Jason Bateman 1:00
It explains a lot, doesn't it?
Unknown 1:02
Yeah. Now what happens now that it's out of your ass? Does that mean it's all downhill?

What happened? I got a nice candle from JB and Amanda. Oh, that's nice. With a beautiful card.

Jason Bateman 1:25
Three dollars. I could tell by the candle that JB had picked it.
Unknown 1:30
Yeah, exactly. It's, you know me, I like my candles and my soaps. And that candle right there from Jenny Kane is just about the tippest, toppiest. It's a two-wick candle. You know, three-wick, you can't really control the burn. You know, you're going to have a side that doesn't really keep up with the other side.
Jason Bateman 1:47
You're going to get a weak side.
Unknown 1:48
You're going to get a weak side on a three-wick burn. The wax is going to flood the other one and then you're screwed.
Sean Hayes 1:53
But with a two-wick.
Unknown 1:54
It's a metaphor for us. I'm a two-wick burn kind of guy.
Jason Bateman 1:57
Yeah.

Jason Bateman 2:40
Let me just say you will not complain. I will not what?

Jason Bateman 2:45

Jason Bateman 3:06
No. No, I tell them not to get me anything. I just want to hang out.

What lessons does Jon share about parenting and personal growth?

Jason Bateman 3:09
So I got to have them.
Unknown 3:10
I'm the same. Yeah, because I don't want people stressing about buying me something. I don't want anything.
Sean Hayes 3:15
I know, but people like to do it. I mean, we had this conversation ad nauseum.
Unknown 3:19
Right, but as long as you say no gifts, please, then at least it takes the pressure off.
Sean Hayes 3:24
Yeah. Yeah, but I always ignore that. I don't know. I learned at such an early age, you always show up with, even if you just go over to somebody's house to visit, you always show up with something. Uh-oh. You guys still there? Well, yeah.
Unknown 3:36
I'm just thinking about all the sweet treats you've always brought over.

Unknown 3:39
You know, you're never without at least a cookie. Right. Either for myself or for others. Uh-huh. Hey, I brought you this. Don't touch it.
Jason Bateman 3:48
Yeah. We had a great cake last night. Oh, my God. That cake.
Sean Hayes 3:53
I saw the photo. I was waiting for the guy to come out to say, do you want another piece? I know, I know. Like, nobody came out for a second piece?
Unknown 4:00
The guy.

How does Jon view the intersection of art and social issues in his work?

Unknown 4:01
The guy. They only cut up half of it?
Jason Bateman 4:03
Waiting for the guy. Were you waiting for Jen to say, can you have another piece?
Unknown 4:06
Yeah, yeah. Or somebody. I was like... Now, what type of cake was it? It wasn't the Rice Krispie one, was it?
Jason Bateman 4:12
No, no. It was a classic. It was a classic Duncan Hines yellow cake with chocolate frosting. But done in a way, it was box worthy.
Unknown 4:23
Did you bring your own hot fudge, you fucking shit pig?
