We should cut right to the chase, which is your anger translator sketch in which Jordan Peele, your partner, played the president. SAGAL: So there are so many things about "Key & Peele." We could just talk about some of the amazing sketches. I'm not telling you.īOBCAT GOLDTHWAIT: I was on the cover of Time Out magazine. We also were on the cover of Time for the 100 Most Influential People in the World or something in 2014. I was not expecting - we were not expecting that, that we got to be on the cover of Time for the - some essay we wrote. SAGAL: You became really fantastically well-known for "Key & Peele," and the next thing I know, you were on the cover of, I think, Time magazine. So we asked him back just to brag that we knew him first.

SAGAL: Then eight years later, Keegan had gone on to become a superstar comedian and actor, first with his sketch show, "Key & Peele," and then many movies and TV shows. SAGAL: But then when I get the patent for patenting patents, do I just have to give the money to myself? Whoa. It was like, did anyone ever patent getting a patent? Because then anytime somebody gets a patent, you get money.

SAGAL: And then there was this idea that came in. And all you had to do was think of the food. SAGAL: For example, patent for method of just, like, thinking of a food, and then you can taste the food. The patent office was just overrun with confused potheads submitting patents not for their pot but for ideas they'd had while using it. SAGAL: So maybe the federal government shouldn't allow you to trademark your illegal product. It turns out somebody in the patent office realized that selling marijuana is still a federal crime.

If you're just starting, just take the Sky Blue Totenberg. SAGAL: You take that stuff, all of a sudden, you're talking in different voices. SAGAL: For three months, growers and dealers of medical marijuana were allowed to seek trademarks for names like Maui Wowie, Chronic, Purple Totenberg. Patent and Trademark Office created a new trademark office for entrepreneurs, specific entrepreneurs in a specific business, and then they promptly shut it down. SAGAL: In keeping with this trend, many modern churches are moving to the Double Stuf communion wafer.

And that's why modern versions - ones painted in the last 20 or 30 years - modern versions of the Last Supper show Jesus and his disciples enjoying a KFC Boneless Bucket and 36-ounce Big Gulps. This obesity, scientists say, reflects the typical portion sizes of the period in which the paintings were made. It looked at 52 renderings of the Last Supper, and it found that in the last thousand years, the apparent amount of food on the supper plates has increased by about 70%. SAGAL: This is from a study published, as I said, in the International Journal of Obesity. SAGAL: It's like if Saint Paul says, you want me to supersize that? The study was done by the International Journal of Obesity. SAGAL: It's changed not in a particularly good way. ROXANNE ROBERTS: But you're on to something. SAGAL: Not that it will do him much good, but. SAGAL: You mean, like, as we get to the 19th century, oh, look. KEEGAN-MICHAEL KEY: The way that Jesus looks? Well, scientists looked at different versions of the scene painted over the centuries and discovered that over the years, something has changed in the picture. SAGAL: Keegan, the Last Supper has been a favorite subject of artists for centuries - the most famous version, of course, Leonardo da Vinci's. For example, back in 2010, we asked a performer from Chicago's Second City to come by and try his hand answering our questions. KURTIS: We've been around so long we've been able to see entire careers happen in front of our eyes. And to prove it, here are some highlights from the first 2 1/2 decades of our show. So this year is the 25th anniversary of our show - a fact so unbelievable, we need to take the occasional week off just to sit around and deal with it. And here's your host at the Studebaker Theater in the Fine Arts Building in downtown Chicago, Ill., Peter Sagal.

Who needs a beach bod when you've got this Bill bod? UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: The following program was taped in front of an audience of real live people.īILL KURTIS: From NPR and WBEZ Chicago, this is WAIT WAIT.
