## Notes & Memorable Quotes

### Pre-Guest Segment

* Sean over the theme song: I'm on the porch with Martina Navratilova, Martina McBride, Martina Hingis, and the Gorburger. And we're drinking sweet tea and we're checking our various joints to feel if the storm is getting closer
* Sean's foot swelled up like a bee's nest
	+ Swelling in the same manner as a bee's nest - it's still a normal size of a foot
* Gorburger cracks a one-liner so hard that Sean, Martina, Martina, and Martina are in stitches. Sean laughs so hard that sweet tea gushes out of his nose and splashes all over everyone.
* Then Sean says, "Well! I guess we don't have to worry about getting wet from the storm anymore!"
* Hayes asks: Can we leave Gorburger out of this? Do we have to punish the Gorburger? He trusts people! He believes his friend!
	+ Gorburger (AKA G-man AKA Gorby) tried to eat Sean

### Guest Segment

* Matt thinks it's tragic what happened to Gorby. He's worried about him and hopes he doesn't do a Louis fuck-up apology
* Matt sends a gift basket once or twice a week to Gorburger with: almonds, Snickers, popcorn, Jewish Candy (R), and tissues
* Hayes asks about Matt and Jake's show Corporate and the billboard campaign that shook Sean to his core
* Matt is too scared to talk about the billboards, but Jake is brave enough to tell the tale
	+ So Matt goes on to explain the initial campaign from the network was to have a picture of Matt and Jake and it would say something stupid like, "Welcome to your new friends, Matt and Jakey"
	+ The final version is sick and twisted
* Jake wants to know how Sean was "shaken to his core"
	+ Sean: Marketing and general advertising traditionally makes one feel happy and excited (A new toothpaste flavor, wow!)
	+ Sean breaks down his billboard reading experience:
		- "Comedy" : we're safe
		- "Central" : ok, I know that timezone
		- "Is" : starting to get a feeling in the pit of my stomach like - uh-oh
		- "Corporate" :
			1. Is this true?
			2. This is disappointing
			3. I'm scared!
