like I said to the other guy,

I recently added

phone service

to our cable package

and the rate I was given

was $129 a month.

But I received our bill

and it says $159 a month.

So I was just wondering...

Yeah, okay.

Three months trial period.

[sighs] Okay.

Uh, is there a cheaper bundle

that I can sign up for?

No, that would be

more expensive.

Yeah.

All right. You know what?

Never mind.

No, thank you.

All right. Thank you.

Bye.

Come on.

I'm doing amazing

in Iowa.

I'm crushing it

in New Hampshire.

Jeb Bush is a loser.

Lindsey Graham has

a woman's name.

And I'm gonna build an

amazing wall around Canada.

[Joanne laughing]

Oh, my God.

You should have seen Joe's face

when I jumped out with that.

It's scary.

Okay.

Here's the moment you've

all been waiting for.

I know.

- Oh, my God.

- Wow.

[Kendra] Oh, my God. Look at

this perfect little angel.

I know. I could

stare at it all day.

[Kendra] Joe, this little

fella has your eyes.

No, it doesn't really

have eyes yet, does it?

"It"?

A toast...

to...

Team Jojo and

Little JoJo Junior.

Thank you.

Cheers.

[Joanne]

I love you guys.

- Wow! Nice.

- Yummy!

Mm!

- [Andy] Great.

- [Kendra] Mm. Jo!

Thank you.

Holy sh*t. Is...

Is that phone actually

from the 1990's?

Like, does it just

play rap-rock

straight from the phone?

Can you just play Limp Bizkit

from that phone?

- Andy!

- I just... I don't know.

- I've never seen...

- Jackass.

No, Joe made the sacrifice

of giving up his cell phone

so that we could

save money.

It... It was really not

much of a sacrifice.

I work from home, and the phone

was ultimately a distraction.

All I did was obsessively check

social media all day.

What are you... What are

you working on right now?

Well, since I had such

positive response with Tilt,

I decided I was gonna work

on another documentary.

I thought you were writing

a screenplay for some reason.

No. No, it's a documentary.

Uh, it's mainly about how

the American Dream, it...

Well, how the myth of

the American Dream

is actually antithetical to

the capitalist model.

So I focus on the post-war period

of the 50's and the early 60's.

This wok is amazing.

- [Joseph] Like, this, uh...

- Sorry, go ahead.

- [Joseph] No, it's fine.

- Actually could you put...

This time period that's

held up to be,

um, this Golden Age

of American life,

when in actuality...

[baby wailing]

- I'm just starting to realize now.

- I'm sorry.

[baby continues crying]

- Can I help you?

- No, I got it.

So which, as we're learning

now with things like

- the Occupy movement.

- [Kendra] Andy, where are the diapers?

They're right

by the front door.

It's prosperity for
