Hi, my name is Eric Andre. And I feel. like sandpaper. >> [laughter]. >> Ask [clears throat] Conan O'Brien's. friend. >> How do you sandpaper? >> I don't know. I realized last time I. said moist, so I was about to say moist. again and then I I was like, "No, you. already did that joke." And then I was. like, "What's the opposite of moist?". >> [music].
>> Hey there, welcome to Conan O'Brien. Needs a Friend. I am joined by Sona. Movsesian. Hey Sona. >> Hi. >> Matt Gourley, how are you, sir? >> I'm good, thanks. >> Um I'm going to attempt something that. has very low odds of working. >> Yeah. >> And I'll explain why. I thought, "Hey, maybe we should talk about World Cup.". Um it's a huge thing, massive, biggest. sporting event in the world. It's uh. involves 48 countries. It's being hosted. by Canada, Mexico, USA. But here's the problem.
I don't think anyone here in this. podcast right now, I'm just the three of. us, really cares about the World Cup. >> That's not true. >> It is true. >> It's not true. >> I don't think you care at all. >> I'm sorry, it's the only sports I ever. watch every four years. I really enjoy. them. >> The only sports I ever watch? >> I know, yeah. You're not selling it. >> I'm not You guys know that I don't care. about sports. >> love it, too, cuz soccer players are. hot. They're really attractive. >> That's why I watch. >> with your boys, you go, "I'd do that. guy.". >> Yeah, and I high five him and like, "Right, boys?" You He can be your dad. >> Yeah. >> Bye-bye.
>> Oh my god, you guys want a brother? >> [laughter]. >> That's just Come on, man. Clean it up, Sona. >> I love tact, too. I don't want. >> Too, no, too. [laughter]. >> That's nice. My heart also has warmth for the father. of my children. [laughter]. >> Uh. okay, I shouldn't say that, but I'll say. is I wouldn't say the three of us are. well versed in talking about World Cup. And we are recording this. um I think three weeks ahead of time so. we don't know.
where in the world cup. certain teams will be who will be. eliminated what's going on so we're. really attempting something that I think. is difficult on maybe seven different. levels. >> Yeah. >> And um. >> Do you say several or seven? >> He mixed both. On seven different. levels. Yeah, well sorry. >> Sorry I didn't let it slide. >> I'm sorry. I have a hard. >> I was [laughter] going to let it go. >> No no but I have a hard time when I talk. about. the sports of soccer. >> [laughter]. >> Oh that's right. You didn't let that go.
you. Yeah, hit him. Hit him hard. >> So what I'm going to do is I'm going to. ask Eduardo to really help us out here. because Eduardo this this is something. that's very near and dear to your heart. You need to supply the passion here. >> Okay. >> You need to supply the passion cuz I'm. not going to get it from anywhere else. on this table. >> All right. >> So let's talk about it. We're a couple. of weeks in. What do you think has. happened by this point? Who's been. eliminated? >> man. >> Come on. >> All right. So I'll tell you that going. into this is the top five countries. predicted to compete for the final is. Argentina, Spain, France, Portugal.
and maybe Germany or England. Give or take one of them. So the same as. it almost always is without Brazil. >> So where are the Dutch? >> The Dutch are actually considered a dark. horse in this tournament. >> Yeah that's what I thought. >> No no I did know that the Dutch and it's. funny cuz when you think someone saying. where are the Dutch you'd be like oh. he's making a joke. No I'm not. They. they're very good. >> Yes. >> And they could come out of nowhere. Wouldn't that be fantastic if the Dutch. were still in play? >> surprised if they're making a deep run. So so if we're looking into our crystal.
ball that's a good prediction. >> And if you're listening right now and. the Dutch are out of it that's on. Eduardo. >> Okay. >> I believe [laughter] you. >> Sure. I'll take that one. >> Okay so go ahead. Tell us more. >> Yeah it's being hosted by three. different countries all North American. >> What does that mean when they say. hosting [snorts] it? Yes that's where the actual events are. taking place but does it do they also. have to you know know, you hear host. sometimes you think they have to supply. food, uh drinks, that kind of thing. >> the Olympics, man. >> hosting it for game night. >> I know, I'm [clears throat] just trying. to do a new thing where when you host, you really should be a host.
>> Oh. You shouldn't charge for food and. drink. >> should be a ambiance and music. >> be music. You should uh it's just an. idea I had. >> Awkward banter in the beginning. >> Yeah, exactly. And then people should. say, "Hey, knock it off." if it goes. after 10. >> [laughter]. >> Um. >> Every spectator has to send a thank you. note. Yes. >> about. >> Thank you notes are huge. >> Speaking of after 10, the cool thing. about this one for us that live here in. the States or North America, the times. are like reasonable times for us to. watch. >> So, I don't have to go to a pub at 3:00. in the morning to watch Croatia uh play.
against Orlando. >> Correct. There'll be games starting at. noon, and the last game will be like at. 7:00 at night. So. >> Yeah. Cool find. >> Uh yeah, it's a full days of soccer. >> Uh let me ask you something. And And. this is something cuz I'm a patriot. Uh. America's getting better. Aren't we. getting better? It's It's I know it's a. long road, but what does America have to. do to really be competitive in world. soccer? That's a good question, I think. >> It's a great question. They have taken a. lot of steps forward and a couple small. steps back. So, this one.
it's a crap shoot. USA, some of us. wouldn't be surprised if they're still. in it at this time in 3 weeks. Some of. us wouldn't be surprised if they're. actually winning. >> you fall on Twitter? What do you think? >> I I'd be surprised if they're still in. it at this point in 3 weeks. That's not. to say that they're not good. I I just. >> Is it one of those things where it's. just it's. we didn't. um In other countries, it's just such a. part of the culture, and it's not as. much here. And maybe you Is this a graph. that's never going to completely take? Meaning, will we ever be really.
competitive with Argentina, with uh. Spain, some of these other countries? >> think we will get there. I think it's. just taking a lot longer. I think we're. competing as like the fourth major. sport, well, now fourth major sport. At. one point, it was like the fifth or. sixth major sport in this country. It's slowly turning with the help of. that. >> has slowed us down. >> I agree. >> I think the the excitement around. pickleball excitement around pickleball. I think we were starting to gain and. then everybody who was really starting. to get interested in soccer or as course. other say football. Um they pickleball.
came around and now I think it's that. has added another 100 years. >> I agree. >> We should ban pickleball. >> There's a lot of overlap. >> like that it competes. >> going to win a game? >> I hope so. Also what's that game. >> on your iPhone you put uh. >> Heads up. >> Heads up. I think heads up I think heads. up put us back another 100 years. >> I think Settlers of Catan as well. >> I think what's that? >> Settlers of Catan. >> What is that? >> It's this famous board game that. everybody played for like 10 years. >> there's like bartering.
Wheats and textiles. >> Oh I love it when people come over and. we have some wine and then we all start. bartering. I probably would. I probably. would. I shouldn't be I I shouldn't be. negative about it but I do think that. heads up. >> Yeah. >> Um something of Catan. >> [laughter]. >> Wait, you can get Catan but not. Settlers? Remember the hard one. >> I thought it was Chris Kattan. I thought. um. >> And pickleball. >> And then pickleball I think those things. have probably destroyed our chances of. being competitive in what I call.
football and what you would all call. soccer. Um [laughter]. Uh yeah I just I I'm Uh but anyway. that's what's happening. >> Yeah. >> I resolve almost every year to pick a. team and really get involved and really. follow soccer. >> So who are you going to pick? >> Yeah who's who's your pick? >> You got to go with the Dutch now. >> Uh I don't have to go with the Dutch. >> What was that figure of speech? >> That is true and and I think a. worthwhile figure of speech to be honest. with you. >> Do you know any soccer players?
>> Do I know them? >> Like in person I'm very good friends. >> I don't know the sport very well but I'm. very good friends with most of the. players. >> [laughter]. >> Messi Messi was at my house like 3 weeks. ago. >> Okay. >> He was. >> No. >> He comes by a lot. >> are not hanging out. >> What are you talking about? Why would. you find that hard to believe? He loves. my house and he always wants to go over. to Sandler's house and I'm like, "What. do you need Sandler for? I'm here." And. he's like, "Sandler much more famous. than you." I said, "Why are you talking. in that stilted way?" Um [laughter]. and he said, >> to do an Argentinian accent? >> Yeah, and he said, "Yeah, you know so. little about me. You do stilted accent.".
That's what he said. [laughter]. This is all true. He said, "Your impression of me belies. the fact that we are not friends and you. don't know me in real life." That's what. he said to me. >> [laughter]. >> And then I said, "Belies the fact? Why. are you speaking in broken English and. then saying belies the fact?" And he. said, "This is a terrible riff. Don't do. it on the podcast.". >> No, I'm going to do it several times. >> Yeah, I'm going to do it several. >> [laughter]. >> Okay, and that's funny. That's funny. >> That's when you misspoke, remember? >> I don't remember. I don't remember. It's. so seldom. It rarely happens at all.
It rarely [laughter] happens at all. Like that happened. >> He's dying right in front of us. >> Let's ask you a question. >> Sure. This is really dark, but let's say. something were to happen to me that was. a medical event and then later on that a. doctor said, "Didn't you hear it in the. podcast? The degeneration of his neuromuscular. ability to speak.". >> darker? You've asked this question. BEFORE. >> I KNOW. [laughter]. BUT AREN'T YOU GUYS GOING TO I KNOW THAT. I'VE ASKED IT BEFORE, but I'm begging.
you guys to please pay attention. >> Oh, no. >> misspeak, don't giggle. Say, "Are you. okay, Conan?". >> We're trying to move it along. Get let. it happen. >> Yeah, get me to the grave a little. faster. And you can all do your pity episode. "Oh, we're so sorry about Conan.". Ka-ching. >> It's going to be a Thursday episode. >> [laughter]. >> Oh, on a Thursday we talk about Conan's. passing. Oh my god, that would be great. >> [laughter]. >> And then stick around. We're getting. together the cast of Facts of Life. Oh, that'd be cool. >> Can you name them all?

I'm close. >> What?
>> Were you watching it recently? >> No, it just came to my head. >> God. >> Say something a lot of our listeners. think this thing is so well crafted they. must write it ahead of time and really. work out the architecture of it, and I. want to say that um I think this podcast. episode proves that that is not the. case. >> screwed. >> Because. >> team. >> we [laughter]. >> We are. >> You know, cuz we were just talking about. >> soccer. >> the Facts of Life. >> And then it's Facts of Life, and then. you're singing the song. >> the good, you take the bad, you take.

I'm saying. And it was just a clip show. and he was like Dick Clark / Hugh Hefner. and he intro'd all the weirdest clips. from The Muppet Show and I would watch. that VHS like over and over. Formative. Forma I haven't thought about that. I. don't know. >> it was uh Warner Brothers cartoons, but. I always thought, well, that's the form. of comedy is people getting stretched.
out, elongated, people looking to camera. and going, and then falling. >> Yeah. >> And I do think that if I had to, if I. stepped off a cliff. uh accidentally, I could. >> [snorts]. >> defy gravity for a second or two just to. look to a camera. >> Yeah, yeah. >> Before I fell. >> Make one joke. >> Yeah, and then I would walk away like an. accordion. Those are the I just willed. myself to be. >> [laughter]. >> The reality is you would have a horrible. >> and painful death. >> Yes. >> There's no comedic value.
>> Yes, Eric, I would, [laughter] but the. coroner would say, "Oh my god, we just looked at the x-rays of his. body. It's a it's a accordion.". >> [laughter]. >> You know, and then they would they would. push on each side of my body and go like. >> Yeah.

Berkeley School of Music, but I didn't. realize when you were a little kid and. you you started playing tuba when you. were really young.". >> Yeah, I played piano at five, tuba in. sixth grade, and cello and bass in high. school. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> And then so this is just something that. was in you. Like I. >> I went to I went to school in Boston. I.
went to Berkeley College of Jazz, daddy-o, and I played [laughter] the. I played the Seinfeld theme over and. over again for 4 years. Yeah, and I I. flicked a. dime under a lamp post [laughter] and. >> That was the course. >> [laughter]. >> I shot a apple off my wife's head or. whatever William S. Burroughs did. Do. you know about that? >> And he killed her, right? >> Yeah, but he. >> What? >> He killed his wife, and then when the.
cops come, he goes, "We were playing. William Tell, the game where you shoot a. apple off the head." It was more of like. uh I think he was like. the. laziest excuse for homicide. I'm sorry I. made your podcast so dark. I know you. don't go. >> This is what [laughter] people people. love true crime podcasts. So we're going. to become one briefly. But that's what I. always heard is the police show up, and. he went, "We were playing" and his. wife's lying there with a bullet in her. head, and he's like, "We were playing. William Tell.". And I tried to shoot an apple off her. head. Didn't work out, but she can't.
arrest me. >> Yeah, and the cops are like, "That's. legally like I [laughter] mean, that's. solid.". >> I'm sorry we bothered you. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> So wait. So he essentially killed her. and then went to the refrigerator, got. an apple, and placed it by her head, and. he just said I ate the apple. >> Oh, yeah. >> wasn't even an apple there? >> I don't know. All of us are talking. about the same thing, and guess what? >> WHAT KIND OF TRUE CRIME PODCAST is this? >> This is the best kind where people just. shoot off their mouths about a crime. that maybe didn't [laughter] even. happen. And I'm going to right now say. Eric doesn't know what the he's. talking about. I don't know what I'm.
talking about. We both just kind of. heard this thing. I yes I did. >> self-conscious cuz I was about to make. the same jazz jokes that I made on your. podcast last time. So I was like, what's. another beatnik that I haven't covered? William S. Burroughs. And then I heard. your audience. everyone's butthole dried out at that. >> Every. >> That moment was interesting and Adam. >> They were all moist until that Can we. say that on your podcast? >> holes are moist. >> You puritan. >> Adam Sachs. >> [laughter]. >> will confirm this. No one's ever.
listened to more than one of these. podcasts. We [laughter] have a huge huge. number of people, but we're just working. our way through Earth's population. >> [laughter]. >> But no one's ever after listening to one. listened to another. >> Wow. >> It's a very very strange way of getting. annoyed. >> like a. >> [laughter]. >> Repeat your stories at will. >> We got a verdict on William S. Burroughs? >> Yeah, it really. >> It's dark. You're about to look up some. dark. Yeah, go ahead. >> In 1951 in Mexico City, William S. Burroughs shot and killed his wife. >> and said he was playing William Tell. >> And how did he get off then?
>> He didn't. He was convicted. >> Oh, oh, [laughter] he was? Oh, I thought. he I thought they were like, >> So did he go to prison for a long time? >> He was convicted of culpable homicide in. Mexico, but but served only 13 days in. jail before his brother. secured his release on bail. >> Well, murder your wife, do it in Mexico. >> Go on down to Mexico. >> Wow. >> later convicted in absentia, receiving a. two-year suspended sentence. >> That's good. >> It doesn't seem that bad for. killing your wife.
>> Yeah. >> I'm just going to say a message to all. murderers out there, keep that William. Tell thing in your back pocket. >> Keep an apple and [laughter] the William. Tell story in your back pocket. >> And maybe do it with an apple and an. arrow. >> You came into a bank, took all the. money, and and shot someone. >> IT WAS A WILLIAM TELL GAME. >> [laughter]. >> I BARELY I barely know what William Tell. is beyond a guy that shot an apple off. of somebody's head with an arrow. Beyond. that, I couldn't tell you. I couldn't tell you a single thing about. William Tell, what era.
>> I know he wrote an overture. That's it. >> There is an overture. >> Yeah. >> for William Tell. Was William Tell a. fictional character? You went to Harvard, smarty pants. You. tell us. Daddy Warbucks. >> [laughter]. >> That wouldn't be work if you're rich. I. meant like an egghead. >> Yeah. >> Einstein. >> There you go. Einstein's better. >> [laughter]. >> I'm off my game today, Conan. >> You are so off your game. You're just a. [laughter] big mess. Um and it's. delighting me. >> for the Knicks? Mr. Boston.
>> Yeah, [laughter] I am. You know why? You. know why? >> okay rooting for the Knicks right now? >> okay rooting for the Knicks because I. think it's a good thing for New York. I. spent a lot of time in New York. They. haven't had a title since '73. I'm very. happy for them. I really am. >> There are Celtics fans listening to you. right now. What a sellout. Piece of. human being. How dare he? That's my. Boston accent, by the way. >> [laughter]. >> What Celtics fan has ever committed. violence? Look it up. I don't think it's. happened. I think I'm on safe [laughter]. ground. >> Boston historically very safe sports.

This would be a great thing for. you, but I was convinced I should do. this. When we record this, I don't know. when this airs, but the the the Knicks. are up two games. Um they're looking for a sweep, possibly. They're headed back to Madison. Square Garden. It's just like a huge. thing. And all these, you know, hardcore. Knicks fans who've been there for years,
like Chalamet's hardcore Knicks fan, Ben. Stiller, Spike Lee has been in every. Knicks game since they created. basketball. >> [laughter]. >> And I thought it'd be really funny if I. dressed up in all this Knicks regalia. and somehow forced my way in and did one. of those things that some celebrities do. where they act like, "I've been a fan. all along." but they're just there for. the gravy. [laughter]. >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. >> And people I love ideas where people. would hate me so much. >> [laughter]. >> But somehow I get a decent ringside, like courtside seat. AND I'M LIKE,
"YEAH, [screaming] YEAH!" AND I KEEP. GOING OVER TO [laughter] CHALAMET AND. trying to high-five him and Stiller. And. I've just got Knicks goggles [laughter]. and a goofy foam hat and we're number. one. People would be so justifiably mad. And then then in in interviews I don't. know who any of THE PLAYERS ARE. I'M NOT EVEN SURE how the game is. played. [laughter]. >> HEY, THEY WERE SHOOTING AGAINST OUR. BASKET IN THE FIRST HALF. WHAT ARE YOU. OVER THERE FOR? >> AND WHEN DO THEY HIT A HOME RUN ALREADY? >> YEAH. >> [laughter]. >> And then I'm like, "GO KNICKS!

I'm Do you must be. fascinated by those things cuz that's. been. the making people.
>> been I've been I haven't told anybody. this. I've been photoshopping. fake injuries of Knicks players and. sending them to my friends who are. die-hard Knicks fans. So, I've been. photoshopping fake TMZ articles like. Brunson tore his ACL this morning with. today's date and texting them to my. friends who are die-hard Knicks fans. And they're like, "I swear to God, Eric. Like, your voodoo whatever you think is. funny right now, it is not funny. You. are not funny." And the more angry they. get, the more I'm I'm cranking out these.
fake photoshopped articles of injured uh. Knicks players right now. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. And I'm I'm losing I'm losing. friends. [laughter]. >> It's so bad. Yeah. But also just to like. I mean, yes, to say things like what. text people early in the morning. Why. was Brunson operating a wheat thresher. in the first place? >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. >> Wait, [laughter] what? I don't know. >> Why would they trade Josh Hart to the. Pistons now? >> [laughter]. >> Between game two and game three of the. finals? They're going to trade him?

Jack Nicholson when he gets electroshock. therapy in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's. Nest, just like like vegetabled. And I. was like, I can't that'll ruin me. But I. was um.

sense next [laughter] time cuz these are. my favorite These are my favorite. episodes. They really are. PEACE OUT, TUPAC. [laughter]. THAT IS. >> GORDAN always says peace out, Tupac. whenever he has anything. [laughter]. >> Yeah. >> You guys want to do a review the. reviewer? Well, I think the answer is. yes in my. >> Okay, great. >> Yeah. Always say yes. >> Just as we planned it. >> Yes. This is where I go to Apple.
Podcasts. I find a review for the. podcast and we can talk about it. We'll. review that terrific. So we have uh. Katie Jordan Wolfe. The title is Ghost of Christmas Hell. Five-star review. If Conan had wanted my. five stars so bad, he could have just. called instead of haunting my dreams. like the Ghost of Christmas Hell. Guys, I'm still reeling. I can't get the. cackling image out of my head from a. nightmare I had last night. I guess the. spirit of Conan won't rest until I rate. the damn podcast and Ghost of Christmas. held me. In my horrific vision, Conan.
was the villain of Terminator 2 Judgment. Day. with, and this might be the most. disturbing visual of the whole thing, a. shaved head. He was like a cackling. Joker {slash} Lex Luthor in a too-tight. suit and staring at me with his beady. little eyes. >> [laughter]. >> Anyway, thank you Conan for this awful. image that will haunt me till the day I. die and I will probably somehow linger. after I'm long dead buried in the minds. of my descendants. I will honor. Christmas in my heart and try to keep it. all the year. Here, take your five.
stars, you ruthless animal, and stop. visiting my dreams. >> Oh my god. >> I said, what is her first name? >> Uh Katie. >> Katie, uh. first of all, great writing. >> Yeah. >> Great writer. Really funny. Um and help. me cuz you know these things. The the. villain in Terminator 2, was that the. policeman who can who has liquid who can. turn into liquid? >> It's the. >> T-1000. >> T-1000. >> Don't act like Don't Don't do that. >> What? Don't do what? >> It's It's a T-1000. >> know. It's the evil T-1000. >> nerd assist. He's helping out.
>> I'm helping out, yeah. Okay. >> It's a slam dunk. There we go. >> How are you? >> Nerd alley-oop. Any hoops. >> [laughter]. >> Awful. What an awful thing. So, I was uh shaved head. I wonder what. a uh Freudian psychologist would say. about, you know, what does it mean? I'm. there cackling. I've got a shaved head. I don't know what that means. >> You kind of are T-1000 in a way. You're. live and and like nimble. You can slip. through jail bars and things like. >> I can I'm First of all, I am primarily.
made of liquid metal. But also um yes, I. can shapeshift. I'm a shapeshifter, a. mind grifter, a high plains drifter. There's not a thing I can't do. There's. no gum I won't chew. >> Oh god. >> I see myself very much in that role. So, I think it's cool and and correct that. Katie identified me that way. >> Don't you want to be. Arnold Schwarzenegger? No? >> No, that's awful. Um. >> [laughter]. >> Cuz then you have to be governor of. California and I think that I think the.
state is ungovernable. So, [laughter]. >> We're going to find out. >> Um there's a there's a big thought that. California should be split up into. smaller states. >> What? >> Yeah. >> No. >> Cuz it's too big. It's too big. No one. seems to be able to run this place. >> the central, and the south? >> Yeah, I think there should be three. different states. >> Oh, so you do. You agree to this? >> I'm just going to go with it because. it's good for the podcast for me to have. a strong opinion. I think it should be. subdivided. I think it should be three.
states. What would you name them? Cala, Forn, and Ia. >> Oh. >> And. >> Yeah, I live in the state of Forn. >> [laughter]. >> Or Ia. What is Ia? >> I'm in Forn, but we're headed down to Ia. for Christmas. I live in Forn, but I vacation in Ia. Yeah. >> [laughter]. >> Um yeah, that's some people believe that. that's what should happen. >> believe it should secede from the union, too. Do you Where do you fall on that? >> Well, because we are the world's fourth. largest economy. Interesting. No, I don't think so. >> Okay.
>> But I will change that opinion if it. gets us more content for the podcast. >> I'll do whatever it takes. >> So, for me to have a strong opinion, do. we secede? I mean, I guess, but then. that raises all of its own problems. We. could be attacked by Utah in the night, and you don't want that. >> Utah? >> Yeah. >> we could take Utah. >> I don't know. Our army I don't know how. our army would do. >> And and also, remember if we're split. into three, then that's a Oh, you're. saying if we were are we three different. countries? >> we secede, we're one.
>> So, what are you for? Us breaking into. three and staying? >> Oh, I'm not getting in. You're not. dragging me into this. >> Well, you are California born and bred, so you have to weigh in on this. So, you're an immigrant, so you. >> What? >> So, >> I'm not an immigrant. You can't vote. >> I can't vote. >> I can't vote. IMMIGRANTS CAN VOTE. >> WHAT? >> [laughter]. >> CONAN, YES we can. Uh first of all, I'm. not an immigrant. >> Yay, [screaming] I GOT HER. I GOT her to. admit. I was birthering you long before Trump.
was birthering Obama. I WAS BIRTHERING. YOUR STATUS NOW. SO, you know what? I got you uncertain. >> I was born here. I was born in. Montebello. >> Well, which is it? You keep changing. your story. >> Stop. I'm saying I'm trying to teach you. that immigrants are allowed to vote and. if and it's okay and I'm not an. immigrant. >> should be and I'm glad we've now changed. it so they can. >> Okay, good. You're so brave. >> that passed, >> So brave. >> I'm for it. I am for it and I'm glad. that finally that's the way we're doing. things. >> [laughter]. >> Well, Katie, I hope we answered your.
question. >> I know. What are you You totally went. off topic. I brought up Arnold. Schwarzenegger you started bringing up. breaking the state into three parts. >> Well, which is it? Do you want it to be. three different states or do you want it. to be one that secedes from the United. States? >> I want to keep us together. I think. we're stronger together, so I'd like to. be our own country. >> Okay. >> I would love to have a passport that's. just like California. >> Yeah, and it says chill, dude. >> Yes. >> In Latin on the top. [laughter]. >> What is chill, dude, in Latin? >> I don't know. I'm not even going to try.
Yeah. >> Dormae. >> [laughter]. >> Grosifus. >> Grosifus. >> Yes. >> Hey, you know what? >> That's you. >> We're going to legitimize [laughter]. your citizenship for that. >> You know what? >> So, now welcome to America. >> Don't do an accent when you say it. >> This is awful. That's a You know what? It's okay to be an immigrant. >> I guess what? I I love immigrants and I'm so glad that.
you are here now. >> [laughter]. >> I'm glad I love that you're here now. >> Okay. >> She used to listen to me on Radio Free. Europe when she was growing up in the. country of Montebello in the [laughter]. country of Montebello nestled in between. Serbia and I got to get out of here, yeah. >> [laughter]. >> Jesus Christ. >> I'm going to succeed from this podcast. >> Yes, yes, we're all Now we're. going to break this podcast up into. three distinct sections. >> This is why people are dreaming of you. or having dreams of you as a villain.
>> I am a villain. I'm villainous. >> If you listen to this podcast, you are a. villain. >> I am an arch villain. >> Yeah. >> I'm the Joker and the Riddler all. combined. >> Yeah, that's true. >> Peace out, Tupac.
