Ain't no better sounding that.

I'll tell you what, a cold beer in the morning? Oh, man. Breakfast of champions. Yeah. Delicious. What are we doing? My God, it's Bonanas for Bonanza. He-ha-ha-ho.

Oh, man, this is still the only podcast that I'm aware of where anybody's talking about the television show Bonanza. Can you believe it after all this time? Incredible. Nobody is it. After all the podcasts out there, how many podcasts out there is about murders? 118. Okay. What's weird to me is not that there isn't, I guess it's not right that there's not another Bonanza podcast.

But after we've done it, you'd think there'd at least be some hangers on who've seen like, wow, this is not only a viable podcast. Yeah. It's thriving. It is. Yeah. But I'll tell you what. You mentioned this once before. You ever hear of a show called, I think it's smoke gun or gun smoke?

Oh, gun smoke. I saw an article. I'll get to our guests in a moment. An article about how people are rediscovering it and streaming it like crazy on Netflix. I've seen that too. What the fucking fat about? Why would they choose that show and nobody's watching Bonanza? Because it's on Netflix friends.

They ain't putting, you know, Bananza still only exists on like the third. level back digital channel on your parents' TV. You don't have digital channels all have like three sub-channels. I'll take your word for it. And then they put bananas on like, you know, 13.3 or it's Nick at night, but like Nick at, you know, 2 a.m. or something. Nick at morning. Let me just go ahead and compare it to a truffle. You got to work a little bit to find it.

And that's what makes it all the more valuable. Yeah. Yeah. No. What? Nope. Say it. What?

I'd rather not. I'm just going to say, you also got to be a pig. It helps to be a pig. It always helps to be a pig. All right, folks. This is Bonanas for Bonan's episode 77. I am joined by my dear friend Matt Taylor. How do?

I am Dalton Wilcox, and here is Volfton is Marky, my niece. Hi. Marky. Hi. Did you love this episode? No. Good Lord. Come on.

Oh my God Your taste is terrible If you didn't like this episode A Bonanza This one of all of them You really want to stand this one? I put this one in a time capsule. And so would, hopefully, our guest today, we are joined, ladies and gentlemen, by Susan Jenkins.

And are you, do we call you a actress? Oh, I wish. I wish that you called me an actress. My daughter, my daughter's an actress. Really? Kindred Flood. That's her name is. Kendred Flood.

She is trying to make it in the business. Okay. But I cannot claim that. I wish I had gotten in it. her age. I wish I'd had a mother like me. But no. I'm just here and I decided to, I spend my days while she's, she is auditioning. She's taking classes. How old is Kendred Flood? She's 10.

10-year-old girl. Is that a stage name? No, that's her name. That's her God-given name. Her stage name is Rebecca Sanders. Say that again? No, I'll just kidding. He's goofing around. Oh. Rebecca Sanders. He's making the joke like that that would be a boring name. You know, where is Kendred Flood?

It's a beautiful day. Well, Susan Jenkins is a little bit of a boring name and can I tell you a secret? Sure. Well, so I've been doing something called background work, which is being an extra on sets. I spend my days that way. I've been telling people my name is Suzanne. That's your stage name. That's my stage name.

Your backstage name. Yes. They won't change it on the little, you have to fill out a form at the end of every day to get paid. And I have to do Susan. I have a tip for you. I don't think that's going to get you noticed. You need something. better like have you thought of going by butter?

By butter. Yeah. Butter James. Butter. Oh, just butter. Just flat out. No last name, butter. Oh, butter.

Oh, like share. Butter. Yeah, but people might confuse her with what you put on your bread, don't you think? Yeah. I don't want anyone to spread me. You don't want anyone to spread you? Not accidentally anyway. Or ailie.

Haley? Oh, come on, Martin. Did you say canately? Spread you ailly? I'm surprised she didn't. You got a potty mouth like nobody. This girl, I'll tell you this true. These teenagers, I hear her on the phone to her friends and all it's F this and this

that. Did you hear me on the phone last night? Yeah, I heard you on the phone last night. God damn right I did. 1.30 in the morning. Oh, my goodness. Who were you talking to her 130? I was just talking to this guy.

What guy? I met him online. Well, that's fun. You were up a 1.30 nick at night. It was showing bananas. They were like, you know, you could have been watching bananas. Never in my life when I click. I don't even know how cable works.

It's not cable. It's digital broadcast television. I watch everything on TikTok in 30-second chunks. Unbelievable. I can't believe you were talking to a boy that late. That is so fun. You know, my daughter will not confide in me. I would love to hear what you talked about.

Oh, just like, you know. No, we don't. Sierra from Love Island. What? He watches Love Island? Yeah, we all watch Love Island. What kind of a man watches a show called Love Island? You get with a man to watch the man show

He's going to be a DJ That's what he's going to do for Like a disc jockey On terrestrial radio He'll be a yeah No like a DJ at like At like Hollister Now I thought AI was replacing all of those men

Is that not true? That's one of those jobs AI can have it You can have a day I Are you worried about AI? Yeah I was just gonna say Oh because of the background Yes I've heard that they're

going to be replacing people like me with background. But right now they'll have six fingers and eyes will pop up or eyes shouldn't pop up. You can't have that in a family show. Say that again. One's named butter. There's a butter AI. Well, then why did you suggest that? Sorry, I should have thought about that.

I can't compete with an AI, especially with that many fingers. I have other names. We can think of more. Yeah. What are the things that a background our actors can do to distinguish themselves from an AI? You know what I mean? Well, this is what I do. This is my technique.

Okay. If I have to do a cross, across is where the actors are doing something in the front with talking. And you have to be very quiet and you have to do whisper steps. It has to look like you're walking regularly, but you can't have footsteps. Okay. And you walk behind them or real fast in front of them. And that's a scary one.

You have to go between the camera and the actors. I go, what is my intention? And I say, I'm walking to the target. Oh. I'm going to the wall. Mark and I make sure I see it in front of me and I walk to it. Even if you're doing a period piece, you go to the target? Oh, the audience won't know.

I could say saloon if it were a Western, but they wouldn't know because I, because I'm doing my job. They're not worried about my life. But they will notice if I just zombie I walk across the camera. When I see an extra doing that, I talk to the director. And AI can't do that. And AI can't do that. I have news for you guys.

They have intention? No, they always walk in slow motion. Their intention is just, I'm going. I'm going to kill all of humanity. That's what they're thinking the whole time. Oh, my God. I haven't tried that one. But I bet you I could cross with I'm going to kill all of humanity.

And I'll see. I'm on a show next week. I'll see if that works. What are you on? Well, they're remaking, they're remaking growing paints. Oh, really? Yes. And I'm going to be in a mall scene.

Is Kirk Cameron the father this time? That'd be a hell of a twist. Kurt Cameron is the father. And his daughter, he has. three daughters, but one he disowned because she's a stripper. Oh, okay. One's in like scaring straight camp. Yeah, one's in scared straight camp, exactly.

Yep. She's on a death marks through Utah. One has an eating disorder because he keeps saying you're fat like my sister Carol was. This sounds great. So none of the kids are it. It's just him kind of. Abusing his daughters. Yeah, his wife left or is hidden somewhere in the house.

That's apparent part of the first season premise. Oh, very cool. I'm going to watch that for sure. It sounds like a good family view. Well, look out for me. Because if I'm doing my job, I might not be very noticeable, but you'll see me in the mall. So you watch this episode of Bonanza that we're going to talk about today, season three episode 11, The Day of the Dragon, right?

I did. I did. And did you see some good extra work in there? You must be tuned into it in the way that most of us are not. I really am. I tell you what, in that shot in the bar, the very first shot, my heart. stopped for that man who had to catch the beer that slid down the bar and he fumbled it. I've never seen anything.

You mean that mostly foam drink? That mostly foamy drink. Probably not beer. Butter beer. Probably not real beer. And when he fumbled it, I just thought, oh, that poor man, I bet he did that five times. And he goes, I'm just a lowly extra and I'm ruining every take. This is big that we have her here because this episode includes the scene.

We've talked about many times, the opening shot. That's right. of Native American wrestling with the other fellow over a bag of money. I believe it's a jug of alcohol. A jug of alcohol. That's right. That's right. It's an establishing shot of Virginia City that they're using just about every episode. It's the very first thing you see in this episode is, yeah, as a Native American fellow fighting with somebody. And then a Chineseman comes through with what I assume is a tub full of laundry.

Yeah. Oh. Yeah. Did you notice was that good extra work? Was that, was it classic? You know, they were so good. I didn't even see. see them. That's like a good special effect. You shouldn't know what happened. Exactly. So every day, those three characters are doing that all day long. Is that the idea?

I believe that's correct. It's Groundhog's Day. And then he walks out and steps in a puddle. Oh, my goodness. I'm hoping for the episode that focuses on those two, just starts and goes right in there. Rosencrantz and Gilenstern are dead. You get to see what happens to them all day. That's right. I don't know what he's talking. I'm falling asleep thinking about that, so I guess it's a good idea for the show. Unbelievable.

If you had to tell us what was your favorite part of this episode, do you be able to come up with something probably, right? This one of the worst ones we've ever seen. What are you talking about? First of all, this one's at least culturally sensitive because they cast an actual Asian gal to play an Asian gal. So they did it. I will give them credit for this. Yeah. There's the Chinese man who is the who owns.

her. Yes. General Tsung. He doesn't really have an Asian accent. That's probably the most I'll give to them. See, to me, that's a flaw because the actors clearly can't, isn't up to the task. He's supposed to be from China. Yeah.

Yeah. You'd think he could do Chinese accent? Well, I don't think that they're ever at that point in time been an Asian actor on TV without an Asian accent. Hop Singh is the only one that does the Chinese correct on this show. Yeah. That's true. You're like a big, you determine what's correct. Yeah, if not me, who?

We're the only arbiters of this show left. Well, let's talk a little bit about what was going on in the country. The day this episode aired, which was December the 3rd, 1961. This is the last time we'll ever have to say that Jimmy Dean's Big Bad John was the number one song and the number one country song. This is its last week on the charts. You ever hear the song Big Bad John by Jimmy Dean? Will you sing it for me? Big Bad John.

That's all I can do that. Well, now I've heard it. Big Bad John, don't know. Little John. It's like y'all are singing three different songs. It's been a while since you've heard. Don't forget about Little John. Pardon me.

I think Little John might make an appearance in the sequel song. Jimmy Dean did a sequel song that is not faithful to the mythology of the original song. Why do we not have sequel songs these days? What? I just can't believe we don't have sequel songs these days. Well, we talk about this. Not only the sequel songs, but there's a call an answer song. So someone will write a song and then someone independently of that will do an answer song to that. Like, you know, like, lady you left me. And then a lady will do a song called, I didn't leave you, you cheated on me. That's like how I just learned that what's the Scarlet Johansom movie where she's lost in Tokyo and there's an older

man. Lost in translation. Lost in translation. And then what's the one where Joaquin Phoenix loses his phone and it's a girl? Her head? Her. Those are call and answer. What? Yes. Sophia Coppola wrote the first one about her divorce to the director of Spike Jones? That's right. Spike Jones said

calling back. You're kidding me. I just saw this on an Instagram. And if you look at, they line up the shots and he matches them. Is he trying to say Sophia Coppola is a robot? He's like, I got you in my phone. You can never leave me. Oh. Oh, shit.

I never saw it. I didn't want to see Mara Rooney play me or Rooney Mara, whatever her name is. Either one. You know, I saw that movie, and it was a screener, and then it just cut out right before the end, and I've still never seen the end. You never went back? I never went back. We didn't have any other opportunity to see it. Of her or lost in translation?

Her. Oh. Yeah. You're not missing anything. Really? What part exactly did it cut out? Do you remember? Well, it's been so long ago.

I want to say there's a bunch of people on a picnic blanket or something. Oh, that's not near the end. No, it was near the end then. I got it wrong. I just remember there was like, and the thing I want to say that I've been building up to this whole movie is something like that. That's a good place to end it. Yeah.

More movies should end like that. Same thing when I saw movie seven in the theater, they're just about to open the box. What's in the book? box. Look, it was in the box. And then the alarm went on and the lights went on and there was like a fire alarm and we went out. I think you're being saved from trauma.

I think God, I think God go. Oh, you did go back and go back. Yeah. I'm so sorry because that is a hard thing to see in a box. But this was like when they, you remember that movie Clue and they do three different endings? I don't see movies based on games. You don't ever see a movie based on a game. I haven't seen Jamba or whatever that other one.

Jumongi. Jumma. I get knocked down. What about Jenga? Did you see that? I have not, and I will know. That is one of the saddest movies I've ever seen in my life. I have not seen Battleship.

The best movie ever about a game. Battleship. Most relevant and connected to the game ever. No, they did like three endings of seven, just like the movie Clues. They did three endings? Sure, when they opened the box in mine, it was a Beanie Baby. Oh, well. And that's almost worse.

Those were worth nothing in hindsight. I know. That was his slapping face. A Gwyneth Paltrow Beanie Baby would be adorable, though. Guess who showed up at our home this weekend with a babaloo-looloo. What do you call it? A babaloo-blub. What, blah-blub?

One of them goddamn dolls everybody's talking about. Oh, what are they called? It's called them. I've seen it, but it's not coming to me right now. Are they? I know what it is. She just knows it's fashionable and everybody's got to have one. Do these come in the little boxes and there are surprises when you open them?

Yes. Also, I'm not even falling on trend to that one. And I am actually like too old for that. Oh, oh, really? That's why. How well, what's the sweet spot for the bobble-lou's? It's like two years younger than me. Oh, okay.

Kendraud loves them. I'm sure she does. Loves them. My boyfriend gave me a bobble-loop. Oh, now we're calling him boyfriend, huh? Yeah, we're close. Wow. How far are you all gone?

Yeah. We've gone to second base. Oh, okay. That's my favorite base. Yeah. I don't even know what that is. God, damn. Oh, it's hands under the bra.

Hand stuff. Oh, my favorite basis is when I just get walked. When you get what? Walked. What, like a dog? No, like a dog, you're sick. No, I get four balls and I get walked. What the fuck is going on?

What are you about four balls? Like, you like to play fats or something? What the hell? Are these like extra nipples, like extra balls? No, if we're talking about a baseball metaphor, when you get four balls, you get walked. I bunt four balls. and I get walked, and that's my favorite.

Sounds like you have four balls and you get walked like a dog. You try to get it in there four times. You miss all four times, and your wife says, never mind, let's watch Netflix. That's exactly right. I know that trick. But crazy, she always wants to watch guns on. Oh, fuck that then.

That's my least favorite base. The number one movie was The Comacheros, starring John Wayne. I've done watching it this weekend. It's damn fun. Yes, I did. It was, but now I can't. remember it at all.

Oh, well. But it was a... It was real good. One thing about it, the director of it, who also directed Casablanca was dying while they was making it. And so John Wayne said, well, I'll direct it, but that's okay, don't tell anybody. So he's an uncredited director on a movie.

There's a few of those. Tombstone. Right, Junestone. Some safe poltergeist. Oh. There's another... All by the little girl? No, just people that didn't direct it,

who you thought didn't direct it. Amazing if John Wayne had directed polter guys. There would have been more horses. Oh, a lot more horses. There's not enough in that movie. You know Tom Mankowitz? Yeah. Okay.

He wrote Superman and a couple of James Bond movies. Yep. He was an assistant director on the Comencheros, and his only anecdote from it was that John Wayne told him to take his John F. Kennedy button off his jacket. Oh. That tracks. That tracks. Yeah.

Celebrity birthdays. Get a load of this guy. Born on this date, December 3rd, 1961, is a man named Adal Ramones. He's a Mexican comedian and television host. Here's some things from his Wikipedia page. You won't believe. He was a popular host of a show called Otrolo. In 1998, he was a victim of a kidnapping one month before his wedding.

His kidnappers locked him in a closet, blindfolded with his hands and feet bound. He lost seven kilos. I don't know what a kilo is. Was this a bachelor party? I was going to say, sounds like getting married. Yeah. He was in there seven weeks. It was a month before his wedding.

He was in there seven weeks. The motherfucker didn't want to get married. This sounds like he maybe. He planned it. Yeah. Yeah, I think so. But also two times on the set of his television show during filming, he caught on fire. Hold on.

Wait. Was he kidnapped for ransom because he was worth a lot or why was he kidnapped? I think it must have been for ransom. Did they catch the kidnappers? I don't know. You can't just give us fun facts like that without. I'm afraid we're going. The Wikipedia doesn't have all that much information.

You need to do more research. What's going on? More research I could have done would have been in Spanish. Does it say what snacks they left him in the closet? Because he would have died if there wasn't good stuff in there. It says that he was only given minimal water for seven weeks. What? And lost seven kilos.

That sounds like a goop diet. It does. Yeah. How much is seven kilos? Yeah, I'd like to know. I'll look it up. Seven stones. Seven stones.

Yeah, what the fuck? These weird foreign ways of measuring shit. 27 pounds. Got to get rid. That's your guess of what seven kilos is? Why would you know that? Are they teaching that shit in school now? Yeah, well, I go to a European school.

Oh. We lost 15.432 pounds. You were so close. What did you say? 27. Oh, come. Well, none of us had guesses, so she did win. Oh, fuck.

Let's talk about some of the people that was involved in this episode. I can't wait to tell about it. Sue Ling was played by Lisa Lou. Do you know anything about this lady? No, but she got credited in life. Why would I know anything about it? What? Because, well, yeah, right?

She's in open credits. She is still alive. Lucy Lou. Lisa Lou. Lucy Lou. Lisa Lou. She's 98 years old. Dang.

Just a couple months ago, she became the oldest person ever to get a star in a Hollywood Walk of Fame. Oh. Well, Fina was there. She was in crazy rich Asians. Oh. She was? Yes, she was.

She was the matriarch of one of the family. Whoa, wait, the old lady who's making the dumplings? I guess so. I don't know. I don't want to see a movie about crazy people or rich people or Asian people, so I never seen that. Oh, my goodness. Well, I'm sorry.

I like, sane, poor Americans. Sane poor Americans. I'll take that every time. Fox News. Don't get political, Mark. No, don't you do that. This is inherently political. She said sane.

Yeah. That Kennedy button off you take. That Robert F. Kennedy button, Jr. I stole this from a museum. She was in the last emperor and the Joy Luck Club, this lady. She'd been around and around. And, you know, she sang so beautifully in this episode. She was a star of the Chinese opera as a child, as was her mother.

Isn't it something? What else? Oh, this, I've been wanting to chime in and tell you this a couple times it's come up. In 1977, she had a supporting role in the dystopian science fiction film, Demon Seed. You ever hear of this movie? I've heard of it, but I've never seen it. This is a movie in which a computer

imprisons and forcibly impregnates its creator's wife. A computer. That's revenge. That is good revenge. This is the dark side of weird science. I guess so. It's like Mary getting immaculately

fragmented by a computer. Jesus Christ. I mean, I think that's what we have to look forward to with AI. This is a... Yeah. Because I know we've circled around this topic. And now we're going right forward.

You was talking about the movie Her a little while ago, where Mooney Mera is a computer. No. Mooney Mera is the real girl. Scarlett Johnson. Uh-huh. She's the voice. And she was also in Lost in Tokyo, and you's all talking about that.

Okay. But now, this... Here's from what was in the trailer. These words come out of a man's mouth. He says this more than human, more than a computer. It's a murderously intelligent, sensually self-programmed non-being. I like these words. So now computers are going to start making love, making relations,

having kernel knowledge with our women. Yeah. They called it in 1977. Wow. Anyway, I'm impressed by that. I mean, I'm impressed by it. I'm not surprised. Yeah, you're not surprised.

All right, good. General Mood song was played by Richard Liu, often typecasts as the Japanese enemy pilot spy or interrogator during World War II. He also played the Thai billionaire high fat in the movie. Oh, man with the golden gun. No. Yeah, man with the golden gun. Oh, my gosh.

That's right. Talk about extra nipples. Oh, yeah. That's right. Extra nipples in the golden gun? Well, the man with the golden gun, scaramunga, has a superfluous papilla. Right? Is that what it's called?

Oh, is that the Latin name? Papilloma. It's a movie about a man with a third nipple, and then they put James Bond in it. And but then they called it Golden Gun? Well, so then Bond has to be... Third nipple is taken. He has to pose as the man with the golden gun, so Q gives him a fake third nipple. Oh.

Yeah. Isn't that something? I don't believe you. It's true. I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it my own self. It's true. And so they show him peeling it off at some point. This Hollywood place, I just don't.

know if I can wrap my head around. Where's he got from, by the way? Where'd you move to L.A. from Arkansas? Just out of Little Rock. Are you worried about Kendrick Flood doing these things? You know, I was, but I have such faith in her talent, and she's a smart girl. And her is always, he goes to the acting classes, he goes to the dancing classes. He's very involved. He'd much rather be with her than with me. Both of them. They said no, no, no to me be on set or, you know, when that comes up. She hasn't gotten on set yet, but she's training. She hasn't booked any jobs. No, but, you know, you apparently it takes a lot. You audition a hundred times to book one job.

On your 100th audition, you definitely get a job. That's what we were told by the agency that took us. We're paying them. What are they called? They're pretty good. You're paying them. Was she discovered out like a mall or something like that? No, we contacted them.

They had an Instagram account that was, it seemed like a lot of kids followed it and she followed it. And we moved out here after we paid them a large son. Oh, okay, the agency. You pay them how work. Okay. And you pay for each of these auditions, I'm assuming. We do sometimes have to pay. They call pay to play.

Uh-huh. Yeah. It seems like a legitimate name. So we said yes. I think, to be honest, she needs a new name. Your daughter. You don't think Kindred Flood's going to do it? I don't think it's enough.

I think you need something like, I don't know. Butter. Yoki. Yoki? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. G-N-O-C-H-I. I've seen that on Italian restaurants. It's a kind of a pasta, isn't it? It is, yeah, potato pasta. Nyoki flood. Potato dumpling.

I'll run it by. Honestly, dumpling is good, too. Dumping. Yokey dumpling. Dumpling. Dumplin, though, with no gym. Dumplin. Oh, yeah.

Dumplin flood. Anything with an apostrophe is fun. I'd love to get stuck in a dumpling flood. I'll tell you what. Man-oh-man. Hello, I'm Dumplin' flood. Welcome to Sh. To Roland Yoki.

Well, Richard Lou was in a number of movies. Here's a partial list. Shadow of Chinatown, captured in Chinatown. Mr. Wong in Chinatown, Tchown in Chinatown, and Chinatown Chump. Did he play Torchie Blaine? Chinatown. What did you say? That's what I said.

Yeah, Dumplin Flood and the Chinatown Chump. This Saturday on Channel 13.3. On Nick at Night. I also want to tell you, Dr. Cam Lee in this episode was played by Philip on. We've seen him before. Now, this guy makes a lot of bold claims on his Wikipedia page or somebody does. He says he was the first American citizen born to two Korean parents in the United States. Well.

That's a bold claim. He also says he is widely regarded as the first Korean American film actor in Hollywood. Well. First Korean American film actor to receive a star in a Hollywood Walk of Fame. in king of Chinatown he was one half of the first self-represented on-screen Asian-American romantic couple of sound era Hollywood cinema

that's very specific That's a lot of qualified And the first actor to ever portray a Korean character in an American film That's a lot of hard things to keep track of Yeah that's by design I think You think so? It makes it hard to look into

I know I didn't verify any of it before I told you guys You didn't get to the end of that fellow's kidnapping He could still be in that closet for all we know Well I do know on my Wikipedia The page says first teenager to ever die from watching Bonanza. Oh, that ain't true. That I know is not true. That's the truth.

Die of happiness, die and go to heaven. Oh, Jesus Christ. Now, how did they drag you into watching Bonanza with them? Is this because you have to come with him every week? Well, yeah, my parents, I got in trouble with my parents sent me here to watch the fucking Bonanza. Well, yeah, we're looking after her. I got in trouble.

I was working helping on these guys, these turk. these guys go to Turkey to get her implants. Uh-huh. And then I got fired because they got upset because I was booking their travel all wrong. I sent them to, I sent them to Tunisia instead of Turkey. And they got pissed, which is so dramatic. And so now... Are those two places even close to one another?

Kind of. They're in the general Mediterranean area. I hear Turkey is where a lot of people go to get jobs, face and hair and everything job. Best place to go for sure. I could book you. You could just like construction, anything. Yeah, any kind of job. It's great there.

Why? Why turkey? Why? Why go to Turkey if you want to get something done on your face? It's cheaper. It's just cheaper. And you could stay at a nicer hotel. Obviously, that wasn't true for the guys that I booked.

But I could send you, honestly, you could get some work done and it would help your career. That's what my husband said to. I think you're right. What would you have me do? I would get you a butter face. What is a butter face? I thought we didn't want that. No, for you, you do because you're background actor.

Oh, mm-hmm. So make one of those even less Not good. You want to make her background Look ugly so she can get work. From far away, she looks good. That's what you want for a background actor. I sort of feel like that's why I am right now.

No, you are both Both bad from both up close and bad. Don't put it that way. That's what they tell me to say to people when I was working at the Turkish. It's okay. I get this all the time at home and me used to do it. I like constructive criticism, honestly.

You have to take direction if you're going to be in the business. Yeah. You're what we call at the clinic of Plain Jane. So I would just, I would move you up one step to butter. Okay. See, I feel, again, I feel like that's down a step. But, you know, agree to disagree. It'll be a $4,500 initial appointment.

Oh, that's just for the console? That's for the consult. So one hour consult. on Zoom at 3 a.m. Oh. Because obviously he's on Turkish time. Sure. And then Turkey time.

I think you're on Turkey time, Turkey. He's on turkey time. Gobble, gobble, gobble. If I wanted to book through Tunisia, would that be cheaper? Oh, yeah, for sure. Well, I'll just do that. There you go. Yeah.

Go to Tunisia. All right. Let's talk about Mort Mills who played Gordon, bad guy. Well, multiple bad guys. He is best known as the Suspicious Highway Patrol. who follows Janet Lee and Psycho. Oh, that's what I reckon. He's doing with the long face.

Yeah, got real long face. I love the way he says cartwright. Oh, yeah. He's real good. Real good. I was just struck by it. Now, cart ride. You won't buy your cross right.

Are you sure you're just a background actor? I think you should move up. Oh, stop. I'm serious. Just stop. I think the industry or your husband and daughter are giving you due credit. My goodness. That is so nice of you.

Thank you. Get you some lip injections. People really pay attention. What? I'm just saying. No, I do need those. I have raisin lips and I didn't even smoke. I don't know what happened.

This is what they do. We've also helped Love Island contestants just plump them full. That's another option for you. That is what I need. Pillow face. You can't plump up a raisin to just make a prune. Yeah, that's good. You don't want prune lips?

Prune face. Prune face? Do I need to pull up a picture of prune face? Yeah. I feel like this. Cool teen. is trying to trick me in to get a strange face. She's not that cool.

She seems cool to me. Are you kidding me? She talked till 1.30 in the morning on the phone. La Boo, boo, boo, that's what it's called. I'm an outlaw country Western singer. I got groupies all over me. I know what cool is. Oh, no.

Yeah, you know what cool is. Yeah. No, you guys, I have no true. Not cool. Bottom of the barrel. That's not what my ticket sales say. Yeah, that's right. God damn it.

I sell things out. Of your car Oh Yeah, tickets I'll buy anything out of the back of a car Really? Oh, anything Even my spare tire

Because I need some money Well, sure, you can do so many things With a tire. In Arkansas? Oh my goodness, that's a whole afternoon. That's what they do for fun there? Play with the tire? Yes, we have challenges.

What can you do with this tire? Really? And creativity wins first. Oh, that's real America. I won't serve to. sushi on the inside of one. Oh. Really?

Yes. And I would just roll it over to people. Sounds like a mess. Well, the rice sticks to the inside. So really, you just pluck the one you want off and off you go. I can't believe nobody's ever thought of that before. I know. That's amazing.

Well, Mort Mills, he was a... Mort Mills? Yeah. He played Gordon. And he said, Mort Mills. He was, uh, just so you know, they thought that he died because he was smoking in bed. Better have an ending. It has an ending.

All right. He was, for sure, he was smoking in bed, and there was a fire. But it turns out he had died of a heart of... Freeze! This is as much as you'll ever know. No, oh no. You have to plug your ears now. What's in the box?

How come she's in a phone? And what happened to Mort Mills? That's right. We'll leave it there. Oh, no. I got to know it. How did he die? All right.

All right. He had a heart attack and then dropped his cigarette in his bed caught on fire. Oh. So much better. How did they know that? I know. Drop it and then saw fire went. Exactly.

Exactly. That's a mere matter of seconds. Well, he died of a heart attack is what was established, not did he died from being in a fire. But did he burn up? Sure. This is like Jack Cassidy. I mean, this is like people who are dying of pneumonia. If you ask me, I just don't pass.

Oh, what do you mean? Sorry to get political. Yeah. Oh. You don't. think people die of pneumonia? No, I think it's Jeffrey Epstein. Not if they have AIDS.

I think that was the cause. Oh, I see what you're saying. You think Mort Mills would get a game. It's a really good name for your daughter if you want. Oh, Kendred Epstein. Yeah. That's cute. What year did he die in a fire?

1993. Where was I? I don't know. Light and fires. Oh, no. Are you putting your porno up? I'm not putting up my porno. Oh.

The fella who played Barrett, who was Mort Mills's gambling partner and friend, Can you do you know you want to take a guess which one of these two he is? Doesn't matter. They look the same to me. They do. So the story is that's him on the, uh, over here and the hat. Well, they both have hats on. One of them he's wearing a scarf.

Uh-huh. The other one is a stunt man. And the actor throughout his career was often cast to play the roles that that stunt man was doing because they look so much like each other. Whoa. It went the other way around. that is a good stunt man. Yeah.

Yeah, they love that stunt man so much. They're like, we're hiring him and let's hire that actor to do the lines because he looks like him. That is great to get a leg up in the business because you look like a stuntman. You ought to consider that for either yourself or Kendra. Well, now which way would I go? I find a stunt person who looks like me or I become a stunt person, I think. Oh, I guess either way. You can become a stunt person if we put some.

I'm breakable though. Maybe like BBL or something like that. I have bird bones. Oh, you do? I broke a finger at a hold. in one of those bowl cups that they give you at fancy coffee shops. Well, now you're going to look like an AI.

That's right. It was kind of funny for a while. People thought I was an AI. So you have to ask for a smaller coffee cup? Yes. I said, don't give me that friends nonsense. Oh, yeah. Oh, those things are huge.

Yeah, it was like a button. It was crazy that on friends. They were just drinking out of those. Well, they all broke fingers quite often. I saw it in the blooper reels. What, that they broke their fingers? And they all laughed. Yeah.

Yeah. Do it again. Matthew Perry would break a pinky and Lisa Kudra would do her laugh that just doesn't stop. I just love those friends outtakes. I watch them on Facebook all day long. And Monica was like, I got to clean this up. Well, that's her character. These are bloopers.

Oh, sorry. Now I get it. She don't know. She's never seen. Have you ever seen even one episode of foul ups, bleeps, and practical jokes starring Dick Clark and Ed McMahon? No. Thank God. What are you talking about?

Not even one time. Fowlubs, bloopers, bleeps and practical jokes and boners. Fowlubs, bloops, and deeks and... You know boners is what they used to call a mess-up? Yep. What? I had a book called Boners and then I had the second one called Still More Boners. And speaking of Growing Pains...

There was a character on Growing Pains named Boner. Oh, yeah, Boner. What was in a book called Boners? It was jokes. Oh, okay. Yeah. Still more boners. Still more boners.

Still more boners. Yeah. Hey, you guys want to hear a boner? Yeah. I don't, no, I was just trying out the phrase. I don't have a boner for you. Oh my gosh. Sorry.

I could have you arrested for saying that. What? I got a boner for you. Ah! You know, they say you sound like an owl. What do you mean? Who says that? What?

Who says that? Who says that's a good boner. Do it again? We'll get it right this time. I never had anyone give me that reaction. I thought, oh, well, I messed up this boner. This boner went down. Knock knock.

Who's there? Dwayne. Dwayne. Dwayne to tub. I'm drowning. Boner. There's a boner. Well, speaking of boners, this episode, should we get started to recap this episode?

Here we go. This episode begins in the bucket of blood saloon where Joe is uncharacteristically gambling, playing cards with two fellas a blow into town. And he's, I guess, I can't remember if he's winning or losing. I guess he's winning. Yeah. And then it gets to a point where they say, okay, we don't have any more. money to bet against you, but I got something outside that you might just want to play for.

And Joe says, let's have a look at it. And poor Joe, there's two things that are right in front of them, a horse and a lady. Well, of course, he assumes, as anybody would, that he's going to gamble now for the horse. And he plays cards and he wins. And then it's revealed to him, no, you just want a human being. But a Chinese one. A slave. Yeah, that's right, a slave.

So we learned that she was, she's the property of a Chinese warlord named a General Tsung who Gordon bought off of General Tsung and now has gambled away to Little Joe. And how did that go down when he, when that general was going to marry her in the first place? Why was he selling her? Did they say that? Well, no, he's lying in this first scene. Oh, he stole her. He stole her in reality. I just believe everybody.

He seemed like an honest man to me. I don't agree. This is Mort Mills is Gordon. Bad guy in this episode. But no, you're right. I didn't know he was lying at that point. It came as a surprise. A real plot twist later.

Yeah, real plot twist. Yeah. A real twat twist. That's for you, Marky. That is my least favorite base. Well, it's real funny. It's funny when Joe realizes. I bought a person.

I mean, it's funny. Like, I have a... Yeah, this is one of the best comedies I've ever seen. I will say the comedy moments in this. See? Yeah. How sad he looked. Oh, no.

Oh, no. I have a slave now. He was like this. Oh, I guess I'll take the slave home. Yeah. And it's a little like I dream a genie too. She keeps saying, yes, master, yes, master. He's, I'm going to, well, you, not get off.

I ain't stop calling me master. That's right. It's funny. I loved it. I loved it. And he was shocked because in America, we had never heard of slaves. That's right. Not when this takes place 1861.

Nope. There would have been no context of it. Nope. Nope. So now he comes home with this lady. Oh, no. Well, he and the lady are home. And then the other three cartwrights come in and they meet her first. And when they meet her, there's a sound of a gong that plays when they first meet her.

It happened as two times in this scene. Jesus. Well, if you're going to have, because the audience at that time needed to understand this person's from China. Right. And this is comedy. Yes, comedy. They did it in the John Heath movie, too, and 16 candles. Did they have a gong come up in the background of Johnny's?

Every time Long Duck Dong came into a room, they played a gong. It was that or... Oh, I think they did both. Oh, did they? Yeah. See, that's just responsible filmmaking. It's true. Really racist stuff, yeah.

What did you call it? I said racist stuff. The kids are always right. Always listen the kids on political movements. I just kept to leave out the all. all these white guys in the writer's room, like, but he has, she wants to be his slave. Yeah, that's right.

So he's trying to say like, you're free. I free you. I don't want, and she's just desperate to be a slave. Please let me be your slave. But I understood her reasoning. Oh, you did. Well, I really, really, I had this exact same thing happen in my marriage. You did?

My husband said, you are free. I want a divorce. You need to go. And I said, but where would, and I was talking through a person. too, I said, where would Susan go? Susan wants to be at home with you all. Susan wants to stay with her daughter and do

the dishes and do anything, sir. Anything, please. And then I even begged his extended family, just like she did. It was really... And it worked. It was his mother and father that finally relented and said, well, just let her stay. That's a sweet story. I think

we need to get you a BBL and he'll be on board again. A BBL. Yeah, it's a Brazilian in buttlift, like, obviously, we've had some botched issues lately, though a lot of people's sit down in air has been really stinky. Oh, but... Stinky in what way? Stinky, like it smells.

Wait, you're implanted. How does that work? Is it just letting more, is there more like a canyon when you sit, so the air's flowing? Yeah, well, the stitches didn't, like, go well, so, and obviously, like, it got infected. So when you sit down, there's just, like, some air seeping out in certain spots. didn't go well. And it is going to stink a little bit. But other than that, like, you're going to look really good.

Yeah, a butt infection is going to smell bad. I feel like if we're naming me butter and I have problems with my butt, already I can see the internet just going wild. Well, that's like branding. Like, actually, that would be very good. That's what we want. We want you to blow up. I don't understand these things.

Yeah. It's a butt butter buttist. You know? That'd be the little meme they do. Because I do know. Those would be my. pronouns. But butter, butter.

You know YouTube. That's what you guys are. You have YouTube problems. Are you guys on, what they call it? I think you said it a little bit. Facebook? You guys on Facebook? Oh, I love Facebook, yes.

Jesus. What is this? The Stone Age? If I take a vitamin, I join that Facebook group. For vitamin. You have to be on college to be in Facebook, don't you? On college, yeah, you do. On college.

I'm hooked on college. I'm not. I never. Went to college. Hell no. I performed it some, though. But college forever in the face. All right.

She said, okay, well now she goes, she runs along to get them food. And then Joe explains to his father, what a terrible life she's had up to now. And Ben says, well, her miseries are behind her. And then we have a scene between Ben and Sue Ling, which is identical to a scene we just watched between Joe and Sue Ling, where the man says, you're free to go. And she says, I don't want to be free. I want to remain a slave. We'll get to see that interaction too. And this is just textbook feminism. Because people will always say, you're a feminist. You shouldn't be married. Well, feminism means getting to choose that you want to stay married in a man's house doing their dishes. Yes. Wow. As a slave.

Yes. You think you'll get married to your boyfriend? No, I don't believe in marriage. But we'll probably live on like a commune like a polygamy style Oh that's fun. Yeah, communist commune. And just like swap partners in a polyamorous. Oh my. That I get into. I understand that because I'm a country western outlaw singer.

But this is an outrage. She's just, she's just saying these things to get my goat. Now I'm not taking the bait this time. I love communism and I love socialism. I'm not taking the bait. I'm not taking the bait. I'll take the baby. Did you guys see the new mayor in New York City?

Oh my God. Zama Mahmah. Donnie. Zahma-Hamah-Doney going to take all our monies away. I didn't see the mayor, but I've seen the movie Red Dawn. Yeah. I know what's going to happen if you communists come and try to take over these states of America. We're going to get other teens like Patrick Swayze and Charlie Sheen and Jennifer Gray and Leah Thompson and they're going to fight you Russians.

I don't know who those old people you just mentioned are. I'm not interested. You're going to know. Only one is too late. knew how to be teens. Yeah. It was where all 55-year-old people playing teens.

Pretty much. No, they weren't. Yeah, they were. No, because they were wearing Letterman's jackets. Yeah. That was a golden age of teens. I never see a Letterman's jacket

on a kid these days, man. I know, man. Remember when we watched that movie and there was an earthquake and we stayed in character? But we all got up, but we still talk like us. Yeah, we're like,

what's going on? It's an earthquake. In character. What do you mean? Yeah. Well, anyway, Sorry. It was within our character.

Sue Ling has some great lines in this episode, such as Sue Ling love to peel potatoes. At some point, Ben sees his boys really enjoying her company, and he loves it. He just watches from afar with a big smile on his face. Boy, it seems like she is a breath of fresh air to this household. I love that scene. It's so fun having a slave. It was my fantasy to be that person who brings brothers together like that. I just want to be needed.

That's nice. And helpful. Not be the one peeling Here's how you know that Gordon is a villain He's camping out with his buddy And at some point he says, I'm sick of jerky What kind of an asshole gets sick of jerky? Wow

You know we once had an alligator jerky on this podcast? That's true As a guest, you were eating it We were eating it, but we tried to book the actor Alligator Jerky Yeah, I heard he's busy Disney Channel stuff, yeah He's working like a fiend thing

How was an alligator jerky? Indistinguishable, really, from other jerkeys. Once something's been jerked, it's jerky. Does it taste like fish or does it taste like steak? Those are the two options. Oh, yeah. Are they salt? Are outdated or salty?

It's just all jerkied. So it just tastes like jerky. But I've had salmon jerky and it was sammy. No, this wasn't like that. It's so heavenly seasoned. Heavenly? Heavenly season. I love a heavenly seasoning.

The body of Christ on there? Yeah, it did. It did. Well, in this campfire scene, we learned that Gordon stole the girl from the general, and the general is real mad. General is going to make him make Sue Ling his number one wife. And now, as soon as that information comes out, who should arrive on the scene, but the general having tracked down Gordon and Barrett, and they say,

where's our girl? And then he says with the cartwrights on the Ponderosa, and then the two guys is probably killed. There's no mercy, no quarter given. Yeah, they came off screen, very. Yeah, quietly. That's right. Murdered.

Now we say there's a, Sue Lang is putting up a bird in a bird cage next to some wind chimes. And my man, she's just putting a woman's touch to the Ponderosa. It's wonderful. Everything's going along great. There is another conversation about whether you can be free or not. And Joe, finally, he can't explain to her. In America, you get to do whatever you want. Yeah, but there's laws.

said there's expectations of your father. It's just not computing to Sue Ling. She made some great points. What were the points? Are any of us free? Are any of us free? In a world with laws. Yeah, that's true.

But Joe tries to say, look, it's like that bird in that cage. See, open the cage and let the bird go free. But the bird doesn't want to go free. Yeah, and she knew. She had such a smug smile on her face. I love that for her. Yeah.

This is my moment. This bird won't leave. You think I'm just like this bird? Okay, look. Okay, watch. Open the door. Okay. Bird just sits there.

I brought this bird and I'm my other bird who does fly about it. She says, birds not strong enough to fly. Now, at that point, I says myself, I know this episode is going to end with a shot of that bird flying away. It did not. They forgot about the bird after that. If it had been Spike Jones, it would have ended that way, but you would have never known. No. Joe says to her at some point in this scene, says, you are.

Are you just like a woman? She is a woman, right? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Just like a woman. Yeah. She says, may spirits sing in your serene stomach when she serves food?

Yeah, it was really cool how they wrote the dialogue for her that was always like, my gracious. It was all like a fortune cookie. Yeah. Everything was. Pretty much all the Asian characters speak like fortune cookies, which is, I think, I mean, Fortune cookies come from someplace. That's right. I mean, come on now.

It's true. I always wish I could work at a fortune cookie factory. Really? Just write all day. You would. It would be like a rider's room. Oh, I guess so. You sit at a long table, I imagine.

I wish I could do that, but I just write the lucky number parts. Oh, you just let whatever falls into your head, like when you play a word, what word do I want to use today? Do you guys eat the cookie before you read the fortune? Because that's the only way it's going to come true. Is that right? I'm gluten-free. That's why mine have never come true. Exactly.

I'm fortune-free. I only eat an American restaurant I only eat paper Okay I deserve that What kind of a fortune would you write Susan If you're going to like I'm so I'm fortune Okay all right Oh yay

All right You will go to base two and a half In the next six to eight weeks Wait I think I'm going to do that tonight actually where he's coming over We'll see So base two is hand under the bra, so two and a half. Nipple.

Yeah, no, he's already touched my nipple, so it's actually. Oh, this is too much. Well, are we confirming these or a match is right now? I'll talk about third nipples, but not this is too far. We were in your room, actually. What? You're what? This was when you were out.

You guys were, I don't know, you were doing something weird, like eating at chilies or something. What you were? They were having $2 skeet shoot nights. You were in our bedroom, me and Betty Liu. Yeah, me and me and... What's his name? Do they have one of those round beds? I picture you have in a round bed.

We have a bed shaped like a horseshoe. So you don't get to sleep on the bed. And do you all sleep on either side? You have a gap between. That's right. That's proper like. Sometimes we scoots down and our feet will touch at the bottom of a horse shoe. And they have like a little pool at the bottom like for horseshoe.

to drink out of. Oh, a trough. Called a trough. A little pool at the bottom. What are they teaching you in school if not that? What's his fortune? I think that a hairy-armed barista's going to serve you the wrong coffee.

I know that's right. I'm sure that's right. She just knows how to order a black coffee. They give them like a lot to her and mocha. I know. They want to put something in there. Black goddamn coffee in a dirty cup. I do love a dirty mug.

There's something about a dirty mug out of someone else's cupboard that just makes you feel at home. I love a stain. I was at the mall just yesterday, and they got a robot making coffees for people. No. Yeah, they do. Wow, AI. I know. Was it polite?

Did they have six fingers? No, it was terrifying. It looked like it's right after making my cup of coffee, it's going to impregnate Julie Christy. Julie Christy? Yeah. From the sound of music? Wait, why? No, you're thinking of somebody.

Julie Andrews. Demency. Because I said, if anyone can brag Julie Andrews, it would be AI. Do you think they'll do that? They'll make a new sound of music where she's just like pregnant or something. Absolutely. They're going to remake everything they can. I mean, now they'll have everybody at every age.

She was a nun. She can't be a pregnant nun. Get over yourself. Grow up. Nons get pregnant all the time. I'm surprised you know what sound of music. is. I only know because we were forced to watch it in school.

Oh, yeah. And obviously, we got the teacher canceled for showing it to us because of the Nazis and everything. Oh, my God. It's not espousing Nazi cultures. The Nazis are singing and dancing. The Nazi is hot. I do think that was a little bit suspicious. Wow.

We ruined the, we docks the teacher. She had to move to another country after what we did to her. I tell you what, this is why I stopped substitute teaching these canceled torpedo you. Oh, you were a substitute teacher. I was. Man, you're brave.

Well, I had to, my husband said I had to be out of the house most of the day. So that was the only job I could get with my degree. I see. Okay. And now this, what background work you're doing is, it sounds perfect because it is like all day. Long days. I got something called Golden Hour the other day. What's that?

16 hours. I loved it. Wow. I got to go to craft service so many times. Oh, man. And I finally have learned which one I'm allowed to go to because they yell at you if you go to the wrong table. Uh-huh.

Or if you eat in the wrong order? Yeah. What happens? Have you ever tried to talk to one of the principal actors? Oh, yes. Yeah. Any big names? Well, I talked to a lady named Kira Sedgwick.

Oh. Because I said, I used to love you in the film Singles. And I started reciting her lines to her. Uh-huh. And then just slowly I felt somebody pulling at me and I was being just pushed. They don't even mind just pulling you and touching you. Oh. It was an AD.

Assistant director for those who don't know. Okay. Very good. Mm-hmm. And he just grabbed you and shuffled you away mid-sand-s. Shuffled me away. Didn't say anything, but I got the point because I understand. They make background actors eat out of troughs, don't they?

They do. So the crew stands in line and they get to go to this fancy truck that the chefs are so high above them. I don't know how they do. And then everything that they throw out, then we get to go line up at a trough and we eat the scraps. Like Templeton. Like Templeton, Lorette. That's right. Okay.

It's a smorgas board. Sounds good to me. Man, I'll take it. Well, all right. Now we got, oh, my God. Hold on your horses. I never got my fortune. Oh, what?

I never got my fortune. Oh. All right. Sorry. I didn't know. What's the opposite of giddy up? Whoa. There you go.

Yeah, that was my joke. You were going to go. You were going to go see. Sorry, baby, be in the theater. But five minutes before it ends, the reel's going to cut out. And you will never know what happened. What's, Sorry, baby.

It's an independent A-24 film about sexual assault. If I had to do it again, I wouldn't see it in the theater. I'll say that. I bought you guys tickets to that. You didn't even go. No, hell no. I was too busy watching Comencheros or John Wayne. Yeah, I was shooting skied at Chili's.

Here. It's a streamer. It's a streamer. Okay, good. Someone who wrote it. It's not a real pretty girl. Justin Bandolini. It is definitely not.

them. Oh, okay. That's what I heard about Superman. Watch it on your phone. Okay. Why? Do you hear that? Huh?

Is he just too big in the theater? Too big. Yeah. Well, okay. They go see doctor and she's going to help out with the doctor. This Dr. Cam Lee, he's a Chinese doctor in Virginia City. But based on this episode, you might think that we've seen him in previous episodes and we'll see him in future ones.

But not the case. That's not the case. We didn't even talk about the one Asian man. who comes in right after she arrives. Oh, Hop Singh. Yeah, did we talk about him? Oh, Hop Singh is that he's always on the Ponderosa,

but he's not in very many episodes of the show, but he's always there. He works for them. His name is Hop Singh, and he cooks. So he's another slave? Well, no, I don't get the feeling he's a slave. But she said that she works for the Ponderosa too, but they're not paying her.

Oh, yeah. I think they must have been paying her, right? Because weren't they against her being, or was her payment? stay in there. Yeah, she's staying there for free.

Just like the sleigh. I guess that's just like a sleigh. As soon as I said it, I thought this is down right. She gets to live there. Didn't they? Real workaround they found.

But Hop Singh, he loves Sue Ling. Hoping is, yeah, and he's so impressed by what a great cook Sue Ling is. And Hop Singh is a great cook. We've heard that many times

on this show before. He's great that hopsling. You can't get enough of that character. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But now, they go into Virginia City and meet the doctor. The doctor says, hey, man, you can get a job with me to Sue Ling because she's real good at helping out patients, sick Chinese people. She says, okay, that sounds good. But I got to go back to Pondros.

You go back to Ponderos. Now here comes General Sung and his men. And they come and they want back their su ling. But Ben says it's up to her whether she goes into you or not. And so General Tung, he plays along. He asks her nicely, will you come back with me, And she says, Liam, give me a day to think about it. But then we find out on the very next scene.

He's like, fuck that. I'm not really that nice of a regular guy. I'm going to go there tonight and capture her back. And in that scene, there's a little Joe is hot under the collar when he's dealing with the general. And the general says, the kitten would be king of the jungle if mice were elephants. I love that. Yeah. He looks like a kitten.

I would have said if elephants were mice. But what do I know? Yeah. That's why I was confused up until this point. I feel like he got it wrong. Okay. That's just my opinion. Let me try.

The kitten would be king of the jungle if elephants were mice. Yeah. I think you're right. Okay. He also says death is the land without geography. Beautiful. These beautiful... Death is the land without geography.

I hated geography, so I would love death. I look forward to it sometimes. Well, there's a bungled attempt to try to steal Sue Ling in the nighttime. Joe kills a man or something. Then one of them escapes and all this and all the car rises. And then we get what happens. Oh, Dr. Cam has to come out to treat her because she got cut with a knife, I guess. Barely.

Barely. Like a paper cut. It is surprising that back then working on a ranch, you had to get a doctor out for a cut. Now, I feel like that would have stuff around. And me must have been getting cut on cactiles. all the time. Put a little whiskey on it. Yeah, they couldn't bandage that themselves.

I was like, what? Yeah. A little whiskey, little cotton. Also, why don't they have another doctor? There is another doctor who usually comes out. Well, but a white doctor can't treat a Chinese person. They don't know how. They don't know how.

Different anatomy. So Dr. Camley. Yeah, Dr. Camley comes out to treat Su Ling and again reiterates his offer that she should come work for him. And now she's amenable to it because. Her presence on the Ponderosa has brought all this danger to the car rides, don't you see? And so she tells them what I'm going to do.

And Joe says, well, if you're leaving to save us, you can't leave. Right? He tries that, but then she makes it clear she's going to go. She was real passive aggressive in that moment. Oh, really? Oh, if you wish me to stay, I guess I have to. Even though we had a whole slave dog earlier and you made yourself quite clear. Yeah, it's very confusing, Leah.

You're right. She made him go, I'm saying something that I said the opposite of. Yeah. Right. And he's there going like, well, you can leave if you're leaving for you, but if you're leaving for me, you can't leave. And she said, well, I'm leaving for me. I don't know what happened. Yeah.

And she was like, I am a headblock. I guess I don't understand freedom. and he was like, no, I'm the headblock. That's right. She called herself a headblock. I like that a lot. That was funny. She has to be correct.

I mean, if you can't even get blockhead right, you are a head block. I don't even know what the hell that is. A blockhead? Yeah. Oh, I should call you that moral. I felt like her version made more sense. I feel like I have a head blog all the time. I tell you what.

It makes sense. Well, the next morning, it's time to go. Cam, Dr. Cam, is it the next morning? Who cares? Dr. Cam. And Sue Ling are going to Virginia City to start a new life together as doctor and other person. And Joe is going to ride her out there. So the three of them is going.

And man, the emotional send-off that they give each other in this thing. All the cartwright men are just the most wonderful person we've ever met in our life. I know. It was like Alvin and the Chipmunks finally got a mom and they lost her. Oh. Oh, it was like that. Everybody's looking at each other like, like, it was really nice to have a slave. Yeah.

They're going to miss their slave, and she's going to miss them, too. So, of course, you think, like, we're going to meet this character again down the road. That's what I said. Never yet. Never see her yet. She receives an offer to make the Ponderosa her home at some point. This has been happening to characters lifting right on the show. I don't understand.

How is no one taking up people on a ranch home? Maybe they stink. This is my fantasy. We love you to just, we had this big old ranch. You want to just stay? Yeah. Well, we never talk about also a ranch style home is one floor. And yet the Ponderosa is two floors.

Oh, that's a definition of a ranch style home. Yeah. Well, maybe that's a ranch style. Maybe this is a little ranch. Yes. Maybe they've got two ranch style homes. I've posted a lot of TikToks about this talking to each other about it. Oh, you have.

Oh, I love a TikTok. I'll watch your TikTok. What's it called? Well, I have Marky 6969. That's my main account. And then I have... 69.69 is just regular six. Yeah, you come full circle.

Yeah, you do go full 360. Yeah. It's just, yeah. Just gisting. Six, six and a 99. My God. You think you're changing it up and freaking it out, but you're just stupid. And then I have Dalton Wilcox should be canceled as my other.

What should be? Dalton Wilcox should be canceled as my other. Okay. That's a TikTok? Yeah. I'm going to have the government shut it down. Well, I think they're ahead of you. I think it's being done.

Yeah, what's taking the damn long? I know. Unbelievable. Speaking of Chinese people. Well, now, bad guys ride down on Joe and the doctor as Su Ling, and it's a real con, it's a chase. We've never seen a chase like this before. I love it. It was.

I thought, is this what Burbank used to look like? That is. That's where they fly the planes out of now. It was a hell of a chase. That's where the European Wax Center is. The European Wax Center? Yes. I thought maybe it was where Gunwold popped up later.

I love Gun World. I love the front door of Gun World. Two doors down from a lingerie shop. That's Burbank for you. Yeah. Yeah. So much parking in Burbank. Tales and Scales, the reptile shop.

Oh, I haven't been there. And Pinocchio's Italian deli. I do love that. That's good. Oh, yeah. That place is good. If you decide you're going to be a guy with a big lizard on your shoulder and a gun and a holster, you can take care of that.

on the same block. That's right. And I tell you what, the way America's going. And you can do your eyebrows threaded. I am going to be that guy. Yeah. That's Burbank, beautiful town. Well, all right, it all ends up in the gully.

Their shots fired. The cart rats come to the rescue. Bad guys die. Joe gets shot in the armpit, but it's no, it's nothing. Doctor says it's just scratch. That was surprising, though. You don't see people get shot on sitcoms often. Sitcom.

I thought it was very funny. I laughed the whole time. This is basically two and a half men, modern. As soon as that father said, son number three, I laughed. That was funny. Ben calls Joe number three son. The way the Chinese call it, they number each other. Oh, man.

That was funny that he did that. But yeah, they ended in a little bit of a laugh, and then everything is a happy. The bad guys is all dead or? I'm happy. I'm feeling glad. I got sunshine. Yeah. That's how it ended.

And sadly, after that, there's only 354 episodes of the left. No, but you're missing the part where he's injured and then is like, I guess Sue Lee's going to have to come back and take care of me and become my slave again. Oh, did that happen? Yes. And is that how the episode is? Yes. She's going to come back to the ponderos?

And then everyone goes, and she'll work for free. Really? That's literally the end. And then they zoom in on her face and she winks to camera. Do we get to hear a gong? That's right. Somehow I missed that. She was going to come back to the ponderos and take the words.

They're all like all chummy again because she gets to go take care of them. And then the bird flew away. I can't believe you knew that. I definitely didn't see the bird fly away. I put money on that. I lost a bit. That's great. Well, okay.

So I guess next time we tune in to the banana. She's going to be there as their slave taking orders from hops. She'll be gone. Yeah, she'll be gone. All right. Well, that's an episode of Bonanza. Anything you got anything you want to plug for us, Susan Jenkins? Any upcoming appearances?

Well, yes, I'm sure you heard that the new scrubs is being rebooted. And if you would look real hard, I'm going to be a little blurry walking down a hospital hallway. Oh, I'll look for it. I'll look for butter. Yeah, look for butter. I'll change it by then. I won't be credited. Is Kindred Flood up to anything you want to tell us about?

She hasn't been cast anything yet. Oh, Kendred Flood is in a monologue class. I guess that's coming back now. Oh, okay. Oh, great. She's doing a monologue from Gone with the Wind. She plays the servant. Oh, wow.

She don't know nothing about birth and no babies. That's her. That's what she's doing. Yeah. That's beautiful scene. Her father said, don't worry. They're doing it in a politically correct way. I haven't seen it yet.

I'm excited to go. Wow. It's a showcase. We paid a lot. I'm sure you did. You did. It's going to be worth it. All right.

Anything you want to tell us about there? Mark, before we say goodbye. Nothing. Obviously, I can't work for the Turkish clinic anymore. You've been fired. I've been fired. So I think I'm getting a job working for my friend's dad at a dentist's office. Oh, really?

So if you want your teeth fixed, if you want Inviseline, I can help you. She said you specifically. She sure did. My teeth is absolutely perfect. God damn it. Do they chew? Yes. Thank you.

I'm fine. I've literally had a. A dentist tell me that I don't need to brush my teeth. What? Yeah, because they're so perfect. It might actually hurt them. He said, if I were you, I wouldn't brush these. You know what?

That's what they told Liv Tyler. They said, don't take acting classes because you're so pure. Your teeth are just so pure. You don't need a dentist. That's exactly what it is. Me and Liv Tyler. Well, folks, that's a bananas for bananas. Well, thanks so much for being here.

We'll see you next time. Now get it. Bye now. Brasas Brought to you by Andy Daly with Matt Gordon. Theme song by Matt Gourland, with The Journey, which in this case are Mark McConville, Daniel Mitchie Cuff, and Wade Ryder.
