(02:44):
Love the show this way this, wait for it. I
listened to it while I walk my dog and get
many strange looks from him when I stopped walking and
almost fall over laughing. As someone who grew up with
the name of a TV character, I spent my whole
life hearing lame jokes about it. My scene Suggestion is
a meeting support group for people whose life is mildly
inconvenienced by sharing the name with the famous character. The
(03:04):
meaning guess while when some of the actors for the
characters show up, keep up the funny work regards Danny
Tanner and no, not that Danny Tanner. Okay, I'll start off.
My name is Snake Pliskin and um and um. It's
(03:24):
a family name, and I it's just hard to you know, this,
live life with that, and people expect me to escape
from New York and escape from l A and I
just want to live there. I don't want to have
to be run out all the time with snake if
I'm a Oprah, Hi, um hi, I just want to
(03:45):
say I'm not familiar with the source material. So just
so you know, to me, you're all new and I've
never I've never had that luxury. It is Oprah. Yeah,
pretty much everybody knows who Opra is. That's right, they
sure do. None of them think it's me. Yeah, you
don't look much like. It's not a there's not a
hierarchy here. All the names are the same, right, even
(04:09):
if they haven't been heard of before. We all know that.
I think it's different. I'm just saying, as Oprah, that's fine.
You can totally, you can. You can do it. So
let's just let's go on, let's go. Anybody else want
to Well, I'd just like to point out that you
do say as Oprah pretty much every time you say something.
I don't say as the Night King every time I
say a sentence. But well you could if you wanted to.
I mean, you gotta have fun with it. I walk
(04:31):
in a room and say Oprah's on. That is pretty good.
It's pretty fun. Now, d night your your name is
spelled slightly differently, right, Yeah, well it's d Apostrophe Night
King which is a perfectly normal human name. Yeah, so
why don't you just go by with a dima stand
for something if it's period, Uh, it's an apostrophe, Oh yeah,
(04:53):
the apostrophe night yeah King, because my my parents were
eating those caramel d lights, the cookies when you have
but but they didn't think that delight was a good
name for a person. The boy a boy night night. Yeah. Yeah,
I know how tough it is. You know what your
name is weird? Oh sorry, Alf no last name, and
(05:15):
then you know it's topping my parents when I was born,
I popped out. They're like like some sort of alien
life form and they're like, oh, Alf, we'll call alf
by Alfie was fine, So they did name you after Alf.
They name me alf pre seriously, then the TV show came,
people actually say alien life form Alf. All right, let's
(05:36):
just hold on, let's just not you know, attack anybody
asking a questions. I mean, how often that we all
felt that, at some point in our lives that people
did look at us and think like, oh they looked
at that, you know, they look like the night King
or well yeah, I mean every day I walk around
(05:57):
and I'm I'm so so many that when people say
the Brady Bunch, I'm like, yeah, that's my name. I'm
the Brady Bunch. You should change a D N an
apostrophe that my given name is the like, that's your
first name. That's a weird name. Brady would be understand
(06:18):
the challenge, like telling people, oh, my name is Crosby
Stilson and they're like, Crosby, what my name's Crosby Stillson
and yeah, that's my last name, Stillson. Yeah, it's just
weird because I'm like, oh, it's spelled c r O
s b y and it gets c r O s
(06:39):
b y n A n a s h phonetically. That
doesn't mention that I have to write my name spelled
Crosby Stillson, Crosby the nash that's what he spelled. We can,
we can just we could have spent this whole time
just announcing our names differently than the way they're spelled,
(07:02):
because it seems like that would have been that of
O'd be opera, you stranger, you, I'm curious what your
name could possibly be bow Oh is in Yeah? Not
if if my name is Harpo Marx, that would be different.
(07:23):
People would confuse me with the famous marks. But the
name is just hard Bow, so people think that i'm production. Yeah, yeah,
we should. We should hang out. We should get you
a trench coat and a horn. All I got a
coffee for the night King, got a coffee for the
night King? What a wasted character? Right stabbed? You guys
(07:50):
are real dicks. Thank you? Are you the night King?
It look different and perfect? And denied? Is my name?
Just Deny? The nicking feels problematic? What's your name? Are
you supposed to be wearing a name tag here? Yeah?
I lost it. You're a terrible employee. Yeah, my name
is Jimbals. I'm sorry, Jimbals. Jimbals a normal name. Hey, Jim,
(08:15):
get off now, let me tell don't tell me to
get off. I'm the manager. Sorry, Sorry, I can get
on you as hard as I want. Jimble's listen to me.
I've been running this floor for two years. I can
get on you anyway I want to. All right, can
one of you please hand me my coffee? I'm sorry,
Tonight King, Mom, Dad, this is the love of my life,
(08:35):
the man that I'm going to spend the rest of
my life with. Tonight King. Oh, it's it's it's really
I've been. I've been so excited about meeting you for this, Melissa,
Melissa words. She tells me so much a word, Melissa, Oh,
I know, I know right, it's great, impressive, right, he
(08:57):
thinks he's a character. Carl Well, well, calmed down and calm.
I'm not not calm. I mean, he can probably hear
you with the volume your voices. You just want to
control everything about I'm not trying to. I'm just trying
not to embarrass our daughter. And get it. You're like
the Game of Thrones thing. No, that's not the case.
That's not the case. It's denied. It sounds more like
a rapper's name. Actually, Melissa, you broke up with Charles
(09:23):
Brown to date tonight, King, it's true. Why are you
breaking up with me? Is it because my dad's a barber? Um? Well,
I just I've met somebody else, so good grief. I know, mom, No,
(09:45):
she's great, but she broke up with me. Okay, I'll
go out and get Snoopy off the dog house. Every
time that I brought Charles around, he didn't understand what
you were saying. So like it was bizarre that music,
that lovely tinkling music that followed him. Do lead do duty.
(10:07):
It drove me insane. I'm gonna listen. Why don't we
just give this new tonight solid chance? Okay, let's okay,
all right? Are you sure I'm fine? Okay, Well, let's
have him for dinner. If he's so important, careful with
what do you say? Maybe it may come across. It's
(10:29):
kind of weird if you say we'll eat him for dinner, Carl,
don't tell me to be careful. It sounds like you
have a pretty tragic backstory there to night. Yeah, you know,
it's hard for me too. I tried to adopt a
cat the other day. They wouldn't let me have one,
wouldn't because I'm alf. I think I'm going to eat it. Yeah,
(10:50):
that's true. It's tough man. Your name doesn't define you,
you know. Yeah. I mean, I'm not filled with fun
in games or anything like the Brady Bunch would be
a sack races. I don't like those billion dollars. Every
time you have a problem, you seem to work it
out in about twenty two minutes. That's true, Thank you.
(11:14):
Maybe you can help Alf out. I mean, so your
problem as you want to adopt a cat? I really
I love cats, but they just think I'm going to
eat it, you know. Well, funny enough, I carry cats
around in my purse. Yeah, all right, let's be clear
about that next time. Many animals are interested in any allergies,
you know, just so we're okay, sorry, it's all good.
It's just you know, if someone might die because of
(11:34):
the catalogies. Sure, I don't. I'm not allergic, but I don't.
I don't like finding out a person had cats in
their purse. Okay, o, bro, let's just hang for a bit,
you know, let's just hang. You know, we're good. Cool. Yeah,
now that's that's a resolution. That's excuse me. Is that
a service animal because we don't allow them in the
coffee shop. It's a yeah, it's a service animals service
(11:57):
and you've been keeping it's been servicing you in your purse. Um, yes,
all right, all right, and it's doing that by calming
me down, I feel so calm Okay, shame on you,
Shame on you, sir, sir. Is there a problem, No,
there's not a problem, okay, boss a license for the
service animal. There's no support group that comes in all
(12:19):
the time. I mean, we we buy a lot of
coffee up, but it seems like there's a problem. There's
no way that she has a cat service animal in
her purse. Let me see that that's a real cat, ma'am.
It is a real cat. That grandco for the hound
for the hound? Wait to hound is here? Yes, suppose luias?
(12:39):
What's written under cappuccino? Thank you? Excuse me? Excuse me?

about it? Do I want to talk about? What about
your guys problems? Well down, My name is Dowund. It's
(13:25):
a family name. It's uh, seems like you're in denial
about this being problematic. Denial is my mom? Maybe your
mom wants to come to the support group too. What's
going on? Does it feel like we're hounding you right now? Um, like,
I got my coffee already and before I mean, just
(13:47):

Have you ever met another dound? You know, a couple
here and there where he's bluffing you never met another mom? Dad?
After things didn't work out with tonight, I met this
(14:09):
other man and he's the love of my life. I'm
going to spend the rest of my life with him.
His name's Down. Oh Jesus Christ, what was the problem.
It's just that every week there's a new man coming
in here. She made him at Starbucks. I don't understand
what's going I mean, I don't even have to pay
for any dating appsucks? Is this because I'm six ft
(14:30):
eight and horrendously deformed? That until? I love that about you?
Your unique half of my face is burned off? Oh
I hadn't even I couldn't even noticed. There's no way
I didn't even see it. But yeah, how that happened
to your face? I was born this way, singed, I

me from Starbucks, and we went on this long journey
on his horse, and then I fell in love with him.

our romance, all these questions. Hey brother, it's spent a while.

(17:01):
go home and practice spelling for one alright. Seene two
is from Conrad, who wrote, Hello, I love the show.
Every time I think I've decided which one of you
is the funniest or most clever, I changed my mind
because you're also good. I want to think James is
(17:22):
the least talented. Why why did you read that? Around? Kevin? Kevin?
He gives me these things to right. I want to
thank James at least talented, because he seems to take
(17:42):
the most abuse from the rest of you. But then
he'll always come up with a genius improvisation that proves
me wrong, wrong, adventure Crosbie Stilson that sent there was
a trip to Mortar and back. Anyway, I'm in the
(18:05):
construction field and I think there could be something very
funny happening in that world. And then he gave some
examples that were too detailed. According together came up the
good work Conrad. Alright, so I'm just gonna lay out
the cement. Uht's just there, and then, uh, where's the
elevator in the center? All right, tape it off? Yeah,
(18:28):
you know what, get us get him group meaning real
quick or group mating rooms real quick here all right, Yeah,
just so we're clear, the elevator's gonna go on the center.
We don't have a picture. Hang on a minute. We're
just guessing this week, go on, what this place is
gonna be like? It's it's like a committee. Ain't you
(18:48):
got blueprint? I got blueprints? But I just want to
just make sure everyone's okay with the blueprint. Blue brother.
I the personal drawing, and you know, I just don't
want to. You know, it's just showed. Why are you
personal drawling? Yeah, it's a personal drawing. The blueprints? Would
(19:10):

Once you drawing in blueprints? What personal things? You drawing
this blue something? Get in my pocket? Damn it there, okay, okay,
(19:31):
what's stupid? Is stupid? Let me get it back. That's amazing.
I've never seen a naked lady like that. Yeah, it's
so artistic. I've never seen a naked lady. That's exactly
what they look like like. That's real artistic. Whoa, it's nothing,
it's just building her up in the center. Yes, wow, wow,
(19:56):
you got this proof by the city. Yeah, clip the Jeff.
Let's see your plans here. Here they are and then
it's just a rough outline. Are you all right, sir
your wedding. Yeah, it's just a very personal project. And
I want to make sure that I need to call
my supervisor over. Yea, we are going to need our supervisor.
(20:17):
Problem with you here? It's not just the elevator, my god,
well the cement is going to go right right here?
What's going on? Why are you bothering me? I'm so sorry.
Sorry to be only an emergency. Absolutely. Do you know
you said not to come in here unless we had
(20:38):
something that would give you an architecture hard on right, Yes,
we'll take a look at this. Who designed this? His
name is Chow Chowed. That's his first name. Period. Hold child,
you need to get in some sort of support group
for that. Anyways, the name, it's not about the name.
(21:02):
He's in my office right now. That's how he signed
the drawing. Excuse me? Are you? Are you Chowed? I am?
Are you someone's father? Not that I know of, but
you know it could be. Yeah, can I help you
with something? Or I was just looking at your blueprints. Dang,
(21:26):
and they're rough. They're rough. So the elevator is gonna
go in the middle, and it's gonna go it's gonna
go right at the middle, at the middle, and then
there's gonna be cement in a line. If I show
you the please. I know how to read blueprints. I've
been in the construction field a long time, but nothing
(21:48):
has given me an architectural hard on like this. Uh huh?
What do you need? Um? I yes, just materials and
a crack team that loves democracy. You've got it, Thank you.
This city is going to get behind you. Thank you.
(22:09):
Any permit is going to go forward, and any problem
you get from the press. Yeah, yeah, Look, I don't
want to throw a monkey ranch and everything. But uh,
just because you drew a picture of naked lady on
the blueprints, now we got to build a giant naked
lady with an elevator up the middle. NBC, get her
(22:30):
out of here. Sorry, we were supposed to handle that.
This building. What's this going to be. It's a passion project.
It's going to be something beautiful. Wait a second. No,
I've never seen a naked lady in real life before,
but Sonia looks like she could be the naked lady.
Let me see. Are there blueprints for this? What's going on? Private? Private?
(22:54):
Oh my god, it's just a rough draw. I mean
the elevator goes right up the middle. Yeah, there's cement.
I'm telling you, the way that they're describing is exactly
how Sonya looks. I think Sonia is a lady in
the bullprint. Think you're right. This picture does look just
like Sonya. She does have someement under her feet right now. Um,
(23:20):
it's it's you. Look familiar. I am used to work
on the same cruise as you. Chode. Yeah, yeah, it's me. Wow. Yeah,
I'm a reporter now big time. I cover all the buildings.
I can get any city permit. I want to build.
(23:41):
I'm a builder now, I work in the field. Well
this I was going to do a big expose about this,
but it looks like, um, something even more exposing is happening. Yeah, um,
he's gonna lay this Rebard down, Joe, Okay, yeah, that's caer.
Uh well, I was like, I was thinking that we'd
(24:02):
actually have a yarn yarn yep, just just hundreds of
bales of yarn just thrown over the side. And of
course the head will be an observation deck, like like
the Statue of Liberty. Yes, so, uh so, just for
funding wise, I think I want to thank the board
for being here and uh thank you so much, sir
for for coming here. And uh so, if we can
all just take a look at the uh back whatever
(24:24):
here and you'll see just this, this is a rendering
of what it's gonna look like in a a three dimensional model.
I have a question for you. Yes, I mean, look,
as the representative of the of the uh the religious
community here in town, it looks like that elevator, uh
that goes up the middle. Do I have to say
what it looks like? I can if you want me to.
I don't want to have to whether the design needs
(24:47):
to be sleek. It looks like it's sleekily fucking here
is what it looks like. Okay, I mean as someone
who represents the religious community. Yeah, I think you'll you'll
understand the efficiency and you know, the bigger the elevator shaft,
the closer to Also, just the buildings can't have intercourse,
well not until they're married. Buildings just not not even
(25:08):
you can. You can love a building, honey, but it's
not gonna love your back. And that is why I've
not seen a naked lady, because I'm from the religious
community in this local area. I've seen you. Yeah, Hi,
I never asked your name. I didn't care. Why are
you building me? Why are you building me? Jody? There's
the only way I thought I would ever see you again.
(25:30):
What if what a beacon you've put in this town?
I figured, how if if there's one thing I can do,
it's build a building. And that's why didn't you call
After the cruise back to Carnival cruise that oh ship,
it's just one number off. I don't know her number,
and we're stuck on the cruising. The women that paper
wait wait wait wait wait wait oh god, oh god,
(25:53):
oh god, you ate that piece of baby. There was
a number on it. Good God, bad? Why don't you
Why didn't you do that? Why did you do that
little with my life? That is he still on the boat. Yeah,
but it's the most huge carnival cruise feeling said, why
(26:17):
are you cut back? I fell off the boat and
I didn't know if I was ever going to see
anybody again. Oh and yet we've ended up in the
same small town and you're building me. What are the chances?
What is the elevator mean, Jode, it's just the way
to get up. Mrs as Quis. We can't run your story?
(26:40):
Why not you become the story. It's the first rule
of journalism. I'm too close, you're too close. Why are
you going to run instead? Stupid thing about the pony
that looks like a donkey? Been working on that for
seven years. It's stupid, Ted, No one cares to But
you've seen a drunk and you've seen ay and just
(27:02):
look the same. You have to run this story. You
have to run this second. Oh then kill me. Well,
there's an in between. I've got a thank you. I
think that's pretty extreme. Just kill me, all right? Guys.
So now this is exciting. We're almost done. Sandra's gonna
be here any minute. All right, I gotta put your top.
(27:22):
She she should be here by now. Good work was
the nostrils? Are you just fantastic for a compliment? Are
you great? You know when I started out in this business, kid,
they said, never make a building for a lady, Make
it for a city. Why are you telling me this now?
(27:44):
Because i'm your dad? What you are a dad? Oh
my gosh, you're my dad. Yes, this is time to celebrate.
I'm rending with my papa, and Sandra's gonna be here
any second, extra extra, read all about it? A pony
that looks like a horse. Also journalist Sandra Vasquest murdered
by her editor. Wait a pony? It looks like a
(28:06):
horse or a donkey? Hey? I wrote this story the
Sandra part. We should be focusing on the Sandra park.
Oh my go she died, she murdered. The picture makes
a little opponent looks like a donkey head. The building's canceled.
God damnit, Telly ran the rock story. I wrote him backwards.

All right? Okay? Do you have a pen? Use your laptop? Right? Hey, hey,

his lips are huge. All right. That's another story, Jesus.
And that's and that's the story of the beautiful lady
building in the middle of our town. Wow, that's that's
really disturbing. Why why did she have to die? Well
(29:17):
she if she hadn't died, this building would have never
been made. Right. True love doesn't survive the buildings, do
I don't know. You want to take the elevator straight
up through the middle. Not with you, dad? You got
changed for an old architect guy builder? Sorry, pal, No, No,
