I founded Ornot in 2013. I think the best thing about Shopify is that we can practice business without technical skills. We can manage the company's background systems and front-end and sell online. If Shopify was a bicycle, it would be a bicycle itself. That way things are handled and our business is handled in Shopify. Start a free trial at shopify.com.

Well, the weekend's over,
so it's time to chat about it. Got a midget and a Jew, so why don't you sit down and listen to a dope podcast during lunch, dinner, or breakfast. Brad Williams and Adam Ray are here for you any time of the day. So come on and treat yourself right. It's about last night.
What was, like, your first toy you bought when you came into some dough?
The first toy was going into a Mercedes dealership in Encino, California.
Nice.
And I didn't know what I was doing, so I pointed to a coupe, a Mercedes coupe.
Yeah.
So I drove that off. I drove that for two days, but when the top came up, you basically had a plastic windshield for, like, $150,000, and I just felt trapped in it. So I dumped that and got a 420 SEL.
Yeah.
Beautiful Nazi black.
Beautiful.
30 feet long.
Beautiful Nazi black. That's like the worst thing to describe a beauty pageant contestant. I guess. I don't know. She's a beautiful Nazi black. She's wonderful. I liked it. We can do accents. This early? Sure. I'm just doing an impression of your sketch Germans who say nice
things.
Kevin
Vesek.
That was the thing I did with Carell. No matter how loud I did it, because it was Carell's thing, I would just try to match him. I'd be the first guy, just give it everything I can, and he would just go... Was there
somebody... See, now Brad's doing your German accent. Is there somebody else's that you did to get yours, or...?
Not really. I that was just kind of copying the rhythm of the you know, because it was just one line at a time.
Yeah. Yeah.
Nice. You know, the thing I've been playing around with, which I didn't think was that big a bit, but I was doing it this 20 seat club, basically 50
seats. Yeah.
And Kevin Pollak was there and I did a whole set. I was with my kids. And I just, for a while, have been playing around with the idea. You know, everyone has a Hitler joke, right? Did we talk about that last time? I don't think so. I don't think we did. I think in comedy, you need a Jesus joke, you need a Lincoln joke, and a Hitler joke.
I mean, that's kind of like the yin and yang.
You just, it's army issue. It's just like that. And I'm sure you guys have some version. Yeah. Yeah. My Hitler joke was like, all dictators have to have a charming side. So it was just charming Hitler. And so it's like, and I just totally liked the voice. You're just very fake. I'm telling you, one side haircut is fabulous. Him not never chase those jeans. So it was just Hitler being and then I took it to more like the other day we were talking about what to do with all these Jews and there was this awkward silence and you filled that gap. I love you so much. After this whole thing is over again, by the way, can you believe what actually doing it? That's the thing I love about Hitler, but that's why he'll be remembered way beyond anybody is because he actually had a plan.
