00:00Miranda Otto, who is in the Lord of the Rings realm.

00:06It's time to get up and to tell people of Philadelphia Miranda Otto's birthday.

00:12Yes, I think it was in the third film.

00:15She plays a princess who disguises herself as a soldier.

00:20Is she not the daughter of the king as well?

00:22I believe that is why she had to hide herself.

00:25I have to see that movie again.

00:27They did really good with you.

00:28How did I come out?

00:30You came out wonderful.

00:31Was I good and heroic?

00:32Of course you were.

00:33Good.

00:33You were eventually Gandalf the gray and then you became Gandalf the white.

00:37Gandalf the retired.

00:39Everybody's there.

00:39And finally Gandalf the mobility scooter.

00:42She is 54 today.

00:45Okay.

00:45Just looking at a picture of her.

00:47I know her.

00:47Yeah, you know her.

00:48I love her.

00:49You know her, Casey?

00:50Yeah, personally.

00:52She used to clean my house.

00:54What the hell is happening?

00:56I don't know.

00:57He's riffing.

00:58He's going.

00:59I'm not riffing.

01:01Oh, she really used to clean your house?

01:03Yeah.

01:03Damn.

01:05That's pretty awesome.

01:06That's pretty wild, man.

01:09You'd think she'd have some money from Lord of the Rings.

01:11Well, no, no.

01:12I mean, she used to.

01:13Now.

01:13She's, you know.

01:14She's fallen on hard times.

01:16Meteoric rise.

01:16Word has it that she gives Handys for fivers.

01:19Jesus.

01:20Oh, my God.

01:22That was tenor for me.

01:25I wish this was tenor.

01:26Very popular in the Shire.

01:27The conversion from pounds to dollars.

01:31Okay.

01:33Miranda Otto is 54 and she gives Handys for fivers.

01:36Oh, man.

01:39Yep.

01:40Kristen Ritter has a birthday date.

01:42It's a big one for her.

01:43She's 40 years old, so a milestone birthday for her.

01:46When we laugh at stuff like that, like that exchange has just occurred, is a good portion

01:50of that laugh the knowledge that we're in the Broadcasting Hall of Fame.

01:54Oh, yeah.

01:55That's the level that got us into the Hall of Fame.

01:58It is.
