Hey, is there's something coming--

- Spider-Man is also quoting
"these nuts" now? Okay.

00:00:49.607 --> 00:00:50.984
- This is like an audio meme.

about deez nuts?

Am I supposed to know what they are?

00:02:21.819 --> 00:02:23.985
(movie reel clicks)

00:02:23.985 --> 00:02:25.701
- (Finebros) Okay, so what 
did we just show you?

00:02:25.701 --> 00:02:27.323
- These nuts. (laughs)

00:02:27.323 --> 00:02:32.679
- It's a very interesting meshing 
of videos with these nuts!

00:02:32.679 --> 00:02:35.887
- Several people's interpretation of...

00:02:36.327 --> 00:02:38.664
this one, I guess, product?

00:02:38.664 --> 00:02:40.551
But I don't know what the connection is.

00:02:40.551 --> 00:02:43.291
- (Finebros) So what exactly does 
he mean by "deez nuts"?

00:02:43.291 --> 00:02:43.927
- Balls?

00:02:43.927 --> 00:02:45.081
- He's talking about his privates.

00:02:45.081 --> 00:02:47.593
- He referring to his own nuts, his balls.

00:02:47.593 --> 00:02:48.834
- I'd say nutty people.

00:02:48.834 --> 00:02:50.495
- They were all a little nuts in the head.

00:02:50.495 --> 00:02:51.746
- I-I-I don't know.

00:02:51.746 --> 00:02:53.989
(laughing) I'm missing it for some reason!

00:02:53.989 --> 00:02:55.558
Maybe I'm too old.

00:02:55.558 --> 00:02:57.180
- (Finebros) Is there another 
potential meaning

00:02:57.180 --> 00:02:59.872
for the word "nuts"?
- Come on, you guys!

00:02:59.872 --> 00:03:01.773
- I wasn't thinking perversely.

00:03:01.773 --> 00:03:04.626
- Okay. (laughs)

00:03:04.636 --> 00:03:06.072
You don't mean nuts like you eat.

00:03:06.072 --> 00:03:06.985
His balls!

00:03:06.985 --> 00:03:08.189
- (Finebros) What did you think of the guy?

00:03:08.189 --> 00:03:09.310
- He had too much teeth.

00:03:09.310 --> 00:03:10.438
- He had big buck teeth!

00:03:10.438 --> 00:03:12.096
- The guy with the deez nuts?

00:03:13.076 --> 00:03:13.881
Not much.

00:03:13.881 --> 00:03:15.426
- Oh, I felt kind of bad for him.

00:03:15.426 --> 00:03:17.594
You know, he looked like
he kinda mighta had a disability.

00:03:17.594 --> 00:03:18.816
- I thought he was hysterical.

00:03:18.816 --> 00:03:21.084
I love that he was so amused.
That just cracked me up.

00:03:21.084 --> 00:03:22.810
- (Finebros) Did you like watching these?
- Yeah.

00:03:22.810 --> 00:03:23.345
- Yes, I did.

00:03:23.345 --> 00:03:25.165
- (chuckles) I liked these videos.

00:03:25.165 --> 00:03:26.458
- The one with Steve Harvey was good,

00:03:26.458 --> 00:03:27.565
and the rest of them were just stupid.

00:03:27.565 --> 00:03:28.854
- A couple. Not all of them.

00:03:28.854 --> 00:03:32.177
It depended on how it was intercut.

00:03:32.177 --> 00:03:35.983
- Well, the way they'd been 
combined is very creative

00:03:35.983 --> 00:03:37.055
and I think it's hilarious.

00:03:37.055 --> 00:03:38.433
- I admit, that was funny.

00:03:38.433 --> 00:03:40.238
But so stupid!
God, you know--

00:03:40.238 --> 00:03:41.702
I'm too old for this kind of stupid.

00:03:41.702 --> 00:03:44.499
- You know, you keep 
doing this to me. (laughs)

00:03:44.499 --> 00:03:47.063
I think they're 
the strangest things I ever saw.

00:03:47.063 --> 00:03:48.816
- (Finebros) So this has 
become this huge trend

00:03:48.816 --> 00:03:50.195
and even younger kids

00:03:50.195 --> 00:03:51.925
have been making these and watching these.

00:03:51.925 --> 00:03:53.515
Do you think this is appropriate 
for younger people

00:03:53.515 --> 00:03:54.650
to be watching?
- No.

00:03:54.650 --> 00:03:55.248
- Not really.

00:03:55.248 --> 00:03:57.297
- Do I think it's appropriate? Nooooo.

00:03:57.297 --> 00:04:00.048
(giggles) But would anybody care 
what I think at this point?

00:04:00.048 --> 00:04:00.704
Noooo.

00:04:00.704 --> 00:04:01.496
- That's fine.

00:04:01.496 --> 00:04:02.985
- It seems kind of harmless.

00:04:02.985 --> 00:04:06.090
- Considering what all is available to them,

00:04:06.090 --> 00:04:10.229
it may be one of the least
worrisome problems that we have.

00:04:10.229 --> 00:04:11.966
- (Finebros) There's also something 
odd about this trend

00:04:11.966 --> 00:04:13.885
that had something to do 
with politics this year.

00:04:13.885 --> 00:04:16.136
Do you have any idea what it could be?
- No, none.

00:04:16.136 --> 00:04:16.968
- No, I don't.

00:04:16.968 --> 00:04:18.349
- It probably has something 
to do with Trump.

00:04:18.349 --> 00:04:19.594
It sounds stupid like Trump.

00:04:19.594 --> 00:04:22.311
- (Finebros) So what happened 
was somebody officially filed

00:04:22.311 --> 00:04:24.293
paperwork with the FEC

00:04:24.293 --> 00:04:27.401
to run as an independent 
presidential candidate

00:04:27.401 --> 00:04:30.279
as "Deez Nuts."
- (laughs)

00:04:30.889 --> 00:04:32.192
- Deez Nuts? Really?

00:04:32.192 --> 00:04:33.741
- (laughing) I think that's funny.

00:04:33.741 --> 00:04:34.996
- (Finebros) And, at one point,

00:04:34.996 --> 00:04:37.268
it was polling as high as 8-9%

00:04:37.268 --> 00:04:40.076
in Iowa, Minnesota, and North Carolina.
- Oh wow!

00:04:40.076 --> 00:04:43.152
- Yay! (laughs) Great.

00:04:43.152 --> 00:04:45.508
- The nuts are voting for Deez Nuts.

00:04:45.508 --> 00:04:47.539
- (Finebros) Why do you think 
people would joke vote

00:04:47.539 --> 00:04:50.098
for Deez Nuts?
- Well, simply because

00:04:50.098 --> 00:04:53.077
it's probably just as effective
as voting for anybody else.

00:04:53.077 --> 00:04:56.847
- They think that all the candidates
are such worthless nuts that,

00:04:56.847 --> 00:04:58.291
"Why not Deez Nuts?"

00:04:58.291 --> 00:05:00.422
- (Finebros) Back to these videos,
this is one of many

00:05:00.422 --> 00:05:02.107
short form video trends,
like ones we've shown

00:05:02.107 --> 00:05:04.547
on the show before,
where people remix original footage

00:05:04.547 --> 00:05:06.087
to create their own versions.

00:05:06.087 --> 00:05:07.316
Could you ever have imagined this

00:05:07.316 --> 00:05:08.801
becoming something people like to watch?

00:05:08.801 --> 00:05:09.966
- No, I couldn't.

00:05:09.966 --> 00:05:10.584
- Not at all.

00:05:10.584 --> 00:05:11.596
- I can understand that

00:05:11.596 --> 00:05:14.517
because you get 
a wide spectrum of creativity.

00:05:14.517 --> 00:05:18.570
- Most people seem to follow fads,
and if it's a fad, yeah, people will follow.

00:05:18.570 --> 00:05:20.174
- Sure, look at commercials.

00:05:20.174 --> 00:05:21.455
Do you remember "Where is the beef?"

00:05:21.455 --> 00:05:23.455
Everybody went around saying,
"Where is the beef?

00:05:23.455 --> 00:05:25.206
Where is the beef?"
Yeah, that's the same thing.

00:05:25.206 --> 00:05:27.115
- Remember how much fun
we had with mad libs

00:05:27.115 --> 00:05:28.800
because it was so stupid
and you could put

00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:30.017
all that dirty stuff in there?

00:05:30.017 --> 00:05:32.727
There's been something--
just to be goofy

00:05:32.727 --> 00:05:34.237
for the sake of being completely goofy

00:05:34.237 --> 00:05:36.264
and having a really good laugh-- forever!

00:05:36.264 --> 00:05:38.247
- (Finebros) So finally,
do you yourself consider

00:05:38.247 --> 00:05:40.126
this to be entertaining?
- Yes, I do.

00:05:40.126 --> 00:05:41.836
- Yes. It made me laugh like crazy.

00:05:41.836 --> 00:05:43.346
- Sure! I'm laughing my ass off.

00:05:43.346 --> 00:05:44.349
- (hesitantly) No.

00:05:44.349 --> 00:05:45.443
- I guess so. Yeah.

00:05:45.443 --> 00:05:47.730
- It does not entertain me enough.

00:05:47.730 --> 00:05:49.180
- Well, not so much deez nuts,

00:05:49.180 --> 00:05:50.591
but what people chose to do with it--

00:05:50.591 --> 00:05:52.725
that was hysterical funny.

00:05:52.725 --> 00:05:53.295
- Not at all.

00:05:53.295 --> 00:05:56.911
After about... as many as you gave me,

00:05:57.211 --> 00:05:58.929
that's about as long as I would watch it.

00:05:58.929 --> 00:06:00.252
- I don't think that's entertainment.

00:06:00.252 --> 00:06:01.917
I mean, it's cute.

00:06:01.917 --> 00:06:04.030
But give me Abbott and Costello 
if you want funny.

00:06:04.030 --> 00:06:05.628
- I don't know if I would go to the extent

00:06:05.628 --> 00:06:07.414
to where I'm gonna sit down
in front of a TV

00:06:07.414 --> 00:06:11.295
to a half hour or hour long 
episode of doing this,

00:06:11.295 --> 00:06:13.122
but if there's nothing else on, yeah,

00:06:13.122 --> 00:06:15.509
I'm gonna probably do it
just to get a good laugh

00:06:15.509 --> 00:06:17.585
because this one gave me a good laugh

00:06:17.585 --> 00:06:20.434
for a short period of time,
and I love to laugh.

00:06:20.434 --> 00:06:23.724
