What is the significance of 'Just 2 Guyz' in The Lonely Island's history?

Unknown 0:00
It's the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast! Keeve, whoo! Here we are.
Akiva Schaffer 0:07
Okay, now I'm recording, Yorm.
Unknown 0:09
Hi.
Akiva Schaffer 0:09
Oh, yeah.
Unknown 0:10
Oh, Keeve! Hey, there you are.
Akiva Schaffer 0:12
Thanks for the energy, Yorm. That's awesome. No problem. Hey, guess what I'm eating, Keeve? Uh-oh, a burrito? From the same place or a different one?
Unknown 0:20
It's gonna be burrito brain.
Akiva Schaffer 0:21
You don't have to give them the promotion this time, but is it the same place or a new place?
Unknown 0:25
It's the same place. I'll give it up to Buddy's Burritos, Brooklyn.
Akiva Schaffer 0:28
It's the perfect name. Buddy's Burrito. If you want to get that burrito brain brain, go to Buddy's Burrito. We're here for you. Subscribe now for 10% off your Buddy Burrito brain. Just go in and yell island. Would that work? Yeah, I think so. Say chicken burrito slash island when you go into Buddy Burrito and you want a burrito brain. Stick it right in my head. That's pretty good ads. Yeah, I think so. All right, hi. So it's me and Jorm only. Finally. Andy is working on his movie. I don't know what Seth's doing. What's Seth's excuse? Do we know?
Unknown 1:01
I think he's on vacation or something. That's how I like to picture him.
Akiva Schaffer 1:03
Oh, must be nice. Yeah, those old February vacations. I get it. He's taking like a ski week or something.
Unknown 1:09
Yeah, I think we should post some pictures of him skiing, even if he's not on vacation. That sounds good. Yeah, but this is finally the two of us, and we're going to talk about Just Two Guys, right?
Akiva Schaffer 1:19
Yeah, it was suggested to us to do a Just Two Guys episode. We've already talked about it a teeny bit, Jorm, I think, in our early stuff, like the early episodes of this, but I don't know what we said, so we're just going to repeat ourselves. I think we just make a disclaimer that if we say something we already said, it just is what it is.
Unknown 1:37
It's not old age, guys. This is... Yeah, it is.
Akiva Schaffer 1:42
Well, it's been a couple years since we recorded that, so we don't even know what's going on.
Unknown 1:46
I mean, we're going to do some watchbacks, though, which we did not do last time, I don't think.
Akiva Schaffer 1:51
No, we certainly wouldn't have. So, Just You Guys is a video we made four of. What's a trilogy that's a quadrilogy?
Unknown 1:59
Quadrilogy, that's correct. Is it? All right.
Akiva Schaffer 2:02
And the first one was in 2004.
Unknown 2:04
Wait, what did they say for Fast and the Furious? Like, when you're up to, like, 10. Yeah, when it goes diamond. Like, there's got to be names for every single... Yeah, for sure.
Akiva Schaffer 2:12
They're good. They're working on it. That's so sick that Fast and Furious went diamond. Certified diamond. That's fucking dope. All right. Just two guys we made in 2004. And this was just for fun. Something we just made around the house. And we were channeling our 13-year-old selves.
Unknown 2:31
And we were, we were cooler than this at 13.
Akiva Schaffer 2:34
So I think, but the feeling we had inside, I guess for me, but I can only speak for me personally, for me personally, you know, at 13 is a little too old too. Cause I'm thinking of like seventh grade, which was 11 and 12. Yes. honestly, let's just say 13, your old self and the feelings, how I felt like I was and how I kind of vaguely feel if I see like a video, a home video of myself at that age, or the pictures.

How did the creators feel about revisiting 'Just 2 Guyz' after many years?

Unknown 3:00
I feel like you were always more judgmental of how you were in old home videos because we were friends at the time and we definitely have old like skate videos of the two of us hanging out. And granted, like we weren't the coolest guys in the world, but I feel like you're cooler than you're giving yourself credit for it.
Akiva Schaffer 3:17
Well, that's very nice. But again, no, it's like a manifestation of the insecurities I felt at the time and even thinking of myself now back at it. I can like bring back those feelings of just... I felt like I was... If I had acted like the Just Two Guys guys, it would have been a more honest representation, I think, of myself. But I was always... at least self-aware enough to try to put on a good face, put on a facade.
Unknown 3:44
It feels like the manifestation of how you felt when you talked to someone you liked. That's how I felt at 11 and 12. Freaks and Geeks was an exact replication of how I felt in those particular years of junior high.
