<br>
Kris nerds out about comment spam<br>
Not all the comments are on<br>
I gotta shut those people down with their Ultra Canadian Pharmacy<br>
What is wrong with you?<br>
No one wants to hear that<br>
It's just creative advertising, Kris<br>
This is getting super interesting<br>
You've dropped a lot of your nerdisms<br>
You aren't weird around girls anymore<br>
Just because people are turned in your general direction<br>
Well, it doesn't mean that they are listening<br>
Betsy breaks down her improv auditions<br>
Betsy is freaking out<br>
I told you how this would go<br>
Did you bring your headshot and resume?<br>
Right, my resume that says CEO of internet startup TheSmithMall on eBay<br>
See, you didn't think that this was real work<br>
No shit, it is competitive<br>
It was valuable<br>
I crossed it off with a china marking pen<br>
It was pretty much like the Wheel of Fortune Chicago auditions<br>
My sister told me not to wear my generic broken Crocs<br>
I looked down and that's what I was wearing with no socks<br>
That is prepared Betsy style<br>
At that moment I didn't feel that together<br>
A guy show up in a Simpsons t-shirt and a trench coat<br>
I see that guy and hit the floor<br>
Nobody move, nobody get hurt<br>
Another chick came in frazzled with watered down eyeliner<br>
A totally Deep Fried Blonde (DFB)<br>
That's their problem not mine<br>
What age range can you play?<br>
I just put 32<br>
You're supposed to put what ages<br>
Every time I fill out an app - White Hen, Hardees, Ben Franklin<br>
I could have used you as a wing man<br>
I have talked about Mike from Second City<br>
You just prefaced it with that<br>
Teaching there, holy shit<br>
The fourteen stages of improv<br>
It's all part of the shtick<br>
Then they go through what we are going to do<br>
I just want to go home and watch Desperate Housewives on dvr<br>
What was your first car?<br>
Chevy<br>
What kind?<br>
Silver<br>
And they all started laughing<br>
I wasn't trying to be funny<br>
Now I gotta do these setups with strangers<br>
It went well<br>
You are in improv boot camp at The Comedy Shrine<br>
Naperville is holding it down<br>
I know Mr B . . . people across the country they have working toasters<br>
The person in the chair is the mall information booth<br>
I am always thinking of disposable goods<br>
Where do they sell RID at the mall?<br>
Betsy gets cut off<br>
The person in front of me is the Deep Fried Blonde<br>
Her teacher didn't come from Second City<br>
She starts a god damn conversation with me<br>
She wants to shine<br>
All she was supposed to say was aisle three<br>
I started behind the door<br>
They said don't do that<br>
"DFB," one word would be fine<br>
Betsy, do someone foreign<br>
You have to get creative<br>
Foreign to Naperville is what I brought<br>
I was way better on the way home<br>
You are obsessing about this<br>
I helped build you up<br>
You are the most competitive person that I know<br>
Betsy, you just have to stick with it<br>
That is the key for you<br>
I would think after 11 years of marriage you would know when to shut up<br>
I am just wondering why to do this<br>
The audition freaked me out<br>
I knew I would be with professionals<br>
While you are doing your audition I took the man to his doctors appointment<br>
The nurse was treating him like he's managing his health care<br>
Sure, like he set it up<br>
He's lost weight and not grown<br>
We've taught him some better eating habits<br>
Here's a fruit party platter<br>
She's leaving and asks him if their is anything else<br>
He's talking non-stop<br>
This is a lot less<br>
"Elliot is there anything else you want to share," goes the nurse<br>
"There is something else," Elliot<br>
He looks right at me and says, "My mom says things to my dad that makes him really angry"<br>
"She says really mean stuff," Elliot<br>
Buddy, it might be a good idea to refrain<br>
On the show, but he doesn't listen<br>
Picking up probably on the hairy situation here in the house<br>
Sure we all have stress and tension<br>
Your mom and I are best friends<br>
One of those moments<br>
Then the kid asks, "Why am I in a foster home?"<br>
Tomorrow, is the 3 YEAR CRONCAST ANNIVERSARY

<br>
Kris nerds out about comment spam<br>
Not all the comments are on<br>
I gotta shut those people down with their Ultra Canadian Pharmacy<br>
What is wrong with you?<br>
No one wants to hear that<br>
It's just creative advertising, Kris<br>
This is getting super interesting<br>
You've dropped a lot of your nerdisms<br>
You aren't weird around girls anymore<br>
Just because people are turned in your general direction<br>
Well, it doesn't mean that they are listening<br>
Betsy breaks down her improv auditions<br>
Betsy is freaking out<br>
I told you how this would go<br>
Did you bring your headshot and resume?<br>
Right, my resume that says CEO of internet startup TheSmithMall on eBay<br>
See, you didn't think that this was real work<br>
No shit, it is competitive<br>
It was valuable<br>
I crossed it off with a china marking pen<br>
It was pretty much like the Wheel of Fortune Chicago auditions<br>
My sister told me not to wear my generic broken Crocs<br>
I looked down and that's what I was wearing with no socks<br>
That is prepared Betsy style<br>
At that moment I didn't feel that together<br>
A guy show up in a Simpsons t-shirt and a trench coat<br>
I see that guy and hit the floor<br>
Nobody move, nobody get hurt<br>
Another chick came in frazzled with watered down eyeliner<br>
A totally Deep Fried Blonde (DFB)<br>
That's their problem not mine<br>
What age range can you play?<br>
I just put 32<br>
You're supposed to put what ages<br>
Every time I fill out an app - White Hen, Hardees, Ben Franklin<br>
I could have used you as a wing man<br>
I have talked about Mike from Second City<br>
You just prefaced it with that<br>
Teaching there, holy shit<br>
The fourteen stages of improv<br>
It's all part of the shtick<br>
Then they go through what we are going to do<br>
I just want to go home and watch Desperate Housewives on dvr<br>
What was your first car?<br>
Chevy<br>
What kind?<br>
Silver<br>
And they all started laughing<br>
I wasn't trying to be funny<br>
Now I gotta do these setups with strangers<br>
It went well<br>
You are in improv boot camp at The Comedy Shrine<br>
Naperville is holding it down<br>
I know Mr B . . . people across the country they have working toasters<br>
The person in the chair is the mall information booth<br>
I am always thinking of disposable goods<br>
Where do they sell RID at the mall?<br>
Betsy gets cut off<br>
The person in front of me is the Deep Fried Blonde<br>
Her teacher didn't come from Second City<br>
She starts a god damn conversation with me<br>
She wants to shine<br>
All she was supposed to say was aisle three<br>
I started behind the door<br>
They said don't do that<br>
"DFB," one word would be fine<br>
Betsy, do someone foreign<br>
You have to get creative<br>
Foreign to Naperville is what I brought<br>
I was way better on the way home<br>
You are obsessing about this<br>
I helped build you up<br>
You are the most competitive person that I know<br>
Betsy, you just have to stick with it<br>
That is the key for you<br>
I would think after 11 years of marriage you would know when to shut up<br>
I am just wondering why to do this<br>
The audition freaked me out<br>
I knew I would be with professionals<br>
While you are doing your audition I took the man to his doctors appointment<br>
The nurse was treating him like he's managing his health care<br>
Sure, like he set it up<br>
He's lost weight and not grown<br>
We've taught him some better eating habits<br>
Here's a fruit party platter<br>
She's leaving and asks him if their is anything else<br>
He's talking non-stop<br>
This is a lot less<br>
"Elliot is there anything else you want to share," goes the nurse<br>
"There is something else," Elliot<br>
He looks right at me and says, "My mom says things to my dad that makes him really angry"<br>
"She says really mean stuff," Elliot<br>
Buddy, it might be a good idea to refrain<br>
On the show, but he doesn't listen<br>
Picking up probably on the hairy situation here in the house<br>
Sure we all have stress and tension<br>
Your mom and I are best friends<br>
One of those moments<br>
Then the kid asks, "Why am I in a foster home?"<br>
Tomorrow, is the 3 YEAR CRONCAST ANNIVERSARY
