Okay, so just to preface this, I'm not crazy.
This is the cast of Let's Be Cops.
Although, I didn't have the budget to go out and buy a police uniform, so I just found this in my closet.
That was just in your closet?
Yes. I like to dress up. I mean, we just, we were supposed to interview you guys at Comic Con, but and I would've, I went full costume for that. So I figured I better keep in the spirit of things.
We appreciate it.
Do you guys have any costumes in your closet?
Uh, in short, yes.
But I want the long answer. We all want the, what do you wear? What do you have?
Nights of the Round Table. I've got a full suit of armor. I got a Peter Pan outfit. I got a Wendy outfit.
Wait, wait, what?
It's just a night gown, you know?
How many night gowns do you have now, honestly? All jokes aside. How many night gowns do you have in your closet right now?
Three.
Do you enjoy a night gown? Is there, like, is there a story behind it?
It's roomy. There's air.
So everything good about Damon that's real is that he wears a an Nugro, a Nugro when we work late. He goes in his trailer and on Let's Be Cops he did and he shows up it's like really nice lacy night gown. It can assault more than it can. And he's like, I need to relax.
That costume is a suit.
Right. That's something that wear is kinda really weird. Do you?
Well, that actually leads me into the next question. The smooth is kinda like a fish out of water story. Yeah. Do you guys have any stories about when you felt like a fish out of water? Any good Hollywood stories?
I remember my grandma I bought my grandma a fish for a present. And she told me, she said, "Never buy a woman a fish." She told me to take it back. It's It's disrespectful. This is a literal fish out of water story. She's like, "Take this fish, pick it back."
How old are you?
I'm like 10.
Also, why is that disrespectful to buy a lady a fish? I guess like back in the day, maybe.
You also had another story you're just dying about your grandma and a night gown.
I did because Marlon was in here. Can I set it up?
Yeah.
I Marlon was in here and he taught me how to do a blue angel. Oh, oh, so, you know, I was being funny hanging with the guys, my brother, my my uncle is actually my age. And uh we were trying to and letting a fart on fire. Yeah. So, with my legs up accordingly, uh like the
Stop moving out of the way so I can do it. You're lifting your legs. I'm telling you, you're moving out of the way so you can see me do that on camera. I'm not doing that on camera. I would have done it, but because you want to I screwed up. I screwed up.
So I fart, I fart on fire. It flew out like, like Dalsim, like Yoga, like just flamed out. I was just like, oh, this is awesome. And then it back drafted, like it went right back in my butt hole. And what happened after that? My grandma. A bunch. Like, like she just slathered up. She was like, that's a fire. Yeah, so I was like, I was I was burnt. She laid me on on my stomach over her lap, put like a huge amount. And I was just like walking like
This wasn't No, she wasn't.
Um, have you guys ever talked your way out of a traffic ticket? What is your style?
Little cleavage. Okay. Hello, officer. I was going half past. He's like, "Whoa, whoa." "Oh, I'm so sorry." Please keep driving. Slow down there. Grandpa.
Yeah. Uh, no, actually what uh I get I get out of a lot of tickets looking like my father, like the cops mistake me for him. And uh they'll like pull me over and then I'll give him my license. They're like, "Oh, no. What? Homer the Clown?" Oh, man. You look good, man. You look really good. You look really good, man. Man, I love your stuff. Get out of here, man.
So your license doesn't say Junior?
No, it does say Junior, but they just assume, you know, I'm a Junior. It did all the boys
You are. You're Junior? Or yes. Is there a third?
Uh, no. That's it.
Cool. Could be cooking in those khakis right now. That's right. Ow, dude. What? Cooking in the
Rob Benedict, the third.
You said that's right before you put
I did, I didn't do the math. That's right. Oh, no. That's right, my man.
But let's be honest, there's there's one There's always one cooking. There should be more than one.
Well, millions. A lot of people do one. I do one. One big one. One big. One big tadpole jumps out. Because it literally comes out I go. It comes out. It goes, "Oh!" "Oh!" It goes, "Where's he? Where's he?" He's It's unbelievable. It's really awful. It's also, honestly, and it's painful. And it looks like Rob.
This is fantastic. I feel like I can just sit back and enjoy and enjoy the ride. This is fantastic.
Okay, so I have um I wanted to put you guys on the spot a little bit because I think this is such a fantastic film. I do smell a sequel.
Great. I hope you're right.
But you can't be cops again. So, I thought I'd give you some scenarios and maybe you guys could act out or give me the face, the movie poster face for the sequel. You ready? You into it?
Yes.
Let's try this. All right. Let's be chicks.
Don't do the thumb like that with our mouths open. I can make it quicker.
Love it.
Freeze frame.
Let's be alligator wrestlers.
It's just This is the poster. Those boys are out of here. This is the poster.
What's up, man? I've got six gators in my living room in real life. So,
Let's be doctors.
Let's be doctors. Uh, What kind of doctor? Turn your head and cough.
What kind of doctor? We didn't say what kind of doctor. We're not doing that again. We're not doing that one again.
Okay, let's perform exorcist.
There it is. That's really weird.
And last but not least, let's be clowns.
Well, I mean, I just visualize the most. which is all of us juggling something or in one car. A very small car. A small car, all of us leaded out cuz we're just too many of us. We're juggling. No bottles. Why would we? And then that that guy Jaws from the 007 movies. Yes. You know, with the big metal mouth he's chasing us. Yes. I like that.
I love it. I hope I've given you some ideas for a sequel.
You have.
Fantastic. Um, I know you guys are gonna do a Twitter takeover for us. Yeah. Um, we got lots of tweets for you guys to tackle. But before that happens, we did get an email for you. Um, they've apparently been emailing you quite a bit. Um, maybe posted it on your Twitter, but you haven't responded so I just wanted to read you this email.

So many typos.
They are, if you're gonna be a con artist, which, look, I understand this world is blurry, we all live in a gray area. So, I'm not even judging you. But if you're gonna do it, make sure you don't have typos when you're offering somebody $9 million. US dollars, yes. Okay, and with that we're gonna do the Twitter takeover. Thank you guys.
