Jessica and Tim discuss which celebrities they'd want to meet, including wanting to look Woody Allen in the eye to judge his guilt, David Letterman as a 'taker,' and hanging out with David Spade in LA.
- Tim asks who would freak you out to meet and explains his fascination with Woody Allen — wanting to look in his eyes and determine if he's guilty.
- Allen as an opera-like figure, a New York staple, but the added complication that he's around a lot of kids.
- Guest mentions David Letterman as someone he'd freak out to meet, watched him every night growing up.
- Guest says he never liked Letterman despite thinking he's brilliant, categorizing him as a taker rather than a giver in comedy.
- Tim mentions Spade would be interesting because he fears him, notes Spade's wife is a fan and lives in LA.
- Guest hangs out with David Spade in LA and describes it as weird to befriend someone you grew up watching.
- Tim observes that huge celebrities are often so normal that it's disappointing — people freak out over them but then you wish you didn't know that about them.
- Guest explains the most famous people are easier to be around because they're not hungry and trying anymore.
- Tim brings up being in Nobu recently with Taylor Swift, DiCaprio, Travis Kelce, and Robert DeNiro all present.
- Guest agrees that celebrity worship is dying down, invoking Andy Warhol's fifteen minutes of fame quote as the future.
