Hello It's the recap of MTV Your host, Allie and Brian T and a drunk end of R&E you don't like the song that don't I need. Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the Challenge, Little Man, that's a wrap-up podcast for episode nine. I am Brian Cohn. Here with me, as always, is my call us, Alice. Allie. How are you? I feel like kind of naked right now, Brian, because I like shared some information with you before the podcast. And I'm not able to shake it off right now, you know? Like I'm feeling like a little like I like it normally when we're like, hi, don't talk to me. Let's get on the podcast. Well, I feel like courtsy. We're like actually becoming friends. We're hanging out with each other on the weekends now or we're doing more banter before the podcast. I think we're like finally after six years, I think we're becoming friends. It's like glorious. After six years and one wedding. You went for the person I talked to more than basically anyone in my life to now. We're actually friends.

We took that step.

I don't know what I'd say that.

We'll see as quarantine continues.

But yeah, desperate times, you know?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I had a crisis today while watching the episode.

I mean, you know, when I say crisis, it's going to be a real crisis and not just be exaggerating. Of course not. Well, do you want to know what the crisis is? Ask me a goddamn question, right? I didn't know that required a follow-up. Yes. Please, Ali. What is the crisis? I mean, it didn't require a follow-up. Like, I had a crisis. I thought, and this is what happened. Okay. All right. I guess we're propping. Yes, ad. Yes, ad. What is the crisis? Oh my God. I was just going to say this is improv, Brian. Yes. Well, I just watched the middle ditch and Schwartz Netflix special. Have you watched off of my brain? I watched the first one really liked it. Second and third ones were not that great. The third one was the best one, like, by far. Really? I don't know. I love the wedding one. That was great. The second one was the disaster from the jump. Yeah, because the woman sucked. Yeah. The conversations with the people were hysterical.

I wish they could have done more of that the entire time. They just have one full episode of just all their conversations, trying to get stuff out of people. But yeah, I thought the first one was really good. Well, for anyone who hasn't watched, it's fantastic. Even the second one, which I didn't love, I loved watching. It's like an incredible... even the parts that stinkers are just so, like, it's so cool to see their brains

percolating and stuff like that. But yeah. The unfortunate I think, I mean, everything's unfortunate now, right? It's like, I imagine they filmed these because they performed that show a lot. Like, they filmed it to like drum up interest. I mean, they filmed it because they got a fat check from Netflix, I'm sure. but also like,, I had the desired effect on me of, like, my friend and I were watching it, like, long distance. Like, I'm not quarantining, but we were watching it, like, over the phone. And we were both like, oh, my God, I would buy tickets to the show immediately if we weren't at the end of the world. What's so funny is in the first one, they did a pan to the audience at some point when they were doing like the, the wedding scene. And I spotted two people from my high school sitting there. I like, I took a picture. I said, I literally had not talked to this person since our high school graduation 10 years ago. And I was like, is this you in the crowd of the show?

Did they get back to you?

Yeah, he's like, yeah, that's me.

How are you?

With, you know, we did the typical like two cents catch up and that that's all you go. See, when you're a mean person like me, Brian, you send that, they say, yeah, how are you? And you write back. No, no, I wasn't trying to talk.

I just wanted to confirm this was you.

Yeah.

But I was like, oh, I know that person.

And I know that I know that person.

That's actually wild. no, no, I wasn't trying to talk. I just wanted to confirm this was you. Yeah, but I was like, oh, I know that person.

And I know that I know that person.

That's actually wild. Should we just turn this into a Middle Ditch and Schwartz podcast right now and cut our losses with the challenge? I was going to see, we could just make the whole thing in improv and just go totally off script. But I think that would last, at least for me, about 30 seconds. I mean, we're improvving, baby.
