  Speaker 2: home of the Lexington Toy and Comic Convention.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: Woo!
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Woo-hoo! We've been coming to this for how many years?
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: A lot. I can't keep track anymore. How long has
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: there been one? Because pretty much since then.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Did we miss a year? Did they
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: do one COVID year?
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: The pandemic.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think everything sort of was on hold that
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: year at least, if not two years. But we are
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: definitely back and in full force because there are a
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: lot of people.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: God damn, there's a lot of people.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: And wearing a lot of costumes.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, they're everywhere.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: This is maybe more costumes than I've seen in, I
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Well, they've been in hiding for the past couple of years.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: I think that's it. I think they dusted off all
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: the cosplay action and.
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: Busted it out. Yeah, I think the anime voice people
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: brought out a lot of people in costume today. Especially
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: a lot of kids. I've noticed a lot more kids
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: in the anime.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: It's becoming the whole new wave of kids. It is.
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: It's a new wave of kids, even today. Younger than
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: my kid. And even my kid's to the point now
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: where she's like, I enjoy the classics. I'm like, shut
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: the fuck up.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: She's an old lady now.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: What classics is she talking about?
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: She's talking about Akira, Ninja Scroll.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: The only ones I've heard of usually.
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Fist of the North Star.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: I've heard of DE. Yeah, stuff that I was.
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: Like watching a long time ago. We were trying, we
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: had to have this, we had a local comic book
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: shop where I lived and the lady who owned it
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: Shout out to TBS Comics in Fort Walton Beach. She
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: used to go to the huge Comic-Cons. I think she
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: went to Japan a couple times.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Before they were as commonplace as they are today.
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, there were no Comic-Cons around. Especially, they
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: didn't come out on the East Coast. And she would
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: go and get anime and bring it back for us.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: She was your dealer?
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: She was my dealer. She got me a copy of.
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: Crying Freeman, the live action that had Mark Dacascos in
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: it that at the time you couldn't get because it
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: was filmed. I think it was only available in Canada,
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: but she got me a Japanese bootleg of it. I
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: think it's in Japanese, but it's got English subtitles.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: What do you mean filmed live?
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: It's a live action.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: A live action. I thought you meant like They were
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: doing like a production.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: It's like the Crying Freeman's an anime. And she used
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: to get me the novels, the graphic novels.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: In my head, I was picturing like a stage production,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: like Broadway.
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: No, no.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, everything's a musical at this point.
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: But the only way I'd heard of it was it
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: was in Fangoria. So Fangoria did this thing that had, gosh,
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: I don't even remember what issue it was in. I
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: just remember that Fist of the North Star was one
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: of them. And then it had Crying Freeman. And I
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: liked Mark Dacascos because he was in a lot of
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: other martial arts movies that I liked. But I was like,
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: holy shit, they made a live action of Crying Freeman.
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: I've got to get that. So she was able to
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: get it for me and get it back to the U.S.
• 4:48
  Speaker 5: And it's sad after all these years that I can't
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: remember her name. I think her daughter runs the comic
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: shop now. But every once in a while we go
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: back down there and visit. And they seem to be
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: doing pretty good. So that's cool. I'm glad that they,
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: you know, keep all the nerds going down there.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Keep them supplied.
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: Keep them supplied, yeah.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, the market eventually caught up with them. You
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: just had to wait like 30 years.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: The world changed and catered to everything you've been doing
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: for your entire career.
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it was a small shop back in the day,
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: and now it's like pretty huge.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Again, it's just a market now. Like, there was nothing
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: but a tiny little group of geeks that were buying
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: stuff back then. But now, I mean, it's the main
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: thing that they produce now.
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and they do a lot of tabletop gaming and stuff.
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: They've got a whole big area dedicated to tabletop gaming,
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: which is pretty cool. I don't do that.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: It's own crazy thing, yeah. Every time I go in
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: one of those places, I'm like, this is like a
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: whole other world.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and my kid's into that, but she doesn't do
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: local tabletop gaming. She does online tabletop gaming. Which I'm
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: not even sure how that works.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: You can't use the same table.
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: It's weird.
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: They have. But they have.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Tables all over the world. Yeah.
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: She plays against people in like Russia and England. And
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: she's got her own little group of all these people
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: from all around the world. And they get together and
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: they play. What is it?
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Warhammer.
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: Warhammer.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So.
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: That's kind of cool. You know. It's not like. Not
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: like the kids of our generation that gathered around, you know,
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: the dining room table or in the basement.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Basement.
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: Yeah. And, you know, played D & D or.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: But how do they know there are Warhammer little lead
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: figures there if they're in a different country?
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know how that works.
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: It doesn't... I don't understand. But you know what? That's cool.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Whatever.
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: Things have evolved.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: We're too old for that.
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: We don't understand. Yeah. Technology.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: You just are into it.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Are you.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: You can still be old and still into it, but
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: try to transfer interest this late in the game. I
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: don't know. Do we have any other stuff from today?
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: We've already seen.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I spent way too much money on Bronze Age horror comics.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: You have some horror comics going at this point.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I didn't even buy that many, but I mean... Usually I, like,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: buy dirt cheap shit, because I'm, like, thrifty with my stuff. Like,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: a dollar, two dollars, maybe three, but, you know. When
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: they're five dollars a pop, I gotta limit myself, otherwise
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: I could have bought, like, the entire fucking place, and
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: then I'd be bankrupt, so.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: It is dangerous. Yeah.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: But, yeah, going in there today, it's like, there was
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: a pandemic a couple years ago? Because it didn't. There
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: was not even, like, the slightest hint of it. I mean,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: everything seems like it's totally back to normal. There's... Everybody
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: came out in full force. There was... Maybe too many people,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: for my personal liking.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Again, that's just us being antisocial as it is. But,
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, again, it's good that they're reloaded. I'm beginning
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: to wonder, because there's so many day-to-day businesses that went under,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: and even places that are still out there, but I
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: feel like the crowds never came back. So, I mean,
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: it's good that these special event kind of things people
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: are still coming out for, because... I don't know. Day-to-day
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: stuff is not the same as it was even before.
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it does kind of blow my mind. A lot
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: of people now would rather get Uber Eats or DoorDash
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: rather than go to a restaurant and sit down and
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: eat because they're like, oh, it's too many people. But
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: then conventions come around and they're like, hell yeah, convention.
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Well, then they get all the people in out in
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: one day.
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess. I don't know.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Like, all right, I've had my quota of people. Now
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: it's DoorDash for the rest of the year.
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess. I'm not even sure.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: I've said that for, again, the last several years, though.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: I was like, as it's gone on and I've seen
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: people get more and more comfortable with that, it's like,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: I think it really is a thing. And like, I
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: don't know that we're going back to the way it was. Like,
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of people got real comfortable with
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Working from home and just not ever having to go
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: out to get food. Even now, the grocery brings you food.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: You don't even have to go to the grocery to
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: get your food.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Walmart brings you stuff.
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: See, I didn't get that.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: I didn't do that either, but I know so many
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: people that did that.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: You can't weld.
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: I can't weld from home.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, you can. I don't think it's going to
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: be quite the demand as it is.
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: Well, we don't have the infrastructure at the house set
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: up to do the kind of welding that I do.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: You need to work on it. Start building your wing.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Your hangar.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: It's so expensive.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: Just the big truck door at the back of it.
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, there are a couple guys that have
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: worked out of their homes, but they have.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: A lot of money.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just know so many people that once it
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: became an option, and now every week on the news
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: they bring up that even the people that have gone
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: back to the regular workaday world they're pushing for this
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: four day work week now because I think everybody just
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: got so comfortable. They're like, look, I can get stuff done.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: I don't have to be here all day, every day.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: So it's like, they really have like cut back. And
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: I think people appreciate.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: I would be all for a four day weekend.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, but you still get paid. That's the thing.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: The way they're doing it now, you work the same
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: amount of, you know, you work four days, but you
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: still get paid the same amount. And everybody is actually
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: getting more stuff done. The productivity is way up on
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: the places that have tried it.
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: Well, yeah, because you get more rest and you get
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: to spend time with your family. And that's the thing.
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: You get to spend time with your family and, again, rest,
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: which is something most of the time during the week.
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know. You're tired, but, man, I'm
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: worn out. By Friday.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm lucky to see the week. I come home
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: and I'm falling asleep by the time I get home.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: It's just exhausting doing anything. Work. Who came up with
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: this plan?
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Not me. I don't like it.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: But again, it's good to see that this is.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Still coming back. And it's still like all.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: There's not like a drop in the amount of vendors.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: It's not like, oh, well... everybody's gone out of business,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: there's nothing left anymore, empty tables. But no, it seems
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: like there's just as many, if not more, vendors.
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but I don't think these vendors are like brick-and-mortar stores.
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: And I think that's the thing that went out of business,
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: whereas I think more people are still doing online businesses,
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: and you're still seeing people on Instagram selling stuff, and
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: people on Etsy and stuff like that. I think that
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: kind of gave rise to that kind of business.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that didn't. fall off because people were just sitting
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: at home they had nothing else to do so they
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: probably have way more stock than before the pandemic because
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: they just sat at home drawing stuff or making things
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: and like now they've got a stockpile to come out
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: and be.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Like here buy all my stuff you know that's your
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: lesson on economics yeah post pandemic from movie meltdown geeks.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Are still out there they just you gotta go about
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: it a little differently to get your stuff than you
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: did back in the day a.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Lot of stuff a lot of people Which is good
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: for the convention. They tried to do things differently this
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: year by cutting off online sales. No, they only had
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: online sales in that if you didn't buy your ticket online,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: you could not buy them at the door, which I
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: think made things run a lot smoother. In fact, we
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: got here like three hours after the door.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: We planned ahead to avoid the line, but it made
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: it a little easier on our end anyway.
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that, and I think a lot of times it
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: cuts out a lot of the people that are just like,
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: what are we going to do today? Hey, there's this
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: weird comic convention going on down in Lexington. Let's go
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: down there and see what's going on. It cuts a
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: lot of that out. The people that are just like,
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: I don't know, that aren't really, I guess, invested in it.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Just random people.
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, just randos that show up, you know, and in
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: the way.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know. There was a lot of things going
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: on this weekend, too. I mean, you had this convention,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: you had, like, Another convention in Cincinnati. There was one
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: in Cleveland. So it's like.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: We're far from Cleveland now.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Well, I know, but there's some people who might have
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: come to this one.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: As far as guests, yeah, it kind of cuts into
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: each other. I mean, you're going to.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Have Sam Raimi here, but then Bruce Campbell's in another one.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, it has to be hard running these things.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Or even the fans in general, because then the fan
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: has to choose, do I go to this one? Do
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I go to this one? Do I go to this one?
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Where do I go?
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: It's like if you're driving already, you just got to
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: pick which direction. Like, which way am I going?
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: So.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: It has become such a different market now that there
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: are different shows and so many geek things kind of
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: going on at any given time.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Because before they used to be like, oh, we have
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: like one or two shows to pick a year. And
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: now it's like, oh, well, shit, there's like two or
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: three conventions this weekend. Yeah. You know?
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: I think it's like that everywhere now. I think every,
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: because each market has so many different cities that they
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: can like, let's book one here, let's book one here,
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: and like. I don't know. It just seems like a
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: logistical nightmare for everybody that has to run the shows
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: and then people trying to make it their business to
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: end up at each one. It's overwhelming.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: It is. I feel bad for the celebrities. Their appearance
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: kind of leaned on somebody else being here and then
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: they didn't show up. Yeah. Yeah. Because I wonder if
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: poor Crabman was in there. But Jason Lee's plane got canceled,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: so he'll probably be here tomorrow.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's still scheduled to be here. But again, this
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: is the logistical nightmare. It's like two guests get their
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: flights canceled, and then it like domino effect of everything.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: It's like you've got photo ops that have to be rescheduled.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: You've got people that were coming here just for a
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: day to get them done. And now it's like, well,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: you got to reschedule for tomorrow if you want to
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: do it. So it just changes everything with one minor
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: adjustment like that.
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Poor Crabman.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Poor Crabman. I mean, Jason Lee was one of the
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: main ones that I thought about getting.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I definitely was considering it for quite a while there.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: I'm sure his line would have been ridiculous.
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: Probably.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: I would have got something from Mallrats. Mallrats is awesome.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: He's awesome in Mallrats. I'm hitting. Even at the time,
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: I didn't think it was great. I was so into
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Kevin Smith at that point. And the other two were
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: such like peaks for me of like, this was, you know,
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: when he was really doing something great. But Mallrats is
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: kind of like.
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: See, we watched Mallrats all the time.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: I still did.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: But I was like, I see the weaknesses now.
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Well, I mean, it's because I knew Jason Lee
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: from skateboarding.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah. You were saying that earlier.
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: He came out.
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: He came out and skated at our local skate park
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: with Blind. He had skated for, I think, World Industries
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: before that and then Blind. And I don't know who
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: else he skated for after that because... Yeah, I can't remember.
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: Then they were just like, oh, hell, he's in a movie,
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: you know? Oh, shit. And he was good. And that
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: was the crazy thing was he was fucking good.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: I thought he was. I was going to say at which.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: It was like skateboarding.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: I've seen, I just went back and saw the videos
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, Oh yeah, he could legitimately skate. Oh yeah.
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: He could legitimately skate.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: But that's what I think is so amazing about him
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: and in Mallrats and then also Jason Amy.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: It's like, he's so, he's got a charm to him.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: He's so natural about it too. It's like you're watching
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: and no offense to London, but like London's like trying
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: to get these crazy Kevin Smith, you know, lines out.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: And like, Jason Lee just sort of rolls with it.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: Like he's just so smooth with the way he brings
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: that attitude and just like everything falls into place for him.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: So again, I like the movie, but I love him
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: in the movie. Like he in both of those movies
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: is just like amazing.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: And London was another one who was sitting in there
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: with no line and I felt bad for him too.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: Again, he's got a crazy beard now. Nobody recognizes him.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: It's like, again, would he have more of a line
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: of people who were actually getting Jason Lee?
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Possibly.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Would they get any kind of bank on the, you know,
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: dual autograph, the dual photo op?
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: You'd always forget he was in Final Sky.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Jason Lee?
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: But he was in another movie.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: He's the friend there, too.
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he was in another movie that I really liked.
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: And I'm trying to find it real quick.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: Alvin and the Chipmunks? Yeah.
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: It's a romantic comedy. Dude, I'm a sucker for romantic comedies.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: I am.
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: I'm more of a chick than I am. Kissing a Fool.
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: It's such a great movie.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: I remember that one at the time. I remember it
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: seemed weird when they slapped him on the cover of
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: that tape, but I do not think I've gotten around
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: to it. Who's the other?
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: David Schwimmer, I think.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: I'm sure I offended somebody by saying that's a chick flick.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: You're more of.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: A chick than me. It's definitely rom-com.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: Who fucking cares? David Schwimmer.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Am I going to get canceled?
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: You're not anti-chick.
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: No.
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: But yeah, him and David Schwimmer are friends and he
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: tries to.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: I'm anti-David Schwimmer.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm not thrilled with David Schwimmer.
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: It's a good movie.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Who's the female lead?
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Is it the Nev one?
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: Let's see. I'm trying to remember what it's called.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: IMDb?
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: Again, I just remember the video cover.
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: Oh, don't do that. Okay.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: No, I have no idea who's in it. Never seen this.
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, okay, so his name's Jay. That's, uh, the.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: That one you owe right there.
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Uh, and his womanizing sports center, Max, which is
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: David Swimmer, have been friends since birth. Jay introduces his editor, Samantha,
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: to Max, and they hit it off. Max wants Jay
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: to try to seduce Sam to test her before the wedding.
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: Which is.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Who's the chick in it, though? Who plays the chick?
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: Uh, let's see. Are you gonna tell me?
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Mm-mm. Okay.
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: Just going to... It's going to show me everything.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: You have to go back to the page.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: It's going to show me everything else. Yeah, they've laid
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: it out weird. Again, I hate everything on the phone.
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: On my computer, I can find it just like that.
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: Okay. Millie Avital?
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: You have no idea who that is. I don't know.
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: I thought she was cute in the movie.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: That's a key thing with your rom-com. You got to
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: be cute.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But they put David Schwimmer in it.
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you know.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: I never quite got that one. I know people... It's
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: weird to me, the amount of love heaped upon Friends
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: at this point.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: It is atrocious. It's been on in the break room
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: at work, and I cringe the entire time.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't hate it.
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: See, I'd never seen Friends.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Well, I watched it at the time, but I just
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: don't remember totally getting into it. I watched it because
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: it was a sitcom, and it was on, and I
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: watched all kinds of crap. But it's funny. As time
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: went on, I watched more and more people just line
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: up and be super dedicated to it. Yeah. Younger people
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: that weren't alive when it was on are.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: So into it now. It's awful. It's crazy to me.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: It's just abominable.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, Lisa Kudrow is awesome. I can't argue with that.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: She is the only highlight of it. Yeah.
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: Because she was in Romeo and Michelle's High School Reunion,
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: which is another one of my favorite movies.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Do you want me to post it? Huh?
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: We learned about it in business class, huh?
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's funny because I forgot who it was.
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: We had a discussion with movies and I said that
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: that was one of my favorite movies. And they were
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: just like, what?
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: What?
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: That doesn't make any sense.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: It is one of those that didn't work even at
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: the time. Like, I think nobody knew what to do
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: with it because I thought it was hilarious. But I
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: think it's great. It's so weird that like it didn't
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: hit with normal comedy market. You know, it's like people
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: watching it were just like, what is this?
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: And like.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: So then it had a weird reputation moving forward. So
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: even now when you mention it to people, if they're
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: not the right kind of people, they're just like, what?
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: You like that movie? The funny thing is the only
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: way I knew about that movie, it's not like a
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: movie that I was like, oh, this looks like an
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: interesting movie. One of the guys that I trained with,
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: he is friends with the owner of the gym that
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: was used in that movie. And that's why I just
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: was like... He was like, oh, yeah, my buddy's Jim's
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: in a movie. And I was like, oh, what movie?
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: And he told me. I was like, oh, I have
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: to check that out. And then watched it and was like, dude,
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: this movie's hilarious.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: You actually did. Because most people who say, hey, I'll
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: check that out, never do.
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: Never do that.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But it was one of those things probably.
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: Where I didn't have anything to do and went to
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: the video store. Video store?
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: Which one?
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: Let's see. That would have been... Maybe Red Giraffe.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: It's going back a ways.
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: On Mid-City Mall, actually. And my friend Garrett used to
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: work at Red Giraffe. And he was the one that
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: probably found the movie for me. I probably asked him
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: where it was at and he found it.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: What was that before? What was it called before it
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: got taken over?
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: Oh, let's see.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: Because they were a good video.
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: It wasn't Hollywood Video.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: It was like a mom and pop kind of deal. Yeah,
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: it was. At least one of our previous co-hosts worked there.
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, because I think Garrett worked there when it was
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: whatever it was before it became Rachel Ray.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a great video store because they had a.
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: Ton of weird horror.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: And cult stuff. Just the people that worked there just
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: ordered stuff because they.
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: Thought it was cool. I rented Flash Gordon from there,
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: I think. Or maybe it was Flesh Gordon.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Those are slightly different.
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: I'm just kidding. But they were, I remember, they were
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: probably one of the first video stores, and I remember
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: it was a big deal. They were one of the
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: first video stores that had like a gay section.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Again, they were kind of pushing the envelope. They
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: had a lot of different weird stuff that people weren't
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: ready for back then.
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: It was Barstown Road, though. Yeah. But that was a
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: big deal because I remember one of my friends, Siobhan,
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: was like, holy shit, they actually have a gay section.
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: This is awesome. So, you know, that was good for her.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: Again, trying to find your, your niche back in the day.
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: And this was pretty wild and wooly.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Before all of this, before all of this became super mainstream,
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: it's like the geeks had to like seek out everything.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Like even just watching movies was kind of hard to do,
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: especially if you were into less popular stuff. It's like it,
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: It was its own little world, just trying to figure
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: out where you could go and find this.
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: And figure out where you could go to get that movie.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: It was just a challenge for every step of the way.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: Speaking of which, I just saw a story yesterday that
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: they are bringing back five blockbuster videos in LA.
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: Because people want the experience?
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Because, yeah. Are they going to be open-open or pop-up stores?
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: No, I think they're legit brick and mortar stores again
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: and like i guess they i mean there was still
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: the one left last i heard so i guess the
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: name maybe you can still license it and franchise it
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: or something but supposedly yeah they're like people they're just
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: really into it and like they're like we think our
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: friends you know want to come back out and want
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: to stand there and like physically look at movies and
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: pick out something and so supposedly yeah they've got like
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: a couple i think a couple are going in la
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: and then a couple maybe in san diego or it's
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: gonna be.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: Like the same where you just rent stuff are they
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: gonna have more options to buy stuff? Is it just
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: going to stay there rental? Or is it going to
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: be like, oh, and here's the stuff you can buy.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: It sounds a bit like it was more rental, but
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: And here's some Pop Funkos, because those are every fucking way.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, again, at this point, it's become more of a
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: hardcore fandom thing. So people are probably way more interested
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: in buying a collector's Blu-ray than they are in renting
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: it for a night.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: Well, you can't have the experience without going there.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: And it not being in stock.
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: And it not being in stock. And then having to
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: pick something else.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: It does lead to, again, as we all learned back
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: in the day, you'd get something else random because you
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: didn't get to get what you thought you were going
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: to get.
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: And it actually turned out to be good.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: And you were like, oh my god, I would have
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: never known this existed.
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: Or it turned out really bad.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Or you end up with Suck and Blow is Jesus.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: And that's how we didn't officially get kicked out of
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: that video store.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: I did yell that really loud.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: You did yell, yeah, well. I think we've explained it
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: a long time ago on the show, but yeah, at
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: some point we were in, was it Blockbuster?
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: I think it was Blockbuster on Bardstown Road. Was it
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: on Bardstown Road?
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: There was one, yeah. We were there for years.
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: Down there where the old Highland Coffee used to be.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: And we've always called him Suck and Blow. He has
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: a real name.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: Jeremy Sisto.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: Jeremy Sisto, as far as we're concerned, is Suck and Blow.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: And there is a weird, I don't know if it
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: was made for TV or made for TNT or something,
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: but some sort of weird religious-y movie, and you suck
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: and blow as Jesus, which is what immediately came out
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: of your mouth at a very large volume.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: I did, yes.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm sure there were random people that were
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: clutching their pearls.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: Oh, man.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: How dare you? My Jesus would never suck and blow.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Sacrilegious.
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: I didn't even realize that was him in, uh, what
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: was it, FBI?
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: TV show.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: He's got a solid gig, man.
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: I'm watching it all the time. Yeah, because I think, uh,
• 25:58
  Speaker 5: clueless was on and so we just watched that because.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: It's my that's the only option for me if you're
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: flipping through channels and clueless is on we stop we
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: watch clueless no matter where you are in the movie
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: it's a classic boyfriend's probably getting aggravated because like every
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: no it's.
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: Not it's i'm the same way with like hackers.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Something she knows clueless is that totally paused it's ridiculous.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: Because your social life Because, yeah, I don't think you've
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: watched it in its entirety.
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: No.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Aside from any time that I've watched it. So I think,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: I think today, I think, well, not today. I think
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: the last viewing was the most entire that you've.
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: The most entirety that I've seen it.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: And it was pretty much where they bring in Brittany
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: Murphy's character.
• 26:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: At the tennis court.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: I miss Brittany Murphy.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: She was so damn cute in that movie. She was adorable.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: And Alicia Silverstone was so hot. No joke, man. I'm serious, dude.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: She was. And Paul Rudd has not aged.
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: What's up with that?
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: He's a. fucking Dracula.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so. Ant-Man is a Dracula. Yell that
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: now in a video store. Go find yourself a video
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: store and then yell out Ant-Man is a Dracula.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Because I was watching it with boyfriend and I'm like,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: it was the scene where they're all like, right before
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: she takes a picture of Ty and they're all sitting
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: around the fountain and I'm like, who would have thought
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: out of most of this cast that fucking Suck and
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: Blow is the one with the most recurring on TV,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: the most known. And then I forgot that Paul.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: I was going to say, yeah, Ant-Man's probably the biggest
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: money maker of the bunch. But yeah, Suck and Blow
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: is not had a dip really he's he's never had
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: a huge hit but he's been solidly working ever.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Since then he was jesus but yeah because every once
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: in a while because after jeopardy fbi comes on and
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: so sometimes i just don't change it because it's not
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: that bad yeah and it's got that one chick who
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: i adore she was andy is it andy andy from
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: reaper which was one of my favorite fucking shows ever.
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: Although we always laugh about them always having a run
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: in every episode it must be in all their contracts
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: where they have to run The bad guy always runs,
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: and then they always have to run after him.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: And they always catch him unless somebody pulls out and
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: blocks their way.
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the thing.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: The big trucks always got to be backing up somewhere.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: It's New York.
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: There's garbage trucks all over the place. Or glass trucks.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: It's always something. But anyways, because you're like, who is that?
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Who is this that we
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: watch on TV? I'm like, that's fucking Jubal from FBI.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: And you're like, what? and then he started talking and
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: you're like oh yeah i can kind of yeah because
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: you can kind of still hear it in the voice
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: because he has a very distinct voice you know yeah
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: he definitely does he's such a dick in that movie
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: and then you were like well because that you saw
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: turk and you're like he's a baby in this movie
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: yeah just even everybody's so young in that movie except
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: stacy dash because she's damn near 30 in that movie
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: but you can't tell because she's still hot.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: She hit it pretty well she looks She looks grown,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: but she can still almost skate by in high school.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Because she was, what, 27, I think, when she made Clueless?
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: She does not seem 27. That movie is... I don't
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: even care. Always. If it's on, we are stopping. And
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: I will watch it, and I will randomly yell quotes
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: all the time.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: It is awesome.
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: I don't have a problem with 90s movies, so... Not
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: at all. Like, I went back and re-watched, uh.
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: Oh, is it Suburbia?
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: I liked that at the time.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Giovanni Rubini?
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: I have not seen it since then, yeah.
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: I want to.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: Because I don't think it's even in print anymore.
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: No, I had to watch it off YouTube.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: See, I thought it was on YouTube. I thought that
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: was the only place I'd found.
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah i went back and watched it and there's a
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: lot of a lot of my life that ties into
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: that movie and uh i was just like holy shit
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: it's like i identify with giovanni rubisi's character a lot
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: in some of that and in some aspects i don't
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: but in a lot of it i do i'm just
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: like what the hell But a lot of the characters
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: that are in that movie are a lot of the
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: people that I grew up with. I can almost name each, yeah,
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: that's this character, that's this character, my buddy so-and-so, that's
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: his character.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: I love that they coordinated their outfits. We should do that.
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: We kind of are.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Oh. Well, it's cute when we do it.
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: It's because we're wearing jeans and black t-shirts.
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: That's unusual. You won't ever find that at a convention.
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: Nope.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: Well, sort of, if we're hitting some of what we've
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: seen lately. I've got one. Now, I know what the
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: answer is going to be for Jay, because I've had
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: this conversation many a time.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: But I was revisiting. I don't even know why. I
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: think just because I saw a copy of it, and
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: I was like, man, I have not seen any of
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: those other sequels since then. I watched the third Crow movie.
• 30:53
  Speaker 5: Which one was that one?
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: Edward Furlong?
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: No, that is the fourth one. This one is Eric Mabas.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: I only know him from... Ugly Betty? No, Welcome to
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: the Dollhouse.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: He's in Ugly Betty, too. I don't know his name.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: I think that was already rolling by the time I
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: heard about it, and then I never caught up on
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: Ugly Betty. I do like her, but I just never
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: went back.
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: No, I refuse to watch any Crow movies.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: It's not the original. What about the TV show?
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: I know you like it. It's got Mark Dacascos in it.
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: And I'm just kind of like, eh, you know. And
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: Mark Dacascos didn't say anything bad about Brandon Lee.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Did Eric Mobius?
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: The second guy from the second movie.
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: Vincent Perez. Yeah, I think he said something. I almost
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: caught him.
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: He kind of said some bullshit.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: Well, I guess that's why I skipped right to the
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: third one. Because I have not seen the second one
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: since the theater afterwards. And it was an atrocity. And
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: I was just like, no, I can't. Well, it didn't
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: need to be remade.
• 31:50
  Speaker 5: And, you know, the other thing that, okay, you know,
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: this is one of the reasons why Misty and I
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: get along so well is spitefulness. My friend, like when
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: the second one came out, he goes, you're going to
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: see it. He said, you will one day. He said,
• 32:03
  Speaker 5: you'll see the sequels. And I said, no, I won't.
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: He goes, one of these days you will. You can't
• 32:06
  Speaker 5: avoid it. Guess what, motherfucker? How many fucking years has
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: it been since the original came out? I haven't seen
• 32:12
  Speaker 5: any of the other sequels ever. How many have there
• 32:15
  Speaker 5: been total?
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: I thought it was just those four. I mean, they're
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: doing the... That's kind of the other thing I was
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: bringing up, just because I'm like, they're still talking about
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: doing another one. Last I heard, and yesterday, saw photos
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: that I feel like people just made up. I think
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: they just like... Who are they saying is going to be...
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: It was freaking Aquaman. What's his face? Jason Momoa. Yeah.
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: He doesn't need to be in anything.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: He just doesn't fit. Yeah. He's like a big giant dude.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: So like that doesn't seem like Draven to me, but
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: maybe it's a different version.
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: See, now I had heard that.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: Alexander or not.
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: No, I heard Bill Skarsgård.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: At one point, that's what I heard. And then I heard,
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: so it's gone back and forth. I don't know. I
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: don't know. But, and people were so bent out of
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: shape about that. Like, They got so upset when they
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: were talking about making the fifth, or making the remake,
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: and I was like, they're like, oh, that's terrible. They
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: should never make another one. I was like, did you
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: miss the other four? Like, what? There's three other sequels
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: to it, and they're all terrible.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: Edward Furlong was awful.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's a mess.
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: It's like, just leave it alone. It doesn't need to
• 33:18
  Speaker 5: be remade. That's like people talking about remaking Big Trouble
• 33:22
  Speaker 5: in Little China. You know?
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: What could you do? Like, how could you improve upon that?
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Which reminds me, they're remaking Vertigo.
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, they've tried that stuff before. It just.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: With Robert Downey Jr. Yeah.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, he is a weirdo. I mean, that is
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: a weird movie. Like, it's odd that they cast Jimmy Stewart.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's, like, so... And definitely at that point
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: had that, like, clean-cut, all-American, good guy kind of thing.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: Because once you get into Vertigo, like, that character is
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: messed up.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: And, like... I don't know.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: It's, like, mentally a weird spot to throw Jimmy Stewart. So,
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: that was odd casting at the time. So, I mean,
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: I can actually see more of a Robert Downey Jr.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: being a creepy stalker dude. Like, wants to turn women
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: into other women because he's obsessed with her. So, I
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: Maybe... Eric Mabeus? Maybe I've always just said his name
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: wrong all these years. Or maybe I was thinking about Morbius. Like,
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: it's a really bad movie.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Or the artist.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: So... Going back and re-watching The Crow of Salvation. What
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: was your opinion of it?
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: See, that's the thing. I hadn't seen it probably since,
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I can't remember if we watched it
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: a million years ago. I forgot Kirsten was in it. Yeah,
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: Kirsten's in it.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: But it's like, that's the thing.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: I'm watching it.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: And Fred Ward! I know! I mean, I was surprised
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: the rest of the cast. I was like, Fred Ward's
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: awesome and everything.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Didn't he die?
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: Except Burt Ward's dad.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: Fred Ward did, yeah, just recently.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: Fred Ward died.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: And then William Atherton.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Who's Burt Ward? Robin. Oh, I don't know. I don't
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: know the familiar connections.
• 34:59
  Speaker 5: I don't know either. I'm just being stupid.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: Also, going back, again, it was so long ago, nobody
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: had a clue, but a very small role by Walton Goggins.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: I like him because he's got weird teeth. That's not
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: why I like him, because he was in Justified at
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: Which Boyfriend Won't Watch With Me, but it's one of
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: my favorites. And that's got, what's his face that I love?
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: Timothy Ellison.
• 35:19
  Speaker 5: One of these days I might watch it.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: No, you won't.
• 35:21
  Speaker 5: I'm going to be in the mood for it.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: You're never going to be in the mood for that. Which,
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: you like Timothy Olyphant, though. I don't understand the problem.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: You like Timothy Olyphant.
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: I think just because it's set in Kentucky.
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: They didn't shoot it.
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: But my aunt likes it.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: What?
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: They didn't shoot it here.
• 35:36
  Speaker 6: No.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: So, you know, it makes it a little easier.
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: It's based in Kentucky. I'm just kind of like, why?
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: Why would I care?
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Because Timothy Olyphant is amazing.
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But, yeah, as far as that one, as I
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: got into it, because I didn't really even remember the plot,
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, oh.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: There was a plot?
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: It's the same thing. I'm just like, why would you...
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: If you're going to take that concept and just do
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: something else with it, that's cool and all. But as
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: we get into it, I'm like, oh, so it's a
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: guy and his girlfriend gets killed and then he wants
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: to be with her. So he comes back and he
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: has to kill the guys that killed her. Wait, this
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: is exactly the same damn movie. So... And then I
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: was like, okay, well, the Kirsten Dunst is her younger sister.
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: And she was, like, that was right at that point.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: It was just before the Spider-Man, and she sort of
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: became the huge thing that she was. So she was
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: still kind of, she reads a little younger. I also
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: wonder if it sat on the shelf for a little while,
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: because she seems a little younger than it, like a
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: year later, she's in the Spider-Man. But, yeah, I was like, oh, well,
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: she's kind of the difference, because she's in there, and she's, like,
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: the one that remembers her sister. And I was like, wait, no,
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: that's the little girl in the first croak. Like, this
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: is exactly the same shit.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: Sarah? Yeah, I was like, it's the same stuff.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, I mean, but it looks interesting. Like, they
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: did bring in some, I don't even know this director.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: I looked at it, and I was like, oh, well,
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: visual style's pretty cool. Like, they really did go for
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: a nice gothy look, and like, it's got some interesting shots,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: but like, it just doesn't really do anything different, and
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: certainly not better than the first time around, and no
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: offense to eric but he is certainly no brandon so
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: it's like what are we doing here because his makeup's
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: weird anyway i never quite i'm like why is there
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: an extra little line over here i'm just critiquing his
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: makeup the whole time and then yeah there's just so
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: many times where i'm like it even goes through the
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: same little motions of like you're murdering the people and
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: leaving some sort of like fiery crow something or other
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: i don't know he leaves some sort of crow calling
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: guard and i was just like yeah what we've seen
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: this like why don't you do something different with this
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: idea and And we still never quite pin down the
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: mythology of what happens with the crow and when do
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: you get injured and when do you not, which got
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: jacked up in the first one anyway. So it's like
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: they don't ever really pin down a lot of that stuff.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: Once again, it's still just sort of left to be like, oh, well,
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: when we need to make use of this, we'll work
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: in that if they hurt the crow, then he can
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: be hurt. It just seems so convenient.
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Do you know any of the Crow mythology? Oh,
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: you're busy watching baby skunks. So you not only will
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: not watch the movie, you will not listen to stories.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: It's probably more. Oh, I know it's more watchable than
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: that second one, but again, it just doesn't do anything different.
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: Like it's the same beats just done. Not as good.
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I just, that was my dad. And by
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: the end I went, wait, why did I watch this?
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: I just wasn't, I was not overwhelmed. It was totally watchable.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine how it would have been if they'd
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: gone with their original director? Oh. Rob Zombie.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: For the third one?
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: I'm sure I would have been just as annoyed.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm reading for you.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: But once again, visually it would have looked great, I'm sure.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: He would have just set it in the trailer park.
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: Actually, he had been... I don't know. It's like there
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: was going to be one called The Crow 2037?
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: But that was at 2000 time range?
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: When it was announced, Rob Zombie... Let's see it. August 1997,
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: when it was announced that Rob Zombie would make his
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: directorial debut with The Crow 2037, covered Casey and the
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Sunshine Band's I'm Your Boogeyman for the soundtrack for The
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: Crow City Evangelist. And after seeing Rob Zombie's work on
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: the video, he produced the song. Edward Pressman offered Zombie
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: the opportunity to helm the third chrome film had the
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: film been made so maybe it was a different a
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: scrapped version yeah yeah had the film been made zombie
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: plan to shift focus and tone from the revenge angle
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: of the previous two entries to a more horror-based approach
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: well it might have.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: Been interesting yeah i mean it would have at least
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: potentially done something different yeah which the third one did.
• 39:45
  Speaker 5: Not Because it just seemed to me, and probably the
• 39:47
  Speaker 5: reason why I never wanted to watch any of the
• 39:49
  Speaker 5: other ones, is it just seemed like all they tried
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: to do was remake it.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: Okay, here's what, here's what. The film would have began
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: in 2010 when a young boy and his mother are
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: murdered on Halloween night by a satanic priest. A year later,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: the boy is resurrected as the crow. 27 years later,
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: and unaware of his past, he has become a bounty
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: hunter on a collision course with his now all-powerful killer.
• 40:11
  Speaker 6: What?
• 40:12
  Speaker 5: How would he grow old if he was resurrected? He
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: got older?
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know. No wonder it was scrapped. But at
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: least it's different.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: At least the idea is something different that I would
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: probably watch. I don't know that I'd like, but I
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: would probably watch.
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: That's just what the Wikipedia says. It could be all bullshit.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: Somebody could just be like, I'm going to put this
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: on the Wikipedia. And somebody's going to believe it. I
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: don't fucking know.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: You can't trust the internet.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: You can't. It lies.
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: Just trying to see what that director did. Downtime, Killing Time,
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: Crow Salvation, TV series, TV.
• 40:50
  Speaker 7: Series, TV series, TV series, TV series. Looks like he
• 40:55
  Speaker 7: graduated into being a couple of episodes here, a couple
• 40:58
  Speaker 7: of episodes there on a lot of different TV series.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: He's done one episode of The 100.
• 41:03
  Speaker 5: Never watched it.
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: So, yeah.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: Oh, wait. He directed The Man Who Invented Christmas. Well,
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: isn't that not at all like his other work?
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: He Bob Clarked that shit. So, yeah.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: It looks fine and all, but yeah. Not at all original.
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: Kirsten does what she can. Sometimes that's not much. There's
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: just not a lot for her to do.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: There's no salvation.
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: Not for us. Or any of the characters, really. No,
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: not to spoil anything, but it's pretty grim as it
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: goes on. I was like, is everybody in this movie
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: getting killed? Like, they just start off in people, more
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: or less. You assume all the bad guys are going
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: to die, but half of the other people that you
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: think might make it through, they just start off in people. So, yeah.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of dead people in that movie, too. So,
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: not necessarily fun.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: Did you watch anything else? Because I haven't watched anything else.
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: We tried to watch a movie. Does that count?
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: Alright, what did you attempt to watch?
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: Boyfriend.
• 42:07
  Speaker 5: What?
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: Cannibal something or other?
• 42:09
  Speaker 5: Apocalypse.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: And why were you excited about watching this movie?
• 42:13
  Speaker 5: Because they had John Saxon.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: John Saxon's awesome.
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: He had to have his shirt off at some point.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: Well, who doesn't want that?
• 42:21
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I kind of remember that now. I kind
• 42:23
  Speaker 5: of remember the, yeah, that was kind of a weird scene.
• 42:28
  Speaker 5: I'd totally forgotten about that. Oh, I just quit watching.
• 42:30
  Speaker 5: Why did I quit watching?
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: Because you were like, oh, fuck this movie, and we
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: turned it off, and.
• 42:34
  Speaker 5: You found something else. It must be one of those
• 42:38
  Speaker 5: slow burn movies. Because it was. It was really slow.
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: And then I was just like, I need something with
• 42:45
  Speaker 5: more action in it. And then whatever else I picked,
• 42:48
  Speaker 5: I fell asleep. What did I pick?
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: I don't remember. Me neither.
• 42:52
  Speaker 5: I probably fell asleep.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Or did we just spend an hour looking for something,
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: and then it was bedtime?
• 42:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe. Maybe that's what it was. That happens a lot.
• 43:00
  Speaker 5: You know?
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: Because, yeah, we didn't really see any cannibals. And there
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: was definitely no apocalypse.
• 43:06
  Speaker 5: No, there wasn't any apocalypse. Maybe it happened later on
• 43:09
  Speaker 5: in the film. I don't know.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: I don't even think it did. I don't know.
• 43:12
  Speaker 5: No, there was just some really weird scenes with the.
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: Underage neighbor girl?
• 43:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the underage neighborhood girl that was trying to seduce
• 43:21
  Speaker 5: John Saxon.
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: Which, I mean, do you blame her?
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 43:28
  Speaker 5: But, yeah, I should say, what?
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: No.
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: Well, I did watch something and I specifically held onto
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: this until we can talk again because occasionally you'll mention
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: like a lot of times series and I don't always
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: get around to series cause they're like long and it
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: takes a long time. And so, um, I want, and
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: half the time I don't have whatever channel, every, everybody
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: that recommends stuff to me now, it's like, okay, what
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: channel is that on? Well, I can't get it. Like
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: I can't get every streaming service. I want to watch
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: yellow jackets. I don't have that.
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: Oh my God. I want to watch it too.
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: I don't have that channel. I want to see zombies
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: with the Mandalorian. I don't have that channel. Stop putting
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: it on channels I don't have. So, that aside, after
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: I signed up for, and this is the reason why,
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: the last season of Only Murders in the Building, I
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: had Hulu. And I was like, alright, I might hang
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: on to this for a little while. Let's see what
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: else is on here that I wanted to watch. And
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: then I came across Future Man.
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: Oh my God!
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: And I remember you telling me about Future Man.
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: Fucking awesome.
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: Did you watch all the series?
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: I have seen season one.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: And it was epic.
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: And it was epic. And then I was like, cool,
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: let's roll into season two.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: And it sucked.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: What the hell is going on? Like, talk about a
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: hard left turn. And then I was like, well, okay,
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: they're just kind of getting their footing. They got to
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: figure out, you know, they're doing a very different thing
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: this season. Let's let them get it going. I'm about
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: four episodes in. I'm just like, They still haven't figured
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: out what the hell.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: Is going on. They never do.
• 44:55
  Speaker 5: That was just, it became super depressing.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: I was like, this future sucks.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: Well, that when you have in a cast that works,
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: it works so well off each other and then you
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: just fucking separate. Yeah.
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: They're all separate almost the entire time. Like there's a
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: handful of times they cross over and then by the end,
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: the three of them are together. And that last like
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: two episodes were kind of fun because there was a
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: bigger plan and an adventure and it at least got
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: watchable those last couple of episodes. But everything up until then.
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: I like season two.
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: I needed a break after two. I was like, I'll
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: come back to it. But I'm like, I need to
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: watch something else now.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: Season one was so... Season one was so much fun. Awesome.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: So good. Like, so good. That guy who plays Wolf.
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: Derek Wilson.
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: He is pretty epic. I was watching it going, how
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: do I not already know this guy?
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: He's pretty awesome. And I've seen the Eliza Coop. And like,
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: she's normally... Like, I remember... I think.
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know which season was the... Wolf... Corey Wolfhart.
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: That's still the first season. That's why it's awesome. Because
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: it's the first season. Every time I hear Corey Hart now,
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: I just laugh. I'm like, oh, well, you know good music.
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. It's so good.
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: But yeah, the Eliza chick, I think I remember mostly
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: from Happy Endings. And she's like the super uptight chick.
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: She's the one with a job and the responsible one
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: of the bunch. And I was just like, what is this?
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: At first, I thought it was recasting. I was like,
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: this doesn't seem right. And then almost immediately, I was like,
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: oh no, she totally works in this role. She's a badass.
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: So yeah, she's super fun in that role. Not what
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: I expected from her.
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: Love, love, love. The first season.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: That first season is epic.
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: I remember in the third season. I can't remember if
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: you liked it or not.
• 46:34
  Speaker 5: Which one was the third season?
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: I don't remember, but I remember.
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: I'll let you know as soon as I get to it.
• 46:39
  Speaker 5: Third season is not the one where they're... Is it.
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: The one.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: I don't remember now. But I remember liking it. I
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: remember liking it better.
• 46:47
  Speaker 5: Is third season where they're on the game show kind
• 46:48
  Speaker 5: of thing?
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because I just, at the very end of the
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: last second season, they go into that. So I was like,
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: all right, I'll at least come back to it.
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: Is that the one that has Haley Jo Osmond in it?
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: He's in a lot of the second season.
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: Because he's in the first season. And I remember thinking, like,
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: as it went on, I was like, oh, he kind
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: of disappeared. I was like, It's weird that they bothered
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: to get Haley Joel Osment, and then he's not, like,
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: they don't really make use of him. He's just, like,
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: in a couple of episodes at the beginning, and he's
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: kind of a dick, and you're like, oh, well, good
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: thing he's gone. But then he totally is a huge
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: part about the second season, but it's a shame it's
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: in the second season when I'm just like, oh, my God,
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: this whole thing has gone off the rails.
• 47:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: It's something. I don't know. I'm still, I guess, glad
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: I watched it. We'll see how I feel after the
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: third season. But, yeah, that first season. It's so much fun.
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: I don't remember Tiger. Who's Tiger? Is that the chick?
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I can't remember her name.
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: That's what it was.
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: She's Tiger.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: I just remember Wolf because that was the main reason
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: I liked the show was Wolf.
• 47:47
  Speaker 5: Which is funny because he was in Preacher and in
• 47:52
  Speaker 5: Preacher you kind of don't like his character.
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because he's like a... I hate his character. Do
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: you ever watch Preacher?
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: No.
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: Again, it was one of those that people have told
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: me about and I'm just like.
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: I can't. He's kind of an abusive dick, isn't he?
• 48:03
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he's abusive to his wife.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: But then doesn't she kind of like it?
• 48:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you find out that she's like into it and
• 48:09
  Speaker 5: you're just like, okay, wow.
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: Or am I making that part up?
• 48:11
  Speaker 5: No, I think you're right because then you're like, wow, okay.
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: Weird.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: It's been a long time since I watched it so
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: maybe I made that part up. I don't know.
• 48:19
  Speaker 5: No, I think you're right.
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: Domestic abuse is never okay.
• 48:22
  Speaker 5: Because I think she tries to end up bringing the
• 48:24
  Speaker 5: preacher into it with all three, or with them and
• 48:29
  Speaker 5: it gets really weird. Oh, yeah.
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: Swinging preacher.
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: The preacher was pretty hot.
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: Well, It is perfect casting, though, because I thought the
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: Joss Hutcherson thing, I was just like, what a weird.
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: I thought it was weird because, again, knowing his previous
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: roles and what he's kind of known for, I was
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: just like, is he going to work in this action-adventure-sci-fi thing?
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: And then we get in and I'm like, he's the
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: biggest dork in the world. I was like, oh no,
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: that's perfect casting.
• 48:57
  Speaker 5: It's funny because we worked with this guy, I don't
• 48:59
  Speaker 5: remember what his name is, but we called him... One
• 49:02
  Speaker 5: other friend that I worked with saw future man but
• 49:06
  Speaker 5: we called him joosh and he didn't know why but
• 49:10
  Speaker 5: he was the joosh character he he was just a
• 49:15
  Speaker 5: failure at life and everything he did at work he
• 49:19
  Speaker 5: tried to do a good job, but man, he just... Failed.
• 49:23
  Speaker 5: He just failed so hard.
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: At everything.
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, everything. It was just like, dude.
• 49:30
  Speaker 5: Oh, his name was Rocky. And we were just like, dude,
• 49:34
  Speaker 5: he is just all the time getting beaten down by life.
• 49:38
  Speaker 5: He was a nice guy, but it seemed like he
• 49:42
  Speaker 5: just got shit on by life all the fucking time.
• 49:45
  Speaker 5: And our boss hated him. Our boss just couldn't stand him,
• 49:49
  Speaker 5: which I never did really understand. And we were just
• 49:53
  Speaker 5: kind of like, I don't understand why he doesn't like him.
• 49:55
  Speaker 5: My boss is just like, I don't like him. He's
• 49:57
  Speaker 5: just a fucking loser. I was like, oh, okay. Well,
• 50:00
  Speaker 5: he could still be nice to people, but no.
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: I don't think that's how the world works.
• 50:04
  Speaker 5: No, that's not how my boss works.
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: Have you seen anything else?
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: No.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: I've been doing cross-stitch, and that's been a lot of
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: not watching stuff. Books.
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: It's a whole new adventure.
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've stabbed myself so many fucking times.
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: Do you want to... I mean, we're not really sponsored
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: by them, but do you want to give a plug
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: to your road trip?
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, we went on vacation. And the highlight
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: of my vacation, we went to.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: It says a lot about you.
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: Huh?
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: It says a lot about you. The highlight of my vacation.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: Well, aside from going to bookstores, which is, honestly, it's
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: the main highlight. I have, like, three highlights. Obviously. Well, because,
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't really a vacation. It's going on
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: to Florida to do boyfriend's mom's list of shit to do.
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: It's a working vacation.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But anyways, we went to Bucky's three times. Three briskets.
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: It was amazing. If you have not had Buc-ee's briskets.
• 50:57
  Speaker 5: Three different Buc-ee's.
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: Three different Buc-ee's.
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: What region? Because I know we didn't have one here
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: until recently. Texas and mainly the South. Have they all
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: been creeping up from the South?
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: We went to Buc-ee's in three different states.
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: I believe it.
• 51:08
  Speaker 5: Two different states.
• 51:09
  Speaker 6: No.
• 51:10
  Speaker 5: Who was it three? Kentucky.
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: Alabama.
• 51:14
  Speaker 5: Alabama.
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: Alabama.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: Oh, the other one was Alabama too?
• 51:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the other one's in Milwaukee.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: Two states.
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: Alabama's a weird place. It's probably a subsection of Alabama.
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: Anyways i thought i was you forgot which state we
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: were in i was too delirious on bucky's state of
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: brisket dude shit if you have never had the bucky's
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: brisket you don't know what life is.
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: It's worth the investment i think so because we were
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: discussing earlier people said it's not cheap but it's worse.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: Because even you were like that's pricey for a gas station.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: Gas station sandwich it seemed a little pricey but i
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: was like i know it's it's a refined taste it's
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: it's only the cool people that know to go get
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: the brisket at the bucky's are gonna indulge in this
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: and like that's why you're willing to pay.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: I mean bucky's in and of itself is an experience
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: i mean it is somebody might say it's just a
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: gas station it is not just a fucking gas station
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: they have like it's like it's rows and rows of
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: pumps over 100 gas pumps oh my god And they
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: have their own brisket. They have Bucky Nuggets. I can't
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: even say it.
• 52:14
  Speaker 5: Beaver Nuggets.
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: Beaver Nuggets. Beaver Nuggets. Beaver Chips.
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: Oh, wow.
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: But yeah, dude, brisket.
• 52:20
  Speaker 5: Jerky. They have all their own jerky.
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: They have a deli for snacks, like cookies and brownies,
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: which I can't have because I'm a fat kid. But
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: that brisket, that was worth the guilt I felt for
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: cheating on my diet.
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: Cheat day.
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: It was a cheat week. We were on vacation for
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: a week. I was on vacation. Yeah. We had Bucky's.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: and briskets three times. And we also went to Water
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: Burger three times. So I went to Water Burger. You
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: drove me there, but then you did not partake. And
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: then I had three Dr. Pepper milkshakes, which were glorious.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: And I'm pretty sure I gained back all the weight
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: I lost.
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: You have very specific needs in your life.
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: And they are Water Burger Dr. Pepper milkshakes. Can you
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: imagine if we could get the perfect meal of a
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: Water Burger Dr. Pepper milkshake, which the more I say it,
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: the more I can try to get it to show
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: up on my hand. the water burger, Dr. Pepper milkshake,
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: and a Bucky sandwich together in one meal.
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: Magic.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: Dude, let's make this fucking happen. How far away is
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: one from the other?
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're going to have to MapQuest this thing. MapQuest?
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: Who the fuck MapQuest shit?
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: Somebody referenced that the other day. I was like, wow.
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: I remember having tons.
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: Of printed out sheets stuck in my vehicle at the time.
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: Map questing my way around the world.
• 53:33
  Speaker 5: You always ended up taking it in the wrong spot.
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: You ended up in a lake.
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: Nobody corrected you at all when you went the wrong way.
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: Nobody was recalculating. They were just like, keep driving the
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: wrong way, dumbass.
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: Into the lake.
• 53:45
  Speaker 5: Then you have to ask directions.
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: I don't think that's a thing. I don't think you're
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: allowed to do that.
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: I got my picture taken with Bucky. And the statue.
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: Totally redirected back to Bucky's because it's one of my favorites.
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: It's an experience and I hate people and there are
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: always a lot of people and I'm usually just like, Bucky's, Bucky's, Bucky's,
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: what can I buy at Bucky's? I feel like I
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: must always buy something there.
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: At some point you'll have the Bucky statue in your home.
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: At some point there will be a cult of Bucky's
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: and I will join that cult. And I'll be okay
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: with it. What did you say? When the world ends.
• 54:24
  Speaker 5: I said when the world ends, we'll be in the
• 54:26
  Speaker 5: cult of the beaver.
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: We will. Proudly, too.
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: I'm going to start writing this movie. Wait a minute.
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: Beaver apocalypse. Hold on.
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: Zombiever is one, but that's not the same. I don't
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: want a zombie beaver. I don't want zombie Bucky. He's
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: too wholesome for that. I love Bucky's. It's... Good god damn.
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, it is, like I said, but it's like, what,
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: $ 8 for like one sandwich?
• 54:51
  Speaker 5: I don't know. I get the XX or the XL sandwich.
