- 2:47Speaker 1: Do they know? I don't don't you don't know? I mean,
- 2:52Speaker 1: Walter Cronkite was the anchor of all anchors in the fifties, sixties,
- 2:59Speaker 1: and I think maybe part of the seventies. Here's two
- 3:04Speaker 1: YouTube videos you need to look at and you will
- 3:06Speaker 1: understand who Walter cronk had is one you're gonna have
- 3:09Speaker 1: to google when JFK was assassinated and watch Walter corn
- 3:15Speaker 1: And then I need you to also google the moon
- 3:18Speaker 1: landing and watch. Do you agree, Walter? Yes, Walter Cronkite
- 3:24Speaker 1: was the most trusted man in America for decades because
- 3:30Speaker 1: of the quality of his delivery and his his journalism.
- 3:34Speaker 1: He never gave his opinion. It was a different era
- 3:37Speaker 1: back then. He just reported the news. When I was
- 3:40Speaker 1: growing up, nobody, no news organizations did not give their
- 3:44Speaker 1: opinions when I was growing up. All you need to
- 3:46Speaker 1: see him take those glasses and you're right, and you're like, right,
- 3:54Speaker 1: it's amazing that I think that was the moonland No,
- 3:57Speaker 1: that was the Kennedy was assassinated when he took the
- 4:00Speaker 1: glasses off because he looked up at the clock to
- 4:02Speaker 1: see what the time was. It was devast It was
- 4:07Speaker 1: a devastating piece of historical footage. Better than cs I
- 4:13Speaker 1: Classes taking off was that SI Miami, David Caruso. The
- 4:22Speaker 1: sunglasses were a character of their own. Uh you know what,
- 4:27Speaker 1: David Caruso's as legendary. I actually did an episode of
- 4:31Speaker 1: c s I Miami with him. He's a he's a
- 4:33Speaker 1: terrific guy. Yeah, he's a terrific guy. It's called killer Regrets.
- 4:37Speaker 1: I still get residuals from it. I mean, so many
- 4:39Speaker 1: years later that show paid so well. It's amazing. And no,
- 4:46Speaker 1: and you know, David Caruso and I here's another story.
- 4:50Speaker 1: We're up four NYPD Blue at the same time, and
- 4:53Speaker 1: it came down to the top five and he was
- 4:55Speaker 1: going to get it because he was did Jimmy Smith's part. Yeah,
- 4:59Speaker 1: it was the day Vin Caruso. It was originally David Caruso.
- 5:02Speaker 1: And David Caruso did a year or two and then
- 5:05Speaker 1: he became kind of a movie star and he left
- 5:07Speaker 1: to do movies. Yeah, because remember he's famous for quitting
- 5:10Speaker 1: that show and then having sort of a failed movie career.
- 5:13Speaker 1: He should have stuck around on NYPD Blue. I don't
- 5:16Speaker 1: know if he had a failed movie career. I think,
- 5:19Speaker 1: you know, he did what, you know, he made his
- 5:20Speaker 1: choices and then he came but a terrific actor. I mean,
- 5:25Speaker 1: he's just such a remarkably talented guy. Um Miami Viginia.
- 5:31Speaker 1: So yeah, I would put Caruso in the category of
- 5:34Speaker 1: a cron kite. Uh. He took his glasses off. He
- 5:37Speaker 1: didn't flip his sunglasses off, but I get you know,
- 5:39Speaker 1: the gesture. I get it. So experience. Yeah, oh god,
- 5:50Speaker 1: we're off to a quite a start. You want to
- 5:53Speaker 1: take a break and towel off, We'll come back. No, no,
- 5:56Speaker 1: go ahead, now let's do it. Let's rock this. Speaking
- 6:00Speaker 1: of toweling off, okay, so for this off this one,
- 6:03Speaker 1: you let us know if this is a pop culture reference.
- 6:05Speaker 1: Not really sure. So first up, we have the Moonies.
- 6:08Speaker 1: So Emily said, grabs cucumber water from the spot and
- 6:10Speaker 1: she said, Lord, LIS's careful, mom. That's how they got
- 6:12Speaker 1: you in the Moonies. So the Moonies was found in
- 6:15Speaker 1: nineteen fifty four. It's called the Unification Church and is
- 6:18Speaker 1: classified as a new religious movement and labeled as a cult.
- 6:21Speaker 1: So they have an emphasis on marriage and the reason
- 6:24Speaker 1: for Moon's infamous mass weddings. A blessing ceremony in two
- 6:27Speaker 1: thousand nine included twenty thousand couples from around the world
- 6:31Speaker 1: getting married at the same time. Neil Bush is a
- 6:34Speaker 1: famous for promoting Moon in Asia and around the United
- 6:36Speaker 1: States too out nine and it currently has one to
- 6:38Speaker 1: two million members. Who's Who's Neil Bush Part of the
- 6:43Speaker 1: Bush family. Oh, he's part of the one of the Bushes,
- 6:46Speaker 1: you know, the Moonies, which is Reverend Sun Young Moon
- 6:52Speaker 1: by the way, the doctors. I think he called himself
- 6:54Speaker 1: a doctor. That was my generations kids growing up, introduction
- 6:59Speaker 1: into cults. That's the first cult we ever heard about.
- 7:02Speaker 1: I've ever really heard of them until this, and I
- 7:05Speaker 1: kind of looked culticionato. I enjoyed those documentaries, but this one,
- 7:09Speaker 1: I was not aware. They were very much part of
- 7:12Speaker 1: the news cycle for a long time. When I was
- 7:14Speaker 1: growing up, all you heard about was the Mooneys, this
- 7:16Speaker 1: Mooney's that I know, mooning as something else. So we'll
- 7:22Speaker 1: give you that as pop culture. It's borders on history,
- 7:25Speaker 1: but we'll give it to you. It's definitely part of
- 7:27Speaker 1: pop culture. It was, it was ingrained into the fabric
- 7:30Speaker 1: of America. What's next? So next, next up, we have
- 7:34Speaker 1: Emily and Laura Lai check in once they're having at
- 7:37Speaker 1: the spa, and Bobby at the front desk says, ah, yes,
- 7:39Speaker 1: welcome to Birch Grove. My name is Bobby. I have
- 7:41Speaker 1: everything all set for you. Do you have luggage? Lorelie
- 7:44Speaker 1: says yes, it's in Luca Brazzie's mobile out front. Um,
- 7:48Speaker 1: So Laura Lai is referring to Luca Brazzie over my head. Sorry,
- 7:53Speaker 1: it was totally over my head guy film Godfather, god
- 7:56Speaker 1: got it. So lou Go Brazzi was portrayed by Lenny
- 8:01Speaker 1: Montana and was Don Corleone's quote unquote personal enforcer. We
- 8:06Speaker 1: know what that means. Um. The Godfather filming face pushed
- 8:09Speaker 1: back from the Italian American Civil Rights League, which was
- 8:12Speaker 1: run by Joe Colombo and Frank not Frank Sinatra, but
- 8:16Speaker 1: they agreed to back the film if they took the
- 8:19Speaker 1: word mafia out, so that meant some members were on
- 8:22Speaker 1: set while filming. This is why Lenny Montana was on
- 8:25Speaker 1: set and cast as Luca Brazzi. So he was just cast.
- 8:29Speaker 1: He had like a real dude. Oh yeah. And and
- 8:32Speaker 1: do you know why do you know why Frank Sinatra
- 8:34Speaker 1: was so opposed to using the word mafia. Um? Because
- 8:39Speaker 1: in the Godfather they do tell the story of how
- 8:43Speaker 1: Frank Sinatra got out of his original band contract because
- 8:47Speaker 1: I think Tommy Dorsey wanted to sign him and make
- 8:49Speaker 1: him hugely famous. And that was that was mom. And
- 8:53Speaker 1: the scene is with the studio head out here and
- 8:55Speaker 1: Robert Duvals comes out to say, give Frank's Johnny Fontaine
- 8:59Speaker 1: the part, which really Frank Sinatra the part, and the
- 9:02Speaker 1: studio head is like, Johnny Fontaine never gets that picture,
- 9:06Speaker 1: and I'm gonna tell you what you know, and he
- 9:08Speaker 1: goes into that big speech and then he says, no,
- 9:11Speaker 1: get the hell out of here. You know, I don't
- 9:13Speaker 1: care if it's Don Corleone. You can't muscle me. You know,
- 9:16Speaker 1: this kind of thing. And then Robert Duval has his
- 9:18Speaker 1: spoons cut his prize horse's head off and put it
- 9:21Speaker 1: in his bed. So the guy wakes up. The studio
- 9:24Speaker 1: head wakes up covered in horse blood, and then then
- 9:26Speaker 1: he sees the horse's head and then all of a sudden,
- 9:28Speaker 1: Frank Sinatra, I mean, Johnny Fontaine has the picture. So
- 9:31Speaker 1: I think, uh, Frank Sinatra was justifiably a little perturbed
- 9:36Speaker 1: that this story was being told um life. Yeah that's
- 9:43Speaker 1: that's in The Godfather, but it's a story that came
- 9:45Speaker 1: out of real life. Yeah. Yeah, I'm going to have
- 9:50Speaker 1: to watch this Godfather in one of these I mean,
- 9:51Speaker 1: I don't know if the details are exact. Maybe you know,
- 9:54Speaker 1: somebody can email and who knows more about it than I.
- 9:57Speaker 1: But that's that's the rumor that Frank Sinatra that that
- 10:01Speaker 1: the some muscles never put a gun to the head
- 10:05Speaker 1: of the band leader and said, either your brains are
- 10:07Speaker 1: going to be on that contract or that release or
- 10:10Speaker 1: your signature. Make your choice. How many of us have
- 10:14Speaker 1: seen The Godfather? Just one? Oh, you've seen it? To
- 10:17Speaker 1: Riley seen it, I've seen I've seen it hundreds of times.
- 10:23Speaker 1: Gives a whole new meaning to getting a Charlie horse
- 10:25Speaker 1: in bed. You don't know that iconic scene where the
- 10:32Speaker 1: studio head wakes up and he's like like in his
- 10:35Speaker 1: satin sheets and they're kind of wet, and he like
- 10:38Speaker 1: peels them back and there's like blood and he's like, what,
- 10:41Speaker 1: what the heck is this? And then he peels it
- 10:42Speaker 1: covers back and he sees the horse's head and he
- 10:45Speaker 1: goes and he screams, and they cut to a wide
- 10:47Speaker 1: shot of his mansion and you just hear these screams.
- 10:50Speaker 1: Nothing next thing, you know, there was sort of a
- 10:52Speaker 1: horse and animal house. That's the only there's a horse
- 10:59Speaker 1: that kind of a different situation. But yeah, there was
- 11:03Speaker 1: a horse and a different films, different types, different type
- 11:06Speaker 1: of film. Yeah, super secret compression, but that's an interest.
- 11:12Speaker 1: I mean, if you could do the remake of The
- 11:15Speaker 1: Godfather in the spirit of the Animal House, that would
- 11:17Speaker 1: be interesting, would be interesting. Yeah. Continuing with the front desk,
- 11:27Speaker 1: Emily says, well, we intend to leave your completely different people.
- 11:30Speaker 1: Lord Lie says, yes, I'm going to be Ted Nugent.
- 11:33Speaker 1: Ted Nugent is a rock musician and guitar showmen, responsible
- 11:36Speaker 1: for a few memorable tunes such as cat Scrush Fever
- 11:38Speaker 1: and Stranglehold. His early band, The Lords, were given the
- 11:42Speaker 1: chance to open for The Supremes with Diana Ross in
- 11:44Speaker 1: nineteen sixty two after they won a local Battle of
- 11:47Speaker 1: the Band's contest. Ted was only thirteen years old. I
- 11:50Speaker 1: was just laughing because Scott, when Riley and I were
- 11:52Speaker 1: like reviewing this last night, I'm like, can you name
- 11:56Speaker 1: some Ted Nugent hits? And She's like I just did,
- 11:59Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, I literally don't think I've
- 12:01Speaker 1: ever heard of Ted. You you know you've heard these songs,
- 12:03Speaker 1: you just don't know they're his. That's how big. These
- 12:06Speaker 1: like Stranglehold and cat Scratch Fever, You've heard them many times.
- 12:11Speaker 1: There's my soundtracks of Super Bad, Entourage, and Friday Night Okay,
- 12:19Speaker 1: they have some jam and songs. I just remember in
- 12:22Speaker 1: Ocean's eleven Brad Pitt and George Clooney saying something like
- 12:27Speaker 1: Ted Nugent wants his shirt back or something like that.
- 12:29Speaker 1: There was a Ted Nugent joke that was solid well,
- 12:33Speaker 1: and he never wore a shirt when he performed. He
- 12:36Speaker 1: wore a loincloth. Yes, a joke wrong them because he
- 12:41Speaker 1: was always you know, you know, he was a ripped
- 12:44Speaker 1: rock star and a great guitar player. Great, forgive me
- 12:49Speaker 1: that if I got the joke wrong, but I feel
- 12:51Speaker 1: like I got it anyway, Continue right. By two thousand
- 12:55Speaker 1: nine he had played over six thousand concerts, and like
- 12:59Speaker 1: you said, spending a deal time and winecloth on stage,
- 13:02Speaker 1: you don't want to be in the front row for
- 13:03Speaker 1: that one. Ry is talking about having a Friday night
- 13:07Speaker 1: alone with her mom was at the SPA. Roy says, actually,
- 13:10Speaker 1: I was thinking of pulling a kind of Hermit thing tonight.
- 13:12Speaker 1: Dan says why. Roy says, I don't know. JD. Salinger
- 13:15Speaker 1: seems to dig it. JD. Salinger is the writer of
- 13:19Speaker 1: The Catcher and the Rye. Roy's referring to the author's reclusive,
- 13:21Speaker 1: light rife style after he published Catcher in the rye Um.
- 13:25Speaker 1: There's a whole mystery behind Salinger that he was a hermit,
- 13:28Speaker 1: but he was seen out in different places with Vogue models,
- 13:33Speaker 1: partying with Vivian Lee and more so, it's not really reclusive.
- 13:37Speaker 1: I definitely read it, but I have no memory of
- 13:39Speaker 1: Catcher in the rye I definitely read it. I know
- 13:42Speaker 1: I read it in school, and that nothing. I couldn't
- 13:45Speaker 1: even tell you the plot, nothing, no, no retention of
- 13:51Speaker 1: it whatsoever. I know I read it. Nothing there, it's
- 13:54Speaker 1: a blank space in there. I think they're starting to
- 13:58Speaker 1: ban it now in lot of schools, and that's so
- 14:01Speaker 1: sad to hear they're banning that. Soulder once dated the
- 14:08Speaker 1: daughter of play right Eugene O'Neill, but she left him
- 14:10Speaker 1: for Charlie chap lanaging getting dumped for Charlie Chaplin. It's
- 14:14Speaker 1: like I fatally did a deep dive on Charlie Chaplin
- 14:17Speaker 1: the other day for some reason, Like I just went
- 14:19Speaker 1: to town on Wikipedia because I wanted to know, like
- 14:22Speaker 1: are any of his heir still alive? Like how old
- 14:26Speaker 1: was he? I don't know what inspired this may I
- 14:28Speaker 1: don't know why I did that. Is Geraldine Chaplin still alive. Yeah,
- 14:32Speaker 1: there's a ton of children and grandchildren, and the Chaplain
- 14:35Speaker 1: name continued. I think I wanted to know what Charlie
- 14:38Speaker 1: Chaplin looks like like when he wasn't with that, you know,
- 14:42Speaker 1: Charlie Chaplin look and did you find out normal average dude,
- 14:48Speaker 1: your regular old chail, old black and white dude, because
- 14:52Speaker 1: there's only black and white photo, ordinary black and white dude,
- 15:00Speaker 1: no color, the most gifted physical comedian and the history
- 15:03Speaker 1: of the world, but just their normal dude. That's why
- 15:07Speaker 1: he was then assuming. So Jess runs into Dean as
- 15:10Speaker 1: he's leaving. Jesse's oops, you're doing that towering over thing. Huh.
- 15:14Speaker 1: I tell you you really got that down. It helps
- 15:17Speaker 1: that you're twelve feet tall. But this Frankenstein scale really
- 15:20Speaker 1: adds to the whole where he says Jess, Jes says, Okay,
- 15:23Speaker 1: I'm going look, man, I really just droppings off some food.
- 15:26Speaker 1: So don't get all west Side story on me. Okay, Frankenstein.
- 15:31Speaker 1: First of all, the fact that we discovered something about
- 15:33Speaker 1: Frankenstein has blown my mind. Reveal reveal it It It blew
- 15:38Speaker 1: our mind. Okay, so this is crazy. Frankenstein isn't the creature.
- 15:44Speaker 1: It's the doctor. It's like Dr Victor Frankenstein, isn't it Frankenstein? Probably?
- 15:53Speaker 1: But the fact that, like any time I've ever seen
- 15:55Speaker 1: a picture of the monster, I was like, oh, there's Frankenstein.
- 15:59Speaker 1: But no, that's not correct. That is correct. It's called
- 16:03Speaker 1: the Frankenstein monster. That is correct. That's Frankenstein is associated with.
- 16:11Speaker 1: That's the monster's name. It's Frankenstein. I don't know you're saying, well, then,
- 16:16Speaker 1: what is the monster's name? How creature didn't receive a name?
- 16:21Speaker 1: No name. The creature didn't receive a name because after
- 16:23Speaker 1: sparking it into life, Frankenstein realized that creating it was
- 16:27Speaker 1: a mistake. So it's just referred to as creature. No names,
- 16:31Speaker 1: just John Frankenstein. We've all been blowing it for like
- 16:36Speaker 1: John Doe. Yeah, we've been blowing it for a really
- 16:38Speaker 1: long time. Fact, you had no name. His name is
- 16:41Speaker 1: not Frankenstein from what we researched and learned last night.
- 16:44Speaker 1: That is fascinating. So finds tell somebody Frankenstein. I have
- 16:49Speaker 1: to correct them now. It's not the monster. Correct. If
- 16:52Speaker 1: you google Frankenstein, you get a photo of Dr Frankenstein
- 16:57Speaker 1: from like the original movie or whatever. Can you give me, uh,
- 17:01Speaker 1: it's alive? Can you give me one of those it's alive?

- 18:05Speaker 1: think I had to watch that movie time and I
- 18:11Speaker 1: didn't like it any of the time. Just also hard
- 18:16Speaker 1: to keep my eyes open. It was kind of boring. Yeah,
- 18:18Speaker 1: it's not the kind of thing you invite the girls over.
- 18:20Speaker 1: And you know, I have John food and so that's
- 18:22Speaker 1: watching it was no Poulter Guy, there was no Nightmare. So.

- 20:26Speaker 1: She saw all the songs, even the Chris Rock. I
- 20:30Speaker 1: thought that, how was that? How was that? Yeah? You
- 20:34Speaker 1: know I heard it was not that he tried because
- 20:39Speaker 1: he was such a fan of the movies. But no,
- 20:41Speaker 1: and the producers are milking that thing for all they can.
- 20:45Speaker 1: Sorry back on something important West Side Story. What is
- 20:49Speaker 1: her name? And my favorite person in the whole wide world?
- 20:55Speaker 1: Audrey Hepburn, the star of Funny Phase and Breakfast at Tiffany's,
- 20:59Speaker 1: was originally asked to play the lead character of Maria,
- 21:02Speaker 1: but Natalie Wood ended up starring as Maria. What really
- 21:07Speaker 1: Natalie Wood was so great in that I can't imagine
- 21:10Speaker 1: anyone else playing that role, even Audrey Hepburn. I think
- 21:13Speaker 1: Audrey Hepburn was just too I don't know, just she
- 21:16Speaker 1: just seemed too sophisticated and almost royal for that role.
- 21:20Speaker 1: Natalie Wood was perfect for that role because she seemed
- 21:25Speaker 1: like she was of the people. She had that kind
- 21:27Speaker 1: of beauty, but she wasn't you know, there was no
- 21:30Speaker 1: air of well, I'm sorry, what what's what's the word
- 21:37Speaker 1: I'm looking for? She just seemed more more accessible than
- 21:40Speaker 1: Audrey Hepburn, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, like the
- 21:44Speaker 1: opposite of hippo lutant standard earth. I don't know what
- 21:51Speaker 1: is the woman's name that was nominated for the Oscar
- 21:53Speaker 1: for West Side Story. I've got a listen, oh, Arianna.
- 22:00Speaker 1: That's right, ye, Arianna Depose has landed an Academy Award nomination. Man,
- 22:08Speaker 1: she must be over the moon. Good for her, Good
- 22:12Speaker 1: for I love these stories where people just you know,
- 22:15Speaker 1: they they get in these great films and get nominated.
- 22:18Speaker 1: Wonderful Dune, Dune did Big, Big two, Power of the Dog. Anyway,
- 22:23Speaker 1: go ahead, We're going to the Academy Awards. You'll probably
- 22:26Speaker 1: take a limo, which takes us to our next pop
- 22:29Speaker 1: culture fence. Let's go, and we should get on the
- 22:33Speaker 1: red carpet. I can't get no, you know, we gotta
- 22:38Speaker 1: take a limo, but we should go to the front.
- 22:42Speaker 1: And then does Seacrest? Does Seacrest do the red carpet
- 22:45Speaker 1: anymore on at the Oscar? Nope? But Sam Rubin does
- 22:52Speaker 1: from KTL a channel. That's our connection, that's my guy.
- 22:56Speaker 1: He's not going to say who the hell are you
- 22:57Speaker 1: and what are you doing here and call security out.
- 23:00Speaker 1: He's gonna interview us happy, let's go. Let's go, only
- 23:05Speaker 1: if Scott Silly walks in. I'd literally rather watched ten
- 23:09Speaker 1: episodes of Gilmore Girls than watch the Oscar. No, no,
- 23:13Speaker 1: not watch go to the Oscars. I'd rather watch ten
- 23:16Speaker 1: episodes of Gilmore Girls in my bed than I know.
- 23:18Speaker 1: The way you do it as you go to the
- 23:20Speaker 1: you go and then you stay for a couple of minutes,
- 23:22Speaker 1: and then you leave, and then you just go to
- 23:25Speaker 1: the parties. Afterwards, you hit the Vanity Fair party. I
- 23:27Speaker 1: gotta get myself an invite to that. There you go,
- 23:30Speaker 1: let's go, let's all go. Were the I heart you
- 23:33Speaker 1: know where the the I am all in team, and
- 23:37Speaker 1: I think we're gonna look fabulous. We're gonna look good
- 23:40Speaker 1: in a movie theater again, Riley, have you gone in
- 23:43Speaker 1: a movie theater in the last two years? I did
- 23:46Speaker 1: actually go into a movie theater. What did you see? Um?
- 23:50Speaker 1: It was like the Wife of the Bodyguard or the
- 23:52Speaker 1: Bodyguards Ryan Reynolds thing. Yeah. I have not been in
- 23:57Speaker 1: a movie in two years, almost to the day. The
- 24:00Speaker 1: last movie I saw was and I love Ben Affleck,
- 24:04Speaker 1: but this is a bad Ben Affleck movie. It's like
- 24:07Speaker 1: a basketball coach. Oh god, yep, that was my last movie.
- 24:11Speaker 1: I can't wait to go back to the movie theater.
- 24:13Speaker 1: I love the movie theater. Yeah, that was That was
- 24:17Speaker 1: not a good film. It's not a good movie. The
- 24:19Speaker 1: way way back or just something back? What were just
- 24:22Speaker 1: talking about? What we're just talking about? Who? Who are
- 24:27Speaker 1: you mentioning? Before we got on this? Ben Affleck, Ryan Reynolds,
- 24:30Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds, you know that guy? You just never see him.
- 24:34Speaker 1: You never see him around. He's just the radar. He
- 24:41Speaker 1: should come out, he should come out more, and he
- 24:43Speaker 1: should do more things, you know, because you never see
- 24:45Speaker 1: the guy did where it was like a computer game
- 24:48Speaker 1: was actually totally entertaining. Every time I turn around, you know,
- 24:53Speaker 1: I see Ryan Reynolds on a commercial for like I mean,
- 24:57Speaker 1: it's just it's endless. It's like him. It's okay, it's him,
- 25:01Speaker 1: the Rock. The Rock is always taking people into his gym,
- 25:05Speaker 1: and this is how I pumped my arms. When is
- 25:07Speaker 1: Anthony Hopkins going to take us around his gym and
- 25:10Speaker 1: show us how he pumps? When is this going to happen?
- 25:15Speaker 1: I also have some bad news. I've never seen driving
- 25:18Speaker 1: this Daisy. Oh, really excellent film, excellent, It was it
- 25:22Speaker 1: Morgan Freeman and Jessica Tandy that Jessica Tandy and weirdly
- 25:26Speaker 1: Dan Akrod's in there. Dan Echward was an excellent thespian.
- 25:30Speaker 1: He's excellent everything he does, He's the whole thing. Really
- 25:34Speaker 1: great actor, that guy, very versa. What do you what
- 25:36Speaker 1: do you got about it? Riley? What do you what
- 25:38Speaker 1: you got? What do you got for us? Well? You
- 25:42Speaker 1: got over there with the driving miss Davises? Are you
- 25:44Speaker 1: talking about it? Let's go so convinced that she would
- 25:49Speaker 1: lose out we were talking about Jessica Tandy. Um she
- 25:51Speaker 1: made a hundred dollar bet with her manager that she
- 25:54Speaker 1: would not win the Oscar that night, and she did
- 25:56Speaker 1: in fact win the Oscar that night. Morgan Freeman sadly
- 25:59Speaker 1: did not win, but he did win a Golden Globe
- 26:01Speaker 1: for his his performance, and it's said to kind of
- 26:04Speaker 1: like skyrocket his career after that. I love Morgan Freeman
- 26:09Speaker 1: mm hmm. I love when he played the president in
- 26:12Speaker 1: Deep Impact. That's how I love my Morgan Freeman. He's
- 26:16Speaker 1: so and he sacrifices himself in that movie. I think,
- 26:19Speaker 1: very commanding present presence, very commanding presence and an easy presence.
- 26:25Speaker 1: You know it's not He's not like forcing himself on people,
- 26:28Speaker 1: isn't it right? He's yeah, that's right. So understated. He
- 26:32Speaker 1: just opens his mouth and outcomes that voice and there
- 26:35Speaker 1: you go. So a little quote from Driving. Miss Daisy
- 26:41Speaker 1: thought this was funny. Uh ms. Daisy says, did you
- 26:44Speaker 1: have air conditioning checked? I told you to have your
- 26:46Speaker 1: conditioning checked? And Hook says I had the air conditioning checked.
- 26:49Speaker 1: I don't know what for. You never allowed me to
- 26:51Speaker 1: turn it on. Next up, we have Loura explains to
- 27:01Speaker 1: her plans for the Spall weekend. Rory louras Rory, you
- 27:05Speaker 1: have to do something bad when Mommy's out of town.
- 27:08Speaker 1: You've seen Risky Business right now. I'm not asking for
- 27:11Speaker 1: prostitution ring, but somehow floating crafts game or something so.
- 27:15Speaker 1: Risky Business is film starring Tom Cruise f. Tom plays Joel,
- 27:20Speaker 1: who's at home alone and gets into trouble when a
- 27:22Speaker 1: lady of the night Rebecca day Mornay, Rebecca Morner, good morning,
- 27:30Speaker 1: good morning. You said day morning, yes, day morning. You're
- 27:35Speaker 1: fine with how you said it, good morning, day morning,
- 27:41Speaker 1: good morning, day morning morning. He was amazing in hand
- 27:49Speaker 1: the Rocks the Cradle, but I've also seen he does.
- 27:52Speaker 1: I saw her at a restaurant once, sitting with a
- 27:55Speaker 1: bunch of people and everybody was wearing black turtlenecks. They
- 27:58Speaker 1: looked so cool. Really, I love the black turtle next wetter.
- 28:03Speaker 1: I don't love a black turtle. That it was wintertime
- 28:06Speaker 1: and they were so sleek and so cool that it
- 28:09Speaker 1: was just like I think everybody in the restaurant was
- 28:12Speaker 1: just staring at them the entire time, and they didn't
- 28:14Speaker 1: notice anybody. They were too cool. Notice, Risky Business was
- 28:20Speaker 1: a good movie. That it was a great movie. It's
- 28:24Speaker 1: a good movie. But I love pop gunop Gun. I
- 28:31Speaker 1: will definitely be in a movie theater to watch Top Gun,
- 28:35Speaker 1: Maverick and the New Jurassic Park. I gotta do it.
- 28:39Speaker 1: Wait wait, wait minute. So Risky Business was such a
- 28:41Speaker 1: beautifully cast film. Every role was perfectly cast and what
- 28:48Speaker 1: a script. Oh my goodness. And then the iconic scene
- 28:52Speaker 1: where he slides in with his underwear and his shirt
- 28:55Speaker 1: and his ray bands. Um, that's been like, you know,
- 28:58Speaker 1: the inspiration for so many for Halloween costumes over the years,
- 29:01Speaker 1: like David Arquette dressed as Jewel and never been kissed.
- 29:04Speaker 1: And actually the sunglasses jewel wears are ray Ban wayfarers.
- 29:08Speaker 1: Those are the model. The annual sales for them skyrocket
- 29:11Speaker 1: two thousand percent after the movie release. And I think
- 29:14Speaker 1: the same thing when they did Top Gun the ray
- 29:16Speaker 1: band aviator right right, Yeah, I remember when those wayfairs
- 29:22Speaker 1: are the hottest things ever. You remember when Joe Pantalon
- 29:25Speaker 1: Joe panto Leone is the pimp in this film, Guido
- 29:28Speaker 1: the Killer Pimp. Oh my god, just fantastic performance. Kind
- 29:37Speaker 1: of cool. If you zoom in childhood, photographs of Tom
- 29:39Speaker 1: Cruise can be seen in the living room. I like,
- 29:43Speaker 1: I enjoy that touch. Yeah. So next up we have
- 29:47Speaker 1: Laura Line Emily go out to dinner outside of the spa.
- 29:49Speaker 1: Loorla says, I just love the idea of shrimp cocktail
- 29:52Speaker 1: with a steak dinner. You know, it's so casino, Big Joe,
- 29:55Speaker 1: steak and shrimp. Hey save some for the winner. There.
- 29:58Speaker 1: Casino is a film from five directed by Martin Sorcese
- 30:02Speaker 1: about monsters who moved to Las Vegas to make their mark. Um,
- 30:06Speaker 1: it's very much about the casinos and mobs in nineteen
- 30:10Speaker 1: seventies and eighties, starring Robert de Niro, Joe Pesci, and
- 30:14Speaker 1: Sharon Stone. Jaron Stone's fashion in that movie is so epic.
- 30:19Speaker 1: So the costume budget for the film was a million dollars.
- 30:23Speaker 1: Robert de Niro had seventy different costumes throughout the film
- 30:27Speaker 1: and Sharon Stone had forty, and both were able to
- 30:30Speaker 1: keep the costumes afterwards. Her clothes worth so cool. Were
- 30:35Speaker 1: you were you? Were you? Screw? Did you see the film?
- 30:37Speaker 1: Did anybody see the film? Were you you? Didn't? Okay,
- 30:41Speaker 1: because I was screaming. I was screaming at the screen.
- 30:45Speaker 1: Do not marry that woman, Bobby, don't do it, and
- 30:53Speaker 1: he did it. Didn't take my advice. I apologize for
- 30:58Speaker 1: my lack of seeing film. You said, you're not a
- 31:01Speaker 1: film person or TV spending my life watching television. Then
- 31:06Speaker 1: nineteen seventy four. That's nobody's holding that against you. Yeah,
- 31:10Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of TV though. It's okay, all right,
- 31:14Speaker 1: we're going to get into that. Yeah, we'll get there.
- 31:16Speaker 1: Keep going, ready, So the last little fact. In Casino,
- 31:20Speaker 1: the F word is said four hundred and thirty five times,
- 31:23Speaker 1: including in the narration, two point four times per minute
- 31:26Speaker 1: on average. The record was later broken by The Wolf
- 31:30Speaker 1: of Wall Street in two thousands, their team, which had
- 31:32Speaker 1: close to six hundred years of the word. I just
- 31:36Speaker 1: saw that again the other night. Really six hundred six said,
- 31:42Speaker 1: I believe zero times on the show. We don't we
- 31:45Speaker 1: don't know, We're not over here. I think I said that.
- 31:48Speaker 1: I think maybe said the B word, and I've said
- 31:50Speaker 1: the say word. Maybe you've you you know what I say.
- 31:53Speaker 1: You need a little mouth. Watched that a little bit.
- 31:59Speaker 1: You're the one moms still do that is that's the
- 32:03Speaker 1: little thing. Oh my gosh, my mom did that. She
- 32:06Speaker 1: would do that and she'd be like, ready, you're washed
- 32:08Speaker 1: her mouth that was up and I was so rude.
- 32:10Speaker 1: I would just go do it? Do it anyways? Fun time? Um,
- 32:18Speaker 1: so that's it for your pop culture. Wonderful but obvious.

- 32:29Speaker 1: what do you think You're happy? Yeah? I give it,
- 32:34Speaker 1: but I mean, I mean, does the fan base seem

- 32:44Speaker 1: on too long. It's easier to yeah. Yeah. You know
- 32:50Speaker 1: when they forced when they forced John Rockefeller to break
- 32:54Speaker 1: up Standard Oil, he broke it up into twenty four
- 32:56Speaker 1: different pieces and it was the best thing I ever did.
