We're going to play a game. We're going to play a game off the top. You ready for the game?
Did you see who won Who Wants to be a Millionaire?
Who Wants to be a Millionaire?
Ben Affleck. Donated it all to charity.
I can't believe Who Wants to be a Millionaire is still a game. That was my favorite game of all time. That was probably the first game show I ever really watched.
Yeah, it was really good. I used to love it too, actually.
I think the all-time drop-a-mic moment... was when the guy on the million dollar question, do you know what I'm about to say? No. Okay, so the first guy who ever won who wants to be a millionaire. You know how you have three lifelines? Yep. Call a friend, 50-50, and one other one? Uh-huh.
Elimination.
Okay. On the million-dollar question.
Oh, that is 50-50. Sorry.
I can't think of the third. Oh, ask the audience. Yes. So on the last million-dollar question, he's like, phone a friend, calls his dad, and he goes, Dad, I'm about to be a millionaire. And then he answers the question right. He didn't ask the question. He called his dad to tell him he was about to win a million bucks.
You have to see. It's like you'll tear up a little bit. Hello. Hello, Tom. Yes. Hi, Regis Philbin here from Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. Hi. We've got your son John with us right now. He's doing pretty well. Good. He's won a half million dollars. Wow. And he's going for a million dollars. And he needs your help to get there Okay, he's gonna come on the line read a question for possible answers. One of them is the right answer and The next voice you hear will be John's John. You've got 30 seconds starts right now Hi dad, hi And I really need your help.
I just wanted to let you know that I'm gonna win the million dollars.
I
Because the U.S. president appeared on Laugh-In as Richard Nixon.
That's my final answer. Well, my God. What can I say except maybe you'll go into Paris and this is the final answer heard all around the world. He's won a million dollars.
If it happened in today's day and age, it would be an all-time power moment.
That is the cutest thing ever. What did the dad say?
It was just an amazing moment. We should run the clip.
Yeah. I'm also very obsessed with watching people on The Voice. Those make me cry sometimes. Me too. Just like it's a high school janitor and he goes out there and he gets a standing ovation.
It's just... Do you know that's my number one most watched thing on YouTube is America's Got Talent auditions?
No, I did not know that.
Huge fan.
Me as well when I was like 12.
Up until probably three years ago, up until Bubba came along, so maybe two years ago, that was, I would love to, those golden buzzers, amazing moments.
We have Jenny in the office again today, guys. Hi, Jenny.
Okay, but on the game. I have a game I want to play.
Okay, what is it?
Okay. It's called underrated, overrated, or equally rated.
Accurately rated?
Accurately rated.
Okay.
Car washes. Getting your car cleaned.
Oh, okay. Accurately rated. People love it. Yeah. That's why they have memberships.
I may say underrated. We got our car cleaned for the first time in four months.
Detailed.
Oh, was it detailed?
We got it detailed.
Okay. Oh my goodness. It's like a new car. I can't believe it. Like, it puts a pop in my step when I get in the car now.
But I hate to do this to you.
Yeah?
You don't take as much ownership in the car as I'd like you to.
Well, I mean... It's your car. Who bought the car? Who bought the car?
Me.
Yeah, look at that.
I want to get a non-car seat car. Yes. I'm really obsessed with getting a four-door Jeep Wrangler that we can just do the parents in. Okay. And then we can take, like, we can't pick up our neighbors.
I'm a huge proponent of being a one-car family. A huge proponent of it.
You love it because it's very urban living of us. And do you know what's crazy? Most of our friends share a car. It's very Austin.
Well, no, I think it's very new age. You very rarely need two cars in today's day and age, given work from home.
People in Oklahoma City are not sharing cars.
And given Uber.
People in New York City are very much sharing cars.
