He's dating Shakira. What Jamim Butler's dating Shakira? I don't know, But
0:05
why did you say that? All Right? I'm Ali, I'm Andy,
0:20
I'm Jeff, and I'm Ria. And this is notable nostalgia. That's right,
0:31
it's a Halloween episode. What's up, nostalgia nerds. I'm glad you're
0:35
here with us today and today we have Ali, Jeff and Ria. How
0:39
are are you three doing? How? How are you doing? How are
0:46
you doing? Ready? I'm ready? Are you Afraid of the Dark?
0:53
Yeah? And I didn't go too much into are You Afraid of the Dark
0:55
because we've already done it, like multiple times. So if you do have
0:59
any questions about are You Afraid of the Dark? Go back and listen to
1:00
some of our past episodes and we explain all everything about it. I'm gonna
1:06
have to do that because I don't remember any I don't remember anything about Are
1:11
You Afraid in the Dark? So, but have you ever watched it before
1:15
this episode? Where I have not? Oh? Okay, yeah, I
1:19
don't really remember it either since I was a little kid, but I I
1:23
vaguely remember this episode because this one made me cry, and it made me
1:30
cry as a little kid, and it made me cry as an adult.
1:33
Taylor Swift, I did cry like three times a Taylor Swift. Were there
1:38
people dancing at the Taylor Swift Now? All the people at our thing were
1:42
pretty lame, you know what to be topical because it just came out today
1:46
that Britney Spears hadn't justin Timberlake's abortion. Oh what Yeah, that just came
1:52
out today is going to be in her new memoir, The Woman in Me.
1:56
I'm going to be listening to it because Michelle Williams, not Dusty's child,
1:59
Michelle Williams, but also Creek. Michelle Williams is narrating the book.
2:02
Yeah, so I you could dress up for Halloween as the Love Child if
2:07
it wasn't a boring Yeah, I think that's crazy. Like the New like
2:10
a sidebar. This weekend has been like the news lately has been like heart
2:15
breaking and stressful for me lately. I just had to turn it off because
2:20
it's NonStop Brittany, It's NonStop Jada Pinkett Smith like it's it's been soul crushing
2:27
the news lately. I get it. Yeah, devastating. J Cole took
2:30
out a line when he did one of his songs today because in the song
2:34
he goes, uh, this weekend because in the song goes that Jada and
2:38
will love. But he took that line out of the song because that's a
2:40
little awkward. Now. It's sad when like the the guy who hits somebody
2:46
is not the most hated one in that relationship anymore. Right, Yeah,
2:50
I think her memoir should probably be entitled The Feet is Not in Me?
2:57
Oh, Britney Spears, Yeah, yeah, they're talking about Jada Pickett Smith's
3:00
new memoir. I don't know enough to get it. What I don't I
3:05
don't know Britney Spruce enough to get it. Her book has called The Woman
3:08
in Me. And then I thought it was baby one more time. I
3:15
thought the feed Okay, like justin Timberlake and Britney Spears when they were like
3:21
at the pinnacle of success having a love child, that baby would have been
3:25
probably awful maybe, but it could have been something. It could have been.
3:31
I guess it also could have been baby. Hitler's knows. Uh,
3:38
that's a pop rock. I'm good. So before we get started, h
3:43
Ali, you probably remember this episode, right, Oh? Yeah, uh,
3:46
Jeff, did you recall this episode? I watched the show a lot,
3:51
and I didn't remember this episode at all because you can't find it on
3:54
anything anywhere. It's not on Paramount Like it's a harmless episode, Like there's
4:00
there's no there's there, there can't be any reason why this would be eliminated
4:03
from it. Yeah, I know. I was getting so irritated. Paramount
4:08
Plus like sucks when it comes to like the Nickelodeon content. Yeah, and
4:12
they had like every other episode except for this one. So I had to
4:15
buy it on Prime because I wanted to watch it with my kids on the
4:17
TV or they is Paramount Plus the Nickelodeon vehicle for streaming, Well, I
4:23
think they own Nickelodeon, right, Yeah, it's a Viacom streaming, which
4:27
is CBS and Viacom and they own Nickelodeon, MTV, yeah, Comedy Central.
4:32
So but it is just weird, Like Salute Your Shorts is like two
4:36
seasons and there's only five episodes. Cloris is missing a ton of episodes and
4:43
it's like full seasons. I think, like it's just stupid. Yeah,
4:46
I don't get what they're gaining from not letting people watch it, Like I'm
4:49
gonna watch it less now because it's not on there. I don't know.
4:53
But anyways, well, uh cool, Well Ali you've seen this before,
4:58
Jeff, you haven't. Riah, I know you have seeing this because you
5:00
just said that a little bit ago. Let's just dive right into it,
5:03
right, all right? Okay, Well we start this episode with the scariest
5:12
music in TV history, because anybody else agree? I find it frightening.
5:15
Still as an adult, that's haunting. It is so haunting. I do
5:19
not like it. I don't like the imagery. I don't know how they
5:23
achieved, like the chanting effect, like the very echoe chanting towards the end
5:28
of the the intro song. But it's that's like extremely haunting. And then
5:33
like the imagery too, is if you're a kid, like, let's yeah,
5:39
pretty freaking like a weird doll in the attic for some reason, a
5:44
swing in a boat like what it just feels weird. Yeah, And I
5:48
completely understand when we were we were talking about Nickelodeon in a past episode when
5:53
they're like, wait, what do you want to do? You want to
5:55
scare kids? That doesn't make sense, but it works somehow, but it's
5:59
not. Yeah, I didn't pay attention to it in this one. But
6:01
in some episodes, I think you see the light, the match get lit,
6:06
and then and some you don't. Oh true, Yeah, they don't
6:10
want the idea of kids lighting matches. Oh so sometimes they actually like I
6:15
think in the early episode we did. I don't. I don't quote me
6:18
on this. I don't know for sure. But well after the scary intro,
6:23
the gang is hanging out around the fire and we're watching some little runk
6:27
get wrecked at arm wrestling. He swears he can win, but I doubt
6:30
it. Who's turners this week to tell the story? I hope it's anyone
6:33
but Sam. I bet her name is short for Saddam Hussein. Oh damn
6:39
it. It is Sam. Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society.
6:47
I call this story the Tale of the dream Girl. She starts telling a
6:58
story about a brother and sister, Johnny and Erica, two siblings that are
7:01
very close. They even work at the same bowling alley together. He fixes
7:04
the place up, and she is a waitress, perfect as usual. I'm
7:13
modest too. Did ever tell you're my favorite sister? I'm your only sister.
7:21
Damn this. Johnny is really good at bowling. He got two strikes
7:25
in a row. Me, not so good. My high is one hundred
7:28
and twenty, but that was with no bumper rails, so technically it's kind
7:31
of higher than one twenty if you think about it. Erica tells Johnny it's
7:35
time to go because the place is closing. Then they go to like a
7:39
locker room, which seemed odd to me. Why would a bowling alley need
7:42
a locker room? Anyway, Johnny finds a ring in his locker. He
7:46
instantly puts it on coming or what yeah, yeah, you put this indre.
7:51
Nope, it's a girl's ring. Oh it's stuck. Really great,
8:01
Now you can go study with yourself, which is one of the scariest things
8:05
I can imagine. I am so afraid of my fingers getting ripped off.
8:07
I don't think i'll ever get married. If I do get married, I
8:11
will get a tattoo instead of a physical ring, and the tattoo will say
8:16
wedding, wedding, what do you what do you think married? Nope,
8:22
don't rip my finger off. Close, it's gonna say rock and roll.
8:28
Well, no, Johnny can't take the ring off. I know something bad
8:30
is gonna happen that is literally my hell. The next scene, we joined
8:35
Erica and Johnny watching TV, and Johnny accidentally kind of sits on his sister's
8:39
head, which is really weird. I didn't you notice that when he gets
8:41
on the couch, she's like Johnny and his ass was like sitting on her
8:46
head. I don't. I think it was on accident, but I think
8:50
she just played it off because that would be a weird thing to add.
8:54
The mom comes and tells them to turn the TV off. There is school
8:58
tomorrow. So this episode premiered in March twenty six, nineteen ninety four.
9:03
But the mom says, you have school tomorrow and go to bed, So
9:05
the closest date to having school would have been March twenty fourth, that Thursday,
9:11
so they could have been watching Nickelodeon. And on that day on Nickelodeon
9:15
they had a Doug episode at seven pm and Rocking Bullwinkle at seven thirty pm,
9:18
so and then all the adult shows for niked night, so they were
9:22
probably watching that. I'm assuming yeah. Johnny tells Erica he is going to
9:26
stay and stay up and watch TV for a little bit. Johnny falls asleep
9:30
and starts hearing Johnny Johnny, where are you? There? You are,
9:41
Johnny, wake up? A beautiful, beautiful girl kisses him and he wakes
9:58
up. He probably woke up to l Night with Conan O'Brien. On March
10:01
twenty fourth, nineteen ninety four, Conan O'Brien had Eric Bogashin and Rich Hall
10:07
on and the band Grant Lee Buffalo. I don't think that's a real star
10:11
studded show, but I know who Rich hall is. He's like one of
10:13
It's like a Hollywood legend. I like Eric Bogosian looked. I even looked
10:20
at his picture. I didn't know who that was. He's in Lonard of
10:22
Criminal Intent. Oh okay, there we go. So that night they had
10:28
Conan on or on Conan, they had them on. So we're almost done
10:31
here, and then we'll start talking a little bit. So now we're at
10:33
the bowling Alley again, and the manager is very pleased with himself for not
10:37
hiring another maintenance guy. He's like really really proud of himself for not hiring
10:43
another maintenance person. He says he looks good because his books look good.
10:46
So I wasn't sure. Maybe this Bowling Alleys like a franchise or maybe he's
10:50
the manager and the owner of the bowling alley hired him. Don't know,
10:54
but I've never seen anybody that happy with themselves and in anything. It's crazy.
11:00
Give me a call it with Jerica, man, I am living a
11:05
charmed life. Really, Why just closed out another month without having to hire
11:11
another maintenance guy. We haven't had a breakdown in four months. The longer
11:16
I hold off hiring somebody, and the better my books look, the better
11:20
I look. Life is so sweet, thanks, sir. Johnny thinks he
11:31
sees the girl from his dreams getting bowling shoes and walks over there. Before
11:33
he talks to the girl, her friend fucking obliterates that manager. She has
11:37
for a size six, not a nine? Are his eyes upside down?
11:43
Burn? Also sixty nine? Nice? And how may I help you?
11:48
Ladies? I set a size six, not a size nine? What are
11:52
your eyes upside down? Someday? Johnny says, Hey, Cheryl. She
11:56
turns around in absolute disgust and says, does anyone hear anybody talking to me?
12:00
All her friends agree they do not hear anything. When the girls walk
12:03
off, the man manager says, must be great to be so perfect.
12:07
Mm hmm. I guess that's probably good spots to stop. Yeah, how's
12:13
everybody feeling about the episode so far? One little, one little detail that
12:18
you didn't mention was when the mom tells them to turn the TV off and
12:22
she Johnny says good night to her, but she ignores him. Oh that
12:26
is true. I called it like pretty early on that thing. Yeah.
12:31
I wanted to ask you guys, do you want to give away the ending
12:33
now or do we want to because there's some things here that I want to
12:37
talk about that happened here, but it will require talking about the ending.
12:43
I think we can talk about the ending now. Okay, well before we
12:46
do Midnight Society. This is like one of the most low stakes Midnight Society
12:50
intros ever, Like there's no like usually there's like some high end to the
12:54
story, you know, like they brought a prop or like they're just I'm
13:00
wrestling, Like there's no connection to like a love story or anything happening in
13:03
the in the Midnight Society, which I thought was interesting. So there's usually
13:07
a connection from this, from the story to the beginning scene. Yeah.
13:13
So every every week the Midnight Society one, it's one person's turn to tell
13:18
a story and so like there's like there's an episode like called Dangerous Soup,
13:24
which is just favorite episode, and they're all talking about like their fears,
13:28
like, well, this is what I'm afraid of, and that's what the
13:30
episode's about. And so usually there's like a tie in between what Midnight Society
13:33
is doing and the episode to just to set it up a bit. But
13:37
it was like that one. It was super quick, like nothing like,
13:41
oh uh, Tucker's a wous and now we're telling a story. Yeah,
13:46
right, Yeah, the Dangerous Soup episode. Did somebody bring like a thermois
13:48
of soup? No, they didn't. I wish they did, but they
13:54
were afraid of it. They literal like they're talking about like like tomato soup.
13:56
And then there's green bean soup. There's an episode called Dangerous Soup where
14:01
a chef is able to create a very tasty soup by distilling people's fears.
14:07
Yeah. Kempbell's in it. Yeah. And then the little twerp that loses
14:13
to arm wrestling. He's in Mean Girls. Oh, he plays Claudia.
14:18
I don't know her name of the show, but I'm Party of five.
14:22
Her name is Claudia. And then she is the girlfriend of the Guy from
14:26
the Dark, and then Claudia was in was in uh a Party of Five
14:31
with Nev Campbell. Yeah, I do. One of my favorite things about
14:35
every Midnight Society segment though, is when they set up the tail and there's
14:37
always that look like that you like, in this one, Gary gives it,
14:41
but like she's like and sometimes people die for it. And then he
14:45
like kind of like stares Gary, kind of the the nerd one with the
14:48
glasses. Yeah. And he's also Tucker's older brother. Oh really Yeah,
14:52
well Tucker's way cooler than Gary. You think after like ten episodes they wouldn't
14:58
be so like, oh shit, they're gonna tell scared story again. Yeah,
15:01
I go, here we go again. Anyways, But it's all they
15:05
do in the Woods is till scared and that's the point of the show.
15:09
But like, I never went into the Woods to do that, you know
15:11
what I mean. It is kind of a long way just to tell a
15:13
scary story. Yeah, it's before the Internet though. It's kind of cool
15:18
though, right, Oh, when I was the ritual of it and like
15:20
the space Yeah cool if you like smoked weed or something. When I was
15:26
a kid, like every time we had anywhere in the woods when I was
15:28
trying to make our own forts and stuff. So it's like kind of cool,
15:31
like you ever your own space as a little kid, So now I
15:33
think that, yeah, oh okay, so the siblings see, So my
15:37
thoughts on this section. The siblings seem a little bit too old to have
15:41
like a bedtime, Like I get like if they're causing rockets, Like I
15:46
don't want my kid to be like if my kid's sixteen or seventeen, they
15:48
need to be quiet and go to bed because I don't want them making noise
15:52
because I'm trying to sleep. But those kids seem like they have their shit
15:54
together. But we were in high school and like we had to like leave
15:58
by like seven am. Yeah you know, my dad told me, sure,
16:03
there's a concern of like get some sleep at least. Yeah. True.
16:06
Like my dad's rule when I was like a later teenager was if you're
16:11
not home by ten, don't come home because I don't want you waking me
16:15
up. And I was like, wonderful, Yeah that's fair. And then
16:19
oh, and then I was thinking about terminology that is not going to be
16:23
used any longer, and one of them was like channel surfing. True,
16:27
but that's something that like the kids today won't know about. And then when
16:33
the manager guy gets a drink and whatever, like all of these shows that
16:37
we've been watching lately, there's no ice in the soda. Yeah, it's
16:41
just like another Canadian series. Oh, like maybe this Canadians not use ice.
16:48
Maybe I wonder if maybe, like some of the condensations, so they
16:51
try to get like warm. So it looks I don't know, I have
16:52
no idea that the sound of the sound of ice. Oh that's true.
16:56
Yeah, I wonder why. Yeah, there's probably actual good reason for that
17:00
too, won't you say? No, do you have anything to say in
17:03
the segment? No, To be quite honest, I was trying to work
17:07
and watch this at the same time, so like I caught bits and pieces.
17:12
Yeah, okay, well okay, So to sort of give away the
17:17
ending, I guess we don't have to say it. But so it's established
17:19
that the brother what's his name again, Johnny Johnny. Yeah, So Johnny
17:26
works at the bowling Alley as the maintenance guy, and his sister works there
17:30
at the diner, and that manager knows about Johnny, yeah, I assume,
17:37
and is like rubbing in his sister in his sister's face. I don't
17:41
have to hire a maintenance guy. Like it's fucking awful, right, what
17:45
the fuck? Like it's really fucked up. And then there's also a scene
17:49
later where Johnny's running through the bowling alley and like obviously like he's a ghost,
17:56
and there's this scene where he's like walking in a kid is like walking
18:00
towards him, and he supposed like the if it was like great effects,
18:03
he'd walk through him. But in the timing of the episode and they kept
18:07
the shot, the kid like almost bumps into him and has to stop.
18:10
And it's so funny to me because it's like that was the take you kept.
18:14
Yeah, but like the number one, the girl that's whose ring it
18:19
is is not that cute. I'm with the end, don't everything The one
18:23
that he thinks is her, she's even worse like nothing against like the hunchback
18:29
of Notre Dame than she thinks. He just thinks that she looks like her.
18:33
Yeah, I don't know, Like yeah, but by point being that
18:37
those ugly girls they heard him, maybe a whisper of him, so maybe
18:42
he like can maybe certain people can see him. Yeah, that's one thing
18:47
I wasn't sure if maybe his sister had like special powers, or maybe the
18:49
power was just their connection, the sibling connection. They didn't really go into
18:53
that. One is the only person that sees him Yeah, yeah, which
18:56
is kind of weird because she's like yelling in a diner Johnny like, yeah,
19:00
it's like everybody just like she's still grieving. Like while watching Super Alone.
19:08
Yeah, while watching this, I was like, well, we can't
19:11
really break it up because if you think about it too much, just there's
19:14
too many things that would yeah, you know, yeah, I think this
19:18
is one that you can't, like, like, it's hard to rewatch this
19:21
one knowing the ending, right, like if you haven't seen it before,
19:23
like you're either suspicious, like, well it must be this twist or you
19:26
didn't expect it, right, Yeah, exactly. Yeah, but as soon
19:30
as you know it, it's just kind of like yeah, and then you
19:33
just have to accept a kind of like fight Club, it's like, okay,
19:34
well, the first time watching fight Club, it's really cool, and
19:37
then like when you really think about it, you're like, well, no,
19:38
it's kind of you know, yeah, but uh, both of these
19:41
kids, though, I think they act Their acting was perfect, you know
19:45
it wasn't like you know Brad Pittter, you know Leo status. But I
19:48
thought they were both really good for kids shows. I think between the two
19:52
of them, yeah, they've like they have like good chemistry between the two
19:56
of them, like they they seem convincing his brethren sister. Oh yeah,
20:00
yeah, and a lot of times, because I think acting is like when
20:03
you don't talk, that's like the biggest part of acting. There was only
20:06
one time when I saw Johnny and I was like, oh, that was
20:07
a little forced, but okay whatever. But the little sister though, I
20:11
thought she did great face acting, like when she was upset, when the
20:15
manager was being a dick, or just little things when like Johnny was like,
20:18
oh, I think it's this girl, and then she kind of knew,
20:21
like, oh I know who that was, and then you could just
20:22
see the her exactly. Yeah. I thought they did great so far.
20:26
Based on Goosebumps. In this one, I wonder what the budget was because
20:30
this one feels a lot more fleshed out, like it's just better. I
20:33
thought it was better production, better acting, better sound. Pilot was a
20:38
pilot. Oh that was a plot that's very true. Yeah, yeah,
20:41
but also too I'd be willing to bet that they spent most of their money
20:45
on the effects then like the acting or the you know what I mean.
20:49
Like, but some of the camera work in this episode is is honestly pretty
20:53
bad for an Army Afraid of the Dark episode. Oh, especially the graveyard
20:57
scene is really like not great camera war. That graveyard set looks like the
21:03
setiest set I've ever seen, Like you can tell it's it's it's a really
21:07
good set, but it doesn't look real. It's like, oh, that's
21:10
a really good set. Yeah. I would say like the strongest points of
21:12
this episode are the story and the acting. I did think it was cutey.
21:18
His sister looks like Haley Steinfeld. Oh, I thought the sister looked
21:22
like a young Valerie Burtonelly from One Day at a time she was married to
21:27
Van Halen. But she is cute. Well, like she's not like you
21:33
have to show every actress of the you have to shoot on every actress,
21:38
just not Campbell. Campbell's amazing. No, I'm just gonna say, like,
21:44
like it's realistic that they would cast them as brother and sister because like
21:48
he's obviously more attractive than she is and That's how it is with siblings.
21:52
A lot of times there's like one like ass ugly one, and then there's
21:56
one that's more attractive. Are you to compare yourself to Jesse? No,
22:02
I'm compared. I don't. I don't think you're asked ugly. Thank you.
22:04
No, I'm not the Valerie Burtnell. I'm the Johnny Johnny. He's
22:11
a really tracked, very hated his hair though that wasn't around, But yeah,
22:15
no, I I as soon as the manager guy moved, I was
22:19
like, and then Johnny's like right there, like getting just like like slaid
22:23
all day. Like I was like, oh, he's a ghost. And
22:26
then I'm like when did this come out? So I googled it and then
22:30
I was like, oh my gosh, this came out before the sixth sense.
22:33
So did the sixth cent steal this? I think so? Yeah.
22:38
M Night Shamalan was interviewed about it. He denied even knowing never watching.
22:42
Are You Afraid of the Dark? Oh? He was asked about this episode,
22:48
Oh wow, because it's almost the same twist. Yeah, oh,
22:51
m Night Shyamalan like, I'm sure he's a little steeler. Yeah. Everyone
22:55
borrows from everything. Any of the movies. What everyone borrows from everything,
23:00
but also in Quentin Tarantino, like borrows from like you know what, Korean
23:03
films and stuff like he yeah, but also like I've never seen this episode,
23:10
and I wouldn't. So like if I was to write a movie and
23:12
write this twist and then be asked about it, I'd be like, of
23:17
course I didn't see this because because I didn't well, but also I never
23:23
I have never seen it. I've escaped my two years of life. Did
23:29
you know the twist ending? I did? I guess the twist? Yeah?
23:34
Like one time I started a band called the Metallica. I had no
23:37
idea there was a band called so you Don't Red Metallica with the Metallica.
23:47
When we were talking about doing this episode, I remember saying I watched this
23:49
when I was in first grade. I was six years old. This came
23:53
out in nineteen ninety four when I was six. I there's a very good
23:57
chance I saw the premiere of this. Cool, right, that's crazy.
24:02
Yeah. We joined Johnny trying to fix something while holding two wrenches at one
24:06
time. It's a miracle nothing has broken down in four months. He hears
24:10
someone say Johnny, and who can it be the girl from his dreams?
24:15
He starts to follow her, but loses her quickly. Now, Johnny's at
24:18
home, chilling on the couch when his mom drops a letter. He reads
24:22
a letter and it says meet me at the Bowling Alley at midnight. He
24:25
tells his sister and she informs him the Bowling Alley will be closed at that
24:29
time. What the fuck he works there? He already knows, so that
24:33
was information, didn't exactly? Yeah, is this the scene where she holds
24:38
that piece of pate like the article? Not yet he comes it's right after
24:42
Yeah, And the way she's holding it, it's like a magic trip.
24:45
That's so. Yeah. He shows up and the night shift is working.
24:52
They all look like nineteen forty extras in a Humphrey Bogot movie with old timey
24:56
music playing too. That time you showed up, What are you doing here?
25:04
This place is supposed to be closed closed. Never let's just say we're
25:11
the night shift. He looks nice. While he was waiting, the waitress
25:18
says, here's a soda and apple pie all the mode. I loved this
25:21
part because he thought it was really weird. But the way he was like
25:23
all right, and the way he started drinking the soda. I like that
25:26
little acting that he did. I was like, that's that seems legit,
25:29
like it seems real. A half hour goes by and the girl finally shows
25:33
up. Women right, Johnny? I uh, I hope I'm not late.
25:52
I thought you weren't gonna show. I'd never stand you up. Oh
25:59
I can't. You're wearing my ring? This is yours? How did you?
26:06
Let's dance? Uh? He finds out the ring he is wearing is
26:10
her ring. They start dancing, and the waitress looks like she is enjoying
26:14
it a little too much approval. Yeah, and I put it was like
26:19
creepy, but like pervy creepy. I feel bad for the line cook,
26:23
like eternity as a line cook. Yeah, you really enjoy cooking. Uh
26:33
wait, now there's a time limit and they have to leave. He doesn't
26:36
understand, and to be honest, either do I yeah? Yeah. He
26:38
chases her, but he is too slow again, and everyone basically disappears.
26:47
Who are you? What do you know me? You must know you're wearing
26:53
my ring. It's almost time to go. I want you to come with
27:02
me where you just got here. But it's almost time. Better hurry,
27:15
Oh it's too late, too late. I'll wait for you, Johnny,
27:19
Wait for what do you think it's the time that they died. Oh,
27:29
that's the time. Like I don't think it was, Like she should have
27:34
just made it clear, like, hey, we used to date. I
27:37
died, you died. Your sister is keeping you here, Like she should
27:41
have just said it. She didn't need to be played with my games.
27:45
Now, I think it might be the time they died because when later on
27:48
and when he falls asleep every time he sees her at night time except for
27:52
the one time he's working, well, no, I don't know. I
27:55
don't know. I just seemed like they kept going at the clock and I
27:57
just like and like it felt like it was fleeting and so yeah, yeah,
28:03
I just assumed that was like the time that their time of death.
28:04
But anyway, that's a good one. Yeah. So now we're back at
28:08
their house and Erica shows Johnny a newspaper article she located showing that the girl
28:14
was killed in a car accident with her boyfriend. Johnny is trying his hardest
28:17
to get the ring off. Oh and the way, okay, this is
28:19
what you're talking about, the way she's holding that newspaper article. I've seen
28:22
so many magic tricks where they hold it like that. I'm like, oh,
28:26
what's gonna happen? Oh man, you're not gonna believe this. She
28:30
was there, Donna med me. But wait before you say anything else,
28:37
is this the girl you've been seeing? Yeah? Yeah, Dona donea Maitland.
28:41
What's doing? She's dead, Johnny what? She died in a car
28:47
accident. She was driving with her boyfriend and their car stalled on these railroad
28:57
tracks just out by Waterloo Road. They both got out, but Johnna forgot
29:03
her ring, this school ring that her boyfriend had just given her, so
29:08
she went back to get it, and the train came, like having the
29:15
reveal, like she's ready, like she's like she's prepared for this, you
29:18
know. Yeah, and then I just it's not It doesn't look like a
29:22
newspaper article. Like I guess she could have made a copy, like on
29:25
a piece of paper, but yeah, it just felt it seems strange.
29:29
Yeah, the paper looked really thick too. It looked like fake paper.
29:30
I don't know, it's weird. That reminds me of a I was just
29:36
on the Star Trek TG podcast and we were talking about this episode where they're
29:41
not sure if Picard has a kid or not, and the way Beverly Crusher
29:44
does it, she goes, well, it's half DNA of his mom and
29:48
the other half DNA of usual on Luke Picart. It's like imagine if like
29:52
you were the captain, though, you'd be like, what the fuck was
29:55
that about? Just tell me, like, I don't have time for this.
29:56
I gotta figure this anyways, just the way she was Maury on that
30:00
episode a Star Trek, That's what it seemed like. That's it seemed like,
30:04
Yeah, was it an accidental pregnancy, No, it's it's long.
30:08
Basically, it really wasn't his kid. Oh so she she knew that,
30:14
well, she said that her or she said that his father not Picard's,
30:18
but the son was somebody in Starfleet and he hooked up with her about twenty
30:22
four years ago, which he was about twenty three at the time. So
30:26
if he's not the father, how many Star for the people did she hook
30:30
up with good for? And then it's at a world that's not very populated
30:33
and he was the captain. So Picard probably knows the father because they probably
30:37
had leave there or something. I don't know. They don't go into it
30:40
that deep, but I've been if I was some like kind of you know,
30:44
sludy lady then I and I got knocked up, I would just be
30:48
like, yeah, Joe Biden's my baby's dad, Like I would just why
30:51
not just yeah, that's like us. Have anybody have any of you heard
30:56
that Jimmy Butler's dad might be Michael Jordan. No, Jimmy Butler that Well,
31:03
then I looked it up, so he was in uh, Texas,
31:07
and that he was born in Texas and the time frame when he would have
31:11
when his mom would have been, you know, knocked up, fucking Michael
31:15
Jordan was in Texas right around that time. Okay, his hair I love
31:22
more than anything. So good, so good, so amazing. Yeah,
31:27
and then like like delicately like with the finger like moves it. Yeah,
31:33
I like just thank thankful that that exists. For sure, he's dating Shakira.
31:41
What Jimmy Butler's dating Shakira? I don't know, but why did you
31:45
say that? Alright, Uh so it's definitely not but I I just assumed
32:01
it was Shakira. So she shows him the newspaper articles showing that she died
32:05
with her boyfriend in a car. Now we're back at the bowling alley and
32:08
Johnny is trying his hardest to get the ring off by putting grease all over
32:12
his hand. Oh no, the girl is spooking him again, saying she
32:15
wants Johnny to go with her. What the fuck? Spooky? He tells
32:20
her to get lost and to take the ring with her. Back at the
32:22
house, Johnny is freaking out and making Erica nervous. The phone rings,
32:27
and you guessed it, it's the ghost girl. Assuming they're using AT and
32:30
T to call. It's weird that ghosts can use the phone. He tells
32:36
the bitch off for good. This time. He says stuff like, hey,
32:38
bitch, you're fucking with the wrong one. Leave me alone. Are
32:43
you gonna get this heat? Uh? Okay, not really. He doesn't
32:46
really say that, but it's pretty close. She says that she is actually
32:50
gonna leave him alone. He instantly feels regret and says all she needs is
32:52
her ring. He says he might know where to find her. You guessed
32:55
it, fred Myers just kidding. After Freddy's they go to the cemetery.
33:02
Johnny trips and falls right on the cemetery where she was buried. Erica starts
33:08
explaining to Johnny the reason he knew where the grave was is because he was
33:13
the boyfriend in the car crash. Erica explained, she is the only one
33:15
that could see him, and after the accident he actded like nothing happened,
33:19
when in fact, something did happen. He got in a car accident.
33:23
He knew exactly where she was buried. Johnny, why do you think that
33:27
is? Look, I know what you mean. Maybe you've been here before.
33:31
Did you ever think about that? Oh? Wait, why would I
33:35
have been here? I'm minute to cemetery. Why don't you tell me,
33:37
Johnny? You remember what happened? The car stolled on the tracks right,
33:49
and then Donna got out, but she forgot her ring, her school ring.
33:53
It went running back for it. Uh. Donna appear as an Erica
34:00
knows what that means and has to say goodbye to her brother. And that's
34:05
also when Andy starter crying and my daughters. Yeah, I don't think I
34:15
can stay. I know you would talk, have a log together. It's
34:28
time, Johnny go after her. You don't want to loser again. I'm
34:37
really gonna miss you, you know, you're my favorite sister. I'm your
34:45
only sister. Come my, Johnny, I love you. I love it
35:01
too. They're goodbye. I thought was very beautiful. Johnny follows Donna to
35:09
where we can Johnny follows Donna to where we can only assume as hell I
35:15
feel like they had premarital sex. So good luck, Burning and Helly Sinners.
35:20
That's the end of the episode. So we're just a religious podcast now.
35:28
Yeah, also just another like the ending, very quick, abrupt midnight
35:35
society segment. Usually there's some antics or something, but yeah, it's just
35:39
I think it's just like the story was too good and they didn't need to
35:42
add anything weird to it. So there are rumors that Shakira is dating and
35:47
Inger Gerald Butler or Butler Gerald, Gerald Butler, Jimmy but the football guy
35:55
or baseball Jimmy Butler. Yeah, John Butler. So there's rumors that they're
36:00
dating. But I if I was him, I don't know anything about him.
36:05
So I'm assuming he's a good basketball player if like you're talking about him,
36:07
Yeah, he's pretty good. But she is getting in charge with like
36:12
tax fraud or tax like not paying like seven million dollars in taxes so maybe
36:16
like he needs to, like he not with deal with that match. He
36:22
took a pay cut and he's still making like sixteen million a year or something
36:25
like that, twenty million years, so he could bail her out. I
36:28
mean, he could definitely afford it. She's so hot. I define I
36:32
would if I had that money, I'd be like, it's cool, Shakira.
36:36
My hips don't lie either. Yeah, I don't know you can if
36:37
you're that because you think she's hot. I think she is super hot.
36:42
But if you add like sixteen million dollars a year, you could just get
36:45
like prostitutes. Yeah, but that's only just basketball contract that that doesn't include
36:49
like you know, Nike deals or whatever other deals he has going or other
36:52
businesses. So he's started to make her life all right. So I was
36:55
thinking about this that it sucks that they get buried together. Yeah Johnny and
37:05
Donna, and uh, like that seems not appropriate, right, Yeah,
37:13
but maybe we don't know how long they were dating for. So what if
37:15
they like fell in up when they were like twelve or something, and then
37:19
you know, both their parents, their families are really close, you know,
37:21
everything like that, so maybe and they're like they did love each other.
37:23
I did hate how he just like conveniently moved the leaves down just to
37:29
just just below her name, you know, to have that reveal. But
37:31
like any kid would just be like move them all out of the way,
37:36
right, Yeah, especially with something like this going on. Yeah, you're
37:39
being haunted in the middle of the night, and you're just like, ah,
37:42
I don't want to move too many fucking leaves. Yeah. I was
37:46
like, there was there is no way that I would let my child be
37:51
buried with another child, right or yeah, in the same plot, like
37:57
right next to each other. Yeah, but I mean when yeah, I
38:00
don't know. After the twelve thirty thing though, when he comes back from
38:04
the bowling all and he's pacing back and forth. Uh, when she's like
38:07
we calm down, Johnny, he goes, okay, well, when you
38:09
get haunted by a ghost girl, let me tell how you feel. That's
38:13
pretty funny. Yeah, Like I thought it was good acting. And again,
38:15
both of them together just felt real fluid, like they're just legit.
38:19
How long was he and Donna dead? Four months? I think it said
38:24
so. Did he not realize that he wasn't getting paid? See, That's
38:28
why I was like, once you know it and you think about it,
38:30
there's too many flaws because then he'd be like, hey, uh yeah,
38:34
yeah, like how can he physically like lift bowling pins and balls and like
38:37
yeah, it would not be seen like you'd see to see like equipment and
38:42
ship floating like like that manager would be freaked out, especially at the beginning
38:46
when he's bowling strikes and uh, Erica's just standing there behind him, like
38:52
they'd be like, how is she be throwing those balls? It'd be funnier
38:57
if like they just like if he didn't go with her and then like everyone's
39:00
like that ball is rolling by itself, Like no, it's just Johnny yea.
39:05
Like they just know he exists as a ghost in the in the world.
39:07
But then he gets older too and he never can't really get another job,
39:10
so then he has to be the ghost ghost manager. That'd be a
39:14
good name of a TV show. They just like, I need to pay
39:16
ghosts salary a living way because that's a living wage. But no, I
39:25
thought it was great. Yeah, I loved this episode. I got a
39:28
ETE point nine rating. I hate children dying. Yeah that is one universe.
39:35
Yeah they're not. They're called sex workers by the way, Jeff,
39:39
what ghosts? Oh? When I say hookers or there you go? Sex
39:47
work? Oh? Yeah, sex workers doesn't care. I care the oldest
39:57
job in the world. Yeah. I did find one wh you that I
40:00
thought actually kind of summed it up perfectly how I felt about it. Okay.
40:02
It's called one of the greatest episodes of the series by Tom a freak
40:09
Tom a freak. Uh. In a series with so many truly unforgettable episodes,
40:15
this one, this is one that sticks out. It's both tragic and
40:21
sweet by the Andrew and tears because you're conflicted with both feelings of sadness and
40:23
happiness for the characters. When the show has managed to make you care so
40:28
much, that's when you know it's a winner. And for the show only
40:31
being twenty two minutes long, they legit made me care about the brother's sister
40:36
connection. So when she did have to say goodbye and you can tell that
40:38
she was so fucking hurt that she has say goodbye to her brother, Oh,
40:43
it was so beautiful and sad. Yeah, it was really well done.
40:46
What do you think, rhya? Okay, I mean it's definitely better
40:51
than Goosebumps, sure, like a thousand Yeah, like a lot of ways,
40:55
right. I feel like this one might have been for a little bit
41:00
older crowd because it did come out at like nine ish nine pm, So
41:02
maybe I don't know when Goosebumps aired, but I feel like it was for
41:06
a little bit older crowd, and I think it shows quite a bit.
41:08
I watched the episode of Goosebumps, the news series, but the the same
41:15
one that we did the haunted Mask thingy, oh, Justin Long, So
41:20
they're redoing those episodes. Oh yeah, it's a little bit different, but
41:23
it's the same thing but definitely scarier. I love Justin Long. Yeah,
41:27
no. I like that he's like gained a little bit of weight too,
41:30
Like he's got a little like like a little muff to the top, and
41:32
I like that. I've had like four people message me and they go,
41:36
hey, the new Goosebump's really good because we do a nineties podcast. All
41:38
my friends are like, okay, you'd like this. So I'm like thanks.
41:40
I love Justin Long, so I don't I'm not like in love with
41:44
him, but like, yeah, he looks like a like a poorly animated
41:49
cartoon character that gets brought to life. Like well, his podcast is great
41:53
because he's so nervous that even when he's like interviewing people, he like stutters
41:58
and stuff. I don't know, I just love him as a person.
41:59
I think he's really cool. I think the thing I appreciate most between like
42:04
if we're comparing Goosebumps and are AFRAI the Dark? Goosebumps feels very much like
42:08
kind of like Monster of the Week and like it's only focused on like really
42:14
scary whereas like Are You Afraid of the Dark has like really great range of
42:19
like different stories and stuff. And I think, you know, Goosebumps were
42:23
looking like there's a comparison of like an hour episode versus like the twenty minute
42:29
episode or whatever. So they have to tell they have to tell more stories.
42:32
I guess, but I don't know. I just appreciate that range of
42:36
just like, yeah, this is like a love story, you know,
42:37
there's like this entail problem queen, and but then you can have like really
42:42
scary shit like tale laughing in the dark with like a clown, or there's
42:46
like werewolf ones and stuff. So I just I think it's a cool like
42:52
anthology. I guess, yeah, but there are very very bad episodes of
42:55
Very Afraid of the Dark too. Oh, I bet for sure, like
42:58
really bad. I mean, I would say though the Goosebumps tries to do
43:01
that, like the whole I mean, it didn't do it well, but
43:06
like it was like you don't hate yourself. Yeah, I guess like Carly
43:09
Beth did have like an interesting arc. Yeah, but I don't know anyways,
43:16
Yeah, I don't know. I think they were just ones gil geared
43:19
for smaller kids and ones for older and I think that's yeah. I think
43:22
that's the biggest difference. But this one, I do feel like is on
43:25
a whole different level than Goosebumps. Like I just thought it was better overall.
43:28
Okay, yeah, of oh but another really quick sorry another. So
43:36
sometimes like when I'm watching stuff like this, and you know, I've showing
43:38
my daughters. If it's not something really important, they might get on their
43:42
phone or whatever. But once a week we have movie night and then they
43:44
pick a movie. Nobody will be on their phone. I pick a movie
43:45
anyways, but this is whatever. So the first like two or three minutes,
43:49
they're kind of on their phone to do, but then they get real
43:52
really invested and they didn't look at their phone for the whole twenty two minutes
43:57
and then at the end when they had to say good madd He's like and
44:01
then afterwards she goes, well, all right, well that was not what
44:04
I was expecting because that's begetting so scary and then they feel those emotions like
44:07
that, like it was really well done. So I love this episode.
44:12
The music is pretty bad. That saxophone music they choose, it's pretty bad.
44:17
Yeah, some of that music does till real nineties, but probably like
44:25
it looked kind of like a Michael Bolton video. And when they were kissing
44:28
in the nave round and stuff, and I was like, okay, but
44:30
you know what, can't they do that, like not with the sisters right
44:34
there? It's yeah, that is true. Yeah, it wasn't like they
44:38
were like making now. They just had like like okay kiss you know,
44:44
like a weddings. I'm like, oh, I can't get some other time.
44:46
I just start rolling around in the ground like this is more for Ria
44:53
than you guys, because I don't think you've either of you have seen this.
44:55
But Johnny the actor's name is like fab Fabioli or something like really strange
45:01
name. Yeah, fab Philippo, Thank you, Fab Philippo. He directed
45:06
fourteen episodes of sort of. Oh yeah, sort of this really great Canadian
45:13
series. Another Canadian series. Yeah that HBO picked up about a non binary
45:19
person. It's just very good. It's interesting. Mm hmm. I loved
45:23
the Prime Minister of Canada. He's so attractive. The one who does blackface?
45:30
Oh god, wow wow. Yeah, Okay, we're against him,
45:34
but I was actually gonna address the face for this Halloween and just tell people.
45:37
I'm like, it's just andy. During the summer, I'm just a
45:39
little darker. I forgot that he did that. That was really bad.
45:44
Yeah, but whenever you're saying that I'm such a horrible person, just remember
45:47
I've never done blackface. Well no, remember last week last week? And
45:57
I didn't you like that was so long ago. Anyways, I but uh,
46:07
other are you afraid of the Dark episodes? Like I'm sorry you're excluding
46:09
this question, but like of other episodes, like do you do you enjoy
46:14
this one more than the others? Like can you? I guess we did
46:17
rank our I know, we just did our most memorable Like where where would
46:21
you feel? Like? This is like uh in that are you afraid of
46:22
the Dark Pantheon? For me, this is the best. I think this
46:25
is the best. Okay, I think it's great. I don't like being
46:29
too scared. There was no moment at all that this was like scary.
46:32
There's parts where it's like, oh, I wonder what's gonna happen, But
46:36
it was really good. It's worth watching. Okay. I thought it was
46:40
cute, Like I don't, I don't think of it. It was like
46:45
from the episodes I recall if Are You Afraid of the Dark, it's kind
46:49
of like, you know, like does that girl who told the story?
46:52
Even though I know it's like writers that write it, but does that girl
46:55
always tell like more like lovey ones? Oh? Yeah? Do they all
46:59
have like kind of their own style of like who picks the story? Yeah?
47:02
They do tend to have like a more different like certain styles of horror
47:07
stories and stuff. I bet the nerd one, I bet his are the
47:09
best. They are usually like magic related. Yeah, that makes sense,
47:15
magic the gathering he's like, and then you get a Feracian snowbe so that
47:20
gives you two Manna nerd. I bet he's doing something like is he do
47:24
you know what he's doing for work right now? Ali? Yeah, he's
47:28
a weather man. Oh and he has two very cute dogs that you know
47:34
a lot about. Gary. Yeah, that his name on the show.
47:39
More handsome now, like good look, it was like Jeff was like,
47:49
I guess I'll look. It's hard for me to google things because now I
47:52
just tell Siri to google it. Hey, Siri, show me a picture
47:55
of Gary from Are You Afraid of the Dark Show? Yeah? Yeah,
48:00
yeah, yeah, I fuck it. I hope that he's better looking now.
48:06
Jesus, he looks like a penguin, and not a sexy penguin.
48:12
Right, are there sexy penguins? You know what? When I usually when
48:16
I talk to Alexa or what, I can't do this right now. I'm
48:19
sure I'll take your word for it that he's better looking now. Oh wow,
48:22
he is, like that's Gary. Yeah, he looks just like an
48:28
older version of himself, which makes sense. But he hasn't changed at all,
48:31
but just older. It's weird. I think I hit my peak at
48:35
around like twenty five. That was like my jam, but now it's just
48:38
like downhill from here. Anyways, cool podcast. Well, what should you
48:46
rate it? I'll do as a kid thing, as all kids stuff.
48:50
I'm gonna give this a nine out of ten. For kids, TV movie
48:53
or whatever. I thought it was great. Now I'll give it a three
48:58
out of five stars. Yeah, probably three out of five is middling but
49:06
not terrible. Yeah, I think overall, seven and a half out of
49:09
ten it's a good It's a good episode of TV. Yeah. M hmm.
49:15
It's not my favorite of the fur the Darks, but I mean it
49:21
is objectively a solid episode of THEIRS. Mhm, wait, so really quick,
49:25
we Alrea talking about this. So the sister has that folded piece of
49:29
paper. The article unfolds it once and then unfolds it again reveal they might
49:36
as well played like du well. I thought that kind of added to the
49:39
writing actually, because the character, because she is I feel like kind of
49:44
torn apart sometimes when like somebody's not paying attention her face, like when the
49:47
mom doesn't answer the manager, she looks hurt, and so I think part
49:51
of the characters her going like fuck, I should tell him so maybe and
49:55
go to the next world. But then I lose my brother and I love
49:58
him. So it's like that that fight between within herself. That that's why
50:01
I thought it was so great. It's just I love that he's probably like
50:06
frustrated because he's not getting it? Yeah, you know, like, how
50:10
are you not getting this? Like? What do I have to do to
50:12
make it make sense for you? I think I rewatched this episode just see
50:16
if there's those clues. I know, because as soon as I like called
50:21
it, I was just like my arms were crossed and I was like,
50:23
I got this. I'm such a badass. All right? Anybody have any
50:32
other thoughts? Nah? Not really? Do you guys want to do another
50:38
edition of Who Said It? Yeah? Yeah? All right? Oh my
50:45
god, Jeff sidebar I got divorced. But it's cute because I'm gay.
50:55
I'm slip my wrists excited. I'm Jeff. And now it's time for who
51:04
said it? Donald Trump or Jeff? All right? Cool? All right,
51:09
so round one. I'll each read you a quote. You need to
51:12
tell me. Is it Donald Trump or is it Jeff Andy? Yes,
51:16
your quote? Who cares about the environment? They're dropping bombs all over the
51:20
place. Oh, that has to be Trump? That is correct? Ah
51:25
Rhea. In high school, I was friends with some ugly fucking people and
51:29
I'm gorgeous. Oh, I mean that's Jeff. But I was not one
51:34
of those ugly fucking people. No, you weren't, all right, Jeff,
51:38
Sorry, losers and haters of uh Jeff your quote. Sorry losers and
51:44
haters, but my IQ is one of the highest, and you all know
51:46
it. Please don't feel so stupid or insecure. It's not your fault.
51:51
I think that's Trump. That is Trump, Yeah, because I don't think
51:53
I've bragged about my intelligence. All right, Andy, run two and referencing
52:01
Megan Kelly. She is so average in so many ways, Jeff, that
52:10
was Trump. I can see that, though I don't know who Making Kelly
52:15
is. She's like, oh, I thought I honestly thought it was maybe
52:21
someone on Beverly Hills or but I was like, but I could see Trump
52:23
saying something about an actress. Okay, all right, Riha Sarah Jessica Parker
52:30
is as ugly and fucking disgusting out of context though, sure, Jeff your
52:44
quote windmills are driving whales crazy, they're driving them. I think a little
52:47
baddie, that's Trump. That is Donald Trump. And all right, last
52:54
round, Andy quote I probably wouldn't eat a kid. I have to go
53:02
with Jeff on that one. That is Jeff, Oh, thank god,
53:07
that's probably I want to know what the what that was about all right,
53:15
right, you're ready. Yeah, your quote. If I'm sitting down and
53:17
that boat starts going down, and I'm on top of a battery and the
53:21
water starts flooding in, I'm getting concerned. But then I look ten yards
53:24
to my left and there's a shark over there. So I have a choice
53:27
between electrocution and a shark. You know what I'm gonna take. I'm going
53:30
to take extra electrocution every time. Oh Jesus, that's what's so direct.
53:40
Trump. It's Trump. The only thing that gave me that was Trump was
53:45
the yards. I don't think. I don't think you do measurement. That's
53:49
a weird measurement for Jeff. I don't believe in measuring Jeff. You're quote
53:54
nobody cared about diversity in the nineties. I'm not saying that me. That
54:00
was you. That's not a problematic quote, you know, it's honest.
54:07
Yeah. I feel like if we did this with any person and Trump,
54:10
it would be the same result. Right, Yeah, maybe, Andy,
54:20
What are the scores, because I have a tiebreaker? Two? Three,
54:22
three? Who has the and Jeff? You and Jeff again? Oh wait,
54:28
Ria and Jeff. Yep, they have three Okay, so Rie and
54:31
Jeff, I'm gonna read a quote and then say your name, and then
54:35
if you're right, you win. If you're wrong, the other wins.
54:37
You ready referencing the fifties? Okay, back in the days when houses were
54:44
clean, Ria Trump, it was Jeff, Oh that's so funny. What
54:54
when referencing the fifties? Jeff, you said, back in the days when
54:58
houses were clean? What does that mean the women were at home doing all
55:05
the housework? Is that what that was referencing? Oh, that's funny,
55:08
that's not good. And this specific episode, Andy was describing what soap operas
55:14
were. Oh yeah, back in the day when houses that's horrible. Yeah,
55:29
alright, I guess Jeff you want shop? Thank you? Oh that's
55:35
funny. I do be old because if if the quote was like who said
55:40
it? Uh huh, like Pete and Pete is my favorite showlodean. That's
55:52
funny. I have a thing about like I want to talk about how like
55:55
Trump have you guys had has anybody seen the new uh pop? They're like
56:00
many titsy pops but the stick is still the same size, but the pop
56:06
is smaller. But I don't know. All right, you know that's good

56:31
the listeners that are blind. Well there is another quote, Well, how
56:44
would they text you? No deaf ones? I mean well, they probably
56:46
woudn't listen to begin with. This should be do like this in Braille.
56:52
I don't understand, like there's something there. You literally can't turn it well
57:02
for me personally, Oh damn it. Remember when Trump was talking about Marcainey
57:08
goes, I like soldiers that weren't That's one of the ones I'm going to
57:13
use. Oh it's like, yeah, I like people that can actually like

good. Yeah, you're doing good. I appreciate you, and you should
58:43
really appreciate yourself. And I know that we've discussed, you know, starting
58:47
to paint rocks because I saw on Instagram this like kind of pens that you
58:52
can paint on rocks. So I hope that you're doing that because I think
58:57
that'd be fun. So if you're not doing it, maybe you should look

59:04
but look into it more. I just like, I just gotta figure

out where to get these rocks at Where do I get rocks? Like?

Can you just take them from like the Like, yeah, if I go
59:15
to the park, can I just take rocks? I bet you could.
59:17
Up until a point like after like two tons of rocks, I'd be like,
59:22
hey, if I have like a couple like Safeway bags of rocks,
59:24
