0:11
You're watching episode 7 of our commentary. Episode 7. The residuals. The residues
0:17
Again, with the sultry voice. I don't know, it's a thing, I'm gonna work with it. See if I, uh..
0:21
That's a great t-shirt. Yes, they're both our extension. That was one in particular. I think Mark even said he was like
0:25
my wife Dawn hates this shirt. Yeah. Devin holding it all together. Dave Hanson. Oh, the Seattle Seahawks shirt. He does love
0:36
those Seahawks. Dave Hanson, ladies and gentlemen, as I refer to him. I'm shouting out the Muppets
0:41
can't really see. There's that Nana from the Muppets thing. Uh-huh. Carly Ann Davis
0:46
Carly Ann Davis. Nana from the Muppets. It all comes together. I love it when a plane comes together
0:53
And here now we have Kathy Searle and Catherine Madone, two of our favorite comedians
0:58
with comedians for Kathy Freakin' Searle they are both hilarious wonderful women
1:04
this was another great improvise where sometimes we land on something when we're improvising
1:08
and then we'll just quickly like alright do that again let's just do that that's half of my direction
1:11
just keep that and then let's not do that and keep that again and this is
1:20
something that happens when I love the way Catherine Madone says the same thing
1:24
the same way because there's such an implied F you in that I said it just before and if you would have heard me
1:30
if you would have been listening then you would have heard it so I'm going to say it again in the exact same way. The fact that I don't is irritating
1:36
I love it But that a thing that happens when clients come in for callbacks The casting place turns into like it like the president is coming It like the beginning of Devil Wears Prada where Meryl Streep is coming in
1:49
And they're like, oh my god! And that line, I want to be them when I grew up, is a line that I overheard at a casting office when clients were there. Really
1:56
I thought, wow. Interesting. I love that you file all this away. I did. I put that one away
2:02
Yeah, the Notes app. Oh, James. I love that face. I love the
2:09
Devin-Vallery friendship. I do too. Yeah. They could so easily be adversaries
2:14
but I love that they're friends. I love that they're not. Should be a spin-off
2:18
Yeah. Just the two of them. Be a buddy. You're talking us out of jobs. I hope you know
2:24
Not all of us. But played by you and I'm like now we're talking
2:28
Boom. They have a sassy secretary who looks like me. So now you're out
2:32
Oh man. No but wait Jillian and oh let's see what I'm out of here
2:36
When we were shooting season two, James said, I love that he did all this character research
2:42
for Devin, and he goes, my super objective is peace. He told you what a super objective is
2:48
I love that, and it's true. Devin's super objective is peace. He just wants Mark to just calm it. Yeah
2:55
The Price is Right drop is very funny, too. Yes. Oh, that was amazing
3:01
Oh my god, she was so sick. I was like, don't touch my mic. This is a very common thing, especially in callbacks when industry people show up
3:10
They will talk right on over you or just eat and not be paying attention on their phones
3:15
You're like, should I start? Am I starting? What do I do Are you watching Should I not be And this is a great Valerie moment you know very endearing where she like trying to be the only one that watching the actor
3:35
Kathy freaking Searle Nothing weird and even Catherine Rudeau just with the hand. Yeah, I get the other
3:49
I should say a... My Lebowski t-shirt, one of many. And Keith is wearing a Support the Troops t-shirt
3:56
and it's Stormtroopers. We're nerds, if you guys haven't picked that up
4:03
So by now we've already established that we're going to do Grocery Ghost. Right. What is Grocery Ghost, Michael
4:09
Grocery Ghost is an idea that Nick and his sometime collaborator, Mary J. Newman, came up with
4:16
and were kind enough to let us create in this fictitious world. Which still needs to happen
4:22
Still needs to happen. It's meta. In the show, it's pretty much a ghost is just haunting these dudes' refrigerator
4:32
And things would appear or disappear, or they would be organized in a certain way
4:39
That's appealing to the eye. As a ghost or wood. I think they get into that
4:44
Yes. They explain. We actually just did, yeah. But they explain, like, benevolent spirit
4:48
I like how you say that. Ah, yes. Oh, okay. That's coming up. Yeah. Spoiler, not really
4:55
This was great. I loved James and Mark, their interaction. You had music for Grocery Ghost, too, didn't you
5:00
You had a little theme song Grocery Ghost da Grocery Ghost da Nice That the whole thing nice it good it jazzy maybe we can get it on the show
5:12
I love Mark Lyle's petulant infantile behavior he's so difficult, I love it
5:19
and this happened to me also a callback where the guy was on video conference
5:25
and it was just all kinds he was trying to give us notes and there were delays
5:29
and like weirdness we didn't do that for this because that would have been more involved
5:35
New York City Ellen doesn't know whether to look at the camera or the computer
5:39
or like that's actually me on the distorted footage because we just needed
5:46
a blurred face so Jillian took some footage of me in our apartment
5:50
and just blurred it up yeah this is a disaster nothing will ever
5:59
be okay again That's a t-shirt That is a t-shirt No because
6:07
No because I love that Mark goes on There's like five minutes
6:13
Of him just saying Awful Awful things To people in the Raw footage
6:17
This is Valerie Not taking Devin's advice Big mistake Big Huge Big huge
6:25
I have to go shopping now Just the rolly chair. Lateral roll
6:33
You guys. Alright. Look at all these talented people who are in this show
6:39
Oh my god. I want to party with them. So wait, you edit it and write it and direct it and are in it
6:46
