Tim jokes about pretending to broadcast from Long Island while actually building a fake set in California, then pivots to Tig Notaro replacing Chris D'Elia in a show and questioning the lack of a definitive article proving D'Elia's wrongdoing.
- Tim announces they're broadcasting from Long Island next week, then admits it's not true because he respects quarantine laws.
- They're designing a studio in California that looks like Long Island, complete with an overweight loud person doing shows outside Governor's who people will mistake for him.
- Tim compares being mistaken for Amy Schumer to two stars in the sky being indistinguishable — just a couple of interchangeable stars.
- He plans to make videos in New York and see his mother and father before the second wave of COVID kills them, which he claims he will make happen.
- Benjamin will be filming and editing to help curate the beautiful experience being delivered, alongside someone who looks like Tim.
- Tim jokes that someone looking a lot like Benjamin — Tig Notaro — is replacing Chris D'Elia.
- When somebody gets replaced in Hollywood, usually a straight white guy gets bumped for someone else, but they're replacing Chris with another straight white man, which Tim says is good.
- Tig and Chris look like brothers, Tim observes, setting up what would be a funny show with that pairing.
