What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast.
Hey, what's up dudes? Andy's back. Andy's back. How was your vibe? Because we received some feedback that your vibe on the first show you were gone for, you came in really hot on the voice note and the second one was a little different.
I was unwell.
Yeah.
Why are listeners upset about Andy missing podcast episodes?
Yeah.
People noticed.
Yeah, crashed out.
Yeah. Here's what somebody said. Dude, someone needs to check in on him. Last week he was frothing with rage, and this week he sounds like he's looking at the churning blackness of the water as it crashes to the shore of the cliff you're standing on.
Yeah, I mean, I'm not bipolar, though. Is that what they're implying?
I don't know. They also then added that either that or he just woke up, which is, I mean, that means they really know you.
I was pretty run down. You know, summertime with the family, Seth. And Keeve, you know about this too. Sure. Yhorm would as well. Would he have been here? You know, sometimes it happens. I hold no grudges. I'm happy for Yhorm to miss the pod.
He said he might join.
Yeah. And if he does, that'd be great. And if not, it's okay.
No judge. No judge.
Yeah. But there are moments where it becomes too much and you break.
Yeah. I think it's a real reminder that... I'm sorry, buddy. There's a good example right now. Yeah. Yeah, there's a child right here who's a little upset with me. Can you just walk into frame and show him how you're crossing your arms at me? There he goes. Yeah. All right, now out you go. I got to do this. I'm sorry. I thought you were with your friends.
He's like, what friends, dad?
It's, you know what? It turns out when you're a dad, you know when your summer is? The winter.
Yeah.
Oh, that's right. And I'd be like, this is the best part of the day. Yeah. I had no idea.
Yeah. I didn't know. You realize, like, the thing that you want from the lion, the witch, and the wardrobe is just the door, that the wardrobe has a door. You're happy to sit in the closet. When I go to my office, I'm always like, ah. Hello, door. Hi. Hello, sweet friend. I'm allowed to close you.
Yes, yes.
And it's respected. It's a respected door. No one here treats it like a saloon door that you can just push open. Guns blazing. A respected door. Oh, my God. It's a respected door. Sorry. Can I just unload on you real quick, Andy? Everybody's really happy you're here, but I do feel like a lot of the comments were about your absence.
I would love to get unloaded on, and I mean that in any way you want to take it.
Andy, you recorded those voice notes on a good mic? You sounded really good on both, like audio quality-wise.
My brother was an iPhone voice note app.
Wow. Yeah. I was surprised you had gotten out a good mic to do them, but whatever you were doing, it was working for you. Thank you, my friend. See?
But it's going to be positive feedback, too. And remember... That's before I get dumped on. If you want to see Andy get unloaded on in person, just tell him you've watched Digman. Somebody wrote in Andy's job interview, if pod co-host was a real job. So to recap, you hate our industry. The one hour work week is going to be a problem. When you do show up, you'll complain about how much you hate the job. And you planned on spending most of the workday playing games on your phone.
Yeah, very apt. The only thing I would take issue with that is the one-hour work week. Yeah. Because I'm available, like, honestly, like 30 to 40 hours a week that others aren't.
The Venn diagram of the 40 hours a week we're all free, it's crazy how little overlap there is.
It's very difficult to parse. I think people have gotten that picture by now.
Somebody, in fact, wrote in this comment that made me laugh. This is definitely one of my top five podcasts about scheduling. Fair hit.
I didn't ask for this.
Somebody piggybacked on a comment. I always enjoy when two members of Quaid Army work in concert with each other. The first comment was, Andy not showing up for the podcast for the second week really pisses me off so much. I'm about to take my phone and throw it on the ground. And then the next person wrote in all caps,
