Feed Drop - SmartLess Presents ClueLess with Elliott Kalan and Sean Hayes!

[0:00] Hey folks, Dan here. If you're like me, and mostly I don't recommend it,

[0:04] you just cannot get enough of that lovable scamp, Elliot Kalen.

[0:09] Well, have I got good news for you. There's more Kalen for you to consume.

[0:14] Not literally. Don't eat him. You know what? I'll let Elliot tell you about it.

[0:21] Hello floppers, I'm Elliot Kalen, and I can't wait to tell you about the new podcast I'm hosting for SmartLess Media. It's called

[0:28] SmartLess Presents Clueless, a bite-sized twice-weekly game show with a different main game and cliffhanger puzzle in every single episode.

[0:35] And all this season, our contestant on every episode will be Mr. Sean Hayes.

[0:41] It's a lot of fun. The kind of thing you can play along with on your coffee break, or waiting for a bus, and since you

[0:46] never know what the game will be, you won't want to miss a single episode.

[0:49] I'm about to play a clip from our first show, where Sean was joined by his pals Will Arnett and Jason Bateman to play a

[0:55] very silly pop culture math game.

[0:58] I hope you enjoy it, and don't miss the two-episode premiere of SmartLess Presents Clueless on November 18th, wherever you get your podcasts.

[1:09] Let's take that relationship and jeopardize it further as we play this episode's main game. It's a numbers game, TV show edition.

[1:26] I keep forgetting there's a band right behind me.

[1:31] Because I saw them load in. I can smell the weed.

[1:36] It's a numbers game.

[1:41] This game is built around TV shows with numbers in their titles.

[1:44] You are going to be tested on your very useful knowledge of television shows, and also your very useless knowledge of basic elementary school math.

[1:53] 227.

[1:55] I like that you were so ready with a number right off the bat.

[1:58] It will be a winner in one of these questions. Each question will take the form of a simple math equation, only instead of numbers,

[2:05] I'm gonna tell you a TV show title that has had the number removed from it.

[2:10] Oh, shit.

[2:11] You're gonna have to recognize the show, understand the number, and then solve the equation using the missing numbers.

[2:16] And you can get a bonus point as a group for responding with an answer in the form of a TV show title.

[2:23] So I'm gonna give you an example. This is just a practice one. This doesn't count to your score.

[2:26] Let's try this out. If I said

[2:29] Day Fiance minus for 30.

[2:32] What would the answer be? And you can talk it out, too. Work it out between yourselves.

[2:35] 90 Day Fiance, 30 for 30.

[2:37] So it'd be 60.

[2:38] Yep, you got that right. And if you wanted that extra point, what is there a show title with 60 minutes?

[2:44] You got it, 60 minutes.

[2:46] You could have also said Studio 60 or any of the millions of TV shows that have 60 in their titles.

[2:51] Yeah, okay, then let's play. It's a numbers game, TV show edition.

[2:56] The first question is

[2:58] Million Dollar Man

[3:00] divided by

[3:01] Stooges.

[3:02] Six Million Dollar Man. Yep.

[3:06] Three Stooges. Three Stooges. Six divided by three is two. Oh, two, and then you got to do a show with two in it.

[3:13] Um, 227.

[3:15] You got it. Perfect. Two points.

[3:18] Fuck, you used it. You used it right away.

[3:20] I feel like I should give you double extra points because there's two twos in that name.

[3:25] Yeah, I would like it. I'll take it.

[3:27] Okay, so that's three points total for that first question. You're getting more points than you're supposed to.

[3:35] Question two is Reno nine plus and a half men.

[3:41] 14.

[3:42] Reno nine one one, three and a half men.

[3:44] Two and a half men.

[3:47] Fucking dummy. It's 13. Hang on, hang on.

[3:52] Reno nine one one could be 11 or two ones.

[3:56] I think we got to go with 11. I think we have to go with 11.

[3:59] Okay, 11 and then what is it?

[4:02] Plus two is 13 and 13 reasons why.

[4:07] Yep, you got it. That's great. What's 13 reasons why? Oh, it's a YA vehicle on Netflix.

[4:13] It can be seen massively successful.

[4:15] Young people love it. Young people love it.

[4:17] Yeah, that sucks.

[4:20] And I can give you 14 reasons why.

[4:28] Let's go to question three. This one might be a little more difficult.

[4:31] I'm going to try to enunciate as much as I can.

[4:32] This is heaven times company.

[4:38] Seventh heaven.

[4:39] Seventh heaven times.

[4:41] 21. Wait, wait, 21 Jump Street.

[4:44] That's right. You got it.

[4:46] I thought you said something different on the second show.

[4:48] I thought it was six something.

[4:49] It could have been sixes company.

[4:50] Who's your cable provider?

[4:52] Could you get different shows?

[4:54] Three and a half men, sixes company. Yeah.

[4:59] That was very fast, very impressive.

[5:01] You guys are blazing through this game.

[5:03] Let's continue it to number four.

[5:05] This question is Beverly Hills.

[5:08] 0210 minus is enough.

[5:14] One of those 90210 is enough.

[5:17] But we got to think of the show minus eight.

[5:19] Oh, one murder, murder, one murder, one.

[5:23] Very good. Well, yeah, very good.

[5:25] You got it.

[5:26] I don't know when that's two full points.

[5:27] It's just fantastic.

[5:28] And I'm Sean, by the way, you suck at this game.

[5:31] I haven't got one answer.

[5:32] No, I got the first one.

[5:34] What are you going to put in your head?

[5:35] What are you doing?

[5:36] I'm writing the numbers down.

[5:39] It's obviously helping.

[5:43] Question five.

[5:44] Yeah.

[5:45] Things I hate about you minus Babylon.

[5:50] What is it?

[5:50] 10 things I hate about you or what is it?

[5:53] What's that?

[5:55] Is it 10 things? Is it 10?

[5:57] I think it's 10 things I hate about you.

[5:59] Mine is Babylon. Five.

[6:01] Babylon. Babylon five.

[6:02] Yeah. So it's

[6:05] party of five.

[6:06] Great. You got it.

[6:07] Wow. Wow.

[6:09] Good. That was good.

[6:10] Party of five. Incredible.

[6:11] Well, you have you all have such unique strengths

[6:13] that come together as a team.

[6:15] Jason, with the numbers.

[6:16] Will, with the TV shows.

[6:17] Sean, with the writing down the numbers.

[6:18] Yeah. Which is good for record keeping for later.

[6:21] Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

[6:21] For sure. Sean, would you consider it a compliment?

[6:24] He says your strength is writing stuff down.

[6:27] Yeah. That's all he can take.

[6:29] Great. I'll take anything I can get.

[6:31] Is there in the Marvel?

[6:32] Sorry. In the MCU.

[6:33] Is there a character?

[6:34] Is there a superhero

[6:36] whose superpower was writing stuff down?

[6:41] The stenographer.

[6:43] He was the stenographer.
