"You can stump
any stoner with one question: What were we just talking about?" -Jim Breuer

and forth singing the Hokey Pokey.
Jim Breuer is best known for his appearance in the film Half Baked as the character
Brian, who, while all the characters were stoners (including the dog and "the guy on the couch"), he was the most
fargone of the group.
He is also fairly well known for his portrayal of various standup routines, perhaps most
notably including the "Boogey man".
While Breuer was singing the classic Judas Priest song "Devil's
child" on his show Breuer Unleashed, Rob Halford "The Metal God", singer of Judas Priest, entered the studio
