Chapter 1: What fun jingles have been sent for the podcast?
So, Keev, you noticed something, which is we've been receiving and not using some really fun different jingles for the pod.
Oh, yeah. Well, Greg Chun, who makes all our little jingles, sent me a few and I was delighted. But it was like a month ago and then I was surprised to see that they weren't used yet.
Well, I think, you know, maybe we thought it would be more fun to wait for you to be back. But for our listeners, this is a new little, what would you call it, an Easter egg, an earwig? What would you call this little amuse-bouche for the ears?
Yeah, that's definitely the first thing I would have said, an amuse-bouche for the ears.
So are you mad that I took it? Yeah, you snatched it right out of my mouth. I tried to think what would Keith say, and that was what popped into my head.
That's me.
Hey, Joram, what's up?
How do I sound? Do I sound all right?
Yeah. You sound great. I can't really wear them because they're reading, but I did join the glasses squad finally. Hey, brown hair glasses. Yeah.

Chapter 2: What memorable experiences did they have while making the album?
Third summer.
He really just outlined it really clearly for me. 2006 was Shoot Hot Rod. 2007 was Put Hot Rod Into Theaters. And 2008 is coming off Writer's Strike and then a few episodes. And then here we are in Encino, California.
When did you decide you were going to do the album that summer?
I think it was during the strike.
Okay.
But I don't know if that's true.
And then for a guy like me who's not in and has never been asked to join the music industry, are conversations happening during the writer's strike? Are people saying, hey, would you guys want to do this?
Well, Monty Lipman from Universal Republic hounding. He was hounding us. He was like, I love this. You guys got to release an album. We were like, no, no, no, no. We couldn't possibly. And just, you know, he was relentless.
Jorm's tone sounds sarcastic, but it's actually pretty much true. After Lazy Sunday and maybe Natalie Rap, somewhere in that first year, I think we already talked about this on the pod, that a few different labels, Atlantic came to us, and then it was under UMG. It was a wing of UMG. I don't know how you describe it, but Republic Records was under UMG. It is a huge record label.

Chapter 3: How did the recording process take shape in the house?
I didn't go for the record. Any highlights?
I think we already covered this. Okay. You should listen to the pod. I'll listen to that episode.
The good news is this, Jorm. If you'd gone, I also think you'd have no memory of it, based on the fact that you don't even remember the last conversation about it.
Chapter 4: What challenges did they face during the album's production?
What makes you think that, Bill? Or whatever your name is?
The only thing I really remembered was that there was a whole room that was English tea, like little sandwiches and cookies and proper English tea set up. And I was like, now this is class.
That was a highlight of your memories of the Playboy Mansion?
Yes. We definitely were like giggling and hiding in corners and stuff and being like, we shouldn't be here.
Afterwards, that A&R exec went back to the group and was like, I think that was the wrong place to take him. They really like the small tea sandwiches.
You mean because they giggled and hid the whole time and kept saying, let's look at the zoo.
Yeah. So to you guys, T&A is tea and apricot scones.
That's right. The tea is actual tea.
The tea is actual tea. You were so disappointed. You were like, T&A, I don't know what the A is, but I do love a warm cup of English breakfast.
