This episode of Kona Brian Needs a Friend is sponsored by Hershey's.
Guys, I'm going to ask you a question.
What better way is there to make summer memories than having s'mores with Hershey's milk chocolate?
There's nothing.
Toasted marshmallows, melted Hershey's chocolate, crunchy graham crackers.
The classic taste brings family and friends together for ooey, gooey, good times.
And I'm saying that with a straight face.
Yeah.
And a college diploma.
Ooey, gooey, good times.
Make s'more memories.
See what I did this summer with Hershey's Milk Chocolate.
Summer S'mores with Conan and the Chill Chums.
A six-part series with Conan O'Brien, Sona Movsesian, and Matt Gourley.
Let's get started.
And we're back.
Welcome to episode four of Summer S'mores 2025.
And we've got a big treat here, don't we, Mr. Gourley?
Let's bring in David Hopping.
David Q. Hopping.
Thank you, David.
Hi.
Finally.
Thank you so much, David.
These look, I mean, this is the most, this might be the most elaborate cocktail I've ever seen.
It looks gorgeous.
Mr. Gourlay, I saw you in the kitchen working very hard on these.
Tell me what's going on.
Well, this is something I call the sun damage, okay?
The sun damage.
So it's meant to be basically the color of a sunburn with a little egg white foam on top.
That's like the sunblock with a little extra sunblock here in the lime.
So this is an actual sunblock in the lime.
I can eat it.
It's not.
And then there's some boba beads that are white to represent sunspots, red for freckles and then dark for liver spots or melanoma or whatever.
Oh, man.
That's nice.
A drink that evokes the tropics and melanoma.
Yeah.
And so this is called the Sun Damage, and it looks extraordinary.
And you are very good at this.
I like to try and put you down.
I search for ways to put you down.
But when it comes to making cocktails, you're the maestro.
Yeah.
Thank you.
This is tequila-based.
It's a very California drink, so it's served up with no ice.
I just want to drink.
The more you talk, the longer it takes for me to drink it.
I'm sorry.
I just couldn't hear you explain it anymore.
But it's nice.
I understand.
Very good.
It's so delicious.
I was just making a political point that there's no ice.
Okay.
That's really important.
Really, you know what?
You stood up to the man.
I did.
By making a fancy resort cocktail.
That's really good, girls.
Thanks.
This is excellent.
You're the bartender of my life.
I'm doing the old no booze thing.
Been doing it for quite a while.
And so mine is what?
No, I'm kidding.
That's all right.
I'm kidding.
It's a common response.
No, I'm kidding.
Whenever I go to fraternities, that's how they respond.
What I did have when I was shooting in Austria with Jordan.
We shot something where we're supposed to be getting trashed.
And we're with these other guys.
And you can see it in the Austria episode.
We're at a ski resort.
And I'm with these other guys.
I leave Jordan for them.
And we're all having a really good time.
And then I hung out with those guys.
And they were great.
They were really fun.
A bunch of them were from Austria.
We were having beers.
And I was having, they could tell I was having non-alcoholic beer.
Fine.
And then I went upstairs to get a bite to eat.
And when I came back downstairs, they didn't know I was there.
And one of them said, well, never meet your hero again.
Oh, no.
I'm like, I'm just not having alcohol.
There's nothing wrong with that.
And non-alcoholic beers are pretty decent.
Non-alcoholic beer is excellent.
Spirits, not so much.
No, when someone says try this non-alcoholic tequila, they're basically giving you death.
That's why your cocktail tastes like monkey's piss.
No, mine is good.
Mine is good.
No, I actually don't.
I like drinking.
Oh, we know.
We know.
We have it on tape.
But I actually prefer other ways of drinking.
You like a gummy.
I like getting high, yeah.
You like a gummy.
Would you ever make a drink, Gorley and I'm not saying we would do this for next year, but would you ever make a drink that had gummy in it?
Like THC gummies?
THC gummies try.
I really don't know what I'm doing.
I make it up each time and I fail a lot.
Yesterday I was trying two different drinks and I got so drunk that I couldn't tell which one was good.
So I don't even know if this is good.
We're going to have an intervention for you and then we realize we're just not that interested.
Thanks for helping you.
Appreciate that.
We're not interested.
No, we couldn't find any friends.
We're going to get an intervention for you to try to get you to drink.
I love an intervention where you can't find anybody who cares about him.
We were looking so hard for Gorley.
We did this big blast.
Even my wife.
Your wife was like, oh, no, he pisses himself to sleep every night.
But I can't be, I can't be.
I'm busy.
I'm kind of busy with stuff.
She said that she's in a book group.
She's not in a book club.
She's in a book group.
A what club?
It's a book group, but I think you meant book club, right?
Yeah, let's all laugh at my neurological decay.
Okay.
We're going to listen to this in three years.
I'm wearing a diaper over at Cedars-Sinai, and you guys are chuckling over my neurological decay?
This is quite good.
This is so good.
Thank you.
Cheers.
I love the cream.
Thank you.
Cheers, pal.
That's it.
That's it.
That's it.
We did it.
This is really good.
I like little umbrellas.
Yeah, keep listing things you like.
It's fun.
I like little spoons.
Yep, that's great.
Keep going.
I like little limes that are bowls.
Yep, that's nice.
And I like, you know what?
I enjoy a drinky-poo from time to time.
Yes, you do, and I've been there.
And cheers again for that, by the way.
Yeah, cheers.
And you're, would you say, tamer than you were back in the day?
Much.
When you and I were traveling around we were on tour, we were staying in hotel rooms.
You could rock and roll right.
Well, we would go to the hotel bar with everybody from the tour and I'd be like I'm going to try all these sugary drinks.
Wait, wait, time out.
Time out.
When you said the rusty trombone's really good, I went out and asked people for the rusty trombone.
Got it.
And then had to be on penicillin for like six months.
You got it?
I got that, yeah.
I went up to these guys and I said, hey, someone give me the rusty trombone.
And they said, you really want the rusty trombone?
And I said, I'm here and I'm ready to go.
And then I closed my eyes.
And kept them closed, which is a weird thing to do.
I love that the new guy's laughing.
Yeah, I know.
It makes me funny.
Josh loves it.
Josh is cracking up over there.
He loves it.
Josh, that means when the crew's laughing, it means you're legitimately funny, especially when you're not paying them.
And he is really...
We are not paying you well and you came in angry today and feeling exploited, and now you're laughing.
That means I really scored.
You did it.
I feel like I set you up for it, though, with the rusty trombone.
Nice job, Sona.
Cheers.
Sona, everyone knew that you were a main part of that cocktail, the comedy cocktail, and so you should have been feeling secure.
Yeah, I do.
I do feel secure.
I'll take credit even when I didn't do anything.
It's called showbiz.
Yeah.
Showbiz, baby.
Oh, wow.
You know what's funny?
How quickly you become drunk.
You'll have a sip and be saying things like, yeah, look at the ass on that guy.
Yeah.
That's an apple I'd like to take a bite out of.
And I'm like, I think there's a placebo effect with Sona.
I'm curious to see if there will be with you because you always talk a good game.
But every year we do this, you start slurring your words and saying we're drunk.
But you get drunk, too.
And I think I do not.
It's not my thing.
And I that's liable.
I love these little moles at the bottom.
Oh, yeah.
I got a mole removed.
What's that?
You?
Yeah.
What are you talking about?
I got a mole removed from my back.
I was pointing you because you've gotten probably a lot of moles removed.
We've talked about this before.
I've had hundreds.
I've shown you guys my back.
Yeah, but I've never got a mole removed.
Welcome.
I did.
Thank you.
It's nice to be here.
I had something removed from my back.
It turned out it was an Endeavor agent.
Jesus Christ.
Oh, my God.
And as I took it off, he said, I get 15%.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's very inside baseball.
That's really good stuff.
I'm telling you.
Also, that agency doesn't exist anymore.
Well, it doesn't work.
The joke isn't as good if you say it.
It was a WME endeavor agency.
Conan, I realized I almost made you sick because these moussonas in my drink have egg white foam.
And because yours doesn't have alcohol, I realized I can't put egg white in there.
I don't understand.
Is there chemistry involved?
Yeah, you can get salmonella, but the alcohol kills the toxins in that.
Very good.
But you don't have alcohol.
Maybe there's a tiny bit.
Wish you'd told me sooner.
But then I thought maybe I should.
I ate a box of egg whites I found by the 405 freeway.
Oh.
I just saw them and I quickly ate as much of them as I could.
Then I ran away and my pants fell down.
This is a good story.
You know what I love?
No alcohol in this drink, and I'm sloshed.
Told you.
Sloshed out of my mind, and I love you, and Sona, I love you.
I love you guys.
Oh.
I really love you guys.
That's nice.
Yeah.
I like drunk Conan.
I do.
Non-alcoholic drunk Conan.
Okay.
Can I borrow a little money, drunk Conan?
You bet.
Whatever you want.
I'll give you the check.
You fill it out.
Son will sign it.
Can you buy me a car?
I already did.
No, you didn't, though.
You know you didn't.
I did.
I bought you a car.
It was on television.
Look it up, everybody.
It's a nice car.
That car was so terrible.
It was funny.
Also, you messed up my car, my actual car.
It was messed up before.
No, you ripped out the sunglass holder.
And then Chalemi, who was the field producer.
Those are irreplaceable.
No, he came by and he was trying to fix the things that you messed up.
And I was like, is anyone going to fix the sunglass holder?
And he said, no.
And then...
And then it was just broken.
That's a great line producer right there that knows to do that.
Listen, you're doing a lot of whining, complaining about a man.
Look at you.
You're getting well taken care of in this business.
You are.
I know you've done well.
When I met you, you couldn't read.
And now look at you.
Come on.
It's true.
No.
Yes.
You couldn't read.
Good one.
By the way, that improv class paid off big time.
Welcome to my ice cream shop.
No, you're the ice cream shop.
Yeah, your face is the ice cream.
I should do an improv class.
Yeah.
Right?
You know what would be funny?
I would love to see you doing improv wasted.
Yeah.
Because I bet that would combine.
I know that people have said that before, but you would be particularly entertaining.
Yeah.
I think so.
I think that it enhances.
I have a.
I'm going to say I have a joint in my pocket right now that I'm looking forward to partaking in later.
And I feel like when I do, I'm really I'm on it.
Do you call it when your kids walk in?
Do you say it's mama's medicine?
I actually i do.
I'm like i gotta go take.
I don't actually tell them, i call it, say it's attack.
I was like i'm gonna go uh, do take my medicine.
And then i go to in front of a church that's a block away from me because i know no one's in there.
I live in like a church that no one goes to.
That's a sad, that was the saddest sentence.
You smoking pot in front of a church, nobody goes to, nobody to hide from your children, and presumably someone comes in for like help from their clergyman and there's just a woman in there smoking a joint.
Well no, here's what happens, because it happens at night and they'll go to, they'll go to sleep, the boys go to sleep, tack is home, and i'll be like i gotta go take my medicine and i walk a block over to a church and i sit in front of it and i uh, You don't go inside.
No, I don't go inside.
And I take my medicine.
The devil can't go into a church.
This is where we should have been in the first episode.
Leading with this.
This is why you guys shouldn't hold the alcohol.
That's true.
I, you know, I say go for it.
So then what?
You come home and suddenly you're cheech and chonged.
You're feeling good.
You walk in the door.
Oh, what's going on?
Are you in a different place?
Can the kids tell that Mama's different now?
Yeah.
And then I'll watch.
No, the boys are sleeping.
They're sleeping.
Yeah.
They've never seen me.
You duct tape them to the bed.
I was going to say they've never seen me high.
Right.
Well, I don't know if that's they may have taken.
I may have taken a little people, people, people, people.
You called someone on a 1980s telephone?
Right.
Why am I talking?
Whatever.
It's good stuff.
This is good stuff.
Tell me more about eating the egg whites off the front of my freeway.
A big crate of egg whites fell off a truck.
They were in the sun for, I think, only six hours.
I was driving along the 405.
I saw him.
I bashed open the crate.
And then some rats tried to get in and we fought over the egg whites.
And then I won.
I threw the rats as far as I could.
They hit the 10 freeway.
And I wasn't even at the junction.
Thank you.
Good guy laughing over there.
Not getting paid enough.
And then I just ate as much of those hot egg whites as I could.
Sounds good.
I think they're a couple years old.
I think they're from the Obama administration.
And then I just ran down the street and my pants fell down.
That's the kind of story that people like.
This episode is brought to you by L.L.
Bean.
But the Chipper Mood is sponsored by some time in the sun.
I have to say, when the weather's nice, I like to get on my bike and ride.
I really do.
I love riding my bike.
Yeah.
That's cool.
It's a very small girl's bike.
Oh.
From, yeah.
Does it have a basket in the front?
It has a basket.
And a banana seat?
It has a banana seat.
It's got those little streamers on it.
It's sparkly.
I love it.
With a range of quality outdoor gear from L.L.
Bean, getting outside can be enjoyable for everyone.
Just because you're outside doesn't mean you can't be organized.
The L.L.
Bean Campsite Organizer has three shelves for keeping everything you need like picnic gear, grilling tools or snacks.
You can keep your files in there for when you're camping and you want to go over your fire.
I only do my taxes when I go camping.
I've seen you.
And for everything you want to keep ice cold, the L.L.
Bean Base Camp Cooler is the most durable and effective they've ever made.
This extra spacious cooler is designed to keep food and drinks cold for up to 196 hours.
Man, you can crack a cold one days after you've been in the hottest weather.
Thank you, L.L.
Bean.
Yeah.
Really, great stuff.
I mean, excellent.
Just the coolers, the organizers, these chairs we're sitting in are lovely.

Outside together since 1912.
Well, Hershey's finally decided to sponsor Summer S'mores.
You know, this has been the long con.
We invented Summer S'mores to lure Hershey's.
This is all I've ever wanted.
This is like the movie The Sting.
It's this really long con.
It's taken years to play out.
We don't disagree on s'mores.
The whole thing was staged just to get some attention.
And now old man Hershey has found himself in our...
Snare.
Yeah.
Well, anyway, they decided to sponsor Summer S'mores, but they left me out.
Matt and Sona got all this amazing merch and swag.
I got nothing because I'm anti-smore.
Well, now I understand why.
My past comments on s'mores divided a nation.
A nation which is rarely divided.
But Hershey's, I want you to know my beef is not with you.
I love chocolate.
I love your new Hershey caramel bar, I believe.
That a s'more could be just chocolate and graham cracker, no marshmallow needed.
I had the new Hershey's caramel.
It was great.
It was terrific.
Sona, what do you think?
How is the s'more with caramel?
Tell me what you think.
It's so good.
I mean honestly.
If anybody tries to give me a s'more without Hershey's chocolate, I just smack it out of their hand.
Yes.
And the caramel just upped the game big time.
I saw your face light up.
I feel like tasting that was my purpose in life.
Try Hershey's Milk Chocolate with Caramel today.
S'more more.
Remember last year we played that game, Chubby Bunny, where we stuffed marshmallows in our face?
Yeah.
So it was suggested again that we play another game, and we wait for the alcohol usually to do this.
Yep.
You guys want to try again?
I'm lubed up.
Okay.
You have to put your cocktails down, though.
Okay.
Okay, this is a game... Yeah.
Yeah.
It's called mind meld.
And the way it works is Sona and I will start and, on the count of three, we'll both clap our hands and say any word that comes to our mind.
Okay.
And then you got to turn to Conan and on the count of three, you guys clap and you both say a word.
But, based on what we just said, you have to try to say the same word and then you won't get it right away.
And then you turn to me.
What are you already looking off into the distance for?
I'm not sure I understand, but I will try to understand.
Okay.
So like you and I will try it.
And based on what we say, you might start to develop like there's a theme or something.
You can find a common word that links those two.
That's what you want to find.
Okay.
And then you will turn to me.
We'll count to three and try to do it.
And we'll keep going in a circle until two people say the same word.
Oh, that's fun.
Okay, I'm fascinated, but... Who do you think is going to say the same word?
I think me and Cones.
You think?
Yeah.
Thanks.
No, it's because we've worked together for so long that sometimes Yeah, but he's going to destroy this thing.
I know.
Okay.
I don't... I honestly...
We don't talk about these things beforehand because no effort goes into these shows.
There's really no professionalism.
All you have to do is listen to the two words that are said before your turn and try to think of a word that unites those two or is common between those two.
Okay.
Or try to predict where someone is heading.
I'll do what I can.
Okay, you ready?
I'm ready.
I'm so ready.
One, two, three, truck.
Chicken.
Okay, now go.
Okay.
Chicken and truck, and you guys just don't think.
The whole thing is not to think.
Oh, so we say it on the clap.
Yeah, one, two, three.
Cutlet.
What did you say?
I said taco.
Cutlet and taco.
One, two, three.
Burrito.
Burrito.
No, you wait.
I just wanted it to stop.
I just wanted it to stop.
No, I didn't remember that I had to go so quickly.
I didn't think I was going so quickly.
We'll start again.
Okay.
But I said cutlet because I thought of a chicken being crushed under a truck wheel and becoming a cutlet.
That's fine.
That's fine.
I didn't.
I thought about getting a taco from a truck with chicken.
Yeah, but I think whatever game we play, you're going to yell taco.
Yeah, I am.
I love tacos.
Eisenhower, taco.
He said burrito.
Okay.
One, two, three.
Chocolate.
Quesadilla.
Okay.
One, two, three.
Cookie.
Uh-uh.
What did you do?
She just went, uh-uh.
What did you do?
You went, uh-uh.
I couldn't think of a word.
Okay, so start with me again.
Let's try it again.
You can't think.
One, two, three.
Beach.
I didn't hear what you said.
Beach and tree.
One, two, three.
Waves.
What did you say?
Waves.
One, two, three.
Sand.
What'd you say?
Sing.
Sing and sand.
You and me.
One, two, three.
South Pacific.
Castle.
What the fuck?
What the hell?
It's a musical that takes place on the beach.
Yeah, in 1951.
Oh my god.
South Pacific and Castle, ready?
One, two, three.
Moat!
Yes!
Yes, I knew it!
Sona and I are twins, not separated at birth, separated maybe before birth.
Some kind of crazy operation.
That was impressive.
I mean, we are mind-melded.
You know that, Sona.
That was really cool.
I knew it.
I said it.
I said it.
I know.
I'm agreeing with you.
Yes.
Why do you act like this is a communist show trial and your life is in danger?
You make so much fun of me, but you think like me.
Yes.
So what does that say about you?
I hate myself.
You are like me.
I hate you.
That's good.
That's a simple formula.
Oh, that was cool.
That was cool.
That was great.
That's a fun game.
Yeah, play it with your friends.
That's great.
I love that game.
Now Sona, I saw you upstairs playing some kind of 70s trivia game, but all the questions were crazily easy.
They were very easy.
I mean, like insanely easy.
They were.
Oh, there they are.
So I was going through all the stuff that I had been, that people had donated to me after my house burned down in January.
And it was a lot of like clothes and stuff.
And, you know, really, really sweet.
That's really nice that people did that.
And then somebody, I don't know who it was, gave me a 70s trivia game.
And it's all about like pop culture in the 70s.
And I'm like, if I know two guys who would like this game, it's cones and girls.
But they're easy.
Well, fine.
I'm sure there are some that aren't.
You know what?
I'm going to do television because I think we did most of the movies and and girls got like all of them.
Which British punk band in 1976 generated huge controversy after swearing repeatedly on the air?
Sex Pistols.
Yeah, that's that is the punk band in 76.
Now, you go a year or two later, you got your Clash, but, I mean, it's Sex Pistols.
Go ahead.
Never mind the bollocks.
I didn't want to play with you.
On the Sonny and Cher show, what was the title of the song released in 1965?
I got you, babe.
It's the only song they have is I Got You, Babe.
Which 1970s musical?
I didn't realize we were in a race to do this.
Is this a race?
I don't know.
You just seem to want to explain every question.
Yeah, I want to ruin.
You know the way when a bicycle's going along and the little girl riding it's having a lot of fun.
If you ride alongside them and put a stick in the spokes, a little girl goes flying.
Which 1970s musical sitcom has a theme tune called Come On Get Happy, used from its Come on get happy.
No.
Oh, Monkeys.
No.
Do you want to stop for a second?
Come on.
You have an answer.
Come on, get happy.
I'm not trying to race you.
I'm trying to get you to know it, but I know that.
That's a lie.
That is true.
On which ship featured in the title of a 1970s TV show would you find Lieutenant Starbuck?
Oh.
Battlestar Galactica.
Did you know that one?
I did, but I know who played Starbuck.
Who?
The guy who later was on the A-team.
That's right.
Okay.
Dirk Benedict.
So I guess he had no name.
Oh, there we go.
Benedict Dirk, if you're looking up in the phone book.
We're back to the game.
Who's a bigger dork?
Welcome to dorkdom.
In the 1978 animated series The New Fantastic Four.
The Thing.
That doesn't even relate to a TV show.
It's a television show.
The Fantastic Four was a television show?
A cartoon, yeah.
I was just thinking of the comic book.
When did it become a TV show?
In the 70s.
I'm sober.
Tragically sober.
So you guys won't know that one.
I know.
I didn't realize we were racing.
I don't like these racing games.
Which crime-fighting show is home to the characters of Huggy Bear and Captain Harold, Dobie and Hutch?
Okay.
And who played Huggy Bear?
Snoop Dogg.
Antonio Fargus.
I don't know that.
Oh, okay.
He did in the movie.
In the movie, but in a TV show played by Antonio Fargus.
Yeah.
I didn't realize this was a race.
Oh, played by John Forsythe.
What was the name of the... Charlie's Angels.
Okay.
Peter Falk provided his own wardrobe for Columbo's iconic outfit in the show of the same name.
What shabby item was he famous for wearing?
His trench coat.
And the sound people used to get mad at him because it wasn't a soft jacket.
Okay, yeah, great.
Let's get some extra details from both of you for literally each answer.
Why are we arguing?
We're so much alike in this aspect that...
We mind meld and you two dork meld?
The Vulcan dork meld is not often talked about in Star Trek lore.
Do you guys want to keep going?
Two nerds go up and touch their glasses.
When the tape holding the glasses together touches, they dork meld.
I am your nerd, and I always will be your nerd.
This one's a British show.
In Fawlty Towers.
What kind of salad is an American guest famously unable to get the hotel kitchen to make?
Wait, what are you talking about?
I didn't even hear the question because you and I were still doing the last bit.
In Fawlty Towers.
What kind of salad is an American guest famously unable to get the hotel kitchen to make?
That's wrong.
I just said it.
I don't know what they're talking about.
I don't know that one.
Waldorf salad.
Welcome to the dork mouth.
You said that.
You can't say Waldorf salad in the same tone as in your face.
Waldorf salad.
Mic drop.
Suck it.
Insulata mista, bitch.
Caprese.
Caprese, motherfucker.
Caprese, motherfucker.
With a little balsamic.
Peels out in a car, laughing.
The balsamic brothers just got me again.
Go ahead.
Of which TV show features the lyrics, make a hawk a dove, stop a war with love?
You guys won't know this.
I'm going to just say M.A.S.H.
Making our dreams come true.
Making our dreams come true.
Okay, now you have to sing in.
And we'll do it our way.
Yes, our way.
Sometimes I'm sad inside and I do it our way.
That's just me thinking.
Sorry.
What is that?
That's Laverne and Shirley.
Oh, yeah.
I even knew that one.
But Hawk of Dove is not that, right?
No, but it says the show is making our dreams come true.
I don't know what show that is.
Oh, I don't know that show either.
Oh, so we get sidetracked there.
You guys get sidetracked with every single one of these answers.
All right, let's do a couple more and then get out.
In 1970s TV, who is the fictional character of Diana Prince better known as?
Wonder Woman.
Wonder Woman.
Did I get it?
You got it.
Yeah, you did.
A couple of months late.
Which long-running show features characters that include Ruby Anderson, Joe Kelly, Leela Quartermain and Gail Baldwin.
What the hell?
Oh, you guys won't know this one.
Unless your mom kept you home all day.
General Hospital.
Your bragging is so funny on this.
Unless your mother kept you home all day because you couldn't focus on your reading.
You weren't allowed at school.
Some of us were kept home all day because the medications to get us to focus didn't exist yet.
So take that.
Oh, my God.
All right.
I think we're going to wrap this up.
But, Sona, you're a terrific game show host.
I think you're a very funny game show host.
And I think that's what you should be doing with your life.
Please have that be what you do with your life.
Oh, okay.
But, no, I think you'd be very funny.
I actually think I would crush it as a game show host.
I think you would.
But I just want to read questions.
And you know the end of every game show would be, I want to thank the contestants.
We'll see you next time.
And you'd wander out of the studio.
We'd follow you.
You'd go to an empty church.
Smoke a Doobie Joe.
Yo, Doobie Dude.
You know, just alone as the camera panned up and it had the producers' names come by.
Yeah, and they'd have this drink too.
All right, that's it for today.
And this has been a really fun episode.
And I think we learned what was missing in the other ones.
Alcohol.
Next week, you two are really going to go head-to-head on a game.
And it's going to be quite an event.
And a real game, not some mind game.
But a game that incorporates strategy, but also coordination, musculature.
You're right.
I hope long legs and a short torso.
You're right.
I shouldn't have played that game, because what we're going to do next week is so respectful athletic and you really, really have to be at the top of your game to play cornhole.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I didn't think you were going to blow the surprise.
I just...
Usually you say, stick around and find out what happens.
And you just said, hey, you should come see this movie.
Orson Welles is in it.
And by the way, Rosebud's the sled.
You don't think they would have been a little disappointed if we built it up and it was cornhole?
I love disappointing an audience.
I built a career on it.
It's the same kind of spoiler.
32 years.
32 years of disappointment.
Hey, I want to thank everyone that tuned in and watched.
Well, just let you know that you listen to it.
I know you love it, but we love making it.
So love always wins.
And I'm, again, sober.
That was a non-alcoholic cocktail.
I think we better bring Dr. Arroyo.
Dr. Arroyo, you got to help me get out of here because I can't do it.
So, ladies and gentlemen, Dr. Arroyo.
It's right there.
You said this tastes like monkey piss, but it doesn't.
Amazing.
The only one of us here to sample it.
All right, we'll see you next time.
