Nicolas Cage - Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson vs The Heat-Seeking Panthers · Fandomonium! A Fandom Comedy Game Show

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: You're listening to a Lilypad production.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: Hello LeapFrogs, welcome back to Fandemonium, and we have a
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: very special episode for you this week. As you can
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: tell from the title, maybe not super clearly because it
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: could look as though it's a Dwayne the Rock Johnson episode,
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: which we may get to, this is our Nick Cage Fandemonium.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: This episode came about because Ivan Grossman, brilliant improviser, member
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: of the flock, member of Pretendium. He revealed to me
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: a few months ago that he is a huge fan
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: of Nicolas Cage and has decorated his house in a
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Nick Cage manner. That is very Fandemonium energy. We'd wanted
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: to record with Ivan for a bit now. It just
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: felt like the perfect time to put this episode together.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: His fellow teammates, Charles Hogue, joined us on the panel
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: as well. Charles is a wonderful improviser. Great to have
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: two flock members on the same episode. And Charles is
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: also a sports fan. So I know I've been pushing
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: for sports-based fandomoniums for a bit now. We might finally
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: have found a sports fan gang, and his name is Charles.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: And returning guest, Ethan Goldman, owner of the Peak Improv Theatre.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Comedy wizard, all-round legend. Always fantastic to have Ethan on
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: the lineup. They all joined Audra for this brilliantly unique fandomonium,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: and it was unique because we did record it at
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: the Peak Improv Theatre, but it wasn't a ticketed event.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: So it doesn't quite have the same anarchic live show energy,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: something that on the next episode I promise will be there.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: But the improv community here in Colorado Springs is so
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: brilliantly supportive that a great number of improvisers, performers, students...
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: stuck around after class and helped us make this show
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: happen whether they were helping behind the scenes on the
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: cameras or with the audio setup or if they were
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: just there being a fantastic audience they really made this
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: episode happen so it's a little more intimate than a
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: usual live show but has a little more energy than
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: a regular studio show it's kind of in between And
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: if you head over to atgateleaperspod on Instagram, over the
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: course of the next week or two, we will be
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: posting some clips from that record, where we filmed it
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: from a few different angles to try and get some
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: more unique clips posted. So you'll see how that looks
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: in the experiment. I've not actually made those clips yet.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: I should probably do that. I'm recording this intro before
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I do that.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Smart!
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: This was such a fun time. I just got finished
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: editing it and it brought me so much joy to
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: revisit this moment from last month. It's just a classic Fandemonium.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: I love it so much. I love what I get
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: to do. I love how supported myself, Audra, and everyone
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: at Fandemonium feels by the improv community here in Colorado Springs.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: And there's more exciting things on the horizon. But news
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: of that will be coming very soon. But for now,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: we're just going to keep rolling with these fantastic fandemoniums.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: So here it is, the fandemonium of Nicolas Cage. Hello
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: and welcome to Fandomonium, the pop culture game show that
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: shines a spotlight onto everyone's favorite fandoms. I'm your games
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: master and rubber-faced FBI agent, Matt Watson. But a games
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: master needs games and games need players, so please welcome first.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: She's our resident panelist, a podcaster and comedian who works
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: in STEM, which today stands for shamanic.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: That's an extreme method. It's Audra Stevenson.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: Woo!
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: Hello!
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: And he is an improviser, sandwich eater, and member of
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: the Flock and Pretendium.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: And when I heard his house.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Was filled with Nick Cage merch, I immediately started writing
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: this episode.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: It's Ivan Grossman!
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Welcome, Audra and Ivan.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: How are you both doing?
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: We're good. Sir, I'm good. No, no. You heard the gentleman.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: We're good. Oh, no.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Excellent team camaraderie right out the gates there.
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: United.
• 4:40
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Fantastic.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Sorry, I've just noticed what's on the table, but I
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: won't address it yet. Ivan, we, as I said up top,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: we all know you're a fan of Nicolas Cage. How
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: much of a fan of Nicolas Cage are you? You know,
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: I'm a decent fan.
• 4:56
  Speaker 8: I haven't seen all of his movies because there's so
• 4:58
  Speaker 8: dang many of them.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Sure.
• 5:01
  Speaker 8: But I really like the idea of him and I
• 5:04
  Speaker 8: find a lot of creative inspiration from him.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're going to pick apart liking the idea of him.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: There's a lot to pick apart. And Audra, what about yourself?
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Are you a fan of Nick Cage?
• 5:17
  Speaker 9: I have seen films.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Films, films, films.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Films, films, films, films, films.
• 5:27
  Speaker 9: I like being chanted at.
• 5:29
  Speaker 10: I know that it's like you're either a dictator or
• 5:32
  Speaker 10: you're about to be killed.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Or both, or both. To contain multitudes.
• 5:39
  Speaker 10: But to be able to be chanted at and it
• 5:41
  Speaker 10: not mean either of those things, absolutely incredible. I have
• 5:45
  Speaker 10: seen a few films. Nick Cage films, and every single
• 5:49
  Speaker 10: one of them has been a delight.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Well, it feels like you've got some knowledge, and Ivan's
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: bringing a good chunk of knowledge. Not all of them,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: because he's made so many, but.
• 5:58
  Speaker 9: Jesus Christ.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Okay, well, now we're going to return to the pin
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: of what you like about Nicolas Cage, Ivan. What is
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: your favorite thing about Nick Cage?
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I think... Of course, I don't know him as a person.
• 6:13
  Speaker 8: This could all be like celebrity propaganda and my life
• 6:19
  Speaker 8: is a lie. But his acting feels so sincere and
• 6:25
  Speaker 8: it comes from like he puts his whole into every
• 6:30
  Speaker 8: role that he's in.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: He is there and he is. Fully invested into that role.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: He puts his whole hole into it.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Whole hole.
• 6:43
  Speaker 10: And I do know Nick Cage personally, and my favorite
• 6:46
  Speaker 10: thing about Nick Cage.
• 6:48
  Speaker 9: Is how he smells.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: In the morning.
• 6:51
  Speaker 8: I bet you he does smell good.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 6:55
  Speaker 9: I bet he does smell good.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: And with that, Audra answered the question I had for
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: her on the document, so.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: Give it up for Ivan and Audra.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Thank you. But they will need some opponents, someone to
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: face off with. That's the first reference of many. He
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: is a theater owner, program director, and improviser at the
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Peak Improv Theater, and you can catch him on the
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: superhero TTRPG podcast Team Up. So I told him this
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: episode was about Luke Cage.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Surprise!
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: It's Ethan Goldman!
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: And he is an improviser, portal holer.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Portal holer!
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: And a member of Pilot Soup and The Flock, a
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: long-form improv team, and not those cameras that record you
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: as you leave the gym. It's Charles Hoag, if I've
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: pronounced that correctly.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: You got it, buddy.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Yes!
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Hoag! Karate, piss hog. First time I've said it out loud.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Always a risk. Welcome, Ethan. Welcome, Charles.
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: How are you both doing?
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: We're good, thanks. I got you. Thank you, Ethan.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Glad you're both doing good. Ethan, let's start with you.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Are you a fan of Nicolas Cage?
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: I am. I would say medium fan. I agree with Ivan.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I love that he never phones anything in. and just
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: like puts his whole ass in there. I love his
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: whole ass, you know, like his ass, his whole, like
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: the whole ass of him is good. Yeah, you mentioned,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you knew that, but the Cage
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: in Nicolas Cage does come from Luke Cage. Oh, does
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: it really? Yeah, he does. Yeah, he picked his own
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: last name because he's a Coppola, and that's a fun fact.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Went with his like, one of his favorite comic book characters.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Yep, he loves Luke Cage. Nice, okay.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: It was reference and you get to get some nerdy
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: superhero shit in.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah.
• 8:46
  Speaker 10: Woo!
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: And Charles, what about yourself? Are you a fan of
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: Nick Cage?
• 8:51
  Speaker 11: I wouldn't call myself a fan necessarily.
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: I'm not like a Cage file like Diamond is over there.
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: But one of the things that him and I do
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: have in common, it's two things. It's that we both
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: love New Orleans, my favorite place to travel to in
• 9:06
  Speaker 6: the U.S., and we're both deeply in debt.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: And Charles, it may come up later. Not your debt, sorry,
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: Nicolas Cage's. I'd like to ask you both, just because
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: it says here on my sheet, I've got to. Ethan,
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: what's your favourite thing about Nicolas Cage?
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Ghost Rider.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, more superhero stuff on brand.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: I like when his head turns into a flaming skull,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: but it's still Nicolas Cage under there.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one of those scenarios where they hire an actor,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: but then don't get to use his face.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: So you've like overpaid.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: It's the funniest thing.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: So it's your favorite thing, and it's the funniest thing
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: about Nick Cage. Yeah, 100%.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: It's like they're always covering up Tom Hardy's face for
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: some reason. in movies more Nick Cage face coverings please
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: love when we don't have to look at his face.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: Any comment on that Ivan or how do you feel
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: about Nick Cage's face.
• 10:12
  Speaker 8: You know I love looking at his face but I
• 10:15
  Speaker 8: do agree that I like when he's a creature.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: And what about yourself, Charles? What's your favorite thing about
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Nicolas Cage?
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: You know, I love the wide range of emotions that
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: he's not afraid to get himself into. I feel like
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: you have him figured out one moment, and then, like,
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: he's just losing his mind the next.
• 10:35
  Speaker 11: And.
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it just really inspires me to be like.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: That, you know?
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: Charles, I think I speak for everyone here when I
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: say I can't wait for you to lose your mind
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: in the next episode.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: Okay, fantastic.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Now, before we move on to the next segment, I've
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: got six words on my document here that says, interrogate
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: Ivan's passion for Nick Cage. So I guess I'd like
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: to leave this open to the panel. I will throw
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: out the first fact I heard, and that's that you
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: have a lot of Nick Cage merch in your house.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: Your house is decorated with Nick Cage furniture, merchandise? I
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: don't call it merch.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: It's paraphernalia. It is.
• 11:16
  Speaker 8: I haven't necessarily purchased him merch, from him himself directly,
• 11:22
  Speaker 8: you know, but people have gifted it to me over
• 11:26
  Speaker 8: the years. I have pillows with his face on it.
• 11:30
  Speaker 8: I've got like one of those sequin pillows that you know.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Like change. What's on the other side? Is it just sequins? Yeah,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: it's just blue. I was stoked that it was going
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: to be John Travolta. Write that down. Yeah, million dollar idea.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: John Travolta, Nick Cage. John Travolta, Nick Cage. That would
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: be cool. I don't know if I want John Travolta's
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: face on my pillow. No, no, you want it.
• 11:52
  Speaker 8: I've got a big flesh colored Nicolas Cage face blanket.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Amazing.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Is it one of those blankets you can wear?
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: No, no.
• 12:07
  Speaker 8: It's one of those small kind of novelty blankets, so
• 12:10
  Speaker 8: it's more distressing than comfortable. I think that really speaks
• 12:15
  Speaker 8: to his acting.
• 12:19
  Speaker 10: He's not afraid to be distressed and uncomfortable. Yeah.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: So it's like a small blanket?
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'm a.
• 12:28
  Speaker 8: I don't know. I'm like a tall guy and it's
• 12:31
  Speaker 8: not long enough to cover me.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Doesn't cover your feet. Yeah. That sounds distressing.
• 12:36
  Speaker 8: But I drape it on my couch, so I open
• 12:39
  Speaker 8: the door and his face is just there.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: So everyone else can be distressed by this. Yeah, and then,
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: of course, I have my framed beautiful portrait.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: I believe.
• 12:52
  Speaker 8: This is from the 1999 edition of Rolling Stone magazine.
• 12:59
  Speaker 8: I have it on my desk where I do writing
• 13:02
  Speaker 8: and I draw inspiration from it. It fuels my creativity.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Look at the hair on that chest though. I know.
• 13:11
  Speaker 10: I was questioning if it was Rolling Stone and then
• 13:13
  Speaker 10: I saw the amount of visible chest hair.
• 13:17
  Speaker 9: All doubt was erased.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: When I'm like stuck Creatively like writing. I'll like touch it.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Sure.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: It's like good luck. I don't know. Yeah, you've got
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: to have rituals.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love that.
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: Thank you for bringing a portion of your terrifying house
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: in today.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Anyone else have any questions for Ivan about his deep
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: love of Nick Cage?
• 13:39
  Speaker 6: I have a question for you, Ivan. What was it
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: that like started your love of Nick Cage?
• 13:43
  Speaker 7: Sure.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: What's your origin story? So I.
• 13:47
  Speaker 8: I think the first movie I ever saw of his
• 13:50
  Speaker 8: was National Treasure as a child.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 13:53
  Speaker 8: It was that and Ghost Rider, like the two that
• 13:56
  Speaker 8: stick out in my mind. And those didn't capture me
• 14:01
  Speaker 8: as a fan. It was honestly an ironic love of
• 14:04
  Speaker 8: the memes that were being created about him in the
• 14:07
  Speaker 8: early 2000s.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: Sure.
• 14:07
  Speaker 8: And then as I delved into him more, I have
• 14:11
  Speaker 8: like a genuine love for him now.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: That's really good. I'm going to say a nerdy cultural
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: thing right now and I might edit it out because
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: it's really boring. But this is like such a great
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: example of the era we're in now of post-ironic new
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: sincere where a lot of like young millennials, old Gen
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Z grew up being like treating everything ironic or like
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: a meme, but then sorted between the things that they
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: actually did like and didn't like and sincerely carved a
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: path of love and joy of various things.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: And that includes Nicolas Cage.
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: And I think his, his acting.
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: Style really helps like accentuates that because he, he doesn't
• 14:50
  Speaker 8: shoot for realism with like his portrayals of people.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: It is incredibly like over the top.
• 14:57
  Speaker 8: Um, from what I understand, partially like some silent film era, German, uh, expressionism, yeah, expressionism, um,
• 15:06
  Speaker 8: where he doesn't seek to portray like a realistic person.
• 15:11
  Speaker 8: He seeks to portray these hyper characters and it kind
• 15:18
  Speaker 8: of like you said there's an irony there but you
• 15:22
  Speaker 8: know some people say it's bad acting i say it's
• 15:24
  Speaker 8: incredibly interesting to watch.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah you know agreed it's he's always whether i come
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: away thinking wow that was an amazing performance or a
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: bad performance.
• 15:32
  Speaker 10: It was always an interesting oh absolutely yeah And there
• 15:35
  Speaker 10: is a split of like, oh, that was bad, or
• 15:38
  Speaker 10: holy shit, that was incredible.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: What is happening?
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: Okay, we've got poignant.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Quick, in the last 30 seconds, someone ask if he
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: does anything to the pillow.
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: I draw other kinds of inspiration from it.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Okay, teams, you arrive on the set of your uncle's
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: new movie, but you don't want your co-stars to accuse
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: you of nepotism. So you're going to need to change
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: your name to something memorable yet inconspicuous, like Steel Jail.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: No, too macho, Nick Cage. Yeah, that's better.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: With that in mind, I'd like each pair to come
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: up with a Nick Cage-themed team name, please.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: Let's start with Audra and Ivan.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: What have you got?
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Any ideas?
• 16:21
  Speaker 10: I was thinking, oh, I'll like rework the name of
• 16:24
  Speaker 10: a film that he has.
• 16:26
  Speaker 9: And then there was so many movies, I got overwhelmed.
• 16:31
  Speaker 10: Um, so there we got the national treasures or the
• 16:37
  Speaker 10: Lords of war.
• 16:38
  Speaker 9: Those aren't changed.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Shit.
• 16:40
  Speaker 9: Uh, the, the bearable weight of talent.
• 16:49
  Speaker 8: Um, my thought, I forget what the interview was, but
• 16:55
  Speaker 8: he has this quote where he's, he's himself being interviewed.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: It's not a character.
• 17:00
  Speaker 8: Um, And he says something along the lines of, I
• 17:03
  Speaker 8: am not a lion or a shark or a tiger.
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: I am a heat-seeking panther.
• 17:09
  Speaker 8: I like heat-seeking panthers.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: All right, we've got the heat-seeking panthers. Excellent name. Let's
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: find out who they'll be facing. Ethan, Charles, any ideas?
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, boy. Well, I've got some real bangers, I think,
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: that I've thought of in the last 10 to 15 seconds,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: which include the wicker men, the weather men, and the
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: con air boys.
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: I feel like it should be like a barbershop duet
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: being the, what was the last one?
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Con Air Boys? Con Air Boys. Feels real lazy.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Did you have something better than that, Travis?
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: I found no inspiration for the name, so I'm of
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: no help, but I thought about it and I was like,
• 17:55
  Speaker 6: what would be a better name for a team name
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: for Nick Cage than just Nick Cage itself? And what
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: if we were just named Nick Cage? That is worse
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: than mine.
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: Absolutely.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: Okay, oh, I have one other idea that just came
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: to me right now. Because he's in The Rock, right? Sure.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Dwayne The Rock Johnson.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: A different person's name.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: There's a part of me that likes Charles because it's
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: so bad that it's good, which some people say Nick Cage.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: That's his style, so it works on a couple levels.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: But I also do like the idea of Nick. This
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: episode is titled Nick Cage, Dwayne The Rock Johnson versus.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Think of the SEO, Matt.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, they'll think we have two high-profile guests.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: They'll think one of your guests is Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
• 18:47
  Speaker 9: Yeah, and he's fighting a sea panther.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: We might fool some people.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: That's awesome.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: Okay, so you're going with Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Are
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: you happy with that, Charles?
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: I think we're happy with that.
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: All right, we've got Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah! Versus the.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Actually, I'm not writing these down today because we have
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: Kristen on scores.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: Give it up for Kristen.
• 19:06
  Speaker 10: Woo!
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: Kristen, could you remind me of their team name?
• 19:10
  Speaker 10: We got Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: And we have Heat Seeking Panthers.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Heat Seeking Panthers.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: Fantastic.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: Also, we are trying something new with our studio record today.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: So because we're going to do fancy things with cameras,
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: we needed more people. Please give it up for our
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: wonderful crew who you might be able to hear tonight.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Crew, crew, crew.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: And for the six of you wonderful people sat in
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: the row, just pretend you're holding boom mics or something,
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: doing something else.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: There's 30 of us!
• 19:47
  Speaker 11: Yeah!
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: Just Julia doing different voices.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: No one's ever said that.
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: Okay, teams, are we ready for some games?
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's hop on our motorcycle and blaze a trail
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: for over-the-top performances in round one! Round one is called Listermania.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: In turns, I will give each player a list of
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: five Nicolas Cage movies. They will have 90 seconds on
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: the clock to try and communicate all five movies for
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: their teammate to guess without using any of the words
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: in the title of the movie. They can describe the plot,
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: If they don't know the movie, give clues to the words,
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: or just make helpful sounds. All right, let me get
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: my little lists here.
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: Yes, paper.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: And first up, we're gonna have Ivan describing for Audra
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: to guess. So Ivan, there is your list of five,
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: don't let Audra see.
• 20:58
  Speaker 9: I'm sweating.
• 20:59
  Speaker 11: Just like Nick Cage.
• 21:02
  Speaker 9: I'm in the zone.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: Didn't set it before, so it's gonna make this clicking noise.
• 21:08
  Speaker 8: Click, click, click, click, click, click, click.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: I did it one too many.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: They're gonna have one extra second and we're all gonna
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: be okay with it.
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: Scandals.
• 21:19
  Speaker 11: Reeks. Wait, he doesn't go to protests.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: I saw in the moment a need to rely on
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: writing down the team names and I've completely forgotten. Hypersonic Panthers,
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: something like that?
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: No, Heat Seeking Panthers! It's piss hot, man. Right?
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Heat Seeking Panthers, are you ready?
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: Your time starts now. Gotta steal that Declaration of Independence.
• 21:50
  Speaker 10: National Treasure 1!
• 21:51
  Speaker 11: Yeah, uh.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: I'm spooky and I'm on a motorcycle.
• 21:56
  Speaker 9: Ghost rider.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I make magic happen.
• 22:04
  Speaker 9: Nicholas Cage.
• 22:05
  Speaker 8: No, I'm like a wizard, but not quite a wizard.
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: A magician?
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: And I study under somebody.
• 22:12
  Speaker 9: A magician's apprentice.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Close, close, close.
• 22:15
  Speaker 9: The wizard's apprentice?
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the other kind of wizard.
• 22:16
  Speaker 9: The sorcerer's apprentice.
• 22:20
  Speaker 8: This is a national tragedy. And it doesn't exist anymore.
• 22:27
  Speaker 8: Because it got blown up in a very famous attack.
• 22:30
  Speaker 10: Okay, just the Empire State Building?
• 22:33
  Speaker 11: The Twin Towers?
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: No, that's still there. That's still there.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: There was two of them.
• 22:39
  Speaker 9: No, the Twin Towers? I don't remember what the.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: Kind of, but the other name.
• 22:43
  Speaker 10: World Trade Center.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: Oh, man, he was an alcoholic in this one, and
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: he loved pills. He was a cop.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: He was a cop.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: There's a rank of a cop that I think is
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: above a sergeant. Oh.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: Captain.
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: No, longer.
• 23:04
  Speaker 8: Kurt, a lieutenant. Yes, and he's not a good lieutenant.
• 23:10
  Speaker 8: A bad lieutenant. And then there's a long afterwards.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: That's your time, I'm afraid. That was great.
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: You got four out of five full points there.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Pretty successful.
• 23:26
  Speaker 11: Sure.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: It was bad lieutenant, port of call, New Orleans.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: It was a long one, but you got World Trade Center.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 23:38
  Speaker 9: Eventually. God, we eventually got there.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: You said National Tragedy, and I was like, is that
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: one of the sequels to National Tragedy?
• 23:49
  Speaker 10: God, I'm such a coward. You said National Tragedy, and
• 23:51
  Speaker 10: I almost just said 9-11. And everyone would have done this.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: And everyone. Not like when King Kong destroyed the Empire
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: State Building.
• 24:02
  Speaker 10: Hey, I'm going to be so real, if it's.
• 24:06
  Speaker 9: Above four stories, I don't give a shit.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: I don't give a shit.
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: It's like the hubris of man or something.
• 24:17
  Speaker 9: Uh-huh. Why do we got to be up there?
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: Yeah!
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: The people are on your side.
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: All right, next up, we have Ethan giving clues for
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Charles over.
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: On Team Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Here we go, Dwayne.
• 24:31
  Speaker 11: Nice.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: Do we get an extra second also? You do also
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: get an extra second.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: We're doing this one minute and 31 seconds.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: Are you ready? Time starts now.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: The front part of his head's trading. Face-off. Yep, that's it. Leaving, but...
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Leaving Las Vegas? But like a minute. There's only a minute. Oh,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: Gone in 60 Seconds.
• 24:54
  Speaker 10: Pew!
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Pew, pew, pew, but from your wrists, you know? Spider-Man.
• 24:59
  Speaker 6: Well, yeah, but then there's like the other part. Oh,
• 25:02
  Speaker 6: the Spider-Man, the animated one, is the Into the Spider-Verse.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: Yes!
• 25:08
  Speaker 11: Good call!
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Not walking, but, like, you know, faster. You got to
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: go with more arms. Running man. Yeah, first part. But,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: you know, the Lord isn't involved. It's the opposite. Running devil.
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: Running Satan. It's like you got a friend that's hanging
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: out with you alongside your journey as you're going and
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: moving through space. They're, like... Running? What do you do
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: with the bulls in Madrid? You.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: You run away from them. If you have a sandwich
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: and you want pickles on it, how would you order that?
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Just like the word... Sandwich with pickles, please. So yeah,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: put that in the middle of those other two words
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: you said where it was moving and with bad men.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Running with the devil. Yeah!
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: That's cool!
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: Ten seconds.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: The rank that is lower than a lieutenant. A captain
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: with underpants. And a spaghetti, I guess. That's your time.
• 26:12
  Speaker 11: Captain Ravioli?
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably it.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: That was a really tough one, Ethan. Do you want
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: to read what that last one was?
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Sure, yeah. Captain Corelli's Mandolin. Yeah.
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: You familiar with that one, Ivan?
• 26:22
  Speaker 8: Yeah, from what I understand, he actually learned how to
• 26:25
  Speaker 8: play the mandolin for that movie.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 26:28
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: He is a method actor right here. Kind of.
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: More than method. It's different than method.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: It's different than method.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: He did all of his stunts and guns in 60 seconds.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: It's nouveau shamanic.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: That's what it is.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: He started with method.
• 26:43
  Speaker 10: It's method, but I respect it.
• 26:46
  Speaker 9: Don't respect method, but I do respect.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: What Nick Cage does. Yeah, because he's not being a
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: dick to everyone just for the sake. He can stop
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: acting when he wants to. The cameras turn off.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: But he's just, like, real hard. He's pretending real hard.
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: There's just, like, a spiritualism with it.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 27:02
  Speaker 8: I think in Ghost Rider, he, like, sewed, like, all
• 27:05
  Speaker 8: kinds of, like, trinkets and stuff inside of his jacket to, like,
• 27:09
  Speaker 8: get the juice from them.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the juice. The jacket juice.
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: Like the picture.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Like it does for you. Yeah, yeah.
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: Probably more the pillow has juice, right?
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm sorry?
• 27:19
  Speaker 11: Like haunted stuff.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, kinda.
• 27:22
  Speaker 8: Yeah, like haunted trinkets and stuff. Because it made him
• 27:25
  Speaker 8: feel closer to the character of Ghost Rider.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Nouveau shamanic.
• 27:30
  Speaker 9: God, can I just try that for life?
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: You can, that's the beauty of it.
• 27:38
  Speaker 10: Does Nicolas Cage have, I'm so sorry to derail this,
• 27:41
  Speaker 10: is there a fan name for Nicolas Cage?
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: You mean like for the fandom? Like Nicholas?
• 27:47
  Speaker 9: All I can think of is cage fighters.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: That's pretty good.
• 27:52
  Speaker 11: Cage heads.
• 27:53
  Speaker 9: Cage heads.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: The bees.
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: The bees.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: The subreddit is called One True God.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: One True Gods. But then the plural doesn't work.
• 28:05
  Speaker 9: Christians.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, we have two more lists here. This time it
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: will be Audra giving clues for Ivan.
• 28:14
  Speaker 9: I was stalling.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: Can I, may I look at these? Yes, because your
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: time starts now.
• 28:24
  Speaker 9: What happens in?
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: Vegas? Yes.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: Leaving Las Vegas?
• 28:29
  Speaker 11: Yes.
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: Leaving Las Vegas.
• 28:30
  Speaker 10: Yes. Putting your foot at someone's butt real hard.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Kick ass.
• 28:40
  Speaker 10: I made a joke about this as one of the
• 28:42
  Speaker 10: name suggestions, but it's, God.
• 28:45
  Speaker 9: I'm so good at this.
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: Oh, the unbearable weight of massive talent?
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay.
• 28:52
  Speaker 9: This one, I just don't have a great feeling about.
• 28:56
  Speaker 9: But there's a breeze, but it's more.
• 28:59
  Speaker 10: Oh.
• 29:00
  Speaker 9: And then you're speaking.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Heavy breeze.
• 29:04
  Speaker 9: And speaking.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: Heavy breeze, but speaking. Oh.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: It's there, but it's not.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: You got 40 seconds? I'll skip to the next one.
• 29:17
  Speaker 10: Like when you're driving on the road and you go
• 29:19
  Speaker 10: to the side and it's like the strips and it's
• 29:20
  Speaker 10: like da-da-da-da-da-da.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
• 29:24
  Speaker 10: Yeah. What are those?
• 29:25
  Speaker 9: What is the first word.
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: Of what those are called? Speed bump? Bump strips? What
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: are they called?
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: Or.
• 29:34
  Speaker 10: If you have any passing knowledge of professional wrestling.
• 29:38
  Speaker 9: Let's get ready to.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Rumble strips.
• 29:42
  Speaker 9: Okay. So the first word there.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Rumble.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: Rumble fish. Rumble fish.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 29:48
  Speaker 9: Now back to a.
• 29:51
  Speaker 10: Heavy breeze.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: That's your time.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: That was one of them.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: Talking, talking.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: You know it.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: Oh, I feel like I know it.
• 30:00
  Speaker 9: Do you want me to tell you?
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going to be disappointed, but yeah.
• 30:03
  Speaker 9: Wind Talker.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: Yes!
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: It's such a good movie!
• 30:07
  Speaker 9: Okay, it's good. I just, I don't, I don't know why.
• 30:11
  Speaker 9: I just was trepidatious.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: Nick Cage might be playing a Native American. Yes.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes.
• 30:18
  Speaker 9: That's what I thought the movie was.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: But his level of commitment, you know.
• 30:22
  Speaker 8: He really embodies a nouveau chemin. He actually asked a
• 30:26
  Speaker 8: shaman to put a Native American in it.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: Now I'm on board.
• 30:33
  Speaker 9: Okay.
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: But that's still four points.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Fantastic stuff.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: We have one more list, this time Charles giving clues
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: for Ethan.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: Are you ready? You got this. Just think of Dwayne
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: the Rock. Your time starts now.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: Okay, this is bad stuff that you breathe in.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: Asbestos? Poison?
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Lead?
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: It's not a pro, but it's a... Con air? Yeah! Wee, wee, wee, wee, wee, wee! Pig,
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: sad pig, big pig, pig, pig!
• 31:11
  Speaker 11: You know, when the air just gets this way, but
• 31:13
  Speaker 11: you're feeling a little spooky.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: Eerie, humid, mist, fog.
• 31:20
  Speaker 6: You know, when we go from fall into winter.
• 31:25
  Speaker 11: Yeah, and that's the changing of the season.
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: Of the witch.
• 31:30
  Speaker 6: And I'll tell you what, Ethan, you can really do
• 31:32
  Speaker 6: it all. You really are able to do a lot
• 31:35
  Speaker 6: of things.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: This. Ghost riding.
• 31:41
  Speaker 6: I'm going to skip over to the next one. I'll
• 31:44
  Speaker 6: tell you what, your dad really knows how.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: To work a lathe. Woodworking?
• 31:50
  Speaker 11: Carpentry?
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Carpenter?
• 31:53
  Speaker 11: But it's your dad who does it, and you are his?
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Son of the carpenter? Son of a carpenter.
• 31:58
  Speaker 11: Uh, you got to kind of twist it around.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: Carpenter's son. Yeah.
• 32:03
  Speaker 6: Um, and then, uh, yeah, you, let's see, uh, National Treasure.
• 32:15
  Speaker 11: You can do anything in any circumstance.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Super.
• 32:19
  Speaker 11: But it's a longer version of this word.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: That I've never used.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: Amazing.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: The Mr. McGoriams Wonder Emporium. That's your time. You got it, right? Almost.
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: It was almost Mr. McGoriams Wonder Emporium.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: Adaptation.
• 32:31
  Speaker 10: Oh.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of these movies. That's a really
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: good movie.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: Probably my favorite Nick Cage movie.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Is that the one? It's up there. The potted plant
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: that's like on the ground and it's like his face.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so. That's the post-it part.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: There are two of Nick Cage's. That might be why
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: Ivan likes it.
• 32:46
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he plays two different versions, like twin brothers.
• 32:51
  Speaker 11: Oh, if you liked John Malkovich, being John Malkovich.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Would be great. It's such a good movie. Nick Cage
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: isn't in that. Yeah, he doesn't, though. He's got a lane.
• 33:02
  Speaker 8: Adaptation's actually meant as like a pseudo-sequel for that.
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: What is? Yeah, yeah.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Adaptation. It really is? Yeah.
• 33:10
  Speaker 10: Oh, really?
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: It's the same writer.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the same.
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: We'll do the Charlie Kaufman episode of Fandemonium in... Like.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Three years?
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: Five, ten years.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: When he's more relevant than ever.
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: Charles, Ethan, that was... Sorry, Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Thank you. That was amazing.
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: I think you also got four points.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Yay!
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: That is the end of round one.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: Let's use the power of nepotism to calculate the latest scores.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: Nepotism makes numbers go up. Kristen, what are those latest scores?
• 33:42
  Speaker 5: We got the heat-seeking panthers at eight points.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: Woo!
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: And we have Dwayne The Rock Johnson also sitting at
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: eight points, so we're.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Out of time. All right.
• 33:56
  Speaker 11: Oh, yeah.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: The Rock's famous catchphrase. Where he's the Kool-Aid man. That's
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: what you've decided. That's what we've decided.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: Up next is round two after these ads for pachinko machines.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: I'm on my way, Japan. Round two is called Rotten
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: You Say Tomatoes, I Say Tomatoes. In this game, thank you, Troy.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: In this game, our teams will compose original reviews for
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: Nick Cage movies suggested by our wonderful crew here tonight.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: And they will deliver those reviews one word at a
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: time back and forth between teammates. The percentage score of
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: your Rotten Tomatoes, and that's how it's pronounced, review will
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: be decided by a roll of this D100.
• 34:40
  Speaker 11: And.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: The outlet you'll be writing for will be decided by
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: a spin of this wheel.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Not sure it needed the R's.
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: So we all understand? We're good with this?
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: Good with it.
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: Sweet.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: Okay. Thank you, Charles.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: So I think we'll have, yeah, let's have Ethan and
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: Charles go first. After that little piss hog comment. That's
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: how Dwayne the Rock Johnson goes first.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: If it walks like a piss hog, it jogs like
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: a piss hog. And it quacks like a piss hog.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: The most beautiful animal in nature. The piss hog.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: So what is a Nick Cage movie you would like
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: Dwayne the Rock Johnson to review?
• 35:27
  Speaker 9: Valley Girl.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: Valley Girl? It's the first thing I heard. We're going
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: to review Valley Girl. Sounds like a movie. Yeah, sure.
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: And you are giving Valley Girl 19%.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: Dislike.
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: Not a positive review.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: And you are writing that 19% review of Valley Girl for.
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: The New Scientist. Is it a science journal?
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: It's a science journal, yes. Just add a little science
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: slant to it.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: You got it.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: Alright, and I'll cut you off when I feel like it,
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: but otherwise, one word at a time, take away your
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: 19% review of Valley Girl for the new scientist.
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: Science says that Movies should be good. However, Valley Girl
• 36:18
  Speaker 7: is not good. Because science says that movies should be pH.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: Balanced, we at Scientific... Journal believe that Valley Girl has
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: high acidity.
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: Based on our studies, we find that Nicolas Cage is sexy.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: But the Valley Girl was bad.
• 37:04
  Speaker 11: All right, give it up for them.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: I like at one point it wasn't New Scientist, it
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: was Science Journal. That was fantastic. You got in Nicolas Cage.
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: That's good.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: I was going to deduct points for not mentioning Nicolas Cage,
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: but you got Nicolas Cage in there.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well done. Good job saying Cage after I said Nicolas.
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: I thought you said like Sparks or something.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: And then you got pH levels and the movie should
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: be pH balanced.
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: I like the journal.
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: Is Instead of two thumbs up, they're just giving it
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: the pH-based score.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: But yeah, it should be balanced. This was not balanced.
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: This was a very alkaline movie.
• 37:47
  Speaker 7: Oh, yes.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that sounded like a 19% review. I'm going
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: to give you four out of five points for that.
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: Good stuff.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Well, that's what Dwayne the Rock Johnson has to say
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: about movies. But what about the heat-seeking panthers?
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: That was right, right?
• 38:03
  Speaker 6: Nice.
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: Okay, can I get the name of another Nicolas Cage
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: movie for the heat-seeking... Moonstruck.
• 38:12
  Speaker 9: Monkey Business.
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: National Treasure 2. Sorry, was Willy's Wonderland a movie?
• 38:17
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: It doesn't say a single word.
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: Okay, there's less to work with there, but that is
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: a very silly name.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: He's the main character.
• 38:24
  Speaker 11: Whoa.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: Okay, this is just something I'm going to watch when
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: I get home. We've not mentioned Moonstruck yet. Let's do Moonstruck, okay?
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: Let's find out the percentage score of Moonstruck there. Wow,
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: we've got low reviews today. It's 12. It's 12%, even
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: worse than Valley Girl. A 12% review of Moonstruck for.
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: RogerEbert.com. Speaking of two thumbs up.
• 38:56
  Speaker 9: I'm going to be so for real.
• 38:58
  Speaker 10: I did see your screen out the side and I
• 39:00
  Speaker 10: was like, God. That's the one I really don't want. Hey,
• 39:05
  Speaker 10: it's a studio record. We can spin it again if
• 39:06
  Speaker 10: you want.
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: Please.
• 39:09
  Speaker 9: How much do you love me?
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: Well, I didn't think you'd say yes to it. I
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: thought you'd just accept it, so.
• 39:14
  Speaker 9: Damn, no, we're doing it.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, nice. If it's fair, I don't know who that is.
• 39:18
  Speaker 9: It's fine.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: Then we'll figure. Height of your knowledge of what Roger
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: Ebert does.
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll recreate Roger.
• 39:25
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: Matt, just give them an extra second on the clock. Okay, yeah, yeah.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: It's that time.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: It's that time. You got an extra word. A 12%
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: review of Moonstruck for RogerEbert.com.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: Take it away. Roger. Ebert.
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: Hates.
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: This. Movie. Nicholas.
• 39:47
  Speaker 11: Nicholas.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Frickin'. Cage.
• 39:52
  Speaker 6: I'm.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: Going.
• 39:55
  Speaker 10: For. You.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: Watch. Your.
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: Back. I.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: Roger.
• 40:06
  Speaker 11: Ebert.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: Have. To.
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: Lift.
• 40:13
  Speaker 11: Many.
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: Weights.
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: To.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: Challenge.
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: You.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: Nicholas.
• 40:22
  Speaker 10: Freaking.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Cage.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: But.
• 40:27
  Speaker 10: Roger.
• 40:27
  Speaker 11: Ebert.
• 40:28
  Speaker 10: Has.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: Too.
• 40:28
  Speaker 7: Many.
• 40:28
  Speaker 6: Weights.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: And.
• 40:28
  Speaker 10: So.
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: Roger.
• 40:29
  Speaker 11: Ebert.
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: Can't.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: Manage.
• 40:32
  Speaker 8: To.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: Not. Love.
• 40:54
  Speaker 7: No.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: What? Roger.
• 40:57
  Speaker 11: He burns.
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: Does.
• 41:02
  Speaker 11: All right, that's it. That's our review.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: Fantastic.
• 41:08
  Speaker 10: Okay, here. So you can't tell me that wasn't Roger Ebert.
• 41:14
  Speaker 10: And you know it was a good performance because I'm
• 41:16
  Speaker 10: defending it before you.
• 41:20
  Speaker 9: So you definitely know that that was Roger Ebert.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: Hey, look, I think you addressed Roger Ebert plenty. I
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: just think we didn't hear anything about Moonstruck. So, I think, well,
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: I liked how Roger Ebert was like in third person,
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: then first person, then third person. Couldn't decide.
• 41:42
  Speaker 10: He's a man who is struggling, Matt, and it's rude
• 41:46
  Speaker 10: of you to call that out.
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: He has been struck by the moon. He's struggling a
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: lot now because he's dead.
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: He was probably alive at the time that Moonstruck was written.
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: And so I believe that that was, I was convinced
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: that that was for a RogerEbert.com because you said his
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: name so many times. I'm going to give you three
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: out of five points for that.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: I liked how you characterized Roger Ebert as the Hulk, basically.
• 42:11
  Speaker 11: Roger.
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: Roger Ebert.
• 42:13
  Speaker 10: Fun fact, him and Oprah dated back in the 80s.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: Roger Ebert? Damn, Roger.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: He's got game. Yeah, he does.
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: Oh, fantastic. Oh, it's my turn to talk.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: Hit her!
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: Okay, that is the end of the round.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: Let's use lemon juice and hot air to reveal the
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: latest scores. Literally the two elements that make up this podcast.
• 42:37
  Speaker 5: We got the heat-seeking Panthers at 11 points.
• 42:44
  Speaker 9: And we have Dwayne The Rock Johnson.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: What is that? The people's tricep.
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: Round three is called Cage at the Oscars. Now, Ivan,
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: how much of a crime is it that Nicolas Cage
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: has only won one Academy Award?
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: It's a crime, but I understand why.
• 43:13
  Speaker 8: What?
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: Well, what if I told you, Ivan, that tonight he's
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: going to win four Oscar statuettes?
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: I'd like that.
• 43:25
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: Well, in this game, we are going to get suggestions
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: for titles of Nick Cage movies that don't exist. Possibly yet.
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: They may after tonight. In turns, our players will take
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: on the role of Nick Cage. First, we'll see a
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: short clip from that movie in the form of a
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: three-line scene initiated by The Cage and aided by their
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: teammate delivering the second line. Then, after a round of
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: applause for the clip, I will announce the winner of
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: the Academy Award, at which point our Cage will receive
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: the Oscar and deliver a one-minute thank-you speech. Points out
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: of five for remembering to thank everyone, whatever that means
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: to you, for fleshing out the plot and themes of
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: your suggested movie title plus three-line scene, and for any
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: cage impersonation you attempt. That's not a necessity, but know
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: if you attempt it, I will give you a point.
• 44:14
  Speaker 11: Yeah!
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: I've got to get my Academy Awards ready.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: I can see how big the box is, and they
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: seem real.
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: Okay, so first of all, we need the suggestion of
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: a Nick Cage movie that doesn't exist. And I'm going
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: to ask for four of these. Coming again.
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: What was that?
• 44:42
  Speaker 11: The Orthodontist.
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: The Orthodontist.
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: I love it.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: He often takes profession type ones. And I think we're
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: going to have Ethan be our Cage first. Ethan is
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: Nick Cage who starred in The Orthodontist. So first things first,
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: let's see a short clip from The Orthodontist.
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: Let me get in those gums. Whoa!
• 45:09
  Speaker 10: But orthodontist, I can't open my mouth.
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: It's okay. We'll give you the gas and then we'll
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: get on this motorcycle.
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: And the Oscar goes to Nicholas Cage for the orthodontist.
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: Oh, whoa. I'd like to thank the School of Orthodontia.
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: Four out of five of them supported me in this effort.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: I'd like to thank Oprah, who dated Roger Ebert in
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: the 80s, for reviewing this movie so, so good, and
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: for how often he said his own name. I'd love
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: to thank Canine Teeth, specifically, the rest of them, Go
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: fuck yourself. Wisdom teeth, not today. I love to thank
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: everyone but my family. I'm trying to distance myself from
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: them and their name. Huge props to the special effects
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: department for CGI-ing my hands back into the film. I
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: was wearing the wrong kind of gloves and I couldn't stop.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: So my hands, fun fact, are CG high in this movie.
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: And last, Benjamin Franklin, my real life hero. They're playing
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: him off.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: Nick Cage has won an Oscar. And look, it had
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: the thank yous, it had more movie details, and it
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: had the Nick Cage impression. That's a full five out
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: of five points for you.
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: I was worried I didn't understand the game. No, you
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: nailed it.
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: That's exactly what I dreamed of.
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: Oh, fantastic.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: Okay, Nick Cage still has to win three Academy Awards.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: It's a busy night for Nick Cage. Up next is Ivan.
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: Let's find out the movie that Ivan's Nick Cage starred in.
• 47:10
  Speaker 11: National Tragedy.
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: I think we've got to do National Tragedy. I think
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: we've got to do National Tragedy. Okay, so first up,
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: let's see a scene from National Tragedy.
• 47:28
  Speaker 3: Oh, baby, the people are dying. The people are dying.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: Dying en masse.
• 47:35
  Speaker 9: Let them die, darling. This world is ours now.
• 47:40
  Speaker 12: Oh, Sheila, I love that hot, trotting way that you
• 47:43
  Speaker 12: got about you. Oh, yeah!
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: And the Oscar goes to.
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: Nicholas Cage! Woo!
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: All right, your speech begins now.
• 48:04
  Speaker 8: Well, I just want to thank my hero, Elvis, Elvis Presley,
• 48:10
  Speaker 8: the living legend who ain't living anymore. I draw so
• 48:13
  Speaker 8: much inspiration from him, and I was glad that I
• 48:16
  Speaker 8: got two reprises. Ain't nothing but a hound dog in
• 48:19
  Speaker 8: that movie, National Tragedy. Some of you may know, or
• 48:24
  Speaker 8: you may not know, that I went on a quest
• 48:27
  Speaker 8: for the Holy Grail before shooting this movie. And I
• 48:31
  Speaker 8: got to say, I didn't find it, but I did
• 48:32
  Speaker 8: find the inspiration for the national tragedy. So I want
• 48:37
  Speaker 8: to thank the Catholic Church for giving me the upbringing
• 48:43
  Speaker 8: to bring my religion into this world, into this movie.
• 48:47
  Speaker 8: I also want to thank my lovely co-actress, a Bobby Diva.
• 48:53
  Speaker 8: She did a fantastic job smoking that really long cigarette
• 48:59
  Speaker 8: on that thing.
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: I love.
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: And they're playing you off. Fantastic.
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: I love that already we're presented with a different Nick
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: Cage accent. So now I have to decide which one
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: is accurate. I I thought that was fantastic. I did
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: enjoy how in the three-line scene, your core style was
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: also nouveau shamanic. But you expanded on the film, you
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: did the impression, and you thanked lots of people, including
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: people Nick Cage would actually genuinely thank. I've also got
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: to give you five out of five points.
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: Thank you. The Holy Grail thing is real. It felt real.
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: It's real. He really went on a quest for the
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: Holy Grail. Did he succeed? Well, he doesn't talk about
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: it all. He doesn't talk about his religion very much.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: Did he thank the Catholic Church?
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: No, but he was raised Catholic. Oh, okay. And he's
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: the classic Catholic family.
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, we still have two Academy Awards to hand out
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: to Nick Cage.
• 50:13
  Speaker 11: Disinheriting Oklahoma.
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: Disinheriting Oklahoma, Raising Arizona.
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: I love it so much.
• 50:20
  Speaker 3: So that's going to be Charles' movie.
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: Disinheriting Oklahoma is the title of your Cage's movie. Can
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: we see the three-line scene, the little clip from Disinheriting Oklahoma?
• 50:31
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: Bobby, I just can't do it. That's okay. I understand.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: We all get nervous around a beautiful woman. Don't you
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: support me like that. I need you to push me.
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: I need to be better. I'll push it.
• 51:05
  Speaker 11: Fantastic.
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: We were all waiting for Charles to lose his mind.
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: We got it. Okay.
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: And the Academy Award goes to... I've been Meryl Streep
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: for all of these.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: It shows. It's Nicolas Cage!
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: Here's your speech.
• 51:29
  Speaker 8: Oh, gosh.
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: I just have so many.
• 51:34
  Speaker 6: people to thank I really wasn't expecting this tonight first
• 51:39
  Speaker 6: I'd like to thank the state.
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: Of Oklahoma.
• 51:43
  Speaker 6: For without that panhandle we would be nothing as a
• 51:46
  Speaker 6: nation and you know what I took this job you're
• 51:53
  Speaker 6: not because it was the right thing to do but
• 51:57
  Speaker 6: I'm flat broke.
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: I just really need the money. I'm in a lot
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: of debt.
• 52:04
  Speaker 6: But I would really like to thank the people who
• 52:07
  Speaker 6: bring the food to set every day. They've got a
• 52:10
  Speaker 6: lot of leftovers that they just really support me with
• 52:15
  Speaker 6: and support your local food person. I'd also like to
• 52:21
  Speaker 6: thank my biggest fan, Ivan Grossman.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: When he kisses me at night. Sorry, they're playing you off.
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: They're playing you off. Fantastic. Oh, my God.
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: Food person.
• 52:39
  Speaker 11: I love the idea of him.
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: Being so famous that he doesn't know crap.
• 52:45
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: He's that out of touch.
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: He just thinks.
• 52:47
  Speaker 10: A person came to feed him.
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: I took that as accurate to what an A-list Hollywood
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: star would do. And I was dancing around four points
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: because I only heard a little bit about the panhandle.
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: But then you remembered to thank Ivan. And I liked
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: how meta that joke was. So I'm also going to
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: give you five points.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 53:10
  Speaker 3: Which now puts so much pressure on Audrey.
• 53:14
  Speaker 10: I'm just, if I ever get like sad, I'm just
• 53:17
  Speaker 10: going to look at this Oscar statue's butt.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: Maybe I can do it. That's what all the celebrities do.
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: Of course you can do it. I'm a heat-seeking panther.
• 53:26
  Speaker 10: Yeah, heat-seek.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: I'm going right for that vibe. Seek, Maggie. The hole.
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: The hole.
• 53:32
  Speaker 11: The hole.
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: The hole.
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: Okay, we need the title of the movie that Audra's
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: Nick Cage has starred in.
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: A band story.
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: A band story. Like B-A-N-N-E-D or like the music band?
• 53:45
  Speaker 10: Music band.
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: A band story. A band story. Do you like that?
• 53:50
  Speaker 3: A band story. It is Nick Cage.
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: So let's see a quick clip from a band story.
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: I think I just rocked too hard.
• 54:06
  Speaker 10: I don't know if this band can handle me anymore.
• 54:12
  Speaker 8: Look, Jessen, you're the only one that can rock this hard.
• 54:16
  Speaker 8: You and your Dad, grandfather's guitar.
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: You got this.
• 54:22
  Speaker 9: God, you're right, Treville. We're going to rock so hard.
• 54:30
  Speaker 10: My grandfather, he's coming through my guitar. We're going to
• 54:36
  Speaker 10: rock this nation together.
• 54:39
  Speaker 4: Whoa.
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: Powerful stuff I feel bad for the other nominees and
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: the winner goes the winner is.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: It's the cage and your speech starts now.
• 55:00
  Speaker 9: Thank you so much for this, Oscar.
• 55:02
  Speaker 10: I don't know if you knew this, but that film
• 55:05
  Speaker 10: was entirely improvised. There was a couple times where I
• 55:12
  Speaker 10: made a few mistakes.
• 55:13
  Speaker 9: I was too invested. And we just thought that that
• 55:16
  Speaker 9: added to the realism of the film.
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: And we were right.
• 55:21
  Speaker 10: Because I have this tiny Oscar statue with this incredible ass.
• 55:26
  Speaker 10: I would like to thank the sculptors who sculpted this.
• 55:31
  Speaker 10: I'd like to thank my grandfather for letting me murder
• 55:34
  Speaker 10: him so that I could put a.
• 55:37
  Speaker 9: Little piece of him in my pocket.
• 55:40
  Speaker 10: To really know what it felt like to have a
• 55:44
  Speaker 10: dead grandfather who you were rocking for.
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: And you know what?
• 55:49
  Speaker 9: I'd like to thank Trevlyn.
• 55:54
  Speaker 10: I know that's not his name, but I really care
• 55:56
  Speaker 10: about that character.
• 55:58
  Speaker 9: And he meant a lot to me.
• 55:59
  Speaker 3: And they're playing you off.
• 56:00
  Speaker 11: Fantastic experience.
• 56:06
  Speaker 3: Oh my goodness.
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: I think that was my favorite clip of all of
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: the movies so far. I loved that so much. I
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: loved all of the people you thanked. I love that
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: it implied that you did this improvised and method and
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: you killed your grandpa. Yes.
• 56:21
  Speaker 9: How do you know I didn't?
• 56:24
  Speaker 3: And you brought a really good intensity, especially in the
• 56:28
  Speaker 3: scenes of a Nick Cage impression. I'm also giving Ultra
• 56:31
  Speaker 3: five out of five points.
• 56:35
  Speaker 9: My Nick Cage statue has the biggest face.
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: Big face! Face off, face off, face off, face off!
• 56:46
  Speaker 10: It'd be funny if John Travolta's face was underneath.
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: If we'd have had just five more minutes time this evening,
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: it absolutely would have happened.
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: If it was only John Travolta's face.
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: Okay, well, look what's next in the copy. That's the
• 57:01
  Speaker 3: end of round three.
• 57:02
  Speaker 2: Let's all take our faces off so we can truly
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: see the latest scores.
• 57:07
  Speaker 5: We got Heat Seeking Panther sitting at an even 20.
• 57:10
  Speaker 5: And we have Dwayne The Rock Johnson sitting at cool 22.
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: Okay, okay. Still pretty close.
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: It could all change.
• 57:30
  Speaker 3: Audra's on like her 14th hour of working. I love
• 57:32
  Speaker 3: how delirious.
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: Audra!
• 57:33
  Speaker 11: You're an artist.
• 57:39
  Speaker 9: Thank you.
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: I woke up at 4.30.
• 57:40
  Speaker 9: Oh, Lord.
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: Before we get to the quickfire round, though, the crucial
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: quickfire round, let's talk prizes. This episode's star prize is
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: the concept of heightened emotional expression, which is also what
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: I'm asked to display more of on my improv feedback forms.
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: So do share if you win. Do share if you win.
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: But our winning team will also receive two tickets to
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: see National Disaster in IMAX.
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh. 70mm? Yeah, real IMAX?
• 58:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, watch those towers fall.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: Up next.
• 58:16
  Speaker 2: I might cut that. Up next is our crucial quick...
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: Up next is our crucial quickfire round, just in case.
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: I've got to start again now. Up next is our
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: crucial quickfire round, but first we must play one final
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: set of ads. And I've not written a joke here,
• 58:30
  Speaker 2: so everybody cheer!
• 58:30
  Speaker 10: Yeah!
• 58:41
  Speaker 2: Our final quickfire round will test your broader pop culture knowledge,
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: and it's called National Treasure.
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: No, my treasure. And I'll tell you why.
• 58:49
  Speaker 2: In this game, I will give our players clues to
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: famous tax evaders from pop culture history.
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: Those clues will be in the style of their accountant
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: trying to explain what happened to their client's money. As
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: a legal disclaimer, the following names were all charged with
• 59:04
  Speaker 2: tax fraud. Some served jail time. Some were acquitted. Some
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: paid what they were owed the public in full. It's mixed,
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: but there's the legal disclaimer. There is, of course, a
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: classic Gate Leapers twist. You need to say you are
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: sentenced to life without parole like a judge after you
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: say the name of your celebrity. just because then I
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: can clip that up and get you all in trouble
• 59:24
  Speaker 2: on the internet. I won't give you the point if
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: you don't say that. It's quick fire, so you buzz
• 59:31
  Speaker 2: in by yelling out your team name.
• 59:32
  Speaker 3: Let's practice that now.
• 59:34
  Speaker 11: D.C.
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: Panthers. All right.
• 59:37
  Speaker 3: You're going to go full every time?
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: Dwayne the Rock Johnson. All right. Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Panthers versus
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
• 59:47
  Speaker 3: Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
• 59:50
  Speaker 10: Would you allow a buzz in with a rar?
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna, oh yeah! Alright, okay. I like that as
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: a catchphrase. A well-known catchphrase.
• 59:58
  Speaker 3: Love it.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: Rar and oh yeah.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: So, as an example, if I said, sir, if you remember,
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: you spent all that money on Trigger, your guitar, and
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: it's not cheap to record over 70 Outlaw Country albums.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: At least you have all that marijuana for when you're
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: back out on the road again.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: Rar!
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: Yes, Audra.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 10: Willie Nelson, you're sentenced to life without parole.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 6: Nice.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 2: That's exactly how you do it. But that wasn't real,
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: so no point.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 3: I'm so sorry.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: She's been up since four in the morning. Okay, half
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: a point for Audra getting that.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: Just so we don't end in a tie, we all
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: want to go home.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 9: We don't get to go home if there's a tie?
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: Nope. We play all the rounds again.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: Okay, you can interrupt me at any point during the clue.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 3: Are we all ready?
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: Yes, sir.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: I'll start the timer that doesn't exist.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 2: Uh, madam, if you remember, you spent all that money
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: on sequins and tassels, and it's not cheap to go
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: to every World Cup game.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: Your hips might not lie.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah! Yes?
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 11: Shakira, you are sentenced to life in prison.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: Nice, lovely stuff. I'll take it.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: Anything I can clip out of context is fine with me.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: Is it without parole? Without parole.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: Any riff on that is absolutely fine. If I hear silence,
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: no point. Sir, if you remember, you spent all that
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: money on shades and leather costuming, and it's not cheap
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: to take all those karate lessons. You're going to need
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: to do a lot of day walking with that blade
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: to pay off your debts.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 3: Wesley Snipes. You're sentenced to life without parole.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, indeed. It is indeed Wesley Snipes. Sir, if you remember,
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: you spent all that money on old-timey hats and cigars.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: But to you, I guess they were new-timey. And it's
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 2: not cheap to bootleg alcohol into America.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 3: Yes, Ivan.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 11: Oh.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 3: Al Capone. You are sentenced to life without parole.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: Good stuff. I almost said Al Pacino, but that's not it.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: For legal reasons, Al Pacino has paid all of his taxes. Sir,
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 2: if you remember, you spent all that money on live bats,
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: and it's not cheap to go on tour with a familiar.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 3: I think I heard rail first.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: Ozzy Osbourne....
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 8: You're sentenced to life without parole.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: That's correct with both of you. Just the one point, though.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: Madam, if you remember, you spent all that money on
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: homeware while pioneering what it means to- Oh, yeah. I
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: think I heard oh, yeah first. Yep.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: Charles? Martha Stewart, you are sentenced to life without parole.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 8: Nice.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: Good stuff.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: Uh, sir, if you remember, you spent all that money
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: on that very famous car chase, and it's not cheap
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 2: to pay the Kardashian- Oh, yeah!
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 8: Yes, Charles.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 11: OJ Simpson, you're sentenced to life without parole.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: Finally!
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: Uh, sir, if you remember, you spent all that money
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 2: on fake tan and partying, and it's not cheap.
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: To get- Oh, yeah!
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 11: Yes?
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 4: Uh.

• 1:03:15
  Speaker 2: sir if you remember you spent all that money on
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: baseball gear and it's not cheap to appear in an
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: episode of the simpsons which is where i know you
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: from i know you said you have immunity because your
• 1:03:25

• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: Oh, oh yeah. Yes, Charles.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 11: Brad Pitt? You're sentenced to life in prison without parole?
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: It's not Brad Pitt, and again, for legal reasons, Brad
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: Pitt may or may not pay this debt.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: Anyone got this one?
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 11: Fruit.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 3: From that one Simpsons episode.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, I should know that part.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 3: Famous baseball player.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: Yes, I'll drive.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 11: Oh, I know it.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 10: Bobby the Slugger Orange.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 9: Life without pearls.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: So close.
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 3: It was Daryl Strawberry.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Mr. Strawberry.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 2: Madam, if you remember, you spent all that money on
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: amphetamines given to you by evil Hollywood producers, and it's
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: not cheap to travel to Oz. I know you said
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: you wanted to be over the rainbow, but they took
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: that horribly literally.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah?
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 3: Yes, Ethan.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: Judy Garland? Your sense to life without the law? It
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: seems horrible to say, but yeah. It's horrible to say.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 10: I didn't want to think that about Judy Garland.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: I didn't want to think that.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 3: It's not her fault.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 9: I know.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: Sir, if you remember, you gave all of your money
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: away to the poor and those in need, and it's
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 2: not cheap to defy King John in the Middle Ages.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 2: And I know sometimes you're portrayed as a fox, but
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: you still own.
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 12: Yes, Audrey?
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 10: Robin Hood, you are sentenced to life without parole.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: You were picturing the fox, right? I was. I'm more
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: of a Carfax fox guy.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 9: That makes sense.
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: Sirs, if you remember, you spent all of your money
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: on clothes, fragrances, and jewelry, and it's not cheap to
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 2: run a fashion empire out of Milan, darlings. I know
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: you said you filed individually, but I need you to
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: file as a pair, you pair of Ds, and you're
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: also Gs.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: Yes, Audrey.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 10: The Ds, oh, Dolce and Gabbana, you are sentenced to
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 10: life without parole.
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 3: Yes, the fashion moguls, good stuff.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: And quick, last one before the buzzer.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: Sir, if you remember, you spent all that money on
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: acting less, well, wait, no, you didn't, and it's not
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: cheap to get divorced four times.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 3: I know you said it.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: Was your encounter.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 3: Yes, Charles.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: Nick Cage? You're sentenced to life in prison, Earl?
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 6: Yes, it is!
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: And that's the buzzer!
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: Before we get to those final scores, I'd like to
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: thank our players.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 3: You've all been absolutely uncaged.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: Genuinely, thank you so much. This has been a blast.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 3: This was such a fun experiment to carry out.

  Speaker 2: little bit, support them online. It helps more than you know.
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: All right. Should we get to those final scores? I
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: genuinely don't know how.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: This is going.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 11: Oh, yeah.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: Of course. Final scores! Final scores!
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 5: We have the heat-seeking Panthers sitting at 25 and a
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 5: half points. Dwayne The Rock Johnson is sitting at 28 points.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: Fantastic.
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 3: It's a win for Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: Finally.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 6: Recognition Dwayne the Rock Johnson deserves.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: This has been Fandemonium. Thank you so much for listening.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 2: Subscribe to this feed for more geeky game shows. We've
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: got game shows about Keanu Reeves, and he's the only
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 2: other actor we've done, so I can't list anything else.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 2: Please leave us a five-star review if you had a
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: good time and ignore this sentence if you did not.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: Please share this episode with a friend, a Nick Cage fan,
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 2: Nick Cage himself. He would listen, but he'd also hate it.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 2: And I leave you with this iconic Nick Cage quote.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: And Nick Cage quote that if I clipped out of
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 2: context would get me deported.
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 3: Say it with me if you know it.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 2: I am going to steal the Declaration of Independence.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 11: Good night!
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 9: You gotta do Paul Giamatti next.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: We should do a Paul Giamatti one next. He's the
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: natural next prolific actor. It's Keanu Reeves, it's Nicolas Cage,
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 2: and it's Paul Giamatti, the big three. Thank you so
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 2: much for listening to this episode, LeapFrogs. Do let us
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 2: know in the comments over on Patreon, patreon.com forward slash gateleapers,
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 2: what you thought of this hybrid studio live episode. There's
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 2: a good chance that next year we get to record
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 2: a few episodes like this, and I'm curious to know
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 2: what everyone thought of it. I know I had a
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 2: great time. I know the panel had a great time,
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 2: and it sounded like the room had a great time too.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 2: So feedback is always appreciated. Do let us know what
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 2: you thought of this episode. Comment wherever you listen to this.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 2: If it's on Spotify, we'll see it. If it's on Amazon,
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: probably less likely to check that. Thank you so much
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 2: for listening. All that remains for me to do today
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 2: is thank our wonderful executive producers who support us at
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: the highest tier over at patreon.com forward slash gatekeepers. And
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: I guess I've got to join everyone else because they
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 2: all did such a fantastic job, a better job than
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 2: I'm about to do. I've got to thank you in
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 2: the style of Nicolas Cage. Oh, Ash and Adam, we've
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 2: got to... We got to disarm the bomb before it
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 2: goes off and kills everyone. But thank you so much
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: for supporting Fandemonium. Justin Dodberg, get off that plane. Get
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 2: off that plane this instant. But my friend, thank you.
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 2: Thank you for your support. Derek and Taylor, you're the best.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: I'm Nuvo.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 2: I'm shamanic. And I'm doing a little panic. Thanks, Derek
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 2: and Taylor. Aaron Randolph, I'm going to go whisper quiet
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 2: as Nicolas Cage, but only so I can build to
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: a great intensity. Ah, thank you so much for your support.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 2: Kristen Farley, I don't even know if this is a
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 2: Nick Cage accent or if I'm just doing some kind
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 2: of amalgamation of what the other four did, but thank you.
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 2: Your support means a lot to the Cage. Troy Davidson,
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 2: my God! Thank you so much for your support. And
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 2: to the entire cast of Team Up. Johnny, Steph, Ethan,
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 2: and Ben. Well, Ethan especially. Thank you for providing such
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 2: a fantastic Nicolas Cage voice that was better than this one. Ah,
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 2: Corbin Stein. Yeah, maybe it's a little more in the
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 2: teeth like this. A little more manic. Yeah, thank you, Corbin.
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 2: Your voice acting skills always punch me up.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 3: What can I say?
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 2: Thank you for being my biggest fan.
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 2: I'm going to do my calm voice for you. Is
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 2: this what Nicolas Cage sounds like when he's calm?
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 7: Calm?
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 3: Keep keeping that in.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: Matt Smith! My God!
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 2: I sound more like the Doc from Back to the
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 2: Future now. Somebody sat there being like, that's what you
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 2: always sounded like, Matt. Thank you, Matt, so much. From
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 2: one Matt to another. And to Shirley Stout, a very
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 2: Polite Nicolas Cage, thank you for the Oscar. Please surely
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 2: cast me in the next movie you're making. You're the
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 2: best for supporting independent comedy. Okay, I'm going to leave
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 2: that voice on the pile of voices that I can't
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: really do. But thank you so much to all of
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 2: our executive producers. You allow recordings like this to happen.
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 2: And by supporting independent comedy production, you are allowing us
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 2: to move and grow and change in all the wonderful ways.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 2: Your support means the world and you're great people for
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: supporting the arts. So thank you so much. And thank you, LeapFrog,
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 2: who's listening right to the end of this. We'll be
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 2: back in two weeks with a brand new Fandemonium for
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 2: a jam-packed October. I hope you're enjoying the start to
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 2: your fall.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: Cage out.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 3: Not the bees. It sounded like Ian McKellen.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: This has been a Lilypad production.
