Which Riddle Riddle?

#43: He's Mimble!!!

00:00:02

???

This is a HeadGum podcast.

Adal

Welcome back all you idiots. It's Hey Riddle Riddle. I'm Adal Rifai. I'm JPC. I'm Erin Keif. That was rude.

JPC

Don't want to be an American ritty yet. Put it in the dead, in the pussy, pussy, pussy. What was that?

Erin

I literally told myself I will not sing today. Do you ever see that musical? Uh, no, but I heard the soundtrack for it.

Adal

Yeah, it's pretty... You know what song I think is super catchy?

Erin

What's that? 1... 2...

00:01:05

Adal

Oh wow, you threw some spice on the cunts on that one, didn't you?

Erin

Can I ask you something real quick, Erin?

Adal

What's up? At some point in the last couple seconds here, you tossed in there real quick that you told yourself you weren't going to sing today, and then you launched into 10 songs.

Erin

Oh you started, you, everyone rewind and tell me how this happens.

Adal

Welcome back, Ridiots. This is Hey Riddle Riddle. I'm Adal Rifai. I don't think you can say Ridiots anymore. Wait, really? Is that offensive, Ridiots? Uh oh, Adal's cancelled. Oh no. Do you think that our fans- Wait, can I explain myself? No. Ridiots is short for Rheumatoid Arthritis Idiot.

JPC

That's better. That's worse. Do you think our fans would consent to being called radiots as the thing that... I don't think anyone wants to have a negative connotation to a word.

Adal

Tweet us at AmericanRidiot if you prefer we call you radiots. If you prefer we don't, tweet us at UnAmericanRidiots. Would you rather be a radiot or a puzzle basalt? Or a dookie. Wasn't that a Green Day album?

00:02:06

JPC

Yeah, it was for sure. It was one of them. For sure, Duke, he was a Green Day album. But I told you guys before we started recording, not two minutes ago, I do not want to talk about Green Day.

Adal

You said you don't want any Avengers spoilers.

JPC

Yes.

Erin

I didn't want to sing. JBC didn't want to talk about Green Day and you didn't want any Avengers spoilers.

JPC

Yeah, Billy Joe. Yeah, I've seen the movie, but I don't want to hear any spoilers. Billy Joe has beat the shit out of me on three separate occasions. Billy Joel beat the shit out of me? The P.O. man himself.

Erin

And how many times did you deserve it out of the three?

JPC

I would say three out of three.

Erin

That's what I thought.

JPC

It was a turkey. Perfect game for Billy Joe beating the shit out of me. You know he's 5'1".

Erin

Who?

JPC

Billy Joe. Joe Armstrong? Really? Yeah. No, I don't know. I was asking if you knew. I don't know.

Erin

Wait a minute, that cadence was misleading. Are you Old Man Puzzles or what?

JPC

Erin, are you trying to pick me up?

Erin

Yeah.

JPC

Is that your pickup line at a bar?

Erin

Hey, um... Are you Old Man Puzzles or what? Hey, sorry, my friend and I were looking over here and we thought like maybe this is probably stupid.

00:03:13

Adal

I'm here with my wife.

Erin

What?

Adal

I'm here with my wife. It wasn't tucking you. We're divorced.

Erin

I'm sitting at the bar and you just scooch in front of me. Yeah.

Adal

You know how weird it is to scooch in front of someone who's sitting on a stool at the bar?

Erin

I know what I did. I'm gonna order a drink in a second. We were like, is that old man puzzles? Is that old man puzzles? Can I get you anything? Oh my god.

JPC

Are you drinking anything?

Erin

Yeah, I'll have a martini I guess.

JPC

I'm a bartender. I'm not hitting on you.

Adal

Would you like to order something? Bartender, would you get her martini and then also the tab for that? Okay.

Erin

Now who is who?

JPC

I'm his wife. Ex-wife. And I'm the bartender, and we have different voices.

Erin

And who is Old Man Puzzles? J-P-C! J-P-C!

JPC

It's as easy as O-N-P! Old Man Puzzles. I will be old man. Doing some riddies and puzzies. It's entirely too much singing on this week's episode. Should we start over? Yeah, we should.

00:04:16

Adal

Sorry, I'm underwater now.

JPC

Alright, Zoidberg, get out of here. I will be old man puzzles this week and what a week it is. Let's do a quick news and recap of the week.

Adal

You said Zoidberg, get out of here. Is that all that reference? Remember Zoidberger?

JPC

Is that a fun joke? What to do with that? Do I grind the show to a halt? I already did. And beat my friend verbally? I'm your friend?

Adal

Everyone heard that. Hope being that it would be the start of something fun. JPC's my friend. Or do I let it slide? Let it slide or like a Zoidberger. Welcome to Zoidberger, can I thank your order?

Erin

I'm not paying attention. I'm looking at my cherry tomatoes thinking if I should have any more and risk a tummy ache. What do you think, Adal? Adal, what do you think?

Adal

Here's what I think. I think we should record some video while doing the podcast, and I'm going to take those cherry tomatoes, and I'm going to toss them into your mouth like a blue man would.

Erin

They're going to hit me in the eye.

Adal

They're going to hit you in the eye, and that's going to be a good podcast. That's a bad show. No one should listen to it. Old Tomato Eye Keif.

00:05:22

JPC

So, I have a very special episode. Now, I know that everything that you've listened to thus far is proving to be the opposite, but I do actually have a very special episode planned.

Adal

Good episode or special?

JPC

Special. I would never hope to presume to call what we are doing good.

Adal

Yeah, CBS doesn't air the special wife. They are the good wife.

JPC

Yeah, CBS doesn't air the special doctor. They air the good doctor.

Erin

NBC doesn't air the special place. What? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

Adal

Fucking comedy police over here. We got pulled over by the comedy police.

Erin

Do you know that Billy Joel is 51?

JPC

I did know that. Do you know that Billy Joel is 51? I've heard that, yes. We have a very special episode because all of the riddles that we are doing on today's episode have been submitted by a very... What the fuck is wrong with you?

???

I don't know.

JPC

Damn. I did the same thing and got called his friend. Erin, you fucked up.

Erin

That was so funny.

00:06:23

JPC

Am I right? By a very special friend of ours. So this is all by one person that we know. Not a good friend, a special friend. I would go so far as to say this is an NBC's The Good Friend of ours. This is fellow World News Tonight cast member, Patrick Connelly. Oh, the best. Yes, Pad is the best. I asked Pad shortly before we recorded tonight. I was like, Pad, we're going to use some of the riddles that you submitted. I'm going to give you credit at the top of the episode. How would you like me to give you credit? Like, what would you like me to read off as your credentials? I guess he did not know that I was fucking with him when I said that, so he sent me over some real things that I will read, which is I never intended to give him any credit. But if you like these riddles that Pat is sending out, you can find Pat on his own podcast. He's got a podcast on Arcade Audio. He is the host of the Our Father podcast.

Erin

I've been on that. I've been on it before.

JPC

I believe you've both been on that podcast before. It was a blast. He's also a writer on the Comedy Sports Trivia show, Let Sleeping Dogs Lie, and if you're in Chicago that's at Comedy Sports, it's Mondays at 8pm. And you can also see Pat doing World News Tonight, Saturdays at 8 and 10, with the three of us knucklebags.

00:07:35

Erin

He was on Jeopardy.

JPC

He was on Jeopardy. Pat was on Jeopardy. He lost to... He lost on Jeopardy. Baby.

Erin

Also, Pat is the one who bring the snacks to World News. So if you ever see us eating jelly beans in between shows, you can thank Pat.

JPC

If you ever see me eating snacks, you say a fucking prayer to thank Pat for the snacks that I'm eating. Because, guaranteed, those snacks came from that man. Are these riddles he created or riddles he found? Adal, I'm so fucking thankful that you asked me that question. Thank you. Adal, so Pat says, hey gang, love all three of you and the podcast. So the fourth person in the room, the podcast.

Erin

Did he rank us?

JPC

Yes, Erin. Do you want me to read the rankings that he put on here? And Erin, let me tell you before I finish this question. You do not. You do not want me to read this. Alright, let's keep moving then. Pat says as a trivia geek, he was on Jeopardy, there's nothing that makes me happier than the overwhelming feeling of smugness of getting an answer before anyone else. And I'm at my happiest when I'm listening to this show. Wow, Pat, thank you. I'm also a big fan of word games.

00:08:37

Adal

A little front-handed compliment.

JPC

So I thought I'd help out by including a hint in each of these riddles. So he did give a hint in each of these riddles, but the answer is hidden within each riddle as an anagram. And if you need a hint, me as Old Man Puzzles will share that some of the text is bolded and that will be your hint for the puzzle. And I'm sorry you said he did create these? Pat created all of these himself. Oh yeah, and I guess if you do want something to write with, then you can. Erin, let me cut your finger real quick.

Erin

Okay, I'll use it. My blood. My own blood. Are you using it?

JPC

The hint is, after I read the riddle, if you do need the hint that I can give you what text is bolded, and that is an anagram for the answer. Does that make sense? Okay, cool. Of course it makes sense. My friend. My good friend. Wow, you're really milking this friend thing, which was just a slip of the tongue on my part. All right, so as an example, since we usually start off with a warm-up, a pet has provided a warm-up. So I will just give you the full text of the riddle. Solve this one, and JPC will cite a pet. There's an anagram hidden in there. Spaghetti. Yes, correct. The bolded text in there is site a pet, which is an anagram for the word spaghetti.

00:09:55

Erin

This rules. I'm having so much fun and not just because I'm winning Adal.

JPC

And Adal. Erin took off for sure. She Mia Ham to the round her head.

Adal

Look, it's the world championship.

Erin

And I'm wearing Mia Ham's sports bra, so that works.

Adal

Not a similar sports bra, me and Hail Sports bra.

Erin

That cost me $80,000 and I don't regret it. Remember how people thought that was scandalous? And it's like the most normal fine thing. Anyways.

JPC

What? A woman's body?

Erin

Yeah. Everyone was like... What was that tone? I'm ready for another one, JBC.

JPC

Okay, so this next one is a little bit longer. But again, I'm not going to give you where the anagram is until we've... We need a hint. Yeah, exactly. Nobody ever wants me around. When I'm least wanted is when I am found. You may learn about me from a bad teacher or the long-winded sermon of an old preacher.

Adal

Billy Bob Thornton.

00:10:55

JPC

And Pat does say that if Adal talks in the middle of these riddles, I'm allowed to hit you as hard as I can. Which, by the way, is like the whisper of a leaf. Not very hard. Or long-winded sermon of an old preacher. Yet I can be banished by a good book or by giving your local red box a look. I'll stick close beside you when we're alone, but invite your friends over and I'll fly from your home. I can be found all alone I can be found all alone in a bedroom. If I'm with you, it's your fault for giving me headroom.

Erin

Loneliness.

Adal

You got real salacious at the end. Is it Nellie Furtado? Do you think that headroom is code for? Well, the way you said it, you said, I'll give you head room. Oh, gotcha.

Erin

Is Nellie Furtado okay?

Adal

Um, I mean, she's fucking fantastic. Okay. Why do you say that?

Erin

I haven't heard anyone mention her in a long time.

Adal

She did that song with Timbaland. And then she had, I'm like a bird, and she's Canadian, so she's got healthcare. Yes. Yes, Queen. Yes.

00:11:55

Erin

Yeah. Okay. All right. I'm actually glad I asked. I feel like I feel a little comforted.

Adal

Can we stop and can someone Google Nelly Furtado? Yep. I'm on it. And also, wait, JPC, you googled Nelly Furtado to see if somebody's made that joke. Erin. Erin, you're going to Google Nelly Furtado.

Erin

Oh, she has a great little pixie cut. Oh, that turn off the lights, the song that up. So she was born in 78.

JPC

Okay, Nelly Frittata, when you Google that, you get an image search, you get a bunch of pictures of St. Louis rapper Nelly eating an egg-based breakfast dish, and it's like thousands of these pictures. And it looks like they're not doctored at all, and they're all different frittatas.

Adal

Does anybody have an image that says it's getting hot sauce in her? No, that has not been done, but there are several frittatas that have little band-aids over them.

Erin

Okay, she made an album called The Ride in 2017.

Adal

So it sounds like she's doing pretty good. She's doing great!

00:12:57

Erin

With such tracks like Pipe Dreams, Cold Hard Truth, Sticks and Stones.

Adal

Sounds like she's going through something. So you're right. We're both right.

Erin

Yeah, she did separate from her husband in 2016. Who was her husband?

Adal

Her partner? She married the lead singer, Sum 41, right?

JPC

Yeah, she was in Max Payne, the movie, and she has a child whose name is Nevis.

Erin

Nevis, yeah.

JPC

Unfortunately. Oh, he's the... Maybe Nevis listens to our show so easy.

Erin

Oh, she married a sound engineer.

Adal

Sorry, KJ. KJ, thumbs up, thumbs down with Nellie Furtado. Thumbs up! Erin, real quick, and JPC, three-part harmony, Nellie Furtado, I'm Like a Bird. One, two, three. I'm like a bird on the Rifai way

JPC

I'm like a bird flying through the sky every day like a bird with my wings off. We said no singing up top.

Erin

In the car I went do not sing.

00:14:02

JPC

So what in this riddle do you think that Nellie Frittato is it? Or Frittato? Oh right, we're solving it riddles. Did I get it right? Frittato. Yes, we're solving riddles. And your answer was? Loneliness. Loneliness is incorrect. Adal Boredom is correct.

Adal

Can I say something? No, you can't. I don't want to put Pat on blast because Pat's a very good friend. He's currently in Ireland. He's a wonderful, wonderful friend. He did a riddle for the season two finale of Hello from the Magic Tavern as his bridge troll character. And I'm pretty sure boredom was the answer for that one.

JPC

Well, maybe this is saying something a little deeper about Pat and kind of things that he's going through right now. Yeah. And he's thinking about these riddles while he's listening to our podcast. So maybe our podcast is very bored. Dumb.

Adal

But we finally had a magic tavern. Hey Riddle crossover. That's true. Besides Matt Young doing an ad.

JPC

Does anyone know, and Arnie was on the show. Arnie Parrott did the theme song. Did anyone know what word there was in that that had an anagram for boredom? Morehead. What was it? Headroom. It was bedroom. Headroom doesn't have a lot of the letters that boredom has.

00:15:12

Adal

You know that character Max Bedroom, the 80s character?

JPC

Cool. So I would like to see a scene. Erin, in this scene you will be playing Nellie Furtado and Adal, you're going to be a fan who has met Nellie Furtado on the street and you're going to just be wondering what she's been up to for the past few years. Dead stop. That's a dead stop. That's our first dead stop.

Erin

Yeah, I think because no one else is gonna, how else are people gonna recognize her?

JPC

So you think Nellie Furtado is walking around humming her own songs, just waiting for people to recognize her? Okay, I'd love to continue the scene.

Adal

Oh my god, are you Nelly Furtado?

Erin

Oh my gosh, what? What makes you say that about me?

Adal

Because you're humming, I'm like a bird.

Erin

Am I? Sorry, sometimes just my subconscious just comes out.

Adal

Yeah, okay. You haven't done anything in a while.

Erin

Oh, I did an album in 2017, did you not?

Adal

Oh, I don't think you did. I think I would know. I'm a big fan, I think I would know if you did an album. How sound engineer. There's a tan line where your wedding ring was.

00:16:21

Erin

He is great. Good. We're not together.

Adal

Well, right now, because you're walking alone singing your song.

Erin

Well, here's the thing. If you're a true fan, name three of my songs.

Adal

I'm Like a Bird. I'm Like a Bird remix. That song you did with Timbaland. I'm a huge fan. You know, I thought always you should have done a whole animal song. You should have done I'm Like a Bird, I'm Like a Snake, I'm Like an Alligator, I'm Like an Emu, I'm Like a Dodo, I'm Like a Spider, I'm Like a Fly. Those are the only animals I know.

Erin

Some of those were insects. Excuse me? Nothing.

Adal

Insects is animals.

Erin

I don't think so.

Adal

How's that? Defend yourself.

Erin

Sorry, I'm going to Google that.

JPC

Defend yourself.

Erin

No, put up your hands. No, I'm going to Google it.

JPC

Excuse me. I couldn't help it over here. I'm a bug doctor on sabbatical from a university. I sent an inappropriate picture to a student. It was of a bug penis.

Adal

So are you on sabbatical or are you fired? What's a sabbatical? Oh, is that Nellie Furtado?

00:17:34

JPC

Yeah, she's not very nice. Promiscuous girl! That's the one!

Erin

I forgot! I forgot that one was a good thing of it.

JPC

You don't know.

Erin

You're Nellie Furtado and you only know.

JPC

That was my little brother's ringtone for a while.

Erin

Uh-oh.

JPC

Ironically? I think he just really liked that song. It's a good song. It's a special song. It's a special song. This week on a special episode of Nellie Furtado's discography. Okay, ready for your next riddle? Erin, are you ready too?

Erin

Okay, let me see. I'm going to check in with myself really quick, okay?

JPC

Sure.

Erin

Hey, Erin. Oh, sorry. You scared me, Erin. So you're just really pale and you have kind of sleepy eyes. Yeah, I was just checking in. Are you ready for the next riddle? I think so.

Adal

This is going to be our first ever sad stop.

Erin

I'm fine!

JPC

Carry on! We can't have gone 40 episodes without doing a sad stop. We have to have done sad before. Just for me, idiots. Should it be sad stop or sad sack? Dead sad.

00:18:36

Erin

Dead sad. I'm fine.

JPC

I'm good to have, but you can't be proud of having me. I am no secret, but if you claim me, I will flee. I free women of vanity, my presence blushes men. All your pride I'll set aside, it's a useless sin. Really want a hint for this? I'm hiding in the middle. But you don't need to prove you know me by answering this riddle. Jimmy Eat World. It's Jimmy Eat World. I'm hiding in the middle. How'd you know? It just takes some time. Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride. Go with everything I beat.

Erin

Can somebody make a Spotify playlist of every song that has been mentioned on this episode?

JPC

I don't think that we're on Spotify. Oh, I guess like our episodes are on Spotify, but pieces of our episodes on Spotify.

Erin

No, but I mean like every song we mentioned go through and get the actual artist version and make a Hey Riddle Riddle as garbage playlist.

JPC

I think it would be pretty embarrassing for us because it would just be Third Eye Blinds' Jumper like 40 times. I think I've done Shaggy's It Wasn't Me like a thousand times on this show. I know six songs.

00:19:42

Erin

Tell me, can you read that again?

JPC

Yes, I can tell you that I'll read that again. Thank you. I'm good to have, but you can't be proud of having me. I'm no secret, but if you claim me, I will flee. I free women of vanity. My presence blushes men. All your pride will set aside. It's a useless little sin. I keep putting use a little in there. It's just it's a useless sin. Really want to hint for this? I'm hiding in the middle, but you don't need to prove you know me by answering this riddle.

Erin

Fart.

JPC

Hole. Fart hole. That's a fart. Stop. Fart hole.

Erin

Was one of us close?

JPC

No, fart and hole were both not close. Fart hole son.

Erin

Adal, what do you think it is? I'll take credit.

Adal

I'm really keen into trying to unpackage it. It frees women of vanity? If I free women of vanity, my presence blushes men. Yeah, so that part right there is what I'm kind of trying to dissect.

JPC

Okay.

Adal

To be fair, I'm also trying to dissect a fetal pig, additionally. So my texture is split. It smells like straight up formaldehyde in here. Oh, I'm sorry this is such a formaldehyde.

00:20:54

Erin

It really hurt my feelings when JPC walked into it. It smells like Erin in here. Oh, there's a pig here.

Adal

There's a fetal pig in here. But I put lipstick on it.

Erin

Okay. Let's see. This is hard.

Adal

Yes, correct. Erin, correct.

Erin

Points. I guess it's okay with Adal. I would like to know which word is bold.

Adal

Um, no. Okay, well... I don't want to help anymore, but...

JPC

The word that is bold, it's actually two words, it is blushes men.

Adal

See I knew it.

JPC

As in the line, I free women of vanity, my presence blushes men.

Adal

Shmimblehoof. Is it shmimblehoof?

JPC

Shmimblehoof, yeah. So, Padd's an idiot and the answer that he put to this riddle was shmimblehoof. And you got it.

Adal

He's... he's... mimble?

Erin

Is it one word or two words?

JPC

It's one word. Okay, hold on. I'm gonna stop you right there. Put your pens and phones down. I'm going to see a scene. This is a scene from the pilot episode of a television show called He's Mimble. Now before the show can actually begin, as you know with live studio audience shows, we have like a front man come up and warm out the crowd. Erin and Adal, you are both the front men that come out and warm up the crowd and it is your It is your job to kind of tag team, explain to the crowd the show that they're about to see. I will tell you that He's Mimble has a very complicated premise.

00:22:21

Adal

Hey IFC audience members, how we doing? This is Charlie. And I'm Charlie. We're going to tell you what's up.

Erin

And I'm Charlotte, and we're your warm-up comedians.

Adal

So we need to tell you a little bit about the show because it's a little complex. Stop fucking clapping. We need to tell, why did we have the applause I'm facing?

Erin

I know you're excited to watch He's Mimble, but a few key things before we get started.

Adal

Mm-hmm. You should know that in this world that the show is set in, scientists have combined a man and a thimble together to form a... A Mimble!

Erin

All right, well, Mimble goes on all sorts of misadventures. He falls in love. He loses his job.

Adal

He is used for someone sewing. Those are the three episodes we have.

Erin

They hired both of us to do this, and I think we're doing great. So are you excited to meet Mimble?

JPC

Okay, a page runs up to both of you and hands you a big, big, big page full of rewrites.

00:23:25

Adal

Oh, here's page with a page. Oh. Don't say my real name. Huh? Okay, so seems like we've made a few changes based on your lack of applause. The writers have been in the wings ready. Yeah, so... Those are the writers, yep. So it seems like instead of scientists crossing a man with a thimble, the new show is crossing a woman with a... symbol! Yes, it's Wimble. This woman weighs 2,000 pounds, so this show is called Wimbleton. It's kind of a fun play.

Erin

But we're getting more rewrites. Alright, and this show is, we're actually combining a mouse with a... Another mouse.

Adal

It's called Basic Mouse.

Erin

Oh, another page of rewrites? Uh oh, these writers, these are just scratches of pencil and panic.

Adal

This will be fun.

Erin

So we've combined the concept of God with the concept of a pimple.

Adal

This is called Gimble. And then he has a little horse named Pimble.

00:24:28

Erin

Oh, the writers seem happy with this choice.

Adal

Oh, it's not a thumbs up, it's a middle finger. The writers are pissed. Well, you wrote it.

Erin

And, oh, and we're here at the beginning of tears.

JPC

Remember, first line from the show is... I'm sorry, my name is Ted Sizemore. I'm the president of the network. Tom, say your real name, Tom. My name is Tom Penisbutt. I'm the president of the network, this show has been cancelled.

Adal

One of my favorite bits to do is to be like, to start a classroom scene and be like, my name is John Finger in a Button. Yes, I get it, John. Just like John Belushi. I've heard it all before, but to totally ignore the obvious joke.

JPC

Speaking of ignoring the obvious joke, yes, we're still in the middle of this riddle. Blushes men. Is it one word or two?

00:25:31

Erin

I've already said that it's one word. That's impossible.

JPC

It's impossible? No. There's not an M or a P, so it can't be impossible. You see what I did? You guessed the word. Who are you? That's devastating to me. Embellish.

Erin

Blemishes.

JPC

Okay. So keep all of that in mind. I'm going to read this riddle again. I'm good to have, but you can't be proud of having me. I'm no secret, but if you claim me, I will flee. I free women of vanity. My presence blushes men. All your pride, all set aside. It's a useless sin. Really want to hint for this? I'm hiding in the middle. But you don't need to prove you know me by answering this riddle. Oh, we don't have to answer the riddle.

Adal

That's the answer. That's the answer, yeah.

Erin

I'm tired. I don't know.

Adal

Um, I bet the audience is fucking losing their minds. I bet the audience is losing their minds. Give us the first letter.

00:26:33

JPC

Uh, no. The title of this riddle, this is another clue, is called, You Don't Have to Prove Anything. The first letter is H. Humbleness. Yes! The answer is humbleness! Adal, tell them what you've won.

Adal

I've won the chance to sit out the next Riddle.

Erin

Oh, I wanted that!

Adal

Everybody wanted that, Erin.

JPC

Everybody wanted that. No, but you have taken the lead. It is now two to one.

Adal

I'd like to see a quick scene. Great. JPC, you are coming into the office that you work at. We'll say it's 8.55. You're a little bit early for your 9 o'clock call. And Erin is your co-worker. And you are coming to the office. You have kids. And your kids have tried to explain to you what a humble brag is. You've misunderstood wildly. And now you're going to present to Erin what you think a humble brag is.

Erin

Happy Friday.

JPC

Happy Friday. How was the rest of the week for you?

00:27:37

Erin

Great. I'm about to go to the Keurig. Do you want a coffee?

JPC

Well, I don't mean to do a humble brag, but I already pooped this morning before I left the house.

Erin

Josh, what?

JPC

I don't mean to do a humble brag, but I already pooped this morning before I left the house, so I don't need to have a copy.

Erin

Okay. Well, I'm going to have a coffee, Josh. Well, I'll walk over there with you. Any plans this weekend?

JPC

Yeah. Again, I don't mean to do a humble brag, but I bought four new lawn chairs.

Erin

Uh, great.

Adal

Yes.

Erin

Great. Are you going to use them? It's supposed to snow all weekend.

Adal

And as we continue with the scene, uh, JPC, your dad has an even wilder misconception as it goes on.

JPC

Okay. Okay. Uh, yeah, I guess it, I guess it will snow.

Erin

So I guess, um, I'm going to go skiing this weekend.

JPC

Oh, excellent. Uh, where are you going skiing?

Erin

Oh, just like up north, just in Vermont.

00:28:40

JPC

Oh, yeah. North of here in Vermont. Well, I don't mean to do a humble brag, but, um... When I have pancakes, I can eat a whole bottle of syrup. On just three pancakes.

Erin

Did you just learn the words humble brag today, Josh?

JPC

Whoa! Why do you ask? Actually, my son Joshua, which is my name.

Adal

And GPC, by the end of this sentence that you're saying, we're going to learn that you're actually Mimble, the man who is crossed with a thimble.

JPC

Anyway, my son Joshua, who was adopted because, as we all know, I don't have a human penis.

Erin

Hey Josh, can you hop away? Can you hop away and get a little thimble body away from me?

JPC

Well, I can. I don't mean to humble brag, but I am full of holes. So, you know I can really pass through. The office.

Erin

Well, it's about time to get ready for work.

JPC

We got a couple more minutes. We got a couple more minutes. We got a couple more minutes. Happy Friday Meredith. Steve!

00:29:42

Adal

Oh hey, my man. How's it going? Great. Going great. Weekend plans? Well, you know, probably just have some cheese, avoid all the traps. Don't mean to humble. What the fuck did you say, Steve? Said have some cheese, avoid all those traps.

Erin

You're on the wrong show, you're supposed to be on that mouse show.

Adal

Yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm, what happens when the mouse and the mouse get together? Wait, is this not the right- No. This isn't mouse party?

Erin

We got some rewrites.

JPC

This isn't mouse party?

Erin

All right, give me another riddle. I'm ready to prove myself again.

JPC

Give me a riddle to see my son. I'm gonna do a riddle on Hey Riddle Riddle.

Adal

Oh, I love Kid Rock.

JPC

Okay. Fiance is off to display me, but gemstones not so. Always offered by puppies, but from cats it's touch and go. Held with hands wide open and not inside a fist. Awkward out in public when you're alone is when I missed. Awkward out in public when you're alone is one of the best. Love and kisses. Affection. Relationship. Kingdomship. Erin? What? You have nailed it.

00:30:48

Erin

No, don't joke.

JPC

The answer is affection. Is it? It is. What was the anagram? Fianc's oft. Hmm.

Erin

Interesting.

JPC

And the answer there is affection. Fans says off display me but gemstones not so always offered by puppies but from cats at session go. Held with hands wide open and not inside a fist awkward out in public when you're alone is when I miss. It is affection.

Erin

Adal, tell the truth. Did you know and you want you let me get it?

Adal

Yeah, I will say yes. Wait a minute. I feel like in my head I'm imagining Pat at home writing these and he's going through like all these different emotions where he's like, this is boring and then he's like, I wish I had someone here. He's like, no, I should remain humble.

JPC

Yes, so I believe that ties us up, even though I'm counting the warm-up that Erin got right as a point. But we're still 2-2. Interesting. Well, okay. I mean, Adal. Hey, my man. Well, we're getting some rewrites. It seems like it is 2-1.

Erin

No, wait a minute!

JPC

Oh, no. So, Erin, you delivered those rewrites. I don't know why you did that. I'm a redubby. It is 2-1.

Erin

Wait, I'm a ritty-it? I'm a ritty-it.

00:31:49

JPC

So it is two to one, Adal, you are in the lead here, and that gives us a great place to step away and take a quick break. We will see you after these brief messages from our sponsors!

???

And we're back!

JPC

Welcome back to Hey Riddle Riddle, the show you hate. And for another thing that you hate, how about another riddle? Here we go. What's that in the distance? Not me. For I'm right here with you. I couldn't be closer. Halt! Who goes there? Not me. I'm with you already. Now watch where you go, sir. Oh, is this God? Is he gonna be like, foots in the sand? Hold on. Where is my keychain? Hidden. A mystery for certain. Though it's right where you left it. Why is this toilet seat wet? Haha! Now you're stuck taking a moist, angered shit.

00:32:51

Adal

Okay, I feel like the last two lines were JPC originals.

JPC

Nope, these are all bad.

Adal

A moist, angry shit.

JPC

Well that has to- the anagram has to be angry shit. What's that in the distance? Not me, for I'm here with you. I couldn't be closer. Halt who goes there? Not me. I'm with you already. Now watch where you go, sir. Where is my keychain? Hidden. A mystery for certain. Though it's right where you left it. Why is this toilet seat wet? Haha! Now you're stuck taking a moist, angered shit. Is the answer insanity? The answer is insanity. That's so good. No, it's not. It's absolutely not. So, Erin, you're still in the game. Is it a mirage? Explain some reasoning here behind these answers. Is it a mirage?

Erin

I always get dead stops.

Adal

That's not me in the distance. That's me in the corner. Oh, it's REM.

JPC

Yes, it's REM. Michael Stipe. What's that in the distance? Not me, for I'm right here with you. I couldn't be closer. Hulk, who goes there? Not me. I'm with you already. Now watch where you go, sir. Shadow. It's not shadow?

00:34:00

Erin

I don't know. Could you give us a hint, maybe the title of the riddle?

JPC

See if you can solve this.

Erin

Horizon.

JPC

Not horizon. It's S-E-E, not S-E-A.

Erin

Okay.

JPC

It is Verizon.

Erin

Can you hear me now? Your eyes.

JPC

I'm Nipple's Fucker. Can you hear me now?

Erin

Eyes?

JPC

It's not eyes, but you're on the right track.

Erin

Sight.

Adal

No. Eyelids. Blasses. No. Bifocals.

JPC

Contacts. Let me give you the word, the bolded words. This will help. Angered shit.

Erin

Oh, you were right, Adal.

JPC

With what?

Erin

You said that those were probably the words that were pulled. Yes. Adal doesn't care about riddles anymore. I just saw him hit the wall after 40-something episodes.

JPC

My soul just left my body.

Erin

I saw it happen. He was the only one who loved riddles.

JPC

This too hard.

Erin

Alright, wait. I'm gonna write that down.

JPC

Angered shit. And Erin, like I said, you said eyes and you were getting closer.

Adal

Okay. I want to leave shit as is because I feel like that's gonna be part of it. You think this one-word answer... Endangered shit?

00:35:07

JPC

Yes, it's an endangered shit.

Adal

That's a great question. If an endangered animal shits, can you clean it up? Wow, we'll never know.

JPC

Yeah, well... I love that you think that's a great question. Adal, you did say that you're writing a children's book called If a Dodo Takes a Doo Doo, correct? Oh, do you want to hear a passage from it? Absolutely. Here's the book. I asked for this. Thank you so much. Okay.

Erin

I'm gonna get this. Hold on. I'm close.

JPC

Well, Erin, do you want me to read a passage from Erin's children's book?

Adal

Here, I'll read the first page. Let's read a page. Okay, great. If there's a toucan and a tutu, and a piggy can go doo-doo, then a dodo can do doo-doo, and of course you'll number two-two.

JPC

Okay, and here's the book, and I'll go to the next page. Why did I write this book? I am so alone, my life is pain, every day I scream into my empty room. Oh, those are my notes. Those are my author notes. Would you like to read a page from when a dodo-doo's a doo-doo?

00:36:13

Erin

Help, help, help. Help, help, help. Oh, Adal, these are your notes.

Adal

No, those are someone else's.

Erin

Alright, the answer to this ends with I-N-G.

Adal

No.

Erin

Seriously?

Adal

Correct. Does it start with this? Because shit is a perfect answer for this. It is one word. This. No.

Erin

Testering. Answering. Shatter.

Adal

Pain in my shit. Bifocals. No. Near-sided. Yes! It's correct. It's nearsighted.

JPC

It's nearsighted, yes. So yeah, when you are nearsighted, Erin, you are so fucking far behind. Three to one over here.

Erin

I got the warm-up Riddle!

Adal

Erin has her hands on her head like she can't breathe.

Erin

There's a cupcake right in front of me that I cannot eat.

Adal

Yeah, I texted Erin earlier and I said, can you eat cupcakes? And she didn't get back to me and then she just put, no, ha ha ha. Are you at Mariano's?

Erin

Well, I can have gluten free cupcakes.

Adal

Can I also tell this little antique dote? Yes. I'll allow it. We went to have a, we had a Hey Riddle dinner the other day.

00:37:15

JPC

Were you trying to come up with a way to call that like a hey dinner dinner?

Adal

Hey dinner. We had a hey dinner dinner.

Erin

A dinner riddle. Dinner riddle riddle.

Adal

That's a dinner stop. We had a dinner and we had tapas because Erin demanded it.

Erin

I did because I'm a queen.

Adal

Yeah, at some point, Erin ate like 10 scallops. I go, did you eat 10 scallops? She goes, yeah. Oh, it was three scallops. Let's call it, let's meet in the middle. It was 13. But at some point, I was like, let's get desserts. And Erin goes, I don't do sweets. And I was like, OK. And so I ordered a caramelized banana. And I said, I'm going to get two spoons just for JPC and I. And as we started eating it, Erin was like, I'll try this.

Erin

No!

Adal

I wasn't even fucking there so don't put this on me.

Erin

I was like okay I don't want to hurt their feelings I'll try it and I did like it.

Adal

Turns out Erin ate 13 of those bananas.

Erin

I didn't have any I had three scallops and I ate them kind of quickly. I guess I ate them fast and Adal was like, whoa Zoom! Slow down little lady!

00:38:19

Adal

And I was like... Alright, Erin, if you didn't eat those scallops fast... Well, that's my favorite pick up line. Slow down little lady.

JPC

If you didn't eat those scallops fast, how come at the end of the meal the waiter came over to us with a certificate for the fastest scallop eating lady?

Adal

He said your kids eat for free, but yo, that's not a kid, that's JP Z.

Erin

You seem like such a grove. Eating fish quickly is really sad. So please just give me a break.

Adal

We can call you Mama Mollusk.

Erin

Please don't.

Adal

There's nothing sad other than eating a fish quickly.

Erin

Well, okay, well, here's my revenge. You two, between the two of you, ordered a hundred different types of potatoes and ate all of them.

JPC

Yeah, that's true. To be fair, JPC ordered just potatoes and mayonnaise. I took some home and guess what I did with that potato and mayonnaise when I got home? You ate it. Went straight up my ass, baby. Yeah, I'm wet and nasty. I'm a sloppy little bitch.

Erin

JPC is some people's favorites. Just pointing that out.

JPC

Oh, those potatoes were good. Okay, Adal's fingers can Ah, boy, oh boy. What? Next Riddle. Adal's fingers can find me in the cold Arctic Ocean. JPC knows me best when someone else shows emotion. For Erin, I make it harder to feel up men's bums. Most improvisers seek me in whiskies and rums. Um, dad's attention.

00:39:35

Erin

Validation.

JPC

Dad's attention? Dad's attention.

Erin

You see... Could you read it again?

JPC

I can read it again. Adal's fingers can find me in the cold Arctic Ocean. JPC knows me best when someone else shows emotion. Penguin. For Erin, I make it harder to feel up men's bums. Most improvisers seek me in whiskies and rubs. Fish oil.

Adal

Fun jokes. No. Laughter. What's the smelt?

Erin

I'm sorry?

Adal

Smelt?

JPC

Smelt.

Erin

What's the title of this?

JPC

The title of this is, I've got a good feeling about this one.

Adal

Custom nights gonna be a good night.

Erin

These are, first of all, just a pause. These are really, really great.

JPC

No! We can't pause.

Erin

No, these are great.

JPC

The show must go on, Erin.

Erin

But these are great.

JPC

Thank you. These are really good riddles. I befriended Pat just so I could get these riddles.

Adal

I do want to say today's episode is unofficially sponsored by Paws Chicago, where JPC got spaghetti. I would like to see a quick public service commercial. Is that a thing? Yeah, public service commercials. With Erin and JPC doing an ad for Paws Chicago. That is where he gets spaghetti. I just want to see a quick commercial for that.

00:40:51

Erin

Anyone can be a dog parent. And here's an example. This guy is a fucking idiot. JPC, tell the people why you suck so bad.

JPC

I think spoons are forks, and I think forks are knives.

Erin

And other things too, right, JPC?

JPC

Yes. I believe wholeheartedly that Joe Biden is the right choice for presidential nominee in 2020. I think that Oprah is a little too much. And I... Hey, I'm gonna stop you real quick, sorry.

Adal

About a minute ago, Erin said fucking, so we have to retake this. Start from top, here we go. One, two, three. Okay, great.

Erin

This shitbird asshole little bitch is allowed to have a dog named Spaghetti. A cute dog, even. And he can keep it alive. Her alive. JVC, tell people why you deserve to have a dog.

JPC

When I go to Pornhub, I click every single ad that I see. Even for the penis pills that I don't need.

Adal

Sorry, I've got to stop you there. Pons has a partnership with RedTube. We allow them to use dogs in some of their porn. Is that a real porn website? Sorry? Nothing. I just mentioned it, didn't I?

00:41:57

Erin

I'm sorry. Sometimes you make things up because you're an improviser.

JPC

Here, I got it on my phone. Check it. See? It's Family Guy stuff. We also... It's all Lois.

Adal

It's all Lois and Peter getting 69. It's mostly Brian on my feed. We also have Bloemport. You ever go to Bloemport?

Erin

Is that made up?

Adal

Bloemport? Yes.

JPC

No, no, no. Have you ever seen the Ray Romano movie, Welcome to Mooseport? No. It's a port website based on that movie.

Erin

Alright, I'm ready to take it again.

Adal

What are some of the port insights you know?

Erin

Pornhub?

Adal

Okay, what else? That's what I said.

Erin

Google?

JPC

I think we're ready to take it whenever.

Erin

Yeah, we're ready.

Adal

Okay, in three, two, one, zero, minus one, minus two, minus three.

Erin

This little bitch has a dog named Spaghetti. Tell everyone why you're such a bitch.

JPC

I regularly, routinely deny calls from my mom and my grandma.

Adal

This is also a visual, so can you act a bitch?

JPC

Yeah, sure.

00:43:01

Erin

Visit Paws today because anyone can have a dog and take care of it and love it like JPC loves spaghetti, a dog he named after food.

JPC

I for real got in trouble the other week for making a joke about how I fuck my dog, which is a thing that I make routinely. So someone texted something to Mariah out of context and she was like, what does this mean? And I was like, well, I'm so glad I have the opportunity to explain this because what I was doing was making a joke about how I fuck my dog. And now I get to explain to you the context of this joke that someone texted you.

Adal

And remind me, has Mariah received her sainthood yet? Or that's coming? You have to die to get sainthood. What are you doing? Back off, back off! Abort, abort! Oh, now you're making abortion jokes.

JPC

Would you like to answer this riddle?

Adal

No.

JPC

Okay.

Adal

So the feeling that I get, was that what it was? What's the title?

JPC

Adal's fingers can... Oh, the title is I've got a good feeling about this one.

00:44:01

Adal

I've got a good feeling about this. So it has to do with the sense of touch because my fingers can fight it in the ocean. Yes.

JPC

So what's like... JBC's knows me best when someone else shows emotion. For Erin, I make it harder to feel up men's bombs. Here's... Most improvisers seek me in whiskey's and rum's.

Erin

Escape.

JPC

The Pina Colada song?

Erin

I don't know. If you like making love at midnight. What's bold? What's bold? I'm ready for what's bold.

JPC

Men's bums. Men's bums. Eight letters, men's bums. Oh, summer? What's that?

Adal

You know, you got winter, spring, summer, fall. Summer? Yeah, Adal's fingers find summer when he's in the ocean.

JPC

Numbers. Numbers is not the correct answer, but it's Erin. It's very close to the correct answer. Mumbers.

Erin

Numbness.

JPC

Numbness. Nice. Erin Keif is back on the board. It's two to three, Erin.

Erin

How do you feel? I feel nothing.

00:45:01

JPC

Yeah, just like JPC when someone else shows emotion. Here's another Riddle.

Erin

Are you okay?

JPC

Even if I wasn't, how would you ever fucking know?

Erin

Do you? I think you're secretly a little softy. I think you're secretly a little Paddington bear, huh? Who's my little Paddington bear?

JPC

Little ketchup the bear? Yeah. Alright, here's the next riddle. Here we're related, even if you're a stranger. Olive Garden. Yep, it's Olive Garden. Fuck.

Erin

Seriously?

JPC

It is indeed Olive Garden.

Erin

No way!

JPC

Can you read the whole thing? Yes, Adal got it immediately, but this one is great. Damn it, Adal! It's actually, there's three of them in this. Vino Regald. There's three in this. Vino Regald, Grown Veiled, and Olive Garden. I love Danger, Vino Regald, and Grown Veiled are all anagrams for Olive Garden.

00:46:11

Adal

I want to see a scene. Erin, you are leading, it's the all three of us, and you are leading a pitch session for what Olive Garden's slogan should be or tagline, and this is like in the late 80s, so we're gonna see where we land.

Erin

Okay everyone, take a seat. I know I'm the boss and maybe it's not good that I do my idea first. But I'm just going to start us off.

JPC

I just have to say it's 1980 and I love that the boss is a woman.

Adal

Yeah, this is, and your suit with the big shoulders, I think it's great.

Erin

Makes it dumb and useless when you point it out as much as you do. All right, here we go.

Adal

We're trying to be proactive. Easy, breezy, beautiful. And beautiful refers to yourself or the food?

Erin

The food. Easy. Breezy. Beautiful. Okay.

Adal

Okay. I got one. Yeah. Okay. It's not delivery because you're in a fucking restaurant.

Erin

I don't hate it. I don't love the swear, but I don't hate it.

00:47:12

JPC

Okay. Okay. I have one. It's kind of simple.

Erin

It's just it's Pepsi.

Adal

Okay.

JPC

Okay. Yeah. Do we serve Pepsi products? I don't think so. I don't believe so.

Erin

Alright, I got one.

JPC

Ready?

Erin

Olive Garden. Just do it.

Adal

I like that. I like that. How about this? Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's breadsticks.

Erin

Oh well, I'd like to pause and unpack that one a little bit.

JPC

Why'd you two look at each other when I said that one? We both have had daughters that have had breadsticks.

Erin

The hands of breadsticks. The hands of breadsticks.

JPC

You both have daughters. We both have had daughters.

Erin

Have had daughters.

JPC

I didn't say that.

Erin

We just let them run out into the woods. What are you supposed to do when you've got breadsticks?

Adal

Are you kidding me? Do you know animals can smell breadsticks from 10 miles away? We're counting on it. We're actually getting on it. You're counting on your daughters that you've had being eaten by wolves. No. Because of their breadsticks raised.

00:48:15

Erin

Do you have another one?

JPC

Raised by wolves. I have one. I have one. Eaten good in the neighborhood. In the neighborhood, it's Italy. Oh, I like that.

Erin

Olive Garden.

Adal

I'm loving it. How about this? Olive Garden, like a rock. Oh! Because it's hard to get reservations. Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other?

Erin

Why do you two look at each other?

Adal

Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other?

Erin

Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other?

Adal

Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other?

Erin

Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each other? Why do you two look at each

JPC

I was gonna say we do everlasting breadsticks. Just breadsticks that just one long breadstick that you just keep eating.

Adal

It goes back into the kitchen.

Erin

Ending soup, ending breadsticks. Salad that stops.

Adal

Hey, can I just say I know co-workers. Sure. And I know it's the late 80s, but... When I'm with you all, you feel so... Feels like we're from the same ancestry. Yeah, like we're all together. When I'm in this room, it's like you're in my ancestry. You're part of my tree.

00:49:25

Erin

Oh my gosh. I think we're all in agreement. Easy breezy people.

Adal

One, two, three.

JPC

Do you ever think that we should fucking use that time machine to come back in time and do ad executive stuff when we were all meant to go kill Hitler?

Adal

Smash cut to two daughters in the woods with breadstick arms.

Erin

You want someone to draw it?

Adal

I want either someone to draw two girls with red stick arms being raised by wolves, or I want that to be a Halloween costume this year. Yeah, that'll be a big Halloween costume this year.

Erin

Oh my gosh, just wear a sweatshirt and then have two olive garden red sticks.

JPC

It can be like an Adam Sandler desk piece. And people will ask you what you are for Halloween and you'll have to explain to them what a podcast is. Undercooked pasta, which should have been wetter, a tame kiss was given when passion was better. The curtain pulled open, a neighborly flash, a debit card left after getting some cash. Ordering vegan, but being served ham, every example a clue as to just what I am.

00:50:35

Adal

I call bullshit on this. These are just Bob Dylan lyrics. Wait, what song do you think Bob Dylan sings? Isn't it ironic?

Erin

Don't you think?

JPC

This is undercooked pasta which should have been wetter. A tame kiss was given when passion was better. The curtains pulled open, a neighborly flash, a debit card left after getting some cash. Ordering vegan but being served ham, every example, a clue as to just what I am.

Erin

Things that make you not horny.

JPC

Unreturned. Mm-mm. No.

Erin

Limp.

JPC

No. Limp. Biscuit. Limp biscuit is rocking your scent just like crushing a nut when you're placing your bet. Neighborly flash. Frustrating. Is that like your neighbor flashing you? Yeah. The curtains pulled open and neighborly flash.

Adal

Um... Under arrest. Naked. Nope. What was it? Limp pasta when it should have been wetter?

00:51:38

JPC

Undercooked pasta which should have been wetter.

Adal

Al dente. A tame... No.

JPC

I mean that's... Yeah. Weird Al Dente. It's Weird Al Dente. Fuck. How'd you get it? How are you, smart sky in the world? How good you are. No, no, no. It's not that. I'll give you the title of this one. Oops. Didn't mean this in this one. Oops, didn't mean this in this one.

Adal

Didn't mean to send this one. Dick pics. No. Oh, never-ending dick pics.

JPC

Every example a clue as to just what I am. So each one of these examples has a clue to what this is.

Adal

Underdone. No. Okay. Undercooked pasta when it should have been wetter.

JPC

A tame kiss was given when passion was better. The curtains pulled open, a neighborly flash, a debit card left after getting some cash. Ordering vegan but being served ham. Every example of clue as to just what I am. Being ironic. It's not ironic. Being... Alright, you guys want the, uh, the anagram? Yeah. Tame kiss. Eight letters. Tame kiss. It's one word. It's plural. Mistake. Adal got it. It's mistakes. All of these are mistakes. I'm sorry.

00:52:50

Erin

Well, Adal got that because he was a mistake.

JPC

Thank you, Erin. Oh, don't try and high-five me. I won it so bad, though. So what happens there is Adal was up four to two, but then Erin made Adal slice off a big slice of his own ass and made him eat it on a plate, and so then Erin stole the points, and now it's three to three.

Adal

But I want it to be five to one, so that's Billy Joel Armstrong's height. Wait, I want to see a scene where Erin, you are in Boston, and JPC, you are a pageant host, and you're crowning Erin a Miss Steak. Okay. So this is like a real meat-centric town.

JPC

Well, ladies and gentlemen, I didn't think I could ever see it done, but at 5'8", eating 184 pounds of steak. And all those scallops! I'm sorry. Yes, she was almost disqualified for eating all the scallops.

Adal

She ate that fish too fast.

JPC

She ate that fish too fast. Your mistake, Erin Smoot.

00:53:52

Erin

Oh God, hooray!

Adal

Erin Beif was right there. Why didn't you take it? She lost. Fair and square, buddy.

Erin

Alright.

Adal

Get over it.

Erin

You know what's true about me today? I microwaved chicken. I took it out. The smell is so bad that I threw up in the trash. That's a sad stop. And that's why I'm honored to win Miss Steak. It has iron in it. I like it medium rare. Is my best crown made of me?

JPC

Yeah, it's not time for the speech. I gotta make my song. Look at her! Look at her sweat! She's eating so much meat. Why's her face so wet?

Erin

I feel like I'm pretty rare.

JPC

She's the mistake.

Erin

Do you have any more?

JPC

She's a mistreat. The family's in town, but the options are few. We've been to the Bean and the Lincoln Park Zoo. We went to the Shed, got belugued and sealed. We took selfies with Sue when we stopped by the field. We ate a deep-ditch pizza and tons of Al's- At what pizza? We ate a deep-ditch pizza- You mumblefuck. and tons of Al's beef. We saw that one show with Rifai, Coan, and Keif. We've done House of Blues and done the Green Mill, but their flight is tomorrow with a full day to kill. Blue Man Group. Parents, tourists. Pain very deep fills my soul as I know will end up the one place I don't want to go. Sears Tower. Parents, tourists. No. Those tours will end up the one place I don't want to go.

00:55:26

Erin

Wrigley Field.

JPC

We already said the field.

Adal

The worst places in Chicago are the Bean, Navy Pier. Here's what I'll say. There's stuff like if you go to like the Chicago Shakespeare Theatre or there's a few things that reside in Navy Pier that are great but the actual pier itself I mean it's not there's like it's like a build-a-bear and like a bubblegum shrimp

Erin

Okay, let's just shit on Erin's favorite things. Let's just shit on Erin's favorite things. I'd like to see a scene.

Adal

Wait, the other day when I saw you holding a Build a Bear and wearing a Above Gum Shrimp, sure, you don't mean me. Yeah, I was horny as hell. Hey ladies, ladies line up. Ladies or gents?

Erin

I want to see a scene and Adal, you're a kid and you just built your first Build a Bear and JPC, you're the bear that Adal just built.

Adal

Oh, I finally got you home and let you out of your box. Come out of your box, friend! I can't see. You're named Sarsaparilla. I didn't give you eyes because I don't want you to know shame. You gave me buttons. A bear cannot see out of buttons. I don't want you to see. I don't want you to have shame. I just said that. Don't make me fucking repeat myself.

00:56:38

JPC

I don't know. Sarsaparilla, you're my best friend. I don't know what shame is. Do you not want me to feel ashamed of knowing that I'm an inferior creation? No questions or your hand goes on the stove. Ah, well the stove's not on. I thought it was going to be hot. I was just expecting hot.

Adal

Why would I turn on the stove if I'm a kid? My name's not Sesperilla. Hey, it's the microwave. Yeah, your name is. No, my name is Dijon. I come from the planet Beforff. Your name is Dijon coming from the planet Beforff. What are you, some sort of rewrite from sitcom writers? Hey kid, what are you doing? Don't say that.

Erin

Honey, who are you talking to?

Adal

Oh, my mom played by Carole Kane. Seen!

JPC

Erin Snorted, would you hear that? Hi. One last one to take us out. This is for all of the marbles. Whoever gets this one wins all the points.

Erin

I love this.

Adal

Can I just say, when JPC said this is for all the marbles, he put his testicles on the table?

00:57:38

JPC

First of all, my testicles have been on the table this whole time.

Erin

We just don't notice.

JPC

That's how I got them all. I want you to play a horny pirate who's ashamed of his search history. Arr! Me porn vices! That's the whole puzzle.

Erin

Say it again.

JPC

I want you to play a horny pirate who's ashamed of his search history. Arr! Me porn vices! It's me porn vices.

Erin

I don't know. What's bold?

JPC

Me porn vices! And you're looking for two words, and it's not something with Erin.

Adal

Really? Erin's in there.

JPC

Erin can be in there, but... Erin's smoke is in there.

Adal

Nice?

Erin

No. Oh, the word nice isn't one of the words?

Adal

Oh, it's vice porn me.

Erin

Vice.

JPC

Oh, is it rice? It is not. Poonice? The title to this one is, if you need a segue, I want you to play a horny pirate who's ashamed of his search history. Arrr, me poor and vices. Keep in mind, this is coming from someone who's a fan of the show. Is this one of your sayings? No, it's not a saying. The name of the riddle is if you need a segue. I want you to play a horny pirate who's ashamed of his search history. Are me porn vices?

00:59:10

???

Scene?

JPC

Can we stop the show? Yep, scene is part of it, Erin. You got one of the words correct.

Adal

TPC, can we stop the show? Um, no. I don't feel good. I need to go home. You shouldn't feel good. I have a note for my mother.

JPC

I watched you eat 13 scallops.

Adal

I have a note for my mother. Let me see this.

JPC

You know that her profession is... Yeah, this says, I refuse to accept responsibility for Adal's behavior. Why would she write this? You're a 36-year-old man. We had a falling out.

Erin

Movie scene.

Adal

No.

Erin

Something scene.

Adal

Yes, something scene. We've, yes, that is correct. Wait, what would be important vices? What would be important vices? Okay.

JPC

You guys are gonna shit yourselves. Prom scene. My scene. No, not prom scene, not my scene. You have six letters left. For the first word. I want you to play a horny pirate who's ashamed of his search history. And then Adal would go, R, me porn vices. Oh, rom-fit. It's a rom-fit. I cannot believe that you two can't get this.

01:00:19

Erin

I'm tired.

Adal

I want to see a scene. Is that what it is? Let's see a scene. It's two words. Blank scene.

JPC

Blank scene. I want you to play a horny pirate. Blank scene. Yeah, both of the people in the booth know it.

Erin

Rif.

JPC

This is so funny. They're like yelling it. They're yelling it.

Erin

No hits, no hits.

JPC

Oh boy. It's infuriating. Wait, hold on. I hope the people are listening to this podcast and their brains are fucking melting.

Erin

I have the letters M-E-P-O-R-V-I.

Adal

You have an E?

Erin

There's two E's. Oh, there's two E's in scene.

Adal

Yeah. Never mind. You shouldn't have an E. I should get it on that alone.

JPC

No, but you didn't.

Erin

Vipe, vipe, vipe.

JPC

You have the letters. The letters that you have are I-M-P-R-O-V. Those are the letters that you have. Do you guys have different letters? I have P-O-R-V-I-M. I have I-M-P-R-O-V.

01:01:23

Erin

I have I-M-P-R-O-V. I spelled it out for you twice.

JPC

I spelled out the word improv twice. That is so funny. You guys couldn't get a bruv scene. Okay, well thank you so much.

Adal

Must be pretty easy when you have the answer in front of you. You mumble fuck.

Erin

He's a jerk. He's a jerk.

Adal

Our friend is a jerk. Our friend is a jerk.

Erin

I hate our friend. Our friend is a jerk. Our friend is a jerk and we're not happy. Happy for him! One day I hope Pat and Sandy are two sources for riddles and nothing else.

01:02:30

Adal

Adal, do you have anything that you would like to plug? The Titanium Physics podcast, which I just guessed it on, which is me learning from some physicists and scientists from MIT learning about black holes. It was a fantastic time and we had Katie Bauman on was teaching me. She's the young woman who took a picture of the first black hole. So she got to tell me about Black Holes. And I also guess it on a podcast called The McElroy Brothers Will Be in Trolls World Tour. I did a scene that was a reenactment and I got to play in a scene alongside Lin-Manuel Miranda, which is now something I'm very proud to say I did. That's cool. We weren't in the same room, but he played a wolf.

JPC

Oh, that's less cool. Erin, a lot less cool. Erin, do you have anything that you would like to plug?

Erin

My team that I have with my best friends, Wet Bus, performs every Thursday at 10 p.m. at I.O. and if you want free tickets to that, please let me know. I'd love to give you free tickets and say hi to you after.

01:03:37

JPC

Great if you would like to find me you could go to Twitter I'm at JP so fly if you'd like to find me on Instagram I'm at shark barkman if you would like to find something on Netflix there's a search feature you can go to the search feature on Netflix you can type in a person who's in the thing that you're interested in seeing or the name of the thing that you're interested in seeing

Erin

What if you type in porn?

JPC

Is Netflix a porn website? It's going to pull up a whole bunch of options. Choose the thing that you want to watch. They have seasons of television shows. They have movies, original content. Have a ball. Just enjoy watching Netflix.

Adal

If you type in porn, it comes up with Hot Girls Wanted, Zach and Mary Make a Porno, The Emperor of Porn, and Tom Segura Stand Up.

Erin

That's definitely what I'm going to jerk off to later.

JPC

And Erin, if I were to go to the Netflix search and type in J-U-P, what would the first thing I see be?

Adal

Jupiter Ascending maybe? Cloud Atlas. Bye forever! Hey Riddle Riddle.
