VEGETABLES IN "WET HOT AMERICAN SUMMER."

>> Stephen: JON, YOU'RE A PROLIFIC JOYCE ACTOR.
YOU'RE STEMPING ARCHER ON "ARCHER."
( APPLAUSE ) I THINK WE HAVE A CLIP.
ARCHER IS IN AN ALLEY FOR SOME REASON.
DO YOU KNOW WHY HE'S IN THE ALLEY?
>> HE'S IN THE ALLEY A LOT.
>> Stephen: WE DON'T NEED TON MORE THAN THAT.
>> HE DOES SOME BUSINESS THERE.
>> Stephen: >> GO EASY, ARCHER.
>> I WILL PUNCH YOU RIGHT IN THE GENITALS.
>> IT'S OKAY, LET HIM GO.
UBIG LUMMOX.
WOODHOUSE.

>> OW!
STOFN A-- I MEAN, JUST OW.
>> Stephen: NOW, THIS IS THE EIGHTH SEASON COMING OUT RIGHT
NOW?
>> THIS WILL BE THE EIGHTH, EIGHTH.
>> Stephen: CONGRATULATIONS ON THAT.
>> YEAH, IT'S GOOD.
>> Stephen: MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT FOR THE FIRST FOUR
SEASONS, ARCHER WORKED FOR SOMETHING CALLED THE
INTERNATIONAL SECRET INTELLIGENCE SERVICE.
( LAUGHTER ) OR...
>> ISIS.
>> Stephen: WHY DID YOU CHANGE THE NAME?
>> THERE WAS A LITTLE PROBLEM THAT CAME UP AFTER THEY NAMED IS
ISIS.
THAT WAS UNFORTUNATE.
WE CHANGED IT.
>> Stephen: DID YOU LITERALLY CHANGE IT IN RESPONSE TO THEM?
>> THEY DID, YES.
>> Stephen: THEY DID.
>> ISIS DIDN'T CHANGE IT.
>> Stephen: NO.
DID YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT ASKING?
>> THE GROUP HAS NO AFFILIATION WITH THE SHOW, BUT THEY LOVE IT.
THEY DO LOVE THE SHOW.
LIKE, I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT ISIS ARE BIG FANS AND --
>> Stephen: THAT'S GREAT.
>> IT'S A FINE LINE BECAUSE I-- WE APPRECIATE THE SUPPORT.
( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: YEAH, RIGHT.
YEAH, EXACTLY.

I CAN'T HANG OUT.
( LAUGHTER ).
>> Stephen: NO, NO.
YOU ALSO ARE BOB IN "BOB'S BURGERS."
I AM.
>> ( APPLAUSE ).
>> THANK YOU.
>> Stephen: WE HAVE A CLIP.
WE HEARD ARCHER.
LET'S HEAR BOB.
>> OKAY.
>> YOU COULD BE A LITTLE MORE INDEPENDENT, AND WE COULD NOT
GIVE YOU MONEY SO MUCH.
SO, SO MUCH MONEY.
>> I-- I JUST WANT MR. BUSINESS TO BE HAPPY.
( SIGHS ).
>> I GUESS I SEE YOUR POINT.
YOU CARE MORE ABOUT YOUR CAT THAN YOU DO ABOUT MONEY, AND
THAT'S ACTUALLY NICE.
EVEN THOUGH IT'S REALLY OUR MONEY YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT.
( LAUGHTER ).
>> Stephen: NOW, THAT IS-- THAT'S A HUGE.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) THAT'S QUITE A RANGE YOU HAVE
HERE THERE BETWEEN ARCHER AND BOB.
HOW DO YOU MAKE THE DIFFERENCE?
WHAT'S THE KEY FOR JEW IT'S TOUGH.
IT IS.
THERE'S-- THERE'S VERY, VERY SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS THAT ARE
HARD TO-- YEAH.
>> Stephen: BOB SOUNDS LIKE ARCHER SAD.
( LAUGHTER ) >> BOB IS LIKE THIS, AND ARCHER
IS LIKE THIS.
>> Stephen: I TOTALLY HEARD THE DIFFERENCE.
I TOTALLY HEARD THE DIFFERENCE.
>> IT IS.
AND IT'S TOUGH.
IT'S TOUGH TO DO THAT, BUT I'VE WORKED IT OUT, AND I DO WORK OUT
QUITE A BIT.
( LAUGHTER ).
>> Stephen: THIS THING I HOLD IN MY HAND RIGHT NOW IS ONE--
I'M INCREDIBLY EXCITED ABOUT THIS.
>> THANK YOU.
>> Stephen: I HEARD ABOUT THIS AND I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT.
THIS IS AN ALBUM PUT OUT BY SUBHOP.
IT'S A JAZZ ALBEM, AND IT'S CALLED, "WELL, I SHOULD HAVE."
AND THE SUBTITLE IS.
>> "LEARNED HOW TO PLAY PIANO."
>> Stephen: THAT'S WHAT IT SAYS DOWN HERE.
YOU GOT IN A STUDIO WITH SERIOUS JAZZ MUSICIANS.
>> DI.
>> Stephen: AND DID NOT TELL THEM YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY
THE PIANO AND CUT AN ALBUM.
IS THIS TRUE?
>> I MEAN, THEY KNEW A LITTLE BIT.
( LAUGHTER ).
>> Stephen: THEY LEARNED FAIRLY QUICKLY?
>> THEY KNEW-- THEY KNEW HOW TO PLAY THEIR INSTRUMENTS, AND THEY
KNEW WHERE THE STUDIO WAS AND SO FORTH.
AND THEN IT KIND OF WENT DOWNHILL FROM THERE.
>> Stephen: THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE JAZZ ALBUMS I'VE EVER
HEARD.
>> IT'S-- IT'S-- IT'S A BEAUTIFUL --
>> Stephen: TRULY GROUNDBREAKING.
>> IT REALLY IS.
>> Stephen: I WANT TO IMPRESS UPON EVERYONE HE ACTUALLY DID
THIS.
>> I DID DO IT.
THIS IS NOT FAKE.
>> Stephen: AND I'M SO HONORED THAT YOU'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO
PLAY A LITTLE SELECTION.
>> THE FIRST TRACK.
>> Stephen: THIS ONE IS CALLED, "I CAN'T PLAY PIANO,
PART ONE."
>> YES.
>> Stephen: AND THE BAND IS GOING TO BACK YOU UP.
IF YOU DON'T MIND, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLATE TRUMPET AND I WAS
WONDERING IF I COULD SIT IN.
>> YEAH, LET'S DO IT.
