Tim recounts trying to source an actual Shtreimel hat for his costume, failing because of Shabbat, and instead pulling over to talk with Orthodox Jewish teenagers in LA who recognized him from the show.
- Tim tried to get a real Shtreimel from connected people but couldn't because it was Saturday and Shabbat.
- Ended up going to Spirit Halloween instead, which he considers beneath where he should be in his career.
- Pulled over in an Orthodox Los Angeles neighborhood and called over a group of kids in traditional garb.
- Asked the kids if he could get a Shtreimel and they said they're not that sect, then asked if he was Jewish.
- One of the kids recognized him and said his mom listens to Tim Dillon.
- Tim expresses genuine belief in all cultures getting together and respecting each other.
- Despite the attempt, had to settle on the Spirit Halloween and Bevmo costume setup.
