  Speaker 1: say that she was just happy just to see me,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: except I didn't see her. And here's why. Really, I

• 2:02
  Speaker 1: So we had a very nice brunch. She found a Snoopy,

• 2:10
  Speaker 1: gave my mom a call beforehand about eleven o'clock and
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: say happy Mother's Day, Mum, and I love you, and
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: all this kind of stuff all true, and I said,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I gotta do this thing, but I will see you afterwards.

  Speaker 1: Don't bother. No, no, no, you're singing. You'll sing another mother,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: aren't you? Aren't you galivanting? You gallop? I was gallivanting around,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: But then I was getting ready to go see Mom.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: In the afternoon, I get a call from one of
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: my sisters saying Mom has put her back out.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, she's had a rough year so far. As wow, yeah,
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: I mean she did that thing. You'll be aware of this,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: as am I.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: You turn up and you turn ever so slightly and
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden, ah, I'm paralyzed. You're vented for
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the dishwasher, or you open the fridge, or your sneeze.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: You turn your neck ever so slightly, and almost this
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: happened to my nephew Rory the other day, who's not
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: even forty yet. At my age, Yeah yeah, he turned
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: his heads like I've thrown something. I feel it. Go. Yeah,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: I need to take time off work early because I'm
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: just stuff.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: When you're sort of like playing sports and stuff, you
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: do your hammy. But when you get like my age,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: you know, you know, you just do everything.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: And this was the case with the beloved Margaret Mary,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: who came oh yeah she's fine. Yeah, she just had
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: to take to a bed for the rest of the day,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: and my sister said, don't come over. She's gonna be
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: grumpy and no mood to see anybody. I'm like, okay,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: that's fine. I've spoken to her since, of course. Yeah.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: I saw her the following day. She went to the
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: chiropractor and got adjusted.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: I'm funny with chiropractice because I went twice and I
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: feel like my back was never the same. Okay, I
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: never had lower back issues to the extent I have now.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: I never had neck issues period, And I remember to
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: the chiropractor and he readjusted things, and now it's a
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: case of once they've been readjusted, they've got to constantly
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: re adjusted. Yes, And I regret every second and shouted
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: out all the chiropractice out. You know, I'm not putting
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: this down, but me personally, I wish I never went.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Well Margaret Mary's Land that you went, because I saw
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: on Monday night. Yeah, she was up and a mount
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: and feeling relatively cheerful. So but Mother's Day, unfortunately, was
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: a bit of a bust in that regard. All my
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: sisters went over and saw her beforehand, and they all
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: had a very nice time and everything like that. But Unfortunately,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: what did Margaret Mary get for Mother's Day? A bad back?
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: That's no good son, though I like to think so. Yeah.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: So the good thing about having kids is you can
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: sort of go all right, kids, paint grammar picture, low expectation, No,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: this is the thing, and once you've had kids, you
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: sort of realize you'd love that shit more. You know.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: I've had bought my mom in a nice necklace, but
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: she would prefer to have a picture that the kids
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: painted for her that she could get to her house
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: last night. She's already put it on the fridge, you know.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: And so they made cards for her.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: They paint.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: They've got a bluey color and bought the color in
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: a picture. I've got mom this book, and it's almost
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: like it's a job for her, but it's not.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: So it's a mom I want to.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: Know your recipes book, and you're right there all the
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: recipes you watch. But it's not just giving me your recipes,
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: it's what are your memories of making this for when
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: I was a kid.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: You was spoken about this a few times. I think
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: I think it's a very good idea.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I was gonna just make one like a
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: family recipe book. But this one is you can buy
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: it from the shop. I was like, oh, this just
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: that's the job for me. So you're right in there,
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: which recipes you want mom to write in there? And
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: it's the recipes, but it's also just the memories of
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: I remember making I remember what you were doing when
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: I was making this, and you would always be really
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: excited when I made spaghetti, and you know, memories of
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: you I throw a spaghetti around the kitchen table, and just
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: it's more about memories. Yeah, just the recipes. What the rest?
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: What memories of recipes bring out him?
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: So I got it that we did get a just
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: the classic old gold class gift boucher. I'm funny with
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: gift cards now. I look at gift cards and I go,
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: you may as just give them money. Sure, what's the
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: Nicholas like? No, but the thought of you thought they
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: would let to go the movies. I was like, I
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: could also say, here's a hundred dollars, treat yourself to
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: the movies.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no different, transfer some money over via yeah, yeah, whatever.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know why I won't be gift cards
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: any more. Well, at least from the supermarket. That's where
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: I got it from Guess what happens now?
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Each card six dollar fee transaction excuse me, transaction fee
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: should say a fee transaction? Yeh six dollars they charge
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: you per card to process a card at the checkouts. Now,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: so I bought one hundred oar gift card, they charged
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: me one hundred and five ninety five. Isn't that fucking outrageous?
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: That sucks?
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: That's madness, right, that's wild. Yeah, six dollars per card.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Brought one for my grandma too. It was six dollars
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: per CARDIP five dollars ninety five transaction fee.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: But don't stand for it. Don't stand for it, madness.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: What are we doing?
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Make a stand people, stop doing it, Stop buying gift
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: off allowing them to do this side gifts not gift cards.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well just give them money. Nixon. Next one is
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: put one hundred dollars in the card. She's like, yeah, sure,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: I bought one hundred.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: And twelve dollars in a card. Gift card fees, but
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: that's what we got, Mum and made a good time.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: Mum came over with my grandma and my auntie and
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: my sister and Nicolas here and have a girl's uh
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: high tea high tea high tea.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: I made the sandwiches. I fixed them some sandwiches sandwiches.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: It's funny because my mum goes Grandma. She doesn't like cheese,
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: so make sure you just have hammet tomato, and she
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: likes she likes ham sandwiches, and so I mean a
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: shoot load of ham and tomato sandwiches, ham sandwiches. Grandma
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: doesn't touch one of them, touches all the chicken sandwiches.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: I was like, Momy, you said she like ham, and
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: she was like, well normally she does. When you say touching,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: did she actually put any of her mouth that shouldn't
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: eat any of them? Oh, you were just like poking them.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: I made chicken sandwiches as well, but all the hamwtch
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: didn't go near it, didn't touch it. But that's I
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: made the ham one specifically for Grandma because Mom was like,
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: she only really likes ham sandwiches, and then she's like,
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: oh no, but she does. But I guess the chicken
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: ones must have been good. I was like, sure were.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: So we just sent her home with a bunch of sandwiches.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Was was it? Nicola? Well treated on Mother's Day.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Nicola was weld treated. So we was a bunch of
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: just a bunch of crazy crap from the kids. You know,
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: you take the kids at the supermarkets, like Mum would
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: like this.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Mum would like that.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: It was like a mug And they have her Mother's
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: Day stall at school and you send fifteen dollars with
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: them and they just pick out a bunch of crape.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Funny story.
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: One of Elliott's friends goes to this goes to this
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: school more Mother's Day, A fair thing comes back with
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: a whistle, was a whim why for himself? I spent
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: the rest of the money at the canteen. I was
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: like you legend, and now when we keep the footy
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: after school, he plays the umpire with his whistle, you
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: give it to us.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: He kept it.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: Little lord is a little whistle and bought bots some
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: chips for himself at the canteen. But my question is
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: what's the best Mother's Day gift you've ever bought your
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: mum or given your mom? Can you remember besides being born?
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Of course? Well, yeah, I mean I am the greatest
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: gift that is, that's clearly. But when you're in school
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: you make a lot of stuff. As you know, you
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: can go to the stall and buy a lot of
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: holy made a card. Yeah, that was the greatest gift
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: we got my mum. Chips from myself made some nice pottery.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, my mum's still got a vase that I made
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: for her.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: Likewise, Yeah, mine is still sort of floating around. It's like,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: holy moly, that was made back in the eighties. Yeah,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: it's still getting the job done. Yeah. I think I
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: think Mum's ever smoked. She might have smoked like a
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: couple of cigarettes back in the back in the day
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: that you know of that I know of. Yeah, but
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: I think I'm made of something that was probably could
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: have been used as an astralia, and I think she
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: ever did use that as an ASTRAI but it's like, oh,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: this is a nice bit of ceramics around the place.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: So yeah, that was probably probably the nicest thing I think,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: because you know, I legitimately made it was like, IM's
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: really gonna like this. I'm really paying attention on the pottery.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: It was making sure that you know, it look just right,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: and it turned out pretty well.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: It's so funny you brought that up because I think
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: the most long standing gift I've ever got mum is
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: the vase and it's still sitting there on a shelf
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: and she's like, yeah, I love that thing you made
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: from from Mother's Day back in year eight And I
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: was like, that's two thousand and two. Wow, this is
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: like twenty four years. I mean, obviously you made in
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: the eighties, it's even older, ever older. But yeah, sometimes
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: just making them something sure, And as a parent, I
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: now get it's when they made something, it's like, you
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: know what, you put the effort into that.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: So but what do you do? What do you love
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: the most about your mum? Oh my goodness, that's a
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: tough one. I think For me, my mom has just
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: always been supporting, supportive of me, just not wanting to
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: be the norm. You know, I wanted to you know,
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: I quit UNI to sort of do radio and things
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: like that, and I quit my job a few years
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: ago to sort of do podcasting. And I know, deep down,
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: my mum's always just like, oh, I wish you wouldn't
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: do that. But she's never I know she thinks it,
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: but she's never said it. She's always been like, no,
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: you can do it. But I know she I know
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: she believes I can do it, but I can see
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: the fear in her eyes because she is very much
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: the opposite. She is get a job, do it well,
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: and just stay there.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: We are quite similar in that regard, because yeah, I mean,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: I think Mama's mom probably has said it, I wish
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: you had stayed at UNI. Didn't your mom say to
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: you reasons lose a stone or two? Oh yeah, no, painfully honest,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: and she was right to say. She was right to
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: do it. But also it is obvious that every statement
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: is made with love and respect and affection and my
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: best intentions. So yeah, yeah, her best intentions for me,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: I should say. So, I mean that is obvious in
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: everything that she says.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: I think my mom's also she was always, or she
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: is always the mum of all of my friends and
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: my sister's friends. She was just, ah, you know, our
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: house became like a drop in center when we're growing
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: up because all the kids were just because we grew
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: up in Corya and or Lane and all the kids
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: would just you know, maybe not have a very good
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: life at home, and they would just come to stay
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: at our house because they just loved my mum. They
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: always seen my mom as mum. You know, my mom
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: was like that. She was like the communal mum.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: That's adorable. But what's going on? New'sing your word at
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: the moment? Oh my goodness, now doing funeral services. I am. Indeed,

  Speaker 3: episode Codependant Stay, the episode that like, yeah, had the
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: cosmic war.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: So I touched on it.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: On the on the social media, saying this episode features
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: a really weird sidetrack of Star Wars parody. Yaddiada, YadA,
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: and someone goes, I see you made the wiki page.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: I was like, whoa what God damn, that's what it says.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: Reception on four figure Discount Guy Davis and Brendan Danner
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: thought the episode was the shittiest episode they had ever reviewed.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: They said the homo putty margin in the driver seat
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: to avoid a dui was unfuacking, forgivable.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Who put that there?
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: We come across like absolute haters, Yeah, haters, and we're
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: not our language bad boys.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: I think the terrible thing about it? Is it a
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: four figure discount's got.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: Its own wiki page? It looks it doesn't know, I'm
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: going to make one for us now, well yeah, yeah,
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: and put in response saying fair and measured analysis of
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: Simpsons episodes I supposed to just been unre believable haters. Wow,
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: if any episode deserves it, though, it's this one.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: Well that's true. Yeah. I mean, if we are going
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: to be called out or cited, then this is probably
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the case. This is like that time that someone put
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: a little capsule bio of me on my dad's wiki
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: page because my dad was like, oh, that's right. It
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: was like Bob David says, god co has full finger discount.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't want this on Dad's thing. I
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: don't want tinnage Legacy said no, no, no, not that.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: But it's like set up a wiki page for guy. Yeah.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: As a person, I don't think anyone checking out Bob
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Davis's wiki Page's going to go, well Simpson, his son's
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: got our senses, better check this shit out. But it's
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: none of the best intentions. It was indeed, like a
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: lot of things. Now there's some news going out, right,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: do you have any of the news. I mean, I've
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: sort of talked a lot about myself that the news
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: that you want to talk about, But you're on wiki
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: saying things are unfucking believable apparent.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: But I can't believe we have to have this discussion again.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: Why is it? Why is it that news work? I
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: know why they do it because people idiots click on it. Yes,
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: but it's twenty twenty six and we're still going with
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: the headline of the Simpsons predicted things.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: How many times do people have to come out, including
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: the people who work on the show, and say we
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: don't predict things. Things just happen. Yes, because the show
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: has been going for so long. But these news when
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: I say news websites, are not real news websites. They're
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: the clickbait news websites. But they run wild with it.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: And this time it's the hunt of virus on the
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: cruise ship, yes, which is never true if you actually
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: look into the story. So what they're saying is, you know,
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: the Simpsons predicted the hunt of virus on virus on
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: a cruise ship in the episode. I think it's off
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: from season twenty two or maybe thirty, I don't know.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: I will look up the episode. Basically, Bart is on
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: a cruise ship with the family and he doesn't want
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: to get off the cruise so he pretends it's a virus,
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: so they let them get off the cruise ship. So
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: the virus isn't even real in the episode, people aren't
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: getting sick.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: What are we doing here? The funniest thing, We're not
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: going to name this site that put this story together.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: There's plenty of them you can if you want it,
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: but the one that you link to, at least, we're
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: not gonna name it. But I was reading it and
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: going down it's like, it's got the headline did the
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Simpsons predict the hunt of virus outbreak? A lot of preamble.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: You're about maybe eight paragraphs in then you're a little
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: sub head So did it predict the hantavirus? Underneath that? Really?
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Not really? It's scroll us all the ads.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: You already clicked on the link of this particulars What
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: was that though? Marketing Indiana Jones the four K. But yeah,
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: so it says it's from an episode a totally fun
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: thing but will never do again. Season twenty three, episode nineteen,
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: So it won't be far away from that one, okay,
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: but yes, and did he do it? No he didn't, Yes,
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: not really, not really. There are a few things wrong
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: with this prediction to start the virus in the show
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: was fake. In the episode, Bart shows the ship a
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: clip from a movie to make the passagers believe that
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: a virus is taken over the globe.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Now, having said all this, yeah, the unified theory of
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: forefinger discount still applies. It does because hantavirus real thing
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: really existed. There was an outbreak just recently. People passed away.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: It's pretty sad. How long ago on Speaking of the Hill,
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: did we talk about the Hunter virus? Not long ago?
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: This month there was an episode where last week, yeah,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Peggy works as a substitute teacher because the previous teacher
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: got Hunter virus. Yeah, that was the first time I've
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: ever heard about it. And now it's all over the planes.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: So Kick of the Hill predicted it, and we talked
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: about King predicted the entire virus.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: Indeed, So yeah, get your facts right. Title of website
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: I will not name.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're all the same, they're all fake websites. But yeah, no,
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: it didn't. The Simpsons did not predict Hunt of virus.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: On a cruise ship all fake news. I also find
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: to hear it interesting. So the Quebec in French say itbaqua.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: French, I believe.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: So they've been doing obviously dubbing the series The Simpsons
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: for thirty six seasons and then I'm not sure whether
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: the channel lost the riots or something, they didn't renew
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: the license, and then they just stopped doing it in
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: their language. And all the viewers who speak that language
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: are like outrage because saying, what do you mean now
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: we've got to watch it in a different language.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: It doesn't make any sense.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: It's been it's been rectified, and now once again, how
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: do you say it again? Quebec qua keebaqua French is
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: gonna dubbed again. I actually watched the clip they put
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: out on social media of Bart and Lisa speaking the lane.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, how was it? It's it's it's a beautiful language.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: It's just nice. It's just you have no idea what
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: they're saying, but it's just pleasant to listen to. Yeah.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: French just like that. And French Canadian, Yeah, I mean
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: French Canadian French or French Canadian quebec qua is yeah,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: different from say the French that they speak in France.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: Yes, so so Bell Media here I reached a deal
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: with Disney Entertainment to broadcast the series. Bell Media says
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: season thirty six, because they're a season behind.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Also, I love that Inada they're called Lisimson, which looks
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: like Les Simpson. Yeah, it does looks like the Simpsons Australian.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I thought it Simpsons, We're going to Australia to visit
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: my cousin Liz.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: I found it interesting though that for thirty says for
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: thirty five seasons, their language version of the show featured
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: local place names, politicians, current events, and popular ession. So
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: it's a different version of the show. Okay, so what
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: so it's not they changed do they change story on its?
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: What they changed storyline?
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: Probably just change references local place names, politicians, so the reference.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: But then that may have a flow on effect to
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: everything else, right, like current events and things like that.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it very interesting that they wonder if
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: they do it for other languages as well, or it's
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: just this one.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if they did, because as when
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: sure these languages there's cash phrase and what in English
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: that would not transfer. Oh yeah, of course you have to.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: But yeah, so good for the viewers of this of
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: this version of the show getting the show in their language.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: Miss yes, And finally this is one for me of
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: course it is so Songs in the Keys Springfield. I've
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: been constantly saying it needs a vinyl release, needs a
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: vinyl release, one of my favorite music CDs of all time.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: Finally getting a vinyl release, double LP coming out in September.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: I believe you can pre order it. It's just going
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: to be on the Disney Music Imporium website. So I
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: pal over in the States, drop ship. You bought up
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: some goodies for me recently. Whatever I've got, I've got
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: them all for seven dollars Australian.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Wow.

  Speaker 1: Neat Yeah, oh you.

  Speaker 3: Did well, I did well, indeed, Yes, But something's in
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: the key Springfield. You're a fan of the Simpsons, You're
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: obviously gonna love that one.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: It's all right, Well, you know you don't have to
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: buy some new record shows because your yours are they're
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: pretty full straining, they're crammed. All right, question time hit me?
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: This fun This first question of here comes from Aaron Knowles. Hey, guys,
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: with Mother's Day fast approaching or maybe gone by the
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: time you read this, if you were correct eron I
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: was wondering, what what is your favorite Marge moments or quotes?
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: Hm favorite March moments or quotes. One always comes immediately
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: to mind is when gives Marge the photo that he
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: took in Marge being not proud, the directing, the visual
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: of the Marge or tearing up the acting from Julie
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: Kavna there where she knows that's the best thing she's
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: ever were touched on earlier sometimes they did mothers just
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: like the effort. And most are the gifts, And that's
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: one of my favorite Simpsons moments of all time. But
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: it's the button of she then gives him the gift
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: that she thinks is the one that he wanted. It's
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: not what he wanted, but he says that the directing
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: of you see her face, her hopeful face, and he
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: doesn't have the heart to sell her otherwise.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: I love that. Also visually, I've.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: Always loved It's Homer alone when she goes to Rancho
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: relaxo and she just sinks into the bath.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: I was about to say the exact same thing one. Yeah,
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: that's really good. I mean, I love the visioning away
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: to Rancho relax It's like.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: You feel relaxed watching her sink into the laugh.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, anytime Marge lets her head down, we're very happy
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: with that.
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: I think's the same episode two, whereas look, it's better
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: be good just goes crazy a than them, don't.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, because I'm obvious Marge's liking potatoes because
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: she just thinks they're need, she doesn't think they're neat.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: But also that that can I bet on every team
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: just having a good time? It's so true. As someone
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: who is not a gambler, I'm like, can we just
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: bet on boat team they having a good time? That'd
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: be great.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: That's funny obviously, I mean, for obvious reasons, I've never
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: really related to Marge herself or related to the margin
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: homer parenting dynamic. I thinkure there are elements of Marge
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: that I relate to. But do you think she's an
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: underrated character?
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Marge?
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: You don't really get many Marge centric episodes, and they've
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: always said that they found.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Them hard to write. Yeah, but I think the moments
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: that hit with audiences really hit hard and really hit home.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't think she's underrated. I think she's
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: I think she's well used. Could possibly use a little
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: more or a little better, certainly, But yeah, I think
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: the writers might be descanning themselves when they say, oh,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: we don't know how to right Marge, or we have
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: trouble with it sometimes, like I think, more often, nothing
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: yet it right.
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: Her dynamic of being the housewife who stayed home looking
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: after the baby feels kind of dated.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: It does a bit. Yeah, I mean that's just the
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: way society is now, of course, I mean it's it
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: was beaverly relevant when the show started.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: And could they flip the script in like season thirty
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: eight and have Homer be the stay at home dad
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: and Marge be the one going out to earn a living.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: Would it work? That connect?
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: You done againstany and Homer's just not responsible enough. But
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: could you make him. I don't know it's changing the
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: dynamic of the show too much, as I think it
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: would disrupt things too much for it. Yeah, things are
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: sort of some things are bolted on at this stage.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Has there been episodes where home is to stay at home? Oh?
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: They must have been right, and Marge goes, but Marge,
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: I know this. Marge gets a job, but is there
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: Marge gets a job, which means Homer has to stay
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: home and watch the kids. It's such a sitcom kind
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: of trope, isn't They must have missed a mom thing
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: that you think they would have.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Had to have done it in some stage or another. Yeah,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: a lot of stuff, And of course you know Margin
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: and the Chanelle suits. That whole episode I thought was
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: just marvels is not relatable, says He also think it's
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: the best Marge centric episode. That is a great one.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: That's the one for me.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: I've also really liked the Marginal Yeah, Marginal, them's a
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: good one with her with with rift powers. Oh yeah,
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: and Louise parody. But I've liked when She's a cop.
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: That was a group of connections. A good episode.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: Brush of Greatness is another good one, which course, yeah,
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: and go star. Oh it was marvelous. Yeah, it's a
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: good episode. A lot of March episodes of her sort
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: of trying to discover No, you have you do have
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: more to offer, That's correct. I think a problem with
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: this isn't the problem with Marge so much, but I
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: think we've had it in episodes I've made the last
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: few seasons where it's just Homer fucks up and Marge
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: calls him out on it or is upset about it,
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: but eventually forgives him.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: It's like, why no real, Yeah, other than she loves him. Yeah,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: if there's any reason to sort of dislike Marge or
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: the way that margin was in is because you kind
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: of seem like a doormat. Why do you keep going
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: back to this guy when there is every reason not to.
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And it feels like in the earlier season she
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: she was a doormat to an extent, but she would
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: also hold.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Him accountable at least as well. Yes, yeah, yeah, all
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: the stuff that Homer would do to sort of get
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: on the wrong side of Marge or to mess up
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: wasn't quite as bad. I mean, leaving here the courts
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: wheel of a car.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: Next Aaron says, cheers for the last of the last
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: few years, as I've become a new mother myself.
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: Congratulations.
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, this one's from Michael Cameron Dando. You've said
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: you have a big LP collection that focuses on scores.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: What are some of your favorite movie or TV scores?
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: Mine is Halloween. I just think it immediately sets the
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: tone for the film and even the whole vibe of
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: the Halloween season. He's not wrong, Michael Cameron. Isn't that correct? Yeah, well,
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: said Michael. ET is a big one for me. I've
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: always loved ET. I'll never forget. I've said this in
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: the podcast. I'm sure when I got the fortieth it
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: would have been fourtieth anniversary. Yeah, twenty foot and I
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: think it was me thirtieth anniversary LP. My mum purchased
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: for me of ET, and it had I've never heard
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: it before, the score of scenes that have been deleted. Ah,
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: And I remember putting it. I've listened to that score
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: from begin to finish so many times. And this newby
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: came and I went, wait a minute, what is this
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: unfamiliar sound?
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: And I got it out.
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: I was like, oh my god, it's a deleted scene.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: I've never heard the score for it, and it was
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: like discovering gold for me. You know, it was so important.
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: Star Wars was the big one. Couga Pas stars the
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: we say a new Hope. I mean Star Wars the
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: first one. I can hear the entire score in my head,
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: just you know, the jar was seeing that. I've got
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: the classic canteen about bar music. Yeah, but I just
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: think the opening crawl and I can visualize in my head.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: I listened to it so many times and watched it
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: when the Imperial Starstars going over, I can. It's like
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: something John Williams. I mean, I mean in particular Hero. Yes,
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: what are some non John Williams scores that you love?
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Though? Terminator? I love Terminator's great. It's a guy called
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: Michael Gaccino like a lot he's he did stuff that
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: The Incredibles, Cloverfield. I don't think I've got the clover
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: Field one. Pretty sure did clover Field the movie John
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Carter is a notorious flop. I really quite like it.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: And it's got fantastic music. Yeah. So, and Giaquino did that.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: He does some stuff for the mission in one of
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: the at least one of the mission in Possible Movies.
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: I've always really loved Alan Savestrie's score for Mac and Me.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I can't say I know any of it.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: Again, it's just one of those scores we touched on
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: up recently. We're talking about Free Willie. Now you hear
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: that score and takes you back to being a kid. Yeah,
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: I hadn't heard. I didn't watched the movie for twenty
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: five years, and that music came and I went, oh wow.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: I used to listen to this music every day when
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: I watched the movie.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean John Williams kind of the Bell
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: and end All, although Hans Zimmer it's come to be
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: the modern equivalent of that. There's a guy I like
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: named John Powell. He did the music for the Bourne
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: movies and also for my beloved How to Train Your Dragon,
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: which has got some of the greatest music. Howard Sure's
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: music that the Lord of the Rings trilogy is fantastic.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: Did he do seven? I believe so. Yeah. Yeah, Award
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: Shaw was a pretty interesting cat. He's had a long
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: and very career. Now, I made the mistake with this before,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: so I don't want to get it wrong again. We
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: might have to reach and get that copy of Deep Rising,
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: because I think Alan Silvestri did the soundtrack for a look,
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: shall we it's either him or Jerry Goldsmith like it.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: We've got it here on VHS. This is Jerry Goldsmith,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: he did Gremlins. Yeah, I need total recall Jerry, the Gremlins.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: The Gremlins theme. It's spooky but it's fun. Oh yeah,
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: it perfectly encapsulates what Gremlins is. Yeah, it's a horror movie,
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: but it's not a gory horror movie. It's a spooky,
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: wacky it's like insanity, it's lutitudes, it's like a side show. Yeah,
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: it's like you've gone, yeah, gone to the circus and
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: the Gremlins have taken over the circuit. Deep Rising, folks,
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: We're going to probably do it on the movie Guard
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: one of these days. But Jerry Goldsmith is one of
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: those movies that I never knew existed, and do I
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: told me about it, and I'm so glad it did.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: And now he's got it on load for such a
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: good movie. Though. Yeah, it's a look at that back cover.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Whoever made the back cover there did a terrible job.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: It looks blurry background, it looks like they've stretched it
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: too far. I know, I don't think would I pick
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: this up and go as a kid and go, I
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: want to watch this full scream ahead. I'm getting it
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: because it says full ahead. So yeah, there's some of
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: my guys.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: Absolutely yes, all right, next one here greeting's friends aka
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: Dando and Guy or Guy and Dando. My name is Tamara.
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: I'm nineteen and love your podcast. I actually discovered you
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: through TV launch pod of all Things Wow, when you
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: review the pilot of Buffy. Simpsons is my favorite show
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: of all time, and I was so excited to discover
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: a podcast about it that had so many episodes already
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: recorded and was actually good.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: It's not to be known as actually good.
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: I'm currently a bartender in Melbourne as I studied criminology. Wow,
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: And the other day I was watching Flaming Mo's and
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: wonder what it would be like to work at Mo's.
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: So my question is, if you lived in Springfield, where
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: would you like to.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: Work and why? I'd be an Android's Dungeon Guy.
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: I thought the same thing, but then I thought about
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: Androids Dungeon and I thought, is Androids Dungeon the waight?
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: It represents comic book store culture. Is it dated now
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six, If it's this, if these comic
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: book guys the same way, I feel like comic book
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: stores now are more of a welcoming community, one would hope.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, it felt like when when he was
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: first introduced to the show, it was that it was like,
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: this is my word, your dweebs, your nerves, get away
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: from me. Well I know more than you. But now
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: it's like, hey, come on, guys, let's all share. Let's
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: all share the love of our fandoms.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: Well that's the thing. I mean, early episode of The
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: Simpsons are very other pre Internet, of course. So the
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: kind of person who was the repository of all knowledge
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: about pop culture was kind of like, oh, it's like
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: going to se Yoda. Yeah that's right.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah and yeah, And they had not necessarily the right,
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: but they had they'd earned some kind of a wealth
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: of useless knowledge, yes, and the right to.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: Sort of laud it over you a little bit like that.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: But you know, now we can access information a lot
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: and we've all found our various tribes and everything like that.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: So yeah, there is a lot less gatekeeping, for better
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: and for worse.
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: But Andrew started to just feels like a fun place
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: to work. I mean, I think as a kid, I
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: would have loved to have worked in a bookstore.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: Oh god, yeah, I mean one of my one of
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: my dreams was always to have like a bookstore, videoto bookstore.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: You said, this audio bookstore? Yeah, where else can we work? Though?
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: In Springfield some way?
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: That's fun? I don't obviously not going to say most,
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: because that's what what Tomara has said.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, power Plan. I wouldn't want to work at the
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: power plant. That's not fun at all. Maybe the az
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: Tech Theater, and I was possibly Costington's. I would have
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: mind working at Costington.
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: Yes, I've always liked the idea of working at a cinema.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: I never did. No, I never did either.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: And you look at the kids now, they look kind
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: of miserable. Yeah, well there's but the cinemas in the
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: nineties eighties would have been more pumped.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Well, there was more stuff to do as well. I mean,
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: it seems like with every decade the passes, more and
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: more responsibility has been taken away in terms of like
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, it used to me that they would show
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: you to your seat, you know, you'd get a paper
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: ticket like we'll rip that, and was like, okay, well
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: you'll you can sit here if you like.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: They're doing gold class, but that's it. Yeah, I don't
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: even doing gold class to get in there. So when
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: do you want your food? Hurry up there.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to think where else one could work at Springfield.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Somewhere that's fun. You would at the school, would you
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: hear like a substitute teacher or something. Maybe we'll be
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: the quickie mart No, that'd be no. You get hald
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: up by snake all the time. I don't have to
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: deal with like the kids or Homer. Yes, all right,
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: but then thank you for the question. Tomorrow. Yeah, I'm
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: looking good luck with the criminology studies, yeah, and working
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: out a bar. And but thank you for your very
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: nice note. We really appreciated that.
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: She says, thanks again for the hours of entertainment. It's
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: always relaxing and listening to you both after a night
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: of hearing loud music and drunken ramblings. I promised to
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: become a patron before the end of the year.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: Tomorrow. That's dope. Thank you. Hi Dan and guy.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: My name is Lance Morris and I live in Ohio
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: in the USA. I've been listening to the show for
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: close to ten years at this point. I believe I
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: discovered the show around three or season three or four,
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: back when Mitch was doing it. I don't think I
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: really have a question in this email, but something today
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: compelled me to write in. I'm typing this as I've
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: rewatched Last Days at the Springfield for the fiftieth time.
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: I have one tattoo, and it's the Home in the
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: Bush's scene that has since become a meme.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: How annoying must that be?
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: Because I feel like the Homer and the Bush's meme
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: has become so watered down now it's the most merchandise
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: moment of The Simpsons. When he got it, it was like, Yeah,
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: it's a cool work for the Simpsons. This is my
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: secret handshake, Like everyone's wearing a Home in the Bush's
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: t show.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: Sorry about that, Lance, but I bet you're enjoying it. Yeah.
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: I made sure to watch Her at the Bat before
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: my wedding last year. I quote the show seemingly daily
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: without even trying to. I'm also a big fan of
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: South Park, along with Seiinfeld and friend who I've listened
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: to as much of those shows that you do as possible.
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: Just wanted to say thanks for doing what you guys
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: doing for the countless hours I've spent listening to the show.
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: I'd say something funny to end this email, but higoons are.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: At my door. Lance, you just said something funny at
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: the end. Yes, well, I've got a cool bait and switch.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: Well done. You good reference Yeah, man, Hi good.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: Speaking of Last Eggs at Springfold, I hope you guys
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: enjoyed our chat with Jay Cogan exactly just last eegit
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: at Springford, just about his career in general. I thought
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: it was a really fun conversation. We enjoyed the chat absolutely,
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: and he seemed.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: To as well.
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: It seemed he went into the show with expectations of
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: that we're going to be Dix. He's like, you know what,
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: you guys, He isn't so bad another but bad things.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: Represented and Lance congratulates on your recent marriage.
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: Yes, dear guy Andando, I've not long listened to the
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: podcast on the curling episode and have a little story
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: for you regarding Australian curling that I think you might enjoy.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: Will be the judges of that, but go ahead.
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: I'm the feature writer for World curling, and last year
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: I interviewed the skip, the captain of the Australian women's team,
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: Helen Williams. When we were talking, it turns out that
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: she'd lived two flats away from me in Glasgow when
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: she was a student. Helen was a Scottish junior curler
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: who played alongside the future Olympic gold medalist ronup Martin.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: But after injuring herself when trying to impress some boys
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: on holiday, what you reckon?
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: She did?
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: What do you can run to do to injure yourself?
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: Jumping off a cliff face?
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Oh? What was it? Curling? Related to trying to brushing
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: like crazy, trying to do like a headstand and on
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: the bar, on the on the on the bar itself.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: Oh you're a pro sportsman, do something athletic. I'm curly. No, no, no,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: you respect to curlers. Yeah. It was probably something like
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: handstand on the bar or something new. Do you run
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: abe sip Dave on banana peel. Anyway, she heard herself
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: trying to impress some boys in holiday, she was out
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: for a while and decided to go traveling. She went
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: to Australia and never left. Sorry, I'm misrepresented that. I
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: think it was a Helen. It wasn't Rona who injured Sevel,
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: was Helen. It was Helen. Yes, Okay.
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: Years later she would be approached by someone who wanted
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: to get Australian curling moving and heard she was great
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: at curling back home in Scotland. She was an important
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: part in the continuation of Australian curling and the country's
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: eventual debut at the Olympic Games in the mixed doubles
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: in twenty twenty two. So if a lassie hadn't injured
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: herself on holiday, Australia's curling scene wouldn't maybe not be
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: as good as it is now. She's for the years
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: of entertainment. Mick from Glasgow, Mick, thank you for that story.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: A brief history on curling of Australia. Australian curling at
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: that wow.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I mean you thought it was just you know, the
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: province of the Canadians, but no, no, we're doing it
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: down Under. So if you want to make it in
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: the Olympics, try to impress some boys on holiday, get injured,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: move somewhere else. That's You've got to be your origin story,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: got to be your superhero origin story. I really want
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: to know what Helen did to impress the boys Justine
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: to get in touch and imagine the boy she was
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: trying to press absolute dickheads too. Oh yeah, and the
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: final one here, Hi, guys, love listening to you guys
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: on the way to work or in the gym. Keep
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: up the great work. Here's my question.
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: Have you found a new love for a series that
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: you now do a podcast on or later episodes of
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: The Simpsons. I think I've found a new love for
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: South Park from doing that on the South Park because
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: I only really watched the first couple of seasons, and
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: now i'd watch it now and then, like when a
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: big one like the Warcraft one coming old, the Michael
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: Jackson one when it was big news, I would watch
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: those ones, but I wasn't watching it week to week,
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: And I think going back and reviewing these episodes, I've
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: realized it's just nice watching the show. Just the show evolved,
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: but Parker and Stone evolve as mature.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, as storytellers and makers of art. Absolutely yeah. Yeah.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: For mine, I would say King of the Hill in
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: all honesty, yeah, and never a huge King of the
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Hill fan back in the day, but really watching it, Yeah,
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: rewatching it for these for these episodes that we're doing,
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: It's like, God, this is so well put together, really
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: really funny in a dry sort of way, but a
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: way that I really respond to, and it's just so enjoyable.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: Do you think you have to be older to enjoy
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: kicking this? I reckon so yeah, Yeah, I honestly think so. Yeah.
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: I don't think anyone under the age of twenty is
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: really enjoying King of the Hill to the level. I
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: think you have to have experienced Bobby's life and a
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: bit of Hank's life as well. It's a bitter like that, Yeah,
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: because Hank is not You can't really compare Hank and Homer.
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: Oh no, because Homer is funny because he's just a
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: blithering fool, where Hank's it's more Hank's perspectives.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: It's just put off the world. Yeah, trying to keep
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: pace with the modern world. Absolutely.
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: But I've definitely definitely later episodes of the season of
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: The Simpsons that I've discovered, well, I think that.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Surprised us as well, because you know, we're over mind.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: It's all going to go downhill from here. There's gonna
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: be no good episodes, like well, even if they even
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: the whole episode of say season twenty one or a
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: season twenty episode is not cent of my liking, there's
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: still bits and pieces in here. How many times have
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: we said, oh, that wouldn't be out of place in
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: a Golden Age episode. What we'd like to do is
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: we take what they made and we create an episode
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: of our minds of what it should have been.
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: We fixed it, We fix things, and we go see
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: it was a good season.
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so unlike that Wikipedia entry, we don't think everything
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: is unrecking believable.
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: I'm like, we need to kind of fix that. We
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: come across like such the shittiest episode, we got to
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: change that. Al Jesus watching that or reading that, going
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: never gone to that show.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: I shouldn't have spoken to those guys. I thought austreams
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: were cool.
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: Yes, but one of the things that we touched on
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: with our gene it's gone viral and we were the
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: ones that sort of like got the scoop, and Al
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: Jean gave us the scoop was the revival of the critic.
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they've been talks about it, but he pretty
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: much said, I'm happy to say publicly. Now it's probably
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: going to happen. Cool, I'm excited for that. Have you
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: revisited the critic at all?
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: I have not.
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: No, I'm going to give you the DVDs these just
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: down on them whatever. But I rewatched the first three
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: episodes and d the other night. I think it is
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: a show that you would adore. Okay, Cool, it's Family
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: Guy before Family Guy, but it's much more reserved than
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: Family Guy. It's not stupidity cutaways.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: It's what it is.
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: It's movie cutaways. Oh no, but it's parodies so like
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: it's it's like there's a parody of like Alien and
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: swartz Andegger. In the first episode, it's because he's talking
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: about a film, and then it's cutaways to like a
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: parody of a certain film that he's talking about. It's
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: I think you would absolutely love to create it. I
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: think that should be one of those shows that we
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: do as a Patreon exclusive.
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: It's not a bad idea. All right, Well, giveing them
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: DVDs and yeah, we'll start putting together some.
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: Ap or throw it out to the patrins votes. So
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: we've got one more month of Speaking of the Hill.
• 39:36

  Speaker 3: talking soe Fel for a while, but people people have
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: voted speak of the Hill. It could be Bob's Pods

  Speaker 3: here're talking Seinfeld, Bob's Pods or at the Hill.
