Hey, everybody. Welcome to our first November corrections of
the year. Very excited. I said Joseph Gibbles. It's Joseph
Gibbles. So apologies to him and his family. His fam his
family and him. Him and his want to get it right. Casey's
also, you know, grammar Nazi. Oh I bet you're not both.
I said Star Wars, it's Star Wars. I thought both worked but
I guess I will defer to the nerds. I thought in that galaxy
that the Ts and the Ps were just sort of interchangeable. I
said Richard Attenborough. I was told it's pronounced
written Richard Attenborough. I've made it too much. Richard
Attenborough. And in New England where I grew up it's we
say Richard Attenborough. We say it derisively about people
who have weird pets. Kids got four lizards and a boa
constrictor. Richard Attenborough.
My sister is friends with his
My sister's friends with his cousin. Been to his house. I
guess he freezes mice. Fridge full of mice. Weirdo. Richard
Attenborough. Speaking of New England, I've we've been
talking about, I don't want to get into it, this feud. I
referred to my home state of New Hampshire as an upside down
Vermont and the reality is Vermont's an upside down New
Hampshire. New Hampshire joined the union like almost three
years before Vermont. Like we we did that shape first.
Probably waited. Wanted to make sure the union had like an
organic section in their grocery store. You're not
better than us.
We talked about Joe Manchin's houseboat and we made the point
that it's a yacht. It's not really a houseboat. She took a
picture of it. It's not how you picture a houseboat and we also
said, houseboats don't have cursive on the back, the name
of the boat. Multiple people said, that's not cursive.
That's script. Cursive, the letters have to connect and
that was just fancy script and they said, but we don't blame
you because you don't teach cursive anymore in schools. And
it's true. They barely I mean this is the problem with
schools now. And when they do teach kids cursives it it's
only to write mean things about white people.
Cursive race training.
Can we show up that photo of Lowe's that I criticized? I
gave our I said to our you know we've had trouble with our
graphics department. I'm like look at this. You have you know
aisle sixty1 and sixty-two on one side and then aisle
seventeen on the other. Obviously that's not how it
looks. Bunch of people wrote up and said look I once I work at
Lowe's. That's how it looks. Lot of people said I go to
Lowe's. That's how it looks. And I know what you're thinking
that I'm some sort of I don't know. Liberal elite who doesn't
go to home stores.
Talking about how everybody you know was celebrating basically
the the news took a week off reporting anything except for
the fact that Colin Jost passed me as the update anchored host
of the most episodes of weekend update and I said well you're
all throwing crowns at his feet and someone said it's casting
crowns that's in the Bible it's casting crowns I will admit I'm
not a a Bible reader two places you would not find me grown up
sure in Lowe's. Um so I looked it up because I wanted to see
if it was casting crowns or throwing crowns. I looked it up
and it was a revelation. It was in Revelation.
Um somebody said you know he didn't actually pass you Colin
Jost because if you think about it some of your weekend updates
you were a solo anchor whereas all of his have been either
with Cecily or Chay so he should really only get half
points for those whereas a lot of yours were full points so if
you count it that way your way ahead and I was very excited by
this theory that I was buying into it and then I looked at
who wrote it and the name was Mike Pillow fan. I was like it
was Mike Lindell. And I just bought in and I realized now
like that's what Trump does. If he's telling you something you
want to hear sounds like a pretty sharp guy. We had a we
showed a photo of Mike Lindell in Joker makeup and said why so
serious
the Joker makeup was Joaquin Phoenix Joker not Heath Ledger
Joker and people you know comic book fans are upset because
each Joker has sort of their own iconic phrase Heath Ledger
was why so serious Jack Nicholson was way to get a load
of me Jared Letto was you cut all my scenes
I So, we talked about Gonzo and his genitals. Here's how it
came up. There was a it was based on the gift of the Magi
and there was a gift of the Magi story in the 1978 Sesame
Street Christmas special I said originally that it was a
Muppets Christmas special and then I had to clarify that that
actually never aired because in a lot of the shots you could
see Gonzo
and then someone said you know he doesn't first of all why
would you even assume Gonzo has one Gonzo's gender is never
established and that's very fair but we did we do we do
have a picture of it now this is obviously not for everyone
You know, if you don't want to see a picture of Gonzo's penis,
Just look away now. Let's take a look.
So it kind of makes sense. Okay. I talked about eating
Necko wafers for Halloween and a lot of people said Necko
wafers they don't make those anymore they're discontinued to
that I would just say you don't think there's some weirdos in
New York who bought a bunch of Necko wafers a decade ago and
have just been slowly handing them out you don't think people
are giving away old candy bars in New York City you don't
think if you knock on Rudy Giuliani's door he's not
going to give you a Reggie Bar
I said that if you Babaduke which is a a horror movie an
Australian horror movie. I also said it sounds like the slying
to Babaduke is to get super drunk in your pants. And then
later in that closer look I said someone would Babaduke
their pants. To which a person said you already said
Babaduking mean your pants. So to Babaduke your pants would be
to your pants your pants. Sorry. Oh this isn't really
correction. This is just something that's like coming
down the pipe that we're a little worried about. We've
been talking a lot. Uh by the time you see this the Jets will
have played on Thursday night football. And we're very
worried that the Jets might be good now. And if the Jets are
good now we we're going to shut it down. They have a new
quarterback through for 400 yards last week against the
Bengals Mike White who I mean with that and White Lotus what
a year
you showed a picture of Baby Hitler can we show that baby
Hitler picture and then we had a conversation a lot of people
said hey Hitler's eyes weren't blue and then someone else said
actually they were blue and people just think they're brown
because mostly you saw black and white pictures of Hitler
and so people assumed they were brown but he did have blue eyes
and there was a lot of back and forth and then someone kind of
snuck in with a correct Sometimes there's a very like
sometimes the jackals get so specific that they miss a real
easy one and it was like days later that someone said a baby
can't grow a mustache.
Can't argue with it. We talked about how during the Trump era
our jokes jokes wrote themselves and then I also
talked about how we had elves that Shoemaker was very mean to
and people said what is it do the jokes write themselves or
were the jokes written by what happened was someone said who
wrote your jokes and I went them selves
That's what happened.
It's funny to think we you know we talked about the fact that
and I think while we got to that point it's like you know
the elves and a shoemaker the shoemaker are very very famous
fable and it it is funny to me that like Shoemaker at some
point you had someone in your life who was a shoemaker who
I'm sure like was like one size fits all And you're like how
does that even work? You're like nine. Look. She make her
half Italian, half German. Which is why everyday at work I
feel like I'm fighting World War two.
Um we had a photo of rats, a rat with a six pack. Multiple
people told me based on rat's muscles, they only have four
packs. Richard Attenborough. Uh I sang the lyrics to a 10, 000
maniac song. I said these are the days to remember. I got it
wrong. It's these are days to remember. And then bae said
more like these are lyrics to forget. And I had to take him
aside and say, you have to stop pitching on corrections. I
don't think, I don't think you see what we're trying to do
here.
We talked about John Steinbeck and I did a a bit about him and
his editor and then a bunch of people said his editor had a
name and there were a few suggestions people had at his
editor and and so then I started digging into it which
happens a lot. One of the joys of corrections is you find out
things he didn't know and if you can look at it, Steinbeck
articles and this is a true story This happened. I'm not
allowed to say, this is a true story that happened. People
don't like that. Oh, I almost forgot one thing about the
elves. I talked about how Shoemaker threw the elves out
the window and people said 30 Rock the Windows don't open.
You he couldn't throw an elve out the window and it's true
they used to open all the way but now they just open a little
bit but Shoemaker, it's enough for Shoemaker to really
muscle an elf out.
Steinbeck. It turns out that 1930 using a pen name. John
Steinbeck, Nobel winner, Pulitzer winner, wrote a
werewolf murder mystery called Murder at Full Moon that the
Steinbeck Estate will not publish because he did not
publish it in his there's a Steinbeck imagine this poor man
who just wanted to write fun things. Wrote a werewolf murder
mystery. Brought it to his editor and he said it was like
people don't like stuff like this. Give me something on the
dust bowl.
Write me something about a dumb guy who doesn't know his own
strength.
I got something called travels with Charlie. That sounds like
it stinks.
I only read Travels with Charlie in school. Base, did
you read Travels with Charlie? I think it stinks. When I was a
kid, I didn't like it. I maybe I'll give it another chance. I
won't. I feel bad. If you are a jackal and you feel like I
should give travels with Charlie another try but then if
you're also like, you know what else is good? A separate piece
then no. Okay. Mugs we had a couple of mugs last week and it
was it was our Halloween week and I wanted to see if you guys
knew what they were so this one right here so that that's a
jack-o-lantern and then a bunch of people said yeah but it
shouldn't be black there should be like it should be like
yellow from the candle and to that I'd only say I made it
black for a reason because jackals have no light inside
them and this this is the deep cut right here I'm really proud
of this so this is a this is a jackal bring this is a jackal
intern
No. And Tara from graphics made that and a lot of people said
is this our is our close up over there? Let me get a close
up of this. So, a lot of people said there's a problem. That's
not that's not a jackal that's a hyena. And so I went down to
graphics. I went down to Tara and Tara's very good at her job
but everybody who works here will attest mean.
Mean person and
I said a lot of the jackals are saying that you did not
represent them on that mug that that is a hyena and I said do
you have anything to say to them and she said did you show
them the other side of the mug? And I said I didn't even
realize there was anything on the other side of the mug. So
here you go. This is from Tara and Graphics everybody.
See me next week.
