This is a HeadGum podcast.

JPC

Hey Riddle, Riddle is adding more live shows. That's right. We're going to be in Chicago on May 23rd at Shubas. We have two shows, 7 PM and 10 PM. If you want to get tickets, go to headgum.com slash live. While you're there, why not buy tickets to our LA show? We sell some of those for sale and then just fly out to LA and see us there as well. You can get those tickets headgum.com slash live. The doctor was the mother. He stood on a block of ice. Oh, nothing. We're going to finish. It was the cabin of an airplane.

???

He stabbed him with the knife, and the horse was being riding.

Erin

Adal just promised he'd take me to Hawaii if I make it to 30. This is Hey Riddle Riddle. I'm Erin.

00:01:03

Adal

I'm Adal Rifai. And I'm JPC. And I'm broke.

Erin

JPC, where would you take me if I make it to 30?

Adal

That wasn't what I said. To be fair, I didn't say if you make it to 30. There are some caveats that I laid down and I said, if you meet those caveats, I'll take you to Hawaii. But I did not say if you make it to 30, I trust you are healthy and happy and we'll survive.

JPC

Erin, if you make it to 30, and I'll go on the record saying this, I will take you to Red Lobster Inn. Honolulu Hawaii.

Erin

Live show in Hawaii.

JPC

November of 2021. Adal will get you there. I'll be on Skype. You can get there. I'll have a table for two.

Erin

We'll all go.

JPC

Fuck you. I want to go. It's for two. It's a table for two. I'm not going to be there. Yeah, it would be fun to do a live show in Hawaii. I'm sure we could see if we have any listeners in Hawaii. I don't think that we can't possibly.

Erin

Well, maybe we can ask some of our listeners to move there now.

JPC

Yeah, that's true. Start getting your life together. Start moving to Hawaii now. Let's all start getting our lives together and moving to Hawaii. I did a, I've been to Hawaii and I saw Cake perform in Hawaii and I really love that band. What a ruined vacation.

00:02:11

Erin

Were you wearing a short skirt and a long jacket?

JPC

That's very pedestrian. Were you flying for distance? I was cum cum Comanche-ing. Give me some deep cuts.

Erin

Going for speed. What's that one?

JPC

It doesn't matter. I really liked that band and I saw them in Hawaii and they were in a pretty small room and I was like, Oh, it's weird to see like cake and like a very small, cause I've seen them before in bigger venues. And then I was like, Oh no, it's just because this is Hawaii and like they're here because they get to come to Hawaii and do a show here.

Adal

Here's why I don't like cake. It sounds like, it sounds like beat poetry talked over guitar. It's here. Anyone can write a cake song here. Let me give an example. Okay. I'm going to give you a baseline. Hashtag anyone can write a cake song, please send us your own cake songs on Twitter. Got home last night, went into my closet, found my boots, snow boots with a little guy inside the boots. Took him out for breakfast.

JPC

That's exactly why I do love cake.

Erin

I don't like cake because it just feels like too big of a proportion. Like I'd rather have a cupcake or a brownie.

00:03:16

Adal

Good point. Good point. I don't like cake.

Erin

I want a cupcake or brownie. That's my cake side.

Adal

Have your cake and eat it too.

Erin

A savory dessert.

JPC

I think one of the reasons that I liked cake and continue to was I can't sing and, or I'm not.

Adal

Oh, you can't.

JPC

What the fuck is this? I'm not a strong singer and neither is the guy from Cake. He basically just does beat poetry to music and so it was very easy to sing along to Cake because not much singing required.

Erin

TPC can you do your cake song?

JPC

Sure. Adal, can you give them a little... I've got a car that drives electronically and the car functions with four tires. I touch the side and the sun beams glistening off the dashboard of my brand new car. If your car is traveling down the road, Don't worry. Thank you. That turned into French Snyder.

00:04:25

Adal

If your car is driving down the road, don't worry. That was amazing. You guys, this is a really fun game. This is our new sweetest show. There's bands I like that aren't... I love Mike Doty. From Soul Coughing? Oh yeah. But for whatever reason, Cake just doesn't do it for me.

JPC

And I like Soul Coughing as well. But boy, boy, I mean, yeah, I don't know. Maybe it's an adolescent thing, right? Like I was of a certain age when I got into Cake. I was like in junior high and high school. Short skirt and long jacket was obviously on a lot of mixtapes for me. And on your mind. Love You Madly is like one of my favorite songs of all time.

Adal

I love you madly, truly, deeply cherry chicka-co. Yes, Soundgarden, thank you. Mike Doty is a big Magic Tavern fan. Ernie and I went and saw him in Chicago and he put Chunt into one of his lyrics. It was very cool. I guess he knew we were there so he sang about Chunt. I was like... I don't want to run around in Chunt.

Erin

I was like college Adal is flipping out. Can I run something by you guys?

00:05:28

Adal

Yes.

Erin

Since I'm old man puzzles today I can sort of do whatever I want.

Adal

That's not how it goes.

Erin

I had a thought today about it's like a modern etiquette question.

JPC

Oh.

Erin

Because at first I thought oh I think this is my number one pet peeve.

JPC

Should I kiss my wife's mother and how much tongue should I use?

Erin

That's what I was going to say.

JPC

Wait, hold on.

???

Repeat that.

JPC

Should I kiss my wife's mother and use my tongue or should I go to the bathroom and wipe my buns?

Erin

That was my question.

JPC

I love this game.

Adal

That should just be there for them.

Erin

It happened to me two times today and I said, okay, this is my new number one pet peeve. And then I went, you know what? This might actually be in a gray area.

JPC

Wait, wait, wait, wait. This is an etiquette question that happened to you two times today.

Erin

Okay.

JPC

All right. Adal, can Adal and I take some guesses? Sure. And you said it's modern etiquette. Does this relate to text messaging?

Erin

It's not quite text messaging. Well, sort of.

00:06:30

Adal

It's adjacent. Is this someone bowing after Venmo-ing you?

Erin

It often happens when we're not in the same room together. How would I know?

JPC

Is this someone calling you, leaving a voicemail, and the voicemail just says, call me?

Erin

No, it is a calling etiquette.

Adal

It is a calling etiquette. This is when they answer the phone and they go, go for me.

Erin

No, that's amazing.

Adal

That person's a boss.

Erin

This is what it is. It's when someone calls you, you answer the phone, you go, hello? And they just launch into what they were, the reason why they called you without saying, Hey, can you talk right now?

???

Hey Riddle.

Adal

We saw you yesterday.

Erin

Yeah, you did.

Adal

I will say somehow Erin texted me and said, I just dropped my phone and it shattered into a million pieces. I'm so sad. Oh, she's holding up her phone and it shattered into a million pieces.

00:07:36

Erin

I'm so sorry for doubting you. Oh, well, may I say? The tips of my fingers are bloody. What happened? How did you drop your phone? Because I'm texting.

Adal

You were texting and dropped your phone to your fingers at Buddy? She's texting on a shattered phone and that's making her fingers bleed. Hold on. She's texting on a shattered phone. That's the new James Bond song. No Mr. Con, I expect you to text.

Erin

Hey, can you talk right now? Or like, hey, are you free? And then go, okay, these are the things I need to talk to you about rather than like, Hey, so I went to the grocery store and X, Y, and Z. And I realized it's because people just so assume that if you're busy at all, you're not going to answer the phone.

Adal

Right? That's very fair. Sorry, you're both in the wrong.

00:08:38

Erin

Right, like at first I was just like fuming about it and I was like why did we just stop doing that and I went oh I feel like it is sort of a social thing that we are like more understanding about people not entering the phone because we just assume that means they're busy. Yeah, why would you answer it?

Adal

To me it is weird to see the phone is ringing, see it's like your one of your parents or loved one or something. And then answer the phone and then be like, I can't talk right now. I understand the aspect of like, if anyone in my family calls me, something's wrong. Because they know I've made it very clear to text me unless there's an issue because I hate talking on the phone. Like even if Gemma and I order delivery or something, I'll be like, can you call? And she's like, I'm so busy. And I'm like, I will not call.

JPC

Hey Riddle.

00:09:43

Adal

Like if you answered and say hello, I'll say like, Hey, Erin and Saddle, uh, how's it going? Or I'll, I'll make the smallest bit of small talk to gauge you and give you an opportunity. And then I would go into my thing. So I might say like, Oh, Hey, I wanted to talk to you about, uh, Hey Riddle, do you have, you know, whatever that might be. I might say, do you have a moment?

Erin

Yeah, I guess I do. I feel like a lot of people do and I, maybe cause it's like a lot, it's usually people who are pretty comfortable with me, but it like, I do think, I mean, you hit the nail on the head, it's like my anxiety brain of assuming that something's wrong. When I realized it's just like a business-y thing, then I go like, oh shoot, I am like with a kid, like kids right now, or I'm like in a place where I can't like an Uber pool or something.

Adal

Can I show you a cool trick? Yeah. So you call me and I'll have answered accidentally or because I think there's an emergency and then I'll show you what to do.

Erin

Okay, awesome. Can you be the phone ringing, JPC?

JPC

Thank you so much. Cool, it's a Kate song. But no, Casey go ahead and put a phone in fact in here. I'm gonna take fucking ten minutes.

00:10:45

Erin

Hello? Hey, so I got the paperwork you sent over and I just wanted to... Is what I'd say if I was on the phone.

Adal

This is a voicemail. Please text me after the beep.

Erin

I can hear the background sounds at the mall. I know you're at the mall.

Adal

Of course I'm recording this voicemail message at the mall. That rules.

Erin

No, it's also like I do love talking on the phone and I prefer if something needs to be worked out to just call someone rather than doing it over text.

Adal

You are, and I mean this in the best possible way, you are kind of like a girl from an 80s or early 90s toy commercial.

Erin

Toy commercial.

Adal

The way you look, the way you dress, the way you act is like so specific.

Erin

You mean a child?

Adal

Hey Sally. What did I say? Hey Sally, want to come over? I got boy talk. He definitely didn't say grown woman from a toy commercial.

Erin

Okay, okay.

Adal

Eric Keif does not come with batteries.

Erin

Oh, am I, I'm a toy?

00:11:47

Adal

No, I didn't say that.

Erin

Okay.

JPC

I despise talking on the phone, too. Oh, I love it. I talked to my mom on the phone today, and I did say, hey, it's now a good time. That's the first thing that I want to know. Are you in a space where you can talk on the phone? Because usually, I will say this, I never answer my phone. If you call me 99% of the time, I will let it go to voicemail and wait for you to text me with what you wanted. Because unless we have predetermined a time that we will be talking on the phone, premeditated, then I'm either doing something else and I don't know how long this phone call was. I was telling you guys, my dad texted me a couple days ago and was like, my dad is an audiophile. He loves fucking pints.

Adal

Oh, I'm so sorry.

JPC

He's just got a tail. He loves buying old speakers. He's always fiddling with knob life from like 50 years ago, like audio equipment from like 50 years ago, restoring it and then just keeping it. He's like a hoarder. And your dad is Phil Spector. No, but yeah, my dad's a bond villain. Fucking idiot. Yeah, not the Beatles audio engineer, the guy who wrote the movie, Spectre. But he texted me and he was like, hey, this guy's got some speakers. He's like 15 minutes from your house in Chicago. Can you go buy them and pick them up and I'll get them from you later? And you know, my dad never fucking asked me for anything. Hey Riddle Riddle. I almost was like, fuck you Dan. There's no way in hell I'm doing that.

00:13:34

Adal

And just in case we have any new listeners, this is EddyCake. We talk about EddyCake. We talk about etiquette and cake.

Erin

Well now I'm going to have to come up with a name for an episode. Marting EddyCake.

Adal

Marting EddyCake. Erin, you're old.

Erin

Old man puzzles. I want everyone to know who's listening, who I talk on the phone with frequently. I do love talking on the phone.

Adal

So give out your number and then for listeners, make sure you text Erin.

Erin

My number is one.

JPC

That's what I used to do. I used to do that when I was in high school, when people were drunk at parties, they'd ask me like, oh, what's your number? And I just write, I'm number one on a piece of paper.

Erin

Incredible.

JPC

Yeah, I was a legend.

Erin

But yeah, like, Sean, when I'm free, will call me in the middle of the day and sometimes we'll talk on the phone for like an hour and a half, just in the middle of the day.

JPC

That sucks, I'm truly sorry for both of you.

Erin

Whatever.

JPC

I have nothing else to say, but that's one of the worst things I've ever heard in my life.

Erin

We live together, too.

Adal

Yeah, when you get home, there's nothing to talk about.

Erin

No, Sean said recently that there's been zero silence since he met me. I just, I get around him and I'm like, yo, these are the things that I saw today. I saw a tree. I saw a boat.

00:14:35

Adal

And you were mad when I called you a girl from an early night.

Erin

No, not at all. You were right. I do not stop talking around him. I don't know what's wrong with me. And you two either. I just don't shut up. I'm old man puzzles.

JPC

We're supposed to be talking because we're literally doing a talking podcast.

Erin

I wish it was dance. I send the JPC and Adal an email every week begging them to make this a dance podcast. All right, I'm Old Man Puzzle. Sorry that it took a long time to get into it, but we're doing Only Connect Riddles today that our listeners submitted because JPC, a few weeks ago, was like, hey, Erin, check out our inbox. You're getting a lot of Only Connect emails.

JPC

There's a bunch of them here.

Erin

There's a bunch of them in there.

JPC

There's a bunch of them.

Erin

So, this one is from, she told me how to say her name.

Adal

And just for anyone who hasn't listened to previous ones, Only Connect is you give us three clues, we have to find out what they all three have in common?

Erin

Usually four.

Adal

Four things, okay.

Erin

Four things, yeah. It's like four mini questions, and then you answer the four questions, and then you figure out what those four things have in common.

00:15:36

Adal

Do we need a piece of paper and a pen?

Erin

Um, yeah, we can also do it like one at a time. Let's do it one at a time. And maybe if we get a little frisky, well, you don't have to work together. You can work apart. Maybe we'll have a little competition. Ooh la la.

JPC

I'm actually frisky as fucking dirt right now. So I'm ready to get frisky. Dirt famously not frisky.

Erin

So this woman's name, and she gave me permission to use her first name, is Brianna, like Piranha. So it's not Brianna, but it's Brianna like Piranha?

JPC

Brianna. This is Brianna.

Erin

I know, but I was like Brianna and Piranha don't exactly rhyme to me.

JPC

Brianna and Piranha? Oh, okay. Yeah.

Erin

Do they rhyme?

JPC

No, not really. I mean, yeah, close enough.

Erin

Okay.

JPC

If John Legend can do it.

Adal

If Rihanna can do it, Brianna can do it. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Erin

Okay, she says, hey guys, it seems like only connect questions where you find the connection between four clues or some of your favorites. I also know you guys like a bit of innuendo. So here's some sexy, only connect. And I put the answers in white because I remember you guys saying that you like that.

00:16:49

JPC

God, this person fucking knows us.

Erin

Piranha. We love you. Brianna like Piranha.

JPC

She means like putting the answers in an invisible ink so we can't see the answers.

Erin

Do you want to work together or alone?

Adal

Let's do some together and some alone.

Erin

Okay, ready? Film starring Robin Williams as a man-sized kid.

Adal

That is going to be kid. That's Jack. Is that Jack? Yeah. Okay. I like Robin Williams with the long Jack.

JPC

So these are the ones we're doing together. So that's Jack. These are all going to be nursery rhyme characters.

Erin

Oh, I have a guess, but I think I might be right. Wait, write it down and so we can see if you were right. Caribbean style of chicken.

JPC

Yup. That's jerk.

Erin

Seasoning applied to meat before cooking.

JPC

Uh, barbecue?

Erin

In order to get the answer, you have to get them all right.

JPC

Seasoning applied to meat before cooking?

Erin

Salt? It's not the seasoning. Well, it's sort of the seasoning, but it's more of like what you do to the meat.

00:17:53

Adal

Tender. Tender eyes. Flavor.

Erin

No. Barbecue.

Adal

It's salt.

Erin

We'll have to come back to start a car.

Adal

Ignite or turn key? To start a car rev? No. Your ignition? How do you start a car? I just press the button. And you famously ride an elevator tour?

???

To start a car. To start a car.

Erin

Is this a cake sock?

JPC

Yeah. To start a car would be to turn turn.

Erin

So we also need seasoning applied to meat before cooking.

JPC

And it's not like a specific seasoning. It's not like salt or... No.

Erin

Eye. There's the... What?

JPC

What did you say?

Erin

That was a hint. Here's another one. Here's another hint. Ooh, I need a back.

Adal

Massage. Rub. Rub. Oh yeah.

Erin

To start a car.

Adal

Rub is to... Crank.

Erin

Crank?

Adal

Oh yeah. Crank a car. Jack, jerk, rub, crank. These are all things you do on a first date.

00:18:58

JPC

So I wrote after we did... Someone built their whole personality based on something about Barry. Saw that in a pretty pivotal age. I wrote down here on my little piece of paper after Jack that the thing that we were guessing was going to be jerking off.

Erin

Yeah, these are all euphemisms for masturbation. Top of mind, JPC.

Adal

Come in you window, I'll be home soon.

JPC

Do you want to write something on the top of my mind? This is a something about Mary. Remember when he gets that stuff on the top of his mind and she puts it in her hair?

Adal

No, yeah. That's the most memorable part of the movie. Of course we remember that.

JPC

Do you remember any other details of that movie? Sure. Chris Elliott.

Adal

The guy getting the Frank above the beans or the beans above the Frank. That's right. What else? The song, the guy in the tree. I don't remember any of these things, by the way. Cameron Diaz being in the mask.

Erin

Do you want to sing a cake song about it?

JPC

Yeah. This is Adal's cake song about something about Mary. Erin, you do the bass.

00:19:59

Erin

Is this a slow jam of cake? You want me to go faster?

Adal

Ben Stiller is home trying to date Cameron Diaz. The AS text built a monument to Matt Dillon. Dillinger, a large The penis was shot to death behind the biograph theater. This sucks.

Erin

We did it. No, it was great. That was good.

Adal

I did not feel set up for success with the pace of your... JBC, can you do it?

Erin

To that pace?

JPC

I don't know much about something about me.

Erin

I'll try again.

Adal

Okay. All right.

Erin

Is this a cake song or a rap?

Adal

Yeah, that's a Matthew McConaughey graduation speech.

Erin

All right, you do the same thing I was just doing and I'll do a cake song.

JPC

This is classic cake. He does a lot of that in his setups to his song. You guys were not giving me a space to be caked.

00:21:01

Erin

I'm singing a cake song. Fuck you, Adal. It can be done.

Adal

Being aggressive towards me is not nailing the song. Let's be clear. We'll ask the audience. Wait, let me try. Fuck you. You didn't win. I won.

JPC

Erin did get a lot closer to being about something about Mary. That's fair.

Erin

But what do we say?

Adal

For people to send in their cake songs, we said, make your own cake song. Here we go. Let's go to the next Connect 4. Yeah, hashtag bake your own cake.

Erin

That's great. Make a little Twitter video and we'll watch all of them. Ready? First name of a flying immortal boy.

Adal

That would be Cupid. Oh, Icarus?

Erin

Cupid can get killed. Oh, Cupid can die.

Adal

And Icarus can get it. We're on the same page.

00:22:03

Erin

Cupid can get it.

Adal

Flying Immortal Boy? We're on the same page and it's both inches mythology. Immortal Flying Boy. That would either be... Harry Potter. Harry Potter. That would be... It's not Icarus because Icarus died. Cupid can be killed and can fucking get it. Who's an Immortal Boy? Immortal Boy. What was the first part?

Erin

Is this first name of a flying, immortal boy?

Adal

Is this from mythology? No. Mythology is typically one name, so this would be the first name. But this is not from mythology. Doesn't sound like it.

Erin

Is this a superhero? It is? No.

Adal

Oh.

Erin

This is a... I wouldn't call him a superhero.

Adal

Flying, immortal boy.

Erin

Baby Jesus?

Adal

Oh, Peter. Peter Pan. Nice. Peter Pan is immortal? Well, for now. If he's immortal, why even fight Captain Hook?

JPC

Yeah, why does it matter?

Adal

Just let Captain Hook feel great and then just heal yourself and move on. What if Peter Pan had Wolverine's powers? Oh my gosh! I think I just wrote the great next movie.

Erin

The great next movie!

Adal

Not the next great movie. The great next movie.

00:23:04

Erin

There's only one movie to come out next and it's going to be Adal's great next movie.

Adal

I just wrote the next American novel. Not the great American novel. The next American novel.

Erin

Does it hurt Peter? Every time. Adal, did you just write down Peter Pan Wolverine? Adal just typed something into his computer. That is amazing. All right, Adal. You're Peter Pan Wolverine. I'm Wendy. JBC, you're the two little brothers. Gotcha. And you've come through the window and you want to take us off to Neverland.

???

I want to go to bed. I want to go to bed.

Erin

Mummy and daddy will be back soon, but for now we have to sleep.

???

Olog chocolate.

Adal

Hey, I'm back.

Erin

Shake!

Adal

Go to shake? Sorry, go to sleep.

Erin

That boy's at our window again. Windy, please get him away. I don't like him.

Adal

Olog chocolate.

Erin

Wait, Tinkerbell's in two pieces on the ground.

Adal

Yes, sliced her in half.

Erin

Peter, what did you do?

Adal

Sliced her in half. I thought she would save her tooth.

???

By accident?

00:24:05

Adal

I don't know.

???

That's a lot of blood for such a small creature.

Adal

Did I tell you kids I'm like 800 years old?

???

You look like a boy though.

Adal

You know my green outfit? You know with a hat and a feather and everything? It's all adamantium. Did I tell you that?

???

Is that facial hair on purpose or can you control? Like you could shave. You look like a boy with a beard.

Adal

I can shave but it'll heal. Come here, take this knife, stab me.

???

Oh, please don't make that.

Adal

Not in the eyes.

Erin

You sort of look like a boy in a high school play, like a high school fiddler on the roof. You sort of look like a boy. You look like a boy, but you got facial hair like a man.

Adal

There he is. Cyclop. Peter. What? Who? I get Jean Grey. Dibs. Oh, that's Captain Hook. Yes, it's me, Captain Hook. Oh, sorry, with one eye. Sorry, I just saw one eye.

Erin

And it's me. Is that the little pirate next to him?

JPC

Yes, this is Smee. He's my little pirate next to me. That's his official position.

Adal

That's not Smee. That's Jubilee.

Erin

I wear stripes.

00:25:06

Adal

What happened to you, Peter Pan? What happened to you? I don't know. I was put into a program X in Canada. Why wouldn't you say that I'm Stryker?

Erin

Peter, you used to not want to ever grow up.

Adal

That's a more one-to-one comparison. Let's make a movie just called Peter. It's like me and it's real dark. It's real gritty. It's like unforgiven with Clint Eastwood.

Erin

I don't think there's an audience for that, Peter.

Adal

Really?

Erin

Let's fly together. Let's think of a wonderful thought. What's your wonderful thought, Peter?

Adal

Uh, dying? I can make that happen for you, Peter.

JPC

Come at me.

Erin

All right. The first one was Peter.

Adal

I got to see some fan art of that Wolverine Peter fan.

Erin

No, and then burn it. And then don't show us and burn it. That'll have an evil energy.

Adal

Sorry. The correct hashtag is Ben Vereen.

JPC

What did we ask for? That was a nightmare one time. We had like a half human, half horse or something that was split down the middle.

Adal

We did a centaur that was split down the middle and that was a nightmare.

Erin

Peter Pan is a fuck boy and you can quote me on that.

00:26:07

JPC

What?

Erin

Peter Pan fucking sucks, dude.

JPC

Oh, that's okay. I'm sorry. I did the wrong definition of fuck boy in my mind real quick. I thought it was a good boy who can fuck.

Erin

Oh, no. He doesn't, he doesn't fuck. He's a fuck boy.

JPC

Yeah. I thought it was Peter Pan fucks. Harry Potter, the boy who fucked and lived.

Adal

That's Harry Potter in his repressed Christian school. The boy who fucked and lived. We've done one Riddle in 25 minutes.

Erin

Sorry, I'm trying. Country singer Nelson.

Adal

Willie. These are all nicknames for penises.

Erin

Wait! President after Kennedy.

Adal

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh TTFN. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N.

JPC

T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N.

Adal

T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N.

JPC

T-T-F-N.

Adal

T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N.

00:27:07

Erin

T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N.

Adal

T-T-F-N.

JPC

T-T-F-N.

Adal

T-T-F-N.

JPC

T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N.

Adal

T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N. T-T-F-N.

JPC

T-T-

Adal

Knockers. Knockers.

Erin

That's my least favorite word for boob. Do you know that about me?

JPC

Excuse me, Madam. Could I see your knockers? Why is knockers your least favorite word for boob?

Erin

It's just fucking terrible. I've never heard a decent guy called boob, knockers. Knock, knock, knockers on Erin's chair.

Adal

What era is knockers from? Knockers is like a seventies maybe? Is it seventies? No wait, bazingas are seventies.

Erin

Well, thank you to her.

Adal

Zingas are sixties, but zingas are seventies, knockers are eighties. This is a Dr. Seuss book. Sweater puppies are nineties. Um, here we go. So yeah, we got that one. How many more, how many more are there? Well, none because Erin just thinks that girl.

00:28:10

Erin

Uh, so, um, we're done with those from her, but we have more from other people, but I think we're going to take a really quick break because it's funny that we only did one email before the break and then we'll be back.

Adal

A little cake break. Boom. We'll be right back with some more riddles.

Erin

And we're back.

JPC

Boom.

Erin

So back to some only connect style puzzles.

JPC

Back to connect.

Erin

I love these. So I hope that a couple of you out there are having fun too. These next ones are from Alan. Um, let's see.

Adal

This is Tim Allen.

Erin

You can use my last name. You can pronounce it. A-S-U-N. No, I can't.

00:29:12

Adal

A-S-U-N-C-I-O-N.

Erin

Ashanti. Well Alan, hello. He says, hey Keif. I love it. That's so cute. Love the show. But I also love Victoria Corrin Mitchell, who's on Only Connect. So I made y'all some Only Connect stuff. I also made a missing vowels round, which I might save for another week. So these, you don't have to... Get them right? They're not questions, so you're just making the connection.

JPC

Gotcha. Yes, but would it also be okay if I didn't get them right? Would that be fine as well?

Erin

Well, you wouldn't get to have a treat after supper.

Adal

Can we keep working together like this? I think we get through more when we work together.

Erin

You love JPC. You guys, Adal loves JPC.

Adal

I don't.

Erin

Are you ready? Let's skip to it.

JPC

Here we go.

Erin

High school. Prom. Funeral home. Truck stop.

JPC

All places I lost my virginity.

Erin

I can only have it once my man.

Adal

And I can only have it another truck stop. High school, funeral home, truck stop, prom. So high school and prom go together real well. Funeral home, truck stop, not so much. These are all things that have a dead stop. These are all funeral home.

00:30:26

Erin

It's not A Riddle Riddle related.

Adal

Truck stop prom. These are all places that donate convertibles for the town parade. Say it again. Say the list again. High school.

Erin

High school prom. Funeral home truck stop.

Adal

These are great, by the way. These are all places of higher education. Funeral home truck stop.

Erin

I send my kid down to the funeral home. That's where he learned some lessons.

Adal

These are all places where you would find a body. I do want to see a scene. I do want to see a scene. Erin and JPC, you are on a first date. Erin, you have decided to take JPC character to the funeral home for the first date because that's your family runs it.

Erin

Hey Claire, I wanted to say thank you for letting me plan this first date. I just have had a crush on you for a really long time and it means a lot that you let me take you out and plan this right this way.

JPC

You planned this?

00:31:26

Erin

Yeah, actually my family, I don't want to brag, but my family kind of owns this place.

JPC

Yeah, I know because of your smell. What? Formaldehyde.

Erin

Right. Yeah. Yeah. I just thought like, I don't know, you'd want to go like, there's, there's just like a lot to do here. And I thought maybe you'd really enjoy it. Like we can lay in the coffins and we can go down. And I propped up a lot of the bodies we have. So we can like do a little play in front of them or have like a tea party with them.

JPC

Can we just fucking your car?

Erin

No, I want to move slow.

Adal

You meant hearse. Can we fucking your hearse? I didn't know what it was called.

Erin

Oh, now you're on the right track.

Adal

My friend in high school, Katie Rux, her family ran the town funeral home. Her family ran the town. Whenever we went to her house, the first few times we went to the house, her parents made it clear. They're like, when you go in the elevator, never hit B, because that's the basement lab with the Bodies or anything? But it's just very funny of getting into an elevator and knowing that if you hit the wrong button.

00:32:32

Erin

Well now I know I'm going to have a nightmare where I hit B in my mind in your car, the elevator.

Adal

She said she used to stink down there and watch her dad work when she was a kid and would be like, or stink down there in the middle of the night or something. And it's like you hear air escaping and all that stuff that you hear about.

Erin

It sounds terrifying. OK, Halloween episode.

Adal

At some point I think you're just numb to it.

Erin

Yeah.

Adal

So these are all bus, hearse, pickup truck. Pick up girls.

Erin

Well, it's not necessarily a hearse. It's not a hearse. It is like a hearse.

Adal

It is what?

Erin

You were doing the perfect thing.

Adal

Oh, then I got it right. But what do those all have in common? Hearse bus, pickup truck, limo. They're all things that carry little shits. So a bus drives students. Funeral home drives dead bodies. Prom limo drives me crazy.

Erin

It's not real. Think literally. Like what do all those vehicles have in common?

Adal

They're all bodies. A truck stop. What is a truck stop? Picture them in your head. So a semi truck, they're all 18 wheelers. They all involve long vehicles.

00:33:39

Erin

They're all long vehicles.

Adal

Oh my god. Not a huge fan of that. I love it. Unlike Robert De Niro in the movie with Wesley Snipes, not a huge fan.

Erin

I don't know if I'm going to pronounce one of these things right. Here's your next list. Bob Cratchit, Captain Abraham Smollett, Scarecrow, stage manager of the Muppet Show.

Adal

You meant to say Julian Smollett. These are all side characters. These are all villains.

Erin

These are all ghosts.

Adal

They all have a crutch. Wait, what was the... These are all poor people. These are all people that can't take care of their families. These are all people who got the biggest goose on Thanksgiving Day.

Erin

Captain Abraham Smollett, Scarecrow, stage manager of the Muppet Show.

Adal

What's stage manager? Stage manager is a guy with glasses, right? His name's like Mickey. His name's like Derek. What's his name?

JPC

Which Scarecrow are we talking about? Batman Scarecrow or Dorothy Scarecrow?

Erin

If I tell you what Scarecrow, I'll give it away. And if I tell you what Bob Cratchit, I'll give it away.

00:34:42

JPC

Bob Cratchit. So all the same actor that played this?

Erin

You could say that.

JPC

You could say that. Wait, give me the list again. Who's the first one?

Erin

Bob Cratchit. Captain Abraham Smollett. I don't know if I'm saying that last name. Scarecrow.

Adal

Can I ask a question? Yes or no. Is Captain Abraham Smollett from Muppet's Treasure Island?

Erin

Perhaps.

Adal

So these are all the same Muppet that played these characters.

Erin

Yes.

Adal

And I forget the guy's name. Stan Plur.

Erin

Forget the guy's name.

Adal

Don's a Kermit, is it?

Erin

It is.

Adal

Wow.

Erin

So the answer is Kermit the Frog.

Adal

I was thinking for Muppet Show, there's some little thing, some little guy with glasses who did the stage managing.

Erin

There are all roles that Kermit the Frog has played in the Muppet's Christmas Carol, Muppet Treasure Island, the Muppet's Wizard of Oz, which I totally forgot about.

Adal

I didn't know that was a thing.

Erin

And the Muppet Show, yeah.

Adal

I would watch this shit out of that. Is Miss Piggy Dorothy?

Erin

Or is it like a live action Dorothy? I'm looking it up.

Adal

I have to imagine it's like Cher or something. I saw somebody who played me a clip the other day, my friend Anne.

Erin

Yeah, I think it's a human woman.

Adal

She played me a clip and it's a video of Cher and it's just camera on Cher and she goes like, now I present to you, this is a production of West Side Story. I will be playing all the parts. And then it cuts into, it's like overlapped where it's like when you're a jet, you're a jet all the way and then another Cher comes out and another Cher and they're all dressed like Van and Grease. It's amazing. Please watch that video. I don't want to.

00:36:06

Erin

Ashanti is Dorothy.

Adal

Queen Latifah is on M. I joked about Ashanti. Good. It's good to joke about her.

Erin

Quinterantino as himself.

Adal

Does he play the Wizard of Oz?

Erin

Weird.

JPC

Is he just looking at feet behind that curtain?

Adal

Yeah, I was going to say, I just was about to say, Dorothy, put your feet under the curtain.

Erin

I know I've seen this.

JPC

I've never seen any Muppet things.

Erin

That's my favorite. And then Miss Piggy's Glinda.

Adal

I thought that was your favorite. Erin, your favorite Muppets take Manhattan, right? Which I've never seen.

Erin

Yeah. No, no, no. The Great Muppet Caper. The Great Muppet Caper is my all-time favorite. I also love Christmas Carol and Muppets from Space.

Adal

I love Muppets from Space. And that's where the Muppets go in the Challenger.

Erin

But I would say the Great Muppet Keeper is one of my top five favorite movies of all time. And one of the best potato toppings.

Adal

I want to see an audition. Erin, you are such a big Muppet fan. You've seen all the movies and they are doing a Muppets do... Vaudeville. The Shining? Muppets do Vaudeville. And Erin, they're doing a casting, they're scouting in Chicago and you show up as a new Muppet, whatever that might be, and here's your audition. Um, whenever you're ready, go ahead. What was your name again?

00:37:26

Erin

My name's Erin. I know that you're looking for a human woman to be in this movie. Um, okay. But, um, I, uh, I thought maybe I was sorry.

Adal

Could you back up a little bit? Uh, you're a little close to me. My name is Kermit the Frog. Of course, the stands for Timothy Halifant Edward.

JPC

I'm just a little starstruck and I'm of course Gonzo. And this is how I talk when I'm not at work.

Erin

He's an alien. Okay, so I sort of prepared a new Muppet. This Muppet is called Melted Miss Piggy, and I would love to have the opportunity to show it to you. Go big or go home, right?

Adal

Um, okay. Yeah, those are the two options. Well, we're Muppets, so go small, or stay watch, as our expression, maybe we're really Melted Miss Piggy.

Erin

Here we go.

Adal

Was that it?

Erin

No, I'm just getting into it. Okay. Um, let's see. Um, um, oh, oh, I'm breaking now. Oh God, I'm melting. I'm in the fire. Oh, hey. Oh, Kermee. Oh, Kermee. Help me. Help me. I'm melting. Kermee. Oh my God. Oh, uh, oh, Miss Piggy.

00:38:32

Adal

Okay, I'm gonna stop you right there. Help me cur me I'm melting is a direct line of dialogue from Muppets Goin' the Challenger.

JPC

Dondo? I loved it. I have no notes.

Adal

Well, Gonzo does run the show. I'm just the stage manager.

JPC

Yeah, don't ever fucking forget it. You know who's in charge, Gonzo. Yeah, that's right. You don't know how tough my life is. I have to crawl these Muppets, Cookie Muppets.

Adal

Waka, waka, waka. Do you want to come to my trailer? Waka.

Erin

I'll walk you over there. Fuzzy, no. Of course it's the stand-up comedian.

JPC

This is Fuzzy Weinstein.

Erin

There's the fucking creep.

Adal

Fuck this. Seed. Okay. Of course, it's the standard.

Erin

Wanka Wanka.

JPC

So we've got two of this.

Erin

Okay, so this is a different type of format. I want to know what comes forth in the following sequence.

Adal

And I'm so sorry, is this the same person? Yep. Okay, same person. Wait, those weren't only connects that we were doing?

00:39:36

Erin

Yeah, the there's only connect has four different rounds and there's all different kinds. I want to know what comes forth in the following sequence. You only get three clues, but maybe you won't get any.

Adal

And wait, maybe we won't get any.

Erin

Maybe you won't need any clues.

Adal

Got it. Ready.

Erin

Hey Riddle Riddle. Hey Riddle Riddle 2. Hey Riddle Riddler. Hey Riddle Riddle with a vengeance.

Adal

So these are all diehard movies. Yeah. And the last one was Die Hard or Die Home?

Erin

Okay, you either gotta die really hard, or you're gonna go home and you gotta die there.

Adal

Die Hard or Die Home.

JPC

It's so hard to say.

Adal

Would it be Get Hey or Die Riddling? So the last one was Die Hardest. Die... Live for your Die Hard. That was the last one. So it'd be Live Riddle, Hey Riddle, Hey Riddle Riddle, live free or die riddle.

Erin

I know you guys can't see Adal and GPC, but they're both falling downstairs at the same time.

00:40:36

JPC

Our noses are bleeding.

Erin

It's just word associating as they fall down the stairs.

JPC

So live free or die home. I'm just splitting into a bunch of sticks and falling into a pile.

Erin

Live free or hey riddle riddle.

Adal

Perfect. Okay.

Erin

Oh, this one is too similar to one.

Adal

Hey Riddle, Tokyo Drift. Yeah. Too hey, too riddle. Tokyo Keif. Ready? Yes.

Erin

Austria, Madagascar, Italy.

Adal

These are all places the Von Trapp family hid.

Erin

You also need to get the fourth in the sequence, but no.

Adal

Austria, Madagascar, Italy. So Austria is known for Salzburg. Madagascar is known for animal life, naked and afraid. Italy is known for Rome. These are all things cell phones do.

Erin

No, you always forget that when you're watching Sound of Music, you sit down, you watch it, and you go, oh yeah, this is about Nazis. Because all I think about when I think about it is them doing that, high on the hill, there was a lonely go-to, lay-o, lay-o, lay-dee-hoo.

JPC

These are all places that Mario Batali has taken his shit.

00:41:37

Adal

I took a sound and music tour in Austria and they take you to like the gazebo and all these places and then the final stop is the mountain range that they run over and the guy's like, this is the mountain range the von Trapp family runs over. In the movie they say it's Switzerland but these mountains go directly into Germany. So in reality they are running straight into the arms of the Nazis. And the entire bus is like, what the fuck? It was amazing. So, Erin, can I ask, does this have something to do with the first letter of each of these? Nope.

Erin

It's not a word thing, but that's always a good guess.

Adal

Austria, Madagascar, Italy. So, mad at gas car is a pun.

Erin

It's not a word based thing. It's actually the country. We're talking about these countries.

Adal

So, is it something the country's known for? Is it bodily of water specific? Bodily of water? Bodily of water. Your body is a water. Your body is a water park. Because you're wet.

Erin

Dude, this is...

Adal

Is this a hard one?

Erin

This is really, really, really hard.

00:42:38

JPC

Do I have to have a knowledge of geography? Is this like a triangulation thing?

Adal

Do we have to know capitals or iconic landmarks?

Erin

No, you do maybe thinking about the accent from these countries and then thinking about where you've heard these accents.

Adal

So Austrian accent is going to be Hans and Franz or Jean-Claude Van Damme. Is Hans and Franz from Austria? I think they are. We want to pump you up. Madagascar.

Erin

What are some other famous Austrians?

Adal

Austria. Duke Ferdinand.

Erin

Maybe like characters not real people.

Adal

The Austrian, famous Austrian characters.

Erin

This one is, again, not as iconic as some of the, the one that you're missing is the most iconic.

Adal

Is it a Mike Myers character? Are they cartoon?

Erin

Is it a cartoon? No, but you're totally on the right track.

Adal

Is it an SNL alum?

Erin

No, it's not an SNL alum.

Adal

It's a comedian. So Austrian. Oh, Arnold Schwarzenegger. So think of an Austrian accent.

Erin

So they had a character that had an Austrian accent. They had a Madagascar accent, which is that one's, the two middle ones are hard.

00:43:43

Adal

These are all problematic Jeff Dunham puppets.

Erin

No, Madagascar, Italy.

JPC

Famous comedians who just took a fucking paycheck and did an animated feature.

Adal

Who does a Madagascar accent? I can't even think what that means.

JPC

Is it from the movie Madagascar? You just hissed like a cockroach? Yeah.

Erin

So that one is an animated one, but the rest are not.

JPC

These are all Ray Romano paychecks.

Erin

No, so it's the same actor doing different characters in each of these.

Adal

Is it Chris Rock? No. So David Schwimmer.

Erin

Who's done an Austrian one? I will say that their most famous character is from the country that you haven't said yet.

Adal

So who's doing a ton of, like, accents? Well, who is in Madagascar? So let's go over. It's an SNL alum, you said? No, no, it's not. I'm sorry, you said.

Erin

I would say this person is... I like the... Ray Liotta. They maybe choose to do stuff that is not my favorite kind of thing, but when I've seen them in things that aren't necessarily... John Leguizamo. produced by them. I've been pretty blown away by their singing talent and their talent in general.

Adal

Hugh Jackman. But they're known as a producer?

Erin

No, they are known for writing and performing in their own work. Oh, Spalding Grey. But they also do a lot of things like the Madagascar and Italy one are not the ones that... Give me a hint.

00:44:56

Adal

Give me a hint.

Erin

What's the tiniest hint? Really, maybe sort of makes people uncomfortable. Has no shame seemingly. Like can go up to anyone and say anything as any character.

Adal

I haven't had a laugh. Oh, I know, I know it. Here we go.

Erin

All right, what's the fourth country then? I know it.

Adal

Hold on. It would be, I think it would just be British.

Erin

No.

Adal

It would be England, right?

Erin

No, the fourth country's not.

Adal

No, I'm sorry, it would be Kazakhstan. Yeah.

Erin

Is it Kazakhstan or Kazakhstan? I think it's Kazakhstan. He was in Madagascar?

JPC

But I think allergies is the most famous, which would just be English. Kazakhstan.

Erin

Well, I figured that Borat is a little bit more famous.

Adal

I think it is. I think there's been more allergy done, I think Borat's the more quoted.

Erin

It was so hard to not say my wife.

Adal

Austria was the movie he did that was like the designer called Bruno. Bruno, that's right.

Erin

And then he was in Madagascar, and then Italy is a little tricky because... Did he do that movie, Lee is a spy? No, it's him and Sweeney Todd, where he plays Pirelli, who is the Italian barber.

00:46:01

Adal

He was in Wayne Mays and Sweeney Todd. Yeah.

Erin

I thought he was amazing and lame as the end screen. He was the bad guy until the good nights.

Adal

That's right. I saw his new... He's so good in that too. There's a new Netflix series that Tim is like an Israeli spy. I watched like three episodes of and at first it was a weird journey of like, this is great. And then like 10 minutes later, I was like, this is pretty cool. And then like 10 minutes later, I was like, this is bad. Well, you realized what Israeli spies do to your people and you were like,

JPC

No, no, no. I don't like, don't like. No, no, no, no, no. Fuck, that was hard.

Adal

Canonically sniped my grandpa in the head. That's fact.

JPC

I know. I had no idea he was in fucking Madagascar. I guess I just have not been following Sacha Baron Cohen's career with any sort of- But you have been.

Adal

You got a tattoo of Isla Fisher. I do. I love the Isla. These are great. Can we keep going?

Erin

Yes. I want to thank Alan and I'm going to, he wrote like a lot more and so I'm going to go back to them later. But thank you so much Alan.

00:47:06

JPC

Thank you. Alan, something special coming your way from the universe, not from us. So just be on the lookout for good things in your life.

Adal

Alan, if you write some more and send us, which we hope you do, I hope they have more power.

Erin

One second, you guys.

Adal

There we go. There we go. Time stamp. All right, ready? Yeah. Ready? Ready? Yes.

Erin

The capital of Peru.

Adal

Lima. These are all beans. Boca tat Colombia. These are all types of beans.

Erin

Famous Shakespearean character who commits suicide. Oh, Thallelujah. Yeah.

Adal

That works. A homophone for what you're speaking into now. How much 2.2 pounds would weigh to a Brit? Can I just say I'm not a homophone? No.

00:48:12

Erin

No.

Adal

How much? 21 grams.

Erin

Not grams. 2.2 pounds would weigh to a Brit.

Adal

A stone. 21 kilos.

Erin

One. Stone. One.

Adal

Kilo.

Erin

One. So it's Lema, Juliet, Mike, and Kilo.

Adal

These are all, are these all? Phonetic alphabet. This is like the army. Yeah, it's a phonetic alphabet. Echo Bravo. Phonetic alphabet. The phonetic alphabet.

Erin

And JBC got it. Are we ready? Yes. Very intelligent water-dwelling mammals.

Adal

Shark. Dolphins.

Erin

Yes. A Destiny's child would say, can you pay my autumn-o?

Adal

Bills. Dolphin. Bills. These are all NFL teams.

Erin

Wait, you gotta wait. A bill signed into law by George Bush after 9-11. Bears.

???

Patriot Act.

Erin

The Bear Act. Let's get more bears in schools. What the blue angels fly.

Adal

Ooh, that would be the Texan... Airplanes. That would be the New York Giants.

00:49:15

Erin

Jets. It's technically NFL teams, but more specifically...

JPC

Eastern Division EFC. Oh my gosh, I didn't even read who these were from. Oh, no.

Erin

I'm so sorry. Let me read who they're. These are from Kathleen.

JPC

I'm so sorry.

Erin

Hi, Kathleen.

JPC

Your sister?

Erin

These are from you. No, different Kathleen. What? Or no, her name's Katie.

JPC

So hi to your sister, Kathleen, and then also hi to this Katie person.

Erin

No, well Katie is... I'm sorry, I read... Her name is Katie. Hi, Katie. Hi, Katie.

Adal

I think we missed one.

Erin

She goes by Katie. I want to read her. I made some riddles in the style of Only Connect. It's my first time making riddles, so I hope they work okay. I've attached a Word document. Oh, and then she told me not to read anything else. Then she just says really, really sweet things. Thank you so much, Katie. We appreciate your support. And specifically, thank you for writing Riddles meant to make me happy. That means so much. All right. Katie said, I'll accept just NFL teams if someone says Go Bills. Do you guys want to say Go Bills?

00:50:18

Adal

God, no.

JPC

I'm not going to go on the record of saying that.

Adal

And I'm sorry, I think we missed one, Erin. So we have Dolphins, Bills, Jets. There was one that was like an act sign in. What was it? Patriot?

Erin

Patriot.

Adal

We got that. OK.

Erin

Yeah. Thomas Middleditch's HBO character.

Adal

He's on Silicon Valley, open marriage. His Silicon Valley is Eric? No.

JPC

No, that's the other guy. His is... No, no, no. It's like something spazzy. Richard.

Erin

A celebrity president.

Adal

Chevy Chase, that would be Ronald Reagan.

Erin

Ronald? I'm going to keep going. The full first name of Batman's sidekick.

Adal

Robyn Alfred. Robyn LaRue.

Erin

Cartoon alcoholic genius that travels through space with his grandson.

Adal

Rick. Pickle Rick. Richard Robin Rick. These are all first names with R. What was the second one, the clue for the second one that we didn't get?

Erin

A celebrity president.

Adal

That would be Ronald Reagan.

Erin

Is it a full first name of Batman's sidekick? It's not Ronald Reagan.

00:51:21

Adal

Is it Donald?

Erin

No, it's like a famous president. I wouldn't say like a celebrity president.

Adal

Famous president is literally the most redundant term I've ever fucking heard in my life.

Erin

Famous presidents?

Adal

What? But here's the thing, the fact that you know the name Calvin Coolidge? And he was president in like 1494?

Erin

No, this is a, like, like of... Fuck. Fuck. This is the kind of president, like if you're naming presidents rapid fire, this is probably one... Is this a US president? Yes, it's probably one you mentioned in your top 10. Obama, Bill Clinton. Because it's like one that we talked a lot about.

Adal

Washington, Lincoln, Taft. This is not like a TV show president?

Erin

Well, think of the other clues.

Adal

Well so far they're all our words. So Ronald Reagan was a famous actor who has an R first name. Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan. Yeah. Obama? Richard Nixon, famous president? Yeah.

Erin

So famous. Are you kidding?

Adal

I'm going to get a tattoo of my displeasure with this. He's one of the only presidents who's been impeached.

Erin

He's the only president who's ever resigned.

Adal

Bill Clinton much?

00:52:22

JPC

Dick, Dick, Robin, Rick. What is this?

Erin

Dick, Dick, Robin, Rick? I'm not saying, I didn't confirm that you got some of these right.

JPC

Oh, okay. Go back again.

Erin

Thomas Middleditch. Richard. Yep. Mm-hmm. A celebrity president. Richard, Richard. The first name of Batman, Sidekick.

JPC

Also Richard. Yeah. So these are all Richard. And Rick is the nickname for Rick Richard.

Adal

My four dicks.

JPC

My four dicks. All right, Adal. Nope. I want to see a scene. This is going to be a scene from the set of the very popular sitcom, My Four Dicks. And the theme song for My Four Dicks, as we all know, I will be doing, is done by the band, Cake.

Erin

No way.

JPC

I need a baseline for dicks living under one roof. Will they get to the center of truth? Will they learn about each other enough that they can make sense of the dick name stuff? My four dicks are filmed for not doing that.

00:53:29

Adal

Knock, knock, knock.

Erin

Oh no. It's dick.

Adal

Hold on. Audience, shut up. Shut up. We tried to go with single cam because we thought we'd be like the office, but we went back old school, like live studio audience, and you're ruining it. It's good enough.

Erin

The warm up comic really warmed us up, and now we want to laugh.

Adal

I am the guest star. I am a famous president. Say my name. You know me, I'm a famous president.

Erin

Teddy, no. Teddy Franklin.

Adal

You think Teddy Roosevelt's a famous president?

Erin

Yeah.

Adal

Think again. Are you the peanut guy? Excuse me, Jimmy Carter? You think Jimmy Carter's a famous president? I thought Mr. Peanut was president. You're talking about Baby Nut?

Erin

He looks like Teddy Roosevelt.

Adal

Not Franklin Roosevelt, not Teddy, not Jimmy Carter. Give us a hint, how tall are you?

JPC

I'm a famous president.

Adal

How tall are you? Six footish.

Erin

Okay, um, are you? Coolidge? John Quincy Adams?

Adal

Calvin Coolidge.

Erin

Andrew Jackson.

Adal

Oh, come on guys, famous. I love Coolidge. Fourteen, sixteen.

00:54:33

Erin

Next one. Last name of American president that fired Hamilton and previously called him a Creole bastard.

Adal

Aaron Freer, sir. Thomas Jefferson. No. No? Tom Jefferson's going home.

JPC

Oh, who fired him?

Adal

Adams. Adam Zoumata's a hatter.

Erin

The college Tom Brady attended.

Adal

He went to University of Michigan. Did he?

Erin

Go blue.

Adal

Is it Michigan or University of Michigan?

Erin

I think it was like a pack-up quarterback. City that hosts Summerfest.

Adal

Summerfest is Milwaukee. Wow.

Erin

Good job, Adal. I know my Midwest. Famous, but controversial, 24-year-old YouTuber, Blank Paul.

Adal

PewDiePie, Aaron Paul. No. Les Paul, Rand Paul.

Erin

No. I'm proud of you both for not knowing this. Jake Paul, Jake Paul. No, there's a different, his brother.

Adal

Peter Paul and Mary. Is it not Erin Paul? Nick Paul.

Erin

I think Jake Paul is this guy's brother.

JPC

I don't forget what... Smash that subscribe button, bitch! Wait, is this the guy who went to the ghost forest and... Yeah, this guy sucks.

00:55:38

Erin

Those two guys suck more than any other. And that's not Jake Paul? No, it's a different... it's his brother.

Adal

I thought that was Jake Paul. Here's the honest truth. All those people that we just threw out there, I combined into just Jake Paul. I thought that was all one guy. And you're telling me this is like three different YouTubers?

JPC

No, it's two brothers. It's two brothers. They do really shitty things too. Like they do like videos of them like punching portables.

Erin

They're billionaires.

Adal

But I'm not gonna get this.

Erin

Well think of the other things we have. Adams, Michigan, Milwaukee.

Adal

These are all streets in Chicago.

Erin

Yeah. State.

Adal

Oh, Grand. Grand Paul. State. Grand. Oh, Clark.

Erin

Division.

Adal

This is also a neighborhood. Lincoln, Arbitage. Lincoln Park, Paul. Wrigleyville, Paul. Bronzeville, Paul.

Erin

No, Cooler.

Adal

Cooler, younger neighborhood. Oh, yes. Lakeview, Paul. Streeterville, Paul. Andersonville, Paul. North Center, Paul.

Erin

Oh, I love Andersonville. Gold Coast, Paul.

Adal

Oh, Edmondston, Paul.

Erin

Skokie, Paul? No.

Adal

Shomp, Paul?

Erin

No. Mokino? West. It's a little bit west.

JPC

West Paul. Logan Paul. Yes. I truly didn't know it until we got it.

00:56:39

Erin

Love Logan Square, you could not pay me enough to live there.

Adal

Here's the thing, I live in Logan Square.

Erin

Yeah, you could pay me enough to live there.

Adal

Adal, do they pay you enough to live there? I do get paid by the Aldermen.

JPC

Well, we all do.

Adal

It's Chicago. Because I accidentally get his mail because Aldermen's looks a lot like Adal Rifai.

Erin

Adal, I only say that because I don't have a car. And can you imagine my life without the red line or the brown line?

Adal

The blue line gets me... Well, I teach at UIC. So the blue line gets me to UIC and then IO I can take... Yeah, I guess I can take a car. Take a reliever. Like a $7 Uber. These are great. Ready? Can we do one more?

Erin

Um, yeah. Hold on, let me see which one of you is going to be more fun.

JPC

Can we please have more fun, ma'am?

Erin

Mummy? Mummy more fun? Alright, one more. It's from Katie.

JPC

Thank you, ma'am.

Erin

Thank you, Katie. What the Wrigleys are most famous for outside of Chicago.

JPC

Gracism.

Erin

Is that true?

00:57:46

JPC

Hey Riddle

Erin

Um, ready?

JPC

Erin, do you like our new game? Do you still like this?

???

No, that's not what happened.

Erin

Yes. Good. All we are are dust in the wind.

Adal

Wind. Gum wind. Gum wind. Gum wind. Oh, these are all, um... Stop guessing after the second one.

Erin

Oh shoot, I'm not sure how to pronounce his name and I'm so sorry. Oh, these are all planet Earthlings.

Adal

Gum. Wind. Racism. Monkey. Monkey. Donkey.

Erin

Half poor Julius Bjornson, who played the mountain in Game of Thrones, is the blankest man in the world.

Adal

He's the strongest man in the world. Is he really? Yeah. Wow.

Erin

So, it's not is, it's not is because I added is. Strong. If you're post potatoes, you're

00:58:48

Adal

I'm really enjoying you Katie, thank you for writing these.

Erin

One is sort of Hey Riddle Riddle related, but it's a word that you put before each of these.

Adal

Before each of these? Chewing gum. Chewing dead. Chewing strong. This week on chewing dead. Bad strong. Bad gum. Bad dad. Oh boy.

Erin

Or one you put after.

JPC

Oh, come on.

Adal

Which is the one that you put after?

Erin

The last one.

Adal

Dead Man's Curve. And it's not stopped.

Erin

It's a combined, it will make one word.

Adal

It will make one word. So gumshoe is something I know, but you said before.

JPC

I got it, I got it, I got it.

Adal

Hold on, let me get it. Erin, can I write it down? It's gum, wind, headstrong, headwind, headgum, head dead.

Erin

You got it. Oh, JPC, you got it.

Adal

Headgum's our network.

Erin

Yeah. Well, thank you so much, Katie. I'm going to save your other ones too. Katie Rule and everyone who wrote in today. Thank you so much. Please keep sending these. I really, these are fun and I think different from the rest of the things we do. So I really appreciate you guys listening.

01:00:02

JPC

And Katie, you actually have something very special to you. Your significant other, Paul, wanted us to ask live on the air, will you marry him?

Adal

No, no, no, no, no. No, different person.

JPC

Oh, okay, I'm sorry. That's Logan Paul. That's just to break you.

Erin

Anything to plug, Adal?

Adal

I do want to say, just to piggyback off what you just said, the people who write in riddles are breathing life literally into the dying corpse of the show, so please continue to do this.

JPC

There's a special place in hell.

Adal

Please continue to send us original riddles because we will need them and we thank you so much for doing that. Also, come check us out at World News Tonight. So many people, I think, think it's spelled world, W-O-R-L-D, the normal way. It's actually spelled world, W-H-I-R-L-E-D. I thought you were going to leave it at that.

Erin

It's actually spelled world, so check us out.

Adal

So check us out. World News tonight, every Saturday at I.O. Theatre, 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. We can't promise that all three of us will be there or that any of us will be there because we're busy, but typically two or more of us are there.

01:01:07

Erin

There was a time recently that all three of us were there and it was a freaking party.

Adal

Yeah, and if you come, let us know maybe beforehand or stick around after to say hi and don't be shy because sometimes we leave and people are like, we wanted to say hi, but we're nervous.

JPC

Hey, but most of the time I just leave, so you did miss me.

Erin

Hey Riddle. All three of them.

Adal

I collected the whole set. And also, if you come to the show, it would be very cool if you wore some Hey Riddle Riddle merch just so we can eyeball you and know to... Blow you kisses.

Erin

Pat always sees it. Pat's always like, I see a t-shirt in the second row.

Adal

But you can go to teapublic.com and check out some of our merch. We have some great stuff in there and probably some new stuff coming soon. So grab some merch.

Erin

JPC?

JPC

Yes. So if you are shopping in a retail store and you see something that you like in the store that you want to buy, go ahead and get out your phone, check their website for that same item, see if there is a sale or if they're running a sale on the website, you can force most stores to honor the web price. It's good consumer practice. I highly advise you to do so.

01:02:27

Erin

JPC, what do we have to do to get you to start a podcast about financing?

JPC

I will not do that. I will only start a podcast where I get to yell at a dog about taxes.

Erin

Okay. Well, that's what I asked. Follow me, Erin Keif 10 on Instagram or check out my series. Welcome back on YouTube. Just type in welcome back, Erin Keif.

Adal

Thank you. And Erin, let me give you, this is going to be kind of a connect, only connect, is that what it's called? Yeah, yeah. So this is going to be space, giant, red, and Mupitor.

Erin

Is it cake?

Adal

It is cake. Mupitor vibe.

Erin

Mupitor vibe.

Adal

Mupitor vibe. Mupitor vibe. Mupitor vibe.

JPC

Mupitor vibe. Mupitor vibe. Mupitor vibe. Mupitor vibe. Mupitor vibe. Mupitor vibe. Mupitor vibe. One, two, three, four, five, five! Yeah! Jazz! One, two, three, four, five. I'm a little podcast mouse and I like to do my dance.

01:03:56

Adal

One, two, three, four, five. I'm a little podcast cat and I'm looking for a mouse to fuck.

Erin

One, two, three, four, five. I'm a little podcast raccoon and I'm looking for a cat to eat and fuck.

Adal

In what order, please let me know.

Erin

You eat the mouse and you fuck the mouse. You eat the cat and I fuck the mouse.

JPC

We are fucking cats and mice together.

Adal

All right. Any plugs?

Erin

The cat chases the mouse and the mouse chases the raccoon and the raccoon chases the cat. That's the way of the world. It's a chase. It's a chase. The cat eats a mouse. The raccoon eats a cat. The mouse eats a raccoon and they fuck in the bed. It's a nest, it's a nest.

Adal

It's a nest bed, nest bed. Raccoon fucks the mouse and the mouse eats raccoon.

Erin

No, no, that's not the order. The raccoon fucks the cat.

01:04:58

Adal

Teach me mommy, teach me mommy, teach me mommy, please.

Erin

The raccoon fucks the cat. The cat fucks the mouse. The mouse fucks the raccoon, take me. Listen very close and I'll tell you the fuck order.

Adal

Yes, fuck order, fuck order. Mommy's little fuck order.

Erin

Oh no.

Adal

What is mommy's fuck order? Mommy tell us please. Before we go to bed, we need to know this please.

JPC

Casey, and I want to ask and I don't want to disrupt the flow. Is the concept of super recording a thing and was that super recorded?

Erin

The raccoon fucks a cat and the cat fucks a mouse. The mouse fucks a raccoon. That's the most romantic part.

Adal

Before we go, let me recap the fuck order. Mommy's little fuck order. Ready for recap. The mouse pucks a mouse. Raccoon eats the piss. Piss e-roads. Everything I miss. And the mother nature sings and the mother earth earth. Humans fuck the earth for their oil. Money. Oil, money, Amazon. Jeff Bezos is killing us all.

Erin

No, no, no. Repeat after me. Cat eats the mouse.

01:06:02

Adal

Okay. Cat eats the mouse.

Erin

Cat fucks the mouse.

Adal

Mm-hmm. Cat fucks my mouse. I can't get it right.

Erin

Again, again, again. So the mouse eats the mouse fucks the cocoon and the racoon fucks a cat. The cat fucks a mouse and we peek in again.

Adal

I have a question mommy, just to be sure. The cat fucks my mouth? Is that what I heard?

Erin

No, no, no. Let me begin again. The mouth is in love with the raccoon. This feels so good. The mouse loves a raccoon. The raccoon loves a cat. The cat loves a mouth. It's a love triangle. The cat loves a mouth?

Adal

You definitely said mouth.

Erin

I'm not saying mouth. I'm saying mouth. We can't say mouth.

Adal

Mommy, mommy, mommy. Let's replay that audio. I think you said mouth and I think you'll be surprised.

Erin

The mouth loves a raccoon. The raccoon loves a cat. The cat likes a mouse and kiss, kiss, kiss.

01:07:05

Adal

What about the password? Are we ready?

???

That was a head gum podcast.
