Transcript
- 0:18Speaker 1: Welcome back to Children of the Eighties. I am Lindsay
- 0:21Speaker 1: and with me today is my fearless leader who lives
- 0:28Speaker 1: in Castle Gray School. When he's in the doghouse, it's
- 0:32Speaker 1: Jim Butler.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I'm living in Castle Gray School right now.
- 0:38Speaker 2: I kind of feel it. I'll be joining he Man
- 0:41Speaker 2: here in a few minutes. So you want to tell
- 0:46Speaker 2: everybody what we're doing today.
- 0:47Speaker 1: Okay, So this is what round two of our eighties
- 0:52Speaker 1: cartoon theme song bracket.
- 0:54Speaker 2: If it's technically still round one, but it's episode two.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Episode two.
- 0:58Speaker 2: Yes, we're doing a different region.
- 1:00Speaker 1: So this is the animals region.
- 1:03Speaker 2: Yes, animals.
- 1:05Speaker 1: So I feel like on some of these you really
- 1:08Speaker 1: took some creative liberty with the term animals.
- 1:12Speaker 2: I did, so. Somebody asked me about this. Actually, one
- 1:16Speaker 2: of our guests we'll get to in a minute ask
- 1:18Speaker 2: me about this. And the way I explained it is
- 1:22Speaker 2: we have people vote for theme songs, right, these cartoon
- 1:26Speaker 2: theme songs, and so those were our seeds. So I
- 1:28Speaker 2: couldn't get the seeds always perfectly in the right bracket,
- 1:33Speaker 2: but I had to go one through twenty in order
- 1:37Speaker 2: of their votes. And so that's why you see some
- 1:39Speaker 2: things that are kind of flunky. But after the seeded songs,
- 1:42Speaker 2: then we get to what the bracket is all about,
- 1:45Speaker 2: is the animals.
- 1:46Speaker 1: Okay, well we got some good ones today. That's about
- 1:49Speaker 1: all I know.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Yeah, much better than our last episode. But joining us
- 1:53Speaker 2: today we have guests again. So joining us today from
- 1:56Speaker 2: his podcast, Deaf Dave's nineteen eighty four is is Deaf
- 2:01Speaker 2: Dave Dave?
- 2:02Speaker 3: How you doing man, I'm doing great. Thanks for inviting
- 2:05Speaker 3: me on here. I'm excited to jump in.
- 2:08Speaker 2: And also joining us today are two of the coolest
- 2:12Speaker 2: hosts of the coolest podcast I know, the totally eighties
- 2:16Speaker 2: and nineties recall podcast, Dave and Robber. Here, gentlemen, how
- 2:21Speaker 2: you doing good?
- 2:23Speaker 4: I don't see the nicest thing anyone's said about our
- 2:26Speaker 4: podcast a long time.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Well, I figured last time I was on your podcast
- 2:31Speaker 2: and I said that I was a big fan of
- 2:32Speaker 2: the other guest who was there and not yours. So
- 2:35Speaker 2: I figured I ran, I gotta be nice this time.
- 2:38Speaker 4: Jim still harboring some resentment the last bracket we did
- 2:42Speaker 4: with him towards Rob and I, so he took his
- 2:45Speaker 4: opportunity to exact his revenge and it was fun I'm
- 2:49Speaker 4: excited to be here. I think Rob is too. I mean,
- 2:52Speaker 4: you look on his face.
- 2:53Speaker 5: I am excited.
- 2:55Speaker 1: He looks awake.
- 2:57Speaker 5: I'm awake. I'm here. I know. I like me with you.
- 2:59Speaker 5: People are fun.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Let me tell you. There's some threats and some some
- 3:04Speaker 1: things were said in our other episode that hasn't been
- 3:08Speaker 1: released yet. There's some some feelings still about last year.
- 3:13Speaker 1: People always say it's women that hold the garage. These
- 3:17Speaker 1: were the guys talking about it.
- 3:19Speaker 2: Actually wasn't that episode. It was actually when we were
- 3:22Speaker 2: of guests on Spinning the Wheel.
- 3:24Speaker 5: Oh we did this.
- 3:25Speaker 1: We did yes, Spinning the Wheel podcast with Matt Cook.
- 3:28Speaker 1: We did that on last Saturday. Yes, he's still holding
- 3:32Speaker 1: on to some feeling, Dave. I don't know he's he
- 3:37Speaker 1: might not be your biggest fan.
- 3:39Speaker 2: I think he's upset about Night Writer and night Court.
- 3:43Speaker 2: Oh okay, And I don't know what his issue is
- 3:46Speaker 2: with night Court, but uh.
- 3:48Speaker 3: You know, like Likenter, he.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Thinks Night Writer was the greatest thing ever and should
- 3:53Speaker 2: have won. I think that's why he's horworing the uh the.
- 3:56Speaker 4: Ill will I go down that road with him, But
- 3:59Speaker 4: I think it's a solid you know, But I'm excited.
- 4:02Speaker 4: For these songs, and I harbor no ill will to
- 4:04Speaker 4: last year, so I look forward to it.
- 4:07Speaker 1: We're starting with the fresh slight. That's good to know.
- 4:10Speaker 2: Yeah, So as we look over this bracket, gentlemen, what
- 4:15Speaker 2: were your initial thoughts? And Rob, I'll start with you.
- 4:21Speaker 5: Yeah, there's some I'll have to be honest, there's a
- 4:23Speaker 5: there's a few on this list that, uh, we're not
- 4:26Speaker 5: on my watch list of Saturday morning cartoons. So and
- 4:31Speaker 5: then there's several on these that weren't Saturday morning cartoons.
- 4:34Speaker 5: They were after school cartoons for me. Yes, but yeah,
- 4:38Speaker 5: there's someone here that we're Yeah, we're tough for me
- 4:42Speaker 5: to pin in because I didn't know much about them.
- 4:44Speaker 2: So if you had been on the show that we
- 4:50Speaker 2: recorded last week, there were a bunch that none of
- 4:53Speaker 2: us had ever heard of, or at least vaguely heard of.
- 4:56Speaker 2: So this this bracket is actually a lot better. I
- 4:59Speaker 2: don't expect everybody to know everyone who have watched everyone here,
- 5:03Speaker 2: but yeah, I.
- 5:04Speaker 5: Will say there were someone here that I had never
- 5:06Speaker 5: heard and they're really good. They're like there's some bangers
- 5:10Speaker 5: on there. I like them.
- 5:11Speaker 2: It's awesome. Glad to hear that. Deff Dave, I'll move
- 5:14Speaker 2: over to you. What were your initial thoughts on here?
- 5:17Speaker 3: My initial thoughts are, I must really be getting old
- 5:20Speaker 3: because I missed these.
- 5:23Speaker 2: I was.
- 5:23Speaker 3: I was too old for almost all of these except
- 5:27Speaker 3: I think laugh Olympics. I watched that one when I
- 5:29Speaker 3: was a kid, and that's about it. The rest of
- 5:32Speaker 3: these came all along and just a little too late
- 5:34Speaker 3: for me. So I feel like that private Ryan meme
- 5:36Speaker 3: I'm aging by the second, Dave.
- 5:38Speaker 2: What did you think when you first saw the bracket
- 5:41Speaker 2: and the seeding and all that all that fun stuff.
- 5:44Speaker 4: So this the seting looked actually citing, looks pretty good,
- 5:47Speaker 4: considering there was a couple I thought they got matched
- 5:50Speaker 4: up early that I would have liked to seem spread out.
- 5:51Speaker 4: But you know, what happens is what happens. I think
- 5:55Speaker 4: there's like four clear best versions of songs here. We'll
- 5:59Speaker 4: see if it mapp out that way for me. But
- 6:02Speaker 4: I know all before. I think I told you that
- 6:04Speaker 4: ahead of the time, there were four I'd never heard.
- 6:06Speaker 4: I listened to them. The other ones I may not
- 6:09Speaker 4: have watched, but I heard them somewhere in passing or
- 6:12Speaker 4: a couple of these my sister watch. So i'd hear
- 6:14Speaker 4: her with I think like care Bears, and there was
- 6:17Speaker 4: another one that is at the bottom.
- 6:21Speaker 3: Overall, I think scene's good.
- 6:22Speaker 4: But if the top two, I think don't get through,
- 6:26Speaker 4: it'll be a weird day.
- 6:27Speaker 3: So that's kind of where I'm not now.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Yeah, we had some major upsets in the in the
- 6:32Speaker 2: other region. Yeah, the number one seed did not make
- 6:36Speaker 2: it through, which I was shocked at. But with that
- 6:40Speaker 2: being said, I agree with you, Dave. There's actually a
- 6:43Speaker 2: bunch of good songs on here, but I think there's
- 6:44Speaker 2: two that really stick out more so than everything else.
- 6:48Speaker 2: But I will say that this is kind of like
- 6:51Speaker 2: the bracket of Death to me, I feel like most
- 6:54Speaker 2: of these songs are really good. Not all of them,
- 6:57Speaker 2: but most of them. You know. Death made a comment
- 7:02Speaker 2: earlier over text saying there must have been four year
- 7:04Speaker 2: old girls who voted for some of these songs. But
- 7:07Speaker 2: all I have to say about that is, hey, we
- 7:10Speaker 2: do have females that are on the panel, and hey
- 7:13Speaker 2: we do have a probably about forty to fifty percent
- 7:16Speaker 2: female listenership, so I can't just do all male shows.
- 7:21Speaker 1: With that being said, when I went through and listened
- 7:24Speaker 1: to these, I went who picked this crap where the
- 7:29Speaker 1: scrap come from?
- 7:31Speaker 4: I had one question about the animal region, so, and
- 7:34Speaker 4: I don't know if you can even give it away
- 7:36Speaker 4: or tell me or not. But of the sixty four
- 7:39Speaker 4: songs correct sixty four cartoon songs, did Muppet Babies make
- 7:45Speaker 4: the sixty four?
- 7:46Speaker 3: Yeah? Oh for sure.
- 7:47Speaker 4: Yeah, they're like I feel like there were enough animals
- 7:49Speaker 4: in that show that it would have been in this region.
- 7:52Speaker 4: I just was wondering because there's a couple in here
- 7:54Speaker 4: that aren't really animal related, and they're pretty animal related,
- 7:58Speaker 4: so I thought it would have been interest see for
- 8:00Speaker 4: them to be in here as well.
- 8:01Speaker 2: So so Muppet Babies is the same seed as ducktails,
- 8:05Speaker 2: so I couldn't put it the animals region, but uh,
- 8:10Speaker 2: or it may have been the next one down, but
- 8:12Speaker 2: it was like the top two seeds, so it didn't
- 8:15Speaker 2: belong here with ducktails. So uh, that's why it's not
- 8:19Speaker 2: in the animals. But it is certainly in there. It's
- 8:21Speaker 2: one of my favorites. I know it's one of Lindsay's favorites,
- 8:23Speaker 2: so uh, yeah, it's in there. It will be represented
- 8:26Speaker 2: and hopefully represented strongly when we get there, but just
- 8:29Speaker 2: not in this particular region perfect, and after this, I'll
- 8:33Speaker 2: send you guys all of the regions. I just didn't
- 8:35Speaker 2: want to get any confusion by sending you all of
- 8:39Speaker 2: them and saying, hey, look at this one.
- 8:41Speaker 4: It's just when I watched the Muppet Babies, I got
- 8:43Speaker 4: pigs and bears and yeah, one named animal in general, so.
- 8:51Speaker 2: For sure, But then you also got a gonzo and
- 8:53Speaker 2: nobody knows what he is, so kind of went into
- 8:56Speaker 2: the creatures. I think I think they're in the creatures
- 9:00Speaker 2: bracket if I'm not mistaken.
- 9:02Speaker 3: Not the worst, that makes sense.
- 9:05Speaker 2: Lindsay any thoughts. I know you said who picked this crap?
- 9:08Speaker 2: But it's not all craps.
- 9:09Speaker 1: No, it's not, no, no, no. But there were a
- 9:11Speaker 1: few that I was like, who what?
- 9:14Speaker 2: Well, now you you you used one word for one
- 9:19Speaker 2: song that we can't use on this podcast. We won't
- 9:21Speaker 2: get to that, but we will get to the song
- 9:24Speaker 2: here really quickly. All right, Well, here we go. We're
- 9:27Speaker 2: gonna get started with this first round of the bracket.
- 9:29Speaker 2: We have our first match up, the one seed versus
- 9:32Speaker 2: the sixteen seed. I do not expect this to be close,
- 9:35Speaker 2: but you guys have surprised me before, so we will
- 9:39Speaker 2: go forth here, but it is Ducktails is the one
- 9:42Speaker 2: seed versus the Berenstain Bears, which is the sixteen seed.
- 9:45Speaker 2: Here is Ducktails.
- 9:50Speaker 6: It's like the burricane in duck Birds.
- 9:57Speaker 7: Pair of Plane.
- 9:58Speaker 2: It's a duck.
- 10:01Speaker 8: My song, a mystery or reracket string.
- 10:09Speaker 9: Everything tails of cavin too bad.
- 10:22Speaker 2: So without giving anything away, you know, def I know
- 10:26Speaker 2: you said that you didn't watch most of these, and
- 10:29Speaker 2: you probably didn't watch Ducktails because you were probably in
- 10:32Speaker 2: high school by the time this thing came around. But
- 10:35Speaker 2: what do you think of the song?
- 10:38Speaker 3: It's fun, it's bouncy. It's hard to sit still listening
- 10:42Speaker 3: to it, you know. Uh. I think it's an example
- 10:45Speaker 3: of several of these other songs alone here that would
- 10:47Speaker 3: hit the same description, which is just perfectly good, little
- 10:50Speaker 3: kitty pop. The horns, I think, are also a lot
- 10:54Speaker 3: of fun. So it's yeah, it's a good listen.
- 10:57Speaker 2: It's easy. Okay, Dave, did you watch duct Tails? Did
- 11:03Speaker 2: you like it? And what do you think of the song?
- 11:05Speaker 3: So?
- 11:05Speaker 4: I did not watch Ducktails, but I knew what Ducktails was.
- 11:08Speaker 3: I believe this was.
- 11:09Speaker 4: This was an after school cartoon and by nineteen eighty
- 11:13Speaker 4: nine I'm in eighth grade, so I don't want the
- 11:15Speaker 4: other eighth graders thinking I'm watching Ducktails after school. So
- 11:18Speaker 4: we're gonna go we're.
- 11:19Speaker 3: Gonna say that we avoided that. But I will tell
- 11:21Speaker 3: you that.
- 11:21Speaker 4: No matter what I was flipping through channels or whatever,
- 11:24Speaker 4: if this song came on to preface the show, I
- 11:27Speaker 4: stopped and listen. The song is awesome. Regardless of ever
- 11:30Speaker 4: watching Scrooge swim through his coins or not, the song
- 11:33Speaker 4: is really really good.
- 11:35Speaker 2: So, Rob, you were not an eighth grade you were
- 11:38Speaker 2: in sixth grade? So were you out this after school?
- 11:41Speaker 5: Dan? I didn't care if the other kids knew I
- 11:44Speaker 5: liked this show. So I look forward to getting home
- 11:47Speaker 5: after school and throw my backpack down. And man, I
- 11:51Speaker 5: want to say, it came out around four o'clock. And
- 11:53Speaker 5: so I get home after school and this was on. Yeah,
- 11:57Speaker 5: this is a banger for me. I liked this song.
- 11:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 11:59Speaker 3: I say that if I were just a little bit younger,
- 12:01Speaker 3: I definitely would have been into this show. I am
- 12:04Speaker 3: enough of a comic book geek to know that there's
- 12:08Speaker 3: a there's a big tradition of adventure tales for the
- 12:11Speaker 3: Duck characters, and I like that they embraced that part
- 12:15Speaker 3: of it for the show. I thought it was a
- 12:16Speaker 3: great idea, and I know this is very popular and
- 12:19Speaker 3: people love it for that, for those types of stories.
- 12:22Speaker 3: So I'm kind of sorry that I missed it, but
- 12:24Speaker 3: it's definitely, uh you tell is a fun series.
- 12:28Speaker 2: So, Lindsey, you would have been about fifth grade or
- 12:31Speaker 2: so when this when this came out, fourth or fifth grade.
- 12:34Speaker 2: So what are your thoughts on duck Tails?
- 12:36Speaker 1: I don't think I watched duck Tails when it originally
- 12:39Speaker 1: came out, but I've seen it since then, and I
- 12:42Speaker 1: think it as far as hartooned theme songs, it doesn't
- 12:46Speaker 1: get a lot better than Duck Tails. If I'm not mistaken.
- 12:50Speaker 1: It's Disney, right, if Disney does everything really really well,
- 12:55Speaker 1: So of course this is a really well done theme song.
- 12:58Speaker 1: But to me, it checks off all the little criterias
- 13:01Speaker 1: that we have that would make up a good theme song.
- 13:04Speaker 1: This this just hits them all.
- 13:06Speaker 2: Do you want to get into those criterias?
- 13:09Speaker 1: Well, I think it's catchy and it gets stuck in
- 13:13Speaker 1: your head, which I think is a huge plaus But
- 13:16Speaker 1: it also tells a brief snippet of the story about
- 13:20Speaker 1: what the show is about and if you can see
- 13:22Speaker 1: the video with it, it hits on all the little characters.
- 13:25Speaker 5: So, okay, I'm just gonna add I don't know if
- 13:27Speaker 5: this will come up, but I think you can't avoid
- 13:32Speaker 5: or ignore the fact that it had a very high
- 13:35Speaker 5: production value, and so the writers behind it were very
- 13:40Speaker 5: big Dave nineties, Dave will appreciate this. That the the
- 13:45Speaker 5: guy that wrote it. He also wrote look Away by
- 13:48Speaker 5: Chicago What Yeah, Yeah you want to.
- 13:52Speaker 2: Won an hour.
- 13:53Speaker 5: He's an ads CAP Award winning songwriter, so he's he's.
- 13:58Speaker 3: You kidding me?
- 13:59Speaker 1: Do you know? That is my favorite song of all time?
- 14:03Speaker 5: And then the vocals behind it, he was a slack himself.
- 14:06Speaker 5: He was a big he's a big deal too. Away
- 14:09Speaker 5: that big production value on this one.
- 14:12Speaker 2: Rob bringing the noise.
- 14:14Speaker 4: We know, we know Rob's taking this seriously because he
- 14:16Speaker 4: said as Cap. You know, he's been known to me
- 14:19Speaker 4: have a freaking.
- 14:20Speaker 5: Slipping I got I got vilified in an episode for
- 14:24Speaker 5: calling it ass cap. That's which I like better, by
- 14:28Speaker 5: the way, but.
- 14:29Speaker 2: Anyway, I got called that earlier today. So much like Dave,
- 14:37Speaker 2: this was an afternoon cartoon show for me. I was
- 14:39Speaker 2: a little old when it came on. So I didn't
- 14:42Speaker 2: really watch it. You know, I might catch a few
- 14:44Speaker 2: minutes here and there as as younger siblings are watching
- 14:48Speaker 2: it and I'm in and out of the house. But uh,
- 14:50Speaker 2: but yeah, I always liked this song like it always
- 14:52Speaker 2: put me in a good mood. It was, you know,
- 14:55Speaker 2: I don't know if it's fun A lot of funs.
- 14:57Speaker 2: Everybody said, I don't have much more things than that.
- 15:00Speaker 2: It is going up against the sixteen Seed, the Berenstein Bears.
- 15:05Speaker 5: They wade a bear country. You'll know when you're there.
- 15:08Speaker 10: As soon as you enter, you will feel like a bear,
- 15:12Speaker 10: a great a barren Stain bear.
- 15:17Speaker 2: We are best.
- 15:21Speaker 5: We appreciate each other.
- 15:27Speaker 11: Mama, Papa soster remy sagas bets.
- 15:34Speaker 2: Here are Barren State Bear. All right, well that is
- 15:37Speaker 2: the Berenstein Bears. Before we get into that song and
- 15:40Speaker 2: that show, I have to know if any of the
- 15:43Speaker 2: three of you feel like I do that I am
- 15:46Speaker 2: now living in a different timeline or a different universe,
- 15:49Speaker 2: because when I was a kid, it was Berenstein or Berensteinbers.
- 15:53Speaker 2: That's how it was spelled Ei, not Ai. Uh So
- 15:58Speaker 2: does anybody else feel that way? Or do you remember
- 16:00Speaker 2: always being barren Stain Bears.
- 16:03Speaker 3: I agree with you, Jim, the timeline has shifted. I
- 16:08Speaker 3: swear it used to be Berenstein Bears.
- 16:12Speaker 4: I've always known them. I had some of these books,
- 16:15Speaker 4: and I always called it Berenstein Bears. So I guess
- 16:17Speaker 4: maybe I just couldn't talk. But that's why I always said.
- 16:21Speaker 4: And maybe that's us Northwest, our different dialect, but we
- 16:24Speaker 4: always went I always went Barnstein. Even when there was
- 16:27Speaker 4: an E there, I still said it with the stain and.
- 16:32Speaker 2: So there was an E.
- 16:34Speaker 5: That's funny to say that, because I found a lot
- 16:36Speaker 5: of stuff online about that. This people feel that this
- 16:39Speaker 5: song is like evidence of that because they actually say
- 16:44Speaker 5: Berenstein in the song. Yeah.
- 16:48Speaker 2: See, I told you I'm not crazy. We I had
- 16:52Speaker 2: it because as a kid, I used to think, is
- 16:54Speaker 2: it Berenstein or barren Stein? And I wouldn't have thought
- 16:58Speaker 2: that if it had an a on.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Well, anybody that spends any time on social media can
- 17:03Speaker 1: tell you that around the time of COVID we all jumped.
- 17:07Speaker 2: Time lines, timelines. Yeah, I mean twenty twenty. It makes sense,
- 17:12Speaker 2: all right.
- 17:12Speaker 3: So with that being said, yeah, don't hold that up
- 17:17Speaker 3: as proof that you're not crazy.
- 17:19Speaker 2: I'm telling you I've jumped I've jumped timelines here. So Rob,
- 17:26Speaker 2: did you watch barn Stain Bears?
- 17:28Speaker 5: I didn't, And I don't even remember as a kid
- 17:31Speaker 5: having like these books and stuff. So yeah, the the
- 17:34Speaker 5: Berenstain Bears were not a part of my childhood. So
- 17:38Speaker 5: I know who they were, and we.
- 17:40Speaker 3: Can I know that.
- 17:44Speaker 5: It played out in my childhood.
- 17:46Speaker 2: I was deprived, all right, So we'll stick with your
- 17:50Speaker 2: radio partner here, Dave. What did you think or what
- 17:54Speaker 2: did you did you watch barn Stain Beers?
- 17:57Speaker 3: I did watch this.
- 17:58Speaker 4: I remember my grandparents, I think, would put it on
- 18:01Speaker 4: when I went over to their house. I remember eating
- 18:03Speaker 4: smaller and watching this, So I did watch it though,
- 18:05Speaker 4: And I remember I remember those bears, and I had
- 18:07Speaker 4: those books, got them at the Scholastic Fair a few times,
- 18:10Speaker 4: so I did read them. I feel like I need
- 18:12Speaker 4: to stand up and salute when I listen to this song.
- 18:14Speaker 4: It's very patriotic sounding, kind of weird going on.
- 18:17Speaker 5: Here's the interesting segue I'm going to add to that.
- 18:21Speaker 5: So the guy that wrote this, composed it. His name
- 18:24Speaker 5: was Elliott Lawrence. He's you go look him up. He's
- 18:27Speaker 5: well like he's he's no slouch. He was named one
- 18:31Speaker 5: of the fifty best Jazz recordings in the twentieth century.
- 18:34Speaker 5: He's got a Tony Award, nine Emmy Awards. But he
- 18:38Speaker 5: is responsible for writing the be all you Can Be
- 18:41Speaker 5: slogan and the Older's Coffee slogan, the best part of
- 18:45Speaker 5: waking up?
- 18:46Speaker 1: Are you just making this stuff off?
- 18:48Speaker 5: I'm not making up. His name's Elliott Lawrence. He's got
- 18:51Speaker 5: nine Emmys, he's one. He's composed movies music for Oscar
- 18:54Speaker 5: winning films. He's yeah. But his production company was responsible
- 18:58Speaker 5: for the All you Can Be logan, the folders the
- 19:01Speaker 5: best part of Waking Up slope. So that's why you
- 19:03Speaker 5: probably hear the got a little marching rhythm to it.
- 19:09Speaker 4: Well, my final thought on that is that I actually
- 19:12Speaker 4: don't dislike this song, and it's got good nostalgia memory
- 19:15Speaker 4: for me. So actually, this is one of your few
- 19:17Speaker 4: seedings I wasn't excited about. I kind of wish it
- 19:20Speaker 4: didn't have to go up against duct Tails to start
- 19:23Speaker 4: the game. I think there's some other ones that it
- 19:24Speaker 4: could have definitely done better against, but it is what
- 19:27Speaker 4: it is. But I still think it's a solid song,
- 19:29Speaker 4: got some good memories to it.
- 19:31Speaker 2: I'm with you, I'm with you, They deaf Dave.
- 19:36Speaker 3: I did not watch this show, but I was very
- 19:38Speaker 3: familiar with the beren Steinbears. I had a whole bunch
- 19:43Speaker 3: of the books when I was really young, and it
- 19:46Speaker 3: seems like they probably had some TV specials here and there,
- 19:49Speaker 3: So I have nostalgia for the characters, although not for
- 19:54Speaker 3: this show specifically. The song is fine. I definitely hear
- 19:59Speaker 3: the patriotism, but you know, it makes me recall the
- 20:03Speaker 3: Bugs Bunny Daffy Show open where they're all dancing in
- 20:06Speaker 3: front of the Red curtain and doing all that, and
- 20:09Speaker 3: it kind of fizzed me a little bit. At they're
- 20:10Speaker 3: trying to rip off the Looney tune, so it's working
- 20:13Speaker 3: against them here in my opinions, Lindsey.
- 20:17Speaker 1: So, I didn't even know that the Berenstein Bears did
- 20:20Speaker 1: a cartoon show. So I had the books. I got
- 20:24Speaker 1: the books and I guess at the school book fair
- 20:26Speaker 1: each year and then saved them and they were really
- 20:30Speaker 1: big in our house when Emmy was little. We read
- 20:32Speaker 1: them a million times. So that brings back a lot
- 20:35Speaker 1: of warm fuzzies for me. But you know, it was
- 20:38Speaker 1: I think when I first listened to it preparing for
- 20:41Speaker 1: this show. I was like, this is a bunch of
- 20:42Speaker 1: bear crap, but I think they'll down a little hard
- 20:48Speaker 1: on it. I think it is a cute, little catchy song.
- 20:54Speaker 5: But that was really bad. Didn't there? You didn't even try.
- 21:07Speaker 9: So.
- 21:07Speaker 2: I also had the books as a kid, and I
- 21:10Speaker 2: do remember this vaguely. It was almost like this is
- 21:13Speaker 2: in another timeline too, But I remember the cartoon vaguely.
- 21:17Speaker 2: I always got excited. I think maybe it was the
- 21:19Speaker 2: specials that came on, and maybe not the actual cartoon.
- 21:21Speaker 2: The specials would come on and I'd get excited because
- 21:23Speaker 2: I had those books. But it doesn't you know, the
- 21:26Speaker 2: song doesn't mean a whole lot to me. I agree
- 21:28Speaker 2: with you all that it is very patriotic. I do
- 21:31Speaker 2: like the sense of nostalgia that it brings back to
- 21:33Speaker 2: me because it is the Berenstain Bears. But like Dave said,
- 21:37Speaker 2: it's unfortunate it's going up against ducktails. So with that
- 21:41Speaker 2: being said, let's get to the voting. I will start
- 21:46Speaker 2: so on my screen to the right, we'll go right
- 21:50Speaker 2: the left like we're reading Hebrew or something. Nineties days.
- 21:57Speaker 2: I think I know your vote, but go ahead and
- 21:59Speaker 2: make it official.
- 22:00Speaker 4: Yeah, right, before I have over ducktails. I do want
- 22:02Speaker 4: to say I think Rob's a little harsh on Lindsay there.
- 22:05Speaker 4: I think that was a fairly high ended dad joke,
- 22:09Speaker 4: and considering the company your podcasting today, he hit plump
- 22:13Speaker 4: you out. So Rob's just you know, I think these
- 22:16Speaker 4: we we'll up on the wrong side of the farm today.
- 22:17Speaker 4: So definitely, questions asked.
- 22:22Speaker 2: Rob, you are next my right.
- 22:25Speaker 5: Yeah, I think this is a slam dun ducktails all
- 22:27Speaker 5: the way man.
- 22:28Speaker 3: Lindsay, ducktails, deaf Dave bearising bears are not getting my vote.
- 22:35Speaker 2: This ducktails, and I will make an official that it
- 22:39Speaker 2: is duct tails to close it out and really blow
- 22:44Speaker 2: it out. But you know, I do like the Berenstain Bears,
- 22:48Speaker 2: but it's no ducktails. So with that being said, that
- 22:53Speaker 2: leads us to our eight to nine match up. Our
- 22:57Speaker 2: eight seed is Team Wolf and our nine seed is Olympics.
- 23:00Speaker 2: I think this might be a little bit closer than
- 23:02Speaker 2: the last one. Should be interesting. Here is Team Wolf.
- 23:07Speaker 12: Oh no, not again.
- 23:15Speaker 5: It's a Harry.
- 23:18Speaker 3: Oh Die.
- 23:19Speaker 5: If anyone sees me like this, hey man sake.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Don't be shot. If it happens to you.
- 23:26Speaker 5: Hi, Grandpa, Good morning, Scutty.
- 23:28Speaker 7: It's fun being different if you have I have the attitude.
- 23:33Speaker 3: Only my friend's booking styles. No, my hairy secret.
- 23:36Speaker 7: I'm feeling Harry and my teeth are mean.
- 23:40Speaker 9: I got a weird complexity style.
- 23:45Speaker 2: Okay, So Linsey, did you know that that cartoon existed?
- 23:49Speaker 2: Before I got to this?
- 23:50Speaker 1: I had no idea, never never watched the cartoon. Don't
- 23:55Speaker 1: even ever remember seeing the cartoon, uh, you know, on tea,
- 24:00Speaker 1: like even passing through the room. So I don't know
- 24:02Speaker 1: where I was at.
- 24:03Speaker 2: But deaf Dave, did you know that Team Wolves the
- 24:06Speaker 2: cartoon existed? I did not.
- 24:09Speaker 3: No, I missed this one.
- 24:13Speaker 2: Day, even Rob, did you guys know? I suspect you did.
- 24:18Speaker 2: I I would.
- 24:20Speaker 5: I'm gonna say I didn't, but I'm gonna go out
- 24:21Speaker 5: in a limb and said David knew all about this cartoon.
- 24:25Speaker 4: This is why you should never speak for me, because
- 24:27Speaker 4: I did not know this was a cartoon as a
- 24:29Speaker 4: matter of fact. So I don't know if I just
- 24:32Speaker 4: missed it, or maybe I just didn't get programmed for
- 24:35Speaker 4: us on the West Coast on our Saturday mornings or
- 24:37Speaker 4: whenever it was on, but I definitely never even sought
- 24:39Speaker 4: preview for it.
- 24:40Speaker 2: I didn't know so this it was a Saturday Morning cartoon.
- 24:44Speaker 2: It didn't last real long, but maybe a couple of years.
- 24:48Speaker 2: But the Styles They Styles is like one of the
- 24:51Speaker 2: best cartoon characters of all time. He was awesome in
- 24:54Speaker 2: this show. You know, it was to me the show
- 24:56Speaker 2: was better because of Styles and not because of Team Wolves.
- 25:00Speaker 2: And that certainly wasn't Michael J. Fox's voice as Scott Howard.
- 25:06Speaker 5: They're trying to I did the job be creating it.
- 25:11Speaker 2: All right, So then I have to know, going in
- 25:15Speaker 2: the same order, what did you think of the song? Lindsey?
- 25:18Speaker 1: So, I wanted to hate it, but I didn't. It
- 25:22Speaker 1: was it was It's kind of catchy and it it
- 25:24Speaker 1: was very eighties.
- 25:26Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly very eighties deaf Dave, uh.
- 25:31Speaker 3: So, I'm kind of the same way. I kind of
- 25:33Speaker 3: I went in wanting to not like it, like punish
- 25:38Speaker 3: it for being below my notice from whenever it was around.
- 25:42Speaker 3: But I have to say, and I know we're judging
- 25:44Speaker 3: the song here, but that opening animated shot of the
- 25:46Speaker 3: howling wolf like really impressed me. And then you're listening
- 25:50Speaker 3: to the song and you know the song is checking
- 25:52Speaker 3: all the boxes, and I have to say that it
- 25:54Speaker 3: does a good job of not only being fun and catchy,
- 25:57Speaker 3: but kind of explaining the premise of the show and
- 26:01Speaker 3: kind of echoing the movie in terms of making this
- 26:04Speaker 3: werewolf ism a metaphor for puberty. And there's even a
- 26:08Speaker 3: message in there about about you know, it's okay being
- 26:11Speaker 3: different if you've got a good attitude about it. So
- 26:14Speaker 3: I you know, in this thirty seconds or whatever it is,
- 26:17Speaker 3: I came away very impressed.
- 26:20Speaker 2: Rob.
- 26:21Speaker 5: I like that this is one of the ones I'd
- 26:22Speaker 5: never heard, and I thought it worked. I thought it
- 26:24Speaker 5: was a great song, giving me kind of huge Luis vibes,
- 26:27Speaker 5: and so it really uh captured the eighties kind of
- 26:32Speaker 5: feel that I was looking for at the time. And
- 26:34Speaker 5: I'm with Deaf Dave where the live video. I like
- 26:40Speaker 5: the graphics that they used, kind of the mix with
- 26:42Speaker 5: the like kind of a rotoscope type video. I thought
- 26:45Speaker 5: that was good.
- 26:46Speaker 1: It's on fire.
- 26:47Speaker 4: I get one ride every now and then given one
- 26:51Speaker 4: once in a while, so we I'm shocked.
- 26:54Speaker 3: This is like a festive love for the teen wolf.
- 26:58Speaker 5: Here.
- 26:58Speaker 3: Here here's the bad.
- 26:59Speaker 4: I'll tell you the the lyrics are just they didn't
- 27:01Speaker 4: even try. This is pretty rough. I feel like when
- 27:04Speaker 4: I was six, I kind of wrote this song. But
- 27:06Speaker 4: that's that's fine. And the guy singing takes me out
- 27:11Speaker 4: just a little bit. I don't know what that voice is,
- 27:13Speaker 4: but it's not the best. The tune itself, like the
- 27:16Speaker 4: musical version, like the music, it is very eighties feeling,
- 27:19Speaker 4: so I like that. So that's the good. The good
- 27:21Speaker 4: is it does have that eighties feel to it. It
- 27:23Speaker 4: just that guy singing.
- 27:25Speaker 3: I don't love him so but overall it's solid, you know.
- 27:29Speaker 3: I don't need to hear it every day.
- 27:30Speaker 2: But yeah, So the only part that I remembered of
- 27:34Speaker 2: this song was the beginning, the beginning, how and then
- 27:39Speaker 2: the teen wolf coming out to play I do. I
- 27:42Speaker 2: do agree with you. The voice could have been better
- 27:45Speaker 2: if they had had Hueye. This may be, you know,
- 27:48Speaker 2: like a number two seed.
- 27:51Speaker 4: State for texting value is really bad on this, Like
- 27:53Speaker 4: the productive it sounds bad. It sounds like you recorded
- 27:55Speaker 4: it in a basement.
- 27:56Speaker 2: Right, yeah, And it was the best recording that I
- 27:58Speaker 2: could find. But I did like this show. I do
- 28:04Speaker 2: like the song. The tune is very catchy, and now
- 28:07Speaker 2: it's coming up against the number nine seed Laugh Olympics.
- 28:19Speaker 13: It's Scooby's All Star Laugh Olympics starring Scooby.
- 28:23Speaker 14: Doo and the Gang, Scooby Doo, Blue Falcons and his
- 28:29Speaker 14: mechanical misfit Chinel Mutt Dog Wonder the Fee and introducing
- 28:36Speaker 14: the world's first superhero, Captain Caveman and his mystery solving
- 28:41Speaker 14: companions the Teen Angels.
- 28:46Speaker 13: Can And it's round the World triple team competition with
- 28:52Speaker 13: the Scooby Dooe.
- 28:53Speaker 2: So I know that when this show started, three of
- 28:57Speaker 2: you were way too young to know what this was.
- 29:00Speaker 2: They did bring it back in nineteen eighty ish eighty
- 29:04Speaker 2: eighty one to replay the third season, but this was
- 29:07Speaker 2: basically the cartoon version of Battle of the Network Stars.
- 29:14Speaker 2: I love this cartoon as a kid because it had
- 29:16Speaker 2: forty five different cartoon characters on that deaf dave. I
- 29:20Speaker 2: know that you love this, so I will let you
- 29:22Speaker 2: go first take it away.
- 29:30Speaker 3: Yes, I love Laugh Olympics. Not only is this the
- 29:33Speaker 3: only show in this bracket that I actually watched as
- 29:37Speaker 3: a kid, because that's how far back the show goes
- 29:40Speaker 3: and how far back I go. This is one of
- 29:43Speaker 3: my favorite as a kid because it was like the Avengers.
- 29:46Speaker 3: Everybody is teaming up all at once. You're getting like
- 29:49Speaker 3: all the characters. So to see everybody in one show
- 29:53Speaker 3: was a lot of fun. And you see them competing,
- 29:55Speaker 3: and of course the bad guys are always cheating, and
- 29:58Speaker 3: so I I have a tremendous amount of nostalgia for
- 30:02Speaker 3: laugh Olympics. I thought it was great when I when
- 30:05Speaker 3: I was like eight years old, I thought it was
- 30:06Speaker 3: the best thing ever.
- 30:09Speaker 2: David, what did you think?
- 30:11Speaker 4: Well, I didn't watch this show. I kind of vaguely
- 30:14Speaker 4: remember this, But I'm gonna I got two things. First,
- 30:18Speaker 4: that voiceover guy, you think he as soon as he
- 30:21Speaker 4: was done recording that, he was laughing.
- 30:22Speaker 3: He's like, what am I? What am I saying here?
- 30:23Speaker 3: Yogi Doggi boogie.
- 30:25Speaker 4: I don't know, there's just a bunch of crazy words
- 30:27Speaker 4: in there. I'm like, you better pay. He got paid. Well,
- 30:29Speaker 4: I would just say that. But two, I'm controversially I'm
- 30:32Speaker 4: gonna say I don't consider this a song, not another
- 30:36Speaker 4: some music in the background, but they're talking the whole time,
- 30:38Speaker 4: So I don't even know why this kind of qualifies.
- 30:42Speaker 4: But you're the bracket master, so I will yield to
- 30:46Speaker 4: your expertise. But I can without tipping my hand on
- 30:49Speaker 4: the vote here, I don't really even consider this a song, So.
- 30:53Speaker 5: Rob also a song. I didn't or a show. I
- 30:57Speaker 5: didn't catch It's interesting as all mentioned it, but when
- 31:01Speaker 5: I was researching, I found it. This was one of
- 31:04Speaker 5: the first times that a cartoon did like a crossover.
- 31:07Speaker 5: So you mentioned the Avengers and it talked about this
- 31:10Speaker 5: is the first time that you had multiple cartoons that
- 31:13Speaker 5: came together in one show, and that was that was
- 31:15Speaker 5: new for the time, that was innovative. The guy that
- 31:19Speaker 5: wrote it, he did almost every Hanna Barbara theme. He
- 31:23Speaker 5: did the Flintstones Jetsons, So yeah, I thought it was
- 31:28Speaker 5: I think there's a lot of sentimental value in the song,
- 31:31Speaker 5: but didn't hit home for me.
- 31:33Speaker 1: So, Linda, I had never even heard of laugh Olympics
- 31:37Speaker 1: until I met you, and you talked a lot about
- 31:41Speaker 1: laugh Olympics, So wasn't a show that was on my radar.
- 31:45Speaker 1: And I agree with nineties Dave. It's not really he
- 31:49Speaker 1: doesn't sing. He kind of just talks music. There is music,
- 31:54Speaker 1: but I mean, I guess, what's the definition of a
- 31:58Speaker 1: theme song? Does there have to be singing?
- 32:01Speaker 2: Was there singing in Night Court? Was there singing in
- 32:04Speaker 2: the Cosme show.
- 32:05Speaker 12: Okay, okay, I mean you gonna have to get the
- 32:09Speaker 12: defensive Chim Magnum p I Miami Vice, And to be fair,
- 32:14Speaker 12: none of those songs won the brackets.
- 32:16Speaker 3: So I don't know. So you.
- 32:18Speaker 1: There you go. So I don't know. I mean, you know,
- 32:22Speaker 1: was it kind of a fun little like yeah, you know,
- 32:25Speaker 1: it kind of had that fun little whatever did you
- 32:28Speaker 1: like that you'd be done yet?
- 32:30Speaker 3: Okay?
- 32:32Speaker 2: So it was the Scooby Doobies in the Yogi Yahooies.
- 32:36Speaker 2: I think Dave was what you were trying to come
- 32:37Speaker 2: up with.
- 32:38Speaker 5: I really really rotten, as a really rotten.
- 32:41Speaker 2: Say, the Yogi Yahoies had like Yogi Bear and quick
- 32:45Speaker 2: Draw Care and you know others I don't I don't remember,
- 32:49Speaker 2: but yeah, it was good stuff. Like I said, it
- 32:52Speaker 2: was battling network stars and it had a snaggle pusses.
- 32:56Speaker 2: The announcer even, uh, yeah, I love the show. I
- 33:02Speaker 2: like this show better than I like Teen Wolf. I
- 33:04Speaker 2: actually introduced Emmy to this show because it's on TB
- 33:07Speaker 2: and so we would watch it in the mornings before school.
- 33:10Speaker 2: She ended up loving it too, So that's a bond
- 33:13Speaker 2: that I have. But With that being said, we're voting
- 33:15Speaker 2: on the song, not necessarily the show, but it is
- 33:20Speaker 2: time to vote. Lindsay, I'll let you vote first.
- 33:24Speaker 1: You know, might be a little controversial, but I'm going
- 33:28Speaker 1: with teen Wolf. Teen Wolf is a theme song to me. Now,
- 33:33Speaker 1: I never listened to it, never watched the show, but
- 33:36Speaker 1: I feel like it is more of a theme song
- 33:38Speaker 1: than the Lave Olympics.
- 33:39Speaker 3: Deef Dave, Okay, so we're giving our votes right now. Yeah, okay.
- 33:45Speaker 3: So I'm looking at the list of songs that you
- 33:48Speaker 3: send me, and this, I'm i it is merely drawn
- 33:51Speaker 3: to this particular pairing and going, oh, this is gonna
- 33:54Speaker 3: be a cake qualt for laugh Olympics. It's the one
- 33:56Speaker 3: show I know, the one show that I watched. Didn't
- 33:59Speaker 3: even know teen Wolf existed. This is this is not
- 34:02Speaker 3: even gonna be a contest. That said, we are judging
- 34:07Speaker 3: songs and not shows, And I agree with what.
- 34:11Speaker 2: Dave and Lindsay said.
- 34:12Speaker 3: I don't think this really qualifies as a theme song.
- 34:17Speaker 3: If it had remained instrumental, maybe you can get away
- 34:19Speaker 3: on a technicality, but there's a difference between theme song
- 34:22Speaker 3: and background music. And I think all the talking and
- 34:25Speaker 3: the character voices heard it and already said some nice things,
- 34:29Speaker 3: nice things about the teen Wolf songs. So I'm standing
- 34:32Speaker 3: by that, and it's enough to tip my boat. So
- 34:34Speaker 3: I'm going teen Wolf, all right, Rob.
- 34:39Speaker 5: I'm not smart enough to get in on whether or
- 34:40Speaker 5: not it's a theme song or not, but I'm gonna go.
- 34:43Speaker 5: I just think teen Wolf is. I liked it. I
- 34:45Speaker 5: thought it was a killer song. So yeah, I'm going
- 34:47Speaker 5: teen Wolf because I like it, all right.
- 34:52Speaker 3: Dave, Yeah, it's team Wolf.
- 34:54Speaker 4: The eighties vibe was gonna win anyway. But you know,
- 34:58Speaker 4: going with my first defense of the other one not
- 35:01Speaker 4: really being a song, it makes it any easy vote,
- 35:04Speaker 4: all right.
- 35:05Speaker 2: I also will go teen Wolf. I actually do like
- 35:07Speaker 2: that theme song, so as munch as it hurts me
- 35:10Speaker 2: to vote against laugh Olympics, I must do it because
- 35:13Speaker 2: the teen Wolf theme song is better. So that moves
- 35:17Speaker 2: us on to our next matchup, which is our four
- 35:21Speaker 2: versus thirteen seed, shipping Dale's Rescue Rangers versus the Saturday
- 35:26Speaker 2: super Kid. Here is shipping Dale.
- 35:37Speaker 8: Times, So time go slip in through the pass to
- 35:44Speaker 8: come shoes begin, not the sack.
- 35:49Speaker 2: There's no case to go case.
- 35:51Speaker 8: Too smart, but you need help just got.
- 35:57Speaker 15: Best page, so you may be the only woman watched
- 36:13Speaker 15: this maybe, Rob, Dude, what do you think?
- 36:17Speaker 1: I like it? It's catchy, it's cute. I did watch Chippendale,
- 36:23Speaker 1: so it gets my boat with nothing else than just
- 36:26Speaker 1: the nostalgia part of it. But again, I think it's Disney.
- 36:30Speaker 1: Isn't Chippendale Disney, So you can definitely tell they had
- 36:33Speaker 1: the money to put into this production and it shows.
- 36:37Speaker 5: It's a good one.
- 36:38Speaker 2: Rob, did you watch Chippendale?
- 36:42Speaker 5: Absolutely, this is an after school lineup. It was a
- 36:47Speaker 5: it was a Rescue Rangers, a tail spin. It had
- 36:50Speaker 5: caught that one. It was a good one. Uh no, uh,
- 36:53Speaker 5: there's a there's a classic. I love it. Also done
- 36:56Speaker 5: by the same people that did Ducktails, same composer, the
- 37:00Speaker 5: same vocals. The original. If you didn't know this, the
- 37:03Speaker 5: original version of this song was sung by the Jets.
- 37:08Speaker 2: Wow Now that's wow.
- 37:11Speaker 5: And then it was remade in twenty twenty two by
- 37:13Speaker 5: Post Malone. Once we listened to that, yeah, and that
- 37:16Speaker 5: version is pretty killer. It's actually really good. Yeah, don't
- 37:21Speaker 5: don't don't second guys, after the show, go check it out.
- 37:24Speaker 5: They remade it in twenty twenty two. They had like
- 37:26Speaker 5: a made for Disney, Disney plus movie and post Malone
- 37:29Speaker 5: did it. It goes pretty hard. It's very good, so.
- 37:34Speaker 4: Uh David David, Yes, I didn't watch again. My head
- 37:41Speaker 4: aged out of this cartoons by this point. But again,
- 37:44Speaker 4: I knew the song because I knew the song, maybe
- 37:45Speaker 4: because I went to Rob's house. These dance around the
- 37:47Speaker 4: living room.
- 37:47Speaker 3: I don't know. Point me in that.
- 37:50Speaker 5: You can't miss Rescue Rangers man.
- 37:52Speaker 4: Definitely, Like Lindsay said, it's Disney and look they I
- 37:55Speaker 4: think they just walk back and student go, look, you
- 37:57Speaker 4: already ripped off that banger for Doug tails.
- 38:00Speaker 3: Just flip it.
- 38:00Speaker 4: We needed something for squirrels instead or chipmunks and hit
- 38:04Speaker 4: us boom. They came back and they're like, yep, there
- 38:05Speaker 4: you going. So very memorable. It's a good song. Again,
- 38:08Speaker 4: like if you put this on radio, Disney kids would
- 38:11Speaker 4: be danced around the living room and maybe be having
- 38:12Speaker 4: a good time stuff.
- 38:15Speaker 3: Jeff Dave, Yeah, I'll echo everybody else said a lot
- 38:19Speaker 3: of fun. The theme song high Energy definitely wakes up.
- 38:24Speaker 3: It's kind of hard to miss the song. I did
- 38:27Speaker 3: miss this series. I was in college when this was
- 38:29Speaker 3: coming out originally in nineteen eighty nine. But you know,
- 38:33Speaker 3: I respect for taking a pair of fairly minor characters
- 38:38Speaker 3: and finding a way to put them into a hit show,
- 38:41Speaker 3: you know, following the ducktails formula a little bit, putting
- 38:45Speaker 3: them in at venture scenarios. Does it hurt to dress
- 38:48Speaker 3: one up like Indiana Jones and the other one up
- 38:50Speaker 3: like magnum p I yeah, but the high energy. I
- 38:55Speaker 3: love the horns. It's just said, it's a happy song.
- 38:58Speaker 3: By the time it's over, you're up and ready for
- 39:01Speaker 3: whatever adventure awaits. So I like it a lot.
- 39:04Speaker 5: I found a note that said the show was originally
- 39:07Speaker 5: going to be called The Metro Mice. What which I
- 39:11Speaker 5: just put a note said fact check that because that's
- 39:13Speaker 5: an absolutely horn in his name. They're not even mice. No,
- 39:17Speaker 5: they're chipmunks, so that wouldn even make a good show.
- 39:21Speaker 5: Is a dumb title anyway, I can't believe. I don't
- 39:25Speaker 5: believe that fact at all, because well.
- 39:27Speaker 3: Be great that you shared it with us.
- 39:28Speaker 5: Rock has done this a long time. They know they're animals.
- 39:34Speaker 5: They're not going to call this to show the Metro
- 39:37Speaker 5: Mice and they're chipmunks, everybody.
- 39:39Speaker 3: I mean, I guess you could have put Mickey and
- 39:40Speaker 3: Mini on it, right.
- 39:42Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 39:42Speaker 2: Maybe this to me is just like Ducktails. You know,
- 39:48Speaker 2: it's one of those shows that was on when I
- 39:50Speaker 2: got home, but I didn't really watch it. Might catch
- 39:53Speaker 2: a minute here and there, but always caught the theme song.
- 39:57Speaker 2: It starts out it did. It starts it out different
- 40:00Speaker 2: than what I remembered it. But then when it gets
- 40:02Speaker 2: to the main part, that's the part that I recognize. So,
- 40:05Speaker 2: you know, I think it's a good song. I kind
- 40:07Speaker 2: of think it's a banger. So let's move on and
- 40:09Speaker 2: see if Saturday Super Kate has a chance against it.
- 40:21Speaker 7: Saturday Super Kate, gass rap, we'll get your video for instagad. Yes,
- 40:27Speaker 7: Saturday Supercase Time and no one else can.
- 40:36Speaker 9: They got a Supercate Times.
- 40:43Speaker 14: Super k Time, that super.
- 40:49Speaker 2: That is Saturday Super Kate. Well, I have to say
- 40:52Speaker 2: I watched it. You know, it was obviously on Saturday mornings.
- 40:56Speaker 2: I probably watched it a few times. I was fascinated
- 40:58Speaker 2: with video games as a cad. This head Donkey Kong
- 41:02Speaker 2: and Cubert and Mario and maybe the centipede in it
- 41:06Speaker 2: or something like that. And the song's a lot more
- 41:08Speaker 2: fun than what I remembered it being so nineties. Dave,
- 41:14Speaker 2: what are your thoughts.
- 41:15Speaker 4: Us for the first time today, I'm just gonna say
- 41:18Speaker 4: this kind of sucks.
- 41:19Speaker 3: I don't. I don't enjoy this at all.
- 41:23Speaker 4: Sounds like a bad sounds like a bad video game.
- 41:25Speaker 4: And again, the guy singing it sounds like a failed
- 41:28Speaker 4: lounge singer. I don't know where they found him. He
- 41:30Speaker 4: just trying to make ends meet because his band's not
- 41:32Speaker 4: working or something. It's not It's just not good.
- 41:36Speaker 3: I don't. I don't like it at all. So to
- 41:38Speaker 3: tip my hand on the vote today, I have nothing
- 41:40Speaker 3: else to say about this.
- 41:41Speaker 2: So, Lindsey, I actually kind of liked it.
- 41:45Speaker 1: I never even heard of Saturday Super K, so I don't.
- 41:50Speaker 2: You don't have any of the styles.
- 41:51Speaker 1: I got nothing on that, but I kind of thought
- 41:53Speaker 1: it was catchy. It makes me stop and really think,
- 41:56Speaker 1: Like to compare the two.
- 41:58Speaker 2: It sounds very eighty still, which is what our shows
- 42:03Speaker 2: all about. So you know, bonus points for that. Deaf
- 42:06Speaker 2: Dave thoughts.
- 42:08Speaker 3: I remember this show being on the air, but I
- 42:11Speaker 3: never watched it for a couple of reasons. Number One,
- 42:14Speaker 3: I am the world's worst video gamer and always have been.
- 42:18Speaker 3: I was the prime age, living in that mal Arcade generation,
- 42:23Speaker 3: that whole era that was. That was my scene where
- 42:25Speaker 3: I hung out. But I was terrible at playing all
- 42:28Speaker 3: the games, and so I did not enjoy that part
- 42:31Speaker 3: of it. And I think this must have also been
- 42:33Speaker 3: opposite of some other cartoons. I was more interested in,
- 42:36Speaker 3: like Super Friends or Spider Man and his Amazing Friends
- 42:40Speaker 3: or something like that, so I didn't see the show.
- 42:43Speaker 3: The song is fine. I mean, it's it's perfectly competent
- 42:51Speaker 3: kitty pop. I suppose to David's point, though, I think
- 42:56Speaker 3: I wonder how this song could have been improved. They
- 42:58Speaker 3: have simply rendered it and like eight bit music and
- 43:00Speaker 3: made it actually sound like a video game.
- 43:02Speaker 2: That might have been kind of neat. I like that idea,
- 43:06Speaker 2: Rob thoughts.
- 43:08Speaker 5: I I appreciated it before I appreciate it what it is,
- 43:14Speaker 5: as it captured the eighties really well. I think because
- 43:16Speaker 5: it does sound like a video game. When it starts,
- 43:18Speaker 5: it sounds like a video game. I think that's what
- 43:20Speaker 5: it was meant to do. What I read about this, though,
- 43:24Speaker 5: I thought it was interesting. It aired I'm gonna I'm
- 43:26Speaker 5: gonna mix up the channels, but it aired on the
- 43:31Speaker 5: like I say, CBS, and this show didn't feature pac
- 43:35Speaker 5: Man because it it aired on CBS and pac Man
- 43:40Speaker 5: was owned by like ABC or something like that, and
- 43:43Speaker 5: so I thought that was a really interesting fact that
- 43:47Speaker 5: of all the video games of the decade, pac Man's
- 43:49Speaker 5: your biggest that's your biggest one, and it didn't even
- 43:53Speaker 5: feature the biggest, biggest one. But the guys that composed it,
- 43:56Speaker 5: they're gonna come up later. Their name is like it's
- 43:59Speaker 5: Shooky Levy and Hams Saban and they did Inspector Gadget,
- 44:03Speaker 5: he Man in The Master of the Universe, Mask and
- 44:06Speaker 5: Power Rangers in the nineties. So the people who did
- 44:09Speaker 5: this song, they're no slouch. There's a big production crip.
- 44:12Speaker 2: Wow. Well, I will say that pac Man was in
- 44:15Speaker 2: the last bracket that we did. It did have its
- 44:17Speaker 2: own cartoon. I think it was on ABC. As you mentioned,
- 44:21Speaker 2: it sounded certainly video gamish for sure, and Inspector Gadget
- 44:27Speaker 2: was also in the last bracket as well. So these
- 44:32Speaker 2: fellas have been featured twice already, and obviously you mentioned
- 44:37Speaker 2: mass so it'll be featured again later. I think I
- 44:39Speaker 2: know which way this vote's going, but we'll go in
- 44:42Speaker 2: reverse order.
- 44:43Speaker 5: Rob, what's your vote, Oh, Rescue Rangers all day long?
- 44:46Speaker 2: And def Dave, what's your vote? Rescued Rangers easily nineties Dave?
- 44:58Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, before I vote, Jim, you must have had
- 45:01Speaker 4: a sideboard with rub because he put in a lot
- 45:03Speaker 4: of research.
- 45:04Speaker 3: I was not given that memo.
- 45:07Speaker 4: Obviously it's gonna be Rescue Rangers. I think he's just
- 45:09Speaker 4: trying to make me look dumb today. I mean, he
- 45:11Speaker 4: might be succeeding, but he's just he's so well informed
- 45:14Speaker 4: on cartoons today.
- 45:15Speaker 5: I don't see our last episode that we recorded. Dave
- 45:19Speaker 5: and Kurt show up with knowledge that of ancient tapestries
- 45:25Speaker 5: and crap, and I came with nothing. So this is payback.
- 45:30Speaker 3: There you go, there you go.
- 45:32Speaker 2: I'm loving it. Lindsay, Yeah, I mean it's a FOURGNE
- 45:35Speaker 2: conclusion the vote. You know, Chippindale is gonna advance. But
- 45:38Speaker 2: do you want to give Saturday Super K a pity vote?
- 45:42Speaker 1: Rescue Rangers?
- 45:43Speaker 5: All right?
- 45:44Speaker 2: Yeah? I like the Saturday Super K, but I mean
- 45:46Speaker 2: Rescue Rangers. It's it's one of the more iconic ones.
- 45:50Speaker 2: So that's the winner for me. So we're going to
- 45:53Speaker 2: close off this top half of the bracket here with
- 45:56Speaker 2: our five seed care Bears versus our twelve seed Panther
- 46:00Speaker 2: and Sons. So here is care Bears. That was short.
- 46:34Speaker 2: Lindsey thought.
- 46:35Speaker 1: I did watch care Bears, but that was a load
- 46:37Speaker 1: of crap. I can't come up with any redeeming quality.
- 46:46Speaker 2: Is this bear crap? What do you have against bears?
- 46:48Speaker 5: You've got some un healed trauma of bears, salted bear.
- 46:55Speaker 2: I'm a little upset that this was a five seed
- 46:57Speaker 2: because somebody did vote for it, and so that's the
- 47:02Speaker 2: only reason why it's a five seed. Otherwise I probably,
- 47:04Speaker 2: you know, the matchups would have changed a little bit.
- 47:07Speaker 2: Care Bears would have probably been you know, maybe where.
- 47:11Speaker 3: Uh Berenstein, Yes, maybe where a Berenstein Bears was. Yes,
- 47:18Speaker 3: you should have had a bear swap, is what you
- 47:20Speaker 3: should add?
- 47:20Speaker 2: Well, yeah, we should have done a bear swap?
- 47:24Speaker 5: Did we do?
- 47:25Speaker 2: Gummy? Was gummy Bears in the last one?
- 47:27Speaker 5: I feel like it was man Commy bear could have been.
- 47:34Speaker 2: In these first two brackets here.
- 47:36Speaker 1: I don't hate old Bears because I love gummy bears.
- 47:38Speaker 2: Right, You just think care Bears and Bearenstein Bears have
- 47:41Speaker 2: a bunch of bear craft. So uh nineties, Dave, We'll
- 47:46Speaker 2: go with your thoughts. Next. You and Lindsay seem to
- 47:48Speaker 2: be having the strongest opinions today, so well, I go
- 47:51Speaker 2: back it back.
- 47:52Speaker 4: I would have liked to see this Berenstein, Berenstein, whatever
- 47:55Speaker 4: you want to be. It's it's better than care Bears.
- 47:58Speaker 4: That being said, I do remember this. It has it
- 48:01Speaker 4: has a nostalgia to me because my sister watched this show,
- 48:03Speaker 4: so I heard in the background. So at least it
- 48:06Speaker 4: stirs some corn of some sort of memory for me,
- 48:10Speaker 4: and so I can give it a I'll give it
- 48:12Speaker 4: two points for that. She said had no redeemable qualities.
- 48:14Speaker 4: I'll give it that as its redeemable quality. It does
- 48:17Speaker 4: feel like a rush job, like I think the songwriters
- 48:19Speaker 4: could have put a little more effort in.
- 48:20Speaker 2: But that's okay, Yeah, I mean thirty seconds less than
- 48:24Speaker 2: thirty seconds? And can you come on, rob thoughts?
- 48:28Speaker 5: Uh, I'm kind of Dave on this one. I recall
- 48:31Speaker 5: this show. Caremeraters were a big deal in our house
- 48:33Speaker 5: growing up. You know, my sister had him, and.
- 48:37Speaker 3: So I.
- 48:40Speaker 5: That part stirs up something for me. What I did
- 48:42Speaker 5: find out I thought some of you will find this interesting,
- 48:45Speaker 5: is the guy that composed His name is John Sebastian.
- 48:48Speaker 5: He was the founder of a rock group in the
- 48:51Speaker 5: sixties called The Love and Spoonful Wow, and they sung
- 48:55Speaker 5: the song do You Believe In Magic? And they did
- 48:57Speaker 5: the theme song to Welcome Back Cotter.
- 48:59Speaker 3: I was.
- 49:01Speaker 2: When I'm not making this up when he said John Sebastian,
- 49:05Speaker 2: the first thing that popped in my head was Welcome
- 49:07Speaker 2: Back Contra.
- 49:08Speaker 5: This song also has some provenance as who made it,
- 49:11Speaker 5: so I thought that's kind of called.
- 49:12Speaker 3: By the time he got the care Beers, he forgot
- 49:14Speaker 3: how to make good music.
- 49:15Speaker 5: I guess your things are rough in eighty five for
- 49:18Speaker 5: this guy, right, he was looking for me plans, garden,
- 49:22Speaker 5: I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do anything.
- 49:27Speaker 2: Definitely, what your thoughts on the care Bearers themes?
- 49:31Speaker 5: So?
- 49:31Speaker 3: I think the care Bearers were on TV when I
- 49:33Speaker 3: was watching cartoons. Obviously, never a show that I would
- 49:37Speaker 3: have chosen, that I ever chose to watch. My brother
- 49:41Speaker 3: and I growing up Christmas is in the eighties. We
- 49:44Speaker 3: would get up early and we have our own Christmas
- 49:46Speaker 3: at our house, and then we'd pack up and drive
- 49:48Speaker 3: about an hour north and spend the rest of Christmas
- 49:51Speaker 3: Day with our cousins and they were both girls and
- 49:57Speaker 3: just a little bit younger than us, And so because
- 49:59Speaker 3: of that experience, every year Christmas time, I was able
- 50:03Speaker 3: to kind of track what the girl toys were through
- 50:06Speaker 3: throughout the decade. As we were going up with all
- 50:07Speaker 3: the cool stuff, I got to see what the girls
- 50:10Speaker 3: were kind of left with to get excited about. And
- 50:13Speaker 3: I always felt really sorry for girls having like the
- 50:17Speaker 3: lamest like Christmas things, and care Bears were definitely a
- 50:21Speaker 3: part of that pattern. I was like, oh, you know,
- 50:24Speaker 3: bless your heart, I'm gonna go over here and play
- 50:25Speaker 3: with my g I Joe's and Star Wars now, but
- 50:27Speaker 3: you have fun with your care Bears. This theme song
- 50:31Speaker 3: does absolutely nothing to change my mind about the care Bears.
- 50:35Speaker 2: Yeah, Cabres were a huge girls toy in the eighties
- 50:38Speaker 2: and then obviously cartoon and like Dave nineties, Dave said,
- 50:43Speaker 2: you know, my sisters did watch it, So it does
- 50:46Speaker 2: bring back that since a nostalgia.
- 50:49Speaker 7: You know.
- 50:50Speaker 2: I guess good for John Sebastian for getting paid again,
- 50:53Speaker 2: but this is kind of a piece of crap. So
- 50:57Speaker 2: it's going up against Pink pan Am Sons, which is
- 51:01Speaker 2: different than the original Pink Panther. But I think you
- 51:04Speaker 2: might hear some similarities here, Dady m.
- 51:23Speaker 11: Peggy just like a debt with the goddam say and
- 51:29Speaker 11: together with the Rain all the rain Gold pantad that.
- 51:38Speaker 2: Sons sons, all right, they have a pink panther and
- 51:47Speaker 2: sons are twelve seed, so we had there's always a
- 51:54Speaker 2: twelve five upset. Is this gonna be one of those cases?
- 51:57Speaker 3: Here?
- 51:58Speaker 2: Rob you Panther and Sun?
- 52:02Speaker 5: Nope? I never saw the show, never saw the original.
- 52:05Speaker 2: Pink Panther, but they were not probably seeing that.
- 52:08Speaker 5: No, well, I don't know. My Dad's a show like
- 52:10Speaker 5: a movie. My dad would have watched. I remember him
- 52:12Speaker 5: laughing at it, but it's I don't remember. I just
- 52:15Speaker 5: know the pink Panthers on all the insulation at home
- 52:18Speaker 5: depot un all like.
- 52:24Speaker 2: Nineties day.
- 52:24Speaker 5: What do you got?
- 52:27Speaker 4: I didn't watch this show. I liked the original Pink
- 52:31Speaker 4: Panther song. I don't like this remix. I don't really
- 52:35Speaker 4: even with the point of it was just use the
- 52:36Speaker 4: original song. I I don't like this song. So that's
- 52:40Speaker 4: pretty much the end of what I got.
- 52:41Speaker 1: So huh, lindsay I So the original Pink Panther is
- 52:46Speaker 1: one of my all time favorite cartoons. And anytime I
- 52:49Speaker 1: got to see it as a kid, it felt like
- 52:51Speaker 1: one of those things would be real sporadic, and so
- 52:54Speaker 1: I didn't know when it was going to be on,
- 52:56Speaker 1: but if I ever caught it, it felt like a
- 52:58Speaker 1: special treat. Pink Panther and sons. It should be banned.
- 53:07Speaker 1: It's horrendous.
- 53:09Speaker 2: Jeff Dave, what are your thoughts on Pink Panther in Suns?
- 53:13Speaker 3: I think I was aware this show existed, again, didn't
- 53:16Speaker 3: see it. I do remember watching the original, the quote
- 53:19Speaker 3: unquote original Pink Panther show. The movies came first, and
- 53:23Speaker 3: I was always confused when my dad introduced me to
- 53:25Speaker 3: the Pink Panther movies because I was like, where is
- 53:28Speaker 3: the Yeah, where is the pink jungle cat.
- 53:31Speaker 2: I'll see is some jewelry.
- 53:33Speaker 3: But anyway, Harry mentioned ey classic theme. I mean, it
- 53:38Speaker 3: is awesome. There are vestiges of it that can be
- 53:42Speaker 3: picked out in this theme song, and the question is
- 53:45Speaker 3: is it enough to save it? I agree with nineties Dave.
- 53:50Speaker 3: This is probably the worst version of the Pink Panther
- 53:52Speaker 3: theme that exists, but there's still a little bit there
- 53:56Speaker 3: and it's enough to remind me of the better version.
- 53:59Speaker 2: Of the song that I could be listening to. Would
- 54:02Speaker 2: it be better if it was walking with a Panther?
- 54:05Speaker 2: Of course?
- 54:06Speaker 3: All Little Cool Jay nineteen eighty nine, going back to Cali.
- 54:08Speaker 2: Absolutely, Yeah, I'm kind of with you guys. There's a
- 54:13Speaker 2: little bit there that gives me enough nostalgia from the
- 54:16Speaker 2: original Pink Panther, but the rest of it's kind of crap,
- 54:19Speaker 2: So I don't really know which way my vote's going.
- 54:22Speaker 1: We could just like both of them.
- 54:24Speaker 2: Yeah, we can wipe both of these out and move
- 54:26Speaker 2: Berenstain Bears into the winter.
- 54:29Speaker 5: There rackets.
- 54:32Speaker 2: No, that's not how brackets work, unfortunately, So lindsay, what's
- 54:37Speaker 2: your vote? Care Bears? Deef, Dave, what's your vote?
- 54:43Speaker 3: I am this is a week matchup. There's no real
- 54:47Speaker 3: winner here, but I'm going to go with Pink Panther in.
- 54:49Speaker 2: His hunts all right? Nineties Dave, what's your vote?
- 54:54Speaker 4: Myself and mister Carter are gonna go with the care
- 54:56Speaker 4: Bears because I just hate that remix.
- 54:58Speaker 2: Of pig Panther, Rob what panther?
- 55:03Speaker 5: Pink Panther? Man?
- 55:04Speaker 14: I like that.
- 55:05Speaker 5: I liked it. I thought it was good, had some
- 55:07Speaker 5: killer sacks in it. It was good. It. H I
- 55:09Speaker 5: didn't get tell you. It's done by the same guy
- 55:11Speaker 5: that did your laugh Olympics song, So there you go.
- 55:15Speaker 1: I like it.
- 55:16Speaker 5: I like this song. I think it was funny.
- 55:18Speaker 3: I did not.
- 55:19Speaker 2: I did not see this coming. I'm gonna go with
- 55:21Speaker 2: care Bears because I feel like we might get a
- 55:24Speaker 2: little bit more of female listenership if I move a
- 55:28Speaker 2: female song.
- 55:29Speaker 5: Jim Butler, that's your new name, andering, Jim Butler.
- 55:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I really neither one of them are gonna win
- 55:38Speaker 2: the next round, so it doesn't matter one way or
- 55:40Speaker 2: the other. Yeah, they were bad. Let's move to the
- 55:43Speaker 2: second half of the bracket, the bottom half of the bracket.
- 55:46Speaker 2: We've got a fun orange cat match up here with
- 55:50Speaker 2: our two fifteen matchup. We've got Garfield and Friends versus Heathcliff.
- 55:58Speaker 2: Heathcliff is our two seeds, so we will play that
- 56:00Speaker 2: one first.
- 56:09Speaker 6: No one should gerald by the labor but he just won't.
- 56:14Speaker 6: Beyond that, they breaks on everyone, all.
- 56:34Speaker 2: Right, That is Heathcliff. I gotta know Death Dave. I'll
- 56:38Speaker 2: start with you. I'm pretty sure you probably didn't watch Heathcliff.
- 56:41Speaker 3: But you know I.
- 56:44Speaker 2: Did not watch it.
- 56:44Speaker 3: I think it was an Afternoon Cartoon.
- 56:46Speaker 2: I was aware of it. I was aware of the
- 56:48Speaker 2: block those.
- 56:49Speaker 3: Cartoons in the in the late eighties, and I have
- 56:52Speaker 3: to say, you know, this song, it catches minds.
- 56:55Speaker 2: It is a little catchy.
- 56:56Speaker 3: You know, it's a bounced so uh, it's kind of
- 57:00Speaker 3: didn't really speaking kind of a thumbs up, Lindsey.
- 57:03Speaker 1: I loved Heathcliff and it was a cartoon that I watched,
- 57:07Speaker 1: and I think it's so catchy that tune, doesn't It
- 57:10Speaker 1: just kind of stick with you and it makes you
- 57:12Speaker 1: kind of want to bob your head around.
- 57:13Speaker 5: I think it's a good one, oh rob uh, Heathcliff,
- 57:19Speaker 5: I loved it. I was a latch key kid in
- 57:22Speaker 5: the summer and went to the babysitter a lot, and
- 57:24Speaker 5: this was a babysitter show. It was kind of a
- 57:27Speaker 5: we just gonna to me. It was always kind of
- 57:29Speaker 5: a Garfield knockoff, like a like a T moo Garfield,
- 57:33Speaker 5: so a T MoU Garfield. But I like this song
- 57:37Speaker 5: songs that this is good nineties Dave.
- 57:41Speaker 4: I didn't watch the cartoon a lot, but I would
- 57:43Speaker 4: stop for this song. The song goes this is this
- 57:47Speaker 4: is rightfully the number two seed in this bracket. So
- 57:50Speaker 4: this is just you can put this on the radio.
- 57:52Speaker 2: This is great.
- 57:53Speaker 3: So this is just one song strong words.
- 57:58Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't watch a whole lot of it, but
- 58:00Speaker 2: I agree like the songs. The song's fantastic. It obviously
- 58:04Speaker 2: it's a two seed that got you know, some votes
- 58:06Speaker 2: from analysts to to be up that high. So we
- 58:10Speaker 2: aren't the only ones that that seem to like it.
- 58:13Speaker 2: And it was an afternoon show.
- 58:15Speaker 4: I'd love to be the Heathcliff folks. They're like, hey,
- 58:17Speaker 4: we have this other orange cat cartoon. Can you just
- 58:20Speaker 4: throw something at us? Then they rolling with this and
- 58:22Speaker 4: the executives are like, what the hell did you do?
- 58:28Speaker 2: You could have said this for something better.
- 58:30Speaker 3: I just gonna say you could have wrote an actual
- 58:32Speaker 3: song with that.
- 58:34Speaker 2: All right? Here is its orange opponent Garfield.
- 58:39Speaker 5: Ladies and gentlemen, Garfield and Friends.
- 58:44Speaker 2: Friends to give you a.
- 58:51Speaker 1: To tell you abound? How can you swallow your prying?
- 59:04Speaker 3: Friends?
- 59:04Speaker 2: Are someone you enough?
- 59:06Speaker 3: Shoot?
- 59:09Speaker 2: All right? That was Garfield and Friend So lindsay you
- 59:13Speaker 2: are the resident lover of Garfield. Here, what are your thoughts?
- 59:19Speaker 2: Did you watch Garfield and Friends?
- 59:21Speaker 5: I did?
- 59:23Speaker 1: Okay, So Garfield and Friends. The first half of the show,
- 59:28Speaker 1: it was a more a traditional Garfield cartoon, so it
- 59:33Speaker 1: was Garfield Odie John doing the typical stuff around their house.
- 59:38Speaker 1: The second half of the episode was where the friends
- 59:42Speaker 1: come into play, and rarely it was Garfield. In that half,
- 59:46Speaker 1: it was like Barnyard Friends and they were at a
- 59:49Speaker 1: farm and all the different shenanigans that went on at
- 59:53Speaker 1: the farm. And I loved it. I've always watched Garfield
- 59:56Speaker 1: and Friends on Saturdays.
- 59:58Speaker 2: What what do you think of song?
- 1:00:03Speaker 5: I like it.
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: I like it.
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: It's maybe could have been a little bit better, but.
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: I think it serves its purpose all right, nineties Dave.
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: I don't.
- 1:00:15Speaker 4: I mean, the song's fine. It doesn't jump out to
- 1:00:17Speaker 4: me or anything. It's interesting. I like if Nancy Reagan
- 1:00:21Speaker 4: was in on writing this song which she got just
- 1:00:22Speaker 4: say No in their Friends take Care of You. I
- 1:00:25Speaker 4: mean they were just throwing like subliminal messages to kids
- 1:00:27Speaker 4: left and right through that song. But the other thing
- 1:00:29Speaker 4: I find interesting about this song is I don't know
- 1:00:31Speaker 4: if it knows what decade it's in. That doesn't sound
- 1:00:33Speaker 4: like the eighties Ring Dame, It's like the forties ors.
- 1:00:36Speaker 4: I don't know, I just don't know what tone the
- 1:00:38Speaker 4: composers were going for, but it definitely wasn't much of
- 1:00:40Speaker 4: an eighties vibe, and then it's not nearly as fun
- 1:00:43Speaker 4: as Heath Cliffs. So Garfield was probably the better cat
- 1:00:46Speaker 4: cartoon wise, but song wise, I don't know.
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: We'll have to see.
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think he's tap dancing if you could
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: see him.
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he is. I feel like the beginning
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: where you can hear the record play and he's like
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: friends or I feel like that was the beginning of
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: Shawshank Redemption, where Randy and Frame sitting outside the you know,
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: the wife house. So yeah, Rob, what do you what
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: are your thoughts? I'm a David.
- 1:01:12Speaker 5: I think it is kind of like almost like a
- 1:01:14Speaker 5: vaudeville style, you know song. I think they're trying to
- 1:01:17Speaker 5: maybe tap into like some old Muppets, you know, at
- 1:01:19Speaker 5: the beginning of the Muppets show, you know, where you
- 1:01:21Speaker 5: got everybody singing and it's uh. But some background on this.
- 1:01:27Speaker 5: It was composed by two people that were known for
- 1:01:31Speaker 5: They were kind of the catalyst for the Peanuts episodes
- 1:01:36Speaker 5: or the specials, and so you can kind of hear
- 1:01:39Speaker 5: that in some of the some of the shows and
- 1:01:42Speaker 5: some of the music they did, they would actually use.
- 1:01:44Speaker 5: They would recycle old Peanuts specials for the Garfield Prime
- 1:01:48Speaker 5: Time show. So so this this show also has some
- 1:01:53Speaker 5: pretty impressive historical provenance.
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: Rob bringing the noise today The Quiet Storm does fit you,
- 1:02:06Speaker 2: Duff Dave thoughts.
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: I don't know what historical provenance means, but.
- 1:02:13Speaker 5: I don't either, Dave. I heard it head on the show.
- 1:02:16Speaker 5: I saw it on our antiques roadshow.
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: I'm just here to talk about cartoons. Uh So, I
- 1:02:25Speaker 3: want to echo what other folks have said. Garfield the
- 1:02:27Speaker 3: better character, I think generally wider, appreciated, more beloved. The
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: Congress tripts genuinely funny. I think I probably had some
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: of the books that collected them. I think if you're
- 1:02:40Speaker 3: coming down to the character, coming down to the show,
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: I think Garfield wins. But when you're judging the songs,
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: it's they they're doing themselves a lot of disservice here.
- 1:02:51Speaker 3: The Yeah, it's opening with like some forties krooner, It's
- 1:02:54Speaker 3: an immediate snoozefest. The rest of the song has to
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: work really hard to try to make up ground just
- 1:02:59Speaker 3: off that particular opening. So less impressed with the song.
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: I wonder what which way Dave's vote's going. I agree
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: with everything you guys said. Garfield is the much better character.
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: But this isn't a vote on characters. This is a
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: vote on songs, and for me, Heathcliff gets my vote.
- 1:03:22Speaker 3: Wait a minute, was that voting?
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: You are now okay?
- 1:03:27Speaker 3: Heathcliffe opens with some turntable scratching.
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: That is all I need to know. You had me
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: at Hello.
- 1:03:33Speaker 3: My vote is for Heathcliffe nineties, Dave, I think well
- 1:03:37Speaker 3: for your if we're doing Jerry McGuire, I was also
- 1:03:39Speaker 3: had a Hello. So Heathcliffe wins in a runaway.
- 1:03:42Speaker 2: It's just.
- 1:03:44Speaker 5: Rob Man.
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: This is tough because I think both of them have.
- 1:03:49Speaker 3: It's not to, it's coming trying to. We don't need
- 1:03:52Speaker 3: ex you give it a play.
- 1:03:54Speaker 5: I think the Strictly song basis Heathcliffe song is is
- 1:03:58Speaker 5: way better, way better.
- 1:04:01Speaker 3: Linz, that's not close, Rob.
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: I like the Heathcliff song is good, but there's something
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: about Garfield. I don't think I could ever vote against Garfield.
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: So you can give it a vote. It's not gonna advance,
- 1:04:15Speaker 2: but you can give Garfield a vote. If it's a
- 1:04:18Speaker 2: it's a sympathy vote. Lindsay Garfield.
- 1:04:20Speaker 3: If it helps your conscience, we'd rather just have the
- 1:04:23Speaker 3: lasagna than the vote. He probably really doesn't even care
- 1:04:25Speaker 3: about this, knowing Karen, that's I'm good right now. Yeah,
- 1:04:30Speaker 3: I could go first.
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: It actually does, all right. Moving on to our next
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: match up, it's our seven to ten matchup. We have
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: Yogi Bear from nineteen eighty eight versus my Little Pony.
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: Here is Yogi Bear, Yilkey Bear, smarter garbage, Yogi.
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: Bears range.
- 1:04:57Speaker 9: Stuf.
- 1:05:01Speaker 2: All right, who does a Yogi personation? Dave, you're the
- 1:05:04Speaker 2: master of impersonation. You can do Yogi Bear.
- 1:05:07Speaker 3: I can't. Yogi's not want to. It's not in my
- 1:05:08Speaker 3: rip as a while.
- 1:05:11Speaker 2: All right, If you're not gonna do a Yogi Bear impersonation,
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: then I need you to talk about Yogi Bear, the
- 1:05:15Speaker 2: cartoon or the theme song as Mark Wahlberg would.
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: Oh boy, okay, you wouldn't like this show either, So no,
- 1:05:24Speaker 3: I don't.
- 1:05:26Speaker 4: I didn't watch Yogi Bear, but I need to so
- 1:05:28Speaker 4: I me know what he is, the picnic basket thing
- 1:05:29Speaker 4: and all that, But I don't.
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: I like this song.
- 1:05:32Speaker 4: The horn section is really good in this so I
- 1:05:35Speaker 4: think it's too long, you know, Mark, Mark would agree
- 1:05:38Speaker 4: with me on that, and so what his brother Donny Solannie.
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: Deaf Dave, what are your thoughts?
- 1:05:47Speaker 3: I do have nostalgia for Yogi Bear character, and I
- 1:05:50Speaker 3: grew up watching Yogi Bear cartoons. I did not grow
- 1:05:53Speaker 3: up watching this particular nineteen eighty eight series, but I
- 1:05:58Speaker 3: know the character, I know the premise, and from what
- 1:06:00Speaker 3: I'm hearing of the song, this series must have stuck
- 1:06:03Speaker 3: to that formula pretty well. Interesting choice again for the music,
- 1:06:08Speaker 3: to me, it's another throwback. It's it sounds like forties,
- 1:06:12Speaker 3: like Andrew Sisters. It sounds like the boogie Woogie Boy
- 1:06:15Speaker 3: Bugle Boy of Company B to me, so interesting. Don't
- 1:06:21Speaker 3: know how much kids in nineteen eighty eight loved it,
- 1:06:24Speaker 3: but but yeah, there's a little bit of nostalgic factor
- 1:06:27Speaker 3: here for me and Yogi. And I believe he competed
- 1:06:30Speaker 3: in the laugh Olympics.
- 1:06:31Speaker 2: He did, he was he was the team captain of
- 1:06:34Speaker 2: the Yogi Yahooies.
- 1:06:36Speaker 3: Uh.
- 1:06:37Speaker 2: Rob seemed Rob seemed to be a green a little
- 1:06:40Speaker 2: bit with what Dave was saying. So Rob, will, what
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: are your thounds?
- 1:06:44Speaker 3: Well?
- 1:06:44Speaker 5: And it's interesting because Deth they've put in my notes,
- 1:06:47Speaker 5: but I just put classic fifties sixties sound. I think
- 1:06:50Speaker 5: they were trying to tap into the first run of
- 1:06:53Speaker 5: Yogi Baron, trying to bring it back, you know, recapturing
- 1:06:57Speaker 5: that classic sound. Uh, but not a show I ever watched.
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: And but I like this song.
- 1:07:03Speaker 5: I mean, I don't hate it.
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: Lindsay, Yeah, I like this song.
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: I think it's cute, got a good little ring to it.
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: I watched I guess the original Yogi those cartoons. I
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: didn't remember that Yogi came back in the late eighties.
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: But yeah, it's a good one.
- 1:07:21Speaker 2: Yeah, I like the Yogi Bear from the Laugh Olympics.
- 1:07:24Speaker 2: I don't know so much about this one. I probably
- 1:07:27Speaker 2: did not watch this, but but yeah, it's a fun
- 1:07:30Speaker 2: it's a fun song. Let's see if it's opponent the
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: ten Seed. My Little Pony is just as fun nineties days.
- 1:07:59Speaker 2: You were kind of in your head to that one,
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: so I need to no longer. I'm assuming this was
- 1:08:05Speaker 2: somewhat nostalgic for you with having a sister.
- 1:08:08Speaker 3: So I don't know.
- 1:08:10Speaker 4: I might be bad memory, but I feel like they
- 1:08:13Speaker 4: took that chorus from the commercial and just maybe expanded
- 1:08:15Speaker 4: it for the cartoon, because I remember that my Little
- 1:08:17Speaker 4: Bony from the commercial, but there weren't other lyrics. It
- 1:08:20Speaker 4: was just that music in that So I remember it
- 1:08:23Speaker 4: probably more from the commercials because my sistride a bunch
- 1:08:25Speaker 4: of these toys. I know the cartoon was on, but
- 1:08:28Speaker 4: I didn't obviously spend any time of it, so but
- 1:08:32Speaker 4: I remember that chorus quite a bit, so definitely nostalgic
- 1:08:36Speaker 4: in that way good.
- 1:08:37Speaker 3: I don't know if it's good. I just know it's nostalgic.
- 1:08:39Speaker 2: So when I first started listening to your show, you
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: were saying a lot of things that I was like,
- 1:08:47Speaker 2: that's exactly how I think, or that's exactly how I feel,
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: And you nailed it here with this one, because yes,
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: as I was listening to that, I'm like, this is
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: this song is iconic because of the commercial. We saw
- 1:08:59Speaker 2: the com mars probably three times a day for a
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: couple of years, and so that's where this sticks out.
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: Is it as fun as Yogi Bear?
- 1:09:10Speaker 3: No think so.
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: But I think it's more iconic because of the commercial.
- 1:09:18Speaker 2: So it's gonna be a tough vote for me. It
- 1:09:20Speaker 2: may not be a tough vote for the rest of
- 1:09:21Speaker 2: you all, and I understand that. But uh, moving over
- 1:09:25Speaker 2: to our resident female Lindsey.
- 1:09:29Speaker 3: What are your ever?
- 1:09:30Speaker 4: Do you guys ever invite like two other females on
- 1:09:33Speaker 4: and just make Jim the isolated one and love to.
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: Please if you know of a female podcaster or send
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: her my way, So I would love to do that.
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: I don't have anything really nice to say about My
- 1:09:47Speaker 1: Little Pony. I don't think I have anything peerie to
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: say about it. You know, well I didn't watch it.
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: I'm yeah, I don't know.
- 1:09:56Speaker 5: It's not good rob Oh you gonna My Little Pony?
- 1:10:01Speaker 5: So it was composed by the same team that gave
- 1:10:05Speaker 5: us G I. Joe a real American hero and the
- 1:10:08Speaker 5: Cabbage Patch Kids song. So I thought that was cool.
- 1:10:11Speaker 5: But I also think you guys bring up a good point.
- 1:10:12Speaker 5: We have to remember that a lot of these shows
- 1:10:15Speaker 5: My Little Pony, g I. Joe, Transformers Mask, a lot
- 1:10:20Speaker 5: of those were toys before they were ever cartoons. It
- 1:10:23Speaker 5: was the reverse. So a lot of times these cartoons
- 1:10:26Speaker 5: were thirty minute commercials for the toy. So Pound Puppies
- 1:10:31Speaker 5: is another one that did that. So anyway, Uh, yeah,
- 1:10:34Speaker 5: I don't know. This is a meh for me. This
- 1:10:37Speaker 5: this song is that it's too uh it's two. I
- 1:10:41Speaker 5: don't know it's too mushy and gurley pre description.
- 1:10:45Speaker 3: Rob throwing out the two gurly really panders to the happening.
- 1:10:51Speaker 2: I know.
- 1:10:53Speaker 5: I'm anti pandering today and don't care.
- 1:10:55Speaker 2: Uh deaf Dave, what are your thoughts? I think I
- 1:10:58Speaker 2: know your thoughts would go ahead.
- 1:11:01Speaker 3: So jim uh, you have my phone number. If I
- 1:11:06Speaker 3: ever say anything nice about my little Pony. I want
- 1:11:12Speaker 3: you to reach out and check on me because it's
- 1:11:16Speaker 3: it's probably a call for help. I need you to
- 1:11:20Speaker 3: call in a wellness check, make sure I'm okay. The
- 1:11:26Speaker 3: My Little Pony figures they did smell nice, so they
- 1:11:29Speaker 3: had that going for them. Have my sister like twenty
- 1:11:31Speaker 3: of those things.
- 1:11:32Speaker 5: And apparently there's a whole new subculture now of grown
- 1:11:35Speaker 5: men that are into my little Pony. It's a thing.
- 1:11:40Speaker 5: Google it. I'm not making it up.
- 1:11:43Speaker 2: It sounds me.
- 1:11:44Speaker 5: I'm sure I'm not making that up. No, it's a
- 1:11:47Speaker 5: whole subculture of grown men that get together and they
- 1:11:52Speaker 5: talk about my little Pony. Google it, you'll get it.
- 1:11:55Speaker 5: It's yep.
- 1:11:57Speaker 2: Rob, I believe you. I don't think you're coming on here.
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: You're lying, but you have to admit it does sound
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: made up.
- 1:12:04Speaker 5: It does sound does absolutely sounds made up.
- 1:12:07Speaker 3: I have heard of this before. These are like grown
- 1:12:10Speaker 3: straight men that love my little pony. They're called Bronie's Broni.
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: That's it.
- 1:12:14Speaker 3: It was just googling it. It's called Broni. There's a
- 1:12:16Speaker 3: whole culture it's like this. It's like a subset of furries.
- 1:12:21Speaker 3: So it's you say, realm that you.
- 1:12:22Speaker 5: Do not want to explore it, Brony's. That's right.
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: It sounds it sounds very strange to me.
- 1:12:28Speaker 5: Anyway.
- 1:12:29Speaker 2: All right, let's get to the vote.
- 1:12:32Speaker 3: Lindsey.
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: I think I need to stay as far away from
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: my little pony as I can get, so I'm gonna
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: go with Yogi Bear.
- 1:12:40Speaker 2: Yeah, Rob may have ruined my vote on that one.
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: I was thinking about going my Little Pony because the
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: iconicness of it, but I don't know that I can
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: now Rob. What's your vote? Yogi nineties? Dave, what's your vote?
- 1:12:56Speaker 3: Well, we're gonna lose the Broni listening audience over this,
- 1:13:00Speaker 3: but I'm gonna go Yogi Bear as well.
- 1:13:02Speaker 2: Daf Dave, I'm pretty sure you're going Yogi. If I've
- 1:13:04Speaker 2: got to do a wellness check on you, You're not
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: You're not picking my little pony.
- 1:13:09Speaker 3: Well, Jim, you're smarter than the average bear. I was
- 1:13:14Speaker 3: gonna say, I think we found a bear that Lizzie
- 1:13:16Speaker 3: didn't think was crap.
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: I am also gonna go with Yogi. So Yogi moves on.
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: Our seven seed beat our ten seed. Now we get
- 1:13:27Speaker 2: to a fun match up our number three seed versus
- 1:13:30Speaker 2: our number fourteen seed. Our number three seed is Mask,
- 1:13:34Speaker 2: and our number fourteen seed is Mighty Mouse. The New
- 1:13:37Speaker 2: Adventures here is Mask. All right, that was Mask? Daft Dave.
- 1:14:09Speaker 2: I'll let you go first. You look pretty excited about
- 1:14:12Speaker 2: that song. Did you watch Mask?
- 1:14:14Speaker 3: I don't think I did. I was very aware of it. Again,
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: these were just missing me. I was just a little
- 1:14:19Speaker 3: too old. I know it was a Marvel production, and
- 1:14:22Speaker 3: I know that it's hitting. It's hitting all those same
- 1:14:27Speaker 3: boxes that G I, Joe and Transformers does. This is
- 1:14:29Speaker 3: a show that I would have absolutely loved if I
- 1:14:32Speaker 3: had been just a couple of years younger. But I
- 1:14:35Speaker 3: have to say this song pretty much jams. It's rocking hard.
- 1:14:38Speaker 3: They could go on the radio, this one, this one
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: could guess when we could go on the radio.
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: I think this is another one of those where the
- 1:14:44Speaker 2: cartoon came after the toys, so it was like a
- 1:14:46Speaker 2: thirty minute commercial for the toys nineties. Dave a, did
- 1:14:51Speaker 2: you have the toys? And b I know you watch this,
- 1:14:54Speaker 2: So yes, I had the toys.
- 1:14:57Speaker 3: I had the s ten or the wait.
- 1:15:00Speaker 4: I heard that the gun turret came out of the back.
- 1:15:02Speaker 4: I had the Camaro. I had a little helicopter thing.
- 1:15:04Speaker 4: I don't know anyway, point is is this song, Like
- 1:15:07Speaker 4: def Dave said, this is a rock song. This is awesome.
- 1:15:09Speaker 4: Every kid who was boy, particularly was seven to eleven.
- 1:15:12Speaker 4: Not saying girls couldn't have watched this. I'm sure they did,
- 1:15:15Speaker 4: but every one of us that was seven to eleven
- 1:15:17Speaker 4: in the period that this was on, this was this
- 1:15:19Speaker 4: was it.
- 1:15:20Speaker 3: This was one of those shows.
- 1:15:21Speaker 4: I got my toys out and sat in front of
- 1:15:23Speaker 4: the TV with them and followed Tracker and all the
- 1:15:26Speaker 4: other guys while they were doing the show, and I
- 1:15:29Speaker 4: was pretending to do it along with them.
- 1:15:31Speaker 3: So this song, this song rips. It's awesome.
- 1:15:34Speaker 5: Rob, Yeah, this is the show I watched. I had
- 1:15:38Speaker 5: I had the Dave talks about having like the castle
- 1:15:41Speaker 5: gray Skull that being like his you know, pinnacle toy
- 1:15:45Speaker 5: that he had but one I had was a was
- 1:15:47Speaker 5: a mask. It was called Rhino. It was a It
- 1:15:49Speaker 5: was a semi and it pulled apart and it had
- 1:15:53Speaker 5: a rocket launcher in the back and the little rear
- 1:15:55Speaker 5: enturned into a little car. It was that was to
- 1:15:57Speaker 5: this day, I was the best toy I ever got.
- 1:16:00Speaker 5: Killer anyway, And then yeah, this song to me, this
- 1:16:03Speaker 5: is this is a standalone track. I found one quote
- 1:16:08Speaker 5: it said this song this theme is widely considered one
- 1:16:11Speaker 5: of the mount Rushmore tracks of Saturday Morning cartoons, right
- 1:16:15Speaker 5: up there with Transformers and ThunderCats. I agree with that statement. Wow,
- 1:16:21Speaker 5: And there's actually an extended version. It's a three minute
- 1:16:23Speaker 5: long version, so that there is actually there's actually a
- 1:16:27Speaker 5: full song. It's an actual song.
- 1:16:29Speaker 4: I don't know if I want three minutes words, but
- 1:16:30Speaker 4: I like the one minute damn that I gets there.
- 1:16:34Speaker 5: There's got additional verses. It's got a blistering guitar solo.
- 1:16:37Speaker 5: I mean, it's killer Man, all right.
- 1:16:40Speaker 2: Uh, Lindsey, I know that you had never heard a
- 1:16:42Speaker 2: Mask before we met. Uh, so you didn't watch the show,
- 1:16:45Speaker 2: But what did you think of the song?
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: I kind of like the song. It's got a catchy tune.
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: Some good lyrics and then halfway do they kick it
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: up a notch and I like that. And it's got
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: the in the background, a lot going on, but it.
- 1:17:01Speaker 2: Yeah. So I watched Mask with my brother. He was
- 1:17:06Speaker 2: the first one. He was actually younger than me, he
- 1:17:08Speaker 2: was he was nineties days age, but he, uh, he
- 1:17:13Speaker 2: turned me on to Mask before I even knew what
- 1:17:14Speaker 2: it was, and so I liked it too. He had
- 1:17:17Speaker 2: more of the toys, but man, we would sit in
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: front of the TV and just watch this over and
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: over and over again. It was really was like one
- 1:17:23Speaker 2: of the coolest cartoons. And just this theme song is
- 1:17:27Speaker 2: a banger. And I hate the fact that it's in
- 1:17:31Speaker 2: the same half as Heathcliff and also in the same
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: total bracket as Duct Tails, because we're gonna lose two
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: fantastic songs eventually.
- 1:17:42Speaker 5: You think this song, you think Heathcliffe has a chance
- 1:17:45Speaker 5: against Mask.
- 1:17:47Speaker 2: I think Heathcliffe is a great song.
- 1:17:49Speaker 3: Okay, so I you know, give it away.
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if it's going to be better
- 1:17:56Speaker 2: than Mask or not, but I do know that both
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: of them are fantastic song and it's a shame one
- 1:18:00Speaker 2: of them is not gonna make it to our next episode.
- 1:18:03Speaker 5: I'll pretend to big excite all right.
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: So here is the fourteen seed Mighty Mouse, which sounds
- 1:18:08Speaker 2: like it has no chance whatsoever.
- 1:18:11Speaker 14: Soon zoom soon zoon boom boom boom boom boom boom boo.
- 1:18:15Speaker 10: Commos that Mighty Mouse coming to mend with the foe.
- 1:18:19Speaker 10: We had a mighty floor, So don't be afraid anymore,
- 1:18:24Speaker 10: custing swady before I come to save the day.
- 1:18:31Speaker 5: Thank goodness, Mighty Mouse.
- 1:18:32Speaker 3: Is on his way.
- 1:18:34Speaker 2: I feel like that's something that they probably sing on
- 1:18:37Speaker 2: Main Street at Disney with the barbershop quartet. Lindsay, I'll
- 1:18:41Speaker 2: let you go first. What do you think about the
- 1:18:42Speaker 2: New Adventures of Mighty Mouse?
- 1:18:44Speaker 3: I love it?
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: So I watched the original Mighty Mouse or Wars Wars.
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: It always makes me laugh.
- 1:18:50Speaker 3: I love that.
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: How could you not just smile when you hear that?
- 1:18:56Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 1:18:56Speaker 2: Well, it's a good one. Jeff Dave's got a big
- 1:18:58Speaker 2: old smile on his face. Off to him next.
- 1:19:02Speaker 3: Uh, So you know this about me, Jim, I have
- 1:19:06Speaker 3: a tremendous weakness for a cappella harmony music. I grew
- 1:19:12Speaker 3: up in a household. My dad was bass singer in
- 1:19:15Speaker 3: a quartet, So I was kind of raised on this stuff.
- 1:19:18Speaker 3: It's hit me right in the veins, and this ties
- 1:19:20Speaker 3: it into my obsession with the Beast Boys, anything with harmony,
- 1:19:24Speaker 3: ething with complex vocal arrangements. I am hooked, I'm in,
- 1:19:29Speaker 3: I'm on the front row this surprise. This is actually
- 1:19:33Speaker 3: by far the toughest matchup in the entire bracket for.
- 1:19:37Speaker 5: Me, rob I can respect it for what it is,
- 1:19:42Speaker 5: that it's got some musical chops. It's it's but for
- 1:19:48Speaker 5: me the two things that I found in my notes
- 1:19:50Speaker 5: that I really like. It was produced by this guy
- 1:19:52Speaker 5: named Andrew Oldham, and he was the original producer for
- 1:19:55Speaker 5: The Rolling Stone, So it's got some hoom f there.
- 1:19:58Speaker 3: But for me.
- 1:20:00Speaker 5: The Andy Kaufman skit, I hear it at the minute
- 1:20:06Speaker 5: I heard this song. It was the first time ever
- 1:20:09Speaker 5: heard the song. Was Andy Kaufman doing out on Zion
- 1:20:11Speaker 5: Life And so yeah, David and I used to watch
- 1:20:15Speaker 5: like Comedy Center all the time in the summer and
- 1:20:17Speaker 5: they would replay old at snail Bits, and so this
- 1:20:21Speaker 5: is the first time I ever heard Mighty Mouse was
- 1:20:24Speaker 5: Andy Copman.
- 1:20:25Speaker 2: I am so glad that you brought that up, because
- 1:20:27Speaker 2: that was something that had popped into my head as
- 1:20:29Speaker 2: I was putting this song into the roadcaster this morning,
- 1:20:32Speaker 2: that it reminded me of Andy Kaufman. So I'm so
- 1:20:35Speaker 2: glad that you brought that up, ninety Stave, what are
- 1:20:37Speaker 2: your thoughts?
- 1:20:38Speaker 4: Yep, he watched this. Kaufman made it funny. The only
- 1:20:42Speaker 4: other time I remember it is in Scrubs Ted's band.
- 1:20:46Speaker 4: They did a rendition of it the Blanks. They were
- 1:20:49Speaker 4: walking around the hospital because they were seeing old cartoon
- 1:20:52Speaker 4: theme songs that episode, so Mighty Mouse jumped up. But
- 1:20:55Speaker 4: other than those two things, like, it's a solid song
- 1:20:58Speaker 4: and it's got nostalgia I'm sure for people, I remember
- 1:21:01Speaker 4: it mostly from the Kaufman and the Scrub situation, not
- 1:21:04Speaker 4: from the other thing. But yeah, it's it's a memorable
- 1:21:09Speaker 4: nostalgic song.
- 1:21:10Speaker 3: But that's about it, all right.
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: I think it's a fantastic song. I'm bummed that it's
- 1:21:15Speaker 2: going up against Mask because my vote I have to vote,
- 1:21:20Speaker 2: and it's it's for Mask, because that's just a banger.
- 1:21:23Speaker 2: But I do think that Mighty Mouse is not a
- 1:21:25Speaker 2: weak opponent by any means.
- 1:21:29Speaker 4: It could have probably been higher than a fourteen seed
- 1:21:32Speaker 4: considering my Little Pony was a ten.
- 1:21:34Speaker 2: Yeah, it certainly should have been. If we can flit
- 1:21:38Speaker 2: those around, we've got We've got Mighty Mouse advancing for
- 1:21:41Speaker 2: sure against either of those two. I believe, def Dave.
- 1:21:44Speaker 2: What's your vote here?
- 1:21:47Speaker 3: Can I defer to the end?
- 1:21:48Speaker 2: I'd like to go last? Sure? Sure? Uh nineties Dave?
- 1:21:54Speaker 2: Then you you go no Mask all the way? That's
- 1:21:57Speaker 2: kind of what I thought.
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: Uh, Lindsey, fine with either one, but I think I'm
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: gonna go with Mighty Mouse.
- 1:22:03Speaker 2: All right, Rob Mask? Yeah, that's why I figured and
- 1:22:08Speaker 2: deaf Dave. So what do we have?
- 1:22:10Speaker 3: We had three to one Mask.
- 1:22:12Speaker 2: Yeah, Mask is advancing. There's nothing you can do about it.
- 1:22:14Speaker 2: No argument that you make can save it.
- 1:22:17Speaker 3: So the reason I wanted to go last is because
- 1:22:19Speaker 3: I was prepared to give Mighty Mouse my vote just
- 1:22:23Speaker 3: for having a piece of my heart with the alcapella
- 1:22:24Speaker 3: harmony music. I know that there's no competing with Masks,
- 1:22:30Speaker 3: and if if my vote were going to be a
- 1:22:32Speaker 3: deciding vote, it would definitely go to Mask. I am
- 1:22:35Speaker 3: happy that Mighty Mouse has a vote, so I'm content
- 1:22:39Speaker 3: with that, and I will still throw my support to Mask.
- 1:22:42Speaker 2: It just rocks so hard. You just you can't stop
- 1:22:45Speaker 2: it all right. Well, that leads us to our last
- 1:22:49Speaker 2: matchup of the first round, our six to eleven seed,
- 1:22:51Speaker 2: the new Scooby and Scrappy Do Show versus pone Puppies.
- 1:22:56Speaker 2: Scooby and Scrappy are the sixth seedc me do. I
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: just gotta say Scrappy Do was a punk. Oh wow,
- 1:23:31Speaker 2: I can't stand him. He is my least favorite cartoon
- 1:23:34Speaker 2: character of all time. I dislike him more than I
- 1:23:38Speaker 2: dislike Skeletor.
- 1:23:40Speaker 5: Wow, that's super fascinating. I didn't know that. I didn't
- 1:23:46Speaker 5: there's a lot of internet chatter about the dislike for
- 1:23:51Speaker 5: Scrappy Do. I didn't know that. I had no clue.
- 1:23:54Speaker 2: I have noticed that there is. But but my hatred
- 1:23:56Speaker 2: goes back to when I was eight or nine or
- 1:23:59Speaker 2: ten years old. I could stand them.
- 1:24:00Speaker 4: Well, they added they added Scrappy later because the original
- 1:24:04Speaker 4: obviously Scrappy wasn't there. But then in the eighties it
- 1:24:07Speaker 4: became like to kind of refresh the show because it
- 1:24:09Speaker 4: was a seventies show. They would throw on these little
- 1:24:12Speaker 4: extra characters that had no sense, Like in he Man,
- 1:24:15Speaker 4: there's this weird orange thing that flies around that's not
- 1:24:18Speaker 4: even in the he Man Universe, but they added it
- 1:24:21Speaker 4: to the cartoon because kids like extra little things that
- 1:24:24Speaker 4: tell snappy jokes and you know, YadA YadA. So that's
- 1:24:28Speaker 4: why they added Scrappy just for extra, you know, to
- 1:24:31Speaker 4: refresh the show a little bit.
- 1:24:32Speaker 5: Well, and on that I found a note that said
- 1:24:36Speaker 5: that as much as people hate Scrappy Do, he's kind
- 1:24:41Speaker 5: of credited for saving the series from being canceled in
- 1:24:45Speaker 5: the late seventies early eighties, And so I was like,
- 1:24:48Speaker 5: I did not know so much hate existed for I
- 1:24:50Speaker 5: kind of like them. I thought it was funny, but
- 1:24:52Speaker 5: people don't. Yeah, yeah, yeah, little man, a little little
- 1:24:57Speaker 5: tough man.
- 1:24:57Speaker 2: Exactly, Lindsey, what'd you think?
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: I mean, maybe it should have been canceled. I don't
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: see that Scrappy Do brought anything to the table. If
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: that's the best they had to try to save the show,
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: I think it just should have been canceled. The song
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: brings nothing.
- 1:25:15Speaker 5: They just say.
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: Scooby Doo over and over again.
- 1:25:19Speaker 5: It's Scooby doy do.
- 1:25:21Speaker 8: Yeah, do.
- 1:25:25Speaker 3: I feel like I'm in.
- 1:25:25Speaker 2: Cruising It's just deaf Dave.
- 1:25:30Speaker 3: So this has similarities to me with the Pink Panther
- 1:25:33Speaker 3: and the Sons theme in the sense that you take
- 1:25:36Speaker 3: one of the all time great theme songs and you
- 1:25:39Speaker 3: give us one of the absolute worst versions possible. So again,
- 1:25:44Speaker 3: there are vestiges of that Scooby Doo theme that are
- 1:25:48Speaker 3: still kind of hanging on here, and You're and I'm
- 1:25:51Speaker 3: just kind of desperately hanging on to them and hoping
- 1:25:53Speaker 3: that they're enough to make me actually like the song.
- 1:25:56Speaker 2: You know, there was another Scooby Doo song besides that
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: they would put on Saturday Mornings that was actually a
- 1:26:03Speaker 2: pretty good theme songte that show didn't quite make it
- 1:26:07Speaker 2: to the meetings, so we didn't include it, but I
- 1:26:08Speaker 2: feel like if it had, it would probably begining a
- 1:26:11Speaker 2: lot more both all right with that, man said, it's
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: going up against our eleven seed Pound puppies. The lady
- 1:26:20Speaker 2: who hates the Pound puppies is clearly Cruella Deville. Uh yeah,
- 1:26:26Speaker 2: def Dave is shaking his head, So why don't you
- 1:26:29Speaker 2: go first?
- 1:26:31Speaker 3: So the pound puppies were another one of those like
- 1:26:34Speaker 3: girl skewing Christmas gifts that my cousin's got at some
- 1:26:38Speaker 3: point in the eighties, And so that's what I know
- 1:26:41Speaker 3: about the pound puppies. You would buy a stuffed animal.
- 1:26:44Speaker 3: You'd buy a stuff dog, but plot twist, you could
- 1:26:48Speaker 3: open it up and pull out baby dogs from its guts.
- 1:26:51Speaker 3: Those were the pound puppies, and so they decided to
- 1:26:56Speaker 3: make a cartoon about it.
- 1:26:57Speaker 2: So all right, Lindsey, what do you think?
- 1:27:01Speaker 1: Well, I had pound puppies, but I never had the
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: kind where you pulled puppies out of its guts. So
- 1:27:08Speaker 1: I would much rather hear this pound puppy theme song
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: than Scooby Doo said over and over again one hundred times.
- 1:27:15Speaker 2: I guess I know which way your vote's going.
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just saying, at least it goes somewhere,
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: at least it advances the story.
- 1:27:24Speaker 2: Nineties Dave, this is the case.
- 1:27:28Speaker 4: I think we heard earlier that, like Deaf Dave just said,
- 1:27:31Speaker 4: they they started telling these and they got hot quick.
- 1:27:34Speaker 4: I remember they got hot on TV and people just
- 1:27:37Speaker 4: started buying them. And you know, I think they just like, hey,
- 1:27:40Speaker 4: we need a cartoon for this, and they rushed it out.
- 1:27:41Speaker 4: And the song kind of sounds like it. I don't
- 1:27:44Speaker 4: mind it wrote ro RoAF parts, but it's yeah, and
- 1:27:48Speaker 4: being a former military guy, it's got a very marching
- 1:27:51Speaker 4: beat to it. Yeah, and they had to rush cartoon Jim,
- 1:27:55Speaker 4: So what they got? What other shows do we have
- 1:27:57Speaker 4: about dogs? Well we got out one hundred run Dalmatians.
- 1:28:01Speaker 4: Yeah right it up.
- 1:28:01Speaker 3: Nobody's gonna notice, oh Rob.
- 1:28:07Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. This is a tough one that
- 1:28:08Speaker 5: both these are.
- 1:28:09Speaker 4: Uh, we're offering up, we're offering up the to just
- 1:28:14Speaker 4: get masked out here in the next round.
- 1:28:16Speaker 3: So I know.
- 1:28:18Speaker 5: Now what I did froinnd about Pound Puppies is that
- 1:28:20Speaker 5: one of the composers, he was the guy responsible for
- 1:28:24Speaker 5: full House Family Matters and step by Step really and
- 1:28:28Speaker 5: so they kicked this garbage out and come one, Wow,
- 1:28:31Speaker 5: maybe this was no you were talented, iconic stuff and
- 1:28:37Speaker 5: you got pump Puppies.
- 1:28:38Speaker 2: Any looks like John Sebastian doing whatever. I know, all right, Yeah,
- 1:28:45Speaker 2: I I agree with you, Dave on the on the
- 1:28:48Speaker 2: it's definitely a marching beat for sure.
- 1:28:51Speaker 7: Uh so.
- 1:28:52Speaker 2: And I also agree with you that the winner of
- 1:28:54Speaker 2: this is really just the sacrificial lamb to mask in
- 1:28:57Speaker 2: the second round. So who were we going to advance?
- 1:29:01Speaker 3: Gets to be the tribute.
- 1:29:03Speaker 2: Yes, I'm gonna shock everybody here. I think you can
- 1:29:06Speaker 2: go with Pound Puppies. Uh lind puppies. All right, uh
- 1:29:14Speaker 2: nineties Daves.
- 1:29:16Speaker 4: Sure bound puppies moving in it, but it ve slow death.
- 1:29:18Speaker 4: Here in a minute, Deaf Dave, I want.
- 1:29:23Speaker 2: To see Scrappy Do get run over by the masks.
- 1:29:27Speaker 5: Wow Wow Rob?
- 1:29:31Speaker 3: Wait wait Rob, what's Rob voting for?
- 1:29:33Speaker 11: Yeah?
- 1:29:34Speaker 2: This one, I'm gonna just I'm gonna go.
- 1:29:35Speaker 5: I'm gonna do Scrappy Do.
- 1:29:36Speaker 3: Okay, then I'll go back and do Scooby Doo so
- 1:29:38Speaker 3: we can watch Scrappy get run over.
- 1:29:40Speaker 5: There you go. Reminds me about that old the Jeopardy bit.
- 1:29:45Speaker 3: As jim by rule of you know, I don't want
- 1:29:48Speaker 3: to script the whole system here? Am I allowed to
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: change it? Yeah? Yeah, you're allowed to change because it
- 1:29:52Speaker 3: really this doesn't matter in this case.
- 1:29:54Speaker 2: I don't care.
- 1:29:56Speaker 3: Let's let's let's let def Dave have a moment today,
- 1:30:00Speaker 3: all right.
- 1:30:00Speaker 2: So our winners from the first round are duct Tails,
- 1:30:04Speaker 2: the one seed Team Wolf, the eight seed Chippindale Rescue Rangers,
- 1:30:08Speaker 2: the four seed care Bears, the five seed Heath Cliff,
- 1:30:11Speaker 2: the three seed Yogi Bear, the seven seed Mask, the
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: three seed, and Scooby Do the six seeds. So we
- 1:30:17Speaker 2: went chalk in that first round, folks, the higher seed
- 1:30:20Speaker 2: one in every case.
- 1:30:23Speaker 4: And let's something where it happens. I can tell you
- 1:30:25Speaker 4: the outcome of the next four real quick.
- 1:30:27Speaker 2: So all right, So now we've got a vote in
- 1:30:31Speaker 2: the second round, the one seed duck tails versus the
- 1:30:33Speaker 2: eight seed Team Wolf Lindsey. I'll start with you.
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: It ain't even close, ducktails, and then I will go
- 1:30:40Speaker 1: with Rob next.
- 1:30:44Speaker 5: Yeah, ducktails all day long, all right.
- 1:30:46Speaker 2: And nineties Dave, I'm assuming you're going ducktail. Yep, not
- 1:30:50Speaker 2: close theft Dave, ducktails, and I am also going ductails,
- 1:30:54Speaker 2: So that advances there pretty easily. And now we've got
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: the four seed Chippendale Rescue Rangers versus the five seed
- 1:31:03Speaker 2: care Bears. We'll go the opposite way this time, Deaf Dave,
- 1:31:07Speaker 2: who do you got Chippindale? Nineties Dave, who do you got?
- 1:31:12Speaker 3: Again? Not close Chippindale. Just kick those bears right out
- 1:31:15Speaker 3: of here.
- 1:31:16Speaker 2: So and then Rob Chippindale, Lindsay, you don't have to
- 1:31:20Speaker 2: look at any more bear crap because Chippendale's got advances
- 1:31:23Speaker 2: at who you're gonna vote for? Appindale, all right? And
- 1:31:26Speaker 2: that's also who I am going to vote for as well.
- 1:31:29Speaker 2: So we got another runaway, and then we've got the
- 1:31:33Speaker 2: two seed Heathcliff versus the seven seed Yogi Bear. I'm
- 1:31:39Speaker 2: gonna go with Heathcliff, Lindsay.
- 1:31:42Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna go with Heathcliffe too, Rob Heathcliffe.
- 1:31:47Speaker 3: Nineties Dave obviously Heathcliffe, and then deaf Dave.
- 1:31:52Speaker 2: Heathcliff. Yeah, Heathcliff kind of rocks, folks. And then finally, can.
- 1:31:57Speaker 3: We just write that one in and go to the
- 1:31:58Speaker 3: next part.
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: Let's let's all over Scrappy do with one of those
- 1:32:04Speaker 2: cement pavers and flatten him. But let's just make an
- 1:32:11Speaker 2: official mask man.
- 1:32:13Speaker 12: There you go.
- 1:32:14Speaker 3: All right, there we go mask, And now we'll try
- 1:32:16Speaker 3: to generate an AI illustration of Mask running over Scrappy.
- 1:32:21Speaker 5: There you will.
- 1:32:22Speaker 2: There we got awesome. All right, So now we are
- 1:32:27Speaker 2: to the final four of this bracket, but the really
- 1:32:31Speaker 2: the sweet sixteen of the whole tournament. And these are
- 1:32:33Speaker 2: for sure the four best songs. And it's a shame
- 1:32:36Speaker 2: that maybe these songs aren't in different brackets.
- 1:32:39Speaker 3: I highlight it.
- 1:32:40Speaker 4: I said it to be in today that four should
- 1:32:42Speaker 4: get to the end that I think I highlight it.
- 1:32:43Speaker 2: All four of these. Yeah. Absolutely, So we've got duct
- 1:32:47Speaker 2: Tails versus Kippindale. All right, so this one should be interesting, Rob,
- 1:32:58Speaker 2: I'll let you go first. I know my lock Ship
- 1:33:00Speaker 2: and Dale Rescue Rangers.
- 1:33:04Speaker 5: Gosh, this is tough because both of them are written
- 1:33:06Speaker 5: by the same team, same singers. I mean, it's they're
- 1:33:10Speaker 5: basically the same song. I'm gonna you on my vote
- 1:33:15Speaker 5: right now. Do you want to wait, I'm gonna give
- 1:33:17Speaker 5: it to you.
- 1:33:18Speaker 1: Uh.
- 1:33:18Speaker 5: I'm gonna go DuckTales okay?
- 1:33:21Speaker 1: Uh?
- 1:33:22Speaker 2: Deaf Dave, what are you going?
- 1:33:25Speaker 3: These two are very similar, they land very close to
- 1:33:27Speaker 3: each other. I don't think there's a wrong answer. I
- 1:33:30Speaker 3: again enough of a comic book guy to have respect
- 1:33:33Speaker 3: for the Carl Bark's pedigree and legacy of the the
- 1:33:38Speaker 3: Duck Adventure Tales.
- 1:33:40Speaker 2: So I'm going with Ducktails Lindsey Ducktails nineties Daves.
- 1:33:45Speaker 4: Yeah, not to give anything away for later shows if
- 1:33:48Speaker 4: I show back up, but Ducktails goes on the Mount
- 1:33:51Speaker 4: Rushmore of cartoon theme songs, So duck Tails rules, and
- 1:33:56Speaker 4: I agree.
- 1:33:57Speaker 2: I am Actually I was maybe a little prized. I
- 1:34:00Speaker 2: always thought duck Tails was one of the best, if
- 1:34:02Speaker 2: not the best, cartoon theme song, but I was surprised
- 1:34:05Speaker 2: that it got so many votes, like, like almost everybody agreed,
- 1:34:08Speaker 2: So it's gonna be tough to beat goal.
- 1:34:11Speaker 3: What was that story?
- 1:34:12Speaker 4: Rob?
- 1:34:12Speaker 5: What was that?
- 1:34:12Speaker 3: Sorry?
- 1:34:13Speaker 4: You told you told your wife you were doing this
- 1:34:15Speaker 4: podcast about start cartoon theme songs, and she said the
- 1:34:19Speaker 4: first one that popped in her head was Ducktails.
- 1:34:21Speaker 5: Yeah, she just brush your teeth and I got the text.
- 1:34:25Speaker 5: What songs did you pick? And I yelled at my
- 1:34:27Speaker 5: wife across the house, what what cartoons? And she goes,
- 1:34:30Speaker 5: duck Tess first.
- 1:34:32Speaker 2: Yeah, if it's it's classic, for sure, it's a it's
- 1:34:34Speaker 2: a great song. So then we've got our two seed,
- 1:34:37Speaker 2: our three seed, and man, this is uh these are
- 1:34:39Speaker 2: two bangers. So Lindsey Heathcliff versus Masks. I think I'm
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: going to go with masks, all right?
- 1:34:45Speaker 8: Uh?
- 1:34:46Speaker 2: I know, Uh deaf Dave, what are you going with? Wow?
- 1:34:50Speaker 3: Uh tough, I'll get down to the end of this
- 1:34:52Speaker 3: bracket is tough. Ducktails is on the mount Rushmore. But
- 1:34:55Speaker 3: you know what, mask, Mask rocks too hard. I gotta
- 1:34:59Speaker 3: go with masks, Rob, Mask.
- 1:35:03Speaker 2: Yeah, and Dave, I know this was one of your votes.
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: This was actually a song that I had actually forgotten
- 1:35:08Speaker 2: about and when you gave it a vote, and my
- 1:35:11Speaker 2: brother had actually texted me and was like, the masque
- 1:35:13Speaker 2: asked to be up there. I listened to it. I'm like,
- 1:35:15Speaker 2: holy cow, they are so right. So I know you're
- 1:35:18Speaker 2: going Mask great.
- 1:35:20Speaker 4: Now, Yeah, I'm but I've I mean, Haycliff is great.
- 1:35:23Speaker 4: I feel bad it had to fall off this early
- 1:35:25Speaker 4: because I'm sure in some of your other brackets, some
- 1:35:27Speaker 4: other steaming pile of bear pooh or whatever she called it,
- 1:35:31Speaker 4: that'll get through. But he Shliff will have died here today.
- 1:35:35Speaker 4: So but Mask is superior in kind of every way.
- 1:35:38Speaker 5: Yeah. Why is Mask in the animal bracket though?
- 1:35:41Speaker 2: Because of the seeding, because of.
- 1:35:42Speaker 5: The way the pipes came in.
- 1:35:44Speaker 2: So I went three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven,
- 1:35:48Speaker 2: twelve right across, just like you would do all seed
- 1:35:50Speaker 2: each and so that's where Mask just happened to end up.
- 1:35:54Speaker 2: So that's why it's that's why it's there, all right.
- 1:35:59Speaker 2: So we are down to our final eight now, or
- 1:36:02Speaker 2: at least our final two in this region, and we're
- 1:36:04Speaker 2: gonna have a banger of a matchup when we get
- 1:36:06Speaker 2: to the final episode. It's gonna be ducktails versus mask
- 1:36:10Speaker 2: here a one in two seed. We did not have
- 1:36:13Speaker 2: a one in two seed in our first bracket match up,
- 1:36:17Speaker 2: so that, uh, that'll be interesting. I really think that
- 1:36:21Speaker 2: the winner of this probably goes on to win the tournament,
- 1:36:26Speaker 2: but I'm but I can't say that for sure, because
- 1:36:28Speaker 2: it all depends on who the people are that the
- 1:36:30Speaker 2: that come on. But yeah, this was a lot of fun.
- 1:36:34Speaker 4: Oh That's why I would have said, Jim, I would
- 1:36:35Speaker 4: have said, I know your how your your numbers matched up.
- 1:36:39Speaker 4: I would have really liked to have seen mask at
- 1:36:42Speaker 4: duct Tails in different brackets where they could have come
- 1:36:44Speaker 4: together like a final four type situation.
- 1:36:47Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, uh, I agree.
- 1:36:50Speaker 5: I just it just went that way.
- 1:36:52Speaker 2: I'm in finance, Dave, I just got to go by
- 1:36:55Speaker 2: the dub burst. I can't all right, guys, thanks for
- 1:36:59Speaker 2: being here, but I just you know, what do you
- 1:37:02Speaker 2: think overall? And then go ahead and plug your shows?
- 1:37:04Speaker 2: What are you not coming up? So Dave and rabb
- 1:37:07Speaker 2: I'll start with you, whoever wants to go first.
- 1:37:09Speaker 4: First of all, thanks for having us on. This was great,
- 1:37:11Speaker 4: had a lot of fun. I didn't know we'd make
- 1:37:13Speaker 4: fun of bears.
- 1:37:13Speaker 3: So much today.
- 1:37:14Speaker 4: So the top two songs went through, and like I
- 1:37:19Speaker 4: said before, I thought was gonna get there. So no
- 1:37:22Speaker 4: surprise today, no anger for me. So and again I
- 1:37:25Speaker 4: apologize to Matt spending the Wheel for whatever wrong I.
- 1:37:29Speaker 3: Gave to him.
- 1:37:29Speaker 4: So we will have had because we put out an
- 1:37:32Speaker 4: episode of the Day before you, so right that Tuesday
- 1:37:35Speaker 4: just comes out on Wednesday. Tuesday, Rob and I are
- 1:37:37Speaker 4: talking about our all time nineties albums, so we each said,
- 1:37:42Speaker 4: you can only listen to ten albums for the rest
- 1:37:44Speaker 4: of your life from the nineteen nineties, and we're gonna
- 1:37:46Speaker 4: go through what those ten albums each are. So we're
- 1:37:48Speaker 4: gonna be talking about that. So lots of fun. If
- 1:37:50Speaker 4: you're a nineties fan, I know that's not to your
- 1:37:52Speaker 4: children in the eighties crowd, but they did go into
- 1:37:54Speaker 4: the nineties, so maybe they liked some of that stuff.
- 1:37:57Speaker 4: But yeah, totally eighties ninety recall, we we do nostalgia
- 1:38:02Speaker 4: like Jim and lindsay here, and we were trying to
- 1:38:05Speaker 4: catch up to them. So give us a listen if

- 1:38:47Speaker 2: but UH love your show. Uh you know, folks, you
- 1:38:52Speaker 2: I'm sure our listeners know who they are, but just
- 1:38:54Speaker 2: in case you don't, if you fell, you know, off
- 1:38:56Speaker 2: of airplane the other day or something and pumped your head.
- 1:39:00Speaker 1: Foul off of an airplane and bumped your it's.
- 1:39:03Speaker 2: Totally eighties and nineties recall. Go check them out. Deaf Dave,
- 1:39:08Speaker 2: thank you so much for joining us. Your new show,
- 1:39:11Speaker 2: Deaf Dave's nineteen eighty four is all about diving into
- 1:39:15Speaker 2: what you claim to be the best year ever nineteen
- 1:39:17Speaker 2: eighty four. It's fun. I know I'll be on some
- 1:39:21Speaker 2: episodes coming up here. You've released two so far. So far,
- 1:39:25Speaker 2: the numbers look good, the shows have been excellent. I've
- 1:39:27Speaker 2: enjoyed it. Tell us what you've got coming up?
- 1:39:31Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, So I've been a few years guesting on
- 1:39:33Speaker 3: other people's shows making my case from nineteen eighty four,
- 1:39:37Speaker 3: and got convinced to just do a deep dive and
- 1:39:39Speaker 3: dedicate an entire series. This is gonna be a four
- 1:39:41Speaker 3: year project. I'm gonna devote each season to one quarter
- 1:39:45Speaker 3: of the year of eighty four, and I'm going to
- 1:39:47Speaker 3: go through absolutely everything, all aspects of pop culture. I'm
- 1:39:50Speaker 3: stepping through the calendar chronologically of whatever hits, movies, TV shows, comics,
- 1:39:54Speaker 3: pro wrestling, news, headlines, whatever. We're going to explore absolutely
- 1:39:58Speaker 3: every bit of the year, having a ton of fun
- 1:40:00Speaker 3: doing it. Jim, your first appearance on my show is
- 1:40:05Speaker 3: out today on March eleventh. There's a Jim and def
- 1:40:08Speaker 3: Dave double dip here on March eleventh. I've got you
- 1:40:12Speaker 3: on today talking about the series premiere of night Court,
- 1:40:18Speaker 3: which came on in January of eighty four. So when
- 1:40:21Speaker 3: you're through here, just switch over to my show and
- 1:40:25Speaker 3: you and I continue that conversation. I'm gonna have Lindsey's
- 1:40:29Speaker 3: gonna be my true crime expert on the show, but
- 1:40:33Speaker 3: she's she's gonna show up first to talk about Footloose,
- 1:40:35Speaker 3: since I understand Jim that you absolutely refuse to talk
- 1:40:38Speaker 3: about that one. So I don't know what's up with that.
- 1:40:41Speaker 2: But I don't watch movies about dancing. I mean, it
- 1:40:45Speaker 2: is what it is.
- 1:40:46Speaker 3: And I think I've convinced Robin Dave here to join
- 1:40:49Speaker 3: me for a conversation about police Academy. As long as
- 1:40:51Speaker 3: they don't back out on me, I will have all
- 1:40:53Speaker 3: of you on my show here in the first season
- 1:40:55Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six.
- 1:40:57Speaker 2: They are professionals. They will not back out on you.
- 1:41:02Speaker 5: So part of that Satan's true, and part of that
- 1:41:05Speaker 5: Saman's false.
- 1:41:07Speaker 2: Thanks so much, guys, we appreciate having you on. Always fun.
- 1:41:12Speaker 2: Had another blast again today, and we'll see how these
- 1:41:14Speaker 2: brackets go. Ironically enough, March eleventh, the date that this drops,
- 1:41:18Speaker 2: the date that I'm on Deaf Dave Show, is the
- 1:41:20Speaker 2: one year anniversary of when I tore my achilles last year.
- 1:41:24Speaker 2: So hopefully this March eleventh will be a lot better
- 1:41:26Speaker 2: than last March Elevenike.
- 1:41:29Speaker 5: Because you were watching footloose.
- 1:41:30Speaker 1: Jim, that that's really the battle.
- 1:41:33Speaker 3: My foot certainly was loose to you tore your footloose. Yeah,
- 1:41:39Speaker 3: talking about Mike Core will be less painful exactly.
- 1:41:42Speaker 2: You want to give your plugs here, Lindsey.
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: Give my plugs. So we recently added Patreon to our
