In short

The hosts (Eric Andre and Bobby Lee) process the death of their friend Oliver Tree, then pivot into birthday chaos, gift-giving and collectibles, health scares, and a long riff on “simulation” theories. They also discuss hobbies (distressing shirts), stand-up performance, and inventing/merging concepts (including a “bad friends” frozen pizza idea). They end with game talk (UNO tactics and royalties for invented games) and a brief comedy-industry backstory.

Guests

No separate guests appear. The episode is a conversation between Eric Andre and Bobby Lee (with recurring mentions of “Bob,” “Andrew,” and “McCone,” but not additional interview guests).

Guest backgrounds (mentioned)

Oliver Tree (dear friend; will appear on “Bad Game Show” later). “Professor Pizza” is referenced as a collaborator for a frozen pizza concept. Merle Robbins (UNO inventor) and Leslie Scott (Jenga inventor) are discussed historically.

Key claims

The hosts claim they’re living in a simulation; that random encounters (Toronto/Chicago) were “fans” or orchestrated; and that UNO is skill-based, not luck.

Notable examples

A graded Japanese red-vinyl record gift (later revealed as a cheap Amazon copy); ocular migraine and “going blind” story; silent “target ad” style dancing; restaurant with no menu; UNO “mind games”; “bad friends” pizza mashup (tavern-style + deep dish).

You have the options to do that with Klarna and they have value transparency and control without any surprises. This is the problem nowadays with these payment apps. A lot of people are like, they throw something at you that looks big and good and then they hook you and they do the bait and switch. but Klarna does not do that.

Cause I know this is what happens.

25:15Bobby Lee:It's happened to him before, he knows.

25:16Andrew Santino:I did it, yeah. And my parents were too weak. What you do is this, right? You let them leave. Yeah. And so I left, I packed all my stuff as a kid. Me too. I go, daddy, mommy, I'm gonna go leave home. Now come back. And my dad was like, okay, go. I made it to the driveway and I cried and I ran back inside, right? you don't do that you lock the door lock change yeah yeah you change the locks you lock the doors yeah you give it a week see i never do it again i say lock the doors yeah change the locks call the police if they try to come back yeah this is this is someone as a bne because what it teaches them is strength yep you know and that's why i've been able to win uno so in the house i'm sorry i like it no i uno king babe i'm gonna show you some photos i have that i have how many games of uno you won in a row i'm four in a row right now dude wow yeah and i'm gonna just show you and i've been trolling anyone that plays uno with me i troll them with this and this says uno king four in a row four in a row four in a row guys okay and um i play with me my girlfriend honey jules and her sister isa do you ever let your girlfriend win i say i help her but i sabotage her you do That's smart.

26:35Andrew Santino:Yeah, I play mind games.

26:37Bobby Lee:That's good. Yeah. Equal rights, man. If we wanna be equal, we gotta play it up.

26:42Andrew Santino:For instance, if I'm sitting next to my girlfriend and she wants a plus four of me, I look her right at her and I go, didn't we have a nice dinner tonight? Oh, you manipulate. I manipulate. Smart. I look at Honey. She's weak, yeah. No? She's weak. Okay. And you know, like those mystery cards. You know what I mean? I always, whenever she looks at me, like exchange your hand with my hand i'll go like this right and she won't do it good you know i mean smart that dude yeah yeah so when i play uno i use mind games i use mind games and um manipulation manipulation and power power yeah yeah yeah and bullying good yeah yeah that's how

27:24Bobby Lee:uno was that's what it was meant to do i mean bring up uno when did uno start i gotta tell you I bet the origins of this were using the same tactics that Bobby's using to win this game. Yeah. Uno was invented in 71 by Merle Robbins, a barber from Reading, Ohio, created the game in his kitchen table to resolve an argument with his son about the rules of Crazy Eights.

27:43Andrew Santino:Yep.

27:43Bobby Lee:Original decks were the Robbins family. That's crazy. So it was another game they were fighting over to make a new game.

27:49Andrew Santino:Anyone that says that Uno is pure luck is out of their minds. There is skill involved. Tactics. It's tactics. Tactics. It's tactics. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's using what you have. It's what you have. Oh, he died, huh? Yeah, he died. And God bless you, Merle. What a great game. Great game, bud. Yeah. Merle Robbins. What a great game. And he probably made a good chunk out of that game. You think? No, this is one of those things I bet you he never made a lot of money.

28:14Bobby Lee:You know these stories where they're like, you know, like the chick who did the Nike swoosh? They gave her$35. That was what it was. And then he gave her a bunch of stock, but the stock wasn't worth.

28:24Andrew Santino:Oh, wait. Did make money. I know. Right.

28:27Bobby Lee:sold the game for$50 ,000 up front plus a royalty of 10 cents per game sold. Oh, that's good then. That is really good. That's good. Well, let's see this. Google about how many decks of Uno have been sold since its inception. I'd like to know. I want to know. I mean, I want to know how much Merle made.

28:46Andrew Santino:Yeah, 10 cents was low.

28:49Bobby Lee:500 million decks? 500 million decks. Times 10 cents. Was it 10 cents? Is that what it was? Yes. A dollar.

28:57Andrew Santino:He got fucked He got fucked I mean he probably didn't know inflation was going to be what it was He had no idea He had no idea But I would have done a dollar instinctually You know what I mean? Highball it Jenga, what do they sell it for? Let's go Jenga Who made Jenga? Who made Jenga? And what do they sell it for?

29:13Bobby Lee:And now I'm telling you Jenga I'll get you every day

29:16Andrew Santino:Yeah, yeah

29:16Bobby Lee:Oh, invented by British board Gazane

29:18Andrew Santino:It's a great Quentin Tarantino movie Oh fuck You'll get it It's a great Tarantino movie anyway Jenga Unchained yeah cut that out

29:28Bobby Lee:I'll leave it in Jenga unblocked Leslie Scott in the early 1970s developed the game for a wooden from a wooden block stacking actively her family played in Ghana West Africa

29:41Andrew Santino:Scott introduced the game in London Toy Fair in 1983

29:43Bobby Lee:it originally came with mosquito nets included in the Jenga set sold millions of copies they launched at the London Toy Fair what do we have a toy fair still is the los angeles toy fair still a thing we should go no but let's see 1986 okay

29:59Andrew Santino:it brought to 96 sold millions of copies or what so how much let's see how much did leslie scott make from jenga can we yeah i want to know how much did leslie scott yeah make from jenga michael scott's uh first love how much did she make five cents per every ten dollars in sales so 20 royalty

30:19Bobby Lee:rate on the game that's really good she wants upward so how many what no no it says it says scott's initial licensing agreement is not highly lucrative in the beginning and she once owed upwards of 238 000 early debt before it became a global phenomenon then i'm sure after the fact she worked it worked out just fine okay because the super super soaker guy the black guy that

30:40Andrew Santino:invented that got stolen that got stolen from him yeah yeah yeah i don't like that you know i don't like i don't like it at all well what are you gonna do well he didn't he get some money back

30:49Bobby Lee:from we looked that up remember yeah yeah yeah yeah but anyone that invents a game that's like

30:53Andrew Santino:cultural and you know they should reap the rewards but these gigantic companies gobble them up well yeah in the beginning they're like great idea bud we'll give you 10 cents a game and that sounds pretty good yeah no it doesn't no but at the time you go dad oh my god in 68 1968 yeah right yeah But right now, you invented a game. Yeah, I did. Yeah, I'm Mattel. Oh, hi. Hi, I'm Dr. Mattel. Well, I'm Dr.

31:22Bobby Lee:Mattel. Yeah, hello, hello. I know that you love the game. I love the game. And it's called Catch Him While You Can. Catch Him While You Can, I love it. Right, and you see the game here is laid out very easily.

31:32Andrew Santino:Yeah, and I love the figurines of black guy. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And the white police officer. Well, those are actually ice officers. Oh, these are ice officers. And there's a brown guy too. Yes, he's working on the game. What a great game. Catch if you can. Yeah, yeah. And they can never catch them, can they? They can't. No, no, no. Much faster. And the buildings that you have. Yeah, I love it. They hide in the buildings and this and that. The buildings are all owned by those guys over there. Oh, the ones with that little funny hat on. Yes, that's cool. Yes, I love that. It's a good game.

32:01Andrew Santino:Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and they're in the sky for some reason. They're always up top. Yeah, yeah.

32:06Bobby Lee:You have these clouds and they're in the sky. Unless they can't be in those buildings because something might happen. Exactly. Right out of the building. Exactly. Yeah. Anyway, I love the concept of the game.

32:14Andrew Santino:Thank you. Catch me if you can. Yeah. But anyway, so I'll give you, I will give you$1 every game sold. Done. Really? Yes. $1 for every game sold. That sounds incredible. I mean, I made this in my garage. We're selling this for$100.

32:34Bobby Lee:$100 for the game? For the game. Oh. We're charging$100. You'll get$1. I'm just a humble man from Mansfield, Ohio. So I just, I think I'll take the deal. You'll take the deal. I will. Okay. 30 years later, broke, living in a hotel.

32:47Andrew Santino:Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You got to go higher. Well, you got to get a lawyer. You can get 25%, 50%. 50, they'll never do. 25? 25, I'll do. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 25, I'll take it. 25 % of every game you should sell is, I think, fair.

32:59Bobby Lee:You know what? We should invent something and see if we can go to patent with it. I had an invention. You know what's funny? My wife had one today. We were on a hike and she goes, she had like a little sling backpack. the ones that you have and there was a a dude with an umbrella to protect him from the asian guy son they don't you know yeah my people and she thought wouldn't it be cool if there was like a umbrella in this little like sling backpack so you could use for the sun or something changes and then folds back up into the backpack okay don't say that fuck is that a good idea yeah it's a good idea you don't i know can i give you one idea that i never i thought of in high school we had in like economics class they were like invent something yeah i played tennis like one time in in high school.

33:41Bobby Lee:I never played in gym class. And then every time you hit it in the net, it bounces, right? It just will hit, stop and bounce unless you're good and you never hit the net. But I thought amateurs hit the net all the fucking time. How come it just stays there? Like, how come there's not a quarter pipe on each side of the net? So at least when it hits, it would roll back some of the way to you. In fact, you could invent a, you could invent like a wheeling system to kick it back to you a little bit more.

34:06Andrew Santino:Yeah, but you stand there.

34:07Bobby Lee:Not at the net. You almost never are that close to the net.

34:09Andrew Santino:Yeah, but your toes are sometimes that.

34:11Bobby Lee:Almost never that close to the net. And also, it would only be used in amateur practice, never for, like, play.

34:16Andrew Santino:I don't like that idea.

34:17Bobby Lee:Because it's good. No, it's not good. It's very good. Because if you've ever played tennis, you're like, God, I got to go. Yeah, I play tennis. But it would help get it halfway back to you.

34:27Andrew Santino:Okay, so it hits the net, and there's a curve. There's a quarter pipe on each side. Right, right, right. And I think.

34:33Bobby Lee:Yeah, but a tennis ball bounces. But a lot of times it hits the net. Because of the give of the net, it holds it, right? So it would hold it and then slide it right back down.

34:43Andrew Santino:How about this? I want to do it. Let's try it. I think it's not going to work. And guess what? We can, and now, and now, well, yeah, you figure it out. Engineering and physics wise, I don't think it's going to work. Right? Back me up. Let's test it. Let's test it. Because it might. Let's test it. Because how about this? Yeah. We would toggle with it to figure out. I have another idea for us. Please. Yeah. Professor, I was in Chicago.

35:02Bobby Lee:And these are all copywritten. You can't steal these. You can't steal these. All right. Professor Pizza.

35:06Andrew Santino:Yeah. Wants to do a frozen pizza with us Really? Yeah Interesting Wait a minute Yeah Like a bad friend's frozen pizza Yeah In conjunction with professor pizza

35:17Bobby Lee:And what is the What's the What makes ours like unique different What do we do with it?

35:20Andrew Santino:Bulgogi meat Kimchi Stuff like that Phenomenal Yeah And it's Some of it's deep dish I think half and half Half and half Right And we do it on gold belly Start there Yeah Yeah

35:31Bobby Lee:That's a You know Can I pitch something? Yeah I don't know how hard this is He wants to do it I don't know how hard this is to do, but I've told you before, deep dishes and what we don't really eat that in Chicago. We do when you guys are in Chicago. I ate it there. I know, but we don't. And what I'm saying is - And so you do. When you live there, you just, people don't eat it that much. It's just, we usually eat thin, thin crust tavern style, which is square cut pizza. Detroit style. Ooh, it's tavern style. It's Chicago. Detroit style. Yeah, yeah. That's right. It's ours. Anyway. Tavern style.

35:59Bobby Lee:Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's tavern style. Eminem has something else to say about it. Eminem's wrong. Yeah, yeah. Eminem's not even from eight mile. He's from six mile.

36:05Andrew Santino:Okay.

36:06Bobby Lee:there yeah mom's spaghetti they don't make that on a mile okay that's only on six i've been there okay let's move on from half of the pizza is tavern style thin and half is deep dish okay it's a monster mashup it's a monster it's like a taco bell kfc here's the problem with that if i may sure you put in the oven how do you cook it well once well the deep dish dough is going to be you're going to it's going to be layered differently it's it's you could do that yeah

36:31Andrew Santino:Yeah, because by the time it comes out of the oven, the thin part is gonna be black. No. That's Andrew's part. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Your part's gonna be black and burnt.

36:40Bobby Lee:Check it out. Check it out.

36:41Andrew Santino:Yeah.

36:42Bobby Lee:You cook that half separately and you would join it with cheese. And you would join it with cheese. What's the binding agent? Cheese. So they're half moons.

36:54Andrew Santino:I see what you're saying. So the frozen pizza comes to your house. There's a side of sauce and cheese. yep right yep you put the whole thing in correct right yep you cook it to a certain point that's right then you pull it back out then you add the sauce and the cheese and some toppings on top of that part at your leisure and i love that word i love the phrasing of that word right and you put it back in yep that i can think but we'd have to test it bad friends mashup we would we would get in the kitchen yeah yeah yeah we'd have to eat so much can i say something else yeah yeah the tennis thing bullshit it's fucked it doesn't work i like it yeah i don't like it at all i think but the bad but the bad friends pizza i like bad friends pizza we can do the monster mashup will do yeah yeah yeah but he really said that so that's something that maybe we can talk about i'm down i

37:42Bobby Lee:would love to do that actually do that because every time i go there i eat his pizza yeah um

37:46Andrew Santino:can i just say um the tour with carlos there was no real hang up really in there was one thing and

37:53Bobby Lee:that's all wait a minute time out before you play anything yeah before you play anything yeah what What, what, give me your grievances, air out your grievances.

38:00Andrew Santino:There was only one grievance. It was only a grievance. Grief. It was at the airport and you were being - Andrew, you would have been on my side. What happened? A lady got my - No, no, no, no. That's not what, can I say? Well, I feel like you're not gonna tell the truth.

38:18Bobby Lee:Let him finish. It's his birthday. It's my, whose birthday? McCone. He's gone.

38:23Andrew Santino:Yeah, yeah, yeah. So someone gets to pick up the birthday tape. All right. Right, so that could quite possibly be true what you're saying. Someone got in your way. They did. Yeah, but then you said, excuse me. Yeah. They didn't say anything. Yeah. And then you said what? Say it back. Say it back! You said that to him? No, he said it to the lady that he said excuse me to.

38:43Bobby Lee:Oh, he's right, yeah. Thank you. Say it back. Yeah. Are you kidding me? Say it back. Then don't say excuse me in the first place. No, because it's a cordial, two people were at fault. Who was at fault? she was she was in my way but that's that's arguable she was in your way while you're

38:59Andrew Santino:walking yeah she like did a cross like uh like a 45 what was the ton what are you here let's hear excuse me all right so all right i'm walking let's hear it yeah let's excuse me was fine it was excuse me it was very no the excuse me was perfect thank you yeah it was a perfect excuse me and in my mind i'm like what a mindful thought position right regardless of who was at fault right that's a sweet very traditional way of saying i'm sorry my bad or whatever excuse me right then she didn't say anything right and then what did you say say it back that's not how you said that's how i said that there's no way that say it as if she's walking away go say it back

39:39Bobby Lee:yeah that's how she that's how he said it he's right yeah yeah say it back when i hold the door for someone they don't say thank you bullshit i go you're welcome you're welcome that's such he would be mad at you on the road i would be mad at you on the road for that you don't get to tell me what to do you specifically know that's whatever he does right is a reflection on me unless she has no idea you're together because you could go i don't know that weirdo someone goes this fucking guy go i know he's a piece of shit listen i don't have any grievances i thought

40:06Andrew Santino:that everything was actually perfect it was good meal was good and okay so yeah he didn't invite any strangers you know me into dinner how was do you got up on stage now the 12 minutes oh yeah How much time did you do? No, he did six minutes. Six? But. It's an eternity. But I'm going to say this. Very good. Really? I thought for a guy that doesn't do stand-up. Hasn't done it in years. And to stay on stage for six minutes in front of that many people. It's a big deal. It's a big deal. Well, we're going to get you on Kill Tony now. What? What venue are we watching? Minneapolis, the Orpheum.

40:38Bobby Lee:Yeah, the Orpheum. We're going to get him on Kill Tony now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You took me to dinner when I was a very young comedian He treated you like A king Didn't cast me in the show See there's these little tiny It is with this guy With this guy He's like a Korean You're very Korean You have little Resentments that build This business is hard And it comes out in weird ways And this is the way it comes out with him Right? He has another one. I'm still holding on to resentment? Yeah, yeah, holding on to resentment about how he's perceived this, which is fucking bullshit, that he auditioned for Mad TV.

49:00Andrew Santino:He didn't get it, and he thought that I treated him differently after that he didn't get it. Is that true? No. He got a little Hollywood about it. Is any of it not true? I don't know what he's talking about. Let's just say the text, the responses, they didn't come back.

49:17Bobby Lee:Oh, brother. Yeah, but I don't text that. He doesn't know. No, no, no, no, no. There was texts were flowing. I didn't get on season 14 of Mad TV, known as the best season. Best season of life. It was the year that buried. So good.

49:31Andrew Santino:That was the year that buried the show. I think it canceled. They got canceled. That was the last season. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And that's God's work. Just look at your career now. Yeah. Right? So fuck you. It is true. Yeah, yeah. It worked out for the better. Fuck you, dude. Yeah.

49:50He told me crazy stories back in the day. Yeah, you can't say them. What is the story you told me you try to quit drugs called Turkey on the show? Yes. And it's weird fucking ooze started. Yeah, I shit my pants.

50:00Andrew Santino:And when I play Connie Chung, yes. And Ari Spears was going, damn, it smells like shit. Yeah, so that is a true story. That's funny. It's not funny. It's very funny. You told that to me. I was like, hey, isn't that funny? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. Something happened where I was detoxing off of Vicodin, right? Oh, you were... Vicodin was your thing. Yeah, yeah. It's an opiate, right? Yeah, you don't want to get hooked. Two days before I did Connie Chung, right? You decided to quit cold turkey? Yeah, the show goes, you got to get off the drugs. Taper, though. No, I didn't know anything about it.

50:32Andrew Santino:How old were you at the time? Fuck, I was 32. Okay, so you're on Mad TV. You get Mad TV. But before Mad TV, you weren't on television before this. I did commercials. but like you and I had done I had done I also had done heroin Kumar I think she's gonna say heroin so heroin Kumar so this was big for you to be on that TV yeah it was pretty big so the pressure is immense you're you're going down to LA you're getting pills yeah yeah no and you're having a good time so where I know where I got where I got the fort where I got no no there was a second city guy right who had everything he had Vicodin for horses oh Jesus Christ they were like these big blue they were big blue Vicodin

51:20Bobby Lee:pills he had Vicodin and Ivermectin

51:22Andrew Santino:he had both it was something it was a specific big blue pill see this is a good story right that he would because a lot of the cast members was from Second City he would give me these big I would I spent all my money on these big blue viking and pills and he um he knew writers and cast members right so he would go backstage they're like stop selling this shit to bobby no no it was secret right so i would give him like three or four grand that's why are you four grand yeah that's why our issue fear beat me up because one time i asked ari for four grand because i was on it mad and i had no money left You asked, he beat you up because you - That's not what the context of that is.

52:06Ari? Ari beat you up? Yeah, the real - You couldn't imagine his like arms swing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He beat me up. At the end of the day -

52:14Andrew Santino:This is at Hong Kong? No. Do you have any qualms with this, Mr. Andre?

52:19Bobby Lee:No, we've actually gotten along. Yeah, we've got great. It's been pretty amazing. There's no qualms. No.

52:25Andrew Santino:We've actually called each other. We talked about how much we love taking the piss out of here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because you seem to always have like a little thing with me. But wait, maybe it's you. I don't think it's me. You think it's him. Yeah, yeah. I don't have a thing with anyone else in the comedy community. I get along with everybody. When we were at that Netflix brunch, Santino goes, you talk to everybody. There's people here, not in front of them. You talk to everybody. You got something. I go, well, there's one guy here, you know, we kind of ruffle each other's face. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

52:53Andrew Santino:But I talk to everybody too on that Netflix lunch. Yeah, that's not what most people say. I talk to Odenkirk. I talk to Don Stewart. I talked to a lot of people. Okay, you can name a few. Okay, I named a few. FYI. I was very social. So, so. I was very social. So, so Paul Scheer selling you the pills and then Ari beat you. Yeah, it wasn't Paul Scheer. Why does Ari. I love you, Paul. Why did Ari punch? Why did Ari throw a punch at you? Okay, this is old, old news. And also. I don't want to rehash. I love you guys. Have me had a guest on your show and all we do, we spend the time talking about Bobby the whole time.

53:23It's like, oh, let's talk about your movie.

53:24Andrew Santino:How was the movie? He's a movie star now, dude. Yeah. Movie star. I did one movie. It's pretty big.

53:34Bobby Lee:Netflix is going to be the top movie on Netflix. Top movie on Netflix. 100%. You think so? There's no doubt in my mind. I'm flattered by that. I hope so. There's no doubt. I hope so. When you did the scene at the golf course naked, you had your cock out, huh? Yeah, they give you a little... Oh, no, the Merkin? They give you a little bag, but it flew off. I wanted you to be butt naked for that. I was. You would have fun. I was. That's going to kill it. Well, you know, I try to keep it on. Yeah. But the thing with the water, it slips off. John, good guy, dude. Good guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's an ace.

54:05He is an ace. Sweet guy, total pro. Nice guy. A hundred percent shows up early, always prepared. Yeah. Just like a total pro. WWE is actually, in my opinion, the greatest acting school you could ever go to. We've seen it work. Well, think about it. They have to have a monologue that they got that afternoon on the plane. They have to deliver something out of their mouth that's five pages long in front of 40 ,000 people. They can improvise. Yeah, but I mean.

54:45Andrew Santino:It's not an Aaron Sorkin project where you have to do it word by word. Yeah, but he said you have. I'm making a larger point. I'm making a larger. Sure. Besides the book. I'm just saying what they have to do. They had to go to Dublin, you know, one night, deliver a monologue that's exposition about the next fight in Des Moines that the audience isn't even connected to. And then another wrestler comes out and like, you know, they do John Wick stunts for like 45 minutes. Then they got to deliver more exposition. It's like if you could go through that for as many years as he went through it, a movie is like nothing.

55:24Yeah, this is bullshit. Yeah. Right.

55:27Bobby Lee:He's like, do it again. That's fine. Yeah, we can take it again. Fuck that. Another take. Not in front of 40 ,000. I mean, that's why. You know what's so funny about that? When I watched the Hogan documentary, it showed many reasons why he gained popularity, Hulk Hogan. But one of them also was his delivery, his character delivery on those pops, whatever they call them. Like the promo pops. He was flawless. Yeah. Like he wouldn't miss. And they got it so tight, so good. Then they watched guys. you watched guys, they did outtakes on that. It was wild to watch because people get defeated. Like if they fuck up, they're like, fuck, do it again.

56:04Bobby Lee:And they would do it again. And you watch these guys like lose the character. And then they have to take some. It was kind of powerful to watch. So the more people that could stay in it, like what you're saying, that's how they got, it was so organic. There's very few guys willing to get that jacked and do that much wrestling and stunt work and also have to deliver pages and pages of dialogue and monologues in an instant.

56:34Andrew Santino:And also committing to the character. And commit to the character. And the storyline. And in front of 50 ,000 people, it's impossibly hard. So it's like you only get one of those guys a generation. It's like Hulk Hogan is like the guy for 10, 20 years. then you get Dwayne The Rock Johnson for another 10-20 years then you get John for another 20 years I don't know Cody Rhodes

56:59Bobby Lee:yeah he seems like the guy I just did Street Fighter with him he's the best that's the guy that everyone I think has pinned to be the guy and his dad was Dusty Rhodes and his brother's Gold Dust yeah Gold Dust and you know so I just last year I got to work with John all summer and then I went to Australia and did Street Fighter with Cody, it's like I love working with wrestling. Where was it? And I grew up with Hulk Hogan, Macho Man, Junkyard Dog sheets on my bed. So it's like a total drink of true working with John. Tonga the Kid? Yeah. This was shot in New York. I don't know Tonga the Kid. This is his favorite.

57:39I'm sorry, this is New Jersey.

57:40Andrew Santino:Every time I bring up Tonga the Kid, this is New Jersey. You don't know Tonga the Kid? This is before my time. Oh, okay.

57:46Bobby Lee:Well, let me tell you something. You're much older than me. We're on his land right now. We're on his land. We should do an acknowledgement. Do we do a sacred land acknowledgement? We're on Bobby's land or Tonga?

57:58Andrew Santino:Okay, I don't feel comfortable with this part of the competition. I don't feel comfortable. Why? At an AAPI panel. I'm Polynesian. I'm polyamorous. Yeah, yeah. I haven't told my wife, but I'm polyamorous. Is Tom still alive? I hope so. A lot of these guys are not alive. it's like they're big guys they did a lot of crazy steroids and drugs he's alive big fan I'm going to Topgolf tonight why I'm Korean I'm fully getting plastic surgery to become Korean I can't wait

58:35Bobby Lee:most of us are turning Chinese that's a new trend I'm turning Chinese

58:39Andrew Santino:what were you going to say am I what were you serious when you texted me you want to go on tour together yeah it's fucking serious do it i love you man you're fucking funny i don't do a show you gave me one of the best pieces of advice one time you said make them laugh before your first joke on your walk to the stage you gave me that advice very young and i was like that's the fucking best because it shakes off the jitters so that that first like taking the mic out of the stand And all that shit isn't awkward. So I always, I'll sneak up behind the audience and do a bunch of fucking goofy ass Andy Kaufman shit.

59:17Yeah. Yeah, I love you, man.

59:19Bobby Lee:It's smart because then once you do start talking, they don't laugh. So I think that's a very good move. Well, here's another note. Also, I want to steal your material. Yeah, yeah. On tour.

59:29Andrew Santino:All right. Yeah, do it. I'll do yours. Honestly. We should do on Halloween. Yeah, yeah, yeah. On Halloween, we should. I give you full permission to do the brown face. I don't know. What am I? Yeah, here's another note that I have. There's a difference between writing funny and being funny. Do you understand what I mean? Oh, yeah. Yeah. So a lot of new comics will just memorize whatever they wrote. Hey, girl. Hey, girl. Hi, hey. Hi, hey, hey. Yeah. Shut the fuck up.

59:57Bobby Lee:I'm not gay. Some people are funny. Some people write funny. Okay, dude. Spill that tea, girl. Tell us. Go off, queen.

1:00:08Andrew Santino:Yeah, yeah, yeah. I really want your belly back I know you're trying to do the Kumail thing You're probably doing peptides He's getting jacked Please don't You with that pop belly When you really had the dad bod Before you told a joke I was laughing Okay You looked like human comedy Why are In this bad friends circular thing Why is it a cartoon of you with a Chicano Community leader

1:00:40That's Paul Rodriguez

1:00:42Andrew Santino:That's a young Paul I replaced Paul you didn't know that Got it got it got it Bad Friends was really with him and Paul The original I look like a Cheech Marin You do Why do I look like Salvador Dali in this one

1:00:59Bobby Lee:You have a Dali style You think I have a Dali style You have a very Dali bite Like when you guys popped up on Happy Gilmore Oh that's cool You know what I'll be honest with you

1:01:07Andrew Santino:Huge for us As a comic I have to say It was awesome I think you're very funny You're just You have my I love you No no You have my kind of energy I I think we're similar The other day You never come by the house Behind me I didn't see you in years And you came up from behind me Took my shirt And wrapped it over my head Yeah You know what I mean And I didn't see you in years Yeah That's my kind of energy I know But you got very shy What? You got shy I got shy Yeah yeah because I'm more corporate. I'm more corporate and I watch what I say. Okay. So corporate, big corporate events? I'm corporate, yeah.

1:01:44Andrew Santino:Have you ever done a corporate gig? I've never done one. I've never once been asked. When I hear comics like, I had to do a corporate gig once and yada, yada, yada. I'm like, how? How did that happen? Not once. Not me either. Never. I mean, why would a single corporation look at us and ask us this? Here's another reason. We're Tom Shalhoub or something. A compliment. is you've always, even as a youngster, right, you've always been fashionable. You think so? Oh, yeah, yeah. I've always thought to myself, Eric Andre is fashionable. Have you ever said it? I never said it to you, but I always felt it like you're cool.

1:02:22Thanks, man.

1:02:22Andrew Santino:Yeah, dress-wise. Fantino's like, do you want me to leave you two? I couldn't care less. He doesn't care. No, no, no, no. He doesn't care. We were going to do a movie together. Yeah. Wow. What happened? We were going to do something together.

I don't know where it is. That's why. There's a new Korean store that just opened for those sage products, right? It was like a two-mile line.
