- 0:47Speaker 1: on the video stream as well, YouTube, Twitter and X
- 0:51Speaker 1: and Facebook getting a lot of action. And then Nick
- 0:53Speaker 1: leelat dot com talking text line a lot of good
- 0:55Speaker 1: a reaction to the things we're talking about.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Obviously, smoking the.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Air in Wisconsin today an issue, obviously, but we're talking
- 1:02Speaker 1: about that, talking about bucket list places to go and
- 1:06Speaker 1: talking about the World Cup match yesterday and what that
- 1:08Speaker 1: type of devastation would be. Wisconsin sports fanatic chiming in
- 1:12Speaker 1: during the break bucket list Sofi Stadium for the Super
- 1:14Speaker 1: Bowl and the Packers against the Dolphins. Now, Drew, I
- 1:16Speaker 1: don't know if you're allowed to pick the teams too,
- 1:19Speaker 1: but why not, We'll let you do it today.
- 1:20Speaker 2: Well cares you know? Sure?
- 1:22Speaker 1: So talking about that so he'll see also will take
- 1:25Speaker 1: another toke. Yes, it is smoky today.
- 1:27Speaker 4: It is smoky. It's awful. It's in the back of
- 1:31Speaker 4: the throat. It's just aggravating, and it's a haze out there.
- 1:35Speaker 4: Turn your lights on, folks can't see you. So I've
- 1:39Speaker 4: had this idea for a long time because it's one
- 1:42Speaker 4: of the core principles of this show. We got a
- 1:45Speaker 4: couple of core principles. Ninety percent of being a sportsman
- 1:48Speaker 4: is getting kicked in the nuts and ten percent is
- 1:50Speaker 4: enjoying it. That's why you gotta savor the ten percent.
- 1:52Speaker 4: If you're an Argentina fan, savor If you're an England fan,
- 1:55Speaker 4: you got the Mexico game. You got to win that
- 1:57Speaker 4: one and then you just got kicked in the nads yesterday,
- 2:00Speaker 4: losing after leading in the eighty fifth minute one. Nothing right,
- 2:04Speaker 4: And that flashed me back to the Devin Williams pee
- 2:06Speaker 4: Alonzo nightmare. And it makes everybody think of all the
- 2:10Speaker 4: nightmarish losses we've had. And we've had our share, definitely,
- 2:13Speaker 4: but it tracks that ten percent of being a sportsman
- 2:17Speaker 4: is great and ninety percent of it is, you know, disappointment.
- 2:22Speaker 3: That's how it is.
- 2:23Speaker 4: But another core principle is that the national pastime is
- 2:28Speaker 4: bitching and moaning about stuff, mostly on social media.
- 2:31Speaker 3: Every complain about everything.
- 2:34Speaker 4: Like if armand and it's it's not even complaining, it's
- 2:39Speaker 4: the passive aggressive sniping that comes like if armand if
- 2:42Speaker 4: you post, like, let's say you post something.
- 2:45Speaker 3: On X now that you got your X account back,
- 2:47Speaker 3: I have.
- 2:47Speaker 2: An example, but go ahead.
- 2:48Speaker 4: Actually I'd say, yeah, arman, could post I love apples.
- 2:55Speaker 4: There's nothing better than a Honey Crisp or a Macintosh.
- 2:59Speaker 4: And then the first comment will be why do you
- 3:01Speaker 4: hate oranges?
- 3:03Speaker 2: I'm literally shaking, how can you hate oranges? Wi't you?
- 3:06Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 3:06Speaker 2: You please issue an apology to Orange?
- 3:08Speaker 3: And so bitching and moaning about stuff like that.
- 3:10Speaker 2: There is here.
- 3:11Speaker 4: So I've thought for years that we should have like
- 3:13Speaker 4: the wine line or the wine list.
- 3:15Speaker 3: W h I e.
- 3:17Speaker 2: The wine the wine list.
- 3:18Speaker 4: Yeah, so today, you know, yesterday you could be whining
- 3:21Speaker 4: about the ninety ninety degree tempatures if you don't like
- 3:23Speaker 4: hot weather. Today you can wind about the smoke because
- 3:25Speaker 4: it's in the back of your throat.
- 3:26Speaker 3: Can't escape it.
- 3:27Speaker 4: We're inside in the air conditioning and it still sucks.
- 3:30Speaker 4: And I got this like tickle and it's like affecting
- 3:33Speaker 4: my sinuses in the back of my throat, and I
- 3:34Speaker 4: hate it.
- 3:35Speaker 2: You know.
- 3:35Speaker 1: It's an inverse relationship to the easier life is gets
- 3:40Speaker 1: through history for humans. Oh yeah, Like we're at the
- 3:42Speaker 1: never spent the whole time in history to live right obviously,
- 3:45Speaker 1: when you think about it, I mean like you know
- 3:48Speaker 1: they how they go to the bathroom the Middle Ages.
- 3:51Speaker 1: I think about stuff like that in the middle of
- 3:52Speaker 1: the night when I can't sleep, trying to get ready
- 3:54Speaker 1: for the show, Like you know, what do they do
- 3:56Speaker 1: for these So I think about those things, like what
- 3:58Speaker 1: were diapers? Like in twelve hundred there wasn't. So it
- 4:01Speaker 1: is the easiest time ever to live in civilization. Yet
- 4:04Speaker 1: there's an inverse quality the amount of people complaining about it, right,
- 4:07Speaker 1: It seems to be constantly. I mean the amount of
- 4:10Speaker 1: people complain out about air travel, which I get. There
- 4:12Speaker 1: are days when you're in it and probably frustrating, the
- 4:15Speaker 1: laziness and that you are flying in a metal tube
- 4:18Speaker 1: in the sky, one of the biggest miracles of civilization,
- 4:22Speaker 1: and we're complaining about it.
- 4:23Speaker 2: Of Course, these trips used to take weeks months.
- 4:26Speaker 1: You used to not hear from people going cross at
- 4:29Speaker 1: Transatlantic for years through letter. You know, it's just wild.
- 4:33Speaker 1: But now we complain about it. So here's a good
- 4:35Speaker 1: example of what you're saying. As you know, Drew, I
- 4:38Speaker 1: was hacked on Twitter. It has been an ordeal for me.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Finally got my Twitter account going again after about a month, right,
- 4:44Speaker 1: and I learned some things being off Twitter. It was
- 4:47Speaker 1: it was an interesting experience because I learned some things
- 4:49Speaker 1: about myself.
- 4:50Speaker 2: About what we value, what we don't.
- 4:52Speaker 1: I learned that it's not that damn important in the
- 4:55Speaker 1: end social media.
- 4:56Speaker 2: We give an outsize importance to it. Of course, the
- 4:58Speaker 2: dopamine rush we get to.
- 5:00Speaker 1: While it's nice to have and I enjoy for what
- 5:02Speaker 1: it is, talking to fans, talking to sports fans, talking
- 5:06Speaker 1: of our friends, our colleagues, reading up on what's going
- 5:08Speaker 1: on in the world. We give an outsize importance to
- 5:11Speaker 1: social media. It's a At first, it's scary, it's like
- 5:14Speaker 1: flying without a net, and then it's incredibly liberating to know,
- 5:17Speaker 1: you know what, this isn't that big of a deal.
- 5:19Speaker 1: And then I get right back on Twitter and I
- 5:22Speaker 1: get something that I missed for a long time. We
- 5:24Speaker 1: post the show video yesterday Billy and I get a
- 5:27Speaker 1: response from somebody the ar mic, what's with the hat
- 5:31Speaker 1: backwards with you and armand and I said, it's just
- 5:33Speaker 1: easier with the headphones. And I try and look cool.
- 5:35Speaker 1: You know, I'm just trying to be funny. I like
- 5:37Speaker 1: to wear the hat. Billy always wears one backwards, and
- 5:39Speaker 1: he said, how about looking professional instead.
- 5:42Speaker 2: It's not a good look, armin. So there you go
- 5:44Speaker 2: one day back on Twitter and someone's complaining that I'm
- 5:46Speaker 2: wearing a hat on the video stream. Ten It's just
- 5:49Speaker 2: an example of what we're talking.
- 5:50Speaker 4: That's true, right, And the danger is, you know, everybody's
- 5:53Speaker 4: got a voice in our text line. We love the
- 5:55Speaker 4: Nikolay law at dot com talking text line eight seven three.
- 6:00Speaker 4: We love our comments on the YouTube stream and stuff,
- 6:02Speaker 4: but what happens is that we're conditioned now. And I
- 6:06Speaker 4: used to work with a guy who he'd be like, well,
- 6:09Speaker 4: people are saying this, who said that, one guy on
- 6:11Speaker 4: Twitter on Twitter, and one idiot said that, and you
- 6:15Speaker 4: think that's the general consensus. And that's how Twitter isn't
- 6:18Speaker 4: real life. The text line is not real life.
- 6:21Speaker 2: It's not an.
- 6:22Speaker 4: Indicator of what people think of the quality of the show.
- 6:24Speaker 4: And that I've learned that early on. It's like, because
- 6:27Speaker 4: I used to get back in the day when I
- 6:29Speaker 4: was working for the Journal Sentinel. Every once in a while,
- 6:32Speaker 4: i'd get like a people would sit down and write
- 6:34Speaker 4: a letter to you, like before email even and they
- 6:37Speaker 4: put their you know, they put a stamp on it
- 6:39Speaker 4: and you have to return address, and they'd sign it.
- 6:41Speaker 3: They going to tell you how much you sucked.
- 6:43Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's like, oh, okay, well, my dog still
- 6:47Speaker 4: likes me, and so it's okay. If I learned early on,
- 6:50Speaker 4: like let's just let that stuff slide. I don't care,
- 6:53Speaker 4: you know, Yeah, it's funny. I care if my boss
- 6:56Speaker 4: thinks I suck, because that might be an issue because
- 6:58Speaker 4: but if Fred for from Janesville thinks our show sucks,
- 7:02Speaker 4: like I'll, uh, thanks, have a good day.
- 7:06Speaker 1: You do, you do feel like you you develop a
- 7:08Speaker 1: sort of crust to defend yourself against it to because
- 7:13Speaker 1: it can be it could come so fast and so
- 7:15Speaker 1: hard with all the comments and things like that, and
- 7:16Speaker 1: you're like, I'm just not pay attention anymore.
- 7:18Speaker 2: And then you realize that.
- 7:20Speaker 1: This is these internet streets are not real life on
- 7:23Speaker 1: the real streets, and exactly stuff to you that they
- 7:27Speaker 1: just never say. We just get so work, We just
- 7:30Speaker 1: get so lost in the sauce of the internet.
- 7:32Speaker 2: Sometimes it is pretty amazing.
- 7:34Speaker 1: I heard an influencer say to describe her job the
- 7:37Speaker 1: best in twenty twenty six successful influencers and a lot
- 7:41Speaker 1: of times, unfortunately females that their job basically in twenty
- 7:45Speaker 1: twenty six is being insulted for a living because most
- 7:48Speaker 1: of the comments now for people that just right away
- 7:51Speaker 1: they go to the negative. They want to insult you.
- 7:53Speaker 1: They and a lot of it is whatever, jealousy, whatever
- 7:55Speaker 1: it is. But it is crazy that you think sometimes
- 7:58Speaker 1: like why we even deal with this this type of thing,
- 8:00Speaker 1: the social media thing, and we assigned so much importance
- 8:03Speaker 1: to it, and it's.
- 8:04Speaker 4: Like and again, like people that I got this back
- 8:07Speaker 4: in the email days, I got an email from a
- 8:09Speaker 4: guy because I had I got a name wrong in
- 8:11Speaker 4: a Brewer's Game story. About two thirds of the way
- 8:16Speaker 4: through a Brewers Game story, I misidentified a guy because
- 8:18Speaker 4: it was a common last name.
- 8:20Speaker 3: And I think it was like a low pez mistake.
- 8:24Speaker 4: And the guy said that I should be fired and
- 8:26Speaker 4: how can you why do you have this job? And
- 8:28Speaker 4: I'm like, I told the guy what I had been
- 8:31Speaker 4: through because I had flight delays. I got to this
- 8:34Speaker 4: game in the third inning and I was scrambling. I said, So,
- 8:36Speaker 4: basically what happened is imagine you go to a restaurant
- 8:39Speaker 4: and you don't know it, but your waitress is not,
- 8:42Speaker 4: you know, on point, and yet she had a flat
- 8:45Speaker 4: tire on the way to work, had to maneuver that
- 8:48Speaker 4: got to work, and the other server was off and
- 8:51Speaker 4: she's handling two sections and the kitchen was late with
- 8:55Speaker 4: stuff because they're down because people are sick. And then
- 8:57Speaker 4: she put down you ordered white wine and your wife
- 9:00Speaker 4: order read and she put the glasses down in front
- 9:02Speaker 4: of the wrong person. And all you had to do
- 9:04Speaker 4: is kind of like switch them, and but you're saying
- 9:06Speaker 4: that she should be fired because of that mistake.
- 9:08Speaker 3: Yeah, I said, that's that.
- 9:10Speaker 4: And then invariably whenever you came back at somebody like that,
- 9:13Speaker 4: I was just having a bad day.
- 9:14Speaker 2: I'm sorry right now.
- 9:15Speaker 3: I read your stuff. I like your stuff.
- 9:16Speaker 4: But they just wanted to vent in that moment, in
- 9:18Speaker 4: that moment, and they also, I think, but you hit send,
- 9:20Speaker 4: you compose this email and hit sen saying I should
- 9:22Speaker 4: be fired because I got a name wrong at the
- 9:24Speaker 4: end of a near the end of a seven hundred
- 9:26Speaker 4: and fifty word game story.
- 9:27Speaker 1: And I think the other the other thing is like, yeah,
- 9:29Speaker 1: they hit send. There's also this disconnect. It happens a
- 9:34Speaker 1: lot in social media, and I think to your case,
- 9:36Speaker 1: probably in the old times with the letter, there's a
- 9:38Speaker 1: disconnect that the person on the other end is actually
- 9:40Speaker 1: a real person, and you forget that, and you forget
- 9:43Speaker 1: that they're just a human like you that might have
- 9:45Speaker 1: had just a human mistake, those things happened, gone through
- 9:49Speaker 1: something or didn't. Yeah, like people almost forget that and
- 9:53Speaker 1: they think, oh this they do a little. Athletes a lot,
- 9:55Speaker 1: right all with athletes, it's like, well, they're human, just
- 9:58Speaker 1: like you, like you forget this actual real person, and
- 10:01Speaker 1: there's a disconnect that we have sometimes for some reason,
- 10:03Speaker 1: and I think it's exacerbated with social media, that the
- 10:06Speaker 1: person on the other end is actually a real person.
- 10:08Speaker 4: Well, now here and here we are encouraging people to
- 10:10Speaker 4: complain about stuff. Because if we start this wine list
- 10:13Speaker 4: one of the things and shout out to our friends
- 10:15Speaker 4: in the six oh eight Madison, give them some love.
- 10:17Speaker 4: Because it's a slow time for Badger athletics. I mean,
- 10:20Speaker 4: Sean Iickers is getting established and we're getting ready for
- 10:23Speaker 4: football camp to start, and so it's kind of a
- 10:26Speaker 4: slow time on campus and just with the Badgers. But
- 10:30Speaker 4: I was just reading a friend of mine who lives
- 10:32Speaker 4: in Madison shout out to six oh eight all our listeners, sir,
- 10:36Speaker 4: longtime listeners.
- 10:37Speaker 3: On ten seventy.
- 10:40Speaker 4: You know, here we complain about our traffic and our problems.
- 10:43Speaker 4: But my friend was driving back from up north, north
- 10:47Speaker 4: of the wall.
- 10:48Speaker 3: What is the where the smoke was bad. He was
- 10:51Speaker 3: in Monocua, way.
- 10:52Speaker 2: Up there, way up there where everyone everyone's going to
- 10:54Speaker 2: New York County.
- 10:55Speaker 4: Yeah, he was driving back and he had spent the
- 10:58Speaker 4: day there and the smoke was really bad, and that
- 11:00Speaker 4: kind of it was hot, unseasonably ungodly hot for that
- 11:04Speaker 4: portion of the state, and the smoke was bad. And
- 11:06Speaker 4: then on his way back, he got word that I
- 11:09Speaker 4: thirty nine was close south of Portage because of a
- 11:11Speaker 4: massive accident, so he had to wheel around to fifty
- 11:15Speaker 4: one to avoid the mess. And once he got into Madison,
- 11:19Speaker 4: the eastbound belt line was at a full stop from
- 11:22Speaker 4: the Interstate west past Fish Hatchery Road, so it was
- 11:26Speaker 4: six miles of a parking lot, and then he had
- 11:30Speaker 4: to go to the east side and the belt line
- 11:32Speaker 4: was screwed up, so John Nolan Drive is torn up,
- 11:36Speaker 4: and he had to try to get around Capitol Square
- 11:39Speaker 4: just around five o'clock.
- 11:40Speaker 3: Which is not ideal if you live in Madison. A nightmare.
- 11:45Speaker 4: So he drove seven and a half miles in an
- 11:49Speaker 4: hour and twelve minutes. Wow, And he's got the ass
- 11:54Speaker 4: about it. And it's like, Okay, what is frustrating? And
- 11:56Speaker 4: I think of Madison's traffic, I can't be as bad
- 11:58Speaker 4: as Milwaukee's. But it can't if you've been on that
- 12:00Speaker 4: belt line, absolutely.
- 12:02Speaker 3: And it can be.
- 12:03Speaker 4: Everybody's got their frustrations and around the Capitol and the
- 12:07Speaker 4: Capitol and Madison is growing and they're adding population and
- 12:11Speaker 4: they're building apartments and it's people want to live it
- 12:13Speaker 4: because it's a very desirable place to be. But the
- 12:16Speaker 4: roads ain't getting any bigger and the traffic's not going
- 12:19Speaker 4: to get better, right, and so the wine line could
- 12:23Speaker 4: be a place for people like that. So the winelest,
- 12:24Speaker 4: we might have to do a wineless on our show.
- 12:26Speaker 4: Let's get Ernst and Julio Gallo or Kendall Jackson or
- 12:30Speaker 4: or somebody to sponsor the wineless a wine or bar,
- 12:34Speaker 4: discount liquor somebody who sells wine, raise wine and like spirits.
- 12:39Speaker 4: But we we might have to do a wineless because
- 12:42Speaker 4: because it is such a it's it is the past
- 12:44Speaker 4: time it is complaining about it.
- 12:46Speaker 3: So what's the wineless?
- 12:47Speaker 2: We also want like a place people will do it.
- 12:49Speaker 2: It's okay to do it.
- 12:50Speaker 4: Oh yeah, but if it's yeah, and then you but
- 12:52Speaker 4: the thing is and it is cathartic, like my thing
- 12:55Speaker 4: on the office is there's a lot like when you're
- 12:59Speaker 4: in the office bitch about management and the boss is
- 13:01Speaker 4: an idiot, and some of it is good, but there's
- 13:04Speaker 4: a line where it gets toxic and I you know,
- 13:07Speaker 4: some of it is good and healthy and fun, and
- 13:09Speaker 4: I call that recreational ragging.
- 13:10Speaker 3: Sure, of course we're recreationally ragging when I.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Joke about like why aren't the construction streets done yet?
- 13:16Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.
- 13:18Speaker 4: Recreational ragging is like, you know, like why hasn't this
- 13:21Speaker 4: happened yet? Or you know, hey, these idiots the tawel
- 13:24Speaker 4: dispenser in the men's room doesn't work.
- 13:26Speaker 3: Whatever. Recreational ragging.
- 13:28Speaker 4: But as long as it's not toxic, it can be
- 13:30Speaker 4: healthy and cathartic to a point.
- 13:32Speaker 3: But we might have to start a wineless here on
- 13:34Speaker 3: the show.
- 13:36Speaker 1: And we can participate in that too. We will as Waukeshaw.
- 13:40Speaker 1: Madison is the blank show right now with the construction,
- 13:43Speaker 1: where I'm not whining about it.
- 13:44Speaker 2: I'm just sitting in a stating of fact. Love you guys,
- 13:47Speaker 2: have a good day.
- 13:47Speaker 3: Thank you well again.
- 13:50Speaker 4: Shout out to our friends in Madison because we live
- 13:51Speaker 4: in and in Milwaukee, we.
- 13:54Speaker 2: Broadcast to you as well. You're part of us.
- 13:56Speaker 1: Yeah, they're part of us too. Yes, yeah, that would
- 13:59Speaker 1: be pretty good. A wine line like that one. We're
- 14:02Speaker 1: all whining about the wildflower excuse me, the flowers or
- 14:06Speaker 1: we wouldn't be whining about wild flowers. We're whinding about
- 14:08Speaker 1: the wildfires today. Yeah, and I think that's.
- 14:11Speaker 2: A good gripe.
- 14:11Speaker 1: Now, I'm not sure anything will change, and this is
- 14:14Speaker 1: nature after all, but the complain about it is something
- 14:17Speaker 1: you can Well, if you're looking for a small talk.
- 14:19Speaker 2: With a neighbor, this would be it.
- 14:20Speaker 3: And well that's the thing. Yeah, we talked about how
- 14:22Speaker 3: hot it was the last couple of days.
- 14:23Speaker 4: And now you know we've got explosive diarrhea spreading around.
- 14:27Speaker 4: You're worried about eating let us on your sandwich. I
- 14:30Speaker 4: went and had a sandwich. I said, I had let
- 14:32Speaker 4: us on. I'm like, oh, didn't they open it at
- 14:33Speaker 4: the U Line stage. It's summerfest diarrhea. They're playing in
- 14:37Speaker 4: the rave tomorrow, play with the buttholed surface, and then
- 14:39Speaker 4: they're the Orphium in Madison after that. So all right
- 14:43Speaker 4: eight seven seven, seven, nine four one ninety seven three.
- 14:46Speaker 3: People were bitching about the brusery.
- 14:47Speaker 2: Why does this make sense?
- 14:48Speaker 3: A guy who's old and hurt all.
- 14:49Speaker 4: The time, like, we don't know, and what are you
- 14:51Speaker 4: complaining about? They didn't give up. They gave up Jayden
- 14:53Speaker 4: Fielder and some money. That's not yours, and it's not
- 14:56Speaker 4: their only move, but it okay, So maybe not whinding
- 14:59Speaker 4: a about the Lance mccullor's apposition.
- 15:01Speaker 1: I just don't understand that it's not gonna be BA like.
- 15:06Speaker 1: It's not necessarily supposed to be the big trade. So
- 15:08Speaker 1: if you're underwhelmed by it, just hope.
- 15:10Speaker 4: That Lance mccullors doesn't spend a lot of time on
- 15:12Speaker 4: our Orthopedic Associates of Wisconsin Injury Report Arthur Wisconsin dot
- 15:15Speaker 4: com at the website to learn about the best orthopedic
- 15:17Speaker 4: outfit in the state, world class care right in our
- 15:20Speaker 4: backyard clinic opening on Johnson Creek. Check them out. Check
- 15:23Speaker 4: out the website Ortho Wisconsin dot com. I had my
- 15:25Speaker 4: hip or place there. I'm thinking about doing the other
- 15:27Speaker 4: one because it's so awesome. Check out Ortho Wisconsin dot com.
- 15:31Speaker 4: Orthpedic Associates Wisconsin. There is a difference. But if Lance
- 15:33Speaker 4: mccullor's gets hurt right away, people be flashing back there
- 15:36Speaker 4: bitching about the Trevor Rosenthal deal years ago that you know,
- 15:40Speaker 4: led to Kristan Peters being an All star for the
- 15:42Speaker 4: White Sox, that the Burgers let him get away, and
- 15:44Speaker 4: so did the rays, just saying yeah, just saying, so
- 15:48Speaker 4: I had to give.
- 15:49Speaker 1: Up Jayden Fielder the trade. Maybe some people upset about that.
- 15:52Speaker 1: I'm not really sure. I don't think people were paying
- 15:54Speaker 1: attention to him other than knowing he was, you know,
- 15:56Speaker 1: part of the organization. But now you have Carston Sabathia. Yeah,
- 16:00Speaker 1: Carson the son of CC. Yeah, Corse c C stood
- 16:03Speaker 1: for Carson Charles.
- 16:03Speaker 2: I don't know if people knew that. So another Carson
- 16:06Speaker 2: that is a good Poston's a good point.
- 16:08Speaker 4: So yeah, like you know, again, the wine list could
- 16:12Speaker 4: be fun. We might have to if we can get
- 16:13Speaker 4: it sponsored. Perhaps if anyone knows a wine retailer perhaps
- 16:17Speaker 4: or a wine bar. Cooper's Hawk would love to raise
- 16:21Speaker 4: s Borado's Discount Liquor friend of the show, Marie over there.
- 16:25Speaker 4: Discount Liquor does a great job. They got incredible wine selection.
- 16:28Speaker 4: They if they can't find it, you can't get it.
- 16:30Speaker 4: There's a wine bar near my house that I stop
- 16:33Speaker 4: at once in a while. It's really cool. So yeah,
- 16:35Speaker 4: the wine list might be a thing, So stay tuned
- 16:37Speaker 4: for development the wine list. It could be a good
- 16:41Speaker 4: way to dump the bucket. You know, I think it
- 16:42Speaker 4: is je Te hump day whatever.
- 16:45Speaker 1: Well, I had mine earlier about the the love for
- 16:48Speaker 1: these golf courses that people love, you know, like a
- 16:49Speaker 1: gusta Yes, like st Andrews. Okay, so I've got a
- 16:52Speaker 1: lot of disagreement, one hundred percent disagreement. Jeffrey from Milwaukee's
- 16:56Speaker 1: pushing back. He's complaining, arm your golf course comparison is
- 16:59Speaker 1: absolutely terrible. You go to nice courses compared to your
- 17:01Speaker 1: county or cheaper public courses.
- 17:03Speaker 2: And it's night and day. It's the same one. Going
- 17:06Speaker 2: to a minor league, same or the majors.
- 17:07Speaker 1: Every golf course is different and maintained differently, and they
- 17:09Speaker 1: have different nooks and crannies.
- 17:11Speaker 2: Well, I agree with that.
- 17:12Speaker 1: I know that I mean, and and my point is
- 17:17Speaker 1: a course can be maintained as much as an expensive
- 17:19Speaker 1: course cannot be maintained. So you can maintain a course
- 17:23Speaker 1: as well as a as a But the point is
- 17:25Speaker 1: a famous one is the same thing as the ones
- 17:28Speaker 1: that are cheaper, not famous, but also well maintained. It's
- 17:31Speaker 1: just grass, trees and water. Now now that's the disagreement,
- 17:34Speaker 1: I guess. But so Jeffrey doesn't like my take either,
- 17:36Speaker 1: So there you go wineless like this, keep it up.
- 17:39Speaker 4: We got a text from someone saying that they were
- 17:41Speaker 4: a little leary about the Nate i'met picked by by
- 17:44Speaker 4: the Yes Bucks.
- 17:46Speaker 3: He scored twenty three yesterday.
- 17:47Speaker 1: He had a good game and everyone there's another one.
- 17:49Speaker 1: People were complaining about him the no and on Bucks Twitter, and.
- 17:52Speaker 4: He scored twenty three. It's like, oh, I said that
- 17:54Speaker 4: might be okay, pump the brakes. You got to give
- 17:56Speaker 4: young players a little runway, don't you.
- 17:58Speaker 2: I mean we're not the summer League.
- 17:59Speaker 1: And three games in so it's like, yeah, now he
- 18:02Speaker 1: looked better last night, and.
- 18:03Speaker 3: He's gonna look better three years from now than he
- 18:05Speaker 3: does right now.
- 18:06Speaker 1: We don't need to litigate guys every day, you know. No,
- 18:09Speaker 1: it's fun to do it sometimes.
- 18:10Speaker 3: But no, we don't. We absolutely don't.
- 18:12Speaker 4: All right, eight seven, seven, seven, nine to four one
- 18:15Speaker 4: ninety seven three gets you to Nicolay Lodac. I'm talking
- 18:18Speaker 4: text on which it might be the wine list right there,
- 18:20Speaker 4: if you got something to wind about. One thing we
- 18:22Speaker 4: don't complain about is catching up with our Baddy Matt Miller,
- 18:25Speaker 4: a man about film. We got to talk to him
- 18:27Speaker 4: about all things movies, culture and just catch up.
- 18:31Speaker 3: With the new Dad Matt Miller. He's up next.
- 18:35Speaker 4: You're in the huddle, Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. It's been
- 18:41Speaker 4: too long since we heard that walk up song. Ladies
- 18:44Speaker 4: and gentlemen, welcome back to the program, our returning champion,
- 18:47Speaker 4: our pala man about film, our go to guy, mister
- 18:50Speaker 4: Matt Miller.
- 18:52Speaker 2: Good morning.
- 18:54Speaker 5: How are we doing to mego?
- 18:55Speaker 1: You know what, man, I've been playing Careless Whisper for
- 18:58Speaker 1: you for a while.
- 18:59Speaker 2: Maybe I should change it to big Papa. How's dad laughing? Now?
- 19:05Speaker 5: Dad, life's treating me pretty good. Mister baby has been
- 19:09Speaker 5: really good. He's giving us extended sleep at night.
- 19:13Speaker 2: We're sleeping. Well, that's the first question you get right
- 19:15Speaker 2: all the time. Yeah, yep.
- 19:17Speaker 5: Although we are bracing for the impact of the four
- 19:20Speaker 5: month sleep regression, you get those. So so that's exciting,
- 19:25Speaker 5: that's fun. We got that on the horizon. But he's great.
- 19:27Speaker 5: He's starting to smile, starting to laugh, which is great
- 19:29Speaker 5: for me because I need that crowd appreciation.
- 19:34Speaker 2: I know, Laura is joking me like you I've been.
- 19:38Speaker 1: I was waiting for the affirmation, to get the smiles back,
- 19:41Speaker 1: or to get the reaction.
- 19:41Speaker 2: I was like, come on, come on, it's going to
- 19:43Speaker 2: be happening soon.
- 19:44Speaker 1: You're two months old now, so the first couple of months, yeah,
- 19:47Speaker 1: you're just trying to get sleep. And uh, it's crazy
- 19:49Speaker 1: because Lenna just turned two and all my snapchats come
- 19:52Speaker 1: back on the newborn days happening like these these two
- 19:54Speaker 1: weeks a couple of years ago, so it becomes very nostalgic,
- 19:58Speaker 1: even though she's obviously not that old yet. But she
- 20:00Speaker 1: comes to toddler so they change very quickly and rapidly,
- 20:05Speaker 1: and their stages changed as you know too, Drew. So yeah,
- 20:09Speaker 1: it is yours as an adult now.
- 20:11Speaker 5: So it's that tricky thing some afternoons where it's like
- 20:14Speaker 5: the baby's like napping on you and you're like, I
- 20:17Speaker 5: should move the baby to the bass and nette so
- 20:19Speaker 5: that way I can like achieve something today, so I
- 20:21Speaker 5: can get a task done around the house. But at
- 20:24Speaker 5: the same time, like this isn't gonna happen forever. Yeah,
- 20:28Speaker 5: so yeah, I'm in the fun face right now. You know,
- 20:33Speaker 5: you move in and out of faces, and some are
- 20:35Speaker 5: a lot more fun than the others.
- 20:36Speaker 4: But right now it's funny because you're in that stage
- 20:39Speaker 4: when I was home because of my schedule back in
- 20:42Speaker 4: the day I had, you know, winters off and I
- 20:44Speaker 4: got to spend a lot of time with my daughter,
- 20:45Speaker 4: and I wouldn't trade it for anything. But at that time,
- 20:48Speaker 4: there was no social media. There wasn't a lot going on,
- 20:50Speaker 4: and so what did I do? I watched you gavel
- 20:53Speaker 4: to gavel coverage of the Mark Timura trial. Oh gosh, yeah,
- 20:56Speaker 4: that's how I spent my days court TV. That's how
- 21:00Speaker 4: I spent my days. You, on the other hand, have
- 21:02Speaker 4: the World Cup. You had the yannest thing to sift through.
- 21:05Speaker 4: You had, like, you've had a lot of distractions.
- 21:07Speaker 5: So many Bravo reality TV shows.
- 21:10Speaker 3: Well, the Brewer season going, well, yeah, you've had a.
- 21:13Speaker 5: Lot of World Cup has been has been great for
- 21:16Speaker 5: baby watching because it's also not too loud like it is.
- 21:19Speaker 5: It is like a pretty like just low hum in
- 21:21Speaker 5: the background.
- 21:22Speaker 2: It's just the din, the din of the ambient sound
- 21:25Speaker 2: and stuff.
- 21:25Speaker 5: Yeah, so that's been a really enjoyable watch. Frankly, I'm
- 21:29Speaker 5: gonna need them to do another World Cup this summer.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Yeah, I need.
- 21:33Speaker 5: I need to do around too, so that way I've
- 21:35Speaker 5: got something more to watch, like and let's put it
- 21:38Speaker 5: in a different country, Like I'm fine with a four
- 21:40Speaker 5: am wake up.
- 21:41Speaker 1: Oh right now, well the Paris Olympics, remember that drew
- 21:44Speaker 1: that summer.
- 21:44Speaker 2: So it was like, oh, there's something to watch in
- 21:46Speaker 2: the middle of the night.
- 21:47Speaker 5: You know, yes, exactly, I'll watch I'll watch fencing at
- 21:50Speaker 5: five point thirty in the morning.
- 21:51Speaker 4: A really good friend of mine got hooked on soccer.
- 21:54Speaker 4: He'd never watched it, but he was up late and
- 21:56Speaker 4: that was the only thing that was on at the time,
- 21:59Speaker 4: and he was like, no, you taking care of his
- 22:01Speaker 4: screaming newborn watching soccer, and he realized that, hey, you
- 22:04Speaker 4: attack the goal same as hockey.
- 22:05Speaker 3: It's very similar. I like this, this is a good game.
- 22:07Speaker 3: And he got home.
- 22:09Speaker 5: Funny how when you watch really good soccer, it's it's
- 22:12Speaker 5: really good. America's problem. The soccer we watch is like
- 22:18Speaker 5: grade school Church Fleet soccer and the MLS, which is
- 22:22Speaker 5: generally like a retirement league.
- 22:24Speaker 2: Yeah, good point.
- 22:25Speaker 4: As a new first time parent, Matt Miller, have you
- 22:28Speaker 4: major way to theaters recently? There's a lot going on
- 22:31Speaker 4: in the box office.
- 22:33Speaker 5: I've been lucky. Remy has been very cooperative, and I
- 22:37Speaker 5: have a really wonderful wife who I've I've gotten to
- 22:39Speaker 5: the theater still, so I got to see Obsession, I got
- 22:42Speaker 5: to see back Rooms. I made the poored the mistake
- 22:46Speaker 5: of seeing the new Evil Dead movie. I've gotten to
- 22:50Speaker 5: see a lot of the stuff I wanted to see,
- 22:51Speaker 5: and you know, a lot of I still haven't seen
- 22:54Speaker 5: the new Star Wars, which it sounds like me and
- 22:56Speaker 5: the rest of America have that in common. Y havn't
- 23:01Speaker 5: gotten to see the New Milana, which again seems like
- 23:04Speaker 5: something the rest of America haven't come to.
- 23:07Speaker 3: Story five.
- 23:09Speaker 5: I'm hoping to get Toy Story five, still hoping that.
- 23:11Speaker 5: I'm bracing for impact, because you know, a movie about
- 23:15Speaker 5: raising a child is gonna probably hit a lot harder
- 23:17Speaker 5: than six months ago, nine months ago.
- 23:21Speaker 1: Yeah, but I think I read I didn't see it,
- 23:23Speaker 1: but I think I read that that someone was complaining
- 23:24Speaker 1: they missed the thematic tone that you got in the
- 23:27Speaker 1: first few And I'm like, well, this is a fifth sequel,
- 23:29Speaker 1: even though it's animated. How many times can you get
- 23:31Speaker 1: the thematic tone when it's you know, air buddy?
- 23:35Speaker 5: Yeah? Disposable. Yeah, I've heard this is the most disposable
- 23:39Speaker 5: of the five Toy Story movies. And I do something
- 23:42Speaker 5: I always appreciate about the Toy Story movies is how
- 23:44Speaker 5: much they've grown up with their main audience. You know,
- 23:47Speaker 5: you and me, we grew up with it. We were
- 23:49Speaker 5: the kids with at the time when Toy Story was
- 23:51Speaker 5: prime our age. And then the second movie kind of
- 23:54Speaker 5: develops those scenes a little bit more. And then literally
- 23:57Speaker 5: Toy Story three is a movie about going away to college,
- 24:00Speaker 5: when Magnie ob were going away to college and you know,
- 24:03Speaker 5: and stuff like that, so it hits even harder. And
- 24:05Speaker 5: so it's a fascinating series that knows is aware of
- 24:09Speaker 5: its audience and where they're at. But I do think,
- 24:12Speaker 5: you know, five entries, it's really hard to make five
- 24:15Speaker 5: really really good entries in the series. You almost get
- 24:18Speaker 5: the impression that maybe, you know, sometimes you kind of just,
- 24:21Speaker 5: you know, call it a day and say we did good.
- 24:24Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what they say about American Pie. The beta
- 24:26Speaker 2: house here.
- 24:29Speaker 5: Yeah, the American Pie franchise is just like Toys Story.
- 24:32Speaker 5: We'd cool quality.
- 24:33Speaker 4: We're burying the lead here because the big story is
- 24:36Speaker 4: about to push everything to the side. Christopher Nolan was
- 24:38Speaker 4: already a Hall of Famer, but he is apparently according
- 24:43Speaker 4: to early reports and ninety eight percent of critics. Early
- 24:47Speaker 4: the Odyssey is going to be it. It is going
- 24:50Speaker 4: to be the movie of the summer, of the year,
- 24:52Speaker 4: the decade. What do you think can it live up
- 24:55Speaker 4: to the hype because the hype is real.
- 24:57Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's it's his biggest blank check movie
- 25:01Speaker 5: in a career that's now had a bunch of blank
- 25:03Speaker 5: check movies. You know. He comes off of a billion
- 25:06Speaker 5: dollar World War Two movie that won Best Picture and
- 25:10Speaker 5: then they were like, what do you want to do next?
- 25:12Speaker 5: And he was like, I want to make The Odyssey.
- 25:14Speaker 5: And it's crazy that we're excited for a sword and
- 25:17Speaker 5: sandal movie because it's been a really long time since
- 25:20Speaker 5: the sword and sandal genre has been relevant. I mean
- 25:24Speaker 5: Gladiators twenty five years ago at this point. Sandal. Yeah,
- 25:29Speaker 5: last time a sword and sandal movie made good money
- 25:32Speaker 5: was like three hundred and three hundred's more of a
- 25:34Speaker 5: comic book movie, like that's so stylized, like a traditional
- 25:39Speaker 5: you know, guys with swords fighting in a desert and
- 25:43Speaker 5: stuff like that. I mean, people like Troy. Now, Troy
- 25:46Speaker 5: flopped at the time, so it'll be really interesting. It
- 25:50Speaker 5: sounds like it's going to open huge this weekend. It
- 25:52Speaker 5: sounds like the reviews are really good, and that means
- 25:54Speaker 5: that it'll probably continue to make money. But this has
- 25:56Speaker 5: kind of been the the movie everyone's been waiting for. This.
- 26:00Speaker 5: See what Christopher Nolan's gonna do with this classic story
- 26:03Speaker 5: that everybody knows and has been told multiple times before.
- 26:07Speaker 5: What's the different take here? Sounds like his takes. Excited
- 26:10Speaker 5: I'm seeing it tonight. I'm going to the Imax tonight.
- 26:13Speaker 5: I'm getting three hours of of of non baby time
- 26:17Speaker 5: to go watch the new Christopher Nolans.
- 26:21Speaker 4: Go enjoy Mythological Matt Damon, Matt Damon and Hathaway, Tom
- 26:26Speaker 4: Hollins and Deya, Charlie's Throne, Robert Pattinson.
- 26:31Speaker 5: It's like anyone who started a movie that's made money is.
- 26:35Speaker 1: In the I think about The Odyssey. I think Matt Damon,
- 26:38Speaker 1: not that he won't do well. I'm just being funny.
- 26:40Speaker 1: He's been in and everything, but.
- 26:41Speaker 4: All right, So when it's filmed in Imax, right, so
- 26:44Speaker 4: it's like that's.
- 26:45Speaker 5: The entire movie. It's like, I believe this is the
- 26:47Speaker 5: first time a whole movie has been filmed with Imax cameras,
- 26:51Speaker 5: which is extremely hard because Imax cameras are extremely heavy
- 26:55Speaker 5: and they're bulky, and they're not designed for things like
- 26:59Speaker 5: action syne, so that hurts.
- 27:01Speaker 4: Here's here's the thing that I want to ask Matt,
- 27:03Speaker 4: is like, the visual thing is going to be striking.
- 27:06Speaker 3: Can that offset like mediocre storytelling?
- 27:10Speaker 4: Because it seems like recording the critics this is both like,
- 27:13Speaker 4: this is both visually and emotionally on point.
- 27:17Speaker 5: Yeah, he tends to find a way to kind of
- 27:20Speaker 5: make visuals that look real because I mean he doesn't
- 27:23Speaker 5: do a lot of CGI, he doesn't do a lot
- 27:26Speaker 5: of you know, computer special effects. They're still involved, of course.
- 27:29Speaker 5: I mean, he didn't bend a French you know, he
- 27:32Speaker 5: didn't literally pick up a French road and inception and
- 27:35Speaker 5: bend it for but you know, he and obviously you
- 27:38Speaker 5: can't make a cyclops. But he does have a really
- 27:43Speaker 5: good way of doing in camera effects and stuff like that.
- 27:45Speaker 5: But yeah, the the you won't the story's classic. You know,
- 27:49Speaker 5: it's Homer, It's one of the original stories of stories.
- 27:53Speaker 5: So I think as long as you're still kind of
- 27:56Speaker 5: you know, playing with the themes there and doing some
- 27:58Speaker 5: smart stuff there, I mean, at this point I have
- 28:02Speaker 5: to trust him, right, everyone thought he was insane for
- 28:04Speaker 5: being like I need one hundred and fifty million dollars
- 28:06Speaker 5: to make a movie about the guy who invented the
- 28:08Speaker 5: nuclear bomb. The movie's gonna be three hours long and
- 28:11Speaker 5: mostly in black and white, and you have to trust
- 28:14Speaker 5: that people are going to show up. And I know
- 28:15Speaker 5: what I'm doing, and he knew what he was doing,
- 28:17Speaker 5: and people showed up. This is a guy who's consistently
- 28:22Speaker 5: doing things that shouldn't make money, and they make money,
- 28:26Speaker 5: and he does really impressive things with them. So I'm
- 28:28Speaker 5: really excited to see what he does here. I'm excited
- 28:31Speaker 5: to see, you know, Matt Damon in like a big,
- 28:35Speaker 5: challenging role. A lot of times Matt Damon can just
- 28:38Speaker 5: be playing Matt Damon. So I'll be interested to see
- 28:41Speaker 5: what he's doing here. And it'll be really cool to
- 28:46Speaker 5: see a movie that feels this big. You know, even
- 28:49Speaker 5: if they weren't filming on Imax. You watch a Christopher
- 28:51Speaker 5: Nolan movie and even you know, dialogue scenes between two
- 28:55Speaker 5: people in a kitchen so feels massive, feels huge. He now,
- 29:00Speaker 5: this is arguably the biggest story in history, So it'll
- 29:04Speaker 5: be really interesting to see how he makes that feel
- 29:07Speaker 5: so grand, so massive in the way that his best
- 29:10Speaker 5: movies do.
- 29:11Speaker 3: Is Hollywood coming back a ten billion dollar a year
- 29:13Speaker 3: in the offing.
- 29:15Speaker 5: It's this feels like the closest you know, people always
- 29:17Speaker 5: ask me, you know, man is the box office back? Backer?
- 29:20Speaker 5: Movie Theater's back? And this summer has felt this year
- 29:24Speaker 5: has felt the closest to what a normal, good, healthy
- 29:28Speaker 5: box office should look like. Yes, obviously sequels and blockbusters
- 29:32Speaker 5: are making money, but you know, you've got some original
- 29:35Speaker 5: movies up there. You've got stuff like Obsession and back Rooms,
- 29:38Speaker 5: which I know is based on a Reddit meme but
- 29:41Speaker 5: still is original to most people. You know, obviously the
- 29:44Speaker 5: honysty is a book adaptation, but it's not like everyone's like, ah,
- 29:47Speaker 5: that classic Homer ip, you know, and you know Wuthering
- 29:52Speaker 5: Heights made money. It just feels like there's a lot
- 29:55Speaker 5: more balance right now and a lot more enthusiasm for
- 29:58Speaker 5: things that are new. You know. The fact that Mowana
- 30:02Speaker 5: flopped through the floor is really reassuring to see because Hollywood,
- 30:06Speaker 5: because the audiences are finally like, no, we have a
- 30:08Speaker 5: good Moana at home. We don't need the t MoU
- 30:12Speaker 5: version of Moana. Like we know, this is a money grab.
- 30:16Speaker 5: So it's nice to see audiences responding that way to
- 30:20Speaker 5: like the obvious stuff and then being like, yeah, I
- 30:22Speaker 5: want to see what we're doing with the Odyssey. I
- 30:25Speaker 5: want to see an original Werewolf movie by Robert Eggers,
- 30:29Speaker 5: you know, the stuff people are excited about. And I
- 30:32Speaker 5: know I'm saying this all on in two weeks of
- 30:33Speaker 5: the new Spider Man movies.
- 30:34Speaker 2: Well I was just gonna say, if.
- 30:35Speaker 1: You're too if you're too scared of change and anything new,
- 30:39Speaker 1: you still have a DC movie and a Spider Man movie.
- 30:41Speaker 2: Am I right?
- 30:42Speaker 5: Is right? And this is healthy. There's always been sequels,
- 30:47Speaker 5: There's always been you know, ip, There's always been this stuff,
- 30:51Speaker 5: but for about a decade or so there it was
- 30:53Speaker 5: really reliant on exclusively those things. And Hollywood is not
- 30:57Speaker 5: fixed by any means, and it's not. I mean, I'm
- 31:01Speaker 5: sure I will read a headline today that they're green
- 31:03Speaker 5: lighting you know, I don't know, Polly Pocket the movie
- 31:05Speaker 5: or something. They already tried that, but they'll green light
- 31:09Speaker 5: some other bad idea. But the fact that audiences are like, no,
- 31:13Speaker 5: we really want to see Send Help. We want to
- 31:15Speaker 5: see you know, the drama, the Zendea Robert Pattinson movie
- 31:20Speaker 5: like that, that's really exciting to me that audiences are
- 31:24Speaker 5: showing up for stuff that Hollywood hasn't been making, and
- 31:28Speaker 5: audiences haven't been showing up for in a while.
- 31:30Speaker 4: It's funny because you go buy the coverage and the
- 31:33Speaker 4: churn of stories about box office movies and actual movies
- 31:37Speaker 4: in theaters outstrips, you know, the Bear.
- 31:41Speaker 3: You know, it's like it's like the Netflix the TV stuff.
- 31:45Speaker 4: Now, maybe it'll change when ted Lasso fires up again
- 31:47Speaker 4: because people are obsessed with soccer right now. And I
- 31:49Speaker 4: know the NBC is excited because Premier League is going
- 31:52Speaker 4: to get a big bump from this World Cup run
- 31:54Speaker 4: when they fire up. But you know, ted as but
- 31:57Speaker 4: it seems like the tightest shifting back to away from
- 32:02Speaker 4: the streaming shows.
- 32:03Speaker 5: Well, and you're seeing, you know, Netflix really wants to
- 32:05Speaker 5: get into live programming now even more so, and they're
- 32:08Speaker 5: getting you know, they're trying to find their next boards. Yeah,
- 32:13Speaker 5: and I'm trying to remember, was the Bear like a
- 32:16Speaker 5: big drop at once released or is that a weekly was? Yeah,
- 32:21Speaker 5: And I think a lot of the streamers are moving
- 32:24Speaker 5: away from that because man, unless it is a Stranger
- 32:27Speaker 5: Things or a squig Game or something like that where
- 32:30Speaker 5: it becomes a sensation. It's just really hard to dump
- 32:33Speaker 5: all your episodes at once and be like, we're gonna
- 32:35Speaker 5: get a month or two of good coverage, right, you
- 32:38Speaker 5: have a weekend of covers. You know, the hype.
- 32:41Speaker 1: They want the drama of people talking about the next season,
- 32:43Speaker 1: and they also want the protection of not having this
- 32:45Speaker 1: to put too much money into something that they don't
- 32:47Speaker 1: know is gonna work yet.
- 32:48Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, but look at the Pit. The Pit was
- 32:52Speaker 5: a weekly release, and therefore, like each week you had
- 32:54Speaker 5: people talking about that episode and building up excitement the
- 32:58Speaker 5: new Game of Thrones, you know, it's starting to get
- 33:00Speaker 5: a little bit of momentum right now. And again that's
- 33:03Speaker 5: weekly released, so every week you get a new excited
- 33:07Speaker 5: press cycle, you get a new excited audience, whereas these
- 33:10Speaker 5: binge drops. I think it's getting more and more clear that, like,
- 33:14Speaker 5: you just can't maintain that level of excitement unless you
- 33:16Speaker 5: are a of the moment, you know, phenomenon, and how
- 33:20Speaker 5: often can you have.
- 33:25Speaker 4: Maybe it's me and you can call me an old curmudgeon,
- 33:27Speaker 4: but I would rather see stories and stuff hit my
- 33:31Speaker 4: timeline about the Odyssey and maybe even the Bear than
- 33:36Speaker 4: freaking Love Island I'm sorry, Jo.
- 33:40Speaker 5: I will say I have a new respect for crummy
- 33:42Speaker 5: reality TV though, because when you are a new father,
- 33:44Speaker 5: when you are a new parent, like reality TV is
- 33:48Speaker 5: the perfect background noise because it is dramatic and it
- 33:51Speaker 5: is you know, it's engaging, but it is absolutely it
- 33:54Speaker 5: is negative brain celling. I would love to using this
- 33:58Speaker 5: time to like watching streaming movies and watching the catching
- 34:03Speaker 5: up on movies I've missed over the years and stuff
- 34:05Speaker 5: like that, but my brain just doesn't have the brain power.
- 34:08Speaker 5: So it's like, yeah, man, Real Housewives of Rhode Island,
- 34:11Speaker 5: here we go.
- 34:13Speaker 3: Chewing gum for the eyes.
- 34:14Speaker 1: It's a Swanson hungry man dinner where you just didn't
- 34:16Speaker 1: want to make food, but you wanted something that's salty
- 34:19Speaker 1: and good, you.
- 34:19Speaker 5: Know, yeah, is it even a hungry man? Sub hungry man?
- 34:24Speaker 5: This is like raw frozen chicken breast.
- 34:28Speaker 2: You're right, this is tackle bell door dash.
- 34:30Speaker 5: No.
- 34:30Speaker 1: But listen, Hey, I don't know what the conversation was
- 34:33Speaker 1: like when you had to tell your wife, sorry, honey,
- 34:35Speaker 1: I'm leaving the newborn baby to go watch the new
- 34:37Speaker 1: Jackass movie.
- 34:38Speaker 2: How was that? Did you do that?
- 34:40Speaker 5: I did, I don't do that. I did tell my
- 34:44Speaker 5: wife at this point. It's it's it's a fun movie.
- 34:49Speaker 5: It's it's a clip show. Like the last Jackass movie
- 34:52Speaker 5: is the last proper Jackass movie. This one is like
- 34:55Speaker 5: some deleted scenes and like a few fun new clips,
- 35:00Speaker 5: but they're just they're funny. I like hanging out with them,
- 35:04Speaker 5: and the stuff is funny, and it's a it's it's
- 35:07Speaker 5: a kind of melancholy look back, which is a weird
- 35:09Speaker 5: thing to be. Like, ah, the melancholy of the Jackass movie.
- 35:13Speaker 5: In a way, it's.
- 35:13Speaker 1: Actually the most more interesting because instead of just getting
- 35:17Speaker 1: that shovelty, you get like an actual reflection of what
- 35:21Speaker 1: the entire life was, the process.
- 35:23Speaker 2: And everyone growing up and getting older in a lot
- 35:25Speaker 2: of ways.
- 35:26Speaker 5: So yeah, I mean it's still cries briefly. Yeah, Like
- 35:29Speaker 5: he gets teared up talking about it, and you're like,
- 35:32Speaker 5: I get it, man, Like the way you guys have
- 35:34Speaker 5: grown up in front and the lives you've lived, the
- 35:38Speaker 5: intense lives that many of these guys have gone through. Yeah,
- 35:43Speaker 5: it's it's it's a fun time. Don't expect like any
- 35:46Speaker 5: new great Like I don't. I don't think there's any
- 35:48Speaker 5: classic bits in it, but you get to see a
- 35:52Speaker 5: bunch of classic bits from the past. I mean, the
- 35:54Speaker 5: golf course one is in there, and that's one of
- 35:56Speaker 5: the just funniest things they've done.
- 35:58Speaker 2: It's gotta be like one of the threes.
- 36:00Speaker 1: We're getting real old but still parading themselves in a
- 36:03Speaker 1: new thing right when they were the seventies, Like we
- 36:06Speaker 1: can't hit curly anymore, but we still are here, you know,
- 36:08Speaker 1: we're still here.
- 36:09Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, it's a little bit like that. It's like
- 36:11Speaker 5: a it's truly like like Rolling Stones on their final final,
- 36:16Speaker 5: Final tour thing where it's like they don't have the energy,
- 36:19Speaker 5: they don't have the or it's like seeing Willie Nelson
- 36:22Speaker 5: right now, where like Willie Nelson can't do much on stage.
- 36:26Speaker 5: He stands there, he can't really move much. He raises
- 36:29Speaker 5: his hand, he doesn't interact much. But you're seeing somebody
- 36:33Speaker 5: you love and somebody has a warmth for what he
- 36:35Speaker 5: does and a warmth for the crowd, so you're you're
- 36:37Speaker 5: happy to be there for it. And boy, I don't
- 36:40Speaker 5: sorry Willie Nelson if you're offended that I compared you
- 36:43Speaker 5: to the jackass.
- 36:44Speaker 4: Well, here's the thing that's You walk outside your house
- 36:47Speaker 4: right now and it's like you're in Willie Nelson's tour
- 36:49Speaker 4: bus because of the small from Canadian fires.
- 36:51Speaker 5: I'm looking around right now and it is awful. I
- 36:55Speaker 5: feel like I'm in a World War movie here.
- 36:57Speaker 4: It's a good time to be bunkered in because you
- 36:59Speaker 4: don't want to leave your house right now, So just
- 37:01Speaker 4: just hang around with the newborn. Matt Miller, thank you
