Peanut Butter Jelly Time!

An instant request and more in the series of Kevin and Bean insulting celebs!

Episode Transcript

(00:00):
All right, let's move on to, I think Lindsay told me there was
an instant request that we had to share, and I have that right,
Right. Lindsay, there was an instant
request from Instagram. I didn't tell you any of those
things. You came up with all of this
information yourself. All right, well, I appreciate

(00:22):
the credit, but you need to giveyourself your credit.
When the show started, when we logged in, Lindsay said I have
an instant request, but you haveit because I was the one that
went and found it, right? Julie, a teacher, she left a
message on Instagram. I was hoping you would explain
it this way. You see, you're trying to create
moments with putting it, puttingit right out there.

(00:42):
My segment. I just asked you to make it an
instant request instead of part of messages.
That was my contribution. See, she asked, she asked to
make it an instant request. And here I am now I'm trying to
explain it and get a little helpinclude Lindsay and she's
leaving me out there, putting meout there on the plank.
All right, instant request time.Listen.

(01:04):
Up everyone. You.
Instant Make a request. Instant Request.
Instant request. Kevin Abean I have been teaching
elementary school for 20 years and for at least 18 years of
those I have eaten a peanut butter and Jelly sandwich for
lunch. I have it with an apple and a
bottle of water. The whole school knows what I
eat every day. We used to have a school wide
assembly and the peanut butter Jelly song with the baseball bat

(01:25):
would be played and I would jumpup and down and dance.
That's Jules. That is a total teacher, an
apple, PB and J and water. I love.
It also jail, that's true, but you talked.
About your identity being. What you eat.
Because. Jules, this case is she's the
peanut butter Jelly. Leader.
That's sad, isn't it? No, I think it's.
Awesome. OK, I think it's awesome.

(01:47):
All right, so I was hoping that Lindsay would give the back
story but this is a message thatcame in from Instagram from
Julie Groff and she wrote to dayon my Facebook.
A post from 7 years ago came up.Kevin and Bean had the call in
topic of eating the same thing every day.
Bean read my e-mail on the radioof the same lunch I eat at
school every day, PB and J. It was so exciting to hear them

(02:11):
talk about me. I have now been teaching for 27
years at Lincoln Elementary in Long Beach and still.
And I'm still eating the same lunch.
And then she goes on to say she enjoys our show and she's been
listening to Kevin and Bean since the 90s and listening to
us since 2021 and 2021. Longest time.
But thank you, Julie. And then I went to the archive

(02:32):
and found it. It is from 2018, actually.
October 18th, 2018. And I got to say, I eat a peanut
butter and Jelly sandwich at work almost every day too.
They're delicious. Nice little snack.
There you go. Hey, make me some PB and J I've
had one forever. With some crunchy peanut butter

(02:55):
and some of that fancy French Jelly.
Yeah. Yeah, I spent an entire semester
ordering at our dining hall in college, PB and J and soup, and
it was amazing. Soup's always good.
Bean says that he eats his peanut butter and Jelly with the
sourdough. I've never had that and I don't
want to try it. It's good.

(03:17):
It is. Not as good as Wonder Bread, but
it's pretty good. OK, yeah, I'm, I'm more of an
American Wonder Bread white breader.
All right, let's go back to 3/4 Human Podcast with Kevin Slug.
And now it's Cat because Marcy is too busy.
She ain't got time for this. So Kevin was talking about a

(03:41):
moment where he had Snow Patrol on Kevin and Bean and well, it
didn't go well. I had an offhanded comment where
the guy from Snow Patrol was in and they were gonna perform
live, but it was questionable because he had some throat
issues with singing and stuff and he wasn't sure he's going to
be able to do it. And he apologized ahead of time

(04:02):
if it sounded bad because he hada bad throat.
And I tried to formulate a joke in my head that wasn't even
funny in my. Head but when?
I said it out loud. It was even worse.
I was like, it's not like you'reZach from Rage Against the
Machine. Shit.
And it was meant. It was meant for him to.
Go right but. He he was pissed.

(04:25):
And have you ever seen one of our shows?
Oh no, yes, I am. I like your band, actually.
I was just trying to be funny. And he didn't think that was
funny at all. Snow Patrol not laughing at
themselves. Shocked.
Anyhow, that prompted me to go to the archive, look up the Snow

(04:48):
Patrol interview, and well, I pulled it up.
You. Know the first time.
I'm maybe. Looking for some.
Money or? Reference A reference for
another. Band or something?
The the first time I read that, I have to be honest, I kind of
laughed a little bit because, you know, you guys are Snow
Patrol. You're not Zach, you're not the
Zach de la Rocha or whatever screaming your head off guys.

(05:09):
Seems like it's that's a problemfor almost every lead singer of
every band at some point in their career.
Yeah, the interview went S from there.
Actually there wasn't much on the tape.

(05:31):
I want to say that that the screaming your head offline is
like justifies everything he's saying because it's not
insulting his vocal tolerance. It's saying he's not screaming
like that's that makes it OK forme.
That doesn't mean an insult. And I, I listened to this long
segment and Snow Patrol. I didn't know they were Scottish

(05:51):
and Irish did not know that, butthey are.
They were also not very interesting, but they were they
were talking about how he had tohave surgery because of because
of singing so much. And Kevin made that comment
because he doesn't yell. He sings really nice and gently.
But I guess in the studio there was tension.

(06:14):
Maybe a chair was thrown. The the whole interview was
long. And then they did a couple of
songs which were Snow Patrol. So that that's all you need to
hear from that interview. Anyhow, let's move on to the
next. Patrol, I say no patrol.
Exactly. What was that interview?
Shit, I don't know. I didn't look it up.

(06:36):
I I, I was pissed. Honestly.
I wanted some kind of like moment where they said something
back to Kevin, like I sing or wewe have a lively show or
something and nothing happened. I guess they got told off here.
I was kind of, I was waiting forsomething.
You know, you get those expectations of them being Dicks

(06:59):
and you want you want to hear that story.
But going back to the other theme of this roundup, Kevin and
Bean were Dicks. Bean got a letter or a e-mail
from somebody that shows he was a Dick.
So let's hear that. Bean's a Dick song.
Dick. Dick, Dick What a Dick Dick Dick

(07:29):
what a giant Dick Dick Bean is aDick Dick Dick all.
Right, so here's the here's the letter.
And if you'll permit me, I want to share something with you that

(07:51):
our beloved teabagger Lindsay sent to us.
Brace yourself. Get ready to write an apology.
Nobody wanted to see Rainn Wilson starring in a movie as a
naked drummer. America had spoken with their
pocketbooks. I was done for.
As a movie star, this was one ofthe most painful experiences of
my life. I had poured my heart and soul
into the film as well as into its promotion.

(08:13):
I genuinely believed and still believe that it's a terrific
family film with great music anda ton of heart.
I was devastated. It's the Tuesday morning after
the Rockalipse 5:30 AM. I'm driving to work in my Prius
down the desolate One O 1 freeway.
Absolutely spent and miserable. Kevin and Bean from K Rock are
on the radio. They start yapping like puppies

(08:35):
on helium about the weekend movies in the top 10 box office.
List OK. Was that necessary?
We yapping like puppies on Helium Alley were.
We. First of all, Rain, you said the
desolate 101. I stopped listening because
you're full of shit. Wait a minute, one of them says.
What about that Rain Wilson comedy?
I don't even see it on the list.Oh no.

(08:57):
The other DJ says look here. It opened all.
The way down at #12O Ouch, that's got a sting.
Poor rain. The guy must be hurting right
now. Oh, poor guy, it bombed.
What about his impression of Devin a bead?
What about that? Nailed it.
Is that what we sounded like? Really.
Their voices ring with pity and concern throughout the crappy

(09:19):
interior of my Prius. I started to cry, tears sliding
down my cheeks, driving down thepitch black pre dawn one O 1 to
my job at the office, where fortunately the cast and crew
cheerily and diplomatically didn't mention the film or ask
how it performed. Thank God I had a pretty good
day job. So here we go Definitely a Dick,

(09:46):
right? You hear that clip?
Not exclusively Bean though, like Mark Hoppus called Bean out
or I mean Bean was clearly the one who said the thing, but this
was this was a group effort. Plus that would have been the
showbiz beat, so it could have been Ralph as well.
Well, so this made me run to thearchive.
I stopped the podcast when running to the archive, looked

(10:08):
it up and well, Rayne Wilson is a lying liar who lies.
So here. Here's that whole morning
showbiz beat. Let's take a look at the showbiz
news. As always on every Monday's
Showbiz beat, I like to take a look at the top 10 movies at the
box office this weekend. Tropic Thunder once again number
one at the box office this weekend, little over

(10:29):
$16,000,000. Number one, the house Bunny with
our pal Anna Ferris came in at #2 just slightly under Tropic
Thunder, made $15 million in his.
Opening weekend. Death, you know, I didn't know,
but she's one of the Co writers and producers of that movie as
well. You're kidding.
Yeah. How did you?
I guess because you were in Vegas is the answer.
But when Catherine McPhee is in a movie and you don't know,

(10:51):
there's got to be something. Keeping you away.
If I hadn't been here in Vegas all weekend, I actually would
have gone. Although she is pregnant and
that kind of takes kind of buzz away for for me.
Death Race came in #3 that's watch it Lee.
It was $12.4 million. The Dark Knight still in the top
five at #4, Star Wars The Clone Wars was #5 and Pineapple
Express mirrors the long shots the new Fred Durst directed.

(11:15):
Oh, that's the Ice Cube movie. Heartfelt Comedy with The Ice
Cube came in at number eight, $4.3 million in its debut, then
Mamma Mia and The Mummy Tomb of the Dragon Emperor.
So these are the 10 movies that made the top 10 big hits.
Tropic Thunder, House Bunny, Long Shots.
I mean, he was beat out by a Fred Durst movie, but let's go

(11:41):
where they bring up rain. What about our pal Rain Wilson,
who was hoping for $18 million for the?
Rock the Rocker didn't even showup.
It didn't even dawn on me. It's not even in the top 10.
Dude, that's. Got to stink.
That. Has got to hurt because we.
Love him. Jenna Fisher is.
Dead. She must be because she was in
strong. Hey, he's.
Not going. To let around until he made
$18.7 million in the opening weekend.

(12:01):
My what? Happens you.
Put Robin on you on your movie poster.
My nieces and nephews went to see it.
They're 10-8 and seven and they loved it.
They could not stop talking about how it was one of the
best. They loved it was the best movie
they ever saw, you know, for little kids.
So I don't know, I mean. That was.
A great movie but I think it waspoorly marketed.
But I I I've been talking about it for a week now, how much I
liked it. The impression I got from Ralph

(12:22):
was that, and he had the same impression before he saw it, is
that it's way better than it makes you think when you look at
the commercial. Absolutely.
And I'm, I'm really, I just didn't.
Damn it, Donna my bean. But I'm sad now that I say it's
not even in the top ten. Yeah.
That stinks. That stinks.
That's bad. Rain will stay on the office, it
looks like. So they had nothing but nice
things to say about the movie that I think they I think they

(12:47):
started negative. But I will say unless have you
listened to every single showbizbeat that day?
Because they could have gone in on that earlier or later?
Rain said he was driving at 5:30AM.
So this is the showbiz beat he'sreferencing.
You know, this is this has got to be it.
This is this, this is a 6:00 AM one because it starts on the

(13:07):
negative side. Like all you hear is the
beginning. So I can OK the the I don't know
why it did that. Yeah, I press pause.
No, I had my hands. I'm gonna have to keep my hands
up here. But the The thing is, it's like
it didn't start out negative forme.
They're like what happened to the movie?
Where is it? Where is it?

(13:28):
Cuz I from going based off of the recording and probably the
arcade they had Rain Wilson in before the movie was released,
that's where he was making the, he made the joke about having
Jenna Fischer in his trunk and, and all this so that he can make
the 18,000,000. And they're like, well, what
happened to his movie? Why?
Why isn't he in the top ten? And then they went and broke it

(13:49):
down. But then they gave it a nice
review so that people can go seeit because frankly it is
marketed poorly. I mean, Rainn Wilson's in his
underwear like he's trying to beWill Ferrell.
I mean, it was enough negative that like the positives
afterward are just like one would not even hear them,
especially if it's that personalto him.

(14:10):
So I yeah, they could have, I don't.
They could have left it off. They could have, they could have
not mentioned it and not given them any more promotion or
anything. They could have just not said
anything. They could have not said
anything about the whole thing and just left it alone.
But yeah, I'm OK with that rain.I'm with you.
What? I find interesting is so when

(14:35):
did Rain write that book? Years later, right.
So it's just. Kind of how.
People remember things even though that's not really what
happened. You know what I mean?
Like, I think they were nice about it.
It was fine. They would like, they said our
friend Rain Wilson, they were, you know, it's all good, but I
just kind of wonder if he wrote that years later.

(14:55):
But that's what he remembered, he said.
His his autobiography was written in 2015 or published in
2015. And if he wrote like Kevin, he
started writing it right after this came out.
I think if it caused him to cry like then, it was probably a

(15:18):
like a domino effect, just like Mark Hoppus said.
Mark Hoppus, right? Yeah, yeah.
That, like all of this stuff hadbeen happening in the background
and then like those comments kind of left it over the edge.
So. But we got to move on.
Moving on. I don't know.
My my ruling is Bean is not a Dick.
My ruling is Bean is not a Dick.I don't think anyone's a Dick,

(15:41):
but I don't think it is. It was paid as much of
compliment as you're giving it. So moving on.
If Bean said all those nice things about this podcast, he
never says nice things about ourpodcast and we don't cry.
So moving on. So yeah, Rain, you're wrong.
Jen, what did you think? I don't I about the movie.

(16:04):
Or were they Dicks? Were they Dicks?
No, they're not Dicks. See, I didn't say they're Dicks
either, but again, moving on. Moving.

This is the outro for everyone who complaints about not having

(16:27):

to the success of that show. Well said, bye bye.
