00:00:15.144 --> 00:00:19.921
I'm Don Finnelli. This is Mutterfly. We got three pairs of improvisers.
00:00:19.921 --> 00:00:23.641
They're all improvising a short scene. They're starting with the exact same
00:00:23.641 --> 00:00:27.091
two lines that I am messaging them right before we start recording.
00:00:27.091 --> 00:00:29.431
There's no pre-planning. They don't know each other's lines.
00:00:29.431 --> 00:00:32.237
They're hearing them for the first time when you're hearing them.
00:00:32.585 --> 00:00:40.009
And I am back from the Jersey Shore. I had approximately 600 Coors frozen custards
00:00:40.375 --> 00:00:42.146
when I was down there, if you know, you know.
00:00:42.791 --> 00:00:47.551
Now I'm back in North Jersey with an endless to-do list as we continue to try
00:00:47.551 --> 00:00:50.145
and slowly but surely get into this
00:00:50.604 --> 00:00:56.617
new house of ours. But I got to perform at the UCB Theater in New York for the first time, never been.
00:00:56.931 --> 00:01:00.693
It was really great to be back on stage with the old stepfathers.
00:01:01.145 --> 00:01:03.938
But hey, this is the penultimate episode of season one.
00:01:04.931 --> 00:01:08.941
I am taking a break. I've talked about it before. I basically have negative
00:01:08.941 --> 00:01:11.831
time available these days. I'm starting grad school.
00:01:12.411 --> 00:01:15.582
I'm TAing in undergrad class. I got two kids.
00:01:15.896 --> 00:01:19.569
I'm traveling around doing workshops and whatnot.
00:01:19.883 --> 00:01:23.941
So we're putting a pause on this little project for a bit until I have some
00:01:23.941 --> 00:01:28.191
more time to record again, but that doesn't mean you can't rate and review the pod.
00:01:28.291 --> 00:01:33.271
Uh, I would absolutely love it if you do. Uh, so thanks in advance.

Not that many, but could you actually... Let's talk about that later, Ruby.

Could you just help me out with the sofa while I try to get through the doorway? Yeah.
00:02:59.972 --> 00:03:04.392

Yeah well how How many pushups can you do?
00:03:49.794 --> 00:03:53.641
You know what? I don't even know the last time I did a push-up, so I don't know.
00:03:54.101 --> 00:03:58.681
That's fine. You know, for some people, that's fine. Yeah. Do you want me to
00:03:58.681 --> 00:04:01.619
just carry the couch in? No. Why don't you take a step back?
00:04:03.021 --> 00:04:07.451
I would rather help. I mean, it's my – I would rather – if you really want to
00:04:07.451 --> 00:04:10.396
try, I don't think it's going to work. Yeah. But – All right.
00:04:10.825 --> 00:04:11.319
Here we go.
00:04:15.618 --> 00:04:16.489
Oh, my God.
00:04:19.287 --> 00:04:19.941
God.
00:04:20.281 --> 00:04:24.311
What's this couch made of? Is this a real couch?
00:04:24.311 --> 00:04:26.712
I think it's filled with cotton. It's like filled with cotton.
00:04:27.269 --> 00:04:28.801
No, this is different.
00:04:29.225 --> 00:04:34.181
I mean, it's got a little bit of, I think, plywood. It's like light particle board type stuff.
00:04:34.221 --> 00:04:35.791
That's what it is.
00:04:36.581 --> 00:04:37.863
That's what it is?
00:04:39.163 --> 00:04:42.698
It's light. No, this is that new kind with the heavy wood.
00:04:43.721 --> 00:04:44.481
The new wood?
00:04:45.067 --> 00:04:46.187
How many pull-ups can you do?
00:04:47.377 --> 00:04:48.641
I have no idea man
00:04:49.141 --> 00:04:50.286
I know how many i did today
00:04:51.627 --> 00:04:59.651
No i did four full-ups that's not a lot i think if i had guessed that like that
Load full transcript
00:04:59.651 --> 00:05:04.051
would have been me guessing what i think i could do and i don't
00:05:04.051 --> 00:05:07.962
Do you don't even know but you don't that's the thing you didn't
00:05:08.386 --> 00:05:09.061
Yeah you know
00:05:09.061 --> 00:05:13.017
And i don't you're basically what you're saying is in your wildest imagination
00:05:13.458 --> 00:05:17.281
you would hope to do four and that's how many I did today already.
00:05:17.721 --> 00:05:21.161
That's a good way to think about it, I guess. Why don't you just get the end
00:05:21.161 --> 00:05:23.947
of the couch and I'll try getting the other end. Maybe that'll work.
00:05:24.052 --> 00:05:25.439
Okay, here we go. I'll be honest.
00:05:25.852 --> 00:05:28.353
I did get it all the way up the stairs by myself.
00:05:29.137 --> 00:05:30.501
It's just that I'm having trouble getting it.
00:05:30.501 --> 00:05:33.270
Well, that was leverage. That was just the leverage.
00:05:34.762 --> 00:05:36.881
What? How do you think I got it up the stairs?
00:05:37.561 --> 00:05:43.001
You had a fulcrum. It's basically an inclined ramp. That's just simple tools.
00:05:43.361 --> 00:05:49.141
I didn't drag it. All right. I lifted it. I wasn't ready. Okay.
00:05:50.826 --> 00:05:53.508
You're going to pop a blood vessel to me. Let's put it down.
00:05:53.508 --> 00:05:55.728
Let's put it down. Let's put it down. Let's put it down. Yeah.
00:05:55.728 --> 00:06:00.508
What is this? What is this? Is this a couch? Is this actually a couch?
00:06:00.926 --> 00:06:02.468
Yeah, yeah. It's just a couch.
00:06:02.468 --> 00:06:09.398
Is this like one of those things where it's like a quarter with a nail attached
00:06:09.398 --> 00:06:13.518
to one side and you nail it into a piece of wood so people try to pick up the
00:06:13.518 --> 00:06:14.568
quarter and it's actually nailed into the wood?
00:06:14.568 --> 00:06:17.608
I've never heard of this thing. You can't say that like that's one of those things.
00:06:17.928 --> 00:06:23.488
It's a trick quarter. It's a common prank quarter. You've never heard of a prank quarter?
00:06:24.928 --> 00:06:28.628
Not like that. It's a quarter that's nailed into wood, and that's a prank?
00:06:28.628 --> 00:06:34.948
Yes. It's like, look it up. Read a fucking book, man. Whoa, dude. I know you're against.
00:06:34.948 --> 00:06:38.199
First of all, yeah. You know I can't read right now, all right?
00:06:38.396 --> 00:06:41.388
You know I can't. Oh, jeez. Something's going on. Yeah.
00:06:42.208 --> 00:06:45.188
You've been saying that your eyes have been tired for eight years.
00:06:45.472 --> 00:06:46.678
They are tired, man.
00:06:46.678 --> 00:06:47.469
Every time
00:06:49.693 --> 00:06:52.839
somebody asks you to read something, you say you can't read right now.
00:06:53.147 --> 00:06:58.248
Yeah, I can't right now. Because I can't do screens. And so books are basically
00:06:58.248 --> 00:06:59.708
like a paper screen to me.
00:07:00.128 --> 00:07:01.030
That's
not true.
00:07:01.767 --> 00:07:02.448
Well, whatever.
00:07:02.448 --> 00:07:04.850
It's completely different. That's reflective light.
00:07:05.285 --> 00:07:06.388
That is not a screen.
00:07:06.908 --> 00:07:09.144
On three, let's try this time, okay?
00:07:09.701 --> 00:07:11.611
One, two.
00:07:11.901 --> 00:07:14.078
Whoa, let's stop. Let's stop.
00:07:14.252 --> 00:07:14.601
Huh?
00:07:14.827 --> 00:07:19.658
Huh? that scared the shit out of me sorry what was i was
00:07:19.658 --> 00:07:24.618
Just trying to get i was trying to get uh my blood oxygenated and i started
00:07:24.618 --> 00:07:30.466
feeling lightheaded okay all right how many how many miles can you run
00:07:31.987 --> 00:07:36.909
I do know that i mean how many can i run versus how many do i typically run
00:07:37.879 --> 00:07:41.468
How many could you run if i said to to run start running now
00:07:41.468 --> 00:07:47.628
How many miles just as far as i could I could probably run I mean not that much
00:07:47.628 --> 00:07:50.737
I'd say like maybe I could do 7 miles
00:07:51.753 --> 00:07:54.406
Alright well today I ran around the block twice
00:07:57.714 --> 00:07:58.384
How about that?
00:07:59.647 --> 00:08:05.313
Good job. Yeah, good job, buddy. Uh, let's try to finish this,
00:08:05.653 --> 00:08:10.524
getting this couch in the door. It's a little bit in, and then maybe we'll talk
00:08:10.524 --> 00:08:11.784
more about some of that stuff.
00:08:12.631 --> 00:08:15.254
Let's just try getting the couch out of the door. Hey, buddy.
00:08:15.254 --> 00:08:20.224
If you think you're so strong, you're so big and you're so strong,
00:08:20.224 --> 00:08:23.924
you're so good at reading, why don't you just, uh,
00:08:26.272 --> 00:08:31.067
Go fuck yourself. I don't like your attitude. Every time I do something new,
00:08:31.276 --> 00:08:35.850
every time I pick a new hobby, like right now it's protein and lifting.
00:08:36.221 --> 00:08:37.777
Every time I pick a new hobby,
00:08:38.033 --> 00:08:40.912
You're never impressed with me.
00:08:41.336 --> 00:08:47.319
No, I'm not. Because I'm constantly confused as to where you're sourcing your
00:08:47.319 --> 00:08:49.631
information on how to get into these hobbies.
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:54.079
Remember when you got really into board games? And first of all,
00:08:54.079 --> 00:08:55.221
the games were always wet.
00:08:55.575 --> 00:08:59.429
like why were they always wet where are you getting them wet because they were
00:08:59.429 --> 00:09:04.409
wet when they got here is the other thing and then they disintegrate half the
00:09:04.409 --> 00:09:09.227
time because they're not working and also the only board game you got into was Sorry
00:09:10.679 --> 00:09:12.759
which sucks Sorry sucks
00:09:15.282 --> 00:09:19.839
When you get the cardboard wet it makes it softer and that makes it safe there's
00:09:19.839 --> 00:09:23.345
a lot of sharp edges on the cardboard
00:09:24.204 --> 00:09:31.042
and I'm scared and
I soak a man in a bathtub for a couple hours and the rules are the same
00:09:32.979 --> 00:09:37.231
you just roll it out and afterwards you sweep it all up
00:09:37.927 --> 00:09:40.969
That's the craziest part too because of how soft it gets you're able to roll
00:09:40.969 --> 00:09:47.509
it up and roll it out like a sorry board should be able to do that I'm surprised that it works oh big
00:09:47.509 --> 00:09:50.049
Surprise that you don't like the way I play board
00:09:50.049 --> 00:09:56.364
Games I'm real surprised I'm not being fair I'll be honest I'm not being fair to you
00:09:57.165 --> 00:09:57.809
You know I.
00:09:57.809 --> 00:10:00.247
Quit my job to come help you move this couch
00:10:00.567 --> 00:10:03.839
Why did you fucking do that I really wish you hadn't
00:10:04.344 --> 00:10:07.929
I really wish you asked me if I could you asked me if I could help you move
00:10:07.929 --> 00:10:10.057
the couch and I was in the middle of a shift
00:10:11.026 --> 00:10:14.779
Then you could have said no you could have said no I can't help you you're my friend
00:10:17.650 --> 00:10:22.711
I would never quit my job for you. You quit at the peak of the lunch rush?
00:10:23.205 --> 00:10:29.950
Yeah, my phone is blowing up. Everybody wants to kill me. We were already understaffed.
00:10:30.711 --> 00:10:37.735
Yeah, that sounds so bad. You know, I might just see if I can return the couch.
00:10:42.282 --> 00:10:43.832

00:12:41.693 --> 00:12:48.450
Sarah Yeah okay I had this day in my mind where
00:12:49.764 --> 00:12:56.724
we would move all of our stuff in and each thing we would remember then moving
00:12:56.724 --> 00:13:03.018
it in and it would be our memory and it would just give our space like that really special.
00:13:04.261 --> 00:13:08.928
Okay, Mike, you know I'm not sentimental like that. You know I don't give a fuck.
00:13:09.090 --> 00:13:10.048
I know. Right?
00:13:11.284 --> 00:13:16.284
You knew that coming into the relationship. I did I wasn't going to care I don't
00:13:16.284 --> 00:13:21.094
do anniversaries I don't do birthdays I don't do Christmas You knew that No,
00:13:21.094 --> 00:13:23.014
You're pretty much Personal
00:13:23.014 --> 00:13:30.054
Best You know that all I care about is muscles I want a muscle meat pad Yeah,
00:13:30.054 --> 00:13:34.737
Okay, listen Alright, hold on Just give me a second Let me catch my breath
00:13:37.935 --> 00:13:38.458
One,
00:13:40.751 --> 00:13:46.988
two, I just was carrying a couch, three, so like I hope we're on a curve here.
00:13:47.238 --> 00:13:48.744
Keep going, keep going.
00:13:48.913 --> 00:13:49.516
Four.
00:13:50.747 --> 00:13:55.372
You know what, hold on, I'm going to sit on you and then you can lift my weight as well.
00:13:55.622 --> 00:13:55.918
Yeah.
00:14:01.113 --> 00:14:01.978
Five, six, seven.
00:14:03.383 --> 00:14:06.338
Oh, God. Seven. Hold on, hold on.
00:14:06.798 --> 00:14:13.908
Stop. You're sweating so much. It's so pathetic. It's disgusting.
00:14:17.542 --> 00:14:22.598
Yeah, listen, I did know that getting into this and
00:14:24.598 --> 00:14:29.558
and then things were going well. And like I was, you know, and then I had a
00:14:29.558 --> 00:14:34.718
wrist injury and I couldn't do strength for a little while. And I have to say,
00:14:34.718 --> 00:14:39.358
our relationship has really spiraled since then.
00:14:40.378 --> 00:14:44.337
But I was like, let's move in together, right? Because that fixes things.
00:14:46.259 --> 00:14:50.208
So I do have a question, though. And it's just occurred to me,
00:14:50.208 --> 00:14:55.673
I've never asked you, how many push-ups can you do?
00:14:57.638 --> 00:14:59.046
How many push-ups can I do?
00:14:59.336 --> 00:14:59.830
Yeah.
00:15:00.532 --> 00:15:05.896
You go around with strong opinions on how many push-ups other people can do.
00:15:08.287 --> 00:15:09.283
How many can you do?
00:15:09.283 --> 00:15:09.999
Okay, well,
00:15:12.327 --> 00:15:17.685
to be honest, I've never tried. I've never even tried one. I don't know. I have no idea.
00:15:18.492 --> 00:15:20.640
You don't even know what a push-up feels like?
00:15:21.748 --> 00:15:26.073
I don't even know what a push-up feels like, but maybe you're right.
00:15:26.073 --> 00:15:30.467
I guess I expect everyone around me to be able to do at least 100 push-ups at once.
00:15:30.868 --> 00:15:34.496
And here I am, not even doing one.
00:15:35.239 --> 00:15:44.673
I've been so scared of you and like I have to admit that's kind of like I have
00:15:44.673 --> 00:15:49.373
a like it's all a tangle the emotions that I feel
00:15:54.493 --> 00:15:59.160
Do you know that I didn't go to my grandma's funeral because she couldn't do a hundred pushups
00:15:59.810 --> 00:16:00.933
I do know do you know
00:16:00.933 --> 00:16:04.164
Now that I'm just realizing how fucked up that is
00:16:05.343 --> 00:16:07.133
You you sent me the woman
00:16:07.133 --> 00:16:09.656
Raised me yeah
00:16:10.045 --> 00:16:17.163
You sent me in your in your place and you told me to do a hundred push-ups in
00:16:17.163 --> 00:16:23.332
front of everybody and say that's what grandma never like did
00:16:25.196 --> 00:16:31.807
yeah and i did that because i love you and a lot of your family won't talk to me now
00:16:33.294 --> 00:16:39.795
No No Hey Mike Yes By the way
00:16:42.513 --> 00:16:47.192
There's something in the bathroom trash can that you might want to see.
00:16:49.415 --> 00:16:49.830
Okay.
00:16:49.830 --> 00:16:52.019
It's a pregnancy test.
00:16:53.238 --> 00:16:54.320
It's in the trash can?
00:16:56.501 --> 00:17:00.860
Yeah, I wasn't going to bring it up because you could only do 20 push-ups.
00:17:01.481 --> 00:17:02.540
You didn't know I could.
00:17:02.540 --> 00:17:09.990
But now I'm sort of, yeah, but now I'm just sort of like, maybe I'm ready to
00:17:09.990 --> 00:17:15.350
change and be a better person, be more accepting, and I don't know.
00:17:18.260 --> 00:17:18.880
Sarah, are we...
00:17:19.020 --> 00:17:22.150
Will you marry me? Oh, sorry. No, never mind. No, you're right.
00:17:22.150 --> 00:17:25.540
I shouldn't have said that. Never mind. Just forget that. Just pretend I didn't say that.
00:17:29.120 --> 00:17:33.280
Thanks, Katie. Thanks, Johnny. Last up, you heard these legends back in episode
00:17:33.280 --> 00:17:38.230
19. It's Shannon O'Neill and Billy Merritt, two OGs of the Upright Citizens
00:17:38.230 --> 00:17:41.740
Brigade Theater, both on a team called The Stepfathers in New York.
00:17:41.740 --> 00:17:43.388
Billy was one of the founders of that.
00:17:43.742 --> 00:17:49.557
Shannon came on a few years after that. I
came on a few years after that. And now I'm back, baby.
00:17:50.420 --> 00:17:53.950
Both phenomenal improv teachers as well. I want to give them a shout out for
00:17:53.950 --> 00:17:57.127
that. But Spoh's acting in shows like Broad City, High Maintenance,
00:17:57.382 --> 00:17:59.367
the other two, Alternatino.
00:17:59.611 --> 00:18:03.837
She was recurring on Neon Joe, Werewolf Hunter, and The Chris Gethard Show.
00:18:04.162 --> 00:18:09.991
She's still rocking out The Stepfathers and ASCAT in UCB and New York.
00:18:10.205 --> 00:18:15.116
Billy Merritt, he's rocked out the UCB stage for almost two decades on both coasts.
00:18:15.412 --> 00:18:19.081
You've seen him on The Conners, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Parks and Rec,
00:18:19.418 --> 00:18:25.107
Reno 911, Key and Peel, Weeds, Workaholics, Happy Ending Search Party, the list goes on.
00:18:25.426 --> 00:18:30.120

Network, so go check that out.
00:18:31.748 --> 00:18:35.960
All right, it's our final mutter with Shannon O'Neill and Billy Merritt.
00:18:40.850 --> 00:18:45.668
Can you hold this end of the sofa while I try to get it through the doorway, please?
00:18:49.800 --> 00:18:50.148
Yeah.
00:18:53.684 --> 00:18:55.158
How many push-ups can you do?
00:18:56.470 --> 00:19:01.160
Oh, well, obviously not as many as I'd like.
00:19:01.543 --> 00:19:06.646
Having difficulty with the sofa, probably, I don't know. I haven't tried doing a push-up in a while.
00:19:07.087 --> 00:19:10.030
Oh, because this couch is pretty heavy, man. So I'm just like,
00:19:10.739 --> 00:19:15.167
I'm just kind of trying to guess what you're like, you know,
00:19:15.167 --> 00:19:18.355
like what your overall like football like score is, you know?
00:19:18.802 --> 00:19:19.951
My football score.
00:19:20.957 --> 00:19:23.428
Yeah, you know your weightlifting football score?
00:19:23.550 --> 00:19:28.177
Sure. Yeah, I know it. I know it. The couch is heavy because it's filled with nickels.
00:19:29.135 --> 00:19:30.760
Oh, sure.
00:19:31.172 --> 00:19:34.069
I've got about 6,000 nickels in the bottom of the couch.
00:19:34.551 --> 00:19:41.360
Okay. Okay. Okay, you're doing that fountain diving again?
00:19:41.842 --> 00:19:45.794
Fountain diving, yes, yes, yes. Back in the old days.
00:19:47.677 --> 00:19:52.452
I never really did any football work in and out, but I did a lot of pond diving.
00:19:53.903 --> 00:19:56.986
Oh, there you go. There you go. Thank you. All right.
00:19:57.334 --> 00:19:58.077
Thank you.
00:19:58.251 --> 00:20:00.184
Oh, that is good.
00:20:01.026 --> 00:20:03.441
Oh, wow. Hey. Okay.
00:20:03.876 --> 00:20:04.642
Thank you, neighbor.
00:20:05.377 --> 00:20:10.737
Yeah. No, yeah, I've said, yeah, we know so little about each other,
00:20:10.737 --> 00:20:13.286
but, you know, I've seen you.
00:20:14.562 --> 00:20:16.268
I've seen you. You know, I go
00:20:16.268 --> 00:20:21.342
for dawn bike rides. So I've seen you by the fountain by the courthouse.
00:20:22.114 --> 00:20:23.543
Oh, yes.
00:20:23.757 --> 00:20:23.888
Yeah.
00:20:25.505 --> 00:20:29.908
Yeah, you're going to find a lot of coinage in the morning, oddly enough.
00:20:30.851 --> 00:20:35.598
Apparently, if you research it, most people put money in the fountain late at
00:20:35.598 --> 00:20:36.726
night when no one's looking.
00:20:37.260 --> 00:20:41.438
Oh, yeah. Because they feel their wishes will be honored and not stolen.
00:20:41.438 --> 00:20:48.090
No, I've heard that. Yeah, I've heard that. the uh i dated a i dated a witch,
00:20:49.344 --> 00:20:53.837
like four years ago really she told me a lot about some things that you know
00:20:53.970 --> 00:20:57.668

Norda. I'll swipe on Norda and Norda and I dated.
00:21:15.443 --> 00:21:16.501
Norda's in her name?
00:21:17.046 --> 00:21:18.263
Norda the Witch.
00:21:18.263 --> 00:21:23.003
Norda the Witch. Was she witch forward or is it just something that she also did?
00:21:24.447 --> 00:21:25.482
She's witch forward.
00:21:25.725 --> 00:21:27.153
Witch forward? Yeah.
00:21:27.153 --> 00:21:32.348
She's witch forward and then she's pottery backwards.
00:21:32.819 --> 00:21:39.433
Pottery backwards? Does that mean she's not good at pottery or she does pottery?
00:21:39.433 --> 00:21:43.115
No, yeah, she does pottery, but which is her main source of income.
00:21:43.440 --> 00:21:46.174
And pottery backwards is like, it's like her hobby.
00:21:46.464 --> 00:21:47.260
Sure, sure.
00:21:47.631 --> 00:21:49.756
Yeah, no, but she told me about the coin thing.
00:21:50.667 --> 00:21:51.103
Oh, really?
00:21:51.683 --> 00:21:54.545
Yeah, and then she told me about the, it's why I bike at dawn.
00:21:54.992 --> 00:21:57.830
Because she said, bike at dawn, the ghosts are gone.
00:21:58.440 --> 00:22:01.877
Yeah, dawn is the safest time to be alive outside.
00:22:02.783 --> 00:22:07.483
I think a lot of the mystic energies are switching over to daytime at night.
00:22:07.483 --> 00:22:11.363
You know, those Looney Tune commercials are commercials. I think they're called
00:22:11.363 --> 00:22:17.943
cartoons where they morning Fred morning Frank and they're what are they?
00:22:18.463 --> 00:22:19.518
Punching the time clock.
00:22:20.743 --> 00:22:23.163
Oh, yeah, yeah, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.
00:22:23.622 --> 00:22:27.603
So as all the demons and dementors and the goblins and the ghouls are all just
00:22:27.603 --> 00:22:31.987
crossing at that moment in time, that's the time to get out there and really enjoy the world.
00:22:32.515 --> 00:22:38.076
Hey, sorry to sorry to interrupt. um i'm i'm in 24e oh hey
00:22:39.039 --> 00:22:43.085

00:22:48.518 --> 00:22:52.023
and i kind of woke up because i had to pee this morning i kind of just kind
00:22:52.023 --> 00:22:57.400

How do you know it was your nickel?
00:23:06.473 --> 00:23:08.743
Do you come on it? You're the guy that comes on coins, right?
00:23:10.056 --> 00:23:12.376
Oh, 24B, right? Is that, was that?
00:23:12.696 --> 00:23:13.146
24E.
00:23:14.055 --> 00:23:16.028
24E.
00:23:16.237 --> 00:23:22.796
24E for E for Ejaculate. Yeah. Well, yes. Yeah, I'm the guy that comes on coins. Okay. Whatever.
00:23:22.796 --> 00:23:26.176
Tell me something. Tell me something. What was your wish? Because maybe I didn't
00:23:26.176 --> 00:23:29.246
steal it. Maybe I'm a wish giver. What was your wish?
00:23:29.577 --> 00:23:34.662
That I could stop coming on coins. I can't help it. I really want to stop. I cannot help it.
00:23:35.608 --> 00:23:41.906
Every time I see a coin, I get hard as a rock and I want to come all over it.
00:23:41.906 --> 00:23:46.004
Okay? There's just something about it that I was like, it's legal tender and
00:23:46.149 --> 00:23:47.577
I wanted to face it immediately.
00:23:48.336 --> 00:23:51.548
Yeah. And I wished, please, for the love of God, to stop it.
00:23:52.413 --> 00:23:56.116
And I came on that nickel. So if you have a come down nickel, that's mine.
00:23:57.724 --> 00:24:00.826
Well, I mean, let's take care of the problem, not the nickel.
00:24:01.946 --> 00:24:03.518
Let's find out a way to fix this.
00:24:04.666 --> 00:24:08.936
Were you under any sort of spells? You were talking about your witch friend.
00:24:08.936 --> 00:24:10.565
Does she know anything about this?
00:24:11.830 --> 00:24:15.886
Oh, yeah. She's a, yeah. I mean, we're just buddy, like F buddies now.

Oh, I didn't mean to imply. Okay, sure.
00:24:19.876 --> 00:24:22.570
I've tried witches. Who's the witch? Who's your witch?
00:24:23.866 --> 00:24:24.299

and immediately came on it and immediately got arrested for indecent exposure
00:24:47.861 --> 00:24:50.090

What the hell my mom kept me from masturbating too much when I was.
00:25:22.986 --> 00:25:26.106
In school. What the hell? This is a huge problem of mine. It seems like everyone
00:25:26.106 --> 00:25:27.758
knows a solution. I've prayed for this.
00:25:28.466 --> 00:25:31.932
I've wished upon a come down nickel and I've talked to a witch.
00:25:32.083 --> 00:25:35.006
No one has mentioned the melon candle situation.
00:25:35.006 --> 00:25:36.382
Can I offer you another solution?
00:25:36.887 --> 00:25:39.029
Sure. I'll take any solutions.
00:25:39.436 --> 00:25:40.283
Apple wallet.
00:25:40.754 --> 00:25:41.212
Yeah.
00:25:42.697 --> 00:25:43.876
Apple wallet
00:25:44.247 --> 00:25:47.981
Yeah yeah then you don't need to have any cash no coins on you oh oh.
00:25:48.601 --> 00:25:53.581
Yeah you meant like come on and a digital entity now it makes sense now that
00:25:53.581 --> 00:25:56.490
i don't have any physical legal tender in my hands
00:25:56.768 --> 00:26:00.801
Yes because the problem is the first problem is coins right because masturbation.
00:26:00.801 --> 00:26:04.216
Self-pleasure no is coins legal tender is that just paper
00:26:05.075 --> 00:26:06.353
That's no it's legal tender.
00:26:06.532 --> 00:26:08.843
Legal tender applies to coins as well right
00:26:09.063 --> 00:26:11.581
Well not pennies anymore they discontinue pennies So,
00:26:12.941 --> 00:26:16.601
I mean, I discontinued pennies at this point. So like pennies. Whoa.
00:26:17.161 --> 00:26:22.821
Yeah. I mean, I can't. There's two pennies were my biggest challenge.
00:26:22.821 --> 00:26:25.341
They're so tiny. They're copper, you know,
00:26:25.341 --> 00:26:27.343
Like they're dimes tinier.
00:26:29.621 --> 00:26:30.154
Are they
00:26:31.026 --> 00:26:32.196
Yes they're tinier.
00:26:32.324 --> 00:26:34.832
Yeah but they're like they're silvery you know they're not as
00:26:35.630 --> 00:26:37.119
Easy to spot or
00:26:37.751 --> 00:26:42.430
No i guess they're easier to spot because the light too light a little too light

00:26:59.430 --> 00:27:03.550
spectrum of you know how light and dark that they are and i think i'm a sick
00:27:04.050 --> 00:27:07.530
