Hey guys, it's Matt major from growth mode content
welcome To good news York. I was gonna say what
day it is. I genuinely don't know what day. Oh,
yeah. I got you feels like I Don't know. I have
nothing funny to say here. That's how fucked
up I am guys. We've got some fun topics to talk
about and Behind the scenes we're trying some
new tech stuff. Yeah. To make the show a little
more efficient and things of that nature. So
I'm kind of excited to see how that goes. Yeah,
we are for episode 90. Made it easier to cut
clips on the fly. But eventually we're going
to be we're going to be live soon. Do it live.
Fuck it. We'll do it live. Yeah, that's going
to be soon. But we don't really have a set time
on that yet. But that way we can interact, interact.
That sounded dirty. Interact with viewers and
listeners, which I love that aspect. You know,
we haven't. We haven't done that. We did it backwards.
Remember when we started, we were live, and then
we realized, why the hell are we putting this
much pressure on ourselves when we're still trying
to build this thing? So we went to recording
and now we'll be live at some point. What you
got today, buddy? Well, we got a bunch of different
things, man. So the first thing I want to jump
into was this video that I discovered a little
while ago. It's a person on TikTok. And this
woman and her fiancee husband, I'm not sure,
are from the UK. You'll clearly hear their accent.
Love it. They live in the United States now.
I believe in the Boston area. But they are very
into traveling and checking out different parts
of the United States that aren't the most, aren't
like Disneyland. Right. And I discovered them
because they recently took a trip to the Adirondacks.
Oh, I saw this. Yeah, they made a number of videos
about how great it was and how great the time
was. And, you know, as Good News York, I couldn't
think of anything that was more good or more
positive for our empire state than than somebody
like this who was coming here and experiencing
it for the first time. And it's awesome. It's
it's almost it's almost. It gives them more clout
that not only are they not from upstate New York,
but they're from a different country. Because
I think we are as Americans and upstate New Yorkers,
we are so bad at appreciating what we have and
not realizing how good we have it in many ways
that we won't get into. But so when you hear
somebody from another country come, especially
to a place that's not exactly talked about a
lot like the Adirondacks or upstate New York,
you're like, oh, wow. You know what? This lady's
right. Bloody hell, she's right. You know, like
I said, it just sells the point. I think you're
absolutely right, buddy. So let's take a look.
She is now back in Boston in this particular
video. She's just given a little recap of her
trip to New York. And she lives in Boston? I
believe so. I'm not an expert. What's her address?
In Boston, I'm going to do a debrief of my Adirondack
and Upstate New York trip. Make sure that audio
button's clicked. I want to say hello to anyone
that's following me now from Upstate New York.
I have loved how passionate you've been and all
your feedback, all your help. Welcome, welcome,
welcome. I live in Boston. Just so you know,
I travel around as much as I possibly can. It's
a huge passion of mine. And I take you all with
me. And you all seem to love it. This is the
part that I love people to hear. I'm just entranced
by her accent. There is beauty in all these places.
I am so happy with all of my choices. Let's just
stop there Why did I choose upstate New York?
Because I've heard it's beautiful and I live
in Boston and it was a drivable place that we
could go to it would feel like a remote type
Trip to the Labor Day weekend. We wanted to take
our dogs and do some nice stuff. We love hikes
We love walking the Adirondacks is obviously
great for that. Why would you not again? Like
I said this about Michigan why not why wouldn't
you go there it's absolutely stunning it was
such a beautiful trip another thing that kept
happening to me is can you pause this for a second
i've got my itinerary down you've all helped
me with the best place so we're going to watch
just another minute or so of this because it's
i just think it's phenomenal again it just speaks
to your point we don't know how good we have
it here and and when you see someone an outsider's
perspective Coming here, I just hope this clicks
for everybody. To me, specifically, the Adirondacks
have always been my favorite place on Earth.
And the fact that we have them for us a little
over an hour away's drive is everything to me.
But to find a stranger come and discover our
land is a... It's pretty cool. It dawned on me
how great we have it when my band years ago played
in Mason City, Iowa. OK. And if you don't know
anything about Iowa other than corn, that's all
you need to know. It was genuinely corn and open
fields for hundreds and hundreds of miles. When
we saw a building, we were like civilization.
So when we got back and like, you know, every
day I take a trip from Ithaca to Syracuse and
back. Sure. We have those beautiful mountains.
You know, fall foliage, you gotta love that.
And it made me realize, like, man, I never realized
how lucky we are in that aspect. There's one
other point that I want you to hear from this
young lady, who, by the way, her name's Juliette,
which is my daughter's name, so it's kind of
like a special place in my heart. But she's gonna
talk about something else, I think, in just a
moment here that I wanna listen to. I'm definitely
mistaken because when the comments come pouring
in, when you'll see my videos, you're recommending
a million other places that weren't even on the
map for me and I don't have time for them all.
People get upset because I haven't gone to some
of the places that will rec - love your recommendations
and what I do with all the other comments that
I can't get to is I save them down. Even share
a picture of my - Also, this is just a note for
aspiring content creators. Grab your phone on
your way to work and make a video. That's all
it is. That's all it takes. I get a little bit
annoyed with me because if there's stuff near
me, like I want to get to it. This is what audio
should sound like at AirPods. Ends up happening
is I get really overwhelmed with how amazing
this country is. And then that just turns from
anxiety into gratitude. And I end up just feeling
this was not the part that I was sorry. I thought
it was coming up next. I do a lot of like gratitude
yaps and stuff like that I'm like extremely grateful
for my life and the opportunity to live here
but what I've got access to look at what is available
here even in the places that you don't necessarily
think are the top top spots for beauty are still
all right you can uh you can pause this Tani
um if you want Buddy, just click on her profile
and if you don't mind scrolling back a little
bit, she's got a couple other videos she made
in the Adirondacks and I just think it's great
because just seeing, again, seeing people discover
these things and that's just kind of another,
as much as I love New York and I'm an advocate
for exploring that, explore everywhere. Like
what? As cool as it is to see these things in
videos. Me? Yeah. We just started the Cobble
Hill trail. We're going with the dogs. This is
a very dog friendly hike and Ollie is in shorts.
You must be freezing your titties off. Titties!
Arthur's doing this one, slowly but surely. As
much as I love living in Boston, I love. We don't
have to go through all these, but I recommend
you do. We're obviously gonna tag this. She's
got a number of videos where she shows great
things in the Adirondacks. And also just in general,
she's kind of a, I guess you'd say a travel vlogger.
So there's a lot of other places in the United
States that she and her fiance are checking out
and making some cool videos. But the thing that
I wanted to get to, and I don't, it's in one
of those videos, she makes a very big point.
to recognize the gratitude of the upstate New
Yorkers and how welcoming all of them were to
her surprise when she visited the Adirondacks.
Well, you know, if you've ever been to New York
City, New York is known and it's well documented.
Everybody's pissed off because everything you
have to do in New York, that you would do anywhere
else, you got to add extra 30 minutes. You want
to go to the grocery store? Well, now you got
to take a train. And you've also learned, stay
out of people's business. Just walk straight.
They don't realize that upstate is a whole different
lifestyle. You know, here's the thing, people
in the city, I don't even think they're pissed
off, it's just that fast -paced, you know what
I mean? And a lot of folks aren't even necessarily
mad or rude in the city, but they're not just
bubbly and friendly. They gotta catch train.
When you come upstate, especially to these places
in the Adirondacks that live on tourism and live
on visitors and things, it's not like New York
City where all these people are in my way. We
love you here and we want to help celebrate what's
beautiful about our area. And nobody wants nobody
wants to say hello when they're like, I just
got pissed on by a homeless person. You know
what I mean? They're in a different world. It's
what I also love about Julia is not only did
she choose upstate, she went. upstate because
you know we've talked about this before people
down in the city or that don't know anything
about New York they go 40 minutes outside of
the city and they think they're upstate which
okay technically they are but we know it's it's
uh there's there there's more up here than just
trees and bears um or there's not like that's
literally the whole reason you go to the Adirondacks
sure there's nothing but trees and bears right
in the Adirondacks yeah that's that's why we
come here so I love it Yeah, great. Check her
out. Like I said, all of her videos are just
non -controversial. They're not risque. They're
just heartwarming and good content. And you know
what the sad part is? I guarantee there's trolls
that fuck with her because that's just what people
do. They take the nice things and they ruin them.
You know, I love her accent for obvious reasons,
it's beautiful. I've always loved the British
accent. I want to ask you something. It's such
a gift to be in America with somebody like that,
because we are just instantly enamored. When
we talk about social media, the greatest hooks,
you get somebody with an accent like that, you're
instantly like, what's happening? And it's just
the way they talk, where they grew up. You just
take them more serious. But when my first kid
was born, my daughter, I said to my wife, I said,
can we just talk to our daughter in a British
accent and see if she grows up? Now, my wife,
not being any fun, said no. But do you think
that would work? That'd be a great social experience.
But not to the other kid. I would just love to
see it would take a lot of how two parents could
commit to that bit and do it justice. You know
what I mean? Like, and then the other kid. Stop
rolling up and down the stairs. What happens
when your kid sees you at the store interacting
with the clerk? You know, like... Yeah, yeah,
that's true. That's what I'm saying. You gotta
play it up all... You gotta do it with the teachers.
It would be a very large... Oh, that's right.
The teachers. You'd have to get them in on it.
It'd be a large commitment. It'd be even better
if you get crazy. So the first kid you do British,
the other kid you do a Southern accent. You could
just like... Stop rolling up and down stairs!
It might be easier just to, like, move to England
and have a child. Yeah, I know, but I hate flying
over water. Yeah. Anyway, oh you feel better
in a boat At least then you don't crash into
the water. No, I don't know. I refuse to go on
a cruise Whatever. Oh my god you Matt if you
told me right now. Hey, buddy I'm gonna give
you a week off and I'm gonna pay for it for you
to go on a cruise with your wife My wife and
I would say go fuck yourself. I have no I Don't
want to be stuck in the middle of the ocean with
people that could potentially be annoying and
gross and drunk. And I just you can't get away.
And then if you've ever seen those things are
the size of a city. A really shitty city. No,
like the fanciest city you've ever been to. It's
all like high end fixtures. And well, you watch
that train wreck series on Netflix about the
cruises that'll help you. Lean towards my side
man. People were pooping in bags when they life
was better without documentaries I'm just gonna
put it out there. You know what I'll hop on that.
I'll agree with you there. They do ruin everything
Yeah, they're like, what do you like? Here's
a documentary on why it shit one person had a
shit in a bag on a cruise ship and suddenly the
whole industry is no good It was actually multiple
people but and it's not just that story. I just
I don't I don't have I don't want to be stuck
in the middle of the ocean because if something
goes wrong, you're there for a long time. But
they don't they don't go to like you don't take
a trip to Australia where you're literally like
hundreds of thousands of miles away from land
anywhere. You're going from like Florida to a
Caribbean island to what? Like there's there's
people that swim that distance. If the boat breaks
down, the coast guard comes and gets you. That
is days. Days. These people were dragging mattresses
out onto the deck because the rooms were so hot.
None of the air conditioning was working. It
was a disaster. You could just go swimming. You
can't. Or the sharks will eat you. There's a
pool on the deck. I'm out of here with this.
I refuse to go on a cruise. I love it. Wow. I'll
go on a Jet 2 holiday and save £50 per person.
Kevin Smith has a ViewSQ clerks -themed cruise
where they're going to be doing a lot of live
podcasts and things. I was going to get us all
tickets, but... I'm not going. I guess just Danny
and I are going. I'll just FaceTime me if you're
still... That's wild. I hate it. Dude, I've been
on a couple of cruises in my life, but when I
was younger, I went as a teenager with my parents.
I would love to go again, honestly, because...
It's like the greatest vacation ever, because
you can be super active if you want. If you want
a sightsee, you want to do all these different
things, you could do that. Or if you just want
to lay around and drink, also an option. When
I was drinking, that's what I would have done.
You know what I mean? But there's there's live
entertainment. There's nightclubs. There's bags
to poop in. There's an ocean to swallow you whole
to never be seen again. I just I can't. I'm sorry.
I'm yucking your yum. It's okay, it's okay. More
fun for me. You got anything else that you wanna
chat about? I got a couple things. Oh, well shit,
let's hear it. Well, so yesterday on the show
we talked about, well we talked about Garth Brooks,
we'll get to that in a second. But we were talking
about, what the hell was the other thing we were
talking about? It had to do with SNL, no. Yeah!
What were we talking about? I'm blanking out
now, hold for edit. Danny, what were we doing?
Actually, you know what? Hold on. Because you
just made me think of something. Since you mentioned
SNL, I got to ask you, bro. Yeah, yeah. Who is
the worst SNL cast member of all time? Oh, my
God. That's a loaded -ass question. Well, listen,
as you know... And here's the thing. One of the
reasons that I ask you is you're a fan. You're
not one of these folks who has always been training
to go, oh, SNL, so it was never fun. Those assholes...
I don't think up until the last two seasons.
I stopped watching because I became jaded. That's
a different story. But I don't think before then,
I don't think I missed an episode since like
1994. It was the worst. OK, well, so there's
there's a couple of factors, right? Because like
off the top of my head, Jay Moore, Gilbert Godfrey.
Chris Elliott, Robert Downey Jr., Jim Brewer.
Those are all names that get tossed around as
the worst. But all of those guys I just said
had pretty brilliant careers otherwise. Like
Chris Elliott's actually he was not good on the
show. He's hilarious. Yeah. Gilbert Gottfried
was one of a kind type comedian. You know, it's
kind of like Lars Ulrich. Not a great drummer,
but he's perfect for Metallica. It was backwards
for them. Not great on SNL, but they had brilliant
careers otherwise. I mean, look, a lot of people
will go with Jenny Slate because she's the one
that said the F -word and got canned after like
being on there for six months. But I gotta tell
you, off the top of my head, the one that comes
to mind for me has to be that Victoria Jackson.
Anytime she was in the 90s, she actually turned
into a nutbag. So that actually makes me feel
better about this decision. She never really
had a feature character. And if she did, I don't
remember it. So what does that tell you? But
she was just kind of there. What I vaguely. She
had a very high pitched voice, blonde hair. And
there's a reason why you vaguely have a memory
because she. Yeah. And the reason I'm choosing
her is a mousy voice. Yes. Yes. The reason I'm
choosing her is. You know, I'm not attacking
her personally. I don't know her but I just think
anything is a nut bag I need well she is now
she's like turned into a political weirdo, but
she She was just never she never had like a main
character She always had a bit her voice was
kind of annoying and then for the reason that
you just said which is wait What what did she
do? But there's a the last reason I chose her
was She was there for a while. You know what
I mean? Like it's easy to pick the people that
are there for one or two seasons as the worst,
right? Cause they were only on it. But when you
have someone who was like there and you're always
like, why are they there? So I'm, I'm with you
actually on that. I know exactly what you mean.
Cause some of those folks that you mentioned,
I hadn't even heard of, you know what I mean?
And, and I guess you could say, yes, the worst
person is one of these people that, that was
on in three sketches and they sucked and they
got cut or whatever. Yeah. But, but I'm with
you to me, uh, I'm thinking of the worst. The
ones folks know or or even the people that maybe
you'd say they're overrated. I sure probably
a fair to me I don't know. This might be a shocker.
I Find Chris Kattan to be you know what? I knew
you were Here's I just can't stand him Hey, he
should ain't funny. You know, I I was always
on the fence with him because I Just thought
outside of of a few sketches. I was just again
his voice annoyed me I didn't think he was that
funny when he you know when you get interviewed
But dude, when he did Mr. Peepers, the monkey,
and he would eat the apple and he would jump.
All right. And then he did this one character
where he was a coach that just didn't speak clearly.
So he would rev his team up and they couldn't
understand what he was saying. He'd be like,
so you go out there, you got it in a hot, you
got it in a tampon. And the people were like,
what? So it's like a bit they stole from the
water boy. Maybe. Sure. I don't know if it was
pre -Waterboy or not. So those two characters
for me, he got him off that list for me. But
I get it. I get it. It's a respectable answer.
I also think that cast was so amazing. They all
kind of lifted each other up. I agree with that.
I agree with that. Who's the best? Who was, in
your opinion, who was the best Saturday Night
Live cast? I'm going to go chalk here. I mean,
this is low hanging fruit. Will Ferrell, to me,
is just king. King. King. That's not one not
one thing he was ever in was not funny to me.
And again, this is subjective. There's probably
people out there. I'm sure that'll think he's
not funny for some. Yeah. You know what? I think
you're probably I think there's some folks that
are in the camp. They just can't stand Will Ferrell.
I am with you that I think to do is just just
the best king. But I will have to say that I
believe my all time favorite best SNL cast member,
one of the best comedians that ever lived was
Chris Farley. And to me, he's how do you argue
he's on the Mount Rushmore? I mean, of course,
he's on the Mount Rushmore list. He was a one
of a kind performer. But if you listen to the
way that former cast members still speak of him
this day, it was more than just who he was on
stage and on camera. I mean, it was who he was
off. Yes. He was always on, always on. Right.
Always funny and a tortured soul, like most comedians.
So I mean, Chris Farley is is He's probably the
goat, though. You know, just given what he brought
pop culture -wise and what he did for that show
and the way he did it, his style. But also the
mark he left behind his legacy, which is, you
know, you legacies, you know, like Phil Hartman
was amazing. And after he died, his legacy and
his legacy does still live on. But you say Chris
Farley to any generation, even the younger generations,
they're like, fuck, yeah, you know. So there's
something to be said about her. Remember Phil
Hartman, man? You remember Deep Thoughts with
Jack Andy that day? I love that you all those
old school. So you went to Ilion High School.
I went to Herkimer. Class of 2000 was my year
and they. They used to let you put in your favorite
quote. What's your quote? Yeah, I gotcha. Mine
was a Jack Handy quote. OK. And I'm going to
fuck it up because I wasn't ready for this, but
it was basically I don't think people should
be judged. No, I don't think dogs should be judged
by their size because I think Chihuahuas would
be very upset. That's what I chose. I'm not sure
there were better ones, but classic Mike. Yeah.
Yeah, so I'm sure if you people read that now
and they're like, what the fuck is he talking
about? But I loved Jack Handy There's actually
speaking of Garth Brooks and this is where I
was kind of gonna go I was gonna there was something
else, but then I wanted to tie in the Garth Brooks
and Garth Brooks was a musical act on Saturday
Night Live 17 women died We should look into
it. Yeah Actually, there is an SNL sketch that
you know, I haven't checked in a while and things
have with social media actually like he actually
Cultulated the entire cast party and that's they
would never heard from again. I know He's a killer
But there's an SNL skit that I can't find. If
anyone is watching or listening and can find
this and send it to us, I will forever, I'll
do something. I'll give you some sort of gift.
There was just this random throwaway sketch because
one thing I learned, I was on SNL actually a
couple times. And there's a process where skits
get cut and they kind of back, like the back
end of the episode is where like when they do
the test show before, when they do the dress
rehearsal, what doesn't do well enough goes at
the end. You've never seen the show. That's very
obvious. Right. You don't have to be on it to
know that. The D -list shit is on, you know,
five minutes before 1 a .m. But sometimes the
D -list shit, to me, is some of the hidden gems.
I'm with you. And there was a sketch, and when
I look it up, because I think Garth Brooks was
on a couple times, but there was this one sketch
where they're in a movie theater, and Jim Brewer's
in the sketch, I remember specifically. they
get trapped in this movie theater like they lock
the door so they can't leave and they have to
watch the movie and they start freaking out and
and the ladies like over the thing there's like
a like a Theme song that's like thank you for
coming to blah We hope you enjoy the movie the
doors are locked from the outside and they're
like no It's it I'm not giving it justice, but
I absolutely love it So if they're if anyone
could find the Garth Brooks SNL skit where they're
in the movie theater I will forever be indebted
to you. Yeah, it sounds great It sounds great
Yeah, I'm actually gonna do a video later I was
talking to Danny about the couple times I was
on SNL. Actually, oh wait, Danny, do you have
those handy? Okay, okay, so this is not a flex,
okay? I was on SNL. Not a flex, the fact that
he has them ready or anything. Well, because
I was gonna do a thing on SNL. This almost feels
organic. And then, yeah, very natural. No, the
reason I'm showing them is because I want you
to see how hilarious this is that when I say
I was on SNL. Yeah. I didn't do very much. The
first time I was on, I was just part of this
European TRL -type sketch with Lindsay Lohan,
and it's like a TRL -type show in Europe, and
I'm in the audience. And so you see me for like
3 .2 seconds. But the second time I was on, they
asked me to come back, they sent me over the
sides, the script, and I shit you not. My character's
name was Jersey Shore Douche, number three. Nice.
I didn't even get one. You weren't the first.
No. So here's my career. Oh, yeah. Let's I want
to see this. I mean, you got it. You got to really
pay attention. Oh, you're going to show this
one. OK. So this one, you can see me. It's ready
to go. Get ready. Here we go. I'm off to the
right. Right there. Oh, shit. Yeah. Yeah. Hold
on. Pause that as always. There's no bro. What
kind of. They did some serious makeup. They stepped
up your douchiness. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can't
see me there in the shadow. So we shot that at
a bar around the corner. It was a remote shoot,
so it wasn't... Pull back just a hair and see
if we can catch him in a better still. The first
time I was on, it was an actual live sketch I
was in the studio for. This was shot before the
episode, like on a Friday afternoon. And I actually,
one of my proudest moments... You look like that
dude in American Pie. OK. The super nerdy dude.
What is his name? Oh. The redheaded kid? No,
no. The dude that's always got like a... Sherman.
Shermanator. Yes. Yeah. You look just like him
in that. I'll take that as a compliment, because
I was Jersey Shore douche number three. Actually,
maybe I was four. How many are there? One, two,
three, four, five. I might have been Jersey Douche
five, to be honest with you. It was not the higher
number. But anyway, so we're walking. We're not
the superior. They gather us up. They said we're
going to go shoot it now. So we're walking over
and we all get in this elevator together. But
they have security with us because, you know,
there's famous cast members. Certainly not me.
And I remember Bobby Moynihan, he was sitting
there and he just goes, you know man, he goes,
three years ago I was watching the show on my
couch. And I was like, someday I really wish,
I pray that I'm on there. Not only did I not
think I would be. But I didn't think I'd be dressed
as fucking Snooki. And then he said, he goes,
I've done this before, man. He goes, wait till
you see what happens. He goes, last time I was
dressed as Snooki, we were walking. And he goes,
and all these construction workers were going,
hey, Snooki, hey, get over here. And I said something,
and I made Bobby Moynihan laugh his ass off,
like genuinely laugh. After that day when someone
was like, so how was it? I was like, well, it
was great But honestly the highlight was making
Bobby Moynihan laugh before we even shot anything
and the craziest part a little peek into the
the entertainment business I left that night
drove back to Ithaca and was bartending for a
bunch of snot -nosed college kids and getting
peach schnapps poured all over my hands this
like the day after I was just on SNL and that's
just a lesson in You know, it just... What happens
to a Jersey Shore douche. That's what happens
to a Jersey Shore douche. So, but anyway, yeah,
we don't have time, but I got stories about the
first time I was on because I hung out for two
days. Oh, is Danny gonna pull it up? What is
that? This is the first time I was on with Lindsay
Lohan. Behind the music? Oh, you can't skip it.
Yeah, so it was a sketch where it was like a
European TRL and Lindsay Lohan was the guest.
So at the end, you'll see... Like it pans and
you just see me in the background with a mohawk
kind of clapping nice But Instagram doesn't let
you just solid extra solid extra, but what was
crazy about that night was Before I went on so
you rehearse the episode on Friday a couple times
And then you're released for the day and then
Saturday you come back and during the day you
run it again And then you just hang out till
11 o 'clock at night. Yeah, but what people don't
realize is they They cut the sketches. So at
like 10 o 'clock they post what skits made it
in because you do an eight o 'clock show for,
you know, they sell tickets to that and that's
a dress rehearsal. So any sketch that anyone
wrote is performed and whatever the audience
doesn't laugh at or, you know, Lauren and the
producers don't like at 10 o 'clock they cut
and then for the live show you're going to get
the best of the best. To me, this skit that I
was in kind of sucked. So I'm waiting around
thinking, oh, God, 10 o 'clock comes. You know,
we got we got some laughs during the dress rehearsal,
but I'm like, this is my one chance. You know,
this is my chance. I'm finally on SNL. I've always
dreamed of being on SNL. And we made it. And
I remember thinking, I don't know how this is
happening, but we're on. And I just remember
the other extras were like, who cares, dude?
We still get paid 250 bucks. And I'm thinking,
I don't give a shit about the money. My dream
my whole life was to be a cast member on SNL.
And now I'm on GNY, baby. So I made the cut,
but I didn't do very much. Didn't do very much.
But I was there. Oh, here it comes. OK. Here
we go. You got to really pay attention. When
you see the bunny come on the screen, the bunny,
he knows right. Oh, yeah. The frame, the bunny.
And then top left ish. You'll see me with a mohawk.
Chris Parnell, there's an underrated cast member.
Oh, all of this excitement is giving me the blue.
We got the blues. OK, so top right, you see the
crowd. I'll have a mohawk. I'm coming. Can't
believe I didn't win the award And there's the
bunny the bunny and here's the funny there I
am right in the back clapping Wow you blinked
by the way side note Maya Rudolph famous Maya
Rudolph and Fred Armisen were not only so nice.
They were hilarious. That's awesome during the
The what do you call it the rehearsal? We're
all just kind of sitting in between before we
run it again. And in character, he wouldn't break
it the whole time. Fred Armisen just kept going,
hey, how you doing? I just flew in from Albany
and boy are my arms tired. What do you think
about that? And he would hold mics up to us and
we're like answering and trying to be fun, you
know. And he walks away and Maya Rudolph's like,
sorry, he's trying out a new character that we're
writing a sketch for. And I was like, I was just
part of his like. Process trying yeah part of
his problem. It was quite I've got a lot of stories
from that, but I'm not gonna talk about it Because
we'd need a three -hour show, but yeah SNL Man,
I love it cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah Really quick
before we go Breaking news before we came on
the air. I want to see what you think of this
because you're you're smart. I'm not Washington
Post said that Nassau found some sort of rocks
on Mars. I'm sorry who did NASA NASA who am I
saying it wrong NASA? There you go. What'd I
say said NASA NASA NASA? Cal the same I saw Kid
Rock. I was like wait what? NASA came out with
they found these rocks and I'm paraphrasing obviously
they found these rocks on Mars that are visible
to the naked eye that proves chemically or minerally
that there was Martian life a long time ago on
that Some sort of life like like Marvin the Martian
proof of life on Mars is basically it. Oh I gotta
read the article, but I just what it's but I
think we talking like hold on cuz like Scientists
run fast and loose with this shit, right? You
know, I mean proof of life is like some cells
running around and when when When we hear that
and we say that we think like little green men
Yeah, well, of course. That's what, you know,
Hollywood made us. That's not... Like, is there
proof there's a... is there, like, a dog at Rome?
You know, like, there's something tangible that
I don't need a microscope. You were walking in
and you were like, all right, I'm ready to go.
And I was like, I put it down. So I didn't read
it thoroughly. Apparently, because of the minerals
and the chemicals surrounding these rocks that
they could only be produced if there was life
forms. I got you. Whatever. Either way, my whole
point of this... is the fact that proof of life
on Mars is such a fucking tiny story compared
to what we read every goddamn day is alarming.
It's like, oh, there's proof of life on Mars,
but hey, check this out. That's awful. And that's
changing. Do you ever watch that movie Don't
Look Up? No, but I keep hearing that it's really
good. That was that Netflix release. I'll leave
you on that. Yeah. Leonardo DiCaprio. Yeah, yeah,
yeah. He doesn't marry a 12 year old in it, so
that's a positive. That's always good. Yeah.
Actually, just seriously, everyone should watch
this. Do you think, do you believe in aliens?
Believe in? Like do you think there's other life
forms other than us? Yeah, of course. Right?
Of course. It just seems, do I have proof? Absolutely
not. But nobody does, except for these NASA scientists.
But here's the thing, the galaxies... Space,
in general, is so large, it's almost arrogant
to think, like... 100%. Ugh! There ain't nobody
else out there. You are correct. It's just us.
Okay. I'm not saying there's the big green alien
heads that you win at the county fair. I'm just
saying... Bro, the government has come close
to, like, straight -up admitting it recently.
And again, you talk about people not paying attention.
It got swept under the rug. Like, that was one
of their, like, hey, let's distract them from
other things and tell them aliens are real, and
nobody even blinked. Nope. This is the world
we're living in. Seriously, it's wild. That's
why we do good news. We don't cover all the other
news that everybody else is talking about, which
is horrific. It is horrific. Remember when those
idiots stormed Area 51? There's a documentary
about that, too, by the way. I feel like we're
a little bit like the orchestra that played as
the Titanic went down. That's what it feels like.
