This podcast episode blends humor, nostalgia, and career reflections, featuring guest Colton Dunn, a comedian and writer known for MADtv, Key & Peele, and Superstore. The hosts engage in lighthearted teasing, including jokes about Bobby Lee's texting habits and a past awkward encounter at a Larry David premiere. Dunn recounts his early days in comedy, from performing at Boom Chicago in Amsterdam to writing sketches for MADtv, where he partied hard and formed lasting bonds with peers like Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key. A major story involves a disgraced MADtv writer who lied about his résumé, claiming to work with South Park and Sacha Baron Cohen, eventually being exposed and fired. Dunn also discusses his current role as producer on the horror-comedy series Widow's Bay, created by Katie Dippold, which Bobby praises effusively before realizing Dippold is the creator, prompting a live phone call to her. The conversation touches on improv, endurance feats, and personal life, with Dunn revealing he has three children. Throughout, the tone is irreverent and affectionate, showcasing the camaraderie of comedians who came up together. The episode ends with Dunn gifting Bobby a comic book he wrote and produced, and the two agreeing to start texting, closing on a warm, humorous note.

Did you meet a little?
No. Incel here?
Incel? How is he an incel?
Incel? Oh, shit.
Wait, he did say he drank a bunch of energy drinks.
Yeah, I know, dude.
That's not incel. That's cool.
I don't know.
That's like BMX rider.
You don't have to be an incel to drink energy drinks, but if you are an incel, you drink
energy drinks.
You're at level 10 right now, dude. I need to bring it down to five.
Okay, okay, okay.
Okay?
I'm going to call to incel right away, and then you're telling me to call him.
We're not even recording yet. He's doing the thing.
It's recording now.
It is?
You're an incel.
You're an incel.
No, you're not.
No, your girlfriend's beautiful.
Yeah, bro.
Yeah.
It's a beautiful girlfriend, man.
Yeah.
And you as well.
Your wife is beautiful.
She's got a beautiful wife, man.
Well, I met her.
All right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You put your headphones on or no?
You don't do that?
Dude.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Now, Colton, why did you give me such attitude at the Larry David premiere?
I didn't give you any attitude.
A little attitude, guys.
No way.
What kind of attitude?
What are you talking about?
Well, I was sitting there with a group of people and Lapkus and Mike Castle, right?
Yeah.
And then you made it a point to go, I'm up front.
What?
That you were up front?
No, I was sitting further up front than you were.
Way further.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But then you made a big deal.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hey, guys, I'm going to. Well, I had said, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you got better seats.
Well, the tables have turned.
Larry David's premiere seating show.
I know.
It has turned.
Has it not?
Has it not?
It has turned.
Well, you know, and also you said you were very confrontational that night.
No, I wasn't.
I was so happy.
This is what you said.
Can I tell you what you said?
What did I say?
You said, I've been texting you.
You haven't texted me back.
I did say I had texted you and you never texted me back.
That was like two years ago.
Yeah.
And what's my vibe, guys?
No text back.
Yeah, no text back.
But I don't have your number.
I don't know what that. I don't have. I don't literally have your number.
What does that mean?
It's you just never. You never text anybody back?
No, I do.
You're like, that's my rule?
Cool, man.
No, no, no.
I like that you packaged that as a vibe.
Hey, man, it's my vibe.
I like to rob banks.
No, but I don't have your number saved.
So after this, we'll, you know. Yeah.
We'll text each other back.
Maybe.
No, we won't.
No.
All right.
Yeah.
Figure it out.
No, no, no.
What's your resistance?
Oh, no, I'm not a resistance.
I'm just not going to hold my breath, baby.
It's all good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We've known each other for what?
Oh, Jesus.
Over 20 years.
Easily.
Easily.
I remember you guys did the goddamn comedy jam together.
That's right.
And I remember you specifically singing a Sister Christian song.
That's right.
Night Ranger.
And I remember Bobby, because I had coached him previous to his performance, and it was
you, and it was Tiffany Haddish.
That's right.
And then he was the last to go up, and he was like, oh, my God.
God, Colton and Tiffany.
I know.
They crushed it so hard.
That you were afraid to.
I was afraid to go up.
Yeah.
And then I went up, and what did I do?
You showed something.
Yeah.
You got desperate.
I got desperate.
Oh, you took your clothes off.
Completely, though.
But that was like, that's like, you got to do it.
That was like, at that time, you got to understand what Hollywood is like.
I guess.
I guess.
Bobby Lee got on stage.
Everybody in the audience knew those clothes were not long for his body.
In Comedy Central, it was mad.
They were all upset about that.
They were very upset about it.
They just had to blur it.
I know.
They had to blur it.
They blurred it, but they were very upset about it.
Screaming.
There was a lot of screaming going on.
The audience loved it.
It played great.
So, Colton has become a star.
No.
Yes, you have.
No way.
Dude, you got better seats than I did at the Larry David thing.
That is true.
And you were great in that show, by the way.
Oh, thanks.
And I gave you a compliment.
Thank you.
Did you like it or no?
Yeah.
Oh, I loved it.
What was the compliment?
I don't remember.
Did you give me a compliment?
I did a great job.
Yeah, I think that's a great compliment.
That's not a compliment?
That's great.
To confront someone if they liked or didn't like a compliment is really crazy work.
It is?
Yeah.
And your compliment was, nice job.
Hey, man.
Hey, Bobby.
Hey, Bobby.
Yeah.
You gave a really good compliment.
It was awesome.
Yeah.
Afterwards.
It was better than doing it.
Great job, dude.
Anyway, you did a great job.
It was, though.
It was like one of those, like, Bobby, you did a great job.
Bobby's like, what's funny, you guys all know Bobby is this kind of kooky goofball, but
Bobby's kind of like, for me, is like the old coach who's like, hey, kid.
Oh, from Rocky.
From Rocky.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And I'm like, what?
You saw that coach?
He's like, yeah, I saw you, kid.
No, no, no.
I've been watching you the whole time.
No, no.
You're Harry Kane, dude.
Oh.
Yeah, you're a leader now, dude.
Let's tell, Bobby doesn't remember this, but he has the good points.
I do remember everything.
You remember this?
Okay, maybe you do.
Well, I don't know what it is yet.
Well, I was right.
I was right.
I was a writer at MADtv.
For many years.
For many years.
Yeah.
And I partied super hard, like everybody.
Sick.
Pretty sick.
Yeah, it's sick, right?
My man, you and me would have been.
Yeah, tight.
You would have loved my house.
I would have got you on that show.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Anyway.
Promise?
All right.
Cool.
That time is fast.
And so, you know, but I'm there as a writer, and I'm just, you know.
Great writer.
Fancy free.
And Bobby comes one day, and I don't know if you remember, you said this to me.
You go, hey, man.
You're going to be a producer one day.
Cocaine on my face.
Did you become one?
Did you like that guy?
I am.
Now I am.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I was fucking right.
He was right.
But at the time, at the time, I was like, what the fuck is this guy talking about?
I can't even produce rent.
I'm a seer.
I'm a seer.
No, honestly, he does have some, like, oracle qualities about him that's weird, but you're
right.
So, yeah, Luke, you're going to be a star.
I respect it.
That was like.
Thank you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I believe it.
I believe it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're going to be a star, dude.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Your episode of Comics Unleashed.
Dude, I swear to God.
Did he do Comics Unleashed?
Yeah, he did.
Yeah.
Oh, wow, bro.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He did.
Thank you.
Congratulations, man.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Congratulations, dude.
Yeah.
That's a big show.
It's pretty huge, actually, yeah.
No big deal.
CBS.
Yeah.
It's been a while.
Oh, CBS.
Yeah.
Really?
No big deal.
CBS.
Yeah.
Not a.
Series regular on a TV show.
So, like, what was it?
What did you unleash?
Not comedy.
I was pretty unleashed.
I did have censors come up directly to me multiple times
to say, you can't say that, you can't say that,
you have to say it again.
Byron Allen kept cursing to me.
I got him all riled up.
Really?
Yeah, he was cursing because he was mad at you?
No, he was just like,
oh, you're talking about wanting to fuck this girl?
I have a good joke about wanting to have sex with someone.
He's like, you're going to fuck her?
And then they would cut and be like,
hey, Byron, you can't say fuck.
And he's like, okay, I won't say it again.
He's like, oh, the leashes are out.
Man, the leash is out again.
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who?
Bring that back.
Not good, not relative?
Oh, that's one of my trigger songs.
Why is that?
Yeah, and then I think the other one is feeling hot, hot, hot.
It sends me into like a mental spiral.
But who did?
I don't know.
What year?
Who did let the dogs out?
I don't know, but don't start singing.
Okay.
Yeah, so.
Who were you on with on Comics Unleashed?
Just a bunch of ladies.
Did this happen?
Did this already air?
Yeah, it aired.
It aired.
Can we see it on, is it streaming somewhere?
Yeah.
Colton, please.
You have so much, you have so many bigger things going on.
You don't want, you don't need to see my comics.
Not really.
I blew up an inflatable water slide.
Don't have a lot going on.
That's a great life.
That's a great life.
You know, I got cut out of the show.
I told you that.
Yes, yes, yes.
But the reason why I went to the premiere is that Larry himself,
called me and go, can you please come to the premiere?
I'm, you know, made the pit didn't work, you know, and I was the sketch.
I was in, oh yeah.
It just, the whole sketch got cut out.
Is that something that, um, a lot of people don't do is call you and say,
Hey, like you're actually not in it.
Is that like a courtesy?
Many people don't extend.
I think for somebody like Bobby Lee, you would extend that courtesy.
No, they never, I have never, I have never had that call before.
I know.
Okay.
He called me immediately after he said, can you believe he let me know in advance?
Yeah, he let me know in advance.
He called him me himself.
It was like, it was like that old school, um, show business, which is like kiddo.
Yeah.
You know, um, I had told this story before, but I was the back room at the, I was checking
ideas before Matt TV at the comedy store and George Carlin came in.
Do you guys know him?
Yeah.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
I'm sorry.
I'm kidding.
I'm kidding.
I'm kidding.
Legend.
Yes.
Yes.
I know he was a legend.
Yes.
Yeah.
So anyway, uh, big fan.
Yeah.
I was a kid.
I was, you know, your age.
How old are you?
25.
Yeah.
I was that age, whatever that age is.
And, um, he said, what's your name?
Kid.
And I go, Bobby Lee.
I'm a comedian.
Am I boring you?
No, no, no.
I'm sorry.
I was just, I thought that was a big yawn.
Oh, that was not a yawn at all.
All right.
And then a year later he walked in again.
I was working the back door again and he goes, good evening, Mr. Lee.
He had remembered my name and that Larry David thing felt like the same thing.
Have you ever been in a situation where you show up to a premiere, like excited to see
yourself and you're not, you never see yourself?
Oh yeah.
Have you?
Uh, the movie Paul.
I don't know.
Well, you might've dodged a bullet on that one.
Was it Alien?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then they put me in the, uh, Oh, the extended, the extended version.
Yeah.
I'm in the director's cut, but like somebody caught me.
The director wanted you in.
Yeah.
And I didn't know I went in and I'm like, Oh, cause I was in the beginning.
That's messed up.
No, that happens a lot for me.
That's not good.
It's not good.
That's not good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
As a producer, if I was a producer, I would not let that happen.
It's so funny to see Bobby at the premiere as a producer and you're like, you know, he,
he's not.
He's not in it, right?
Is he going to figure that out?
Yeah.
But it happens all the time.
I believe.
I'd imagine, but I can't imagine any, any producer with a performance background on
camera background would not.
Yeah.
Would not give that courtesy.
Yeah.
Like I was in the movie, The Dictator, never was invited to the premiere.
But at least you were in it a lot.
I was in it a lot, but I was not invited to the premiere.
Wait.
Were you too controversial for that movie for the premiere?
I don't know.
No, I don't know what it was.
They just didn't invite me.
Yeah.
So, I mean, you know, things like that.
What?
I'm surprised you'd get cut out of that.
I didn't get caught.
You didn't.
He did it.
He wasn't in the.
You're prominent in that film.
Yeah.
You wonder, maybe there's a way that you, maybe you got invited to the premiere and
you just didn't get the invite.
You don't check your mail.
That's another.
Okay.
Maybe they texted you.
Maybe somebody texted you about it.
Call the producer right now.
Yeah.
I think one of the.
I can't imagine that they wouldn't want as many Asians there as possible to shield the
them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sony's like, call them all.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You would think.
I think one of the reasons why it was in London.
Oh.
Yeah.
Does that make it.
I don't know.
I don't know.
That's a weird.
I mean, I don't know.
I guess I wouldn't assume that I would just be like, hey, man, you want to go see the
movie in London?
But.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I definitely was not invited.
Would you?
Because I kept calling.
You would have gone.
Yeah.
And they're like, it's in London.
So.
Oh.
And I go, what does that mean?
I'm not going to fly you out.
Oh, then just go.
I'll be in London.
You wanted them to fly you out to London.
I'm in the movie.
Oh, buddy.
Now we're.
No, no.
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
We don't have that in the budget.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Now it's the producer coming out.
No, wait.
First of all, Luke.
No, I'm going to ask you.
Not you.
Colton.
Okay.
If you had five scenes in a movie, right, and it was in a different country, you don't
think that they would fly you out?
I mean, I guess I'd have to see.
It would depend on what the scenes were in the movie.
Yeah.
It would have to depend on, honestly, what your contract was when you started the work
on the job.
I mean, you make the agreement for getting paid to go to a premiere at the beginning.
Like, that's press.
That's like publicity.
You know, like, so, you know, just paying you out of, like, just out of niceness.
I mean, maybe somebody could have done that who works on the movie, but.
Okay.
What about this?
What about this situation?
Business-wise, there'd be no reason to buy you a ticket.
Colton.
Just to be there.
So, I'm not a star.
You are.
You're a star.
I'm not a star.
You know, I mean.
Yeah.
There's a lot of stars in that movie.
There's a lot of stars.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Too many stars.
There's not too many.
I think it's the right amount.
It's a great movie.
Yeah.
Don't make this about you.
All right.
Let's talk about you.
Let's talk about.
It's a good, important movie.
One last question.
Yeah.
All right.
If you're doing a film.
Okay.
Right?
And you show up and they go, you're not, you don't have a trailer.
Which just happened too.
Right?
You showed up and there's no trailer.
There's no trailer.
And they go, I go, why?
It's not in the contract.
Right?
So, I had to sit with the extras in a barn.
And I had scenes and stuff.
Would you be mad about that?
I mean, I'd be mad at my representation.
Yeah.
And then they screamed at the producers and then I got like, no one talked to me for the
rest of the movie.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
It was bad.
So.
Are you serious?
Yeah.
Wait, why wouldn't they have a trailer for you?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Dude, are they trolling you?
I know.
I made the mistake of yelling at my agents.
Why the fuck don't I have a trailer?
Right?
And then they screamed at the producers.
And then it was like, because there was just so many people in a couple of days.
They just ran out.
But what made me mad was Ken Jeong had one.
Yeah.
Well, that's.
Yeah.
And we both had the same movie.
I understand that would make you feel.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Maybe they.
Maybe.
They mixed you guys up or something.
And there was a confusion.
What?
Bro.
Oh, bro.
Dude, what kind of take is that?
I'm trying to.
Put the leash on.
Put the leash on.
Leash it up.
Leash it up.
You're not.
I'm trying to see.
That's not Byron Allen, dude.
I'm trying to see.
It's a different blog guy.
Okay.
It seems like your agent.
Byron.
Byron.
Don't say it, Byron.
Don't do it, Byron.
Don't do it, Byron.
Don't do it, Byron.

That's what I called them
I was like, Mr. Key
No, no, no
No, because
Because of the MADtv relationship
Yeah
You got brought over to that
For sure
And I had known Jordan from before MADtv
Oh, Amsterdam
Yeah, Amsterdam
Yeah
And I had met Keegan in passing just through MADprom
So I had known both those guys before MADtv
And then after, and then obviously
So you knew Ike back then, Josh
Oh, all of us
Ike Barinholtz, his brother John
Yeah
Josh, Seth
Yeah
All those dudes
Yeah
I remember
They used to hang out
Those guys used to hang out
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
They used to hang out
We all used to hang out
Used to be Byron Allen out there
Dude, I think Holly
Yeah, I know
You guys hang out a lot, yeah
Yeah
But now, there was a time in the show
Where I was pretty bad
At the table reads
Was that a tough time for you?
Yeah
I'm sorry
Yeah, it was a tough laugh
Yeah
Well, you know, I was a writer at the table reads
So for me, I got to experience table reads differently
Yeah
How long had you been there before Bobby joined?
No, he was there the last three
I was already there
Oh
He was there the last three
But Bobby and I worked together a lot
We did
You wrote me some good ones
And I think I got in kind of
As you were kind of coming out of
Whatever funk you were in
Yeah, yeah
Because I think with me and Dips were there
Like you have
You had some
Katie Dippold
You had some friendships
Yeah, yeah
In the writer's room
I did
And so the table reads were fun
From my memory
Yeah, yeah, from my memory too
I know they were always stressful for you
Yeah, they were stressful
They're very stressful for this guy
But
But this specific person
But at the end of the day, they were super fun
Yeah, every Tuesday was the most horrifying day for me
It was a tough day
Yeah, Monday night, you would get the scripts
Yeah
And then, you know, there was no email or nothing
They would deliver it to your house
No, a person would go to your house
Yeah, and just give you the script
Just give you a script
Yeah
So at midnight, you're just running through it to see what you're in
But were you there when Katie Dippold did that prank?
The best prank ever
Oh, you were there for that one
Oh, yeah, yeah
The prank, yeah
Do you know about the prank?
No, no, what is it?
Well, um
I mean
I don't know, dude
You should have Katie on the show
To tell the story
I know
You did call her when Ben Schwartz was here
I did
Yeah
Did she pick up?
She did pick up
She was laughing immediately
Oh, she did, okay
Okay
Oh, yeah, yeah, so she knows
Yeah, yeah
Okay, well, you gotta have her on the show
It's a wonderful story
Yeah, it is a wonderful story
I don't want to tell it
Because it's such a good story
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I already told it
Oh, you've already told it?
Well, then, yes, I was there
What a loser
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Falling apart at the table
Yeah, I was falling apart
Oh, it was bad
Yeah, she gave me
There was a script
So everybody gets a script at the table reading
And everyone's going along and reading their lines
And, like, going to the thing
But what Katie had done
Was given Bobby a different script
And so people are going through
A lot of trouble
And, like, I'm reading
And in Bobby's script
It says, like
I forget what the lines were
But it was, like
It was, like, random shit
So people would do it
I'm losing it
I'm losing it
And he would just say that
So everybody else
Does not see that line on the page
Oh, my God
They just think he's just saying it
Yeah, bird noises
And they're pushing
And they're just pushing through
Because they're like
Well, it's just Bobby beat Bobby
Yeah
We all know
And did you know?
Huh?
Did you know that I had a specific script
Or were you shocked by it?
No, we knew that this was a prank
Oh, so you were in
I believe all the writers
We knew
Oh, the writers knew
Oh, I didn't know
I thought only Katie knew
I made a mistake
Yeah
Maybe Katie got all of us
I think she got all of us
Because I remember
She was the only one laughing
I mean, I definitely
Would have been laughing
Yeah
For sure
Even if I didn't know
I would have been going
Yeah, people were scared
People were scared of me
Because it was like
I'm about to snap
Oh, that's right
That's right
It was our last
Table read for the whole show
It was like
Specific, like
I don't know what I'm doing
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So now the executives
And everyone is scared
Everyone's scared
Because they think
I'm going to lose my mind
Yeah, that was the prank
Yeah
That's her prank, man
It was a great prank, Dad
She got him
Yeah, she got me, yeah
She got him
So you were on
With Key and Peele
The whole time
Whole time
Yeah
As far as I know
Unless they did
They might have done
Some stuff about me
Who came up
With the football stuff?
The football stuff
My name is
I feel like
I feel like that
Might have been Jordan
Yeah, yeah
Jordan himself
And then
And then it was one of those
You know, like a lot of things
We did something called
Like dookie sessions
Yeah
Where at the beginning
Of the day
We would just come in
And come in with an idea
And we'd float a dookie
Yeah, yeah
And then everybody else
Would just pitch on that idea
Ah
So for that one
It would have been like
Oh, yeah
You know, he probably
Wrote down a bunch of names
Yeah, yeah
And then we all submitted
A bunch of names
Yeah
Like Donkey Teeth
That's the name I submitted
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
That was really good
Donkey Teeth was good
Yeah
Donkey Teeth was good
And then who wrote
The teacher one
Keegan
Rich Telerico
Telerico wrote that
Yeah, dude
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Rich and Keegan
Wrote that together
Wow
Substitute teacher
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
That's 100% Rich Telerico
Telerico, dude
He wrote for Matt as well
Yeah
Wrote for Matt TV as well
Wrote some of the best sketches
I believe that
I believe that as well
Yeah
Hands down
Isn't it
Yeah
Have you seen that sketch?
Yes
Yeah, I've seen A.A. Ron
You've seen A.A. Ron
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
That was probably
I was auditioning for a TV show
I had two lines
It was like a guest spot
Okay
And I wait along
I was in this lobby
Yeah
And on the table was
Entertainment Weekly
It was Key & Peele on it
Yeah
Right
And I went into
You just went
I'm in the staff
No, I just went into like
What happened in my life
Yeah
I'm about to snap
I'm about to snap
Caw, caw, caw
How do you make it in this city?
What the fuck?
That's the whole job
The whole job is looking around
And how great everybody is
I know, I know
And being like
All right
I'm not going to let it affect me
But in this case
They're my boys
Yeah
Right
And I'm so happy for them
It makes me more mad
No, it doesn't make me more mad
It doesn't make me more mad
I was just like
It was
I know what you're talking about
No, no, no
Let me explain myself
I got you
No, no, no
I feel like you don't
I feel like you don't get me
No, we got you
No, no, no
I get you
I get you back
But anyway
I
It was like
I'm so happy for them
But then also
You go to yourself and go
Oh, I have nothing
And this is where you and I started this
Yeah
In that time period
Oh
Yeah
I want to roll back to just 15 seconds ago
And this is unrelated
You guys really laughed hard
When I said I'm about to snap
When Luke said it first
I
I
I was
Conversation is a group effort
Yeah
And that happens a lot
Yeah, yeah
It'll happen a lot of times
Where someone will say a joke
That isn't quite big
And the group bands together
Yeah, yeah
The other person repeats it
To make sure everybody hears it
Yeah
And then
And then
And then the appropriate thing
Which was to go
But hey guys
That was not mine
Credit due
Yeah
You know
It's like that Key and Peele sketch
Yeah, I was gonna say
Is that our Key and Peele sketch about that?
I'd like high on pot news
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Gabriel Iglesias comes in
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You gotta come on tour with me
Yeah
Yeah
So it's just like that sketch
Yeah, I got you
Apologies, Luke
Yeah, yeah, yeah
But in this case
You gave him the credit
You gotta be more bold
I will
I will
I'm still getting
Getting used to it
So, you know
I'm just getting comfortable
Yeah
Nerds against nukes
Let's not talk about
It's fine
Cool, man
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We're
I'm not a nerd
I'm against him as well
But, you know
It's like a vintage tea
Do you know my vintage tea?
Vintage clothing
Wow
Wow
I have no idea what's going on right now
Wow
Okay
See, this is my problem with you
I'm sorry
I know we have a guest here
But this is my problem with you
What?
You're getting a little too cocky
What is cocky?
We hit an impasse already
I will say he does have a great
Vintage tea collection
You're not helping me
Based on his economics
I think he's doing pretty well
In terms of dressing
Oh right
Based on his economics
We used to do the vintage
Sure man
I only say that because I know that you're into it
I don't know what it is
But there's one moment that I remember
From you, I don't know why
But you said something
You started singing Life on Mars
By David Bowie
At the table read, and I don't know why you did it
And you're a writer
Wait, why I did it?
Yeah, you sang it a little bit
Why was I?
I don't know why, but that's a memory of mine
There's a memory where I would have done that
Because there was a sketch we wrote
Oh my god
You remember?
Yeah
Is there
It might have been a Neil deGrasse Tyson sketch
I love him
Did you guys ever have one in mind?
I'll figure it out
I definitely remember writing a
Writing a Life on Mars
Or is there Life on Mars parody song
Yeah, that's what it was
And I may have had to sing it
Because maybe Jordan didn't want to sing it
For the read or something
For whatever reason I sang it
Do you remember when Cam Peel at the table read?
Sometimes push the tables aside
And they would just act out
Oh yeah, all the time
Do the sketch?
Yeah, the sketch
They would just do it
Well, like the slap guy
Yeah, yeah, yeah
They would always just stand up
And perform it
You can't just sit there
You don't read it
And the person's just like
And then they slap their chest
And he slaps his chest
And they slap each other's chest
But they would come in and do a performance
Yeah
And they would crush those two
They knew each other before that?
Oh yeah
Okay
They had
They had met
Kind of cross paths
Just through Chicago Improv
But I don't think it was until
I think it might have been like
Once he got hired
Or a little bit before that
That they really like
Kind of like sat down
And sort of connected as like
Oh wow, okay
We have a lot of like
Yeah
You know
My theory is this
And I don't want to be confrontational
But I'm going to say something confrontational
Okay
It was crazy
Because it made everybody insane
It made everybody get all like
Cuckoo and weird
And act all fucking wild and shit
Yeah
You know
But then after
Talk about it
Talk about that shit
So it doesn't happen on other shows
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You should acknowledge
Anyway
Maybe the younger generation
Yeah, the younger generation
I don't know if he's going to get it
But
He is going to get it
I get it
Look at his eyes
Wait
They crinkle
They're cute
Yeah
You have like a Tom Hanks-y likability
Thank you
Yeah
I like the
The swings of you with him
Are so funny
It's like
You'll be like
You're like a Tom Hanks-like ability
I hate you
Yeah, yeah
I saw a comment that called me
Down syndrome James Franco
So that one stuck a little bit
Okay
You look like you're a part of the family
Yeah
Maybe underdeveloped
Yeah, see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I don't want to underdevelop
But still a Franco
But I like the stories of like
The grungy craziness
Like I'm envious of that
I think that's kind of over
It doesn't sound like those types of
Things are still happening
Yeah, it doesn't seem like it
Workplace toxicity
Bring it back
I will say that
But I don't know
Was it real?
Did it feel toxic in the moment?
It feels like that's what bonds you together
With each other
I mean, you know
It was
It's like
It is equivalent to what it is like
To be on drugs
When everybody in your work environment
Is also managing drugs
Yeah
Which is these big swings
So there's these like
Super elated moments
Where everyone's all together
And we're like
We fucking did it
We're living the dream
We're the best
We're the funniest people on the planet
And then it like
Swings to the next thing
Where it's like
Somebody took a shit
In the dressing room
And this fucking guy is
You know
Who did that?
Who did that?
This guy
Who did that?
This guy lied to get a job here
This guy lied about who he is
In order to get a job on the show
Oh, I remember that
Wait, what happened?
Oh my god, I remember that
Yeah, you want something
Not to cut out the show?
Let's talk about this
No, we're not gonna cut out
We're not cutting that out
Let's talk about this
What is this story?
What is this?
So there's a writer
Right?
Who's a writer?
Yeah, yeah
He's a writer, right?
He is a writer
He's out right now
He's out and about right now
And he's doing well
He seems to do alright right now
Okay, okay
We don't have to say his name
Oh, I will at the end of the story
Fuck this guy
Fuck this guy
Yeah
And he lied
Everything we're gonna tell you
Is alleged
Yeah
This is all alleged stuff
It's alleged
That we're gonna tell you
Well, he got fired
Alleged
I mean, he got fired
Allegedly got fired
Allegedly got fired
We will
I'll talk about it
We'll talk about it
They're all allegations
Allegations
But I definitely have
My own personal experiences
That I
But he also broke the heart
Yeah
Of a cast member
And
Oh, okay
Yeah, yeah
So there's that
Yeah
You remember that?
Yeah, I do remember that
And that's the one part
That we won't talk about
We won't talk about that
But understand that
He lied
Understand that that's there
And that underlines
All of the
There was actually
A couple of those things happening
Yeah
Oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah
I mean, there's the
Oh, yeah
We're not talking about this
I gotta tell you about this
How this guy
Thank you

And you know
Kind of built up a little
And I
So after
After one of the

He would have written for you
On this award show
You know
And he's like
I don't
I've never heard of this guy
I don't know who this guy is
Wow
Right?
Wow
Yeah
yeah didn't they call Trey too huh somebody called Trey Parker and said do you know this guy
allegedly yeah this is all this is all hearsay information so how does it start to get all right
so here we go things start unfolding like this and it all happened with uh the very keen eyes
of a writing assistant who was looking through the sketches that everybody submits for the table
reads and was reading a sketch and was like I'm fairly certain I've seen this sketch before
and he found the sketch uh it was like it might have been a youtube sketch like some other sketch
group had performed this sketch yeah this guy had just stolen it written or whatever and so he
brings it to people and then it just starts to unravel and it starts to unravel in a big way
yeah because he had like integrated himself personally with a bunch of people on the show
he had made inroads he had done all this weird stuff and as things start like falling apart it's
like everything is
you know
falling apart and he gets he somebody meets with the South Park guys and allegedly they're told
that he never that he did work with them they know who he is but they don't want to work with
him anymore oh so he did work there that there was there was an
issue that he had worked with those guys not necessarily on south park it was it was weird
but this is all alleged it's all whatever it was yeah it was vague yeah and it was enough for the
show to go you know what yeah i think we're gonna let this guy go yeah they let this guy go because
that also had to do with some of the other stuff that he was doing with the other employees on the
show and he i'm gonna tell you what he leaves i'm gonna say it he leaves okay you can say he leaves
the show and the next day yeah the next day and i'm i'm in the office by the way when this happens
a woman comes into the office if you say allegedly again i'm gonna go crazy no it's
i was there i i'll say what i saw was a woman came into the office and walked over into like
the business affairs area yeah and then allegedly what happened was is she said hey man i haven't
gotten paid for all the animation that i've done for this show and they said what we did pay we
paid the guy who was animating it and she goes no that's my husband he wrote the pieces
i animated them why haven't i been paid and they had like purchased like very at the time this is
like years ago so the the animation equipment that they purchased for this dude was astronomical
and he'd just gotten that like it was it was it was insane and so in like he he had so he was
married and that was a huge thing that people did not know no one knew he was married we don't need
to talk about it because you know even the fact that she was to watch this i don't want to have
to deal with that we all across you guys get it everybody's watching it gets it
this happened to your friend this happened to your girl just haunt your homie yeah and we went
fucking ham on this guy we went crazy we went crazy on this guy and uh uh i and one of the
crazy things that i did and this will give you some more story before i before i i will tell
why why are you gonna see his name i will because i'm gonna wait i'm gonna wait to the end because
because there's kind of funny now because i guarantee you there's people who are watching
this there's people who are watching this who will know who he is and they'll be like no that
guy i love that guy i love what that guy does yeah so you know so
yeah um and so uh
you don't care i don't care okay here's the other story yeah so one of the things i did when i was
mad is i posted on imdb because on imdb back then people had profiles like the actor on imdb you
would have a profile or a writer would have a profile you would have all your stuff but you
could comment on that and i commented and i said this guy's a fucking liar oh yeah like don't trust
him yeah uh you know whatever yeah he's a heartbreaker dude years later i'm like oh my god
years later yeah i get a message from imdb from some guy in like the uk and i believe it was in
ireland or somewhere that's right that's right that's right you remember this i remember i
remember yeah and i this theater got in touch with me and they were like this guy came to our
theater i remember i remember he said he worked with mad tv that he was with uh you know sec uh

he to just help us get our theater off the ground was it amsterdam and he's gone that wasn't
amsterdam that's where i had but this was like in like somewhere else and he like just
absconded with these people's money yeah uh and just did yeah allegedly allegedly uh yeah but i

Oh.
Well.
Now, years later, there's a lot of, like, comedy.
And stuff going on in social media.
Yeah.
And a lot of people get a lot of heat out of kind of doing sort of rage baiting
in the political atmosphere, right?
Right.
And so, like, if, say, there's, like, some big story, like, I don't know,
there was, like, this guy from California named Devin Nunes or something.
I don't know if anybody remembers this guy.
There was something about maybe a cow in the news about him, like, upset
or he wanted to have sex with a cow.
Yeah.
And then somebody started this Twitter account called Devin Nunes Cow.
You know?
And then that Twitter account, like, starts talking, you know?
Or, like, maybe something else happened.
Hunter Biden's laptop starts an Instagram.
Well, now that's what this guy does.
He starts these, like, focused, like, social media, like, buzz story things.
Yeah.
And, like, gets a lot of people who, you know, are usually, like, left-leaning
and angry to be like, yeah, I like this.
Oh, he's giving it to him.
He's really razzing the guys on the right.
And then they go and follow this guy.
He's a lefty.
Is he a lefty?
I mean, I. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, that's, I mean, that's what he is presenting.
I'm a lefty.
That's what he's presenting in his thing.
But, again, look, I don't trust this person.
Yeah.
I don't think he has politics.
He could be a righty.
I think he's doing what works.
No, but I think that, okay, there is this guy who just,
who's been lately blowing up on TikTok,
and he's been showing up on my algorithm.
And this is a guy I know to be a pathological liar,
but the same thing where everyone's sort of just, like, gassing him up,
and he's just on, like, the right side,
like, politics, and he's just, like, making it out to be.
He's just this, like, justice warrior.
And I'm over here, like, with just knowing all the lies he's ever told.
It's so crazy.
It's crazy.
It's crazy.
But they find their way.
They find their way.
These little schemey bastards find their way.
They do.
They do.
They do.
Yeah, they do.
So what's the name?
You're saying he's successful now because of the social media stuff.
What's that?
You're saying he's successful now?
I don't know how successful he is.
Yeah, we don't know.
I don't know how successful.
I don't know how successful the guy is.
And, again, this is all allegedly.
But it's my right not to like this guy,
and you don't have to like him either.
But I think he's a piece of shit.
And his name is?
I feel like this guy is revengeful.
And maybe not say his name.
Because he looks like a vengeful person.
He could be.
He also looks like he's probably got time in his hand.
Yes.
Did you hear about how someone else purchased the website for
and then Trump was, yeah.
He does it constantly.
Anytime you've heard that story,
he's usually the guy who bought the thing.
Wow.
I think Space Force.
I think he got SpaceForce.com.
And then they were like, or.gov.
And they were like, we got to buy it back from him or whatever.
Oh, that's a good idea.
Yeah.
To steal people's.
People do it all the time.
Bobby, you're so late to the game.
ElonMusk.com.
Can we buy that?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Elon's like, oh, I got to start my website.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, we should start buying.
Like, has somebody bought Happy Birthday?
Happy Birthday?
No.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Some old lady I heard bought Happy Birthday.
What did you, she bought the website, Happy Birthday?
No, no, no, no.
The song, the rights to the song, I think.
Again?
What do you mean again?
So we can't do it anymore?
No, you, it's a, no, you, wait, the rights, the rights.
Okay, I may have them wrong.
I thought maybe it was HappyBirthday.com.
No, no, no, no.
What I'm saying is this is back in the 40s or something.
Yeah.
Maybe I'm wrong.
I think you're right.
Somebody bought the rights to Happy Birthday
and those recently expired like in the last like five or six years.
Oh.
And now people can, now it is public domain.
I didn't say it.
I never sang it.
Because before that.
Yeah, I don't want to.
You could, you could, but that's also that,
that's also what people can tell how old you are as a,
as a performer and an actor.
If you get worried about singing Happy Birthday.
I know.
I'm old.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm 55.
How old are you now?
Huh?
How old are you now?
Weep that, weep that.
I mean, you got to be in your 40s.
Huh?
I mean, maybe.
Almost there.
Almost, yeah.
Almost there.
And then after Key & Peele, you,
Superstore.
Then I was on Superstore.
Yeah.
For how many seasons?
We did six seasons of Superstore.
That's amazing.
That was tight.
It was tight.
Yeah.
Right at Universal, dude.
Really?
Yeah.
That was a big heartbreak one for you.
I know.
Yeah.
I remember.
I auditioned a couple times.
Oh, really?
Oh, wow.
I came pretty close.
You tested, I think.
I tested, yeah.
For Mateo?
I don't remember, but I remember.
Do you remember what the character was?
For Nico Santas' role?
I think it was for Nico Santas.
It was Nico Santas' role.
Yeah, yeah.
But anyway, he got it, and congratulations.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But that's a good run, six years.
Yeah.
And I played a guy who used a wheelchair.
Yeah.
20, was that when they changed the amount of episodes,
or you still had 22 episodes there?
We did.
We had a few 22-episode seasons.
Yeah, good.
Yeah, because we made it to over 100 episodes.
Oh, that's amazing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
So you made a little chunk there.
We did, but not like we would have back in the day, dude.
I know.
Right at the end.
Right at the very end.
The very last season they were like, the people from NBC,
came in they're like hey we're so excited we're gonna be launching peacock you guys are gonna be
one of the big shows launching on peacock yeah oh cool and they're like you want to promote it
and we're like oh okay well yeah well what's what's the so what do we get paid for being on
peacock yeah normally after this kind of thing we go you know you sell it to syndication yeah
you make a lot of money they're like oh no we're not we already own it yeah we already paid you
yeah what a ripoff yeah dude it's like the toyota do you remember the toyota yaris
oh yeah those those yeah those ads you guys did at matt tv yeah yeah they made us
say toyota yaris a lot so we do a sketch of like a dating you're right so arden marine would be like
my date or whatever in a sketch i go you want to come inside my toyota yaris
and look in the camera right and they made and then i was in one of those remember yeah i was
the valet
yeah you were the valet yeah yeah and then i asked i go do we get extra money for this
yeah and they go no absolutely not yeah it's just a way they can make extra you know i mean and then
you know i mean but we're the salesman yeah yeah and which is a tool that was a lot of money you
guys should have gotten for that are you being real i'm being real yeah you should have gotten
paid for that but then i crashed it do you remember or no uh great you crashed the talk did you
crash it on the lot because i feel like we were driving it on the lot no no i took i took the keys
oh no and i went in an alleyway and i scratched the side of the car a common theme yeah yeah and
i brought it back and then the salesman was screaming at me and i go we don't get paid
you know what that was your argument yeah yeah why not yeah yeah yeah you know i mean it's a
what do you mean well it's sort of like i mean you've already crashed the car like maybe before
you crash i scraped scraped it a little bit on the side of a alley all right yeah yeah
damn it we're lost palmas you know those alleyways it was kind of industrial yeah yeah yeah it's like
it's like a european city over there you're just weaving it out yeah yeah like uh yeah yeah what's
that movie ronin yeah yeah yeah ronin yeah yeah ronin that was a good scene that movie
no let's check it out you'll like it man you like cars i like cars like cars going fast you like
heists usually yeah you like it okay good long form improv too i never learned how to do it
oh you do it all the time no i don't you're literally no when i remember i used to guys
see you guys at that io what's that what's it called improv olympic yeah the upright citizen
brigade theater whatever whatever yeah yeah yeah it'd be you guys on stage i'd come check it out
yeah and
you guys do long for form and i don't necessarily remember you coming to my improv shows
you wouldn't even say hi i'd just be in the back i love it yeah yeah but i remember thinking to
myself that's a skill set that i don't know teach us hut is that what boom chicago was was that long
form also no not really when i did i mean i think they do long form now but when i did it was like
short form uh improv so it's probably more like whose line is it anyway gotcha yeah but who how
do you explain to people listening to you
listening what long form improv is uh well long form improv is is is one of those things where it
is very much what it sounds like you can think of like you can think of like a long yeah you can
think of like uh whose line is it anyway scene where they might go all right we're gonna do a
scene and uh during this scene uh while they're acting it out i'm gonna ring a little bell and
when i ring it uh they're gonna go backwards and then when i ring it again they'll go forwards
again all right now just think about long form improv as there's no bell
it's just two people who just do a scene yeah but no nobody nobody has to ring a bell yeah but it's
long it could be long sure yeah what's the longest long form that you've done what you did the schwartz
and friends thing which what's the longest show i bet the longest long form improv show you've done
oh boy with one premise probably 20 minutes an hour right yeah dude i have no idea you don't know
you don't time yourself there's no timer i mean i don't know what the like yeah we did 40 there's
never that no no it's not like it's not like an endurance thing like we're not like we're gonna
get longer every every show is getting longer yeah but that should be in a thing of like the
longest long form ever done i mean a guinness book of worlds where i mean there are they've
done like improv marathons where they try to keep an improv show going oh but i don't know um
boring yeah boring the longest one is 150 hour performance set in 2015 boom whoa who said 150
hour that's uh from
key
uh salto janes and rob o'connor io west in front of a live audience yeah io west surprisingly i
thought it'd be here yeah when 2015 2015 i was here you're jealous
150 hours dude definitely not yeah i think it's all dude you can do it too colton gradually yeah
i mean yeah that's got to be the boring most boring show you've ever seen
uh maybe imagine imagine
somebody watching that for how many hours 150 hours do they eat at some point it has to like
get good though it has to get really yeah i see you know at one point it was probably like people
were like oh my god i can't believe i'm here for this yeah i'm watching this happen yeah did you
guys follow you row kelsey the girl who um rode so solo from california to hawaii by herself
oh no no one's followed her i've been watching her she arrived maybe i think i may have seen
did she swim or something no she had to clean her boat under the water and she was like oh my god
yeah like i just saw a bunch of people like we're like this is the scariest thing i've ever seen yeah
okay i saw that i saw she's on a like a little canoe-y thing yes yeah i've seen her on the
internet what is she doing yeah yeah what the fuck is she doing let me tell you so basically
she was just out to kind of um set the new women's record but as i think like half three quarters of
the way through she realized that she was actually like 500 miles like ahead or something like that
ahead of the men's record and so she smashed both and she arrived in hawaii two days ago
oh boy boy she just has the record she has the record yeah but i mean alone in the you know in
the pacific just night and day i don't know alone i mean 150 hours of ios
i mean there's not a boat in front of her no there isn't no one's watching she was
a boat in front of her there was so much what are you doing i'm not being sexist
no i think oh i wasn't even saying that why are you saying why are you even applying that i'm
i wasn't yeah yeah i think it's good i believe her i believe her okay so a lot of people i believe it
there was obviously a boat of dudes that's not what believe all
there's a lot of naysayers that basically like conspiracies that are like oh she wasn't there
alone but this girl was alone i could tell alone okay because a lot of the camera shots that hurt
is it's a yeah she was just well equipped and she had all the gear and all the water yeah yeah
run out of water out there what do you mean run out of water yeah of drinkable water you've won
yes colton yeah craziest question you are in the middle of ocean yeah where what about do you run
this is her i'd be like this is how she did it yeah and there was why is she doing it she took
more time no because there was a time when she had made so much headway and then a storm blew
her back to shore basically she was like crying because she was like i i was just you know rowing
and she got nowhere wow 43 days 43 days yeah i would not make it past catalina island
the fact that you think you could get to catalina is crazy i bet you money i could
could you catalina in a canoe yes we could a canoe
yeah uh i mean i don't you know i have not traversed the waters
to catalina what are the waves like exactly bobby you don't know anything about like like
wind pattern nothing surf you couldn't get past this the break you could take a canoe out there
man i don't think whatever she was what was she riding she had a very specific kind of she's got
like a kayak look at that that's like like a wider one oh okay yeah all right so you don't
think with that contraption i wouldn't make it i think it's you would know i would love them just
to put you in this thing yeah all right go for it
you just
yeah
but see you look at how buff her arms are your arms are gonna burn like after 10 minutes you're
not giving me a time limit it could take five years
i would do my own time you know what if we said like three days i don't know how long it takes i
don't know how far catalina is from the shoreline you know i mean but it should probably take you
like a day i would think yeah you could see it like a straight 24 hours yeah depending on
you know give me a week okay i'll do it in a week yeah yeah
what does google say can't you just ask 30 how long it takes to 30 miles from catal from long
beach to catalina island i would start 30 miles yeah it's not that far it's not that far i think
you can do it 30 miles without training all right let's do this come on now i'll die there's got to
be there's got to be a kayak company or some sort of yeah company uh who goes to catalina island
okay are there are there are they orcas no no okay no orcas are there great whites there's some way
- There's great Whites for sure.
- There's great Whites for sure.
What are you worried about a great white?
You're going to be in a fucking giant boat.
No, dude.
She had to clean it.
Look.
You don't have to do that.
Dude, you're going 30 miles.
You're not going to have to clean the boat.
Five years, maybe some barnacles, but 30 miles.
Okay.
So everyone in this room believes I wouldn't make it.
I believe you'd make it.
He said average rowers at two miles per hour would be 11 plus hours.
Average.
Average.
So two days.
15 hours.
Yeah, 15 hours.
I think Bobby can do it in two days, maybe.
Yeah.
What's the furthest distance you've traveled like on foot or something?
I mean, to go straight to a boat.
I'm just curious.
It's not a disc or anything.
Yeah, dude, not a disc, but how far have you walked?
I'm just curious if you could like.
I'm just trying to, you know.
I just want to know, too.
If we're setting the betting odds, it's like, oh, for comparison.
Throw it on Kalshi, right?
Yeah.
Oh, Kalshi is a prediction market.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So what are you asking me?
No, it's not a.
How far have I hiked?
What's your endurance like?
When you've dated, how long?
Okay, so I'll say this about Bobby.
Strangely fucking athletic.
Okay.
Like, honestly, I.
I saw him play ping pong.
But he has.
Yeah, that is true.
He's really good.
But low on the endurance, I think.
The endurance has never been your strong suit.
Yeah, I beat Paul Banks.
You did?
I was there.
You were there.
I was there.
Lead singer of Interpol.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I beat him.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
For two games of ping pong.
Ping pong.
He'll never beat me.
These are important facts.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So.
Did you do anything in that ping pong movie that came out?
No, they never asked me to do anything.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's not cool.
Marty Supreme?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's not cool.
You think that I.
I'm barely in anything.
That's wild.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You missed it, dude.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Go ahead.
I was going to say, I'm curious because you say that you like to.
You were partying at the Mad TV days and then you went and did Boom Chicago and Amsterdam.
I'm really interested of like that whole journey.
Was there crazy Amsterdam moments with like the improv troupe or were you guys just kind
of working and like.
Well, there's.
I mean, it's the Netherlands.
Yeah, man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, obviously.
But like, like what?
Like.
I mean, there's a red light.
I mean, there's.
I mean.
Drugs are like legal, right?
There's a lot of drugs.
Okay.
A lot of drugs are legal.
You know, so I was younger and I was, you know, definitely experimenting and probably
doing too much.
Too much experimenting with things.
Like you couldn't do it now in your fifties.
Huh?
Like you are, you know.
In my fifties.
Yeah.
How old are you?
I can just Google it.
Yeah.
How old is Google?
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, I'm 49.
I'm just.
Okay.
But, and no, I could not do the stuff that I did.
No.
It would just be.
And more, more so too is the, you just can't trust the drugs these days, you know.
You can't trust that.
Yeah.
It's a bummer.
But it is.
Yeah.
Like cocaine.
Yeah.
You can't trust the coke.
Yeah.
You used to be able to just do coke anywhere.
Yeah.
Anywhere.
You could take coke from anybody.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I remember one time I went to a wedding and I played, I played guitar for, this was such
a weird wedding.
This was in Amsterdam.
Yeah.
And it was for the bartender of the bar and this woman that he's married, they have now
since divorced, but she really wanted somebody to play Wild Horses while they walk down the
aisle.
Wait, wait, what is Wild Horses?
Is it the song?
It's the song.
Yeah.
I love the Rolling Stones.
Rolling Stones.
Yeah.
You know.
And so I learned it on guitar and like played it and sang it.
Oh, you can play the guitar.
I can play.
Did you not see him sing Night Ranger?
Oh yeah, that's right.
And, and so I did that.
And then, and then later I would, it was like downstairs in the bathroom to like, you just
use the bathroom and this guy came in and it was the woman's uncle who was in town for
the wedding.
And he's like, Hey, Hey, great job.
And I was like, Oh, cool.
And I like finished peeing.
I turn around and he's got a bag of coke out and a knife.
Hey, man, you know, like, like a Viking, like a, but, but he was like an old, maybe
he was Cuban or something.
Oh, like a Cuban.
Yeah.
Don't take that cocaine.
But, but you wouldn't do that kind of stuff anymore.
You got to just, you just be like, no, man, you got to get a fentanyl test thing.
Yeah.
But even those, it's like, because don't you just wait for the guy with the knife to do
it first?
And then you're like, okay.
Yeah.
But what if the thing is that you just takes one time, just one time.
One little speck needs to be in the one you do.
And that's not going to be in all this other stuff.
So yeah, exactly.
You can test the wrong part of it and it could be like, Oh, it's clean.
And we'll just test the part that you're going to snort.
Yeah.
But then that's tested.
You, now you got, what are you going to snort?
Oh, you have to, it dissolves.
I don't know how the testers work.
I'm pretty sure.
What Colton, how does it work?
Dude?
I don't know.
I don't do that stuff anymore.
How does it work?
I'm out of the game.
All right.
Okay.
Years and years.
You have three kids.
You have three kids now?
Yeah.
No, I mean, are you being real?
I'm dead serious.
I have three children.
Yeah.
He said he was blowing up an inflatable pool before he got here.
I thought for himself, I thought.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I assumed, Oh yes.
You know what I mean?
There's Superstore money or whatever.
Which you do today.
I blew up an inflatable.
Years after the show's off the air, I'm riding a water, a backyard water slide by myself.
Woo!
Superstore!
Oh, you have three kids.
You're still on Peacock?
All right!
Woo!
Okay.
I'm wrong.
I didn't know.
Three kids now.
Three kids.
Amazing.
When did you have your first one?
Well, my oldest kid, I had back in 2016 and she lives primarily in New York with her mom.
Okay.
And then I have two sons that I have with my wife, Jessica.
I met.
And you met one.
Yeah, yeah.
She seemed very sweet.
She's wonderful.
Yeah.
And funny.
She's very funny.
Yeah, yeah.
She seemed very funny.
She's very funny.
Yeah.
So, um, the show is out.
What else do you have going on?
You want to promote anything or no?
I say, what else do you have going for you?
Hey man, what else you got going for you?
Got the pool thing?
Hey, there you go.
Ah, yeah.
That's Adrian.
He's a lot, he's a lot older now.
Okay.
That's Adrian.
Go, go down.
What happened before?
Like the, no, there was something before that photo.
Before Adrian?
Oh, it's probably.
No, yeah.
Go down to your store.
Yeah.
Is that Lisa Gilroy?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That was a great clip.
That was so funny.
The Schwartz thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's from the Ben Schwartz and Friends.
So I do that.
Yeah.
Promote some stuff.
Randomly.
I'll go out and do the Ben Schwartz and Friends show.
And when, when, when, where is that?
They just tour all over.
He takes tours all over the place, but we've been, I performed at a Radio City Music Hall.
Wow.
I did the Sydney Opera House.
Yeah.
He goes out to London a lot.
He's got a lot of shows coming.
And then next to that, that is a dry erase board of a scene that I drew for Widow's Bay.
And it was my version.
Wait, wait.
Did you write it?
I did.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
No, no, no, no.
Are you being real?
Yeah, dude.
Why do you not believe anything he says?
No, no, no.
I'm going to just say something right now, Colton.
I didn't, I had no idea.
I apologize.
You didn't know that?
It would make sense because.
That's why I made the thing about being a producer.
And yes.
I looked it up.
Okay.
I just want to say.
I didn't know.
I didn't know that.
Okay.
So my girlfriend and I, we go, I heard this show.
Who told me the show was good?
Matt Jones.
Matt Jones.
Matt Jones.
Yeah.
So Matt goes.
Matt Jones is the show.
That's the best show on television right now.
Right.
So then the other night, Friday night, I go, let's just watch one episode.
Right.
We burn through the whole thing till the morning.
Wow.
It's not only funny.
Right.
But it's also scary as fuck.
And the balance between the two is so perfect.
That's the show you're producing.
Yeah.
That is amazing.
What a fucking show, dude.
What a show.
Did you cast the two?
I drew, if you watch the show, there's a scene where they go over a dry erase board.
Yes.
So that was me.
We were like talking about what we would imagine.
The scene looking like I drew it out.
You don't know that Katie Dippel wrote on the show.
It was you and Katie.
Dude, Katie Dippel created the show.
Wait, Bobby, how do you not know this?
How do you not know it?
Call her right now and say it's a good show.
No, no, no.
I'm calling her right now.
Don't call her.
Don't call her.
Please don't call her.
I'm like shocked you don't know this.
I thought that's why you brought it up.
Exactly.
That's why I thought you brought it up.
My mind is blown.
Wait.
Oh, wait.
My mind is absolutely blown.
Because you love this show.
That's why.
Oh, my God.
How did you not know this?
Did you see it?
I watched it first.
Forward it to voicemail.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Cut it out because I'm too nervous now.
I'll never see her again.
The whole thing about like why I even wanted to watch it.
And I could have sworn it was you and.
I'm with Bobby Lee right now.
If you could give me a call, I'd appreciate it.
Okay.
Ooh, producer voice.
Yeah, producer voice.
Oh, my God.
Following up.
So I believe it's the strongest show I've seen in a very long time.
Okay.
Okay.
It's got the right amount of humor.
And scary, like I said.
Okay.
I think the casting's perfect.
Right.
And I can't wait for the second season.
Are you guys in production?
We're going to start writing the second season.
Okay.
Good, good, good.
Because it is.
Have you seen it?
The first episode.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
But I got it burned.
I want to watch it with my girlfriend.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's so strong and scary.
And, you know, what I love about the show, too, Colton, is, is that there's kind of
standalone episodes where it's like.
Because I don't want to give it away,
but there are different creatures and things,
like mythology.
on the island
that you're like
super surprised about
yeah
even the subtle humor
like you know
I don't think
I'm giving it away
when he's staying
at the hotel
sure
right
he's looking at
all the game
right
all the different games
yeah
like all the little
like if you read them
they're very funny
you know what I mean
and dark
you know
it's very fun
you know
it's kind of
it's the root of
like you know
Stephen King
you know world
yeah
you know
it's almost
you know
think of like
the town in Jaws
but if it was told
from the point of view
of the mayor
of the town
yes
yes
you know
so like
it's a super fun show
I think a lot of people
like it
and the big thing
that I'd love
is people who get scared
like a lot of people
be like
oh but it's a spooky show
and I get too scared
and it draws up
my anxiety
so I can't even like
watch the show
this is not like that
this always has
like a release
for your anxiety
and even if it doesn't
have that
I want to make an argument
can I make an argument
against that
watching the show
yeah
yeah
yeah
me and my girlfriend
screamed
oh I think
it'll get your anxiety up
we screamed
during the show
many times
but I'll say it like this
so we used to watch
my wife and I
would watch
Game of Thrones
and then after
Game of Thrones
we would watch
an episode of
what was the show
with the two women
in New York
Broad City
Broad City
we'd watch an episode
of Broad City
we'd just watch
like a palate cleanser
Broad City
so that we'd just like
have a laugh
and go alright
okay okay okay
because that was
a little intense
so I'd watch
so I feel like
what Widows Bay does
is it does all of that
in one show
yeah
so that you still get
you know the raw
even the font
is good
yeah right
right
people love the Widows Bay
like a Salem's Lot
you know what I mean
like it has a 70s-ish
you know what I mean
font
classic
we were watching
a lot of that stuff
in the room
we would always have
like times in the room
where people would like
put up their favorite
like horror movie clips
and like scenes
and stuff
you know so
there's a lot of mood
in there
in that room
and mood building
as well as just
the writing of the story
it's so good
and then it's like
at the end of that
I'm not gonna
reveal it
but at the end
but at the end
there's definitely like
have you seen it Alex?
I've seen one episode so far
why has everyone
only seen one episode?
it's so good
I did it in prep for this
but I knew that
he was a part of the show
at least
I didn't know
but I did start it
two days ago
yeah
it's so good
what are you looking at?
I'm seeing if Katie
she's not
I don't want to talk to her
that's crazy
she created it
yeah yeah
so Katie's the one
that did the prank on me
and she does
she does
what is my
hey this is
what an
incredible
and it's so shocking
because I literally saw
the whole thing
going oh that's a strong show
dude you saw the whole thing
it says
created by
Katie Dippel
at the beginning
yeah I don't watch
and she wrote
the first episode
and the last episode
yeah but there was like
a Japanese dude
directing it
you saw that
yeah yeah yeah
what is that?
he only looks for
Asian credit
yeah yeah
direct him to
who's who
who do who do
you know what I mean
and I'm like
who the fuck is this
so in your mind
you're like
it's a Japanese dude
uncle
uncle
uncle Chong
uncle Chonging it
it's Hiro Murai
he's not Asian?
huh?
Hiro Murai
you don't know who
Hiro Murai is either?
bro
Atlanta?
come on
I know Hiro well
because
you would have worked with him
at some point
no no I know Hiro
yeah
he's so talented
he's incredibly talented
yeah
he's incredibly talented
and
here's how I know Hiro
he's dating
married or dating still
or maybe they're no longer
this is not a good way
of getting into
how you know somebody
but I was on a sitcom
yeah
right called
splitting up together
yep
series regular
nice man
great
and
