Listener Q&A Episode 2
Are you going to make merch? I feel as though we haven't put any thought into this.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
And did you gentlemen listen to the previous pod? You weren't on it. I sure did. It was a treat. I loved it.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
We'll get a little better at it. So every year, we have this fantasy football draft. And every year at the fantasy football draft, Josh makes a song. And it's about every dude and sort of their year. Oh, man. And so when we started Family Trips, I said, you should finish every episode by, yeah, weird-allying a song based on something that was in the pod.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
He sort of pulls out something and he writes a song. And we realized... And even we wrote an email saying, hey, we appreciate that when you are a guest on a podcast, you don't listen to the whole podcast, but here is your song. And so I'm glad you guys both got them.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Yeah, my brother-in-law souffle his eggs. I should start calling him Souffy. All right. Here's a question for Betsy. When I was watching Here I Go, something felt familiar about the lyrics. And I realized the lines. It's called having a cake and eating it too. I bake the cake. I hate the cake. Reminded me of one, cut a hole in the box. Two, put your junk in the box.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Three, make her open the box from taking the box. Do you like that kind of tight repetition in songs? Or is my little monkey brain just desperately seeking out patterns?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Beth had a similar observation from a different part of the song. Love the pod, especially how you all say you love each other at the end of each episode. That's very easy. We do love each other. I listened to Here I Go at least five times today and noticed the tune on the line, I'll report you to the cops is very similar to the tune on It's My Dick in a Box.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Was that a purposeful throwback or is it just the perfect tune rhythm for a comedic moment?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
One thing I didn't see coming, as you were talking about, sometimes I have similar moves, was you all of a sudden inventing a brand new character.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I like when therapy language permeates down to the people who never went to therapy. Somewhere, someone was told by their therapist, like they have to own their bad decisions and then eventually reach people that are never going to therapy and they're stealing it. And I do own that.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I'm blown away by this breakthrough new character. And now I'm gonna go to an old character that I feel like was really, this is, all right, that was outside of the comfort zone that I know Andy from. Inside is Griff Banks. Someone wrote, is it true that Lorne once won an arm wrestling contest against Andy to cut Griff Banks the sensitive bullet?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
He just got it. I like that comment, though. You can see a group being sensitive bully on YouTube. We did it as a second.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I like the idea that somebody's like, Andy's really mad about it. And Lauren just starts unbuttoning his shirt. And he's like, send him in.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
You can, yes. Which we haven't done many times, but a couple of times, great acclaim with cut Andy sketches. Want to come with?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
And we did during the pandemic, we did Unicorn. Ah, yes. Yeah. We have voice notes as well. Oh, cool. Just from listeners? This is from a listener. We had some listeners calling. Great. Cool.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Hey, Jada here from the East Bay. I was exposed to you guys in elementary school and have been a big fan ever since. But that resulted in a few instances of me telling teachers I need to take a jizz because I thought it meant pee. So thanks for making me grow up weird. Also, my most prized possession is a turtleneck and chain vinyl that I have signed by Yorma.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
So Andy and Keeve, when can you guys complete it? Maybe on the next tour? Seth, you can sign it too, I guess.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
This part definitely cut out. I would just like to leave in Jorm saying we can cut this out and then me just confirming how happy I am that we're cutting it out. All right, I'm back in business.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Seth's card is no longer full. Three shot jocks back on the scene. I had a little technical glitch and ate up three minutes of Andy's day and he went pretty hard. To be fair, you waited 90 seconds before you started laying into me.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Right before we started, Jorm was talking about, not to tell you guys when we're recording this, how he has to go Christmas shopping. And he's going to a place called Mr. Mops. Correct. And Andy knew what that was, and I obviously did not.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Another new guy. It's a new character workshop. So my whole family, while I'm doing this with you gentlemen, is horseback riding. They're making memories. See? I'm sorry.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I was just going to say, though, I'm so relieved that I'm here. Right, yeah. You know, there are many things my family could be doing right now where I would feel bad that I was doing this instead, but not being on a horse right now is bringing me joy.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Here's one. I actually weirdly don't feel like I know the answer to this, and I'm ashamed. Okay. Question on bleeping songs in the broadcast. Does the studio audience hear the unbleeped version live, even though a bleeped version goes out on air?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
No way around it. Here I go. I did notice that the uncensored version now has more views.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I believe so, despite the incredible head start that the broadcast version has.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Comedy-wise, I don't think it matters. Musically-wise, it's so much better.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Because I will double down on that when you hear a beep in a song, you're basically, your brain is saying the word, but it just sounds less pleasant.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Yeah, sweet brain. Tapper, by the way, Dartmouth, which is why he sounded like a fucking caveman. Yeah, a lot of grunts, a lot of grunting.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Well, I would just say Lincoln Llama and the Showgirl has come up recently because it falsely was attributed to something that I had come up with, which is very not true. It has been around forever. It made me very happy every time I wrote something that took place backstage to know that they would go get Lincoln Llama and a Showgirl. And I just think, I wish I could say whose idea it was.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
It is the very funny trio of things to put backstage to hint at a sketch that is about to come. And it screams live showbiz. What year did it start getting implemented?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I believe 70s, but I will now have to go back and get that proper answer.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
And then do you guys ever get approached and don't remember what it is?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
So I make a lot of content these days, guys. And so just based on four monologues a week, sometimes people will reference a joke that I've told recently and I have no idea what they're talking about.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Yeah. In re-watching Hot Rod, I noticed that the front man of the band playing at Rod's final big stunt was Josh Homme. How did the Queens of the Stone Age cameo come about and why did this discussion not make it into the two-part episode about the movie?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Hey, this is not a Modern SNL rewatch podcast. I will say the holiday joke swap between Che and Jost this year was really something to see. They were going hard. I had a dumb grin on my face the whole time. I felt as though I was also falling off a building.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
He did an Eagles of Death Metal song and a Queens song. No, maybe it wasn't Queens. Maybe it was Eagles. Eagles is so funny. Obviously, I knew it was Eagles of Death Metal. It would be so funny if Akiva had directed an Eagles. Yeah, that would have been way weirder. Just late era Eagles. Saw a dick in a box and were like, hey, we got to get that guy, man. That's funny. You know what we should do?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
More comedy. I went to an Eagles concert at Madison Square Garden with Alexi and her dad, who loves the Eagles. And it was a wonderful show because it was chronological. And they kept bringing out band members as they joined the band. We'd come out and they told a lot of stories about the songs. And then it was late in the night and it was into sort of new stuff.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
And halfway through a show, I said to Alexi, hey, should we get out of here just to beat the rush? And she was like, you want to leave now? And I was like, yeah. Why? Why? What's wrong about now? She said, this is the song we walk down the aisle to.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I'm yorming it. Guys, there was a lot going on at our wedding.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I can give you a hint. It was by the Baja Boys.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Actually, with that crowd, it would have done quite well. I have a question. If you had to walk down the aisle to a Lonely Island song, what song would you have walked down to?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
No, it's got to be one of yours. Yeah, one of us screaming.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I would... Not that anybody asked me. I think I would walk down the aisle to I Wish It Would Rain. Oh, my God. That would be... I love how much you love I Wish It Would Rain. I'm so excited to get to it.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Oh, yeah. You would do the moves as they called them out. Yeah. And obviously the look. You have to dress that way, right?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
All right. Because we received so many wonderful questions and boys notes, we're going to actually roll this into a two-part podcast. So join us for part two. And the first question we're going to answer is this. I recently watched Seth's special on HBO. And after watching it, I'm curious, whose Swedish chef impression is better, Andy or Seth's? Can I answer that one?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I thought so. I think it's a really good question, and I'm very excited to get into the rankle. Okay, but I get to be the tiebreaker. Okay, great. All right, I love you guys. Love you, buddy. Love you.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I texted them together and said, that was incredible. That was the most incredible six minutes of television. And both of them wrote back in a way that made it clear they were haunted by the experience. It wasn't, it wasn't ha ha. Yeah, man. How rad was that? Joe said, my heart is still pounding. And it was a full day and a half later.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Who's the top 10? Some things that people said in the very brief early YouTube comments about the Criterion episode is that, one, not only am I failing to stop saying I should note, both Shur and Tapper say it a ton, too. So it was a real, it was really devastating.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I think verbally I have maybe adopted more of Schur's verbal mannerisms than maybe anyone outside of Neil Brennan. And the two of them were writing partners, so maybe they also co-mingled. But I think I get a lot of stuff from Schur.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Yeah. And you spent plenty of time with Schur, so obviously it's on me that if he was the one I got it from, I obviously could have fought a little bit harder.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Okay. And Mr. Mops sells stuff other than mops?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
We'll just talk to him for hours until he does it and then be like, fuck. I have some questions about the results of that podcast, but a few other little housekeeping things. We got a lovely text from Kristen Wiig, who was on a long flight, and she said she was enjoying the pod. And it was very necessary because she also told us a person in her vicinity was farting a lot.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
So you know she's telling the truth then.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I don't think she'd make it up. She said, and correct me if I'm wrong, she said one was so bad she said out loud, come on. No, that's what I said that I've done. Oh, you said it. Okay, gotcha.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Yeah. They sell no mops, which is really a false advertising.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Also, we got a very special photo from another friend of the pod, Jon Hamm, who definitely is going to come on when we do his episode. Have to.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Yeah. Because it's really good. He sent us a photo of himself in the best look in the world.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
And he looked great. He looked really good. I should note, it was saved for work. Jimmy Cap was not crowning. Nope. Like a newborn.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
It looked like a photo that could very easily be in a GQ fashion spread. It really did. He looked hot.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
The fact that he elevated best look in the world is a real.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Best look in the world may have raced into the culture had it been ham from the beginning.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Every day is leg day. I get the sense. So there was a consensus six that entered criterion.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Lazy Sunday, Natalie's rap, dear sister, I ran so far, dick in a box. There was a consensus five.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Somebody made an interesting point about laser cats that was actually pretty convincing to me, which is that all seven laser cats should go in as one. Yes. Is that allowed? I don't know if Criterion specifically did, for example, the films of Bruce Lee, but it wouldn't bother you. Whereas one individual Bruce Lee movie might be a tough sell. But I think the actual complete seven.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
And Andy, you've said in order for it to be Criterion, you feel like it has to enter the culture. Right. And I feel as though collectively the laser cats did.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Well, you still haven't said anything about what Mr. Mops is, but sure. It's a toy store. Okay.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I'm willing, and I think we all agree, I'm not the biggest fan of LaserCats. I'm willing to throw it right in there. But can I say something?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Hey, the podcast hasn't started yet, but there was a little chitchat before it did. And since the podcast started now, I have a question for Jorma and Andy.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Yes. I did a bad job in the moment. Both Jake and Mike said yes, yes. I failed to point out that the Mirror did not have a vote total from the outside world.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
So based on that, I think Mirror very happily lands in Kim's video, right? Definitely.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
It didn't seem like they had just rewatched it. I think who has benefited the most from the pod, Roy Rules and People Getting Punched, which both received a plurality of the votes from our listeners.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Yeah. I think everybody agrees. Then Kim's video, Doppelganger, Roy Rules, The Mirror, Hero's Song, Best Look in the World, Andy's Dad, people getting punched. That's a nice tier of enjoyable whimsy.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Can I say something though? Why Doppelganger in there? I think again, Kim's video just implies, hey man, this is a cool thing.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Name your price. And we could grease some palms and get some mops. Now in Berkeley, if you want a mop, you go to a place called Toy Masters, right? Correct. Correct. That's classic Berkeley stuff. It's like Iceland, Greenland. You got to throw people off the scent. It's classic Iceland, Greenland. Happy holidays, you guys. Happy holidays to you, Seth Lee.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Was it VHSs? Were you guys getting VHSs or DVDs? Yeah, VHSs and then DVDs. When I first moved to New York, it was a lot of VHSs. And there was a time it was hard to find British crime dramas.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I will say it really requires hardcore punk to not be at least entertained by the fact a six-year-old was buying his own album. Oh, he was so, he hated it. Because it seems like that guy says, this is fucking kid stuff all the time. But do you say it to an actual kid? I guess the question. If you're hardcore punk.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Movie stores were never as cool as music stores. That's true. With that said, it was the coolest video store I'd ever been in. Yeah. That telltale thing I loved is the handwritten sign of staff picks. Different names of different people who picked their stuff.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
The staff picks at Blockbuster was Roadhouse.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Staff picks at Blockbuster would be Notting Hill. The Shaggy Dog. So you were waiting for him to get it right.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
I'm just worried. I am so loath to say the Shaggy Dog, lest Jorm once again describe what your office looked like. It's fair.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Listener questions. Yeah, let's get to it. This is a speed round. We have some hyper-specific questions. These are ones we just get a lot. Will the Lonely Island tour again? I'm going to say yes. Andy is going to say no. I'm going to say hopefully, but no plans. Okay, great. Who is your dream guest for a short or someone you wanted to work with but didn't? Eminem.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
We should clarify the reason that Akiva is not here today is that, due to a mix-up, he thought he was picking up Jorm in Finland. He did. I didn't tell him. I didn't tell him. But ketos to Akiva for trying so hard. And apologies, I guess. Andeksi. I'm sorry. Happy holidays to you guys. Happy holidays to Akiva. We look forward to getting him back. Happy holidays to our listeners.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Will you guys do an episode on Popstar, Palm Springs, your albums or sketches you did before SNL?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
So I think that is very positive feedback from you guys on that.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
How do you decide who sings raps which parts? I'm sorry, what? How do you split up the parts in a three-part song?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Can I tell you my favorite evenly split Lonely Island song, which we'll get to one day? Sure. Diaper Money.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Wonderful heightening. Not to get ahead of ourselves, but everything about it.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Well, also everything that's true about diaper money is more true now.
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
Hey, what's the deal with Yorm Dances?
The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast
Listener Q&A Episode 2
of me dancing in front of bands and being embarrassing, and then deeply shocked just checking on YouTube, secret SNL tape, Yorm dances to Death Cab. Almost a million views. Oh, they're funny. Seems weird. Well, wait, Seth, have you seen the one where I'm dancing to Gaga?
