Doug hates candy wrappers screening maybe sticky seeds with 50 acid pop or kernels in his teeth.
They're still not one that he won't see.
Because Doug.
Hey, hey, hey, everybody.
My name is Doug and I love movies.
Holy shit, that was better than rehearsal.
You guys really brought it for the actual performance.
Apologies for saying you guys, that's a microaggression.
This, we are coming.
Coming to you for the first time from Denver Underground Comedy Club, the only above-ground
underground club in the world in Denver, Colorado.
And we are recording at 420-ish.
Again, I was busy at 420.
We were recording 420-ish on Saturday, May 23rd for release on Thursday, May 26th,
So I'm just hoping nothing big happens in the news in the next four days,
then we're going to be like saying stupid shit on a podcast
because we didn't know any better.
You know what I mean?
Like right now, Los Angeles might explode.
So I'm getting that out there right now.
That's all I know at this point is that there's a problem in part of Los Angeles
and there's going to be a big explosion.
So they evacuated 40,000 people.
This gets funnier with every sentence.
I hope everybody survived whatever is about to happen.
That really timestamped the whole situation, didn't it?
All right, so let's look at the prize bag, everybody.
I brought a bag full of prizes.
Somebody's going to win him tonight.
It's in a custom limited edition, extremely limited edition,
Doug Loves movies, Tote.
And that's probably the best thing about it.
Everything else is, you know, you could give or take the rest of the quote-unquote prizes,
but here's what's in here.
Actually, there's some cool pins.
We got a Doug Benson pin from back when I, you know, had short hair, so trying to, you know,
unload those.
But now new on the market is a pin of me with longer hair, but also dressed up like
Willy Wonka.
And, yeah, and so I'm giving one of those away, but you can also, if you can also, if
If you want to purchase one yourself, they'll be available at my shows and then also at
t-dash pins with a z.com.
And on Instagram, it's T-pins with a Z.
What's the co?
Co.
Co.
Cool.
It's co.
Yeah, he had to do a T-pins with a dash because somebody got beat him to T-pins with a Z.
Who the fuck would want that?
That's the name of your company.
Why do they need it?
Speaking of companies, I brought a peacemaker.
This is a disposable weed pipe.
That's a rubber disposable weed pipe,
and it's only been used once.
And those aforementioned pins.
I'm really saving the best thing for last, if possible.
But this is a copy of Colorado.
Colorado Expression magazine.
That's in my hotel room.
No more. It's not in my hotel room anymore.
Somebody just randomly gave me this, and I flipped through it.
It's kind of fun.
It's a book called Hipster Puppies.
Just look at that hipster puppy on the front there.
But it's by Christopher R. Wine Garton.
And now I'm starting to think maybe that's who gave it to me.
Maybe like I made this book.
So credit to him if it is.
If not, whoever did make it just got a free plug.
Check out hipster puppies wherever
wherever hipster puppies are available.
And finally, it takes a lot for me to be parting with this,
but I was like, I'm going back to Denver.
This is going to be a really fun show.
I appreciate people coming out.
So somebody is going home with the star,
of the film
Benny loves you
the psycho
killer talking
doll
it's Benny
everybody
let's see if Benny has something he'd like
to say
where's the fucking
he laughed
he basically laughed
that's one of Benny's things
he has like a really
hysterical laugh
sort of Elmo-esque
but where does the sound come out
Yeah, I don't know
But that one was him going
Oh no
So, and he has a bloody knife in his hand
And I don't want to see him anymore
It's a creepy thing to have sitting around in your home
So enjoy it
And good luck, a neighbor of mine died
I'm not going to say it was Benny
I don't know if Benny
Had anything to do with it
Get in the fucking bag, Benny
Jesus, Benny
All right, fuck you Benny
I'll put you in the bag in a second.
Are you ready to meet the guests today?
Let's get on with it.
All right.
Coming to the stage,
they don't even know.
They don't necessarily know they're being picked.
This is like Price is right.
Come on down.
Adam, Caten Holland,
Matt Cobos,
and Jacob Rupp.
Welcome.
Hello, everyone.
Hello, hello.
Did any of you fellas see the movie, Benny, loves you?
No, I have not.
It sounds awesome.
Yeah, it's a fun movie.
It runs around murdering people, and it's pretty fun.
And, you know, I'm sure it's available somewhere.
I'm sure it's streaming somewhere.
My guess would be Shudder, if I had to guess.
You recounted it so vividly.
I feel like I've seen it now.
I think so, or just watch the trailer probably.
give you enough of an idea
what's going to happen and Benny loves
you. I mean, his definition of love
is whack.
That's all I have to say about
Benny. Yeah,
Benny really comes on strong. He really
love bombs before he murders.
So anyway,
I've had this thing for years. I've been talking about that
movie for years. I think that was like
a pandemic movie.
But speaking of a pandemic, my first guest
today.
Yeah.
I'm still doing
Zoom comedy.
No, you are headlining comedy works
right here in the D
on May 28th.
It's Adam Caten Holland, everybody.
That's not a real nickname
for Denver, right?
The D?
Do people say that?
Yeah, probably.
They do?
Do your dad say it?
Yeah, the big D?
It's a real dad thing to say?
Oh, yeah.
It struck my mind.
that it could be called that, of course,
because they just added a train line in Los Angeles
that's the D line,
and they made T-shirts and advertisements
and stuff saying,
ride the D.
These are like the city, the city is selling this?
The city is like, hey, everybody ride the D.
And it's like, that's not bad advice.
I think everybody would be happier
if they were riding some sort of D.
Gets you where you need to go?
Yeah, exactly.
but so yeah so thanks for being here Adam
thanks for the plug of my comedy work show
and doing your research I always appreciate that
I try you know to do the research
but check out how little I know about the next two guys
okay
hell yeah I will be attending Adam show
in the audience
he is a friend of Chad Opitz and Amy Miller
yeah so he is a friend of mine
it's Jacob Rupp
everybody.
Oh, hello, hello.
I honestly didn't know which one you're talking about, so that's good.
It's well, those two are friends with a lot of people in Denver, I think.
I think they're huge fans of the Denver comedy scene.
Raving a review, obviously.
And it's Rupp, everybody.
It is rough.
Rough is what dogs call him.
We plan that outside.
You didn't get it?
Rough, rough!
Anyway, okay, so thank you for being here.
I hear you're super into movies.
Yes, I went to film school.
I'm an AMCA A-lister, and that's it.
Yeah, step one, step two.
Success.
That's it.
I've never said it out loud that I'm an A-lister.
It really is, it's funny how highfalutin that is,
and you know, you're just paying money
that you might be wasting.
if you don't see a certain number of movies every month.
I get mad.
I get madder now at the studios when there's not,
you know,
when there's a week or two goes by
where nothing good comes out.
Because I'm just like,
you're fucking over my A list.
I only get four a week.
And you're messing with it because,
you know, I can't even max it out at four.
Because I don't see things over again.
Four a week?
So 16 a month for free?
Yeah.
That's the A list?
Yeah.
And it could be,
it could be IMAX.
It could be 3D.
It could be anything they normally up charge for.
You still get in just as one of your choices.
You could be in my entourage.
I would love to.
You just got to live near AMCs.
You know, it's like people that don't live near one, they're fucked.
And I personally don't feel like I live close enough.
Like the closest movie theater to me is not an AMC,
and I wish it was, but it isn't.
I'll have some more great stories like that
if you wanted to talk to me in the alley
after the show.
And our third guest.
Man, I can't wait to see how deep you dug.
He did two killer sets here last night
that I witnessed with my own goddamn eyeballs.
And I've been practicing how to say his name all day today,
and I'm worried I'm going to fuck it up.
It's Matt Cobos.
You got it.
You got it.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, we had a great time last night here at the DCU.
DCU, right?
Yeah, this is the DCU.
So that leads you to this question.
Which do you prefer, Matt, DCU or Marvel?
Do you have a preference?
I don't mean to throw a hardball at you.
And the question I asked Jacob was,
you like movies.
Yeah, I'm a DCU guy, dude.
Yeah, you are?
Yeah.
All right, well, it's been nice knowing you,
and we eliminate people fast on this show.
That was an elimination question,
and you answered it correctly.
Although, you know, it's shifting.
Like, you know, you mean recent DCU has pleased you.
Yeah, no, I mean this venue specifically.
Oh, yes.
No, we're all everybody's pro-de-old.
because it's just so great to be
above ground and underground
at the same time,
both physically and metaphorically.
Well, before we play some games today,
I've prepared some dumb games for us to play,
but before we do that,
I would like each one of my guests
to recommend one movie,
just some movie
that for whatever reason they think people
should see it. We'll start with you, Adam.
What would you like to recommend today?
I just saw it,
nights ago, it was called
It was just an accident.
Anybody seen that movie? It's Iranian film.
It won canned last year.
It is fucked up and
amazing. And on free, on
Hulu. I have a list of things that I want to
watch, so I was like, all right, well, what's free?
And that wasn't the ones that I had. So I watched it the
other night, and it's fantastic. Yeah, it's
fucked up and it's free. It's fucked up, and it's
free. Yeah, if you want to have a miserable
experience that you might not
shake for quite some time,
but not pay for the privilege.
then this is the way to go.
While also getting an inside look at exactly who we're bombing and feeling terrible about
yourself.
Go watch that movie, everybody.
Oh, yeah.
I didn't even factor in that element of it.
That's really, wow.
It was a fun one.
So let's start out the plot on that note.
Yes.
It's extra rough.
It's not rough.
It's rough.
That's right.
Extra rough.
But it was a fucking great movie and like a miracle that it was made under an oppressive
regime.
And it's just, it was awesome.
Right.
And he came, you know, to the United States.
And then if he goes back, because of that movie and all the acclaimant's getting, if he goes back, they'll, you know, they'll throw him in jail.
So he's, you know, just out there in the wind.
Winning awards for an amazing movie.
Yeah.
It's very good.
Yeah.
But it's intense.
And I think we've said enough.
We've tucked everyone in the room out of that movie.
So they were like, I was going to watch it, but now I'm not going to watch it.
Yeah.
Also, I.
It's just a thing about movie titles these days is it was just an accident.
You know what I mean?
So many movie titles now are just some phrase that somebody would say,
you know, I was skipping down the street.
Did you see that movie?
Oh, I thought you were describing your day.
I didn't know.
Yeah, it's crazy the titles these days.
But it's called, did I get it right?
It was just an accident?
Although I saw the French title of it was like,
an accident simply or something like that.
Oh, a simple accident.
Like a simple accident.
That sounds better, but I don't know.
You guys, you do the math.
Get back to me and Doug on whether you prefer the French.
No, they're trying to be like, how would they say it?
Right.
What would they, you know, it's a clunkier title.
I like that other title better.
Accidents simple.
Is that what?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
I love it.
And it was a French title for an Iranian film.
So many questions.
Right.
And it was the French that submitted it for the Oscar is their submission
because each country can only say.
submit one movie.
Yeah.
And I submitted that.
Pretty noble shit.
Yeah.
Really good stuff.
All right.
It's Jacob.
My movie is just like Adams.
No, it's just the last movie I saw and I loved Obsession, which is pretty cool.
I don't know if anyone seen that yet.
People are loving obsession.
Just the very last episode of this show, somebody brought that up as their movie to
recommend.
It's a miracle to be made.
An Iranian person smuggled it into sketch comedy.
going to get director hands.
No, but yeah, it's another
sketch comedy guy who, I forgot his name
now, but it's making horror movies now
and it's really great, really funny
in a dark way. Is it Curry Barker?
Yes, yes, that's exactly.
Which I am assuming is a Nepo baby?
Five Barker.
Bob Barker.
Right, Bob Barker.
Of course.
Said, come on down to Hollywood, son.
Yeah, very rough.
Neuter your pets, everybody.
Yeah,
People are liking obsession way more than I did.
But that happens to me a lot with horror films for some reason.
It seemed to be hardly everyone comes out anymore that everyone agrees is terrible
because when it comes to horror, there's something for everybody.
There's something that would scare one person and not another.
Was obsession scary to you or just a fun watch?
I mean, it was a little scary, but it was mostly a fun watch.
Yeah.
But I've seen a lot of, yeah, horrible.
It didn't go hard on the jump scares, if I recall correctly.
No, no.
And it's like very technical.
It's very like kind of old school filmmaking.
It's very like.
Sure.
Yeah.
Moody lighting.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Yes, Kelly, spooky faces.
Clap if you, clap if you saw it.
Hell yeah.
Now clap enthusiastically if you saw it.
That was just so funny how it took a second to take off.
Like, well, okay.
I guess I guess I will,
commit to this.
Did you like it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Look, it's more of an Iranian
trauma crowd, and you're not going to
win them over it with every movie.
That's right. It's an Iranian trauma
audience. Making a wish for
a girlfriend. It was just an accident.
I mean, so far, both of these
names just seem like perfumes,
you know, colognes, I tried as a teenager.
All right. And then
Matt, what would you like to recommend?
It's just one of my favorite movies, really, is my boyfriend's back.
I don't know if you guys have ever seen that.
Wait, wait a second.
It's just about, like, it's about a guy, like, getting a back tattoo?
Yeah, yeah, lower, it's just about somebody's back?
Yeah, exactly.
Who is this?
Who's in this movie?
Philip Seymour Hoffman is in it when he's really young.
It's like in 1992.
It's like, this kid keeps coming back, he comes back from the grave because he wants to date this girl.
bad in high school.
Fuck, yeah, great premise.
Yeah, and then he gets bullied for being dead the whole movie.
It's great.
It's starting to feel familiar to me.
Yeah.
And how did you become such a fan?
I just saw it.
I worked at a record store in the DVD room, and it was just one of the best.
Oh, that's where they put you when you've been bad?
Yeah, totally.
The DVD room?
Yeah, totally.
Matt, go to the DVD room.
Watch something on repeat.
Now, we can't lock the door.
It's a beated curtain, so honor system.
Don't come out of there.
Give him a binkie and a PBR.
But it wasn't a claim, though.
It's an acquired taste.
Like, you like it specifically?
Like, it wasn't...
Yeah, yeah, totally.
Yeah, not a lot of people know about it, I think.
Right, but he probably didn't get good reviews
from stodgy film critics and whatnot.
Is it actually good, or is it, like, ironically good?
It's ironically good.
Okay, is Philip Seymor Hoffman a bully?
Yeah.
Fuck yeah.
Love that.
Love that.
He's a jock?
Yeah.
Okay.
Got to bring those back, bullies.
We've got to bring bullies back.
That had to be like one of his first things he ever was in, I would think.
Yeah, 92, yeah.
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
I watch it just for, you know, just to check that out.
Yeah, it's great, dude.
And also, you know, see if it brings it, see if I watch five minutes and I go, oh, yeah, I've seen this.
You know, that could happen.
I bet Cobos can get you a deal on that DVD.
Oh, my God.
Do not, I'm not going anywhere near that room.
I have an idea what you did in that room all the time.
such sexy DVDs.
All right, so thanks for those recommendations.
I will be seeing maybe one of them
because I've already seen two of them.
And we're going to play some games right after this.
We'll be right back.

in the break we pick some people in the audience who made clever name tags or came up with clever
names
that my guests are going to
play on behalf of. So Adam
is playing for Eric Force
1 and
Jacob is playing for
low down dirty
Shane and
and
Matt is playing for
proletitor
proletitor.
Let's just call
him Paul the predator.
I don't know that's a good thing to be called these days.
If you had the full costume on, people would get it.
You know, if he dressed like a predator.
But he's dressed like a monster from outer space.
All right.
So we picked name tags.
Oh, I did that already.
We're back.
I did that already, too.
A dinosaur story.
Thank you.
Our first game today is something I call Bain again.
Or maybe I should call it Bain or Gain.
That'd be fun too.
But anyway, there's lots of ways to go with it.
But ultimately, the point of this game is that I'm dusting off my Bain voice
and using it to basically give you clues.
The clue is I'm going to say a line spoken by a famous movie villain.
villain, but I'm not going to do an imitation of them.
I'm going to do it how it sound of Bain said it, or my dumb version of Bain.
So you just yell out who you think it is.
You have to say either the villain or the actor who plays the villain, the first person
that says it right, gets a point.
And after a little bit of time, if nobody gets it, I'll call it.
But I think the three of you are going to ace this.
Hell yeah.
Yeah.
Thank you, Doug.
Can you pick out, like, if you saw a pig and a cow
and another thing and a horse,
could you pick out which one was the horse?
I could do it better than anyone's ever done it.
Yeah, if you could ace that, you're probably going to ace this.
It's like, are you a robot test thing?
Yeah.
Can you do all the bikes in this picture?
Okay, here we go.
Which villain from cinema history said, wait, let me practice Bain for a second.
It is time to come out from the darkness.
Okay, here we go.
You found it.
Yeah, I found it.
Let the games begin.
That's what I should have said.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's what he says.
All right, here we go.
It's cool to watch you get into character.
Which one?
Doesn't even change.
He's just always Bain, I think.
You know, you're dealing with the performance.
professional voice artist when they cup the microphone with their hand.
You know, they really, they really know how to get the nuance just right.
And here is the first quote.
Throw me a bone here.
Throw me a bone here.
Throw me a bone here.
Dr. Evil?
Dr. Evil is correct.
From Austin Powers International Man of Mystery.
How did you do the one movie's Matt scene?
Are we going to do like all Adam Sandler fans?
I was way off.
I thought it was the dog from Beethoven.
Yeah, I was going to say killmonger no matter what.
Yeah, killmonger.
I mean, you know, guesses don't have to be good, you know, just go for it.
Wait, so who got that one?
That got that one.
Cobos.
All right, here we go.
You're on a hot street, Cobos.
one.
He didn't go home from those good sets last night.
He's just riding the wave.
Have you ever met anybody that you're not related to who has the last name
Cobos?
No.
Right?
It's not real.
Yeah.
Adam's got two real last names.
You can take either one of those.
You can have whichever one you want.
Matt Caden or Matt Holland.
His real name is Cobos Aater.
All right.
I'll have you on my other podcast if you're interested.
It's called Wide World at Dugs, and we talk about names and, you know, how they affect our lives.
You sure you want to have Monzing as his name's not real?
Well, that's the thing. We'll get to the bottom of it.
It'll be the most suspenseful episode that we've ever done.
It's usually just more like, so what's your middle name?
And they're like, Joe, Joseph.
Okay, here's the next one.
Here's the next one.
Get in, loser.
We're going shopping.
That's Regina George.
That's Regina George.
Who said it?
Who said it first?
Jacob got it first.
Thank you.
I was hoping I'd have to say that one a few times.
Get in the car, loser.
We're going shopping.
That's also a killmonger, I think.
All right, this is exciting.
You got to get on the board, Adam.
We've got a couple more chances.
Why the hell are you dressed up like a chicken?
Why the hell?
Is that Merrill Streep?
Are you dressed up like a chicken?
They were a proud of a chicken.
Chicken!
Chicken!
Oh, little.
chicken.
Nobody?
Tough one, I guess.
One of the most
successful movies of all time.
That is Marv
in Home Alone talking to
Harry when he looks like a fucking chicken.
All right, good, good, good.
They're sneaky villains, though,
because you kind of sympathize with them.
Yeah, they're likable villains.
Yeah, Matt's one of those villains.
All right, here we go.
You got to get this one, guys.
Here we go.
He'll get this one before I finish it.
It's too long.
Mirror, mirror on the wall.
It's the most perfect kingdom of all.
Maleficent.
Mirror, mirror on the wall.
It's the most.
Did Lord Farquot say that in Shrek?
Yes, that's it.
It's Lord Farquhart and Shrek.
Thank you.
Good.
Everyone in the room knew that.
Oh my God.
Man, this film degree is really paying off for Jacob.
It sure is because that was round four.
That means that Jacob is the winner of that game.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Congratulations.
Thank you, thank you.
What that means is you get to go first in our next game,
which may or may not be an advantage.
We'll see, depending on what game we end up playing.
Oh, it's going to be this one.
Interesting choice, Doug.
This is something called
How long is it?
All right.
Why are you so scared?
What's the matter?
It's going to be fine.
Here's how it works.
I'll name a thing,
and then you guys have to guess how long it is.
Fantastic.
I got to take these sunglasses off.
I can't read shit.
I can't read.
my tiny tiny writing because I try to get everything on one piece of paper to keep my, you know, my
footprint.
You got to keep your footprint.
What kind of?
You got to keep your footprint.
It's like you're not even a person in it.
Some villains do burn their footprints off though.
My ecological footprint is what I wanted to say.
That's maleficity.
I really needed that other word.
Okay.
So I'm going to tell you what the thing is.
right now
and you're going to have to guess
starting with
since Jacob won that game
he's going to go first
then Matt and then Adam
yeah who knows though
this might work out for you
it's closest to the correct number
without going over
Price is right style
in words
how long
is the longest
Tom Hanks motion picture
title this is film
that Tom Hanks is in.
One of them has the longest title.
How many words do you think there are
in that title, Jacob?
Four.
Jacob is saying four.
Let me make a note of it.
Okay.
Matt?
I'm going ten.
Matt?
I'm going with a fantastic
like we're talking.
This is like a,
Birdman number or something.
That's like something with a colon in it for sure.
Okay, Adam, what's your guess?
I'm Price is writing it with five.
What do we have so far?
We got four and ten.
And you're thinking, yeah, you'll split the diff with the five.
I even thought of a movie that's five.
Okay, let's hear it.
That thing you do.
That's four.
That thing that you do.
what?
That's not the title.
The thing that you do.
Catch me if you can, can.
It's funny.
That thing that you do.
He has a bunch of fours for sure.
He's because a bonfire of the vanities.
Joe versus a volcano.
I could go on.
Go ahead.
Man with one red shoe.
Oh, yeah.
Wait.
That's five.
Man with one red shoe.
That's the five.
It's five.
So there's some fives also.
And that thing that you do, of course, the five, the famous, most famous five.
Yes.
But it doesn't matter how you got there.
Your strategy worked, Adam, because the longest title in Tom Hanks' career is a six-word title.
And so Adam wins that game.
Jealous guys.
And that title is a beautiful day in the neighborhood.
Oh, sure.
Sure.
sure.
Yes.
The neighborhood, of course, is one word.
All right.
You would have thought, you know, a lot of actors have some crazy title in their
filmography that's super long, so I didn't think 10 was a, you know, was a bad guess.
All right.
I did.
You smarty.
All right.
I have to get more high.
We're going to take another break, and we will be right back.
We're back.
What an emotional journey that break was.
We all just need to relax and calm down.
That was crazy.
But we got one more game to play tonight,
and we're a little bit ahead of schedule,
so I spent some extra time during the break
of being a weirdo.
The game we're going to play to determine it all today,
it takes a few minutes to play,
So buckle up everybody.
It's called The Little Search Engine That Could.
People love it.
It's a game where I wake up on the show taping day
and I type a word.
Whenever word strikes my fancy,
I type it into the search engine on the internet movie database.
and then I jot down the 10 most popular answers
to movies with that word in the title.
This is, of course, is according to the algorithm
and search engine at Internet Movie Database.
I am DB.
I like to use it because I am DB.
Oh, shit. I didn't even put that together.
Is it named after you?
Yeah, that's one of those.
I was this many days old when I found out.
Internet movie Doug Benson, that's what it stands for.
Yes.
Holy smile.
That was the original title of the show, but I'm too passionate about movies to not say love.
Yeah.
Yeah, I really am.
I don't make love to most of the movies we've talked about.
That's cool.
Even the Iranian one?
I'd be gentle.
Okay.
So, you know, I'd be trying to be sensitive about it.
Don't want to be a brute?
For sure.
Okay.
So here's how this works.
I typed the word in, and the three of you are going to take turns guessing movies
that you think might have landed in the top ten that have this particular word in the title.
You can each go to the person who you're playing for.
You can go to that person at one point and ask them for one answer,
and then you can take it or leave it once they give you an answer.
Because they always ask, whenever they give an answer,
they always ask me, can I take it or leave it?
So I've worked that into the rules.
Go ahead and take it or leave it.
I'm playing for Eric and no matter what he says, I'm going to leave it.
Wow.
That's an interesting strategy.
Because one of the other players could pick it up on their turns.
Exactly.
I'm just trying to spice shit up in here.
Because they heard it, you know?
Yeah, you like a challenge.
You didn't come here to just walk all over these guys.
And they didn't come here to lay down.
I don't know what they're doing after this show.
Okay.
after the show they're going to lay down
I'm going to walk all over
it's unrelated to the podcast
this is a thing we do when we hang
my back hurts
okay so
so Adam's going first
to this one
and then it goes to Matt
and then to Jacob
and the word Matt
that you have to come up with
a movie that has
sorry Adam
okay
the word
since a lot of people here tonight
this afternoon are probably high
and skipped going on a trip
this Memorial Day weekend
the word is trip
there's a lot of movies
the first movie that comes to mind
a lot of them to choose from
don't rush into anything
so I'm just supposed to say like the highest ranking one
like yeah what do you think is number one
people are typing it in today
like I got a
find out about this movie today.
I think it's, you said it, because they can't go on road trips, they're yearning for it.
So it's road trip.
They're just like, we're here this weekend, let's watch a movie about a road trip.
Yeah.
Or even we're going on a road trip.
To get excited.
Let's put on a road trip.
Gas is too expensive.
We can't afford to go on a road trip.
And also, kind of a timeless classic road trip is.
So, you know, it's hitting on all cylinders.
Yeah, it is number one on the list.
So we're out of the gate with Adam has 10 points, but we'll see what Matt has to say about that.
Yeah, not.
Where are you at, Matt?
I'm going with Bad Trip.
Bad Trip.
What is that?
Isn't it the one with Eric Andre that came out a few years ago?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, right.
That was called Bad Trip.
And it's number nine on the list.
Two points.
No, I'm sorry. It's number 15.
I get my nines and 15s confused as well.
Wait a little you hear what's number nine is.
You'd be like, oh, I get it.
I understand why he mixed those two up.
But I'm sorry.
That was such a good answer.
Everybody loved it.
I think that's a fun movie, right?
Eric Andre, running around tricking people.
Having episodes in front of people watching their reaction.
All right.
Apologies to Matt, but you're not out of this yet.
So don't panic.
But Jacob, this is your first time at the plate.
What would you think?
Guilt trip, I think.
Guilt trip
starring Seth Rogen and
Barbara Streisand
on a long road trip
together
and hence the name
guilt trip because you know
he doesn't see her enough
and her opinion
I'm just stalling till I find it
I know it's
in here number eight on the list
same
same
number eight that's great
so you're on the board
you got three points
for that one.
But now we're back to Adam.
We could just sit here and, you know, solidify
and prove upon his current lead.
Oh, yeah.
So another one with Tripp in it then?
Okay.
Yeah, you're going to get three answers,
and you could go to your lifeline.
Yeah.
And any point.
I was just making a joke earlier.
I want to hear what Eric has to say,
because I'm drawing a blank.
No, I'm sure you're going to, yeah,
you're going to play the game.
I'm going to play the game.
I'm phoning a friend.
I'm going to phone a friend to my man, Eric.
What do you got?
Eric, have you thought of one?
Okay.
Uh-oh.
He's thinking Girls Trip was a movie.
You're not really allowed to ask us if something is a movie.
Right.
That's not how these kind of games work, but that's his guess.
Girls Trip.
Do you like to say Girls Trip or do you have a better idea?
I feel like Girls Trip could be a movie.
So I'm going to say yes.
Girls Trip.
Girl's trip could be a movie from 2017
that starred put her on the movie map basically
Tiffany Haddish
Yeah that's right
Yeah girls trip is number four on the list
Eric
Way to go dude
Yeah that was a big box office success
That was a very successful movie
That's right yeah yeah
Jada Pinkett Smith
And it was a group
They were in New Orleans
Four ladies
They were going fucking nuts
Oh one of them was like hanging from the ceiling
And she peed on everybody
It was wild.
Yeah, it was really crazy.
Good times.
Yeah.
But man, this is, that's a,
Adam's got a lot of points.
I, you know, I'd call it right now, but, you know.
You got to fill the time.
And it's really, you know, it's comfortable in here.
I want to stay here in the dark for a little,
a little while longer before going out into the harsh Denver sun.
The D.
Get your D baked.
No, that doesn't work.
No, vitamin D.
Get your bake on you.
Okay.
What's that drink?
Sunny D.
Sunny D.
Yeah.
Soda, purple stuff.
Sunny D.
I picked the purple stuff.
Given that choice.
Jacob.
I mean, sorry, Matt.
Let's get in the game, Matt.
Yeah, we need the Paulator, dude.
Oh, he's going to the Paulator.
Paul the predator.
Paulinator.
What's the pollinator got to say?
He knows that there's a strategy that you can play
where you just say the word back
and there's got to be something.
Well, let's do it because I don't know another one.
There's got to be a movie that's just called Trip.
So I'm going to go ahead and look real hard for it.
I'm going to make sure I don't overlook anything
before I say, nope.
Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.
Sorry.
great try though
pollinator
pollinator
oh
did you accept it
did you say you wanted to use it his answer
oh yeah dude I don't know another one
okay good
I forgot that part where you could have turned it down
but I guess you probably wouldn't have
because it did seem smart
it was smart
Jacob you got some smart up your sleeve
we get three answers total
Is that right?
Yes, you still got two more guesses.
You're not completely out of this.
So I think every film student had to Google, like a trip to the moon.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So that's my answer for the second answer.
The like silent short film?
Yeah, that's the winking moon.
That a spaceship goes into it.
I don't even know how that would, if that would qualify on IMDB as a film.
Is that Melville, Herman Melville?
I don't know how long it is.
Sorry, Shane.
overthought this.
Oh, it's not, it's not Jules Verne.
It's not Jules Verne.
It's Herman Melville.
It's like the Smashing Pumpkins video did it.
Yeah, yeah.
With Tom, Kenny and Jill Talley.
Are they in that?
Yeah.
No sure.
They're the couple of running around acting.
Oh, yeah, you're totally right.
Acted out of the film.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
What just happened?
Jacob didn't get any points for Man in the Moon.
That doesn't have the word trip in it.
Trip to the man.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Trip to the moon.
All right.
Adam, are you just going to keep crushing this thing?
Yeah, I got another one.
Euro trip.
Oh, shit.
I do like that movie a lot.
That sucks.
Euro trip isn't on here.
No, what?
Maybe because it's one word, maybe?
Maybe.
Judging off the audience reaction.
I know.
I know.
That was a great answer.
Everyone's wrong.
I also don't think any confidence use of the word trip
at this point to get a reaction because it's, we're really getting down to it here.
I don't know if anybody else is going to get one right, but let's keep going.
And who's up next?
That was Adam's last guest, right?
I'm out.
I'm out the game.
So now we go to Matt.
I think I saw when I was scrolling.
I think it's Matt's turn.
What is it?
Matt's turn.
I think it's.
I think it's.
it's Matt's turn.
So go ahead, Matt.
Forget that you heard.
Forget what you heard.
Or be a real
shifty person
and take the knowledge
you just got.
Oh, I missed it, dude.
You weren't listening
to what he was saying?
He just went out of
a turn and said an answer out loud.
Oh, yeah, no, multiple people were talking.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't think Colos was cheating.
I think he missed whatever.
Yeah, no, I love it.
Love it. What's your next answer?
Can you believe I miss stuff, dude? That's insane.
It was really. It was chaotic. It was like an Altman
film. Yeah, dude.
I said, I was scrolling and I saw a movie
called Trip Sitter.
Trip Sitter? Yeah.
So it's probably not on there because nobody did anything.
What do you think that's about? Like somebody
does a lot of drugs while babysitting?
Yeah.
Doesn't seem very responsible.
No, of course not. That's not.
there. But that...
It's still fun that you had an answer.
And you had an answer all three times.
And so I always want to
give a special award to somebody
who has three, you know, three legit
answers and then none of them are in there.
So, so congrats on
that, Matt. I'm really good at being wrong.
Yeah, you're killing it. But
Jacob gets one more.
Yes. Shane, what do we got? Anything?
He's going to Shane.
Oh.
Shane is saying the legendary boat trip.
do that.
Starring Cuba Gooding Jr.
Lock it in.
It is number nine on the list.
Hey, hell yeah.
Boat trips on there, but Eurotrips not on there?
Yeah, boat trip is two words.
But yeah, that is
fun.
You got some more, a couple more points.
Not enough to overtake Adam over here.
unfortunately. Adam is our winner today, everybody.
And before I reveal all of the other answers
that did not get revealed so far,
because everybody's dying to know that,
let's go ahead and have Adam do your plugs.
What would you like to plug?
You know what? This is a movie podcast. I made a movie, Doug.
It's called See You When I See You.
I see you. It's...
I should.
open with that in your intro. It's out at film festivals. It was at Sundance. It was at South By.
That's awesome. And it's coming out this fall. It's a Jay Duplas directed it, Duplas brothers.
See you when I see you. Keep an eye out for it. It's at festivals now. I'll be out in the fall.
And I take it back earlier I was saying I didn't like titles. They were just phrases that people use.
That's your goddamn movie. I'm sorry. As soon as you said that, I was like my movie's exactly that.
Hello, how are you doing the movie?
I'll backtrack a little bit
I'll see you when I see you
is pretty memorable
probably we'll see
Yeah I don't know
We'll see when I see it
Yeah when you see it
When you see it
See it and see you see it
And tell me what you think of it
I'm gonna see how much of me I see in it
But congratulations on that
That's very cool
Very cool
All right so
You were playing
On behalf of
Eric Force One.
Eric Force One.
Fortunately right here in the front row
so he could just come over here.
You want to grab the prize bag?
Congratulations, dude.
Look at that.
Very nice.
Good job with that girls' trip.
Deep cut, bud.
You earned that.
Wow.
You were feeling.
He's just sitting around thinking about girls' trip.
Oh, that girl was hanging from the ceiling in the mall
and she peed on everybody.
Eric just slapped.
He slapped his knee alone, remembering that one.
Holy shit.
That is a serious trip right there.
So yeah, so congratulations on that,
and be careful around that.
Look out for Benny,
because he's going to try to get you.
All right.
Now I'd like to share with everybody.
Oh, one more thing.
Who should I just say it quietly to me?
Who should I call a shithead at the end of the show?
in your honor.
You can just stay quiet.
Yeah.
All right.
Some people heard it, but that's okay.
I don't think the listeners probably didn't hear it.
Let's go down the line.
Jacob Rupp, everybody.
How are you feeling?
How are you feeling after your first appearance?
Good.
Feel great.
Sorry, Shane.
But, yeah.
Shane still loves you.
He's still supporting me, so that's good.
Do you think we should give you another shot?
Do you think you could, you know,
You think you could win in the future?
I think I can.
I think Adam just went first.
First loss ever?
First time you've ever lost in anything.
Yeah, you've had a real hot streak ruined by this guy.
Ruined by old ACH over here.
All right, so, and did we say your website and your Instagram, that kind of shit?
Oh, yeah, you can follow me on Instagram at Rupp Jacob.
I'm all around Denver.
I work at a studio called Dude AdiK Studios, where we do comedy special and stuff.
We actually filmed Adams' last comedy specials about Mindslayer.
Beautiful specials.
So we have a bunch of specials coming out and stuff, so keep, do that.
That'd be great.
Nice.
Yeah, yeah.
There he is.
And finally, one more chance for me to fuck it up.
It's Matt Cobos, everybody.
You know, I figured out a way to remember it is I just think of co-host.
Yeah, that works.
Cobos.
Yeah, a lot of people fuck it up.
Cabos.
Yeah.
A lot of Cabos.
No, those people just want to leave the country.
Just go down to Cabos, San Lucas.
Can I say something?
I didn't want it to speak out of a turn.
I feel like C-O-B-O-S is so easy to say.
Isn't that insane?
Cobos.
I don't see any other way you could pronounce that.
Like you could mistake it for Cabos if you imagine an A in there.
But Cobos to me is pretty easy.
I don't see it.
Yeah, those people are goddamn idiots.
That's what I'm saying.
That's why I was so confident today.
I knew how to pronounce it without even having asked.
I came in here, ready to go.
and I got it. I nailed it.
I aced that cognitive test.
Tell us more about yourself.
Where can people find you?
At stupid Matt Cobos on the radio.
I love that.
You put stupid Matt Cobos.
Dude, it comes up right away.
You just type in stupid.
It's perfect, dude.
It's awesome.
Oh, nobody else went with that handle.
Put stupid in their name.
Yeah, I'm a genius.
And then I also have a podcast called Kobos Patrick Podcast,
and it's really stupid and fun.
You'll get dumber. It's awesome.
I love that.
There's no point to it. There's no point.
I mean, there's no point to any of this.
Yeah, yeah, dude.
Yeah, you just won. That's pointless.
Sorry, I've been watching Iranian trauma films.
I'm going to be doing my show,
The Benson Movie Interruption, Dynasty Typewriter in L.A.
on June 2nd, that's a Tuesday,
And then on the weekend of June 18th through 20th, I'm doing stand-up at the Funny Bone in St. Louis.
Oh, I got to write down the shithead that Air Force Eric gave me.
Air Force Eric.
Now he's noble all of a sudden, dude.
I didn't realize he was a fucking veteran.
Jesus Christ.
My bad.
Yeah, dude.
Thanks for your service, Eric.
Hell yeah, dude.
Okay, so here's the trip movies that didn't get mentioned.
And for good reason, I think, in pretty much every case.
Number 10 is a movie from 2024 came out of Finland called Heavier Trip.
Yeah, audience member got that right.
Jesus.
Jesus Christ.
Okay.
So that was number 10.
Number 9 was the guilt trip.
And then we also had...
Nine was boat trip.
Eight was guilt trip.
And then seven...
Can't believe you guys didn't get this.
Tyler Perry's Joe's College Road Trip.
Oh, sure.
And it even says on IMDB formerly titled Joe's College Road Trip.
I go, I got a new title.
Tyler Perry's.
Joe's College Road Trip.
And then the full title,
I think they're going to come out with yet another version,
is the Ruth's Chris,
Joe's,
Tyler Perry's,
coffee's road trip.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a lot.
But, you know,
Tyler Perry,
he's a real marquee buster.
He gives them too many words
that just has to go straight to streaming.
All right.
And then where it just says a few of the words and then dot, dot, dot,
you can't click on it to see the rest of the title.
Number one are we up to, six.
Seven, I just said seven was Tyler Perry's, Joe's.
I don't have to say the whole thing again, do I?
And then six was, okay, this was going to be fun if this happened.
It never did.
And you were close to it when you said it earlier.
There are three movies in the top ten called The Tr.
Trip.
What?
Yeah, and they're not, and they're all, like, you know, different movies.
There was a series of movies called the Italy, the trip to Greece,
but the first one was called Trip with two Steve Coogan.
Oh, yeah, like Travelog movies.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're very entertaining.
But all three of them, or no, one of them ended up on the list.
But also there was a movie from 1967.
It comes in number six, starring Peter Fonda, called The Tristan.
And then, so if anybody had said the trip at any point, I would give you three dates and you'd have to pick one.
And then I'd tell you how many points you got for it.
Because number two was another movie called The Trip from 2021, not related to any of the others.
What the fuck?
Starring a new me repase, you know, the girl with the dragon tattoo.
All right, so what did I miss?
Oh, number three, this is so stupid.
It's from this year a movie came out called Broad Trip.
Oh man, they're just trying to get that girl's trip, Buck.
I guess.
It was like two white ladies and, you know, broad.
I don't know.
Like, I guess they're trying to...
Like, get a load of these broads.
Yeah, they're trying to take the term back, you know, that kind of thing.
Yeah, there's a lot of power in that.
Yeah, it really is.
Cobos in his DVD room.
I'm putting it on, dude.
And as we know,
Road Trip, of course, is the number one movie with Tripp in the title.
And thank you, everybody here for enduring that.
And, like, you know, we have a couple extra minutes.
We came in.
This is a tight show today.
You guys aren't jabbery contestants.
Sometimes my contestants won't shut the fuck up, so it pads the show.
You guys keep it tight.
I think we're all just very respectful.
We're in awe of the show.
Yes.
And so we just want to really do it justice.
Well, you did.
You did, especially any listener that likes it to be shorter.
Anyone sitting here today is like, this better not be too long.
After what L.A. has gone through?
I think they're going to be like, I just could use a short one, a little shot in the arm,
and then I've got to get back to shoveling chemicals off my roof.
That's that movie San Andreas, right?
Now I'm really hoping that that whole situation ends up with nobody getting...
Me too, because that's not going to age well at all.
We're going to seem super callous.
Clip that up of Adam doing that.
Do you what Kate and Holland said on Douglove's movies?
Like it'll explode the morning this comes out,
and people listen to this going,
what insensitive assholes?
Their mountains.
Disneyland was destroyed.
How's it?
Disney. We still got really quiet on that.
Do people in Denver go to Disneyland a lot?
No, because you got Eilich, man.
You got an amusement park. Itch. Come on down to Eilich.
Gardens. Is it gardens?
Those roller coasters are some of my favorite gardens.
So I thought it would be fun with a couple extra minutes to spare.
if I did
the one round of
Bain again that we didn't get to
because we didn't need a tiebreaker
so I have a tiebreaker
and this one all three of you
are going to know it so we'll see
we'll see who jumps in the quickest
okay you ready
what are you looking at
butthead
who said that which feeling said that
you might not know the actor's name
what are you looking at
butthead I'm going to make like a tree
get out of here.
Oh, Biff, Biff and Back to the Future.
Biff from Back to the Future, that's right.
That's good.
It is funny that there are two
kind of cultural phenomenons
that, you know, throw around the word butthead.
I thought Bivis.
You know, but I guess Back to the Future
was slightly before
Bivis and Butthead came along.
But anyway, thank you for
being here today, everybody.
One more time
for all of my guests.
My respectful guests, Adam Caden Holland, Jacob Rupp.
Matt Cobos.
Cobos is in the host.
And thank you to Dan McAwee Underbara.
I'm huge.
I love the DCU.
And let's do this again sometime.
What do you say, everybody?
All right.
Get ready with the end theme.
As always, the obvious one is the shithead.
Now it's time for Doug to watch another talkie.
Eyes of Gold is viewing prowess makes him cocky.
There's no room in his heart.
