On this episode of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast… Seth is gone but we have the “Threeodores” so we’re good. Andy talks about what he had for breakfast over the Oppenheimer score before the guys move on to talking about “Turtleneck and Chain,” focusing on the track “Trouble on Dookie Island,” describing its Wu-Tang/Raekwon/Ghostface homage, B-Sides beat, and the Scarface intro recreated for free by Michael Bolton! They play and dissect lyrics, debate misheard lines on lyric sites, and explain the “dookies” concept. Jorma shares multiple Howard Parker voiceover takes of “Trouble on Dookie Island” and the MacGruber-inspired origin of that title. They wrap up by looking back on the “Falcor vs. Atreyu” sketch from their album, teasing “Watch Me Do Me” and the surprising old-school inspiration for some of their comedy.  Show Notes Trouble on Dookie Island | https://youtu.be/LOfXGVuOblQ?si=xuKikV5vN7GqRpG_ RaeKwon - RainyDayz feat.
