• 0:00
  Am is dad steering from people he's supposed to help. King of Deeves,
• 0:06
  we worship you. Ah, he is steering log at me, guys,
• 0:13
  I'm stealing five seguyes at once. And speaking of segways, I'm after my
• 0:18
  next morally questionable activity. Four finger discount. Dude, welcome to four figure
• 0:40
  discount. Your show with Ghindando or with Dan and Guy were hit a review
• 0:46
  Crooking Ladder. But we just had a discussion that thirty seconds ago about the
• 0:49
  pronunciation whether it should be ghand and guys, let's talk me up the show.
• 0:52
  So that's what we're doing. Everything is content. Ah, A good
• 0:57
  buddy atue for guys. Conversation about how we to a deli last week.
• 1:03
  This is an early indication of how good Crooked Ladder was. Perhaps I didn't
• 1:07
  mind it, but yeah, continue, so tell me about what what abit
• 1:10
  to bring up? Guy down a Dane and Guy. This is a long
• 1:12
  story as money of minor. How long should you say for later in the
• 1:15
  show? Oh no, no, actually not that long. Just recently it
• 1:19
  was reported that a movie is going to come out, something like a spinoff
• 1:23
  of Ferris Bueller's Day Off called I think it's called Vic and Donnie's day off
• 1:29
  or something like that. But it's the two guys who they're the valets who
• 1:34
  take the Ferrari, you know the scene. Yeah, yeah, and it's
• 1:38
  just about their day. And a good buddy of mine on social media said,
• 1:44
  well, it's probably not called Vic donni'ess. I should look this up
• 1:47
  and find out what it's actually called. But I'll look it up while you
• 1:49
  tell me this. But the thing of it is, yes, he pointed
• 1:53
  out, and quite brightly. So I think it's like, yeah, if
• 1:57
  it's going to be called that, really Sam and Victor day off, Sam
• 2:00
  and Victor, Okay, it should be called Victor and Sam's day off because
• 2:04
  you need to have the two syllable name at the start. It always flows
• 2:09
  better, I think. So we have talked about this in the part when
• 2:14
  I first became part of the four Finger discount network and you very graciously said
• 2:20
  you gave me top billing. It's like, oh, it's Guy and Dando.
• 2:22
  It's like, that's great, I appreciate it. And you know,
• 2:23
  in a perfect world, guy always gets top billing. But the other thing
• 2:28
  is dand one guy sounds better, and Guy and Dando the end and the
• 2:32
  Dando sort of flow into each other and it's all about the flow though.
• 2:38
  Yeah, Dando and Guy dan Do and guy Guy and Dando. But this
• 2:42
  is the thing that but why does the two syllbols have to be first?
• 2:45
  Though? Why? What is the purpose of the two syllables being first?
• 2:47
  This is one of those things it's very hard to explain, or not even
• 2:50
  hard to explain. Just you gotta feel it. Famous duos Martin and Lewis.
• 2:57
  So Tom and Jerry, there you go, Jerry and Tom. No,
• 3:00
  it doesn't work, Tom and Jerry. But we're used to hearing Tom
• 3:02
  and everyone's used to Burton Ernie. Oh god, damn it. I had
• 3:07
  a really good argument and then you just trump it with facts. Any I'm
• 3:12
  shouldn't find one, will continue only to find one more just there. But
• 3:15
  yeah, so you think that's what it should have been. I still think
• 3:20
  given that you are the mover and shaker, the prime driver, the big
• 3:24
  hoona of four finger discount productions, you should be in front when I say
• 3:30
  ghost. That's why it's going to be Gian Dando. Anyway, though,
• 3:35
  Crooked and Ladder, there we go, and thank god we got a new
• 3:39
  names challenge coming up. That can provide us with great new names for crooked
• 3:43
  ladder? Yes, what was his title of play on? Do you think
• 3:45
  is it cloak and dagger? Maybe let's look at the references. Usually says
• 3:50
  it in the on the wiki page. Nothing here but the title crooked ladder.
• 3:53
  That's the only thing I can think of that sort of sounds vaguely similar,
• 3:57
  because crooked ladder. No, I can't think of anything. There's probably
• 4:00
  something right there that all the listeners are going, you idiots, this is
• 4:03
  what it is. How many times have I said, yeah, I'm terrible
• 4:05
  at this. Simpson's mail bag at gmail dot com right in, or you're
• 4:09
  a patient abour, just comment let us know what is crooked ladder? A
• 4:13
  take off of please do not Snakes and ladders? Wouldn't be would it is
• 4:16
  crooked ladder? I think do they even place snakes and ladders in the States
• 4:20
  because they tend to call it like shoots and roundabouts or something. No,
• 4:24
  that have to play snakes and ladders. It can't be an Australian thing,
• 4:26
  snakes and ladders. Maybe it's a UK thing and then we've just incorporated into
• 4:30
  our culture. No, No, snakes letters have to be a thing,
• 4:31
  snakes and ladders. It was brought to the United Kingdom. It was originated
• 4:36
  in India. There you go, United Kingdom. Shoots and ladders. Maybe
• 4:41
  that's what they call in the States. Maybe yeah, yeah, who knows.
• 4:44
  Anyway, enough about that, because snakes and ladders doesn't necessarily these are
• 4:48
  not two things that taste great together, like Dan don't go. Yeah,
• 4:51
  it's like, oh, I climb a ladder, but I slide down a
• 4:54
  saint also snakes and ladders. It's everywhere you look, gy where you look.
• 5:00
  It really is a regret starting his argument, which wasn't even really an
• 5:05
  argument anyway. I want to touch Befo. We'll get into your deli story
• 5:10
  a little bit later. We'll tease that one. So have it really a
• 5:12
  deli store? We all know guys had He's on his health kick at the
• 5:15
  moment. The Kido diet is what it's called kiddo essentially. Yes, it's
• 5:18
  basically, don'ty calves, don't need sugar. Yes, he spoiled himself last
• 5:24
  yesterday? Was it yesterday yesterday? And you'll find out what it was.
• 5:27
  What was on this delicious deli sandwich a little bit later in the show.
• 5:31
  You're really going to be hanging on on to find out guy had a sandwich?
• 5:36
  Yeah, what do you think was on guys sandwich? Spend the next
• 5:39
  forty five minutes trying to guess and then play a game with yourself. It's
• 5:43
  supposed to play with yourself like it's also a game, yes, suitable,
• 5:49
  suitable for one player, but crook and ladder. So you've obviously said that
• 5:57
  you didn't really enjoy this one. This is my thoughts on it, right.
• 5:59
  I thought this is an episode that another one of those ones where you
• 6:01
  go if this had more focus and more of a fleshed out idea that has
• 6:06
  a lot of potential. In my opinion, this episode, it's a lot
• 6:09
  a lot of potential, but they wasted too much time at the start of
• 6:12
  getting to them becoming firefighters. I think this could have been one of those
• 6:15
  episodes where kind of like a flashback one, kind of like the b Sharp's
• 6:18
  episode where it's just you, guys, don't remember that time that we were
• 6:21
  firefighters and it flashes back. I just think that this one here spent like
• 6:27
  six seven minutes trying to get them becoming firefighters, and it didn't really make
• 6:30
  sense. It's like Maggie wants to pacifire. Then Homer can't sleep and that's
• 6:33
  why he takes the tablets, and then he has a crash, and then
• 6:35
  then he becomes a firefighter. I'm just like, I felt like half the
• 6:39
  episode wash by the time we got to the actual meat of it. Yeah,
• 6:42
  and then you quite a really nice sandwich, and then you get to
• 6:46
  the end of the episode, and the ending felt so rushed and just out
• 6:49
  of nowhere, where it was just Homer telling the kids and that's why we
• 6:53
  learned out lesson. That was the end of that story. And I was
• 6:55
  like, you didn't start off with Homer telling a story, though, weird
• 6:59
  that it ended with Homer retelling the story to the kids, Like this whole
• 7:01
  episode has been a story. It was just so bizarre, felt so rushed.
• 7:04
  More of the episode should have been focused on the conflict of right and
• 7:08
  wrong. Wrong, absolutely so. It should have been mid episode where the
• 7:11
  kids see him stealing, and then the last half of the episode, last
• 7:14
  act and a half, should have been him having the conflict in his mind
• 7:17
  and with the kids, please do the right thing, dad, blah blah
• 7:19
  blah. Right. Instead, it was like the last three minutes it really
• 7:24
  was. This episode felt just really hastily assembled again out of spare parts.
• 7:30
  Yeah, I mean this, Yeah, this first ten to fifteen minutes.
• 7:32
  I mean, I'm not sure exactly how long it was before we got to
• 7:36
  yeah, the general thrust of the story, but it seemed like age is
• 7:41
  that. Honestly, it did seem like half the episode. I like it
• 7:45
  when they get an ensemble of characters and put them together doing something two millions
• 7:47
  and do before, and I know that they tend to always go They're always
• 7:51
  trying to pooh in these things that the pin pals. Remember when they went
• 7:57
  to another country to get to the drugs, they went to Mexico, but
• 8:01
  that wasn't Canada or Canada, but I went to know the country get to
• 8:05
  get the drugs or the medicines and things like. That's always a pooth thrown
• 8:07
  in there. But I thought there was definitely a story here that, if
• 8:11
  fleshed out properly, was definitely would have been far more enjoyable. Yeah,
• 8:15
  I mean, not to do the Monday morning quarterback and think of like this
• 8:18
  is how you should have done it, guys, But I mean, I
• 8:20
  think I would have preferred this if Yah, Homer becomes part of a volunteer
• 8:24
  firefighting team quickly discovers that it's risky work, but you also can get compensated
• 8:31
  for it. There's perks there, there are perks to it. But along
• 8:35
  the way he realizes, oh, you know, we're looking up, we're
• 8:37
  looking after these really rich people and getting nothing for it. Someone else in
• 8:43
  the group is like, yeah, we're not getting anything. That's probably going
• 8:46
  to be mo who starts pinching stuff. Hom It does it once, you
• 8:50
  know, he's like, maybe he needs to get like a new pacifier or
• 8:52
  something. He pinches a pacifier because he needs one. Yeah, and like,
• 8:58
  oh, well, can get and it escalates, escalates, escalades,
• 9:01
  and then he realized, oh no, wait a minute, I'm doing good,
• 9:05
  but I'm also doing bad. And in the end, you know,
• 9:07
  the moral scales are put back in justice. It does the right thing.
• 9:09
  And I say, stealing from burns too. It should have been for it
• 9:11
  to feel even more wrong stealing from someone who doesn't deserve it. Yes,
• 9:16
  by all means steal from the rich. I mean I'm down for grand lasting
• 9:20
  as the next person. But then gets so sort of hooked on it that
• 9:22
  you end up taking a little bit from everywhere you go, and then you,
• 9:26
  yeah, you maybe took a pacifier from some place, and another baby
• 9:30
  starts crying. These are not great ideas. I'm just spitballing. But yeah,
• 9:33
  again, it just felt like we got to the when it ended up
• 9:35
  went oh, that's the end. This didn't really have an endy. It
• 9:39
  was just hey, mo, I think we're doing the wrong thing. Yeah,
• 9:41
  you're probably right. Hey it's a clock. And then a poo gets
• 9:43
  hurt. Homer saves the day by taking it out of the house. Have
• 9:48
  they learned their lesson? It's just I think they have. I haven't learned
• 9:50
  a lesson that, and I haven't been taught a lesson either. There's no
• 9:54
  repercussions for their actions, it seems, because they've got to deccept. You
• 9:58
  know. The kids are looking at home and like Dad's gone bad. Yeah,
• 10:01
  because we got to the end. It's almost like they got to the
• 10:03
  end and we went wait a minute, they didn't learn that lessons quick throwing
• 10:05
  the clip of Homer saying and that's the time. We learned our lesson and
• 10:07
  we gave all the stuff to the hoboes, And I was like, what
• 10:11
  what good ending is this? And it's not even an ending where it's yeah,
• 10:16
  all the hoboes ended up with with stupid artways. If you're going to
• 10:20
  have some kind of moral lesson or some kind of moral realignment or balancing,
• 10:26
  make sure someone benefits in a you know, in a positive way, as
• 10:30
  opposed to we got stuff, we got useless stuff. Speaking of benefits,

• 11:56
  All right, mister Davis, it is now time for favorite moments,
• 12:01
  My favorite What were your favorite moments from this episode? I had one or
• 12:05
  two. Was that the ending, the closing credits. It was when I
• 12:09
  turned it off and started watching something. Speaking of something else, we are
• 12:13
  also recording a review today of Futurama the bird Bot of Yes for Tales of
• 12:18
  the Future exclussly on our Patreon. But yes, what were your favorite moments?
• 12:22
  Favorite moments? I did have some, certainly I did like when the
• 12:24
  kids were sad and Homer tries to cover it up with bacon and eggs.
• 12:28
  That was actually a good movement. And then the bacon eggs started running and
• 12:31
  they all looked sad again, So a good visual gag. I just want
• 12:33
  to interject. This episode had a lot of montage. Did you feel that
• 12:37
  we had a montage, the zombie montage. We had the sad eyes bit
• 12:39
  with the sad eyes in that moment that you're talking about, which you call
• 12:43
  a montage. Dare I say the montage kind of of Homer going is it
• 12:46
  that? Is it the alarm yet? Or what's that sound? What's that
• 12:48
  sound? It's like there was three padding moments. There's a lot of padding,
• 12:54
  yeah, in this episode, which didn't was. I feel like you
• 12:56
  look at the store and you think this episode shouldn't need padding. I feel
• 12:58
  bad in dissing of sledging this episode because but it feels slap dash. It
• 13:03
  felt like we made this during the Simpsons movie. We've went at a time.
• 13:07
  Yeah, and there's a lot of jokes that aren't necessarily even jokes.
• 13:11
  There's a couple of moments where they explained the joke as well, and I
• 13:13
  was like, I got that joke. You didn't need to then explain it
• 13:16
  to me, or it feels like insert joke here. Yes, Having said
• 13:22
  that, I like the idea of nighttime kookiness. That's something I'm always down
• 13:26
  for. Lovely Luise, I want a sudden new segment. By the way,
• 13:30
  I've got an idea. I just want to say it in case I
• 13:31
  forget worst moment ever every episode going forward, we got to pick a worst
• 13:35
  moment ever for me, it was mister Burns moment. We picked the right
• 13:37
  time to do that. Yeah, not necessarily even with this episode, but
• 13:41
  maybe with this season. Actually we've seen some good things this day. There's
• 13:43
  nowhere near as bad as I thought it was going to be. But mister
• 13:46
  Burns saying let's croon to that kite, I was like, what in God's
• 13:50
  name am I watching right now? Yeah? Patting, yeah, but piller
• 13:54
  but not funny. But not funny doesn't add anything to the story. It
• 13:58
  was just anyway that's my worst moment ever. I'm sure as we go through
• 14:03
  I will find one as well, and then I will interject with guys,
• 14:07
  worst moment ever? What else did I enjoy? Long time listeners to the
• 14:13
  podcast will know that one of my favorite visual gags either ever is when we're
• 14:18
  introduced to shoddy knockoff brands. I'm always been being Sawny Sawny and Sowny's back
• 14:24
  baby taken out of VCR with Sawny on it. I immediately thought of you
• 14:28
  when I saw it as well. It's amazing how certain things just get stuck
• 14:33
  in your head. Yea panaphonic or whatever it is. Yeah, but for
• 14:35
  mine is always Thawny. And also when they set up the domino rack or
• 14:39
  dominant principle of VHSS and Chud is the fan of chat. I don't mind
• 14:46
  Chud, I've never seen it. I do have the soundtrack on vinyl though,
• 14:48
  oh my goodness, really yeah yeah, someone will get it out in
• 14:52
  a minute, and cannibalistic humanoid underground dwellers the cover of the vinyl. I'm
• 14:56
  just like this looks cool. This is one of those movies where we mentioned
• 15:01
  all the time in the video still we'd walk past you see cop and you're
• 15:03
  like one dawn. Yeah, so it's worth watching. It's fine, Okay,
• 15:07
  Yeah, it's not going to know what you're going to be going to
• 15:11
  be in an eighties horror. Is it low budget? It is low budget,
• 15:15
  but it's got one of the wet Bandits in it. Daniel Stern.
• 15:18
  Oh shit O, the voice of the Wonder is Yes, indeed in a
• 15:22
  very early role. Yes, it's not quite as gruesome and monstrous as you
• 15:26
  would you would hope throw bricks at him and said him, let your fine
• 15:30
  with the washing makin No. Homeland finally made good on the promise of Chud.
• 15:37
  But it's also just a great title, and it's been I guess repurpose
• 15:43
  these I do you hear a lot of people seem to it pops up a
• 15:46
  lot. It's like, yeah, this Chud. Yeah, but just the
• 15:48
  Chud movie you just see referencing and you're like, well, was it was
• 15:52
  it? They've said it is it a cold classic? Now I don't think
• 15:54
  it's a cold classic, but just the title, it's like with all the
• 15:58
  chirt the Chuds came after me. Yeah, it's just such a it's a
• 16:04
  terrible title. But also a great title. Yep, okay, what does
• 16:07
  CHUD stand for Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground? Well that's it. Yeah, cool,
• 16:11
  I'm going to be checking it out. Those were my favorite moments, and
• 16:15
  on what were your favorite? I enjoyed these two moments because I find now
• 16:18
  the more and more I watch these episodes as an adult, as a parent
• 16:22
  should say the moments such as Marge saying when the mother makes a decision yes
• 16:26
  to stick by it can give sad face have it bag. I was like,
• 16:30
  this is me. No, you're not having it. I've said no,
• 16:34
  my god. Fine. Also, I really enjoyed the Bink one eighty
• 16:40
  two ah, very timely because they're currently in the country. They are now.
• 16:44
  I've got a friend of mine who's an obsessive Blink one a two fan.
• 16:47
  Right, Apparently it's one eighty two one eight two. Are I'm sure
• 16:48
  all the correct way of saying it. I thought it was blink one eighty
• 16:51
  two. I've always said one eight two, but apparently it's one eighty two.
• 16:53
  I've alway said blink one blink one eighty two. Alwyd I say whatever
• 16:56
  Australian say is apparently the wrong way to say it. That's what I've read
• 16:59
  on line anyway. He's just like, oh, yeah, they sound terrible
• 17:03
  live, but thankfully now they've they AI their voices when you're watching them live,
• 17:06
  so it sounds good. And I'm like, wait, thankfully He's like,
• 17:08
  yeah, because a least now when you go to their gigs they sound
• 17:11
  good. I'm like, hey on, hey, why don't you just stay
• 17:15
  home and listen to the record. Yeah. So apparently now they AI.
• 17:18
  There's really funny clips online where they forget to turn the AI think off and
• 17:22
  when they're trying to talk it sounds like all AI and stuff. So we're
• 17:23
  now at a point in society where we want I suppose it's the next that's
• 17:27
  the next step up. It's probably better than mimy, though, isn't it.
• 17:30
  So See, I wouldn't want to go to a gig and watch my
• 17:33
  favorite band mime. But if they can't sing live, but I guess,
• 17:38
  I mean, who are we to say they can't do it? I don't
• 17:41
  know, it just it just felt odd to me hearing someone want A fans
• 17:44
  say, I'm so glad they're now aiing their voice so they sound good when
• 17:47
  I watch them live. It's a really tough one. Yes, bands and
• 17:49
  musicians can't really make money selling music anymore. No, not really. If
• 17:53
  you're going to that's true, make money us and you have to go out
• 17:56
  and do it live. Sometimes it's just the thrill of just seeing them being
• 18:00
  in the same room, absolutely breathing the same oxygen. But just yeah,
• 18:04
  they a their voices now to make him sound better live, because they sound
• 18:07
  terrible life And isn't it isn't one of the things about Blink one eighty two
• 18:11
  that they're kind of not snotty punks. But they're not. Yeah, because
• 18:17
  that's aren't they They're all they're all the small things. Yeah, they have
• 18:21
  two rooms in Bain. No, she left me roses by the stead.
• 18:25
  At least they're im not subscribing to gender norms. I mean, at least
• 18:27
  she's giving him roses, which is nice. They're the one who do you
• 18:33
  sounds so old? Are they the one that because I'm not sure if my
• 18:38
  good buddy Raf still listens to the show. He does, but he and
• 18:41
  I bond because when we were told this story, Actually, yeah, when
• 18:45
  we were working in the warehouse at pop Culture, you'd have the you'd have
• 18:48
  the radio on and Blick one A two came o Adam song. Adam's song,
• 18:52
  which is undoubtely very heart better. I believe it's about a tribute to
• 18:56
  a friend who took his own life or something along those lines. But I
• 19:00
  was just like, I hate this fucking song. Man, it's so more
• 19:03
  than sury Mom. I spilled the jews rap thought this was hilarious, and
• 19:10
  we became buds. So whenever we see each other where we go for lunch,
• 19:15
  you spill the juice, sury Ma. Actually, when lou and I
• 19:21
  went to this concert last weekend, in between acts they had they had this
• 19:25
  DJ on, except he sounded like t Bone and Weasel in the morning.
• 19:29
  Yeah, all right, I hope you're enjoying here to look at fest of
• 19:30
  all. Rebecca go to like fit whipper name like t Bone and Weasels.
• 19:37
  I owe my friend Anthony. There's actually a movie called t Bone and Makl
• 19:41
  starring The Lake, Gregory Hines and Christopher Lloyd Doc Brown from Back in the
• 19:45
  Future. Weasel or t Bone, I think he might be. He seems
• 19:48
  like a weasel. I think he might be weasel. But I both thought
• 19:52
  this title was so ridiculous. Uh, and we just sort of used it
• 19:56
  as shorthand for yeah, just shittyre radio DJs T bone, it's not and
• 20:02
  Weasel much like Cooking Ladder nineteen ninety two. Two ex convicts roam the South,
• 20:08
  just trying to get by, but can't seem to win it whatever they
• 20:11
  try. What the fuck is this? It just sounds depressing. I expected
• 20:17
  a comedy between two radio DJs, two ex convicts just trying to get by
• 20:22
  in the sound, But doesn't it sound like I tried to cut it as
• 20:26
  a stand up comic or whatever. Nah, I'm doing the breakfast radio shift
• 20:32
  in some shitty small town airhorn. Yeah. But and this carble Lloyd was
• 20:40
  Weezel. By the way, William Weasel Weasler makes sense that Scans and Gregor
• 20:45
  Hindes is just straight up tea bone. But this guy was playing songs in
• 20:48
  between Spider Bait and the Chats and a Queens of the Stone Age, and
• 20:56
  he played never Yeah, I don't play I don't think you played that in
• 21:00
  song? Oh no, do they do? I guess this is grilling.
• 21:04
  That's damn it. Yeah, blink one they too, Yeah, it's it's
• 21:07
  god damn it. Yeah, I've got a bit of recording, got a
• 21:11
  bit of recording that and send it around. I guess this is grilling,
• 21:15
  which like the content we need. So anyway, this is what my friendships
• 21:22
  are based on. It is basically just making fun of Blink one Need too.
• 21:26
  I love that, my favorite bink one a youtubes day to that story
• 21:30
  which had not even really made a weasel. Whatever we got there in then
• 21:33
  we're gonna get him a full full circle and back to crooking land. And
• 21:37
  finally for me, next time Maggie does that in the pool, tell quietly,
• 21:40
  do not announce it because kids sometimes Ali be like Holly's Pilly and I'm
• 21:44
  like, don't tell the fucking room. I wanted to leave the ship in
• 21:48
  the corner. Next question, you there eating the Beast trivia, mister Davis,
• 21:55
  I'm gonna hit you with my first question, go run. What did
• 21:59
  Mo want from Burns? What was he hoping to get? Oh? Complete
• 22:03
  something on DVD? Damn it monsters? Oh yeah, damn it a song
• 22:10
  I Blink one Day too. By the way, my first question to you
• 22:15
  four sheep jump the fence in the ad? What is written on the very
• 22:19
  last sheep last one? Is is it like strange lump or something is strange
• 22:23
  lump. Yeah, what is it? Mortgage strange lump, secret family family,
• 22:26
  And what's the other one mortgage secret family. It's mortgage than something else
• 22:33
  that everybody worries about that secret family. That's strange lum car problems, that's
• 22:37
  speaking. Yes, yeah, guy's got a broken window. I've got a
• 22:41
  chip in my wings. Yeah. Yes. Sleepier causes what according to the
• 22:47
  commercial four nappy or whatever, it is unlike Sleippier, which causes this.
• 22:53
  Damn it. It's foot fattening and elbow stink. That was okay, gag.
• 23:00
  There are moments in this episode. There are moments that I cannot remember
• 23:03
  speaking which there's an exhibition at the Springfield Museum. M Do you remember what
• 23:10
  it is. They're carrying something in the ah, Yeah, because it's got
• 23:14
  a big green jewel, isn't it. Yeah? I know what is it?
• 23:17
  It was rare gems of Mesopotamia. That was what. That was actually
• 23:19
  one of the moments where they spelled it out for me. I thought you
• 23:22
  didn't need that. So Skinner's like, I'm going to look away, now,
• 23:23
  look away, and he sees him taking the jam. That's the joke.
• 23:26
  But then you have skinna go. Well, you're not making it easy
• 23:29
  for me. You don't need to say that. Like the joke is,
• 23:33
  oh, you turned away and they're doing it again. That's it. You
• 23:36
  don't need to have another joke there. Anyway. My final question, and
• 23:40
  we'll get into the review. What jacket did Marge get from wolf Castle?
• 23:44
  What movie I shoot your face? Yes? There we go? Did I
• 23:49
  have one more questions? Why not hit me one more than we have?
• 23:52
  You mentioned bink one two before or one A two? Can you name two
• 23:56
  of the other type of pacifier that Homer rings home h thumbstitute is one yes,
• 24:03
  and something of synth nip or something synth one nip. You also would
• 24:07
  have accepted Kitty cork and ACU teaked. Would you accept the receipt? Suck
• 24:15
  on the receipt? All right? So the original edit of Crook and Ladder
• 24:18
  was May sixth, two thousand and seven, production co jab F one three,
• 24:22
  written by Bill Odenkirk and directed by Lance Kramer. The chop or gag
• 24:27
  did get a chop boor gag in this one? Did? Was? I
• 24:30
  will not look up what teacher makes still relevant to these days, not even
• 24:33
  more so? Even more so. Yeah, and the cash gag the TV
• 24:37
  moves aside. It seems to putting through a car wash. Put through a
• 24:40
  car wash and get spray with water and hilarity ensues. The episode kicks off
• 24:45
  with Marge getting the new issue of Smothering Mother magazine and she learns in here
• 24:49
  that is her baby becoming a psackleholic because there are new links to pacify overuse
• 24:53
  and low achievement, I like the hogoes of the dummies in their mount then
• 25:00
  spells out no future with the building boss, because that's sort of one of
• 25:03
  her recurring gags is spelling things out. Usually there used to be that she
• 25:06
  would spell things out though and the universe wouldn't realize the viewers would see it.
• 25:10
  She takes the pacify from the very first episodes. Isn't you know we're
• 25:12
  but the genius. The thing she's actually spelling out is it eCos square maybe
• 25:18
  or something? So some mathematic tuation. Yeah, yeah, but she she
• 25:21
  takes the pacifierway I'm gonna say ummy, communist, so saying dummy, she
• 25:23
  takes the dummy away from Maggie. But Grandpa mentions here that you know,
• 25:27
  I've also given up all of the things that I love except for raisins.
• 25:30
  Now, raisins make his skin go loose? What was the joke there?
• 25:33
  Look, what do raisins do to you? Why did his skin droop when
• 25:36
  he was eating raisins? Did he turn into a raisin? Is that meant
• 25:38
  to be the joke? Because you're wrinkly? Because raisins are wrinkly? I
• 25:41
  can't maybe what the quote unquote joke was. Yeah, but Drew, growing
• 25:48
  up does mean giving up everything that makes you happy? Doesn't have to podcasting.
• 25:52
  Yes, Well, it's just like sometimes you know when you just you
• 25:56
  got things from your child, and it's just like, you're too old for
• 26:00
  that. And I'm went, why if it makes me happy? Why am
• 26:03
  I too old for it? I come back to that Taylor Swift quote of
• 26:07
  if something makes ubody happy? Why are you? Who are the judge?
• 26:10
  Quit ragon? Quit ragon wet blanket? But Marge throws out the dummy and
• 26:14
  he gets taken away by the garbage man. Maggie, I'm sorry, I
• 26:18
  mister pacifier, But when her mother makes a decision, she has to stick
• 26:22
  by it. Okay, okay, you can have it back goes to get
• 26:29
  when out of the drawer, but the draw is unfortunately empty, so Maggie
• 26:32
  is now ruining the house. And Lisa says, why do you take advice
• 26:36
  from a Larry Flint magazine? Your man, my man? Larry Yes,
• 26:41
  probably best known as a pornographer. Bartie took his porno straw and spun it
• 26:45
  into gold. Actually not really. I mean he put out a bunch of
• 26:48
  other publications, but he's probably best known as the guy behind Hustler. So
• 26:52
  is it kind of like Hugh Hafna making other mags as well? Is the
• 26:55
  equivalent? Pretty much? Okay? What's mastheads? Uh? Masts are,
• 27:02
  to the best of my understanding, they're the list of people involved in making
• 27:06
  the magazine. Ah, because she says quick reading mastheads. Yeah, but
• 27:11
  except the way I always viewed it was like the master that was like the
• 27:15
  title, that's weird, unless it's the because she's like, I can't,
• 27:21
  I won't. It's like, what is it? Because she read in the
• 27:23
  masthead that Larry Finn, Well, yeah, I'm gonna look this up.
• 27:27
  Because last head must the highest part of a ship's mast. That's not it
• 27:30
  the title of a newspaper on magazine at the head of the first or editorial
• 27:33
  page. So maybe it says it's the list at the top of the page
• 27:37
  that includes the name of editors, writers, and owners. Okay, so
• 27:41
  it's it's everyone involved with the making of it. So she's just paying attention
• 27:44
  to detail. Basically, Yeah, because I'm reading the fine print. I
• 27:47
  think a lot of people who read magazines would not necessarily well, yeah,
• 27:51
  it would not necessarily go oh my god. The copy editor on this was
• 27:56
  such and such ye home and then arrives with very other pacifiers slash dummies,
• 28:00
  Syntho nip Kitty cork was another one's thumps to to acutete bink one need too
• 28:04
  and the receipt you did have them in your note didn't look at No,
• 28:08
  I didn't look enough. No, cheat, cheat Maggie. She's now crying
• 28:15
  NonStop, and Santas Little Helps says the day by giving her a squeaky toy,
• 28:18
  and they're gonna get his heart member treated as opposed to see how it
• 28:21
  goes, which you know that isn't approach that many pet owners take. We'll
• 28:25
  just see how it goes, and it usually ends well. It's great,
• 28:29
  but unfortunately the prices that get charged it's hard sometimes to afford that shit everything
• 28:34
  costs these days, everything is very very pricing, and some people are taking
• 28:40
  advantage of that. I'm not going to say vets. I'm not going to
• 28:41
  say all vets. I'm gonna say supermarkets. I'm not gonna say petrol stations.
• 28:47
  I'm gonna say drug dealers. So the squeak, though, is unfortunately
• 28:52
  keeping Homer up at night. Not anybody else though, And he goes downstairs
• 28:56
  to watch TV for a while, sees the ad for Nappian. He need
• 29:00
  help from a drug that help us here, meet Nappian. Nappy and activates
• 29:12
  your brains napping centers and attacks. Your bodies are wakigens and unlike Sleepier,
• 29:17
  it won't cause foot fattening or elbow stink very much like at late night ad,
• 29:22
  isn't it? Oh? Do they still exist? Do they still make
• 29:26
  ads targeted for people being uplead at night? Because the thing is people coming
• 29:29
  coming from work now they're probably waking on Netflix and shit like they're not whacking
• 29:32
  on sweed air TV or they're probably just whacking it. Yeah, I'll do
• 29:34
  it at work, and so you're doing it right now. This is your
• 29:40
  job. It's very much a late twentieth century early twenty first century kind of
• 29:47
  thing when people still watch television show they say, watch hot Dogs at night,
• 29:51
  watch hot Dogs up late? Yeah, good show. Bora A Big
• 29:55
  Brother The latest incarnation just did not even go the whole full episode like four
• 30:00
  or that is canceling. Yes, the people are still in the house now.
• 30:03
  They haven't been told. It's like that. It's like that Japanese soldier
• 30:06
  who was still fighting World War Two? But is the show canceled and they
• 30:07
  didn't tell them. I don't. I'm gonna look this up because that would
• 30:11
  be fucking hilarious. Imagine anything they do. They're on TV. We can't
• 30:15
  tell them. We already paid them. They locked the doors leaving there.
• 30:21
  They're now part of the or whatever it is. Dream was it dream World?
• 30:23
  Is that what they used to film? It used to be a dream
• 30:26
  World? Big Big Brother Australia twenty twenty four because the ratings were terrible,
• 30:30
  right, oh yeah, absolutely, Oh it has been canceled And that was
• 30:33
  on the ninth of January. They can't still be in the house though they're
• 30:37
  not in the house eight weeks later. Where do you think they're going to
• 30:41
  come back? It's kind of like the fucking boys when they get locked in
• 30:44
  the room by Skinner get their free bikes, they send one over the fence
• 30:49
  to try and get to help them. Big Brother. The Australians would probably
• 30:52
  been canceled. We're not returned to our screens in twenty twenty four. That's
• 30:56
  it was last year. I thought it was this year, Big Brother and
• 31:00
  I was Gladiators this year, wasn't it? And that one. Well,
• 31:02
  a lot of stuff that we used to rely on is just not doing as
• 31:06
  well as it used to. What was called the House of Love this year
• 31:08
  apparently diverted from the show's original concept and focused more on love and romance between
• 31:12
  the contestants. Weren't they all like young people at the same age, And
• 31:15
  it's just like the whole purpose is to have a a broad scale of society.
• 31:21
  Yeah, I mean, if you're going to pull that shit of like
• 31:22
  it's a social experiment and at least try otherwise you're just doing love Islan in
• 31:27
  their house. There was a finale and only garnered one hundred and fifty two
• 31:30
  thousand viewers. Lets we have a month monthly downloads. That's crazy. We're
• 31:38
  more listeners than they have viewers. Okay, start putting that on the on
• 31:41
  the promo sheet that we're sending out to advertise four Big discap more popular than
• 31:45
  Big Brother. So they show you got canceled. Oh yeah, yeah,
• 31:52
  it was weren't a puppy this year. But Homer takes nappy and thinks it's
• 31:56
  not working. Then it's knocks him out and he wakes up and all the
• 32:00
  food has been eaten, I believe, out of the fridge, and someone
• 32:01
  has tied toy cars to the dog's feet and set up a domino of Homer's
• 32:07
  head with Matt grainings down the bottom. With all the VHS tapes. That's
• 32:09
  what we get the chat that you mentioned earlier. So this is nighttime cookiness.
• 32:14
  It is exactly Yeah. So he says it couldn't been me as was
• 32:16
  wearing my special domino setting up knee pads, which he is. And this
• 32:20
  is where Lisa mentions here ambient I mean nappy, and so that's their way
• 32:22
  of sort of saying this is what we're in case you didn't get it,
• 32:27
  it gives you dry mouth, mood swings and nighttime coocuness. Now this mood
• 32:30
  swings bit felt like Dan just improvising and then just animating. Animating to him.
• 32:35
  It was like, just say, mood swings in various ways, and
• 32:37
  Dan, we can you feel it? Can you feel? Thirty seconds?
• 32:39
  Forty seconds? This was absolute padding. Yeah, oh yeah, this was
• 32:43
  more padding than the Dominic's Domino pads. Yes, yes, exactly. But
• 32:47
  he wakes up the next day and he's with John Lennon in bed in the
• 32:51
  Rock and Roll Museum. Now they give the guard here the wise guy voice,
• 32:54
  but he doesn't look like the wise guys. So odd. It's like
• 32:59
  using the White Watch have the wise guy voice. Yeah, yeah, goes
• 33:04
  from job to job. Yeah, that's that's what he does. But then
• 33:07
  Rod and Todd rock up with Flanders and they asked why I did this,
• 33:12
  and they say it says you' confusing drugs with drugs and they run away scared.
• 33:15
  I didn't quite get that either, just because they're drugs, prescriptions drugs
• 33:19
  versus real drug I'm know that, but it's like they've un away scared.
• 33:22
  Now whatever, there's a look we'll like, you know, so far into
• 33:25
  the episode and we haven't got to the story yet. There's a lot of
• 33:28
  real swing and miss when it comes to the gags and this also, Yes,
• 33:31
  this story is taking forever to get going. Yes, it hasn't mentioned
• 33:36
  the five hunting yet. So then Homer tells the kids to lock him in
• 33:37
  the bedroom from the outside so we can't get out, but just suggest why
• 33:40
  it's just quit and he said, you can't. Now, this is an
• 33:43
  iconic moment, iconic quote that gets used all the time, and for some
• 33:46
  reason in my brain, it came from an earlier episode, like we'd already
• 33:50
  had it on. But it's not similar to the twenty dollars can buy many
• 33:53
  peanuts line of the oh, I have three kids and no money? Why
• 33:58
  can I have no kids in three money? That's really popular with like Simpson's
• 34:04
  means and shit like that. Now, so I've heard from you, Yeah,
• 34:07
  I don't think I've ever actually seen it, and really, yeah,
• 34:09
  in the wild you're telling me it is. It gets used a lot in
• 34:13
  memes of parents, like kids, Am I art? When You've got no
• 34:19
  money? Like why? People usually say why can I have no insert title
• 34:22
  and three money? Yeap. Homer is now a zombie in his room,
• 34:27
  bar gets the idea to take advantage of his fat suggestable zombie dad. Are
• 34:30
  they go and pick up Millhouse, He gives Millhouse a haircut, and then
• 34:34
  Milhouse a twenty twenty starle heck, yes he does, indeed, Yeah,
• 34:37
  what is it? Well? I look at those haircuts now and I was
• 34:39
  like, during COVID this was kind of a thing, but like, you've
• 34:43
  missed the mark. Now we're still doing Why are you still doing it?
• 34:45
  It's not funny anymore? Is it ever meant to be funny? I think
• 34:49
  it was just meant to be, you know, I'm more of an ivonic
• 34:52
  haircut. But now it's just ah, it's like, oh, you're actually
• 34:54
  doing this. Yeah, But then we get the zombie montage. I love
• 35:00
  the song that gets played during this, it's what is it then? Dirnt?
• 35:04
  Is it Frankenstein or Franken? Oh? Is it frank Zion by the
• 35:07
  Edgar Winter Group. Yeah that one. Yeah, don't Darn't d Dirt?
• 35:09
  Such a cool song. By the way, Millhouse's hair are all these events
• 35:14
  are meant to be taking lays over one night shoot. So his hair go
• 35:17
  back to an organ. His hair grows back pretty dark. Of course it
• 35:21
  does, because it was very important. We had that stupid haircut joke.
• 35:24
  It was yes, so yes, he's having the street fight with the four
• 35:30
  to twenty guy. Thursday, there is it? What's the drug days of
• 35:31
  four? Twenty four twenty is the time of day Thursday the twentieth, is
• 35:35
  what it says on this guy's chain. So he's become known as like the
• 35:39
  the go to meme for like when it's drug, when it's time to blaze
• 35:44
  it. Yeah, but he's wearing the But when did he first appear?
• 35:45
  So it's Thursday the twentieth, so be prepared to post this this Simpsons meme
• 35:49
  And that's just the picture of him, but it's from a different episodes twenty
• 35:52
  and five pranks. The rap he first appears I'm thinking of is that is
• 35:55
  that Thursday the twentieth or Thursday the since Thursday the twentieth, that's what he
• 36:00
  gold Check, the guy who was fighting in the street fight said the first
• 36:02
  chain, it was that guy. Yeah that's callback. Yes, I guess
• 36:07
  it's big, I guess. But what are something In the montage, we
• 36:12
  get them sliding down Homer on the hill, dressing him up as a woman,
• 36:15
  putting him into Mo's and Moe's closer for the night because he's obvious gonna
• 36:17
  have his way with Homer. Then they wake him up by smashing his head
• 36:21
  into walnuts, my car, millhouse nut meat, and he crashes into the
• 36:24
  fire station, spills some chili, and then the fire fighters all slip into
• 36:29
  the cage. Question, why would the fire dogs attack the firefighters? It's
• 36:34
  not like they're releasing them from prison? Like why why would the dogs want
• 36:37
  to attack them? Because they're covered in chili? But why? But why
• 36:39
  are they angry at that? It's like they it's like wolves. Yeah it
• 36:43
  was, Yeah, they poorly animated. It should be like almost so hungry
• 36:46
  and they lick it off. It's a stupid story. Look, why would
• 36:51
  they Why would the fire fighting dogs attack the firefighters regardless of the chilly basically
• 36:54
  because you know, firefighting dogs usually Dalmatians, the sweetest dog in these dominationis
• 37:00
  doesn't make any sense to deal with this episode, you just have the start
• 37:04
  of home saying, remember that time when I was a firefighter death bid?
• 37:12
  Then we get the new support and the town is now without a fire department.
• 37:15
  What do you think of this next moment? Sir? How does it
• 37:16
  feel knowing that no one is coming to save you? Well, not as
• 37:20
  bad as knowing that somewhere gays, you're marrying each other. That's the real
• 37:23
  emergency camp. Once again, crisis has brought out the best of us that
• 37:29
  came out of fucking nowhere. It really did. What on earth were they
• 37:32
  trying with? This? Just really ham fisted social commentary about Ask anyone about
• 37:37
  anything and they'll always just give you their worst opinion on something. You put
• 37:42
  a camera or you put a microphone or a camera on someone and instantly they're
• 37:45
  going to show the show you them truth zofilter, Yeah, show you their
• 37:51
  true self. Violence brings out the best of us. I was just like,
• 37:55
  that is so has nothing to the episode nothing, and we just don't
• 38:01
  have so many of these throughout the recent episode. Doesn't fit the vibe of
• 38:05
  the episode, doesn't fit the theme of the episode. I was just like,
• 38:07
  what on earth anyway? So a poo skinner and more than an agree
• 38:14
  most says me too. One two, well, I'm I'm not the first
• 38:17
  one. Yeah, was actually not a bad game. They then make them
• 38:21
  more officially firefighters. Quimby says the firefighters because they were the first four who
• 38:23
  turned up Lenny and Carl and Rock as well. I'm like, why can't
• 38:28
  we have an extra couple two extras might help in a fire, but no,
• 38:31
  they send him away, and millhos most says louds to civilians, we
• 38:35
  shot a burn them all on hell, they're their fire chief mode. Homer
• 38:37
  is now excited and he's waiting for the fire alarm to go off because he
• 38:40
  wants to know, save someone from a fire, who wants to put it
• 38:44
  out. Also, you may have noticed that Maggie has a new pacifier in
• 38:45
  this story, which I was, Okay, we didn't explain how or why?
• 38:50
  No, no, so what was the story? What was said?
• 38:55
  It all up at the very start, and then we just decided to ignore
• 38:58
  it. What was the that makes me angry? We're almost there, we're
• 39:02
  almost halfway through the episode that we haven't We just got to the fire,
• 39:06
  Yes, we just got to the fire works or the fire station. They
• 39:10
  eventually goes off after all these different home of moments in the shower and the
• 39:15
  opera and things like that, and what the hell is that? And he
• 39:17
  again, when I come back in to be a soggy, smoky hero,
• 39:21
  he says, Mmm, soggy smoky heroes Like that doesn't make any sense because
• 39:25
  normally it's He's assuming it's food of some kind. Well, there is the
• 39:30
  hero sandwich? Is there? Okay? I apologize that I didn't know that.
• 39:32
  What is the hero sandwich? Well, it's basically not the sandwich you
• 39:37
  had at the it's not it's all coming together. We didn't we didn't plan
• 39:42
  this or did we. But it's generally a big, thick sandwich. And
• 39:46
  that's the thing. Because sandwiches have different names in different American cities. It's
• 39:51
  called a grinder somewhere or a hogi. I do know hog yeah, but
• 39:54
  the hero sandwich. Let's have a Philly cheese steak. Philly cheese steak?
• 40:00
  Is that just called Philly cheesteak? The matter where you go though, it
• 40:02
  was the only outside of America we call it Philly cheese steak. That's what
• 40:06
  it's mostly known as. It could well be the case. What's the difference
• 40:07
  between the hero sub grinder and hogi? It all depends on where you live,
• 40:12
  says eater dot com, my new favorite site. Even happens in Australia.
• 40:16
  You go to Queens and you ask for a potato cake. They have
• 40:19
  no idea what you're talking about it. I'll say potatoes scollop. Yeah,
• 40:21
  it's like I don't want to scollop going back to Victoria screw. A suber
• 40:28
  is at least six inches long, that's what she said. And it's constructed
• 40:30
  with a combination of meat, cheese, fixings. Everybody loves fixings and dressing.
• 40:36
  Usually serve cold, so like subway, and you don't get your subway
• 40:39
  toasted. I haven't had subway in so long. I haven't had subway in
• 40:43
  so long either. I used to have every single day when I was at
• 40:45
  fours. It's just across the road. And it was the healthy option of
• 40:47
  KFC macas and all that. But is it is more healthy's necessarily? How
• 40:54
  It's like sushi. Everyone goes, Oh, sushi is healthy. It's healthy.
• 40:58
  Yeah, you know, there's rice in there. It will fill you
• 41:02
  right, very a lot of killo jewels in those sushi. Indeed, indeed,
• 41:07
  hero sandwich you will normally find in New York City, alright, Apparently.
• 41:10
  New York Times Herald Tribune columnist Clementine Paddleworth described in said in nineteen thirty
• 41:17
  six, it was a sandwich so large you had to be a hero to
• 41:20
  eat it. I'm glad I didn't understand the joke was there now? I
• 41:22
  know what a hero sandwich is. You had fun and you learned a little
• 41:25
  something too. Well, at least you learned a little something March. So
• 41:29
  I hope you come back. Just come back alive, Okay, don't tell
• 41:30
  me how to do my job. The first place they save is look,
• 41:32
  I hate it when that happened. I can see you're just state. I
• 41:36
  was like, March shows genuine Sinceeraiity and Home has just been a fucking jerk.
• 41:43
  Yeah, and not in a kind of That's also an issue of this
• 41:46
  episode. They don't until the very last bit with the poo getting like the
• 41:50
  thing falling on all of him, they don't emphasize how fucking dangerous being a
• 41:52
  firefighter is. Absolutely yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm not wrong in this
• 42:00
  episode, let's get throw it. She says, don't come back alive.
• 42:04
  Like I said, please come back alive. They save Luigi's. He offers
• 42:08
  them a bunch of free food as a result. Is first it's mentioned that
• 42:12
  their volunteer is not getting paid. Then they say wolf Castle another line here
• 42:16
  that gets explained, so he goes, you're the real deal as opposed to
• 42:20
  my movie The Real Deal, which was in fact not the real deal.
• 42:22
  You didn't need to say the last bit. I think this is where I
• 42:24
  wrote down a lot of not very good jokes or inverted Korma's jokes. But
• 42:31
  you could just ended it with as opposed to my movie The Real Deal.
• 42:34
  We get it. That's why you said as opposed to that's the joke there.
• 42:38
  Allow your listeners or readers or viewers to fill in the blanks and they
• 42:44
  will love you forever. Sometimes things need to be explained, but sometimes it's
• 42:47
  the best jokes are the ones where you go, ah, now I get
• 42:51
  it. What was the one before the real because he mentioned two movies?
• 42:53
  What was the one before the Real Deal? Oh? I can't remember because
• 42:57
  he said something like oh it's something which turned out out to be something,
• 43:00
  or my other movie the Real Deal. Let your brain make that other connections
• 43:04
  like oh oh, And it's almost like you came up with the gag yourself
• 43:08
  and we put you. Oh. I really love this show. It's like
• 43:12
  watching Frasier. I get these jokes. We're not telling you how to do
• 43:16
  your job sinceince HQ, but we are in fact telling you how to do
• 43:19
  your job. This just yeah, as we've said it earlier in this podcast,
• 43:22
  just just felt very much, we're doing a movie, guys, that's
• 43:24
  more important than this episode. Let's just slap something out of there. So
• 43:27
  yeah, more usually I would do these reviews, and I enjoyed the episodes
• 43:30
  more. I'm not hating this episode, but it's just it's pointing out,
• 43:37
  yeah, a lot more than usual. But yes, they've saved wolf Castle
• 43:40
  and it gives them the jackets and marches very excited to get her jacket,
• 43:44
  which is the I shoot your face. I just like the broken I shoot
• 43:47
  your face with the lever sleeves though, I mean I like the chi points
• 43:52
  to that because I remember I was about let themon jackets, right is what
• 43:57
  they call? Yes, Yeah, and I want David Letterman show Letterman jacket.
• 44:00
  That would be nice. I don't think. I don't think there are
• 44:05
  a piece of apparel that actually ages all that well. I think they've intended
• 44:10
  to sort of don't look cool. No, the Wors's Greatest jacket. But
• 44:16
  the Simpsons writers and animes or what not, the crew or were given Letterman
• 44:22
  jackets when the first episode aired. They were all in. They all went
• 44:24
  bowling to watch the first episode when it was on Fox for the first time,
• 44:28
  and these jackets are worth a lot of money now you can get Yeah,
• 44:30
  way back in the day there was well in Australia we have the TAB
• 44:36
  which is off track betting for for horse racing, and I think back in
• 44:42
  the late addies they tried to branch out into gaming as well, the Poky
• 44:46
  Poky escentually with a company called tab Corp and some real Well, my dad
• 44:52
  was a bit of a gambler. He liked to see that. Oh yeah,
• 44:55
  not his horse racing didn't he did. Indeed, for some reason,
• 44:59
  he ended up like a tab core letterman jacket. It was black or black
• 45:05
  with black leather sleeves. Back in eighty eight or eighty nine, I was
• 45:08
  like that pretty cool jacket, except it had tab Corp embroidered into over one
• 45:15
  breast with like a big tea and tab Corp. And I'm like, this
• 45:21
  jack is really good. If this jacket was just basic black, I'd be
• 45:22
  happy to straight around and I'd be like be the coolest boy in tan,
• 45:27
  except I'd be chilling tab Corp. And I was always looking, always like
• 45:30
  can I get a patch? And I put her out? But what sort
• 45:32
  of petri put it? What's what's that cigarette? Floaty? You had,
• 45:37
  oh, Peter Starvitz. Yeah, yeah, I've tried to find that since
• 45:40
  I fear it has lost the time and just my memory. But yeah,
• 45:46
  a letnmon jacket. Varsity jackets also, I don't mind a varsity jacket.
• 45:52
  I think they're probably the same thing. Yeah, I think they're similar.
• 45:53
  Yeah, but yeah, I've always wanted to wear one, but I just
• 45:58
  I know that I couldn't pull it off. I think a very few people
• 46:01
  could pull it off. I think it's maybe bif Tannan is the one person
• 46:05
  who can. You look at them and you're like, you're got to be
• 46:07
  a bully. I think you have to be very much a certain shape,
• 46:12
  either a big dude or a bully. Yeah, weather Oms. People just
• 46:20
  give you this stuff. It's the least they can do after we saved him
• 46:23
  from being MELTI faced weirdos. I don't date to do some sort of compensation.
• 46:29
  After all, we're volunteers, that's right. Pool people always because we're
• 46:31
  heroes. It's even on my business card. I printed him on the back
• 46:36
  of my old business cards. See it's different. Then they save mister Burns.
• 46:39
  This whole footing into the power lines bit, just whatever, let's croon
• 46:44
  I was written here. What the fuck is this? He thinks Smithers didn't
• 46:46
  make it, but he did, but he's gonna get pai for the week
• 46:49
  because he thought he was dead again. What's happening here anyway? Whatever gives
• 46:55
  them nothing? Oh how I hate you and closes the door. And that's
• 46:59
  the thing. Them stealing should have come from somebody who didn't deserve to have
• 47:05
  the stuff stolen from, so like it should have been. They rescued a
• 47:07
  lady and like, oh I liked that that thing as I was saving her
• 47:09
  cat. I might take that with me. As opposed to mister Burns treating
• 47:13
  them like shit. It's like, as a viewer, you're going, well,
• 47:15
  you're treating them like shit, so fuck him. I think it should.
• 47:19
  I stand by my earlier position, which is rich people short of fucked
• 47:23
  them over for all their hard efforts and all that kind of stuff. So
• 47:27
  yeah, it starts with, oh, we're stealing from the rich, it's
• 47:29
  fine, and in the end the actually that's the justification because it's not.
• 47:32
  It's not because we are volunteers should be. It's only from the rich.
• 47:37
  And then they run wild like you said they do. Yes, that's not
• 47:39
  what happens. That's not what happened. Most sees the amber. And when
• 47:43
  I first watched yourselfought was he know Bernie's house down I thought that myself I
• 47:45
  was in through his bedroom or something. But no, he blows into the
• 47:49
  room of priceless treasures, do not loots as on the door, and since
• 47:52
  the valuables are smoke damaged, they justify it and taking it and then save
• 47:57
  Costington's But they still a lot of the stuff because it always vaporized in the
• 48:01
  fire, including a high end stereo sized had shoes and some stuff that Homer
• 48:06
  wanted. And also the big sea on Costanton. Yeah, there's a toilet
• 48:08
  seat and the justifocation here from Costington himself, where you must be telling the
• 48:12
  truth to firefighters. I mean a firefighter could tell me anything, I would
• 48:15
  believe them. Oh yeah, you guys are actual real life heroes. As
• 48:20
  with a lot of episodes, there's a germ of a good idea about how
• 48:23
  you trust certain people, or you trust certain figures of authority to do right
• 48:28
  by you, and that puts them in a pretty prime position to take advantage
• 48:31
  of you. Yeah, but then we get this where obviously we're skinner starts
• 48:35
  to realize things aren't exactly how they should be. Here, we're not necessarily
• 48:38
  doing the right thing. I think every group needs a nerdy guy, don't
• 48:42
  they. That's the thing. I think any group like this and it's probably
• 48:45
  good that they only had the four yep. I mean it would have been
• 48:47
  good to have Leny Carlin there. But yeah, you need to have the
• 48:52
  ring leader. You need to have the person whose conscience gets are better on
• 48:54
  that, and you need to have someone in the middle who's like, you
• 48:57
  can see both sides. There's an event, but eventually goes to the good
• 49:00
  and that's got to be home. You think most of the ring leader,
• 49:01
  Oh yeahs the one who definitely feels aggrieved and feels fucked over and it's like,
• 49:07
  yeah, we're gonna take these rich snaps roll they get what's a pooh
• 49:09
  in this situation? Neutral along for the ride? Yeah, he's just there
• 49:15
  to have a good time. Cannot the pool just have a good time.
• 49:20
  Who do you think is the you know in heat, the guy with the
• 49:22
  long hair, the fucking wild card who's wine grow Yeah, that's smow,
• 49:25
  you reckon. I see most of the leader though, there isn't really a
• 49:30
  wing grow and this is there. No, but every good heist needs one
• 49:34
  of those guys. Like a highest movie, it needs a loose canon who
• 49:37
  just fucks everything up for everybody. It's like it'd be a fun role to
• 49:43
  play as well. I reckon, Oh, absolutely, have you. I
• 49:49
  don't like Dane Cook. I listened to his stuff now and cringe, right,
• 49:52
  but he does do a bit on Heat. Have you ever listened to
• 49:54
  that? Look up Dane Cook Heat. I listened to it about six months
• 49:59
  ago, and I'm like, it's still pretty funny, just talking about how
• 50:01
  he like Dank Cook says I want to be part of a heist, and
• 50:05
  just he runs through all the characters in Heat, and it's just it's very,
• 50:07
  very funny. I'm looking at Dane Cook Heat. No, that's coming
• 50:09
  up as twenty one year old wife? Oh is she twenty one? Something
• 50:14
  like she's maybe twenty two take a few years months. Uh. He's actually
• 50:22
  googling Dane Cook wife as we speak people just to get her actual age.
• 50:27
  But skinner, he is pointing out, I'm too sure about this. Things
• 50:29
  have crossed the lines. She's twenty four, she's twenty four. He's a
• 50:31
  happy one. The mooth threatens him, calls him whole pass and yeah,
• 50:35
  there's all it's not bad. They all know. I think even a pooh
• 50:37
  here, your next buy is going to be in hell and things like that.
• 50:40
  So basically that is they're threatening, they're bulliing. Is that one guys
• 50:44
  like, I know, she sure made these guys, and they bully him
• 50:45
  into going along with the right. And usually those poor guys get caught up
• 50:49
  in it as well and also get or they're the one that weasel on them
• 50:52
  when they all get arrested. Eventually, it varies from stories. They usually
• 50:55
  get fucked over there and they get beaten up in prison or never, and
• 50:59
  it never ends well. The soft guy in these groups, I don't think.
• 51:00
  No, they usually end up. Oh they were the best of us,
• 51:05
  and they were the first one to get killed in the heist. It
• 51:07
  usually makes our protagonists, maybe me, feel some small tinge of conscience.
• 51:12
  He looks the other way, but they're still still in the jump from the
• 51:15
  museum. Then the alarm goes off and Homer is on his way. He
• 51:16
  excited because much his birthday is coming up. I think what you would treasure
• 51:21
  most is a gift bought through honest effort, because the integrity, trust exploitation.
• 51:29
  They're Golden rule, rule model, serious crime, zero tolerance, the
• 51:36
  ten Commandment. Then they drive past the swimming pool, which is as we
• 51:39
  mentioned earlier. They're at the front of the family. Next time, don't
• 51:43
  we make it? Does that in the pool? Don't say anything or say
• 51:44
  it quietly, don't announce it. And they see how we drive past,
• 51:46
  and march says what every boy should see their father as a hero. And
• 51:50
  they arrive at the Sharper Markup. That's the place we talk about. Yeah,
• 51:52
  well, I think there was a chain of stores called the Sharper Image
• 51:58
  okay that sold on of crap but high end but marked it up. High
• 52:02
  end crap that marked up. It's like I don't really need stuff you'd find
• 52:07
  like an executive death like that perpetual wave thing that would go from side to
• 52:10
  side. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think a lot of stuff like
• 52:14
  that. Or eBay killed all of those places, right probably in that killed
• 52:17
  so many things. But they steal him stealing. They still they see him
• 52:21
  stealing and should say and pooh and moa bowing down king of thieves, We
• 52:24
  worship you. And he's stealing five Segways at once, and we cut to
• 52:30
  Marge yelling at him, confronting him in the kitchen, all the Segways driving
• 52:32
  around on the front lawn at the Simpson's house, and he says, we're
• 52:36
  not thieves, were scavengers. I was hoping for a jar Wars reference here,
• 52:38
  we didn't get it. Instead we got the beautiful Vulture, the heroic
• 52:42
  Taateworn't and America's Sweetheart the Maggot. But March says, kids, come in
• 52:45
  here and show your face the face that you had when you saw your father
• 52:49
  stealing, and hope it doesn't want to see it at all. Marches,
• 52:52
  well, you can make them stop by doing the right thing. Then we
• 52:53
  get another song in montage. As we said earlier, was sad Sad Eyes?
• 52:57
  Is that the song sad Eyes? I believe it? Yeap a couple
• 53:00
  of funny moment. The works station moment wasn't bad either with the dials yep.
• 53:04
  But then they're saving a building. I'm short building. It wasn't the
• 53:07
  end. They're saving some sort of fire or preventing a fire and home hotels
• 53:09
  Mo. They've perverted, yes, their duties as fireman May wants to make
• 53:14
  a change. But he sees the sold gold grandfather clock and you know it's
• 53:17
  been in his family for for forty seconds. He doesn't want to give it
• 53:21
  up. Then what about Naboo? Wait? Wait wait, wait wait,
• 53:23
  what about Naboo? Who is dead? I was Ian Coneta? Does this
• 53:30
  cut? Why you have just been up bood? Now this whole joke here,
• 53:38
  you've just been a pood very early two thousands of like punked and we're
• 53:43
  all about pranking people. I thought that year of the Internet was all about
• 53:46
  prank videos, wasn't it? Very much so? And then we took it
• 53:50
  too far. Now I feel like, do you see many prank videos anymore?
• 53:52
  You see sometimes you see like these two guys that do prank videos.
• 53:54
  I'm like, really, in twenty twenty four, we're still doing that.
• 53:58
  Yeah, you're just fucking annoying people. I think that's been replaced by stunts.
• 54:02
  And I don't mean like jack our stunts. I mean more like mister
• 54:06
  b style event stunts. Look, I try to avoid mister Beast friend at
• 54:12
  the pod, but doesn't he do things like we filled this swimming pool with
• 54:16
  a billion jelly babies. Experiments experiments social experiments it's like Mary at vers Side
• 54:22
  or Big Brother, your favorite showy eleven booth. He's still an da fance,
• 54:28
  absolutely, But maths is kind of like edging edging the lead. You
• 54:34
  know what, I really shits me and is it me? Besides that,
• 54:38
  the people that film themselves giving homeless people things, Yes, that was terrible
• 54:43
  fuck off. Any people come and saying, oh, of course you have
• 54:45
  to be negative because you have you look at the positive least his homeless guy's
• 54:49
  getting something. I'm like, he could have given it to me without feeling
• 54:51
  himself doing it. Oh, but you know, when people see this,
• 54:52
  it encourages them to go and do it. Like not fucking doesn't. It
• 54:54
  does not. It does not at all. If they wanted to do it,
• 54:58
  they would have already done it. Watch this and go, you know
• 55:00
  what, I'm going to give one hundred and fifty dollars to this homeless person
• 55:02
  for no reason besides the fact that I want to get engagement on my social
• 55:06
  media channels. Yeah, I mean, if you're gonna give one hundred and
• 55:07
  fifty dollars to someone, give it to your pals guying. And you know
• 55:10
  what happens. People watch this and they go and film themselves giving homeless people
• 55:15
  shit. That's all it does. That's all it does. Don't fuck off.
• 55:20
  There's one guy's like you went into McDonald's and bought like one hundred hamburgers
• 55:22
  and handed them all out saying, oh no, we just thought you'd wanted
• 55:24
  a hamburger, and people, I'm so thankful, thank you. Think I'm
• 55:27
  like, why do you film yourself? Who's this benefit? Who was getting
• 55:30
  who probably do to go to cheeseburger? Who was getting the most benefit out
• 55:34
  of this? And it ain't the guy getting the cheeseburger. It's the guy
• 55:36
  getting the thousands of likes and engagement. It's a result. It's also McDonald's.
• 55:40
  That's true as well. Yeah, don't tell me that McDonalds weren't part
• 55:44
  of that experiment. Now, I don't believe in nothing. I don't believe
• 55:46
  in nothing. Man. We're actually getting to the point where we can't believe
• 55:50
  anything we see on TV anymore very much. AI. I'm just like,
• 55:52
  have you seen like the Trump things and the like. They're just basically making
• 55:57
  fake press conferences now with people just like, really, oh shit, this
• 56:00
  looks real. I look at photos now and I'm like, oh, that's
• 56:04
  not real. Oh I thought that was real. It's scary. We're in
• 56:07
  for some tough sledding, folks. The next political campaign is going to be
• 56:12
  just you don't know what to believe expectable from discount to kind of pivot into
• 56:15
  conspiracy theories. We're going to be all Alixe Jones. But the problem is,
• 56:19
  though, is that even shit that is legit, you're gonna be questioning
• 56:22
  it. Oh yeah, that's the worst thing. Yeah, everything's going to
• 56:24
  be questioned now, which is scary times. But another about scary times,
• 56:28
  let's get into the end of this episode, which is arguably as scary.
• 56:31
  But they so he's been you've been a pood and the frame falls on him,
• 56:35
  so he sort of gets his come up and his home and then saves
• 56:37
  them both. My baby, my baby could do worse than growing up to
• 56:39
  a guy like you. And we get my main man there because why not?
• 56:45
  And home, and then it cuts on hombit of saying and that's kids
• 56:46
  that you know, that's the time we learned our lesson, and we sent
• 56:50
  the loop to skid Row and we get the bump of the future on his
• 56:52
  segway and I'm like, so you didn't I and this story. Did you
• 56:55
  you did not? You ended it? And yes, that was that?
• 57:00
  That was that. That was the end of Crook and Ladder. Crook and
• 57:04
  Ladder an episode that it was there. And I've read a lot of positive
• 57:07
  reviews online. If you enjoy it, more power to you. I thought
• 57:12
  this the first time I watched it. I seem to enjoy it more if
• 57:14
  it's one of those episodes that the more you review it and critique it,
• 57:16
  Yeah, the more you think about it, the yeah, they get this
• 57:20
  one's probably enjoyable. You just whack it on. But the more you think,
• 57:22
  like you said, it's just yeah, it's always enjoyable when you just
• 57:24
  whack it on, lots of lots of flaws. Do you wack on or
• 57:28
  whack off? Though I jacket? Do you whack on in order to wack
• 57:36
  off? What do you whack on in order to wa? That's good?
• 57:40
  I see where you're going with this. I refuse to answer the question.
• 57:45
  Take it fifth as the crate Kid number two? What do we learn?
• 57:50
  Would you learn for the episode? Mister Davis that one should not take parroting
• 57:52
  tips from a publication brought out by a man who also brought you barely Legal
• 57:58
  magazine. That is true. I learned that nuts had meat? Oh yeah,
• 58:04
  is that true? Is the nut meat? It is fun to say
• 58:08
  nut meat. It is fun to say it. But let's I'm going to
• 58:12
  a lot of googling this episode, because well, you know, it's better
• 58:15
  than talking nut meals nut meat, n meat meaning the part of the nut
• 58:21
  that is inside the shell and can be eaten. Wow, there you go,
• 58:23
  nut meat meats nuts of meat. I did not know that. From
• 58:28
  d forward, your names will be yeah, championship. The current leaderboard stands
• 58:31
  at this for season eighteen, we have the following in the first position,
• 58:37
  Philip J. Hawkin's on twenty three points in second position, Carl mull doon
• 58:40
  on seventeen, and Luke McKay in third on thirteen. Take it away,
• 58:45
  got a horse, racfolks. And you know, we've still got a few
• 58:49
  episodes left, so it's not a foregone conclusion, not at all. So
• 58:52
  let's see what happens with these points that I'm about to read out very very
• 58:58
  soon, Like now, okay, sorry, I'm doing all crooked ladder,

• 1:00:07

• 1:00:13
  find out who gave us Smoky the Bandit. That is Luke McKay three points,
• 1:00:19
  so he's still in third position. But he's now on sixteen points,
• 1:00:22
  so he is still nine points behind Philip j. Look, it's still a
• 1:00:28
  race. It's not quite a fuegone conclusion, as I said, So let's
• 1:00:32
  see how we go here. By the way, Josh Hally that was his
• 1:00:35
  first appearance on the leaderboards. One Josh getting in there wild card entry.

  Alrighty, So the current leaderboard now stands at Philip J. Hawkins in first
• 1:00:44
  position on twenty five points, Kyle muldoon seventeen points and second, and Luke
• 1:00:47
  McKay sixteen points in third position. See how we go as we approach the
• 1:00:52
  end of the season. Bail is here. Al right, it is now
• 1:00:57
  time for the male bag. All right, first question, he comes from
• 1:01:00
  our man. You know, you know his name, We all love him.
• 1:01:02
  It's Andrew JP and he says, what were your favorite magazines when you
• 1:01:07
  were growing up? His were Film Ink, Rugby League Week, Inside Edge,
• 1:01:10
  and Nintendo Magazine System. I was big on Disney Adventures. That's the
• 1:01:15
  book I tried to steal. My mum caught me. Remember that. I
• 1:01:19
  remember that story out the TV guide TV Guys. Another one I enjoyed,
• 1:01:22
  The Lights of Kid I enjoyed. There was a magazine called How My Body
• 1:01:27
  Works. Do you know How My Body Works? That series? I do
• 1:01:29
  not. Oh. That was like a It was one of those ones we
• 1:01:31
  had to go that the news agency had to like be on like a not
• 1:01:37
  a list, a subscription service, but you know, you know, like
• 1:01:43
  the earliest form of subscription has to fill out a form and like send it
• 1:01:45
  away and that send you books and shit like that in snale mail. Yes,
• 1:01:47
  yeah, I used to get goosebumps that way. And then eventually Mom
• 1:01:51
  was like, you're still reading these and I was like, I'm getting goosebumps.
• 1:01:52
  You tell me the story. Yeah. I was like, I'm not
• 1:01:54
  necessarily reading these goosebumps, but I've got like twenty of them. Now do
• 1:01:58
  I want to have the whole set? I remember my mum stopped at like
• 1:02:00
  forty two and I was like sixty in the collection. It just bothered me
• 1:02:04
  my whole life. I'm just going to get these last few. But I
• 1:02:07
  just enjoy how my body works. Wrestling magazines. I used to love wrestling
• 1:02:10
  magazines. What about you? What were your go to I was very big
• 1:02:13
  on magazines. My sisters will tell you that from when I was a little
• 1:02:16
  little boy, like tiny, I was reading the TV Week, which was,
• 1:02:23
  like I said, TV Week straight and equivalent of the TV Guide.
• 1:02:27
  It was awesome, man. It was a great man. It's still out
• 1:02:30
  there, by the way. It was genuinely exciting planning what you're gonna watch
• 1:02:32
  for the week. Harley and out so ets On this Saturday. Oh you
• 1:02:36
  know, Oh my god, there's two things on the same channel, or
• 1:02:37
  two things on the same note at the same time. I'm gonna have to
• 1:02:40
  dust off the not even dust off the VCR. But it's like that's going
• 1:02:44
  to be working overtime. Yep, and buy a magazine for me. Yeah.
• 1:02:45
  My film The Jones was satisfied by two American magazines. This is in
• 1:02:52
  the late eighties and early nineties. One was called Premiere and one was called
• 1:02:54
  Movie Line. These were both fantastic. They always had really great articles movie
• 1:02:59
  what a name move One was really good movie and so they were fantastic.
• 1:03:07
  I was always looking for sort of cheat codes on how to become cooler,
• 1:03:10
  smoother, more elegant, more worldly or whatever. So I find myself reading
• 1:03:15
  Gentleman's Quarterly aka GQ, which sort of like a men's interest fashion magazine Esquire
• 1:03:21
  as well, which I am still a subscriber to. It's got really good
• 1:03:23
  journalism and also you know, a lots of ads for belts Country Road Official
• 1:03:29
  sponsors. Very much the case else. One of my favorite mags this is
• 1:03:35
  going way back to the nineties, but it was called Details and it was
• 1:03:38
  very much a generation X Style magazine. It was like a younger version of
• 1:03:42
  SA GQ or Esquire. Here's some cool flanners and here's this band coming the
• 1:03:46
  Seattle. It's kind of cool. They called Nirvana. So this will probably
• 1:03:51
  teach me I thing or two. I still have all these, by the
• 1:03:53
  way, I know there are a lot that I didn't throw out or give
• 1:03:55
  away. So there's at least of the six, maybe eight of those big
• 1:04:02
  plastic containers through my house that I just thought you were getting rid of all
• 1:04:05
  that magazine. Some I did, some I didn't, Okay, Yeah,
• 1:04:09
  but no, I'm keeping those. Yeah, that's what they will. They'll
• 1:04:14
  soak those in light of fluid and light them up. That's what they can
• 1:04:16
  cremate me with. I used to love in high school. Remember Zoom magazine,
• 1:04:24
  I do, just like those lad mags like HM. And it was
• 1:04:28
  like not poor magazines, but close enough where schools couldn't ban them because they
• 1:04:32
  weren't technically poor magazines, but they were close enough. Yeah, there was
• 1:04:35
  a really interesting not quite that. But again, in the early nineties,
• 1:04:42
  Australia brought out this thing called Black and White Magazine and I think only lasted
• 1:04:45
  maybe a dozen episodes. Or a dozen issues. It was very well put
• 1:04:48
  together, you know, great paper, very nice looking magazine. But what
• 1:04:53
  stood it apart was it was like, because this was a very progressive period,
• 1:04:56
  it's like, yeah, we're going to have these high Endustralian celebrities in
• 1:04:59
  various states of undress in kind of the artie nude for yeah photos, this
• 1:05:04
  is a reference and not a lot of people are going to get. I've
• 1:05:06
  forgotten what she was on, but there was an actress named Kim Wilson.
• 1:05:10
  Okay, she actually I think she went out with She wanted to be one
• 1:05:13
  of the last people to see Michael Hutchins before he died. Kim was I'm
• 1:05:15
  looking at it, I remember, yeah, yeah, and she was in
• 1:05:18
  I'm pretty sure she was in one of the issues and it was like came
• 1:05:21
  more from with her shirt on, but it's art. Black and White Magazine
• 1:05:28
  had a giggle with Black and White Magazine. It was black plus white,
• 1:05:31
  Black plus white. Okay, we've got Black and White Magazine, which is
• 1:05:34
  a bi monthly prit magazine for collectors of fine black and white photography. No,
• 1:05:38
  that's not it. Black plus white. Maybe aut Australia to it black
• 1:05:43
  Ye go petorically lead a photography, arts and popular culture magazine, publishing the
• 1:05:46
  show between nety two and two thousand and seven. So he had more than
• 1:05:48
  twelve issues. Oh okay, twelve years. It was launched ninety two and
• 1:05:54
  the final issue was eighty eight issues. So there you go. Okay,
• 1:05:57
  her shirt's off, but you're not seeing anything, so well, that's you've
• 1:06:00
  got to open the magazine. That's the front color. Oh okay. There
• 1:06:04
  was one more thing. I used to cut the Where's Wally books? They
• 1:06:08
  were really really popping when I was a kid. We're going from celebrity,
• 1:06:11
  not just to Wear's Wally and everything on the show. There was an animated
• 1:06:14
  show called The Animals of farthing Wood. I'm sure a lot of the nineties
• 1:06:16
  kids out there would would know what I'm talking about. And if you haven't,
• 1:06:19
  google it and it will unlock a core memory if you're gone, fuck,
• 1:06:23
  I remember this show. I can't believe I haven't thought of it for
• 1:06:25
  thirty years. But The Animals of farving Wood had a magazine as well.
• 1:06:28
  I used to collect a lot of collections when I was killed. I've always
• 1:06:30
  loved collecting, as you can tell. No, all right, we'll go
• 1:06:34
  to the next question, and it comes from our man Glenn Gomez. Have
• 1:06:38
  you ever volunteered to do a job? Hand job, John, There wasn't
• 1:06:44
  so much volunteering as like coerced. No, no, no, no.
• 1:06:46
  I don't know if I've actually volunteered to do anything like this, like volunteer
• 1:06:50
  firefighter or sassage one. I've done a few times. I know. I
• 1:06:55
  remember not long after we started working together, I was going down packing one
• 1:06:58
  day and getting my Saturday morning sausage and who should be behind the grille?
• 1:07:02
  But yeah, Dan or Nick? Do they still do that? I don't
• 1:07:05
  think they do. It's a shame in all honesty. I don't know if
• 1:07:09
  I've volunteered to do this kind of thing, but I have been. I
• 1:07:13
  am generally the kind of person who if I'm working at a place and like,
• 1:07:17
  oh, we could use extra hands to do this, I'll be like,
• 1:07:19
  oh, yeah, happen to help out. So I guess that's my
• 1:07:23
  thing. But didn't you help your brother in law or something, someone's brother
• 1:07:30
  or something who was like a real handy man, but he needed help with
• 1:07:32
  something like tech related and you were able to help him because you mentioned once
• 1:07:34
  how you're like, oh, he can fix anything, but he couldn't fix
• 1:07:38
  this problem, and you fixed it for him. I think that might have
• 1:07:40
  been right. That sounds like something I might have done for Rossi Rossi okay,
• 1:07:43
  Yes, the handiest man on two legs, Yes, okay, final
• 1:07:47
  question, It sounds like a circus freak on two legs, handsy Harrison McClure.
• 1:07:54
  Have you ever nicked something from a workplace? And what was it?
• 1:07:57
  I went forward closed. There were so many tools that I'm just gonna be
• 1:08:00
  left behind and but melted down. They were just like take whatever you want,
• 1:08:02
  and I'm like, I'm probably never gonna use this shit, but I'm
• 1:08:05
  gonna take this new hammer and these allan keys and all these tools, a
• 1:08:09
  whole box full of these tools from Ford and they all have like four gelonging
• 1:08:12
  grades. I'm like, that's a nice little that's an memory, yeah,
• 1:08:15
  memento. Yeah. Yeah. When I was working as a reporter in the
• 1:08:18
  newsroom of the Gelong Advertising, the main newspaper down here. This was back
• 1:08:24
  in the early two thousands when there was still money for newspapers and these like.
• 1:08:28
  We just had a really well stocked stationary cupboard and I would visit that
• 1:08:31
  shit on the regular, like, well, I could use another notepad.
• 1:08:34
  You ever fished the notepads you're using? Doesn't matter. I intend to take
• 1:08:39
  more notes in the future. By the way, free pens. I love
• 1:08:44
  having free pens. If there's a pen to be taken, I will be
• 1:08:45
  taking it. Oh yeah, I can never find one. I've had a
• 1:08:49
  million in this house. I can never find one. I will occasionally.
• 1:08:53
  My mum has a mechanic that she likes to take her car to to get
• 1:08:56
  serviced on the regular, and with the state of Mum's car, it's increasingly
• 1:09:00
  regular. Every time I go down, it's always like, oh, you
• 1:09:02
  all have to sign here. Oh yeah, and no worries I might keep
• 1:09:06
  this. Yeah, of course. I've got like six pens from this place
• 1:09:09
  and they're all they're good pens to so I'm like, yeah, don't trade
• 1:09:14
  in your car, mom. All right. That is our review of Crooked
