Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, Welcome to the Large or Drunk Collider podcast,
0:13
Speaker 1: the podcast that's all about the eg things happening in
0:16
Speaker 1: the world today and how very excited we are about them.
0:19
Speaker 1: I'm aerial casting and with me as always is Jonathan Strickland.
0:25
Speaker 1: Oh bother, Yeah certainly so. Uh. We're bringing you this
0:33
Speaker 1: episode uh through great trials and tribulations, including tech issues
0:40
Speaker 1: again that I think are different from the tech issues
0:44
Speaker 1: we had last week. So I look forward to this
0:46
Speaker 1: series now becoming just a different sequence of tech problems
0:50
Speaker 1: from episode episode every every episode is an adventure. Yeah,
0:56
Speaker 1: if it if it happens again next time, I might
0:59
Speaker 1: have us use the old method that we used to
1:02
Speaker 1: use back in the original l n C days, and
1:08
Speaker 1: we won't use the online um uh studio that we
1:12
Speaker 1: have been using because maybe that would solve some of
1:16
Speaker 1: these problems. I don't know. What I do know is
1:19
Speaker 1: we have a bunch of different, very different news items
1:23
Speaker 1: to cover this week. Yeah. The first of which is
1:26
Speaker 1: Saturday is a National Cinema Day, So the day after
1:30
Speaker 1: this episode comes out, if you're listening to it in
1:32
Speaker 1: a timely manner where if you're comfortable going to theaters,
1:37
Speaker 1: many theaters are selling movie tickets for three dollars a
1:41
Speaker 1: pop all day. Yeah. Uh. And you might wonder why
1:46
Speaker 1: would movie theaters do such a thing, And it's largely
1:49
Speaker 1: because obviously the industry has had a lot of problems,
1:55
Speaker 1: challenges you could say, post pandemic, which I mean are
2:00
Speaker 1: not really post pandemic, but pandemic related, and that there's
2:05
Speaker 1: still trying to figure out ways to get more people
2:08
Speaker 1: into theaters, to get the movie going culture back into
2:12
Speaker 1: full swing. And that's hard, largely because there's been kind
2:16
Speaker 1: of a lack of big ticket cinema films coming out
2:22
Speaker 1: this year. I think that's largely due to the gap
2:26
Speaker 1: that was created because of the pandemic, and that it's
2:29
Speaker 1: just going to take some time to get back into
2:32
Speaker 1: that rhythm. Because the pandemic, you know, you either had
2:36
Speaker 1: productions that were almost finished and then they hurriedly finished
2:40
Speaker 1: up as best they could, or you had a whole
2:42
Speaker 1: bunch that never really got started until things calmed down,
2:46
Speaker 1: and that's why we've got this lull. Yeah. It's also
2:49
Speaker 1: interesting because I realized not the entire world is at
2:53
Speaker 1: Dragon Con, but at least in Atlanta. I don't know
2:55
Speaker 1: how much traction it's going to get this weekend. Yeah.
3:00
Speaker 1: Here in Atlanta, we are in dragon Con weekend. Maybe
3:04
Speaker 1: one day Ariel and I will attend dragon Con in
3:07
Speaker 1: our our our roles as podcasters, but it will not
3:11
Speaker 1: be this year. And dragon Con, of course, is a
3:14
Speaker 1: big science fiction, fantasy, horror, comic, book, etcetera convention where
3:21
Speaker 1: I mean, it's really true that there are more people
3:24
Speaker 1: in costume than not in costume when you're walking around,
3:28
Speaker 1: and it's an amazing experience, but it does mean that
3:31
Speaker 1: they are otherwise occupied and will not be taking time
3:35
Speaker 1: out of their busy con schedule of changing from costume
3:39
Speaker 1: twenty three into costume twenty four so that they can
3:42
Speaker 1: jump out and watch a quick flick. Yeah. But that
3:45
Speaker 1: being said, if you aren't a dragon Con and you
3:49
Speaker 1: want to go see a cheap movie, it's a really
3:50
Speaker 1: good day to do it. I know a couple of
3:52
Speaker 1: the movies that are going out our Jaws three D
3:54
Speaker 1: and Spider Man No Way Home are both going back
3:57
Speaker 1: to the theaters, So some good geeky options there. Yeah. Yeah,
4:02
Speaker 1: so it might not be that no, there's a brand
4:05
Speaker 1: new thriller out there that you have to see, but
4:09
Speaker 1: there could be some interesting options. I really do think
4:12
Speaker 1: that it's fun when theaters bring back old films, especially
4:16
Speaker 1: ones that maybe you're a fan of the film, but
4:18
Speaker 1: you never had the opportunity to actually get the theatrical
4:21
Speaker 1: experience of seeing it. I love when those kind of
4:24
Speaker 1: things come back around. That's why I love things like
4:26
Speaker 1: midnight movies and stuff like that, where you get that chance,
4:30
Speaker 1: because it really does add something special to the experience.
4:33
Speaker 1: As much as as I growse about the theatrical experience
4:37
Speaker 1: and the fact that I haven't been to a movie
4:39
Speaker 1: theater since since the pandemic um, I still actually do
4:44
Speaker 1: like it when when it's one of those where everybody
4:48
Speaker 1: is really into the movie that you're gonna go see. Uh.
4:53
Speaker 1: Speaking of movies, this is this is a story that
4:57
Speaker 1: just made me absolutely don't I did on multiple levels.
5:02
Speaker 1: There is a movie in the works. It's the directorial
5:06
Speaker 1: debut of Robin Williams's daughter Zelda called Lisa Frankenstein, which
5:13
Speaker 1: I will admit when I first read the title, I
5:16
Speaker 1: thought it said Lisa frank and I'm like, why are
5:18
Speaker 1: we getting a Lisa frank movie. You can listen all
5:21
Speaker 1: about Lisa frank on one of our old business on
5:24
Speaker 1: the Brink episodes. It's a crazy story, so maybe it
5:27
Speaker 1: would make you might fall into a trap or keeper
5:32
Speaker 1: if you listen to that episode. Uh yeah, the the
5:36
Speaker 1: I was reading over the story and we'll link to
5:40
Speaker 1: the article which is out of Collider and Collider buries
5:45
Speaker 1: the lead a little bit in that the plot synopsis
5:49
Speaker 1: falls fairly low in the article. So as I'm reading,
5:52
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, so, what is Lisa Frankenstein. Is it some
5:57
Speaker 1: sort of alternative tape on the Frankenstein story that maybe
6:03
Speaker 1: instead of Victor Frankenstein we have Lisa Frankenstein. But it
6:07
Speaker 1: gets so much weirder than that in a way that
6:11
Speaker 1: made me so happy. Ariel, why don't you, why don't
6:13
Speaker 1: you give your best take on what Lisa Frankenstein vaguely
6:18
Speaker 1: is about. Okay, so it's set in the late eighties
6:24
Speaker 1: and a high school student re animates a Victorian corps
6:30
Speaker 1: who also happens to be hot. I think it's a
6:34
Speaker 1: hot guy because it's Cole Sprouse is involved with this
6:39
Speaker 1: yeah movie as well. Uh when he falls into a
6:43
Speaker 1: tanning bed, Yeah, so the tanning the tanning bed becomes
6:48
Speaker 1: like the instrument of resurrection somehow One wonders how you
6:54
Speaker 1: get a corpse in a tanning bed, But yeah, it's
6:59
Speaker 1: it's this the thing where she decides that now this,
7:03
Speaker 1: according to the synopsis, it's probably more complicated than this,
7:06
Speaker 1: but that she decides that this corpse, reanimated corps, is
7:11
Speaker 1: far more interesting, charming, and attractive than the fellows she's
7:17
Speaker 1: encountering in modern day, and that maybe this is kind of,
7:20
Speaker 1: you know, making Mr Wright with the the the the
7:26
Speaker 1: Frankenstein's Monster character. And I was telling Ariel before we
7:31
Speaker 1: started recording, before I realized I'm an idiot and you
7:34
Speaker 1: should always save the stuff for when you're on Mike,
7:37
Speaker 1: that it actually feels like that kind of plot, feels
7:40
Speaker 1: like the kind of weird stuff we were getting in
7:43
Speaker 1: the nineteen eighties when you had films like like teen,
7:46
Speaker 1: which where they were all these very high concept, bizarre
7:53
Speaker 1: teen romance comedies, and this one just feels like it
7:57
Speaker 1: could have been made in nineteen eight mine. And also
8:00
Speaker 1: it's fun that it's a period piece. You say it's
8:03
Speaker 1: a period piece because it's eight nine, that it hurts
8:06
Speaker 1: my soul a little bit, Jonathan, I realize you're right,
8:10
Speaker 1: but it's yeah, when it's when it's more than thirty
8:14
Speaker 1: years ago, I'm aware. Yeah, so I like it on
8:20
Speaker 1: the meta level of its said at a time when
8:23
Speaker 1: this sort of story would have come out. I like
8:26
Speaker 1: the concept just because I like universal monster movies like Frankenstein,
8:31
Speaker 1: So maybe this will vaguely fall into that bucket and
8:36
Speaker 1: give them a revitalization. And also Collider points us out.
8:43
Speaker 1: But the writer is Diablo Cody, who worked on both
8:46
Speaker 1: Jennifer's Body, which I haven't seen but I've heard is
8:49
Speaker 1: a good horror movie, and also on Juno. So if
8:55
Speaker 1: you're going for horror comedy, commodore, no already that's not
9:05
Speaker 1: any better. No, both both of those are bad choices. Yes,
9:10
Speaker 1: it's a good writer for it. Yeah, I I I
9:15
Speaker 1: don't know when the final product is made, if it's
9:17
Speaker 1: going to come across as sort of an actual thing
9:21
Speaker 1: of the time now, Like, is it going to feel
9:25
Speaker 1: like tuned to modern tastes or is it going to
9:28
Speaker 1: feel kind of kitchy and retro and feel like it
9:33
Speaker 1: came from the eighties, hopefully minus all the problematic stuff
9:38
Speaker 1: that was common in eighties comedies. Um, you know, I
9:42
Speaker 1: won't go into all of that, but there's you could
9:44
Speaker 1: easily write an entire book about the terrible tropes that
9:49
Speaker 1: were frequently used in comedies for the purposes of a
9:52
Speaker 1: joke that you know, in reflection, we're really perpetuating awful
9:58
Speaker 1: stereotypes and and is ums that were harmful to others. Um.
10:04
Speaker 1: I don't think we're going to get that in this movie.
10:06
Speaker 1: But if totally it feels like it came from the eighties,
10:09
Speaker 1: I could be totally down for that. I just don't
10:12
Speaker 1: I don't want to expect that because I'm not certain
10:16
Speaker 1: that that's what's going to appeal to a modern audience.
10:18
Speaker 1: So I should be ready for this to have a
10:20
Speaker 1: totally different tone from that. It's just that's that's where
10:23
Speaker 1: my mind goes when I think about the setting and
10:26
Speaker 1: the concept. Yeah, I'm going to tentatively joyfully anticipate the
10:32
Speaker 1: trailer we get for this. I know that, Um, some
10:37
Speaker 1: of the actors like they're already filming, so that's fun. Uh.
10:45
Speaker 1: We actually have a bunch of trailers we do want
10:47
Speaker 1: to talk about, but before we do, UH to circle
10:51
Speaker 1: back to HBO Max yet again. For the third weekend Row.
10:56
Speaker 1: We got good news that Harley Quinn the Cartoon is
11:00
Speaker 1: being renewed for season four, which I'm sure is a
11:03
Speaker 1: huge sigh of relief to everybody who was worried about
11:06
Speaker 1: the future of d C on HBO Max after the
11:12
Speaker 1: Backgirl cancelation, and especially especially since the animation department in
11:17
Speaker 1: particular got hit really hard across multiple titles, and some
11:22
Speaker 1: some projects that were planned have since been scrapped. So
11:26
Speaker 1: to hear that Harley Quinn escape the chopping block and
11:29
Speaker 1: is getting another season is big news, I agree, and
11:33
Speaker 1: good news. And I don't think people have to be
11:37
Speaker 1: worried about it getting chopped still because the current season
11:40
Speaker 1: isn't over yet, so it's not something that they've started
11:44
Speaker 1: working on and are just like, well, we've got it,
11:46
Speaker 1: so let's release it right right. Yeah? This is This
11:51
Speaker 1: is where like giving everyone who's working on that project,
11:55
Speaker 1: despite well not the showrunners because those are changing, but
11:59
Speaker 1: the everyone who else who's reading on that project the
12:02
Speaker 1: word that yes, this is coming back, which is great.
12:05
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've been keeping up with Harley
12:08
Speaker 1: Quinn Aerial, but the most recent episode as of the
12:11
Speaker 1: time of this recording, is perhaps the most genius thing
12:17
Speaker 1: I have ever seen in a Batman story. So I
12:21
Speaker 1: have been keeping up, but I did not watch it
12:23
Speaker 1: last night. Last yesterday was Thursday was crazy busy for
12:30
Speaker 1: multiple reasons. Um, but I've seen the previous two episodes,
12:36
Speaker 1: two episodes before last night. We're a bit much for me.
12:43
Speaker 1: But I think if I'm thinking of the right episode,
12:45
Speaker 1: the Court of Owls episode, the one, the one that was,
12:50
Speaker 1: the one that was last night, the Batman Begins Forever
12:55
Speaker 1: was it references multiple bat and stories from multiple sources,
13:03
Speaker 1: so like it's it's fun and that there's a nod
13:08
Speaker 1: two the Tim Burton era stuff. There was a nod
13:11
Speaker 1: to that, to the Adam West era stuff. There's a
13:15
Speaker 1: nod to the Christopher Nolan era stuff. Um, there's a
13:19
Speaker 1: nod to Batman the animated series stuff. And it's all
13:23
Speaker 1: done in a very funny way while also dealing with
13:28
Speaker 1: obviously like like Bruce Wayne's uh defining childhood trauma. And yeah,
13:36
Speaker 1: it was. As I was watching it, I was also
13:39
Speaker 1: geeking out every single time Danny Elfman's Batman score was
13:44
Speaker 1: working its way into the background music, I was like,
13:47
Speaker 1: this is this is phenomenal. Between that and last night's
13:51
Speaker 1: She Hulk, I had a really good time yesterday. I'm
13:55
Speaker 1: i am glad to hear it. I look forward to
13:56
Speaker 1: watching both last night's she Hulk and last night's Harley
14:00
Speaker 1: in Shehawkye watch on Monday nights with a friend who
14:05
Speaker 1: is virtuals so maybe we'll catch up. But I'm a
14:09
Speaker 1: little bit behind on it, but I'm still enjoying it. Yeah.
14:14
Speaker 1: Something else I greatly enjoyed was the new trailer for
14:18
Speaker 1: Weird the Al Yankovic Story. Yes, it's absolutely what it
14:24
Speaker 1: needs to be, which is that it is a complete
14:29
Speaker 1: send up of the rock and roll biopic and h
14:34
Speaker 1: is absolutely not the true story of Weird Al yankovics
14:39
Speaker 1: rise to his place in fame, which is an interesting
14:43
Speaker 1: and unique place. Really, Weird all occupies a unique spot
14:48
Speaker 1: in fame in that this is someone who can fade
14:51
Speaker 1: from awareness for years, come back with a well timed
14:57
Speaker 1: parody or original, and then dominate geeky conversation, and then
15:03
Speaker 1: do it again. And like, the thing that I always
15:06
Speaker 1: found amazing was that if you went to a Weird
15:09
Speaker 1: Al Yankovic show, which, by the way, those are phenomenal.
15:13
Speaker 1: Everyone should try and go to see a Weird Al
15:15
Speaker 1: Yankovic show, whether it's his full stage production or one
15:18
Speaker 1: of his more scaled down tours. It's always amazing. Right
15:21
Speaker 1: now his tour is unpopular songs that are not covers
15:24
Speaker 1: in very small yes, but I I love I love
15:28
Speaker 1: his originals, so to me like that, like, actually, as
15:31
Speaker 1: I get older, I love his originals more than the
15:34
Speaker 1: parodies because the parodies are often anchored in the time
15:39
Speaker 1: period where they came out, where you know, sometimes the
15:42
Speaker 1: jokes don't work anymore. Often they're making references to things
15:46
Speaker 1: that you know are dated. So unless you're you might
15:50
Speaker 1: be like, oh, yeah, I remember when that was a thing.
15:53
Speaker 1: But his his originals tend to be a little more timeless,
15:58
Speaker 1: depending upon which one it is. But any way, his
16:01
Speaker 1: shows are really entertaining. But what's also amazing is seeing
16:04
Speaker 1: the the demographics of the audience because you can see
16:08
Speaker 1: like kids, like people who just got into Weird Owl
16:11
Speaker 1: because they're geeky and they think the music is funny,
16:14
Speaker 1: all the way to people my age or older who
16:16
Speaker 1: have been listening to him since his first album, and uh,
16:19
Speaker 1: it's just it's it's rare to encounter any kind of
16:24
Speaker 1: artist whose work has that sort of appeal across such
16:29
Speaker 1: a huge age range. So but the but the but
16:33
Speaker 1: the trailer doesn't give us that weird owl. The trailer
16:37
Speaker 1: gives us like a motley cruise style weird owl, which
16:41
Speaker 1: is hilarious to me because, oh, I don't know the man,
16:46
Speaker 1: but everything I know about him is that he's a
16:49
Speaker 1: It seems like he is a genuinely wholesome, nice person,
16:54
Speaker 1: and so this rock and roll fixing fictionalization is hilarious,
16:58
Speaker 1: especially since weird Al is in the movie not just
17:01
Speaker 1: as the singing voice but as a character, so yes, yeah,
17:05
Speaker 1: he looks like he's playing like a music label executive
17:09
Speaker 1: in in the trailer, and Rain Wilson is playing Dr Demento,
17:14
Speaker 1: and Dr Demento is coming across as sort of a
17:17
Speaker 1: kind of a sleazy manager slash producer type, which again
17:22
Speaker 1: is so nond under Demento. Is that that the more
17:27
Speaker 1: you know about weird Al and the circle around weird Al,
17:33
Speaker 1: the funnier this trailer is because you see through all
17:37
Speaker 1: the ridiculousness and it just adds another layer of humor.
17:40
Speaker 1: Not that I think you need that to find this funny,
17:43
Speaker 1: but it just adds another layer to it. I agree.
17:47
Speaker 1: We also get to see our first look, like our
17:49
Speaker 1: first real look of Evan Rachel Wood as Madonna, and
17:52
Speaker 1: she's brilliant. I'd watched her briefly, I think on Jimmy
17:57
Speaker 1: Fallon when she was doing musical impressions, because she's in
17:59
Speaker 1: a band and she does musical impressions really well. She
18:03
Speaker 1: does an amazing Janis Joplin um. So to get to
18:06
Speaker 1: see her work those chops, she's I think she's brilliant
18:09
Speaker 1: as a fictionalization of Madonna. Yeah, and yeah, And I
18:15
Speaker 1: don't wanna ruin anyone's experience from watching just the trailer.
18:19
Speaker 1: You should. You should definitely watch it if you haven't
18:21
Speaker 1: seen it already, and particularly watch her performance and and
18:26
Speaker 1: her reaction shots because they are great. And yeah, this
18:31
Speaker 1: is I can't imagine how much fun Daniel Radcliffe must
18:34
Speaker 1: have had making this movie, because it looks inspired and
18:39
Speaker 1: insane and ridiculous, and and he's from everything in the trailer.
18:45
Speaker 1: He's treating it completely straight, like he's treating it like
18:49
Speaker 1: this is the most serious thing, even as he's doing
18:52
Speaker 1: ridiculous stuff. And that's what sells it. Well. Listen, It's
18:55
Speaker 1: often said that the way to sell comedy is to
18:58
Speaker 1: not try to be funny, but really believe in the
19:01
Speaker 1: comedic situation that you are doing yeah, and he's doing
19:05
Speaker 1: it like he's his commitment is evident on screen. Yeah.
19:10
Speaker 1: Speaking of trippy and bizarre, a trailer popped for a
19:15
Speaker 1: movie called Rainbow that's coming out on Netflix, and I'm
19:18
Speaker 1: hit or miss on Netflix movies, but this one actually
19:20
Speaker 1: looks pretty interesting. It's a Spanish language Wizard of Oz
19:25
Speaker 1: inspired horror mystery. It's yeah, it's hard to put labels
19:32
Speaker 1: on it other than the fact that clearly Wizard of
19:34
Speaker 1: Oz is an influence. But it's not like, at least
19:38
Speaker 1: according to the trailer that I saw, or at least
19:41
Speaker 1: my impression is, it's not like a a retelling of
19:45
Speaker 1: the Wizard of Oz, at least not not explicitly, not overtly,
19:51
Speaker 1: but rather that Wizard of Oz has influences on the film,
19:54
Speaker 1: and it does look like it's kind of uh, like
19:58
Speaker 1: like a trippy movie, like literally, like characters are tripping
20:02
Speaker 1: on psychedelic substances, and that in part is what is
20:06
Speaker 1: shaping the film. Like we're again, my impression is the
20:11
Speaker 1: reason why the film looks the way it does in
20:13
Speaker 1: certain sequences is it's meant to impart to us what
20:18
Speaker 1: the characters are experiencing as they are being affected by
20:22
Speaker 1: these psychedelic substances. So it is also Spanish language. It's subtitled,
20:29
Speaker 1: so it's uh. It's one of those that caught my
20:32
Speaker 1: eye immediately because it has a very specific and particular
20:37
Speaker 1: kind of visual look to it, and it's not it's
20:41
Speaker 1: not the sort of thing I typically watch, but I
20:43
Speaker 1: found it intriguing. I I agree, I also found it intriguing. Um.
20:49
Speaker 1: But then again, and like the trippy fits for me,
20:51
Speaker 1: because the Wizard of Oz is trippy to me anyhow. Yeah,
20:55
Speaker 1: that's true. Yeah, No, it's it's so funny because it's
20:57
Speaker 1: such a classic and it's been around our entire your lives.
21:01
Speaker 1: And I don't know how many times you've seen the
21:04
Speaker 1: you know, Julie Garland Wizard of Oz. I've seen it
21:07
Speaker 1: probably a few dozen times. Yeah, and you you start
21:11
Speaker 1: to forget the trippy elements. Same sort of thing for me,
21:15
Speaker 1: for Alice in Wonderland, Like I've heard the story so
21:18
Speaker 1: many times that I start to forget that this is
21:21
Speaker 1: trippy stuff, like it is wild. And you can see
21:25
Speaker 1: why both of those stories were attractive to people who
21:29
Speaker 1: were in the psychedelia circles, right, you can see because
21:33
Speaker 1: it's like like, these these stories even though they're meant
21:36
Speaker 1: for children, and it's kind of that childlike imaginative quality
21:40
Speaker 1: that fuels them. It's also akin to the druggie trippy
21:47
Speaker 1: side of things. So yeah, interesting. I hope to watch it.
21:54
Speaker 1: I have not watched the lot. I'm so behind on
21:58
Speaker 1: all Netflix stuff. I almost never booted up anymore. I
22:03
Speaker 1: am not as far behind on Netflix stuff, but I
22:07
Speaker 1: did recently go this is weird and I've never heard
22:10
Speaker 1: of it, and watched it and regretted it. I will
22:13
Speaker 1: not name those titles, partially because I can't remember them.
22:16
Speaker 1: If you ever need to remember that The Wizard of
22:19
Speaker 1: Oz is trippy. Just watched the old Return to Oz movie.
22:22
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm going to leave that there. Hey you
22:26
Speaker 1: know what, those those wheelies, man, those wheelies. Speaking of
22:34
Speaker 1: bizarre and this trailer did not land for me? Did
22:39
Speaker 1: but maybe it landed for Jonathan because he's a bizarre,
22:43
Speaker 1: bizarre person. Uh. Is the trailer for Winnie the Pooh,
22:48
Speaker 1: Blood and Honey? What the heck? Yeah? When when I
22:53
Speaker 1: first saw this trailer, my first reaction was, this cannot
22:58
Speaker 1: be a real movie. This trailer has to be the
23:01
Speaker 1: full extent of what this is. Like, this is obviously
23:04
Speaker 1: someone's project where they made a trailer for a fictional
23:09
Speaker 1: Winnie the Pooh themed horror movie slasher movie, not just
23:13
Speaker 1: a horror movie, a slasher film. Uh, and that that's
23:18
Speaker 1: that's all there is. It's just this trailer. Kind of
23:20
Speaker 1: like how in the past we've seen like students who
23:24
Speaker 1: have made trailers for non existing films in order to
23:27
Speaker 1: be kind of like part of their real to demonstrate
23:30
Speaker 1: their abilities for visual effects and directing and cinematography and
23:34
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. And I thought, that's what
23:37
Speaker 1: this has to be. There's no way someone made a
23:40
Speaker 1: movie where they took the characters of Winnie the Pooh
23:44
Speaker 1: and Christopher Robin, aged Christopher Robin up and then had
23:49
Speaker 1: the various Winnie the Pooh characters become feral, violent, homicidal killers,
23:57
Speaker 1: possibly because Christopher Robin quote unquot abandoned them. And yet
24:02
Speaker 1: here we are. Yeah, it's so bizarre. How can they
24:06
Speaker 1: even do this, Jonathan, Because they at least the Winnie
24:10
Speaker 1: the Pooh character looks like the character from like the
24:12
Speaker 1: Disney cartoon. Well that is a problem. But the actual
24:19
Speaker 1: stories of way of the poo have passed into public domain,
24:21
Speaker 1: meaning the copyright has lapsed. And once a copyright lapses
24:25
Speaker 1: and something is in public domain, then anyone can make copies,
24:29
Speaker 1: they can sell it, they can change it, you can
24:32
Speaker 1: do whatever. Once something is in public domain, it just
24:35
Speaker 1: takes a very very long time. It's like ninety years
24:39
Speaker 1: the author's life plus ninety years, or if it's a
24:42
Speaker 1: corporate owned thing, it's slightly different. But um, it's you
24:46
Speaker 1: have to get past this very long period before something
24:49
Speaker 1: is in public domain. Once it is, it's it's free
24:52
Speaker 1: game for everybody. And some stuff is in public domain
24:56
Speaker 1: not because it's that old, but because people failed to
25:00
Speaker 1: file copyrights properly. So for example, George Romero's Night of
25:04
Speaker 1: the Living Dead, the original Night of the Living Dead
25:06
Speaker 1: black and white film, is in public domain because it
25:09
Speaker 1: was they failed to file properly. That means that means
25:14
Speaker 1: anyone can take a print of Ni the Living Dead
25:17
Speaker 1: and and make digital copies or you know, c d
25:21
Speaker 1: s or whatever and sell them and it's fine because
25:25
Speaker 1: it's public domain. So winning the poos in public domain. However,
25:28
Speaker 1: that being said, the design of Winnie the Pooh, the
25:32
Speaker 1: Disney version, that's a I'm sure that's trademarked. I have
25:36
Speaker 1: no doubt that Disney trademarked it. So I don't know
25:38
Speaker 1: how they get away with that, or if they will
25:40
Speaker 1: get away with I mean, I think there's so I
25:43
Speaker 1: was being generous when I said it looked like that
25:44
Speaker 1: Winni the po because it really looks like a heavier
25:48
Speaker 1: set person in a Disney Winnie the Poop mass to me.
25:52
Speaker 1: But it is definitely nightmarish looking. Yeah, these do not
25:59
Speaker 1: look like it doesn't look like five Nights at Freddie's style,
26:04
Speaker 1: you know, figures. They don't look like big plush figures
26:06
Speaker 1: come to life. They look like human beings who are
26:08
Speaker 1: wearing like a pig mask with tusks I guess to
26:12
Speaker 1: be Piglet. And this this vaguely Winnie the Pooh looking
26:16
Speaker 1: bear mass to be winning. And you're seeing them stalking teenagers,
26:22
Speaker 1: of course, because that's the fodder for all slasher films
26:26
Speaker 1: and uh and and attacking them and things like that,
26:29
Speaker 1: and you see Christopher Robin begging for mercy and all
26:32
Speaker 1: this kind of stuff. Uh. You said at the beginning
26:35
Speaker 1: that this did not land for you, and you were
26:37
Speaker 1: wondering if it landed for me. I can tell you
26:39
Speaker 1: right now it did not. I did not. I did
26:43
Speaker 1: not like this trailer. I did not think it was
26:47
Speaker 1: doing anything particularly interesting or doing it well. My feeling
26:52
Speaker 1: was this exists purely for shock value, and that's all
26:58
Speaker 1: it has going for it, at least based off what
27:02
Speaker 1: I saw in the trailer. Yeah, I agree with that.
27:06
Speaker 1: I think it's something I'm going to pass on. We
27:10
Speaker 1: do have one more trailer for something I don't think
27:12
Speaker 1: I'm going to pass on. I really So there was
27:18
Speaker 1: a story a while ago. It was in our show notes.
27:20
Speaker 1: I don't know if we covered it, if it was
27:22
Speaker 1: a story that got cut. But there is a series
27:25
Speaker 1: being made called Red Boot that is about rebooting like
27:27
Speaker 1: a classic family sitcom. It's kind of house esque, right,
27:35
Speaker 1: a fictional sitcom, but one that could have been made,
27:38
Speaker 1: say in the you know, early to mid nineties. Yeah,
27:43
Speaker 1: and so it's a satire on that, even though we
27:46
Speaker 1: have had reboots of shows, like so many reboots of
27:49
Speaker 1: classic nineties sitcoms. But the trailer just dropped for it.
27:55
Speaker 1: And it looks lovely because it's satirical and funny, although
28:00
Speaker 1: some of the humor is a little easy, uh, but
28:05
Speaker 1: it also shows an opportunity for these people who kind
28:08
Speaker 1: of lived in the limelight and then their lives fell apart,
28:15
Speaker 1: and it feels like it's going to be somewhat of
28:17
Speaker 1: a redemption story for all of them, which is a
28:24
Speaker 1: possible rhythmic. I'm hoping that not everyone gets redeemed, honestly,
28:28
Speaker 1: because I think it's more interesting that way. But yeah,
28:31
Speaker 1: it's the thing that so this reminds me more. This
28:35
Speaker 1: doesn't remind me of like say, Fuller House in the
28:37
Speaker 1: sense that the series isn't really about the reboot uh sitcom.
28:43
Speaker 1: It's really about the process of rebooting the sitcom. So
28:49
Speaker 1: it's really about the the whole behind the scenes stuff
28:55
Speaker 1: and the dynamic between the various actors and the fact
28:59
Speaker 1: that there's be between some of them that existed from
29:02
Speaker 1: way back when they made the show the first time
29:04
Speaker 1: and it never got squashed. So you have unsquashed beef
29:09
Speaker 1: running rampant among the casts. Beef yum. It's one of
29:13
Speaker 1: my favorite dishes, actually unsquashed beef. But yeah, no, it's
29:16
Speaker 1: it's it's one of those things where you know, you
29:19
Speaker 1: watch this little trailer and you're like, yeah, I totally
29:21
Speaker 1: get it. This feels to me kind of like a
29:22
Speaker 1: Galaxy Quest, where in Galaxy Quest you have the cast
29:28
Speaker 1: of a science fiction show and it's really more about
29:31
Speaker 1: the actors and their relationships both to the material and
29:35
Speaker 1: to each other. That there's a lot of that that's
29:38
Speaker 1: going through in the trailer for reboot, but it also
29:41
Speaker 1: happens to have some very funny and interesting choices for
29:45
Speaker 1: the cast, Like, you know, Judith Greer, Judy Greer is
29:48
Speaker 1: in it. She's in tons of stuff and is really funny.
29:52
Speaker 1: Rachel Bloom from My Crazy ex Girlfriend is playing a character.
29:56
Speaker 1: She's the one who is kind of spearheading the attempt
29:59
Speaker 1: to reboot the series. Yeah. I didn't even recognize him
30:05
Speaker 1: in the trailer at first, Like he looked different enough
30:09
Speaker 1: where I didn't. I was like, who is this actor?
30:12
Speaker 1: And I looked it up, like and once I knew
30:14
Speaker 1: who it was and I went back, I'm like, oh, yes,
30:16
Speaker 1: now I see it. I guess I haven't been things then, No,
30:22
Speaker 1: I haven't. I'm way behind. I've only seen the first
30:24
Speaker 1: season of Stranger Things, and I know I need to
30:26
Speaker 1: watch more of it, but I've only seen the first season. Yeah,
30:29
Speaker 1: this last season was really good. I will say it
30:32
Speaker 1: also has Key Michael Key in it, which is interesting
30:35
Speaker 1: because he was recently or maybe still is. I haven't
30:38
Speaker 1: watched it yet because I don't have Apple TV yet.
30:40
Speaker 1: Was in a satire about musicals Schmickadoon. Yeah, and now
30:45
Speaker 1: he's in the satire about sitcom reboots the I don't
30:51
Speaker 1: want to ruin it. In the trailer, there's a button
30:53
Speaker 1: at the end where they also make fun of all
30:55
Speaker 1: of the streaming services trying to delve into all these
31:00
Speaker 1: honors that I thought was brilliant and self aware in
31:02
Speaker 1: a good way. Yeah. I really enjoyed it. Yeah, I
31:07
Speaker 1: liked it a lot. I also feel that as someone
31:09
Speaker 1: who's tangentially involved in this because like the podcast space
31:15
Speaker 1: in particular has become a place that has fueled this
31:22
Speaker 1: interest in UH, in series, including in rebooting series. Like
31:27
Speaker 1: there's so many watch along podcasts now right, where you
31:32
Speaker 1: have people who were involved in the original project talking
31:36
Speaker 1: about the series episode by episode. You know. The Office
31:40
Speaker 1: I think has two or three different podcasts that do that,
31:44
Speaker 1: Scrubs has one. Uh, you know, there's tons of them,
31:48
Speaker 1: and so UH. I feel like some of that satire
31:52
Speaker 1: is probably going to hit real close to home for me.
31:55
Speaker 1: But that's okay. I like that. Yeah, yeah, So I'm
31:58
Speaker 1: looking forward to trying the series. We have one more
32:04
Speaker 1: news article and then we're going to give you a
32:06
Speaker 1: mash up, but it's just going to be Jonathan this week,
32:09
Speaker 1: so it better be good, my friend. Now I'm kidding.
32:14
Speaker 1: I've already tested my material out and it got a
32:16
Speaker 1: laugh that lasted long enough where I had to pause
32:20
Speaker 1: the story. Excellent, So real quick. Our last news article
32:24
Speaker 1: is that MPR did a tiny dusk concert for six
32:27
Speaker 1: the Musical, So if you wanted to watch about twenty
32:30
Speaker 1: minutes of six the Musical unstaged, you can do that. Yeah.
32:35
Speaker 1: It's a if you're not familiar with what six the
32:38
Speaker 1: Musical is, it's a a kind of a pop musical,
32:44
Speaker 1: uh pastiche where you get the six wives of Henry
32:49
Speaker 1: the Eighth gathering together kind of presenting their side of
32:54
Speaker 1: the story, you know, trying to demand to be more
32:57
Speaker 1: than just known as the first wife, the second wife,
33:00
Speaker 1: that their wife, etcetera. To kind of assert their own identities,
33:05
Speaker 1: their own agency outside of their relationship with this jerk
33:10
Speaker 1: who was a king. Uh. And Henry the Eighth, by
33:12
Speaker 1: the way, was one of the biggest jerks to ever
33:15
Speaker 1: rule England and that's some stiff competition. But uh yeah,
33:20
Speaker 1: so so the musical is there is a narrative that
33:24
Speaker 1: kind of goes with it, but it's almost more like
33:26
Speaker 1: a series of vignettes or really a series of musical numbers.
33:30
Speaker 1: It's like you're at a concert more than a story.
33:33
Speaker 1: So it was it was a fitting move. The thing
33:35
Speaker 1: that's interesting is that the actors, all of whom are amazing,
33:40
Speaker 1: and the musicians too, who are also amazing, are kind
33:44
Speaker 1: of still in theatrical performance mode as they perform inside
33:49
Speaker 1: nbr S offices, and there is a disconnect between how
33:54
Speaker 1: big they are with their performance and how small the spaces,
33:59
Speaker 1: and it really makes you feel that when you take
34:02
Speaker 1: a theatrical performance out of a theater and put into
34:05
Speaker 1: a smaller space, it looks like the most unnatural thing
34:08
Speaker 1: you've ever seen. I agree. It's great if you want
34:10
Speaker 1: to listen to some of the music from the current
34:12
Speaker 1: cast and watch them in their process, but it doesn't
34:16
Speaker 1: completely translate. I felt the same way about the Little
34:19
Speaker 1: Shop of Force Tiny Desk concert, which I know you
34:21
Speaker 1: have not watched yet, Jonathan, Yeah, yeah, it's it's interesting
34:26
Speaker 1: because on the one hand, as a viewer, I probably
34:31
Speaker 1: would want to get at least some of that like
34:34
Speaker 1: stage performance element incorporated into like a concert version of
34:40
Speaker 1: a show's numbers. On the other hand, it does feel
34:43
Speaker 1: very unnatural and forced when you're when you're outside the
34:46
Speaker 1: theatrical experience, it just feels artificial and weird, whereas in
34:51
Speaker 1: the context of a theater it feels totally natural, like
34:54
Speaker 1: that's where it belongs. And and it makes me think
34:56
Speaker 1: that maybe in the concert venue side, like when you're
34:59
Speaker 1: on the little the little space, maybe you just present
35:03
Speaker 1: the music and you dial back the stage performance part. Uh.
35:09
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's a tough call to make because you know,
35:11
Speaker 1: you and I we've both been in musicals and part
35:14
Speaker 1: of the fun is the theatricality, and to take that
35:17
Speaker 1: away kind of sometimes the music stands on its own,
35:22
Speaker 1: but sometimes it just can't. Sometimes you need that theatricality
35:25
Speaker 1: to really sell whatever it is that the song is.
35:28
Speaker 1: I agree, So let's get to some theatricality. We decided
35:33
Speaker 1: to mash up we need the Pooh and the Wizard
35:37
Speaker 1: of Oz. Yes, and I look forward to hearing your mashup, Jonathan. Well,
35:44
Speaker 1: my mashup is titled Dorothy and the hundred Acre would
35:49
Speaker 1: because I wanted to save all the jokes for the
35:53
Speaker 1: actual mash up, so I didn't do I didn't do
35:56
Speaker 1: a silly title for once. But here we go. Dorothy
36:02
Speaker 1: Gale has a problem. Well, she has a couple. For one,
36:06
Speaker 1: she's stuck in Kansas, of all places, and it's the
36:09
Speaker 1: Great Depression. For another, Technicolor won't come to Kansas for
36:13
Speaker 1: another five years, so everything is in black and white. Oh,
36:17
Speaker 1: and also they're tornadoes, lots of them. While on one
36:21
Speaker 1: of her many efforts to run away from home, all
36:24
Speaker 1: of which ultimately see her return to her farm disheartened,
36:28
Speaker 1: the tornadoes set in shucks, she says to no one. Well,
36:33
Speaker 1: maybe she says it to her dog, Toto, whom we
36:36
Speaker 1: will not hear about again for the rest of this
36:38
Speaker 1: mash up after this paragraph. But I want to assure
36:41
Speaker 1: you the dog is fine through this whole thing, so
36:45
Speaker 1: don't even worry about it. I lost track of time.
36:48
Speaker 1: It must be four pm, tornado time. And she plops
36:52
Speaker 1: Toto into her basket and then goes scampering back toward
36:56
Speaker 1: the general direction of her farm. End a paragraph, and
37:00
Speaker 1: also end of Toto's involvement with this story. Let's just
37:03
Speaker 1: assume it's blessing the reins down in Africa. Now, as
37:08
Speaker 1: we all know, tornadoes are always prompt in Kansas. They
37:13
Speaker 1: show up right on time, whether you've kept track of
37:15
Speaker 1: the day or not, and so Dorothy, being just a
37:18
Speaker 1: touch further from the farm than usual, is not able
37:22
Speaker 1: to make it back in time. And those twisters are
37:25
Speaker 1: getting mighty close. So out of desperation, Dorothy wedges herself
37:29
Speaker 1: into the trunk of a hollowed out tree that's fallen over.
37:32
Speaker 1: And while this protects her from some of the debris,
37:35
Speaker 1: it's not the most sturdy of shelters, and before she
37:39
Speaker 1: knows it, the log is picked up by a tornado
37:41
Speaker 1: and flies up into the air. All the spinning makes
37:45
Speaker 1: her ever so dizzy, so she finds it hard to
37:48
Speaker 1: remain conscious. She goes to sleepy sleeps, and when she
37:52
Speaker 1: wakes up, everything has changed. She discovers that the log
37:57
Speaker 1: she is in has landed in a glaze in the woods,
38:01
Speaker 1: and everything there is colorful, which is a real shock
38:05
Speaker 1: to the system. She gingerly gets out of the log
38:09
Speaker 1: and looks around at the lush green woods around her
38:12
Speaker 1: and underneath the log, she sees a pair of gray legs.
38:17
Speaker 1: Oh heavens, she says, I do hope I haven't hurt
38:20
Speaker 1: some poor creature, and she tries to move the log
38:23
Speaker 1: but has no luck. Thanks for trying, she hears behind
38:28
Speaker 1: the log, it's a sad, lugubrious voice. Moving around to
38:33
Speaker 1: the other side of the log, Dorothy sees the front
38:35
Speaker 1: half of a gray donkey. Kind of, I mean, it's
38:39
Speaker 1: clearly meant to be a donkey, but it also kind
38:41
Speaker 1: of looks like a large stuffed animal, you know, kind
38:43
Speaker 1: of like a Teddy bear, but donkey shaped. Oh my goodness,
38:48
Speaker 1: are you hurt, asks Dorothy. You needn't worry. I'm sorry
38:53
Speaker 1: for getting in the way of your log, says the donkey. Nonsense,
38:58
Speaker 1: says Dorothy. How can you hey something like that? And
39:01
Speaker 1: she pushes again on the log, and this time it
39:03
Speaker 1: moves a bit, so she starts rocking it back and
39:06
Speaker 1: forth and is finally able to push it off the donkey.
39:09
Speaker 1: There you go. The stuff donkey, looking a bit wonky
39:13
Speaker 1: because his stuffing got moved around so much, gets up,
39:16
Speaker 1: but it is apparently none the worse for wear. Thanks
39:20
Speaker 1: that was nice of you. I'm Dorothy, She says Dorothy. Gale,
39:24
Speaker 1: and what should I call you? I'm Eyor, says the donkey. Well,
39:31
Speaker 1: I should let you get back to whatever it was
39:35
Speaker 1: you were doing, Dorothy says, hold on, I don't even
39:40
Speaker 1: know where I am or how to get back to
39:43
Speaker 1: my home. You should talk to the robin, says i Or, Well,
39:48
Speaker 1: where do I find this the robin, she asks, He's
39:53
Speaker 1: at the other side of the hundred acre would unless
39:56
Speaker 1: he's out playing, which means he could be anywhere? Or
40:01
Speaker 1: what could you take me to him? Asks Dorothy. Well,
40:04
Speaker 1: I have been meaning to see him. I hope he
40:07
Speaker 1: knows where my tail is, says the donkey, and that
40:11
Speaker 1: Dorothy notices that sure enough, e Or is missing a tail. Well,
40:16
Speaker 1: then let's go find him. He can help me get
40:19
Speaker 1: home and find your tail. And with that, the donkey
40:22
Speaker 1: does something really weird. He begins to sing when an
40:28
Speaker 1: ass is a real tilter, A donkey goes off kilter
40:32
Speaker 1: and begins to whine and whale. I could be quite
40:36
Speaker 1: excessive rather than so depressive if I only had a tail.
40:41
Speaker 1: And Dorothy says, is this gonna happen a lot? And
40:45
Speaker 1: e Or just nods. So the two set out and
40:48
Speaker 1: before long, they come across a stuffed kangaroo. Hello, Kanga
40:53
Speaker 1: says the or Hello Or says Kanka. Have you seen
40:57
Speaker 1: my kid? Nope, says e Or. But we're on our
41:01
Speaker 1: way to see the robin to get this girl home.
41:04
Speaker 1: Her name is Dorothy. Maybe the robin has seen your son.
41:08
Speaker 1: So then Kanga says, when you pair up mars supials,
41:13
Speaker 1: things get real connubial. And a third one comes from
41:16
Speaker 1: two time is a ticken and my son's but I'll
41:20
Speaker 1: be kicking once I find my little roo. So now
41:25
Speaker 1: the three of them said off into the wood, and
41:27
Speaker 1: Dorothy says, are these what safe? And we don't really
41:31
Speaker 1: have forests in my part of Kansas, and Kana says, well,
41:35
Speaker 1: they're mostly safe as long as we avoid the hef
41:39
Speaker 1: a lumps and the woozles, says your oh and the tiggers,
41:44
Speaker 1: says Kenda. Hef a lumps and woozles and tiggers. Oh my,
41:49
Speaker 1: says Dorothy. And the three began chanting this phrase over
41:53
Speaker 1: and over, as if they'd fallen under some sort of
41:56
Speaker 1: cult like influence, until out of a shady spot, Dorothy
42:00
Speaker 1: spies a pair of eyes looking back at them, and
42:03
Speaker 1: she gasps, and from the darkness of the shade crawls
42:06
Speaker 1: a vicious tiger, or at least that's what looks like
42:09
Speaker 1: at first. It turns out it's not a vicious tiger.
42:12
Speaker 1: It's a stuff tiger. More precisely, it's a stuffed tigger.
42:15
Speaker 1: In fact, it's the one and only Tigger who steps
42:18
Speaker 1: right in front of Dorothy to the He yells, Oh,
42:22
Speaker 1: but you frightened me, says Dorothy, and Tigger immediately looks disappointed.
42:28
Speaker 1: Not as much as if I had my springer back,
42:30
Speaker 1: says Tigger. Your what, asks Dorothy. Tigger points to his tail,
42:36
Speaker 1: my springer. I normally spring and bounce and flounce, but
42:39
Speaker 1: I've lost my springer. Well, maybe the robin has your springer,
42:44
Speaker 1: says Dorothy. We're on our way to see him right now,
42:47
Speaker 1: and you can join us if you like. Thank you,
42:50
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, says Tigger. And then we get this.
42:54
Speaker 1: I am a thing of wonder above, below or under.
42:57
Speaker 1: When I get to do my thing like the I
43:00
Speaker 1: I'm mashed name clinger. I am fabulous with my springer.
43:03
Speaker 1: If I only had This was a bad rhyme scheme.
43:05
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. And with that, the four companions head on.
43:10
Speaker 1: It seems like hours go by, it was actually seventeen
43:14
Speaker 1: minutes when they encounter another glade and they see a
43:17
Speaker 1: young boy attempting to extricate something out of a large
43:21
Speaker 1: honey jar. Christopher Robin says Kanga, and the boy turns
43:25
Speaker 1: and waves. Oh, exclaims Dorothy, this was the Robin you
43:30
Speaker 1: meant or looks at Dorothy. Yes, Christopher Robin made this
43:35
Speaker 1: our home. He's the reason we can walk and talk. Hello,
43:38
Speaker 1: my friends, says Christopher Robin. Who is that you've got
43:41
Speaker 1: with you? I'm Dorothy Gale, says Dorothy, and I'm from Kansas.
43:46
Speaker 1: I'm trying to find my way back home. Well, says
43:49
Speaker 1: Christopher Robin. If you can help me get Pooh out
43:52
Speaker 1: of this jaw, I think I could be of assistance.
43:55
Speaker 1: Dorothy passes, hang on, you want me to scoop out
43:59
Speaker 1: of a jar? And Christopher Robin Blake's what no Pooh?
44:05
Speaker 1: You need? Winnie the Pooh? You vulga girl, And then
44:09
Speaker 1: Kanga leans over to Dorothy and says it's a teddy bear. Oh,
44:14
Speaker 1: I see, says Dorothy. Well, I'll be glad to help
44:17
Speaker 1: as long as I don't get poop on my hands.
44:20
Speaker 1: And with that, Dorothy, Kanga, e Or and Tigger help
44:24
Speaker 1: Christopher Robin extricate a very full, very happy, and very
44:28
Speaker 1: sleepy Winnie the Pooh from the honey jar. Now, then
44:32
Speaker 1: says Christopher Robin, let's get this salted, and he walks
44:36
Speaker 1: up to you Or. I found your tail on the
44:39
Speaker 1: edge of the woods. To be careful with ito, and
44:42
Speaker 1: with that he pins your's tail back on his hind quarters.
44:45
Speaker 1: Then he turns to Kanga and Rue was just on
44:48
Speaker 1: the other side of those bushes. He was chasing a butterfly.
44:52
Speaker 1: When I get my hands on that little bast says
44:55
Speaker 1: Kanga as she jumps off into the woods. And Tigger,
44:59
Speaker 1: you ran off before I could reinstall your springer after
45:02
Speaker 1: your both And with that, Christopher Robin performs a very
45:06
Speaker 1: graphic surgical procedure on a screaming Digger. As he reinserts
45:11
Speaker 1: the springer into Tigger's tail, it is incredibly disturbing. By
45:16
Speaker 1: the end, Tigger seems just fine. He has no memory
45:19
Speaker 1: of the medical torture he was just forced to endure.
45:23
Speaker 1: Thanks Pal, he says that he springs off, and as
45:26
Speaker 1: for you, he turns to Dorothy. The power to go home,
45:30
Speaker 1: was yours all along because you're actually still unconscious. It
45:35
Speaker 1: might be a coma. And then everything goes wibbly wobbly.
45:39
Speaker 1: As Dorothy feels herself sinking further into unconsciousness. The last
45:43
Speaker 1: thing she remembers hearing is a faint oh bother as
45:47
Speaker 1: Winnie the Pooh re enters the honey pot and a
45:50
Speaker 1: son of a bit from Christopher before she blacks out.
45:55
Speaker 1: When she wakes up, she's in a hospital. It's all
45:59
Speaker 1: in black and white again, and surrounding her is her
46:02
Speaker 1: family and the farm hands who work on her family's land. Oh,
46:06
Speaker 1: I was in the most amazing place as Dorothy, and
46:09
Speaker 1: not a single one of you was there the end.
46:15
Speaker 1: That was amazing. It was perfection. I left all the
46:19
Speaker 1: way through out, but you couldn't hear it because I
46:20
Speaker 1: had to meet my microphone because I've got some housework
46:22
Speaker 1: going on. But uh, it was everything I wanted for
46:26
Speaker 1: my Friday. Thank you, Jonathan, You're welcome. Yes, I had
46:30
Speaker 1: a lot of fun with that um when I read
46:33
Speaker 1: it to to our mutual friend Shay. The bit that
46:36
Speaker 1: got her the most was getting the Pooh out of
46:39
Speaker 1: the jar. That was very funny and can't. It just
46:42
Speaker 1: was all very funny. Again, like I said, perfection, this
46:46
Speaker 1: should be turned into a Disney movie, maybe with a
46:49
Speaker 1: little less uh mean words, because Disney. Well, I made
46:57
