Brian, you forgot the other details of the 4 Seasons Landscaping parking lot. They were between a mortuary and a sex toy shop that had a dildo sale advertised. If that wasn't a perfect microcosm of the GOP, I don't know what is!
There are even fanfiction pieces with the premise "Which character runs the mortuary, which owns the landscaping place (sudden presidential press conference is optional), and who owns the sex shop? Like a tag your faves🤣
Four Seasons Total Landscaping was one of the absolute funniest days on the internet. I'm so glad I was alive to witness that. I still think of that day with fondness.
It is one of the few things I actually laugh about every time I hear or remember it. And it's a perfect microcosm of Trump: 1. He promises something without checking the feasibility. 2. When his promise inevitably falls flat, he leaves his goons to make fools out of themselves. 3. His cult following will still believe that they got their promise fulfilled because they moved the goalposts to the ball.
I'm sorry Tommy, you could have had 9 of them but if the only one Brian had was Four Seasons Total Landscaping, that would still get my vote. That remains one of the funniest things I have ever seen, partially because of how batshit crazy that whole week had been. I will never forget that chaos. I hadn't slept more than a couple of hours since Tuesday, we'd had the highs and lows of watching the numbers go back and forth, then just after the delirious giddiness hit upon realizing Trump definitely lost, Rudy Giuliani accidentally does a press conference in the parking lot of a landscaping company between a sex shop and a crematorium, just because he couldn't admit that they hadn't cleared it with the real Four Seasons before announcing it. The situation was hilarious, the memes were legendary, and the whole thing just felt like a fever dream.
I don't know if it was ever determined for sure, but I always imagined they announced the Four Seasons as the locale, then someone at the actual Four Seasons said "Uh, no you fucking ain't", so they had to pivot (instead of just announcing a different venue and owning their mistake) and went with Four Seasons Landscaping, playing it off as a nod to the blue collar folks. People from NY know where the actual hotel is; there's no way they didn't realize they were headed the wrong direction. Right?
Major props to Tommy, says he doesn't like spicy, and still chomps off half of it in one bite. That's... Dedication? Bravery? Stupidity? All of the Above?
@@blaisemacpherson7637 Listen after Brian eats the chip and Tommy offers to pour him some milk. It's kinda hard to hear but he says he's allergic to milk.
That Sean Spicer moment made for one of my favorite SNL spoofs. Which brought me the idea that you two should do a ranking/draft of the best SNL political spoof moments. Tommy won this one.
Thank you for this!! I'm in bed with Covid & the chip challenge had me volleying between belly laughing & hack-coughing but it was so worth the discomfort 🤣😭🤣😭🤣
Dear God. I forgot how bad the "inject disinfectant" press conference was. There's warnings stamped all over cleaning supplies telling a person to not ingest or use in closed spaces. How were people supposed to apply it at home? No one has access to the type of medical equipment needed to enter the lungs and place disinfectant on a particular spot.
Donald Trump tried to downplay the comment by saying he was being sarcastic. That is very telling in how he took this terrible moment in our history. He has jokes
The worst was Doctor Statue that wasn't able to tell the audiences live and on TV not to do that or they would die! If one of mine had done this I would have accused them of homicide and or sued them both!
I will NEVER get over the four seasons total landscaping! I was losing my mind while it happened and I think about it constantly ever since. So funny. So so funny
Random fun fact on the Nixon "I am not a crook" remark. The event wasn't just a press conference in Orlando, It was a convention held in a ballroom at Disney's Contemporary Resort, the flagship hotel at Walt Disney World. It's a weird thing to associate with Disney World but I think about it every time we visit.
This is awesome. You guys are the best. I've had COVID for 8 days (first time) and been laid off during the strikes for five months, and watching this just now made me forget about that for a minute cuz I fell over laughing. Perfection. Props to you guys. Thank youuuu - again!
@@audreywellham2413 thank you so much. I think I've been lucky to get a Paxlovid prescription (and exprrience minimal side effects), and now at the start of day 4, I'm finally feeling better. Thank you for much for your kind words. This illness is real and challenging.
I learned a lot from watching this intelligent and informative political commentary. Specifically, I learned that hiccoughing Brian can make me laugh out loud.
OMG! The funniest ending! You guys are a hoot! BTC was ruthless in his victory punishment for Tommy! Lol I really enjoy the chemistry you two so obviously have! There's nothing like earning a living doing what you love, is there?!
I to this day feel for whatever staffer was the first to arrive at the four seasons landscaping address. It was probably the person with the lectern and the campaign posters in their trunk, and the slow dawning realization of what had happened, and the grim certainty that they were just going to have to do their best to make the situation look legit.
Loved the Biden one! He has such quick wit!!! Said what everyone was thinking! Trump disinfectant one just shows how mentally incapable he is! The world was mortified that he would say something so incredibly stupid! And for the Sean Spicer one, we all know who told him to say that. Trump was utterly humiliated that no one showed up!
Yeah, Doocy got the best out of being called a stupid son of a b*tch. Biden shouldnt have said that - in public, even if he thought, the mic was off, but he was also absolutely right. That question from Doocy was a whole new level of stupid, which is quite impressive considering the already very low bar for Peter Doocy.
Four Seasons Total Landscaping. That one fired on all cylinders. Brian wins just by picking that. Between the obvious mistake of the location and Giuliani's utter refusal to accept reality it was a gift in every sense of the word.
@phanatic215 the fact that they allowed them to have that press conference in the alley behind their store told me everything I needed to know about them. I feel very confident that they picked up the phone, heard what the Trump team wanted, probably picked up on the error that Giuliani missed and let them do it anyway. The fact that they made commemorative t-shirts after the fact just affirmed my already held belief that they're likely extremely cool and good natured people. But it's awesome to have a person confirm it!
I would add the joint press conference between Trump and Putin when Trump sided with Putin over his own country's intelligence agencies. That floored me!
That was hilarious😂! I have to go with Tommy this time, mainly because of the shoe throwing. I’d forgotten this one and laughed until I cried. Good job both of you!
I always love these videos with Tommy and BTC. The chip challenge had me howling. Tommy's "The milk isn't even helping." really killed me. Also the black and white montage 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Brian's dog just chilling while his Dad is hiccuping and tearing up from the spicy food .. priceless
The Four Seasons Landscaping debacle felt like it was plucked right from an episode of Veep! I would've PAID to see Drumpf's face when he tuned in and saw Rudy standing in front of a garage!
I want to give it to Tommy for “Trump’s Disinfectant Injection” alone, but Brian has the best overall list. I mean, come on…”I’m Not a Crook” press moment is THE most iconic press moments of all time.
I loved all the press conference gaffs, but watching you guys melt down with the extreme spicy chips was just high quality entertainment. Now you guys never have to go on Hot Ones!
doing the one chip challenge as an act of solidarity and instantly getting violent, total body encompassing hiccups earns Brian some mensch points but this round goes to Tommy
Gotta give it to Brian, just for the Four Seasons. It's gonna be very hard for anyone to give a more disastrous press conference than that one even if they tried. Oh and Brian, I really like Casual Brian in these shows! Not that I dislike Formal Suit Brian from your own channel, but this relaxed, jokey, friendly banter just works so well for you. Kind of like when Seth Meyers decided he didn't need to bring back suits after Covid :)
I love you both! Your punishments have me crying from laughter. Keep it up and know that you’re allowing information to flood in to people in a fun and engaging way. Coming from someone raised JW who wasn’t allowed to say the Pledge of Allegiance or participate in anything related to civics lessons. I’m 36 and still learning. Keep up the amazing work and thank you all!
Awesome video, the ending was a hoot! 😅 Have to give the new contest to Tommy for the disinfectant press conference. The look on Birks face will stay with me forever! 😮
Great job guys. With all due respect for you guys, that was undoubtedly the most hilarious ending. Tommy almost falling out of the chair with the milk and Brian with I think hiccups. Bad idea, but funny stuff...KUDOS. 😂😂😂
If the metric is unforgettable, then BTC clearly won with "I am not a crook" and the 4 seasons total landscaping. Those two would sweep no matter what.
Four Seasons Total Landscaping automatically wins. It’s the funniest day I’ve ever lived through, hands down, full stop, no exceptions. I want someone to interview the employee who took the call and “booked” this event in their back parking lot. I want to buy a shirt advertising their business with the back of the shirt saying “Professional lawn care. Edging and trimming. Weed removal. Presidential election press conference parking lot availability.” I think about this day all the time and it always makes me smile.
First I'd like to apologize for laughing SO hard at your guys' pain at the end of this show! Second I want to know why, WHY! did BTC also eat a chip knowing he could not use milk to mitigate the heat?!
That shoe incident shows the abysmal quality of the Secret Service. The man threw a shoe, reached down and took his other shoe and still had a clear view to throw the second. Utterly disgusting. A knife or hammer or explosive thrown accurately would have potentially killed Bush.....
Oh, I knew the chip was going to be bad when I say Tommy take a huge bite of it. A bit painful to watch, but the editing on it was so good. As for the picks, I think I've got to give it to Tommy. Shoe and bleach are just iconic. And I might feel slightly bad for him lol.
I think Tommy won this one, at least up til he lost to a chip. 😂 I grew up in Texas but lived in Colorado for 5 years, and people there apparently thought you had to challenge Texans to eat hot things, and I of course ate them, so I sympathize.
"Boxers or briefs?" defined a generation. It became the quintessential question to normalize a public figure. And while everybody thought that answering boxers made them cool and briefs made them uptight, not answering made the person seem like a smug SOB.
As good as all the clips were, Tommy and Brian eating the chip won. Tommy, I am so sorry you had to go through that. Honestly, I would have walked off the set and quit rather than eating that. My motto is "nothing spicier than a baked potato". I hope you both recover and thank you for the wonderful mix of education and entertainment you always provide.
So if Four Seasons Hotel sued Four Seasons Landscape for name copyright infringement and the landscape company says that no one in their right mind would confuse the two, they would be wrong. I'm curious if the mix-up has been used in subsequent lawsuits.
