while

we're going to rewind to that so you guys have become an inspiration to many DIYers and creators who took over the

city

wide from this initial application.

We included a web series in this elaborately produced show on Comedy Central and here at Hot Ones we sometimes wonder what we'd do if we were on a budget like I don't even know how we'd fix this freak show funny love it. that and i'm curious when comedy central cleared the check for the first season of

broad

city what was the most amazing new way you discovered you could spend cash and then what was the biggest splurge we used to do for ten bucks than we were like stealing every shot stealing every location unless we're in a pizza place when we paid them like 50 to let us film there we're stealing it especially the subway stuff that's so hard to film with a real like once you've got a legit show they're like you can't film here for free so it was also like all these things that cost so much money that caused us my nose is like running from it I'm okay I'm not okay I like this one on that one too like show runners and starlets show.

I'm curious what was the biggest pain I had. n the ass scene to carry out it's my fault because i was directing the episode too and i chose this place which was like in the middle of madison square park like outside but it's like we're full oh completely watched by the city ​​like we were filming and it's what you see complete oh my god and it was a pain in my ass it was throughout the scenes it was the hottest day two days two days the century as it was it was like global warming. historic get ready the earth is on fire we had to have i had this as a tank top it was like full of boob sweat and we're dealing on a 96 degree day trying to dry it with a blow dryer was torture and it was starting to get too feeling a rush in my neck from this like a choker.

I was also like to clean myself because I was very hot. I was so angry and then also cold. um, the bridge. why people were like yeah yeah you know and it was constantly the manhattan bridge are you included? So, our team is win? It was crazy, it's crazy. Okay, I have to say the third. I didn't eat this little, not because of the spice because I'm really getting full. We're

eating

like a head full of coffee, right? budget you know you're on a budget i feel like high here it's ok i'm starting to get nervous or chill it's just a totally different flavor hot so the city is full of weed references and year after year y'all bless the internet with these 4 20 special, I know it's a show, but clearly you write what you know, have you ever made the firecracker shake?

eating

grass yeah I like it like you tasted like mushrooms you know I mean you're like you tasted instead of like you knew whatever doing something with it but um I don't know what it was it was like a bang for your buck how to get as high as possible um cheap qu Not that I don't approve but I'm like 31 you know what I mean so it's like it's not there anymore. I just love it that way better yeah that's dough yeah well I'm like a health freak so I make my firecrackers with almond butter and for some fat you can put it on rice cracker graham cracker or whatever or you could just put it right on a baking sheet and then put it in something after 17 seconds in the microwave 22 minutes in the stall on a graham cracker and then yeah oh and when it's in the oven you put it on parchment paper aluminum and, um, we'd lose our minds, we'd be like this, it's funny, cheers, we eat it and then we say I'll be right back and we'd like to curl up in our respective rooms and it used to be like no I don't do groceries, yeah, because I was doing crack, you know what I mean, like weed crack. okay im getting there but its my good tasty like really tasty guys we have a recurring segment on our show called explain that gram where we do a deep dive on our guest instagram take interesting pics that need more context alana her instagram is just a video of a confident girl falling on a school tour right now is yes because she wanted a fresh start for 2019. because like such big changes are happening but i couldn't delete that video it's so funny this girl in the High school is like falling into people, h

It's like many aspiring comedians that have come to New York, you guys had more than your fair share of odd jobs along the way, what do you remember what do you remember working together at a coupon service for salon spas? it's not like that it makes me feel like i'm alright kind of it's wild ok um what are you talking about so i loved it um lifebooker is what it's called i remember working in broad city from um two feet away you know what i mean and how if we were getting scripts well we had to do we had to make it pretend we were working but the job was to get salons and beauty and fitness services to do a deal with Life Walker and I did New York and you did La you know which was so funny it's like abby made a deal with jerry from The hair salon and i was like jer what's up jer anyway you know it went like this anyway what do we have in care straightening can you do uh sixty for cent off i came in jerry's it was so much fun it was like it was history it was such that we were always like drink i have to go to lunch but like take long breaks you'd smoke in the hallway in the stairwell idiot I'm an idiot I'd smoke in the stairwell as big as out the window as if there weren't any You don't like pens, so does it make your mouth salivate a lot? e yeah great and your nose I'm like I'm freaking out okay great no no no you're freaking out you're eating

wings

are you ready for the next one are you ready for this yes you're gonna do it huh just uh you're getting into it in the mouth completely yeah ok i dont think i can do that do what you want so there are some famous ucb hangouts including the peter mcmanus cafe in chelsea wait sorry. sorry i just had to describe my tongue has its own heat engine running so you're going to go on the journey along with your tongue it's like that like a friend i have i feel like i'm like have they ever eaten there? after improv practice or something back there yeah when we were like chicken fingers and chips at dinner every night but it was such a fried bar and you also reminded me recently about the hierarchy of being in the main area like the alcoholic regulars and as you know some like old d people were kind of hanging next to him and then kind of going into the green ripped nylon booths in the back eventually like there was a scene for us he's keeping the heat rising a bit and also like to come back to me like I'm choking speech in my throat yeah it's funny wow I feel like I'm going to throw up. one of these bff relationships that seems to hold up i can't handle it from set to real life but now it's time to put it to the test with a little segment we call the bff question cube and that's how it works. some questions in the bucket elana will you reach for the bucket ask the question yes i can't i can't abby or will you reach for the bucket ask alana the question what is happening for you to reach the bucket and then you ask alana the question oh god ok, i need a tissue i want too i literally made a spoon spoon coming out in a tissue on the deck.

Oh don't go i'm high oh oh you just answered mine yes you can't count maybe thinking you're not high yet ok what is the one thing online trolls are right about me? okay you're having a good time this is a star cop wow oh i'm feeling nauseous you feel, i feel so many things, have you ever had an idea for an episode that doesn't introduce me? no no it was fun ok so we made it through the bucket we made it through the bomb we got two more there was a time yeah sorry there was just a time like a moment ago when you were getting into the bucket that I got my mouth got cold and numb that's a bad sign when it's cold it was cold hellfire scared this good great good ok here we go smart now you got the oh it's so hot the ice cube chaser oh oh so besides the funny writing on the show it seems like a lot of the ways you guys laugh at each other isn't so much about what's being said all the time but how it's being said and i'm curious to what extent you say ityou attribute being from Long Island and philadelphia to places where accents and slang are very embedded in the identity of the locals, well it's also like, I guess, shades of white and suburbia and shades of Judaism make us laugh telling them apart and it's like who cares you know I think there's part of it too it's like different flavors of the same juice hero excuse me guys sorry hero or sub and she gotta get hoogie bro she's alright alright bro omg i just hit a plateau of relief that's good. place to be that's a nice place to be wow this is amazing you know what I mean this is like a challenge in a way I've never experienced this is the longest sentence on the island you can hit on the top of your head, oh, I don't know. um like mike picked me up in the hummer and then um we're gonna go to my dad's house and then we're gonna drive to the beach um and I'm not gay you know I'm not a thug it's Long Island sorry hot, but what is that?

What's going on here? So this is the last touch. We call it the last day because it's a tradition here to put a little more on the last wing. You do not have to do it. I'm sorry, you don't want to. I'm sorry, but can more ice be added to the pitcher? That's an interesting logistical challenge for our team or just a cup of ice and I'll throw it in the picture. Also, I guess you're going to put the whole thing in um no I don't think so okay oh y'all don't know that yet that's something oh I was going to make it all.

Ok I put this here oh my gosh ok did you eat this? However this is the same hot sauce that is already here yeah oh great cheers from number one cauliflower bite to number 10 cauliflower bite help with the ice too hot it's too hot what is it that? Oh my gosh, I just have chills. Yes, it's like a pre-vomit signal. You know, I mean it's a symptom. more hoop to jump through and we've talked a lot about what makes abby and alana tick from the do-it-yourself ethos that has made broad city one of tv's most beloved shows for its roots and improv but one thing we have 't discussed is their shared love of bathing in bed and beyond so now with our lips on fire mouths of burning brains scorched with hot sauce I need to know why that one stop shop for electronic cookware and towels is the chain largest in the world so in high school high school my mom worked bethany bed at a couple different ones in suburban philadelphia and she was really good friends with this cast of characters they were all so nice and loved working there ,they've been amazing to us too they let us film there twice um i would just go there with my mom it would be like marshall's in bed bath you know what i re I mean, usually, mom used to like, you know, like walking, a cart picks it up, I don't know, and it's also like everything there is very useful and I like the facade of making us bring the copper I like these versions and I like these too im like a throwback to the role ok very convincing case done and look at you alana and abby 10 cauliflower chicken wings up 10 cauliflower chicken wings down and now theres nothing left to do but roll out the red carpet for you this camera is on camera or this camera lets people know what you're going through in your life well guys you gotta watch the show rod city um it's the second episode airing tonight comedy central this is the last season big deal me i'm freezing i think we're really cold down here it's weird i'm like ice cream i think you'll love it dude it's really good season 5 is really good and i'm also like here saying bart city is one of the best tv shows ever e all the times it's so much fun i love it it's my favorite show it was so good great job you enjoyed it too i did it too even though it was really painful i loved it because it's so different and like my tongue is so numb hey what's up going?
