Andy Samberg...

- You know I have a hormone disorder!
- Oooh
RIDERS= Cyclists.
SAMPLE= Demonstration.
STUNTMAN= A man who substitutes for a performer in scenes requiring physical daring or involving physical risk.
WHISKEY/ WHAT/WHY= Many years ago, the H in the interrogative WH-words was pronounced (what /hwɒt/ , when /hwen/ , why /hwaɪ/ , etc.). It was soon lost in America and, later, in England and now nobody pronounces it anymore. So instead of /hw/ we say /w/ . As a hypercorrection, he pronounces an H in “Whiskey” (that also starts with WH-). And as a stupidity, he even pronounces an H in “Will” ( /hwɪl/ ).
CREW MEMBER= A member of a team.
TO PARTY= To have fun going to parties, bars, discos, etc.
RELAX= Don’t worry.
CRUNCHES= A sit-up exercise to strengthen abdominal muscles.
MEET YOUR MAKER= Die. Your Maker is God (the one who made you), so if you die you go to heaven and meet your Maker. In a colloquial way it is use to mean: “I’m going to defeat you”.

A STUNT= A feat displaying unusual strength, skill, or daring. The colloquial and rude adjective “big-ass” is just emphasizing.
MOUSTACHES= Pronounced as in French /məstɑ:ʃ/
A HORMONE DISORDER= When your body doesn’t produce hormones in the correct measure, so some things in your body don’t work correctly (in this case he can’t grow hair on his face).
