[percussion opening music]

Nostalgia is overrated because people

tend to remember things like that

their own way as opposed to reality, so.

And we're actually not a nostalgia band.

We can tell because people our age

don't come to our shows.

No, we get older.

The audience stays the same age.

Sure.

[percussion sting]

Oh, they're underrated. I love a long walk.

Underrated.

[Together] Yeah.

I'm big on walking.

Especially with a dog.

Although walking with headphones on is way overrated.

Well that's just dangerous.

It's horrible.

Unless you're walking in place.

That, if you're walking out in the city,

or anywhere actually with headphones on,

you are an idiot.

[all laugh]

[percussion sting]

Well, I'd say that those are underrated.

Yeah, I mean, I'm in favor of them.

I never have enough time for a bubble bath

but yeah, I'm pro bubble bath so.

I'm way too much of a germaphobe for that.

[others laugh]

Laying in the tub, ugh.

Alright well said.

You found the dividing line. So, overrated for you?

Nice hot Petri dish.

Filled with who knows what.

[Mark laughs]

Overrated.

Oh but he would be so cute in a bubble bath.

Yeah, well there's always that.

Little tuft of bubbles.

[percussion sting]

I'm not a fan of people sticking

guns in other people's faces,

I'm not a fan of it under the best of circumstances.

[laughs]

But I heard his parole was nixed because

they caught him masturbating?

Nah, they let him go.

Is that? He's out.

Oh he's out?

He's out. Holy smo, oh wow.

[percussion sting]

Overrated.

That's right we want our weed illegal and tax-free.

Free, yeah.

Why would you wanna do something now that it's legal?

[all laugh]

Where's the fun in that?

[percussion sting]

Costco is overrated.

Is it overrated? Oh I like Costco.

I mean it might be good for you guys but.

They have kids.

Oh no I'm down for,

I'm down with Kirkland.

That's my favorite brand of peanut butter,

That's my favorite brand of underwear.

But don't you have to buy, like,

a eight gallon tub of it?

And I'll eat it.

[laughs] I'll eat it!

I'll eat it,

and I'll eat it at a really good price.

[percussion sting]

Grilling like, grilling grilling?

Grilling, yeah. Grilling oh yeah,

grilling is totally underrated.

Yeah, underrated.

I'd grill every day if I could,

and I do because I live in Los Angeles

where it doesn't ever have bad weather.

What about in your Aberdeen days,

was there Aberdeen grilling? No, no no no.

All we were doing was plotting murders,

that's it.

There's no rain-bequing.

Rain-bequing, that's what I want.

[group talking over each other]

Snow-beque is fine rain-beque.

Makes you wanna park a bullet in your head.

Breakfast on the grill is great.

[percussion sting]

[Together] Astrology.

Astrology has always been weird to me because

how do they explain cesareans?

Yeah, good point!

Yeah that's a--

I want my kid to be a Pisces quickly!

Yeah, yeah. Now he's a Pisces!

Well actually we had a planned c-section my wife did,

and it was all based on astrology.

See?

We wanted a Taurus child.

See?

Kidding. It's horseshit.

Can you do that?

Can you plan your c-section

based on planets? Yes you can.

Yes you can.

[Buzz] That's amazing.

Can you explain that to your OB?

It's all bullshit. No, you don't understand!

Mercury is gonna be in retrograde on that day!

Far as I know.

Really can't have a child then!

Lord knows what can happen!

Oh yeah that's awesome.

He'll be a fundamental Christian.

[all laugh]

So is that underrated on that one then?

No no it would be overrated astrology but.

It's bullshit!

[percussion sting]

Wow.

That's overrated.

Yeah that's over, I guess that's

highly rated 'cause everyone's doing it right?

Yeah. Yeah, that's overrated.
