Andrew Santino
Over 20 years, easily.
Bobby Lee

Colton Dunn
That's right.
Bobby Lee
I remember you specifically singing a sister christian song.
Colton Dunn
That's right. Night ranger.
Bobby Lee
And I was. And I remember Bobby because we had. I had coached him previous this performance, and it was you and it was Tiffany haddish. And then he was the last to go up, and he was like, oh, my God. Colton and Tiffany.
Andrew Santino
I know what? They crushed it so hard that you were afraid to. I was afraid to go up.
Bobby Lee

You showed something.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Lee
Got desperate.
Andrew Santino
I got desperate.
Colton Dunn
Oh, he. You took your clothes off.
Andrew Santino
But that was completely though.
Colton Dunn
But that was like. That's like. You got to do it. That was like, at that time, you got to understand what Hollywood was like.
Andrew Santino
I guess. I guess. Bobby lee got on stage.
Colton Dunn
Everybody in the audience knew those clothes
Andrew Santino
were not long in. Comedy central was mad.
Colton Dunn
They were all upset about.
Andrew Santino
They were very upset about it.
Colton Dunn
They just had to blur it.
Andrew Santino

Andrew Santino
I don't remember a compliment. I don't I A great job. Yeah. I think that's not a compliment.
Colton Dunn
That's great.
Bobby Lee
To confront someone if they liked or didn't like a compliment is. Is really, like, crazy work.
Andrew Santino
It is.
Bobby Lee
Yeah.
Guest/Comedian
And your compliment was. Nice job.
Colton Dunn
Hey, man.
Andrew Santino
Hey. Hey, Bobby.
Advertiser/Host

Andrew Santino

Colton Dunn
You gave a really good compliment. It was awesome afterwards. It was better than doing it.
Andrew Santino
Great job, dude. Anyway, you didn't.
Colton Dunn
It's like one of those, like, Bobby's like, what's funny? You guys all know Bobby is this kind of kooky goofball, But Bobby's kind of like, for me is like the old coach who's like, hey, kid. Oh, you did?
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
And I'm like, what? You saw that coach? Like, yeah.
Andrew Santino

Colton Dunn
I was a writer at MAD TV for many years. For many years.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And. And I. I partied super hard. Like, everybody sick. Pretty sick.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. It's sick, right?
Colton Dunn
My man, you and me would have been tight. Would have loved my house.
Andrew Santino
I would have got you on that show.
Guest/Comedian
Thank you.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Anyway.
Advertiser/Host
All right.
Colton Dunn
Time's fast and so, you know, but I'm there as a writer and I'm just, you know, great.
Andrew Santino
Right.
Colton Dunn
Fancy free. And. And Bobby comes one day and I don't know if you remember, you said this to me, go, hey, man, you're gonna be a producer one day. What a cocaine on my face.
Andrew Santino
Did you become one?
Guest/Comedian
Did you like that?
Colton Dunn
I am now.
Bobby Lee
I am.
Andrew Santino
I was fucking right.
Colton Dunn
He was right. But I didn't at the time. At the time, I was like, what the fuck is this guy talking about? I can't even.
Andrew Santino
Producer. I'm a seer.
Bobby Lee
No, honestly, he does have. Have some, like, oracle qualities about him. That's weird. But he's. You're right.
Colton Dunn
So.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, Luke, you're gonna be a star.
Colton Dunn
I gotta respect it. That was.
Guest/Comedian
Thank you.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Believe it. I believe it.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Going to be a star, dude.
Guest/Comedian
Thank you.
Andrew Santino

Andrew Santino
Yeah. Oh, wow.
Colton Dunn
He did. Congratulations, man.
Guest/Comedian
Thank you.
Andrew Santino
Congratulations, dude.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
That's a big show.
Guest/Comedian
It's pretty huge, actually. Yeah. No big deal. Cbs.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Guest/Comedian
It's been a while.
Andrew Santino
Oh, cbs? Really?
Guest/Comedian
No big deal.
Andrew Santino
Cbs? Yeah. Not a series regular and TV show.
Colton Dunn
So, like, what do you know? What, like, what did. What was it? What did you unleash?
Andrew Santino
Not comedy.
Guest/Comedian
I was pretty. I. I did have censors come up directly to me multiple times to say, you can't say that. You can't say that. You have to say it again. Byron Allen kept cursing to me. I got him all riled up.
Colton Dunn
Really?
Guest/Comedian
Yeah, yeah, he was. I.
Colton Dunn
He was cursing because he was mad at you?
Guest/Comedian
No, he was just like, oh, you're
Andrew Santino
talking about wanting to this girl.
Guest/Comedian
I like a joke about wanting to have sex with all.
Andrew Santino
He's like, you're in a.
Guest/Comedian
And then they would cut and be like, hey, Byron. You can't say. And he's like, okay, I won't say it.
Colton Dunn
He's like, oh, the leashes are out, man. The Leash is out again.
Andrew Santino
Bringing that back.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Not Relative.
Bobby Lee
Oh, that's one of my trigger songs.
Colton Dunn
Why is that?
Shannon Maldonado
Yeah.
Bobby Lee
And then I think the other one is feeling hot, hot, hot.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Bobby Lee
It sends me into, like, a mental spiral.
Andrew Santino
But who did. I don't know what year. Who did let the dogs out?
Colton Dunn
I, I, I don't start singing.
Andrew Santino
Okay. Yeah.
Colton Dunn
So who are you on with? On Comics Unleashed.
Guest/Comedian
Just a bunch of legs.
Colton Dunn
Did this already air?
Guest/Comedian
Yeah, it aired.
Colton Dunn
Did we see it on? Was it streaming somewhere?
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Colton, please.
Guest/Comedian
You have so much. You have so many bigger things going on you don't want.
Colton Dunn
Oh, really?
Guest/Comedian
You don't need to see my.
Colton Dunn
Not really. I blew up an inflatable water slide. Don't have a lot.
Guest/Comedian
That's a great life.
Andrew Santino
You. I, I got cut out of the show. I told you that.
Colton Dunn
Yes, yes, yes.
Andrew Santino
But the reason why I went to the premiere is, is that Larry himself called me and. Can you please come to the premiere? I'm, you know, I mean, the bit didn't work, you know, and I. What was the bit? The sketch I was in. Oh, yeah. It just. The whole sketch got cut out.
Bobby Lee
Is that something that a lot of people don't do is call you and say, hey, like you're actually not in it? Is that, like, a courtesy many people don't extend.
Colton Dunn
I think for somebody like Bobby Lee, you would extend that courtesy.
Andrew Santino
I've never been. I have never had that call before.
Bobby Lee
I know, because he called me immediately after. He's like, can you believe he let me know in advance?
Andrew Santino
Yeah, he let me know in advance. He called him, me, himself. It was like. It was like that old school show business.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Which is like, kiddo.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
You know, I had told this story before, but I was the back room at the. I was checking IDs before MADtv at the Comedy Store, and George Carlin came in. Do you guys know him?
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Okay.
Colton Dunn
Good audience.
Andrew Santino
Hello.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah. Old guy.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Bobby Lee
Oh, my God.
Colton Dunn
I'm sorry.
Guest/Comedian
I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
Andrew Santino
Legend.
Guest/Comedian
Yes, yes, I know.
Andrew Santino
He was a legend.
Guest/Comedian
Yes.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. So, anyway, big fan. Yeah. I was a kid. I was, you know, your age. How old are you?
Guest/Comedian
25.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I was that age, whatever that age is. And he said, what's your name, kid? And I go, bobby Lee. I'm a comedian. Am I boring you?
Colton Dunn
No, no, no. I'm sorry. I was just.
Advertiser/Host
I thought that was a big yawn.
Colton Dunn
Oh, that was not a yawn at all.
Andrew Santino
And then a year later, he walked in again. I Was working the back door again. And he goes, good evening, Mr. Lee. He had remembered my name. And that Larry David thing felt like the same thing.
Bobby Lee
Have you ever been in a situation where you show up to a premiere, like, excited to see yourself and you're not. You never see yourself.
Andrew Santino
Oh, yeah. Have you? The movie Paul.
Colton Dunn
I don't.
Guest/Comedian
Okay, well, you might have dodged a bullet.
Colton Dunn
It was an alien.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. And then they put me in the.
Bobby Lee
Oh, the extended.
Andrew Santino
The extended version. Yeah. I'm in the director's cut. Okay, but like, somebody cut me.
Guest/Comedian
The director wanted you in.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I didn't know. I went and. And I'm like, oh. Because I was in the beginning.
Colton Dunn
That's messed up.
Andrew Santino
No, that happens a lot for me.
Colton Dunn
That's not good.
Andrew Santino
It's not good. That's not good. Yeah, yeah. As a producer.
Colton Dunn
If I was a producer, I would not let that happen.
Guest/Comedian
It's so funny to see Bobby at the premiere as a producer and you're like, you know, he. He's not in it. Right. Is he going to figure that out?
Andrew Santino
Yeah, but it happens all the time. I. I believe.
Colton Dunn
I'd imagine. But I can't imagine any. Any producer with a performance background, on camera background would not.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Would not give that courtesy.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Like, I was in the movie the dictator. Never was invited to the premiere.
Bobby Lee
But at least you were in it a lot.
Andrew Santino
I was in it a lot, but I was not invited to the premiere.
Bobby Lee
Wait, that.
Colton Dunn
Were you too controversial for that movie?
Andrew Santino
For the premiere? I don't. No. I don't know what it was. They just didn't invite me. Oh. Yeah. So, I mean, you know, things like that. What?
Advertiser/Host
I'm surprised you get cut out of that.
Andrew Santino
I didn't get caught.
Colton Dunn
He wasn't in the.
Advertiser/Host
You're prominent in that film.
Bobby Lee
Yeah. You.
Colton Dunn
You want.
Advertiser/Host
You, you.
Colton Dunn
Maybe there's a way that you. Maybe you got invited to the premiere and you just didn't get the.
Bobby Lee
You don't check your mail.
Advertiser/Host
That's another.
Bobby Lee
Okay, maybe they texted you.
Guest/Comedian
Maybe somebody.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, maybe they call the producer right now. Yeah, I. I think one.
Colton Dunn
I can't imagine that they wouldn't want as many Asians there as possible to shield them.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
Sony's like, call them all.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You would think. I think one of the reasons why it was in London. Oh, yeah. Is that make it.
Advertiser/Host
I don't know.
Andrew Santino
I don't know.
Colton Dunn
That's a weird. I mean, I don't know. I guess I wouldn't assume that. I would just be like, hey, man, you want to go see the movie in London?
Andrew Santino
But, yeah, I. I definitely was not invited.
Colton Dunn
Would you?
Andrew Santino
Because I kept calling. You would have gone, yeah. And they're like, it's in London. So. And I go, what does that mean? Like, I'm not gonna fly you out.
Colton Dunn
Oh, they just go, I'll be in London. You wanted them to fly you out to London for.
Andrew Santino
I mean, I'm in the movie.
Colton Dunn
Oh, buddy, now.
Andrew Santino
No, no. What do you mean? What do you mean?
Shannon Maldonado
What do you mean?
Guest/Comedian
What do you mean?
Andrew Santino
What do you mean?
Colton Dunn
We don't have that in the budget. Now he's flying a premiere.
Andrew Santino
No, wait. First of all, Luke. No, I'm gonna ask you. Not you, Colton. Okay. If you had five scenes in a movie, right. And. And you. It was in a different country, you don't think that they would fly you out?
Colton Dunn
I mean, I guess I'd have to see. It would depend on what the scenes were in the movie.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
I have to tell honestly what your contract was when you started the work on the job. I mean, you make the agreement for getting paid to go to a premiere right at the beginning. Like, that's. That's press. That's like publicity.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
You know, like, so you know that just paying you out of, like, just out of niceness. I mean, maybe somebody could have done that who works on the movie, but.
Andrew Santino
Okay, what about. What about this situation business wise?
Colton Dunn
There'd be no reason to buy you
Andrew Santino
a ticket, Colton, just to be there. So I'm not a star.
Bobby Lee
You are.
Andrew Santino
You're a star. I'm not a star. No, I mean, yeah, there's a lot
Colton Dunn
of stars in that movie.
Andrew Santino
There's a lot of stars. Yeah. Yeah. Too many stars.
Colton Dunn
There's not too many. I think it's the right amount.
Andrew Santino
It's a great movie. Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Don't make them. This about you.
Andrew Santino
All right, let's talk about you. Let's talk about one last question.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
All right. If you're doing a film.
Colton Dunn
Okay.
Andrew Santino
Right. And you show up and they go, you're not. You don't have a trailer. Which just happened, too.
Guest/Comedian
Right.
Advertiser/Host
You showed up and there's no trailer.
Andrew Santino
There's no trailer. And they go. I go, why? It's not in the contract. Right. So I had to sit with the extras in a barn, and I had scenes and stuff. Would you be mad about that?
Colton Dunn
I mean, I'd be mad at my representation.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I was. Yeah. And then they screamed at the producers, and then I got, like. No one talked to me for the rest of the movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was bad, so.
Colton Dunn
Are you serious?
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Wait, why wouldn't they?
Andrew Santino
I don't know. For you, I don't know. But. But I made the trolling you. I know. I made the mistake of yelling at my age is like why the fuck don't I have a trailer? Right? And then they screamed at the producers and then it was like. Because there was just so many people in a couple of days, they just ran out. But what made me mad was Ken Jeong had one.
Bobby Lee
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Well, that's.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And we both understand that would make you feel.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Guest/Comedian
Maybe they. There was. They mixed you guys up or something and there was a confusion.
Colton Dunn
What?
Andrew Santino
Bro, Bro, dude, What kind of take is that?
Colton Dunn
I'm leash on
Andrew Santino
you're not.
Guest/Comedian
I'm trying to.
Andrew Santino
That's not Byron Allen. I'm trying to. A different block guy. Okay.
Guest/Comedian
It seems like Agent.
Colton Dunn
Byron.
Advertiser/Host
Byron.
Guest/Comedian
Don't say it.
Advertiser/Host
Byron.
Guest/Comedian
Don't do it.
Colton Dunn
Byron.
Andrew Santino
Helix Sleep.
Guest/Comedian
Oh yeah.
Andrew Santino
Helix Sleep. Helix Sleep. We love Helix Sleep.
Bobby Lee
Man, I'm getting sleepy just thinking about my wonderful Helix.
Andrew Santino
I have a Helix mattress. I have two of them as well. And let me tell you something, man, we sleep like angels on a cloud.
Bobby Lee
And honestly it's like, why wouldn't you have the best mattress on earth? You spend at least a third of your everyday exactly on this thing, right? Like, why shouldn't it be the best thing ever?
Andrew Santino
Yeah, why? I feel like I'm floating, like I'm an angel, you know, in the sky. And it makes me sleep good. But then gets dark and see like a nighttime angel in the darkness.
Bobby Lee
What I love about Helix is like you and I are different sleepers, right?
Andrew Santino
Oh yeah. You're a spazzer.
Bobby Lee
I'm. Well, I run really, really hot and I'm a side sleeper, so, you know, it's very easy.
Andrew Santino
She rolls. Rolls?
Bobby Lee
Yeah. You can just go in the website, you can take the take the really short quiz and it matches you with the perfect one for your exact type of sleep and body.
Andrew Santino
It also has a 120 night sleep trial and limited lifetime warranty. That's great. Free shipping and seamless delivery. That's good too. Helix delivers your mattress right to your door, Luke. With free shipping in the U.S. that's amazing.
Guest/Comedian
And you know what? I also heard that they're award winning and they're the most awarded mattress brand tested and reviews by experts like Forbes and Wired. That's legit.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.

Byron, you trying to get in?
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Guest/Comedian
Stop.
Andrew Santino
So you wrote for Key and Peel too?
Colton Dunn
I did work for Key and Peele.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
That's what I called them. I was like Mr. Key.
Andrew Santino
No, no, they. No, because of the mad TV relationship.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
You got brought over to that for sure.
Colton Dunn
And I had known Jordan from before Mad tv.
Andrew Santino
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
And I had met Keegan in passing.
Andrew Santino
Just through.
Colton Dunn
Yeah. So I'd known you both those guys before. Before Mad TV and then after. And then obviously.
Andrew Santino
So you knew Ike back then. Josh. Oh, Josh and all those.
Colton Dunn
Ike, Baron, Holtz, his brother John.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Josh, Seth. Yeah, all those dudes.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I remember they used to hang out.
Colton Dunn
Those guys used to hang out.
Andrew Santino
What do you mean? What do you mean to hang out?
Colton Dunn
We all used to hang. Used to be Byron Allen out.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I know.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
You guys hang out a lot. Yeah.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
But now there was a time in the show where I was pretty bad at the table reads. Was. Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Was that a tough time for you?
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I'm sorry. Yeah, it was a tough laugh. Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Well, you know, I was. I was. I was a writer at the Table Read. So for me, I. I got to experience table reads differently.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Bobby Lee
How long had you been there before Bobby joined?
Andrew Santino
No, he was there the last three. I was already there.
Colton Dunn
He was there the last three. But Bobby and I worked together a lot.
Andrew Santino
We did. You wrote me some good one.
Colton Dunn
I think I got in kind of as you were kind of coming out of whatever funk you were in.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
Because I think. I think with me and Dips were there like you had. You had. You had some friendship.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
In the writers.
Andrew Santino
I did.
Colton Dunn
And so the table reads were. Were fun.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. So my memory.
Colton Dunn
I know they were always stressful for you.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, they were stressful.
Colton Dunn
They're very stressful for this guy.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
But this specific person. But at the end of the day. They were super fun.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Every Tuesday was the most horrifying day for me.
Colton Dunn
A tough day.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Monday night you would get the scripts.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
And then you. There was no email or nothing. They would deliver it to a person,
Colton Dunn
would go to your house.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. And just give you a script. Yeah. So at midnight you're just running through it to see what you're in. But do. Were you there. You were there that. When Katie Depot did that prank.
Colton Dunn
The best prank ever. Oh, you were there for that one.
Andrew Santino
Oh, yeah, the prank. Yeah. Do you know about the prank?
Guest/Comedian
Oh, no. What is it?
Colton Dunn
Well, I mean, I don't know. Dude, you should have Katie on the show.
Andrew Santino
I know.
Advertiser/Host
You did call her when Ben Schwartz was here.
Andrew Santino
I did?
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Did she pick up.
Advertiser/Host
She did pick up laughing immediately.
Andrew Santino
Oh, she did. Okay.
Colton Dunn
Okay.
Andrew Santino
Oh, yeah, yeah. So she knows. Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Okay. Well, you got to have her on the show. It's a wonderful story.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, it is a wonderful story.
Colton Dunn
I don't, I don't. I don't want to tell it. Cuz it's such a good story.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I already told it.
Colton Dunn
Oh, you've already told it. Well, then, yes, I was there. What a loser. Falling apart at the table. Just like.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I was falling apart.
Colton Dunn
Oh, it was bad.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, she gave me some. There was a script.
Colton Dunn
So everybody gets a script at the table reading. And everyone's going along and reading their lines and like going the thing. But what Katie had done was given Bobby a different script. And so people are going through and reading, and in Bobby's script, it says like, I forget what the lines were.
Andrew Santino
But yeah, it was like random.
Colton Dunn
So people.
Andrew Santino
I'm losing it. I'm losing it.
Colton Dunn
And he would just say that. So everybody else does not see that line on the page. They just think he's just saying it.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Bird noises.
Colton Dunn
And they're pushing and they're just pushing through because they're like, well, it's just Bobby beat Bobby.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
We all know.
Andrew Santino
And did you know? Huh? Did you know that I had a specific script or were you shocked by it?
Colton Dunn
No, we knew that this is a prank.
Andrew Santino
Oh, so you were in on the writers.
Colton Dunn
We knew.
Andrew Santino
Oh, the writers knew. Oh, I didn't know. I thought only Katie knew. Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Maybe Katie got all of us.
Andrew Santino
I think she got all of us because I remember she was the only one laughing.
Colton Dunn
I mean, I definitely would have been laughing.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
For sure. Even if I didn't know, I would have been going.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. People were scared. People were scared. People. Because it was like I'm about to snap. Oh, yeah, yeah. It was our last table read for the whole show.
Colton Dunn
This was, like, specific, like, I don't know.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So now the executives and everyone is scared. Everyone's scared because they think I'm gonna lose my mind. Yeah. That was the prank. Prank.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, that's her prank, man.
Andrew Santino
It was a great prank, dad. Yeah, she got me. Yeah, she got him. So you were on with Key and Peele the whole time?
Colton Dunn
Yeah, as far as I know.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Unless they did. They might have done some stuff.
Andrew Santino
Who came up with the football stuff?
Colton Dunn
The football stuff. I.
Andrew Santino
My name is John.
Colton Dunn
I feel like that might have been Jordan.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Jordan himself. And then. And then it was one of those, you know, like a lot of things that we did something called, like, dookie sessions.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Where at the beginning of the day, we would just come in and come in with an idea and we'd float a dookie.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And everybody else would just pitch on that idea.
Shannon Maldonado
Ah.
Colton Dunn
So for that one, it would have been like. Oh, yeah. You know, he probably wrote down a bunch of names.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And then we all submitted a bunch of names.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Donkey Teeth. That's the name.
Andrew Santino
I. Yeah, yeah. That was really good. Donkey Teeth was good. Yeah. And then who wrote the. The teacher one? The. Keegan. Rich Telorico Tellarico wrote that.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, dude. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Rich and Keegan wrote that.
Andrew Santino
Wow. Substitute teacher.
Colton Dunn
That's 100.
Andrew Santino
Rich Telo Tellarico, dude. He wrote for Matt as well.
Colton Dunn
Yeah. Wrote for MAD TV as well. Wrote some of the best sketches.
Andrew Santino
I believe that. I believe that as well. Yeah. Is that. Have you seen that sketch?
Bobby Lee
Yes.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah, I've seen Aaron.
Andrew Santino
You've seen a. A Ron. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was probably. I was auditioning for a TV show. I had two lines. It was like a guest spot.
Guest/Comedian
Okay.
Andrew Santino
And I wait along. I was in this lobby, and on the table was Entertainment Weekly. It was Key and Peele on it.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Right. And now. And I went into.
Colton Dunn
You just.
Andrew Santino
No, I just went into, like, what happened in my life. Yeah.
Bobby Lee
I'm about to snap.
Advertiser/Host
I'm about.
Colton Dunn
After. How do you make it in this city? That's. That's the whole. That's the whole job. The whole job is looking around at how great everybody's.
Andrew Santino
I know, I know.
Colton Dunn
And being like, all right, I'm not going to let it affect me, but
Andrew Santino
in this case, they're my boys.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Right. And I'm so happy for them.
Colton Dunn
More mad.
Andrew Santino
No, it doesn't make me more mad. Does it make me more mad. I was just like. It was.
Colton Dunn
I know what you're talking.
Andrew Santino
I was. No, no, let me explain. My guy. I feel like you don't. I feel like you don't get me now.
Colton Dunn
We got you.
Andrew Santino
I get you. I get you to back. But anyway, I. It was like, I'm so happy for them. But then also you go to yourself and go, oh, I have nothing. And this is where you and I started this.
Bobby Lee
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
In that time period.
Bobby Lee
Oh, yeah, yeah. I want to roll back to just 15 seconds ago. And this is unrelated. You guys really laughed hard when I said I'm about to snap when Luke said it first.
Guest/Comedian
I was.
Colton Dunn
Conversation is a group effort.
Bobby Lee
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
That happens a lot. That'll happen a lot of times where someone will say a joke that isn't quite big and the group bands together, the other person repeats it to make sure everybody hears it.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Shannon Maldonado
And then.
Colton Dunn
And then. And then did the appropriate thing, which was to go, but, hey, guys, that
Bobby Lee
was not my credit due. Yeah, yeah.
Andrew Santino
You know, it's like that Camp heels.
Guest/Comedian
I was going to say.
Colton Dunn
Is that our key and peel.
Guest/Comedian
I had like, high on pot news.
Colton Dunn
Oh, yeah.
Andrew Santino
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Guest/Comedian
Gabriel Iglesias comes in to come on tour with me.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. So it's just like that sketch.
Shannon Maldonado
Yeah.
Bobby Lee
Apologies, Luke. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Andrew Santino
But in this case, you in the get. You gave him the credit. You got to be more bold.
Guest/Comedian
I will.
Shannon Maldonado
Yeah.
Guest/Comedian
I'm still getting. Getting used to it, so, you know, I'm just getting comfortable.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Nerds against nukes.
Guest/Comedian
Let's not talk about. It's fine.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. I'm not a nerd. I'm against him as well.
Guest/Comedian
But, you know, it's like a vintage tea. Do you know about vintage tea?
Andrew Santino
Vintage clothing.
Shannon Maldonado
Wow.
Colton Dunn
Wow.
Andrew Santino
I have no idea what's going on right now. Wow. See, this is my problem with you. I'm sorry. I know we have a guest here, but here's my problem. With what? You're getting a little too cocky. What is cocky? What is cocky?
Bobby Lee
I've hidden in pass already. I will say he does have a great vintage tea collection.
Andrew Santino
I think based on his not helping me. Yeah. Based on his economics, I think he's doing pretty well in terms of dressing.
Bobby Lee
Oh, right, right.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. Based on his economic. Yeah, you know, like we used to do the vintage.
Colton Dunn
Sure, man.
Andrew Santino
No, no.
Guest/Comedian
I only say that because I know that you're into it.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
I don't know what it is, but there's a one moment that I remember from You. I don't know why, but you said something. Oh, you started singing Life on Mars by David Bowie.
Colton Dunn
All right.
Andrew Santino
At the table read. And I don't know why you did it. And you're a writer.
Colton Dunn
Wait, why I did it?
Andrew Santino
Yeah, you sang it a little bit. And I'm like, I don't know why, but that's a memory of mine.
Colton Dunn
Of, like, memory where I would have done that. Because there was a sketch we wrote.
Andrew Santino
Oh, my God.
Colton Dunn
You remember?
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Is there? It might have been a Neil DeGrasse Tyson skin.
Bobby Lee
I love him. Did you guys ever have one?
Colton Dunn
I'll figure it out. I'll figure it. But it was. Yes, I definitely remember writing a. Writing a Life on Mars or Is there Life on Mars Parody.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Yeah, that's what it was.
Colton Dunn
I may have had to sing it because maybe. Maybe Jordan didn't want to sing it for the read or something. For whatever reason I say I may sang it for the read.
Andrew Santino
Do you remember when Kim Peele at the table reads, would sometimes push the tables aside and they would just act out.
Colton Dunn
Oh, yeah. All the time.
Advertiser/Host
Do the sketch.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, they would just do. Well, like, you know, like. Like the. Like the slap guys.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Like, they would always just stand up
Andrew Santino
and they would perform.
Colton Dunn
You can't just. You don't read it, you know, read it. And the person's just like. And then they slap their chest and he slaps his chest and they slap each other's chest.
Andrew Santino
But they would come in and do a performance. Yeah. And it was. They would crush those two. They did. They knew each other before that.
Colton Dunn
Oh, yeah, they had. They had. They had met kind of cross paths just through Chicago Improv. But I don't think it was until. I think it might have been like, once he got hired or a little bit before that, that they really, like, like, kind of like sat down and sort of connected as, like. Oh, wow. Okay. We have a lot of, like.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, you know, my theory. My theory is this. And I, like, I don't want to be confrontational, but I'm going to say something. Confrontation. Okay. Okay.
Colton Dunn
It was crazy because it made everybody insane. It made everybody get all, like, cuckoo and weird and act all wild and.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
You know, so.
Andrew Santino
But then after.
Colton Dunn
Talk about it. Talk about that. So it doesn't happen on other shows.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You should acknowledge.
Colton Dunn
Anyway, maybe the younger generation.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, the younger generation.
Colton Dunn
I don't know if he's gonna get
Andrew Santino
it, but he's gonna get it.
Guest/Comedian
I get it.
Andrew Santino
Look at his eyes.
Guest/Comedian
Wait.
Andrew Santino
They crinkle. They're cute. Yeah. You have, like, a Tom Hanksy Likability.
Guest/Comedian
Thank you.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I. I like this.
Colton Dunn
The swings of you with him are so funny. It's like you'll be like. You're like Tom Hanks likability. I hate you. Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Guest/Comedian
I saw a comment that called me down syndrome, James Franco, so that. That one stuck a little bit.
Andrew Santino
Okay. You look like you're part of the family. Maybe underdeveloped.
Shannon Maldonado
Yes.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Guest/Comedian
I don't want.
Andrew Santino
But still a Franco.
Guest/Comedian
But I like the stories of, like, the grungy craziness. Like, I'm envious of that. I don't. I think that's kind of over. It doesn't sound like those types of things are still happening. Yeah.
Bobby Lee
It doesn't seem like place toxicity say
Colton Dunn
that, but I don't know.
Guest/Comedian
Was it real? Did it feel toxic in the moment? It feels like that's what bonds you together with each other.
Colton Dunn
I mean, you know, it was. You know, it's. It's. It's like. It's.
Andrew Santino
It is.
Colton Dunn
It is equivalent to what it is like to be on drugs when everybody in your work environment is also managing drugs.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Which is these big swings. So there's these, like, super elated moments where everyone's all together and we're like, we did it. We're living the dream.
Katie Dippold
We're the best.
Colton Dunn
We're the funniest people on the planet. And then it, like, swings. The next thing where it's like somebody took a. In the dressing room, and this guy
Andrew Santino
is, you know, this guy who did that.
Guest/Comedian
That.
Colton Dunn
This guy lied to get a job here. This guy lied about who he is in order to get a job on the show, you know?
Andrew Santino
Oh, I remember that.
Bobby Lee
Wait, what happened?
Andrew Santino
Oh, my God.
Colton Dunn
I remember that. Yeah.
Guest/Comedian
You want. You.
Colton Dunn
You want something not to cut out the show. Let's talk about.
Andrew Santino
We're not going to cut. We're not cutting that out.
Colton Dunn
Talk about story.
Advertiser/Host
What is this?
Andrew Santino
So there's a writer, right?
Colton Dunn
There's a writer.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Yeah, he's a writer. Right? He's.
Colton Dunn
He is a writer. He's. He's out right now. He's out and about right now.
Andrew Santino
He's doing well.
Colton Dunn
He seems to do all right.
Andrew Santino
Okay. Okay. Well, we don't have to say his name.
Colton Dunn
Oh, I will. At the end of the story.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. And he lied.
Colton Dunn
Everything we're gonna tell you is alleged. Yeah, this is all alleged that we. That we're gonna tell you.
Andrew Santino
Well, he got fired.
Guest/Comedian
Alleged.
Colton Dunn
I mean, he got fired. We Will. I'll talk about it. They're all allegations, but I. But I definitely have my own personal experiences that I.
Andrew Santino
But he also broke the heart.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Of a cast member and.
Colton Dunn
Oh, okay.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. So there's that.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
You remember that?
Colton Dunn
Yeah, I do remember that. And that's the one part that we won't talk about.
Andrew Santino
We won't talk about that.
Colton Dunn
But. But understand that. Understand that that's there. And that underlines all of the.
Andrew Santino
There was actually a couple of those things happening.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, there's the.
Colton Dunn
Oh, yeah, we're not talking. I gotta tell you about this. How this guy.
Advertiser/Host
Thank you.
Andrew Santino
Okay.
Colton Dunn
This guy gets hired on the show.
Guest/Comedian
All right.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, here's the. Here's how we're sold to the. As this guy hired on the show.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
This guy is one of the south park guys. He's been working with South Park. He's doing voices on the show in the movies. He's one of the animators with them, and he's like their best buddy. But now he's kind of wants to get out and do his own thing. He wants to come to MAD TV and do our animated segments.
Andrew Santino
Yes.
Colton Dunn
You know, and so on. On the page, you're like, this sounds great. Mad TVs like, yes. South park, biggest show on television. We're get one of the guys. He's going to do an animated segment.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Advertiser/Host
Show.
Colton Dunn
Wow, this is gonna be great. Right?
Andrew Santino
Yep.
Colton Dunn
He comes out with the animated segment. And the animated segment is called. I think it's called, like, something.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
And it's. The animation is, like kid drawings. And the voiceover is. Is very South Parky. It's like, hey, it's time for the kid news.
Guest/Comedian
And here's what's going on.
Colton Dunn
George Bush, you know, it's like he's doing this thing and the. The animation is going. You're like, okay, I get it. You know, it's all right. And it kind of plays out. And this dude is like. He, like, walks around the office. He's, like, bouncing a ball around. He's wearing sandals. He's like, really? Seems like he's playing this rider role. And here's the story. Here's my one story that I was always like, this is weird. And I have been able to confirm that it was a lie.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. All right, okay.
Colton Dunn
So one day he's, like, walking around the office and he's, like, chilling.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Advertiser/Host
What's this?
Andrew Santino
Tennis ball. What was that?
Guest/Comedian
It was like.
Andrew Santino
I remember the ball. Bouncing ball, you know, but it's like, that's red. I think it was like.
Colton Dunn
It's like I've always now saved that. When I meet people who have, like, a weird thing. I'm like, I know you've got something.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Something else is going on.
Advertiser/Host
Oh, I see.
Andrew Santino
I see.
Bobby Lee
Like a performance of a quirk.
Colton Dunn
You need this ball because you're a magician, and I need to always have. Getting your attention.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. That you look somewhere sleight of hand.
Colton Dunn
So this dude.
Andrew Santino
I have cards. I do cards.
Colton Dunn
You do cards?
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Very cool.
Andrew Santino
Action. Lim. I. I shouldn't limit. Yeah.
Colton Dunn
This guy, one day goes, hey, man, he makes this whole big deal, kind of going to one but one person. I gotta leave early today before the table. I gotta take off early because. Yeah. Sasha wants me to come do some writing. Do you remember this?
Andrew Santino
No.
Colton Dunn
Going around the office, all Sasha Baron Cohen. Sasha Baron Cohen, yeah. Wants me to go do some writing for
Andrew Santino
like.
Colton Dunn
Okay, that's. Oh, all right, man. What's it for? And I think he was like, maybe the Emmys or some. Some award show. He's like, well, he's doing a show, and he really wants me to come work on this thing with him. And everyone's like, okay. And so he, like, leaves. Leaves work. Well, years later, I'm working with Sasha co. Yeah. Yeah. And I work with it for a couple weeks, and I go, you know what? I'm gonna remember this guy. I'm gonna ask him about it, you know, Like, I'd work with him for a couple weeks and, you know, kind of built up a little. And I got so after. After one of the. The, like, work days, we're just. It was just like a writing thing. So we're all, like, working on this thing, and everyone's like, oh, hey, man, can I. Can I just ask you a question? Do you know this guy? And I'd, like, tell him his name. Like, you know this dude? And he's like, I don't know. And I'm like, go, I find a picture. I'm like, this. This is the guy. Oh, I found the picture. Yeah, this is the guy. Yeah, he's like, this guy. He would have written. And I even. I even. I looked up the award show because it was like. I was like, I'll find an award show. He would have written for you on this award show.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
You know, and he's like, I don't. I've never heard of this guy. I don't know who this guy is.
Andrew Santino
Wow.
Guest/Comedian
Right?
Advertiser/Host
Wow.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Yeah. Didn't they Call Trey, too. Huh? Somebody called Trey Parker and said, do you know this guy?
Colton Dunn
Allegedly. This is all. This is all hearsay information.
Guest/Comedian
So how does it start to get.
Colton Dunn
All right, so here we go. Things start unfolding like this. And it all happened with the very keen eyes of a writing assistant who was looking through the sketches that everybody submits for the table reads and was reading a sketch and was like, I'm fairly certain I've seen this sketch before. He found the sketch. It was like. It might have been YouTube sketch, like some other sketch group had performed this sketch. Yeah, I just stolen it written or whatever. And so he brings it to people, and then it just starts to unravel. And it starts to unravel a big way. Yeah, because he had, like, integrated himself personally with a bunch of people on the show. He had made inroads. He had done all this weird stuff, and as things start, like. Like, falling apart, it's like everything is falling apart. And he gets.
Advertiser/Host
He.
Colton Dunn
Somebody meets with the south park guys, and allegedly, they're told that he never. That he did work with them. They know who he is, but they don't want to work with him anymore.
Andrew Santino
Oh, so he did work there.
Guest/Comedian
That.
Colton Dunn
There was. There was an issue that he had worked with those guys, not necessarily on South Park. It was. It was weird. But this is all alleged, whatever it was.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
And it was enough for the show to go, you know what? Yeah, I think we're gonna let this guy go. Yeah, they let this guy go because that also had to do with some of the other stuff that he was doing with other employees on the show.
Andrew Santino
And I want to tell you what. He leaves. I'm gonna say it.
Colton Dunn
He leaves.
Bobby Lee
Okay.
Colton Dunn
You can say he leaves the show. And the next day. Yeah, the next day. And I'm. I'm in the office, by the way, when this happens. A woman comes into the office.
Andrew Santino
If you say allegedly again, I'm gonna go crazy.
Colton Dunn
I was there. I'll say. What I saw was a woman came into the office and walked. Walked over into, like, the business affairs area.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And then allegedly, what happened was, is she said, hey, man, I haven't gotten paid for all the animation that I've done for this show. Said, what? We did pay. We paid the guy who was animating it. And she goes, no, that's my husband. He wrote the pieces. I animated them. Why haven't I been paid? And they had, like, purchased, like, very. At the time. This is, like, years ago. So the. The animation equipment that they had purchased for this dude was Astronom Nicole and he just got Matt. Like, it was. It was. It was insane. And so in. Like, he. He had. So he was married and that was a huge thing that people did not.
Bobby Lee
No one knew he was married.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
We don't need to talk about it
Colton Dunn
because, you know, even the fact that she was to watch this, I don't want to have to deal with that.
Bobby Lee
We all across.
Colton Dunn
You guys get it. Everybody's watching it. Gets it. This happened to your friend. This happened to your girl. Just hold your homie.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And we went ham on this guy.
Andrew Santino
We went crazy.
Colton Dunn
We went crazy on this guy. And I.
Guest/Comedian
And.
Colton Dunn
And one of the crazy things that I did. And this will give you some more story before I. Before I. I will tell.
Andrew Santino
Why. Why are you gonna say his name?
Colton Dunn
I will. Because I'm away. I'm away to the end. Because. Because there's kind of funny now because I guarantee you there's people who are watching this. There's people who are watching this who. Who will know who he is. And they'll be like, no, that guy. I love that guy. I love what that guy does.
Guest/Comedian
Yes.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
So, you know, so. Yeah. And so
Andrew Santino
you don't care.
Colton Dunn
I don't care. Okay, here's the other story.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
So one of the things I did when I was mad is I posted on IMDb because on IMDb back then people had profiles like the actor. On IMDb you would have a profile, or a writer would have a profile. You would have all your stuff. But you could comment on that. And I commented and I said, this guy's a liar.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Like, don't trust him. Yeah, you know, whatever.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, he's a heartbreaker, dude.
Colton Dunn
Years later, I get a message from IMDb from some guy in like, the UK and I believe it was in Ireland or somewhere.
Andrew Santino
That's right. That's right. That's right.
Colton Dunn
You remember this? Yeah, I remember.
Andrew Santino
I remember. Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And I. This theater got in touch with me and they were like, this guy came to our theater.
Andrew Santino
I remember.
Colton Dunn
I remember he said he worked with Mad tv, that he was with, you know, south park, all this stuff. He, you know, we gave a bunch of money like, he. To help us get our theater off the ground. Was it Amsterdam and he's gone now. It wasn't Amsterdam. That's where I. But this was like in like somewhere else, like, just obstinate with these people's money.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And just dipped. Yeah, Allegedly.
Andrew Santino
Allegedly. Yeah. But I remember that.
Colton Dunn
And now he's made. He's Made a sort of a. His. His career now, I think is somewhat.
Andrew Santino
Bath mate. Bath mate for your penis.
Colton Dunn
Ooh, I have one.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I know. Barely bath. Let's get the crap.

Shannon Maldonado
Oh,
Colton Dunn
well now, years later, years later, there's a lot of like comedy and stuff going on, on, on in social media.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Guest/Comedian
Right.
Advertiser/Host
And.
Colton Dunn
And a lot of people get a lot of heat out of kind of doing sort of rage baiting in the political atmosphere.
Andrew Santino
Right, right.
Colton Dunn
And so like, if, say there's like some big story, like, I don't know, there was like this, this guy from, from California named Devin Nunes or something. I don't know if anybody remembers this guy, but there was something about maybe a cow in the news about him, like upset or he wanted to have sex with a cow.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And then somebody started this insta Twitter account called Devin Nunez, Cowboy cow.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
You know, and then that Twitter account like starts talking, you know, or like maybe something else happens. Hunter Biden's laptop starts in Instagram. Well, now that's what this guy does. He starts these like, focused, like social media, like buzz story things.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And like gets a lot of people who you know, are usually like left leaning and angry to be like, yeah, I like this. Oh, he's giving it to him. He's really razzing. The guy's on. Right. And then they, they go and follow this guy.
Andrew Santino
He's a left. And is he lefty?
Colton Dunn
I mean, I. Yeah, yeah. Well, that's. I mean that's what he is presenting.
Andrew Santino
I'm a lefty.
Colton Dunn
That's what he's presenting in his, in his thing. But again, look, I don't trust this person.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I don't think he could be a mighty. He could be.
Colton Dunn
I don't think he has politics. I think he's doing what works.
Bobby Lee
No, I think that. Okay, there is this guy who just. Who's been lately blowing up on Tick Tock and he's been showing up on my algorithm. And this is a guy I know to be a pathological liar, but the same thing where everyone's sort of just like gassing him up and he's just. Is on like the right side of politics and he's just like making it out to be. He's just this like justice warrior. And I'm over here like with just knowing all the lies he's ever told is so crazy.
Andrew Santino
It's crazy.
Bobby Lee
It's crazy. But they find their way. These little schemy bastards find their way.
Andrew Santino
They do. They do.
Bobby Lee
They do.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, they do. So what's the name
Guest/Comedian
now? Because of the social media stuff.
Colton Dunn
What's that?
Guest/Comedian
You're saying he's successful now?
Colton Dunn
I don't know how successful he is.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, we don't.
Colton Dunn
I don't know how successful the guy is. And again, this is all allegedly. But it's my right not to like this guy. And you don't have to like him either.
Andrew Santino
But I think he's a piece of.
Colton Dunn
And his name is.
Andrew Santino
I feel like this guy is revengeful and maybe not say his name because he, because he looks like a vengeful person.
Colton Dunn
He could be.
Bobby Lee
He also looks like he's probably got time in his hand.
Guest/Comedian
Yes. Did you hear about how someone else purchased the website for. And then.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, he does, he does it. He does it constantly. Anytime you've heard that story, he's usually the guy who bought the thing.
Andrew Santino
Wow.
Colton Dunn
I think, I think Space Force. I think he got. He got spaceforce.com and then they were like. Or dot.gov they were like, we gotta buy it back from him or whatever.
Andrew Santino
Oh, that's a good idea.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, he's.
Andrew Santino
That's steal people's.
Bobby Lee
People do it all the time. Bobby, you're so late to the game.
Andrew Santino
Elon Musk dot com. But can we buy that? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
I gotta start my website.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. I mean, we should start buying, like. Because somebody bought Happy Birthday.
Bobby Lee
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Andrew Santino
Some old lady I heard bought Happy Birthday.
Colton Dunn
What do you. She bought the website. Happy Birthday.
Andrew Santino
No, no, no, no. The song. The rights to the song, I think, again, what do.
Colton Dunn
You can't do it anymore.
Andrew Santino
No, you. It's supposed.
Colton Dunn
No, you. Wait, the rights. The rights.
Andrew Santino
Okay, maybe I'm wrong.
Bobby Lee
I thought maybe it was happybirthday.com.
Andrew Santino
no, no, no. What I'm saying is. Is back in the 40s or something.
Bobby Lee
Thing.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, maybe I'm wrong.
Colton Dunn
I think you're right. Somebody bought the rights to Happy Birthday and those recently expired, like, in the last, like, five or six years. And so now people can. Now it is public domain.
Andrew Santino
I didn't say it. I never sang it.
Colton Dunn
Because before that.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. I don't want anybody.
Colton Dunn
You could. But that's also. That. That's also. People can tell how old you are as a. As a performer and an actor if you get worried about singing Happy Birthday.
Andrew Santino
I know, I'm old.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. I'm 55. How old are you now, huh?
Shannon Maldonado
Huh?
Andrew Santino
How old are you now? What?
Guest/Comedian
That we.
Shannon Maldonado
That.
Andrew Santino
I mean, you got to be in your 40s. Huh?
Colton Dunn
I mean, maybe almost. Almost.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Almost there.
Andrew Santino
And then after Te and Peel, you Superstore, then.
Colton Dunn
I was on Superstore.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. For how many seasons?
Colton Dunn
We did six seasons of Super.
Andrew Santino
That's amazing.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, that was tight.
Andrew Santino
It was tight.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
I.
Colton Dunn
Right. At Universal, dude.
Andrew Santino
Really? Yeah.
Bobby Lee
That was a big heartbreak one for you.
Andrew Santino
I know. Yeah. I remember I auditioned a couple times. Oh, really? Oh, wow.
Bobby Lee
You tested?
Andrew Santino
I tested, yeah.
Colton Dunn
Mateo.
Andrew Santino
I don't remember, but I remember character
Advertiser/Host
was for Nico Santos role.
Bobby Lee
I think it was.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, it was Nico Santos. Yeah. Yeah. But anyway, he got it and congratulations. Yeah, yeah, but that's a good run. Six years.
Colton Dunn
Yeah. I played a guy who used a wheelchair.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. 20. They was. It was that when they changed the amount of episodes or you still had 22 episodes there?
Colton Dunn
We did.
Guest/Comedian
We had a few.
Colton Dunn
22 episode seasons.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. Good.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, we. Yeah, we made it because we made it to over 100 episodes.
Andrew Santino
Oh, that's amazing. Yeah, she made a little chunk there.
Colton Dunn
We did, but not like we would have back in the day. Dude.
Andrew Santino
I know.
Colton Dunn
Right at the end. Right at the very last season, they were like. The people from NBC came in. They're like, hey, we're so excited. We're gonna be launching Peacock. You guys are gonna be one of the big shows launching on Peacock?
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Oh, cool. And they'. You want to promote it? And we're like, oh, okay. Well, yeah. Well, what's. What's the. So what do we get paid for being on Peacock? Normally after this kind of thing, we go, you know, you sell into syndication. You make a lot of money. And they're like, oh, no, we're not doing. We already own it.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, we already paid you. Yeah. What a ripoff.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, dude, it was.
Andrew Santino
It's like the Toyota. Do you remember the Toyota Yaras?
Colton Dunn
Oh, yeah, those. Those. Yeah, those ads you guys did.
Andrew Santino
Matt. Tv. Yeah, yeah. They made us say Toyota Yaras a lot. So we do a sketch of, like, a dating. Right. So Arden Marine would be like, my date or whatever. In a sketch. I go, you want to come inside my Toyota Yaris? And then look in the camera. Toyota Yaris, right? And they made.
Colton Dunn
And then I was in one of those. Remember?
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
I was the valet.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, you were the valet. Yeah, yeah. And then I asked. I go, do we get extra money for this? This? Yeah. And they go, no, absolutely not. Yeah. It's just a way that you can make extra. You. I mean. And then, you know. I mean. But we're the salesman. Yeah, yeah. And what's the tool.
Colton Dunn
That was a lot of money you guys should have gotten for that.
Andrew Santino
Are you being real?
Colton Dunn
I'm being real. Yeah, you should have gotten paid for that.
Andrew Santino
But then I crashed it. Do you remember, or.
Shannon Maldonado
No?
Colton Dunn
Great. You crashed the top. Did you crash it on the lot? Because I feel like we were driving it on the lot.
Guest/Comedian
Not.
Andrew Santino
No, no. I took. I took the keys.
Colton Dunn
Oh, no.
Andrew Santino
And I went in an alleyway and I scratched the side of the car.
Guest/Comedian
A common theme.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. And I brought it back, and then Salzman was screaming at me,
Colton Dunn
and I
Andrew Santino
go, we don't get paid. You know what?
Guest/Comedian
That was your argument. Yeah, yeah.
Advertiser/Host
Why not?
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
You know, I mean, it's a little late for that argument.
Andrew Santino
What do you mean?
Guest/Comedian
What do you mean?
Colton Dunn
Well, it's sort of like. I mean, you've already crashed the car. Like, before you crash.
Andrew Santino
I scrape. Scraped it a little bit on the side of a.
Guest/Comedian
Okay.
Colton Dunn
All right.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
Damage.
Andrew Santino
Remember Las Palmas? You know those alleyways? It was kind of industrial.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like. It's like a European city over here. You're just weaving in and out.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
Like France. Yeah, yeah. What's that movie Ronin.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
Ronin.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. Ronan. That was a good one.
Colton Dunn
Seen that movie?
Bobby Lee
No, it's.
Colton Dunn
Check it out. You'll like it, man. You like cars that down?
Guest/Comedian
I like cars.
Colton Dunn
You like cars going fast. You like heists usually.
Guest/Comedian
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
You'll like it.
Andrew Santino
Okay, Good long form improv too. I never learned how to do it.
Colton Dunn
Oh, you do it all the time.
Andrew Santino
No, I don't. No. When I remember, I used to guys see you guys at that IO, what's that called? That was what it called improv Olympic. Yeah, the Upright Citizens Brigade theater, whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It'd be you guys on stage, I'd come check it out.
Colton Dunn
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
And you guys do long for form.
Colton Dunn
And I don't necessarily remember you coming to a bunch of my improv shows.
Andrew Santino
I did, I did. I wouldn't even say hi. I just be in the back.
Advertiser/Host
I love it.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. But I remember thinking to myself, that's a skill set that I don't know. Teach us, Hud.
Guest/Comedian
Is that what boom, Chicago was? Was that long form also?
Colton Dunn
No, not really. When I did, I mean, I think they do long form now, but when I did it was like short form improv. So it was probably more like who's is it anyway?
Andrew Santino
Gotcha. Yeah, but who. How do you explain to people listening what long form improv is?
Colton Dunn
Well, long form improv is. Is. Is one of those things where it is very much what it sounds like you can think of. Like improv long. Yeah. Like, whose line is it anyway? Scene where they might go, all right, we're gonna do a scene. And during this scene, while they're acting it out, I'm gonna ring a little bell. And when I ring it, they're gonna go backwards. And then when I ring it again, they'll go forwards again. All right, now just think says there's no bell. It's just two people who just do a scene. Yeah, but no, nobody, nobody has to ring a bell.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, but it's long.
Colton Dunn
It could be long. Sure.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. What's the longest long form that you've done?
Guest/Comedian
Well, you did the Schwartz and Friends
Colton Dunn
thing, which was the longest show, I bet.
Andrew Santino
The longest long form improv show you've done.
Guest/Comedian
Oh, boy.
Andrew Santino
With one. One premise, probably 20 minutes.
Shannon Maldonado
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Dude, I have no idea.
Andrew Santino
You don't know? You don't time yourself. There's no timer.
Colton Dunn
I mean, I don't know what the.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, we did 40. There's never that.
Colton Dunn
No, not like it's not like an endurance thing. Like we're not like we're gonna get longer. Every show is getting longer.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, but that should be in a thing of, like, the longest long form ever done. I mean, a Guinness Book of World.
Colton Dunn
I mean, there are they definitely done, like, improv marathons where they try to keep an improv show going. Oh, but I don't know.
Andrew Santino
Boring.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, boring.
Advertiser/Host
The longest one is 150 hour performance set in 2000. 2015.
Colton Dunn
Boom.
Andrew Santino
Whoa.
Colton Dunn
Who said it?
Bobby Lee
150 hour.
Advertiser/Host
That's from Keith Saltojanes and Rob O'. Connor.
Andrew Santino
IOS in front of a live audience.
Advertiser/Host
Yeah, iOS surprisingly.
Colton Dunn
I thought it would be here.
Shannon Maldonado
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
When?
Advertiser/Host
2015.
Colton Dunn
2015. I was here.
Andrew Santino
You're jealous. Under 50 hours, dude.
Colton Dunn
Definitely not.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I think it's all. Dude, you can do it too. Colton.
Colton Dunn
Congratulations.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I mean, however. Yeah, that's got to be the boring. Most boring show you've ever seen. Maybe imagine somebody watching that for how many hours?
Advertiser/Host
150 hours.
Andrew Santino
Did they eat?
Colton Dunn
I mean, at some point, it has to, like, get good, though. It has to get really.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I see.
Colton Dunn
You know, at one point, it was probably like, people were like, oh, my God, I can't believe I'm here for this. Yeah, I'm watching this happen.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Bobby Lee
Did you guys follow you row? Kelsey, the girl who rode so solo from California to Hawaii by herself.
Colton Dunn
Oh, no.
Bobby Lee
No one's followed her.
Andrew Santino
I've been watching her.
Bobby Lee
She arrived.
Colton Dunn
Maybe. I. I think I may have seen. Did she swim or something?
Bobby Lee
No, she had to clean her boat underneath.
Colton Dunn
I just saw a bunch of people, like, we're like, this is the scariest thing I've ever seen. Yeah, okay. I saw that.
Andrew Santino
She's on a. Like, a little canoe thing.
Bobby Lee
Yes.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, I've seen her on the Internet.
Colton Dunn
What is she doing?
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah.
Colton Dunn
What the Is.
Bobby Lee
Okay, let me tell you. So basically, she was just out to kind of set the new women's record. But as I think, like, like half, three quarters of the way through, she realized that she was actually like, 500 miles, like, ahead or something like that, ahead of the men's record. And so she smashed both, and she arrived in Hawaii two days ago.
Colton Dunn
Oh, boy.
Andrew Santino
Boy.
Colton Dunn
She just has the record.
Andrew Santino
She has the record.
Bobby Lee
Yeah. But I mean, alone in the. You know, in the Pacific, just night.
Andrew Santino
I don't know.
Bobby Lee
Alone 150 hours of. I.
Andrew Santino
That's. I mean, there's not a boat in
Bobby Lee
front of her going, no, there isn't. She was alone.
Advertiser/Host
No one's watching.
Guest/Comedian
She was alone.
Colton Dunn
There's a boat in front of her.
Bobby Lee
There was so much.
Andrew Santino
What Are you doing. I'm not being sexist.
Bobby Lee
No, I think.
Andrew Santino
Oh, I wasn't even saying that. Why are you saying. Why are you even implying that I wasn't. Yeah, Yeah. I think it's good. I believe her. I believe her.
Bobby Lee
Okay. So a lot of people believe.
Andrew Santino
I believe it.
Guest/Comedian
There was obviously a boat of dudes.
Colton Dunn
That's not what believe.
Andrew Santino
Always. It's not.
Bobby Lee
There's a lot of naysayers that basically like conspiracies that are like, oh, she wasn't there alone. But this girl was alone.
Andrew Santino
I could tell.
Bobby Lee
Alone.
Andrew Santino
Okay. Cuz a lot of the camera shots of her is. It's.
Bobby Lee
Yeah, she was just well equipped and she had all the gear, all the water. Yeah. She's incredible.
Andrew Santino
Yeah. What happens when you run out of water out there?
Bobby Lee
What do you mean run out of water?
Colton Dunn
You mean, like, of drinkable water you've watched?
Andrew Santino
Yes. Colton.
Advertiser/Host
Yes.
Colton Dunn
The craziest question. You are in the middle of ocean.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Katie Dippold
Where.
Colton Dunn
What happens if you run out of water?
Andrew Santino
This is.
Colton Dunn
I'd be like, this is how she did it.
Bobby Lee
Yeah. And there was.
Colton Dunn
She's doing it.
Advertiser/Host
Like she took more time.
Bobby Lee
No, because there was a time when she had made so much headway, and then a storm blew her back to shore, basically. And so she was like, crying because she was like, I. I was just, you know, rowing, rowing, rowing. And she got nowhere.
Advertiser/Host
43 days.
Andrew Santino
43 days.
Advertiser/Host
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
I would not make it past fucking Catalina Island. The fact that you think you could
Bobby Lee
get to Catalina is crazy.
Andrew Santino
I bet you money I could.
Colton Dunn
Could you?
Advertiser/Host
Catalina.
Andrew Santino
In a canoe? Yes, we could.
Colton Dunn
A canoe?
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
I mean, I don't, you know, I have not traversed the waters to Catalina. What are the waves like exactly, Bobby,
Bobby Lee
you don't know anything about, like, like wind pattern, nothing? Surf. You couldn't get past this. The brain.
Colton Dunn
I think you could take a canoe out there, man. I don't think.
Andrew Santino
Whatever she was. What was she riding?
Bobby Lee
She had a very.
Colton Dunn
She's like. She's got like a kayak. Look at that.
Bobby Lee
That's like a wider.
Colton Dunn
Look at that thing.
Andrew Santino
Oh, God. Okay.
Bobby Lee
Yeah.
Andrew Santino
All right. So you don't think with that contraption. I wouldn't make it the Catalina. I think it's.
Colton Dunn
I mean, you would know. I would love them just to put you in this thing.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
All right, Go for it.
Guest/Comedian
You just.
Bobby Lee
Yeah, but see, you look at how buff her arms are. Your arms are going to burn, like, after 10 minutes.
Andrew Santino
No, you're not giving me a time limit. It could take five years longer. I Would do my own time.
Colton Dunn
You know what I mean?
Bobby Lee
What if we said like 3 days? Days.
Andrew Santino
I don't know how long it take. I don't know how far Catalina is from the shoreline, you know, I mean,
Colton Dunn
but it should probably take you like a day, I would think.
Bobby Lee
Yeah, you can see it like a straight 24 hours. Yeah. Depending on, you know, Give me a week. Okay.
Andrew Santino
I'll do it in a week.
Bobby Lee
Yeah, yeah.
Guest/Comedian
What is.
Colton Dunn
What does Google say? Can't you just ask?
Guest/Comedian
30.
Colton Dunn
How long?
Advertiser/Host
22 to 30 miles from cattle, from Long beach to Catalina Island.
Andrew Santino
I was 30 miles.
Colton Dunn
That's not that far.
Andrew Santino
I think you can do it, but without, without training.
Colton Dunn
All right, let's do this. Come on. Now can we get. There's got to be. There's got to be a kayak company or some sort of company goes to Catalina Island.
Andrew Santino
Okay.
Advertiser/Host
Are there.
Andrew Santino
Are they orcas?
Bobby Lee
No, no orcas.
Andrew Santino
Okay, no orcas. Are there great whites?
Bobby Lee
There's some whales. There's great whites. For sure.
Andrew Santino
There's great whites.
Colton Dunn
What do you worry about a great white? You're going to be in a giant boat.
Andrew Santino
No, dude, she had to clean it.
Colton Dunn
Look, you don't have to do that. Dude, you're going 30 miles, you're not going to have to clean the boat.
Bobby Lee
Five years, maybe some barnacles, but like 30 miles.
Andrew Santino
Okay, so everyone in this room believes I wouldn't make it.
Colton Dunn
I believe you make it.
Advertiser/Host
He said average. Average rowers at 2 miles per hour would be 11 plus hours.
Bobby Lee
Average.
Andrew Santino
Average.
Colton Dunn
So two days, 15 hours.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, 15 hours.
Bobby Lee
I think Bobby can do it in two days. Days, maybe, yeah.
Guest/Comedian
What's the furthest distance you've traveled? Like on foot or something? I mean, to get to go straight to boat. I'm just curious. It's not a disc or anything.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, dude, not a disc. But how far have you walked?
Andrew Santino
I'm just, I'm not, I'm just curious
Colton Dunn

Shannon Maldonado

Colton Dunn
Yeah. No, I'm 49. I'm just. But. And no, I could not do the stuff that I did. No, it would just be. And more. More so too, because the. You just can't trust the drugs these days, you know?

Andrew Santino
Yeah. Like, yeah, you can't trust the coke.

I remember I. One time I went to a wedding and I played. I played guitar for. This is a. Such a weird wedding. This was in Amsterdam and it was for the bartender of the bar and this woman that he's married. They have now since divorced, but she really wanted somebody to play Wild horses while they walked down the aisle.
Andrew Santino
Wait, wait, what is Wild Horses? The song.

And this guy came in and it was the woman's uncle who was in town for the wedding. And he's like, hey, hey, great job. And I was like, oh, cool. And like, finish peeing. I turn around and he's got a bag of coke out and a knife. Hey,

Andrew Santino
So you got to get a fentanyl test thing.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, but even those, but even then,
Guest/Comedian
like, because don't you just wait for the guy with the knife to do it first?
Andrew Santino
And then you're like, okay, yeah, but
Colton Dunn
what if the thing is he just takes one tiny little, Just one little spec needs to be in the one you do, and that's not going to be in all this other stuff.
Bobby Lee
So, so, yeah, exactly. You can test the wrong part of it and it could be like, oh, it's clean.
Andrew Santino
And we'll just test the part that you're going to snort.
Colton Dunn
Yeah, but then that's tested you now, you. What are you going to snort?

Andrew Santino
I looked it up. Okay. I just want to say I didn't know. I didn't know that. Okay. So my girlfriend and I, we go. I heard this show. Who told me the show was good? Matt Jones. Matt Jones, yeah. So Matt. Matt goes the show. That's the best show on television right now, right? So then I. The other night, Friday night, I go, let's just watch one episode, right? We burn through the whole thing till the morning. Wow. It's not only funny, Right. But it's also scary as fuck. And it's the. The. And the balance between the two is so perfect.

Andrew Santino
That is amazing. What a fucking show, dude. What a show. Did you cast?
Colton Dunn
I drew. If you watch the show, there's a scene where they go over a dry erase board.
Andrew Santino

Colton Dunn
Dippold created the show.

We call her the whole thing about, like, why I even wanted to watch it. And I could have sworn it was,
Colton Dunn
you know, wouldn't I, Bobby Lee, right now, if you could give me a call, I'd appreciate it.
Andrew Santino
Okay.
Advertiser/Host
Producer voice.
Andrew Santino
Producer voice. Oh, my God. Mythical. So I believe it's the strongest show I've seen in a very long time.
Colton Dunn
Okay.
Andrew Santino
Okay. It's got the right amount of humor and scary, like I said. Okay. I think the casting's perfect. Right. And I can't wait for the second season. Are you guys in production?
Colton Dunn
We're going to start writing the second. Second season.
Andrew Santino
Okay, good, good. Because it is. Have you seen it?
Guest/Comedian
The first episode? Yeah, but I got it burned. I want to watch it with my girlfriend saving Seago.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. It's so strong and scary. And you know what I love about the show, too, Colton, is, Is that there's kind of standalone episodes where it's like. Because I don't want to give it away, but there are different creatures and things like mythology on the island that you're, like, super surprised about.
Colton Dunn
It's.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah. Even the subtle humor, like, you know, I. I don't. I'm thinking I'm giving it away. When he's staying at the hotel.
Colton Dunn
Sure.
Andrew Santino
Writing. He's looking at all the game, right?
Colton Dunn
All the different games.
Andrew Santino
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, all the little. Like, if you read them, they're very funny. You know what I mean?
Guest/Comedian
And dark.
Colton Dunn
You know, it's very fun. You know, it's kind of. It's rid of, like, you know, Stephen King, you know, world.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
You know, it's almost, you know, think of like the town in Jaws, but if it was told from the point of View of the mayor of the town.
Andrew Santino
Yes. Yes.
Colton Dunn
You know, so, like, it's a super fun show. I think a lot of people like it. And. And the big thing that I'd love is people who get scared. Like, a lot of people be like, oh, but it's a spooky show, and I get too scared. It draws up my anxiety, so I can't even, like, watch the show. This is not like that. This always has, like, a release for your anxiety. And even if it doesn't have that,
Andrew Santino
I want to make an argument. Can I make an argument against set watching the show? Yeah. Yeah. Me and my girlfriend screamed.
Colton Dunn
Oh, I think it'll get your anxiety up.
Andrew Santino
We screamed during the show many times.
Colton Dunn
But I'll say it like this. So I. We used to watch. We. My wife and I would watch Game of Thrones, and then after Game of Thrones, we would watch an episode of. What was the. The show with the. The two women in New York City. Broad City. We'd watch an episode of Broad City. We just watch like. Like a palette cleanser, pallet cleanser.
Advertiser/Host
Broad.
Colton Dunn
Broad City. City. So that we just, like, have a laugh. Yeah.
Andrew Santino
Go.
Colton Dunn
All right. Okay, okay, okay. Because that was a little intense. So I feel like, what.
Andrew Santino
What.
Colton Dunn
What Widow's Bay does is. It does all of that in one show.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
That you still get. You know, the raw.
Guest/Comedian
Even.
Andrew Santino
Even the font is good. Yeah, Right, right. It's got a love that Widows Bay, like a Salem's Lot, you know, I mean, like, it has a 70s ish. You know what I mean? Font classical.
Colton Dunn
We were watching a lot of that stuff in the room. We would always have, like, times in the room where people would, like, put up their face. Favorite, like, horror movie clips and, like, scenes.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
And stuff. You know, so there's a lot of mood in the. In that room.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
Building.
Andrew Santino
Yeah.
Colton Dunn
As well as just the writing of the story.
Andrew Santino
It's so good. And then it's like at the end of that. I'm not gonna reveal it. But.

Andrew Santino
Yeah. So that's probably what happened. Yeah. And it's possible.

I think what was weird about it is that we had texted back and forth.
Andrew Santino
Okay.

Andrew Santino
Okay.
Colton Dunn
And if you scroll back in there, you'll find one that's like, hey, man, I developed this show for you.
Advertiser/Host
Wait, please.
Colton Dunn
I'd love for you to get together with me and Joel Zadik and talk about.
Andrew Santino
There was no. Because you would think that there would be a table text before, but he never texted me.
Colton Dunn
Well, it was so old. They. It erases after a few years here.
Andrew Santino
Does it really?
Colton Dunn

Hey, I'm Andrew Santino. And I'm Bobby Lee. And we made something completely insane. We took celebrities, we put them in my mom's basement, we throw trivia at them, we hit them with absurd challenges. And then just when they think they know what's happening and we blowed a whole tang of pot. Nobody knows the rules. We barely know the rules. It's chaos.
Bobby Lee
It's comedy.
