That is good. Maddie is saying that because the episode you are about to hear, we are just at the very end of our tour our last night in London as we record this little introduction, but this show was recorded a few nights ago in Birmingham. So, we'll be in the air right now, flying home. I'll have to upload this tonight before we jump on the plane. Yeah, so if you're listening to this immediately after it's been released or about up to, I'm going to say nine hours from when it's been released, we are on a plane.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Isn't that exciting? We're in the sky, baby. Yeah. Technology, am I right? But if you are listening to this post and I know it was from when this was released, we're probably at our homes. But there's a chance that if they listen
Starting point is 00:03:34 really far in the future, we will be back on a plane. There's a small chance. We've only spent a very small portion of our lives on planes. They don't lie to them. We are jets at us. Yes. We are all frequent flyers now. They don't lie to them. We are Jetsitters. Yes. Freak, we are all Freak and Flyers now. Yeah.

We ended up doing nine shows all up. Radiculous. And they were all very, very fun. We're going to release some of the episodes on the main feed, like this one that you're going to hear over the next couple of weeks or so. And then some of them will be Patreon bonus episodes. So keep your eyes peeled for those ones. But they were all very fun and everyone was lovely. We met a lot of people after the shows. And yeah, you have a great, great country.
Starting point is 00:04:42 So good. Yeah. Thank you for this country. So much. For having us in this country. Yes. Well contributed, Matt. Now on with the show. Where was the show again?

It is an absolute pleasure. Thank you so much for coming out. We're going to sit down right now and make the most of these red chairs. They're very comfy. They're really good.
Starting point is 00:06:25 For some reason, we have a seating chart. Oh, look at the seating chart. It says, the person in chair 320 will be executed half way through the show. So sorry. Oh, sorry. Sorry. It's going to take a little bit. It's like a real sad episode of Oprah.
Starting point is 00:06:44 Everyone, look how do you cheers. You get, man. Complete that one yourselves. Fuck, alright, great. I slept till midnight today and I'm feeling fresh AF. What does that mean? I'm not sure, but I feel real good. Well, the young people say
Starting point is 00:07:07 Yeah, they were all say fresh Fresh all right great. Have we lost momentum early here? Running out of steam off the top I am all steam plenty more steam don't you worry about saving it for the big Finale okay Plenty more steam, don't you worry? We're just saving it for the big finale. Okay. We just went down to your Christmas festival and it is very nice. The German Christmas market anyone being there? People drinking stards in the streets is bloody mayhem. Wouldn't be allowed to do that in Australia. Yeah, nanny Stote. Yeah With good reason we did not deserve to be trusted.
Starting point is 00:07:45 It's mainly something that Matt did a couple of Christmas as a guy. We come under for the rest of us. I'm on the waters here, so you guys can be resting assured that everything is going to be A-OK. You were very excited about that, I appreciate that. You're okay with that. You're okay with okay. Yeah, great. Oh, putting another T-shirt.

But give me a round of applause, ladies and gentlemen. Have you ever heard the Dugu on Podcast before? It is all for you. Have you ever heard the Dugu on podcast before? Yeah, great. Okay, okay, how's it heard in you're okay with not listening to the podcast You you just put your leg up instead of your hand
Starting point is 00:08:51 Let me try that Yeah, I'm okay with being okay God that really hurt okay now I give us around a pause we've got a couple of people. You've never heard the show before, don't be shy? Just those two. My mom. I can't cry. Okay, great. And one more here. Okay, I'm sorry, I don't have to point to you individually, that was weird. I just don't know what anybody to feel left out. I feel like there's another one over there. Is there another one over there? No, okay, yes. A very sheepish, and I'm pointing at you, I'm sorry. If you could just put your leg up, that'd be great. That's okay.
Starting point is 00:09:28 We're not picking on you. Well, I do a little bit. I'm sorry about that. It was just funny that I was happy to be looking at you as you went, this is awkward. No, thanks, you're honest. You've never heard the show before, which some of you haven't. Basically, it's a podcast where one of us does a report on a topic usually suggested by a listener. The other two people have no idea what it's going to be.
Starting point is 00:09:49 And today, it is Matt's turn to report on a topic that Jess and I have no idea what it is. Do you want to, we're going to start it right now, are we? That caught me by surprise. I mean, we can start at the end of the show of your life. It depends how much research you did today. It just really feels like we talked more shit last night, but you were going to get straight into it here tonight. Sure. All right, great. Well, I cannot, I honestly am glad that you've said that because I am rearing to go, what is my password? Okay. Great. So we start the show or the report with a question.
Starting point is 00:10:25 You said that already? I have not. We did. All right, we did it. And that was it. And here's another one. And this will get us onto the topic. The question is, I'll ask these guys if they don't get it, then I'll throw it over to
Starting point is 00:10:38 the audience. The question is, what has been built as the most dangerous film ever made? Dangerous film. Yes. Do you have any made? Dangerous film. Do you ever do any dancing? No, very... You're trying to do that live? Nine people died doing that.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Nobody puts baby. Oh god! I did not think I had a dirty dancing joke in me and neither did you! So there we go. Dangerous films. Dangerous films. Risky business. You can spray an ankle doing that thing in the socks.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Yeah, nine people died. Tom Cruise was not the first person cast in that role, but he nailed it. I don't know, does anybody have a... I've got a clue, it's also the name of a hit Katy Perry song firework Clicking at me. I'm not a waiter, but yes Kids recreate it home alone that classic Katy Perry hit song
Starting point is 00:11:47 kids recreated. I'm alone that classic Katy Perry hit song. Raw. Raw is correct. Raw. Oh no one's heard of it. I had neither. Do you know the film or do you know. I'm a bit of a, well, you say. What does that mean, like, your stand-up hyperthew and explain the rest of this? All right, so to finish what I started. I'll handle this one, Matt. Right, we did have a Katy Perry end music together. Oh, Phil's together, anyway. Good.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Let's go another to a Katy Perry. That was just a little clue there. Here is the report. Welcome to the show, everybody. Yeah, good. That's got another new Academy Perry. That's just a little clue there. Here is the report. Welcome to the show, everybody. Thanks so much for coming. Did you write that down? I don't know. I don't know how they write it.
Starting point is 00:12:33 I've all got here is be yourself and body, knock them dead, soldier. And that's what I'm going to do. All right. Roy is a film written directed by and starring Noel Marshall, a man who had previously done none of those things. Yes! He had been an executive producer on some successful films, including The Exorcist, which is a big hit.
Starting point is 00:12:59 You know that one? Yeah, and so he was an executive producer. Yes. Cool. Here's the film's overview from Rotten Tomatoes. Wildlife Preservation List, or I've added a syllable in there, anyway. Hank lives harmoniously alongside, oh boy. The self-sulter. All right.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Lives harmoniously alongside a menagerie of untamed animals, including cheaters, elephants, lions and tigers on a preservation in the African plains. When his wife and children arrive for a visit, a long brewing battle for dominance between two lions erupts and threatens their very lives. Is this wife one of the lions? All right, I've become very attached to this lion while you've been away. You will have to fight to the death and I will continue to be married to the winner. Right, okay.
Starting point is 00:13:50 Just the voice of the voice. It feels like there's two different things that have happened. And they just have, they're just, oh wow. Yeah, it's happening to me now too. They just, they haven't been at the same time. You know? Yeah. Yeah, too. They just, they, they happen to be at the same time. You know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Yeah. Yeah. No, could you carry this one? We are not doing well. Hi, everyone. Oh, it's taken from here? K. Perry was born in 1918. I think she's about that old.
Starting point is 00:14:18 I was whipped up a report about K. Perry over the top of my head. Go on. I think her parents are nuns or something. And they're like, you know, they're like, you know, they're like, you know, they're in 1980. I was just whiffing up a report about Katy Perry over the top of my head. I think her parents are nuns or something and she was a gospel singer and then decided to be sexy and that worked. So, password to now, to cut her hair short, people didn't like that for some reason and now tell the Swiss back back on top so happy birthday so happy birthday is a good way to end
Starting point is 00:14:54 you say birthday people applaud it's like oh this is good remember that man. You adding notes? Yeah, just right up there, yeah. 100% Look forward to that. Alright, that better fucking work. I did not have a strong finish to that. Well, they're not at his home at the end. Noel Carson's family in the film is wife, Tippy played his wife.
Starting point is 00:15:22 His stepdaughter Melanie played it. No, you're going past Tippy? You're just going to skip over a name like, Tippy, and I would expect this kind of reaction. We've been doing this for three years, you thought you could drop a name like, Tippy, and I wouldn't react. I look on a certain, I didn't notice it in mean
Starting point is 00:15:42 a Tippy tipi, but that just, this isn't the same Tippy as Tippy Hedren. It is. The Alfred Hitchcock star of any of his films. Yeah, it is. Including the birds. Tippy. Tippy Hedren. Yeah, let me just delete a little paragraph from you. Tippy! It's weird. It's almost like I left out a surname on purpose.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Hoping you'd think it was a different tippy. Oh man, that's great. Are there any tippy's in? That would make my day. That would be... Tippy! In Australia, if you're called tippy, that's sure of a tip rat. And it's not a positive part.
Starting point is 00:16:22 There's an old science player who's known as tippy. Anyway, Tippi, regularly play golf with a Tippi. Yeah? So that's one of the weirdest lies I've ever made. Okay. Top five are open. So Tippi is wife, played his wife. Step daughter Melanie played their daughter. Melanie?
Starting point is 00:16:47 I'm just saying that's a character's name as well. Keep going. That's not the same Melanie. I don't know. Who are the humani-melonis? Melody Griffith. That's not Melody. Yes, it is.
Starting point is 00:17:00 What? 100% that's Melanie Griffith. I can't tell if you're with me, I'm not. Yeah it is. Well... Either... It's funny because I like, I went back and I deleted both of their surnames. I'm like, I'll reveal it as I go through this. I was like,
Starting point is 00:17:25 I was, I was like, the first one I definitely still on your toes there, but the second one I was just clutching for any of the other. Well, then like, Tippy isn't that common, so that's fair. That's fine. Well, Tippy's Melanie's mom.
Starting point is 00:17:37 Cool. Anyway, um, checked it out. So that, that were both already actors, so that made some sense, but they also cast a couple of their songs in the film when they weren't actors, but What do you know? Well, they're names? John and something else over. It's not John milk
Starting point is 00:17:56 I don't think so no To go along with the real family cast in the film real animals played the animal parts Wow, that sounds pretty dangerous. Yeah, yeah, would they were they tight cast or would they yeah bad lines as lines Etc I'll give them a challenge you know, yeah There were no camera tricks some people think they were like there was a lot of um post There were no camera tricks. Some people think there was like there was a lot of post work, but it was all just real for I mean it's hard
Starting point is 00:18:31 Can you believe the things that I saw are real? Whoa Because they were pretty full on What did you see? There's like lines there jumping on them and right on people. Yeah, Melanie Griffiths That's not the same Melanie doesn't work anymore, OK? LAUGHTER Um, the human past and crew were all right. Um, at their jobs or... Pretty good director.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Really sure what I meant by that. I mean, we wouldn't call it the best boy. He's not like an alright boy. They were alright because they weren't. That's the whole point. They weren't alright, anyway. The human cast and crew were not alright. But they were right there with the Lions and it was obviously very full on and led to
Starting point is 00:19:22 many injuries on set and that's where the most dangerous film tag came from When the film was re-released in 2015 it was initially released in 1981 It was re-released in 2015. They used the tagline no animals were harmed in the making of this movie 70 members of the cast and crew were Like, they're so random. Oh yeah, several of us were more, but you animal rights groups can back off, because all the animals are fun and George is dead, but anyway. Let me take you back to the start. No martial man who came up with the idea for the film.
Starting point is 00:20:00 He was born in Chicago on the 18th of April 1931. He developed an interest in animals whilst working at the St. Louis Zoo in his youth and in his 20s he made the move to Hollywood setting up a talent agency with his first wife, Jay Joseph. Tippie Hedren was born Natalie K. Hedren in Minnesota on January the 19th, 1930. Her father gave her the nickname the nickname Tippy, which is Swedish for little girl when she was a baby. Oh, that's cute. That's cute. Yeah, you piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:20:36 That's cute. That's a beautiful thing the father did was dealing with this daughter and here you are tonight. Loving her name. Yeah, well done. Yeah. To be moved to New York City, kicking off a successful career as a fashion model, I wrote a fashion model with it, probably they're all, are there other kinds of models? Hand models.
Starting point is 00:20:59 Car models I guess. Yes. Butt models. Butt models, sure. Is that what you said? Do you say butt model? Yeah. Are you speaking for experience?
Starting point is 00:21:10 Maybe. Maybe. I prefer direct answer to that. Thank you. Butt model. Great. It's any business cards after the show. For all your butt needs. Oh no. But, model. Right. It's any business cards after the show.
Starting point is 00:21:25 For all your butt needs. Oh no. Well, maybe it's your business card. I'll take one. Hey, we're in Birmingham. You also don't have a butt, so that... Yeah, I live for the last three. You can have a stand.
Starting point is 00:21:49 Through your butt. What's yours as mine, sir? I live through your butt. But welcome to those who you've never seen, aren't you? To be moved to New York City, kicking off a successful career as a fashion model I already said. There she met and married a budding Broadway actor Peter Griffiths. Oh Griffiths, I wonder.
Starting point is 00:22:12 Damn it. Together they had a daughter Melanie Griffiths. Oh my God! What a meal! Imagine how much that joy would have given these beautiful people with such poor lives with nothing, nothing in their day to day. They come out here for a sweet reveal and you take that away from a new tip rat. Together they had a daughter Melanie Griff, and so my god I'm rereading nearly every
Starting point is 00:22:42 line of it. But was there another some sort of model? Yes. What kind? But the Marathon last though, after the divorce, Tippy moved to California where she started picking up acting roles and was signed by Noel Marshall's talent agency. The same Noel Marshall as I just spoke of before. Four shadowy.
Starting point is 00:23:07 Now that's what that's post shadowy. Post shadowy? Hedren's role in a television commercial was enough to get the attention of legendary director Alfred Hitchcock. Another sweet reveal. Who signed it to a 70-year deal landing Hren, the lead role in the 1963 smash hit. The bird! Oh, what a reveal!
Starting point is 00:23:29 Wow, none of us knew that! During the filming, apparently Alfred Hitchcock had live birds thrown at her. She was terrified and they attacked her for real. What a legendary director! I'm the Burnt alive! Yes! real. That was what a legendary director. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that.
Starting point is 00:23:48 I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that.
Starting point is 00:23:56 I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that.
Starting point is 00:24:04 I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. I've never heard of that. to bathroom. The success of the film helped make Hedren a star. She also won the Golden Globe Award for Best Bird Cop to the F. They used to be here by more niche. They are the ceremony went for weeks but she deserved that. And for most promising newcomer, as well as the bird in the face, or wolves. Despite the film's success, working with Hitchcock was a nightmare for Hedron. What do I? Well, apart from Copping Birds to the Face,
Starting point is 00:24:58 according to biography.com, Hitchcock was so angered by her rejection of his advances. During the filming that he persistently subjected her to a range of sexual and mental harassment. Oh yeah he is not a good guy. I didn't know anything about him before reading this. What else did he do? He's the bad guy's one of yours.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Oh my God. I feel I tell you this every show, we are outnumbered. Stop picking five-sixth. We're going to get bashed up for the show for bad mouthing, Alfred Scott. Let's get in. Any cockheads in? They were so not that it really matters. I mean her ass was a rassume But he was well in and we're 60s by then and she was quite now. So it's like particularly full-on and gross. Yeah
Starting point is 00:26:00 After filming Manny together which is a little bit like she's got a seven-year contract Yes, which is so weird too back then there was a lot of studio contracts. You know contracts that you just worked for that studio, and it's not like they had roles in mind for you, it's like, you're ours, very weird. So now she's stuck working with him. It's a different time. I guess in a pre-9 I've been well. You will.
Starting point is 00:26:23 We were more naive back then. Contracts went longer and you know, things are different but then it all came tumbling down. You're implying that 9-11 saved Hollywood? That is also a top 5 weird live. Sometimes I start a sentence and don't quite know where it's going to end. That was not an example of that. That was very well thought out. After filming Marnie, the other following film I did, the harassment continued,
Starting point is 00:27:07 but Hedren refused to work with Hitchcock again because of it. This apparently went to Hitchcock setting out to ruin her career. According to biography.com, it says he was successfully able to do this for a while, stop her getting roles, holding it at the contract and bad, mouth and all that stuff. Great. He sounds like he's really mentally very well. Yeah. Very secure. We're talking about a guy who throws a boop. Hey, to be fair, he almost think quick first. So, they're warned.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Bit of fun. They're warned. But she used her newfound stuff, how to land and rolls on TV, which was sort of able to get around the contract. And Hitchcock eventually gave up and in 1966 he sold her contract to Universal Studios. Now I don't know if you know about 1966, but that was a very good year, the Saints and the VFLA, I felt, the saints in the VFLA, if I want their one and only primary ship. They haven't been able to climb that mountain again, but you know, they're still there, they're still batting away.
Starting point is 00:28:16 You are speaking a different language than that. So you've... English? Yes, see. she said C so. Also England brought the trophy home or some shit. Amongst all this, Hedren also married her agent Noel Marshall. The man from before again. Now out from a Hitchcock's contract, Hedren started working films again including in Charlie Chaplin's final film, which was called David, one of you did a report on Charlie Chaplin? Yes, it is.
Starting point is 00:28:50 How could it say? No, what was his last film? Or name any of his films. Can you remember any? No. The Great Clock. War? Dictator. You got to hear her many? No. The great clock. Whoa. What? Dictator.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Great dictators, well I said them. We call them clocks. Oh, okay. Yeah, it was different titles. Yeah, that's right. His final film as director was called Accountants from Hong Kong. And she starred alongside Marlon Brando
Starting point is 00:29:23 and Sophia Lorraine. Yeah, cool. It was a flop. Just follow that. That's huge starboard. Hong Kong and she starred alongside Marlon Brando and Sophia Lorraine. Cool. It was a flop. Just follow that. Well, that's huge starboard. Yeah. And obviously not very good apart from that. So I'm sure she was a flop and her work started drawing up a bit.
Starting point is 00:29:36 But during this period, Hedren and Marshall began working together a bit more, including a few films that were shot in Africa. And whilst there, they saw a pride of Lions who seem to have taken up residents in an abandoned house. This is where the... Oh! That's pretty good. It's kind of like the home alone.
Starting point is 00:29:55 Oh! She's gone! She is gone! Anyway, um... What? What I've losing somewhere along the anyway, that's fine. So they saw these lines take up a resonance in an abandoned house and this is where the idea for them doing a film about a scientist living in a house with big cats came from.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Where do people get their ideas? Over there. people get their ideas. What was it there? Marshall and Hedren decided that while the film was set in Africa, it would be shot in California and that the cast would be their own family. Marshall and Hedren casting themselves alongside the three of their children, John, Jerry, and Melanie. Melanie? Yes.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Yes. Weird without the Griffiths. Rather than bringing in adult animals, it was decided that it would be safer for them to raise the animals from infants themselves. Really playing the long game. Yeah. They did it all in house.
Starting point is 00:30:55 They started collecting animals. There'd be rescues and animals that small zoos couldn't handle anymore and that sort of stuff. So they were picking up cubs of lions and those sort of things. Can you just do that? It's called a bazoo and I've still adopted it. In the 70s apparently you could In California it was quite amazing So again these young carbs big African cats and then tigers and other non-African animals were started
Starting point is 00:31:19 Started to be offered to them and they brought them in as well. I'm like sure. We'll take them all It's all a bit haphazard. Marshall's son, John remembers question it, saying recently, I was about 15 when I said, why do we have tigers? There's no tigers in Africa. I would say, why do we have mountain lions? They're from North America. And everyone would go, it's a stupid question. That's the end of that quote.
Starting point is 00:31:44 It is a bit of a dumb question isn't it just shut up John it's both really shut up John there's always there's a John in every family yeah you've all got one yeah your brother's a John isn't he great great my dad's John your dad's John everybody You dad's John. Everybody needed to know that. Very interesting. It's not at all. Anyway. Everyone say hi to Jessus dad John. Oh, Jessus dad!
Starting point is 00:32:12 He listens, he'd love that. Any bit of attention he can give you. He would love it. He loves it. And if you want to 20 minutes, act Jessus dad John. Strange, strange handle, but that's his. Yeah, he's very proud of me and not my brother He's other account
Starting point is 00:32:28 No, and not Mike's dad What the hell do you guys stop talking as soon as I have a sip I mean, it's your report. We're kind of following you here I mean it's your report, we're kind of following you here. John did see some benefits and this isn't just as bad, this is back to the John for your stories. John, you'll need to say that every time you mention John, from this point out. That's okay. Ideally I could just say it now and that'll count for a...
Starting point is 00:32:57 I'll be confused. John did see some benefits to looking after these exotic animals, so saying, had this tiger that I absolutely loved called Nikki, I would take him down to the local lunch and bar place and girls would go, oh my god, can I play with your tiger? And he'd say, well not right now, but if you give me your phone number, so John, quite, your dad is a slick operator. I don't think I'd... If I saw someone walking down the street with a tiger... I'd call the police.
Starting point is 00:33:33 I'd be like, that person stole an a tiger. You know? I wouldn't be like, oh! That's how I flirt. Very, very successful. You wouldn't say, oh my god. Oh my god. I'm saying that. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:33:52 Can I play with you? I'm telling you how they say, they call the police. As the cats began growing in size and number, an animal control officer started to visit the marshals. And he was like, hey guys, who's? Here you got lions, the neighbors are saying got lions, they got little kids and they're worried they're lions are gonna eat the little kids And then the family would grab all their lines and throw them over the back fence So the dad would go to the door and the doorbell rang and that apparently happened enough that they had a system
Starting point is 00:34:22 They'd all run with their lines and target and throw them over the back fence and they'd doubt it's still for bigot. No, what are you talking about? They'd let them around here, but we're in question. Thanks so much for coming. No, I don't know what you mean. Ah! Ah!
Starting point is 00:34:37 Ah! And then they'd jump over the back fence and just be like, shh! Little tiger. And then they'd go and he'd come back and it happened again and again. Eventually they're like, yeah, we got ones. And then the girls like, I mean, I know. I mean, you take this tiger to brunch every morning.
Starting point is 00:34:57 And you've got big windows at the back of your house. Like, it's see your children throwing tires. No, no, no. No, no, no. No, no, no. So eventually it was like, well, okay, you're going to have to get, I'm going to give me a 24 hours, you've got to get rid of your tigers and lions and kookers and cheaters. 24 hours is not enough. So they very quickly bought a property, so this was in Los Angeles suburb where they were
Starting point is 00:35:29 like a highly popular area and they were, it was illegal to have targets. Ah, it was in a highly populated suburb. Yeah. You know that have a lion. Yeah. Oh god, tell you what, all this government red tape. That's right. Man, you can stay. And the whole time they could just afford to have a big property. And they only bought it when the police said you've got a body problem.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Yeah, pretty much. So they bought a large property in Santa Clarita and took the animals there. According to Entertainment Weekly, principal photography started on October 1, 1976 at Santa Clarita, which is where most of the movie was filmed. By this point, the animal cast numbered 132 lines, Tigers, Leipards, Cougars and Jaguars. They had this in a normal house, like weeks earlier. This is now that, oh not weeks, there's a little while in between, time blew out for a few months in between and I was still collecting more
Starting point is 00:36:29 and then they started breeding. So there's a lot, like so, you watch some of the shots and it's just like, it looks like a river flowing past of animals. It's pretty cool. They also had a 10,000 pound bull elephant named Timbo
Starting point is 00:36:50 Which Marshall and Hedren acquired from an animal park in Canada The shoot was scheduled to last six months but stretched to three years and then again on to Another couple years to five years And are there kids in it? They'll be growing up over four years Yeah, that yeah had to give them haircuts and stuff to make them look younger. Shop off their feet and ankles. But no animals were hard.
Starting point is 00:37:15 That's right. No, no. Also partly, Judah, different shutdowns on set. The budget ended up blooning out to $17 million. This is in the 70s, basically an independent film. They had to sell horses and other things to fund it. How many horses in the 70s? 17 million horses.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Dollarage. It's a fire so... She just made a horse film. Think about it. She has that many horses. As well as financial troubles shooting on the film was often also delayed by injuries to cast and crew. Let me tell you about some of them.
Starting point is 00:37:58 John Marshall has explained, you're fine with lines and targets as long as you don't show any fear. The problem is that the plot required us to show fear. LAUGHTER I may not think of that. Yeah, but can't you just explain to the line I'm acting? So they'd throw up with these lines and targets and taught them to respect them.
Starting point is 00:38:27 They were the alphas of the pride, but then they started to act like they were baiters or whatever, baited boys. And so I really confused the animals and I made them start to behave a bit differently. It said that there were more than 70 attacks on Carson Crew. Some of these incidents include during shooting John Marshall, the son, was walking with a lion when he tripped, landing face down in high grass.
Starting point is 00:38:54 The lion walking with him jumped on him and closed its mouth over John's head. That is true respect of an owl lover. In the manful sound, you quickly put your jaws around its head to save him. Yeah, it's thought it was doing mouth to mouth. How? They're mouth to mouth. Half a dozen crew members were needed to pull the line off. And once he'd relax, he'd be getting to let go of the boy.
Starting point is 00:39:35 I mean, six people. It's quite impressive, isn't it? Oh, we're going to need someone on the back. We need another set of hands. That's what they are, the King of the Jungle. So when his head came out, John looked up to see his blood on the lion's teeth. Did he apologize? No apology, and Marshall requires 56 stitches in his head 56
Starting point is 00:40:11 You're used to get one less or four more Just got this weird thing about round numbers and she won't stop banging on about it And I can't fully explain it either But come on I I can't fully explain it either, but come on. I don't know what I... Just popping four more! I'm not necessarily stitches. No, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:40:30 I mean, they're not going to hurt. I think they will hurt. Have you ever had stitches? No. Would it be... Would it be work if I just rounded everything up before I said it? No, I'll know you're lying. I'm a very good actor.
Starting point is 00:40:43 Okay, if you could do that. I'll read that last line again. Marshall required 60 stitches. Seems about right. Alright, okay. I can do that. Melanie Griffiths' quick mid production telling her, Mom, I don't want to come out of this with half a face. She had a brilliant film career and she didn't. She had a feeling that the film industry required her to have a face. So about the face. Right. She wants to quit while she's ahead.
Starting point is 00:41:15 I've still got three quarters of the face. Stop now. She did it after a couple of lines brawled in front of her. It's like, oh, I'm out. Oh, nice. A replacement actor was found.led in front of us, it's like, oh, man. Oh, nice. A replacement actor was found. It was one of her friends. And they shot a bunch of stuff with her,
Starting point is 00:41:30 but then Griffiths decided she wanted to come back a while later. And they'd reshot those scenes. But some scenes in the film are still seen with the other actor in their place in the daughter. So if you're a keen eye, you'll be like, ah, she changed briefly. After she returned, her fear kind of came true with Griffith being mulled by a lioness and she had to get plastic surgery and
Starting point is 00:42:02 20 odd stitches How many? plastic surgery and 20 odd stitches 23 It's Michael Jordan's number mate. Yeah shame warms number. Oh, yeah, that's Dean Rises number. Yeah, these are getting better with each one Ryan Rises number. Yeah these are getting better with H1. Yeah. Head for it. Head for it. Who's the Aston Villa number 23?
Starting point is 00:42:30 Does anyone know when comes to these shows and gives shit about sport? Not Villa. Not Villa. You're a Birmingham city man. Who's the number 23? I mean you could literally say any name. What's your name? Rob! Rob! Rob 23, kick the bunch of girls and he's got a cool beard.
Starting point is 00:42:56 Hedren also had a leg broken, Hedren the monk, tippy, had a leg broken when she was bucked off the back of the elephant before being crushed beneath it. Don't get on the elephant. And don't get under the elephant. That's very important. That's good for us. Don't get under an elephant. This next bit makes, anyway, they had a safe word on the production.
Starting point is 00:43:26 The element definitely was painted. Oh no! BANGS! Time for a leg off you then! How's it going to get for pineapple? Oh, yeah. BANG is one syllable. BANGS! Yeah, it's good call.

So it'd be weird for you to say in a take the director's name. Sure. Okay.
Starting point is 00:45:12 So it's basically them saying, I want to, I want out of this scene. Just get two full on. No! Then, then, no, would call Cup. And they'd rescue the actor. That's the, that was the... But he had to say cut. Yes. That was a really good take. It's not implied.
Starting point is 00:45:30 So there's lots of shots that just end with someone yelling, no! That's not a different scene. That's weird. Um... Who's Noel? Who's Noel? They never mention a Noel.
Starting point is 00:45:43 That is at least what null said would happen. Oh! During one scene, his stepdaughter Melanie Griffith was being pinned down by a line and the line was ripping her hair off. She starts yelling, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, and no said keep bro. This is good stuff. He didn't cut. Let's just see where this goes. He didn't cut it and that scene ended up making a film. You can hear her saying no. LOL
Starting point is 00:46:35 $17 million blockbuster this is perhaps comically no marshal was regularly injured With headron later saying that a wing in the local hospital that should have been named after me was there that often. Can't get back to shooting though, he didn't always recover fully before he went back in and that led to complications including needing to be hospitalised for gangrene. Oh no! It's a very... no! No! No! What an... that's an old school one.
Starting point is 00:47:02 Then the gigante... gangrene anymore. I don't. I've left that in the past. Yeah. Good for you. Thank you. Made a cool little while back. No more for me, thank you.
Starting point is 00:47:14 Yeah. You know what? I think I've had enough gangrene. Director of photography on the film could be anything, but I want to say, young debaunt. film could be anything but I want to say Yonder Bond. Is that ring any bells he directed big films later? Yeah it sounds like Yonder Bond. Yonder Bond.
Starting point is 00:47:34 He went on to direct... That's our saithler. Yonder Bond. Sounds similar to having a good time. He went on to direct films such as Speed and Speed 2 cruise control. Speed, what about my all-time favorite films? Speed is so great. Speed 2, what about the least all-time favorite films? He also did Twister and a couple of, say, he had a pretty successful...
Starting point is 00:48:02 Oh, Yonder Bond! Never heard that. What about Jan DeBond? And a couple of say he had a pretty successful oh Yonder bonds What about what about Jan debond? Yes Yeah, it's more fun. Yonder ball. Yonder ball. He had his scalp ripped off One of the lines ripped it off his head No, we all knew where a skull plunge. What's it doing there?
Starting point is 00:48:31 That's what the line said. It's fine. He needed 120 stitches even. Really? 120, very good. There's a photo of him, like the hair at the front of his head and just scar and stitching all around it. That's gross.
Starting point is 00:48:52 They use it for a poster. Are you still not even in the film? Yeah. Afterwards, John Marshall remembers going to the office on set and said, oh, all right, I think we need to get a new director of photography, obviously, figuring that he would not return after having his scalp ripped off. But amazingly, he came back and finished the film.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Why? A couple of stitches. I'll be back in. Why? I'm passionate about it. I don't know. You'd feel passionate about it. Some of them, the people who love the film loved the way it was shot.
Starting point is 00:49:27 Like, there's no surprise that he went on to. It's got that Yarn DeBond feel. Yes. That classic DeBond touch. That touch that we loved in speed one, you'd hate it in speed two. So yeah, the photography was great. The acting was, they just sort of, it was believable that they were terrified,
Starting point is 00:49:47 but the lines they were saying, it really watching it is like, what is going on? It was, it's a weird, mishmash of a film. Great. But it is full on, like, there are times where Noel is standing,
Starting point is 00:50:01 he's like standing up to lines and they're going full, pouncing on him, dragging him to the ground. He's got blood coming out. It's not real. They've just anyway you guys should check it out But it is also like a hard slow watch as well. It's weird how much and how little is going on all the same time Classic young to bomb. Yeah, but I mean he Yaz is cast as the lead actor, a guy who was a talent agent. Him. Not an actor. He knows talent when he's...
Starting point is 00:50:36 Yeah. And he sees it every morning in the mirror. Hedren later wrote a book about the making of the film saying that she hoped the film would show the possibilities of human and big cat relationships. For the impossibilities? Kind of missed the mark a little bit. Injuries weren't even the end of the film's troubles. The house had to be rebuilt during the shoot as it was destroyed by a flood. as it was destroyed by a flood. They were also fires, and the film kept going over budget ending up at $17 million, but they often had to halt so Noel could go source some more cash.
Starting point is 00:51:12 Go sell another horse or something. Put everything on red. He kept winning. The family put everything into the film, and even Kosthedron and Marshall, their marriage eventually, with the couple divorcing a year after the film's release in 1982. When a journalist said it must have been a stressful time, their son John said stressful is common. Oh sorry, great.
Starting point is 00:51:36 This is John Marshall. They're son John. They're son John. Right. Not your grandparents son John. Great. John said I mean like can we give it like a five like give him a five minute and then I'll rip if I need a fold back in I will I'm so sorry I can't allow that John Marshall the son of Noel said, which Noel?
Starting point is 00:52:07 The safe word Noel. He said, oh no, no. Said stressful is can't. We had floods. We had fires. Every one of us wound up in the hospital. There were times when we would get together as a family and we would go, I think we should give this up. But we never gave it up. I reckon they would have been at night the conversation every night for five years. He said, it has to do with dealing with lines and targets. You can't show fear. If you show fear, you're dead. You have to be stronger than them. You have to be stronger than anything in life.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Alright, John. Basically, the lines like, if you don't finish this film, I will not wiew. They're at the hands of the pause of the lines now. That's cute. After 11 years, the film was finally completed and released. And it was a hit in countries like Japan and Germany. 11 years. Yeah, 11 years.
Starting point is 00:53:01 It was about five years for a shoot and then a similar amount of time in post Still trying to get funding and just getting it all done Apparently they would get they get an investor at come in and give them a million dollars and they just throw that into their debt Like thank you 11 years though like we were we went back to our first Instagram post the other day And mine was four years ago and I hated it Imagine looking back at something you started 11 years ago and being like, well time put that out into the world. This piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:53:32 Wow. And then by that time, like, technology would have come a lot further. And they would have been like, probably could have used fake lines. Shit. I mean, for that much effort and time, you'd want it to be the greatest film ever made. Yeah, confirm, is it the greatest film ever made? See, yes. No one here had heard of it.
Starting point is 00:53:53 I know, I'm ending that. No one... Oh, sorry, I'd forgotten the alternative title is Godfather 2. Oh! Yeah, in Japan and Germany it was called Raw. Godfather 2, back in the hammock They they had Because of all the deaths they had they hit legal troubles in America and struggled to find a way to release it there
Starting point is 00:54:18 After all that after 11 years. They won't even have a little release in their own country But wouldn't their credit as one of them to release it so they could at least make some of the money be here? Yeah, it's a bit confusing, so probably not quite right, but anyway. Noel kept holding out hope and he kept trying to make it happen. Right up until he died, when he died in 2010 of cancer, but he never saw his dream of it hitting the cinemas in America. But remember, this guy did let his stepdaughter be
Starting point is 00:54:46 more looked by our line. A deal was finally struck between olive films who held the rights and the Alamo Drafthouse to a chain of cinemas in America. And in 2015, the movie finally screened in America, debuting at the South West Southwest Festival, and also having a limited release. The Drafthouse boss Tim Leigh set at the South by Southwest Festival and also having a limited release. The Draftouse Boss Tim Leag set of the South by Southwest West screening, there were
Starting point is 00:55:09 gasps, there was horror, there was laughter, everyone was on the edge of their seats for the entire film. It's this great little undiscovered treasure that we're hoping to find a whole new audience for, which they didn't really do. It got a lot of press, people were like, I mean, it's an amazing story, but not heaps of people saw it. It's become a bit of a cult thing but really not that many people still have seen it and it's, I think their reckon it's made about 2 million of it's 17 million. It's quickly do the math. That was not a good result. Carry the one.
Starting point is 00:55:47 Of the cast and crew, John Marshall seems to be the only one who's really open to talking about the films to these days. Tippy and Melanie sort of want to distance themselves from it. It really sounds like John likes bitching about it. John? Oh, okay. I like that. I like bitch about this one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:05 That's classic John Perkins. He does sort of have a bit of a love-hate relationship with it though, John. The John son of Null. Saying, every time I watch Raw, I have nightmares for two or three days. And I watch it every two or three days. It's gonna keep rolling.
Starting point is 00:56:27 Ego, it's like, fuck, who thought that was smart? But we're part of history. No one is ever gonna make a movie like this again. It's just so fun because I'm alive, and I shouldn't be. That is fun. It's rated as a cult classic and it's got a pretty positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes Split Ombaura or whatever it's called, it's 70%. Which is interesting.
Starting point is 00:56:56 Here's a couple of the positive reviews. Tom Meak from Cambridge Day said, I honestly can't say raw is a good film or even a bad one, because it's both. But I can't say there is never a down moment, there is always something to draw you in. And then Simon Abrams from RogerEbert.com said, If you want to see cats chasing people in packs, falling over themselves to descend stairwells,
Starting point is 00:57:21 and jump up trees to swipe a disposable human protagonist, you'll probably enjoy raw. I feel like a lot of spoilers in that one. So that's kind of, if the movie, but just a little bit about what Tippie's been up to, I really quite like Tippie. This from her biography.com article says that Tippie has continued to act as well as dedicating much of her life to animal activism, especially
Starting point is 00:57:45 with big cats. She's assisted in their rescue and protection and has helped purchase land north of Los Angeles to establish the Shambala Preserve as a sanctuary. Shambala has sheltered hundreds of rescued animals and Hedrin has received numerous awards for her efforts from organizations such as the ASBCA and Wild Haven. Through all this she's also kept up her acting career appearing in shows such as Mertis, Chicago, Hope, CSI and Cougatown. But her main message is...
Starting point is 00:58:13 I don't even leave a gap there for anyone. But her main passion remains animal welfare. Tipping out distances herself from the film believing that it's not a great message and that they probably shouldn't be pets. Oh, she's done it for 180. So at the start she's like, it'd be great to show that lions and humans should hang out.
Starting point is 00:58:39 And in the end, she's like, nah, not, okay. That was a bad idea. We all knew that. And it took her like 30 years to work out. LAUGHTER So yeah, the $2 million out of the $7 million budget is obviously not a great result. And some say the production was cut down by the exorcist curse,
Starting point is 00:58:58 which is a curse that is said to have hit those involved with the hit movie, The Exorcist. And he was, Noel was the executive producer. But obviously that is a topic for another day, so happy birthday. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Starting point is 00:59:12 Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Starting point is 00:59:20 Thank you so much. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Thank you so much. Well, I've never wanted to watch a movie and not wanted to watch the movie so much. Yeah, to be honest, don't tell the audience, but I did not get through it. It was cool. It was amazing those scenes with just lines and targets.
Starting point is 00:59:41 It just looked like a river of cats. If you can imagine that. Oh, usually when you want a horse, what you do is you take a bunch of cats together. Go ahead and see if this is referencing. Thank you, thank you. People complain a couple of nights ago when I didn't get one in, so.
Starting point is 01:00:01 Most of that show has been going, all right, back catalog, Simpson, Simpson, Simpson. So thank you. Yeah, you got there, well done. We did it. Well, that most of that show has been going alright, back catalogue, Simpson, Simpson, Simpson, Simpson. So, thank you. Yeah, you got there. Well done. We did it. Well done to both of you. You've both accomplished a lot. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, good for you. Any question? How would have Sydney Shindler done this film? Oh good. I reckon he would have added a chimpanzee and he would have named it something like Big bowls and out of space That's a that's just for you and me obviously No, not many Sean Beck heads in
Starting point is 01:00:35 Chinese fan club hey, can you can you No, because she's Sean Beck into not other ideas You don't even hear in a lot of shows. I want them to see what your face looks like. Can you say Raw's not a great title. Let's rename it. What's renaming it? Fig balls in space. No, can Sydney say that? Oh, sorry, Sydney. Are you on Sydney to say that? Yeah, I sure am.
Starting point is 01:01:12 Fish posh, but see you. Get ready. And sorry. And he'll explain later. I'm Sydney! I'm Sydney Sharker! What the hell is that? What's going on? This show is live horror, but I think we should call it Big Balls, Big Balls in Space. Yeah, this is pretty much the first movie. You know what I'm really like? I like tightest bit of the man I've ever known.

Starting point is 01:03:48 So thank you so much for coming out. We'll be hanging out after the show, we're going to duck backstage, drop some stuff down, and then we're going to come out here. And if anyone wants to stick around and say hello, get a photo, we've got some t-shirts for sale, there are 15 pounds. 15 pounds for t-shirts. I mean, he literally got there.

But, generally, thank you so much for coming out and we do hope to meet some of you now. But until next week, I think that's it for us. And until then, I will say goodbye!
Starting point is 01:04:42 Thank you! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Starting point is 01:05:15 Even though right now we're in the air. Yeah. It was so much fun. Thanks so much for those who came out to Birmingham. Birmingham. Did I do it? That was pretty bloody good. Thanks so much for those who came out to Birmingham. Birmingham, did I do it? That was pretty bloody good. Yeah, I just want the headphones on my ear and let's think back to it. Thank you. Very good. I think if we come back, we'd definitely come back to Birmingham. It was such a fun time. It was awesome, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:39 Enjoyed so much. And what a wild story that movie making was. I had not heard any of that. It was fascinating. But then afterwards I watched a trailer for the movie and it looks crazy. Completely insane. I love how they, every 10 seconds they just go raw.
Starting point is 01:05:59 Yeah, raw. I watch the trailer as well, very, very, very, very, very, and then it lists the injuries that people sustained in the trailer for the movie. Very strange. Very proud of it. Yeah, you shouldn't be proud of that. That's the big hook.
Starting point is 01:06:13 Lots of people were hurt, and you're really bragging about it. It's like the high school bully. You know, he's really proud that he beat up a nerd. You're the movie itself is proud. Yeah. We really took him down. Yeah, we got him. The bully proud that they mull a nerd. The movie itself is proud. Yeah. We really took him down. Yeah, we got him.
Starting point is 01:06:26 They're probably proud that they mold a man's skill. This week's Fact Quotal question is gonna happen. Right now. Ooh. It comes in from first time Fact Quotal questioner, Jacob Giron or Giron or Yiron, let's say Giron and that's probably not right but thank you so much Jacob. Thanks Jacob. If you do support us on Patreon, one of the
Starting point is 01:06:52 tiers gets you into the fact-quotal question segment and each week we read out a different one. You also get to give yourself a title and Jacob's given himself the title of Mr. Morchutchal Grundey. Oh, I love that. And he has chosen to offer us a fact. And his fact is this, NBA legend Kobe Bryant once scored 62 points through three quarters of a game. The opposing team had 61. through three quarters of a game. The opposing team had 61. Wow, so he beat the team on his own. That's right. I said, thanks guys, you're the best and I've never missed a week. Oh, brag. Just because you're jealous because you have Jacob and me, the only two who can.
Starting point is 01:07:42 That's right. Only full-time members. Exactly. Unless you can't Nick Mason's logic that's only a real episode when he's on it then. Again, well then it's you, Matt and. Yeah, Mason's also in. You've missed the most episode and you've missed the most episode and you've missed the most episode. I was pointing the audience at everyone.
Starting point is 01:08:04 Yep. All right, well that's the audience at the end. Yep. All right, well, that's this week's back, Croto Crash, and thanks so much. That's very impressive. Yeah. I hope you're right. Who's now an Academy Award winner? What?
Starting point is 01:08:13 Yeah, they're based, there was an animated short film based on something that he wrote. I bet he's basketball career and it won the best animated short. That's cool. So he has an Oscar. Wow. That's insane. Isn't that. And he also scored 62 points
Starting point is 01:08:27 to three quarter time one time. My PB at basketball is like 26. That's great. Well, it's no Kobe, is it? No, it's not Kobe. I feel like you mentioned this on the pod before. Yeah. And that time, you're also self-deprecating when obviously 26 points is very good at the stage what were you like with four foot. This was more recently than as a child. As a kid I was not scoring 26 points. That's a great adult score or child score. Or was the last time you played like six months ago? Right. You got to go back to it or you were tired. No, no, no, I'm going back. I just took this season off because we were going away for several for like a month. Right, right, right. What made you played basketball still? Yeah, I don't know that. We've discussed this when we've
Starting point is 01:09:13 been trying to find a time to record podcasts and I've said, can't do Monday, I play basketball. I assume that was a lot. Yeah, I would thought you were lying as well. We were polite. Thank you for the surprise. We'd like to come down and cheer you on. I did not invite you I became it be that a cheer on okay, I'd love to All right, I can use call 27 points of we were there. Yeah, I'm not really enough to you I reckon I probably would play really well if you came only because the first time my boyfriend came to watch He's one of the best games I've ever played in my life because I was clearly showing off I think that's when I scored 26.
Starting point is 01:09:45 And then the next time he came, it was my worst game ever. It was terrible. I had to take myself off the court at one point because I was hyperventilating and I had to set the lie down on the ground. Really? Yeah, it wasn't good. What a roller coaster.
Starting point is 01:09:58 Yeah, so he's seen both my highs and lows. That was quite recent. Yeah. 26, so that's, you're hitting your P-Birt 28. Yeah. That was quite recent. Yeah. Wow. 26. So that's you're hitting your P-B at 28. Yeah. Discuss the limits. Yeah. Anyway, up. Next season. I'm going for 40. Yes. 40 in a game. That'll be so good. Yeah. And you'd be happy with that round number two. I would be 26 is annoying me a little bit, but the points are two. So it can't. Anyway, let's thank some people. All right. I'd
Starting point is 01:10:24 love to thank you by May, straight off the bat. These are some of our Patreon supporters that we're thinking, by the way, if you've never heard this segment before, if you support the show on Patreon, as well as a fact-quater question, some people get to be thanked by name for their support. And shout out. Also, Jess gives us a little, some sort of a game to play with their names.
Starting point is 01:10:41 Yes, so today was about Raw, which obviously 70 cast and crew members were injured by animals, mostly lions. I think we should say what animals these people would be injured by, not killed. If they were in the film industry, which may be some of them are, but if you were in the film industry, what would you be more? Yeah, at work. Also then we should, so this movie was mainly about lines, and that's why it's called Raw. So the animal we should have the movie name, what it would be called. Yeah, great.

Starting point is 01:16:48 movie's gonna be so good yeah if I was a film critic though I would do a bit of a switcheroo and I'd be like my life final line would be like now this film is a real good time but there's like he's the dots to make people pause and they're like oh she's gonna say hey Turn the page. Oh good time didn't see that coming hoot. Oh, maybe I'd have a film show And that way I'd be able to say it. It's probably a joke. That's a bit funnier.

Starting point is 01:18:05 what should she watch out for when she stars in her Hollywood blockbuster? Snakes. Oh no. And Australia has lots of fucked ones. Oh, I'm sorry, Katie, you actually do have to watch it back. Somebody at one of our live shows was saying they, uh, he was from Paris. And he was like, yeah, I was thinking of it. I reckon he was. I think he was from Paris and he was like, yeah, I was thinking he was I think he was from he was from Paris. I think you trust this and I he was saying he wanted to come to Australia just like a holiday or almost Joseph was Joseph and he said but is it safe? And I was like, yeah, I mean we like don't go out into the middle of the
Starting point is 01:18:45 outback by yourself. Sure. But in a city, you're fine. Yeah, it's hard to just go out to the middle of the outback. That would be quite a lot of effort. Yeah, you you don't accidentally end up in the middle of the outback. After several hours of driving and not seeing another person, you'd realize, maybe you'd taken a wrong turn. This is all good advice. I hope you're listening, Katie, because do not do what we're telling Joseph to. Yeah, exactly. And Katie's film. I think Katie's pretty well aware.
Starting point is 01:19:10 The film would be called. I think it would be called HISS. Yeah, it's got to be HISS. Oh, I like it. Yeah. HISS. Lots of essence. Lots of essence.
Starting point is 01:19:22 How many? Seven, you're okay? Yeah, I agree. All right, I'll do his seven-boy now. HISS. Lots of essence. Yes. Seven. How many? Seven, you're looking? Yeah, I'm looking. Alright, I'll do his seven boy now. Yes. That was seven. That was seven.
Starting point is 01:19:31 Just the Jets, so I'll probably round up to 10. Okay, 10. Katie, your film is. Yes. Perfect. He's really good at that. Yeah, that was great. It's kind of like when you're filling up the car with petrol and you try to get it to
Starting point is 01:19:44 like an even amount. You want to get it straight on. Some places here, you have to prepay, Matt, or were you going and paying, then there was a petrol attendant that was filling out the car, and you asked for 50 pounds worth and you went inside and just and I were thinking, we were watching very closely. You can get exactly 50. You're going to rip us off here. He gave us one Pence more than 50.
Starting point is 01:20:05 We got a free Pee petrol. Free Pee petrol. Oh, like this country. Free Pee. Free Pee. Free Pee. Should I go to Bulls, get a free Pee in twice? I think the opening scene of his will be a snake biting a bike tire.
Starting point is 01:20:21 Okay. And that will make it sound a little divvy to it better. It'll make it sound a little bit like this. And the movie begin. Yeah. Wow. This is a bit of a ritz symbolism.
Starting point is 01:20:40 You start the film there. And the movie begins. You actually hear the narrators. Yeah, Matt's the narrator Anyway, thank you Katie. Thank you so much. I'd also like to thank from Garing in what I imagine is New England I'll double check this one. You're a bit of an NE we've gone around the map a bit of an NE Do you have an NE we've gone around the map. I would like to thank from a garing possibly in New England Matt tell me no braska
Starting point is 01:21:06 You get what you do it tell me what new England is then new England is not a state. Oh, it's that collection of Polgize Yet you want me to apologize. I'm sorry Polgize for my From Nebraska my goodness from Nebraska, my goodness. From Gary Nebraska, even, I'm saying that right. I'd like to thank Ethan Pax. Pax.
Starting point is 01:21:32 Just one, just one, just one, yes. Pax, not Pax. Pax, don't do it. I love it. And his two A's there. Ha ha, Dickhead, I got you. All right, Ethan Pax, anybody got a feeling on an animal? Pax, I mean, Pax is very evocative of like, like, Dickhead I got you all right Ethan parks anybody got a feeling on an animal parks
Starting point is 01:21:45 I mean parks is very evocative of like like parks and park lands. Oh, that's what I'm that's what it does to me I know is that what it's a voking that's what's a voking for me and it is a vocative and we're strolling in England Through a park you have to of course watch out for volves volves yes So do you think that do you think that would be what we're talking about here? I think that Ethan has to watch out for voles. I'm not a hundred percent sure what a vol is You've googled it already. They are so small Describe a vol just in case anything does a vol is a small rodent relative of the mouse
Starting point is 01:22:22 It's like cute mouse though Not like always has a stouter body, a shorter hairytale, and a slightly round ahead. Smaller ears and eyes and differently formed molbers. Did you say cute mouse? Yeah. I think we have our film title, cute mouse. Cute mouse.
Starting point is 01:22:37 But I mean, the title is a bit misleading because obviously even gets moldy. Ethan is very, very, very, very hard. I'm one of them too. Not even like a pack of them. He's just really soft. Just a little bit embarrassing. One vol, who's done bad.
Starting point is 01:22:50 Evil could be the most important. A rogue vol. It's evil. Evolved. Evil and it's evolved. Into a blood sucking vol. I wish it made this move. What a, you know who should direct it?
Starting point is 01:23:03 Yandobond. Yandobond. Yandobond. It's a master. What a... You know who should direct it? Jan DeBond. Oh, Jan DeBond. Jan DeBond. He's a master. Oh, what a master. You know how they were saying, Noel was their safe word? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:14 Can we from now on? Instead of Noel, we'll say Noel. Instead of yes, we'll say Jan DeBond. Jan DeBond. Can that also be our safe word though? I'd love that. If you're in trouble, you're gonna go and hit the town now for a fun or not here in England.
Starting point is 01:23:27 We're gonna go see a musical on the West End. So if any of us get into trouble, we'll just yell, Yandabont! And then he'll say, yes, because he'll obviously be there because he's a classy man. Yes. Oh, Yandabont! Oh, Yandabont!
Starting point is 01:23:39 Do you want to go to the coffee later? Yandabont. Sorry, you in trouble? Yes, say, Dave, you confused this. Yeah, but I really just want it to be my safe. Yeah, but mine was cute and whimsical and you've made it weird. Well, let's make a bowl our safe word. Yeah, bowl. Bowl. Bowl. Thanks to Ethan. Thank you. Thank you. And to all the Patreon supporters that we have,
Starting point is 01:24:05 and if you want to join that crew of amazing people, you got a patreon.com slash do go on pod, and pledge any amount, any little amount to keep this show rocking and rolling and touring the world these days. Right, very nice. So funny. So weird to say.
Starting point is 01:24:21 So weird to say, but, and again, thanks, everyone, that came to the UK shows, we do hope to do more of this traveling and touring next year. So keep an eye out for that. And if you want to keep an eye out for any live show dates or our social media links or submit an idea for us to do a topic on, you can go to do go on pod dot com. Follow all the links there. That's right.
Starting point is 01:24:44 And if you do have a chance, it would be so nice if you would be able to give us a five-star review on iTunes or whatever the thing you use. Yeah, most platforms do have a rating system. So yeah. And the more love we get, the more it pops up in charts and other people's suggestions and that's how we find new people and then suddenly we're touring the places we've never even had. No, not everyone can afford to Support on Patreon, which is obviously absolutely fine But if you do have a chance, I'll be a real nice thing You could potentially do it gives a five-star review or even a we've met a few people in this tour who have taken a friend's phone
Starting point is 01:25:17 Who didn't know how to podcast Downloaded the podcast app and subscribed them to us and said listen to this episode you might like it And that's actually ended up with some people liking the show so much that they've come and seen us live, which is wild. Yeah. Totally wild. And also probably a little bit of an invasion of privacy. Yeah, but we're giving you the green light.
