- 0:05Speaker 1: And what if I lost both my hands tomorrow?
- 0:08Speaker 2: You could be a seat model. I was 16 at
- 0:12Speaker 2: the time, or 15.
- 0:14Speaker 3: And then hooking up with a witch. And that was...
- 0:19Speaker 3: Cats can smile, apparently.
- 0:21Speaker 2: Whoa, weird. But it doesn't always mean that they're happy.
- 0:26Speaker 1: Lucy receives a call from what I can only assume
- 0:28Speaker 1: is the future winner of every acting award ever.
- 0:31Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 0:33Speaker 1: But Jenny Noon is a star.
- 0:34Speaker 2: Her looks weren't a part of the issue.
- 0:37Speaker 1: He's like, I had to sell my last top hat
- 0:40Speaker 1: for gas.
- 0:42Speaker 2: Maybe this is not appropriate either, but we'll see. Hey,
- 0:48Speaker 2: welcome to Notable Nostalgia. I'm Jeff.
- 0:50Speaker 1: And I'm Andy.
- 0:51Speaker 3: And before we get started with today's episode, I have
- 0:54Speaker 3: a couple of jokes. These aren't my jokes, Andy.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Okay, I'm excited.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Okay, so one of them is, how did the fetus
- 1:01Speaker 2: cross the road?
- 1:07Speaker 1: Getting yelled at by a bunch of a-holes?
- 1:10Speaker 2: It was stapled to the chicken.
- 1:13Speaker 3: Okay, so then Marissa, super fan Marissa, told me this
- 1:19Speaker 3: one today, and it took me, like, several hours to, like,
- 1:22Speaker 3: figure it out.
- 1:23Speaker 2: But it was, oh, what does a house wear for clothing?
- 1:27Speaker 3: Um.
- 1:31Speaker 1: I feel like.
- 1:32Speaker 2: Someone with curtains. Maybe on the right track.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Hmm. Grass skirt?
- 1:42Speaker 2: Address.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Oh, that's a good one.
- 1:45Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:46Speaker 3: So when she told me she texted me a dress
- 1:49Speaker 3: and then I was thinking like, cause I've heard so
- 1:51Speaker 3: many like dressing jokes, like about like thousand Island and stuff.
- 1:55Speaker 1: How many, if you had to put a number on
- 1:56Speaker 1: it for, I've heard, I've.
- 1:59Speaker 3: Know I've heard, I can't remember all of them, but like,
- 2:01Speaker 3: I know I've heard about like Italian ranch, blue cheese
- 2:04Speaker 3: and Caesar. Like why did the, why was the ketchup red?
- 2:08Speaker 3: This might not be the joke.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Um, I don't know.
- 2:13Speaker 2: Because it saw the salad dressing.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Oh, that's a good one.
- 2:16Speaker 3: Or why was the tomato red? Maybe that's better because
- 2:18Speaker 3: tomatoes go on salads.
- 2:20Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. The ketchup. Who the fuck
- 2:25Speaker 2: is this guy? Oh, my God. This, like, asshole. You
- 2:27Speaker 2: know the asshole that's, like, in charge of ketchup?
- 2:29Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
- 2:30Speaker 1: You know what?
- 2:30Speaker 2: Like, yeah, he's, like, the CEO of ketchup or whatever.
- 2:34Speaker 2: He was being interviewed because he's a successful businessman. I
- 2:37Speaker 2: think it's Kraft. Kraft? Is Kraft make.
- 2:40Speaker 1: I think they own it too.
- 2:41Speaker 2: Yeah. Robert Kraft.
- 2:42Speaker 1: He also owns the Patriots.
- 2:44Speaker 2: Oh, do we like the Patriots?
- 2:45Speaker 1: I never did. I don't really like football though. I don't.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Was that Tom Brady guy?
- 2:49Speaker 3: No. Yeah.
- 2:50Speaker 5: No.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Belichick has always been like a prick and everybody's like, oh,
- 2:54Speaker 1: he's just a good coach.
- 2:54Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:55Speaker 1: Just don't be a prick about it though.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Straight up.
- 2:57Speaker 3: I would literally rather have sex with Giselle than Tom
- 3:00Speaker 3: Brady though.
- 3:00Speaker 2: And I'm like hella gay.
- 3:01Speaker 1: I'm going to have to agree with you on that one.
- 3:04Speaker 1: I think I would, too.
- 3:05Speaker 2: She's fucking gorgeous.
- 3:06Speaker 3: And I love women when they're, like, 45 to 55.
- 3:09Speaker 3: I think that's my new age group of women that
- 3:11Speaker 3: I find attractive. Because, like, Michelle Rodriguez is in that. Who.
- 3:17Speaker 2: Oh, but I would bang Helen Murin.
- 3:20Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, go back to the Robert Kraft of Curious.
- 3:23Speaker 5: Oh!
- 3:29Speaker 2: I would bang Helen... Okay. Oh, he would.
- 3:33Speaker 3: like she was like the reporter was like oh would
- 3:35Speaker 3: you put ketchup on this what was the weirdest thing
- 3:38Speaker 3: you would put you've put ketchup on he was like
- 3:40Speaker 3: cereal oh i was like what she was like milk
- 3:43Speaker 3: yeah her follow-up question was she was like with milk
- 3:46Speaker 3: and he said yeah i was like you're fucking lying
- 3:49Speaker 3: or you're disgusting well it's crazy because like i didn't
- 3:51Speaker 3: know american cheese wasn't real cheese until i was like
- 3:54Speaker 3: 20 it's not real cheese.
- 3:55Speaker 1: That's why it's called oh what's it called I can't remember.
- 3:59Speaker 1: It's not called, it's not cheese though.
- 4:01Speaker 3: But there's like, wait, like if me and you worked
- 4:02Speaker 3: at like a, like a furniture, like warehouse that sold
- 4:06Speaker 3: furniture or like stored furniture to be sold in retail shops,
- 4:10Speaker 3: I wouldn't be okay with not talking about furniture.
- 4:12Speaker 1: A hundred percent.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Like he's just, he's just manically drinking ketchup.
- 4:19Speaker 3: Like it's okay to like be passionate about your career,
- 4:22Speaker 3: but also be like, I wouldn't put ketchup on ice cream.
- 4:25Speaker 1: I think ketchup is my favorite condiment though.
- 4:26Speaker 3: It is?
- 4:27Speaker 2: Probably.
- 4:28Speaker 3: How do you, okay, the most, one of the most
- 4:30Speaker 3: disgusting things, like, obviously, like, poop and vomit, but, like,
- 4:34Speaker 3: dried ketchup. It's, like, if Jackson puts a plate that
- 4:38Speaker 3: had ketchup on it in the sink, and I go
- 4:41Speaker 3: into the, like, the sink, and I hear, like, smell it, I'm, like, ew.
- 4:47Speaker 2: Yeah. I like yellow mustard.
- 4:48Speaker 1: It's the best.
- 4:49Speaker 2: I think wet bread is, like, the grossest thing ever.
- 4:51Speaker 4: Really?
- 4:51Speaker 1: Like, if it's, like, someone leaves a little piece of
- 4:53Speaker 1: bread on a plate, and then it gets wet in
- 4:55Speaker 1: the sink. Yeah.
- 4:56Speaker 3: I don't, so I'm not grossed out by, or scared
- 4:59Speaker 3: of spiders at all. Like, if a spider's crawling at me,
- 5:01Speaker 3: I'll just, like, gently take him off and, like, name him.
- 5:04Speaker 2: But, um, I, like, I just, but, like, I'm not
- 5:08Speaker 2: grossed out or scared of anything.
- 5:09Speaker 3: Like, I pick poop out of my dog's butt if it's, like, stuck. I,
- 5:13Speaker 3: there's hair on me all the time. Like, I don't,
- 5:16Speaker 3: I'm not grossed out by stuff.
- 5:17Speaker 1: You're not really grossed out by hair, but imagine eating, like,
- 5:20Speaker 1: a box of hair.
- 5:21Speaker 2: I wouldn't like it.
- 5:22Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be pretty rough.
- 5:24Speaker 2: But I would rather eat hair than poop.
- 5:26Speaker 1: Yeah, I think out as well.
- 5:27Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 5:28Speaker 1: Well, I guess it depends where the hair is coming.
- 5:29Speaker 4: From, too.
- 5:30Speaker 2: Have you played this?
- 5:31Speaker 3: This is like, oh, by the way, this is notable news.
- 5:34Speaker 3: Have you played Netflix games? OK, so we did that
- 5:38Speaker 3: as a fan. It was Tanya, Jackson, Jeremy, me and Marissa.
- 5:42Speaker 3: And we were playing it literally every meme when we
- 5:45Speaker 3: were doing our gift or whatever.
- 5:46Speaker 2: We were, like, penis.
- 5:48Speaker 5: Right.
- 5:48Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 5:49Speaker 1: I think it was, we were playing Jackbox.
- 5:51Speaker 2: I forget what it was called.
- 5:52Speaker 3: But, like, it's a really confusing game when you're stoned.
- 5:56Speaker 3: But my kid's 15, so it's okay to be stoned
- 5:58Speaker 3: in front. If it was just me and him hanging out,
- 5:59Speaker 3: I'm not going to get stoned. But if there's, like,
- 6:01Speaker 3: five people around, I'm not the parent in that situation, or, like,
- 6:04Speaker 3: the adult. But we were playing, it was just, like,
- 6:06Speaker 3: everyone's answer was penis.
- 6:08Speaker 1: Right.
- 6:08Speaker 3: But so many times I got flagged with, like, a mature,
- 6:12Speaker 3: they call it a maturity standard. Yeah. Yeah. and but
- 6:15Speaker 3: so you can say cunt pussy uh well vagina is
- 6:19Speaker 3: not a drug you say car you can say all
- 6:21Speaker 3: come yeah you say all that but what i was
- 6:24Speaker 3: saying was inappropriate are you kidding me like it was
- 6:27Speaker 3: it was.
- 6:28Speaker 1: Bad though i've been playing i think it might be
- 6:30Speaker 1: jackbox you're playing i've been playing that jackbox game for
- 6:32Speaker 1: like 10 or 15 years because i think it's fun
- 6:34Speaker 1: it's been on xbox for a long time but everybody
- 6:37Speaker 1: since i've been playing it Nobody takes this. Everybody just
- 6:40Speaker 1: like penis. It's fun. You get some good laughs. Yeah.
- 6:44Speaker 3: So no, I really love that. So I love that
- 6:46Speaker 3: part of technology. Like, cause sometimes sitting up a board
- 6:49Speaker 3: and I get really fucking competitive when I'm playing monopoly.
- 6:52Speaker 3: I make sure when we're setting up, I'm like, just
- 6:54Speaker 3: look at me in the eyes. We're playing the entire game. Like,
- 6:57Speaker 3: I tell them that first thing. Like, we're taking this seriously.
- 7:00Speaker 3: This is not fun.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Have you ever watched the World Championship of Monopoly?
- 7:04Speaker 2: Mm-mm.
- 7:04Speaker 1: You should, because you learn a lot of really good
- 7:07Speaker 1: tricks and tips that most people don't know.
- 7:08Speaker 2: I need to.
- 7:09Speaker 1: Yep.
- 7:11Speaker 3: I always win when I play Monopoly, honestly. And so
- 7:13Speaker 3: there's got to be something to that. Yeah.
- 7:16Speaker 1: You're just a great businessman.
- 7:18Speaker 2: Businessman, slumlord.
- 7:19Speaker 3: I don't know how, because I don't think it's like,
- 7:25Speaker 3: my white privilege that's helping me win Monopoly, is it?
- 7:30Speaker 1: Maybe. I've never won one. I'm just kidding. I've definitely won.
- 7:33Speaker 3: You know, when you're about to win, and then, like,
- 7:36Speaker 3: me and Kathy are both on the other side of you,
- 7:38Speaker 3: and then we colonize yours.
- 7:40Speaker 1: And get shot by a cop. Oh, not again.
- 7:45Speaker 3: I don't remember that in the original. Oh, that's just
- 7:47Speaker 3: the people of color one.
- 7:49Speaker 1: That's inappropriate.
- 7:50Speaker 3: I'm not making a joke of that. I'm just shedding
- 7:51Speaker 3: light on racial inequality.
- 7:54Speaker 2: Okay, so... That was my news.
- 7:56Speaker 1: Yeah, I love it.
- 7:57Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 7:57Speaker 2: I don't know where, you know, Monopoly, Helen Murin, ketchup.
- 8:03Speaker 1: Fetus.
- 8:04Speaker 2: Fetus is in there. Chickens.
- 8:06Speaker 1: Staples. So then I was thinking what we could do
- 8:09Speaker 1: for this news is kind of a news special. The
- 8:12Speaker 1: Rose City Comic Con special. Oh, my God.
- 8:14Speaker 3: Yes.
- 8:15Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 8:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 8:15Speaker 1: Because we got free tickets to Rose City Comic Con.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Thank you so much. It was a blast. And so
- 8:21Speaker 1: this episode is going to be kind of recapping the
- 8:23Speaker 1: Friday episode. hey why can't i go you're uh we
- 8:27Speaker 1: did we did get notice of it oh i had
- 8:29Speaker 1: to work it was like a week before too it
- 8:31Speaker 1: was like pretty quick notice.
- 8:33Speaker 3: I should i was thinking so hard i was like
- 8:35Speaker 3: oh i can email i was either gonna just close
- 8:37Speaker 3: like just not work.
- 8:38Speaker 2: And hope no one notices.
- 8:42Speaker 3: Or i was going to just be straight up with
- 8:44Speaker 3: him and be like dude like i have like you
- 8:48Speaker 3: know a duty to like the nation.
- 8:50Speaker 1: I wish that, like, you just closed and then they
- 8:52Speaker 1: called you, like, where are you? At work?
- 8:55Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:55Speaker 1: No, you're not. I'm here.
- 8:58Speaker 2: And then someone's in the background, like, I'm Batman. Yeah.
- 9:01Speaker 2: You're at Comic-Con.
- 9:02Speaker 3: No, plus my coworker was going to be there, so
- 9:04Speaker 3: I didn't want to run into her and be like,
- 9:06Speaker 3: what up?
- 9:08Speaker 1: No, but it was a lot of fun. I recorded
- 9:10Speaker 1: some stuff. I brought a microphone. My plan was, like,
- 9:13Speaker 1: interview a lot of the people that normally aren't interviewed
- 9:16Speaker 1: when it comes to like media stuff. Like, you know,
- 9:18Speaker 1: you get the big celebrities and the people running it.
- 9:20Speaker 1: So I was like, I want you to interview like
- 9:22Speaker 1: some of the people running the little booths and everything.
- 9:24Speaker 1: It's really hard to interview like on the spot like
- 9:28Speaker 1: that with a mic and giving it back and forth.
- 9:29Speaker 1: And it's difficult.
- 9:31Speaker 3: I think we have to, when we do field pieces,
- 9:34Speaker 3: I really want to take the show on the road.
- 9:36Speaker 3: I think that we need to be like, say quick
- 9:39Speaker 3: things to them.
- 9:39Speaker 2: Like, uh, ketchup and mustard. Like that, like that's it.
- 9:43Speaker 3: Like that's the whole interview. So it's like, like, uh,
- 9:46Speaker 3: Sylvester Stallone. I don't know who's like at Comic-Con now.
- 9:49Speaker 3: Cause everyone cancels Parker Posey two years in.
- 9:51Speaker 2: A fucking row.
- 9:53Speaker 3: If you're listening, Parker Posey, you're the number one reason
- 9:55Speaker 3: I like Scream 3. And I'm saying let's boycott Scream 3.
- 10:01Speaker 3: Not because of the like, in my opinion, pro-gen... I
- 10:06Speaker 3: just feel like they're pro-genocide.
- 10:08Speaker 2: Because they're the creators of Scream.
- 10:11Speaker 1: Oh, I've never seen it.
- 10:12Speaker 3: So one of the actresses in the reboot, she was
- 10:15Speaker 3: becoming like one of the it girls in horror. And
- 10:18Speaker 3: she did a post that said like there's a genocide
- 10:21Speaker 3: happening like what the fuck kind of vibe and then
- 10:24Speaker 3: they fired her.
- 10:25Speaker 1: Oh yeah yeah well i can't remember but in the
- 10:27Speaker 1: 40s there was a saying that like by not by
- 10:31Speaker 1: not speaking up the only people you're helping are the
- 10:33Speaker 1: people committing the crimes you know what i mean because
- 10:36Speaker 1: not speaking up is you're never helping the ones getting
- 10:39Speaker 1: you know hurt i.
- 10:41Speaker 3: Think what you need to do because that's a great
- 10:43Speaker 3: quote it is a little bit too long So I
- 10:45Speaker 3: think if we shorten things, then maybe positivity and good
- 10:49Speaker 3: would prevail.
- 10:50Speaker 1: Talk. Now. Quiet.
- 10:53Speaker 2: Bad.
- 10:55Speaker 1: That's pretty short.
- 10:56Speaker 2: I think that's a bumper sticker. But you know who
- 10:59Speaker 2: I fucking hate? Really quick. I'm so sorry. You know
- 11:02Speaker 2: who I fucking hate or hated because she's dead now?
- 11:04Speaker 2: Maya Angelou. oh okay.
- 11:12Speaker 3: She is not okay i know she's like i've done
- 11:16Speaker 3: my research on her like she's had a fucked up
- 11:18Speaker 3: life and somehow turned it into like positivity for the
- 11:21Speaker 3: world so i love that but she's so long-winded oh
- 11:25Speaker 3: yeah she's so long-winded you're.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Like i'm on instagram i don't have time yeah so
- 11:30Speaker 1: like listen to like a long poem or a book or.
- 11:32Speaker 3: Whatever Maya Angelou today is like when somebody is showing
- 11:37Speaker 3: you a video on TikTok or whatever, and it's not funny,
- 11:41Speaker 3: but you notice that it's like three minutes long. Like,
- 11:44Speaker 3: that's Maya Angelou, kids.
- 11:46Speaker 1: She was such a whore. How long do I have
- 11:48Speaker 1: to be nice for?
- 11:50Speaker 2: I don't even think she was.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Okay, this is horror.
- 11:52Speaker 2: I'm joking, people.
- 11:53Speaker 3: But I don't even think she was anything. I think
- 11:57Speaker 3: that Oprah found her and created her. I don't remember
- 12:02Speaker 3: Maya Angelou before Oprah.
- 12:04Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. Say it. Yeah, hey, that's a hard take there.
- 12:08Speaker 2: Okay, let's go.
- 12:10Speaker 1: So I was thinking, before we start, this would be
- 12:12Speaker 1: kind of fun to... When do you think the very
- 12:15Speaker 1: first convention happened?
- 12:17Speaker 2: Ever?
- 12:18Speaker 1: Yeah, well, like when it comes to kind of like
- 12:21Speaker 1: nerdy type stuff.
- 12:23Speaker 3: I don't think nerds were back in like Roman times.
- 12:26Speaker 2: So I'm going to say probably... I think you guys
- 12:30Speaker 2: came along around, like, the 40s.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Oh, really close.
- 12:36Speaker 3: Really?
- 12:36Speaker 1: Really close.
- 12:37Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 12:38Speaker 1: So the very first Comic-Con was 1936. It was called PhilCon. Crazy.
- 12:42Speaker 1: We were just talking about famous people named Phil. Weird. Anyways. PhilCon?
- 12:48Speaker 2: PhilCon.
- 12:49Speaker 1: P-H-I-L.
- 12:50Speaker 2: PhilCon.
- 12:51Speaker 1: Because it was Philadelphia.
- 12:52Speaker 2: Who's the singer? Phil Collins.
- 12:54Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh. Phil Collins.
- 12:55Speaker 2: Phil Collins is famous.
- 12:57Speaker 5: By the way.
- 12:57Speaker 1: There's another one.
- 12:58Speaker 3: Okay.
- 12:59Speaker 1: Yeah, earlier before we started recording, we were trying to
- 13:01Speaker 1: figure out famous people named Phil. It's hard. We got
- 13:04Speaker 1: Phil Hartman and Phil Collins and Prince Philip.
- 13:07Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know if we should like Phil Collins
- 13:11Speaker 2: and Prince Philip. Prince Philip was nobody. Okay.
- 13:14Speaker 1: So it was named the very first Eastern Science Fiction Convention. Uh,
- 13:20Speaker 1: so it's, uh, widely recognized as the world's first science conviction, uh,
- 13:24Speaker 1: science fiction convention. It took place on October 22nd, 1936
- 13:27Speaker 1: in Philly. So the venue basically was just like, it
- 13:32Speaker 1: was called that independence hall, but then it moved to
- 13:34Speaker 1: a private home. So it was like at someone's house,
- 13:37Speaker 1: I guess, uh, the attendance, a total of nine people attended.
- 13:42Speaker 1: So it's kind of, I don't know. It was really
- 13:43Speaker 1: a convention, but, uh, It was originally suggested by John B.
- 13:49Speaker 1: Michael as a social outing between the New York branch
- 13:52Speaker 1: and the International Scientific Association and the Philadelphia Science Fiction League.
- 13:57Speaker 1: So only nine people came, but basically what they did
- 14:02Speaker 1: was it took place in a living room. There were
- 14:04Speaker 1: no official panels or vendor halls like we have nowadays
- 14:07Speaker 1: when you go to a con. And so basically all
- 14:09Speaker 1: they did was the club formation. They formally established the
- 14:13Speaker 1: Philadelphia Science Fiction Society and electing Milton Rothman as the chairman.
- 14:18Speaker 1: They did an art show. They did some fan publishing.
- 14:20Speaker 1: They inspected a small printing press used to make early
- 14:24Speaker 1: sci-fi fanzines. And the birth of Filk. On the train
- 14:29Speaker 1: ride back to New York, the traveling fans famously sang
- 14:33Speaker 1: altered songs about science fiction, a precursor to... A precursor
- 14:42Speaker 1: to modern filk music.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Which I've never heard. Filk music?
- 14:48Speaker 1: F-I-L-K. I don't know why they're so interested in this
- 14:52Speaker 1: whole filk. A lot of people say that really technically
- 14:58Speaker 1: shouldn't be the first one. There was one a year
- 15:02Speaker 1: after in Leeds in England, which had like a way
- 15:06Speaker 1: bigger convention and like they had speakers and everything like that. So,
- 15:10Speaker 1: Some people say it's 1937. Some people say it's 1936.
- 15:13Speaker 1: So this is the 90th anniversary since, I guess, technically
- 15:16Speaker 1: the very first one. Fuck.
- 15:19Speaker 3: I was thinking after Roswell. That's why I guess, like,
- 15:23Speaker 3: the 40s. Because I think Roswell was, like, 43, if
- 15:25Speaker 3: I'm not mistaken.
- 15:27Speaker 2: Or one of those. So I was thinking after, but
- 15:30Speaker 2: then I just Googled it. So, War of the Worlds.
- 15:34Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 15:34Speaker 2: That's from.
- 15:35Speaker 3: 1898 or something like that so that makes sense that
- 15:39Speaker 3: there would I never think of science fiction before like
- 15:42Speaker 3: radio was really big.
- 15:44Speaker 1: Or TV for sure yeah yeah.
- 15:45Speaker 3: Like it's wild to me because like science fiction was
- 15:48Speaker 3: so because we're isolated for the most part if we
- 15:51Speaker 3: don't have technology so my interpretation back then could have
- 15:55Speaker 3: been a completely different oh fuck.
- 15:57Speaker 1: Well it's really weird too because like exactly what you
- 15:59Speaker 1: just said if a lot of people just lived in
- 16:01Speaker 1: like little rural towns for like their whole life you
- 16:03Speaker 1: know So then somebody like, I don't know, in this
- 16:05Speaker 1: little town was like, I wonder if there's aliens. What
- 16:09Speaker 1: are aliens? Like some people would never even thought of
- 16:11Speaker 1: aliens before, you know?
- 16:13Speaker 3: How do you feel about us being so globalized and
- 16:17Speaker 3: connected that we can have fandom to have a Comic-Con?
- 16:22Speaker 1: That's one great thing I think about the internet and
- 16:24Speaker 1: social media is because then I think for depending how
- 16:27Speaker 1: you use it, some people can see what it's like
- 16:29Speaker 1: around the world. And then they realize, Hey, not everybody's bad.
- 16:32Speaker 1: So it kind of cuts down on like the xenophobia,
- 16:35Speaker 1: but it also can make people just see horrible shit
- 16:38Speaker 1: and not be smart enough to realize it's horrible shit.
- 16:40Speaker 1: So anyways, I think it's good for people to be
- 16:43Speaker 1: able to see all around the world.
- 16:44Speaker 3: You know, I would, so I love comic-con. Like I
- 16:49Speaker 3: went before and it's so fun. Cause I do like
- 16:51Speaker 3: niche kind of things like science fiction is awesome. Like
- 16:54Speaker 3: star Wars or whatever, but like, When I went and
- 16:56Speaker 3: I met Julie Benz from Dexter and Jawbreaker and stuff,
- 17:00Speaker 3: that was so freaking cool. And then Jackson met the
- 17:02Speaker 3: guy from Lord of the Rings, the one from the Goonies.
- 17:05Speaker 1: Sean Astin.
- 17:06Speaker 2: Yeah. And Jackson handled it way better than I did
- 17:08Speaker 2: meeting my famous person.
- 17:10Speaker 3: What was I going to say? But it's just like,
- 17:14Speaker 3: these people make a career. What would they do if
- 17:16Speaker 3: they didn't go to these Comic Cons? Because that's how
- 17:18Speaker 3: a lot of them make an income.
- 17:20Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, and I think a few years ago,
- 17:22Speaker 1: maybe 15, 20 years ago, I guess that's way more
- 17:25Speaker 1: than a few, but 15, 20 years ago, I think
- 17:27Speaker 1: people looked down upon celebrities that went to cons, but
- 17:30Speaker 1: now it's not that way. Now it's like, oh, it's
- 17:33Speaker 1: fucking awesome, and you make a lot of money, so
- 17:35Speaker 1: I don't know why people wouldn't do it.
- 17:37Speaker 3: I think people, if you're listening, celebrities that are kind
- 17:40Speaker 3: of at that, not Julia Roberts celebrities, but ones that
- 17:42Speaker 3: are like- Julia Stiles.
- 17:44Speaker 2: Julia Stiles, invest.
- 17:46Speaker 3: Invest.
- 17:47Speaker 2: Invest.
- 17:48Speaker 3: Like, when you do get that, like, pretty okay paycheck, invest.
- 17:53Speaker 3: And if you make $ 10, 000 going to a Comic-Con, take
- 17:55Speaker 3: about 30% of that and invest it right away.
- 17:59Speaker 2: Because, like.
- 18:00Speaker 3: Actually, don't do that, because I want to meet you
- 18:02Speaker 3: and not pay very much. But I think if I
- 18:04Speaker 3: went to a Comic-Con and I didn't meet... Because I
- 18:07Speaker 3: didn't know any.
- 18:08Speaker 2: Of the celebrities that were going to... I wasn't super
- 18:09Speaker 2: into any of them.
- 18:10Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Because they kept dropping out. Patton Oswalt would have been
- 18:13Speaker 2: fucking awesome.
- 18:14Speaker 1: Yeah, he was really cool.
- 18:15Speaker 3: And.
- 18:19Speaker 2: I don't know what I'm talking about.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Okay, continue. So I had a microphone, and so I
- 18:25Speaker 1: did kind of a little recap. And you know, the
- 18:27Speaker 1: mic worked really well. I got it online. It was
- 18:30Speaker 1: only $ 20. It came with two, and then I bought
- 18:31Speaker 1: these fake microphones, and I just put those mics in there,
- 18:34Speaker 1: and then I wrapped it up looking like Notable Nostalgia.
- 18:36Speaker 1: It looked like a legit mic.
- 18:37Speaker 4: You did.
- 18:38Speaker 2: It looked really good. You really killed it.
- 18:39Speaker 1: But so we're just going to kind of recap, and
- 18:41Speaker 1: they're not too long, but here we go. Hey, what's up,
- 18:47Speaker 1: Nostalgia Nerds? It is Andy. It is 10 a.m. on
- 18:52Speaker 1: September 11th. Never forget. I am going to Comic-Con today,
- 18:58Speaker 1: and I thought it'd be fun to try to interview
- 19:00Speaker 1: a few people, kind of explain what I'm doing throughout
- 19:03Speaker 1: the day. So it's kind of like one of those,
- 19:06Speaker 1: you know, news segments where they're like, hey, I'm checking
- 19:09Speaker 1: out a new place, and it's kind of like a review.
- 19:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 19:12Speaker 1: This is the 2026 Rose City Comic Con. I've been
- 19:15Speaker 1: to Rose City Comic Con a few times. It's always
- 19:18Speaker 1: been a lot of fun. I've never had a bad
- 19:21Speaker 1: experience there. So I'm pretty excited for today. And as
- 19:29Speaker 1: of right now, I think I'm most excited for the
- 19:31Speaker 1: Patton Oswalt panel. They have this retro game stuff there
- 19:38Speaker 1: where they have an original PlayStation, PlayStation 2... N64, NES, Atari's,
- 19:46Speaker 1: just like a bunch of old school systems with over
- 19:48Speaker 1: a thousand games you can choose to play. so i'm
- 19:50Speaker 1: pretty pumped for that i think i'm gonna play some
- 19:53Speaker 1: tony hawk underground um that one's top three of my
- 19:56Speaker 1: favorite tony hawk games i'll do that for a little
- 19:58Speaker 1: bit i'll try to interview the the person running that
- 20:01Speaker 1: and uh yeah but as of right now i'm about
- 20:03Speaker 1: to head out from kaiser to portland So once I
- 20:07Speaker 1: get there and I get parking, I will check in
- 20:09Speaker 1: with you and let you know how it's going. So,
- 20:11Speaker 1: all right. Well, talk to you soon. Boom.
- 20:16Speaker 2: How many times did you have to record that to
- 20:18Speaker 2: get it just right?
- 20:19Speaker 1: That was the only one. Are you serious?
- 20:21Speaker 2: Just right. Dude, you really cut.
- 20:22Speaker 1: It was only one. But yeah.
- 20:24Speaker 2: I would have not been able to do that. So
- 20:26Speaker 2: I'd be like, oh, fuck, fuck.
- 20:27Speaker 1: Fuck, fuck.
- 20:29Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 20:30Speaker 1: So that was just me before going. So nothing too
- 20:33Speaker 1: crazy happened there, but I did him an order. And
- 20:35Speaker 1: I think this one is when I actually get there.
- 20:38Speaker 1: All right. All righty. So just got to the convention center.
- 20:44Speaker 1: Easy drive. No traffic like at all, which was dope.
- 20:47Speaker 1: It took me like 50 minutes. Normally, you know, what
- 20:49Speaker 1: traffic normally takes me like, I don't know, hour 15,
- 20:52Speaker 1: hour 20. We got parking in the convention center, so
- 20:57Speaker 1: I don't have to try to find parking. But I
- 21:00Speaker 1: haven't been here for, I don't know, two or three
- 21:02Speaker 1: years since last time I went to Comic-Con. Parking is
- 21:05Speaker 1: $ 25 now. I'm like, geez louise. But a small price
- 21:10Speaker 1: to pay for a full day of fun. Panels and
- 21:13Speaker 1: stuff are all included. I'm really looking forward to it.
- 21:17Speaker 1: It is officially $ 10. 57. $ 10. 57. I got my elf ears on.
- 21:21Speaker 1: I got my Star Trek communicator badge on. I'm going
- 21:24Speaker 1: low-key today. Shorts, t-shirt, just so I can kind of
- 21:27Speaker 1: enjoy the whole day. You know, comfy shoes on, all
- 21:30Speaker 1: that good stuff. Yeah, so pretty pumped. They're not really
- 21:34Speaker 1: letting people in because it doesn't start till 1. But
- 21:37Speaker 1: I think since I'm media, I get to go in
- 21:39Speaker 1: at 11 to get my badges and stuff, which is
- 21:40Speaker 1: pretty cool. So, yeah, looking forward to it. But, yeah,
- 21:44Speaker 1: that is just kind of what I've been up to.
- 21:47Speaker 1: And I will keep going. Send in audio stuff. I
- 21:54Speaker 1: ended that pretty strong, huh? Yeah, it only took me
- 21:57Speaker 1: 57 minutes to get there from Kaiser to Portland. That's
- 22:00Speaker 1: crazy fast. Okay, two things.
- 22:02Speaker 2: Uh, or three. So one thing would have been if
- 22:04Speaker 2: you accidentally recorded yourself like driving.
- 22:07Speaker 1: Oh, right.
- 22:08Speaker 2: Just like farting or like seeing like slurs.
- 22:11Speaker 1: But I'm like, no, Jeff, don't stop it. Just an
- 22:15Speaker 1: hour of driving audio.
- 22:17Speaker 3: Like holding them. Like, no, we need to release it
- 22:19Speaker 3: to the public. The other one would have been like,
- 22:22Speaker 3: cause I was so bummed. So I like dressing up
- 22:24Speaker 3: like for sure. Like I love wearing like sequins and
- 22:26Speaker 3: like fur and stuff. And, uh, I would have loved
- 22:30Speaker 3: to have dressed up if I would have been able
- 22:32Speaker 3: to go, but, um, I think it would have been
- 22:34Speaker 3: maybe awkward if you would have dressed up as like
- 22:36Speaker 3: a worm or, you.
- 22:37Speaker 4: Know what I mean?
- 22:37Speaker 3: Like if you're just like, like what's like a ridiculous costume,
- 22:41Speaker 3: somebody like a velociraptor.
- 22:43Speaker 1: No, actually I've seen people like that.
- 22:46Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 22:46Speaker 1: The dinosaurs.
- 22:47Speaker 2: I want to do like one, like Velocipastor and go,
- 22:50Speaker 2: that would be dope. How cool would that be if
- 22:51Speaker 2: one of the stars was there?
- 22:53Speaker 1: I'd be like, dude, all you need to do is
- 22:55Speaker 1: just get a velociraptor suit and then a, past her
- 22:59Speaker 1: neck and i feel like some people would get.
- 23:01Speaker 3: It or you can just wear like little things like
- 23:04Speaker 3: velasa like rap and then tur you know you like
- 23:08Speaker 3: people to figure out what you are like yeah i was.
- 23:12Speaker 1: An npc one year and i had this big exclamation
- 23:14Speaker 1: point on top of my head which was really cool so.
- 23:17Speaker 3: Oh the last thing i was gonna say is i
- 23:18Speaker 3: think if they did ever did a reboot where they
- 23:20Speaker 3: don't have any of the original cast but completely redo
- 23:23Speaker 3: it the show i A velocifaster?
- 23:25Speaker 2: No, a full house.
- 23:26Speaker 4: Oh.
- 23:28Speaker 2: And, like, have you as Danny.
- 23:30Speaker 1: Okay.
- 23:30Speaker 2: Dude, like, that would be cool. Like, instead of, like,
- 23:31Speaker 2: being OCD with cleaning.
- 23:33Speaker 3: You're, like, like, chugging beers and, like, like, like, reading about, like, Nazis.
- 23:41Speaker 1: Like, should it be, uh, instead of three girls, I
- 23:44Speaker 1: have three sons?
- 23:48Speaker 3: Three sons, but, like, we have to make those special, too.
- 23:50Speaker 3: Two of them are conjoined twins.
- 23:53Speaker 2: Ah. Because we need to, you know, get on that.
- 23:55Speaker 2: And then the other one.
- 23:58Speaker 3: Was, like, it's, like, a hamster, but you don't realize that, like,
- 24:01Speaker 3: right before the hamster boy named Frank was going to die,
- 24:06Speaker 3: you put his soul into a hamster. So it is
- 24:11Speaker 3: your son, but in the body of a hamster. So
- 24:14Speaker 3: a lot of the episodes have dealing with, like, hamster shenanigans.
- 24:17Speaker 1: But the hamster doesn't speak english no.
- 24:20Speaker 3: The hamster's your son i know yeah yeah but the
- 24:22Speaker 3: audience can't hear so it's just like and then sometimes
- 24:26Speaker 3: like like episodes could be like because one of his
- 24:28Speaker 3: best friends like a butterfly you know like oh yeah
- 24:30Speaker 3: there's always like you know there's the world of of
- 24:34Speaker 3: your hamster.
- 24:35Speaker 1: And then instead of jesse it's jesse spano but the
- 24:38Speaker 1: character from saved by the bell we just.
- 24:41Speaker 2: Take clips from saved by the bell and put them in.
- 24:45Speaker 1: But we're not gonna audio mixing so it's just me
- 24:48Speaker 1: talking over like zach talking about some dumb shit like
- 24:52Speaker 1: how we used.
- 24:53Speaker 3: To do when we did the uh countdown back in
- 24:56Speaker 3: the day like four or five years ago or whatever
- 24:58Speaker 3: We did, like, the best radio, like, the songs of
- 25:01Speaker 3: the 90s or whatever.
- 25:02Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 25:02Speaker 3: And back in those days, we would, you couldn't hear
- 25:05Speaker 3: us because the music was so loud. Like, we would,
- 25:10Speaker 3: the song wouldn't be done playing yet.
- 25:12Speaker 2: The clip, and you would start talking. Oh, man.
- 25:15Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 25:16Speaker 2: Those first episodes, like, I was so nervous to do
- 25:20Speaker 2: the first episode. Like, it was, like, a Pixar one.
- 25:22Speaker 1: Yeah, well, yeah, it was a Pixar where we just
- 25:24Speaker 1: talked about Toy Story the whole time.
- 25:27Speaker 2: And now we're just, like, we're talking about, like, Helen
- 25:29Speaker 2: Mirren or, like, whatever.
- 25:31Speaker 1: And I didn't know how to edit at the time. Yeah,
- 25:33Speaker 1: I was like, I think I could do it because
- 25:34Speaker 1: I was in a band, so.
- 25:35Speaker 2: Right on.
- 25:36Speaker 3: Okay.
- 25:36Speaker 2: All right.
- 25:38Speaker 1: I'm not going to play all of them because, like,
- 25:39Speaker 1: I'm just going to play the ones that I think
- 25:41Speaker 1: are going to be good.
- 25:44Speaker 2: Why? No, that's your bad one.
- 25:45Speaker 1: Let me see here. Okay, this one's waiting. I don't
- 25:51Speaker 1: know about that one. It's only 40 seconds. I always
- 25:55Speaker 1: like going on Fridays because it's not as busy. Because
- 25:58Speaker 1: it's the first day. A lot of people can't get
- 26:00Speaker 1: the time off of work. So it's a little more
- 26:02Speaker 1: fun to go on Friday. It's not as crowded. Traffic
- 26:05Speaker 1: was easy. I have about an hour 15 until the
- 26:09Speaker 1: con officially opens. But so far so good. I'm going
- 26:14Speaker 1: to be mainly posted up around the entrance at the
- 26:17Speaker 1: exhibit hall C.
- 26:19Speaker 2: Because....
- 26:22Speaker 1: It's almost a month ago.
- 26:23Speaker 3: Why?
- 26:23Speaker 1: This isn't important. I was about to sign the comic
- 26:26Speaker 1: book minor thread, which is dope. Why did I need
- 26:28Speaker 1: to tell you where I was going to be? And
- 26:31Speaker 1: it's a dope comic, so hopefully I can get one
- 26:32Speaker 1: of those badges that's first come, first serve. But yeah,
- 26:36Speaker 1: so far, so great. I'm enjoying the vibes, and I'm
- 26:38Speaker 1: excited for today.
- 26:41Speaker 2: So far, so great. I like that. It's usually so far,
- 26:44Speaker 2: so good.
- 26:44Speaker 3: Right.
- 26:45Speaker 2: But you're like, so far, so great. I said hour
- 26:46Speaker 2: 15 till it opens.
- 26:47Speaker 1: That means 11.45. So what was I doing for 45 minutes?
- 26:53Speaker 5: I'm just standing there.
- 26:55Speaker 2: I like that there's been... Is that the second clip
- 26:57Speaker 2: or third clip?
- 26:58Speaker 5: Third.
- 26:59Speaker 2: We haven't even made it inside yet.
- 27:04Speaker 1: Oh, man. I did interview the Star Wars guy.
- 27:07Speaker 2: Here's me on the way to something.
- 27:13Speaker 3: Like, how is Disney.
- 27:14Speaker 1: I'm standing in this location.
- 27:17Speaker 6: I'm standing in this location waiting to do the thing
- 27:19Speaker 6: the episode's about.
- 27:21Speaker 2: How was your vacation? Well, let me tell you about
- 27:22Speaker 2: the plane ride. Let me tell you about the plane ride.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, man. This one says Star Wars guy.
- 27:29Speaker 7: One of my favorite things about Comic-Con... any Comic-Cons, is, like.
- 27:45Speaker 2: People watching.
- 27:45Speaker 1: Because you see people that have been here, like, you know,
- 27:49Speaker 1: a bunch of times, and they know the vibe and everything.
- 27:52Speaker 1: But my favorite is when you see people here for
- 27:55Speaker 1: the first year, and they're kind of like, hey, I
- 28:00Speaker 1: found my people. And then you can tell that, like, they, like,
- 28:03Speaker 1: the next year, they want to... You know, cosplay and
- 28:09Speaker 1: do things like that. So it's just a really cool experience.
- 28:11Speaker 1: And you see so many smiles. Like, I just saw
- 28:14Speaker 1: a really cute picture of this little kid. He saw
- 28:17Speaker 1: Spider-Man and he was too afraid to ask if he'd
- 28:20Speaker 1: take a picture. So his dad's like, I'll ask. And
- 28:22Speaker 1: Spider-Man's like, yeah, man, for sure. So it's just cute.
- 28:25Speaker 1: I think right in front of me is an Imperial
- 28:32Speaker 1: Lieutenant or something. Imperial... Lieutenant or something from Star Wars
- 28:37Speaker 1: I was trying to talk quietly too Because it's kind
- 28:40Speaker 1: of Like if I had some drinks in me I'd
- 28:43Speaker 1: be totally fine But it's kind of like I don't
- 28:46Speaker 1: want to say embarrassing but like I'm just Talking to
- 28:48Speaker 1: like a mic that I'm holding I don't know.
- 28:50Speaker 8: I think with me there it would have been just
- 28:53Speaker 8: perfect So I was trying to like talk quietly and
- 28:55Speaker 8: I was like walking around Because I didn't want to
- 28:56Speaker 8: stay in one spot where somebody could like Over listen
- 28:58Speaker 8: so But I did this is where I interview a
- 29:01Speaker 8: Star Wars guest Can I.
- 29:02Speaker 1: Ask you a few questions As long as you are
- 29:04Speaker 1: not a rebel sympathizer. I am not a rebel sympathizer,
- 29:07Speaker 1: I promise. Very well then. Could you explain a little
- 29:09Speaker 1: bit about what Star Wars Experience is?
- 29:11Speaker 5: Well, we have multiple areas that you can experience inside,
- 29:15Speaker 5: including a droid DJ booth.
- 29:17Speaker 1: Oh, nice, nice.
- 29:17Speaker 5: We have an AT-ST walker. We have a place where
- 29:21Speaker 5: you can get photographs with various Star Wars characters.
- 29:24Speaker 1: Awesome.
- 29:24Speaker 5: We are here raising money for, I believe it's Magic Wheelchair.
- 29:28Speaker 1: Oh, cool.
- 29:29Speaker 5: All donations, 100% of them, go to the charity.
- 29:33Speaker 1: And none to us.
- 29:34Speaker 5: We do this because we love it.
- 29:35Speaker 1: Oh, that's great, dudes. Yeah, I know we love helping out. Yeah,
- 29:38Speaker 1: I'm part of a podcast called Notable Nostalgia. We help
- 29:40Speaker 1: with a lot of charities as well, which is great.
- 29:42Speaker 1: Quick question, how long does it take to become the
- 29:44Speaker 1: rank you are? Well, I've been part of the 501st
- 29:47Speaker 1: for 14 years. Okay, all right.
- 29:50Speaker 5: I don't really have a rank.
- 29:52Speaker 1: I'm just a faceless minion of the Empire. Well, cool.
- 29:55Speaker 5: Protecting the Earth from the scum of the galaxy.
- 29:57Speaker 1: Well, thank you so much for your time. I really
- 29:59Speaker 1: appreciate it.
- 29:59Speaker 4: You're welcome.
- 29:59Speaker 1: I see you're part of Space Force, though. Yes, yes, yes.
- 30:03Speaker 1: Carry on. Move along. Thank you. He meant to say Starfleet,
- 30:08Speaker 1: but he said Space Force.
- 30:10Speaker 2: Oh, he's a MAGA person.
- 30:12Speaker 4: Maybe.
- 30:12Speaker 1: I just think, I think it was a dig because
- 30:16Speaker 1: he was Star Wars and I had my Star Trek communicator.
- 30:19Speaker 1: I think he knew it was fucking Starfleet.
- 30:21Speaker 2: Have you seen Star Wars?
- 30:22Speaker 1: I've seen two of them. Which, wait, which one?
- 30:25Speaker 2: Which ones?
- 30:25Speaker 1: The first two from like the 70s.
- 30:27Speaker 2: Oh, so you've never seen like Jabba the Hutt, Bikini.
- 30:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's the second one.
- 30:31Speaker 2: That's the third one, Return of the Jedi.
- 30:33Speaker 1: I've seen this.
- 30:33Speaker 3: The second one's Empire Strikes Back with the snow. And
- 30:36Speaker 3: the first one's like more desert. The third one is
- 30:39Speaker 3: desert at the beginning and then forest in the end
- 30:41Speaker 3: with the Ewoks.
- 30:42Speaker 1: I may have skipped the second one by accident thinking
- 30:44Speaker 1: it was the first one. you know what i.
- 30:46Speaker 3: Mean besides terminator 2 judgment day where empire strikes back
- 30:50Speaker 3: is the best sequel of our all time the conflict
- 30:54Speaker 3: the emotion because the first movie is just world building
- 31:00Speaker 3: okay so the second one we actually get into it
- 31:03Speaker 3: and then the whole conflict became good and okay who's
- 31:06Speaker 3: worse maga or the empire I don't.
- 31:08Speaker 1: Know anything about Star Wars.
- 31:10Speaker 2: Darth Vader?
- 31:11Speaker 1: Well, I know that, but I don't know what their
- 31:13Speaker 1: mission objectives were.
- 31:14Speaker 2: To colonize everybody?
- 31:15Speaker 1: So are you.
- 31:18Speaker 1: Wait, no, I don't know. I've never seen the movie.
- 31:20Speaker 2: No, I'm telling you.
- 31:21Speaker 5: Oh, okay.
- 31:22Speaker 3: Like, they colonize all the planets and do high taxes, and, like, they're, like, fascist.
- 31:26Speaker 2: But they, like, can choke people. And, like, not in
- 31:28Speaker 2: a good way.
- 31:31Speaker 1: Uh, so... I'm just kidding.
- 31:32Speaker 2: No, we don't... We love MAGA people.
- 31:34Speaker 1: I was gonna say.
- 31:35Speaker 2: Wait, do we?
- 31:35Speaker 1: I was gonna say probably MAGA since, like... I guess
- 31:39Speaker 1: a fictional fascist isn't really messing... Are you talking about, like,
- 31:43Speaker 1: if I was in that situation?
- 31:44Speaker 2: Like, who do you think is better? The Empire?
- 31:47Speaker 1: Probably the Empire, though.
- 31:48Speaker 2: Or MAGA.
- 31:49Speaker 1: I would probably go Empire.
- 31:51Speaker 5: Oh.
- 31:52Speaker 1: Because it's, you know, fiction and fun.
- 31:55Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Like, well, yeah, it's fiction. Yeah, I would... Like,
- 31:59Speaker 2: would you rather get shot in real life or stabbed
- 32:01Speaker 2: in fake life?
- 32:03Speaker 5: Like, what?
- 32:04Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 32:05Speaker 7: Oh, my gosh.
- 32:06Speaker 2: So, no. So, okay, question. So he was dressed up
- 32:11Speaker 2: as a character. He looked good. Like he looked like
- 32:13Speaker 2: he was from Star Wars.
- 32:14Speaker 1: He was on the bad side. He was an Imperial.
- 32:17Speaker 2: His costume looked good.
- 32:18Speaker 1: Yeah, it was legit. Everybody in that Star Wars experience
- 32:20Speaker 1: costume was like super legit. There was this Jar Jar
- 32:22Speaker 1: Binks who was like nine feet tall and he was
- 32:25Speaker 1: walking around and stuff like, oh, crazy.
- 32:27Speaker 3: With how poorly received he was in the Phantom Menace,
- 32:31Speaker 3: that might have been the real Jar Jar Binks.
- 32:32Speaker 1: Well, when I walked into the Star Wars experience, they
- 32:34Speaker 1: have like... Yeah, take that. Jeff just went there. There
- 32:41Speaker 1: was like this jail and Jar Jar Binks was in there.
- 32:44Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, that's funny. But it was
- 32:46Speaker 1: the person in the suit. I didn't know that I
- 32:48Speaker 1: thought it was just like a dummy because it was
- 32:50Speaker 1: so big and then he walked out.
- 32:51Speaker 3: I was like oh shit it was a dummy oh
- 32:54Speaker 3: yeah yeah yeah that's so cool I love that people
- 32:56Speaker 3: just like lean into it.
- 32:57Speaker 2: So a lot of people were dressed up there.
- 32:59Speaker 1: A lot of people dressed up yeah it was dope
- 33:02Speaker 1: um so oh one really cool thing that happened I
- 33:08Speaker 1: was in this booth or I saw this booth and
- 33:10Speaker 1: this guy goes hey go check it out I'm like
- 33:11Speaker 1: alright cool and I see this hammer guitar and I
- 33:14Speaker 1: have a hammer it's my favorite brand of guitar because
- 33:16Speaker 1: cheap trick of course So he had a Hamer that
- 33:18Speaker 1: was originally owned by Johnny Ramone, and the story that
- 33:22Speaker 1: he was telling me behind it was awesome.
- 33:24Speaker 2: That's awesome. So you were told an awesome story, and
- 33:28Speaker 2: you're just sharing it with us? Like, that far? Dude,
- 33:33Speaker 2: you need to work on the meat of the story.
- 33:37Speaker 2: You're really good at setups, but then, like, the payoff
- 33:40Speaker 2: is so.
- 33:42Speaker 2: I'm just kidding.
- 33:43Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. Just kidding. Just kidding.
- 33:45Speaker 6: I was at Comic-Con and this guy told me a
- 33:47Speaker 6: really cool story. And when he was telling me the story,
- 33:50Speaker 6: I was standing in the northeastern section of the exhibit hall. Well,
- 34:00Speaker 6: I think I can get into it, but a lot
- 34:01Speaker 6: of people don't know the names I'm about to say.
- 34:04Speaker 1: Or even think of a shit about Hammer Guitars. I'm like,
- 34:06Speaker 1: I don't know. Do I really want to go into it?
- 34:08Speaker 1: I thought it was cool.
- 34:09Speaker 2: People listening, Google it.
- 34:11Speaker 1: Google it.
- 34:12Speaker 2: You're going to learn something.
- 34:13Speaker 3: Listening to Andy talk about stuff, you might think it's
- 34:16Speaker 3: not going somewhere, but he hides messages in his story.
- 34:19Speaker 2: He's like the Taylor Swift of Comic-Con reporting.
- 34:24Speaker 1: Yeah. So, oh, here we go. Heck yeah. So they
- 34:31Speaker 1: have cantinas here, which sell alcohol. And I was looking
- 34:35Speaker 1: and I'm like, is it too early to start drinking?
- 34:37Speaker 1: And then I remembered, it's never too early to believe
- 34:40Speaker 1: in yourself. So I'm trying a new beer I've never
- 34:42Speaker 1: had before. It is called, it's a gigantic brewing company.
- 34:47Speaker 1: It's a sweet tart. Oh, I didn't see that. God
- 34:49Speaker 1: damn it. I hate tart stuff. But it's Mary and
- 34:52Speaker 1: Barry Lemon Tart. I feel like my jowls are going
- 34:55Speaker 1: to be hurting, but... getting a little buzz and do
- 34:59Speaker 1: some comic-con stuff i'm pretty excited.
- 35:01Speaker 2: Yeah oh.
- 35:05Speaker 1: They have a opb uh documentary today showing at three
- 35:09Speaker 1: which i'm pretty excited for it's about comics and pacific
- 35:13Speaker 1: northwest which is gonna be fun there's r2d2 right in
- 35:16Speaker 1: front of me moving around oh yeah we didn't even
- 35:19Speaker 1: know him greetings r2 r is an rc car first
- 35:22Speaker 1: name mr d2 yeah so don't.
- 35:25Speaker 3: Be acting like your buddies with r2d2 you've been in
- 35:27Speaker 3: nine nine or ten star wars.
- 35:29Speaker 2: Movies and you have only seen two well like a.
- 35:31Speaker 1: Few years ago i went and there was like one
- 35:33Speaker 1: rc r2d2 and everybody was like oh shit there were
- 35:37Speaker 1: so many this year to the point to where some
- 35:39Speaker 1: sections of the con it was like There are too many.
- 35:42Speaker 1: You couldn't get around them.
- 35:43Speaker 2: So, listener, when I've gone to, it's like the same thing.
- 35:46Speaker 2: They look like R2-D2s.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like a full-size R2-D2.
- 35:49Speaker 3: When there's multiples of those, it's really chaotic. And if
- 35:53Speaker 3: you have, like, get overstimulated, they might cause you anxiety.
- 35:58Speaker 1: And they would talk to people. So, like, somebody would
- 36:01Speaker 1: walk up and they'd go, hey, R2-D2. And they'd go, wee-wee-woo,
- 36:04Speaker 1: or whatever, you know.
- 36:04Speaker 2: Jeremy would hate it.
- 36:06Speaker 5: R2-D2.
- 36:09Speaker 2: Like, I just, like, everything about that sounds like it
- 36:12Speaker 2: pissed Jeremy off.
- 36:15Speaker 1: I only have a few more, so we'll hit when... What?
- 36:21Speaker 1: So the thing I was most excited for was the
- 36:23Speaker 1: Patton Oswalt convention panel, and so I got up and
- 36:27Speaker 1: I asked Patton Oswalt a question, and it was awesome.
- 36:32Speaker 1: Before I bring that up, they were talking about this
- 36:36Speaker 1: new comic book that they wrote called Minor Threats. I
- 36:38Speaker 1: bought a copy. It's fucking awesome. So Dark Horse makes it.
- 36:43Speaker 1: Dark Horse is in Portland, which is awesome. So if
- 36:46Speaker 1: you're into comic books, definitely get that Minor Threats. It's
- 36:49Speaker 1: really great, really cool concept. Essentially, it's kind of like,
- 36:53Speaker 1: what would the lower end villains do in the real world?
- 36:57Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Because you have the Joker
- 37:00Speaker 1: breaking out of prison. And then he's like, I want
- 37:04Speaker 1: to make all the fish smile. And then, like, Batman
- 37:06Speaker 1: beats the shit out of all these, like, underlings to
- 37:08Speaker 1: try to get the information where Joker is. And Patton's like,
- 37:12Speaker 1: why wouldn't they just give up the Joker so they
- 37:14Speaker 1: can go, like, rob banks? Like, why do they give
- 37:17Speaker 1: a shit if, like, the fish are smiling? You know
- 37:19Speaker 1: what I mean? There's some crazy shit. Anyways, so it's
- 37:21Speaker 1: a really cool concept called Minor Threats. Patton Oswalt is
- 37:24Speaker 1: one of the people who created it, so check it out.
- 37:25Speaker 1: But here's me asking Patton Oswalt a question. One thing
- 37:30Speaker 1: I noticed about Comic-Con, I got the wrong clip, but
- 37:32Speaker 1: one thing I've noticed recently about Comic-Cons is on all the,
- 37:35Speaker 1: not all of them, but a lot of the booths,
- 37:36Speaker 1: it says no AI, all human generated stuff, which great.
- 37:41Speaker 2: I love that.
- 37:42Speaker 1: But when I was a kid, if somebody would tell
- 37:45Speaker 1: me that like, hey, in the future, robots are going
- 37:48Speaker 1: to be making art and people are going to be
- 37:49Speaker 1: mad about it. I'd be like, that sounds like something
- 37:52Speaker 1: that's going to happen in like a thousand years. And
- 37:54Speaker 1: it was only a few years later.
- 37:58Speaker 2: Um, really quick.
- 37:59Speaker 3: I think that for the record, if anyone's listening, like,
- 38:02Speaker 3: like technology, like AI is listening.
- 38:04Speaker 2: Andy, I are cool with you.
- 38:05Speaker 1: Oh, a hundred. I say please. And thank you to
- 38:07Speaker 1: Alexa every day.
- 38:08Speaker 3: We need to really focus on that. Cause Andy, I
- 38:10Speaker 3: really don't want to get murdered. Cause like the scientists
- 38:13Speaker 3: and these tech people are saying 10% chance in the
- 38:16Speaker 3: next 10 years that we're going to die.
- 38:18Speaker 1: Not me. I say please. And thank you.
- 38:20Speaker 2: I don't want to, I don't want that to happen.
- 38:23Speaker 3: So, or we, I mean, that does happen.
- 38:26Speaker 2: Cause it's probably going to happen.
- 38:27Speaker 3: Um, I want to be living and I like, I'm
- 38:29Speaker 3: cool if they like make me part machine.
- 38:31Speaker 1: Oh, for sure.
- 38:31Speaker 2: So I can be, and I think that would be
- 38:32Speaker 2: really good. It would be like Borg.
- 38:35Speaker 1: Oh, I know.
- 38:35Speaker 2: Okay.
- 38:36Speaker 1: It would be like a good board.
- 38:37Speaker 3: Let's propose that when there's like the, like Terminator takeover,
- 38:41Speaker 3: we're like, Hey, we're going to join you.
- 38:42Speaker 2: Let's start Borg.
- 38:44Speaker 1: But we'll be good Borg. So it'd be called Gorg.
- 38:46Speaker 3: Who would, what makes Borg doesn't see good or bad.
- 38:50Speaker 3: They seem to see objective, right? Yeah.
- 38:53Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 38:53Speaker 1: Kind of in a way they don't have emotion. Well,
- 38:56Speaker 1: one broke out and did. What's his name? Can't think
- 38:59Speaker 1: of it, but they found him. And what the fuck
- 39:01Speaker 1: was his name? It was a single Borg that had
- 39:05Speaker 1: was like broke out of the system.
- 39:07Speaker 3: Do you think if it was a good Borg, it
- 39:09Speaker 3: would be a good thing? Like if they were going
- 39:12Speaker 3: in like saving planets and stuff like that would be
- 39:14Speaker 3: something you'd be interested in doing?
- 39:17Speaker 1: You know, I've always said this there. I don't think
- 39:18Speaker 1: there's anything inherently good or bad, you know, because something
- 39:21Speaker 1: that can seem really good could have like these negative
- 39:23Speaker 1: outcomes that nobody would see. So at face value, if
- 39:27Speaker 1: the board was good and they were going and like,
- 39:29Speaker 1: you know, making plans better and helping people i would
- 39:31Speaker 1: assume yeah for sure but we don't know the negative
- 39:34Speaker 1: sides of that you know were there stars there that
- 39:37Speaker 1: um people dress up like like i know like you
- 39:40Speaker 1: dress up as like console you know whatever like like
- 39:43Speaker 1: if i was gonna go meet you know Lady Gaga
- 39:46Speaker 1: or something.
- 39:47Speaker 3: I would dress up like Lady Gaga. Like, was there
- 39:49Speaker 3: any of that kind of thing where, like, people dressed
- 39:50Speaker 3: up like people that were there?
- 39:52Speaker 1: Um... I don't... Yeah, I don't know.
- 39:55Speaker 4: Maybe.
- 39:55Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of who's all.
- 39:57Speaker 2: I think that would be so fun if we, like... Next.
- 40:00Speaker 3: Time there is one, we pick, like, a celebrity, and
- 40:02Speaker 3: we're like, okay, them. And we look up paparazzi photos,
- 40:05Speaker 3: and then we print out the paparazzi photo, frame it.
- 40:09Speaker 2: And then we try to.
- 40:09Speaker 1: Oh, you mean not their character. You mean as them.
- 40:11Speaker 2: Yeah. And then we... And then we dress up like
- 40:15Speaker 2: that paparazzi picture.
- 40:17Speaker 3: Like, oh, hey, Sarah Michelle Gellar.
- 40:19Speaker 2: Oh, what are you dressed up? I'm dressed up as
- 40:21Speaker 2: you from 1996. And then.
- 40:24Speaker 1: I dress up as her the day of.
- 40:26Speaker 2: Yeah. And this is you now. This is you now.
- 40:30Speaker 2: And then you push her.
- 40:31Speaker 3: We tie her up and then you take over.
- 40:32Speaker 2: For the day.
- 40:33Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 40:33Speaker 1: And then we just.
- 40:35Speaker 3: Wait, are you underneath this mask? Are you Sarah Michelle Gellar?
- 40:38Speaker 3: And then you take off your mask and you're trying
- 40:40Speaker 3: to pull up Hewitt.
- 40:40Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my God.
- 40:41Speaker 1: I finally got the recognition.
- 40:43Speaker 3: Okay. All right.
- 40:44Speaker 1: So here's the question, I think.
- 40:46Speaker 2: Well, hello.
- 40:46Speaker 1: I was actually hoping that maybe I can get some
- 40:48Speaker 1: advice or maybe a tip. I have started and ended,
- 40:52Speaker 1: I don't know, six or seven different screenplays because I
- 40:56Speaker 1: kind of feel like it's a little too similar to
- 40:58Speaker 1: something else. When you are writing, do you ever get that?
- 41:02Speaker 1: And then do you just end it? Do you like
- 41:05Speaker 1: maybe some tips? How would I get past that? I'll
- 41:08Speaker 1: get you right past it right now.
- 41:10Speaker 4: It's not what it's about, it's how it's about it.
- 41:14Speaker 4: If you go watch Creature from the Black Lagoon, it's
- 41:17Speaker 4: basically the same plot as Jaws. If you go watch Them,
- 41:20Speaker 4: it's the same plot as Aliens. But they do different
- 41:24Speaker 4: things with it. There's only so many plots. If you
- 41:27Speaker 4: really want to break down the world of science fiction,
- 41:29Speaker 4: there's three science fiction plots. If only, what if, and
- 41:34Speaker 4: if this goes on. And it's the way you work
- 41:36Speaker 4: those variations together and make it original, and make it
- 41:39Speaker 4: your own. So get over that anxiety.
- 41:41Speaker 2: It's not what it's about.
- 41:43Speaker 6: It's how it's about it.
- 41:45Speaker 4: How are you going about it?
- 41:46Speaker 1: Cool.
- 41:47Speaker 2: Fuck.
- 41:48Speaker 1: Great answer. I'm like, holy shit.
- 41:51Speaker 2: When you told me, let's give him his flowers.
- 41:54Speaker 1: Oh, there's one more. Get it finished. Finished. Finished. Don't
- 41:58Speaker 1: get it right.
- 41:58Speaker 3: Get it written. Yeah.
- 42:00Speaker 5: Finished.
- 42:01Speaker 2: Sounds good. Love that, too.
- 42:03Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 42:03Speaker 2: Love the energy.
- 42:04Speaker 3: But when you told me that's what your question was,
- 42:06Speaker 3: I was like, oh, that's really cool. But I was
- 42:08Speaker 3: not expecting that.
- 42:09Speaker 1: Yeah, it was wonderful.
- 42:10Speaker 2: He's talked about this before probably, huh?
- 42:13Speaker 1: Yeah, he's written a lot.
- 42:16Speaker 2: What's his writing path? What were you going to.
- 42:18Speaker 1: I was going to say, if I was... If I
- 42:20Speaker 1: had to also answer the question, I'd be like... There's
- 42:24Speaker 1: a few things that have helped me in the past
- 42:26Speaker 1: and made me these great writers. And basically all that
- 42:29Speaker 1: boils down to, and I keep going for a long thing, is...
- 42:31Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm just talking about.
- 42:34Speaker 6: I always set people up, and then it was nothing.
- 42:37Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 42:38Speaker 2: Just talk about it. Didn't he write a book with
- 42:42Speaker 2: a dead wife?
- 42:44Speaker 1: Well, I think he just did the end of it.
- 42:46Speaker 1: I think it was mainly written, and then he kind
- 42:48Speaker 1: of let some of it, you know, kind of written
- 42:51Speaker 1: it with other people that were working with her.
- 42:53Speaker 2: Oh, to finish her book.
- 42:54Speaker 1: Oh, fuck.
- 42:54Speaker 2: That's fucking emotional.
- 42:56Speaker 4: Right?
- 42:56Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. But he did Ratatouille.
- 42:58Speaker 2: He wrote Ratatouille?
- 42:59Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
- 43:02Speaker 2: That's a good movie.
- 43:02Speaker 1: It is a great movie.
- 43:03Speaker 2: I love him so much. Cause I love King of Queens.
- 43:06Speaker 1: Right.
- 43:06Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 43:07Speaker 2: It's one of my favorite shows. Like I can watch.
- 43:09Speaker 1: Oh, I love it.
- 43:10Speaker 2: And I watched the fuck out of it. Anyways.
- 43:12Speaker 1: Um, I got his autograph, which is cool. And fuck.
- 43:16Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 43:16Speaker 1: I think it's funny. His standup bit was, uh, that Dr.
- 43:19Speaker 1: Pepper bit is so fun. He was doing a open mic.
- 43:22Speaker 1: There's some dude that he thinks is probably like on heroin.
- 43:25Speaker 1: He was up on the mic. He kept like telling
- 43:27Speaker 1: a joke and then passing out, waking up and he goes,
- 43:29Speaker 1: and his name was Dr. Pepper. Anyways, Just so great.
- 43:32Speaker 3: I think he's one of the funniest people, but I
- 43:34Speaker 3: don't find him very sexual. Like, did you feel like
- 43:43Speaker 3: you can you picture it now that you've seen him
- 43:44Speaker 3: in person?
- 43:45Speaker 2: You've seen his skin. He looks exactly how you imagine.
- 43:49Speaker 1: Well, he looks exactly like if you looked him up today,
- 43:52Speaker 1: you'd be like, no, that's that's 100 percent it.
- 43:54Speaker 2: You know, that's surreal to see.
- 43:57Speaker 1: Being that close?
- 43:57Speaker 2: Yeah, kind of, yeah. Seeing someone in real life is weird.
- 44:00Speaker 1: Well, I've seen a lot of people. One time, well, like, okay,
- 44:03Speaker 1: when I saw Patton Oswalt, I was like, oh, that's
- 44:05Speaker 1: no shocker. That's definitely Patton Oswalt. When I saw Jason Momoa,
- 44:12Speaker 1: I was like, that motherfucker's huge. Like, it caught me
- 44:15Speaker 1: off guard how buff and, like, tall he was and stuff.
- 44:17Speaker 2: Oh, my God. I love Jason Momoa.
- 44:20Speaker 1: Yeah, he's dope.
- 44:21Speaker 2: So hot.
- 44:23Speaker 1: I don't know if he's as good a writer as Patton, though.
- 44:25Speaker 2: Yeah, that's awesome that you met him.
- 44:26Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 44:27Speaker 1: It was a lot of fun um yeah no i
- 44:30Speaker 1: forgot because i haven't been for a few years and
- 44:31Speaker 1: i forgot how much i really enjoy it so i'm.
- 44:33Speaker 3: Did you listen to his words to you though because
- 44:36Speaker 3: i do like believe you're so creative and like you're
- 44:38Speaker 3: a writer like that's your soul and you're a creator.
- 44:42Speaker 1: And that's the thing is i put a timeline to
- 44:43Speaker 1: finish my script or my screenplay that i'm writing right
- 44:45Speaker 1: now so it should be done like a week or
- 44:47Speaker 1: two so make.
- 44:47Speaker 3: It happen like literally make it happen like Look at
- 44:51Speaker 3: these little fuckwads that are coming up in the world.
- 44:53Speaker 3: They're AI fuckers. I'm pro-AI, but I'm going to become
- 44:57Speaker 3: one of you.
- 44:57Speaker 2: If you take over.
- 44:59Speaker 3: But I'm against AI other than that. But I also
- 45:03Speaker 3: am not the best person. So it's okay if I... No,
- 45:06Speaker 3: I do a lot of fucking good. You do a
- 45:08Speaker 3: lot of good.
- 45:09Speaker 2: Maybe that balances out. Can I get a free pass
- 45:11Speaker 2: to use AI because I do good shit? Yeah. I
- 45:14Speaker 2: went on a walk the other night with Gus.
- 45:16Speaker 3: And I'm to the point because I keep picking up garbage.
- 45:21Speaker 3: So now I bring a bucket and I grab her.
- 45:24Speaker 1: That's great. That's really cool.
- 45:25Speaker 3: And I'm walking around picking up garbage because I'm not
- 45:28Speaker 3: in my neighborhood.
- 45:30Speaker 1: Yeah, that's great. Yeah, the first thing you need to
- 45:31Speaker 1: start making the world better is making your surroundings better.
- 45:33Speaker 2: No, I want to get to know the neighbor so
- 45:34Speaker 2: I can know the gossip.
- 45:35Speaker 1: Ah, there we go.
- 45:36Speaker 3: Because our neighbor is a younger girl. She has two
- 45:39Speaker 3: young girls and she's dating on and off. I see
- 45:41Speaker 3: different guys coming in. Oh, okay.
- 45:43Speaker 2: And I want to know more about that. So, I'll
- 45:46Speaker 2: just ask Julie. She's the gossip.
- 45:47Speaker 1: Okay.
- 45:48Speaker 2: So, what else was going on there?
- 45:50Speaker 1: I basically left after that. I haven't been to a
- 45:53Speaker 1: con for so long. My legs are stuck. I was like, oh, man. Because,
- 45:57Speaker 1: you know, standing on your feet for eight hours on
- 45:58Speaker 1: the cement.
- 46:00Speaker 2: Put it in a carpeted room.
- 46:01Speaker 1: And it is a little different, too, when you're just standing. Like, walking,
- 46:05Speaker 1: it's way easier. Because when I was on the cruise
- 46:07Speaker 1: the very first day, I took, like, 13,000 steps. And
- 46:10Speaker 1: this one, I only took, like, 8,000. I'm like, I
- 46:11Speaker 1: am fucking tired.
- 46:12Speaker 2: They should.
- 46:13Speaker 3: Because there's probably like sports events like this where like
- 46:17Speaker 3: sports expos.
- 46:19Speaker 1: You know, I don't know if there is. And I
- 46:20Speaker 1: was thinking, why aren't there?
- 46:22Speaker 3: Yeah, because that could be all of the the greats
- 46:25Speaker 3: like Scottie Pippen could come.
- 46:27Speaker 2: Like, I would meet Scottie Pippen.
- 46:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I would, too. Kwame Brown.
- 46:31Speaker 2: Dennis Rodman. Muggsy Bogues. I would pay, like, $ 35 to
- 46:34Speaker 2: meet him.
- 46:35Speaker 1: I guarantee if you saw Muggsy Bogues, it would just
- 46:38Speaker 1: be like that. I was like, oh, yeah, yeah. That's
- 46:41Speaker 1: definitely Muggsy Bogues.
- 46:42Speaker 2: I loved him. I was like, this little guy?
- 46:44Speaker 1: Me, too. He was, like, my favorite player when I
- 46:46Speaker 1: was a kid.
- 46:46Speaker 2: Oh, shit. And now look at Jeremy. Like, bald, short, like,
- 46:50Speaker 2: intense person.
- 46:51Speaker 1: Also in NBA.
- 46:53Speaker 3: NBA?
- 46:54Speaker 1: NBA. In the NBA.
- 46:55Speaker 5: NBA.
- 46:56Speaker 3: Jeremy went into like a there's like a cell phone
- 46:58Speaker 3: repair place on Lancaster just for fun.
- 47:01Speaker 2: No, it's called like CPR.
- 47:04Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. And he went in there to see if
- 47:06Speaker 3: they would teach a class at his work.
- 47:10Speaker 2: And he was like, oh, I work at so and
- 47:14Speaker 2: so place like we like to do events, educational ones
- 47:18Speaker 2: like that kind of thing. He was like, oh, would
- 47:20Speaker 2: you guys be interested in teaching a class? And they
- 47:22Speaker 2: were like, what?
- 47:23Speaker 1: Allowed to fix the phone? He's like, I guess.
- 47:27Speaker 2: That was cringe. But I love it. Now every time
- 47:31Speaker 2: we pass it, I point it out to Jeremy. I'm like, ah, CPR, eh?
- 47:34Speaker 1: That is crazy, because what if somebody nearby was choking
- 47:37Speaker 1: in the coat? Don't worry. And then they run there,
- 47:40Speaker 1: and the guy's like, ah, you can borrow my phone
- 47:41Speaker 1: if you want, I guess.
- 47:42Speaker 3: Or even worse, a cell phone's broken, and you're like,
- 47:44Speaker 3: where do I take it? And you take it to CPR,
- 47:47Speaker 3: and they're teaching CPR classes.
- 47:49Speaker 2: Like, what's worse?
- 47:51Speaker 1: Or your cell phone's broken and you take it to
- 47:52Speaker 1: the emergency room. I thought you did CPR.
- 47:55Speaker 2: Yeah. You do it, man.
- 47:57Speaker 1: You do it.
- 47:58Speaker 2: They should have emergency room, like, repair companies.
- 48:02Speaker 1: They should have an emergency cell phone repair place.
- 48:05Speaker 3: Or if I'm, like, really fucking hungry and stoned, I
- 48:07Speaker 3: should be able to cut in line.
- 48:09Speaker 1: Yeah. For if you broke your phone or if you're like.
- 48:12Speaker 2: If I'm like, say I ended up at Olive Garden,
- 48:14Speaker 2: like really high.
- 48:15Speaker 3: And like, and I'm just like shoveling food in my face.
- 48:21Speaker 1: It was for the girls graduation. And so like my
- 48:27Speaker 1: family was there. Nicole and Amber's family was there. So,
- 48:33Speaker 1: you know, they give salads out, right? and uh nicole's
- 48:36Speaker 1: mom like oh can i get one with ranch and
- 48:38Speaker 1: they're like sure they thought she they thought she meant
- 48:43Speaker 1: a whole bucket or you know whatever could you but
- 48:46Speaker 1: she i just wish so much she ate the whole
- 48:48Speaker 1: fucking thing but she didn't she just wanted a.
- 48:51Speaker 2: Little salad she ate the whole salad.
- 48:53Speaker 1: No but she should have oh it was so much
- 49:00Speaker 1: salad with ranch and she was the only one who
- 49:02Speaker 1: wanted it.
- 49:03Speaker 3: I don't like uh that is awkward it's super awkward
- 49:06Speaker 3: and they just.
- 49:07Speaker 1: Gave her the bowl in front of her and she
- 49:08Speaker 1: was like oh thanks.
- 49:09Speaker 3: That no i've experienced that before too that's why i
- 49:12Speaker 3: don't order the salad unless other people are getting it
- 49:14Speaker 3: so i actually have it yeah but here's the thing
- 49:16Speaker 3: i've noticed as i get older when we were kids
- 49:18Speaker 3: like high school we would go to like olive garden
- 49:20Speaker 3: that was a that was a fun time but now
- 49:23Speaker 3: it's like i just want to get the food to
- 49:24Speaker 3: go and like lay in bed yeah right so much
- 49:26Speaker 3: better yeah yeah i don't i don't do i do
- 49:28Speaker 3: the whole song and dance with like oh i'm those
- 49:30Speaker 3: breadstick people like i just tell them.
- 49:32Speaker 2: Like hey load it up because like I got you.
- 49:35Speaker 1: I've been recently going to a lot of restaurants, though.
- 49:37Speaker 1: You have?
- 49:37Speaker 3: I don't like going to restaurants because people touch your
- 49:40Speaker 3: food and breathe on it and stuff.
- 49:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know why I've been enjoying it, but
- 49:45Speaker 1: when's the last time you actually did, though?
- 49:47Speaker 2: Went to a restaurant?
- 49:48Speaker 3: We went to that new Italian restaurant downtown. The only
- 49:52Speaker 3: reason I was like, okay, it's homemade or whatever, like recipes.
- 49:55Speaker 2: And it's owned by a gay couple.
- 49:58Speaker 3: And I was like, oh, I'm going to go support gays.
- 50:00Speaker 3: Went there and I was like, the lighting was bad.
- 50:04Speaker 3: And it was so hot.
- 50:05Speaker 1: Do you think they're really gay?
- 50:07Speaker 2: That's what makes me confused, honestly. And also, he had, like,
- 50:11Speaker 2: a neck tattoo of, like, lips. One of the owners.
- 50:15Speaker 3: And I was like, that seems more like a straight
- 50:18Speaker 3: guy thing to do that has, like, a really controlling girlfriend.
- 50:21Speaker 1: I think the early 2000s show The Pickup Artist, I
- 50:23Speaker 1: think the main guy had lips tattooed on his neck.
- 50:26Speaker 1: And he was a real piece of shit.
- 50:27Speaker 2: I did go to a restaurant. It was not a
- 50:29Speaker 2: good experience. The food was all right, but I walked
- 50:33Speaker 2: a lot that day. We hate walking.
- 50:35Speaker 1: But the lighting was too low?
- 50:36Speaker 2: Lighting was bad.
- 50:37Speaker 1: Was it too low or too bright?
- 50:38Speaker 3: No, you know you're in a gay house. You never
- 50:41Speaker 3: see the light up.
- 50:43Speaker 2: If we recorded in my garage, these type of lights
- 50:45Speaker 2: aren't going to happen. It's going to be like, black lights,
- 50:48Speaker 2: lava lamps. Fuck yeah. But, um... No, I like... No, okay.
- 50:53Speaker 2: So that's why I don't... So, yes, I went to
- 50:54Speaker 2: a restaurant, but it was, like, a solid, like, four.
- 50:57Speaker 1: Oh. Out of ten?
- 50:57Speaker 2: It was so hot.
- 50:58Speaker 1: Oh, that's amazing.
- 50:59Speaker 2: But it was also summertime, but that cranked up the AC.
- 51:02Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. And they're cooking in there, too. It's, like,
- 51:04Speaker 1: just a... And there's a lot of people, so it's just, like,
- 51:06Speaker 1: a factory of heat.
- 51:07Speaker 2: So everybody I was with, there was, like, four of us,
- 51:10Speaker 2: ordered a salad to start. So I was like, oh,
- 51:13Speaker 2: fuck it. I'll just do that, too. And mine never came.
- 51:16Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 51:17Speaker 3: And by the time I, like, was like, oh, I
- 51:18Speaker 3: guess it's not coming... Like it was time for entrees.
- 51:21Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 51:22Speaker 2: So I told Jeremy, I was like, Hey, I didn't
- 51:23Speaker 2: get my salad. And he was like, I'm like, I'm
- 51:26Speaker 2: not going to tell. I just don't want, cause it's like,
- 51:28Speaker 2: that place is not, is not cheap. And the salad's
- 51:30Speaker 2: like 14 bucks for what?
- 51:32Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 51:32Speaker 3: So I had him tell her that I didn't get
- 51:36Speaker 3: my salad. So just don't add it to the bill.
- 51:38Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
- 51:38Speaker 2: And I was just like, I felt bad. She's like,
- 51:40Speaker 2: Oh my God, I'm so sorry. Do you want your salad?
- 51:42Speaker 2: I was like, do I look like I eat salads?
- 51:43Speaker 3: I was just getting it because I didn't want to
- 51:45Speaker 3: be the only one not eating salad, just eating like bread.
- 51:48Speaker 1: I get things when I'm afraid they're going to think
- 51:50Speaker 1: I'm poor if I don't get it. Oh yeah.
- 51:52Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 51:52Speaker 1: They're like, do you want a soda? A lot of
- 51:53Speaker 1: times I'm like, no, but I'm like, yeah, sure.
- 51:56Speaker 2: I guess.
- 51:56Speaker 1: And then when I get them like three goddamn dollars,
- 51:58Speaker 1: I get so mad, but are.
- 52:00Speaker 2: You a good tipper?
- 52:01Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 52:02Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 52:02Speaker 1: I feel like I am.
- 52:03Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 52:03Speaker 3: I like to tip if it's like, I've only had
- 52:06Speaker 3: one time I didn't tip, and it was because he, like,
- 52:09Speaker 3: went out of his way to be, like, mean to me.
- 52:11Speaker 2: Like, he was really mean.
- 52:13Speaker 1: I wouldn't tip either.
- 52:13Speaker 3: I think it was, like, maybe I hooked up with
- 52:15Speaker 3: him or something.
- 52:16Speaker 2: I don't know. He was really, like, mean. Like, for
- 52:18Speaker 2: no reason. So, yeah.
- 52:22Speaker 1: I am deciding to not tip when I order food
- 52:24Speaker 1: and go pick it up now. Because we never used
- 52:26Speaker 1: to do that. Now, like, I ordered mooches. And I
- 52:30Speaker 1: went to go pick it up and I had the
- 52:31Speaker 1: tip to go pick it up. Oh, I don't tip
- 52:33Speaker 1: when I'm there.
- 52:33Speaker 2: I don't work.
- 52:34Speaker 3: I can't order on apps. I don't do the call
- 52:37Speaker 3: ahead thing. I like to go and like, I don't
- 52:38Speaker 3: like to, I don't like to go anywhere.
- 52:40Speaker 1: Oh, I like to order on the app, but I
- 52:42Speaker 1: don't like paying the delivery fee and then the tip
- 52:44Speaker 1: and all that shit. So I go pick it up.
- 52:46Speaker 3: No, I like, I, one of my, like, I know
- 52:49Speaker 3: this is bad of me to say is I like
- 52:51Speaker 3: to tip really good that like, it's gonna like make
- 52:55Speaker 3: them uncomfortable like not uncomfortable like like oh whoa whoa
- 52:59Speaker 3: i want that to be the expectation like you guys
- 53:01Speaker 3: aren't getting paid shit but this restaurant's busy where all
- 53:03Speaker 3: this money going to those gay they're not gay they're
- 53:07Speaker 3: not gay there would not be that it wouldn't be
- 53:09Speaker 3: that mediocre of food and that lighted and that humidity
- 53:12Speaker 3: in there if they were.
- 53:13Speaker 1: Gay yeah i uh as with the tipping yeah is.
- 53:19Speaker 3: That rude to say somebody's not gay Like back in
- 53:22Speaker 3: the day, it was like, you're so gay.
- 53:23Speaker 2: Like as a put down, you're so straight. Like now
- 53:27Speaker 2: that's like, Oh, what's the most boring?
- 53:29Speaker 3: Cause back in the day, the best people in the
- 53:31Speaker 3: world per society was like white straight males. Now it's
- 53:36Speaker 3: like everybody else. So if all those other people come together,
- 53:40Speaker 3: we're like the coolest fucking people.
- 53:41Speaker 1: Hell yeah.
- 53:42Speaker 2: Hell yeah. But anyways, I don't think that I'm going to,
- 53:46Speaker 2: how do we prove that they're not gay?
- 53:48Speaker 1: We could do a special. And we can bring the mics.
- 53:51Speaker 1: And I'm like, okay.
- 53:52Speaker 2: Expose them.
- 53:53Speaker 1: I parked about two blocks away.
- 53:54Speaker 2: We expose. We go deep undercover. I'll dress as a
- 53:58Speaker 2: woman and you dress as a man. There we go.
- 54:00Speaker 2: And then we both flirt with them.
- 54:02Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 54:03Speaker 2: I'll be like, oh, my pussies. And then you would
- 54:06Speaker 2: be like.
- 54:08Speaker 3: And then I don't know what women talk about. Oh,
- 54:11Speaker 3: wide brim hats.
- 54:12Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 54:13Speaker 2: I'd wear a wide brim hat and be like, oh,
- 54:16Speaker 2: my gosh, can you believe manicures?
- 54:18Speaker 1: Can you believe manicures?
- 54:21Speaker 2: And then you'll be like, glory holes, Judy Garland.
- 54:26Speaker 1: What's up with the light?
- 54:27Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 54:29Speaker 3: I think if you were gay, you would be I
- 54:31Speaker 3: would want you to be like, who's that guy from Birdcage?
- 54:36Speaker 2: Oh, Nathan Lane. I want you to like, I wish
- 54:38Speaker 2: fucking like, I love it. Do you be so good
- 54:41Speaker 2: at gay?
- 54:41Speaker 1: I think Nathan Lane is one of the greatest like actor,
- 54:45Speaker 1: like just wonderful. I can listen to him like interview
- 54:48Speaker 1: for just hours without getting bored.
- 54:51Speaker 3: So if you don't want to have sex with guys,
- 54:54Speaker 3: you can still be gay. I don't think that's gay face.
- 54:58Speaker 1: Oh, is that like a blackface, but gayface?
- 55:00Speaker 2: I don't think it is.
- 55:02Speaker 1: You could have just invented it.
- 55:03Speaker 2: I think that you sometimes do put on a gayface
- 55:06Speaker 2: because you're really into Hamilton.
- 55:08Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 55:09Speaker 2: But it's also like just a really good play. Yeah, yeah.
- 55:12Speaker 3: But you're really into musicals and stuff, but you just
- 55:14Speaker 3: don't like suck dick on the rig.
- 55:16Speaker 2: So I think you're gayfacing.
- 55:18Speaker 1: Uh i have to do like a public apology like
- 55:20Speaker 1: i did not mean to gayface when i was younger
- 55:22Speaker 1: it was a different time.
- 55:25Speaker 2: Occasionally i'd perform till i was in manali but it's
- 55:29Speaker 2: okay yeah oh my gosh that's.
- 55:31Speaker 3: So good that's like metrosexual yeah the gay facing is
- 55:35Speaker 3: like you don't have to be like prim like ryan
- 55:38Speaker 3: c chris you know he's is he gay facing Brian Seacrest?
- 55:42Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 55:43Speaker 3: Gay baiting is what they call it.
- 55:44Speaker 4: Oh.
- 55:45Speaker 3: Gay baiting is like acting a little like Harry Styles
- 55:49Speaker 3: gay baits. He licked a microphone very suggestively, but I
- 55:54Speaker 3: don't think he's getting backdoored.
- 55:56Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
- 55:57Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 55:58Speaker 1: He was with Olivia Wilde, right?
- 55:59Speaker 4: Oh. Oh.
- 56:01Speaker 2: I hope not.
- 56:02Speaker 1: Who's the one with Olivia Wilde? Who was married to
- 56:06Speaker 1: Jason Sudeikis?
- 56:08Speaker 2: Not Olivia Wilde. Who's that chick that's like really not
- 56:13Speaker 2: doing well? It's a Cate Blanchett, but it's not. No,
- 56:16Speaker 2: not Cate Blanchett. Cate Beckinsale. Did you see that? She
- 56:19Speaker 2: posted something and said like, you won. I'm done.

- 56:35Speaker 3: that one chick, the only chick, the only woman that can,
- 56:37Speaker 3: or any human that can pull off a septum piercing
- 56:40Speaker 3: is that chick, Florence.
- 56:42Speaker 2: Pew? Pew. Yeah, that was Olivia Wilde.
- 56:45Speaker 1: She was the director of it.
- 56:46Speaker 3: But who am I thinking of? So there's two people
- 56:49Speaker 3: that look quite similar. Okay, I think you're right, but
- 56:53Speaker 3: I'm thinking of somebody else that I think is Olivia Wilde.
- 56:59Speaker 2: What was this episode about?
- 57:00Speaker 4: Right?
- 57:01Speaker 1: Yeah, this is our roast, uh, 2026 roasting of Comic-Con special.
- 57:05Speaker 1: I mean, this is pretty on brand for our episodes.
- 57:09Speaker 2: We should, we could add, like, cheers and stuff.
- 57:12Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 57:12Speaker 2: Um, hold on one second.
- 57:14Speaker 1: We just add an entire audio clip, episode of cheers,
- 57:17Speaker 1: the TV show.
- 57:17Speaker 2: Olivia Munn.
- 57:18Speaker 4: Oh.
- 57:19Speaker 2: Olivia Munn is who I was thinking.
- 57:21Speaker 1: You said they have the same first name.
- 57:22Speaker 3: I'm like the only person that's ever thinking about Olivia Munn. Like, like,
- 57:27Speaker 3: who the fuck is thinking about Olivia Munn?
- 57:31Speaker 1: Uh, last thing I guess I'll say about roasting comic-con
- 57:33Speaker 1: cause I forgot what I forgot what we were talking
- 57:37Speaker 1: about is, so there's this, uh, cartoonist named Dave Warren
- 57:41Speaker 1: and I'm pretty sure he's been to the, uh, to
- 57:44Speaker 1: this comic-con a few times in the past and I've
- 57:46Speaker 1: never been able to actually like meet him at his booth.
- 57:49Speaker 1: This time I finally did. He gave me a really
- 57:50Speaker 1: cool autograph and he was awesome. And, uh, I think
- 57:54Speaker 1: we're going to have him on the podcast in the future.
- 57:55Speaker 1: So he said he'd be interested. So yeah.
- 57:57Speaker 3: That would be so awesome. Like, I had major FOMO,
- 58:01Speaker 3: but I'm really glad. Because, okay, if I would have gone,
- 58:03Speaker 3: I would have been an anxious wreck.
- 58:05Speaker 1: And that beer I got was actually really good, too.
- 58:07Speaker 1: It wasn't too tart. I was worried about that. I know.
- 58:09Speaker 2: I was like, my FOMO was so bad. I was like,
- 58:11Speaker 2: maybe there's going to be a bomb in there so
- 58:12Speaker 2: I wouldn't feel as bad. That's fucked up.
- 58:16Speaker 1: But it's like Rebel from Star Wars.
