  Speaker 2: And what did we call this place last time?
• 1:50
  Speaker 8: Oh gosh, I don't know.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: Now it's... The safe house.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: All right, we're coming to you live via digital recording
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: from the safe house. You don't need to know where
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: it's at. Don't tell anybody.
• 2:00
  Speaker 8: It's not safe.
• 2:02
  Speaker 9: Okay.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Is that a threat?
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: All right, I'm used to it. So, yeah, to ease
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: our way into this, what have you watched lately?
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: We saw something in the theaters recently.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: You've been to a theater?
• 2:17
  Speaker 10: Out of the house?
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: I know what we got for food.
• 2:20
  Speaker 8: I remember that I got nachos.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: This does not say much about the movie, that you
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: remember your nachos, but not the film.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: It was Eye in the Sky.
• 2:28
  Speaker 8: Eye in the Sky.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: That seems pretty forgettable. Yeah.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: I mean, it was just fine.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Mostly because I don't even remember the plot. And I
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: know I've heard the plot at least once, maybe twice now.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: And I'm already like, what's that one? Is that Alan
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Parsons make a movie?
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: Like what?
• 2:44
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it was about the moral conflict of these people
• 2:51
  Speaker 8: that are operating this drone, and they see a little kid,
• 2:56
  Speaker 8: and they're like, oh, crap, what do we do? Like,
• 2:58
  Speaker 8: we have to, like.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: See, as you're saying this, I'm like, oh, yeah. It's the,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: do we blow up the building when there's a kid
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: next to it kind of scenario.
• 3:06
  Speaker 8: And it was, like, two hours of that.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: It's what I've heard.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: And I forgot about it.
• 3:11
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: What does that say? It takes place in real time,
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: pretty much.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Nice.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: Like, you get to see the whole decision-making process and
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: the bureaucracy and the passing the buck and all that stuff.
• 3:22
  Speaker 9: Oh, sorry.
• 3:22
  Speaker 10: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 3:24
  Speaker 8: Yeah, but my nachos were great.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, see?
• 3:26
  Speaker 10: There we go.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: And also you get to see Aaron Paul get teary-eyed
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: once again, but not cry.
• 3:32
  Speaker 10: But well up.
• 3:32
  Speaker 8: Yeah, he's good at that. He gets the glassy eye.
• 3:35
  Speaker 8: You can see a reflection in it.
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: You see the lens.
• 3:39
  Speaker 10: Acting.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: I bet the IMDb page is like, hey, I can
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: see the camera lens through his fucking eyes. Sucked.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: It wasn't so bad there was lens flare, was there?
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Because that'd be really bad. Oh, God. Getting full on
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: JJ lens flare off your teary eyes. That's a little raw.
• 3:55
  Speaker 8: Um another thing i've seen lately which might as well
• 3:58
  Speaker 8: be its own thing is the trailer for page of
• 4:00
  Speaker 8: cups which is its own cinematic feat.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Page of cups doesn't that seem like night of cups
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: night of cups page even when you get it right
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: i was just thinking like that sounds wrong but then
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: the real one also sounds wrong like every time i'm
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: like did they mess up the title am i remembering
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: the title wrong like why are they so damn.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: Confusing jester of cups.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah it's like The bag of cups that I picked
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: up at the grocery. I need some more of those.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Not those red ones. That's what douches drink out of. No,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: I want, you know, just some nice clear plastic cups.
• 4:32
  Speaker 8: My friend released an album recently called Page of Cups,
• 4:35
  Speaker 8: which is why I said Page of Cups.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so a plug for that album as well.
• 4:39
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Good luck Googling that.
• 4:41
  Speaker 8: I'm not going to see that movie. I'm not going
• 4:42
  Speaker 8: to see Night of Cups, but I like watching the trailer.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Once again, which one is that one again?
• 4:48
  Speaker 8: That's the one, like, it's Christian Bale.
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: Terrence Malick.
• 4:51
  Speaker 8: And they're like these hollywood people and they have like
• 4:56
  Speaker 8: nihilistic lives and they have sex.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: When terrence malick didn't make movies very much yeah and
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: like then he decided i want to be a real
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: filmmaker and crank one out once a year like.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: It's like before and after adderall yeah you can actually see.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: It or maybe he's like i might keel over soon
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: i gotta start cranking out more movies This once a
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: decade thing isn't really working out for me as far
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: as building a career.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: Have you seen anything else? I think the last movie
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: we saw before Eye in the Sky maybe was Zootopia. Right.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: Was it Zootopia?
• 5:31
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I think so.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: Okay, we'll go with that.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: What's the take on that one?
• 5:36
  Speaker 8: I liked it.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: I liked it a lot. It looked relatively clever for... Yeah,
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: it was... Is that one Pixar? Or is it just Disney?
• 5:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 5:45
  Speaker 8: I don't know.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: I can't remember now. Maybe it's just Disney.
• 5:50
  Speaker 8: But yeah, it was good and it was not annoying.
• 5:52
  Speaker 8: My favorite thing about it was that there was this
• 5:56
  Speaker 8: female lead character and this male lead character and they
• 5:59
  Speaker 8: did not become romantically involved at any point.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: That's always impressive.
• 6:03
  Speaker 8: I love that.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Every once in a while. Occasionally, if you can work
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: the chemistry right, that's okay to make them get together.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: But I hate when it's a foregone conclusion that, oh,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: obviously these two are going to hook up because it's
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: a movie and that's what happens.
• 6:16
  Speaker 8: And they just had a really nice little buddy friendship.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's even better when you can just have a
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: good relationship without it being a relationship. Especially when it's animals.
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a little more problematic because we can infer...
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: I mean, she's a rabbit.
• 6:34
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: So she might be wanting it more than... The fox character.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: That's where you're taking it.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, if that went romantic, that would have been the sequel.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: That would have been the source of tension for the sequel.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: Maybe they're saving up for the sequel.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: The fox would be just dried out.
• 6:52
  Speaker 8: Yeah, mismatched libidos.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: And these weird little bastard children running around everywhere. Like,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: what are these? And why do we have so many
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: of them? Stop! And Giselle. You've got Giselle.
• 7:05
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Gazelle.
• 7:08
  Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Gazelle.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: No, if there was a romantic thing, it'd be Gazelle.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Just shoot me.
• 7:17
  Speaker 8: You just moaned into the microphone.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: He really likes Gazelle.
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: What are you talking.
• 7:24
  Speaker 8: About?
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: Shakira.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: You gotta hook up with some of that Shakira.
• 7:27
  Speaker 8: What about you? Have you seen anything cool lately?
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: I watched one that it's one of those I planned
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: on watching and I just got around to it. I
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: finally saw Creed.
• 7:38
  Speaker 8: Oh, okay. How was that?
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Have you seen it?
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: I have not seen it.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know if there's anything to spoil, really.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: It's really good. I think I brought it up on
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: the spoiler episode. I'm like, going into a sequel that's
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: that many in a series, that's now, and maybe this
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: is the best part, it's like, I don't even think
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: it was written. I don't think it had anything to
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: do with Stallone. until he came in to do the performance.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: It's like they handed it off to somebody else as
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: far as writing, directing, everything else is just somebody taking
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: it in a new direction, but they're still obviously fans
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: of the original. It has its little nods to the
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: original and they do a nice little tribute here and there,
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: but it feels like its own thing. It really does
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: pay tribute to this new character and he gets to
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: actually have a character and it gives time to build
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: up what's going on with him. And, again, Stallone was
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: ripped off. Like, that's easily the best performance, I don't
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: know about ever, certainly since Copland, because I think he's
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: awesome in Copland, but that's, like, what, almost 20 years ago,
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: if not? And, like, before that was Rocky. So, like,
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: he's rarely turned in really impressive, dramatic performances. This is
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: really good.
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: Like, surprising.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Like, there's several times when I'm like, oh man, I
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: was like, that was a really great scene. Like I
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: forgot he had that in him. Like it's, it's really, yeah.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: Kind of unnerving to watch and remember, oh yeah, he's
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: not just a big dumb action guy. Like he can
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: do that really well. Don't get me wrong. I'm not
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: making fun of his action. I spent most of my
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: life with a Cobra poster on the wall. What do
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: I know?
• 9:21
  Speaker 10: I'm an idiot.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: But I mean, it's surprisingly well put together. Not just
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: his performance, but like, Michael B. Jordan.
• 9:31
  Speaker 8: Michael B. Jordan. Yeah, I like him a lot.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: He's really cool. I saw him. And was surprised, again,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: how much, like, so much of the plot, the weight
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: of the plot is on his shoulders. And, like, he
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: is really kind of charismatic, but not so, like, overly
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: goody-goody that, like, he's an infallible character. Like, he's a
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: real guy. And, like, he comes off that way. Yeah.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: So it's, he's really good.
• 9:54
  Speaker 8: He did that in Fruitvale Station, too.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: Same director, yeah.
• 9:58
  Speaker 8: It was this really good guy, but you get to
• 10:00
  Speaker 8: see his human, his temper. They don't just have this
• 10:05
  Speaker 8: kind of glorification of this person, this sainthood.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: That's kind of what's cool with this. It kind of
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: works if you're enough of an old-school Rocky fan, because
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: it does... really kind of deal with living in the
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: shadow of having somebody who's really famous be related to you,
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: specifically your father and you're the son, trying to follow
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: or not follow in his footsteps. Because they even do
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: a little tie-in with Rocky has a kid in it
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: and him not wanting to deal with that world. It
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: kind of messes up their relationship. So it's also interesting
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: it does that whole father-son and weird children of celebrities
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: kind of a scenario that kind of comes into play
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: so it's yeah it's yeah it does a pretty decent
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: take on that too of watching this kid who never
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: even knew his father have to deal with like living
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: in the shadow of what is this you know huge
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: massive sports figure so they do a good job of
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: kind of tying back to the apollo creed story and
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: even if you haven't seen it like if you kind
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: of came in and this is your first one in
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: the series you They do a good job of letting
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: you know, oh yeah, he is huge. He's basically Ali
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: in this world. He's the biggest name in boxing ever.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you're this new kid and you're kind of
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: illegitimate and you're using his name and it's going to
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: piss people off. That's a pretty cool story. I was
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: impressed with how well they tied it to that storyline too.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: Check that out.
• 11:37
  Speaker 10: It's worth watching.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: And that part works too. Yeah, it doesn't spend a
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: ton of time in the ring. We get a couple
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: of fights and it builds up to him. But then
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: when he gets in there, because that's like its own
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: art form is being able to shoot boxing right. Fight
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: scenes in general, I guess, but boxing fight scenes are
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: a very specific thing. So it's like you really kind
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: of have to figure out how to do that right.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: And again, for him not doing that before, he didn't
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: come from the old series. So to just sort of
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: come in cold and be able to shoot them this
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: well is kind of impressive so yeah it even kind
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: of works in the shooting a good boxing movie.
• 12:14
  Speaker 8: Angle too cool yeah we'll have to check that out
• 12:18
  Speaker 8: definitely worth seeing you know what i kept getting craig
• 12:21
  Speaker 8: confused with.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: Like your favorite band no you're like is this just
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: my music video hits dvd that i constantly have on.
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: A loop a feature-length concert film.
• 12:32
  Speaker 8: God if only No, I kept, there was the other
• 12:36
  Speaker 8: movie out, Concussion, and just due to the nature of boxing,
• 12:41
  Speaker 8: I kept thinking, it was like, oh, Concussion, it's that movie.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: Is it about mushy-brained boxers?
• 12:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Tell the truth!
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: Tell the truth!
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Tell the truth!
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: Tell the truth, when you get hit in the head,
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: you get hurt.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: If you get hit in the head enough, you'll like Creed!
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: The band, not the movie. That's the only thing that
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: explains it, brain damage.
• 13:02
  Speaker 8: Yeah, we can just give Creed concussions.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: I'm up for that. People would line up to take
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: that dude out.
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: I think Scott Stapp might have had a few, though.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: Get your guy some of his antics.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Can we?
• 13:14
  Speaker 11: Oh, Lord.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Are we talking about the Denny's? Did you hear the
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: Denny's story?
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: No.
• 13:19
  Speaker 7: Oh, Lord.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure it was legit. Go Google it and
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: find those. Because it was somebody like it was right
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: at the tail end of them kind of actually being popular.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: What is wrong with people? But, like, it was a
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: year or two past that, and, like, Scott's still, like,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: cruising around thinking he's a hotshot. And, like, he, at
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: some point during the night, again, go find the real story.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: I'm going to guess at what I think it was about.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: But I think it was him, like, he'd met up
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: with some girl, or at some point they'd gotten numbers
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: and they were texting back and forth with this girl
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: that wanted to hook up with him, I'm sure he thought,
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: because he's a rock star. And they were just kind
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: of fucking with him because he's Scott's dad. So they're like,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: we're at Denny's, come meet us. And then they hide
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: and watch him wander around Denny's looking for this girl.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: And they're taking photos with their phone while this is happening.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: So they put it up as a blog post with
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: the photos of him wandering around Denny's, desperately trying to
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: find this girl to hook up with as this rock
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: star passed his prime. It's sad and hilarious all at
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: the same time. So please, yeah, go find that and
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: laugh at Scott a little bit.
• 14:27
  Speaker 8: Well, put yourself in his shoes.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: You're past your prime. I don't want to.
• 14:30
  Speaker 8: Wouldn't you go for that Denny's pussy?
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: I suppose. No. No. No moon over my hammy pussy.
• 14:39
  Speaker 11: No.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: No. That's not what I'm looking for. He doesn't want
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: some flapjacks? Oh, okay.
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: Wait.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, you'd meet out back for flapjacks anyway.
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's just how that works.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, Lord. I'm trying to think if I've seen anything else.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: Not really. I'm still catching up on the end of Daredevil,
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: which is also awesome.
• 15:06
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: As previously mentioned on this show, it's freaking awesome, so
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: go watch it.
• 15:10
  Speaker 8: We've been keeping up with Butter Call Saul. Isn't there
• 15:16
  Speaker 8: a new Fargo this year that we're going to.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Is there a new Fargo? I don't know. We're on
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: season two, at least.
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: The second season ended a few months ago.
• 15:24
  Speaker 8: Okay, so I guess not. Time just doesn't make sense
• 15:28
  Speaker 8: to me anymore.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, especially with not real series. Because it's
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: not like it follows any old school network programming. It's just,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: here we made this. Oh, and we're dumping it all
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: at once. It doesn't follow any system that the world's
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: used to yet. So everything does kind of seem weird now.
• 15:44
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I never know. I feel like there are a
• 15:47
  Speaker 8: lot of shows that I keep up with. I really
• 15:50
  Speaker 8: like Rick and Morty, True Detective, Fargo... Okay, my throwaway
• 15:57
  Speaker 8: garbage show is Scandal. I don't know why.
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: The photograph, the cutaways.
• 16:05
  Speaker 8: I don't think that's going to translate.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: Is that Kerry Washington?
• 16:09
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I do.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: That's a throwback for really bored fans that were listening
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: several years ago.
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: Whoa, that's for the devotees.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: I don't really remember what else we were talking about.
• 16:22
  Speaker 8: I was just talking about the shows that I like
• 16:23
  Speaker 8: to cycle through. So there's always one of the shows
• 16:26
  Speaker 8: that I watch coming up, but I never know what
• 16:29
  Speaker 8: it's going to be. I guess House of Cards. I
• 16:30
  Speaker 8: finished House of Cards.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: See, these are too many things. Too many episodes. I
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: can't keep track of it all.
• 16:38
  Speaker 8: There's a lot of them.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: It's just so much stuff. That's why I'm like, I've
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: been at least, okay, I'm a geek, so I'm at
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: least trying to keep up with the Marvel stuff, but
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: I'm like, even when Daredevil drops all at once, I'm
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: just like, 13 episodes. Whew. Like, it's just like, and
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: even though I do end up, like, powering through several
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: of them because it's badass and I don't want to stop,
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: but I'm just like, shit, I haven't watched anything else
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: in days. Like, it's throwing me off. So, yeah, series
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: stuff is unusual for me to get that invested in it.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: There's a handful that I'll watch, like, at the time
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: on TV because it's not so overwhelming. I can do
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: an hour or 45 minutes at a time.
• 17:15
  Speaker 10: Once a week.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: But yeah, like when you miss them a whole season
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: and then you're like, oh, now I'm down 22 hours
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: of my life. It's like, oh, God.
• 17:24
  Speaker 8: I like that. I like to like just like post
• 17:26
  Speaker 8: up in my bathtub, put my laptop on the toilet
• 17:29
  Speaker 8: and just like go through like three or four episodes
• 17:32
  Speaker 8: at a time.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: Electrocution waiting to happen. We're not responsible.
• 17:35
  Speaker 8: It's not plugged in.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, no. That just means you're sitting there looking at
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: it dead. That's when you're crazy. You're just watching a
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: dead laptop.
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: Because you know your battery's been- I'm hallucinating vividly.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Your battery's been dead a long time.
• 17:51
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: So you like marathoning. That's what we found out.
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: With some shows, like something like Mad Men, I can
• 17:57
  Speaker 8: watch one, maybe one and a half episodes before I
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: just want to bash my skull in.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's tone.
• 18:03
  Speaker 11: But it's weird.
• 18:03
  Speaker 8: I like it. I don't know.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: It is also like- I think it works really well,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: especially for me. Like, it's actually hard for me to
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: even week to week watch stuff that's sort of very
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: segmented now. Like, I love a huge overarching story. You know,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: that's why I'm so invested in Daredevil, because it's just
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: one big long 13 hour movie, basically. But like when
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: you get to something like I remember somebody used the
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: example of like back when House was on and they
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: were like, if you watch like three or four houses
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: in a row, it's the same episode. It's set up
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: to be the same thing, and it hits the same
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: beats at the commercial break, and then it comes back,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: and then House is a jerk, and he figures out
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: the mystery. It wraps up the exact same 44 minutes
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: every time. I've started watching that even in stuff that
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: just does a basic segmented sort of thing.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, shows where the only thing that really changes is
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: who is having sex with who.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Or Who's Dead This Week.
• 19:03
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Because I was thinking more of like the cop shows
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: which I don't really watch but every once in a
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: while I'll leave that is it CSI Los Angeles that
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: has which is the one that's got Chris O'Donnell and
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: LL Cool J. Like every once I don't know why
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: that one because I don't like any of them really
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: but that one is just amusing enough that sometimes I'll
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: leave it on while I'm like doing something else and
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: I'll just be like this is just it's the same
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: scenario week to week but every once in a while
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: they like it's a new dead person that they find
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: or some new plot takes in, gets worked into the scenario.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: But like, it still kind of feels like the same
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: show more or less every week.
• 19:40
  Speaker 8: It's comforting.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: I think that's what it is. I think that's why,
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: you know, Jag was on for 14 years. It's because
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: old people like to watch the same thing week after week.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: it's like you kind of get which I get that
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: like I get a little bit of the like getting
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: into the security of like I like the show I
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: like these characters they're gonna be back next week again
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: we're kind of desperate when we get into our like
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: sitting around watching TV mode so I think we do
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: like that security blanket of like this is my show
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: I don't want it to change or be different this week.
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: One day I'm going to die.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: And then the CSI people will show up at your door.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Be like, oh, look what happened. And they'll draw a
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: little outline around you. And then LL Cool J will
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: figure out what happened.
• 20:22
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I know lots of people who fall asleep to
• 20:25
  Speaker 8: the same shows.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, I do that just because I'm constantly waiting
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: to fall asleep. But occasionally there were specific ones that
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: over the years I'm like, it is kind of comforting
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: to me.
• 20:36
  Speaker 8: Yeah, my friend Jill, I guess it's not comforting, but
• 20:39
  Speaker 8: it is to her. She watches the same episodes of
• 20:43
  Speaker 8: Forensic Files. Oh, she's been watching Forensic Files, like, every
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: day for years. And she falls asleep to Forensic Files. Like,
• 20:49
  Speaker 8: that's what she wants. Like, I go over to her house,
• 20:52
  Speaker 8: and we just, like, sit around, maybe have a glass
• 20:54
  Speaker 8: of wine, and watch Forensic Files. All the time. It's, like,
• 20:58
  Speaker 8: her thing. And I'm like, that's not comforting to fall
• 21:01
  Speaker 8: asleep to, but for you, the formula... Is very, like, familiar.
• 21:05
  Speaker 8: And you're creepy.
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because, like, she's just drifting off. You just hear,
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: the victim's head was found in a garbage can. Later,
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: when searches, you know.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: Ah, victim's head. Good night. Low you to sleep with
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: severed body parts.
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: Yeah, if I go missing, check Jill's place.
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: That's it. We're all keeping an eye on Jill now.
• 21:34
  Speaker 8: I've been watching so much Planet Earth recently. Planet Earth,
• 21:39
  Speaker 8: Blue Planet, Life. I've been watching all of those.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: You sound educational. I know. I don't want to learn stuff.
• 21:49
  Speaker 8: The only thing that I've taken away from all that stuff,
• 21:52
  Speaker 8: the only thing that sticks, is that orcas are dicks.
• 21:56
  Speaker 8: They're the biggest dicks on the planet. They just fuck
• 22:00
  Speaker 8: with you for fun.
• 22:01
  Speaker 11: They don't.
• 22:02
  Speaker 8: They don't even kill some stuff. They're just like, we're
• 22:04
  Speaker 8: just going to bite the shit out of you, and
• 22:07
  Speaker 8: maybe we'll eat a chunk out of you and just
• 22:09
  Speaker 8: leave the rest. We just followed you for hours because
• 22:12
  Speaker 8: we hate you.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: Because they take it personal. Have you seen Orca? Maybe
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: we should put that on the list for future reference.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: Because I believe in the movie Orca, like the Orca,
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: and spoiler alert, the Orca's baby gets killed, and it
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: remembers Orca. It makes it a personal mission to attack
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: the person who killed its baby and follow them around
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: and go to the town where they live and attack
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: that town. It personally remembers things and has the revenge plots.
• 22:43
  Speaker 8: Yeah, but that orca has a reason. Most of them
• 22:47
  Speaker 8: just like to hurt things and kill them, not even
• 22:51
  Speaker 8: eat them, just because they're like, you're going to die now.
• 22:56
  Speaker 8: It's just entertainment for them.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: In Jaws, it was, I mean, you know, Orca was
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: essentially a ripoff of Jaws.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: Most movies are.
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: In Jaws, the shark, like, there's no backstory. It was
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: just a dick, specifically to the Brody family.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, in that first one, not so much.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: It really doesn't become, like, and it depends on how
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: much you count, like, the rest of them. But, like,
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: for the most part, especially in the first one, It's
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: just a shark. Like, it's just being a shark. That's
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: why I'm like, I feel like it is a difference between,
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: you know, whales and sharks. Because I don't think there
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: is anything personal with sharks. Sharks are just like, fuck you,
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: I'm eating things. Like, that's just how it operates. There's
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: no personal attachment. They don't bother to kill you and
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: leave you. Like, they're probably going to eat all of
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: you if they kill you. Because they're hungry, because they
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: have to eat 23 hours out of the day, so... Like,
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like there isn't near a
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: weird take on it from their point of view. They're
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: just like, I'm an animal. This is what I do.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: Orcas are weird and maybe because they have extra brain
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: power or something that they're just kind of like dicks
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: like humans are. So, I don't know. They're one shade
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: away from being people and that just makes them complete
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: and utter jackasses.
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah. It's a glimpse into the worst parts of ourselves.
• 24:13
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's all I had to say.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: Orcas are dicks.
• 24:17
  Speaker 8: Shout out to how much I hate orcas.
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: Orcas are dicks. Creed is awesome.
• 24:20
  Speaker 8: I'm fucking glad that that orca is suffering in SeaWorld.
• 24:25
  Speaker 8: It deserves it probably. It's probably done shitty things and
• 24:28
  Speaker 8: that's like jail for it.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: So now you're just looping blackfish. Yeah.
• 24:34
  Speaker 8: That's how I feel better.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, take that stupid fish.
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: It's like a super max prison.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: Not a fish, I'm a man.
• 24:40
  Speaker 8: There's this one time where this orca This pack of
• 24:44
  Speaker 8: orcas is following this whale.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: They got, like, leather jackets. Yeah. Sitting there, snapping their
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: switchblades out.
• 24:52
  Speaker 8: It's following this whale and its baby. And, like, they
• 24:57
  Speaker 8: need to separate the baby from the mother and then kill, like,
• 25:01
  Speaker 8: drown it.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: Like you do, sure.
• 25:02
  Speaker 8: You know. And so, like, the mom's trying to get
• 25:06
  Speaker 8: the baby awake. And, like, the narrator was like, the
• 25:08
  Speaker 8: orcas could have separated them and killed that baby, like,
• 25:12
  Speaker 8: long ago. But they seem to take joy in, like,
• 25:16
  Speaker 8: its panic. And I was like, because they're, like, sociopaths.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Sociopaths of the ocean.
• 25:23
  Speaker 8: And they eventually do kill that baby.
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: Sure.
• 25:26
  Speaker 8: And they take, like, a bite out of it. And
• 25:29
  Speaker 8: then just, like, the rest of this carcass. Like, they
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: weren't even hungry. Like, the rest of the carcass just
• 25:35
  Speaker 8: flows to the bottom of the ocean. Mm-hmm. And the
• 25:38
  Speaker 8: orca's just like shit on it. And they dance on
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: its grave.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: Just like swim through its blood and just, oh yes,
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: get it on my face.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: Orca. Let's just take a break and go listen to
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Orca right now. So I wrote it all in a letter.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: I don't know if it.
• 26:11
  Speaker 6: Came I know she likes my writing So she keeps
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: it just like me So.
• 26:23
  Speaker 7: That it won't get away I won't.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: Be denied this time Go out of my mind over matters.
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: Got my foot on the ladder and I'm climbing up
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: to the moon.
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: The ancient Romans called him Orca Orcinus, Latin for bringer
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: of death. He is without challenge the most powerful animal
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: on the globe, the killer whale. Orca has 48 feet,
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: set in two impressive rows. In some respects, the Orca's
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: intelligence may be even superior to man's. They remain loyal
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: to one mate for life. As parents, they are exemplary,
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: better than many human beings. And like human beings, they
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: have a profound instinct for vengeance. an innocent creature is
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: destroyed by an act of human cruelty and the ultimate
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: battle of man against nature begins dino de laurentis presents orca.
• 27:40
  Speaker 6: Can you commit a sin against an animal.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: He followed you he saw you on the deck of
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: the boat.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: They always remember the human being who had tried to
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: harm them.
• 27:52
  Speaker 7: He deliberately left you your boat because he wants to
• 27:54
  Speaker 7: fight you on the sea.
• 27:57
  Speaker 10: I won't do that.
• 28:00
  Speaker 8: Now the fish have vanished from the fishing grounds.
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: And it's all because of your winger.
• 28:08
  Speaker 8: In fact, I won't fight him at all.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: You're not even man enough to accept the excitement of
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: this challenge.
• 28:18
  Speaker 10: I'll fight you!
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: You're a.

• 32:55
  Speaker 8: World of Warcraft, but only for like hunters because the
• 32:59
  Speaker 8: only armor they wear is leather. So World of Leathercraft
• 33:03
  Speaker 8: for all of you hunters out there who need a new,
• 33:05
  Speaker 8: what is it, quill? What is it?
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: Quiver?
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: Quiver, quiver. You're slacking in your archery terminology.
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: Again, I'm not sure about that, but I would check
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: and see. She could probably piece something together for you.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: Special orders might be an option. I would email in.
• 33:23
  Speaker 8: Customizables.
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: It is customizable. You might be able to put your
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: initials on it. You name some sort of weird character,
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: she'll probably carve it in there like it were Admiral Ackbar.
• 33:34
  Speaker 10: So just go to worldofleathercraft.com and take a look at

  Speaker 5: It's time for Sofa Theater.
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: We've been planning our 11th Apollo mission to the moon
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: in 10 days time. We still don't have a clue
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: whether the thing's going to make.
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: It or not.
• 34:45
  Speaker 8: So here's the plan.
• 34:46
  Speaker 6: Meet with Kubrick.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: Convince him. You know, film a pretend moon landing.
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: Derek Kaye?
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: Huh?
• 34:57
  Speaker 5: I just hit you on the phone. We have a
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: proposal for Mr. Kubrick.
• 35:00
  Speaker 10: Cool.
• 35:01
  Speaker 5: There's a considerable amount of money in this project. What
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: are you going to do? Sit in there for five
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: minutes and pretend to be Stanley Kubrick?
• 35:09
  Speaker 8: We decided that there's only one man in the world
• 35:11
  Speaker 8: that can pull this off.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: And that man is?
• 35:15
  Speaker 8: You call like a dog this night, I see him
• 35:19
  Speaker 8: in you.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: Stanley Kubrick has made a rare visit to continental Europe.
• 35:29
  Speaker 7: Nice shirt, dude.
• 35:37
  Speaker 9: Hey there.
• 35:39
  Speaker 8: Oh.
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: Do you really want to go back to your boss
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: and tell him that you don't have Stanley Kubrick and
• 35:44
  Speaker 5: you don't have the money? We must be the only
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: hope you've got.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: We're not a sin. We'd want to know if you'd
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: be interested in making a film.
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: We need it in seven days.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: I can't make a film in seven days.
• 35:56
  Speaker 8: Bounce, it takes three years.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: What if we doubled your money? Do you think I'm
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: a whore?
• 36:01
  Speaker 7: I'm an artist.
• 36:02
  Speaker 8: Triple.
• 36:02
  Speaker 5: OK.
• 36:02
  Speaker 8: I'm trying!
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: You can bury my.
• 36:06
  Speaker 7: Love You can bury my love.
• 36:28
  Speaker 9: Now, Andy, did you hear about this one? Tell me,
• 36:33
  Speaker 9: are you locked in a punch? Andy, are you goofing
• 36:38
  Speaker 9: on Elvis? Hey, baby, I will lose in touch. If
• 36:43
  Speaker 9: you believe they put a man.
• 36:47
  Speaker 8: On the moon, man on the moon.
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: If you believe.
• 36:53
  Speaker 9: There's nothing up my sleeve, nothing that's cool.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: Alright, so let's get into it. This week's Sofa Theater
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: feature is Moonwalkers. Do you want to jump up and
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: do some sort of moonwalking while we break this down?
• 37:09
  Speaker 8: Everybody, I'm moonwalking right now.
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 37:12
  Speaker 8: Check it out. Feel it.
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: Can you see it?
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: Look at that. Nick is on fire. The year is 2015.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: The director, I'm going to attempt this, Antoine Bardot-Jacques?
• 37:26
  Speaker 8: Can I try?
• 37:27
  Speaker 9: Antoine Bardot-Jacques.
• 37:30
  Speaker 8: Antoine Bardot-Jacquet.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: I went too far up. They plot, according to IMDb,
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: after failing to locate the legendary Stanley Kubrick, an unstable
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: CIA agent must instead team up with a seedy rock
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: band manager to develop the biggest con of all time,
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: staging the moon landing. Spoiler alert. I mean, I guess
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: half of that's a spoiler. But anyway, yeah, go watch
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: this movie. It just popped up on Netflix. that one
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: streaming service we don't have to plug them but one
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: of those that probably everyone you know has.
• 38:05
  Speaker 8: The one that you can blank and chill with i.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: Didn't get any chill by the way i just watched
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: the damn movie never pans out for me anyway so
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: yeah it just showed up and out of sheer curiosity
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: or general weirdness i was like ron perlman and ron
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: weasley in a movie together kind of need to see
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: that yeah so yeah there's there's your lead off right
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: there so actually anything with ron perlman i was kind
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: of already 90 sold and then i was like and
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: i have i seen ron weasley in anything else i
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: think he's done a few other things but i don't
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: know if i've seen him in anything else so it
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: was i kind of wanted to see him in a
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: normal ish role and i guess this is normal in
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: certain circles.
• 38:54
  Speaker 4: Ron perlman is he's a prolific dude He can be.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: And he looks like an ape.
• 38:59
  Speaker 4: Alien Resurrection. Quest for Fire. What other franchise did he
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: help close down?
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: See, here's my thing. And I think I may have
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: brought it up on the show before, but I was
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: immediately impressed and confused by him. Mostly because... I mean,
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: I guess I can get back to... I guess I
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: knew him from Beauty and the Beast. I can get
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: back to that sad little world. As a movie geek,
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: the first time I saw him was in Kronos where
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: he speaks Spanish. The next thing I remembered seeing him
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: in is City of Lost Children where he speaks French.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: And then I'm like, I know he's on a dumb
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: TV show on CBS, so he obviously speaks English. How
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: many freaking languages does this dude speak? And then you
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: look at him and go, he speaks English, period, let
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: alone two or three other languages? He looks like the
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: kind of guy who'd be in a biker gang. Oh, wait,
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: that's what everybody knows him for now. So the fact
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: that he also speaks at least enough to get by
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: in a movie two other languages is He's way more
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: faceted than I expected a guy like that to be.
• 40:06
  Speaker 8: Yeah, he's an enigma.
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: He's pretty damn interesting.
• 40:09
  Speaker 8: With his eyes very close together.
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: Makes me uncomfortable.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: He's a beast. What do you want?
• 40:14
  Speaker 11: Literally.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: He's the beast.
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: I thought he would communicate in a series of grunts.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Doesn't he sing? That's what you would think. And then
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: watching him speak French, I'm just like, okay, but this
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: is weird.
• 40:26
  Speaker 8: I actually re-watched Beauty and the Beast just a couple
• 40:29
  Speaker 8: months ago.
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: The TV series?
• 40:32
  Speaker 11: Wait.
• 40:33
  Speaker 8: Is he in the, oh, I thought you were saying
• 40:35
  Speaker 8: that he was the Beast.
• 40:36
  Speaker 11: In the movie.
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: He's not Robbie Benson.
• 40:38
  Speaker 8: Okay. That makes me sad now. I like thinking about
• 40:41
  Speaker 8: him as the Beast.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: No, I was, if I want to get back to
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: my threat to get back to Beauty and the Beast,
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: there's nothing, when you, the way they used to describe, like,
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: comic book fanboy kind of geeks, you really can't throw
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: that around. I mean, they're still out there, don't get
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: me wrong. I make fun of them and might be
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: one of them. But, like, they used to, like, categorize
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: them as a very specific, sad stereotype. And that was
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: the dorky, like, 40-year-old guy, mom's basement story. The same
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: thing everybody usually sells. But at that point, it was
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: mostly guys. Like, you know, only recently have the girls, like,
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: full-on geek mode moved into that territory. Except if you
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: go back to the girls that were into Beauty and
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: the Beast, when that thing was still on network television
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: and right after when they released it on videocassette, it
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: was the scariest group of women I've ever seen. Like,
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: I remember them coming in to get that thing when
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: it came out, and I was like, oh, this is
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: going home to so many cats. so many cats are
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: waiting for you vhs tape have a good time i
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: wish you luck there were some scary scary women that
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: were waiting for beast to come and get them oh
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: yeah that's another thing that i'm just like the fact
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: that he broke out of that tv show and isn't
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: still known mostly for that because that seems like the
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: kind of thing that could seal your fate like that's
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: almost a star trek kiss of death you know once
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: you're on that show you're done you're just gonna be
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: that for the rest of your life so again it
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: It says a lot about Ron Perlman's acting that he's completely...
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: Rarely does anybody mention that anymore. Now he's just a
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: weird biker dude for most people.
• 42:18
  Speaker 8: He's transcended the beast.
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: No offense to those ladies. I'm equally as sad. But
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: it was odd seeing that little window into old school
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: geek girls. They were ahead of the curve, those girls.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: So anyway, Moonwalkers. I think, yeah, I think I'd already
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: decided mostly on the cast. I don't think I even
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: knew what the plot was when I went, here's the thing.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: And you were like, yep, sure is. And next thing
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: you know, we were watching it. So did you at
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: least read into the plot before you were.
• 42:54
  Speaker 8: Knee deep into it? Yeah, I read a little blurb
• 42:57
  Speaker 8: and I saw the word CIA and I saw moon
• 43:01
  Speaker 8: landing and I was like, okay, yeah, I'm into it.
• 43:03
  Speaker 8: I'll watch this.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: We got suckered in pretty easily. Yeah.
• 43:06
  Speaker 8: And I mean, it looked interesting. Like the little poster
• 43:10
  Speaker 8: for it was all like old school looking. I was like,
• 43:12
  Speaker 8: that's neat.
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: You know, fancy artwork. Yeah.
• 43:15
  Speaker 8: But yeah, I was, I mean, of course wasn't sold
• 43:18
  Speaker 8: on the movie immediately, but just even the first like
• 43:19
  Speaker 8: few shots, like I just liked the way it looked immediately.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, it does open pretty creatively. You're basically in
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: a dream as we come into the movie. Again, if
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: we want to get into questions, because I just saw
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: enough of it to know, like, I read through, like,
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: the first sentence that, like, somebody's, like, a weird soldier
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: having flashbacks or whatever. And I'm like, so I guess,
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: or I may have even listed it as Ron Perlman.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: I'm like, so is this modern day? Because for him
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: to be, again, at this point, our only near closest war,
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: other than the ones we're still half involved in, is Vietnam.
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, Vietnam guys are getting old now. I'm like,
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: he could be a Vietnam vet and be his age now.
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: It's about that window of when it would have been.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: So that's the weird part, I guess, is that it's,
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: what did we say, 69? Is it early 69, I guess,
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: when this is going on? And yet he's that old
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: and he just got out of Vietnam.
• 44:18
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I guess he wasn't like a soldier soldier.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: He was special ops, he said.
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: He was special ops. He was probably doing Operation Phoenix, probably.
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: I guess that was the one I was like, I
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: guess I'll give you a technical out there. Also, it's
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: a movie, so who cares? But I was just like,
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: the old guys in Vietnam were 25, you know? Like,
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: not however old he is now. It would be weird
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: for you to be 30 years old in Vietnam, which
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: was not the case. Go back to World War II.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: All the officers were old. 30, 35-year-old dudes still in
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: the middle of the war. But that was not the
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: case by the time you get to Vietnam. You're lucky
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: to be out of your teens by the time you're
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: an officer. It was just weird casting from that angle.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: From that point on, it works fine because I can
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: watch Ron Perlman... Be Ron Perlman all day long. That's
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: something I realized by the end of the movie. I'm
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: just like, man, I never tire of watching Ron Perlman
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: just beat the hell.
• 45:17
  Speaker 4: Out of people. He just has a natural physicality. It
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: looks like he could put both of his hands on
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: the side of your head and actually crush your head.
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: I think he threatens that at one point. I think
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: he threatens that at some point.
• 45:34
  Speaker 8: And his face is always in a permanent frown. Grimace.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: So yeah, we immediately get into the weird dream sequence
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: and the fade out with pillows. Again, it is kind
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: of an interesting way to go in and then cut
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: from that into the animated intro, the credits sequence, which
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: is just insanity. Again, for that time period, it actually
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: even Some of that style spills a little forward into
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: the 70s, I feel like.
• 46:04
  Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, definitely.
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: Either way, like, it still kind of fits the time period.
• 46:08
  Speaker 8: There was a lot of cunnilingus.
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, and everything looks like it's stolen from some
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: album cover somewhere. Like, there's 14 different little shots, and
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: I'm like, all right.
• 46:17
  Speaker 8: Like a yellow submarine-y.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: This is yellow submarine. This is Led Zeppelin 3. This is, like,
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: everything looks like a weird album cover shot brought to life.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: So that, again, I always like interesting, like, credit sequences
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: so if you can do something interesting and not just
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: like throw some words on the screen yeah that's always
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: kind of cool so they definitely they threw some effort
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: into that one it's it's crazy and weird and weird
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: for weird sake a lot of the time but at
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: least it's interesting.
• 46:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah yeah this movie had a lot of weird for.
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: Weird sake a little bit yeah i guess the band
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: is next up.
• 46:56
  Speaker 8: Oh, that was the most annoying guy.
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 46:58
  Speaker 8: The most annoying character I've ever seen was the lead
• 47:01
  Speaker 8: singer of the band.
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: First of all, you're not supposed to be that unattractive
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: and be the lead singer of any band. Yeah. I mean,
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: that's your job.
• 47:10
  Speaker 8: That was the horsiest smile.
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: Even if you can't sing, you're at least supposed to
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: be pretty. Like, that's your job.
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: Like, come on.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: And he has to be the worst lead singer of
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: any band because he specifically calls out the fact he's
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: not getting laid. I'm like, Dude, even if you're unattractive
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: and you're in a band, you get laid. That's the
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: only reason people are in bands.
• 47:30
  Speaker 8: And you could see he had no game. He just
• 47:33
  Speaker 8: walked up to this girl at the bar like, hey,
• 47:35
  Speaker 8: I'm the lead singer of a band.
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: The girl's response was kind of priceless. Whoever that chick
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: was points to her because that was a great performance
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: for 30 seconds of her being like, get away from me.
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: And then immediately being interested in the other guy in
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: the band. It's like, that's kind of fun. I like that.
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: It was like if a roadie actually somehow became the
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: lead singer.
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: That's an insult to roadies, I think. That guy was horrible.
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: And just annoying on top of that. That's how it
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: was written. He was supposed to be annoying, but he
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: certainly played that really well.
• 48:14
  Speaker 8: He looked like Robert Plant mixed with Kylo Ren. That's
• 48:19
  Speaker 8: what he looked like to me. This greasy....
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: I don't think either of them are unattractive enough to
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: pull this off. And they're not, neither of them are
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: like the prettiest people in the world.
• 48:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah, he's got like the big, like wavy hair, like
• 48:33
  Speaker 8: Robert Plant.
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Robert Plant look. But yeah, he's... Yellow teeth.
• 48:39
  Speaker 8: When he like opens his mouth, it's all gums. And
• 48:43
  Speaker 8: it looked like little teeth, little chiclet teeth.
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're not selling me. Even if I hadn't already
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: seen him, this description's not gonna... bringing any of the
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: girls around either yeah so and also i guess i
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: mean there's a lot of coke in this movie yeah
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: like almost like it was set in 1987 or something
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: like yeah it seems a little high in the coke
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: usage i can see like tons of weed sure but
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: like 69 to be that yeah there's a lot of
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: coke and i don't know there's a lot of.
• 49:16
  Speaker 8: Drugs Maybe in the UK there was more coke.
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: Maybe so. It seems like, yeah, all the stories I
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: hear of just like non-stop coke uses once you hit
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: the 80s, specifically mid-80s, it's like just.
• 49:26
  Speaker 8: Would you know something about this, Nick?
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: Handing out coke right and left.
• 49:29
  Speaker 8: Because in the movie there's a lot of coke use.
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: A lot of coke.
• 49:32
  Speaker 8: But it's in its.
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: It's in the late 60s.
• 49:34
  Speaker 8: In the late 60s, which doesn't seem right, but it's
• 49:36
  Speaker 8: in the UK, and I don't know.
• 49:38
  Speaker 4: I mean... Coke was around then. I don't think... But
• 49:44
  Speaker 4: low-grade rock stars?
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: That seems like an odd... Again, if these were top-notch
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: rock stars, probably had some Coke. But there was a
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: lot of Coke for people that weren't all that successful.
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I could definitely see that. It kind of looks
• 49:58
  Speaker 4: like it's a little out of time.
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: They're not on a speedboat off the coast of Miami
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: just having fun. It's the late 60s in England.
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: I can see... Tons of weed. Probably a good amount
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: of acid. Sure, I can see that. But it's a
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: lot of coke.
• 50:16
  Speaker 4: Listen, I'm not going to let him fuck me up
• 50:18
  Speaker 4: the ass.
• 50:20
  Speaker 10: What are you talking about?
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: I hear stories, man.
• 50:22
  Speaker 9: These Hollywood dudes.
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: Are at it all the time.
• 50:24
  Speaker 8: Oh, fuck.
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, shit, I feel sick.
• 50:33
  Speaker 6: I think I've got a stage fright.
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: Hang on, I need to relax.
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: Hang on.
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: Leon? Leon? What's in the bag, Leon?
• 50:42
  Speaker 9: Leon!
• 50:45
  Speaker 8: Ips.
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: Repair that, you glue.
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: Fucking junkie, you're doing this.
• 50:50
  Speaker 8: To me now. Wake up, Leon, you fucking junkie.
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: Take some of this.
• 51:04
  Speaker 7: Go on, get more, all of it.
• 51:07
  Speaker 8: Come on.
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: How do you feel.
• 51:11
  Speaker 8: Now powerful like a horse.
• 51:18
  Speaker 5: Listen all you've got to do is sit in there
• 51:21
  Speaker 5: for five minutes and pretend to be stanley.
• 51:23
  Speaker 6: Kubrick all right you can do it i know you
• 51:26
  Speaker 6: can pull it off yeah all right okay okay yeah
• 51:29
  Speaker 6: okay how do i look okay great.
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: So do we want to go ahead and get into
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: the Kubrick tie in because there's a lot of fun
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: at Kubrick's expense or I guess playing with the fact
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: that not everybody knows what movie directors look like.
• 51:48
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: I'm like, actually, I was thinking, I'm like, that's still
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: true today. especially like late sixties era of normal people
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: in the world. Like there's no Google, there's not constant
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: like entertainment television show any of these people. So I'm like,
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: even now, like if you went into your average Walmart
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: and lined up people and we're like, here's three guys
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: point out Christopher Nolan, how many times would they get
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: it right? Like, yeah, I feel like even now, unless
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: you're Spielberg, most people don't know what you look like anyway.
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: So yeah, that probably makes sense, especially for the time
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: period that, would not know what Stanley Kubrick looked like.
• 52:25
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 52:25
  Speaker 8: And he just got back from NAMM, and he had
• 52:28
  Speaker 8: one picture that got ruined on the flight over, and
• 52:31
  Speaker 8: all he saw was beard.
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: That guy was a jerk anyway.
• 52:34
  Speaker 4: That's great.
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: That dude he was next to.
• 52:36
  Speaker 4: That's a great way to brief someone on what their
• 52:38
  Speaker 4: mission is. Give them one picture. Like, here you go.
• 52:42
  Speaker 4: No other, not even a profile shot of Stanley Kubrick?
• 52:45
  Speaker 8: Nope.
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: Just find a dude with a beard. That's all you need.
• 52:48
  Speaker 4: Like, no, no. Hey, boss, does he have any other identifiable...
• 52:51
  Speaker 4: Like scars or birthmarks? No, just this face.
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: His name is Kubrick. You know, that guy.
• 52:58
  Speaker 4: You know, he's kind of frumpy. He's got like a beard.
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: Probably doesn't care what the hell's going on around him.
• 53:03
  Speaker 4: He likes chess, apparently.
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: He's doing his own thing.
• 53:07
  Speaker 5: He's Kubrick.
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: That's his way he rolls. So yeah, I don't know.
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: That enters in its own weird little world of, I guess,
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: then it becomes... are you a Kubrick fan enough that
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: you're going to watch this movie just because of that?
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: Because the whole time they're constantly talking about Kubrick and
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: he's sort of a character in the movie, but he's
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: not a character.
• 53:27
  Speaker 8: He's not a character.
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: He's not at all a character in the movie really,
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: but within the story purposes, he sort of is.
• 53:35
  Speaker 8: And it's based on the, the true, like, the.
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: True story that's even what the tagline is based on
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: a true life conspiracy theory or something like that yeah
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: it's a.
• 53:47
  Speaker 8: Real conspiracy theory.
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: That pretty well known when at this point at the
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: time or even like in 70s and early 80s i
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: don't know how many people but like now everybody knows
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: that story so much that a documentary came out about
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: it recently like There's tons and tons of people that
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: constantly talk about that. So again, I think that this
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: movie only works now, really. Had they tried to make
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: it a few years after the moon landing, it wouldn't
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: have made any sense to anybody. But now it's so
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: like just woven into pop culture that this is almost
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: the other accepted theory. Like this is almost, you know,
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: the 40% of the population probably believes this story. So
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: it's like, it's pretty, pretty well established as a conspiracy theory. Yeah.
• 54:31
  Speaker 8: I like the argument behind the conspiracy theory. I don't
• 54:35
  Speaker 8: believe the conspiracy, but, like, it's like, that would be
• 54:37
  Speaker 8: a really good reason to, like, trick, like, the Soviet
• 54:40
  Speaker 8: Union into spending all this money.
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: Like, that would.
• 54:43
  Speaker 8: Be a great.
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: If you could do it feasibly, yeah, that'd be a
• 54:47
  Speaker 4: nice idea.
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: I don't think I'd ever, and maybe I haven't paid
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: that much attention to the actual conspiracy theory. I don't
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: know how official it is, if they've written it down
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: in text form, but, like, I don't think I'd ever
• 54:57
  Speaker 2: thought about it as a backup plan. Like I think
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: I'd always heard it as, oh, the government just faked it.
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: Like it was all fake. And like from day one,
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: they never planned on going to the moon. It was
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: all just faked. I like that there was this like
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: backup plan of like, okay, we're going to try to
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: do it. But assuming that there's a good chance we
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: fail because we kind of don't know what we're doing
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: in our space program yet. Not that we necessarily do
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: now since we really don't have a space program now.
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: So we still haven't learned how to do it right.
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: But yeah, the fact that this was sort of the
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: fallback plan is kind of an interesting piece that I
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: hadn't thought about before.
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, there's like the spectrum of the conspiracy. Like on
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: a far end, it's like, you know, it was just faked.
• 55:38
  Speaker 4: For no reason, almost. It's just for evil.
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: Just to fuck with evil.
• 55:43
  Speaker 4: Just to be evil and to be deceptive.
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: It's the government. That's what we do.
• 55:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and on the other end, it's like it was
• 55:49
  Speaker 4: faked for this, you know, as a contingency plan.
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: That almost made more sense because it was like, again,
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: the government being evil for the sake of being evil,
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: I can kind of see that too. But this also,
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: it comes through almost like a plausible, like, okay, we
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: have to save face. We're competing against the Russians. We
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: don't want to look bad in front of the public.
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: All these other reasons come into play. You're like, yeah,
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: they've done way more devious shit than that that we
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: know about now. I certainly could see this being a
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: legit thing that the government would be like, all right,
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: we've got to come up with some sort of backup
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: plan when this doesn't happen. That was kind of cool.
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: It's interesting. This reminded me, actually, in the movie Interstellar,
• 56:29
  Speaker 4: There's a reference to Moon Landing Conspiracy. This is a
• 56:31
  Speaker 4: very brief little moment. But Murph, Murph, her teacher, her
• 56:39
  Speaker 4: teacher was talking to Matthew McConaughey's character about her performance
• 56:43
  Speaker 4: in the school or something like that. And she's like,
• 56:45
  Speaker 4: she's great, but she keeps bringing up that we went
• 56:47
  Speaker 4: to the moon, but we didn't do that. Because, you know,
• 56:50
  Speaker 4: they're all just living in this dust bowl. And they, like,
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: they had adopted the conspiracy idea. theory for the future
• 56:58
  Speaker 4: generations and their education curriculum as a way to focus
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: on Earth and rebuild this shitty planet. Yeah, I thought
• 57:08
  Speaker 4: that was interesting.
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: That is kind of a... Murph! Don't you love Murph?
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: Isn't Murph your girl?
• 57:14
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I like her as the grown-up more, though. Jessica Chastain, yeah!
• 57:19
  Speaker 2: We all like Jessica Chastain.
• 57:22
  Speaker 8: I think, I mean, any episode I've been on, I
• 57:24
  Speaker 8: feel like I just like, you know, Fangirl over her.
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: Jock and Jessica Chastain. So, again, there's moments that only
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: work now. You have these movies that are set in
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: the past, and they constantly sort of hammer the jokes
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: from the future. It's one of those, they always do
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: it in goofy time travel movies or something, or anything
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: that we're looking back at a time in the past
• 57:52
  Speaker 2: where you could have somebody say things like, Films are dead.
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: What everybody's going to be looking at is computers.
• 57:58
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: And it's like most people are probably watching this movie
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: on their computer at that moment. So it's scary on
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: one hand. At the same time, it's like a very
• 58:08
  Speaker 2: specific joke that's inserted in there for the people that
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: it applies to at that very moment. It is exactly
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: where the future is going, actually. But yeah, I thought.
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: On the one hand, that's kind of cool, but again,
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: it only works in those type of movies where it's like, okay,
• 58:23
  Speaker 2: we can make the jokes because we're living decades in
• 58:27
  Speaker 2: the future. We can now nail down exactly what's going
• 58:30
  Speaker 2: to be hilarious in 30 years.
• 58:32
  Speaker 8: I guess this wasn't necessarily a joke, but it was topical,
• 58:36
  Speaker 8: like how... his drug use, like, you know, helped heal
• 58:43
  Speaker 8: his PTSD and, like, all that stuff. Because, like, that's
• 58:47
  Speaker 8: the conversation that's going on right now is, like, how
• 58:49
  Speaker 8: well psychedelics and marijuana, like, are used for, like, treatment
• 58:54
  Speaker 8: and how effective they are. And there's, like, the current
• 58:58
  Speaker 8: kind of debate about it. But they're, like, making an
• 59:01
  Speaker 8: argument for it.
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: In the movie. I'm trying to decide because I specifically
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: noticed a change midway into the movie and I was like,
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: are they making that exact point or did they just
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: get distracted or lazy or whatever? Because his flashback kind
• 59:18
  Speaker 2: of stuff coming into the real world happened a lot
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: in that first half. He'll be standing there having a
• 59:24
  Speaker 2: conversation like normal and there's like half blown off faces
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: of Vietnamese soldiers in the room with him while he's
• 59:31
  Speaker 2: talking to people and like that happens quite a few
• 59:33
  Speaker 2: times in that first half and then it's like they
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: just forgot about it or maybe that all also happens
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: after they does a good amount of what all opium
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: and marijuana and acid so it's like did that are they.
• 59:47
  Speaker 8: Making that point maybe because he said something about like
• 59:50
  Speaker 8: when he was like tripping on acid or mushrooms or
• 59:52
  Speaker 8: something like how he didn't want to kill that guy.
• 59:55
  Speaker 8: He was like, huh, for the first time, I don't
• 59:57
  Speaker 8: want to kill you. And he would look at his hand, and.
• 59:59
  Speaker 2: It wouldn't be shaking. It wasn't shaking for once.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 8: Even after he sobered up, he looked at his hand,
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 8: and it wasn't shaking anymore. So I think that they
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 8: were making that point.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 4: You know what the message is? If you've got mental illness,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 4: do some drugs.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 8: Do some drugs. But maybe not coke.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 9: No.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah. If you don't, maybe it leads to your messed
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: up brain, which is, yeah.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 2: So only people who are mentally damaged are allowed to
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: do drugs.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 5: There we go.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: If you start off okay, then just lay off it, guys.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 3: Come on now.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah. I think, like, the research now, they're kind of, like,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 4: picking up where, you know, clinicians and psychiatrists were kind
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 4: of where they left off back in, like, their 60s
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 4: and 50s is now, like, the medical community is starting
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 4: to kind of dip their toes. They have to like
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 4: maneuver around a lot of laws and regulations and drug wards, shit.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 4: But slowly, but surely there's more, a little bit more
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 4: research is kind of trickling out some really interesting questions.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 4: And I think it's, um, there's like a little turn
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 4: in the tide and the medical community where like this,
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 4: some of this stuff looks interesting. We should, we should
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 4: have more research on it because you know, it could
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 4: alleviate suffering.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it is a drug like all the
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: other drugs we actually use. So maybe it's about finding
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: the right way to use it. So I think it
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: is worth. I think there is some merit to all
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: of that. I think even within the context of this movie,
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 2: it's like maybe that's it. Maybe it's finding the happy
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 2: medium there because he uses it and gets better actually.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: Then we have the other end of the spectrum where
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 2: these guys are barely functional as human beings. By the
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: end of the movie, our Kubrick dude is like, Like
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: the whole last half of the movie, like he is
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: so drugged up, like he can't do anything. He gets
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 2: more and more nervous. Yeah.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 8: He gets more and more like freaked out and like.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 4: Close to psychotic.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: That's my take is like maybe it's finding that in-between
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: point where it's like, okay, some drugs might be helpful.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: Too many drugs, you're useless.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: So yeah, it's somewhere in between. We just have to
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: find that, you know, that in-between spot. Mm-hmm. I guess
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: next we should address the fact that you wouldn't necessarily
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 2: expect it so much. You're watching this movie. It's relatively fun.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: And it's got Ron Weasley. And it's pretty fun and lighthearted.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 2: And oh, violence!
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 8: So much violence.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: But not for a long time. It's relatively fun comedy.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: Oh my God, that dude's head just got blown off.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 2: Literally blown off.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 8: It's short but really intense violent scenes. I guess it's
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 8: supposed to be, I saw it was listed as an
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 8: action comedy, and I was like, most of this movie
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 8: I would not classify as action, but then it's like,
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 8: they go into a room and he destroys four or
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 8: five people in a matter of five or ten seconds.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 2: Comedy with a good amount of shooting. How about that? Yeah. Yeah,
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: but again, from the other movie geek side of it,
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: those effects look really good. For a minimal budget movie,
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: I was like, those shots of people getting their head
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 2: literally blown off look pretty damn good.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 8: They did, yeah.
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was surprised that it looked that good for
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: something that's not a horror movie that was banking on
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: that huge shot being the draw for it. It was
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: like the fact that it's not really important to... That happened.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: And it looked that good. And it was kind of entertaining.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: That kind of goes in with watching Ron Perlman beat
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 2: the hell out of people. It's also really satisfying watching
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 2: him just walk into a room and just annihilate people.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 2: And you gave him a chance.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: He's like, look, here's what I'm going to do. Okay,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: here's what I'm going to do for everybody else. And
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: be like, here's my warning shot on this guy's head.
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 2: And everybody else, you might be able to live if
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: you do what I say.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 8: But yeah, he was just When he broke that guy's
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 8: nose with his knee, I was just like.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 2: Oh, God.
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 8: Like, that was so abrupt. I thought I was like, okay,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 8: maybe he'll throw him down.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 9: No.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 8: Like, knee to nose, and then you hear the horrible crunch.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: And it does make me wonder if he was brought
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: in as part of this scenario. Because that's the point
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: when you're like, this story doesn't work without that guy.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: Unless it's Ron Perlman or... Or a handful of other
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: people that you will buy just walking into a room
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 2: and doing that. Like this movie falls apart because he
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: has to be like, you get to that point where
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 2: he's like, like he has no fear. He has no
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 2: questioning of doing whatever the hell he wants. So like
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: you have like mobsters that steal your money and he's like,
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: where are they? Like, the fact that he's going to
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 2: walk unarmed into a room full of mobsters and then
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: tell them to give him a suitcase full of a
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: lot of money back and does not think twice about it. And, like,
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: there has to be the right casting to make that
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: decision come off real.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 4: And, like, I did not question.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: It when it was Ron Perlman. I'm like, yep, that
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: motherfucker's going to get his money back.
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 8: Yeah, because it's not like any CIA operative would do
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 8: something that rash. But he was just so, like, messed up. Like,
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 8: in the head, and also just, like, his stature and demeanor, like, just, like,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 8: led you to be like, okay, I accept this.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: And I think he just didn't care. Like, I've always
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: said that with these kind of movies. I'm like, if
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: you just don't give a fuck, like, you are pretty
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 2: damn powerful. Because you don't worry about consequences, which again,
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 2: we don't get much in his like other side of life,
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: but I'm assuming he had nothing else in his life.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 2: Like he has no relationships that we ever see. He
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: has no reason to worry about getting killed. So he doesn't,
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 2: obviously he just walks into a room and like, I'm
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: going to get what I want to get. And I
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: don't really care. Like, I don't even think about it
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: injuring me. And because of that, it never does. Like,
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: because of that, he's trained enough to actually be able
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: to back it up. But it's just also that lack
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: of fear. makes you damn near indestructible if you're smart
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 2: and trained enough to back it up.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 8: He doesn't have hesitation.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah. He just lays people out because he can.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 4: It reminded me of Martin Sheen's character in Apocalypse Now.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 4: They're both kind of messed up and they both got
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 4: to do these arduous quests and they're just almost bulletproof.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 4: They should die.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 4: But they don't. They survive.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 9: Spoiler.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 8: Spoiler.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: I threw it out there earlier If they've made it
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 2: this far They did not make use of their streaming
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: service That they probably have But yeah as we get
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: into the constant shootouts I did Especially by the time
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 2: we get to the end We've got like Two dudes
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 2: in a hallway From like 10 feet away Missing each
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: other with shotguns Like sometimes we enter movie scenes In
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 2: quotes Because like one of those shots would probably have
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 2: killed the other guy but like they're talking back and
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: forth and like ducking around a doorway and i'm like
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 2: that door would be gone it's a shotgun for god's
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 2: sakes so like the fact that they're still carrying like
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: they get three or four shots off and nobody gets
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: hit and i'm like with shotguns and you're right next
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: to each other i'm like yeah there's sometimes it enters
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: in the movie.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 8: World yeah for sure it's.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 2: Like that's that's pretty funny But then we have the
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 2: weird old mobster guy at the very end that he's fighting.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 2: You got to give that guy credit because he pulled
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: out a machete and went after Ron Perlman, who is
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: twice his size, half his age.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 8: He was just mad because he ruined his little stick masterpiece.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he messed up his matchstick structures.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 8: I don't think he cared about the money at all.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 2: Was he doing London Bridge or something?
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it was something like that.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 8: But he, I mean, and Ron Perlman just like annihilated that.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 2: It was funny how long it took. Like I assumed
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: he was immediately going to walk over and just trash it.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: And he's got the gun just sort of hanging right
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: over top of it the whole time they're talking. And
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: you're like, here comes, oh, here, no, no, no. Like
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: they drug it out for like an extra 60 seconds
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 2: of you going, okay, he's going to destroy it, right?
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 2: He's got to destroy it. Yeah, they kind of were
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: playing with you a little bit there. Like, okay, we
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: know Ron Perlman's going to destroy this. He destroys things.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 2: That's his job. So, yeah, that was kind of fun
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: watching them tease you with that a little extra there.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 2: We also have the CIA agents that show up out
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 2: of nowhere there at the end.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 8: Yeah, because they noticed that Perlman was high on his ass.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: Perlman calls in and.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 8: in all these CIA guys to kind of take care
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 8: of business.
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 2: And they did it as infallible as the CIA always
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: does things.
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: So yeah, it is kind of fun watching them get
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 2: the feed off of the nonsense that they're shooting. So
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 2: watching the CIA guys watching whatever is coming through now
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: and they're just like, what the hell is this?
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 8: Just like dancing around and going, wee!
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 2: With very visible wires they're hanging off of.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 8: And they're like, how do I put the flag in
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 8: the ground? I can't get the flag in. Just like
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 8: messing everything up and they're both high off their asses.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 2: And I guess we have to address the director. the
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 2: hell's going on there? That little world they create is
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 2: kind of, again, that's the whole middle part of the movie.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: Is once they go to visit the director and then
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 2: he becomes part of this giant plot and they start
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: building this set and that guy's like, again, perfect casting, disturbing,
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: and just something not right about him.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 8: No, he's like one of those unsettling guru types.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: And yet super artsy, beyond the level that he actually
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: has talent, pretentiousness. The guy that spends three years shooting Bounce,
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: a series of hefty guys jumping on trampolines in black
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 2: and white in slow-mo. This is the artsy kind of
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 2: shit that was going on in 1969.
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 8: I thought that was an epiphany moment because they go
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 8: in and they're like, oh, I don't know if this
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 8: guy's going to work out for this movie. And then
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 8: he's like, this is my masterpiece, Bounce. And I thought
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 8: he was going to be like, this is perfect because
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 8: they look weightless and it's black and white. I was like, oh, good.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 8: And then he's like, what the fuck is this shit?
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 2: I was kind of with him on that. I was like,
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 2: artsy bullshit. Who shot this? Yoko? Come on. What is
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: this nonsense? So... But again, it is funny that they
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 2: didn't even make use of that. You'd think they would
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: have done some sort of trampoline maneuver to counter the
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 2: weightlessness since obviously he knows how to do that. It
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: would be hard to get moon dust to lay on
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: it right. But still, you'd think they would have somehow
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 2: worked in an effect where they could make use of
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 2: the trampoline thing that he's already doing.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 8: But they really didn't. I wanted to see flying jellyfish.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 8: I was hoping that would come through.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 2: You and that annoying band guy.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 8: For the rock opera.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 2: Which I know you're writing your own right now, don't lie.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 2: And there are jellyfish, aren't there?
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 8: I mean, conceptually.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 2: I'm just working on my jellyfish cover band. We rock.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 8: But yeah, at the end with the TV screen, I'm like,
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 8: you can't tell.
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, the footage... From the actual, in quotes, actual
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 2: version looks so bad, you're like, God knows what actually
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 2: originally was shot on a camera somewhere. It's like, no.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 2: So that is kind of one of my favorite parts.
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 4: I like the ambiguity.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, they really did it. Didn't they?
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 5: Didn't they?
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it's like the end. It's like the end. Or
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 8: is it? Dun, dun, dun.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 10: Question.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 8: Question.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: So yeah i did kind of like that it because
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 2: it was one of those i'm like okay is this
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 2: just like they do make it and we watch this
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 2: crazy adventure of something that didn't really mean anything but
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 2: then they kind of put that little extra question mark
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 2: on the end there of like well maybe even hell
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 2: again it throws one more little theory into the the
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 2: turbine there like one more thing that maybe they did
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: this and it no matter how stupid it looked choppy
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 2: video footage and Redubbed audio. You can make a lot
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 2: of stuff kind of work in the end result there.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 8: I could probably make some moon landing footage.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: I think that sounds like a project.
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 7: Mm-hmm.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 8: Be a music video.
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 2: YouTube channel. We're waiting to post.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 4: Some more videos.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 8: I'm going to become YouTube famous.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 2: Well, 14, 15, 19.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 8: And then I'm going to become the most intolerable person
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 8: on the planet because that's what happens.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 2: And then you'll get booked as a celebrity.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 2: I'm starting to see that at conventions now.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 4: YouTube personalities?
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Being booked in as celebrities because in this world
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: they are, I guess.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 8: But it's weird because I don't think that they have
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 8: real relationships outside of their YouTube personality because they make
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 8: everything in their life potentially will go on YouTube. I
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 8: was reading something today about this YouTube personality who likes
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 8: to do pranks. And so he constantly pranks his girlfriend
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 8: like he like did like a prank proposal and a
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 8: prank this prank that and she yeah i mean i
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 8: think she broke up with him because she's like because
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 8: he's a dick yeah but it's like they can't.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 2: Turn it off yeah kind of like how.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 8: Instagram celebrities too like they're always like having their boyfriends
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 8: follow them around and be like okay take a picture
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 8: of me here take.
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 2: This dreamy shot of me now put six filters on
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 2: it yeah i I'd call people out more for that,
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: but the only thing I do is on this show.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 8: I'm not necessarily a hater. I'm just like, you know,
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 8: it's just.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: But mine's just more on the sad level. It's not
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 2: like I make everything in my life this. It's the
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: only thing going on in my life is this. Welcome
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 2: to the show.
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 8: You can talk about things other than your podcast. And
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 8: you're not secretly recording me when we're talking about movies.
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 2: I think I've decided the other thing. It's not that
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 2: I can't. It's that I don't bother to talk about
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: anything else in the outside world. I'm like, I don't
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: care about regular world stuff most of the time. So
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 2: when people have like real world conversations, I've realized I'm
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 2: just like, I'll be over here talking about Daredevil or something. Again,
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 2: like I don't have anything useful to say because I
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 2: don't care. There's a lot of like.
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 8: And how do you feel about that?
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 2: I don't give a rat's ass. And again, I'm not
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: doing it for weird internet fame, obviously, because it doesn't work.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 2: But more than that, I'm just like this. I find
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: my people. And then I make them sit in front
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 2: of a microphone. So you guys are at least geek
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 2: enough that you want to hang out and talk about
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 2: dorky stuff that I want to talk about.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 8: On my day off, by the way.
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 2: I've realized in the real world, like I don't necessarily
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 2: connect with normal humans. I'm using quotes again. Like the
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: regular people.
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 8: The normies.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 2: It's really kind of hard to interact with them.
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 4: And it's.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: It's because they don't get my things, and I don't
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 2: care what they're talking about. It's probably politics right now,
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 2: and I really don't care. So much of it is stupid,
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 2: and I'll just say it's all stupid, and they want
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: to nitpick and argue about little things, and I'm like,
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 2: I don't care.
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 8: I think a lot of people just don't get your sarcasm,
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 8: and that's how they don't know how to talk to you.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 4: Good.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 8: It's like weeding them out. Good.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 2: Move along. So, yeah. We ventured into... Again, we're back
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 2: to the people sitting in front of their computers all day.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 2: He predicted the future.
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 8: I need to quit. I'm trying real hard to cut down.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 9: I'm not.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 8: Because I spend way too much time in front of
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 8: the computer between... Like, between my... I'm in grad school,
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 8: so I'm in front of a computer all the freaking time.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 8: And then when I'm not doing that, I'm like, all right,
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 8: I'll watch something on Netflix. Oh, excuse me. I'll watch
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 8: something on an online streaming service.
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 2: Until they start sending those checks.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 8: Or I'll just browse. It's too much. I need to
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 8: cut it down to, like, two hours a day max.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 2: I have a lot of people saying that sort of
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 2: stuff lately, and I'm like, yeah, but that's really all
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: I do.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 2: The only functional thing I do in the world, I
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 2: have to put out on the internet. So like, several
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 2: people I know that are just like, I don't want
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 2: anything to do with it. I don't even use it.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 2: I got rid of my computer. And I'm like, well,
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 2: I can't. This show goes out on the internet, you know?
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, maybe like download a podcast and then
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 8: do something else.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 2: What the hell are you saying? Don't think I'm going
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 2: to walk outside, okay? That sun, I will burst into flames.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm probably going to abandon all hope of unplugging
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 8: at all. I'm only like this right now because the
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 8: weather is really nice. Once it's the summertime, I'm going
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 8: to be like, screw this. Give me an AC.
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: See, I mean, again, I've just adapted into the best
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: version of that is, well, now I'm going to take
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 2: my laptop and go sit outside and edit the show. See, look,
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 2: I'm connecting the world. Outside, am I like being active?
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 8: You're a regular Bear Grylls out there.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 2: Butterflies and playing baseball? No, but I walked outside.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 4: And you're not even immersed. You have headphones on?
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 2: Obviously, I have headphones on.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 8: You got sunglasses, headphones.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 2: I put like blinders on, like horse blinders at this point.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 2: I don't have to look at people either.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 4: You just feel an ant crawling up your leg and
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 4: you're like.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 2: I don't want to be in the sun. I have
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: to have some sort of coverage. I mean, you know, I, Okay,
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 2: I just stay inside. But that's the best possible option.
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 2: Geeks can occasionally venture out and you make it out
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 2: of your house.
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 8: You make it all the way over to the comic
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 8: book store and then you make your way back.
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 2: I was thinking you take your laptop with you to
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 2: the coffee shop and then you sit outside or near
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 2: a window at least. I would like to sit near
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 2: the window. Then I can look outside, but I can
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 2: still be in the air conditioning. And then you put
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 2: your headphones on.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 8: It's crazy how much more productive I am at a
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 8: coffee shop.
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 8: Like leaving the house. It's probably because I have a
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 8: memory foam mattress. And you just go to sleep. And
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 8: it's impossible. It's like it's... It's the depression.
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 2: It remembers that you need to be there all the time.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 4: It's hugging you.
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 8: And it's hard to get out of the bed because
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 8: you can't get momentum because there's no springs.
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 2: It's a suction noise.
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 8: Don't leave. It'll be like the next Stephen King horror novel.
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 2: Memory foam.
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 5: Memory foam.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 2: Coming this fall. We spiraled off in several directions.
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 4: We ended on evil memory foam mattresses.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 2: But, again, I think that probably says enough about this movie.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 2: It's not bad.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 8: It's not bad. I mean, I'm not going to remember
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 8: a lot of details about it like a week from now.
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 8: I'm just going to remember that it was entertaining and
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 8: fun and.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 8: Kind of badass, but not necessarily badass enough for me
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 8: to ever watch it again.
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much. That's the thing. By the end, I
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 2: was like, it's not bad at all. It's pretty well done, actually.
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 2: It's relatively memorable as an overall story, but is it
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 2: something that you're going to want to like own and
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 2: constantly revisit?
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 8: It's like a beach movie.
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 2: It's like, or it's like, it is like a, you
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 2: could get a group of people together and be like, oh,
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 2: this is fun. And it's entertaining enough that everybody would
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 2: kind of pay attention. And then everybody would forget it
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 2: two weeks later, except the geeks that were like, remember
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 2: that one about the moon? And then they faked it.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 2: And like, so again, I think it kind of works
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 2: on that level.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 8: I think it's totally worth a watch. Yeah. Especially on
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 8: a lazy day. You don't know what else to watch.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 8: You know that you're going to get middle-of-the-road entertaining with
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 8: this movie. You don't have to worry about if it's
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 8: going to be a hit or a miss.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's fun either way.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 7: And blood.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 2: And lots of blood. And I like the random cute girl.
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 2: She's just there.
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 8: She's just nice.
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 2: She's sort of the right hand girl to the director,
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 2: but not really. Like she never really does anything functional.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 8: And there's titties.
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 2: There are.
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 8: Not her. Many titties.
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 2: But there's a lot of ass shots of her.
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 8: I thought there were titties. I thought we saw her
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 8: titties at one point.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 2: Maybe I wasn't paying attention, which does not sound like
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 2: me in that type of.
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 8: Well, there are lots of other titties.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 2: There are a lot of other random topless girls, though,
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 2: at the director's house.
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 4: Brian never misses a titty.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 2: I'm cataloging. I mean, that's, yeah. I predate Mr.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 8: Skin.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 2: The Bare Facts Video Guide. That was my early version. Anyway,
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 2: but yeah, I do like the fact that she's just
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 2: always kind of hanging around. To me, it's like she
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 2: never seems like she's actually hooked up with the director.
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 2: She's just always around him. And every time you see her,
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 2: she seems super into Ron Perlman. Yeah. And he's oblivious.
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 2: He's always just like being angry. And she's always got
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 2: this look like, oh, yeah, any minute now.
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 2: I'm going to hit some of that.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 8: I mean, when she's eating that popsicle, suggestively, oh, he
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 8: looks over.
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 2: That's the only time he's, and again, it's because it's
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 2: very blatant. There's no subtlety going on here. But other
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 2: than that, several times before that, I'm looking at her going,
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 2: she's totally into that dude, and he is not paying
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 2: attention at all because he's got PSD.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 8: But then he does drugs.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 2: And he realizes, hey, I just need this chick, man.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 4: His heart grows three sizes.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 8: Boop.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 2: But that was that i was saying that the turn
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 2: it all around at the end there and who's the
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 2: only other person that goes with them on their weird
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 2: road trip to escape from everyone that's gonna kill them i.
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 8: Guess yeah in madrid yeah.
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: But yeah they yeah it's just our main three characters
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 2: and the random girl that i don't even know her
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 2: name that's what i thought was funny like she never
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 2: really becomes a full-on character but like she just sort
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 2: of tags along at the end that was fun I
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 2: did the Kubrick guys pretty damn good. I was like,
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 2: he's kind of familiar, but he's... You.
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 8: Said he's like a Tumblr model or something?
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 2: No, he's like a star in Britain. He's on one
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 2: of those shows. He's Robert Sheehan. Robert Sheehan. Actually, last
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: year we had Grin Wells on who was the director
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 2: of The movie that he's like, it's The Road Within,
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 2: which is like a phenomenal version of him. Like this
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 2: one is pretty minor acting. He just kind of has
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 2: to be stoned most of the time. But yeah, watch
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 2: him in The Road Within. Like he is a kid
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 2: with Tourette's and he doesn't have Tourette's. He's an actor
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 2: and he pulls it off like you would not believe.
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 2: It's a phenomenal undertaking that he like actually went and
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 2: studied with this kid that had it and like picked
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 2: up the ticks and like does it in this weird
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 2: way that's very legit. Cool. So he's, yeah, he's an impressive,
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 2: impressive actor that, yeah, that's another one for that offshoot movie.
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 8: Like Leo and OCD in The Aviator. I think he
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 8: did a pretty convincing OCD.
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 4: I think so. Come in with the milk.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 2: Now we're just picking random people with mental disorders.
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 8: It just reminded me because for a second I was like, wait, wait, wait,
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 8: is that what he had? No, okay.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 2: But yeah, it was one of those I was like,
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 2: he looks familiar, but I think it was the hair
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 2: and the beard was throwing it off. Although he does
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 2: kind of have that hair all the time.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 8: He kind of looked like Walking Phoenix, like from.
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, when he was a rapper.
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 8: Yeah, when he was a rapper. That's what he reminded
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 8: me of. When he was wearing the sunglasses.
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I could see that. That's not too far off.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 2: But yeah, that whole little core cast, that guy, and
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 2: should I actually address Ron Weasley by his real name?
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 2: Is it insulting?
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 4: Rupert Grint.
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 2: I continually call him Ron Weasley. i mean it's still
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 2: i kind of do that with all of them i
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 2: i still call hermione hermione yeah and i wasn't even
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 2: like in love with those movies i just kind of
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 2: watched most of them in the last two or three
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 2: years like i just didn't i got out of the
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 2: loop and missed a bunch of i saw one or
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 2: two so it's funny that i still like even when
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 2: i had not seen almost all of the movies hadn't
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 2: read any of the books would refer to Harry Potter
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 2: and Hermione. Again, they grew up in that role, so
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 2: I guess it's not that crazy.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 8: I think Ron Weasley was pretty Ron Weasley in this movie, though.
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 2: Kind of, but I do feel like he was at
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 2: least modernized enough. I'm like, okay, I can see him
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 2: getting other jobs. He can do another character. It's still
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 2: on the edge. He's not being a massively different person,
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 2: but You can kind of see him edging his way
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 2: into regular roles, which the other two have totally broken out.
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 2: You can watch them, and they're both turning in these
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: amazing performances now. So it'll be kind of cool if
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 2: he can break out of that and do other things,
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: and jackasses will stop calling him Ron Weasley.
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 8: But he took all that money from Harry Potter, and
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 8: he bought an ice cream truck or something, and he
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 8: drives the ice cream truck around.
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 2: It's better than getting an addiction problem like some do.
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 2: He's overcome that now.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 8: Unless it's an addiction to ice cream.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 2: Well, that might be it. Maybe he's addicted to rum
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 2: raisin or some shit. You gotta watch that stuff, man.
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 2: They've all turned their lives around and have become productive
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 2: adult stars now. Childhood celebrity dumb didn't kill them. More
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 2: power to them. Power through Ron Weasley.
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 4: Rupert Grint.
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 10: If you say so.
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 4: No, he's my friend. That's what I call him. I
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 4: call him Rupert Roop.
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 2: What's up, Roop?
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 5: What was it, Roop?
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 2: I did look up the director, and again, it's pretty
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 2: well shot, but this is his first feature. I had
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 2: seen the only other thing it lists for him is
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 2: a short, and then I went, isn't that a commercial?
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 2: It is a commercial. Have you seen the Wacky Races
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 2: that is like a live action version? Because as soon
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 2: as I brought it up, I was like, oh yeah,
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 2: I've seen this. I just watched it like a year
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 2: or so ago, and it's like amazingly well done. It's
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 2: like the old animated Hanna-Barbera wacky races, but they've cast
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 2: live people and made them all up to look like
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 2: these weird, horribly disfigured characters sometimes. And then they shoot
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 2: it as like it's a car company. And it's just
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 2: their car driving around and they're constantly being attacked and
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: driven past by all these people from wacky races. And
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 2: if you haven't seen it, yeah, go look it up.
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 2: All right. wacky races directed i thought it was.
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 8: Gonna be like an oxy clean commercial or something.
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 2: No no it's for uh pogo it's a crazy foreign
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 2: car that i'm assuming we don't have many of in
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 2: this country but but yeah it's it's really surprisingly stylish
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 2: and well done for a for a commercial so yeah
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 2: if nothing else go seek that out on the youtube.
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 8: Cool Not a bad directorial debut.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's impressive. And again, most of this looks really good.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 2: So he's got promise. I'd like to see where he
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 2: ends up after this.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 2: Anything else to pass along about this wonderful feature? I
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 2: think much like this show, teamwork is all about. That
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 2: was kind of my favorite in their little wrap up
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 2: at the end there of like, it wasn't impressive that
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 2: they did this. And then, you know, wasn't it brave?
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 2: And he's like, it took teamwork. And I'm like, you know,
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: even if you're talking about the real mission to the
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 2: moon or the crazy cover up, it probably took a
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 2: lot of teamwork to make it come into full.
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 4: Takes buddies.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 2: You need help to put this kind of nonsense together.
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 8: Teamwork and.
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 2: Podcasting.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 8: What's that like when the CIA like compartmentalizes who gets
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 8: to know what?
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 4: Oh, it's just compartmentalization. It's just a.
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 8: Okay.
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 8: It's like teamwork plus compartmentalization. So no one thinks too
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 8: much into what they're doing.
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 4: Need to know basis. Brian, you can bring these lights
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 4: in this room, but you need to leave before we
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 4: put in the fake moon sand.
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 2: See, that's compartmentalization.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 4: Oh, no, no. I told you too much already.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 2: I was going to say, then you tie up the
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 2: loose ends. Put the architects in the pyramid.
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 8: This microphone will explode in 30 seconds.
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 2: That's how we round out every episode. That's why I
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 2: keep getting new people on the show every week. It's
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 2: not because they're all slackers. It's because I keep killing them.
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 8: We're actually the third clone, Nick and Jacqueline team.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 2: I've just gone full on Venture Brothers with this. It's
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 2: really hard to pin people down, so I just keep
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 2: making new ones. Once they get out of control, I
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 2: take care of them.
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 8: Oh, that just reminded me of Moon. Oh, I just
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 8: got sad because we were just talking about moon landings
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 8: and then you were like clones and kill them off.
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 8: And I was like, oh no.
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 5: Spoiler alert.
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 8: Spoiler alert. Moon is a really sad movie.
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 2: Moon's a really good movie.
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 8: It's a really good movie.
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 2: Another great director, Duncan. Rest in peace, dad. But yeah,
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 2: he's in his own right, a very cool director. I
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 2: need to see. He did something else after that, but
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 2: I need to see what else he's doing. All right.
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 2: So that's how we do this.
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 4: Teamwork. Teamwork.
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 2: Whether faking the moon landing or putting together a podcast.
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 2: So thank you two for joining in this week.
