*music* Sean Hayes and Smartless Media are excited to announce the birth of an all-new baby podcast. The podcast weighs in at a healthy 10 to 12 minutes. Sean Hayes is resting comfortably. This is Clueless. Welcome to Episode 1 of "Smartless Presents Clueless," a brand-new podcast where you, the listener, try to solve puzzles faster than Sean Hayes. My name is Elliot Kalen and I'll be your host, because Sean Hayes can't just ask himself the questions, can he? It would be unethical. And with me on every episode of this show is the man who loves games more than is really healthy. Mr. Sean Hayes, Sean, how excited are you for this new podcast on a scale from 9 to 10? You know, I'm at a 10, but you pick up the slack with your energy, Elliot. It's really infectious. Thank you. And listeners, by the way, this is Elliot Kalen, who you may know, was the head writer for Mystery Science Theater 3000, the daily show John Stewart, co-host of the Bad Movie Podcast, The Flop House, and now he's hosting this show for us. Yes. Thank you. Thank you. Now, Sean, we should explain to the listener. Okay. What does this show all about? Each episode, you'll be playing a different main game, and it might be a word puzzle, or identifying a song, we're choosing the odd one out. That game is called "odd one out," but it won't just be you competing alone. You'll also be bringing on a selection of your funny friends and family to play along. Who do we have with us today? It's Will Arnett and Jason Bateman, everybody. Hi. We're excited. I was trying to harmonize. Will, Jason, welcome to the show. How does it feel to be Sean's funny friends and family? Jason, you're your family. I'm family. I'm funny friend. You're funny friend. Before we begin, I have to know one thing. Jason and Will, what is your Sean Hayes gaming experience up to this point? Has he ever asked you to do it in public before? Oh, yeah. Let's keep it clean. We used to gather over at his house for Game Night. Sean has been with us. We used to play a lot of poker together. He's a gifted gamer. Let me just say that I got passed over a little bit on the game stuff.
And have I forgiven him? Yeah. I don't remember you being a big person. I don't remember you being a part of the group at that moment. No, I wasn't. I wasn't a part of the group. And it's a big conversation. You were always here. Yeah, I was on your mind. The trip for Istanbul and stuff, was that before, after Game Night at your place? Istanbul was after, but Venice was before.
Venice didn't go very well. No. And here we are. Well, now we're beginning. But now we're here in the beginnings, Elliot. Now you've really unearthed someone. This will stitch us back together. Maybe it'll launch a podcast of the three of us to be. But we're very excited. And I know Sean's love of games is deep, very deep. Yeah, I like it. It's fun. It's fun. Sean is a master gamer. I love getting that peek inside of your relationship. It briefly turned into a James Bond movie with all the international locations that got thrown into the mix. Sean, Will, Jason, enough talking about the past. Let's look ahead to the present. Today's main event. It's a numbers game, TV show edition. Cue the theme song.
