was like working with you. Guys. Hey, guys, I just
(00:30):
want to say, guys, fans out there, I was tardy today.
I was tardy, and I'm emotional about it. Um, you

darn good excuse. That's true. That's true. I think so.
I think nobody's mad about it. Nobody's mad about it.
You were feeding you were doing a charity event. Yeah,
(00:52):
it wasn't it really an event. It was just you know,
you go to the Boys and Girls club, but with
feeding the children. And I think that's more written that
our podcast. Right, I think it's totally fine. Did you
did did you get some some nice smiles? And yeah?
It was cool. It was today we where I was
(01:13):
with Harry Schum Harry Shum love Harry. Yeah, and we
were making smoothies. Um, yeah, which I'm one of the best.
That That's like something that people always say whenever they
see me on the street. They always go, smooth man,
smoothie King. That's what secret? What's your secret? I'm not
gonna lie to you. You add a little bit of
(01:34):
a little bit more banana than you need. Oh that's
what I think. In a lot of smoothie shops, I'm like,
did you put like five bananas smoothie? Like I'll order
us smoothie and I'm like, I feel like I just
drink five bananas. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, super fruit. It
is really good. Bananas are delicious while you were doing
(01:56):
good good deeds. It gave me some time while you
were to part for the party. Um usually just sit
here with a glass of water and we go through
the podcast. I'm not gonna lie or a glass of wine.
Had a little afternoon delight I felt today you are drinking?
Is that water? No, girl, it's a little lemon lavender
(02:19):
um cocktail by It's called Straight and Narrow. It's a
company called Straight Narrow. I'm not even I don't. They
don't support our show or Brandon show. There is. It's
a gin cocktail. Oh good for you. I'm know you
were joking, but no, we're serious. Yeah, I know. I'm
recording this up in Canada and uh when Ida they
(02:40):
do a little booth here? Yeah, these Straight and narrows
keep me straight narrow, Lavender and fuse. Do you say
lavender and lemon keep you one thing. I want my
cocktail to taste like it's flowers. Yeah. For Hannah if
you guys folks at home, if you don't know, Hannah
is very aggressive and wild, so the lavender keeps her calm,
(03:03):
which we need her to have. It makes her sleepy.
I'm kidding. I actually I love lavender. It's one of
my favorite sense I've never tasted it, but oh wait,
you know what, I've had a lavender latte. I think yes,
and that's good. That is good. I'm bringing this back
for you. Um. All right, you guys very excited about
(03:26):
this episode. Fancy Man's Fancy Men. Fancy Man Part one?
All right, Lauren, do you want to read this little
recap of the first part of Fancy Man so it
reminds all of us. Jesse's student is exhibiting some dark
thoughts in her art, so she schedules a meeting with
(03:46):
the student's parents, who should arrive but Russell. Russell doesn't
adhere to Jess's experimental teaching styles and insist his daughter
at work with a tutor instead. Unfortunately for Jess, Russell
is the third large as donor in the school district.
Number one, of course, being me, which means she needs
to apologize. Meanwhile, Nick is struggling with his credit score.
(04:09):
I threw a joke in there that Nick has the
credit score of a homeless ghost, which means it's pretty low. Now,
since he weighs more than his credit score, he's unable
to secure a new phone. This causes him to have
a bit of an identity crisis. Winston, means where also
struggles with his confidence shocker, after Schmidt shows off his
superior intellect in front of Shelby. They had a trivia
(04:31):
nighted Schmidt was showing his butt. Winston really wants to
make things official with Shelby, but Schmidt's antics make him
second guess himself until Shelby reveals that she likes Winston
for who he is. Quite honestly, I think it's the mustache.
It turns out just likes Russell m m m m
m m mmmm, though it takes c C to point
(04:53):
it out to her. Russell can provide her with a car.
That's it. That's an important thing, a mechanic that's also
important in a new phone for Nick, and pretty much
more than any man she's ever dated. Even Nick falls
in love with Russell. Okay, sniffing on his sweater and
his that's my favorite weird storyline. Yeah, no, just that
(05:15):
him in Russell's office being says he smells like seeing
a man about a horse. I thought that was Yeah,
that's a good that was good. Now, after Russell saves
just from a Japanese Biday, which I love, I love
me a good old fashioned total I love a Japanese
to day. There's a story, by the way, there's a
story behind that storyline that I'll get to it. So
(05:41):
just after Russell saves her from getting wet about the
toilet water, agrees to go out with him. Now love
is in the air for all of a loft mates.
Not back to our shows. A good refresher. Yeah, I
think it was the fancy Man's for me. Yeah. Who
directed this episode? Peyton read Payton, Read love Peyton read Love,
(06:06):
Love Love Peyton. We love Peyton. What a great guy.
He directed a movie I did called Yes Man, And
when we started our first season of the show, I
sent him a little text and said, Hey, I'm doing
a TV show. Would you be up for directing an
episode or two? And he came into yeah, him, and
(06:27):
then Jesse Perette and Miguel Arteta, a number of people
that were my friends who were directors. I so I
roped In had a party at his house once, um
and was it Christmas party or something? I forget what
it was, probably, but he reminded me of Fancy Man.
You know, it's so funny. This is I was literally
(06:49):
going to tell the same story of Peyton had a
Christmas party, and I remember going and I felt a
little intimidated and overwhelmed, and I was like, you know what,
it's fine, just you know, trying to blend in. And
I remember Al Yankovic, Yeah, he's friends with Peyton, which
I didn't know. I guess this is like kind of
(07:10):
my first like industry party to go to. And he
was sitting on a couch by himself, and I just
remember being like, wow, I'm weird out, Like that's what
I want to do, Like that is my comfort zone
at a party, to find a couch, sit down, kind
of keep to myself. And I've never been starstruck slash
(07:34):
related to another human being in their party mode more.
That's what I remember. Peyton reads Christmas party, I met
weird al at and his lovely family at Peyton's house
at a party, and he sent me a Christmas card
via email every year since Quette Church and he never
(07:56):
sent me a Christmas card. Well, that's weird. Okay, Okay,
this episode, that episode. Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, we
love you, we love you out, we love whether a
church or a Christmas party. Um, right off the belt,
right off the back, guys. I do want to say this.
(08:16):
Randall Park is in this. I know. I didn't know that.
I didn't know he was every on our show. Randall
Park is in that opening moment in the cell phone
store cell phone store. I as soon as I saw that,
I went, whats with a hair do? That says some things? Okay,
I almost didn't recognize him. I know I did not
(08:40):
recognize him. You just said that, and I was like, wait,
what's the one in the scene. Yeah, I want to
take your credit for I want to be the first
one to say that New Girl is responsible for Randall Park.
Welcome Randall with this two lines. Yeah, it was a
wild moment. I thought. I thought too. I was like,
there's no way. I actually googled it because I'm like,
(09:01):
there's just no way that someone who just looks like
Randall Park exactly. Um, but it was him gracing our
show with his incredible talent. So that's a great shout
out to our casting department. On our show, we did
such an incredible job. We had the best the past.
I mean, we had such incredible guest actors coming in
(09:22):
every single week, and like every time I watched it,
I'm like, I'm reminded of who was on our show,
and I'm like, how do we get all these people?
It's pretty incredible. We get in this episode, we get
round to Park, we get Kelly Hawk, we got Dermott mulroney. Yes,
Dermott mulroney, So let's dive in. Dermott Moulroney plays Russell
(09:45):
fancy Man. Right, So how did this story? Did this
storyline come about in any particular way? Or is this just,
you know, another way to try to weave into the
will they won't there with Nick and Jess because we
bring into and we had Rachel Harris by I was
in that episode, but she she was recurring, so she
(10:06):
was in multiple episodes. But Rachel Harris is so so
funny playing my boss. Yes, absolutely, And if I'm forgetting anybody,
I'll go back in the whole morning. Well, there are
just too many great ones. That's what I feel like.
This is the first time we see Jess with like
now a boyfriend that we're going to have around, you know,
(10:27):
for a real storyline. You remember how you felt. So
when you found out, like, this is it. Okay, we're
in the show now and this is your love interest
for the season, I was like yeah, because Derma I
had met like he probably doesn't remember this, but I
had met him at like a play reading maybe you know,
a number of years before, and he was like so
(10:49):
incredibly nice. And he was like, oh, because he's I'm
a musician. He's a musician. He's like a really good
cello player. He like plays on sessions and know he's
a session cello player, Like you have to be so
good to be a session player. And he was like yeah,
if you ever need a cello player, here's my information.
(11:11):
Like he is so nice, And I remember being like,
what a nice guy. And then when they said he
was gonna that they that's who they wanted, I was like, absolutely,
he is such a nice guy and would be a
fun person to work with. Did he play the cello
at all these episodes. I forget, No, I think he
might have at some point. I remember Megan Wrath at
(11:34):
the like later seasons, she had to pretend to play
a cello, right, I remember that. For some reason, I
thought he did in like later later seasons, maybe like
he came back for a few episodes at the very end.
I mean, if they didn't have him use that skill,
what a waste? I mean, really, what a waste? Because
(11:55):
I do. I have so many skills and a new
girl to me over the seven seasons. Wasted a lot
of them because they never used tell me which ones
are those? I'm a horse, a horse whisper, you're a
horse whisper? Yeah, I like to whisper a horse's ears.
They didn't never let me do it. Not they don't
like it, But I do it. Yeah, I'll do it,
(12:15):
you know what I mean? Like a professional perfect can
juggle chainsaws? Oh my god, well I would love to
see that. They didn't take advantage of that one. Yeah,
I'm not good at it. Okay, then I don't. Please don't.
Then we don't want you. Please don't try to, at
least not on our watch, you know. Yeah, I won't
(12:35):
do it on the podcast, but I'll you know what
I mean, Like, if we ever, you know, gear up
for another rerun of a New Girl, I'll do it then, okay,
and then what else? Tell us? Honestly, if you just
look up, look laugh, look right, I'm behind you, I
can appear anywhere. Oh my god, are Yeah. Some people
(12:56):
call it stalking. That's what the police said, that's what said.
I call it appearing. I mean, honestly, I'd be delighted
if either one of you appeared in my midst at
any point. Delighted. I don't don't look up, don't look left,
don't look right, because I'll be there is little morning.
(13:20):
Wasn't that the term that they had in season five,
calling like being the doing the Biden? Just Biden him there,
Joe Biden to be there, just be there. You're doing
the Biden. That's what's happening now. Okay, So we're talking
(13:41):
about the show. The show. Okay, So so Nick. So
Nick is also enamored with with with Russell because he's
the opposite. He's he's the opposite. He's kind of the
person that Nick wants to be. But he We start
off by talking about how bad. His credit score is like,
that's his basically as it gets he has a very
(14:03):
very terrible it's it's a two fifty, right, and so
it's two and so everyone is shocked by this um
is that? Do you think Russell's um what do you
call it? Stature in life was intentional by writers like
let's make this someone who was directly opposite from Nick
(14:23):
and in it but in it? But but do you
think it was specifically for that reason of getting them
together at that point? It wasn't just like funny. I
think it's like to show how it can't work if
it's all the things that Nick isn't you know? It
seems like the perfect package. How could you say no?
(14:44):
Even Nick can't say no. Well, what's what's cool about
the two episodes back to back, and having just watched
both of them, is that the first one, it's like
Nick is the opposite a fancy man, and then the
second one offers Nick a chance to step into another
type of fancy man's status as he woos like a
(15:08):
college student. So it's there's definitely a progression of Nick
throughout these Fancy Men episode. Yeah, he gets a taste
of what it's like to be admired for what it
is he's doing, which is he's a bartender, you know,
(15:28):
which is great he can make would you guys be happier?
So Nick doesn't have a phone this episode, and he
makes it like his identity. Would you guys? Do you
guys think that you could survive for a while without
a phone? Would you be happier without your phone? No?
I couldn't survive without a phone, I don't think so.
I used to think that I was the guy who could.
(15:50):
But there's so much more responsibility now. Um, if I
were stuck, if I was in one location with my
my kid, then I feel I feel like everyone else
can handle themselves and I wouldn't need to have a
phone necessarily, but because I I think, like I want
my phone for emergencies. But I do think there's like
(16:10):
a major amount of time suck that happens with certain
um things like Instagram, which I enjoy very much. I
had to put a limit on myself, like because otherwise
I just like mindlessly, you know, yeah, just scrolling, just
(16:32):
scrolling memes. Cat memes, you guys. Cat memes are my favorite.
Instagram gives you the report. Instagram gives you the report
of how how many hours you spend that week? Yeah?
I did. The man they gave me a report said
that I spend a week. I didn't know it was
(16:54):
that many hours. Instagram Yeah yeah bro and yeah yeah
bro yeah bro. Um guys. In our notes it says
talk about working with Randall park Zoe. I'm like, I
didn't realize I was working with him. But I will say,
okay that I do like remember him separately as the
actor that I worked with on that day versus the
(17:18):
man he is today. Okay, And I remember him being
very nice and very funny and very professional. Nice what
if he would be? But you know what, I don't remember,
like really ever having anybody that was like, do you
remember having anybody that was like a big problem. I
think maybe we'll have to like go through and like,
(17:40):
you know, I don't know if I had necessarily called
them out, but I might mention him, but I don't
think because I don't want to like ruin anyone's careers.
But I can't remember any time that we had somebody
on the show where I was like, what a dud? No,
here's the thing that bumped me at the Fancy Man
Barbecue that Jeff's goes to. Okay, this is a very
(18:03):
like high to do party. It's catered, it's fancy. It's fancy. Man.
I inspired to that kind of party, like fun. It
was all put together. It was incredible at least. Then
like she finds them like work in the grill, and
I was like, come on, there's no way if he's
(18:23):
like supposed to like work through him and talk to
people and he has it fully catered. He's the one
turning sausages at the you know what those sometimes there,
I've had things. I've gone to people's houses who are
kind of fancy and they have a caterer and all
that stuff, and then they want to make the thing
(18:44):
that they're good at making. And a lot of guys
are kind of territorial about the grill barbecue. The girl
doesn't seem like the guy that would be like from
the grill mass. Maybe they're trying to surprise you, because
I do think it was weird that he took such
a turn from he's such a dick in the first
(19:05):
In the first scene when he walks in, he's like,
I know what's best for my daughter, miss day, Like
remember how he was in the first scene, I was like,
this guy's a jerk. Then all of a sudden he's
like totally nice and seems to respect. I do think
they were trying to give him a down to earth moment,
(19:28):
and that was the down to earth moment, like I'm
just here cooking the food. He's turning his own sausages.
Turning his own sausages was a part two that was
a little nuts. I'm like this man, it just keeps
handing like things out and a real bizarry. I've never
seen anybody just do that. They barely know. That just
(19:51):
goes to show you've never been to my house. You
are actually oddly generous, like you are very over. You
are extremely I will attest to that. I remember being
like morn Is like so nice, hold on to those watching,
what are you doing? I will never forget when we
booked New Girl, you had a friend who was just
(20:13):
a friend, and you're like, oh, she helped me, like
you know, read lines and get the show, and you
gave her a pair of Lubetan's right. I remember that
story and I was like, you don't need slow down.
I was like, do you have presents for people? That's
a really good present. If you hate money. So you
know what I thought was so sweet, Lamorn was when
(20:35):
I had my first baby, Elsie, you got me a
baby food maker, which was I was like, this is
so sweet and I'm like, I need this. This is
awesome gift. Yeah, you're you're because you're you're are a
bit of a fancy man. And speaking of which, we
started this whole podcast that you were out there turning
(20:56):
sausages this morning. I mean maybe you was bananas is
what he was doing in a big old blender. So
here's the big question that I was I wanted to
ask you guys, because um, Jess has a tell, right
if she has a crush on someone that she goes
into this like weird, funny British accent m or she
(21:18):
does the Kermit the Frog voice. I think Cecy's like,
please tell me. I think she does lots of weird voices. Yeah,
she gets into like these voices. Um, do you have
a tell when you when you like somebody? Well, I
only like one person. His name is Jonathan Scott. He's
from Canada. But there you go. You just did a
(21:40):
voice like that. I'm just no, I mean, I'm just
kidding with the voice um, I don't know. Um, like
when you first like somebody, Um, I don't know. I
can't think of anything other than you know, I feel
(22:04):
like all the normal stuff, like you know, texting people,
but I text my friends too. It doesn't mean I
like them like that. You know. There's no like weird
tell like just it's like a dead give. I don't
think so like a twitch like it's twitch I do
you do? What's your thing? I do? It's mine? Is
(22:25):
like it's post coital, you know. That's when I know
you like somebody. I engage them at that point. Yea, yeah,
that's when I know. That's when I know if we
engage in grown up stuff. Then I'm like, yeah, that's
not a tell. I don't otherwise. I don't think I
have a specific tell. Um. I think it's you know,
(22:48):
it's hard to date these days, so I think you
go out multiple times. I think if you if if
if you're continuously as on my side of the coin,
if I reach out multiple times to continue after the
first date, that's my tell. That's that's what it is,
because a lot of times I will I will be honest,
it's one date and then you know Felicia if my
(23:16):
if my everyday life takes precedent over me hanging out
with you again, then that's telling me. That's my tell
for myself. I go, I have to get this other
stuff done. But there are times where I go, I
put everyday life on the back burner to see that
person again, and then that would My thing is that I, um,
(23:37):
I look like I'm just like about to start laughing
all the time because there's like a voice in my
head the whole time. I'm trying to listen to you
and talk to you, but I have I know, I
don't know that you're going to be trouble for me,
and so there's like a voice in my head the
whole time going like it's like this guy is like
really hot and you really like him, and even so
you're talking so quietly, but that's what's happened in my brain,
(23:59):
the little voice of saying it. And then I'm like
laughing and I cannot hear a word that they're saying.
Do you still do that with Jesse? Yes, it's terrible.
He's the worst. I mean, it's very cute, it is,
but that that's a scary one to do. And I
(24:20):
know we're off topic a little bit. That's a scary
one to do because when you're not listening and you're
just giggling it what that person looks like, they're probably
telling you very important information like I'm a serial killer,
I watch you while you sleep? Where your underwear? And
you know that's that you avoid that person, but you
wouldn't know because you're not listening. Yea. Hopefully, my my
(24:42):
instincts of who I'm spending time with, UM has gotten
me past the super creepy people. So that's nice. Um, okay, guys,
speaking of um creepy people who will where your underwear
while you sleep. Um, we're going to go to break
I don't know why that bad transition, but we'll be
(25:08):
welcome and we're back. Hello everybody. So good? Can we
talk about like bar trivia dates, like a good like
pub quiz? Would that be? Like? I think it's tough
because you're like it can be. Those things can get
so competitive. It's like playing It's like if you're gonna
(25:30):
go play basketball with somebody on your first date, just
a little bit much. I would love that as a
first date or basketball. Not basketball. By the way, my
first date with Jonathan was an escape room, Lucy. That
sounds fun. It's the best, but like I didn't know
how to play. I didn't know like how you're supposed
to do it, Like it's kind of a there's a
(25:52):
learning curve. And I was like, what is happening? And
it was. He was there, and then we went to dinner,
and then his brother and sister in law met us,
and they were like all doing stuff like they knew
exactly what to do, and I was just standing there, like,
on your first date, you met the whole family. I'd
(26:12):
already met I' then he liked you bad, like if
like everybody they were supposed to come to dinner with us.
And then when he was like he was like not
sure if it was a date or not. He was like, so,
who's coming tonight and I was like just me and
he was like okay, and then he canceled everybody. Like
(26:37):
I say, trivia nights are great though, um for a
first date, I mean, because they sometimes do work out.
I'm not sure if you guys seen the hit classic
movie Game Night. Ums, just guys rent the movie? What
do you call? You don't rent it? You stream it? Sorry?
I'm all stream the movie Game Night starring Lamourne Morris
(27:01):
and also Rachel McAdams, right, Jason Bateman, jes plement. I
mean the cast means an incredible cast. Do you remember
shooting these bar trivia scenes? Well, they we we so
we did our trivia scenes in someone's home. But the
movie opens up with Jason episode. Oh, I thought we
(27:24):
were still talking about your career so game night. Uh no,
So in this one. You know what's interesting. While I
was watching it, there every once in a while, this
will happen when I do the rewatch. I don't remember
being there. I don't remember when I was watching it.
It was like I was watching it for the first time,
(27:44):
and I just thought, man, I don't remember shooting this scene,
and I don't know what it is about it, Maybe
because internally, I truly would feel some sort of way
if Schmidt was behaving that way. If I like the
girl and Schmidt was just, you know, showing so annoying,
it's so annoying for it to do that. So that's
(28:05):
I probably blocked it out of my memory, you know,
So it was gone that moment. But your method acting,
Daniel day Lewis, is what they said when they see
me on the street. That I was going, Man, is
that a Is that a Daniel d? Yeah? And I
go yeah, yeah, yeah, the Smoothie King. Absolutely, yeah, that's me.
Isn't there like a smoothie place called Smoothie King? I
(28:27):
think is that your Is that your joint? I don't know,
but I could be the spokesperson for Smoothie King. Guys.
Opportunity right here, guys, you're hearing it here first. Um, yeah,
but I think the I think I think a trivia
night a bar t of your night because you can
tell a lot by a person's personality. You can tell
(28:49):
a lot of their personality due to how competitive they
may be, how passive they may be, how smart they
may be with useless information. You know. Yeah, I think, yeah,
it would be fun. I mean I love a game night. Yeah,
I guess what you're saying. There's a flip of it.
It would be very telling of if you're you're doing
that as a date and the other person is actually
(29:10):
concerned about winning or losing. That to me, all of
a sudden becomes a bummer of a date, Like if
you're there just to have fun and who cares if
you get one answer right and you're just enjoying the
show of everybody else having high stakes on it. That's
a fun night to me. But if you actually care,
like I'm out by, because that's why have you guys
ever played that game? Balder dash game, it's where they
(29:36):
have they have like categories. It's like movie book laws,
like a number of things, and they'll give you a
title of a movie, say, or a book, and then
you have to write the like synopsis and um, and
then you write down like the person who's like the
(29:59):
center of the game writes down like the real thing,
and then everybody turns in there like fake answers, and
then you read them all together. You get points if
people pick your fake answer, and you get points if
you pick the real one. But that one's really fun
because I a lot of times play just to make
people laugh, like I just say like stupid stuff to
(30:19):
make people laugh, like not caring whether I get points
or not. And I like that one because you can
kind of play for laughs or like play for real
and everybody's welcome. They have another game that's essentially that
game called you play phibbish on through jack Box TV
(30:40):
or something like that, and it's everyone has their own
phones and you can write down. We get this during
quarantine a lot. So that's the thing I never knew that.
I never knew that you never want to play an
online I never want to have an online party again.
Don't you feel like I feel like, I'm like, we
did that, just like just s gradually itch of being
(31:00):
around people. But I'm like, I don't want to have have
a Zoom party again. But I did. I did like
doing that. I did like playing that game, and that
was very fun. So thanks for the memories. Speaking of memories,
one of the most memorable parts of this episode is
you in a real, like almost karate fight with the bidet,
which is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
(31:23):
I'm like, that looked like a violent assault that that
toilet was doing to you. Okay, so here's what happened,
and this this is true story. Okay, alright, remember when
we had the first season, which this was UM. We
had a big giant dinner with the heads of the
(31:44):
studio and the network. Like it was like Dana Walden
who basically runs Hollywood now she's like a super super
um smart, powerful executive. UM. We had had um like
Kevin Riley, we had Gary Newman, We had Peter turn In.
(32:06):
Kevin Riley ran the network. Gary Newman also was um
with running the studio with data, and then we had
Peter turn In, who was one of our exact producers.
It was a big wig dinner, okay, Like these are
like very very like high up people, okay, at at
(32:26):
Fox and they had a big dinner to celebrate our
wonderful um show success, which was so exciting. And Liz
was sitting next to me, and I think Peter Turning
was like on the other side of me. I think
Gary was sitting close by too, And I got up
to use the restroom. I walked in the restroom and
(32:48):
there's this like toilet right and it has like a
there's like a bunch of buttons on this side. I
have no idea, like, I'm like, and it's closed, and
I'm like, well, how do I open it? So I
pressed some buttons. The toilet like opens and starts like
squirting me with what I get my entire Yeah, I
(33:14):
pressed the wrong button. Okay. I got sprayed on my
dress with toilet water. And when I went back to
my seat, I was like Liz, Liz, and She's like,
what I'm like a Japanese toilet just like assaulted me
in the bathroom and she's like what, I like, my
(33:34):
squirt is all wet because in Japanese toilet like white
crazy and started squirting me. Anyway, Liz thought this was
hilarious and put it in the um the episode and
which because it was like we were with these very
very um powerful people, right and um, so that's the story.
(33:56):
And we were at a place and do you remember
the restaurant we're at. It was in um it was
like a steakhouse in Beverly Hills. It was like there.
It was in a private room. Yeah, we had a
big square table. Okay, wait, hang on, it's still there. Um,
(34:20):
hang on Mastros? Was that a Mastros? Yeah? Huh, that's interesting.
I don't I didn't get that invite. Know you were there.
I was eating a bologna sandwich. You were, So that
was so that was pulled from a real experience because
(34:41):
I also remember there's a scene where you were and
I are talking, I'm giving you advice about you know,
taking a chance in dating like a man instead of
a boy, and you're holding your bunny phone case and
wasn't that your real phone case? Um No, it wasn't.
I thought there was like a phone case or something
(35:03):
of yours that you I don't know, that they had
stolen from your real life and put in the show.
Don't remember what. Look, it's not out of the realm
of possibility. It might have been my case. I'm not sure,
I think. But here's actually I think what happened that
it was in the show and that I liked and
ordered one. I was like, I love that phone game.
(35:25):
This is so cute. I just remember having a conversation
with you, and I thought it was about that phone case,
which is like, there's like they're starting to kind of
like mine, our real experience definitely, and it's like there's
there's stuff that's not like just about me, and then
(35:45):
there's a lot of stuff. Then there's stuff that's totally
you know, like Jess. So but that is something I
would rock without regrets. I'd be proud of my bunny
phone case. You know. It's funny too. When I watched
that episode and Nick goes into um Russell's office, there's
(36:06):
some like black and white framed art um of uh,
like I don't know, like the Savannah in Africa somewhere
with like an elephant on it. You see it in
the background. And in the final season of New Girl,
that exact art is hanging in Nick's office in his room,
(36:31):
in his office. And so when New Girl ended, Um,
I actually bought my first home and I've always lived
in an apartment and I bought this home and I
was like, I didn't have enough stuff to even begin
to fill a home. And I remember, Um, Michael Wheatstone
(36:52):
was sort of like, help yourself to anything to use
that you really like, and then stuff can be placeholders
until you find a things that you really want or
if you like it, just keep it. Yeah, and that
black and white because I've I've traveled there and spent
time there and whatever. I was like, I love this.
And so that actually is in my house now, Oh
(37:12):
my god, from the fancy man's office to my house.
That's so funny. I have I have the watermelon and
the like botanical um print from my room that are
up in my house. I don't think I have any No,
I do have artwork from them. I took. I'm not
gonna I took a lot of stuff. Yeah, I think
(37:34):
we all kind of really did a lot of shopping.
Asked for I only asked for three things. Yeah, but
I took Ferguson's tombstone. I took the space did not?
Did you really? Yeah? I have that the space orgy
that happened. I took that painting. I have the basketball
hoop from the loft. You took a cat's tombstone. I
(37:54):
keep it in my front yard so when people come,
they go, oh my god, you buried someone here, and
go pete to ye. But yeah, they don't know as
a capitally think it's a person. Welcome to guys. Where's
(38:18):
the bears? Hannah? Have you have you? Have you figured
it out this episode? Okay? So um, I will say
besides the bear on the refrigerator and Fancy Man Part one,
I don't find any other bear references. But I'm gonna
say this because it happened a couple of weeks ago
when we did our Injured episode, I was like, I
(38:41):
couldn't find any bears, and then people were commenting in
on my Instagram post about there was a bear and
I had missed it, and I realized, this is what
needs to happen now on this podcast. Okay, as we
go through this season, and we're going to start taping
these upcoming episodes. Message me if you find the bear,
(39:04):
and then I will read that aloud and share it
here on the show. Help me. I need this to
be a team effort from our listeners. So after Fancy
Man Part one, we're going to do part two. So
after that going on from that, if you see bears,
let me know and help me out, because I'm a
believer in the bear in every eppisode, Please please let
us know. And right now I'm not doing the best
(39:26):
job as the lone man on campus. Hunting be your segments,
so I don't say anything. This end of this episode,
I will say is one of the funniest tags I
feel like we did in the entire series, where Jake
is pretending to be like a CEO or president of
(39:48):
Planet Earth behind the desk and just it's I have
to fall into a pond, a coy pond at like
three in the morning. Did you really do? Yeah? I don't.
I have an amazing stunt double, But but I fell
into the I fell into the pool. I had to like,
(40:12):
I can't remember whether she did the falling and then
I had to do the getting up or whether I
just I think I might have just done the falling
there because I do remember that I had to be
in the pool, but I'm not sure, so i'll I'm
not sure, but um, I do remember having to go
in the pool at pool, I call it a pool.
(40:34):
It was a COI pond. It's a lot of water
work you had to do in this episode to water
pond water. It was clean. I had to fall in
the Kui pond um. But yes, Jake and the CEO
of the company was so funny. It was just I
(40:55):
forgot about it. And then he just kept going and
going and I was like this, I was is crying.
I was like, this is so funny. I was like,
this is the whole thing. His love for him is
so genuine. And I love that. That's like the twist
because you think it's going to go into the formula
right of him like not liking him because he secretly
has a crush on Jess, but the fact that he
can't resist them it just I don't know. Copied by
(41:17):
surprise again in the rewatch and I absolutely loved it.
Died laughing and this episode, Okay, we're gonna do a
little true American to end uh this episode. Welcome to
true American where the rules change weekly and you leave
(41:37):
more confused them when you showed up. This week, we're
playing Sean Connery's rich tough guy quotes. Are we listening
to them? Joel? Or are we sorry? Know? If you
guys could do dramatic readings and then oh chat, if
you guys guess I don't do a good John Connery.
(41:59):
I think, however you read them, will be a lot
of fun. Okay, all right, la moren you go first.
You really don't remember, do you. We didn't pick you, You
You picked us. You volunteered right here, right here, even
after you were warned. I don't know whose voice I'm doing,
because they're not all Sean Connery, Why did you pick me?
(42:23):
You don't remember, do you? We didn't pick you, you
picked us. You volunteered right here, right here, even after
you were warned. Sounds like I don't even know what
None of these are movies. I would probably sounds like DRIs,
but it's not the Matrix. I'm gonna go ahead and
say this is the Born Ultimatum, the Jason Borne series.
(42:46):
I'm gonna say Star Wars, Star Wars. I just don't know,
so I'm thinking Star Wars. Um, it's the Born, It's
the Born ultimatum, is it? Is it? Yeah? Sorry, I
was dropping the answers in the chat. That's oh I
didn't see Okay, I can't cheating. Nobody knew. Zero points okay,
(43:12):
minus one for lamore and for cheating. I'm sorry. Okay,
right there for everybody to see the next one. Okay,
my dear girl. Some things that just aren't done, such
drinking Tom and y'all fifty three above the temperatures of
thirty degrees films. That's just as bad as listening to
(43:34):
the Beetles without bets so in hard notices are in
help the Beatles movie. The bad guys keep calling the
Beatles the Beatles so us reference. I have no idea
what this sounds like a James Bond us. This feels
(43:55):
very James bondy. I think it's the Pink panther. My,
I guess Star Wars James Bond this Goldfinger, gold Finger.
I don't know any of the bonds apart from any
other bonds bond and they gotta be. I mean, it
feels like it has to be a bond, like the
way Bond talks. And then it's fifty three, Like, who's
(44:17):
drinking wine from n that's very yeah, sorry, not wine, champagne, yes, champagne.
Um all right, Hannah, I can't even okay, if you're
dealing with a man who was crushed, shot, stabbed, and
(44:38):
detonated five members of his own I m F team,
how devastated do you think you're going to make him
by holland mom and uncle Donald down to the county courthouse.
I don't is that like a county courthouse, Matthew or something?
I don't know. I am it was very important Tea.
(45:00):
It's like a war movie because there's there is detonations.
I'm gonna go with the Hunt for Red October. I'm
going with Star Wars spy movie mission impossible. Whoa not
that was not? That was impossible for me. This is
(45:22):
all a mission impossible. This game you were playing along
at home and you've even gotten one. Bravo to you. Okay,
Oh my gosh, um morny. You want to take te
the seventies in the eighties. You're not missing anything. Believe me.
I've looked into it. There's a gas shortage and a
(45:43):
flock of seagulls. That's about it. Back to the but no,
I think this is a movie. It's not a spy movie.
I'm gonna go ahead and say tough guy, Austin power. Boom, Okay,

That was not going to be my That was top.

darn good excuse. That's true. That's true. I think so.
I think nobody's mad about it. Nobody's mad about it.
You were feeding you were doing a charity event. Yeah,
(00:52):
it wasn't it really an event. It was just you know,

It was cool. It was today we where I was
(01:13):
with Harry Schum Harry Shum love Harry. Yeah, and we
were making smoothies. Um, yeah, which I'm one of the best.
That That's like something that people always say whenever they
see me on the street. They always go, smooth man,
smoothie King. That's what secret? What's your secret? I'm not
gonna lie to you. You add a little bit of
(01:34):
a little bit more banana than you need. Oh that's
what I think. In a lot of smoothie shops, I'm like,
did you put like five bananas smoothie? Like I'll order
us smoothie and I'm like, I feel like I just
drink five bananas. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, super fruit. It
is really good. Bananas are delicious while you were doing
(01:56):
good good deeds. It gave me some time while you
were to part for the party. Um usually just sit
here with a glass of water and we go through
the podcast. I'm not gonna lie or a glass of wine.
Had a little afternoon delight I felt today you are drinking?
Is that water? No, girl, it's a little lemon lavender
(02:19):
um cocktail by It's called Straight and Narrow. It's a
company called Straight Narrow. I'm not even I don't. They
don't support our show or Brandon show. There is. It's
a gin cocktail. Oh good for you. I'm know you
were joking, but no, we're serious. Yeah, I know. I'm
recording this up in Canada and uh when Ida they
(02:40):
do a little booth here? Yeah, these Straight and narrows
keep me straight narrow, Lavender and fuse. Do you say
lavender and lemon keep you one thing. I want my
cocktail to taste like it's flowers. Yeah. For Hannah if
you guys folks at home, if you don't know, Hannah
is very aggressive and wild, so the lavender keeps her calm,
(03:03):
which we need her to have. It makes her sleepy.
I'm kidding. I actually I love lavender. It's one of
my favorite sense I've never tasted it, but oh wait,
you know what, I've had a lavender latte. I think yes,
and that's good. That is good. I'm bringing this back
for you. Um. All right, you guys very excited about
(03:26):
this episode. Fancy Man's Fancy Men. Fancy Man Part one?
All right, Lauren, do you want to read this little
recap of the first part of Fancy Man so it
reminds all of us. Jesse's student is exhibiting some dark
thoughts in her art, so she schedules a meeting with
(03:46):
the student's parents, who should arrive but Russell. Russell doesn't
adhere to Jess's experimental teaching styles and insist his daughter
at work with a tutor instead. Unfortunately for Jess, Russell
is the third large as donor in the school district.
Number one, of course, being me, which means she needs
to apologize. Meanwhile, Nick is struggling with his credit score.
(04:09):
I threw a joke in there that Nick has the
credit score of a homeless ghost, which means it's pretty low. Now,
since he weighs more than his credit score, he's unable
to secure a new phone. This causes him to have
a bit of an identity crisis. Winston, means where also
struggles with his confidence shocker, after Schmidt shows off his
superior intellect in front of Shelby. They had a trivia
(04:31):
nighted Schmidt was showing his butt. Winston really wants to
make things official with Shelby, but Schmidt's antics make him
second guess himself until Shelby reveals that she likes Winston
for who he is. Quite honestly, I think it's the mustache.
It turns out just likes Russell m m m m
m m mmmm, though it takes c C to point
(04:53):
it out to her. Russell can provide her with a car.
That's it. That's an important thing, a mechanic that's also
important in a new phone for Nick, and pretty much
more than any man she's ever dated. Even Nick falls
in love with Russell. Okay, sniffing on his sweater and
his that's my favorite weird storyline. Yeah, no, just that
(05:15):
him in Russell's office being says he smells like seeing
a man about a horse. I thought that was Yeah,
that's a good that was good. Now, after Russell saves
just from a Japanese Biday, which I love, I love
me a good old fashioned total I love a Japanese
to day. There's a story, by the way, there's a
story behind that storyline that I'll get to it. So
(05:41):
just after Russell saves her from getting wet about the
toilet water, agrees to go out with him. Now love
is in the air for all of a loft mates.
Not back to our shows. A good refresher. Yeah, I
think it was the fancy Man's for me. Yeah. Who
directed this episode? Peyton read Payton, Read love Peyton read Love,
(06:06):
Love Love Peyton. We love Peyton. What a great guy.
He directed a movie I did called Yes Man, And
when we started our first season of the show, I
sent him a little text and said, Hey, I'm doing
a TV show. Would you be up for directing an
episode or two? And he came into yeah, him, and
(06:27):
then Jesse Perette and Miguel Arteta, a number of people
that were my friends who were directors. I so I
roped In had a party at his house once, um
and was it Christmas party or something? I forget what
it was, probably, but he reminded me of Fancy Man.
You know, it's so funny. This is I was literally
(06:49):
going to tell the same story of Peyton had a
Christmas party, and I remember going and I felt a
little intimidated and overwhelmed, and I was like, you know what,
it's fine, just you know, trying to blend in. And
I remember Al Yankovic, Yeah, he's friends with Peyton, which
I didn't know. I guess this is like kind of
(07:10):
my first like industry party to go to. And he
was sitting on a couch by himself, and I just
remember being like, wow, I'm weird out, Like that's what
I want to do, Like that is my comfort zone
at a party, to find a couch, sit down, kind
of keep to myself. And I've never been starstruck slash
(07:34):
related to another human being in their party mode more.
That's what I remember. Peyton reads Christmas party, I met
weird al at and his lovely family at Peyton's house
at a party, and he sent me a Christmas card
via email every year since Quette Church and he never
(07:56):
sent me a Christmas card. Well, that's weird. Okay, Okay,
this episode, that episode. Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, we
love you, we love you out, we love whether a
church or a Christmas party. Um, right off the belt,
right off the back, guys. I do want to say this.
(08:16):
Randall Park is in this. I know. I didn't know that.
I didn't know he was every on our show. Randall
Park is in that opening moment in the cell phone
store cell phone store. I as soon as I saw that,
I went, whats with a hair do? That says some things? Okay,
I almost didn't recognize him. I know I did not
(08:40):
recognize him. You just said that, and I was like, wait,
what's the one in the scene. Yeah, I want to
take your credit for I want to be the first
one to say that New Girl is responsible for Randall Park.
Welcome Randall with this two lines. Yeah, it was a
wild moment. I thought. I thought too. I was like,
there's no way. I actually googled it because I'm like,
(09:01):
there's just no way that someone who just looks like
Randall Park exactly. Um, but it was him gracing our
show with his incredible talent. So that's a great shout
out to our casting department. On our show, we did
such an incredible job. We had the best the past.
I mean, we had such incredible guest actors coming in
(09:22):
every single week, and like every time I watched it,
I'm like, I'm reminded of who was on our show,
and I'm like, how do we get all these people?
It's pretty incredible. We get in this episode, we get
round to Park, we get Kelly Hawk, we got Dermott mulroney. Yes,
Dermott mulroney, So let's dive in. Dermott Moulroney plays Russell
(09:45):
fancy Man. Right, So how did this story? Did this
storyline come about in any particular way? Or is this just,
you know, another way to try to weave into the
will they won't there with Nick and Jess because we
bring into and we had Rachel Harris by I was
in that episode, but she she was recurring, so she
(10:06):
was in multiple episodes. But Rachel Harris is so so
funny playing my boss. Yes, absolutely, And if I'm forgetting anybody,
I'll go back in the whole morning. Well, there are
just too many great ones. That's what I feel like.
This is the first time we see Jess with like
now a boyfriend that we're going to have around, you know,
(10:27):
for a real storyline. You remember how you felt. So
when you found out, like, this is it. Okay, we're
in the show now and this is your love interest
for the season, I was like yeah, because Derma I
had met like he probably doesn't remember this, but I
had met him at like a play reading maybe you know,
a number of years before, and he was like so
(10:49):
incredibly nice. And he was like, oh, because he's I'm
a musician. He's a musician. He's like a really good
cello player. He like plays on sessions and know he's
a session cello player, Like you have to be so
good to be a session player. And he was like yeah,
if you ever need a cello player, here's my information.
(11:11):
Like he is so nice, And I remember being like,
what a nice guy. And then when they said he
was gonna that they that's who they wanted, I was like, absolutely,
he is such a nice guy and would be a
fun person to work with. Did he play the cello
at all these episodes. I forget, No, I think he
might have at some point. I remember Megan Wrath at
(11:34):
the like later seasons, she had to pretend to play
a cello, right, I remember that. For some reason, I
thought he did in like later later seasons, maybe like
he came back for a few episodes at the very end.
I mean, if they didn't have him use that skill,
what a waste? I mean, really, what a waste? Because
(11:55):
I do. I have so many skills and a new
girl to me over the seven seasons. Wasted a lot
of them because they never used tell me which ones
are those? I'm a horse, a horse whisper, you're a
horse whisper? Yeah, I like to whisper a horse's ears.
They didn't never let me do it. Not they don't
like it, But I do it. Yeah, I'll do it,
(12:15):
you know what I mean? Like a professional perfect can
juggle chainsaws? Oh my god, well I would love to
see that. They didn't take advantage of that one. Yeah,
I'm not good at it. Okay, then I don't. Please don't.
Then we don't want you. Please don't try to, at
least not on our watch, you know. Yeah, I won't
(12:35):
do it on the podcast, but I'll you know what
I mean, Like, if we ever, you know, gear up
for another rerun of a New Girl, I'll do it then, okay,
and then what else? Tell us? Honestly, if you just
look up, look laugh, look right, I'm behind you, I
can appear anywhere. Oh my god, are Yeah. Some people
(12:56):
call it stalking. That's what the police said, that's what said.
I call it appearing. I mean, honestly, I'd be delighted
if either one of you appeared in my midst at
any point. Delighted. I don't don't look up, don't look left,
don't look right, because I'll be there is little morning.
(13:20):
Wasn't that the term that they had in season five,
calling like being the doing the Biden? Just Biden him there,
Joe Biden to be there, just be there. You're doing
the Biden. That's what's happening now. Okay, So we're talking
(13:41):
about the show. The show. Okay, So so Nick. So
Nick is also enamored with with with Russell because he's
the opposite. He's he's the opposite. He's kind of the
person that Nick wants to be. But he We start
off by talking about how bad. His credit score is like,
that's his basically as it gets he has a very
(14:03):
very terrible it's it's a two fifty, right, and so
it's two and so everyone is shocked by this um
is that? Do you think Russell's um what do you
call it? Stature in life was intentional by writers like
let's make this someone who was directly opposite from Nick
(14:23):
and in it but in it? But but do you
think it was specifically for that reason of getting them
together at that point? It wasn't just like funny. I
think it's like to show how it can't work if
it's all the things that Nick isn't you know? It
seems like the perfect package. How could you say no?
(14:44):
Even Nick can't say no. Well, what's what's cool about
the two episodes back to back, and having just watched
both of them, is that the first one, it's like
Nick is the opposite a fancy man, and then the
second one offers Nick a chance to step into another
type of fancy man's status as he woos like a
(15:08):
college student. So it's there's definitely a progression of Nick
throughout these Fancy Men episode. Yeah, he gets a taste
of what it's like to be admired for what it
is he's doing, which is he's a bartender, you know,
(15:28):
which is great he can make would you guys be happier?
So Nick doesn't have a phone this episode, and he
makes it like his identity. Would you guys? Do you
guys think that you could survive for a while without
a phone? Would you be happier without your phone? No?
I couldn't survive without a phone, I don't think so.
I used to think that I was the guy who could.
(15:50):
But there's so much more responsibility now. Um, if I
were stuck, if I was in one location with my
my kid, then I feel I feel like everyone else
can handle themselves and I wouldn't need to have a
phone necessarily, but because I I think, like I want
my phone for emergencies. But I do think there's like
(16:10):
a major amount of time suck that happens with certain
um things like Instagram, which I enjoy very much. I
had to put a limit on myself, like because otherwise
I just like mindlessly, you know, yeah, just scrolling, just
(16:32):
scrolling memes. Cat memes, you guys. Cat memes are my favorite.
Instagram gives you the report. Instagram gives you the report
of how how many hours you spend that week? Yeah?
I did. The man they gave me a report said
that I spend a week. I didn't know it was
(16:54):
that many hours. Instagram Yeah yeah bro and yeah yeah
bro yeah bro. Um guys. In our notes it says
talk about working with Randall park Zoe. I'm like, I
didn't realize I was working with him. But I will say,
okay that I do like remember him separately as the
actor that I worked with on that day versus the
(17:18):
man he is today. Okay, And I remember him being
very nice and very funny and very professional. Nice what
if he would be? But you know what, I don't remember,
like really ever having anybody that was like, do you
remember having anybody that was like a big problem. I
think maybe we'll have to like go through and like,
(17:40):
you know, I don't know if I had necessarily called
them out, but I might mention him, but I don't
think because I don't want to like ruin anyone's careers.
But I can't remember any time that we had somebody
on the show where I was like, what a dud? No,
here's the thing that bumped me at the Fancy Man
Barbecue that Jeff's goes to. Okay, this is a very
(18:03):
like high to do party. It's catered, it's fancy. It's fancy. Man.
I inspired to that kind of party, like fun. It
was all put together. It was incredible at least. Then
like she finds them like work in the grill, and
I was like, come on, there's no way if he's
(18:23):
like supposed to like work through him and talk to
people and he has it fully catered. He's the one
turning sausages at the you know what those sometimes there,
I've had things. I've gone to people's houses who are
kind of fancy and they have a caterer and all
that stuff, and then they want to make the thing
(18:44):
that they're good at making. And a lot of guys
are kind of territorial about the grill barbecue. The girl
doesn't seem like the guy that would be like from
the grill mass. Maybe they're trying to surprise you, because
I do think it was weird that he took such
a turn from he's such a dick in the first
(19:05):
In the first scene when he walks in, he's like,
I know what's best for my daughter, miss day, Like
remember how he was in the first scene, I was like,
this guy's a jerk. Then all of a sudden he's
like totally nice and seems to respect. I do think
they were trying to give him a down to earth moment,
(19:28):
and that was the down to earth moment, like I'm
just here cooking the food. He's turning his own sausages.
Turning his own sausages was a part two that was
a little nuts. I'm like this man, it just keeps
handing like things out and a real bizarry. I've never
seen anybody just do that. They barely know. That just
(19:51):
goes to show you've never been to my house. You
are actually oddly generous, like you are very over. You
are extremely I will attest to that. I remember being
like morn Is like so nice, hold on to those watching,
what are you doing? I will never forget when we
booked New Girl, you had a friend who was just
(20:13):
a friend, and you're like, oh, she helped me, like
you know, read lines and get the show, and you
gave her a pair of Lubetan's right. I remember that
story and I was like, you don't need slow down.
I was like, do you have presents for people? That's
a really good present. If you hate money. So you
know what I thought was so sweet, Lamorn was when
(20:35):
I had my first baby, Elsie, you got me a
baby food maker, which was I was like, this is
so sweet and I'm like, I need this. This is
awesome gift. Yeah, you're you're because you're you're are a
bit of a fancy man. And speaking of which, we
started this whole podcast that you were out there turning
(20:56):
sausages this morning. I mean maybe you was bananas is
what he was doing in a big old blender. So
here's the big question that I was I wanted to
ask you guys, because um, Jess has a tell, right
if she has a crush on someone that she goes
into this like weird, funny British accent m or she
(21:18):
does the Kermit the Frog voice. I think Cecy's like,
please tell me. I think she does lots of weird voices. Yeah,
she gets into like these voices. Um, do you have
a tell when you when you like somebody? Well, I
only like one person. His name is Jonathan Scott. He's
from Canada. But there you go. You just did a
(21:40):
voice like that. I'm just no, I mean, I'm just
kidding with the voice um, I don't know. Um, like
when you first like somebody, Um, I don't know. I
can't think of anything other than you know, I feel
(22:04):
like all the normal stuff, like you know, texting people,
but I text my friends too. It doesn't mean I
like them like that. You know. There's no like weird
tell like just it's like a dead give. I don't
think so like a twitch like it's twitch I do
you do? What's your thing? I do? It's mine? Is
(22:25):
like it's post coital, you know. That's when I know
you like somebody. I engage them at that point. Yea, yeah,
that's when I know. That's when I know if we
engage in grown up stuff. Then I'm like, yeah, that's
not a tell. I don't otherwise. I don't think I
have a specific tell. Um. I think it's you know,
(22:48):
it's hard to date these days, so I think you
go out multiple times. I think if you if if
if you're continuously as on my side of the coin,
if I reach out multiple times to continue after the
first date, that's my tell. That's that's what it is,
because a lot of times I will I will be honest,
it's one date and then you know Felicia if my
(23:16):
if my everyday life takes precedent over me hanging out
with you again, then that's telling me. That's my tell
for myself. I go, I have to get this other
stuff done. But there are times where I go, I
put everyday life on the back burner to see that
person again, and then that would My thing is that I, um,
(23:37):
I look like I'm just like about to start laughing
all the time because there's like a voice in my
head the whole time. I'm trying to listen to you
and talk to you, but I have I know, I
don't know that you're going to be trouble for me,
and so there's like a voice in my head the
whole time going like it's like this guy is like
really hot and you really like him, and even so
you're talking so quietly, but that's what's happened in my brain,
(23:59):
the little voice of saying it. And then I'm like
laughing and I cannot hear a word that they're saying.
Do you still do that with Jesse? Yes, it's terrible.
He's the worst. I mean, it's very cute, it is,
but that that's a scary one to do. And I
(24:20):
know we're off topic a little bit. That's a scary
one to do because when you're not listening and you're
just giggling it what that person looks like, they're probably
telling you very important information like I'm a serial killer,
I watch you while you sleep? Where your underwear? And
you know that's that you avoid that person, but you
wouldn't know because you're not listening. Yea. Hopefully, my my
(24:42):
instincts of who I'm spending time with, UM has gotten
me past the super creepy people. So that's nice. Um, okay, guys,
speaking of um creepy people who will where your underwear
while you sleep. Um, we're going to go to break
I don't know why that bad transition, but we'll be
(25:08):
welcome and we're back. Hello everybody. So good? Can we
talk about like bar trivia dates, like a good like
pub quiz? Would that be? Like? I think it's tough
because you're like it can be. Those things can get
so competitive. It's like playing It's like if you're gonna
(25:30):
go play basketball with somebody on your first date, just
a little bit much. I would love that as a
first date or basketball. Not basketball. By the way, my
first date with Jonathan was an escape room, Lucy. That
sounds fun. It's the best, but like I didn't know
how to play. I didn't know like how you're supposed
to do it, Like it's kind of a there's a
(25:52):
learning curve. And I was like, what is happening? And
it was. He was there, and then we went to dinner,
and then his brother and sister in law met us,
and they were like all doing stuff like they knew
exactly what to do, and I was just standing there, like,
on your first date, you met the whole family. I'd
(26:12):
already met I' then he liked you bad, like if
like everybody they were supposed to come to dinner with us.
And then when he was like he was like not
sure if it was a date or not. He was like, so,
who's coming tonight and I was like just me and
he was like okay, and then he canceled everybody. Like
(26:37):
I say, trivia nights are great though, um for a
first date, I mean, because they sometimes do work out.
I'm not sure if you guys seen the hit classic
movie Game Night. Ums, just guys rent the movie? What
do you call? You don't rent it? You stream it? Sorry?
I'm all stream the movie Game Night starring Lamourne Morris
(27:01):
and also Rachel McAdams, right, Jason Bateman, jes plement. I
mean the cast means an incredible cast. Do you remember
shooting these bar trivia scenes? Well, they we we so
we did our trivia scenes in someone's home. But the
movie opens up with Jason episode. Oh, I thought we
(27:24):
were still talking about your career so game night. Uh no,
So in this one. You know what's interesting. While I
was watching it, there every once in a while, this
will happen when I do the rewatch. I don't remember
being there. I don't remember when I was watching it.
It was like I was watching it for the first time,
(27:44):
and I just thought, man, I don't remember shooting this scene,
and I don't know what it is about it, Maybe
because internally, I truly would feel some sort of way
if Schmidt was behaving that way. If I like the
girl and Schmidt was just, you know, showing so annoying,
it's so annoying for it to do that. So that's
(28:05):
I probably blocked it out of my memory, you know,
So it was gone that moment. But your method acting,
Daniel day Lewis, is what they said when they see
me on the street. That I was going, Man, is
that a Is that a Daniel d? Yeah? And I
go yeah, yeah, yeah, the Smoothie King. Absolutely, yeah, that's me.
Isn't there like a smoothie place called Smoothie King? I
(28:27):
think is that your Is that your joint? I don't know,
but I could be the spokesperson for Smoothie King. Guys.
Opportunity right here, guys, you're hearing it here first. Um, yeah,
but I think the I think I think a trivia
night a bar t of your night because you can
tell a lot by a person's personality. You can tell
(28:49):
a lot of their personality due to how competitive they
may be, how passive they may be, how smart they
may be with useless information. You know. Yeah, I think, yeah,
it would be fun. I mean I love a game night. Yeah,
I guess what you're saying. There's a flip of it.
It would be very telling of if you're you're doing
that as a date and the other person is actually
(29:10):
concerned about winning or losing. That to me, all of
a sudden becomes a bummer of a date, Like if
you're there just to have fun and who cares if
you get one answer right and you're just enjoying the
show of everybody else having high stakes on it. That's
a fun night to me. But if you actually care,
like I'm out by, because that's why have you guys
ever played that game? Balder dash game, it's where they
(29:36):
have they have like categories. It's like movie book laws,
like a number of things, and they'll give you a
title of a movie, say, or a book, and then
you have to write the like synopsis and um, and
then you write down like the person who's like the
(29:59):
center of the game writes down like the real thing,
and then everybody turns in there like fake answers, and
then you read them all together. You get points if
people pick your fake answer, and you get points if
you pick the real one. But that one's really fun
because I a lot of times play just to make
people laugh, like I just say like stupid stuff to
(30:19):
make people laugh, like not caring whether I get points
or not. And I like that one because you can
kind of play for laughs or like play for real
and everybody's welcome. They have another game that's essentially that
game called you play phibbish on through jack Box TV
(30:40):
or something like that, and it's everyone has their own
phones and you can write down. We get this during
quarantine a lot. So that's the thing I never knew that.
I never knew that you never want to play an
online I never want to have an online party again.
Don't you feel like I feel like, I'm like, we
did that, just like just s gradually itch of being
(31:00):
around people. But I'm like, I don't want to have have
a Zoom party again. But I did. I did like
doing that. I did like playing that game, and that
was very fun. So thanks for the memories. Speaking of memories,
one of the most memorable parts of this episode is
you in a real, like almost karate fight with the bidet,
which is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
(31:23):
I'm like, that looked like a violent assault that that
toilet was doing to you. Okay, so here's what happened,
and this this is true story. Okay, alright, remember when
we had the first season, which this was UM. We
had a big giant dinner with the heads of the
(31:44):
studio and the network. Like it was like Dana Walden
who basically runs Hollywood now she's like a super super
um smart, powerful executive. UM. We had had um like
Kevin Riley, we had Gary Newman, We had Peter turn In.
(32:06):
Kevin Riley ran the network. Gary Newman also was um
with running the studio with data, and then we had
Peter turn In, who was one of our exact producers.
It was a big wig dinner, okay, Like these are
like very very like high up people, okay, at at
(32:26):
Fox and they had a big dinner to celebrate our
wonderful um show success, which was so exciting. And Liz
was sitting next to me, and I think Peter Turning
was like on the other side of me. I think
Gary was sitting close by too, And I got up
to use the restroom. I walked in the restroom and
(32:48):
there's this like toilet right and it has like a
there's like a bunch of buttons on this side. I
have no idea, like, I'm like, and it's closed, and
I'm like, well, how do I open it? So I
pressed some buttons. The toilet like opens and starts like
squirting me with what I get my entire Yeah, I
(33:14):
pressed the wrong button. Okay. I got sprayed on my
dress with toilet water. And when I went back to
my seat, I was like Liz, Liz, and She's like,
what I'm like a Japanese toilet just like assaulted me
in the bathroom and she's like what, I like, my
(33:34):
squirt is all wet because in Japanese toilet like white
crazy and started squirting me. Anyway, Liz thought this was
hilarious and put it in the um the episode and
which because it was like we were with these very
very um powerful people, right and um, so that's the story.
(33:56):
And we were at a place and do you remember
the restaurant we're at. It was in um it was
like a steakhouse in Beverly Hills. It was like there.
It was in a private room. Yeah, we had a
big square table. Okay, wait, hang on, it's still there. Um,
(34:20):
hang on Mastros? Was that a Mastros? Yeah? Huh, that's interesting.
I don't I didn't get that invite. Know you were there.
I was eating a bologna sandwich. You were, So that
was so that was pulled from a real experience because
(34:41):
I also remember there's a scene where you were and
I are talking, I'm giving you advice about you know,
taking a chance in dating like a man instead of
a boy, and you're holding your bunny phone case and
wasn't that your real phone case? Um No, it wasn't.
I thought there was like a phone case or something
(35:03):
of yours that you I don't know, that they had
stolen from your real life and put in the show.
Don't remember what. Look, it's not out of the realm
of possibility. It might have been my case. I'm not sure,
I think. But here's actually I think what happened that
it was in the show and that I liked and
ordered one. I was like, I love that phone game.
(35:25):
This is so cute. I just remember having a conversation
with you, and I thought it was about that phone case,
which is like, there's like they're starting to kind of
like mine, our real experience definitely, and it's like there's
there's stuff that's not like just about me, and then
(35:45):
there's a lot of stuff. Then there's stuff that's totally
you know, like Jess. So but that is something I
would rock without regrets. I'd be proud of my bunny
phone case. You know. It's funny too. When I watched
that episode and Nick goes into um Russell's office, there's
(36:06):
some like black and white framed art um of uh,
like I don't know, like the Savannah in Africa somewhere
with like an elephant on it. You see it in
the background. And in the final season of New Girl,
that exact art is hanging in Nick's office in his room,
(36:31):
in his office. And so when New Girl ended, Um,
I actually bought my first home and I've always lived
in an apartment and I bought this home and I
was like, I didn't have enough stuff to even begin
to fill a home. And I remember, Um, Michael Wheatstone
(36:52):
was sort of like, help yourself to anything to use
that you really like, and then stuff can be placeholders
until you find a things that you really want or
if you like it, just keep it. Yeah, and that
black and white because I've I've traveled there and spent
time there and whatever. I was like, I love this.
And so that actually is in my house now, Oh
(37:12):
my god, from the fancy man's office to my house.
That's so funny. I have I have the watermelon and
the like botanical um print from my room that are
up in my house. I don't think I have any No,
I do have artwork from them. I took. I'm not
gonna I took a lot of stuff. Yeah, I think
(37:34):
we all kind of really did a lot of shopping.
Asked for I only asked for three things. Yeah, but
I took Ferguson's tombstone. I took the space did not?
Did you really? Yeah? I have that the space orgy
that happened. I took that painting. I have the basketball
hoop from the loft. You took a cat's tombstone. I
(37:54):
keep it in my front yard so when people come,
they go, oh my god, you buried someone here, and
go pete to ye. But yeah, they don't know as
a capitally think it's a person. Welcome to guys. Where's
(38:18):
the bears? Hannah? Have you have you? Have you figured
it out this episode? Okay? So um, I will say
besides the bear on the refrigerator and Fancy Man Part one,
I don't find any other bear references. But I'm gonna
say this because it happened a couple of weeks ago
when we did our Injured episode, I was like, I
(38:41):
couldn't find any bears, and then people were commenting in
on my Instagram post about there was a bear and
I had missed it, and I realized, this is what
needs to happen now on this podcast. Okay, as we
go through this season, and we're going to start taping
these upcoming episodes. Message me if you find the bear,
(39:04):
and then I will read that aloud and share it
here on the show. Help me. I need this to
be a team effort from our listeners. So after Fancy
Man Part one, we're going to do part two. So
after that going on from that, if you see bears,
let me know and help me out, because I'm a
believer in the bear in every eppisode, Please please let
us know. And right now I'm not doing the best
(39:26):
job as the lone man on campus. Hunting be your segments,
so I don't say anything. This end of this episode,
I will say is one of the funniest tags I
feel like we did in the entire series, where Jake
is pretending to be like a CEO or president of
(39:48):
Planet Earth behind the desk and just it's I have
to fall into a pond, a coy pond at like
three in the morning. Did you really do? Yeah? I don't.
I have an amazing stunt double, But but I fell
into the I fell into the pool. I had to like,
(40:12):
I can't remember whether she did the falling and then
I had to do the getting up or whether I
just I think I might have just done the falling
there because I do remember that I had to be
in the pool, but I'm not sure, so i'll I'm
not sure, but um, I do remember having to go
in the pool at pool, I call it a pool.
(40:34):
It was a COI pond. It's a lot of water
work you had to do in this episode to water
pond water. It was clean. I had to fall in
the Kui pond um. But yes, Jake and the CEO
of the company was so funny. It was just I
(40:55):
forgot about it. And then he just kept going and
going and I was like this, I was is crying.
I was like, this is so funny. I was like,
this is the whole thing. His love for him is
so genuine. And I love that. That's like the twist
because you think it's going to go into the formula
right of him like not liking him because he secretly
has a crush on Jess, but the fact that he
can't resist them it just I don't know. Copied by
(41:17):
surprise again in the rewatch and I absolutely loved it.
Died laughing and this episode, Okay, we're gonna do a
little true American to end uh this episode. Welcome to
true American where the rules change weekly and you leave
(41:37):
more confused them when you showed up. This week, we're
playing Sean Connery's rich tough guy quotes. Are we listening
to them? Joel? Or are we sorry? Know? If you
guys could do dramatic readings and then oh chat, if
you guys guess I don't do a good John Connery.
(41:59):
I think, however you read them, will be a lot
of fun. Okay, all right, la moren you go first.
You really don't remember, do you. We didn't pick you, You
You picked us. You volunteered right here, right here, even
after you were warned. I don't know whose voice I'm doing,
because they're not all Sean Connery, Why did you pick me?
(42:23):
You don't remember, do you? We didn't pick you, you
picked us. You volunteered right here, right here, even after
you were warned. Sounds like I don't even know what
None of these are movies. I would probably sounds like DRIs,
but it's not the Matrix. I'm gonna go ahead and
say this is the Born Ultimatum, the Jason Borne series.
(42:46):
I'm gonna say Star Wars, Star Wars. I just don't know,
so I'm thinking Star Wars. Um, it's the Born, It's
the Born ultimatum, is it? Is it? Yeah? Sorry, I
was dropping the answers in the chat. That's oh I
didn't see Okay, I can't cheating. Nobody knew. Zero points okay,
(43:12):
minus one for lamore and for cheating. I'm sorry. Okay,
right there for everybody to see the next one. Okay,
my dear girl. Some things that just aren't done, such
drinking Tom and y'all fifty three above the temperatures of
thirty degrees films. That's just as bad as listening to
(43:34):
the Beetles without bets so in hard notices are in
help the Beatles movie. The bad guys keep calling the
Beatles the Beatles so us reference. I have no idea
what this sounds like a James Bond us. This feels
(43:55):
very James bondy. I think it's the Pink panther. My,
I guess Star Wars James Bond this Goldfinger, gold Finger.
I don't know any of the bonds apart from any
other bonds bond and they gotta be. I mean, it
feels like it has to be a bond, like the
way Bond talks. And then it's fifty three, Like, who's
(44:17):
drinking wine from n that's very yeah, sorry, not wine, champagne, yes, champagne.
Um all right, Hannah, I can't even okay, if you're
dealing with a man who was crushed, shot, stabbed, and
(44:38):
detonated five members of his own I m F team,
how devastated do you think you're going to make him
by holland mom and uncle Donald down to the county courthouse.
I don't is that like a county courthouse, Matthew or something?
I don't know. I am it was very important Tea.
(45:00):
It's like a war movie because there's there is detonations.
I'm gonna go with the Hunt for Red October. I'm
going with Star Wars spy movie mission impossible. Whoa not
that was not? That was impossible for me. This is
(45:22):
all a mission impossible. This game you were playing along
at home and you've even gotten one. Bravo to you. Okay,
Oh my gosh, um morny. You want to take te
the seventies in the eighties. You're not missing anything. Believe me.
I've looked into it. There's a gas shortage and a
(45:43):

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
