Mythical Creatures

In this animated segment, Martin plays Professor Irwin Glands, a professor in "mythozoology" and discusses some lesser known mythical creatures such as the "Vertimaid," the "Zebratard" and the "RexFidoBuster" which is a three headed dog with three dog bodies.

Getting the Harmonica the Cool Way

Martin is about to tell some jokes accompanied by his guitar when he realizes he doesn't have the harmonica rack around his neck and left it on top of the piano. So he gets up out of his chair and gets it "the cool way", by putting the rack in his mouth, going back to the chair, putting the rack on the microphone, and finally, putting his head in, while still playing his guitar.

Where My Jokes Go

Similar to the end of his special where he talked about where his jokes came from, Martin discusses/hypothesizes where his jokes go while some friends and relatives of his act them out. In between, he tells some more jokes, including one of his most well-known: "Glitter is the herpes of craft supplies."
