Transition words & phrases

Because I know it's a new home for you guys.

But you guys are crushing it. New season, October 14th.

-Thank you, Jim, but we're coming off hiatus.

-It's, like, business terms and everything.

People in the street are like, "Damn. That's messed up.

You guys got canceled." I was like, "Actually we're on hiatus."

-Is there a story that you missed while you were on hiatus

-Oh, the Popeyes chicken sandwich scandal.

Because it was like -- -Walk me through it again.

Now, Popeyes been selling a spicy chicken sandwich

for months now, but someone on Twitter was just like,

And all of a sudden, everyone lost their minds.

And people were, like, exiting their 401(k)'s to buy chicken.

-And the wild part -- I was in Hawaii when this happened.

So, you know, I'm six hours off the time from the East Coast.

And I'm just watching it, and I was like, "Wow.

The world's been devastated by Popeyes Chicken.

'Cause there's two dudes standing outside of Popeyes

I was like, "These don't keep well, my guy."

You know what I'm saying? They're completely inedible.

-Yeah, yeah, I don't want to eat a cold chicken sandwich.

-It was sold out everywhere. And I was like, "You know what?

I have to live up to the hype. I got to get into this."

So I went to my local Popeyes chicken establishment,

and I went inside, and as soon as I walk in,

the lady behind the counter was like, "Yo.

If you're here for the sandwich, don't waste your time.

Don't get on line. There's no more sandwiches.

If you want sandwiches. There's no more sandwiches!"

So I was like, "All right. I'm gonna leave.

The guy behind me was like, "I think she's lying.

He was like, "I'm enjoying a fresh New York slice of pizza."

It's not real pizza. -That's methadone pizza!

-Also, if you've been following his Instagram,

is he running for president or is he just on vacation?

He was in Iowa. He's like, "Eating a corn dog in Iowa."

"Hey, we're having blackouts in the city."

He's like a father that won't come back to New York.

-"Dad, I think the babysitter's dead. Dad?"

But can you come back, please? We miss you."
