Some like it hot, some like it cold. I like it stinky and covered in mold. Welcome to Comedy Bang Bang. Thank you to Pugsley's Chicken for that catchphrase submission. I don't know if that one's gonna be the one. I don't know. Some like it hot, some like it cold. I like it stinky and covered in mold. I don't know. That could be the thing we say every single episode.

That's hot. Yeah, it's not bad, right? If you heard that every single week, would you be annoyed by it after week one, maybe? I would be turned on. You would be, really. I want to segue into a What Turns You On podcast, by the way. We're going to get very deep into it. Thank you to Pugsley's Chicken. I'm sorry, that one's not going to stick. But welcome to Comedy Bang Bang for another week. My name is Scott Aukerman. We have an exceptional lineup for the show today. Coming up a little later, we have a Peloton instructor.

And we also have America's favorite rabbit. America. I wonder if that's just the lower 48th.

Because I would imagine in Hawaii or Alaska, they might have different tastes on rabbits. Who's your favorite rabbit, if you don't mind me asking? And I'll introduce you in a second. My favorite rabbit? No one's asked me that before. Ever? No one's asked me that before. No, no, no. That's never come up in conversation. I've been asked about my favorite fowl, but never my favorite rabbit. Okay, two-part question. What's your favorite rabbit and what's your favorite fowl? Oh.

Oh, I hate fowl. I don't have a favorite. My family, we...

We are foul killers. Are you really? You come from a long line of foul killers. Deep family grudge. We are kind of like the vampire killers of the South, except it's foul. Is this like the Hatfield and the McCoys? A foul did something to your family back then? It's a whole thing. Frederick Douglass, the White House, even Lincoln, foul. This goes all the way to the

Ruined talks between our people. The secret society have been assigned, trained as a kid, killed fowls from here to Argentina. How many have you killed in your entire life? 3,086. 3,086. And I remember every face, every single face. So if you killed one a day, that's plus vitamins. That's probably about 10 years of killing fowls. But I just stopped. I just stopped because-

Because between my busy schedule, my shooting schedule. So your busy schedule and your shooting schedule are two different things. Two different things. Two different things. So you're very busy when you're not shooting television. Oh, yeah. I'm always tired.

Are you really? I'm always tired. You've, by the way, for the listener, this is a podcast, you can't see what's happening. Our guest has been yawning in between every word, which is tough to do. So shout out to your editors that the fact that they've been able to assemble because really it sounds like that. So we just gave everyone a little taste of what it actually sounds like behind the curtain. Yeah.

Well, this is an incredible story. I don't think anyone's ever gotten this out of you for any interview. It's because I'm so tired. I let the truth slip. I understand. So I'll get you more early. This may be the earliest we've ever done a show, by the way.

Wow. Yeah. Cause I was wondering when, when I was asked to do it and the time came across, he said, wow, this guy's going to do it at nine o'clock. That that's really sweet. I believe a nine o'clock was a request from your team. Because well, well, well, yes. And now I realize, so I thank you so much because I thought, oh, they're doing it at nine. But, but I realized that you're doing it for me because when I leave here, when I'm not killing foul, uh,

And also rabbits, but I'll go into that later. Oh, okay. We'll hear about that. On Mondays, as of right now, I'm an adjunct professor at USC. So I'm a lecturer there. Because I just need something else during the week to do. I just need one more thing to make me tired. What is your field? And I'll introduce you in a second. What is your field of study?

that you're lecturing on, if you don't mind me asking. The class is called Improvisation for Camera. But what I really do in the class is, well, I teach

killing the foul. Oh, so this is a secret kind of thing. It's like Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But besides that, yeah, it's acting for, it's improvisation for a camera and also I teach straight acting in it but also using improvisation as an audition tool, using it to free themselves up to

Pre-audition, not to get boring actor-y stuff, but to give pre-life to scenes, teaching them that when you get a script, that there's got to be something before. Even though this is a written script that came out of somebody else's mind, your job as the actor, if you're using play, fun, just play, come up with something. Don't just start at that point.

Because it's not as rich as if you're able to, oh, I'll make up that this thing happened, get into the script. And then what I also hate seeing from tapes from other actors is when the script is over, you just go, and then Jeremy left.

And they go, okay, I'm just a shit. Shit is finished. And they click over and they turn off the camera. They're done like no play. So I teach them to do all that on camera. And how often are you watching tapes from other actors? Uh, actually more, more than not, because I also produced a shows. So I'm seeing people do tapes.

do things and half the time like, oh, don't do that. That's going to lose you the job. I like you're getting in there early with America, America's bright stars of tomorrow.

Yeah, because if one of them hits it, I want to be able to call in a favor. It's like, hey, man, remember me as I'm at their red carpet and I've got a 40 in a brown paper bag because I've fallen off. And hey, man, it's me. Can I get in that movie? And then they have to ignore me or they go, hey, it's so good to see you. And they pat my hand and walk on.

I think that's what would probably happen, especially with the 40 in your hand. Oh, yeah. Oh, that's going to happen. That's kind of the dream, though. You know what I mean? If you could get rid of everything in your life and just have a 40 in your hand in a paper bag. Burn bright, drink brown.

That's your new slogan. Yes. I mean, we hit upon Comedy Bang Bang, We Care last week. Okay. But Burn Bright, Drink Brown. I think that might- Comedy Bang Bang, Burn Bright, Drink Brown. And it's got to be a Disney- Brown.

At the very, very end. Yeah, a tiny key change down one half step. Yep. You know, I also was at USC talking to the children, probably the same kids, about a month ago or so, I believe. Were you there for their... Sketch Fest or whatever they call it? Yes. Frakis. Is that what it was called? Frakis? Frakis? Frakis? Yeah, Frakis. How do you pronounce that word? Oh, there was a hullabaloo and a frakis.

Fracus sounds... Fracus sounds wrong. Yeah, it doesn't sound wrong. Fracus. I think it's fracus. Fracus. I think the way you said it originally. It's got to be a broad. It's got to be a broad. Fracus. Yeah, fracus. Oh, there's a huge fracus. Yeah, there was a bunch of mishegas and some fracus ensued. Yeah. But that's one thing we have in common. We have a lot in common. Let's see. You played Billy Flynn in Chicago. So did I. You were on Broadway. I was in high school.

Hey, you know what? This is what I tell people like in my class. Here's the big secret. For those of you theater kids that you do improvisation and sketch and you did, Broadway is like high school. It's a lot like it. Broadway is exactly like doing your junior or senior class play live.

Except it's Broadway, which then is just like doing, for those of you that have done theme park shows, that you do five shows a day, which is just like doing a cruise ship show. The only difference is scope and scale and professionalism. Maybe a budget. And budget. But it's the same muscle. Sometimes, I shit you not, I'll be on stage.

And this sounds like I'm not a very present actor, but I'm very, very present. Well, you do so many of these shows. You got to think about something. But every Blue Moon, I'll marvel at how cool it is that I'm doing this thing. And then I go, this is just like when I did Oklahoma in my junior year of high school. Would you play in Oklahoma? Because I was in Oklahoma too. Shut up. Yeah. We have very similar careers. Okay, on the count of three, let's say who we were. Ready? One, two, three. Judd. Oh.

Oh, you and I were at odds. Oh, poor Judd is dead. Well, yeah. Yeah. I got a permanent ear damage from the gun that Judd or I fired. I can't remember that scene anymore. So long ago. I think, you know, when Curly goes into Judd's shack, I guess. Yes. Right after the song, right? Yeah. Because it's been forever since I've even seen the movie. And then one of them shoots a gun in a, in,

makes a hole in the wall or something. It's got to be Judd because I don't think that Curly would shoot the gun because I don't remember. I think they, maybe they both do or something. And then I seem to remember that when I would shoot, like there was a little thing that they would pop out of the wall. Like I shot a hole in the wall. Your school had money.

This was professional theater, actually. Oh, excuse me. Oh, I didn't stop at high school. I went on for four more years and then quit. Quit early so that you don't end up with the 40 in your hand. Exactly. Burn bright. No brown. We have a lot in common. He was in Hamilton. I watched a production of it, not the one he was in.

You know our guest. I'm going to introduce him now. Let us Terry know further. He first burst onto our screens in Whose Line Is It Anyway? How many seasons of that did you do? Well, we still... You're still doing it. Because it's on CW, it went from ABC for years to a reboot on the CW. And I want to say...

God, I guess we've been doing that for seven, eight years now. This may be the final season. I'm not sure. The CW cuts show up. Is this an announcement? An exclusive announcement? Is this the final season? Oh, no. They've already talked.

Talked about it. So, you know, I don't know. I try to keep up with those things. But I think it's 20 something seasons if you put them all together. Yeah. Of just, you know. How many years? Because it's since the 90s, right? Is that when it started? I think we went on the air in 99 and then it was 10 consecutive seasons. Right.

And then it was on ABC Family for a few years, just running and running and running. And then we started the CW version because, you know, for network TV, it's cheap programming. Yeah. And it's funny as hell. So they get a bargain. So, yeah. Really? Thank God. The only costs are the 20 million episode, I assume, that you got, right? Oh, yeah. Yeah. That's how much they pay me to improvise. Yeah. 20 million 40s. Right. 20 million 40s in my dressing room in a pyramid. Yeah.

That's a tough pyramid to build. It's got to be a pyramid. So shout out to Gustav, the PA, that has to do that. But we then have seen him in so many things. A five-time Emmy Award winner, I believe. Yeah. Well, you know what? That's on Wikipedia. It's really six. But I don't fight it. Because it's...

because my talk show also won when your show wins, you as a producer win. So that, yeah, so it's really six, but I take five because that's also as a performer. So I take that and a bunch of nominations from the daytime thing, which is fun. When you go to the daytime Emmys, is it in the daytime? Is it at like 9 a.m. and everyone's in a tux and getting wasted? Which would be weird, right?

That actually would be fun. That's my experience with the Emmy. No, it's late. It's early evening. It's early evening. So they don't give you the evening one to make it seem like. Late afternoon, early evening because, well, this is when it was telecast because it's gone through so many. At first, it was a big deal, the daytime Emmys, and then they cut budget, and then it wasn't, and then it was basically you could stream it.

Um, and then it was right. If you want it, no one's making you know, no, right. Yeah. Nobody watch. And so it's a thing now again. So it all depends on when they would do it because if it was going to go live, then, then we do it at five.

Live at 5. That's how you can remember this. And that's another thing that you could do as your motto. Live at 5. Live at 5. Burn bright, drink brown, live at 5. We should do a live episode at 5 p.m. every day. Or 5 a.m.

I like this early morning thing. I want to go earlier. If you do it at 5 a.m., I'll come back. Yes, because you have nothing going on the rest of the time. Nothing going on. Let's get to the end of your introduction. You know him as the host of Let's Make a Deal. Just a legend in this business. He now has a podcast called What If...

that's out now, quite a few episodes out right now. Please welcome Wayne Brady. Thank you so much. Welcome to the one-timers club, the exclusive one-timers club. It feels good. This jacket that you gave me feels really good. Yeah.

It's, yeah, it's velvet. It's kind of like the master's jacket in a way. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I never wear the master's jacket. We call it the... Yes, the primary. The primary jacket. We no longer call it that. It's the primary jacket. Do they... They got to change the name of that, don't they? That's like the last thing being called a master's. That's one of the things, but I don't see it changing.

that's one of those clubs that they're not going to get off of that yeah i guess it is a different usage of the word master than because they have a mastery of golf i guess right which there are some things that i would fight for that though those of you that are interested in in the entomology of words yes i do believe that master bedroom should have been changed because they call it that specifically for that changing the master's

tournament don't change it because it does mean mastery of something yes exactly maybe they should just change it to the mastery tournament and then it would clear everything up then it sounds like witchcraft that's a good point although agatha all along was very big on disney plus i really enjoyed that yes so did i you got uh patty lapone who know patty lapone she broadway diva legend extraordinaire never worked with patty lapone long time fan long time lover except i do have

I hate when people say, I love this person, and then they go, but. So I'll just say, I love Patti LuPone, period. New thought. It is interesting to me, though, when recently she had that thing of when she, I don't know if you saw her theater show.

It's close to the theater where Alicia Keys' musical Hell's Kitchen. Hell's Kitchen. Great show. Won all these Tony Awards. Beat my show, The Wiz, for our Grammy. But that's okay, because if you're going to lose, lose to Alicia Keys. Sure. She took umbrage, offense, at the fact that Hell's Kitchen's theater was loud.

It's hip hop. It's R&B. It's big and boisterous. And she at her other theater, she got angry. And that's one of the first times I went, wow, that is some mature white lady privilege that you are going to tell a whole theater to turn your music down. Wow, this really is the great white way. That is interesting. I was the guy she yelled at in the crowd. Shut up.

Yeah, that was me. That actually would make me happy if it really was you singing. I was so embarrassed. Hey, Patty! Patty! Patty! What's up, baby? Patty! I know you see me. Patty, Patty! I did go see her and Mandy Patinkin's two-person show on...

On New Year's Eve, the matinee. Wow. Several years ago, my wife and I went, and it was so many old people who were falling asleep, and the sound of candy wrappers being opened was so loud. And she couldn't get mad at that? I think she was trying to tune all of that out, so she sang Don't Cry For Me Argentina directly at us and looked us in the eye the entire time because we were the only young people paying attention.

It was thrilling. Which I do say, I'd say once again, as a diehard theater kid, I love Patty LuPone and I love Mandy Patinkin. I got a chance to work with him for...

for season on this thing on CBS, The Good Fight. You don't say. That's a picture of him right up there. Yeah, so I give props to Broadway royalty. With me right in the background. You can see half of my body. Were you in a show with him? He was in a movie that I wrote and was in. Wait a second, what is that? It's the Mr. Show movie. Wayne's going to walk across the room and take a...

Take a look at it. I'm the police officer and he is playing the Ronnie Dobbs in the Ronnie Dobbs musical. That is hilarious. The fact that you have Mandy Patankin shirtless. We didn't ask him to be. He offered. He showed up like that. I woke up like this. Are you going to wardrobe, Mr. Patankin? No, this is me. This is it. This is it. Uh,

I love that you are such a theater fan. You still do it all the time, which is great. And who better to do theater than, you know? I mean, if you're not doing theater, who should? Well, because it's not even, see, like I'm not even a fan and it's a luxury that, it's what I do. It's a passion. No, no, it's my job. It's like we show up on set to do it.

that's the other part of my job. I, I do the let's make a deal thing or I shoot a sitcom or something, but then I go to do Broadway. Cause that's what I love. That's it's because I have to make that distinction sometime because there are people that they dibble. Oh, I do some theater when I'm not doing my soap opera. Well, good for you. But this is like, that's my job. Like that, that, that's my dream. What's a, what's a dream role that you've never gotten to do that you would love to do?

Oh, that's a great question. Thank you so much. I've been working on my questions. Your questions are amazing. I've been doing this for 16 years. I just got good like three weeks ago. You know what? Good for you for not giving up and showing up with a 40 in your hand. I know. Good for you for not burning out. Good for you. Burning bright and drinking brown. Come on, man. We care. I'm getting that t-shirt. A dream role just off the top of my head. I would have loved to have done...

Well, as my daughter likes to point out when she listens to the soundtrack of Hairspray, she goes, Dad, you would have been so great at Seaweed, but you're too old now. I go, oh, thanks for letting me know about the passage of time. Well, I think, I mean, I saw To Kill a Mockingbird on Broadway that Aaron Sorkin won, and it had like 50-year-olds playing the little kids, you know? Like, you could still do it. It's the magic of theater. It's the magic of theater, but not the magic of my knees. I'm not doing those splits now with Seaweed.

So that's just one. And I would have loved to have played... Oh, if there's ever a... I would love to play Applegate in Damn Yankees. Oh, that's a great show. I saw Jerry Lewis in that show. You saw Jerry Lewis? Twice. What was it like? Because I had a couple friends in the cast. I was thrilled because...

Big fan of, you know, Dean Martin, Jerry Lewis and all that. And he just kind of stopped the show. Real talent. Stopped the show in the middle of it and did bits for a long time that were sort of... Non-related. Yeah, non-related to the thing. I thought it was very funny.

And then Patton Oswalt as a gift to a bunch of us who did a show with him, a stage reading of The Day the Clown Cried. He bought us all tickets to see it again. And then everyone just made fun of it the entire time. And I felt kind of embarrassed because I liked it. Don't ever be embarrassed for liking...

weird theater. Can you go back into the past in the 90s and give me a pep talk about that? Yeah, I want to just hug you. Thank you. But I need to introduce myself before time-traveling Wayne because it's odd if this brother just appears out of nowhere and starts hugging you in the middle of a theater with Jerry Lewis on stage. It was 96. I don't know if I would have been aware of you yet. Right, like I just would have been a complete stranger to you. Hey, what?

What are you doing? And then on stage, yeah, and then I disappear again. All those things that once would have just been weird. And maybe I would have thrown you off the rest of your career path. That's a good point. Yeah, I would have been constantly like, time travel exists, I think. And then suddenly I would have, in 99, I would have seen you in Whose Line Is It Anyway? But maybe we would have crossed paths because I feel like we would have crossed paths earlier because before Whose Line,

I did this thing called QuickWits on NBC with a bunch of folks that I know that we all have in common. I feel like I met the person you work with, Jonathan, a lot. Jonathan, yeah. We've been together since then. I feel like I met him in the 90s and haven't seen him since. Yeah, I know that we've crossed paths. And then before then, my group, The House Full of Honkeys...

We used to do a show down on, uh, what's the comedy theater that isn't there anymore on. I owe or. On the promenade or like close to. Oh, oh, oh yeah. The, uh, the, yeah, I did a lot of shows there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Second city and UCB. That was called the up. No, no, it was, it was, I think it was a U word. It was close to the water. Yeah. And.

And a lot of us used to intermingle in that late 90s comedy mishmash. That's where Mr. Show did all of their live shows to get their show. Exactly. I did a bunch of sketch shows there. So we really are very close. I feel like we're too... We have a lot in common other than the success part. Yeah, like it's quantum entanglement. It's very close. You're who I would have been had I made a lot of different choices. Yeah.

But I have that picture of me and Mandy Patinkin. I'll always have that. Oh, my God. My head hurts. Let's talk about your podcast because I've listened to this. It's a big treat. At first, I was like, oh, okay, we have...

A celebrity podcast. It's probably an interview show. I looked at the guest lineup. You have great guests like Nicole Byer. Yes. Bobby Moynihan, Colton Dunn. A lot of people who have been on this show. And and I was like, oh, is this an interview show? But it's actually a little bit different.

It is a little bit of an interview show. I came up with this thing for my class, which I'm not claiming it's genius, but for me, it helps to make things make sense just in life. Improvisation is a conversation. And sometimes I would have to say that to myself when I'm even talking with people in real life because of the way that sometimes my mind works when people are talking and you're having this long conversation and I've already...

gone to the end of the conversation and like, I'm done with this. I go, no, no, no, no, no. No, you can't be finished with it. Actually listen to the rest of the conversation so you can be involved in it. So I go, okay, I'm making up conversation. I have to follow the same rules that I follow on stage with this person in real life. And then that will help me in relationships and blah, blah, blah. So we thought, okay, let's have conversations with people. And out of that conversation, just, just like we're doing stuff will come. So as

As long as, and I have people that I'm fans of. So I get a chance to go, oh, hey, I know this about you and I know that about you. So what about blah, blah, blah, blah. And then we get into the, well, I know that you went to Chicago for such and such and you were blah, blah, blah. What if you didn't? What else would you have done? Well, maybe I would have been a blah, blah. Great.

And then immediately, Jonathan and I cut to that scene or how this thing would have happened or how would your life have changed. Or maybe it's just a weird thing that happened to them this morning. So we take the conversation piece of a talk show and we blow it out

Into the performance piece so fans of this show I think would be very interested in this because it's you're doing improv scenes based on Suggestions essentially this is right from being a conversation that you're having with the guest right and then the guest participates do they always participate or a lot of time they do because Colton and Colton Oh my god, they obviously have done improv for a long time Colton. We we had one of the most one of my best

Times that I've had a hunt the podcast so far was Colton's song that just came out of nowhere because we're talking about his name and then all of a sudden Branson I were the penis started playing and we did this this this thug thug Rap song about Colton and he's like Colton from the streets this name because I'm a bad mother hugger I be hugging them a hugging motherfucker because I'm hugging and we just keep and and

That's that's what it is. That's what and like just like we're doing the sense of play that comes out of this conversation that all of a sudden it's a song. Yeah, it's just so silly, but it's playful and it's fun. But then you get to hear people operating at the top of their abilities. That's the fun for me. I just love seeing people do their thing. It's a very fun podcast because

You know, it starts as just kind of background information or I listen to the Bobby Moynihan one. You're talking about the SNL 50th. And then it just segues, your pianist starts playing and then it segues into scenes based on everything you've been talking about. It's really a lot of fun. Oh, thanks, man. I was laughing my little butt off. Oh, thank you. I have no butt anymore. Thanks to you. You're welcome. Yep. Butts get you in trouble, so it's just best to not have it. Wouldn't it be great if human beings just didn't have butts?

We're working on that. Yeah. Oh, good. Really? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. You have a grant, some sort of fellowship? I just got a grant and myself and the other scientists. That's what you're really doing, USC. That's my passion. That's my passion. To eradicate butts. Because if we get rid of the butts, then A, we wouldn't have to... Do you know how much time we waste using the bathroom from the back? I know. I know.

That's the thing. So much time. We need to have all of our excrement through the front. What would you suggest? The mouth or the... Well, I'm just keeping it to one hole. That if we're able to eliminate the butt and that area, and we just peed. Yeah. And we just peed. We pee out of it and it's fine, isn't it? We should be able to squirt some poop out of there. Thank you.

I've been saying this for years, but other scientists laughed at me. I won't laugh at you. Thank you. I'll laugh near you. Okay, see? Next to you. Thank you. Around you. And I love that. With you. And that's the best. That's the best. So look out 2027. No buts. I guarantee you my nanotechnology will be approved at that point. You mentioned theme park, working in theme parks. You had a very fun role in...

in theme parks back before you moved to Los Angeles. Even when I was here in Los Angeles. You did it here at... So many theme parks I've done. Yeah, and you were a mischievous character known as Beetlejuice. No, I wasn't Beetlejuice. You weren't Beetlejuice? No, no, no. You were in the Beetlejuice show. I was in the Beetlejuice... This is for you old school theme park fans. I was in the Beetlejuice Rock and Roll Graveyard Review. Oh, yeah.

here at Universal Studios Los Angeles and also in Orlando. I played in the Orlando cast, I was Dracula. And in the LA cast, I was Dracula and Wolfman. And for those of you that go, Wayne, you're high, let me explain what the show was. It's actually a great concept. And you know, they're opening up this new park

In Orlando right now, Universal is, which I hope they have the show, it's dedicated just to all of the monsters and stuff. Oh, really? I would have loved that when I was a kid. That dark universe that they were trying to do that didn't make it. With Russell Crowe as Dr. Hyde. Didn't work, but it's a theme park and I hear it's amazing. So here is the concept for the show. Beetlejuice.

He pops up from his, well, from wherever Beetlejuice pops up. He's like, you hear the sound effects. He pops on stage. Hey, everybody, it's me, Beetlejuice. I'm the ghost with the most goosebump cool. And he's talking to the audience. He's like, all right, you know what I got back there? I got the wolf man. I got the bride of Frankenstein. I got Dracula. And he's making all these bad puns. He's like, all right, so I'm going to bring him out. He introduces us, and we come out in the...

in the classic form of the monsters to the Bela Lugosi, you know, Phantom of the Opera with the mask and with the organ. And we all come attacking Beetlejuice. He goes, all right, this ain't cool. We have to fix this. On the count of three, say it with me. Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice. He knocks us back into this thing called the transmogrifier. Okay.

Then when it goes, this curtain of dry ice and lights and the spectacle, you hear sound effects. When it stops, what? All of a sudden, Dracula goes from his gothic cape into this leather wearing rock and roller. S&M. Well, there is one cast that, yeah, but it's more, think of it.

Think, uh, glam metal. Sebastian Bach ish. Yes. So there's that. Then the Phantom of the opera becomes like a Jerry Lee Lewis type guy with this, uh, lounge lizard with this purple suit on and this purple mask, uh,

Wolfman is transformed into a B-boy with this bright, colorful top with the fur sticking out and jeans and Adidas. And then he breakdances later. The Bride of Frankenstein is this incredibly hot rock chick.

with tattered dress and... Like a goth emo look? Kind of goth, but very much like the... Evanescence, perhaps. Ooh, that's a good reference. No, but like 70s or 80s rock with tight... Pat Benatar kind of? Thank you. Yes, yes. And then I'm leaving someone out, but they basically get transformed. So that's what I did. And when I moved out here to Los Angeles...

I needed a gig. So when I got out here, I was working at Universal Studios doing that show. I was swinging both parts, five shows a day. But here is the thing, doing that show, especially at that time, 90 something, it was an equity show at the theme park. So I made...

Great money doing that show. Equity is the actor's union, by the way, for those of you who don't know. Great show, great pay, and it was one of the best theme park shows because you really were singing and dancing your ass off. And a lot of my cast members are all on Broadway now because that was the gig that you would do if you were a singer-dancer. Doing the same show on Broadway? Wouldn't that be great? Yeah.

Beetlejuice Rock. And is that Patti LuPone as the Bride of Frankenstein? As the hot 80s Pat Benatar? Mandy Patankin as Frankenstein, the green-clad rocker who plays the guitar? Is that him? I love you still know so much about that. I mean, how many performances of it did you do? Probably thousands? I did a few years worth. Tens of thousands. And I loved it. I loved doing that show. Yeah. Because I was on stage. Yeah. Because I was on stage. Not everyone, if you're out here...

trying to make it, which is what I try to tell these young, young actors, especially some that I talk to talk to now, you know, they, they end up seeing the end result. They love, well, I'm going to be on TV or I'm going to be on. It's like, look, man, good for you. If that happens and your Tik TOK video gets you a deal, which is very possible because that's how folks are hired now. But I think I can speak to, we came up in the, in the day when we,

I, myself and my group, the House Full of Honkies, when we moved from Orlando out here, we would do shows. Sometimes there were seven of us in the group where there would be just as many people in the audience and you do it and you love it because you're actually being funny and you're in front of a crowd. And it's actually more fun than being in TV a lot of times. It's doing those shows.

Yeah. That's the stuff that, like, you have the dream of, oh, I'm going to make it and do movies and stuff. And then you get to do movies and they're kind of a pain in the ass. And you have to be there all day and it's stop and starts. But, like, doing the actual shows to get the TV stuff is the most fun stuff. Now, don't get me wrong. I absolutely love TV and film. It's great. But that goes back to in the beginning when I was saying that high school theater and being on Broadway, the theater.

There's no difference in terms of it's the scale and scope, but I had so much fun doing those seven-person shows. I had fun doing Beetlejuice when nobody knows your name and you get to dress up and be silly. It's all play. Everything that we do right now, it's all play, and you should do that. That's why I wanted to do the What If Podcast.

Because I actually get to play and say silly shit and have fun. It's super fun. Is it open-ended? Are you doing this just till whenever? Or is it a season? Or what are your plans with it? I just want to do it. Yeah. So I believe it's open-ended, just in the sense of we just want to do it until A, it's

I want it to be successful, but I just want to have fun. So I'm going to do it as long as it's fun. Love it.

I love the people who get into podcasting because they want to have fun because that's the only reason I think to do it. Like the people who get into it of like, oh, my agent said that it's a big opportunity now. Yeah. Maybe the smart list guys. And that's about it. Right. It's one of those things. Yes. Maybe you can blow it up into something else, but you should never get into anything. That's not the end result. Do stuff for fun.

And then maybe something will come out of it. Every time in my experience, every time that I've done something because I've been told, hey, you know, this is great for your career. You do this thing, blah, blah, blah. Okay. It is the most miserable thing I've ever done in my life. And I want to yank my own head off and go bowling with it. So I'm trying to not do that anymore. Yes, exactly. I love that. Well, Wayne Brady, the podcast is What If...

With Jonathan Menken. I have to say that it's called Wayne Brady's What If with Jonathan Menken. You've known him for 30 some odd years, right? Yeah. We first started doing improv together in Orlando. Shout out to SAC Theater. I didn't know it was all the way back from Orlando too. Wow. Yeah. SAC Theater and the seven of us that started that theater, which is still in Orlando right now. It's still thriving. We came out here and we became the House Full of Honkeys. And Jonathan and I have worked together since...

We were 19 and 20. He's your co-host on Let's Make a Deal. A really funny guy. It's a great podcast. Go check it out. We're going to take a break and then we're going to come back. We have a great show. A Peloton instructor. I can't wait. I mean, this is a huge lineup. She's so tall. A Peloton instructor. And then America's favorite rabbit.

Oh, that I, okay. Yeah. I know this is going to be hard for you. Yeah. You're all, you pulled out your gap and you're polishing it right now. And I'm cleaning it right now. All right, Bessie. All right, Bessie. Oh, you named her. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Guns are always female. I find that cute. Oh, it's so sweet. I might just kissed her. Oh, that's so, yeah. Be careful with that. Oh.

You did kind of a tongue kiss, too. Don't judge me. No judgment. You got to be careful. All right, we're going to take a break. We're going to be right back with more Wayne Brady, more Comedy Bang Bang. We'll be right back after this.

Comedy Bang Bang, we're back. Wayne Brady is here in the exclusive one-timers club. This is a huge club to be in. I know, this is pretty cool. So when I come back though, is the club...

Less exclusive? Well, it's worse because if you come back and do more than one episode, the people who have done one episode are your Paul Rudds, your Ben Stillers, Childish Gambino. They all did one and then got way too successful and never came back. But if you come back and do two, then it gets worse and worse. Then suddenly you're like Adam Scott, who's done like 25 of them. That guy, oh, he's definitely carrying a 40. Yeah.

40 inches. What? If you know what I'm saying. And I think I do. We all know that he is the rep of having one of the biggest dicks in Hollywood, right? But that's cumbersome. 40 inches? How do you even... I don't even know how you would become aroused. Now, famously, he showed his real penis in the movie The Overnight. I don't know if you've ever seen this. No, but now I need to go see it. Just to prove a point.

Well, we have a wonderful guest coming up here. We first met her, I believe, when we were on tour. I forget exactly what exact city did we see each other in. I don't really remember. But it's wonderful to have her back. She's a Peloton instructor. Please welcome Crendall.

All right, let's get on those bikes. Go on, get on those bikes right now, boys. Get those ashes up in the air. Get those heads down. All right, get on there. Let's go. Come on, we want that cadence up to 85. 85 cadence.

got that resistance. Go ahead and turn that up to 135. Wow, resistance 135? That's too much. Is it puff? I think 60 is about the highest that I've ever been. Okay, why are you guys here today? I want you to think about that right now. I want you to think about that long and hard. What is your motivation today? Because I am going to get you absolutely crumped and cramped. Crumped? And cramped?

crumpled and crammed up. Oh, okay. We're going to have you busting and bursting. Ooh, okay. That's right. I'm going to tell you what my motivation is. I'm going to tell you I have had some stomach issues all year long. I have been having diarrhea multiple times a day. We're talking 15, 16 times a day. How are you walking? Went to the gastroenterologist. Guess what he said? Oh, it's he. Okay.

He quit his practice after he got my shit delivered to him to do a test on my shit. If you were there in the office, why did it need to be delivered? Did you pre-send? I had to go home. I had to do the shit test at home. He said if I didn't bring it in, I'd have to put it

Okay. Woo!

All right. You can turn that music off. How are my boys doing? How are you guys doing? I'm a little winded, to be honest. I don't think I've ever been winded doing this show. Oh, God. You guys looked so good out there on those bikes. Ass is up. Thank you. Okay, let's...

Keep it in our pants here. This is a professional show. No, absolutely. No, that's why I came here. I came here to meet someone. That's why I came to Pelican. That's why I brought my bike. I'm single and I want to meet someone. That is your motivation today. That's my motivation. Meeting someone. I love that for you. Crendal, are you available?

I am available, but I should let you know off the top, I am a boy mom. I am absolutely obsessed with my son, and there is nothing that is going to break that bond. I love sons. You do? I love being father to many people. I love to hear that. I am absolutely ass up about that.

Wow. We need to crump and cram some more today, don't we? Yes, let's crump it. I guess so, yeah. Yeah, how are we going to do that? Well, we're probably going to do another round on those bikes, Scott. Oh, okay. Oh, my God. Scott, where... I do have a bike in the corner. Let me get mine. Get your bike. Get your ass over here. Okay, yeah. Finally. You know I love to see it, Scott. I have not seen you online in so long. Where have you been? I'm sorry. I have a busy schedule now. I'm doing podcasts at 9 a.m. now.

I know. I heard I reached out to your assistant. You did. She said you were recording your first episode at 4 a.m. Yeah. Then you had another one at about 5. I'm the Jeffrey Katzenberg in terms of breakfasts to me doing podcasts. Does that make sense to anyone who has never worked with Jeffrey Katzenberg before? Industry. Absolutely not.

He has many breakfasts every morning. And Wayne, where have you been? You had a bike over the pandemic and then the bike went away and I have not seen you since. I'm so sorry. I just lost interest, but now I'm back in it. I'm ready to get crumped, cramped, clumped, and kinked. You want to be one of the clumps, I think you were telling me during the break. Yes, that's my aim. My aim is to take that to Broadway and I want to be the clumps on Broadway. We are going to clump you all up. Let's go ahead and get on those bikes.

again okay let's get rid of this seat real quick all right i'm ready okay that's right okay do you feel that oh clump the seat yeah do you feel that yes i mean we're not going we're just sitting down you should feel that in your ass you feel that seat yeah do you feel those handlebars yes i do i'm touching them is that what you mean do they feel hot uh

I mean, warm, maybe. They should feel scalding hot. Scalding hot. Or you are doing something wrong. I think I'm doing something wrong because mine are lukewarm at best. I'm sweating. I'm sweating so hard right now. Good, I love to hear that from you. God, Wayne, you are a good time. Thank you. You and I, I can see it working out, but I should let you know, I am in a very serious relationship with my son Braxton. Oh, okay. We are absolutely head over heels for each other. Wow. So it is very hard for me to think about having another man at home. Is that...

Okay, well, I'll get in where I fit in. And that's just not a t-shirt. It's a way of life. That's right. This is our new slogan. I'll get in where I fit in. He's only 24 months old, but you know what he said to me the other day? What? He said, Mom, you miss 100 of the shots you don't take. That is an inspirational kid. That's very advanced for a two-year-old. Why do you say 24 months instead of just two? He is 24 months and 23 days. Oh, okay. That's right. And you know what he said to me the other day when I got out of bed? What? He said, Mom, where have you been?

Because the sun doesn't rise unless you rise with it. Come on now, let's ride. Hit that music. Ass is up, face is down. Okay, face down, ass up. Feet up by your hands. That's the way I like to peloton. Get those feet up high. Feet by my hands. We are riding, we are riding. Your cadence is about...

What?

Yeah, I'm not doing it for the fun or the love like we talked about in the first segment. What are you talking? You want it for the money, Scott? Is that what you're doing? I'm just trying to kind of get to the 20th year. Scott, look at me. Podcasters need to be hot now. Did you know that? I know, I know. Most podcasts are on TV. Why are you not on TV, Scott?

Like the last man on earth? I want to be the last person standing. I want to be so healthy that I outlast everyone. I just want everyone gone. I want to be the one here all by myself. I want all extraneous noise gone. I want to be on a bike with my hands by my

I love this for you. Thank you. You want to be like that billionaire who's going to live to 150, don't you? I want to biohack. I want to biohack. We are going to biohack your ass off today. And I'm going to tell you what my motivation is. Can I tell you what my motivation is?

I tell you that right now? Yeah, yeah, please. My motivation is my fucking son. Braxton. I love my son Braxton, but you know what else it is? What? My health. Alright? I went to a gynecologist appointment the other day for a yeast infection I've had for 26 years. Wow. You know what she said to me? What? When I was in

She said, I can't do this anymore. I'm moving to another country. Let's go ahead and ride. Get those asses up, faces down. Okay. Scott, are you sweating? One tiny bead of sweat has appeared on my forehead. What is going on with you? I love to see it. Go ahead and have some of this. I think I'm severely dehydrated. Don't you dare touch that water.

They're up. I mean, they're up. It's about as up as high as I can go. And I've never had quite as much protein in my ass as I've had right now. You should be getting...

Do you feel that? - Yeah, I feel it already. - I'm gonna tell you what motivates me. - You're tasting so much protein. - I'm gonna tell you what motivates me right now. - Get your tongue out of my protein, please. - Sorry, sorry, sorry. - I was really going through it recently when I was realizing that my son was gonna have to marry a woman one day. That was really hard for me to realize.

And I really went through it mentally. So what did I do? Besides working out, I went to a psychiatrist. Oh. That's right. I talked through my feelings a bit. If it's mentionable, it's manageable. We went. I visited them for about, I don't know, five, six sessions until I found out via letter that they killed themselves. Go ahead and get those resuscitations.

Get your cadence up, too. Let's consider it. Let's tone it down on the cadence, actually. Let's go nice and slow here. Let's hit it with a four. Do you feel that? I'm barely moving. Do you feel that, Scott? I guess not really. A four is very, very low. I'm sorry. I'm getting a text from my son, Braxton. He's texting? Right. He's only, what, two years? He says, Mom...

You need to remember something. Every day that we spend together is a lifetime for some people. And hours in a day are actually moments. And moments do not compare to the life that someone could have within the span of time. Time is but a moment. Remember that.

How long do you take on it? I take about 45 minutes on the mini. Okay, that's...

But my son does the New York Times Sunday. And you know how long it takes him? How long? Five seconds. Whoa. Now, in real time or are we talking in a relativistic? Relativistic. Oh, wow.

Do you guys want to have some day? I want to hear it from you. Wayne, do you have a son? Yes, I have a son. What is your son's biggest motivation? Mommy's boobies. That's right.

Oh, so you're going to extract it. Is that okay? Sure. Oh, God. I'm going to do it even if you say no. Oh, God. Oh, God. Do you see how effective he is? I'm Dawson. You don't need the tweezers, Dawson. Oh, yeah, I do. I can't find it.

Is it cool that I'm videoing this whole thing? That's great. Go ahead and put that online and tag us at Peloton. We are going to be putting that on the TikTok, aren't we, Dawson? I'm Dawson. Hi, Dawson. Dawson runs our social media, but he also extracts our sperm and also does the test. Don't you, Dawson? Do you want me to tag you?

Hey, Twitch, it's your boy Wayne. I'm on Twitch. Oh, God. I'm streaming this live. Can you believe this shit? Look at this. I don't think I can perform under these conditions. Dawson, how much sperm do we have out of our friend Scott here? Scott's getting dusty.

I might be dry. I don't know. No, we need to get him. You need to pump him full of something else, don't you? I'm going to go double time. Dawson, double time. He's going Dawson. Dawson, double time. Cadence is at 150. That's right. Cadence is at 150. We're going to turn that up. Go ahead, Dawson. Turn that up to 492. Oh, no. Look at that. Look at that. Resistance at zero. Wow. Looks like we got one sperm.

Okay, is that enough, Mommy? That'll do, right, Dawson? We can work some magic on this family. All it takes is one, from what I heard. Dawson thinks one's enough. Thanks, Dawson. Thank you, Dawson. All right, goodbye. Bye, Dawson. Can I talk to you, Dawson? I'm gone.

Wow, how did you feel? You must feel so good and relieved. I mean, I definitely feel like I could use a cigarette. Do you have anything on you? That was quite an experience to watch. Yes. I feel like I witnessed something that I've never seen before. Yes.

This is what we do at Peloton. Had both of you continued your training, but you guys stopped midway through the pandemic and you never came back. Well, I'm coming back now. Yeah, definitely. I'm definitely on board. All it takes is one class to get you back on board. What happened here today? I am on board. We love to see that. Scott, I cannot wait for you guys to have the boys.

Comedy Bang Bang, we are back. We have Wayne Brady. The podcast is What If with Jonathan Mangum. Yeah. Am I pronouncing that correctly? Mangum? Mangum. Yeah. Because it looks like Magnum, which of course is both a gun and a condom. Right. And he is neither one of those. He is not a condom. We should make that very clear for our listeners. And it's so weird. How many times do I have to clarify that when we do the podcast? Yeah. Yeah.

I have to let people know. I know you came in here expecting to hear a podcast, co-hosted at least by a condom. Right. But he is a man. Yep. He's a human. He's a human who, by the way, has never used condoms. Never. So many children. Yep.

So many children, so many diseases. Yep. He has a child for every disease. Does he not? He brags about that. Yeah. And he names them according to the disease. The disease that he got. Because he thinks it's cute. Yeah. So his daughter, Chlamydia, by the way, is gorgeous. Yeah. A little Gus Gonorrhea. Because he tries to make it sound cutesy to take away the stigma. Sure. Yeah. But he's a really good guy when he isn't passing on. He's a great guy. Loves sex. He...

He loves sex so much, which is kind of our bond. Yeah. Yeah. You bought it because you love sex. He loves sex. Not necessarily with each other, but you know. Not necessarily. With over 30 years of friendship, you're bound to. It's got to happen once. Yeah, exactly. It's got to happen once. I can't tell. I can't tell you when it did, but it did. Was it yesterday? Oh, you got me. Definitely happened yesterday. We also have Crandall here, the Peloton instructor. Oh, my boys.

doing. I just made you these big steak smoothies for you to get some protein-packed smoothies straight into those asses. Speaking of drinking brown, this steak smoothie. This is so good. Thanks, Mommy. Absolutely. How are we doing? I see you're stretching each other. This is so good to see. Yeah, we've been stretching each other out during the entire break.

That's what I love to see. I love to see how loose you're getting. Yeah, we're so limber now. Do you feel crunched and crammed and crackled up? I feel clumped, definitely. Clumped. I'm in a split right now, and I haven't been able to do a full split since I was six. You've done quarter splits and third splits. Half splits, jazz splits, but not a full split. That's right. Mama Kendall absolutely rammed you up, didn't she? Your name's Crandall, by the way. That's what I said, didn't I? I know.

It's all the protein. Mama Crandall really rammed you up, didn't she? She absolutely raw-dogged you both. You are so aggressive, and I love that. I love that, and I love seeing my boys learn and grow and just become closer. Thank you so much. I feel so close to you. I feel close to you, Mommy, but we do have to get to our next guest.

Okay, that's fine. So long as it's another boy. I believe it. Well, I don't. I think a male. Well, what does he identify as? I don't want to just label someone. That's a good question. I haven't. You know, I was a big fan of this person or not person.

I beg your pardon. You are America's favorite rabbit. I feel like I'm both misgendering you and misspecies-ing you. But I believe that a rabbit can be a person of that species. Oh, that's a good way to put it. So the person of rabbits is a rabbit. Let's introduce him or her or them. This is America's favorite rabbit. Please welcome Bugs Bunny. Eh, what's up, scat? Ha ha ha!

How we doing today? Doing great. Wow. I hee him. I hee him. Unless I'm dressed as your lady, then she has. Okay. It's such a pleasure to meet you. A real treat to be here, Scott. Welcome to the One-Timers Club. And let's hope that I stay there. Yep. This is Rain. Hey, real pleasure to meet you. Nice to meet you, too. Yeah. Crandall. Crandall. Hi. Would you like one of these steaks to chew on instead of that nasty carrot? I'm going to stick with my carrot, sweetheart. Okay.

It's such a pleasure to meet you. We all, of course, know you from the Looney Tunes universe. Yeah, I'm a bit of an entertainer. Space Jam. Space Jam, yeah, that's right. Sure. Space Jam 2. I'm a bit, you know, I'm making people laugh. I'm being mischievous. I'm being a bit naughty. Mm-hmm, yeah. Were you always like that, or is that a character? Ever since I can remember, I've been doing little jokes and jumping out of holes. Oh, my gosh.

It did develop over time. I had to find my voice. Yeah. I mean, what were you like as a baby, a child? I was burrowing with all my other siblings. Sure. How many siblings do you have? Seventeen. Did you say 17 or 79? Seventeen.

I think it's open for interpretation. 17, Scott. It's 17. Can I get deep for a second, Scott? Yeah, please. Because something that I've always... The reason that rabbits... I have a problem with rabbits, and I'm really trying to get over that right now, because I don't want to be disrespectful to you, Bugs, is I read Watership Down, and rabbits are violent.

And so I just want to know. It's a cold, cold world out here, Wayne. It's a cold. Have you ever participated in the killing of other rabbits like the rabbits in Watership Down? Well, I'm not familiar with the text material, Watership Down. It's about a whole bunch of rabbits that fucked each other up. Yeah, would you like to read the close notes? I have it right here. Yeah, if you could give it to me real quick. And done. Ding, ding. You are a fast reader. Ha, ha, ha.

You're a speed reader. Yeah. If you just look at the words in the middle, you figure out which one he outshines. Oh, context. Yes, it's all about context. I've killed a couple rabbits in my younger days. It's what you got to do to survive in the hutch. Boys will be boys, as I like to say. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I wish I could turn your opinion on rabbits, though. You're acting like a maroon.

That's why you don't like rabbits. Is that right, Wayne? Because you read Watership Down. Yeah, the book freaked me out. Couldn't help but notice you were unable to answer the question, who's your favorite wabbit?

Well, I mean, I don't have a favorite rabbit right now. Yeah. Right now. That may change. Right now. But I'm leaning towards you. You used to be. You're just saying that. No, it's not true. You're just saying that because I'm in a room right now. I used to love rabbits. I loved all of your early work. Yes. Until I took a course in African-American studies. Right. And I realized how racist a lot of the early Looney Tunes cartoons were. I got nothing to do with that. And you...

You participated in it. I got nothing to do with that. So you had a tacit sort of... I was just working into you. I was doing what I was told. Every single time that a cigar would explode and you sang Mammy, I was offended. Sorry about that. I'd like to formally apologize. It feels like the only way through. Well, let's hug.

Wow. Look at my boys hugging. Thank you. Look at them hold each other. Oh my God. I'm going to tell you something right now. My favorite bunny is the Energizer bunny. The way that he go, go, goes. You know what that means? What? That means war. What?

Okay. If you like to energize your bunny, then you're not a friend of mine. Whoa. Wow. I like the Easter bunny. Of course, Easter was yesterday. That means war. Sorry. Sorry. If I'm not America's favorite rabbit, I'm out. I'm walking. Look at the glint in his eye. Yeah. What are you going to do to us? You're not going to make us explode? I'll shoot you with a really big gun.

Whoa, look at that big gun he has. I've done the shots of three men. It's so long. That's huge. Wayne, your dad can't compare to this. No, I've put Bessie away. She has no business in this room right now. The end of the musket, the bell's bigger than a shoesha phone. So which season is it? Right now? It's funny shoesha. Oh, okay. It's funny shoesha, which is actually why I'm here, Scott. I need your help.

I feel, by the way, you're changing your R's to W's like Elmer Fudd did and Pugs did not. No, I just didn't take my Zyrtec today. That's all. Oh, okay. If I sound a little weird, it's because I didn't take my Zyrtec. Okay, you got to take your Zyrtec. I know this is an early morning podcast. I forgot it. Forgot about it. Hey.

Hey! Bada bing! Bada boom! But I need your help, Scott. It's really serious. What's going on, Bugs? Is it confusing your name is Bugs and you're a rabbit? Not for me. Oh, okay. You know, I'm just so used to it. Maybe for other people, was it confusing for you? Yeah, well, I thought I was introducing a bunch of bugs, and then it turned out to be you. Thank God I look like a rabbit. Yep, that's true. You're not a bunch of bugs that have...

No, no, no. Assembled and formed themselves into a shape of it. This is not a Nightmare Before Christmas villain situation. I don't have a shipper that you can unshipper, and then I'm just a bunch of bugs. Okay. Just wanted to make that clear. All right. What's going on, bugs? I'm in a lot of trouble, you see. Oh, no. I'm currently being taken advantage of by a very powerful, powerful man.

And he's threatening my friend, Scott. Oh, no. And I said to him, I said to him, you leave my friends alone. And he said, that's not good enough for me. And I said, I want to challenge you to a sketch competition. A sketch competition? And so I found myself in this competition, Scott, and I need some help from you. I need some of the best. Are you talking about drawing or- Yeah.

No, sketch comedy, Scott. Oh, so you're like writing a sketch. Yes, yes, yes. All my friends are in danger. But if we win the sketch competition, he's going to let them go. Okay. I trafficked in sketch comedy occasionally. Scott, you can do this. Yeah, I can do this. And Wayne, you're one of the best at comedy. I didn't even know you was going to be.

No, but this is great. And if we could help my new friend that I no longer fear, then I would love to. Sure. And I also write sketches for the Peloton Instagram. Sure. Okay. There's no bad ideas in a room, right? That's right. So who's threatening you? Who's the powerful guy? His name's Mr. Schmack Mallet. No. And he runs an amusement park. Okay. That's great.

That's a silly name. It is. It's a sketch jam. It's a sketch jam. Well, what he wants, he wants to try and take all my friends, and if we lose, we got to work in his amusement park forever. And we got to do the sketch show that we wrote. Like five times a day? Wayne did this. Five times a day. And he loved it. Yeah, it was great. Six days a week. You get meals?

That's what happens at Peloton. We're all stuck there. Oh, really? Oh, okay. You can't leave, huh? You're like indentured servants? Yeah, exactly. We work for Mr. Peloton. Really fun. Maybe we can write something about that. I don't know. Hilarious. Did you give birth there because they wouldn't let you out? Let me tell you something right now. I gave birth on the bike. That is right.

Cadence at 392. This is Bugs Bugs segment. I have cadence. Push it. What? I could be giving birth right now. This is exactly the position I was in. He was out of me just like that. Fell on the floor. I cut that umbilical cord with my teeth. Now I'm dressed up as a nurse and I'm delivering the baby. Should we ride towards that hole in the cliff over there? No, don't. Well, you can as long as you don't look down.

Here's the thing, though. All right. We're up against some really, really tough competition, Scott. Okay. You see, the thing is, Mr. Schmack Mallet, he possessed a bunch of the best comedy shoals and put them for his team. The shoals? The shoals. Like muscle shoals? No, his shoals. Like, what makes you tick? Oh, the thing that weighs seven and a half. The shing shi shai job. Oh, your soul. Your soul. Got it. Got it. Not the chings on your feet. Chings? Chings?

and my allergies i can take your zyrtec next time you're on the show that's so irresponsible to come without his zyrtec i mean it's an emergency my whole friends are at stake let me tell the world's at stake scott you have to understand the people that we're going against are some of the best in comedy which is why i had to go some of the best in comedy mr smack uh mallet yeah he's got tom lennon

No. He's got Tom. He's got Tom. How'd he get Tom Lennon on his side? Tom was on the first episode of this show. He just shucked his essence. He didn't even ask for consent. He just shucked Tom's essence. Oh, he shucked? He shucked Tom's essence? He just shucked Tom's show out his essence. Which hole?

Shoot him out. Oh, okay. Out the butt and through the mouth. That's how we ride. Who else does Mr. Smack Mouth do? The Please Don't Destroy Boys. No. No. All three of them? How are we going to beat some of the best guys right now?

Those are my boys. Those are my sons, those boys. They're so cute. I don't know how we're going to beat them. Who else? Kenan Thompson. Kenan! Not Kenan. So many boys. Kenan Thompson. And then they got the piece de resistance to tie it all together. Who's that? David Kronsch. David... My old...

compadre in Mr. Show, David Cross, has crossed the aisle. I'm sorry to tell you, Scott. Pun intended. He's crossed you. Oh, a pun also intended. I hate to break the news to you, Scott, but even your friend is your fault. Oh, no. How are we going to go? I mean, I have Wayne Brady. That's, and I guess, Crandall.

That's damn right you have me. Well, we got all my friends, too. We got access to all the Looney Tunes, too. Okay, so who do we got? Daffy. We got Daffy. We got Tweety. Goofy? We got Mr. Toots. Wait, we got Tweety Bird. Hold on, back up. Mr. Toots. What? Mr. Toots. I know Mr. Toots. Mr. Toots is part of- You know Mr. Toots? He's part of Kooshtopia. Yeah, that's the world that I'm trying to shape.

You're trying to save Cushtopia? Absolutely. That's where all the Looney Tunes live. We live at the core of Cushtopia. Sorry, Wayne. Do you know what Cushtopia is? No. Crazy. You don't know Cushtopia? What's Cushtopia? It's one of the richest worlds. It's one of the richest environments you could ever be a part of. This is why you need a son to watch Cushtopia with. Cushtopia is an alternate universe that's made entirely of weed? Mostly. Cushtopia? Cushtopia?

mostly everything's made of ganja. There's a train, I believe. Yes, there's a train. It goes around. Some of it's metal. Some of it's made of nudge. It's an alternate universe. You have to understand, 65 million years ago, a comet hit Earth. It split Earth into two Ursh. Earth and Urtu. Urtu, Cushtopia.

I can't believe you don't know this. You know what? I didn't know that it was Cush-topia, but I remember as a kid reading my favorite comic book, which was about this kid, an alien, crashed to Earth. He was discovered in a field, and it turned out to be Snoop Dogg.

and he came from this place. That was your favorite comic when you were a kid? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. My favorite comic was about Snoop crashing to Earth, and he got his powers under this yellow sun. Snoop Dogg's got his hands in everything. So he's from Cushtopia. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Did Snoop come over here from Cushtopia? I'm sure Snoop took a portal. A guy that can smoke that much weed, he's probably got Cushtopian blood. He has powers. No problem. Cushtopian. You'll have to forgive me, Bugs, but I'm not a huge fan of Cushtopia. What do you mean?

I just, there's been several guests on this show over the years. A bunch of nice guys, I'm sure. I don't know. Who's the motorcycle? Marty Motorcycle? Marty Motorcycle. The guy who always forgets his motherfucking guns? Exactly, yeah.

He's available. He could do the sketch show. Imagine having a transforming man slash motorcycle available for your sketch show. I don't know that it's something that I'm incredibly interested in. It sounds hilarious. Oh, so you're not interested in saving an entire planet, Scott? I'm looking up on Reddit, and one of the comments that comes up is, Scott's exasperation about custodian.

Oh, have people picked up on this? It's so fucking funny. Someone says Scott's exasperation about Christopia is so fucking funny. That is hilarious. The fact that they, that it, Scott's default persona, he hates,

Kushtopia. Listen to that, Scott. Let that fill you up. Do you hate it? Well, here's the problem. I have guests on this show. Right. And ostensibly they're talking about something else and then they slip in references to Kushtopia, something that I'm just not, I have no personal affinity for. Well, there's people that live there. There's real hodge. Don't you want to shave the looney tones? But we don't know.

What don't you know? What don't you know? Bugs, I think that empathy can stretch only so far. We don't know people in Cush-topia. Scott Dodge, though. He says he knew Mr. Toots. Motorcycle who? Motorcycle Marty. Mr. Toots. Who else? The Executioner. Oh, right. Cooter the Supercomputer. We could retcon that the Green Ranger I did the... I mean, a person did the first episode could be from Cush-topia. Okay.

It's a rich world that needs shaving. Half of my boys on Peloton are in Couchtopia working their asses. Do you guys want to save Couchtopia? Yes. Do we need to go to Couchtopia? Not at all. We just got to write some sketches, cash the sketches, and then we'll go to do the sketch show. And if we win, Couchtopia's shaved. When is the sketch show that we're supposed to do? Tomorrow. Tomorrow? We got a crunch.

It took me a long time to get over here. We need to cram. We need to clumps. We need the clumps, and we need a writing session right now. That's right. We need to get rammed together. I got some ideas. Let's do this. I got some ideas. Let's use the title of Wayne's podcast, What If? What If? And that's a good way to write sketches, because you've got an idea. You say, what if this is true? What if? What if? Yeah, exactly. What else? What if? Who done it? Right, exactly. Who done it? Who did it? How's it going? Who done it? Who did it? What if?

These are all the improv questions. What'd they have for dinner? When did it happen? Anything can happen. Okay, so what if the Bride of Frankenstein, she's hot and Patti LuPone is playing her, right? And what if she goes to Couchtopia? Right. And she has a really hot son.

Okay. A really super hot son. Yeah. Who is, she's jealous of him. Okay. We'll write it on the board. Look how hot my son is. Yeah. You shash legs. You shash legs. Scott, do you think we should maybe get Jack Galifianakis? Do you think you could put a call out for Jack? I don't like to bother him too much. Let's go ahead and call.

Zach, right now, get that phone out and let's dial that number. I guess I could. Maybe Zach's got a couple of pitches or he's got a character he could play or something like that. Go ahead. Let's pitch it to him. Let's see what he says. Let me see if I can find his info here. Just pull him up, Scott, your old friend. Come on, Scott. Go to his Facebook marketplace account that you communicate with him through. All right. Let me try to call and see what happens here. See if he picks up. Okay.

Call failed. That's how quickly he presses no. Scott, let's try another celebrity that you connected with. Rob Hubel. Let's try Rob Hubel. The other guy who was in the first episode of this show? Rob, yes. Why not Rob? Scott, let's give Rob a call. You want me to call Rob Hubel? Rob, he's got the human giant juice behind him. He's got to pick up. He's got to pick up for you. All right.

Because I'm sure he's not doing anything this morning. No, it's only 9.55. He's just getting his day started. Let's call Rob Hubel. Rob, please. He's got to have an original score. Call failed again. What the? Scott! You've got to work on your friendship, Scott. This is how much juice I have in Hollywood. Scott, what is going on here? People I've known for decades will not pick up the phone for me. And I came here because I said, Scott's got the juice. Here's your 40.

Thank you so much. This tastes good. I am worried about my boy. Mixed with all the protein? I'm worried about my son. He needs to have friends. We need to find you another friend, Scott. Who else can we call? Tim Baltz, maybe? Yeah, let's give Tim Baltz a call. Tim Baltz from the Righteous Gemstones? He's not as big of a name, but maybe he will pick up for that reason. But he is funny and smart. He's got a lot of juice. He's got so much juice. So much industry juice. Let's see if Tim Baltz will pick up.

Call failed. Oh my God. Maybe it's a problem with the phone or something. Maybe a shim catch not working. Are you using the correct phone right now? Well, I'm calling through the computer, which I'm not accustomed to doing. You need to be calling on your actual phone. Okay. We need to give him a ring. And Scott, if we could get an original Lisa Gilroy character in this sketch show, I think it'd be really, really profitable. That would make the fans happy, I'm sure. Absolutely. But I hate women. All right. Let's see. I'm just so happy. None of these calls are going through. Let's see. Let's see if Tim Baltz picks up.

The suspense is killing me. Hello? Hi, Tim. Yeah. Yeah, this is Scott Aukerman from Comedy Bang Bang. Yeah, why are you bothering me? Why am I bothering you? We're friends, aren't we? Yeah, but you've never called me. Well, you're on the air right now. Is that okay? Oh, God.

I'm here with Bugs Bunny and Wayne Brady and Crendle, who's a Peloton instructor. How are you doing, Tim? I haven't seen you in a bit on that bike. Yeah, what's up, Tim? Yeah, we're doing a big sketch competition tomorrow, and I know you've done some sketch, haven't you? I know you're an improv guy. Ask him if he can take his wigs out of retirement. Yeah, can you take your wigs out of retirement for us? Yeah, sure. I don't know.

I mean, I'll do whatever it takes. You know me. I'm a slut. You are a comedy slut, aren't you? Yeah, 100%. I've been seeing you on that Righteous Gemstones. You're doing pole dancing, and it just seems like you're a slut for comedy, and you'll do anything for a laugh. Of course. I mean, I get paid, and people laughing at me. This gig does not pay. This doesn't pay, yeah. You get paid in exposure.

I guess. Other people are exposing themselves to me. Yeah. Is that cool? Can we count on you? Yeah, 100%. I got a ton of wigs. I'll bring them. You know, just... Tell him he's shaving the whole world. I'll do what you want with me. You're saving the world of Couch Topia. And by the way, we're only asking you to do it because Zach Galifianakis wouldn't pick up. No.

I should be so lucky. Hopefully most of your roles that will come around is because Zach won't pick up. That would elevate me big time. All right, thanks. We can count on you. I appreciate it, buddy. You got it. Anything you want to say to the Comedy Bang Bang listeners? Yeah. Tweet at Scott. Tell him to call me as a friend sometimes. Nope. All right. Talk to you later. Bye. Smoochish, Tim.

Hey, Scott, thanks for extending your shop like that. I'll do one call to a famous person, and Tim is about the most famous person we can do. I think Tim's going to really tip the tides. Tim's really good. He's having a really good moment right now. He's having a moment. He's really, really funny. And I also saw him on another TV show where he's playing a completely different character on Deli Boys. He killed it. That's right. Yeah. I know someone else who was on Deli Boys and had one scene. Yeah, I think I know who you're talking about, Scott. She had about...

One to two lines. She served a big platter of cocaine. Is that who we're talking about? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You saw her. In Hollywood, there's no small pots. No, that's right. There's only small people. And she is small, Scott. She's so tiny. Not like you, Grendel. How tall are you? I'm 6'9", Scott. And that's before I put on my heels, which I wear when I...

the bike that's right hello nice mommy so bugs did we that's right did we solve your problem i know this isn't happening till tomorrow but well i think we could probably maybe brainstorm some more sketches right uh okay i got a couple i got a couple what do you got night lotus

K-N-I-G-H-T. Like the Dark Knight? Yeah, it's like White Lotus. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's not like that at all, Scott. Batman's in the WP universe. K-N-I-G-T. K-N-I-G-H-T. Okay, Night Lotus. Night Lotus. And is Night Lotus a superhero? No, it's like the White Lotus, but it's in a medieval time.

Oh, Night Lotus. And it takes place in a castle? Maybe, yes. This is what the room's for. We're brainstorming. It takes place in a castle. Nice. And then a family arrives for a vacation. You're doing the work. And they're beheaded. Ha ha ha!

And it's a blackout sketch. What if the whole show's quick blackout sketches? That's it. I love that. What if Merlin's involved and he shows his penis when his bathrobe opens up? Blackout. Boom. Don't even need to explain anything else. Oh, that's really funny, Scott. Yeah. Devil's in the details. Merlin and Arthur, they kiss. Yeah. Blackout. Blackout. Okay, I've got one. Yes. They go ahead and make a big-ass smoothie together and they drink the smoothie.

Blackout. Great. Blackout. Hilarious. I'm putting it on Peloton. Really funny. She's coming to get her real nice. She's good, right? You're writing this down, right? Oh, wait. You get it. Huge typewriter right now.

That's going to take forever. He's literally only writing about one word on each slide. By the way, just listen to the podcast later. Let me read it back. Okay. Bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs. So many pieces of paper for that. Hey, you got to keep the ideas flowing. It's true. Yes, and. Yeah.

This is good. This is good. Do you have any other sketch ideas? I got a ton. Okay. What about some parody, Sean? Ooh. Let's talk philosophy for a second. Okay. Is a parody a sketch?

Is a parody song a sketch? Is a parody song a sketch? I mean, Wayne, you do a lot of parody songs. I think a parody song can be, a parody song can just be a song, but a parody song can be a sketch if it's built out. If there's a world visually around the song, then it's a sketch. So there's got to be a lot of visual elements. Maybe there's just one of those, like a digital short. Oh, yeah. Where you shoot it off location and show it on the day. You know the Please Don't Destroy It boys are going to be doing this.

And that's why we gotta compete. We need to compete with them. We gotta compete with them. We gotta let them know you can't just get there. Oh no, they can't beat us on the song. Oh no, we got Wayne Brady. We got him. What about a parody for the audio slave song Like a Stone called Like a Stove?

Oh, like a stove. It doesn't rhyme necessarily. Like a stone. And I don't know, what's the melody to that song? In your house, shine long, Toby. Bitch in the room. I'm trying to play the video, but we got to sit through an ad first. What is this? This is on the Peloton track right here. You don't have an ad block? Get those asses on.

I've been on a bike. And you're in the creative space. And I love this. I'm ready. I'm ready. This has subtitles. It says, Crew Speaks. Okay, here we go. Whoa. All right, Wayne. What would you do on top of this? It's about a stove? Yeah. It's like a stove. Like a stove. So it's not actually a stove. It's not actually a stove, but it's akin to a stove. It's actually good you don't know the melody. Yeah.

So these undistinguishable lyrics, what would you change to make it like a stove? First, I'd make it English. Right. The place in which I would cook my food.

If I don't cook it, the pork all the way through, trichinosis, it might beat up because this is like a stove. Yeah! This is like a stove. A source of heat. It might cause it to explode.

You've got to preheat your house. Yes, Scott. Preheat it. Like a stove. Like a stove. You've got to preheat your house and your bedroom, your stove. Doom, doom, digga, digga. Whee. This is old. And then I can do a guitar show, though, because I can't play guitar. Oh. You should have led with that. Whee, whee, whee.

That's more of a zither. Hey, good note. Or a theremin. So I'd work on that. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll get an actual guitar dish tag. Well, Bugs, hopefully this is helpful to you. We're going to definitely be there. What time tomorrow? 420. AM. Okay. 420 AM. 420 AM. You usually have Peloton at 420 AM, Scott. Making a note. 420 AM. What are you going to do? Because I've got to get up and dunk my face in ice. Yeah.

Those water bottles that are all blue. You need to get your asshole in the sun. You want to get those blue glass water bottles? Yes. Because that's the thing. You eat a banana and tape it? It's really important. You got to do that. Put your feet in the grass. Go ahead and touch grass for me. Okay. There you go. I brought my own. I think there's one Shing mission. Christopia. There might be one Shing mission in our sketch comedy show. What's that? We don't have a commercial parody.

Easy. Don't you feel like that should be an element in our sketch show? I don't know that we have time at this point. Yeah, you're right. You're right. It's too much. We could do a commercial parody. The show's got so much good stuff. But I do think this lineup, we're going to shave Cushitopia, Scott. Mr. Tooch is going to live another day. I don't care.

Okay. But yet you're still participating. Out of professional courtesy to you, my current guest, I will participate in this sketch fest. Reddit just said in real time, wow, Scott really does hate this. Not a fan. But you know what I am a fan of? What? All of our guests here. We are running out of time. We just have time for one final feature, and that is, of course, a little something called plugs. Ooh. Hey. Hello.

Wow. That was wonderful. That was Plugs Off the Bob by Rob Collins. Thanks to Rob. If you have a plugs theme, head over to cbbworld.com slash plugs and you could be famous for a week. And Rob, you are famous this week. Enjoy it while it lasts. Yes, Rob. What are we plugging, Wayne? Obviously, the podcast is What If?

Yes, the podcast is What If on the HeadGum Network. It's myself and Jonathan Mangum. He's not a condom. He is not a condom, but he is stretchable and see-through, and he fits like a glove. Yes. Man. I hope he's listening. So that's what I'm plugging. And the 17th season of Let's Make a Deal. Yeah, that's incredible. Is it 17 years? Yeah.

So it's not like Survivor that does two seasons. Right. So it is 17. Maybe it's 16 and a half years, but it's 17 seasons. What an achievement. The latest season of Whose Line Is It Anyway on the CW, you can catch it. If you're at USC, go to your lectures. Yeah. If you're a student at USC and you're in my class, I'll see you there. Learn how to kill chickens. Learn how to kill chickens with mime. Yeah.

With mime. Oh, wow. Space work. You could kill people with space work. Incredible. It's amazing. Crandall, what are you plugging here? Go ahead and hit me with the music, Scott. Get those asses up. Get on those bikes. I'm going to go ahead and plug some of my most favorite podcasts. They're on CBBWorld.com. Facebook changed my life. Hey, Randy, go. Check out Deli Boys. That woman who serves that big old platter of cocaine is looking awesome. What are those two lines? Do you remember them? Shut up.

I do not remember at all. If you're a real actor, you would remember your lines months after you. What I got, but I loved her performance. Also, check out St. Dennis Matters. Y-I-L-Y. Y-I-L-Y. It's not confusing. It makes sense.

Got it. Locked in. All right. And my son Braxton. Oh, shout out Braxton. Yeah. Well, of course, you can come see the sketch show on 421 and Cush-topia at Cush CB. The Cush right.

That's not happening. No, there's not a CBB Presents of Chris Tropia. And of course, the show will be live taped and promoted and on Comedy Bang Bang World for everybody to listen to. Live sketch. It's audio now. Okay. Thanks for the opportunity, Scott. I think it's going to have a wonderful home here on Comedy Bang Bang World. I don't think so.

I want to plug Speaking of Comedy, Bang Bang World. You can go head over there for our entire archive, every episode ad-free, every live episode we've ever done, all 900 and whatever episodes of this show, plus the aforementioned shows that we've been talking about. CBB Presents, Scott Hasn't Seen, so many shows over there. And someone wrote to us the other day and said, hey, you've never talked about how cheap it is. I've just not got it because I figured it was so expensive.

and it's only $8 a month for everything and only $80 a year. Now I'm going to subscribe. Yeah, please. I'll give you a code. No, I want to support. All right. I don't want to end up drinking those 40s on the street. That's why. I'm here for you, Scott.

I love to see this support between my boys. I love to support my roommate. You know, my new roommate. That's right. Yeah. I got to clean out the garage for you. Don't even bother. Oh, really? Don't even bother. I love Phil. You can just lie across the motorcycle that's in there. Also, The Astonishing Spider-Man. I'm still writing Spider-Man for Marvel. You can get that on... Wait a minute. What? The comic book. Yes. No.

I know. We'll even have a... Okay. I love you officially even more. Oh, thank you. I'm a huge comic fan. Oh, wow. And all I ever wanted to do as a kid at first, I just wanted to write. Oh. And I got a chance once. I wrote a Marvel, a Spider-Man annual. Jonathan and I wrote a story. You wrote one together? So that's my whole thing is I just want to write comic and sci-fi. So you're my new hero. Okay. Well, I have a contact for you over there if you want to continue writing. You rock. For the listeners.

Wayne is currently holding Scott in his arms like a baby. Oh, my God. He's thrown open his shirt. He's wearing a Spider-Man costume underneath. And here's my boobie. Oh, hello, Nash. All right, let's close with the old plug bag. Opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, opa, op

Oh, no! Jesus Christ. Why do both farts are the...

funniest thing in the world. That was 2001, a space opening by Thomas Hand. Thank you so much. And guys, I want to thank you so much. Wayne, pleasure to meet you. Pleasure to have you on the show. I loved having you. And Crendle. So good to see you. I feel similar about you. My son. And Bugs, I'll see you tomorrow, 420 AM. Was she at rehearsal? Wait, there's a rehearsal too? Yeah. Oh yeah. You got six rehearsals. And for this reason, I'm out. No! I'm so sorry.

We'll see you next time. Thanks. Bye. Okay, Dawson. Let's go. Here we go.

Thank you.

That's the sound of fried chicken with a spicy history.

Thornton Prince was a ladies' man. To get revenge, his girlfriend hid spices in his fried chicken. He loved it so much, he opened Prince's Hot Chicken. Hot chicken in the window. This is one of many sounds in Tennessee with a story to tell. To hear them in person, plan your trip at tnvacation.com. Tennessee sounds perfect.
