  • So whenever we start a new season,

  • there's always a big ad campaign to promote it.

  • But those are very expensive, so instead I

  • sent my executive producer Andy Lassner to New York City

  • to remind everyone to watch season 17.

  • And here's how he did it.

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • Why would the pain ever end for me?

  • It's season 17 and it continues.

  • So I'm going to mount it?

  • Yeah.

  • Oh, OK.

  • So this one's hydraulics, so you want to pump it

  • when you brake with this.

  • I want to what?

  • You got to pump the brake if you--

  • Oh.

  • Sorry.

  • [LAUGHS]

  • This is going to happen all day.

  • Not that I'm not used to disappointing people

  • Do you really?

  • Where do you want to go?

  • Don't honk me.

  • How long have you guys been together?

  • Year and a half.

  • Here's the thing, all I'm doing is

  • like I'm chewing your ears off.
