The McElroy brothers are not experts and their advice should never be followed.
Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it.
Also, this show isn't for kids, which I mentioned only so the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening.
What's up, you cool baby? One, two, three, four! It's the start of something beautiful
A small acquaintance has blossomed
It's rapping into a precious friendship
I could have never seen what was coming for me
Hangs at the skate park, hangs by the beach
My life, it feels like My life is all
It's better with you
Hello everybody, welcome to my brother, my brother, me and my ship from the moderate era
I'm your oldest brother, Justin McRoy, I'm walking on air
What a trap nation, I'm your middleest brother, Travis McRoy, Wolf, whoa
Hi, Travis McRoy, it's Griffin and Accroy, come with us.
You all thought he was done.
On our bus.
It smells weird, but not that you can put a finger on.
You guys, you were like-
To your cat-cact dictation.
You all at home were like,
oh yeah, the McRoy brothers now that Wonka's out, they saw it, they went, that's done.
Wonka's done.
Well, well, is it because it is, it's so great with as bad as the news is always.
Yes.
Yeah.
Every once in a while, a headline will pop up that's like, Hey, J-man, you do need to know about this one.
Yeah.
I am happy that the algorithm saw fit to to send this our way.
This Griffin, tell me about the Willy Wonka's chocolate experience in Glasgow.
Well, first of all, Justin, you fucking num scull.
It's not Willy Wonka's chocolate experience.
It's Willy's chocolate experience. Right.
The Willy featured in, the Willy featured
in this chocolate experience is not Willy Wonka and they cannot be any clearer about that. It's
Willy McDuff chocolate magnate. See, I thought it was will he chocolate experience because it's
the question of will you specifically me will Travis chocolate experience and the answer is no.
specifically me, will Travis Chocolate experience? And the answer is no.
Automations coming for us, okay?
Yeah.
It's coming for us.
I'm not gonna get, that's all I'm gonna say about that.
Except to say that oversight is overdue
and probably not gonna happen.
So I think it falls on us to determine
what is okay for AI to do.
Sure.
Swindling people, not it.
No, that's art.
Swindling people, yeah, that's, leave the swindling to the humans.
Yeah, only humans can really swindle.
Listen, AI can scam.
AI can scam.
You can scam.
It can hoodwink.
But it can't flimflam.
It can't flimflam.
Cannot flimflam. Fl can't flimflam. Cannot flimflam.
Flimflam is a human endeavor.
I'm gonna say, just to put this on the list,
I think videos of Will Smith eating spaghetti,
specifically only, specifically only,
and it can't be too good.
Okay, okay.
That's okay.
And coming up with Willie McDuff fan fiction,
Willie Wonka side chapters, extended cuts, absolutely.
You can go nuts with that, man.
Let it ride.
Don't do anything bad with it, but AI, silver approval.
Okay, that one's with, that one's AI's.
I think maybe there's people who don't follow
Wonka-based news as closely as we do.
Right, we've sort of run screaming into their house,
screaming about Wonka,
which they should be comfortable with at this point.
We've done it so many times.
They opened the door.
Like we don't make our podcast appear.
They clicked the button.
They said, come in, tell me whatever you want to.
Now, there was a event.
There was a lot of event held in Glasgow
and it was largely Wonka-based
and it was completely AI generated from the key art
which ended up sort of selling a bit of a false bill of goods,
visa, V, a world of pure imagination,
while also promising things like
carchy tones and exorcist or a day lollipops and a passive dice of sweet teats.
Sorry, I have.
Sorry, one more time.
What was that?
Go ahead and I can just wait.
What's that?
Allow me.
A passive diet of sweet teats.
Now, hey, I, are you drunk?
So the experience, the website is incredibly colorful.
The robots have done an excellent job.
And then, sure. Yeah, they've really captured Lisa Frank in a cage
and squeezed her weird blood out to make these images.
The problem is when they demonstrate the Twilight tunnel in this ad.
This is when the problems start to appear.
You see a tunnel lit with candles and that's very good and then Travis King. Are you able to make out what says there at the bottom?
Yes, so oh god, okay
mmm
lot
lighten
Dimity dim tight dim tight, uh-huh
These are different color palettes you can see
in the Twilight.
Just to walk you through,
all right, you guys don't really follow
AI stuff as closely as I do.
Let me walk you through sort of some of the heuristics
that this particular program was running through,
is that it wanted you to know what colors you were gonna see
when you went to this attraction
at the Willy Wonka Experience called Twilight Tunnel.
Right.
And so it provides a list of color palettes at the bottom,
which include labels like,
Dibractions and Ungrival.
And Impretty.
And Impretty.
And then underneath it says,
Uxpected Twits.
Yeah, then that one you'll see lots of Uxpected Twits.
Now this is.
Look out for the Angleman sounds.
This image is really the superstar there.
Oh boy.
Now describe this one for me, Travis.
So this is, if you combine the like ringleader MC Jude
from Mulan Rouge and one of the horrifying clockwork things
from the Madame Pompadour episode of Dr. Who? and one of the horrifying clockwork things
from the Madame Pompadour episode of Doctor Who. You've got that main guy there.
And there's a weird candy all around,
but the thing that gets me the most
is the image upon his giant lollipop stick.
What is that?
Because in one hand he has a cane,
okay, and the other hand a giant lily pop
He's two. He's double-fisting walking utensils here and on the lollipop appears to be a bat
We have what I can only describe as grown-up Vampirina. Yeah, that's also worth noting that the bear has a butt for
It doesn't have a front but that is
So I'm a I is so nasty a is so nasty. It's a trap.
So at the bottom, though, it promises some of the things.
My God. What can you tell me what we can expect?
Well, there's there's live performances.
There's. Yeah. OK.
There's I will say the M on performances does.
They did give that one extra home.
Yeah, there's a little jazz.
Just one. Cat- Cac-
Cac-a-sating
Carchy tunes. Yeah.
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha-
Exha- Exha- Exha- Exha- Exha- Yeah. It's all right there. This clearly was fed the paragraph that is presented to the right, which is written
with no typos.
And it's maybe sometimes they make the AI do this stuff too fast.
They're like, AI, I need pictures of Willy Wonka on my desk.
Pronto.
And it's like, pronto, okay.
I haven't finished booting up yet.
I haven't even read this whole thing.
Okay, let me get out my stenographer's keyboard.
Cack-a-tack-a-day, this is a cartridge on sweet teats.
They say sweet teats?
Fuck, they're gonna be so mad.
Wait, ah-ah-ah!
I don't have a backspace key.
They didn't program that one in.
Shoot.
I like that they fed it captivating entertainment.
And the AI was like, got it.
So at the top, the banner says, inshrining entertainment.
And then it just says, categating.
That's the problem.
It's cascitating.
The AI is drunk and playing telephone with God as well.
Okay, but that would be, if it was just that webpage,
we would all be,
don't worry.
We wouldn't be talking about it on the show.
Listen, we understand everybody's talking about this,
but there's so many layers deeper.
I feel like making typos is like the least hysterical thing
that happened here.
Well, the least hysterical thing that happened here
is many hardworking families were hoodwinked out
of their money, although apparently they have been
refunded that, but you blew at kids weekend afternoon with that.
So that's the thing.
I will tell you now as a parent,
getting the money back, amazing.
What you're not gonna get back
is all the questions that child has upon walking in
and you've been building up,
we're going to a chocolate experience
and then the child walks in and it's like,
oh man, this is actually, I can pinpoint now
when my childhood ended and it was right now. It's thank you Willie McDuff
Yeah, it's right here when you walk in and you see
Bit is a gigantic warehouse. Yeah, just has
Some scattered fake Willie Wonka decorations around it
We were trapped every kid there got a quarter cup of lemonade and a single jelly
beam. Yeah. Well, Juseph, can I read from the script? Because I could provide some context.
Oh, Griffin, yeah, I would love that. Thank you.
So there's a script that the AI wrote also for this experience, which the actors who performed here.
Can we go off our calves for a moment?
I've seen some images of the people forced to work
as Oompa Loompas, or I believe they would be called
this event, Jompa Lompas or whatever.
Like they do not, they're going through it.
They are tasting the ink of their acting degree
in their mouth as they work this event.
No one's having an awesome time here,
except for me reading the script,
because the AI wrote a script, okay?
I'm gonna just read a little excerpt of it.
Willie McDuff beckoning the guests inside.
Now, who among you dares to taste the fruits
of our imagination?
Step right up and prepare for a flavor adventure unlike any other.
The guests eagerly approach a table laden with the described sweets, each picking their choice
with a mix of excitement and trepidation.
Guest one, trying the soup flavored jelly bean.
It's like dinner in a dessert.
Astonishing.
Guest two, braving the boogerberry bean.
Oh wow, it's oddly gorgeous.
How is that possible?
Laughter and surprise exclamations fill the room
as the guests indulge in the whimsical treats.
This kicks ass.
Wait. Yes.
If we're gonna come up with a script for this experience
that provides lines to the audience of the experience,
that's some next level stuff, man.
Okay, I have some punch level stuff, man. Do they get the script ahead of time?
I have some punch up though on this line.
When you're worried about, for within these ancient walls,
lurks a tale not yet told of an evil chocolate maker
known only as the unknown.
Yes, the unknown is a villain.
The AI looked at it as like,
it's gotta have a villain in Willy Wonka.
That's the problem, it's not worth a villain in Willy Wonka. That's the problem, so let's pretend.
How about this, the unknown.
Then the next line.
Traff, please.
This fiendish foe has long coveted
one of my most cherished creations,
the anti-graffiti gobstopper.
The a marvel of confectionary science designed to aid oh not just any soul but the
tireless guardians of cleanliness are beloved mums and yes dads too but especially mums from
the endless scourge of dirty socks
strewn about by youthful adventures.
You know how when you think of graffiti,
you think of moms picking up dirty socks.
I did want to show, I have,
Trav just to give you a curious how that all worked out.
I do, let me check all these darn tabs.
That's a lot of tabs.
Wow.
Oh no.
Oh no.
Oh God no.
Describe the unknown please.
Describe the unknown.
The unknown is wearing horrifying metallic,
like one of those blank masks.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But it's metallic and with a wig that's seen some shit.
A wig, this is not this wig's first performance.
Travis, they live in the walls
of Willie McDuff's chocolate factory.
Can you cut them a break?
Yeah, but there's supposed to be a villain
and I immediately pity the unknown so much.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Sorry, there is a picture here that just get by of Pete Davidson and the unknown together on a walking date, which was quite nice.
That's great. We all love the unknown.
Trav, here's just a few more images from it.
My God.
It's like a wall with a picture of a candy house printed on it.
Okay, I want to talk about that for a second because I saw that image.
It's like one of those like AI generated,
screen printed, like backdrops,
step and repeat kind of thing.
And of all the other stuff that happened in this,
I want to give this one the benefit of the doubt
that they like myself ordered something online
without doing any research,
except the moment you're like, oh, that works,
and you order it.
And then that comes, there must have come a moment.
This thing is maybe 30% the scale it needed to be
to cover this wall.
So there must have been a point,
because the ALI so far can't tape things to walls.
There must have been a moment where there's-
Or, or, or, right, coherent,
Willy Wonka fan fiction.
So there must have come in a moment where human beings
pinned that to the wall, taped it to the wall,
took a step back and said,
are we just gonna leave it like that?
Is that, and we're, this is what we're doing.
This is it, right?
And we're just gonna let people in here still.
So here's what I'm excited about.
Yeah.
Willy's Chocolate Experience too.
They're gonna have worked out so much of this stuff.
Absolutely.
The next time they do it,
Willy McDuff will ride again.
Tanacon too, Firefest too, Willy.
Willy's Chocolate Experience of the Mind.
Ooh.
I do want to mention, I want to mention also in the script, and this is amazing, but in the script that the
computer made, it has cues for the audience too.
Yeah, I noticed that.
Yeah.
It has things like the audience chatter quiets down, their attention captured by the change
in Willy Wonka's tone
or Willie's tone and intriguing darkness ahead.
So that is what they have to do.
That's what the audience murmurs affirmatively, a mix of excitement and nervous anticipation
in the air.
Yeah, no, I mean, I brought this up earlier.
I think it's, I think maybe everybody receives a program like when you go to a Catholic church
and sometimes they're like, listen, we know you're not going to, you don't necessarily know how to rock with all this stuff.
We do like a ton, we do a ton of shit here.
You guys need to show up for rehearsal.
That's fine.
Yeah. They put it in bold.
So, you know, you know, you're not Willie McDuff or the unknown.
So you should know that all the other lines are basically going to fall on you.
There is a, there is a bubble in lemonade room.
That's why they get the lemonade in the script.
The script came up with bubble in lemonade room, which in the summertime is
My whole house. Yeah a bubble in lemonade room. I will say this about the way we won't experience
It still looks better than the aquarium in Austin. So we holy shit juice shots fired
fired shots fired at that former coals that is now a hospice facility
for very sick turtles and fish and sometimes lemurs. This is an aquarium that will let
you buy a bag of food for any animal you want and then not monitor what you do with that
food. It is less than one food. It It's just one food for all the animals?
Are you sure, Doc?
You can buy fish.
We're all carbon-based life forms at some point.
We're basically eating the same stuff.
You can buy fish to give to the birds,
then walk to the fish and put the fish in with the live fish.
No one is shitting.
No one gives a shit, man.
One time I saw a big turtle there upside down and I was like you're done
No one is ever going to get around to you my man
I had a mermaid doing face paint that I'm still not sure was an employee. Hell yeah one time
I saw Elsa there. What the fuck are you sure you know known animal per you know how that's the whole deal with Elsa
She hangs out with animals how that's the whole deal with Elsa she hangs out with
animals right that's her power listen I think AI maybe we look at we look at the
list of things that we are gonna allow AI to do as the AI adjudicators as the AI
oversight panel and say sort of coming up with ideas for small businesses and how
to execute those ideas is not on the list.
That's not good actually.
Yeah, we can mark that one off,
move on to the next one, midwifery.
We're gonna see how that one goes with AI.
Probably not so great.
Yeah, but you gotta test new stuff.
You do have to test it right, Trist.
This is the AI oversight panel.
We have to do that stuff.
I hate AI.
So the list is ongoing.
Will Smith Spaghetti,
harmless Willy Wonka fan fiction,
not Blue Sky Solution nearing how to run an aquarium.
Yeah. Right.
And probably not midwifery, but we'll check back on that.
This is an advice show still,
and our advice is to listen to our advice.
Yeah, whoa. Get him.
Whoa.
I invited a girl to go ice skating this Saturday,
but I do not know how to skate.
It's a childhood dream,
but I've never been able to realize it
because I live in a fucking desert.
I really want to impress her.
How do I learn to skate without access to ice until Saturday?
We're going at the earliest available session
at the ice rink that just opened.
That's Fibri off ice.
I... Fourth, that's a bad idea. session of the ice rig that just opened. That's for Bury off ice. I am fourth.
Yeah.
Bad idea.
Going ice skating in general is a bad.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Inviting someone on an ice skating date when you don't ice skate.
A swathe.
It's romantic.
I will say this.
It's romantic.
If you're someone who loves ice skating.
Cool, man.
Good for I'm so happy for you, this isn't for you.
I get it, my daughter, I saw this play out in real time
this winter, my seven year old was like, all I wanna do,
all I wanna do, daddy, let's go ice skating,
let's go ice skating, she said.
And so I took her ice skating.
She was on the ice for 0.5 seconds and said,
oh, I don't want to do this anymore.
Because once she got there,
she realized the inherent danger,
the unforgiving nature of ice.
Ice, yeah.
And just basically the steep, steep learning curve
that is ice skate.
Because in order to learn how to ice skate,
you kind of have to let go of your attachment to the mortal world. You have to convince yourself of like I don't care what happens to my
body for the next hour while I do this because even in a best case scenario and you don't fall down
you will not feel good afterwards. There are angles, joints, tendons you will use that you've never used before in your life.
Your body will cry out for relief.
I took Rachel on an ice skating date
for a wedding anniversary here in DC.
And we watch a ton of hockey.
And so like, part of me is like,
certainly through osmosis I will have picked up something.
But then I put those big boots on.
The knife boots.
The knife boots that stop at the wrong point on your leg
and then got out there and could not even stay upright
because of my little tiny sweet bird ankles that I've got.
And so then she just sort of did a few solo laps
while I watched from the sidelines like, you got it baby!
Woo!
And what will also happen is somehow
every other human being there
will fall into one or two categories,
either lightning, just zipping around,
flying past you, spinning you around
like some sort of goofy-esque cartoon character
trying to langus gate, or the other ones
who constantly seem to be hurling themselves
in front of you, making you have to avoid manslaughter.
There should be two rinks.
There should be two rinks and there's one for fast,
one for fast and one for falling.
Yeah, and if you go on the falling one,
you're gonna get run into a lot,
but if you run into anybody, it's okay,
because you're at the falling rank.
If they could set up somehow the equivalent of like bowling lane bumpers on the falling ring,
where there's ice, but there's also two feet of foam above it, that would be ideal for me.
This whole skating thing. Yeah, go off, King.
I will, thank you. The whole skating thing is nonsense. Thank you.
Here's the deal with skating, OK?
All skating.
All skating?
All skating.
Ice roller inline.
Skateboarding, because that's got attitude,
but every other kind of skating.
Also, I think you're probably more afraid of,
you're afraid of offending skateboarders
more than you are inline skaters.
Have you seen those guys?
Have you seen those fucking guys?
They're bad people, they're cool.
No, but here's the thing about it.
100 years ago, nothing was fun
and there wasn't anything that was fun, right?
If they had gone to the Wong K experience 100 years ago,
they would have been losing their mind.
They didn't have that, they didn't have TV,
they didn't have maybe radio,
but like they didn't have anything fun, right?
So if you wanted to do something fun,
like you could be just saying there like I'm gonna die
To do and someone's like well if you're extremely desperate
One dumbass thing you could do is put wheels on your feet and roll your ass down a hill
Yeah off that's not it. I don't want to do that. I'm not that desperate for fun
I got a phone and a TV. Yeah, two TVs if I'm not that desperate for fun. I got a phone and a TV. Maybe two TVs if I'm
allowed to brag for a moment. Skating is that is the only reason we came with skating is
we couldn't find anything fun. Same with bicycles. Okay. We have cars now. Don't need bicycles
anymore. Okay. Whoa. What else? Hey, Joseph, I'm really, I'm really good. Okay. No, no,
you had the point. You had the point. You maybe really, that one. I feel really good. Okay. No, no, you had the point.
You had the point.
You maybe stepped out of bounds.
We're going to have to bring you back in.
I'm not doing the classic Justin dig in.
I will, I will see that.
I got a little bit greedy.
I bikes, bikes are good.
I get the idea.
But like skating, it's just dangerous because nothing used to be fun.
And now things are fun.
So we don't need to skate it.
Back in the day, we had to do stuff to get brave for war. Yeah, like and skating is one of those. Yes
Skating is one of those things skating was invented by the government to make us brave for war
But I don't I don't that's not my reality and so I don't I
Don't feel good without the terra firma beneath these two pegs of mine.
I will also say a thing like ice skating
where there's numerous times in movies, TV, stories, books
where somebody falls through the ice
and that's a big dramatic point in a thing.
And then we see that and we think,
and you know what I wanna do on a date?
That, right?
No, it's hard to have a conversation,
get to know somebody on a day
when you're ice skating around and trying not to die.
Yeah, and holding hands for support.
Oops, no way, that's incredibly romantic.
I don't think this person needs to be reaffirmed
that they made a bad choice.
They're saying, look, I made a bad choice,
help me fix it, okay?
I said that thing about holding hands
and actually the last time I went ice skating,
I remember the thought that crossed my mind as soon as I was slip sliding away was no one touch me
I'm a big man my worries. I start going down. I'm pulling. Who's ever arm. I'm holding with absolutely
Going they're going with me or they're losing that arm. It's one of those two things the only
Gambit you have here, unfortunately,
I think is to fake sick on day-to-day text.
Can't do it.
Can't ice skate today.
I don't wanna go into it too deep, but.
You can also construct yourself a pretty sick assistant,
like get some PVC pipe.
Bro, what?
To help you skate?
Well, okay, I was going more with, like, a thing to help you stand up, but now this
might a robot, a skating robot, you say.
Let me hit you with this.
Let me hit you with this.
Even say it in the microphone, just mix it up.
Let me hit you with this.
Okay.
Peewee's Christmas special.
You are gonna step out there in your skates
and you're gonna have a big puffy coat
and a big hat on that is kind of covering up your appearance
and your date is gonna be like, you ready to go?
And you'd be like, oh, yep, hold on, I have toilet stuff.
And then you dip out and then a profession,
who's that coming out?
It's Michelle Kwan.
And Michelle Kwan is dressed in the same outfit you're wearing.
Yes.
Michelle Kwan does like everything, man, all of her classic shit.
And then skates off the ice and you have to have Michelle Kwan yell more toilet
stuff as she runs to the bathroom.
You come back out and it's you now.
Did I and and then and then they're like, wow, that's amazing.
And you're like, yeah, but I can't do it again.
Did I put the skates on the first time?
Before the first bathroom, did I put the skates on?
Because I'm really worried that even that's not going to be possible.
Like, I don't even know how to get to the bathroom.
You're saying you're going, you can't commute.
You can't.
Okay, hold on.
All right, hold on.
So juice is going to put on his skates.
Michelle Kwan at the end of her skit has to take off the skates and be like,
fuck trying to walk in these. No one can do it.
And then she threw her crown and she says, and these are two, these are perhaps six sizes too big for me anyway.
I don't know what I was thinking.
Yeah, that's cool. That could work.
You could have a big person pick you up and take you to the bathroom.
Um, and then that's, that's an option.
I'll probably carry you for, maybe get a sedan.
Do you guys ever think about the Nagano Olympics?
Where every, every other day.
Um, I had to look up her name because it was so cool, but, uh, her name was Suria Bonali.
I believe, uh, Bon maybe, where she was skating
and she was like, she biffed some of her moves
and she knew she wasn't gonna win, so she did a backflip.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and landed on one skate
and I'm pretty sure that's like illegal
and they were like, I can't do that.
Too cool.
Yeah, yeah, they're like, you can't do that,
but it was so cool, she was like, I know I'm not gonna win. So let me show you this cool thing I know't do that. Too cool. Yeah. Yeah, you can't do that. But it was so cool. She was like, I know I'm not going to win.
So let me show you this cool thing I know how to do.
Where are you allowed to do back flips in the world of sports?
It's kind of shitty if you can't do it.
I think it sucks.
Yeah.
If you can't do it.
If you do football or basketball or baseball, they get you for excessive
celebration.
Flipping.
Yeah.
Now, what if you, I mean, maybe if you were so mad that you did a back flip,
they wouldn't get you for it.
But I think even then it's going to be on sportsman like Condu.
Do you know they're getting, scientists think we're getting close to the Quinn
tuple.
People have, nobody's ever done a Quinn tuple in ice skating.
You do quadruple, you do triple and they're like, for a long time, they're like
human beings can not get the height and speed to do a Quinn tuple.
And now they're like, listen, they're getting real close.
We think they're gonna land the quintuple soon.
I watched Yuri on Ice and I got real into it
and I was looking up and watching videos of it.
It's very exciting stuff, guys.
It would be cool to accidentally do a sextuple
and then be like, I don't know how I,
I don't know what happened to me up there.
I think there may have been a bit of a small tornado
in the room that did pick me up
and make me do two extra spins.
I don't know how to do five, can't do five.
Can't do five.
You would get so dizzy.
I feel like if you did a quintuple,
you would black out from G-Force.
I think you would have to hover for a second.
There'd have to be a moment where people would be like,
huh, and then you come down just enough that they're like,
that didn't see, he seemed to freeze in air while he swung.
Oh, oh, land and roll.
You know what sucks about ice skating?
What, Griffin?
What, Griffin?
You can't do a-
Except for all the things we've already outlined.
You can't do a backflip and they'll say like,
no point, too cool, no points.
Yeah.
If I get out there and I jump in the air and I spin around five times
and land unconscious
or dead from the G forces,
I'm not going to win the gold medal for that.
There has to be.
That's bullshit.
I get that there's like a rubric
and you have to follow the rubric
even though sometimes they definitely don't
to keep things fair for everyone.
I think if someone gets out there and does a backflip
or does a quintuple and passes out
or dies from the g-force
You have to be able to come together as a judging panel and be like that's a gold
If we don't give that the gold medal like what are we all doing?
Here's what would be amazing if that if that became a
Stated on the books rule you would see somebody start their skate right and biff Biff, the first couple, like moves. And they're like, well, hey guys, pay attention
because I'm willing to bet he's going for it.
Yeah.
That would be great.
The commentators would be like, okay,
ooh, another blown lutz.
Do you think maybe this is the quintuple?
Do we got the quintuple coming up?
We see his family wildly just sing you like saying,
no, no, no.
No, don't put his mouth guard in.
He's going for it.
He's signed a DNR that his wife has signed.
All right, helmet on, let's do this.
Let's do this.
Everybody wet the ice.
Wait.
No one look, he can't do it if we're looking.
Everyone, avert your eyes from the ice.
He's calling for a Zamboni.
He wants a full Zamboni before he tries it again.
He's taking a bony time out.
We got a bony time out, break him in.
Can I suggest?
Does he ever do all the ice skaters
try to get away from one with the Zamboni?
Yeah, they did.
Oh, that would be cool. Wait, were the Zambonis chasing the iceamboni. Yeah, they did. Oh
Zamboni's chasing the ice. Yeah, it's like a game We're like one person has a Zamboni and there's a bunch of ice skaters and the Zamboni's trying to get the people
Yeah, just the only one welcome to Wild and Crazy Kids Olympics edition
Can't do you guys remember those toys like a fairy princess on a little stick and you would pull the rip cord
and her wings would spin around really fast
and she would fly up in the air like a helicopter.
Yeah, 100%.
Then it'd go into a fire and they'd start flying.
And sometimes go into a fire to light a nation.
Yeah, what if ice skaters could have long sort of wings
on their arms and then that way when they did a,
when they do a big spin in the air, anything is possible.
I think that once a skater knows they're gonna lose
and they're not worried about getting disqualified,
we should have like the equivalent of rodeo clowns
that come out and like maybe wrap a big string around them
as Gryffindor's suggesting and then pull as hard as they can
to get him to get him to get him to.
No, no, I'm not suggesting.
What? Oh, sorry, I thought you...
Hold on one second here.
I'm just saying we rev them up on like I thought you- Wait, hold on one second here. I'm just saying we rev a month.
I'm like a Hot Wheels track and we let him go.
Yeah, for sure.
Should we go to the money zone?
We just talked about ice skating-
A lot.
A long time.
A lot.
Let's go to the money zone.
It's better.
It's better with you.

Buttercup. Buttercup is a very good girl.com. But a lot of other stuff.

because I haven't updated it in like eight years
and I don't think it's the best showcase
for everything this fair space has to offer.
She's gonna make it go anywhere.
A lot of problematic content on Buttercup.
Well, she has big ideas, you know?
And sometimes the world's just not ready.
Yeah. She was the first person
to come up with Lux Maxing.
And listen, it's a problem.
I don't know what that is.
Don't, I don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't.

Who guests on Jordan Jesse Goh?
I mean, we could just list Pat Naswald, Kumael Nodjiani, Maria Bamford, whatever.
We couldn't remember all of them.
So we asked my kids.
Famous people.
How famous?
I don't know, pretty famous.
Really tiny celebrities who would go on this train wreck instead of a big talk show.
There's just a bunch of people on your show.
Jordan Jesse Goh, a comedy show for grownups.
Can we go to the wizard's house? It's at the top of a mountain in the clouds.
Yeah, I actually left my baseball glove there,
so that would be great.
You play baseball at the wizard?
Sometimes, yeah.
Well, I never had a strong father figure in my life.
And so it's just nice to play catch with someone
who is proud of me no matter what.
Yeah, and he can make the ball float telekinetically.
It's so cool.
And the ball screams the whole time.
The ball can scream.
Like please don't do this.
I used to be human and this wizard cursed me.
Yeah.
And he'll do it to you too once he grows tired of you.
Yeah.
Just funny stuff like that that he makes us say.
It is hysterical. Brian sent this in, thanks Brian. It that that he makes it say. It is hysterical.
Brian sent this in, thanks Brian.
It's how to compliment a song.
We've definitely talked about this before,
what to do when someone plays a song at you
and how to respond to that.
And now WikiHow is gonna get a hand on this ball.
Someone just sang or played you an amazing song
and you're absolutely awestruck.
But how do you tell them that?
How can you say that you would?
Oh, okay, so this is like the person is,
they are making the music,
not like putting a song on something
and saying, I just heard this song.
They are the music makers.
You are the dreamers of dreams.
Yes, they're not trying to find myself that way,
Justin, thank you though.
They're not trying to garden state you
in a hospital waiting room.
So these are some really helpful prompts dudes.
And you can all use this, there's so many,
it's exhaustive and exhausting.
I really like the melody.
Identify something praiseworthy in the song.
I loved when you changed the tone.
Dude, dude, that riff was incredible.
Oh, none of those sounds sincere.
Yeah. It might be sounds sincere. Yeah.
It might be your voice though, Griffin.
Dude, that riff was incredible.
Oh, that's better.
Do you know what about the melody again?
I loved when you changed the tone.
I really like the melody.
I think the melody is the worst one.
Yeah, the melody doesn't get,
the more specific you can get,
like the, I loved that four, five, one chord progression
that you did.
Was that a diminished, a D minor diminished nine?
I like the weird face you made when you hit that high note.
Yeah.
I'm so honored you shared this with me.
Thank the artist for sharing their song with you.
Don't do that.
You didn't have to share that.
Thank you for trusting me.
Yeah. That was so special.
I'm grateful I got to hear it.
That can be cool.
What a terrible way to go. Don't do that one.
Hey, thanks for sharing this with me.
That's something that, like, you would say after someone has trusted you
with, like, some kind of trauma
that's happened to them, not like,
hey, listen to this song I wrote,
like hey, that was very vulnerable of you.
To be willing to share that.
There's an undertone to that,
that's clearly not ready for primetime.
You're so brave.
So thank you for being brave enough to share that with me.
I really like it.
It's so important that we all have the confidence
to be terrible in front of our friends, and it means the world to me that you trust me with how. I really like it. It's so important that we all have the confidence to be terrible in front of our friends.
And it means the world to me.
Yeah.
That you trust me with how awful you were at that.
I feel like there's only one compliment
that is actually effective and meaningful.
And it's the one that you absolutely won't want to give.
Which is?
Which is, you gotta play another one.
Yeah.
You gotta play me something else. You gotta keep these good vibes going.
Now keep the party alive, man.
What are you doing?
Exactly.
If the next words out of your mouth aren't,
you gotta know more.
You gotta have another one for me.
They know exactly what the score is.
Like when my kids try the cake I made
and they're like, oh, delicious.
And I'm like, you want a piece?
They're like, nope.
Nope. I do not. You could also say like, oh, delicious. And I'm like, you want a piece? Like, nope. I do not.
You could also say like, Oh, you know, who's going to love this?
My uncle, who's a big time record producer.
Yes.
That's another compliment.
That's mean.
Why would you lie about the big time record producer uncle?
Oh no, I have an uncle who's a big time record producer.
Okay.
Then why don't my hit signal is my hit single party panda not a bigger smash?
Well, Justin, I told you that before that he listened to it
He heard it and he thought the world's not ready for it. He thinks that if you play party
That's the whole chorus the world's not ready for the party panda, but here he comes
The world's not ready for the party panda, but here he comes, irregardless.
That was the whole.
He agrees with you.
He's worried that if you unleash party panda on the world.
He gets it.
I was saying he gets it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, he said he listens to it on his own every day,
and everybody at his office at big time records loves it.
It's, and Juice, I heard from him, it's huge in Switzerland. It is blowing up the Swiss garage scene.
Like that is bizarre to me because of the third verse.
Which is just about his distrust of the Swiss.
Yeah, it was the irony.
All right.
Okay, that makes sense.
Hey, guys, you light up a room when you sing.
Express your admiration for the song and them.
That melody will brighten even the darkest rooms.
Want to play that at my wedding, room, you light up a room when you sing express your admiration for the song and them. That melody will brighten even the darkest rooms.
Want to play that?
Want to play that at my wedding because it could never rain with that sunshine.
Man, that's a big swing though, isn't it?
With some of these, if someone I know says this to me, I'm like looking for
sharp objects because we've got, I needed to fit myself against the
pod person.
There's not, this is not a good actor.
That's not a thing a human being says.
Yeah, this is not a people.
I like how it made the room physically brighter
when you did that.
It was a little bit dim in here and it,
I wanna play that at my wedding
because it could never rain with all of this sunshine
that you've made with your song.
I hate to listen to music.
Another one, no thank you.
No, I'm good. No, I heard it, but it was too bright in here
and I'd be blinded.
I don't know if you guys know this,
but I did get my degree in acting
from the University of Oklahoma Boomer Center.
I don't think I could deliver the line.
I want to play this song at my wedding
because it could never rain with that much sunshine line, I want to play this song at my wedding
because it could never rain with that much sunshine
in such a way that another human being would believe it,
let alone appreciate it.
No way, not in a million years.
I mean, also in the same way that I couldn't go to someone,
the way I am dressed right now and say,
hi, I'm tall Batman.
Right. I'm a new Batman who's very tall.
Like that's, it's not a thing that they could be,
that you can't deliver that line and convince them of it.
Thank you for writing my feelings.
Say how much you relate to the song.
No, no.
I couldn't have said, Travis, just Travis and Justin.
Yes.
Thank you.
I couldn't have said it better myself.
This will connect with so many people.
This song's about sandwiches.
Yeah, man.
You really summed up how much I fucking love sandwiches.
It's like I wrote it.
In fact, give me that guitar.
Yeah.
I'll be doing you for an emotional theft.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, so this is where we're starting
to get into the meat of it.
The way you convey emotion is incredible.
Mention the deeper undertones of the song.
This is predicated on those existing and you finding them.
But here's some quotes that you could just probably say
one of these two,
because I think any song falls into one
of these two categories.
I can feel your grief in the soft, slow pitch and repetition.
Oh, don't, no, no, no.
You literally sound like what I imagined happiness to sound like.
What?
You literally sound like what I imagine happiness to sound like?
Yes, yes.
Which implies that I've sat around and thought, what does happiness sound like? Yes, yes. Which implies that I've sat around and thought,
what does happiness sound like?
Which may be the most deranged thing.
I think it's a beautiful meditation, Trav.
I think it is a happiness thing.
What does happiness say things?
What does, I think it's a sense that it's a journey.
What does happiness sound like, you know?
The laughter make children and that song
by my friend, Jimmethy about the sky or whatever.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's got that one that's called,
No More Kim Trails.
And I feel like I wrote it because of all the message of it
and the core progression really,
it really explores his grief.
So impressed by you. Admire the artist's ability to write a song.
You continue to amaze me.
Is there anything you can't do?
Boring.
That beat is out of the world.
That beat is out of the world.
Yes.
Compliment a specific part of the song.
That melody at the end hit hard.
There's something so special about that bridge
that is definitely gonna get you, I mean, as a songwriter, I feel like I would appreciate that if you get very granular
and say something about how that ostinato was out of the world and very exciting.
I think one of the things of this article is not taking advantage of is the
power of the ellipses.
Hmm.
Because you could just say like, oh, that bridge.
Oh, yes.
Right.
And it's like, leave something to the imagination.
Yes.
Right.
They're going to fill that in.
Oh, the sound of happiness.
Again, though, we got another, another binary here because again again all songs fall into one of these categories.
You could say, the fast tempo has put me in the best mood.
Describe the mood of the song.
When an artist creates music they create expression and there's no better way to compliment their work than by complimenting that.
So two examples here.
Again, any song you should be able to use one of these two.
Girl, that low rhythm has me feeling so zen right now.
What?
That low rhythm?
That low rhythm?
What could a low rhythm be?
It's gonna be like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
I feel like I could run a marathon to that intense beat.
Yeah.
I mean, to be fair, I would rather run a marathon
to a low rhythm. An issue, though, fair, I would rather run a marathon to a low rhythm.
An issue, though, is if you're listening to a song
with like a good, I don't know, 105 BPM,
that's an edge case for either one of these.
Oh, you know what?
I have been going about this article all the wrong way,
judging it before I thought about what it's really
teaching me is the right way to compliment a song
someone has just played for me
in such a way that they'll never play another song
for me again.
I would never have to hear another song from your friend.
Because any one of these compliments,
I don't think that friend is coming back to you
for input and feedback on their art anymore.
You, you, okay, that's interesting.
I wonder if there's a way of doing it that's less mean
where it's like, that's the best song you
or anyone could ever write.
You gotta stop now while you are ahead.
This is the effect.
I think it's clearly being completely inept at music.
If I'm like, man, I love the low rhythm.
I thought the bridge really connected
the beginning and ending of the song.
I enjoyed all the arpeggios.
The number of notes used was impressive.
Was it odd or even?
Did you do an odd amount of notes or an even amount of notes?
Oh, good choice.
Perhaps it was Ketcha who said,
this song makes me want to fucking my car.
Yeah.
And that is the highest praise.
When I hear a song with a rhythm that low
and a four-four time signature,
I have to fucking my car.
I could waltz to that or fuck to it.
Nice work, bud.
One.
I want to waltz in my car.
I want to waltz you in my car. I want to waltz you in my car.
I want to waltz you in my car.
Hello, New Bop Alert.
Uplift an artist with an astonished gasp.
If you know the singer, be a little comedic
with your compliment.
Don't be comedic with your compliment.
Don't do that.
Don't do that.
Hello, is it time to call X Factor?
I don't know.
Is it time?
It's not on anymore. Is it time? It's probably not time to call X Factor? I don't know. Is it time? It's not on anymore.
Is it time?
It's probably not time to call X Factor.
So guess we know where the next hit has.
Well, I may get a question.
Why not?
Hello, time to call X Factor.
Hello, is it time to call X Factor?
I don't know, is it?
I'm asking you.
You're putting it on them at that point.
Guess we know where the next hit has been hiding.
In my mind?
Why have you been hiding this?
Hey, how come you're fucking hiding?
Why are you being so shady right now?
Why are you sharing your hit with the world?
That's bullshit, man, you're being selfish.
You knew I was depressed last week.
You could have played this sunshine for me then.
You waited till now?
What the fuck?
This fast tempo could have made me go crazy
when I was sad last week.
You knew I was fucking in my car last week
and I was doing it in an unmotivated manner,
laxidasically at best, and I called you and I said,
do you have anything, anything that could motivate me
to fucking my car better?
And you said, no not, but you told me
you've been working on this song for two weeks.
God damn it.
I got a horrible, horrible review on that website
I used to do that. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha played again, but slower. Play it again feels like a cheat to put on here. Cause like, yeah, obviously, but like that's, you've lost.
You lost the game. You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, in the best mood. Yeah, as you really lit up a room. Man.
Quick. Yes.
Talk about a beat out of the out of the world.
I want a munch.
Squad.
I want to munch alert.
Is a quick, quick alert.
This is an alert.
I just and sometimes these alerts are so you can act on this fast.
Sometimes it's so a million people don't email me. I'll let you guess about this one. It's not pizza.
It's cheetah. KFC is bringing the global bestseller to US menus for the first time, February 26th.
I'm sorry, Justin. I thought it was a reference to Jesus the way you said it the first time.
No, it's not Jesus. That's different. This is Chizza.
Okay. Starting February 26th for a limited time, KFC is introducing the international smash hit, the Chizza.
It's a hot, two, 100% white meat, extra crispy fried chicken fillets, topped with zesty marinara sauce, melty mozzarella cheese and crispy pepperoni.
We have to have talked about chizza before, right?
Yes, because it came from...
It's a chicken... Okay.
It came to us from the Philippines in 2015.
And it has been in a lot of different countries since then, including Korea, Taiwan, India,
Thailand, Germany, Spain, and Mexico, among other countries.
And now finally, it has been beta tested
for all those other beta countries.
And now we're bringing it home to the big dogs.
We are ready for the cheetah.
Let me tell you.
Let's see, fried chicken and pizza collaborated
to create something even better.
The cheese. I'm glad those two finally got together.
By the way, they've both,
they've had such huge and storied careers.
And I've been like, when are pizza and fried chicken
gonna collaborate?
And now I have.
According to Nick Chavez, the CMO of KFC US.
CMO KFC US, that's what it says.
CMO KFC US.
The fan favorite mashup is finally available in the US after making its way around
the world. Try it while you can, presumably until they are arrested. They turn a one store
in New York City, which it's labeled here as the pizza capital of the US, into a one
of a kind cheats area.
Yeah. If I ate one of these, I'd have cheats area for a week, man.
How long do you think the people at KFC went back and forth
about whether or not they felt comfortable calling New York City
the pizza capital of the world?
Oh, they had to definitely run.
They did some A.BB testing on that for sure.
So that is it.
Even then, you know there was somebody who was like,
it's gonna hurt the Chicago market, sir.
What are you guys, now, this is a really,
really good question for y'all.
I described the menu item to you.
How much will you pay for a regular cheetah?
