Equal Parts Fear and Admiration

"Equal Parts Fear and Admiration" is a song featured in *We Object to Fear: LIVE!*. Brian has asked Xander and his pretrial friend to describe his legacy—how they will remember him after graduation. They do their best to oblige.

## Lyrics

**Pretrial Friend**

I'll think about the first time

We all met at the bus.

And I'll think about how I was filled

With fear but also trust.

**Xander**

(whispers) Trust.

**Pretrial Friend**

I'll think about how you said

"This is the song we play on the bus,

And we don't vote on the song.

This is the song."

**Xander**

I'd say equal parts fear and admiration.

**Both**

Equal parts fear and admiration.

**Xander**

You come on kind of strong,

But then you finish...

Also strong, so—

**Both**

Equal parts fear and admiration.

**Pretrial Friend**

Why does the song have to be

"The General" by Dispatch?

It doesn't get us amped up at all.

**Xander**

Yeah, it's like,

Not really the best pretrial jam.

**Pretrial Friend**

We're trying to get super excited

And we're really hot in our suits

And you're like

"This is the song we play,

And you'll like it, that's the truth!"

**Xander**

So it's, I guess

**Both**

Equal parts fear and admiration.

**Xander**

With, like, a hint of pent-up disappointment

At your refusal to listen to other ideas, but

**Both**

Equal parts fear and admiration.

**Pretrial Friend**

We'll never forget how you impeached the cop

On your cross-examination.

**Xander**

It filled us with equal parts...

**Pretrial Friend**

Fear...

**Xander**

And...

**Both**

Admiration.

Studio Crew

The ***studio crew*** consists of the real and fictional individuals present during the recording of *Off Book*, and are always verbally credited at the beginning of each episode before the weekly guest is introduced.

## Commonly named crewmembers

* Jessica McKenna
* Scott Passarella, often referred to as "King of Pianists, Pianist of Kings"
* Producer Dana / Wicks-on-the-Sticks
* Engineer Brett / Brett-on-the-Frets
* Mailperson Stacy
* Karate Bird

## Other appearances

* In *Shawshank Wedemption*, Jess notes that the nicknames "Producer Dana" and "Engineer Brett" are reminiscent of children's shows where people are referred to by their job title and first name. The hosts then introduce Fireman Rick, Mailperson Dana, Grocer Brett, and Cowboy Demi (the guest). Over time, these evolved into the now-canonical crew.
* In *What's in Grocery Store?*, Milkman Danny, Postman Victoria, and Fireman Dave are present.
* In *Legally Can We "Let It Go"?**,* Milkman Stacy and Milkwoman Stacy are both present, as the podcast runs on a lot of milk.
* In *The Final Off Book*, all of the guests play different engineers that temporarily populate the studio.
* In *Thank God Superstar**,* Zach and Jess initially claim that Mailman Stacy, Camp Counselor Derek, and Chicken Salesman Randolph are present, but immediately admit to having been lying.
* In *The Kids Are at Night*, Jess state that Mailperson Stacy, Fire Chief Doug, and Milkperson Taylor are all canonically in the studio, though only Stacy continued to re-appear in later episodes.
* In *Men in Black 4,* Devon and Isaac are present.
* In *Do Trust the "D" in Destiny**,* Milkman Trevor is present.
* In Undercovers 2: Father Bod, David the Orangutan is present

## Trivia

* Although Brett is most commonly referred to as Engineer Brett, in *Actually, Love**,* Jess confirms that his canonical name is Choo-Choo Brett because he drives a train.
* After the show's producer Dana Wickens adopted a new role as the show's recurring drummer, she gained the nickname "Wicks-on-the-Sticks". Brett Morris's nickname followed similarly when he began to play guitar for the show.

Yeehaw!*

**Karen**

Oh, if you want to ride with me,

You gotta get in my Jeep Cherokee.

Gonna drive for miles and miles,

Every day I live that Jeep Lifestyle.

Oh, if you want to ride with me,

You gotta get in my Jeep Cherokee.

I'm gonna drive for miles and miles,

But I'm gonna do it every day

With Jeep Lifestyle.

Whoo! Karen, that's some Jeep lifestyle you got goin' on there!

**Karen**

Hell yeah, I got that Jeep lifestyle! What you got? You got that Jeep lifestyle?

**Jeep Teen #1**

Oh, I got that Jeep lifestyle!*

Every day I wake up in the morning,

My car, it goes "beep beep."

And the reason it makes the "beep beep" sound

Is because it's a Jeep. Jeep...

I'll ride around in it,

Just the way that it feels,

To be in a car that's made by Jeep,

It's got all kinds of wheels!

**Both**

Oh, if you wanna ride with me,

You gotta ride in a Jeep Cherokee.

If you wanna ride with me,

You gotta ride in my Jeep Cherokee.

**Rog'**

Hey, my name's Rog'!

This is my Dodge.

Jeep. To be specific,

Yeah, I love the Jeep lifestyle.

Ridin', ridin', ridin' it.

Beware no danger!

It's my Jeep Wrangler!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

**Karen**

I got mud on my face!

I got mud on my tires and glass.

If you don't got mud on you,

Then you can kiss my ass.

**Jeep Teen #1**

I got mud in my mouth, and mud in my nose.

If you don't have mud on you,

Fuck yourself I suppose!

**Both**

If you wanna ride with me,

You gotta ride in a Jeep Cherokee.

If you wanna ride with me,

You gotta ride in my Jeep Cherokee.

**Karen**

We're gonna ride for miles and miles!

Livin' that...

Jeep lifestyle!

 **Lisa**

Josh? I always thought I wanted to cut open frogs

 **Josh (spoken)**

*Yeah.*

 **Lisa**

I always thought I wanted to know what made up logs, and stuff

But maybe what I want is a friend

Even if that means that the world has to end

 **Josh**

You want a ride or die

 **Lisa**

I want a ride or die

 **Josh**

You want a ride or die

 **Lisa**

I want a ride or die

 **Josh**

The sort of friendship that belies explanation

You don't need to ask why

You want a ride or die

 **Lisa**

I want a ride, a ride or die

 **Chad**

Hey! Sister, what is going on in this room?

We've got so many frogs to open and we gotta start soon

*What?*

 **Lisa (spoken)**

*I'm leaving!*

 **Chad (spoken)**

*Why?*

 **Lisa (spoken)**

*I'm over all of this.*

But who will give the frogs a good night kiss?

 **Lisa (spoken)**

*Not me anymore!*

**Chad**

Well then I will do it, I'll do it all alone

I will kiss all of these frogs and make them my own

But you better be at dinner tonight at mom's at 9:43

 **Lisa (spoken)**

*Ugh.*

**Chad**

Otherwise it's just gonna be mom and me

**Lisa**

She's your ride or die

**Chad**

Yeah! My mom is my ride or die

**Chad and Lisa**

Ride or die

**Chad**

I like hanging out with the woman who gave me sweet, sweet life

She's my ride

**Lisa**

She's your ride

**Chad and Lisa**

Or die

**Little Quark #1**

Hey quarks, can I tell you this one thing?

Yeah!

**Little Quark #1**

When we collide, I feel such a sweet sting

**Little Quark #2 and 3**

Yeah!

**Little Quark #1**

And no matter what happens between you and I

I just can't wait for the moment we get to ride and afterwards die

**Little Quark #2**

You are my ride or dies

**Little Quark #1 and #3**

You are my ride or dies

**All Quarks**

When we collide

When we collide

When we collide

When we collide

When we collide

**Clarence**

Hey Carol, it's time to close up

We were thinking of going and get dinner, you know what's up

We were gonna go to that Indian buffet

That's like $10 for all you can eat

**Christina (spoken)**

*What a deal!*

**Clarence**

As far as deals go, oh man, Curry King is super sweet

Do you wanna come?

**Carol**

Thanks so much for asking me

But I think I'm gonna work a little longer

But you enjoy that great, great deal

I hope that curry makes you stronger

Curry's my ride or die

Curry's my ride or die

With some pakora and some dal and some naan on the side

But mostly curry is my ride or die

**Lisa**

You found something beautiful, if you will

Just like Oprah found Dr. Phil

Something smaller than a quark

What you've made here, Carol, is a work of art

**Carol**

When I look at our beautiful world

I like to think I rise above and love her

And that's what science is

We don't create, we simply discover

**Chad**

And I love science

**All**

I love science

Science, ooh

**Chad**

And hey, if I'm being honest

I love science, but I also love frogs

**Carol (spoken)**

*Sure!*

**Chad**

I feel like we all love in our own way

We all have our own personal gods

**Carol (spoken)**

*Okay, yeah*

**Chad**

And Lisa, you're different from me

And I don't understand you completely

But if you would come to maybe, just a little bit of Thanksgiving

Like the first half, somewhere in the middle, meet me

**Lisa (spoken)**

*I'll come to Thanksgiving.*

**Chad (spoken)**

*YEAH! KAY, BYE! WHOO!*
