Summary

This week we are joined by legendary actor and comedian Matt Walsh, who you may know from his work with Upright Citizens Brigade, his role as Mike McLintock on "Veep" or a million other hilarious appearances. Together we discuss the career trajectory of Steven Seagal from actor to cop to guy who gets mocked in Brian Cox's memoir, the time Jonah and his friends threw a block of ice on his car engine, and Matt's experiences using a sock as a gas cap. Vanessa also gives her thoughts on the return of thin eyebrow and together we debate the merits of artificial grape flavoring and our hopes for the "Quantum Leap" reboot. Whether you want to learn about Walsh's cameo "The Conners" or hear three people who've never lived in condos discuss the pros and cons of Homeowner's Associations, you'll find something to laugh about on this hilarious episode of the podcast.

0:00.0	Hi, I'm Vanessa Bayer and this is my brother Jonah.
0:05.7	We're two siblings who love to talk about our childhood and nostalgia and how it shaped us
0:09.4	into the people we are today.
0:10.9	Who are pretty expressive, if I do say so myself.
0:13.7	Welcome to How Did We get Weird. Now, Jonah, you recently visited L.A., and I wanted to talk a little bit about your visit.

0:44.9	But we also had another really fun night where you were staying with me and one night we went
0:50.1	to dinner with our parents. We got ice cream. And then I downloaded the Pluto app so that we could
0:55.2	watch a show that I believe you've seen the entire series. It came out, I think, in 2009. No longer is
1:04.3	on the air. But again, you can find it on the Pluto app, which maybe they'll sponsor us. I feel like
1:09.3	I'm really plugging them. And Jonah, do you want to talk
1:11.7	about what show this was? Yeah, so this is a show. I don't know why we started talking about
1:15.6	Stephen Seagall. And I said, he's one of your childhood heroes. Well, he was someone whose movies
1:20.4	I liked when I was a kid. Yeah, yeah. Tough to call him a hero, especially given his present behavior. Kind of a flawed guy, but he has this show where he was like, I'm not only an actor,
1:31.6	I'm also a cop.
1:32.7	Yeah.
1:33.1	And he was in like, I think it's in like the New Orleans area.
1:37.0	And it's basically, it's called Steven Segal Lawman.
