[SPEAKER_08]: Bob, we're doing great, Bob Marley.

[SPEAKER_02]: I am held up in a bunker up here in Maine, and I'm waiting for Armageddon, the windstorm, of which nothing is happening right now.

[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, so you're not getting anything are you it now you were born in Portland, man, are you in southern Maine or are you in any other part of that massive yeah, I mean I was actually born in Bangor, but I'm in Portland now, but yeah, so we're not we haven't got slammed with it yet, but they're full force up here, you know, we had that huge windstorm in October, which was that that one came out of nowhere.

[SPEAKER_02]: And we all took it for granted.

[SPEAKER_02]: My wife and I were watching the local news guy and he's like, well, I got gale-force, weds coming out of there, but my wife goes, put it back on shock tank, Bob.

[SPEAKER_08]: This is a shock tank.

[SPEAKER_08]: Oh, shock.

[SPEAKER_08]: Put it on, oh, shock tank, Bob.

[SPEAKER_02]: There we go.

[SPEAKER_02]: We are clocking the morning of birthstree comes through the living room.

[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, huh, it seems to be developing for something.

[SPEAKER_02]: That's nothing.

[SPEAKER_02]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I'm down there in my underwear in a pair of flip-lops and a chainsaw.

[SPEAKER_02]: Cutting the tree up.

[SPEAKER_02]: He yelling at me, what, Bob, Bob?

[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, what, babe?

[SPEAKER_02]: You go, you need to put some clothes on.

[SPEAKER_02]: I might get worried about my outfit.

[SPEAKER_02]: Is there's a tree in the living room right now?

[SPEAKER_02]: Probably a little more pressing.

[SPEAKER_08]: You're a true manor.

[SPEAKER_08]: You know after with the chainsaw in your boxes, now listen, Bob.

[SPEAKER_08]: I got a talk.

[SPEAKER_08]: I want to do some main talk because I split my my time in Southern Florida, and then I'm up in Hancock Producer told me up in Hancock County, dude.

[SPEAKER_02]: I said those guys like that you guys don't you don't even know what they're saying

[SPEAKER_02]: All right.

[SPEAKER_02]: We're gonna do it.

[SPEAKER_02]: Bear my flesh on your life's plate or mirror coming up from someplace else here Here's the deal.

[SPEAKER_08]: All right.

[SPEAKER_08]: Let me give you the background.

[SPEAKER_08]: I know

[SPEAKER_08]: Here's the thing Bob Marley, you know Maine, you were born in Maine, Maine's a big part of what you talk about in this is my observation.

[SPEAKER_08]: All right, growing up and having summers up there in Hancock County, Hancock Point specifically, now I live in Hancock and growing up there, it was always fascinating, it was kind of quaint, it was kind of cute.

[SPEAKER_08]: There were men that my father would have conversations with, where I literally would not understand what the man was saying.

[SPEAKER_08]: There was a guy that was a guy Tommy Andrews that ran a boat yet, and he would have a conversation and he had this kind of slow-witted sidekick toot that it was Tommy and too.

[SPEAKER_08]: And so he'd be talking to my father, and our yacht was a 17-foot-bossed umbrella, so that's what I grew up on.

[SPEAKER_08]: And this is, I will give you what it sounded like.

[SPEAKER_08]: Tommy would come down and talk to my dad and say,

[SPEAKER_08]: Well, do you quite Bill, I don't want you there, son of two, two, god damn it, go over there, go there, they're saying like that.

[SPEAKER_08]: And I would be sitting there just with my mouth to get my father be having a regular conversation with him.

[SPEAKER_08]: And it was quaint.

[SPEAKER_08]: Let me tell you Bob, my impression now, the locals have been in God County, Maine has gotten really pissed off, Bob, it's a pissed off state right now.

[SPEAKER_08]: And I want your take on it because you live there, my friend.

[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, well, listen, when you have a total amount of maybe three weeks of sunshine during the year, there's not a lot to look forward to.

[SPEAKER_09]: You know, I know.

[SPEAKER_02]: Like we just had minus 24 degrees.

[SPEAKER_02]: Like every morning we woke up for like three weeks in a row.

[SPEAKER_02]: Like you wonder why people are disgruntled.

[SPEAKER_02]: Like it shouldn't hurt to go outside as a person.

[SPEAKER_02]: You shouldn't go outside and just be like, I'm not going to make it to the car.

[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not.

[SPEAKER_02]: This is not going to happen.

[SPEAKER_02]: Like the only thing people do in Maine is plot their dismount.

[SPEAKER_02]: Like, when you get older, everyone's like, well, we'll get out of here at some point.

[SPEAKER_18]: When they're being paroled from prison.

[SPEAKER_18]: I'm going to join tonight.

[SPEAKER_18]: I've got something set up, I guess.

[SPEAKER_18]: Her sister's got a double-wide in Ocawa.

[SPEAKER_18]: That's probably when we'll make our move.

[SPEAKER_08]: Look, you think he's doing stick buzz.

[SPEAKER_08]: He's talking about the weather.

[SPEAKER_08]: It is.

[SPEAKER_08]: It is weather related.

[SPEAKER_08]: I swear to God.

[SPEAKER_02]: I know people bring up these guys in Maine.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's funny because they always do seem to have.

[SPEAKER_02]: They always come in and pack.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's always like a the smartest guy in the group that does the speaking and there's always a guy like can you the other guy you meant to yeah yeah like he'll say well I guess we could bring it around the other side and he goes yeah don't don't just shut up cow I'll take care of it you know it's always a collection of guys you feel like you know they would either save a puppy or build a still in the yard like you don't go

[SPEAKER_02]: you can't and you can't tell you can't identify him.

[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah like the wicked nice adult there's also an undertone of like yeah some's going on there I don't know.

[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah you just a there's that undercurrent of a little bit of a hostility and you know I'll tell you something though and this the way I roll up there I enjoy my family don't get me wrong I enjoy the summer

[SPEAKER_08]: But I enjoy and always have, maybe the way I was raised, I enjoy the people that live up their year-round more because they get the whole summer thing.

[SPEAKER_08]: And you just can't have a summer community anywhere without that level of elitism that people have, where people are just hanging out up there and it's just like, oh, Biff,

[SPEAKER_08]: Biff, where are we going to bring the picnic on Saturday and you know everybody else is like that oh god damn it, they're just so full of crap.

[SPEAKER_08]: I can't even believe it, you know, and I'm mowing that god damn lawn.

[SPEAKER_08]: I mean, it's the role, it's the way they roll up there.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's you know, main people are kind of like people from England, you know, where they're smiling, like going, oh, wonderful to see you isn't it, and they have that phone of, you know, it's really not.

[SPEAKER_02]: And they're always called hardy.

[SPEAKER_02]: Main people are always called hardy.

[SPEAKER_02]: All they're hardy manners, which is basically means miserable.

[SPEAKER_02]: You know, like you hear people in Maine, they'll say something like this, so they'll say, it's not that bad up here as long as you can.

[SPEAKER_02]: You know, if you can get through December, January, February, March, April, half a May, you know what I mean?

[SPEAKER_02]: You'll be Irish, it's horrible, really.

[SPEAKER_02]: That's my life now that I think of it's been horrible.

[SPEAKER_08]: You know, I look at families, you know, and you see, maybe in a movie, I don't see it in real life.

[SPEAKER_08]: I see these families where there'll be greetings with hugs and kisses and family members will say, I'm so glad to see you and they're like, how have you been, hello?

[SPEAKER_08]: That is the polar opposite with my family.

[SPEAKER_08]: There is a, not smiling.

[SPEAKER_08]: My main relatives, when I will see them, I will, I, in many cases, it's been multi years, where six years will pass, and I'll see like a cousin, and I'm, Bob, I am not exactly you know I'm telling the truth or I'll see a cousin mine, and I'll say, hello my goal.

[SPEAKER_08]: And that's it.

[SPEAKER_08]: Well, thanks.

[SPEAKER_08]: Thanks.

[SPEAKER_02]: I'm so glad I have to see me in six years.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's almost staring at you like he's sniffing you out, like you might be a part of some kind of Russian dossier.

[SPEAKER_02]: That's what.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's just a goal.

[SPEAKER_05]: That's not a whole bunch of people.

[SPEAKER_05]: Warp out, will you?

[SPEAKER_05]: Michael out, will you?

[SPEAKER_02]: That's it.

[SPEAKER_02]: That's it.

[SPEAKER_02]: That's the way to the eyeball.

[SPEAKER_02]: You never know where they're coming from.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's a very, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's definitely an interesting place to live.

[SPEAKER_02]: You know?

[SPEAKER_08]: You've been added a long time.

[SPEAKER_08]: You've got to love it if you've been doing it as long as you've been doing above.

[SPEAKER_02]: I love it, and I'd love to come to DC because it's, I tell the audience all the time.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's a very well-organized city.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's all the streets are numbered and lettered.

[SPEAKER_02]: You could, you know, if you like to drink, you can go out and drink, and then you find your hotel room.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's like a game of battleship every night.

[SPEAKER_02]: You know, how old is 47?

[SPEAKER_02]: I found it.

[SPEAKER_08]: You've been traveling around is there any part of the country and I know, you know, you've seen lots of your stand up.

[SPEAKER_08]: So I mean, it's not just main, but you know, you you identify yourself as a mainer and you do a lot of that is there any region because I'm always curious about this outside of New England where your stuff where people track with it, are there any, because you think in terms of

[SPEAKER_08]: I guess the Washington D.C. area is a very transient area and then you talk about that let's say the East Coast of Florida, which is a populated by a lot of New Yorkers and people down there, are there regions of the country where you find more of a New England influence that you'll get displaced New Englanders everywhere.

[SPEAKER_02]: And then the places that they don't like, if I go to Florida, I'll just give them a hard time.

[SPEAKER_02]: I'll make people have no idea what

[SPEAKER_02]: Like you know, I tell everybody I'm like because I'm 50 now, but I tell people on states I go I'm only 18 years old look at me This is what it does I think I went to Arizona and I went to the I was in a temporary Arizona.

[SPEAKER_02]: I went to the mall at noon And it was packed.

[SPEAKER_02]: It was bad.

[SPEAKER_02]: I said, who does anybody work out here?

[SPEAKER_02]: In New England, like people walk around with like three crack yellow toenails that barely made it through January, I tried to explain to them what it's like to live up here.

[SPEAKER_02]: I have a plow on my truck because I'm just splurging cash, I have a plow on my truck because it's necessary.

[SPEAKER_02]: We had 16 inches like a week and a half ago.

[SPEAKER_02]: My mother calls me word for word on the phone.

[SPEAKER_02]: She calls me, she goes, are you gonna plow me tomorrow?

[SPEAKER_02]: I go, well, I'll remove the snow from your yad, maybe, but maybe we should change the phrase.

[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, Bobby, Bobby, I really need to be plowed.

[SPEAKER_02]: I have to be plowed twice once and I want them to morning.

[SPEAKER_02]: If you can't plow me, could you send one of your friends over to plow my man?

[SPEAKER_02]: It's my mother's honor.

[SPEAKER_02]: I call my mother the Irish Catholic Guild Distribution Center.

[SPEAKER_16]: Oh, my God.

[SPEAKER_16]: Oh, no.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's the last 10 months with you.

[SPEAKER_02]: Broken both of her hips and her back.

[SPEAKER_02]: Wow, and yeah, yeah, she's back.

[SPEAKER_02]: She's Irish though.

[SPEAKER_02]: She's top.

[SPEAKER_02]: She's back.

[SPEAKER_02]: She's on the walk.

[SPEAKER_02]: I've got the walk I've gone on.

[SPEAKER_02]: We go to pick her up for supper.

[SPEAKER_02]: We're taking her over to Governor's restaurant.

[SPEAKER_16]: Oh my god, I love Governor.

[SPEAKER_08]: I'm talking about Governor's all the time.

[SPEAKER_08]: It's a good day.

[SPEAKER_08]: You isn't it, Bob?

[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, oh, it's wicked shop.

[SPEAKER_02]: I pull into the yard, she comes out with her walker, and she's got her walker, and she's like, she sees us in the truck.

[SPEAKER_02]: I roll the window down.

[SPEAKER_02]: I said, Mom, I'm coming out to help you.

[SPEAKER_02]: I don't need you.

[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't need you.

[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, today, Bobby.

[SPEAKER_02]: I don't need you to borrow, and I don't need you right now.

[SPEAKER_02]: So we're fighting in the driveway, and it's like literally 18 minutes for her to get to the car.

[SPEAKER_02]: And my 10-year-olds in the back seat, he's like, Dad, can we just leave her in the driveway?

[SPEAKER_02]: I'm stopping.

[SPEAKER_02]: This is horrible.

[SPEAKER_08]: How young is your beautiful mom?

[SPEAKER_02]: She loves mains.

[SPEAKER_02]: She's from Maine.

[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know who's been charged with that by the way.

[SPEAKER_02]: Why can't we get, we can't put anybody on that for a couple.

[SPEAKER_02]: He, on Musk, just shot three rockets in this space 200,000 miles.

[SPEAKER_02]: Two of them came back down and landed on the same spot.

[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he can't take 15 minutes and solve the tennis ball.

[SPEAKER_08]: Some sort of technology to go under the Walker, that might be the last week.

[SPEAKER_02]: She goes, good.

[SPEAKER_02]: If you're out, could you stop at Walmart and get me four cans of tennis balls?

[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, sure enough, Billy, Jean, you're playing doubles over there.

[UNKNOWN]: Oh, crap.

[SPEAKER_08]: Here's it.

[SPEAKER_08]: I got to lay this any with governors because governors for those of you around the country don't know it's a chain restaurant up in Maine.

[SPEAKER_08]: It is it is where the locals go and if you spend enough time up there it's where you know even visitors can go there.

[SPEAKER_08]: The thing I noticed about governors Bob and I don't know whether you're aware of this, you know it is a health food restaurant when you go into the men's room and

[SPEAKER_02]: And also they have, when you walk in they've got your cases full of pies, pies, I showcase, yes, everything's lovely, like in a dimly lit wheel of death.

[SPEAKER_02]: And I was in there with my mother and I saw I looked at it.

[SPEAKER_02]: It was another couple old main couple and one guy looks at it.

[SPEAKER_18]: Well, I don't know mother.

[SPEAKER_18]: I'm like that.

[SPEAKER_18]: That's not right.

[SPEAKER_08]: And don't you think main people because of the harshness, you know, you talked about the 50 thing.

[SPEAKER_08]: It's kind of like dog years.

[SPEAKER_08]: It's kind of, you know, 45 years old in Maine is a little different than 45 years old in the rest of the country.

[SPEAKER_02]: Absolutely.

[SPEAKER_02]: And we have relatives that leave Maine, they're called Snowbirds.

[SPEAKER_02]: We have other words for them.

[SPEAKER_07]: I think it has to do with the fact that at Warner Bros. in the 40s that animation studio was sort of a standalone unit, and there was a lot of talented people trying to make each other laugh.

[SPEAKER_07]: And that's why they weren't catering to anybody except themselves, and they are very time with T.M.

[SPEAKER_07]: OS Classic.

[SPEAKER_07]: talking of animation.

[SPEAKER_07]: Speaking of animation, this is so dark and weird.

[SPEAKER_07]: Deepfake, when you see deepfake stuff on YouTube, it always flips me out a little bit because it's a little too real.

[SPEAKER_07]: The nerds at MIT did a deepfake of President Nixon.

[SPEAKER_07]: Now, we've talked about in the past that in the National Archives, there was a speech written.

[SPEAKER_07]: for if the Apollo 11 astronauts passed on the trip to the moon they were prepared for this consequence and that speech exists and we've actually discussed it on this show they did a deep fake where they took a video of Richard Nixon they got a voiceover artist to read the speech and did what it would have looked like if he had addressed the nation if the astronauts had died when the moon landing happened.

[SPEAKER_03]: Good evening my fellow Americans.

[SPEAKER_03]: Fates has ordained that the man who went to the moon to explore in peace will stay on the moon to rest in peace.

[SPEAKER_03]: Every human being who looks up at the moon in the nights to come will know that there is some corner of another world.

[SPEAKER_03]: it is forever mankind.

[SPEAKER_07]: It's just so weird to look at because it's a lot back to action.

[SPEAKER_07]: Mike, you must watch it.

[SPEAKER_07]: I know I wouldn't have pulled the audio if it wasn't good, but when you see it and they've actually matched it to that late 60s grainy videotape look.

[SPEAKER_00]: It is really weird.

[SPEAKER_07]: Pray, bud.

[SPEAKER_07]: Bless their hearts.

[SPEAKER_07]: That's what the nerds of MIT are doing.

[SPEAKER_07]: And, uh, oh, TikTok is not just dancers, Oscar.

[SPEAKER_07]: Well, apparently, one of the biggest guys that's trending on TikTok right now is name Jacob Peña, because his thumbs are six inches long.

[SPEAKER_13]: One, two, three, four, I declare a thumb work.

[SPEAKER_13]: Never lost a thumb work.

[SPEAKER_13]: Yes, it's real, but the thing is, I have to like dislocate and extend it for to look long.

[SPEAKER_13]: Does anybody you know have a six inch thumb?

[SPEAKER_07]: So if you say Americans are craving entertainment, I say it's out there.

[SPEAKER_07]: You just got to find it.

[SPEAKER_07]: Now if I get it, I'd love to see Richard Nixon talk about his thoughts.

[SPEAKER_08]: Man, I got you in that guy's feeling feeling really, really good.

[SPEAKER_08]: I heard he was in the bank.

[SPEAKER_07]: Mike, I love when powerful people act like toddlers.

[SPEAKER_07]: And I had to actually print out the setup for this happening Congress yesterday.

[SPEAKER_07]: Former Deputy Attorney General Donald Ayer, AYER, testified in Congress yesterday and it was criticizing General William Barr.

[SPEAKER_07]: His opening statement,

[SPEAKER_07]: went really long.

[SPEAKER_07]: So House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler let him keep going, which angered Republican Congressman Louis Gomert, who started feverishly tapping his ring just to be a problem.

[SPEAKER_07]: So here is on the congressional floor yesterday.

[SPEAKER_07]: Listen to this exchange.

[SPEAKER_08]: Listen on the floor is in a committee room.

[SPEAKER_08]: It's probably a committee hearing.

[SPEAKER_07]: It's probably a committee hearing.

[SPEAKER_07]: They were vague here, but listen to him tapping his ring.

[SPEAKER_07]: He's a toddler.

[SPEAKER_11]: But to me, bars crowning dishonesty, is the court of Edward Levy that a recent New York Times article showed hanging in the wall of his conference room.

[SPEAKER_14]: Regular order to witness who can create order, right?

[SPEAKER_14]: Or way beyond way, good order.

[SPEAKER_11]: Why witness who can continue?

[SPEAKER_11]: Can I have one more sentence here on the means?

[SPEAKER_11]: Okay, that's the chairman.

[SPEAKER_12]: We have time to say that the sergeant at arms.

[SPEAKER_12]: When is we can hold the pun to stop the disruption of this meeting?

[SPEAKER_14]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_14]: Well, he's way beyond the chair and if there are no rules about when he has the authority, there's no rules about when you can make noise.

[SPEAKER_07]: You guys voted for that.

[SPEAKER_07]: So, you guys voted for that.

[SPEAKER_08]: That's probably believable.

[SPEAKER_08]: Wow.

[SPEAKER_04]: You know, I don't think we're just doing our jobs.

[SPEAKER_04]: Like everyone's accountable.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_04]: How do these people not held accountable?

[SPEAKER_04]: I don't know.

[SPEAKER_07]: I think that he shouldn't be allowed to wear jewelry.

[SPEAKER_04]: Otherwise, who still wears a class ring, that's right.

[SPEAKER_07]: Come on, only when VCU makes it to the elite eight.

[SPEAKER_07]: That's when I get it out.

[SPEAKER_08]: Yep, whip it out, baby.

[SPEAKER_07]: You mentioned Dr. Fauci's first pitch, a little to the left, so sad.

[SPEAKER_08]: I mean, no, no, it wasn't, I didn't care.

[SPEAKER_08]: I didn't care.

[SPEAKER_08]: He was out there doing it.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, but this is what this is, okay, this is what sucks.

[SPEAKER_04]: He's got

[SPEAKER_04]: Like he had the mechanics 30 years ago.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, he had it, right?

[SPEAKER_04]: So, and even, look, you've seen Boba Bowie, 50 cent.

[SPEAKER_04]: You've had Carly Ray, Jepson, when she was some, like, just, there's people with.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, all the time.

[SPEAKER_04]: What is tough about seeing that happen is because you're rooting for this doctor that we'll go down as a great American hero.

[SPEAKER_04]: Literally an international hero.

[SPEAKER_04]: And one of him, as well.

[SPEAKER_04]: It just feels like this should have been pre-taped.

[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, you know what I mean like a cognitive teeth trumpet Yankees Stadium.

[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, yes Yeah, I think that's that's coming up that uh and the only thing is not going to make that fun There's no crowd.

[SPEAKER_07]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_07]: That's it.

[SPEAKER_07]: So here's not really it would be really exciting Like the world series Yeah, here's here's how the the announcers handle duck this is you don't actually hear cheering or anything because the Parts and so yeah, so this is the announcers reacting to the what some people are calling a wild pitch

[SPEAKER_05]: No, Dr. Anthony Fauci now, not in front of a large crowd, but certainly in front of a national television audience, I would have thought, given just how big a fan he is of baseball, that that would have been something but the man has been so busy, and that's something he probably has had time to practice.

[SPEAKER_05]: I'm speechless, let's go, I'm speechless.

[SPEAKER_07]: He has a lot of time to practice.

[SPEAKER_08]: That's fine.

[SPEAKER_07]: Also last night in Washington, D.C.

[SPEAKER_07]: The first home run of the year was hit by New York Yankee, Gene Carlos Stanton, the Yankee's handily junker John.

[SPEAKER_07]: John Carlow, John Carlow and he had a home run way out.

[SPEAKER_10]: So judge off second with two out.

[SPEAKER_10]: It'll be a one one to stand.

[SPEAKER_10]: And the pitch is swung on and hit high in the air to left

[SPEAKER_10]: That ball is high, that is far, that is gone.

[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, way back in the Los Angeles seats.

[SPEAKER_08]: Who's the play by playing?

[SPEAKER_08]: Is that a radio play by playing?

[SPEAKER_10]: It's a New York radio, John Carlo.

[SPEAKER_10]: No seat, whoa, stopolo.

[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, what a shot and stand.

[SPEAKER_10]: It's a two-run dinner.

[SPEAKER_10]: And the Yankees immediately take a two-nothing leave.

[SPEAKER_08]: What a lovely drink and permit.

[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, he might be a surge on Carlos.

[SPEAKER_10]: Say play Dave was, well, hello.

[SPEAKER_07]: They brought up an interesting point on the ESPN broadcast isn't there's no fan of there to get the ball They got to send like a stadium and play to go clean up the front It's weird.

[SPEAKER_08]: Did you look in?

[SPEAKER_07]: I watched you know Mike.

[SPEAKER_04]: I don't have ESPN I watched it was it was cool to see happen.

[SPEAKER_04]: It was

[SPEAKER_04]: It was, it was depressing.

[SPEAKER_04]: Sorry, it's fine.

[SPEAKER_04]: It was, no, I'm happy you.

[SPEAKER_04]: Look, it was one of these things are like, damn it.

[SPEAKER_04]: I thought this would be cooler.

[SPEAKER_04]: Um, I also, I know that it's probably going to be better when the Fox has like the digital crowd built in.

[SPEAKER_04]: I like, you guys are going to see giant cars.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_04]: And then if the nationals had a better,

[SPEAKER_04]: Layout of like even the cardboard cutouts.

[SPEAKER_04]: That would have been fun all all over the stadium Like the natural like sick as seen something something like that we get the crowd from the natural and put them in with CGI and like in the seventh inning Glenn closed and this and I and I'm I'm spoiled because Mike when you watch the NBA launch here at the end of the month You're gonna see what I mean when Disney World made it look like all completely different game where you're

[SPEAKER_08]: You have an idea.

[SPEAKER_08]: What's that?

[SPEAKER_08]: It's got a great idea.

[SPEAKER_08]: How much does it cost to get cardboard cutouts?

[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, we can't.

[SPEAKER_04]: They have, they have all of the, it cost $300 and you can't put a logo on it.

[SPEAKER_04]: You can't put anything.

[SPEAKER_04]: I can put you, you're likeness, but I can't put a logo or website or anything.

[SPEAKER_08]: Get like a picture without a logo, could we?

[SPEAKER_08]: I'm not talking about cardboard cutouts of us.

[SPEAKER_08]: Okay.

[SPEAKER_08]: I'm not talking about having them done for the show.

[SPEAKER_08]: Uh-huh.

[SPEAKER_08]: Did you see corporate?

[SPEAKER_08]: I'm going to tell my family.

[SPEAKER_08]: I work.

[SPEAKER_08]: I work this time of life.

[SPEAKER_08]: We didn't hear anything.

[SPEAKER_08]: We didn't hear anything.

[SPEAKER_08]: We didn't hear anything.

[SPEAKER_08]: Please.

[SPEAKER_08]: God Almighty, I'm sorry you want to power watch your death.

[SPEAKER_08]: Me.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, break it.

[SPEAKER_04]: Like, yell, you break it, you buy it.

[SPEAKER_08]: Right.

[SPEAKER_08]: No, I'm talking about what would be funny if we could get discarded ones for cheap and just every periodically, we have like a cardboard cutout during the show.

[SPEAKER_08]: Like, in back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in the room, back in

[SPEAKER_07]: realistic sex dolls sales are through the roof.

[SPEAKER_07]: The biggest market for realistic sex dolls during the pandemic is Germany, and this is a man who was interviewed.

[SPEAKER_07]: This is actually a British guy.

[SPEAKER_07]: They electronically altered his voice, but he's very very happy that he has his special friends.

[SPEAKER_01]: Right now, I have five lovely ladies.

[SPEAKER_01]: But now with the pandemic, maybe I'm young, one of the biggest things is loneliness, sometimes you just want a hand to hold.

[SPEAKER_01]: Pressing them, I'm dressing them and taking photos of them.

[SPEAKER_01]: It's quite amazing how much they can live once moved.

[SPEAKER_01]: Without a doll, I don't think I would get through the pandemic.

[SPEAKER_01]: I think I would get cranky.

[SPEAKER_01]: I'm happy if I didn't have these dolls to keep me occupied.

[SPEAKER_07]: Mike, this just handed me his voice was not electronically altered.

[SPEAKER_07]: The fourth doll is filled with helium.

[SPEAKER_07]: Okay, I have been a fan of the Muppets since the Muppets began.

[SPEAKER_07]: I was a Sesame Street baby.

[SPEAKER_07]: I love all their product, love the Muppets show, love their movies.

[SPEAKER_07]: But I'm troubled.

[SPEAKER_07]: because they dropped a trailer on Disney Plus for a new Muppet Show called Muppets now.

[SPEAKER_07]: And it looks like a good idea because they're going to bring stars in and they're going to actually do improv.

[SPEAKER_07]: It's the first unscripted Muppets venture.

[SPEAKER_07]: Wow.

[SPEAKER_07]: Which is kind of an idea, but Mike, you're going to have the same problem I think I did.

[SPEAKER_07]: Kermit's voice is wrong now.

[SPEAKER_08]: Oh, no, that's not a hard voice to do.

[SPEAKER_07]: I know listen to the, I mean, You're not easy, beer and green.

[SPEAKER_07]: They've had a couple since Jim Henson passed, but this doesn't sound right to me.

[SPEAKER_06]: A Disney Plus announcement.

[SPEAKER_06]: With Kermit the Frog.

[SPEAKER_06]: And Joe from legal.

[SPEAKER_06]: Wait, what?

[SPEAKER_06]: The muppets are creating and the incredible news show was that he was in it.

[SPEAKER_06]: Right.

[SPEAKER_08]: He's doing Kermit Lazy.

[SPEAKER_04]: Wait, wait, wait.

[SPEAKER_04]: Is it Kermit from home?

[SPEAKER_04]: Because of COVID-19?

[SPEAKER_04]: Is he just like talking into like his, his USB mic?

[SPEAKER_04]: He has it.

[SPEAKER_08]: He has it right there on our second.

[SPEAKER_07]: And then he has it for a second and then he has it for a second and then he flies out of it.

[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, listen, I mean, it's just, it's not right.

[SPEAKER_07]: Be violent and funny.

[SPEAKER_06]: And it's gonna feature some new friends.

[SPEAKER_06]: Friends, right?

[SPEAKER_07]: No, no, no, no, no, no details about celebrity guests.

[SPEAKER_06]: And we're just gonna show everyone.

[SPEAKER_07]: Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

[SPEAKER_08]: do the voices right please.

[SPEAKER_07]: Please.

[SPEAKER_08]: Well, you know, in fairness to all those guys, I do occurment impression, but you know what, it's still an impression.

[SPEAKER_08]: And the originals like Mel Blanc.

[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, you think's couldn't do it, you know?

[SPEAKER_04]: Right.

[SPEAKER_08]: Silvester the cat.

[SPEAKER_08]: I don't know if you ever saw the one where Silvester's taken by the little girl who just abuses the hell.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, he's a ham and loves him.

[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

[SPEAKER_07]: And Mike, you know, one of the great Muppet Voices of all time, Frank Oz, is also the voice of Yoda.

[SPEAKER_07]: And so I actually happened on this.

[SPEAKER_07]: There was an amazing Star Wars merchandise auction.

[SPEAKER_07]: I don't have any Star Wars toys that I kept.

[SPEAKER_07]: I kept a lot of stuff.

[SPEAKER_07]: I don't have any Star Wars stuff.

[SPEAKER_15]: The stuff is amazingly collective.

[SPEAKER_15]: An extremely rare Star Wars action figure has gone up for auction and is expected to sell from more than $225,000.

[SPEAKER_15]: Apparently, it's an intricately sculpted figure
