• 0:22
  dude, welcome two four figure discount. Where this week we are here
• 0:41
  to review episode h A B F zero seven from season seventeen of the Simpsons.
• 0:45
  It is Bart has two mummies. I am Endos and I am Guy,
• 0:49
  and we're all traveling this time around feeling okay. They're dando. Yeah,
• 0:56
  I'm doing well. We gave our Holly Hoo big girl bed finally,
• 1:00
  so she's wort two and a half an hour. And as it's been made
• 1:04
  well aware on this podcast, Holly is not a good sleeper. You know,
• 1:07
  she had silent reflex for a good couple of years there, and still
• 1:11
  you know, I was working up four or five times a night, and
• 1:12
  poor Nicholas, she was just getting tired and tired and tired. And we
• 1:17
  got Holly this big girl bed and maybe we worked out. Maybe it was
• 1:19
  just because she didn't want to feel trapped in that bed. Because now we
• 1:22
  say, hey Holly, last night, legitimately seven o'clock, Hey Holly,
• 1:25
  it's bedtime. She just got the couch, went into a bedroom, climbed
• 1:29
  into bed, put the blanket over and said nine eyes. I went to
• 1:30
  bed and stayed asleep for the entire night. I have never related to Holly
• 1:34
  Moore. I was just like, I was like, you're sure. She's
• 1:38
  like, daddy go, Daddy go. I'm like okay, then sort of
• 1:42
  walked. I was like, it's this happening. She was like no,
• 1:45
  nos closed the door, didn't hear from her all night. That is brilliant
• 1:49
  and a big load of everyone's shoulders of the dean. Yeah, it's fantastic.
• 1:53
  So it's just nice knowing that we're going to get some peaceful nights again
• 1:57
  more Nicolo, because you know Nicola does the grunt worked when it comes to
• 2:00
  nighttime. But yeah, so we having a great, great weekend here.
• 2:02
  I heard you had a big weekend. Did you got a Wu Tang Clan?
• 2:05
  Is that where you went to? Because I saw that playing in Melbourne.
• 2:07
  I'm like, Guy said, you went out and this looks like someone
• 2:09
  who Guy would go and see Guy had a big weekend with the lovely Louise
• 2:16
  did double shot of socializing. One of Lou's good friends had the fiftieth on
• 2:25
  Saturday night at this at this bar in Richmond up in Melbourne, so we
• 2:30
  made the trip up the highway from Geelong. We've got a very nice AIRB
• 2:35
  and b not far from from Bridge Road. Fantastic, the cozy little place.
• 2:38
  I was like, oh this is still It was one of those things
• 2:42
  where I felt like Bilbo Baggins. I was like, oh, this is
• 2:46
  so cozy and nice and I've got a comfortable chair. Oh my god,
• 2:49
  Raiders has just started on TV, Like do we have to go to this
• 2:53
  party? But we then went to I've never seen this before, I swear,
• 3:00
  oh the other thing, and I mentioned that hobbit. It was also
• 3:04
  very small and it had like a tiny bathroom door that you had to crouch
• 3:08
  down to get through it. Well I had to crouch down to get through,
• 3:09
  and lou was sort of sauntering through its saying I'm not bothered. But
• 3:15
  of course I cracked my head on the frame and just laid out this almighty
• 3:19
  fuck. But now we went to this party and it was fantastic because It
• 3:27
  was a very Generation X crowd. It was a costume part well, the
• 3:30
  invite said a bit of British Lou and I are like, well, I
• 3:35
  had costume parties. I'm not a fan, and I think Lou was too
• 3:38
  keen on finding. We sort of talked about a Harry and Meghan thing going
• 3:43
  on, but then the end it was just like, well, I'm wearing
• 3:45
  my rebox because it's got a good got a Union jack on and said I
• 3:47
  got a pair of socks that I got a fox on it. That's that's
• 3:50
  fox houndy and they're British raising green. I'm wearing those. We get there
• 3:53
  at least three Princess Diana's a whole bunch of dudes in Peaky Blinders costumes because
• 4:00
  well that's low maintenance and looked pretty cool. Loose friend Dave was dressed as
• 4:04
  any Lennox. He had the he had his haircut short and died orange and
• 4:09
  he's wearing a suit. Um but yeah, old generation next crowd. And
• 4:13
  the DJ was a guy I used to work with back in my street press
• 4:15
  days and he was just spinning banger after banger. It was set Mikey Kle
• 4:23
  Yeah aka Joey light Bomb. If you need a DJ, get in touch
• 4:27
  with this guy. He is fucking rad, good guy and great taste.
• 4:30
  And the drinks kept flowing and uh yeah, hit the dance Floorum we were
• 4:36
  out to like three am. So that was fantastic. That was that night,
• 4:41
  and then we're up in Malin as well because we were going to a
• 4:44
  concert the following night at the Forum. It was like a five band lineup
• 4:49
  and the headline act was a regurgitator who I'm I'm not a huge fan of,
• 4:54
  but lou loves their album Unit, and we went there with Loose son
• 4:57
  Isaac, who's you know, I'm no, he's jem Z, but he's
• 5:01
  very into ninety stuff as jem Z kids are regogitators more might year I think.
• 5:04
  Yeah, so yeah they did. They played Unit pretty much an entire
• 5:11
  in a bunch of their other songs as well. Polyester Girl. They played
• 5:14
  Polyester Girl. They played a couple of songs whose titles I should probably not
• 5:17
  say on this podcast because what's the one that goes what's in the end?
• 5:20
  What's it they? I think that's called black Bugs. That's Loose. Yeah,
• 5:25
  I played that definitely. That was It was a really good set.
• 5:28
  I mean, I wasn't a huge on Regurgitator back in the day, and
• 5:30
  I'm like, these guys are kind of like a mashup of red On Chili
• 5:32
  Peppers and Beastie Boys and almost like they clashed in some ways, you know
• 5:35
  what I liked about them. My memories of our Regogitator are finding black Bug
• 5:40
  was the song that I found on like one of those one percent hits,
• 5:42
  the Volume twenty five or whatever. I'm like, I don't know this,
• 5:45
  you know, it's not It's not Clup seven or Spice Girls. You know,
• 5:46
  I was still cop gear. Remember hearing that song, going this is
• 5:49
  a cool song. I really liked this song. So I loved when you
• 5:51
  bought those CDs and you found Gems. They never would have bothered hearing,
• 5:55
  but Regogitator they were in a thing called I think it was called Band in
• 5:57
  a Bubble and I want to say late nineties, maybe like two thousand era,
• 6:01
  where they recorded an album in a bubble in I think it was Melbourn
• 6:05
  or maybe Sydney. It's like a clear bubble that that people could just walk
• 6:09
  past and seeing it was in public and people were just watching them like animals
• 6:13
  in the Zoo recording this album. It was the first sort of like live
• 6:16
  reality experiment that was I was on tem like back when Channel V was sh
• 6:20
  Yeah, it sounds like something real good said it would do in all honesty.
• 6:25
  Yeah, they seemed like sort of smart as art school punks. Yeah,
• 6:30
  definitely, that's a fun memory. I remember like staying up late like
• 6:32
  watching because it was like constantly like a live stream. I remember what Big
• 6:34
  Brother up late where you'd lay in bed watching other people going to bandy.
• 6:40
  It was very Truman show, wasn't it. Yeah it was, yeah,
• 6:43
  but we watched it. It was really fresh. Yeah. Yeah, so
• 6:46
  there was goods. There was a band I'd heard of but never really heard
• 6:49
  called Dzy death Rays. It was sort of a metal they. Yeah,
• 6:53
  they went right the fuck off. That were fantastic, and Custer was playing.
• 6:56
  And Custer was of course fronted by Dave McCormick, who is the Blew
• 7:00
  his dad bendit. But yes, we're here today that to talk about Bart
• 7:03
  has two Mummies. Now, this is an episode that had two stories.
• 7:06
  Right, one day I thought was just pretty much whatever. The other one
• 7:09
  actually found very relatable from a dad being a father of a young kid the
• 7:13
  Flanders story. So seeing things from Flander's perspective where he's like always over protective
• 7:16
  and making sure his kids don't get hurt, I find myself at times being
• 7:20
  this way. You know, I'll go to the playground and letter's pretty high.
• 7:24
  Just let me make sure I put my hand behind you in case you
• 7:26
  fall or things like that. Nicolas like, ah, he'd be fine.
• 7:29
  I'm like, he won't be fine, because what will happen is I'll say
• 7:30
  he'll be fine, and he'll fall and you'll hurt himself, and then I'll
• 7:33
  be annoyed, and then the day will be ruined. And quite often,
• 7:36
  quite often I'll go there and I'll say, like three times, maybe maybe
• 7:41
  two times out of five, what I thought was going to happen in regards
• 7:45
  to potentially hurting themselves would have happened if I wasn't there to stop him or
• 7:48
  hurt Holly as well. So there is a need to do it. But
• 7:51
  I can also see Marge's perspective. Margin is Nicola in this equation where She's
• 7:55
  like, they've got to learn, and I'm like, yeah, but can
• 7:58
  we not teach him without them getting hurt? But so I've sort of mellowed
• 8:01
  in my way, so I've sort of the way Flanders learns in this.
• 8:03
  I've had to sort of just learn to sort of let the kids hurt themselves
• 8:07
  and learn that way as well. But I found that story very, very
• 8:09
  relatable. Also, the aspect of trusting people to babysit your kids, we
• 8:13
  still haven't got to that point yet. We've only That's probably why Nichola and
• 8:16
  I don't go out all that often. It's because nicholas family aunt here obviously,
• 8:20
  so we've got my parents to babysit the kids and they know the routine
• 8:24
  and things like that. We don't really have any friends that we sort of
• 8:26
  trust with kids because they haven't got kids themselves, or other friends who have
• 8:31
  kids had their own kids at bedtime, so they can't be here babysitting our
• 8:35
  kids at bedtime. And God love it, but I just don't trust my
• 8:37
  sister to keep my kids alive. So it was like trusting people to babysit
• 8:41
  my kids as something that we haven't quite worked out yet. So I can
• 8:46
  sort of I can rarely relate to it, to that Flanders story in particular,
• 8:48
  but I just thought the b plot was kind of random. I did
• 8:52
  hear in the commentary that they wanted to be plot. I think it was
• 8:54
  written by Dana Gould. This episode was it was a Dana Gould who it
• 8:56
  was, who's normally kind of liable. I think maybe he didn't miss no,
• 9:03
  no, he wrote the episode that I hated with the bart in the
• 9:05
  backyard that will the really long backyard. Okay, Well in that case,
• 9:09
  I don't think Dana Gould's going to be on our Christmas card list anytime soon.
• 9:13
  Because I was not a fan of this episode at all. I understand
• 9:16
  that you relate to it. I mean I relate to it because I was
• 9:18
  kidnapped by a monkey when I was a kid, but that's a story for
• 9:20
  another time. I was watching it, I mean looking over my notes in
• 9:26
  this and knowing that's not bad. That's that's not a bad joke. But
• 9:30
  for the most part, I came away from this going there's a lot of
• 9:33
  stuff in here that just doesn't land, that sort of feels like a joke.
• 9:39
  But the timing's all off or some of the phrasing is wrong, and
• 9:43
  it's hard to explain exactly why it doesn't work, but you just feel it
• 9:46
  in your bones, particularly a funny bone, because it's just not being tickled
• 9:50
  at all. Um. And some of it was just playing sad I mean,
• 9:54
  or I mean, look, I'm a sucker for our four legged ms,
• 10:00
  as any listener of the show knows, and I don't know, sort
• 10:03
  of walking walking down the hallway of some animal retirement zoo whenever it's like really
• 10:13
  getting into this. I'm not feeling this at all. Isn't it funny?
• 10:16
  How you know things happened to kids in the show and I'm like, oh,
• 10:18
  I just know from my father's perspective, like I just don't like this
• 10:22
  makes me sad, and you're like, oh, I fight it funny kids.
• 10:24
  And then you're like you're like, oh, but I liked to animals,
• 10:28
  and I'm like, oh, I love animals too, But you know
• 10:31
  whatever, Funny we have different perspectives on things. But well, yeah,
• 10:33
  I agree that was a sad city. I thought. The moment because it
• 10:37
  didn't have a payoff, it was just there just to be cruel. Was
• 10:39
  when Marge says that she was just patronizing Bart essentially, you know, humoring
• 10:45
  Bart, which he said he didn't fail at soccer, cuts to him crying
• 10:48
  and I'm like, what is the need to have that when there's no that
• 10:52
  doesn't have any bearing on the story. It's just a sad, mean moment.
• 10:54
  Yeah, see here is the big difference between town or I think I've
• 10:58
  got That was one of my favorite moment really. See that just further proves
• 11:03
  my point, Like, you know, when it comes to like you're got
• 11:05
  at the port Adam wasn't the cages. Meanwhile, fuck, but he's terrible
• 11:07
  at his sports. You're like, that's hilarious. It wasn't so my team
• 11:13
  crying. I mean, I'm not an absolute monster. I'm just a regular
• 11:16
  monster. But I just got a big kick out of March saying and how
• 11:22
  how he sucks. Think you're very I think you're on a very similar wavelength
• 11:28
  with the writing team of The Simpsons at this point. I think there must
• 11:31
  have been like, obviously there are a similar age, there are a similar
• 11:33
  age to you. There are a similar age to you. But I feel
• 11:35
  like a lot of the stuff that growing up I didn't find funny. I
• 11:39
  find funny in nows I get older, but you are at that age when
• 11:43
  it first came. So I feel like you guys are on the same wavelength.
• 11:46
  But I go back to when we were interviewed Matt Salmon and you guys
• 11:48
  are like change like fifteen minutes before we even started the show, and I'm
• 11:52
  like, do I speak here? You guys just get along like a house
• 11:56
  on fire. But yeah, yeah, so I had that as I've literally
• 12:01
  got my notes. What the fuck? What was the point of that moment?
• 12:05
  And you've gotten my favorites. That's fair, Okay, it's it's not
• 12:09
  actually been hit with the green pen, but it was. Remember I do
• 12:13
  remember chuckling at that though, just the big and how Yeah, I didn't
• 12:16
  like him. I thought Homer for a lot of this was dumb good moments
• 12:20
  of Homer and Hit in this But like I thought, I thought there was
• 12:24
  a lot of a lot more physical comedy with Homer in this episode. Where
• 12:28
  I thought the old mill bit went a little bit too long. I was
• 12:30
  like, well, this isn't really funny. It's just Homer getting hurt.
• 12:31
  It just feels like time filler. Yeah. I liked the for example,
• 12:35
  Homer breaking into Flander's house and you pretending to be the high school kid.
• 12:41
  I like out of that. I liked the news report where he had the
• 12:43
  tranquilds a gun, then he takes it. It's like Homer was revived by
• 12:46
  a stun gun later on things like that. But when he's just like,
• 12:48
  I'm big podcast, you have a mental problem, I was like, this
• 12:52
  isn't funny to me. No, that was a gag that was just stretched
• 12:56
  just maybe five ten seconds too far. Yeah, and there's been a lot
• 13:03
  of that lately, and in this episode there was a couple of those moments
• 13:05
  for sure. Yeah. But I did enjoy the Flanders story. I liked
• 13:09
  the fact that we got a Marge story that didn't revolve around Marge being mistreated
• 13:13
  or a margin at home, a breakup story. Looking at the mechanics of
• 13:16
  this or looking at the structure of it, yeah, look, it certainly
• 13:20
  makes sense. I think the idea of Flanders having to trust someone else with
• 13:26
  his kids, particularly you know, putting another female presence in their life after
• 13:31
  the death of his wife, exactly, that's the thing. He doesn't have
• 13:33
  anyone there to sort of say Flanders or Ned stand back for a second,
• 13:35
  because you feel like Maud would have been that person. She would you know,
• 13:37
  she would have gone along with Flanders, but at times she would have
• 13:39
  gone she seemed like the strong one in the relationship. She would have gone,
• 13:43
  ned, they're fine, let them be there. Yeah. But and
• 13:46
  also he has that fear because of what happened to Maud as well. Exactly
• 13:48
  right. So having that story or having that idea for a story, I
• 13:52
  think, I think it's fantastic. And having Marge as the person who has
• 13:56
  to sort of help him out in that regard works a treat. That's right
• 14:00
  now. As he said at the start, they need never B plot and
• 14:03
  the B plot about the monkey kidnapping Bart, and you know, this is
• 14:09
  a monkey Mother's lost, a monkey children. Thematically, it ties in,
• 14:13
  I guess, but it just felt so shoddily executed or it didn't gel with
• 14:22
  the other one even though it felt like it should. So Dana said in
• 14:26
  the commentary that his kids really liked the two thousand and five King Kong,
• 14:31
  so he wanted to work that into a story. Then they go, and
• 14:33
  he goes, even though we've a you know, we've already done that on
• 14:37
  the show in the Halloween, but you know, I wanted to do one
• 14:39
  with Barth. I thought Bart would have been a good character to use to
• 14:41
  the King Kong story. I'm like, I like the way that it did
• 14:46
  intertwine a sense that Rod climbed the steeple and he'd been doing that at the
• 14:48
  play center, So there's that's the way connected. But I know I'm watching
• 14:54
  this going. So Bart's been kidnapped to buy this monkey inside this cage and
• 15:00
  one female worker this entire place going, Oh, I don't know what to
• 15:01
  do. There's apparently there's a news report about it, but no one else
• 15:05
  is there helping. Why does no one just tranquilize it? Yeah, you
• 15:09
  can't think to call animal control this, Yeah, but it's just there by
• 15:11
  himself all night, And I'm like, this is too convenient for the story
• 15:16
  for me, like this, why is no one else going to help?
• 15:20
  Yeah? And what you were saying earlier, Sorry, just to go back
• 15:24
  a bit of talking about some of Homer's jokes that went on a little bit
• 15:28
  long or weren't even funny. They sort of like this is a joke in
• 15:33
  name only. Yeah, there's one of the very start with. I think
• 15:35
  Lenny and Carl they're talking about, oh, religion. Yeah, yeah,
• 15:41
  there's like they're they're playing the Halo game where they're trying to put the Halo
• 15:46
  on the on the Saints or whatever thought Saints had such fat heads, and
• 15:48
  you know they're talking about how, oh is this game a scam? No,
• 15:50
  just religion in general, and they're sort of playing it like a punchline,
• 15:54
  which it clearly is not. No. I'm just like, that's I
• 15:58
  know you think you're being I don't know what's controversial there, Like, oh,
• 16:03
  I can't believe it all said that, but I don't know, that's
• 16:06
  just making making a bold statement about religions, like not really do snay because
• 16:10
  it didn't. It's not funny or anything. I don't know. So there
• 16:14
  was sometimes and they emit this in the commentary that you know sometimes they blame
• 16:18
  budgets and I'm like, no, you can't blame the budget because you had
• 16:22
  a lesser budget in the early nighties and like this didn't happen. It was
• 16:26
  just a case of I think you guys just got a bit lazier. I
• 16:30
  think that may well be the case. I hate to break it to you
• 16:33
  guys, but yes, just straight up laziness. Take it down. Someone
• 16:36
  who knows. Yeah, if you're looking for a podcast, it'll always be
• 16:41
  there for you. Look no further than our new show that one About Friends,
• 16:44
  hosted by myself and my incredible wife, Nicola. She is literally the
• 16:48
  biggest Friends fan I know. So who better to help me as we revisit
• 16:51
  every single episode of the show, discussing the characters, fashion trends, and
• 16:55
  how this iconic series still relates to our lives to this day. But one
• 16:59
  of our friends is if Elble Now on iTunes, Spotify or wherever you find
• 17:03
  your podcast. Hey, my favorite. So what were your favorite moments from
• 17:08
  the episode and how a child was sad? Cry? If I can't go
• 17:18
  out and make a child sad on my own, the least I can do
• 17:21
  is watch it on The Simpsons exactly. This is shoddy research on my part,
• 17:26
  but please refresh me refresh my memory of the name of the baseballer who
• 17:30
  makes the cameo, Landy Johnson. Randy Johnson. Yeah, I was for
• 17:33
  some reason, I was thinking Ross Johnson. That's not right, but but
• 17:38
  Randy is always right. Apparently he was doing his stretches in between takes in
• 17:41
  the studios, the only person who was doing stretches because he was apparently during
• 17:45
  during his rehabilitation from an injury, so he had to keep his stretches going
• 17:49
  that's a very wise move. You should stretch down. No one should stretching,
• 17:56
  as I forgot because I used to stretch all the time playing football.
• 17:57
  Obviously i'n't playing football for ten years. And the other day went for a
• 18:00
  run and I didn't stretch. First, I was like, ah shit,
• 18:03
  it's like I'm so painful, but doing the stretches before I run. The
• 18:07
  other day I was like, I feel it so much more loose. I'm
• 18:10
  ready to go. I'm repped up. I'm reading. Yes, stretch every
• 18:14
  morning and night. I highly recommend it, even if it's just for like
• 18:15
  five minutes. Do it. Yes, your pals damn the one I tell
• 18:18
  you, do stretch morning and night exact. But but I liked I like
• 18:23
  Brandy just being very specific about what bears can do and can't do. A
• 18:27
  bear can't be a malt, it can't be at all. No. But
• 18:32
  was that a play on beanie babies? I guess, I guess so.
• 18:34
  But because beanie babies word bears, right, I never got into beanie babies.
• 18:38
  I think beanie babies were all manner of or were they be they beanie
• 18:41
  bears? There's beanie babies. I remember they used to be like these little
• 18:45
  bears like full of beads or whatever, and people used to go ape shit
• 18:48
  for them, and they got replaced by funko pops. Yeah yeah, I
• 18:52
  remember whenever I would go to the zoo with the lady in my life,
• 18:59
  we invariably pick up a little um stuffed animal. We had a few of
• 19:03
  them by the end, like one of these things will be for kids,
• 19:04
  and then we didn't have kids. Um so enough about that. But I
• 19:12
  think I don't have kids because then all you do is try and make him
• 19:15
  cry all the time. That's it's like your tears make me laugh? What
• 19:22
  else that I enjoy? I'm I'm a sucker for a word players, you
• 19:26
  know. So Ned being a bit of a music efficient this time around was
• 19:30
  kind of fun. I mean, what he's talking about is one of my
• 19:33
  kids are brazen cantos A shout out to the Led Zepplin song Dazed and Confused.
• 19:37
  I thought that wasn't too bad, and then I'm amazed that Ned knew
• 19:44
  the lyrics to Welcome to the Jungle and then was able to fashion them into
• 19:48
  Welcome to the Jungle gym. Yes, well, I feel like Flanders does
• 19:52
  his research, so he researches all the Devil's music just so he can preach
• 19:56
  why you shouldn't be listening to it. So he's done his research so he
• 19:57
  knows all the well what I was listening to Working to the Jungle yesterday because
• 20:02
  shout out by the way to muppet Mayhem, Muppets Mayhem, Muppet Mayhem.
• 20:04
  Yes, I think it's called on Disney Plus the new series. Great show,
• 20:08
  really good show, recommended for anyone of all ages. But it has
• 20:14
  a lot of old school music in there, so they're covering a lot of
• 20:15
  old songs. And one of the songs is rock and Roller all Night,
• 20:18
  So we're putting it on Rock and Roll all Night. So it's like it's
• 20:21
  introducing kids and my kids to like old school rock and roll music. And
• 20:25
  they were put on Spotify and then the next song started playing automatically played back
• 20:27
  into the Jungle. And I'll say to Nikola, is there a better light
• 20:30
  track one on a rock album? Then fucking Welcome to the Jungle, Like
• 20:34
  what other track one on a rock album goes, this is what You're gonna
• 20:37
  go? Gets you in the mood for a fucking heavy rock time. Welcome
• 20:41
  to the Jungle's gonna be up there, though maybe maybe he smells like teen
• 20:42
  Spirit on never mind. O think if I think about those as like track
• 20:47
  ones on which one like, those two are going to be right at the
• 20:48
  top for best track one on an album of all time? Right, absolutely?
• 20:52
  I mean I'm as much as I love Navana, I might have to
• 20:56
  give Gunners the edge here. Yeah, I think, yeah, Welcome to
• 21:00
  the Jungle is just yeah, it's a real announcement. It's like, well,
• 21:03
  exactly right. And I think the thing is, as much as I
• 21:07
  love Nirvana, my mum will still listen to Welcome to the Jungle, where
• 21:11
  she won't listen to smells like Teen Spirit. I feel like there's they're similar,
• 21:15
  but they're different in the sense that I feel like Welcome to the Jungle
• 21:18
  has so much more commercial appeal than what smells like Teen Spirit does, if
• 21:21
  that makes sense. Like, smells like teen spirits the perfect song for when
• 21:23
  you're angst and yeah fu the you know, fuck the world and that kind
• 21:26
  of thing. But Welcome to the Jungle is just you can just put it
• 21:29
  on at any party and everyone's like fucking yeah, yeah, it smells like
• 21:34
  teens the World, But Welcome to the Jungle is fun the world. Yeah.
• 21:37
  Yeah, and and particularly because it was their first album as well,
• 21:41
  just announcing yourself with authority as you said, Yeah, it's yeah, smells
• 21:44
  like Teen Spirit is a shrug of fun the world. Man. It's like,
• 21:48
  if you're listening to girls, you're gonna go fuck the world. I'm
• 21:52
  just I'm just gonna make sure that never mind. Actually, I'm pretty sure
• 21:55
  smell with Teen Spirit was track one. If I'm like, I'm gonna look
• 21:56
  like knitted if it wasn't, because for some reason my mind it was one.
• 22:00
  I was looking through here. I Walking to the Jungle definitely was number
• 22:02
  one. I'm scrolling down to tra yes was like Teen Spirits number one.
• 22:04
  Yeah, of course, I'm like, I know I'm right, but I
• 22:07
  just want to make sure. But you're right, though, But I enjoyed,
• 22:11
  so I enjoyed home going to see margin old Man Flanders. I just
• 22:15
  love old Man Old Man whoever like Old Man Davis won't throw the frisbee back.
• 22:22
  But I there's a moment in this episode that I'm not even gonna lie.
• 22:23
  I actually teared up for a second there, right, and they followed
• 22:27
  up with a gag whatever. But when I said. I was like,
• 22:30
  oh, fuck, that's like beautiful. When he says and guy, can
• 22:34
  you please tell on me to come to daddy in his dreams and tell him
• 22:37
  how to cut her sandwiches? I was like, fuck, man, like
• 22:40
  that is so fucking sad. It's just like so nice. At the same
• 22:44
  time, I know, it just makes me if I'm talking about it,
• 22:45
  like tear up. And you imagine, like these kids don't have their mother
• 22:48
  anymore, and you can imagine some kids will just be like like just little
• 22:52
  things like cutting your sandwich is the right way now we love Daddy doesn't quite
• 22:56
  do it the way mummy did it. And I'm like, yeah, that's
• 22:57
  just I thought that was a brilliant line. Yeah, next question you there
• 23:03
  eating the beast. It is trivia time, which means it is also time

• 25:56
  shout out to mister Davis at this time. Now for sum trivia, let's
• 25:59
  get into it. Hit me with your first question. I've had a very
• 26:02
  many, but I'll certainly hit with one. At the animal retirement place,
• 26:07
  where is the bathroom located or by the rhino cage? Indeed, next to
• 26:12
  the rhino cage. It makes me sad that the rhinos are in a cage
• 26:17
  and not an enclosure. That's yeah, that is see are you making me
• 26:23
  so? I know? My first question is what color was Flanders rubber duck?
• 26:29
  No idea, I'm gonna say red. It was purple. Okay,
• 26:33
  Then when's the race at the very end there? Yes, um, where
• 26:37
  did the secular humanist go to college? What? What when they're playing Christian
• 26:45
  clue? Oh shit? Okay, yeah, now I wasn't paying attention.
• 26:48
  What was it? He has the boorish manners of a Yale That's right,
• 26:52
  yes, all right. My next one is what does Rod climb at the
• 26:56
  Fun Center? It's Mount Verty Cools Mount VERTI cool. I thought it was
• 27:03
  a good name. Yeah, I liked that. I thought that was really
• 27:03
  Yeah, that was pretty nice and I like that, you know, subtly
• 27:07
  plays into the ending as well. By the way, we're talking about that
• 27:11
  place. What is the name of the fund Center? It's that's fun Zone.
• 27:18
  No, it's got Fund Zone. At the end it's something rough and
• 27:25
  it's like rough and tumbles or something. It is awesome. For some reason
• 27:30
  in my head, I was like, rumble stillskin, that's that's not right.
• 27:33
  And my final question is what is mister Tenney's real name? It's Lewis's
• 27:38
  Lewis, yeah, yeah, or Louis because I know some people spelled Lewis
• 27:42
  Louis. We had a kid at primary school who's spelled Lewis but was pronounced
• 27:45
  Louis so annoying, so it was his l o U I s yeah,
• 27:51
  but his name was Louis but not pronunciation. Yes, so it's Louis.
• 27:57
  Yeah. Any final, anymore questions for me? Where was Nelson going to
• 28:02
  live? Ah? No, you've got me. What was it? Because
• 28:06
  I know it was someplace like a crusty, made up funny town or something
• 28:11
  like that. He's gonna he was going to live at Cuckoo Corners. Cuckoo

• 28:56
  of Bart Has Two Mummies was March nineteen. It's two thousand and six.
• 29:00
  It was written by Dana Goold and directed by Michael Mark Cantel. Guest start
• 29:04
  Antonio Fargus as Huggy Bear, Susan Surrandon as herself as the male on the
• 29:10
  computer, Randy Johnson as himself, and Dave Thomas as Bob Hope. The
• 29:14
  episode kicks off with the church fundraiser, which does not count as church.
• 29:18
  I've just got to hear a really stupid gag from Carl and Lenny about religion
• 29:22
  being a big scam. It's just, I don't know, it's one of
• 29:26
  a joke, just a statement. You know, it's one of those it's
• 29:27
  one of those moments where you know when you're growing up, and it's that
• 29:30
  one person at a party when you're a teenagers was like, yeah, everything's
• 29:33
  a scam and so everything and they make ship at outlanded statements like this,
• 29:37
  and he's like, you're just you're no fun, Like we also know,
• 29:41
  but we don't fucking care. This person is clearly longing for you know,
• 29:48
  spirited, robust political debate and no, no thanks, and get the mirror
• 29:55
  that shows you what you look like. And how Lisa runs off scare but
• 29:59
  burns as a king. And then Reverend love Joy here says they're raising funds
• 30:03
  to have a bigger steeple than the Episcopal Church, which is a little callback
• 30:06
  to the episode a few episodes ago where it was the Simpsons Christmas Stories.
• 30:11
  Was it not, yeah, we're talking about the Episcopalian Church or something.
• 30:15
  Yes. Yeah, So it's a little bit of a payoff here, and
• 30:17
  they want to he wants a bigger stepel because it's to compensate for his um,
• 30:21
  you know, his own sense of smallness. And then we get the
• 30:23
  rubber duck race and the winner of the robber Duck race will get a home
• 30:26
  computer. I've never done a race like this because to me, this isn't
• 30:29
  a race, this is put your thing in the water and just hope that
• 30:32
  you win. It's yeah, winn't raised by any form of skill. It's
• 30:37
  just you let your thing go on the water and see where the water goes.
• 30:38
  Yeah. It's why I have a problem with some games of chance.
• 30:44
  I mean, I'm not much of a gambler anyway, but if I want
• 30:47
  to gamble, I think i'd want to do something that had some degree of
• 30:49
  skill, like poker or twenty one or you know, even that's still chance.
• 30:53
  You know, that is still chance as well. But I mean you're
• 30:56
  also playing the person against him, but like something like rules, it's like
• 31:00
  that's pure as yeah, yeah, or even dice, you know. But
• 31:04
  we're like, oh, I'm feeling lucky. To know It's like you'd better
• 31:07
  feel lucky because you know, you know, you know who's taken the wheel
• 31:11
  here Physics the first doctor gross the finish line wins this home computer. That's
• 31:18
  the new Phoenick, the computer design just for women. You've got male voice
• 31:23
  is Susan Serandon. You've got mail, unlike the prisoners at Guantanamo Bay get
• 31:30
  informed. Don't worry, March Me and Terrible too here are gonna win that
• 31:37
  computer for you. How can you be sure he wants it? The race
• 31:41
  begins and Homer says he's going to begin operations Slot Edge, So he starts
• 31:45
  shooting some of the ducks out of the water, but unfortunately his duck goes
• 31:48
  into the old mill. Little cheat, he goes into the old mill.
• 31:51
  Let me just get the scene with him going through all the different yeah,
• 31:55
  yeah, with hogs and stuff, and which I'm sure they've alluded to in
• 31:59
  the past. It mean, it's a bit like that Charlie Chaplin Modern Times
• 32:01
  thing where he's sort of going through the gears and that they've done visual sort
• 32:06
  of shoutout to that on The Simpsons before. Well. Something I really did
• 32:08
  like though, was the music that they use. I would say this is
• 32:12
  the music they always used for things, because it's the same music they use
• 32:15
  in the Beer Barren episode when Homer Bowl is the bowling ball down. Yeah,
• 32:19
  I remember it from old Looney Tunes cartoons, and it wasn't necessarily the
• 32:22
  ones with Bugs Bonny or Daffy Duck. It was usually ones where you've got
• 32:28
  a gambling addicted cat or dog goes to a casino that's run by this very
• 32:35
  shady type who if you can't pay your debts, they do all matter not.
• 32:39
  There's nothing, yeah, and but there's always playing that music. I
• 32:44
  don't exact music, that's exactly what it is, okay, I said,
• 32:49
  okay, yeah, because it's perfect for this kind of scene definitely, where
• 32:52
  things are sort of going through like a I don't know, a series of
• 32:55
  events, you know, yeah, but I just know it felt like it
• 32:59
  when a little bit too long, it really did. Yeah, just sell
• 33:01
  a filler. And then Homer is just trying to say the duck from getting
• 33:05
  injured, that's why he's going through all these cog It goes into the old
• 33:07
  mill, ends up falling from Homer, but a real duck catches it just
• 33:09
  before it goes over the finish line. He then tries to steal back from
• 33:13
  the duck. The duck attacks Homer, he steals a back, throws it
• 33:15
  over the finish line, but it turns out to be a real duck because
• 33:20
  he wish too hard and it became real because Flanders then wins, and he
• 33:22
  has his favorite kind of smart surprise Mile mild and then we you know,
• 33:28
  Marge comforts Homer saying, don't worry. The main thing is that you tried.
• 33:30
  And then we get your favorite moment with Bart being sad. Oh no,
• 33:37
  I'm evil. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, but to me,
• 33:38
  I can I can see you know you enjoyed it. But for me,
• 33:42
  though, I was just like, I don't mind moments like this if
• 33:45
  it plays a role, a weight on the episode, but just being cruel
• 33:47
  and mean for the sake of being cruel and me And I'm just like,
• 33:51
  but they've done this so often. Yeah, I don't like it anytime there's
• 33:55
  a great line. I mean, it's a gentleman thief episode, you know.
• 34:02
  And even still my stamp collection, everyone stamp collection. Everyone's pointing at
• 34:06
  him my life, and Les said the Barts paint is Barts paint is funny,
• 34:09
  but mine is actual, genuine I'm like, yeah, I d percent
• 34:15
  agree with you, Lisa. Maybe it's the I think I've obviously I think
• 34:19
  I've changed since becoming a dad, But when you see your kid, you're
• 34:22
  like your your own child actually like genuinely sad. It really like for mean
• 34:30
  mate, boils my blood. It would be heartbreaking and gear grinding. And
• 34:34
  when I see like another kid do something that makes my kid feel this way,
• 34:37
  I just want to punch that kid in the head. This is wholly
• 34:40
  understandable. Even even you know, a blackhearted monster like myself understands that.
• 34:45
  Yeah. Yeah, so I think I think I just sort of whenever I
• 34:47
  see things like this now, I think of like Elliott being sad, and
• 34:51
  I'm like you monster. Flanders gives the Simpsons the computer because he has no
• 34:55
  use for it because you know, there's no female in the house and I
• 34:59
  don't know. So he doesn't like the idea of people googling one another.
• 35:01
  That makes you strangers. Yeah, googling makeing skin crow, as he said.
• 35:05
  And then he asked Marge because he's got to go to the left the
• 35:09
  left the convention. So she says, there is there anything I can do
• 35:12
  for you know, you give me this computer, and he says, can
• 35:14
  you babysit my kids? Why go to the convention? They use their little
• 35:15
  dictionaries to understand one another? Yeah, yeah, this is the thing.
• 35:20
  That computer seems like an elaborate set up to get Marge the babysit the kids.
• 35:23
  When like that computer bears No has no burying on the episode as well,
• 35:28
  another that's always all it Like, you could not just have Flanders knock
• 35:30
  on the front door and say hey, m Joe, I reckon your babysit
• 35:34
  the kids to night. Like there's like five minutes of this fucking, stupid,
• 35:37
  fucking church festival thing with a rubber duck race that made no sense,
• 35:43
  that there's no point, no point. It certainly did not. No,
• 35:46
  I'm all about just like get into the story. You need to have a
• 35:52
  little bit of time at the start to sort of set things up. But
• 35:55
  this went on for so long and that's so point the pointless, that's the
• 36:00
  thing. Yeah, And then Marge arrives to babysit and he says, the
• 36:04
  last time we had a babysitter she let the kids watch Comedy Central. So
• 36:07
  no Ruddner, no Rita Rudder. Is she a bad bad influence? She's
• 36:14
  not at all. In fact, Yeah, I mean I think it's part
• 36:15
  of the jokers that her comedy is actually very vanilla and she's got a very
• 36:20
  sort of unthreatening presence. Um, I don't know if you would have seen
• 36:24
  her on Australian TV at all. Down and she came out to Australia a
• 36:29
  fair bit's a regular on heyyed Saturday. Yeah, just not looking at it,
• 36:35
  Yeah yeah, yeah. And she's got that kind of He's got a
• 36:38
  very sort of sweet voice like this, and you know she'll talk about things
• 36:43
  that happen in relationships, and you know she'll make quite piercing comments, but
• 36:47
  they'll be in this very very sweet voice like this. So um yeah,
• 36:52
  I mean, of course she'd be the kind of person who would threaten the
• 36:55
  Flanders family. Yeah, she's very very vanilla. But then he gives Marge
• 37:01
  or the emergency numbers and the closest people have other kids blood type, and
• 37:06
  Carl being one of them. And then they say, and I feel sorry
• 37:09
  for these kids because like they lives. I mean, they're little, they're
• 37:13
  little nerds, but like this is all they've known. It's like, let's
• 37:15
  have a sitting still contest, hands folded and Marge is sitting there. Even
• 37:22
  Marge gets bored. She's like, no, no, because she's Marge is
• 37:23
  a good mum in the sense that she lets her kids running while but she
• 37:25
  also knows how to rain them in. She's like, no, it's a
• 37:28
  tie, you know, were number two, let's go do something different where
• 37:30
  we cut to the convention and today's seminar is ambidextrous lefties in denial. And
• 37:36
  then he get get Randy Johnson seeing with selling his bears and fans just gets
• 37:40
  like it's almost like the mafia, just like you bar these are rain chairs,
• 37:45
  boxes of a thousand. Also, they're just disturbing with their big hand
• 37:51
  with one big hand. Yeah, what are you going to replace Funko pops?
• 37:53
  Because they're on the they're on the downtrend now, No, they're my
• 37:58
  retirement plan. That ptruds me. If you've got them, sell sal Cell
• 38:01
  because they ain't going up in futting you, my friend. No, their
• 38:06
  most superannuation. Yeah hitting, they are hitting the rock bottom at the moment.
• 38:09
  But um, but Star Wars we get the margin the kids making Star
• 38:14
  Wars mass or just making masks out of paper plates and I'm a Star Wars.
• 38:16
  So there's always a screensh that gets shared around on May fourth of Ralph
• 38:21
  dressed as Princess Leiah where he says I'm a Star Wars. So I guess
• 38:25
  they just copied the same line or that's a fake meme, but it doesn't
• 38:29
  actually say that because Marge says the line here, I think I think it's
• 38:32
  a fake meme. I think they've taken the picture and they've they've crossed the
• 38:36
  line on it. Maybe that's I guess that's what happened, because I can't
• 38:38
  remember the episode in which it happens. But yeah, I'm a Star Wars.
• 38:42
  So they spook each other with their masks, and I like the I'm
• 38:45
  a permission slip so tied. That's permission to have fun. And thank you
• 38:52
  God for letting missus Simpson come over. It was the most fun we've had
• 38:55
  since Marmie was here. And could you ask Mommy to come to Jeddy in
• 39:01
  a dream and tell him and to kind of a sandwiches and please tell Missus
• 39:07
  Simpson it's rude to eavesdrop on our prayers, but we forgive her. And
• 39:14
  then Flanders says, you know, you can babysit the kids anytime, which
• 39:16
  is what about home? I don't want He's watching the kids and they're jousting
• 39:21
  and just being menaces. Basically, you see Lisa be a bit reckless as
• 39:24
  well. That's true. Yeah, I mean it was so seemingly out of
• 39:29
  character. Third, that was awesome, especially when the last episode ended all
• 39:32
  like a couple episodes ago ended where she's like, all right, it's just
• 39:36
  me and you now, Maggie, and I'm like, I'm so, I'm
• 39:38
  sick of seeing Lisa acting like an adult. I want to see sort of
• 39:42
  like Lisa again. Yes, it was nice to get this moment, but
• 39:45
  we come back from commercial in Virodent totter on their seesaw. What do they
• 39:47
  call it in the States. It's not a seesaw, it's a Marge calls
• 39:51
  it something else. Oh yeah, that's right, tittle no tita something tita,
• 39:59
  tito, totta, I think something anyway. But yeah, they got
• 40:00
  the Chuck's underneath and she's like, let's go freestyle and a narstortle moment playing
• 40:06
  but Behoven's Ninth Symphony, I think it was. It wasn't ee yeah music
• 40:12
  that's just symbolic with frolican freedom sess but and it's also what they used in
• 40:19
  the intro to Everybody Loves Raymond for a good while there. Yeah, but
• 40:23
  yeah, I thought it was just a nice moment where you know, they've
• 40:25
  realized, now, this is what life is like, this is what this
• 40:28
  thing is supposed to be, and there now in bed, and Marge is
• 40:31
  watching late night TV the bumblebee Man talk Show, which whatever, and Homer
• 40:36
  arrives in his varsity jacket. I heard him study all you were babysitting tonight,
• 40:45
  Homer, We're not in high school so much. In tomorrow's game,
• 40:51
  I'm going to recover a fumble just for you. Oh well, maybe you'll
• 40:55
  run it in for a touchdown. Don't press your movie good enough with it
• 41:00
  from my good Well, maybe we can take your mind off things by studying
• 41:05
  for the sat Snuggles and tickles O Flanders, Hey, Homer, sneak and
• 41:23
  kisses from the missus Springfield High football rules. These guys have a good sex
• 41:28
  life. I like that margin just sort of you dangerous. Oh yeah,
• 41:31
  no, I'm a bit of role play. That's quite marvelous. And then
• 41:37
  unfortunately old man Flanders arrives, and even when Flanders sees him, he's like,
• 41:40
  uh, sneaking some kisses from the missus. Yeah. I love that
• 41:44
  everyone's kind of sex positive in Springfield. And I love that Homer doesn't break
• 41:50
  character. No, no Springfield new rules or something spring springfel House goal football
• 41:54
  rules. And he jumped the fence aheads himself. Then Barton Lisa asking him
• 41:59
  for a lift somewhere, and Lisa suggests the Why does she suggest this place?
• 42:02
  Can we go to the Showbiz for Retirement home for the animals? I'm
• 42:06
  like why. I'm guessing that she might think that it's, you know,
• 42:10
  a place where you know, the horse that played National Velvet runs free and
• 42:15
  you know you've got various sort of various lassies just you know, enjoying their
• 42:21
  golden news soaking up the sun. I guess because she didn't know it was
• 42:22
  going to be at how Hold, did she? Yeah, she didn't know
• 42:25
  it was going to be like something had a planet of the apes. Also,
• 42:28
  this also nearly made my favorite moments as well. I should have put
• 42:30
  it in there. Yeah, just once I finished watching my show and a
• 42:32
  DVD fucking screen. I used to love it when there was like pong y,
• 42:38
  Yeah, watching it. Oh, there it goes, and you always
• 42:42
  think, is it gonna hit the corner? Just missed the corner? Yeah,
• 42:45
  I'm just about to say, it's like, is it on that trajectory
• 42:49
  just hit right in the corner? No, bugger, Like what what?
• 42:52
  I'm happy to have had it hit just the right in the corner there.
• 42:53
  Yeah. Yeah, it's just where Bart refers to them as nim Rod and
• 42:58
  nim Todd. That was pretty funny. Yeah yeah, and when he walked
• 43:00
  in, Yeah, and then um say his little help he here over hears,
• 43:04
  so he gets a bit panicky. The thing is that joke doesn't work
• 43:06
  though, because he's not a showbiz dog. He's a showbised dog in a
• 43:08
  sense that he's on the Simpsons, but in their universe he's just their pet
• 43:12
  dogs. So why is he doing this? I don't know, but I
• 43:15
  like met a joke on the part of the Simpsons runs like, oh,
• 43:17
  he's a showbiz dog, even though he's not really showed his dog. Homer
• 43:21
  hoping the gremlins are there, I'm going to get them so wet, that's
• 43:25
  okay. They arrive at the at the pet home and there's cemetery full of
• 43:30
  lasses. They see Huggy Bear from a Starsky and Hutch heard I'm not a
• 43:35
  real bear voiced by the actual Antony or Fargus. Yes, yeah, he
• 43:40
  was played by Snoop Dog I believe in the film, wasn't he he was?
• 43:44
  Indeed? Yeah, that was very very good casting. I mean I
• 43:46
  can sort of take a leave Snoop dog in a lot of situations. I
• 43:50
  don't think I've ever heard a Snoop Dogg's song. I've heard him like feature
• 43:52
  in a couple of songs, and I think I've ever listened to any of
• 43:53
  his music. I just know it's purely from from his pop culture appearances.
• 43:58
  But like, and he's men you log ads he has Yeah, yeah,
• 44:00
  true, but he has just lived his best life, hasn't he, Snoop
• 44:04
  dog He really has. I was like pushing it's like pushing sixties. He's
• 44:10
  over sixty hour. I think like he's he's getting there in age and he's
• 44:15
  just kicking on fucking. He was at wrestle Many this year. He's just
• 44:17
  living his best life. Man. Oh okay, speaking of wrestle man,
• 44:22
  Yeah, did you start a podcast without me? Yeah? Well, do
• 44:24
  you want to talk about wrestling? No? I mean I could, but
• 44:30
  it'd be like I would occasionally drop terms like kfabe in a in a vein
• 44:37
  effort to express that I knew what I was talking about when I really don't.
• 44:40
  I bet we'd better leave it to Elliot j O'Neill, Dando's co host
• 44:45
  on, Am I getting this right? Good day? Ew Yeah, so's
• 44:49
  to take off of a w obviously, but when he sent me through the
• 44:51
  name, say when I knew that he sent me through saying you want to
• 44:53
  do an wrestling podcast called good AW, I'm like, well, I can't
• 44:55
  pass that opportunity up. It's just an Australian wrestling Australian wrestling podcasts called good
• 45:00
  Aw. Just it just works. It certainly does. So if you're a
• 45:06
  fan of grappling, give that one to listen. Yeah, it's available on
• 45:10
  all your podcast services now, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and it will be
• 45:14
  coming out every single Thursday. We're reviewing the last episode of AW Dynamite,
• 45:19
  just to start with just the test of waters, and we'll eventually start doing
• 45:21
  some more retro wrestling episodes and pay per views and things like that in modern
• 45:24
  WWE right kind of stuff. But you'll start small and work our way out
• 45:28
  because I've already got plenty of other ship we're gonna be doing here, including
• 45:30
  a new show that we're going to be launching very very soon asterday. It
• 45:34
  may have already launched by the time this episode airs, which is incredibly excited,
• 45:37
  which you can't mention yet, because we don't know when this is going
• 45:38
  out. But big things happening at fourth and Discount Network. That's all we
• 45:42
  have to say. We're so busy, we are so busy, but so
• 45:45
  we arrived there. Huggy bears there and he says, cover the seat with
• 45:49
  tissue, the toilet paper. Do you do that? I do that when
• 45:51
  I go to a public toilet, I cover the seat with toilet paper.
• 45:53
  I do not. I do because I'm just like, I just know people
• 45:58
  pistol over this all the time. It's just how often do they really get
• 46:00
  cleaned? Let's be honest. Yeah, that's true. I'll look at it.
• 46:04
  If it looks especially revolting, of course, I'll give it a quick
• 46:07
  once over. But I figured my ass has got about as many germs as
• 46:10
  the as the sea will have. I think it's it's a fight of equals.
• 46:14
  You know what's more disgusting. I will never forget because you know,
• 46:17
  when you get to a nightclub and the torts just rank right, let's piss
• 46:20
  everywhere, and they're full, and things like I'll never forget when this chick
• 46:23
  walked in to the boys toilets barefoot, holding her heels, walking through the
• 46:28
  mail toilet and went and took a piss in the toilet, and I was
• 46:30
  like, you're a disgusting like not because you're a chick pin in the gust,
• 46:34
  just like bare Foot in these the four must have been just oh,
• 46:40
  I don't want to think about it. I was just like, I'm going
• 46:44
  to marry that gal. I overstand that you're not looking back and going that
• 46:46
  is the grossest thing I've ever seen in my life. But it's probably as
• 46:52
  I'm due with a foot fetish. They're going so hot, so wet,
• 46:57
  that's so grainy. But they see Toot Toot, who's really really sad.
• 47:01
  She used to be Tum Tum in Teen Tarzan's Eco Adventures, which sounds like
• 47:06
  a show. It does, doesn't it. Yeah, Yeah, she's all
• 47:09
  sad and she's crying and she misses her kids because they're also in show business.
• 47:14
  We don't find out that one of them missed a teen until later in
• 47:15
  the episode. But but uh, his ice cream. But she takes him
• 47:21
  instead. But son's been ap napped. No, the prefix applies to the
• 47:23
  victim is still kidnapped, and she starts grooming him and the work of his
• 47:27
  panics and says there's nothing we can do so to distract her, and she
• 47:30
  shows him Flipper, who was also unfortunately passed away. I'm just like,
• 47:32
  though, there's no one else here that can help. Homer manages to get
• 47:38
  there with a tranquilizer in a pipe, like he's worked this shit out.
• 47:42
  What what's going on here? Who? Who was visiting this place? Were
• 47:47
  you? I know? But surely the word would have got out up the
• 47:52
  first person showed up, kid, get on the help and say, do
• 47:55
  not go there. Can we fix this please? Yeah, that's the thing,
• 48:00
  Like for the rest of the episode. Surely Lisa's should have had a
• 48:02
  great with his place, right, I'm just about to say, yeah,
• 48:08
  this sort of runs counter to everything that Lisa stands for. Yeah, I
• 48:12
  don't think girl. I think Danta knows how to write Lisa because he had
• 48:19
  her acting like I mean as I lied to. He had her acting very
• 48:22
  unleasa ish in that in that jazzing scene. And now she goes to this
• 48:24
  place that she suggested. It's terrible. It's the opposite of what she thought
• 48:29
  was going to be. It's against everything she believes in. And she's like,
• 48:30
  yeah, whatever, ye carry on. But then Flanders. He finds
• 48:36
  a band aid rapper on the floor, and he finds out that I believe
• 48:39
  it was Todd cut himself on the knife and Christian clue. So he sends
• 48:43
  him to bed and makes them crawl up the steps. And I was like,
• 48:45
  I'm not sure I like this version of Flanders, but I understand clans
• 48:47
  would be like this because he's just so overprotective. Now, I know you'll
• 48:51
  like to worry, but these boys are never going to get self confidence unless
• 48:53
  you let them try things for themselves. I just can't. They're all I've
• 48:58
  got. It's that same day when Maud found eternal happiness. I thought they
• 49:02
  might enjoy it if I took them here. Everything's covered in fun and it's
• 49:07
  onn by a corporation, so you know it's safe. Well, your mascot
• 49:12
  is a kneepad wearing a helmet. Why not? So we're now having dinner.
• 49:16
  Marge asked where Bart is, and this is where Homes goes into his
• 49:19
  patronizing, sarcastic rant about revealing the whole thing, but doing it in a
• 49:23
  sarcastic way. I don't know. It didn't wait for me. This,
• 49:27
  it's just, yeah, it feels like a drug that's been done before,
• 49:30
  yeah, but this time stretched out to unfeasibly weird dimensions. I mean,
• 49:37
  have him used the sarcastic voways with Marge and then her just sort of brush
• 49:40
  it off and then realize that he can't switch it off, maybe say two
• 49:44
  lines to Lisa, I can't stop talking like that, and then sort of
• 49:49
  cut it off. As far as I'm concerned, I mean, it still
• 49:51
  wouldn't be a quote unquote a comedy classic. I have serious mental problems.
• 49:55
  I was just like I just felt unnecessary to me. But Bart tries to
• 49:59
  leave, like, look, it's been great, but I miss my indoor
• 50:00
  plumbing. But she takes him back, and obviously in Banana, and the
• 50:04
  sad thing is that, like Tutt's not a villain here, she just misses
• 50:07
  the kids. That's what She's trying her best to make Bart feel loved and
• 50:12
  welcome. She's just trying to replace that emptiness that she feels when not having
• 50:15
  a kids around with Bart. And Bart's like like Bart gets it too,
• 50:19
  but it's like no one's helping. This is sad. What's going on here?
• 50:23
  She's a really good mum. Yeah, she's she's cleaning, she's feeding.
• 50:28
  You know, she's big with the cuddling, playing swing all night?
• 50:31
  Yeah, what more do you want from my mother? Exactly? They wake
• 50:35
  up the next morning. I did like the transition of she's been playing swing
• 50:37
  all night, Bart's tied. She's just like, let's just keep going.
• 50:39
  And then he Homer wakes up and eats the peach full of anti freeze that
• 50:44
  he's going to give her. I don't know. We're out at the play
• 50:47
  center, rob Rob Rod, I should say, is climbing Mountain Vertical.
• 50:52
  There's where Flanner sneaks into to oversee and watching spy on Marge and he sees
• 50:57
  Rod, right, you're gonna get hurt. I was like, I know,
• 51:00
  I can totally relate to this like I have when I say Lisa,
• 51:04
  I don't finely say Holy or Elliott climbing things, I instantly panic and I
• 51:07
  need to stop so much. I see a lot of myself in Flanders here.
• 51:12
  Did you when Nicola was pregnant with Elias? And I imagine even before
• 51:17
  then, I imagine you were sort of thinking, this is the kind of
• 51:20
  dad I'm going to be. These are the kind of guidelines and rules,
• 51:22
  and I'm going to set for myself and you know that I want to pass
• 51:25
  on to my kid, and you know this is how I want to do
• 51:29
  it essentially. I mean, did that all that go out the window in
• 51:32
  the minute you're like, oh my god, it's a little guy. It's
• 51:36
  still that all goes out the window. Definitely with the first one, you
• 51:38
  are more protective when they're first born in the sense that like you try and
• 51:43
  tell like, yeah, your mum and dad or people who have had kids
• 51:45
  before, make sure you hold his neck. It's like they fucking know,
• 51:49
  and it's like they're look at your Mum's like, gets me the look is
• 51:52
  it to say, I raised you, I know what to done. I
• 51:54
  didn't forget how to keep a baby alive, like, but like you just
• 51:58
  can't help but be over protective. So I was definitely like that. Nicola
• 52:00
  was the same, but with the second one, I wasn't so much so.
• 52:02
  But I definitely thought I was going to let the kids run more wild.
• 52:07
  But I'm definitely more creative in the sense of trying to stop them from
• 52:09
  injuring themselves more so than I thought I was going to be. But it's
• 52:13
  like sometimes the other day says to Nicola, I'm like, is there fucking
• 52:15
  lot in life just to try and hurt themselves and find new ways to I'm
• 52:19
  like, I told you the story of the podcast a few weeks ago where
• 52:22
  Holly spilt food on herself and jammed a finger in a drawn and fell off
• 52:24
  the back of a chair in a space of like five minutes, and I'm
• 52:28
  like, far out, man, it sound like a Chris Farley guy.
• 52:34
  It's just like, what has happening here? But sometimes sometimes you have those
• 52:38
  moments. But the other times where I'm like, you know, Aliot's climbing
• 52:43
  this ladder and Aliet, let me get behind you. Sometimes I won't realize
• 52:45
  he's climbing ladder. He gets to the top and he's like, look what
• 52:46
  I did, And I'm like, oh, you did that and you didn't
• 52:51
  fall and hurt yourself. Maybe I'll just stand back and what you do you
• 52:52
  think? And then I stand back and let him do his thing and he
• 52:54
  proceeds to forethnote himself. But yeah, it's you. Definitely you have an
• 53:00
  idea of what you're going to be and you do keep that to an extent,
• 53:05
  but things do go out the window, like you said, because whom
• 53:09
  it's all you're just learning on the fly. That's all parenthood is. No
• 53:12
  one really knows how to be apparent. You just wing it as you go,
• 53:15
  making shit up as you go. But this is where Rod he panics
• 53:19
  because he was fired until Flanders made him feeling secure, and he falls and
• 53:22
  he chips his tooth on the on the wall. He chipped that tooth?
• 53:27
  How will he bite wheat thens? How? I'm sorry, man, I
• 53:31
  never thought this would happen. I don't want you watching my boys ever again.
• 53:38
  She must be an unfit mother. I don't know. If I saw
• 53:40
  a guy say this in a play center, I would be siding with her.
• 53:45
  I think just I wouldn't go, oh, she must be an unfit
• 53:47
  mother. I think I've got moving my response. If they're watching everything that's
• 53:52
  led up to that particular moment, or which maybe they haven't, but I
• 53:54
  mean, then's being loud enough that you think people would start paying attention.
• 53:59
  Yeah, yeah, I'm with you. I'd be definitely starting on chapter two
• 54:02
  that was probably gonna come out anyway. It's fine, it's fine, baby
• 54:06
  teeth, that's fine. Yes, But then we at the news report.
• 54:07
  She says, I am not an unfit mother. Cut to the TV news
• 54:10
  report and but as being had he's being kidnapped by a monkey, which has
• 54:15
  improved his high gena and posture, and his realm mother couldn't be found for
• 54:19
  comment. And then we get Homer eating the trunkildes a dart and he had
• 54:22
  to be revived by a police done gun. We come a from commotional planners
• 54:24
  and now setting up a safe play area to the tune of Welcome to the
• 54:28
  Jungle. I thought it was a good song. I liked it. It's
• 54:30
  not too bad, Welcome to the Jungle Gym. He he's got a bit
• 54:32
  of a future as a Wiggles esque entertainment, which is where the real money
• 54:37
  is. Welcome to the Jungle Gym. I'll make it safe again and playtime.
• 54:43
  He's a safe time. Everybody wins now laid down some after teris sold
• 54:47
  day. Don't scrape there, no, no, no, no, no,
• 54:49
  no in the knees. But then he says to the kids, you
• 54:52
  know we're gonna do. They say, what are you gonna do? Today?
• 54:54
  What all boys your age to look at bread? And I'm like,
• 54:58
  that might be the most fucking boring things Flanders has ever suggested. Look at
• 55:01
  bread, eat bread, just look at it, and they say the N
• 55:06
  word. No, they want Marge back because she makes him feel happy,
• 55:08
  not church happy, for real happy, and is where Flanders starts to go.
• 55:12
  Well, maybe she should be part of their wife again. Lisa then
• 55:15
  says Bart, you know, he's helping to cope because her and Homer are
• 55:19
  out the cage. Still no one around to help. It's just them there
• 55:22
  by themselves. I'm like, are there any other Are there any other visitors
• 55:24
  to this place? Are there any other workers or is it just that one
• 55:28
  worker there was? Clearly there was a news report there because there was a
• 55:30
  cameraman filming it. Why didn't know one happ the cops, the cops,
• 55:35
  the cops of them, but no one's out, like it's just it's a
• 55:37
  it's stupid really when you think about it, it's a really silly story.
• 55:39
  But you know, Homer says, no, monkeys don't have feelings. No,
• 55:44
  that would make my all my experiments cruel. Then Marge arrives out of
• 55:46
  the blue and she sees two kiss Bart's boo boo, as you said,
• 55:52
  good mother. She's looking after Bart, making him feel safe and helping him
• 55:57
  when he hurts his unt, hurts his knee, I think it was,
• 55:59
  or it hurts his hand. And Marge shows to talk to her mother,
• 56:00
  to mother, but when she does this, to simply escapes and takes but
• 56:05
  with her. Then we get another news report and it starts off with them
• 56:07
  mentioning that the hamburger was survived by his long time companion maybe cheese. We
• 56:12
  actually took the kids to McDonald's right on the weekend. It's for breakfast,
• 56:16
  right. It is such a sterile doctor's clinic vibe in that place. Now,
• 56:22
  I hate it it is, we said the other day it has gone,
• 56:25
  my friend, it's all computer screens and Ikea furnishings. Literally. And
• 56:31
  when Nicola wanted a piece of banana bread from the McCafe right, there's two
• 56:36
  people standing in McCafe doing nothing. I said, can I get a piece
• 56:38
  of banna bread please? And she goes, I go to order on the
• 56:40
  screen. I went, no, no, that's just there. I say,
• 56:44
  kind of give you some catch. She goes, no, we don't
• 56:45
  take cash in here, SHOs you neither? Go order over at the canter
• 56:47
  over there and I'll bring me the slip and I'll bring it to your table.
• 56:50
  Or order on the screen. Fuck it's there. She's like, I
• 56:54
  was gonna go to the system and I'm like, why do I have to
• 56:57
  walk over there to the computer screen when the bread right there? I hate
• 57:00
  this place. I hate those pos. Oh no, just making me so,
• 57:07
  I said Nicole Evan degree. She gets when I come back to McDonald's
• 57:08
  anymore, like it's done. It's just not fun. It sounds like I'm
• 57:13
  not missing anything. It's as I approach six months. Yeah, well schedulations.
• 57:16
  Yeah, do you feel like do you want it anymore? Or you
• 57:19
  just passed that point where you're like, nah, I don't want it as
• 57:23
  much as I used to. Let's say, yeah, I'm I imagine if
• 57:29
  I had someone I would just like, I would absolutely scarf it. I've
• 57:35
  never been I used to be likings a lot when I was younger, But
• 57:37
  I feel like you just once you out of your twenties, Like, what
• 57:39
  are you doing eating McDonald's. No, that just might feel like McDonald's fee
• 57:43
  when you're drunken, when a cheeseburger after a night out, But grow up.
• 57:50
  Thanks Dannard, that's good advice. I'm like, what's like, I
• 57:53
  always find the best chips because you think you love fries, don't you?
• 57:58
  So you love me Donald's chips. If you don't eat that shit straight away,
• 58:00
  it tastes like fucking cardboard. Oh it absolutely does. It's yeah horrible.
• 58:06
  Ye but but but you get him hot and oh yeah, you can't
• 58:12
  even tast any potato with him though. Man, it's just like eating batter.
• 58:15
  Yeah, that's exactly right. You get the tallow on the salt.
• 58:19
  Yeah, the actual physical chip is a delivery system for the fat and the
• 58:23
  salt. But where are we up to? Yea, so Marge, she's
• 58:28
  a long time companion cheese that. Yeah. So basically this is where Brockman
• 58:34
  says that Twotot has taken Bart to the top of the steeple, and it's
• 58:36
  like, oh, okay, so I see you going for a King Kong
• 58:37
  reference here. Yeah, it's because in the commentary at the start day and
• 58:40
  the day is like, I really want to get a King Kong story into
• 58:44
  this, and I'm like, we went through all that just to have a
• 58:45
  climbing a fucking steeple, Like one shot Cheese is christ but love Joy says
• 58:51
  before the pipe prepared and says, yeah, Bart sims a memorial steeple or
• 58:55
  whatever. Marge is really sad and upset. Lisa then randomly arrived miss A
• 59:00
  Tenny in the bag. How she got him in a bag? I don't
• 59:01
  know that is true, that's miss don't ask questions. Miss Tenny is like
• 59:07
  pretty big, right for a monkey, Like he's not like a baby monkey.
• 59:10
  Lisa just has him readily in the bag. Todd just straps into his
• 59:14
  back and climbs up a fucking steeple with him on his back, and let's
• 59:17
  get to the end quick, quickly. What is happening anyway? So I
• 59:22
  think I miss A Tenny in the Bag says that this is one of her
• 59:23
  kids, and I know the whole point that was meant to go, oh
• 59:27
  that's who. That's like his revelation, but I was just like, that
• 59:30
  doesn't make that's stupid to me. Anyway, she says we'll trade trade Teeny
• 59:34
  for Bart but it says I'll do it, and he's already climbing up planned
• 59:36
  his panic straight away you're gonna fall, and you know he gets I like
• 59:39
  the animation of the Vertigo. I thought it was really cool. Yeah that
• 59:43
  is good. Yeah, and yeah, look I like the tie in about
• 59:46
  you know mound vertical and and Rod climbing this. I mean, it's it's
• 59:51
  cheap, but it works. Definitely. Concern Marge says, you know,
• 59:54
  you need to they need to believe that they're gonna be okay on their own
• 59:58
  if you keep sort of scaring them like this, and they're never going to
• 1:00:00
  believe in themselves. And then he says, I've got on your side.
• 1:00:02
  You can't fail. And I was like, oh, is it fail or
• 1:00:05
  fall? Fall can't fail either way. I don't think that theory either.
• 1:00:09
  No, that's sort of taking agency out of Rod's hands and putting it into
• 1:00:14
  God's hand. Yeah. Yeah, And or that could be seen as flanned
• 1:00:17
  as then handborn in the blame to God and said of himself, well he
• 1:00:21
  falls, it's not my fault, God, God let him do it anyway.
• 1:00:23
  It's all it's all a big scam anyway, isn't it, Mister Davis?
• 1:00:25
  That that's a topic for another time, another past and Tiny have a
• 1:00:32
  big hug. They embraced me. Find out his real name is Lewis and
• 1:00:36
  Christ. He says he now needs a new side cook, side kick.
• 1:00:38
  And if all the time to not have such a mouse say anything this is
• 1:00:42
  what he appears and random scenes. It has all these elaborate fucking bits of
• 1:00:46
  dialogue here nothing nothing. I think Dana Good was trolling us. Yeah,
• 1:00:54
  but then climbs down and he says, don't touch me because it's gay,
• 1:00:58
  and he explains that gay me is that you were scarednere not. And it
• 1:01:00
  ends with Todd Rod saying, hey Dad, I'm gay. Missus Simpson made
• 1:01:05
  me gay and he looks at Marge annoyed. Okay, may as a test
• 1:01:10
  a little bit of a ship. This could be a shout out, or
• 1:01:13
  it could be a tie in. I don't know. But the title of
• 1:01:15
  this episode is but has Two Mummies, which is a reference to a book
• 1:01:20
  that came out in nineteen eighty nine I believe called Hither has Two Mummies,
• 1:01:23
  which is one of the first lgbt qia plus is it, oh okay okay
• 1:01:29
  children's book to sort of explain to kids, like, you know, not
• 1:01:31
  not every family as a mom and a dad. Some families have too.
• 1:01:35
  I just assumed it meant I've never read the story. I just read that
• 1:01:37
  and thought, well, it's from back then. It would not be referencing
• 1:01:40
  that. It would be referencing someone being divorced and having a stepmom in a
• 1:01:43
  real month. That's what I thought it was going to be. Okay,
• 1:01:45
  No, No, it's a book about sometimes families have two moms and this
• 1:01:51
  is that that that case, whether or not. But it's making time of
• 1:01:53
  that though. Yeah, it's painting homosexuality in a negative light through which achieved
• 1:02:00
  Flander's eyes is understandable. But then they have more looking down from heaven saying
• 1:02:05
  Oh, I'm so proud of my son. You could have totally ended this
• 1:02:07
  episode with such a fucking sweet moment and you had to throw in the Bob
• 1:02:10
  Hope and God again given God makes a gay because he says, oh,
• 1:02:15
  her son's more footy than this, And I'm like, and God laughs at
• 1:02:17
  that, and I was like, this is not a loving God. No,
• 1:02:22
  Like to me, I feel like if this was like Classics him it
• 1:02:24
  sounds a hate saying this, he feels like classic Simpsons. But if I'm
• 1:02:28
  writing this right, this is a big development in the relationship between Flander's kids
• 1:02:32
  and Flanner's Right. Yes, I wanted to end on an emotional beat because
• 1:02:36
  you know, it's got a really good, really good story in the sense
• 1:02:38
  that you're trying to tell here, have them embracing Right at the end,
• 1:02:43
  he says, thanks Dad for believing me, and more looks down from heaveness
• 1:02:45
  or something like you know, I'm so proud of my son or whatever,
• 1:02:47
  and just cut back to them just like hugging and Flanders like looking up into
• 1:02:51
  the sky with a big smile as if they say like he knows that Maud's
• 1:02:53
  looking down on them and with something sweet like that. I don't know that
• 1:02:57
  that's how I would have done it, That's how I would have done it.
• 1:03:00
  No, no, no, no, I think I think you're probably
• 1:03:02
  correct in that way, because, yeah, having God and Bob Hope timely
• 1:03:08
  reference for two thousand and six, by the way, having them as sort
• 1:03:15
  of douchebags, yeah, it feels very and I know I say this,
• 1:03:20
  it feels very response to family guy in South Parker being a bit edgy.
• 1:03:24
  Maybe we should try and have a bit of edges. So I was like,
• 1:03:28
  family guys, they've been a fly six to eight years by this point.
• 1:03:30
  It's like, I don't know. It annoyed me the ending. I
• 1:03:34
  was like, ah, yeah, when he saw the water, I was
• 1:03:35
  like, oh, oh okay. It was not a good ending. It
• 1:03:39
  looked as we often do on the on four Fingered discount. I found a
• 1:03:44
  bit more to enjoy in this episode than I did when I was actually watching
• 1:03:46
  it. But this was not that great an episode. As far as I
• 1:03:51
  clearly ld the Flanders story more than the Bee plot. I just thought the
• 1:03:54
  Bee plot was just Dana wanted to write a King Kong reference and crowned it
• 1:03:59
  in somewhere just I don't know. I didn't really enjoy that, But I
• 1:04:01
  liked the Flanders story. It felt more grounded and more real, more like,
• 1:04:05
  yeah, like a classic again, I said, classic seems, but
• 1:04:09
  more of an episode that felt like it was in the realm of the Springfield
• 1:04:12
  universe where monkey shit was just way too wacky for me. It's a silliness.
• 1:04:16
  Yeah, I agree with you. One from day forward. Your name
• 1:04:20
  droll me. It is the guy Davis. New name. Leaderboard Championship for
• 1:04:26
  BART has two mummies. The current leaderboard mister Davis stands at this still in
• 1:04:29
  first position, of course, is Luke McKay on twelve points. In second
• 1:04:31
  position we have Kyle muldoon on nine points, and in third position we have
• 1:04:36
  Heath Appleby and David Mott both on seven points. So who got the one
• 1:04:41
  two three? This week? The first point? The one point. Now,
• 1:04:45
  I don't know if this is quite right in terms of the story,
• 1:04:50
  but it's such a neat play on words that I just had to give it
• 1:04:54
  up. This is don't tell Mom the babysitters need I like that a lot.
• 1:04:58
  Yeah, that's one of those movies where I used to always see them
• 1:05:00
  at the video shop and they always had really cool covers. They had one
• 1:05:02
  of those covers that was like popped out, what's the world, but they
• 1:05:06
  saw bubble bubble covers. Yeah, I forgot like three D kind of where
• 1:05:11
  they saw. They weren't flat, they were they popped out. The horror
• 1:05:14
  movies were awesome back in the day, in the in the later nineties,
• 1:05:16
  they were the best. But that one point goes to oh again, there's
• 1:05:19
  last week Mark Boston Burchess with the one point again this week slowly time and
• 1:05:24
  that leaderboard coming on strong Boston. Yeah, that's why. Now on the
• 1:05:27
  four points, what's number two? Two points for chimpin pain't easy? That's
• 1:05:33
  that's like a wrestling term because there was a wrestler called the Godfather and used
• 1:05:38
  to say pippin ain't easy. You know who also said that? Who also
• 1:05:42
  said that? Pimps where there's a famous pin that said it though. But
• 1:05:48
  yeah, so chipping ain't easy by our man. Adam Woolhouse will done.
• 1:05:51
  Adam who's now on eight points wild one? Adam all right? Three points
• 1:05:57
  Woolhouse, Woolhouse in the house and three points four Smother's day, Smother's day.
• 1:06:03
  Very good indeed, or it's from our man, I reckon this one
• 1:06:05
  would have got sent in from the factory. It's Steve Roberts operating a heavy
• 1:06:11
  machinery. He's hidden sending in heavy wordplay. Nice work, Stevie. Yeah,
• 1:06:15
  so three points there goes to Steve Roberts. Okay, So the current
• 1:06:18
  leaderboard still at first position. We have Luke McKay on twelve Clever Kyle still
• 1:06:23
  in second position on nine points, but Adam Woolhouse is now climb to the
• 1:06:26
  third position outright on the eight points. It is tight up the top of
• 1:06:30
  that leaderboard. Twelve, nine and eight's getting very very tight the way you're
• 1:06:32
  like it, isn't it, mister Davis, I like a tight What can
• 1:06:35
  I tell you? Like a t Indeed, we got ourselves a horse race.
• 1:06:39
  It's fantastic. All right, It's now time for some mail back questions.
• 1:06:43
  Mail bad de Debail is here. Okay. First question comes from our
• 1:06:49
  dear friend a long time listen to, Dave Abbott Smith. I hope you're
• 1:06:53
  doing well, buddy, Dave says, those of you who got kidnapped and
• 1:06:56
  raised by gorillas, what's your relationship? What hang on you who got kidnapped
• 1:07:01
  and raised by gorillas? What's your relationship now? Bobo and I meet up
• 1:07:04
  on our birthdays and exchange Christmas cards. I think he's being silly. I
• 1:07:09
  think our friend Dave is being a bit silly with that one. I think
• 1:07:13
  I think he might be taking the piss so slightly. Andrew J. P
• 1:07:16
  Says what's your favorite zoo animal? Either the cutest or most entertaining. I've
• 1:07:19
  always been drawn to the meacats. I've always loved the meacats. I was
• 1:07:23
  about to say meacats as well, they're so cute. Yeah, I don't
• 1:07:27
  know. Obviously, I love the lion king when I was a kid.
• 1:07:29
  But the meat cats. You're looking and you're like, let's want to squeeze
• 1:07:31
  you. I want to picky. I'm going to take one of you home,
• 1:07:34
  and I love the gorillas and the chimps as well. But I always
• 1:07:39
  get sad by the end because I'm like, these guys are as smart as
• 1:07:41
  meg. Yeah, and they're in and you can see he can see that
• 1:07:45
  they know that they are just locked in the cage. You know. It's
• 1:07:48
  just it's cool at first, and then you just get sad then realize,
• 1:07:53
  oh my god, these guys are in jail. Yeah, and they and
• 1:07:58
  they know it too. Yeah. Yeah, I mean it's great seeing big
• 1:08:02
  animals, yeah, primates, big cats, rhinos and other such if you're
• 1:08:10
  if you're out on an open range. Yeah, but the bigger, the
• 1:08:14
  bigger they are, I think, the more sorry you feel for them.
• 1:08:16
  It's like, shouldn't be an enclosed spaces. Should be out there were running
• 1:08:20
  free, whereas little guys like say you're littler monkeys, Um, maybe you're
• 1:08:26
  smaller big cats and certainly are mere cats. Yeah. Yeah, it's like,
• 1:08:30
  well it's a jungle land there for you guys. Literally, Um,
• 1:08:34
  you might be safer in here. Yeahs did a real boost der ego with
• 1:08:40
  everyone just coming out and look how cute. This is the thing. I
• 1:08:44
  was talking to a friend recently who. You know, he's just got a
• 1:08:45
  new house and you know, looking good and loves his new place, got
• 1:08:48
  all this stuff they set up that he wants. And we're talking about taking
• 1:08:50
  the kids at the zoo and I said, oh, sometimes get sad going
• 1:08:53
  to the zoo because no, it's good to get over in there, needing
• 1:08:55
  there. And I said, yeah, but you know, just imagine we
• 1:08:58
  had COVID again next week and you got locked in this house for the next
• 1:09:00
  two years. Would you like that? No, you'd fucking complain. No.
• 1:09:03
  I know you're everything you want in this house, but you don't want
• 1:09:05
  to be stuck in the same house with the rest of your life, do
• 1:09:08
  you? Ye? Can't about side anyway? Enough about You might have asked
• 1:09:11
  him aout the wrong time because he's you know, he's still got still the
• 1:09:13
  honeymoon phase of the house, like mate, everything, he's got everything.
• 1:09:15
  An Yeah, Andrew Kelly, what great ape would you fight in a hand
• 1:09:20
  to hand combat if you had to, as in, if aliens were putting
• 1:09:24
  you into a battlesphere for their enjoyment and they gave you a choice, Well,
• 1:09:30
  we first got My first choice will be can we please have the music
• 1:09:33
  I've got to have my entry music. Yes, um, I small.
• 1:09:39
  He's talking about like fictional apes or like a particular type of pride. Let's
• 1:09:43
  go with fictional apes. That makes it, That makes it better somehow funnier.
• 1:09:49
  Not King Kong obviously, because we wouldn't survive that. But are there
• 1:09:51
  any apes? Was some what are some fictional apes? Great pape? You
• 1:09:58
  have ever heard thee? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, there the American one.
• 1:10:00
  What about apes are popping? I'm not what's what's apes are popping?
• 1:10:04
  That's in the Simpsons actually goes I've got some of the movies that you're like
• 1:10:10
  And at the end, at the end, he goes away in the cage
• 1:10:13
  just because he's different. Awesome. Sorry I forgot that. Um there's a
• 1:10:18
  gorilla in the movie. Have you seen a Baby's Day Out with your man
• 1:10:23
  Joe Montaignan, I have indeed seen Baby Day Days Out with Baby Bink,
• 1:10:28
  Yes, yes, which is clearly just a guy in a in a suit.
• 1:10:30
  Thank you. I like to fight that one because I like to think
• 1:10:32
  that I've got a chance because essentially it's just another human in a suit.
• 1:10:35
  True. Um, I would probably like to fight Dunston from the motion picture
• 1:10:41
  Dunston checks in. Yeah, even though Dunston seems real cool. But we
• 1:10:45
  would fight for you know, the other room in the hotel. Yes,
• 1:10:50
  and then and then we bond, you know. Then after it would be
• 1:10:54
  bros. And we get in some rooms. Yeah where yeah? Yeah.
• 1:10:57
  What's the chicken? The backwards cap on it on the cover of that is
• 1:11:00
  that doesn't checks in? Thinking or I thinking of Andre, thinking of Andre,
• 1:11:05
  and I thinking of yes, yes, yes, now I know it
• 1:11:09
  doesn't checks him. But I thought there was a chick in that movie as
• 1:11:11
  well, like a young girl. Maybe I'm wrong, you're talking about like
• 1:11:14
  a chick, like a chicken. I thought, like, I've never seen
• 1:11:17
  Dunes and checks in, But I just thought it was like somebody's pet or
• 1:11:20
  something. I don't know. I think I think I saw it maybe just
• 1:11:23
  once. I just remember that it's a I think it's an a ranger.
• 1:11:26
  Chang checks h okay. Then Mark Boston Burgess, were you guys weener kids?
• 1:11:32
  Or did you take risks? I was the one who dared people to
• 1:11:35
  take the risk, and then when ship went down, I ran away and
• 1:11:39
  hid. I'd be like, hey, get that rock and throw it on
• 1:11:42
  that person's roof. That'd be funny. Go knock on that person's door and
• 1:11:44
  run away, that'd be funny. Meanwhile, I'm just hiding in the bush
• 1:11:46
  she's got and they're getting into you're the corruptor. Yeah. Yeah, I
• 1:11:51
  was a straight up ween a kid. Yeah, yeah, I was.
• 1:11:55
  I was a goody two shoes. There was a point in high school,
• 1:11:58
  seeing about this recently, actually the threat primary school, I was, you
• 1:12:00
  know, goody two shoes. I mean, I still have plenty of friends,
• 1:12:02
  still popular school captain, blah blah blah. But I was definitely like
• 1:12:05
  a bookworm, Like I was nerdy, right, and it got to high
• 1:12:09
  school. In the first year of high school, I won like the year
• 1:12:12
  seven award for my best student, like the Lisa Simpson Award. And then
• 1:12:15
  I think it was somebody between a year at and year nine where I sort
• 1:12:16
  of went this shit matters, and then I just sort of realized, yeah,
• 1:12:21
  I want to get a media degree. I need to focus on all
• 1:12:24
  this accounting. You know. I kind of ship and I just sort of
• 1:12:26
  I could have done better at school, but I didn't because I just went,
• 1:12:30
  why don't I don't care. I knew what you're wanting. I knew
• 1:12:32
  what I wanted to do, and yeah, look at me now I knew
• 1:12:34
  and iye podcasting for a different who won? And final question here will choose
• 1:12:42
  one more Kirsty Hodgkinson. Have you guys watched the latest episodes on Disney If
• 1:12:45
  yes, what do you think? We've answered this one recently as well.
• 1:12:48
  I have definitely watched all of the episodes that have been on Disney Plus in
• 1:12:51
  season thirty four. I've thought this season. I was actually discussing this with
• 1:12:56
  their man, Timothy Belson twenty dollars patient of the show last night at Facebook,
• 1:13:00
  talking about how there seems to be a lot more Metish episodes in this
• 1:13:04
  season, and I'm not sure whether that's just Matt Salmon sort of just fucking
• 1:13:09
  with the audience or I just think he just likes matter episodes, where then
• 1:13:12
  non Cannon he's a fan of that, which was fine, But when you
• 1:13:15
  have like six or seven in the one twenty two episode season, it feels
• 1:13:19
  like a lot. I don't know, but you know, thirty four seasons,
• 1:13:23
  you know, because it's hard to come up with fresh ideas that people
• 1:13:25
  aren't going to shitt all over. I did see a lot of people shitting
• 1:13:28
  all over the latest episode with Lizzo, they were actually just there. Just
• 1:13:32
  the mere idea of her being in the show just seemed to piss a lot
• 1:13:34
  of people off. And I don't understand why, like she's done something wrong,
• 1:13:38
  Like what do people have against her? I don't think they enjoy the
• 1:13:43
  fact that she is out and proud about being a big gal. Wait,
• 1:13:48
  so because she's okay with being fat than it? Like that's what the issue
• 1:13:55
  is? Why? Because some people are dicads, Okay, then as long
• 1:13:59
  as we're both clear on that, okay, then sure fine, everyone's like,
• 1:14:04
  oh, it's gonna be like when Lady Gaga was on. I still
• 1:14:06
  have not seen that episode, so I think I think you and I need
• 1:14:10
  to watch it as a Patreon exclusive because it's like a defining moment in the
• 1:14:13
  stue that's instant the episode apparently one already goes by the way, Harrison mcclauda
• 1:14:20
  says, can an oreo ever be ranked? I mean, I've never been
• 1:14:27
  huge on oreos. Call me crazy. I'm just not a but I'm not
• 1:14:29
  a desserts man. Though I'm not a biscuits and a chocolate kind of guy.
• 1:14:32
  I will I will eat it and enjoy it, but I don't crave
• 1:14:35
  it much. Like I know you're a b apple pie man, that's true.
• 1:14:39
  I'm also a cookie dude, and I do like an Oreo. They're
• 1:14:42
  an inexpensive cookie. Um. You know, sometimes they'll be marked down.
• 1:14:46
  It's like, oh, that's that's a pretty good price for that to you
• 1:14:48
  by orios. I think I might go get something, particularly cinnamon button flavor,
• 1:14:51
  which is basically just a sugar rush. I mean that's they're really nice,
• 1:14:56
  but oh just feeling your teeth rotting head as you eat it? Um,
• 1:15:00
  can they ever be ranked? Yes? They can? I mean one
• 1:15:02
  thing about him? So you have to see them right up once you've opened
• 1:15:05
  the open the tube because the air hits him and they start to turn into
• 1:15:09
  like it's like McDonald's fries's fry. For just a little while, I was
• 1:15:14
  like, oh, you've turned into the codeboard that you that contained you.
• 1:15:18
  It's like one machine makes cardboard boxes, the other machine makes the chips.
• 1:15:24
  But the Yeah. The campaign though, like the ad for Oreos, was
• 1:15:28
  fantastic that you can have the rest in my milk. It taught so many
• 1:15:31
  people that chocolate isn't good for dogs and the whole twist and yeah, twist
• 1:15:38
  and something. It reminds me of m making the smalls and sound like kids,
• 1:15:42
  you know, the process of making a dessert even more delicious. I
• 1:15:45
  always love that. Lu and I are watching some TV the other night and
• 1:15:49
  um, someone had made like a little small's kit. But yeah, Lu
• 1:15:55
  didn't really know about smalls and she was looking at that's pretty sort of piss
• 1:15:58
  poor a little you know buffet they put together. It's like, no,
• 1:16:00
  I think they're actually going to make like, um, it's like a sweet
• 1:16:03
  jaffle. That's how I explain yet to look like. Sound's not bad.
• 1:16:08
  That's pretty good. Alright, Well that is the mail bag for but has
• 1:16:15
  two mummies. The next season seventeen episode is going to be which one mister
• 1:16:18
  Davis is the mom of Ricky Gervais? Is it Ricky Gervais? Ricky Gervais?
• 1:16:21
  I think it's Ricky Gervaise. Yeah, Homer Simpson, this is your
• 1:16:27
  wife. An episode that really confused me as a kid, and I don't
• 1:16:30
  think i've ever watched it since. I remember with him on his first AD
• 1:16:32
  and I was like, who is this guy? Why is he speaking weird?
• 1:16:35
  What is happening? Right now, So I'm actually looking forward to going
• 1:16:39
  back and revisiting it seeing him. It's just as confusing as it isn't as
• 1:16:42
  it was then as it is now. Boy, do I have news for
• 1:16:45
  you? Have you've watched it already? Oh no, But that's a story
• 1:16:50
  for another time. It is indeed all right, guys, don't forget the
• 1:16:54
  folds on social media supporters on Patreon if you can, for the exclusive staff
• 1:16:57
  and Facebook groups and all the other stuff. Mister Davison find the words for
• 1:17:00
  those incredible listeners out there. Well, listeners, I hope this episode gave
• 1:17:03
  you your favorite kind of enjoyment. Mild
