instruments.

[Seth Meyers]

I know off camera.

[Keith]

The whole. And just were only in the wide shot for one second. Had to be vibing on bass the whole time.

[Seth Meyers]

Truly amazing when you think about the stars that Kenan and Bill are that they stood off camera literally just to get cut to one time in that sketch. Not even lit. Just like quietly playing instruments. So the reason I watched dress air fucked up the audience at air did sing along.

[Yhorm]

Yes. It's great to not have them sing.

[Seth Meyers]

And it's crazy that it was not fail safe that the dress audience understood the joke better than the air audience because you cut to empty stands three times and then they asked the audience to sing along. And the dress audience knew that if they sung along it would ruin It.

[Yhorm]

I was so worried immediately that they were gonna fuck it up.

[Keith]

So it's just towards the end. I could just go to the end of it.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Keith]

Oh, they moved Sudeikis, which is bad.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, man. That's such a. What Lauren thought. Sudeikis was pulling focus, and Sudeikis was brilliantly understated and a perfect sort of anchor.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

I wonder if that's why halfway through the dress, they go down on lights on him. Do you think that's possible?

[Keith]

Because, like, they were.

[Seth Meyers]

Like, they wouldn't be able to adjust it that fast.

[Keith]

It looks very similar.

[Yhorm]

I love that he was so stupid.

[Bryan Cranston]

You guys look like a very good crowd. You guys want to sing along?

[Jane Lynch]

Huh?

[Fred Armisen]

They do.

[Bryan Cranston]

Okay, here we go.

[Fred Armisen]

Bring it down the music. Bring it down.

[Bryan Cranston]

The music.

[Keith]

Just a little, guys.

[Fred Armisen]

Okay, here we are. I center apple juice to your house.

[Keith]

Yeah. It becomes a different thing.

[Seth Meyers]

It's.

[Keith]

It's breaking the sketch for the audience to have fun with them because the audience doesn't usually get to interact.

[Seth Meyers]

It's nice. By the way, they're not a bad audience. Arguably a better audience.

[Yhorm]

Maybe a better audience.

[Keith]

It gives the sketch a new move, which is that it's just a celebration of being silly, I guess.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

It is funny, though, like. Because I remember us seeing Tenacious D play Madison Square Garden, and you're like, oh, the joke has changed. Like, they're not losers playing at, like, a shitty club that nobody likes them. Like, they're fucking actual rock stars. And you're like, well, still works. Well, I. I get why that goes through your head, Seth. That's gonna go through my head for the rest of my life.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah. They sing the same line.

[Keith]

I didn't remember that at. I'm really happy to have revisited it.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah. The Bielen Brothers.

[Yhorm]

Do you talk to Cranston about that? Like, when you see him, are you guys, like, talking?

[Seth Meyers]

I think I have mentioned Bjellen Brothers to him. I think that that is. I enjoyed the Bjellen Brothers, and I think he did, too. He certainly was having a lot of fun out there.

[Yhorm]

He did a very good job.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

I liked his little, like, holding the mic, horribly tapping on it in a very obnoxious way.

[Seth Meyers]

They're sweet. I also believe those brothers love each other. I think that even though Fred's brother character brought two brusses, I don't think the other guy blames them. Feel like they're just going.

[Yhorm]

You said you've added a B to a lot of, like, bees.

[Seth Meyers]

I have. I have a hard Time today.

[Yhorm]

Brushes now.

[Seth Meyers]

Brushes, brushes. Breaking Brad. All right, so did we find the line? What did he say?

[Jeff]

It looks like, according to genius, it looks like he just wrote an entire new second verse.

[Seth Meyers]

Ah, got it.

[Jeff]

Like, not just replace the line. Like it's a whole new verse.

[Seth Meyers]

Got it.

[Keith]

So it doesn't even have to rhyme because every line is new, not just the first two lines.

[Jeff]

Yeah, it seems so.

[Seth Meyers]

Like, SNL's hard. They work really hard.

[Yhorm]

It's unfair to the whole thing's about it. SNL and L are.

[Seth Meyers]

It was a lot of, like, you know, what would you have done if you had to write a monologue for Taylor Lautner? You know, stuff like that.

[Yhorm]

Yeah.

[Seth Meyers]

As we decide whether or not we're gonna do a second short here, we have a voice note from Andy and Akiv. Is this that you wrote him about Jon Hamm calling him out?

[Keith]

I said that Jon Hamm called him out with his own alfs. He got sent those voice notes. So he has heard the Jon Hamm voice notes of alf.

[Seth Meyers]

Gotcha. So this is his response.

[Keith]

Oh, ye.

[Seth Meyers]

So this is the new Drake and Kendrick, really?

[Keith]

Exactly. There's a beef brewing. Or maybe not. Maybe he'll squash it right here.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, that's true. You know what? We don't know if it's beef.

[Keith]

Let's hear. Maybe he'll just take the L and just walk away. Let's see what Andy said.

[Yhorm]

That seems like Andy. That sounds like Andy.

[Andy]

If it's an ALF off you want,

[Keith]

then it's an ALF off you'll get Jon Hamm.

[Seth Meyers]

No quash.

[Andy]

Was that perfect?

[Keith]

It was better.

[Andy]

I feel like yours was too raspy. Just like you said. John Ham.

[Yhorm]

Oh, you guys.

[Keith]

Oh, God.

[Yhorm]

I don't know. I, I don't.

[Keith]

Why does Andy's. Why does Andy's voice note quality sound so much better than Seth?

[Andy]

What even is life? You know, I'm hiding in a closet. It took me two hints. Okay, Seth. Oh, I don't know if you want to cut this in half and put the spelling bee thing before it. Who cares? I didn't do it clean. It wasn't a quibby. I, I, I can't do it anymore.

[Keith]

I give up. I give up.

[Andy]

I don't know which shorts you did. Rescue dogs. It was all Krysel. I just, like, hid under the bed for, like, a couple shots. What else happened in the app? I don't know.

[Keith]

This guy's losing it.

[Andy]

Anyways, love you guys. Later, Arnold.

[Keith]

That's my move. He tried to end the he tried

[Seth Meyers]

to end it for us, shut it down. It was agreed. A bunch of Quaid's did agree with our assessment that Poehler showed up and just fully tried to tank our pod with her voice note. But a lot of people were like shout out. To the craftiness of Ms. Amy Poehler, who immediately was like, I'm not going to let another pod just get a free run at this.

[Keith]

The end of her voice then was very funny.

[Seth Meyers]

It was fantastic. Always fantastic.

[Yhorm]

I like how much people like her though. To be like, what?

[Will Forte]

Genius?

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, she's a genius. She's up there.

[Will Forte]

Genius with it.

[Seth Meyers]

Dang it.

[Will Forte]

Support for our lovely program comes from AG1. Take a break from your school or work routine, but stay consistent with your health. Very important.

[Yhorm]

Guys.

[Will Forte]

I'm living proof that things can go awry. AG1 provides easy support with travel packs to celebrate the adventure of life.

[Yhorm]

You guys, I have a bunch of AG1 at my house. I love it.

[Will Forte]

And as I've told you before, Will Forte came over and he stole a bunch of the travel packs and he really didn't appreciate it. It AG1, if you're listening, please re up me. Or you know what? Maybe I'll buy it myself.

[Yhorm]

Like a real, you know, human.

[Will Forte]

AG1 is a daily health drink that is clinically shown to support gut health and fill common nutrient gaps. With 75 plus ingredients, including five clinically

[Yhorm]

studied probiotic strains, AG1 replaces the need

[Will Forte]

for a multivitamin probiotics and MAs that means more in Spanish. Go to drinkag1.com island to get an AG1 flavor sampler and a bottle of vitamin D3 plus K2 for free in your AG1 welcome kit with your first AG1 subscription.

[Yhorm]

Order only while supplies last, of course,

[Seth Meyers]

guys, so move quick.

[Will Forte]

That's ag1.com island support comes from bomb bombas. That was a little extra credit on my half. You know, gu. Guys, I've decided that we're going to actually get a sock bin for our household filled with bombas. My son is getting to the age

[Yhorm]

where he can just wear our socks.

[Will Forte]

Eventually my daughter will be able to

[Yhorm]

do this as well. But for now, the three of us

[Will Forte]

are just going to have a giant thing of bombas and anybody can take one.

[Yhorm]

Is that disgusting?

[Will Forte]

Weigh in on the comments.

[Yhorm]

This year, as you know, I need

[Will Forte]

to get back into sports and activity.

[Yhorm]

That's what it says here. But the sport is swimming, so it doesn't really count for this. Exactly.

[Will Forte]

And the gym, which it does. You can't wear socks in the pool, guys.

[Yhorm]

You really can't. Even if they're Bombas, these socks are perfect for the gym.

[Will Forte]

They're perfect for walking, running, all that sort of stuff that I'm excited to do. They're cushioned where I need it most. And you most likely sweat wicking. Yes. And loaded with other tech features. Radar, sonar to keep me comfy and locked in and away from big brother.

[Yhorm]

If you like comfort the way I

[Will Forte]

do, you should head over to bombas.com island and use code ISLAND for 20 off of your first purchase. That's B O m b a s.com/island. Code island at checkout.

[Akiva]

K pop. Demon hunters, Haja Boy's Breakfast Meal and Hunt Trick's Meal have just dropped at McDonald's. They're calling this a battle for the fans. What do you say to that, Rumi?

[Legal Disclaimer Reader]

It's not a battle.

[Akiva]

So glad the Saja boys could take

[Yhorm]

breakfast and give our meal the rest of the day.

[Seth Meyers]

It is an honor to share.

[Keith]

No, it's our honor.

[Will Forte]

It is our larger honor.

[Keith]

No, really, stop.

[Akiva]

You can really feel the respect in this battle. Pick a meal to pick a side

[Yhorm]

and participate in McDonald's while supplies last.

[Keith]

Andy seems like. He seems exhausted.

[Seth Meyers]

I should have asked him. Somebody said, I bought season one of Digman on Apple tv. What does that get me? Because obviously, you know, we talked a lot about Andy gulping it.

[Keith]

Yeah, that's worth more.

[Seth Meyers]

That seems like more than a gulp. Yeah. Yeah.

[Yhorm]

Oh, right. Oof.

[Jonathan Kreisel]

Ooh.

[Yhorm]

Andy.

[Seth Meyers]

Also, somebody suggested that we write. You guys write a parody song because that's what you're known for. To the tune of Ante Up. That's called Andy Up. It's about him getting up after a street interaction.

[Will Forte]

We don't really do that, though.

[Yhorm]

We actually don't do parody songs.

[Keith]

We should Weird Al it.

[Seth Meyers]

Weird Al it.

[Keith]

And they think it's about when he has to gulp. When he has to gulp somebody.

[Seth Meyers]

Well, that is post gulp. Andy has to get up.

[Keith]

Andy up. He just gulped that fool. See? Oh, no.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, don't take the money.

[Yhorm]

Yeah, that does like a. Like, that's an arty party.

[Keith]

Those back and forth. So we're moving forward one episode. I think we just burn ourselves out in the summer making all the songs and then have to just start. Yeah, yeah, we're coming in not hot.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Keith]

Just medium warm. Lukewarm.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Keith]

Not embarrassing ourselves, but just getting the job done.

[Seth Meyers]

No, but it does feel like we're watching. Um, we're like parents who are like, I can't afford tickets to The Yankees, but I'll bring my kids down to Florida and watch a little spring training, you know what I mean? It's still the stars you love.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Seth Meyers]

They're just not moving full speed.

[Keith]

That's right. Yeah. Yeah.

[Seth Meyers]

Nobody wants to pull a hamstring with three episodes in, you know what I mean? We're gonna. We got a big album. We're gonna. We're gonna pace it out.

[Keith]

Shy Ronnie too's right around the corner and that. We didn't do that over the summer because we didn't know Rihanna was gonna host or be musical.

[Seth Meyers]

So do you feel like there's a little of, like, what do you think it is that you're saving your songs off the new album? Is it one you're waiting for, like, the stars to align? 2. I don't have a second reason.

[Keith]

I think that's right. But I also think there's, like, it probably. We're really busy mixing and trying to fix jokes and, like, get the album finished so it can come out.

[Yhorm]

You think it was that?

[Keith]

And even though it doesn't come out, it doesn't come out till the end of the year, to the end of the season.

[Yhorm]

Do you.

[Seth Meyers]

Do you tell. Do you think there's a little tell in Lauren? Like, hey, we have great songs. We're just kind of waiting to make sure we get the right people for Em.

[Keith]

Him. I don't. I. I mean, he definitely knows we recorded, you know, over the summer and there will be more songs, but do

[Seth Meyers]

you think he's, like. When he's watching Boogerman, when he's watching

[Keith]

Rescue, is he, like, where are they? No, I don't think. Yeah.

[Seth Meyers]

Okay.

[Yhorm]

I don't know, though. I find it actually confusing why we didn't.

[Keith]

Well, there's some that have all three of us that we know are not really that welcome if they don't have a big guest.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Keith]

And I think we were precious in the way of, like, hey, when we do a song, we know the audience thinks we're swinging for the fences. We don't really want to do songs unless we. We think they're a big deal sometimes. As opposed to, like, because we were really conscious of not wanting to burn the audience out of songs on our songs by doing the ones we thought were like, yeah, just fun for the album. Like, we wanted to wait and only do ones we thought were killer. But I don't know if that's a good strategy in hindsight.

[Yhorm]

Seth, does that track to you that

[Seth Meyers]

we might have overthought things I knew you overthought it. I was just curious if you remember what the conclusion of your overthinking was.

[Keith]

I think that's why we're not just, like, throwing attracted to us. Besides that it had me and Yhorm on it. But the reason we're not just being like, well, we have that one. It's not a big deal. Let's just do it this week. Like, we've already written enough songs that we could do a song every week this season. I think instead we're like, let's wait till we have ones that we think are gonna be really good.

[Will Forte]

Got.

[Yhorm]

Shit.

[Seth Meyers]

It does strike me that, again, there's a reason the best jokes are in the trailer, which is if you're trying to sell an album, it makes sense that you would Would put your best songs out to the public.

[Yhorm]

You know what I'll say is that the best jokes are not in the trailer of over your dead body. You really have to see it in the theaters because there's so many good jokes that are not in the.

[Keith]

Fantastic.

[Seth Meyers]

I'm glad you're doing it.

[Yhorm]

April 24th. April 24th.

[Seth Meyers]

You know what? I'm glad you're saying that, because people felt like every time you tried to remind us about that Andy jumped in with his Digman stuff last week.

[Yhorm]

Yeah, thank you.

[Keith]

Late night with Seth Meyer still available.

[Yhorm]

He's not here. Thank God he's not here. April20.

[Andy]

Hey, everyone. Andy chiming in a few days later again. I'm on set right now. If you hear a lot of noise in the background, that's why, I guess it's pretty cool. But while I have your ear, I

[Keith]

did Quibby Clean today, so we might

[Andy]

want to throw that in there. And another little factoid that I wanted to add is that seasons one and two of Digman are on Netflix currently. So if you just let that run in the background, give it the double thumbs up. I will gulp you out on the street if you see me. You don't have to prove it. Again, you don't have to prove it. Just let me know. Just say, hey, I watched it all. Or I didn't watch it, but I let it run. Double thumbs up.

[Keith]

Go, go, go, go, go, go.

[Seth Meyers]

Okay.

[Andy]

This is how the industry works. Thanks, guys. Bye. Later, Quades.

[Seth Meyers]

And also, we don't have any Strawns to want yet, but do remember that I want strawns is a iwantstrawnts.com an active URL.

[Keith]

You could start loading up the hits on that.

[Seth Meyers]

I think we're Gonna couple of things. We're gonna have a link to yhorm's burrito place, Donna's sister's poptar place. We're gonna just. I think any stront that gets mentioned on the pod will show up on I want stronts.com. the place is. Brooks and I eat in Arizona. Yeah, those are obviously going to be. I want. I want stronts.com.

[Keith]

yeah, yeah, the pizza bianco or whatever it's called.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You don't have to remember. You don't have to remember.

[Keith]

You can just go to highwantstrands.com and you're good.

[Yhorm]

If I ever get this vasectomy, I would love to put my doctor on there too. Just as like a little sidebar.

[Seth Meyers]

I don't have any problem with that.

[Keith]

Yeah, Yelp isn't just restaurants.

[Yhorm]

Well, that's like an amuse bouche, right?

[Seth Meyers]

I'm not going to be a dick about what can be on there.

[Yhorm]

Okay, good.

[Keith]

It can grow like Yelp did. You know, it can. It could start and then one day people are looking back like, why is a thing that has the word Strauss in the title not just about str. And then you're like, well, it's. It grew the way, you know, yahoo grew or Google grew, you know, to do everything.

[Yhorm]

Natural human interaction.

[Keith]

Now it's where you go to find

[Yhorm]

a doctor for procedures, ax throwing, vasectomies, whatever.

[Seth Meyers]

All right, let's watch relaxation theory.

[Keith]

All right. Jane Lynch. Jane Lynch. Love Jane Lynch. Everyone's a fan. I don't remember anything about this except for that it was middling. But let's see, maybe it's not. So for anybody who's just listening to audio right now, this short kind of speaks for itself. As soon as she's talking and taking him into this guided meditation, we see it, and it's a beautiful, very colorful garden.

[Jane Lynch]

What seems to be the problem?

[Andy]

I just feel stressed out all the time. I don't know what to do.

[Jane Lynch]

Well, let's try something. Shut your eyes. Okay, now take a deep breath and imagine that you're in the middle of a big, peaceful meadow all alone. A warm breeze floats by carrying the smell of fresh flowers. The sun caresses your. Your face as you let go of all of your fears and worries. And also. I'm there.

[Seth Meyers]

Wait, why are you there?

[Jane Lynch]

Just relax, William, okay? It's all part of the process. Stay with me. Okay? Okay, so you're in the field. You hear the sounds of some birds playing in the sunshine. You breathe In. And when you exhale, you feel all your troubles just melt away. And also, I'm there dressed as an ice cream man, sliding Popsicle in and

[Yhorm]

out of your mouth. Wait, what is that?

[Jane Lynch]

That's. Okay. All right, just. Let's take it a little slower.

[Seth Meyers]

Okay?

[Jane Lynch]

And we're back in the fear. You're completely calm. Let go of all tension in your neck. You lie back, and when you look up, there's a golf ball in your privates. And I'm there teeing off of the five wood.

[Seth Meyers]

Okay. Yeah, that's.

[Yhorm]

That's not cool.

[Jane Lynch]

Trust, William. Trust. Okay? Stay with me. And we're in the field. The cool breezes, state of relaxation. Nothing around you for miles. It smells warm, like fresh bread coming out of an oven. Yeah, and on top of that bread, we've got smoked ham, lettuce, tomato, a little bit of spicy mustard on the top, and then I guess a diet Dr. Pepper. Okay. See? And we're in the field. Breeze, flowers. Relax. Deep breath. Friendly rabbit.

[Seth Meyers]

Little more Popsicle. Okay, what is going on?

[Yhorm]

Are you even a therapist?

[Jane Lynch]

All right, I'm going to level with you. This is a new experimental method that I am developing, okay? And if it doesn't help you, if it's a complete failure, then I'll wave my.

[Keith]

Okay, fine. Good.

[Jane Lynch]

Okay. This time, we'll take a slightly different approach. Now you're in a perfect white space, and all of your stress just melts away.

[Andy]

Okay, this is nice.

[Jane Lynch]

An innocent girl approaches you and offers you a flower. You warmly accept it. Then she kicks you in the crotch. And then I walk over and I kick in the crotch. That's it.

[Keith]

You know, right to the lens.

[Andy]

Huh?

[Keith]

That.

[Yhorm]

Len.

[Andy]

You know, I think that actually works. I strangely feel better.

[Jane Lynch]

And that concludes phase one. No, let's begin Phase two.

[Keith]

Oh, my God. Fully naked.

[Yhorm]

That is dedication right there.

[Seth Meyers]

Sophie Michaels.

[Keith]

Yeah, that was Sophie, Lauren's nice daughter, Sophie.

[Seth Meyers]

Michael shows up and kicks Andy right in the nerd. Yeah, very. That was a lovely trifle. Yes.

[Keith]

I liked it a lot. And I liked the. I thought. I didn't like the ham and stuff, but then I. It was so smoothly done when it came back to her on the phone that I was like, I saw it coming, and I actually still liked it.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, beautiful. Just Andy, over and over again, shot it outside. Where'd you shoot it, Keith?

[Keith]

This was in Brooklyn at, I believe, the botanical garden. Is that at Prospect Park? Jorm, where's the. Where's the botanic?

[Bryan Cranston]

Brooklyn.

[Yhorm]

No, that's not actually the.

[Keith]

It's Its own thing.

[Yhorm]

The Brooklyn botanical gardens is its own thing.

[Keith]

It's its own thing.

[Yhorm]

Its own thing. It's great. Kind of near buddy's burritos. Not really, but, you know, you can make it into the day easily. Save it from there.

[Seth Meyers]

Save it for straunt wants.

[Yhorm]

Yeah. Yeah. No, that's a very nice tree.

[Seth Meyers]

Strawance will eventually have a map of where the digital shorts were shot. And what is the closest place to get a burrito.

[Keith]

The closest.

[Seth Meyers]

If you were going. If you were visiting those places.

[Yhorm]

Yeah. How close you are.

[Seth Meyers]

One of the many things. And again, healthcare.

[Keith]

Yeah. And all healthcare.

[Seth Meyers]

The way to compare insurance advisors.

[Keith]

Yeah. We did a nice, nice job shooting this. And we were out. And I remember also just being happy to have seen this beautiful botanical garden because we never got to go. I only knew the path from my apartment to 30 rock and back and then the straws and bars that kind of were between those two areas. And so when a location would take us to, like, a beautiful botanical garden in Brooklyn, I just do remember being like. Like a tourist and just looking around like, wow, this is so cool. This is so nice.

[Yhorm]

It's still a day in a park.

[Seth Meyers]

If you go to the 52nd mark on YouTube, that is the most sun you guys ever saw in the time you're in New York as it broke through the trees there at the 52nd mark.

[Keith]

Yeah. But again, we. So this is fall. A nice fall day. You know, I'm a spring guy.

[Seth Meyers]

Right.

[Keith]

But I'm fine with this fall. Fall's more When Harry met Sally. You know, it's nice.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, what you just said is so true, Keith. Because I feel like people think when you work at snl, you just, like, have the keys to the city and it's like, no, we mostly just go to and from work.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Seth Meyers]

And then like, a few bars and restaurants.

[Yhorm]

I will say in the same way that Harry met Sally. Like, it's such a thing to say this, but it's so true that, like, that, you know, the city is like its own character in that movie.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, interesting.

[Yhorm]

I would say the same thing of this.

[Seth Meyers]

Interesting.

[Keith]

Yeah. In this, it's like the botanical. If someone asked me what this short started, I'd say Jane Land Finch, Andy Samberg and the Brooklyn Botanical garden and

[Yhorm]

New York City, baby.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

Her dedication in this is really something special. I will say she's great.

[Seth Meyers]

She's fearless.

[Keith]

After she knees him in the balls. I like, I really loved her look to camera, like, kind of presumably almost to Andy, who's imagining this.

[Seth Meyers]

She's got old school comedy chops. She was at the Annoyance Theater. Played Carol Brady in the Real Live Brady Bunch, which was sort of a phenomenon when I was back in Chicago back in the day.

[Keith]

She's very good.

[Yhorm]

Do you pronounce it Chicag?

[Seth Meyers]

Chicag. Hey, I want to give a shout out. It's not Seth's Corner, but we had the comedian Chris Fleming on my show last week. I don't know if you guys know Chris Fleming. Yep, he's fantastic. And it was one of my favorite. I know I shouted out James Acaster for a very similar type thing. Nothing makes me happier than a comedian. I adore just going fully off the rails. And that's entirely what he did. I just giggled like a schoolgirl for 10 minutes while he. While he just grabbed the audience's attention.

[Yhorm]

Is he chicag?

[Seth Meyers]

He's not Chicag. He's a. He's a New England guy. He's from Massachusetts, but now an LA guy. I think he's a great, great new HBO special. I highly recommend.

[Keith]

I gotta watch his sag.

[Yhorm]

Seth is a slight tangent, but I'm doing a screening of the movie in Chicago.

[Keith]

Yeah.

[Seth Meyers]

At the Music Knox Theater.

[Yhorm]

Yeah. If there's anybody who you think I should invite, let me know.

[Keith]

How about the Quiz and the Quids?

[Yhorm]

Yeah, please come. I'm gonna be there. And also I believe we're gonna have the band Dead, who is a local Chicago band. They have the song Bad Love in the movie.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, nice.

[Will Forte]

And that is spelled D E H

[Yhorm]

D. And they are awesome. I'm very, very excited to meet them. Fantastic Music box theater, which apparently is also a nice theater. Everybody keeps me like, oh, that's great.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, it's beautiful. It's a beautiful theater. It's what makes us happy. Oh, Jon Hamm, the gift that keeps giving. Because there was. There was one other thing he sent along with his.

[Yhorm]

Oh, I think he sent him Andy's note.

[Seth Meyers]

I'm sure that he'll let us put it in the chat.

[Keith]

Oh, it's his face on. I'm assuming still Jeremy Allen White's body.

[Will Forte]

No.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, Jaws's body.

[Yhorm]

God, he got even more ripped.

[Will Forte]

Fuck.

[Yhorm]

There's no way I'm getting that. But if anybody did you think were

[Seth Meyers]

you was your plan Yoram, that he was just going to stop working out and that you were kind of. Kind of via the up arrow?

[Yhorm]

No, I genuinely thought I could sort of do it, which is. Shows how delusional I am. Maybe. But can I just Put this out to any of the quids. And. And I don't want this to seem creepy in any way, shape or form, but if anyone has a picture of Jeremy Allen White's dad shirtless, I would. I would love to see it.

[Keith]

I keep writing roles for Jeremy Allen White where he's like a chubby dad so that he'd have to lose it for the role to try to get out.

[Yhorm]

Really help me out.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, to help out you?

[Fred Armisen]

Yeah.

[Yhorm]

That's the sweetest thing I've ever heard. That is so nice of you.

[Keith]

You guys can meet in the middle somewhere.

[Seth Meyers]

He's gonna be like, maybe so Naked Gun 2. He plays sort of a chunky cop.

[Keith]

Yeah. There's like a scene where you see it where like. Yes. Where he's. Where he's swimming or something. So you gotta chunky cop.

[Seth Meyers]

I'm just saying. No, no, Yorm, if he has to

[Keith]

get chunky, then you're.

[Yhorm]

Oh, gotcha, gotcha.

[Keith]

Like a dad bod.

[Yhorm]

Okay.

[Keith]

Just a nice dad and normal. And I'm just like, you can't be ripped because you're like a donut eating dad bod cop.

[Yhorm]

Okay, Don anymore.

[Seth Meyers]

Yorm, I feel like it's too soon for you to play Springsteen in the biopic for Born in the usa but maybe by tunnel of Love, maybe by human touch. Is it. When they do the Ghost of Tom Joad movie, is your maybe. Is there a chance?

[Yhorm]

I'll work on it. I'll get there.

[Seth Meyers]

Wait, how is the. Hold on, I'm trying to see.

[Yhorm]

When can I look like?

[Keith]

Let's get this.

[Jonathan Kreisel]

What age can I look like?

[Yhorm]

So I'm going to send you guys pictures of my body.

[Seth Meyers]

I feel like Ghost of Tom Joad. I think he's like 46 when he makes Ghost of Tom Joad. So that's what we're aiming for if they make a movie like they did.

[Yhorm]

Okay, can I take my shirt off and just show you guys where. What I'm working on?

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, I just.

[Yhorm]

Here, I'm going to do it and then you guys, you just tell me how bad, how far off.

[Keith]

We can just send pics, you know.

[Yhorm]

No, Eve, no, we're. This is live. We're going to. You guys can judge. Hold on.

[Will Forte]

Okay.

[Keith]

Okay. Y's taking his shirt off for rails.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah.

[Keith]

Great. I think you've lost weight since the incident.

[Seth Meyers]

Yeah, I mean, it looks great. Great. But it's markedly different than the scene from. From.

[Keith]

You're not. You don't look overweight, but you're just looking Extremely soft.

[Yhorm]

No, I look a little overweight and just soft.

[Seth Meyers]

Wait, is it time for Joey? Should I do push ups?

[Yhorm]

Should we do a push up competition?

[Keith]

I guess so.

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, actually, I think I've been sitting too long. My back's a little tired. But hold on.

[Keith]

He's straight. He's doing stretching right now.

[Yhorm]

Are you gonna actually do it? Oh, yeah. All right, let's do this. Wait, Keith, will you count for us?

[Keith]

Yeah, sure. Well, this looks like a nice. You guys are both not at home and you're both in nice places.

[Seth Meyers]

Well, hold on. Is that a contest or is it me trying to beat my.

[Yhorm]

No, we're gonna do a push up contest now.

[Seth Meyers]

Well, I can't count for both of us. I'm doing my own count.

[Keith]

All right, ready?

[Seth Meyers]

They go?

[Keith]

Yeah, Go. They're doing about the same speed and they're at like 5, but they're doing them fast. If they slow down, I think it's about almost about the amount of time versus how many you're doing.

[Yhorm]

I'm gonna go slower than this joker,

[Keith]

but when you go slow, it's even harder. So it's kind of not the same thing. Seth's form is good, but his head is down. Probably too low, I think. Think right? Yeah, There you go. Cuz you're supposed to be not leading with your forehead like that.

[Yhorm]

I just want to outlast him.

[Keith]

Y looks like his form is very good. Maybe, but I can't tell. He did kind of a low angle up at his face kind of humping down at me.

[Seth Meyers]

All right, I did 37, so I beat my record by one.

[Keith]

It's still impressive.

[Seth Meyers]

Obviously Hoping for a bigger leap.

[Keith]

I think if I did them with really proper form, I'd get to like 12.

[Seth Meyers]

I feel like this is real. Not going to give a lot of.

[Keith]

That was really good.

[Seth Meyers]

A lot of grist to the quaize. You think the pod takes a step down when Andy's not here.

[Will Forte]

Welcome back to the manosphere, right, guys?

[Seth Meyers]

Oh, my God. Manscaping.

[Yhorm]

I've been talking a lot about the

[Will Forte]

manosphere on different pods.

[Seth Meyers]

So next 45 minutes going to be manscaping.

[Keith]

We can cut this pod down to the bone. You know what I mean? Just keep it moving.

[Will Forte]

We'll keep this part, though.

[Seth Meyers]

All right, well, love you guys.

[Yhorm]

Love you.

[Keith]

Love you. All right, we'll come back with more energy by doing a late night app next time. Again.

[Seth Meyers]

I know we got to do that again.

[Keith]

Not two guys who are both in hotels. All right, dudes.

[Seth Meyers]

Love you guys. I'm going to get back to my fam.

[Yhorm]

Love you, too.

[Seth Meyers]

Bye, dudes.

[Yhorm]

Later, Arnold.

[Andy]

Later, Arnold.

[Fred Armisen]

Later, Quaid.
