What do you say?
Are you ready to make our show today?
Hey, we're gonna play create.
Yes, but, son, our show today, we got puppets.
We have people.
We are places.
We have fun.
We have stories, we got music, we got games.
We got you.
Hey, take it away.
Hey, how's it going, Ray?
Oh, lovely.
Lovely.
Hey, you know, I just want to remind everybody, if you find yoursel watching the show and thinking, where are these answers coming from?
Well, they're playing the line on the plane.
How many faces?
And you could do that, too.
All you have to do is visit us at play with your TV.
You can sign up.
And then once you do, you can just share answers with us and help us make the show every week.
It's pretty cool.
Yeah.
All right.
We like to start the show every week by asking people who are on the interface a question, a couple of questions, really.
We find out about each other.
The first one we yesterday was, would you go swimming in chocolate sirup?
Oh, my.
I think that might do wonders for my skin.
Yes, I say yes.
Okay.
We'll see.
It might work.
Good for you.
For me, I, I would not do it because I would have a hard time getting it out of my fair.
That's true.
Yeah.
It would ever be impossible.
So I would say no, thank you.
I love, I love chocolate, but nope I do not want a swimming pool.
Wouldn't it be kind of fun?
This dude's here.
Is it now?
You know what?
Even when I eat chocolate, I get out of my hands and all of a sudden, it' so hard to get out of my fair.
It's just that it's a problem I can see.
All right, so the other question to ask everybody is, would you rather see through walls or walk through walls?
I know this one for sure.
I would rather see through walls because then you always know what's coming.
If you if you if you can't see it, you're just walking through while who knows what you'll bump into it.
Didn't see that kind of being expected.
You'd be like, oh boy.
Like if you see through the wild, you can try to get there, I guess, but.
Right.
What have you been there?
One could help se until the other person be like, yeah, they're sandwiches.
And the other side.
Ray, I love the way you think I love it.
Okay, s I'll see you through the walls.
I will help you navigate.
Yeah.
And then you can just walk through them.
Yeah.
Let's see what a great pair.
I love the way you think.
Well let's see.
What.
Are you ready?
Yeah.
Here is our viewers today.
Fun fact.
This is what we found out about everybody doing today.
It's it's pretty fun to find out about each other.
All right.
So 60% of 60% who would not swim in chocolate sirup like me.
What?
Prefer to see through walls.
Hey.
Also like me.
Yeah.
There's like you.
You're in the 60%.
Wow.
All right.
And break.
You're in the 40%.
That's good math.
Yeah.
That's good.
40%.
Yeah, I'm in the minority.
All right, well, thanks for sharing it.
It's still pretty close, right?
60%.
That's not overwhelming.
One of my I never even I thought we were not really sure.
Who wants to go swimming in the chocolate.
All right, I'm going to dive in right now into a game.
Yeah.
Speaking of math, this time for wait.
No, no, no I was gonna crunch numbers up t one out of two puppets make mistakes.
It's time for what's in a name?
Okay, so let's look at this name stocking.
That's classic.
Okay.
So look at the letters and see what words can you mak using the letters in the name.
So just pick some letters.
They can be in the order.
Or you can rearrange them like the G at the end.
And you can say the word go let's go.
Oh red monkey says King.
Okay okay I and G, I see the letters.
Good job Red Maggie.
I look at that one long loo at that right in the sequence.
Oh, and then that makes me think stocking somebody can take the word stocking and follow that.
Oh, look at stock.
Oh, that's good one.
Starfish.
Oh.
Ghost starfish kit.
We can make some puppet kits.
Thanks.
Red monkey stick a lot of these.
Pick up a stick and then I could draw pictures in the sand because what feels starfish.
Oh, pick the first.
Pick someone to help out.
I take great lobster.
Yeah.
Man.
Oh, man.
That's interesting.
The way the letters were selected, it was unexpected.
Stop.
Let's think about this more.
Let's put a pin in it and decide if my lips are sealed.
Wait I'll have my lips.
Midfielder.
If I said that.
Sting.
Yeah.
Glop.
I think gray lobster.
That's my favorite word of today.
I'm pretty sure.
What?
I'm gonna ring the gong.
Suck.
I forgot to put out my socks.
Thanks for playing.
What's in a name?
Soon.
Hi, friends.
Gribble.
Jim was Sparky here?
We've got a song we need your help with.
I don't know if you've ever heard this before, but they say a elephant has the best memory of, like, anything on our planet.
They say an elephant never forgets.
But I was thinking, you know, we have a lot of things that we have to remember every day, too.
So we want to ask you, what's something you have to remember to do every day?
So, for example, it's really important that I remember to feed the cat, because if I don't feed the cat, the cat doesn't eat.
So really importan that I remember to feed the cat.
So I want you to think of things like that, that you go, yeah, it's really importan to remember to do this every day and we'll see how many we can remember.
Are you ready?
All right.

I'm good.
I'm glad you're having us here.
Hey, how are Brad and Jill doing?
They still cruising all the time?
Oh, yeah.
All the time I was telling, I said hi.
Yeah, I will.
All right.
Awesome.
All right, so I'm so excited to be at the car wash.
I don't have a car, but I've always wanted to go through a car wash, so we're going to try to do that today.
Wow.
How many cars do you normall have come through the college?
You know, I like 200 to 300.
Maybe 400 are really busy.
My goodness.
And so the same days where you just know you wake up and you go, oh, today is going to be a crazy busy day.
Oh, it's definitely there are some very, very busy days.
Hey, so you guys don't just wash cars, right?
I mean, like, you got more than just running a car wash the inside too.
Wow, that sounds really special.
Yeah, we do a full detail cleaning.
Takes about half a day just t clean the inside of a full car.
Wow.
A half a day.
So when people come in and pick up their car, they're probably like, wow.
It's like I've got a brand new car.
It does usually.
Hopefully that's the idea.
All right.
Well we're super excited to look around, so thanks for having us.
Let's get to it.
Sounds good.
But you know, I go.
All right.
This is awesome.
We are going through the car wash.
Hey, thanks for getting me a car to go through.
Of course.
You're welcome.
I'm glad that you trust me.
He's driving as a squirrel.
Because I gotta be honest, I don't have a license.
Well, I think you can manage this part.
All right.
Oh, man.
There's something scrubbing around there.
Okay, I see this big fuzzy thing up here on top.
What is this?
First thing that I see?
Oh, that's the top.
Oh, that's the priest, Soco.
He's here.
So glad to self, I like this.
Oh, I feel like getting cleaner already.
All right, so, yeah.
Now this brush is coming down from nowhere.
Yeah, it's coming down.
It's gonna go right over us, and it's scrubbing these bubbles around, Oh, yeah.
The top of the car, too.
What's this one?
It's very drapery looking.
Oh, those we call them midterms.
They're kind of like a giant carpet that goes over and takes any loose things off.
What are they called?
Emitters.
Mirrors?
Yes.
Wow, I like that.
I've never heard of him better before.
Oh, yes.
Marcel.
Lots and lots of soap.
Oh, you notice these big spinny things on our side?
Such are the traps.
They look like dancers in a musical.
I feel like I made a musical right now.
La la la la la.
Wash.
Car wash.
Oh, look at all the colors on this south.
This is the best.
That's the Polish soap.
Wow.
So there's polish in.
Oh, here comes the hot wax.
Hot wax?
That way we can have this be the big, exciting.
What's that?
You'll hear that sound.
That's the low side washer.
Super pressurized.
Oh, and look, there's one.
Dances.
This is like hula dances.
La la la la la la la la la.
Yeah.
This one.
Good.
Have you ever thought of making a musical called Power Wash?
That could be a good idea.
I don't think it's.
I think it's $1 million idea.
We got to get working on that.
One more spraying here.
What is this now?
It's a smart water.
It beats water off the car.
It sounds like.
You can't come the dry.
Wow, look at that.
It's taking all the water away.
Wow.
Those must be really powerful.
Oh they are.
They're very loud, too.
It's a good thing we're in the car.
I have a feeling I get sucked right up in one of those.
That's it fo a squirrel outside of the car.
Was probably not safe for anybody behind the car here, right?
I wouldn't think so.
Yeah.
Probably not a good idea to be very, very windy.
Yeah.
That was awesome.
And we're done.
Thank you so much for taking us through here.
That was awesome.
Of course.
It's my pleasure.
That was so fun.
I love going to the car wash.
I don't know.
You seemed like you were a little scared, but when you're okay.
Well, I was more just amazed.
I was just like, oh, yeah, I loved it.
I thought it was great.
And I got to give a shout out to our producer, Sam, because, yeah, Sam got us a car, which was great because thought, who's going to give a who is going to give a car to a squirrel?
But Sam got it for us, so thank you.
Sam.
That was really awesome.
You're the best.
Yes.
Yeah yeah, yeah.
All right.
So.
Yeah, that was pretty neat.
I'd like to go back again.
I'm not sure if to let me drive again.
I did a pretty good job.
The car came back fine.
I actually came back cleaner than when I brought it for the first place, so that was good, right?
Yeah.
You kept the car.
Just went so straight, it never went left or right for some reason.
Yeah.
Now it did pretty good.
And, you know I then all except for the trees.
I love this game.
All right, we have to choose you.
You have to choose the door right now.
You can choose on your interface.
Turn number two I don't know three.
We don't know what's coming next until you let us know.
So I'm.
Or do you any pick first.
Well, I was gonna guess two.
I was thinking two.
Awesome.
All right.
This was just like, you're pretty good.
So I'm thinking.
All right, but the last couple of times I think both of us got it wrong.
Yeah, it is.
Now, what's going to happen?
Oh.
Awesome.
I love this one.
Okay, so here's how you play this game.
Okay.
We ask you on a scale of 0 to 10 zero being not awesom and ten being totally awesome.
How awesome are today?
We asked you chocolate chip cookies.
How awesome are chocolat chip cookies on a scale of zero, meaning that awesome to ten?
Yeah, well, you know, we talked earlier.
I do like chocolate.
So I go with nine.
Nine.
Yeah, because, you know, there might be I just can't leave some room for maybe something else.
Okay.
Well, I want to go.
Well, I guess I got to go.
I'll go nine as well.
I'm here.
Sam, is this right?
It's saying sharks and stuff.
But were you.
Did we ask about chocolate chip cookies?
Do we know?
Oh, cookies.
Oh 38.1 on the awesome meter.
Okay, I love it.
Well, that was pretty close.
You gave it a nine.
I think I'd give it a least a 9.5.
But 8.1 is not bad, right?
Yeah.
All right.
Well that's how you play the game.
Awesome.
Meta.
So thanks for playing with this friends.
Can we hear that again.
The awesome meter.
That's pretty good.
Oh meter.
Bendy and I started school again this week.
And it was so fun to se all of our classmates and hear about their absolutely horrible vacations.
Well, everyone didn't really hav absolutely horrible vacations.
They just pretended that they did.
Our teacher asked us to make up something awful that could happen on a trip.
Then we drew pictures of our imaginary, absolutely horrible vacations and took turns sharing them with the rest of the class.
I told my class all about the trip to the circus.
My cotto candy was really made of carton, but that's not the bad part.
When I ate it, it turned me into a monkey.
My family had four flat tires on the way to the beach, and when we finally got there, it snowed.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
Ray found giant earthworms, secretly slid into his other space suitcase and ate holes through all of his socks.
They were still in there.
Oh, yuck.
Yeah, you know that.
Actually, that does actually sound kind of cool.
When everyone's ideas were put together we had the worst vacation ever.
It was so much fun.
Yeah, it's really fun.
Hey, what happened in your imaginary, absolutely horrible vacation?
I'm going to draw another picture.
Yeah, let's get some Johnson.
That does sound fun.
What are you.
We asked you at home.
We said, hey, what happened on your absolutely horrible imaginary vacation?
And here's what you told us.
Oh, great.
Do you have any ideas?
Or you already?
You had your problem.
You had a problem with all the sex.
Why do you have so many socks?
Well, because I got to keep my feet warm.
Oh, I thought maybe you were anticipating that.
Maybe some earthworm that come and eat through them.
No, that was very unexpected at that time.
Yeah, that was it.
I would I would not expect that.
Were you scared?
Well, no.
In your imagination, I mean.
What a friendship with us.
I made friends with them till deer said they went to a place with no snakes.
Don't.
Don't die.
That's horrible.
Oh, blue cow said it rained every day.
Boom boom boom.
Yeah.
We need sad bone or something for that one.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
Everyone was sleeping.
