0:13.0

The interi improvised with over 30 different improvisers and this is part two. I hope you enjoy Mike Delaney.

0:23.0

I'm a grandpa improvs here and who are these other fellas? I'm Patrick Claire. I'm Dave Siegel. Dave Siegel. Patrick who? Claire. Claire. Okay. I see you down here. We jumped you up. Okay, man. Do you know these guys Mike? I do. You do? What can you tell me about them? They're fine upstanding individuals. They're ethical. They're ethical men. How do you know that? Just from an experiment. You know when you teach improv you get to see people's souls.

0:53.0

Really? You really get to see them test their moral compass? A little bit. Well, no, their morals are shaky. I said ethics. Their difference ethics are in the art within the within an art form. Like you might be a painter with great ethics, but be a morally low person. Okay. Now I get it. Yeah. So no, I have I will not vouch for their morals at all. Some willing to lie to like my landlord, but I have artistic integrity. Yeah. Have you lied to your landlord?

1:23.0

Sure. About what? I lied about my neighbors. What'd you say? I said that their dog bark more than it does because you wanted to make a point. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it does. It does bark, but I exaggerated. I went more than. Did you do the dog bark? No, I didn't have a voicemail and simulated. It's all over email. It's all over the room. I guess that's a minor, minor moral.

1:53.6

Dent. Yeah. What would happen if they put the dog to sleep? Would you feel bad?

2:00.2

If I got like a letter from like a shelter, you should have said yes, right away. Yes. Yes. You're already a bad person. Yes. What about you?

2:08.4

Have I lied to my landlord? No, what moral morals have you broken lately? You want to fast lately? I'm a pretty straight narrow person, actually. I'm wrecking my brain. No. Yeah.

2:21.8

I drank a little too much last night, but you did not really within excess. I moved this morning, so I was supposed to have an early night, and I pushed it by like 20 minutes, but that's about a square. A trespass, as you can have, I think. Yeah, you're pretty square. Yeah.

2:37.2

If that's breaking moral, Steve, let's get this started. So let's get a suggestion from Twitter. I usually read about three of these Duncan Grant says camping.

2:48.2

A brin says towers and Brian Sebi says orangutan. I always say tank for some reason. It's a rank good tan. How do you say that?

3:05.1

Is it really two words? Yeah, if you go like the zoo and it's the scientific name, they separate it with those spaces. Oh, very interesting. You're really smart.

3:17.6

Did you guys know that? I had no idea that it was one word. Yeah, me too. Oh, I thought it was everyone says orangutan, but it's orangutan. Yeah, I see that. I definitely say tank.

3:29.8

Any stories on camping towers or well, camping word. There's been some there's been some talk of Bonaroo over the day, and I went to one Bonaroo in 2003. We did everything wrong.

3:42.1

The camping part of it, where were three of us, and there was an eagle scout in the group. And so it was just sort of a given that, yeah, the eagle scout handles the tent as we're divvying up responsibilities, like it's just a just a given.

3:58.6

So we did Bonaroo with no tent, which if you're not familiar with Bonaroo, it's a massive outdoor festival, and you need a tent. It's necessary.

4:11.0

So we were like refugees at this festival. We were at the mercy of other camp goers. And this is a hippie music festival. So you'd think that would be fine. And it wasn't.

4:24.1

It was it was hard to get provisions. This guy, he was an eagle scout. We just assumed Jason's got it covered. So we didn't do anything. You know, I handled food, my friend, and all the drugs.

4:33.5

And we didn't we didn't take care of any of the provision stuff. No tent. All of the living stuff was from my eagle scout friend. So the first night, we slept under our car because it rained.

4:46.7

It rains. So we slept under a 2003 Camry sedan.

4:52.9

And the camp next to us, of course, was, you know, top of the line like RV with everything going in a generator and all that.

5:00.1
