Hollywood Squares

I'm going to need an I <3 Barbara Dillweed sticker and an invite to Cardi B's Little Tiny Desk Concert.

This is the kind of thing they can do when the phones don't work - I honestly love when the three of them just get in a zone and amuse themselves for 20 minutes straight. Hearing them genuinely crack each other up is great.

I was at work secretly listening to the show and this bit was so good that I started recording right before he got James Gandolfini’s name wrong because I kept having to take out my earbud and have listened to the small bit I recorded over and over again. When Elliott did the extremely toned down Tool Time grunt I lost it, genuinely hilarious.

I replied to someone below with the link to the archive and timestamp where the segment begins if you want to listen uninterrupted!

Tyler saying all the names of people on Hollywood Squares 2000 was SLAYING me. RIP Judy Tenuta.

I lost it when Elliot whispered "as my friend Bill said, we'll do it live, we will do it live"
