Oh, yeah, I'll do my real voice. Hey, guys. Oh, it was so hard to do my other voice. It hurts, right?
Good Hang with Amy Poehler
Tina Fey
It hurts. Anyway, it's so great that you guys are doing this today.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I'm going to just say this is the most lonely island thing, Amy, that you showed up before my co-hosts.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
That part was shabby. That was shabby. But the other part, not too shabby.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Historically shabby. Wait, there was something else. Oh, your last update.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
which is a move I stole years later when I had my last update, which is you addressed a very emotional goodbye to camera, but it did not go very long before it was interrupted by Fred as then New York Governor David Patterson, who had sort of wandered, was unaware that he had wandered into the shot, but he was very close to the camera in the foreground.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I don't know, because I watched it. It might be my favorite Bronx Beat ever.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And again, it was just the patience of Fred in a bit. He was so not in a hurry. And you just had to lean into the tiniest corner of the frame to say goodbye. That's quality. That's quality.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
You know what else is special about it? It didn't undercut the emotion. It was just parallel. It ran parallel to it.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It's very sweet because, of course, I'm watching it now knowing it's your last episode. I, of course, realized that means Maya came back to just be a friend and join you. It's also kind of cool knowing now that at the SNL 50th, that was a sketch that sort of has endured and been a place there. Bronx Beat is so funny.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I went back and watched, because Fred is also on the phone when it first starts, and he's talking very quietly. David Patterson is aware he's in the studio, but he isn't aware he's in the shot.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It's really good. Wow. Well, it was really special. And thank you for joining us to talk about your final show.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Oh, he's not coming today. He wasn't kidding. Yeah. Also, just for our listeners and for you, you can just skip to the end when you listen to this, Amy. I am going to play the Bronx Beat line about sweetbreads. Will be the last thing anybody hears in this episode.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
That was an emotional roller coaster. My goodness.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It really did. And again, I think when somebody's willing to jump on a podcast from an airport, it's a level of affection that we're lucky to have in our lives.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
That's great. And so Tina's just in line to get one of those pretzels?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
They said that the publicist would be happy to be a guest.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
All right. We love you, Polar. Safe travels.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Also, Shoemaker just spent three days on vacation with Jodie Mancuso, who's the inspiration. And he said, oh, yeah, the best thing is Jodie really does talk like that in real life.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Love you. Thank you for getting on here.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Oh, that's nice. Mother-in-law. Yeah. We would not have wanted you to cut that short. I'm saying that genuinely. Yes, I know. So no Andy today.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Oh my God. But I do want to jump in, Joram. Yeah. I have some comments from people. About Spelling Bee? Well, someone said, stop talking about Spelling Bee. Nobody wants to hear about this boring shit.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
But go ahead. I just felt like the fact that Andy wasn't here might be a real break for people. But if you have a question.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
But if one comes in during this. It's too early over here. I'll definitely let you know. Oh, hey, can I give a little shout out to us?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And you know what? Shout out to Quaid Army, really. We won the People's Choice Webby. Hey, we won the Webby. People's Choice. Thank you, Quaid Army. You guys had a code word for me in the last episode to check.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Do you know what it is, Slacker? I do, but somebody wrote a really funny thing in the comments, which was, I feel like you should ask Jorma first if he remembers.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
This is, I mean, what a great outcome. Thank you for your comment.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I feel like this is a scene. This is like a scene in Austin Powers where. Periwinkle. We're the periwinkle players.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Yeah, baby blue. Yeah. Somebody did mention the vest, Jorm. I hate to roll from one burn into the other. Shocking. Well, we can reveal the price of the vest, too. Somebody said, I think I know the price of the vest. It was Jorma's dignity.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
The funniest comment about Quaid Army is someone said, wait, when did we start getting called the Quaid Army? What did I miss? And I want to say like 12 episodes. Seems like you might. By the way, you're not Quaid Army. If you don't know why.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
No, it's a vibe. Right. Hey, wait, okay, so what are your guys' guesses on the vest? Somebody asked, they wanted to know what store it was from because they feel like if it was a label.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And he never could wear it again because it looked like he was in costume. I don't know if this podcast is quite Lazy Sunday big. I'm still going to wear it. I'm still going to wear it on fucking purpose. I think you can still wear the vest is what I was getting at.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
There is maybe one of the biggest laughs in the history of Rockspeed in this episode, which is Hugh Laurie is on and you guys are very enamored with his accent. You make him say schedule. He says schedule and you just both lose your minds.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I'll wear it over at the rest of today and I'll let you know if I get peeped.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I was in Austin, Texas for my bar mitzvah and someone came up to me at a breakfast taco place and very politely just sort of leaned in. I was sitting with the kids and just leaned in and said, Quaid Army.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Yeah. I like that it's not something you sort of yell across a crowded party.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
You did. I thought it was super funny. I thought you were going to be disappointed. No, it was great. I was almost like disappointed how little you guys needed me. Keeve, you were kind of the star of it. Congrats. Oh, thank you so much. He kept it, Seth Lee. I think you did the best job putting your hand on the wheel. With that said, there were some comments that made me feel a little bit better.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Someone wrote, now it can be answered. Why is Seth involved in this podcast that is mostly about the Lonely Island? Cut to image of kindergarten class where students are eating paste, running with scissors, and dipping the class tortoise in finger paint.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Yoram kept saying, this car is off the tracks. Multiple people said cars don't go on tracks.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Yeah, you did. Okay. Somebody wrote, finally with Seth gone, we can talk about Baja fresh menu prices.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Yeah. But yeah, I was very, I enjoyed it a great deal. And now Andy has a week off for some stuff.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I was free of judgment. Okay. Well, we missed you.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Wait, we are going to talk about some shorts though, right? Yeah, we're going to talk about the Hugh Laurie short, which is called Cookies. And the very simple premise here is Hugh Laurie is running a meeting. It is in one of those very poorly lit offices that we shot a lot of the early or you shot a lot of the early shorts in.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And the entire gist is that over the course of the meeting, Fred just keeps sort of reaching into the center of the table to eat cookies. It's a very simple premise.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Support comes from Rula. We were talking about therapy today, Jorm. Yeah. You had to go to therapy because Fred had such an accurate impression of you.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I mean, that was one of my issues. I think almost everybody who went through SNL both loved it and found their way to a therapist.

And it is a rolling laugh. But I love that this whole time you are not aware of the fact, because I do think that Betty and Jodi from Bronx Beat don't know anybody who doesn't talk like them.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It is so funny. I can see you lying on a couch. Although I don't think anybody does that in therapy anymore. But I can see you lying on a couch and being like. And everybody's just like, I'm Jorma. I'll do it. I'll do it. Like, is that who I am? And then Fred came in and ripped my soul apart on accident.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
My middle of the table observation is that, you know, SNL, the table read on Wednesdays, there would just be, you know, the middle of the table, sort of a lot of snacks, including sort of little sandwiches that were very middle of the road. Not awful, not great. Just exactly what you think a small ham and cheese sandwich would be. And the amount that I would just stress eat them. Really?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
You know, just during a table read, I would just reach over and eat. And that thing of, oh, it's, you know, between lunch and dinner, you know, they say you should have like three tiny sandwiches. You know, it's not a meal. It's like between meals. And I went back. There was one table read for the SNL 50th. And I sat down and it was so fun. And it was everybody I wanted to see.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Oh, I've been there. I think I think I was there specifically with you, Lori.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And like halfway through a sketch, I was like, oh, God, I'm going to eat a sandwich. Just like. We're back, baby. Yeah. I've got a hole inside me that's going to be filled with sandwiches.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
4.45, I would say, is fine. They say it's three, and then it's like 4.45.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Well, you were sitting farther away. The writers sort of sit in the back. Anyone in the cast is around the table, which I technically still was.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I mean, that, Fred, those little observations about people like, oh my God, I'm bad.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
How long do you think one of these took to shoot, Keefe?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Andy and I were talking about how I Think You Should Leave does that thing where the beats are never A, B, C. They're A, J. ZZ. But you also know they all make sense. If you can picture what the beats in between would be, they all would be there. Yes.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I think Hugh Laurie might be in Golden Episode, despite the fact that even at the time, I think Lauren certainly knew how Cookies was not going to be Criterion. It played. It was the last sketch of the night. Yeah, it was the very last sketch.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Yeah. For people who only, I mean, again, he was hosting for Dr. House and he has a really lovely sketch performer moment. He runs a butcher shop and you guys are just asking him what his favorite cut of meat is. And it's just using breast. You like the breast, inner thigh, outer thigh. And you say tongue and he breaks, but just a little bit, just a little British break.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Have we ever had that happen? It's a weirdly long show. A couple of sketches were cut on air. Christmas album, which I'm assuming is Clancy T. Baclarat. Also, budget Christmas decorations, which would be Googie Renee. So a couple of really good... recurring characters didn't make it onto the show late. Cut after dress.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I'm only going to say it so that Kevin can pull a short clip from the Australians. That was the sketch where Wig and Fred and Bill were Australians packing for a trip.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Hopefully there were no laughs in that clip because there never were. But there was a couple of very important firsts in the Hugh Laurie episode. You know, we discussed with Polar one of my favorite Bronx beats of all time, the great Bronx beat with Hugh Laurie. What did you like about it so much?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I just kind of forgot that the fun thrust of the game of Bronx beat is they're just over it, but also super horny for their male guests. And in this case, Hugh Laurie is a British guy who owns a butcher shop. They say it's really fancy because it's spelled P-P-E, the shop. That's an observation they make early on.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And he says one of their specials coming up is they're going to be selling Christmas goose.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It's really nice. Wedding Toast, the first appearance of Will Forte's character, Hamilton Whiteman. Oh, yeah. That's groundbreaking.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Who became his own thing. Yeah. Also made an appearance at your wedding. Yeah, so Wedding Toast, which Fred's name is actually first, which is interesting to me.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Fred wrote that. Wedding Toast is a perfect cast sketch idea. Really nice point guarding in this sketch by Sudeikis, who is the guy who's trying to get the Wedding Toast to wrap up so everybody can go dance. And everybody has one simple game and they come out and crush it. Starting with Hugh Laurie, who as the host has three appearances.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
He's a guy named Bob Kemp, has a perfectly flat American accent. All he's trying to do is remember how long he's known the bride's father.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I'll be back. Then Fred comes out. One of my favorite Fred looks of all time. Long black hair, sideburns, a black tuxedo, but with shorts. And he's the ex-boyfriend of the bride. And his first line is, so Tina, look, we ended bad, which is great. Wig comes out with an oxygen tank on rollers, breathing very heavy. She says she is the boss of the groom.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I was not invited and I do not have a ride home. We were talking about how Bobby Moynihan's early time on the show was just coming out and murdering with one moment. He just comes out, takes the microphone, says what into the microphone, then drops it. And then Forte comes out as Hamilton Whiteman and the audience doesn't know what to do with this. He is outwardly racist.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And then he sort of, he manages to play it off like it was his character laughing a little bit, but it's a really nice moment.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And he makes it very clear in the course of his toast that he thinks the country's made a terrible error electing Barack Obama. That's one of the first things he says. He also starts by saying, I'm a friend of a cousin. We've talked about how Forte obsesses over a small language. And then every now and then you see an example where you realize, oh, yeah, it was worth the extra time.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It may have taken 20 minutes to write that line. Someone in the audience is like, I don't know if it's a gasp or a hiss because there's no laughter to cover it.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It's mind boggling. Hey, what's up, dudes? Hey, Seth. I would like to talk about Viore because our support comes from Viore. But I'd also like to say that, you know, I do believe that our ad reads are also content.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
For sure. Just sort of naturally the way I would talk to you guys as buds. I would tell you that Viore is incredibly versatile, comfortable, perfect for whatever your day brings. It's designed to look great beyond the gym. I mean, you guys can't see Jorma right now, but he's on a treadmill.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It's pretty awesome. But I want to ask, so you knew you were leaving. It's a Christmas show. And my memory is you knew you were leaving to do parks.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And the thing that's great is now Jorm's going to get right off that treadmill and he can head to the office. He can go run errands. He can meet up with friends because it looks great beyond the gym. It's great for any workout or activity. And you should try the Core Short Jorm. It pairs well with a vest. Thanks.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It's also fitness versatility. One short every sport. Ideal for fitness, running, and training. Soft, lightweight, four-way performance stretch. Moves with you. No restriction. You can't restrict norm even if you tried, but the core short's working with it. If I went five ways, then maybe.

Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Yeah. Oh, speaking of Fred and speaking of the party we talked about with Polar, Shoemaker's the last party, which was he came up to the 17th floor and we'd set up a bar and everybody was there and people gave speeches. And a couple of speeches, I remember, Forte and Sudeikis did as John Bovee came out and gave a speech. And they did not call him Shoemaker. They called him Lace Destroyer.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
America, Sawyer, John Mulaney, and Simon Rich had just started on the show. And so their toast was about how they only knew him as the guy who made them write promos when, you know, the guests and people stay on the stage and like, hey, I'm the, I'm hosting SNL this week. And so their farewell to him is they each read a promo they had written. His favorite thing.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And then Fred, Fred did two things. One, at the time, because again, this was... This was post the 2008 election. Ratings for SNL were really high. And Fred was like, I'd like to read you some numbers. Last week, SNL did a 5-2. When Mike Shoemaker started, the show did a 4-1. This is all he ever cared about. And it was just a lot of him doing Nielsen numbers. Yeah.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And then he said that one thing he has in common with Shoemaker is they're both fans of a couple of mates from Liverpool. And then he sat at the piano and Fred does this really great bit where he plays Blackbird in the wrong course. Wrong key, I guess. And it was just a really just like it. It's so unsettling to the ears to hear.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
We'll get Fred to play his version of Blackbird. It was also the first appearance of this show, which was Amy's last update, as we discussed with her. It was also the first appearance of Fred as Governor David Patterson, which is one of the funniest things that has ever been on SNL.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It did end with the actual governor showing up and doing the sketch with Fred, which I think speaks to the fact that it was all in good fun. But it is very interesting to me even now that it got away with it. And one of the reasons it gets away with it is Fred is just so charming as Governor David Patterson, who was and is legally blind.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
He dumps on New Jersey. He dumps on upstate New York. He delivers line like a Borscht Belt comic. He also does a thing where when he delivers a punchline, he opens both of his eyes and looks directly at camera. There's like a thousand great moves. Mulaney Klein-Jost, I want to say, wrote it. Whenever I'm going to New Jersey, I have that in my head.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I will tell you that having talked to a governor, David Patterson, he always thought it was very funny. Um, there is a really great line where, uh, I think Amy, no, it was me. I say, what do you have against New Jersey? And he says, unfortunately, a Southern border. Um, It was really like one of those lines that like would have worked in like 1915. Yeah, that's a classic.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I remember the first time we did it, it had been in one of those like free New York magazines that, you know, there was actually like just a newsstand where you could open and the front page was a full picture of Fred with the headline too far. And I think I took like 50 of them to the office. Too far.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Too far question mark. Oh, oh, gotcha. Yeah, there was a little like, was it? Oh, yeah. So they were charmed. We did it a lot more. And as we discussed with Polar earlier, it was a very special way to end her final show. So sweet. I'm a little bummed. And we'll obviously have to get a pickup from him to talk about it. A sketch that I think about a lot is lamps. Do you remember lamps?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It's on the tip of me remembering. Oh, no. It starts with Fred and Michaela Watkins. They own a lamp shop and they walk out. And as soon as they walk out, Wig and Hugh Laurie and Sandberg in really dumb lamp costumes dance out and start singing a song about how they're lamps. Sort of like a Disney musical. And then they're like, oh, they're coming back. And they go and they hide.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
And they come back in and they say, oh, did those lamps move? And it's like, oh, don't be ridiculous. And then they walk out again. And then they start singing their song again. And then the next thing you hear is just Fred and Michaela screaming because they've come back in. And then the lamps get a little, the lamps make some bad choices.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I haven't listened to this, but I did text Rob Klein, who co-wrote it with Sandberg, like just 20 minutes ago. And I said, let me know as quick as you can. Don't rewatch it. Share your memories about Lamps. Also, he wrote, apologies, it's long. I had a lot to get off my chest. It's almost five minutes.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
You did a couple of shows. I think you did the last run of sort of December shows, November, December shows after Thanksgiving. Yeah. So you came back and did those. But I definitely remember you telling me, I'm going to leave and also I'm going to leave because I'm going to work with Cher on Parks and Rec.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It's sort of, I mean, Maya's in the episode, but you know my favorite cast photo, which is that sort of black and white one where we're all dressed like 40s, 50s movie stars. The closest any of us will get to a 40s or 50s movie star.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Wow. That was all worth it. That was a really good voice note. Smooth, smooth voice on Rob Klein. And by the way, one of the many great ways Rob is a collaborator is Rob Klein always has that very even keel to himself. Because, you know, obviously that's as bad as it's ever gone for him. And he seemed pretty calm about it.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It's weird that that interrupted how seriously you take your podcast, but keep going.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I want to make a prediction for the next episode, which is Andy's position will be Lamps is better than we all say it was. I think Andy has real Lamps trauma because people made fun of it for a long time afterwards.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
I mean, good stuff got cut for Lamps. And Lamps played high. It's very funny, too, because the amount that Lauren is somehow... Gets to act like he has no hand in the show. Yeah, he does. He does do that. It's like that.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
So it's so crazy. Lorne cut eight things just so Lamps, the sketch he hated, could play after update.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
No, I remember there being a lot to Lamps. And I'm looking forward to getting Andy on the show to talk about Lamps. And we'll talk about other stuff as well. This was a delight. Thank you to Amy. Thank you to Fred. Thank you to Rob Klein. What's the next one? We're going to talk about Neil Patrick Harris next and maybe roll it into... Lamps. Yeah. And we're going to talk about lamps as well.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast

But that's sort of my picture. And Maya has left. But this is the second departure of a cast member from Anne Golden Era.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast

Really? No, let's do what was the one you had that was close, Joram? Petty four. Petty four. It's petty four. Good luck remembering that next time, Joram. And now let's close it, as I promised, with the Bronx Beat take on sweetbreads.

And you're doing it with Fred. What bit does Fred do at Restless Leg? Is it different every night?

I had a real emotional pang in the best possible way because I also reached out to Fred this morning to ask him a question about something we're going to talk about. And he mentioned that he's with you guys for Restless Leg. And I do think it speaks to and Golden Era that the three of you are together. And soon, whenever they choose to join my fellow.

But Fred, are you really nailing it?

It's so I mean, everybody should watch Fred's special on Netflix stand up for drummers where you do the entire that you have the whole 50 states in that. Right, Fred?

Nothing's more frustrating when somebody as talented as Fred saying, like, but you know what it's like. You can do 200 different regional dialects. Who among us?

Hello, I'm Yorma. I just joined the podcast. Hi. You just want to introduce yourself. It's very strange. He's a member.

He does. He's a touring guy. Takes him back to the road. I don't know what Fred doesn't like. There's almost nothing that I would be... Yeah, complain about something. I bet he doesn't like roller coasters. I don't like roller coasters.

There is a roller coaster that goes from Dallas to Houston. Take it, Amy.

Yeah. And let me just thank you for joining us from what is very clearly an airport parking lot.

Hey, did you guys know support also comes from Coop? I did. There's a lot of different kinds of sleepers. Keef, tell me some of the kinds of sleepers off the top of your head.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Yeah. Well, we'll paste in your missing like, wait, who? When?

Every limb is different. Which way? The thing that's cool about starfish sleepers is if you, during the night, get a limb cut off, it grows back.

I will find my way onto my back, but that's why it's very nice for me to have the original adjustable pillow crescent because it's great for side or back. So wherever I end up, I'm very happy to be with my adjustable pillow crescent.

And the Cool Plus Adjustable has advanced cooling for side and back sleepers and proprietary cooling gel memory foam and microfiber blend.

Looking forward. With Coop U, you can build your perfect alignment by adding or removing fill. Take it in, put it out, make it just fit for you guys. I think I figured out the hack to getting a good night's sleep, and it starts with my adjustable pillows from Coop Sleep Goods. I really cannot recommend the Crescent. Enough. You spend a third of your life in bed, or in the case of Andy, two thirds.

Shouldn't you get a pillow that's customized to your sleep? I upgraded my pillows with Coop.

Another thing that happened your last week, Polar, is it was also Shoemakers last week.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast

And we did a surprise party for Shoemaker on the 17th floor. And do you remember how you almost blew the surprise party?

You do have a history of accidentally texting the person you mean to be talking about.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
There were a couple of things. I asked Shoemaker about it today. He said there were a couple. Because, by the way, the surprise party worked. And he said he was just maybe so emotionally overburdened that he could not pick up every missed clue because Higgins and I told him we were going to take him out to dinner. We went all the way downstairs. And then I said, oh, my God, I forgot my wallet.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
Do you guys mind going back up? And then Shoemaker, who just can't let anything go. I remember him yelling at me like, what do you mean you don't have your wallet? Then how do you have your ID? You're not going to be able to go back upstairs. And I was like, I keep my ID in a different pocket. He's like, since when do you keep your ID? Like just grilling me.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
My like last memory before surprise was being like this fucking guy can't let anything go. I'm shocked they went back up with you and that he wasn't like all this way down here. Well, we had Higgins. Aren't those the reasons you like him, though? Like he's a details guy. Yeah, I do.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Cookies w/ Amy Poehler
It is very funny when you lose your details guy. He must be so happy to see how shitty a surprise goes without him on the inside.

But there's one thing, Amy, that I was sort of very taken with. For whatever reason, the Hugh Laurie Bronx Beat is hard to find online.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast

That is so sweet. So then since we share our first show, Amy, I wonder if you remember the first ticket.

My grandfather, Grandpopo Vogelchek, came to this country with nothing. He was totally naked. He left his job as a foreigner so that he could build a better life for himself here. A country where he wouldn't punish people who were affectionate and kissy with their families. So yeah, I know it feels like a lot, but you know something? We're Vogelchecks.

Look, you're missing the point here, Bob. The point is Halloween spirit. The point is trick or treat. The point is, could you sign those papers? All right, okay.
