00:01:21

00:01:44

00:01:54
Customer 1
 

UPS FedEx DHL post office who?

00:01:59
Greg
 

Just kidding, it's Greg, let me get some parmesan.

00:02:03
Customer 2
 

Oh, Greg, it's good to see you, Greg.

00:02:06
Customer 1
 

Say when.

00:02:08
Greg
 

Little more. How you guys been?

00:02:12
Customer 2
 

We have had a good week. Greg, how are you?

00:02:15
Fake Manager
 

Hey guys, I am the manager, I heard there was a problem over here?

00:02:21
Customer 1
 

No, everything's good. We thought there was a delivery at your door.

00:02:27
Fake Manager
 

OK just want to—

00:02:28
Customer 1
 

But it's just our friend Greg.

00:02:31
Fake Manager
 

Just want to make sure everyone is satisfied here at The Olive Garden.

00:02:35
Greg
 

Are you sure you're the manager? I saw you sitting at another table.

00:02:42
Fake Manager
 

Oh, shoot, I forgot, I was just wearing what the managers wear here.

00:02:48
Delivery Man 1
 

Knock, knock, knock.

00:02:50
Customer 1
 

Who's there?

00:02:53
Delivery Man 1
 

1-800-Flowers.

00:02:56
Fake Manager
 

You [unintelligible]...

00:02:58
Greg
 

Don't leave now, you came over here just like the manager.

00:03:03
Customer 1
 

You're our friend now. 1-800-Flowers who?

00:03:07
Delivery Man 1
 

1-800-Flowers TeleFlora!

00:03:11
Fake Manager
 

Oh I have heard this one.

00:03:13
Greg
 

You actually ordered this?

00:03:17
Fake Manager
 

I ordered this joke to my table.

00:03:21
Customer 1
 

I'll have one joke for the lady.

00:03:24
Diane
 

Please don't order for me.

00:03:27
Customer 1
 

Oh it's a feminist!

00:03:27
Diane
 

Fuck you!

00:03:33
Delivery Man 1
 

Everybody calm down.

00:03:35
Fake Manager
 

I think I should get back to my table.

00:03:38
Customer 1
 

Who did you come with today?

00:03:40
Fake Manager
 

I-I feel bad getting caught as the fake manager. I'm not the manager.

00:03:47
Diane
 

Honey, get back to the table. Stop pretending to be the manager.

00:03:53
Fake Manager
 

I'm sorry, Diane, here I come.

00:03:55
Diane
 

I'm beginning to think you dress up like managers on purpose so you can pretend to be them. And I want a divorce.

00:04:06
Fake Manager
 

Wait... wait... wait. Don't divorce me in an Olive Garden.

00:04:11
Waiter 2
 

Hello? Can I get you both some extra parmesan?

00:04:15
Diane
 

We're standing up having a fight!

00:04:18
Customer 1
 

Read the room, dude!

00:04:20
Waiter 2
 

Ok, I will head back to the kitchen with this bowl of parmesan.

00:04:25
Fake Manager
 

While you're there, you said 'bowl.' Can I get a bolognese?

00:04:31
Waiter 2
 

Would you like that as an appetizer?

00:04:33
Customer 1
 

This guy ordered a bolognese in the middle of his divorce!

00:04:39
Diane
 

Honey, this is unacceptable. Last time we had a fight you ordered a pizza!

00:04:47
Fake Manager
 

And what happened? It solved our problem.

00:04:50
Delivery Man 2
 

Knock, knock, knock.

00:04:51
Diane
 

Oh, who's there?

00:04:54
Delivery Man 2
 

Domino's.

00:04:56
Customer 1
 

Domino's who?

00:04:58
Delivery Man 2
 

Domino's Pizza Hut.

00:05:01
Fake Manager
 

Hello folks, I am the real manager here.

00:05:06
Diane
 

You simply stepped away a couple feet, put on a mustache, and came back.

00:05:11
Fake Manager
 

That is because I am the real manager.

00:05:14
Customer 1
 

Why did you say 'real?'

00:05:18
Fake Manager
 

Ok, ok, I've been caught.

00:05:21
Customer 1
 

You left your divorce to deal with a problem at the restaurant as the fake manager.

00:05:28
Fake Manager
 

How about that bolognese? I think the bolognese will calm us all down.

00:05:35
Diane
 

Okay, maybe that's true. Guess I'll have some bolognese and see if we can calm down.

00:05:45
Waiter 2
 

Are we all invited to have bolognese? Or is this a issue that you want to deal with individually?

00:05:53
Fake Manager
 

Of course. Here is a fork. Here is a fork. Here is a fork.

00:05:57
Diane
 

Perfect. Forks for bolognese. A bowl of bolognese sauce.

00:06:03
Waiter 2
 

Here is the bolognese.

00:06:05
Fake Manager
 

Wait a second. Is there no pasta in this bolognese?

00:06:09
Waiter 2
 

You only ordered bolognese. You did not specify a pasta.

00:06:14
Fake Manager
 

What kind of freak would only want sauce? What kind of freak would only want sauce?

00:06:20
Waiter 2
 

That is a good question. I just assumed you were going to put the bolognese on the pasta you had.

00:06:28
Diane
 

At this Olive Garden, do you have to order the pasta separately?

00:06:34
Waiter 2
 

Yes. This is a unique Olive Garden.

00:06:37
Diane
 

What's the name of it?

00:06:39
Waiter 2
 

Olive Garden...

00:06:40
Demon Voice 1
 

Satan!

00:06:40
Diane
 

Olive what?

00:06:46
Demon Voice 1
 

Satan!

00:06:49
Customer 1
 

One more time.

00:06:51
Demon Voice 1
 

Satan!

00:06:54
Customer 1
 

Oh, I think I've heard of this place.

00:06:57
Tom Hanks
 

Can I get a refill on my Coca-Cola?

00:07:00
Diane
 

Oh my God. Look who it is. It's Tom Hanks!

00:07:07
Customer 1
 

Tom Hanks drinks Coca-Cola in The Olive Garden.

00:07:10
Waiter 2
 

Tom Hanks walked up to me and asked for more Coca-Cola. I'll be to your table soon, Mr Hanks.

00:07:18
Tom Hanks
 

Okay, I was just unsure because you haven't been here in 35 minutes, and I wanted to go tackle it all.

00:07:25
Waiter 2
 

I didn't want to seem star-struck and like I was giving you too much attention.

00:07:31
Tom Hanks
 

It's more obvious when you ignore me that you love me.

00:07:34
Diane
 

Mr. Hanks, can I ask you a question?

00:07:38
Tom Hanks
 

Of course, I am the people's champ.

00:07:40
Diane
 

What, sorry? Go back just a little bit.

00:07:45
Tom Hanks
 

I am the people's champ.

00:07:46
Diane
 

Okay, now my question has changed. Did you, did The Rock get his idea of 'The People's Champion' from you, Mr. Tom Hanks?

00:08:01
Tom Hanks
 

This is crazy, I get this all the time.

00:08:03
Diane
 

You do?

00:08:04
Tom Hanks
 

I get this all the time. He beat me and took my name in a match.

00:08:10
Waiter 2
 

Your name used to be The Rock.

00:08:13
Tom Hanks
 

My name was The Rock and I was a wrestler until I got big.

00:08:19
Waiter 2
 

You're saying before you shot the movie, 'Big,' you were a wrestler?

00:08:24
Tom Hanks
 

I shot the movie 'Big' and I was going to continue both a movie career and wrestling. But The Rock beat me up and told me, 'Stop wrestling.'

00:08:33
Diane
 

Were you simply just The Rock or were you multiple wrestlers?

00:08:38
Tom Hanks
 

I was also Papa Shango, who wears white face paint and does spells.

00:08:44
Diane
 

Were you any others?

00:08:47
Tom Hanks
 

Well, yes I was: The Ultimate Warrior.

00:08:52
Manager
 

Hey Tom, stop fraternizing, your tables need to be bussed.

00:08:56
Waiter 2
 

Wow. Tom Hanks works here as well.

00:09:00
Tom Hanks
 

It's been a rough stretch since 'Captain Phillips.' And I have to get a job to care for my son, Chet Hanks, who doesn't act.

00:09:11
Diane
 

So if your son doesn't act, he's immediately expensive to take care of.

00:09:17
Tom Hanks
 

My son has made me poor by not acting.

00:09:21
Demon Voice 1
 

Satan...Satan...

00:09:24
Demon Voice 2
 

Satan...

00:09:25
Demon Voice 3
 

Satan...

00:09:26
Demon Voice 2
 

Satan the devil.

00:09:27
Diane
 

I'm so sorry to hear that about your son. Were you any other wrestlers?

00:09:33
Tom Hanks
 

Of course I have come down from the rafters as Sting

00:09:38
Diane
 

That was you?

00:09:39
Customer 3
 

We remember that.

00:09:40
Tom Hanks
 

Coming down from the rafters, coming down from the rafters.

00:09:44
Customer 3
 

Were you nWo Sting or real Sting?

00:09:48
Tom Hanks
 

I was luckily there for both iterations.

00:09:51
Customer 3
 

Lucky you.

00:09:52
Diane
 

Lucky!

00:09:53
Waiter 2
 

When did you pass the mantle of Sting to the real Sting?

00:09:59
Tom Hanks
 

Well, uh haha, uh haha.

00:10:01
Customer 3
 

Sounds like it's going to be a funny story.

00:10:04
Tom Hanks
 

I think I am the real Sting. But I passed it to Gregory Schmibbledib to be the new Sting when I got 'Castaway.'

00:10:15
Diane
 

So you were simultaneously acting and being a wrestler.

00:10:18
Tom Hanks
 

I was Sting and Tom Hanks for 15 years.

00:10:21
Waiter 2
 

Wow, that is impressive.

00:10:23
Customer 3
 

And 'Castaway' was such a struggle to prepare for that you decided you could only do one or the other.

00:10:30
Tom Hanks
 

That's right. Would anyone like a refill?

00:10:33
Diane
 

Yes. I'll takes some more passion fruit tea.

00:10:34
Waiter 2
 

I'm sorry. I would, I, never mind.

00:10:39
Diane
 

What were you going to say? Were you going to tell us something emotional and you got scared?

00:10:45
Customer 3
 

It's okay to be vulnerable in front of strangers at The Olive Garden.

00:10:49
Demon Voice 1
 

The flames of hell burn eternal.

00:10:53
Demon Voice 4
 

Burn eternal. Burn eternal.

00:10:56
Demon Voice 2
 

Bernie Sanders-ternal.

00:10:57
Demon Voice 3
 

Bernie Sanders-ternal.

00:10:59
Demon Voice 1
 

Bernie Sanders' toenails need Purell.

00:11:01
Demon Voice 2
 

Bernie Sanders needs anti-bacterial for his toenails.

00:11:07
Demon Voice 4
 

Bernie Sanders would have been elected if not for his dirty feet.

00:11:11
Waiter 2
 

Bernie's feet are disgusting.

00:11:16
Diane
 

What were you going to say that was emotional?

00:11:19
Waiter 2
 

I was going to say that I've been working at this Olive Garden for a long time and I...

00:11:27
Diane
 

You're going to propose

00:11:28
Customer 3
 

To The Olive Garden?

00:11:30
Waiter 2
 

And this Olive Garden...

00:11:31
Tom Hanks
 

Oh my God. Oh my God. He is doing it.

00:11:35
Diane
 

Isn't The Olive Garden already married to its breadsticks?

00:11:39
Tom Hanks
 

I heard they were on the rocks.

00:11:42
Waiter 2
 

Yes, I was going to say: Olive Garden, if you are not happy in your marriage to your breadsticks, I would love to make me... I would love for...

00:11:56
Diane
 

Oh no, he's botching the proposal.

00:11:58
Tom Hanks
 

He would love to make himself the happiest man in the world.

00:12:02
Waiter 2
 

I would love to make myself the happiest man in the world by marrying you, Olive Garden.

00:12:10
Tom Hanks
 

Oh, my God, I'm just realizing this man is Borat.

00:12:16
Diane
 

Oh, my God. How did we not notice this whole time? Is this Sacha Baron Cohen as Borat?

00:12:23
Borat
 

I am wearing my tiny bikini.

00:12:27
Customer 3
 

On all days I come to The Olive Garden alone and get to see Tom Hanks and Borat.

00:12:33
Borat
 

That's right, Olive Garden, I would like to make you *my wife*.

00:12:38
Tom Hanks
 

Chicken parmesan, chicken parmesan.

00:12:43
Diane
 

Those were mine. Those were mine. Those were mine.

00:12:44
Diane
 

Those were his. Oh, my God. The Olive Garden is saying no. And unfortunately, it's on the jumbotron.

00:12:53
Borat
 

That is right. This Olive Garden is in a basketball stadium and I proposed in front of it and I am on the jumbotron. Please stop looking at me.

00:13:04
Customer 3
 

Oh, now they've turned the jumbotron, a proposal, into a Kiss Cam. No one will kiss this man.

00:13:12
Tom Hanks
 

Oh wait, oh wait. No-kiss Cam. It's the No-kiss Cam.

00:13:16
Customer 3
 

Sorry, Gene Simmons.

00:13:18
Borat
 

This is embarrassing.

00:13:20
Tom Hanks
 

They are kicking KISS out of the building.

00:13:24
Customer 3
 

Wow, KISS is doing the perp-walk out of the building and they are filming the whole thing.

00:13:28
Demon Voice 1
 

Satan's service. Satan!

00:13:31
Demon Voice 3
 

Knight in Satan's service.

00:13:34

I love Satan. Satan!

00:13:36
Demon Voice 3
 

Perfect day.

00:13:37
Demon Voice 2
 

Eat me, Satan!

00:13:38
Demon Voice 1
 

Eat meat, Satan!

00:13:39
Demon Voice 3
 

Satan is a vegetarian!

00:13:42
Demon Voice 4
 

Satan is on keto.

00:13:46
Demon Voice 1
 

The fires of hell burn from ketogenic diets like fat in your body.

00:13:51
Diane
 

Hold on. Tom Hanks, why are you getting into a basketball uniform? Don't tell me you're also many different basketball stars.

00:13:59
Tom Hanks
 

No, no, this is a Halloween costume.

00:14:03
Diane
 

Oh right, it's in the dead of center of Halloween tonight.

00:14:07
Tom Hanks
 

I am leaving The Olive Garden-slash-stadium to go trick or treating with my boy Chet Hanks.

00:14:13
Diane
 

Oh, are you trick or treating because you're so poor and you need the candy for your family?

00:14:19
Tom Hanks
 

He will not be with me. I will be getting candy to give to my son.

00:14:22
Diane
 

What did he say? Were you disappointed when he told you he was not going to be an actor?

00:14:28
Tom Hanks
 

He said, Dad, I think we have enough money acting. I would like to be a rapper producer that no listens to.

00:14:35
Diane
 

That was part of his goal that no one would listen to him?

00:14:38
Tom Hanks
 

Absolutely. Lifestyle but no content.

00:14:42
Borat
 

Lifestyle, but no content.

00:14:45
Customer 3
 

Lifestyle, but no content.

00:14:46
Demon Voice 1
 

Satan hates content.

00:14:49
Demon Voice 2
 

Content is king.

00:14:52
Demon Voice 4
 

Satan has outlawed the internet from Hell.

00:14:56
Demon Voice 1
 

The Beatles stole my idea to record like this. It is Satan and the Beatles are kidding.

00:15:03
Demon Voice 2
 

The Beatles are kidding.

00:15:06
Demon Voice 4
 

The Beatles, their whole career, were just kidding.

00:15:08
Demon Voice 3
 

They're kidding. I'm serious, I am Satan and I am not joking about this.

00:15:15
Demon Voice 1
 

This is how albums are good backwards. The Beatles are only a joke.

00:15:19
Demon Voice 2
 

The Beatles thought that they were funny guys, but they are not actually funny.

00:15:26
Demon Voice 3
 

Satan is funnier than the Beatles, ask anyone.

00:15:29
Demon Voice 1
 

Satan is a wild and crazy guy.

00:15:32
Borat
 

Satan could do a lot of funny comedy, but he's stuck in Hell.

00:15:39
Diane
 

Satan actually met with Lorne in the late eighties, but he botched the meeting, so he didn't get to host 'Weekend Update.'

00:15:48
Tom Hanks
 

Satan and Farley are friends in Hell.

00:15:51
Customer 3
 

Farley picked Hell to hang with Satan, and they had a van down by Styx River.

00:16:00
Borat
 

Farley was the only person to ever be given a choice.

00:16:04
Tom Hanks
 

If you ask me, reverse recording is cooler than forward recording, right?

00:16:09
Diane
 

Yes, I think the rest of the podcast will be this way now.

00:16:13
Borat
 

Yes, that is right. It will be from here on out.

00:16:17
Tom Hanks
 

And by that, of course, we mean Satan's podcast in that he's recording from hell backwards on the Teachers' Lounge.

00:16:24
Borat
 

That is right. It is called 'Satan Needs A New Friend.' It's...

00:16:31
Customer 3
 

'Satan Needs A New Friend.' I interview people in hell and say, Maybe we could hang.

00:16:37
Tom Hanks
 

Might as well start at The Olive Garden, my favorite restaurant.

00:16:41
Diane
 

Inside of a basketball place.

00:16:44
Tom Hanks
 

The New York Knicks play here.

00:16:46
Diane
 

It's Madison Square Garden we're in.

00:16:48
Borat
 

Madison Square Olive Garden is the name of this restaurant.

00:16:53
Tom Hanks
 

Where else did you think Hell would be located?

00:16:56
Borat
 

The middle of New York City?

00:16:58
Diane
 

We just moved here from Port Authority.

00:17:02
Customer 3
 

The who what where of this situation is a Madison Square Olive Garden in Hell.

00:17:08
Diane
 

And also let's recap how many people were in this scene. We had the original...

00:17:14
Customer 3
 

...table that wanted parmesan.

00:17:17
Tom Hanks
 

Then we had the manager come over.

00:17:20
Borat
 

Who actually was not the actual the manager.

00:17:23
Customer 3
 

Don't forget friend who was pretending to be delivery.

00:17:26
Tom Hanks
 

His wife, manager's wife.

00:17:30
Diane
 

It was... and then... and then we had Tom Hanks, or was the manager actually Tom Hanks?

00:17:37
Tom Hanks
 

Tom Hanks and the manager are same, but then we realized one was Borat.

00:17:43
Customer 3
 

Chet Hanks was referenced, but never physically in the space.

00:17:46
Diane
 

And we zoomed out to realize we were in the Madison Square Olive Garden.

00:17:50
Customer 3
 

What is capacity there?

00:17:53
