Starting point is 00:01:24 which doesn't change it that much, I don't think. But starting us off, phoning it in. I'm going to say that about everybody, because that's what we're all doing. Phoning it in from the Bay Area of California is Chad Opitz. Hey, Chad. How's it going, Doug? It's pretty good. I hear that you're laying on the floor like a child. I am, like I'm coloring in a dinosaur book or something. I wish, you know, if you could take a picture of how you look while you're doing that, send it to me. I'll try. I guess they can imagine it because you're so you're so childlike in general
Starting point is 00:02:05 i've got a real whimsy to me yeah you have the haircut of the child in the shining and you're always you're always talking with one of your fingers yeah and isn't there a scene in that movie where he's drawing yeah he's coloring oh yeah you know he's laying on the floor coloring in that big gigantic hotel taking a break from riding around on his big wheel what a life he leads oh my god i am currently in austin texas for an event uh film festival i go to every year called fantastic fest and uh the theater in austin where this is taking place the alamo draft house uh the on lamar is uh when you go through the first uh hallway to go to where all the theaters are uh it's like you're in the hallway of the uh overlook hotel there's a like
Starting point is 00:03:03 a door that's been you been smashed through with an axe and then there's the little twin girls. They project them at the end of the hallway and they appear and disappear. There's a hot lady that turns into an old lady? No, they don't have that.
Starting point is 00:03:19 They don't go that far with it. Terrific guess, Justin. didn't go that far with it but uh terrific guest justin um also joining us today uh oh so anyway chad how's how's san francisco treating you pretty good not bad yeah all right that's all i needed to know excellent i i'm gonna point out where everybody is today Just because it really is interesting How we're all
Starting point is 00:03:48 I'm in Austin, you're in the Bay Area Joining us from the Cincinnati area It's Jeff Tate Tate, Tate Hey, hello everybody What's up? Hey Does anybody ever call you Tater?
Starting point is 00:04:04 Sure They do? Sometimes Does anybody ever call you Tater? Sure They do? Sometimes It was a lot more 20 years ago I had a lot more When Ron White first broke out Now it's all about Ron White He's the only Tater
Starting point is 00:04:19 He's going to retire with it Yeah He's retired I guess Which you know you think stand-up comedy be one thing you don't really have to retire from as long as you can still talk yeah i mean he still does uh sets around austin maybe you'll see him oh he does he just goes out and like just performs pro bono i mean basically i guess i can't imagine that us that he's really interested in spot pay somebody should go in there and try to scoop up his money he's probably got a good tab at some of the clubs he's got he's got six envelopes with 40 checks in each one of them yeah exactly and exactly. And that's, that's probably, that sounds a little, a little high.
Starting point is 00:05:10 Probably a little smaller than that. But thanks for joining us today, Jeff. Are you, you got a gig somewhere in the Cincinnati area? Cause I know you've been sitting in Portland. Yeah. I'm in the comedy off broadway tomorrow and saturday uh where's that oh lexington i'm sorry oh lexington oh yeah that's that's just a little over an hour away so yeah i came here early just drive over there yeah Yeah. That's a fun club.
Starting point is 00:05:45 The last time I recorded an album, you know, it's like, stop doing that. The last one I recorded was, I think you were even there, and it was, I think it was like 2017 at that club in Lexington, and we just called the album The Date in Lexington for anybody interested in trying to find that. I remember that. That was fun.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Yeah, it was a good time. So say hello to that dude for me. And anybody else that shows up going, I saw you when you were here with Doug Bassett. Our returning champ today. Words I never thought I'd say about this man. It's Justin Thompson.
Starting point is 00:06:31 Hey, Justin. Hey, what's up? Yeah, I got a real underdog type spirit, you know, with me right now. You really do. And how has it felt being a champion for, you know, it's been a few days now. It's crazy. I go out on the street. Chicks are yelling at me. I'm signing tits. It's wild.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Well, I'm sorry to say your reign might end today. But you never know. You never know. You know, I'm not familiar with Chad, but I know Jeff is a pretty good competitor at whatever it is you got planned for us yeah jeff's real good at this silly shit and um and uh chad's not he's no uh chopped liver as they say which i don't understand why they'd say you know uh you know that expression. Can anybody explain it? Not at all. What am I, chopped liver? What do you think of chopped liver?
Starting point is 00:07:30 I think it was one of the first things that everybody knew that was bad. Why is it chopped? When it's unchopped, it's better? I have to imagine. Is it worse? Why isn't the expression expression what do you think i am a greasy slimy liver yeah they need it they need it they definitely need to change it up it
Starting point is 00:07:52 should be like what do you think i am asparagus pea or something like that yeah that really don't get me started about asparagus pea because uh the years ago when I was mentioning somebody's Twitter handle on this show I called them I said this person's Twitter name is Asparagus and I just I pronounced the P and then it wasn't until I met the man
Starting point is 00:08:19 that he said no my name is Asparagus P oh lordy Asparagus Asparagus P. Oh, lordy. Asparagus. Asparagus. He should have capitalized the P so you know it's a different thing. You know what, Jeff? He did.
Starting point is 00:08:36 Oh. Okay. I still didn't pick up on it. I really thought it was first name Asparagus, last initial P. Thank you, all of you, for being here today. And before we play some games, I'd like each of you to recommend one movie for our listeners to either check out or disregard based on your personalities and your descriptions of the films. Starting with Chad Opitz.
Starting point is 00:09:11 What have you got for us? Do you have anything you can recommend? Yeah, I watched one a few nights ago. Good time for the Halloween season coming up called Cobweb. Oh, I like it. It's called Cobweb? Cobweb i like it it's called cobweb cobweb and it's about this kid whose parents are uh mysterious and creepy it kind of like have you ever seen the movie parents uh the randy quaid
Starting point is 00:09:34 movie it's got a little bit of that but it's a bit less it's a little bit more serious i guess it almost feels like a like a tales from the crypt episode in a way um the the like the family has this big pumpkin patch in the backyard for absolutely no reason just because it's like halloweeny and uh there's something in the walls of the house and the kids trying to figure out like if the parents like have somebody in there like what's going on so there's kind of a mystery element to it and uh the visuals are really good i i'd definitely recommend it for this time of year for sure you say this uh is a fairly recent film it came out in the summertime which seems like a weird move but yeah it came out a few months ago i think
Starting point is 00:10:16 yeah well that's the thing about horror movies is that they're you know they can come out year round but people start to get a little weirded out by the idea of it in August and September because it's just like, well, couldn't you just wait a month or two for the whole scary season? But then you've got a glut of horror movies that have to compete with each other, so it's real tricky. But I learned the other night,
Starting point is 00:10:43 playing in a game show- style format thing during Fantastic Fest that the top three months to release a horror movie are. Now, I hope I don't fuck this up. October, obviously, is number one. uh october obviously is number one but number two is uh december or no wait no number two is february number three is december and uh you know and i figured out on the spot that february would be a big month because you know uh that one date uh valentine's day is you know of course there has to be a horror movie out so that couples can go do that oh yeah absolutely you know and then christmas time it's just like it's such a happy time that of course there's going to be counter programming and then
Starting point is 00:11:38 there's also going to be just you know movies with the word slay in them you know absolutely there are a lot of like holiday type horror flicks. Oh my god. They just keep coming out of them. My friend Brian Posehn is in one called Uncle Nick. Yeah that was really good. Yeah. But this cobweb I've never even heard of it.
Starting point is 00:11:57 There's also an exciting development in the movie. Where the bully of the young kid. The bully is played by a brand new Busey. Gary Busey has like a 10-year-old kid in the movie who just looks like him. Oh, that's reason enough to not watch right there. A new Busey just dropped, baby. Wow. So it's like just a little kid who looks like he can't keep his teeth in his mouth?
Starting point is 00:12:22 Yeah, it's crazy. It's wild, man. And I thought it was initially, I thought it was like Jake Busecey's kid but no it's gary bucey's son does he like hoagies like uh like his dad in point break oh man he better he's gonna be chomping on it he's wearing a hawaiian shirt the whole flick yelling at keanu wait keanu's cobweb no he's not I wish he wasn't he would have been a nice addition alright Jeff Tate what do you got for us what do you want to recommend
Starting point is 00:12:51 I want to recommend The Imposters what's that it's that it's from the late 90s and it is the second movie that Stanley Tucci directed. It's the one with Oliver Platt.
Starting point is 00:13:10 Just two. It's just the big night and then the Impostors. It's a Tucci joint. Stanley Tucci and Oliver Platt are like bad stage actors who make somebody mad and then have to hide on a boat
Starting point is 00:13:26 and they get mistaken for the I really enjoy it it's delightful what do they get mistaken for? I think other actors like better actors oh okay so that's why they're imposters
Starting point is 00:13:41 it makes perfect sense yeah it's very fun and it's just the whole it's very it's very fun and it's just the whole thing's on a boat single location i like 90 of it's on the boat maybe 95 the very beginning is on land and then you see there's the thing happened that makes them hide and then they're just on the boat for the rest of the time okay because you know i've been learning more and more about the you know um uh the single location thing is uh obviously um kind of a popular thing to do during the pandemic there was a lot of movies that just take place in one place but now it's uh i think it's fun to uh
Starting point is 00:14:21 try to think of movies that uh you know, only have one location. Maybe that'll be a game that we will play someday. All right. Justin, what do you have? What do you got this time? What would you like to recommend? I would like to recommend a documentary. Hands on a Hard Body.
Starting point is 00:14:41 The documentary. Mm hmm. Yep. It's a documentary from the mid-'90s about a contest put on by a radio station at a car dealership where everyone keeps their hands on a truck to try and win it. Yeah. And it's bananas. It's great. It's the best.
Starting point is 00:14:57 I watched this again recently, and it's something I'm telling everybody about. It's wild. There's twists. There's turns. There's an emotional arc. But the subjects are all these really ridiculous southern folks who just show up like, yep, I'm gonna win that truck. It's amazing.
Starting point is 00:15:16 And I don't know. I feel like everyone should watch it. It's hilarious. And then the guy who had won it before is a central character in it. And he's hilarious. And then the guy who had won it before is like a central character in it. And he's like this, you know, kind of cowboy philosopher type. And you can watch it online for free legally, not on one of the mainstreaming services. If you Google Hands on a Hard Body, the documentary, it'll be like the third or fourth link.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Yeah, and it's like set in like 95 or. or yeah a couple of dirty things will probably come up first with that title but then you'll get to it and i i saw it you know back when it came out i don't even know how do you know how old it is um i think it came out in 97 i i'm looking at the wikipedia page okay don't look things up while we're doing the show all right so nothing else i just this movie i wanted to get the details right now we know how you won last time no no no i didn't look at it i looked at it i am not a cheat how dare you besmirch my character in such a demeaning manner um Oh, did you know they adapted into a stage musical, Doug? I did. I was going to drop that news on you
Starting point is 00:16:28 because what a weird thing to turn into a musical. But the music kind of had a country feel to it. And the stage show, one of the actors with his hand on the car, or maybe he played the other guy. I don't know. But one of them was the the great uh keith carradine um because he's a good singer and but he has that like twangy kind of he's good at that kind of stuff but what yeah it's you know i've been watching uh you know over the years these like competitions they do on reality shows like Survivor and Big Brother, where they make somebody stand or touch something, you know, for a long time.
Starting point is 00:17:12 And whoever lasts the longest wins, you know, and it goes like, you know, 20 hours or some shit like that. But do you recall how long the hands on a hard body contest, how long it took before there was a winner? It goes into multiple days like more than like two full days um yeah and they have to continually just touch this truck and the other thing is you have to you know the people don't have to just stand there quietly they can stand there and talk shit if they want you know and be weird given like a five minute break every hour to like piss and stretch their legs okay yeah like it's you know they do get a small break but they still you know do it like over 24 hours and then it just gets really ridiculous it's
Starting point is 00:17:58 crazy and uh i do recommend it as well um but i am interested in Cobweb and The Impostors. I think this is a good selection. I doubt there's any person listening right now that's seen all three of these movies. If there is, reach out to me, and I will give you a special prize. It's a certificate that I'll draw myself that says you saw three movies yeah put that on your resume
Starting point is 00:18:31 I got ahead of myself as soon as I offered a prize I was like I gotta offer a shitty prize so no one even buys one but thanks for all those recommendations and you know what I I'm going to recommend a movie. But after the break, we'll be right back. But it's going to be folded into this first game we're going to play because I'm currently, as I said, in Austin, Texas for Fantastic Fest.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Today's the last day. I'm going to the closing night party tonight. And they do weird stuff at these closing night parties at Fantastic Fest. This year is no exception. I've been asked if I want to participate in a thing where they draw some of your blood and then make it into sausage and then you eat it. Oh. What?
Starting point is 00:19:34 Right? Doesn't that sound absolutely horrible? No, that's not your answer. All you said was you were asked to do it. Did you agree to do it? No. I said I said thanks, i said thanks but no thanks and then the person laughed was this a promo was it a promo for one of the movies why
Starting point is 00:19:53 would they do that no because the guy that runs uh fantastic fest the guy who dreamed it up uh his name's tim league and he's he also was the founder of Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Chain. And he just has crazy ideas all the time. Like, I didn't participate in this either, but the first day of the festival, a bunch of people went out to a field with shotguns and shot at things that when you hit them, they would actually explode. Okay. Yeah, so they'd make these little explosions just if you hit the target. He's always up to stuff like that. He's always got crazy things he's doing.
Starting point is 00:20:34 I'll be there tonight and maybe witness somebody else do it or something, but I just don't even get how they can turn your blood into a sausage that you can eat. don't even get how they can turn your blood into a sausage that you can eat and someone told me today that if someone if you make your own blood sausage of your own blood and you and someone that's not you eats it then it's illegal what what what a weird law you can only eat you can only eat your own blood okay wow well but they've got to be mixing it with pork or something, right? What? They've got to be, sorry to step on your joke, but they've got to be mixing it with pork or something, right?
Starting point is 00:21:13 It's not just blood sausage. Yeah, they do something with it. I guess that's what blood sausage is, is when you normally get it. It's maybe the blood of the animals involved or something. But I mean, I don't, I don't, you know, I, what I know about sausage, you could write it on the size of a side of one wiener. That should be what they do. They should do that instead of doing the blood sausage thing.
Starting point is 00:21:42 So anyway, that was a fun sidebar but my point is that uh i'm at this festival and they show lots of uh fun uh movies it's a genre festival so all the movies tend to be science fiction fantasy or horror or a mix thereof and lots of uh you know disgusting things this year i've been pretty lucky i haven't seen anything uh too gross nothing that's uh freaked me out too much but also last night they showed saw 10 and i didn't uh i didn't go to that because i'm not a i've only seen one saw movie have you guys seen any saw movies i've never seen saw i saw the first three or four yeah yeah you really you were in it for a while and then dipped yeah not my thing no i mean that's the thing is i the first one sounded like i was like oh that doesn't sound appealing to me
Starting point is 00:22:41 carrie ellis and someone sawing off their own thing no thanks and then i don't need i don't need to see uh prince what's his name for princess bride do that and then um uh i saw saw two i got tricked into seeing well not tricked into it i just went and uh like on a date or something and and um in that one there's somebody gets like a drill in their head while you know like while they're awake they get like somebody takes a power drill and puts it in their brain like that's the most disgusting part of that one and so then i was done i'd never look back not even chris rock could get me to see that last one spiral. But now this new one, Jigsaw, that character, I think died in one of the movies.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Now he's back for some reason. So maybe it's a prequel or he's a ghost. But people, the buzz here at the festival is that it has the most disgusting, it has one scene in it that's the most disgusting scene of any Saw movie. So now I'm extra out. I'm definitely not going to see it.
Starting point is 00:23:47 But this morning, because, you know, they show movies all day. So this morning before doing the show today, I went and saw a movie called Eileen, and it stars Anne Hathaway and Thomasin McKenzie. And I loved it. It's really good. It's's a period piece which both of those actresses are great at and um it just really has some surprising twists and brings it all home in a mere 97 minutes um so uh even leonard malton can't say it was too long. So inspired by seeing that movie today, this game we're going to play is called Come On, Eileen.
Starting point is 00:24:32 Oh, yes. I'll say a quote from a movie. I'll say a quote from a movie in some sort of silly voice, and then you tell me if it was uttered by ann hathaway or thompson mckenzie or neither so it really is just basically a guessing game chad's gonna go first if he doesn't get it then jeff gets a shot and then jeff doesn't get it then justin gets a g point, and whenever somebody gets right, the next person will start us off. Are you ready, Chad? Yes.
Starting point is 00:25:11 Who said it? Hathaway, McKenzie, or neither? You really are an idiot. Oh, my God. I mean, that could be anybody. Right? You really are an idiot. Or neither.
Starting point is 00:25:24 It could be anybody or nobody. Hmm. Uh. Yeah. I'm going to go halfway on this one. You're going halfway? I can just see her saying that in my head.
Starting point is 00:25:39 Well, I'm out here on the road, so I don't have my sound effects, but I'll give you an idea of what it would sound like with my mouth. That is incorrect. Damn it. Incorrect. Incorrect. Damn. Jeff, is it...
Starting point is 00:25:55 Which one did you say, Chad? Pathway. That's incorrect. Jeff, is it McKenzie or neither? I'm going gonna say neither guess what justin what's that you're already winning oh incorrect what's your answer justin oh um thompson thompson mckenzie yeah yeah she's got a fun her first name does sound like a last name Oh, Thompson. Thompson McKenzie. Yeah, yeah. She's got a fun.
Starting point is 00:26:27 Her first name does sound like a last name. And she says that to the title character in Jojo Rabbit. There were lots of other quotes from that movie, but for some reason, it tends to always be about Nazis or Jewishness. So I thought that might be a little, make it a little too easy. All right, so Justin's on the board. We're back to Chad. What do you think of this? Who do you think this is?
Starting point is 00:26:55 Hathaway, McKenzie, or neither? I had a dream. My life would be so different from this hell I'm living. Ooh. Ooh, let me try it as Vincent Price. I had a dream. I can't do this. I had a dream my life would be so different from this hell I'm living.
Starting point is 00:27:26 That's Vincent Price's MLK impression. I'm going to go. That sounds like a line from Les Miserables. So I'm going Hathaway on this one. Dude, you fucking figured it out. That's right. It's what Hathaway sings as Fantine in Les Mis. If I had a sound effect, it would sound like
Starting point is 00:27:46 this. That's pretty good. You're on the board. Jeff, are you ready? Yes. You're a big Les Mis fan, right? Big. Big. I steal bread every day.
Starting point is 00:28:07 I like that you at least have a good reference. Yeah, my friends regularly tell me that I'm on my Jean Valjean bullshit. Dude, I'm always saying that about Jeff. Again with his Jean Valjean bullshit it's the craziest story that that lame is because
Starting point is 00:28:31 you know uh like dude gets caught stealing bread for it because his fan you know you know because he's starving or whatever and um you know and he gets thrown in jail and then he breaks out of jail and russell crowe is like i'm gonna fucking i'm gonna nip this in the bud and uh i'm gonna get this guy for escaping from jail then the guy uh starts you know becomes a titan of industry next thing you know he's like rich and has this big factory and uh that russell crowe shows up and he's like you look familiar but he had like a beard you know when he was when he was destitute and went to jail so then uh you know russell crowe doesn't figure out it's him and then it's you know back and forth through the movie, you know, it's. But the point is, eventually, Russell Crowe is so upset that he can't catch this bread thief that he kills himself.
Starting point is 00:29:32 Damn. Hello. Hello. Well, I mean, I definitely I definitely saw it, but some of this seems like news to me. Seems a little drastic, but who knows? He just throws himself off a building. And like in the stage show, it's really fun because the guy, it's off of a bridge and he just stands in the middle of a bridge and he raises his hands above his head. And then they just lift the bridge up really fast while he's standing there.
Starting point is 00:30:00 And it looks like he jumps off of it. But in the movie, Russell Crowe really, he really falls off a building and just takes a header. It's like one of those falls where, like in Titanic, when the guy hits the propeller on the way down. Oh, yeah, yeah. You know, he gets dinged. It's like, oh, there's this one lady that falls out of the building
Starting point is 00:30:22 in Towering Inferno. I think her name was Jennifer Jones. When she dies, when she falls out of the building, she does the sameno. I think her name was Jennifer Jones. When she dies, when she falls out of the building, she does the same thing. She doesn't just fall next to it. Her head dings it at one point. Why does this horrible thing have to be made more horrible? Why do they have to have a
Starting point is 00:30:37 head injury on the way down? Alright, so what's going on? Douglas Movies. Which podcast are we doing? Chad has one. Justin has one. Jeff is. Wait. Yeah, Jeff is up now. Yeah. Are you ready? Yeah. All right. I'm going to do this one as Marvin the Martian. I'm going to do this one as Marvin the Martian. Mackenzie, Hathaway, or neither. Peace has cost you your strength.
Starting point is 00:31:13 Victory has defeated you. That's Anne Hathaway. Incorrect. Ah, damn it. I thought I could trick you by sounding confident. correct. Ah, damn it. I thought I could trick you by sounding confident. No, I really do need to double check when you have that kind of confidence. I have to look down.
Starting point is 00:31:36 I thought I knew the answer until you said that so confidently. Justin, what do you think of your remaining choices, which are neither or Thomas and Mackenzie Alright so it's not cast away I'm gonna go with neither
Starting point is 00:31:51 Dude You did it That is correct That is Let me tell you the proper way That it should be said. Peace has cost you your strength. Victory has defeated you.
Starting point is 00:32:14 That's Bane from Dark Knight Rises. Oh, damn. Yeah. Man, I thought it was... That's the movie I thought it was from. I tricked you, Jeff. No, for my trick. I gave Catwoman one of Bane's lines.
Starting point is 00:32:29 And it fooled you. I fooled you. There's this guy named Greg Travis. He used to do stand-up comedy. He's an actor. He's like the sleazy guy in Showgirls, which is a funny sentence because who isn't sleazy in Showgirls? But he used to do stand-up comedy, and his ending bit was the same every night. And I was like the emcee, and he'd do this bit called The Punk Magician.
Starting point is 00:33:00 And he'd put on a fake mohawk and then do magic. It was like a punk rock guy doing magic you know so he'd do the he'd do the the voice and then he'd be like fuck you it's magic after every trick and um and it just reminded me that the way i was talking he'd just be like, I fooled you. It was just really, really rude because most magicians are usually like, you know, they're cocky but they're fairly polite about it. They act
Starting point is 00:33:34 humble, you know, they act like, you know. But this guy was really in people's faces about it. If we had to go to a tie, I was going to say a line to settle it. Your face looks really weird, granny. Does anybody recognize that?
Starting point is 00:33:53 That sounds like a Little Red Riding Hood thing. Yeah. Is that Hathaway too? Was she in something like that? Yeah, Hathaway is the voice of Little Red in a movie called Hoodwinked. Was that what it's from? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:11 Okay, hell yeah. Yeah. But that was just, you know, I was just saying that for fun. There's no beating Justin at this point. He won that game. And he gets to go first in our next game that's going to determine a winner today and we'll do that after this break we're back did you guys have a chance to get some snacks or touch a truck for a
Starting point is 00:34:36 few hours yes thank you for letting me do that i did both i touched i touched a snack truck for a few hours. Whoa. I touched a snack truck. I'm in a pretty cool neighborhood. Justin, let me ask you another question about hands on a hard body. Since you just watched it, and I don't remember if this happens or not, but I know they're allowed to have a hand on it, but they can switch hands as long as there is continuous. They can move from one hand to the other, but they just have to make sure they're continually
Starting point is 00:35:13 touching it with one or the other. Did anybody get disqualified because they fucked that up? They accidentally tried to do that, but the timing wasn't right? they fucked that up. They like accidentally tried to do that, but like didn't, the timing wasn't right. Um,
Starting point is 00:35:26 yeah, I don't want to give everything away, you know, teasing it for people who haven't seen it, but yeah, definitely. And they also have to wear gloves because they said, uh, the sweat and oils from their hands could damage the paint of the
Starting point is 00:35:38 truck. So I have to wear these uncomfortable gloves the whole time. And then they start taking off the gloves and having one glove on. And, uh, yeah, people slip up when they're like delirious after being up for like 48 hours how many people does it start out like 10 20 i think it's around 20 20 wow all right i might have people can stand around a small pickup truck yeah yeah and then uh you know hoping to go home with it and like i assume that some of them were not exactly rich and they really needed that truck yeah there's one guy's like well uh i'd rather have a truck than a car because a car you just
Starting point is 00:36:17 take your place but a truck can work you know you can haul shit you can help people move you can earn money with a truck i'm like oh man this guy's got a plan together yeah and you can also you can earn money with a car as it turns out too because you know you can put stuff in it yeah and you can give people right put your mind to it you know if you focus yeah this is this is long before a ride share like was an option like he couldn't just you know uh drive people around okay and it's like a small town in like texas you know yeah yeah so they need that truck so it's really it's really dramatic and a great great subject for a uh a documentary um but oh in case i wasn't clear about it though that movie eileen i was talking about earlier with Anne Hathaway.
Starting point is 00:37:05 She's great. She's so good in it. I think she might get like a, you know, might have some Oscar potential there. But, you know, she might meet a man named Oscar and settle down. But, yeah, I don't know. All right. Well, Jeff is probably tired of how poorly it's going for him today. I don't know. He might turn it around this next game.
Starting point is 00:37:33 It's true. He might. So in this next game, Justin's going to go first, and then we're going to go to Jeff and then to Chad, because we switch the order around when it's a new game. And we're going to play a little something that I call Purple Rain Man
Starting point is 00:37:49 Deluxe. This is a regular Purple Rain Man. This is a new version of it. We used to do Purple Rain Man, and still might at some point, where I say the third build people in a movie mashup title and then uh
Starting point is 00:38:07 the second build and then the first and then people jump in with the correct answer as soon as they know it but this is a slightly different take on that because i will tell justin the uh two actors names and then he gets a chance to guess just from the third billed people. And if he doesn't get it or passes because he has no idea, then it goes to Jeff and then to Chad. And so if none of you get it, then I tell you the second billed people
Starting point is 00:38:40 and you go through in order again. And then all the way up to the first build people and hopefully once i said the first build people somebody uh will definitely know it in each case but these are extremely difficult so nobody should feel bad if they uh can't figure one of these out uh figure one of these out. I'm going to feel like shit, Doug. Yeah, well, Justin, have you played this game before? No, but I really need this, Doug.
Starting point is 00:39:13 Okay. Just to give you an example, first build in the mashup title Purple Rain Man, for Purple Rain, it would be Prince, Rain Man for Purple Rain it would be Prince and for Rain Man it would be you know Dustin Hoffman so those would be the
Starting point is 00:39:32 top build people to end in the result Purple Rain Man just so you understand so in this deluxe version you're going to give me two third build names yeah and that's all you get but you get to guess without uh you know jeff jumping in and making you look uh foolish making me look like a dumbass uh all right
Starting point is 00:39:53 and then i guess the the mashup title all right just making sure we got it all clear yeah and uh you know on third on the third build pairs do not feel bad if you don't have any idea because you know third build people are i'm swinging for the they're just a menace either way third build pairs, do not feel bad if you don't have any idea because, you know, third build people are just a menace. Either way. Third build people are a menace and they should not be allowed. Okay. There should only be two characters in every movie. Here's your third.
Starting point is 00:40:18 And so. Whoever heard of a three hander. Yeah, exactly. But Jeff and Chad both, you know, just a reminder. Don't yell it out if you know it. It's just Justin first. Okay. Third bill, Justin, in this movie mashup title are Lionel Jeffries and Vincent Gardenia.
Starting point is 00:40:42 Okay, let's go to Jeff. Jeff, what do you think? Nope. Nope, Jeff doesn't know it, Chad. Nope, let's go to Jeff. Jeff, what do you think? Nope. Nope, Jeff doesn't know it, Chad. Nope, he doesn't know it. All right. Just had to get that out of the way. There's no way anybody was going to get it based off of that.
Starting point is 00:40:56 This only makes it slightly easier. Second build in these movies, along with Lionel Jeffries and Vincent Gardinia, the third build. Second build, Sally Ann Howes is in the first title and Robert De Niro. A second build Robert De Niro. That can't have happened very often. Is in the second movie. Justin, any... Want to make any attempt to guess?
Starting point is 00:41:29 Yeah, I want to guess. Alright, hold on. Alright, you're not... You weren't kidding. This is a really tough game. Oh, yeah. You shouldn't really... It's not likely anybody knows who Sally Ann Howes is. No. So, it's going to take that top name maybe to really get it going but you know that's the thing is you might have
Starting point is 00:41:52 an idea what the second title is but that you know it helps jeff will tell you you can piece it together sometimes but meet the parent traps yeah of course, Robert De Niro was in Meet the Parents, which would be the second title. So if Sally Ann Howes was in a movie called Dead Meat, then it would be Dead Meat, The Parents. But that's not the case. Jeff, do you have any idea? Children of a Lesser Godfather Part 2. Yeah, see, this is how Jeff plays.
Starting point is 00:42:31 He plays dirty and he plays fast, but that is not the correct answer. Wow. Dirty, fast, and wrong. That's my style. Yeah. Chad, do you have any idea man i don't know either the first
Starting point is 00:42:47 two like the lionel jeffries or sally in house i have no idea with that one um i also can't think of a movie that uh deniro and gardenia were in together so i'm okay i got nothing for this one yet all right let's go to Justin. He's going to get the full information now. He's going to drop it like it's hot. Yeah. First build are Dick Van Dyke and Michael Moriarty. Michael Moriarty?
Starting point is 00:43:23 Yeah. What the hell? I told you, this is a tough one. Wow. But it's fun to say, and it's fun to think about. Wow. Is it something like what? Mary Poppins, Sideman. I like it but no
Starting point is 00:43:50 Jeff have you figured it out no Chitty Chitty Bang Bang well fuck Bangelheart Bangelheart I like Bangelheart Wow, fuck. Vangel Heart. What's that? Oh, man. Vangel Heart.
Starting point is 00:44:09 I like Vangel Heart. Vangel Heart. No, that's incorrect, Chad. Man, I do have nothing. I wish I had. I had no idea what the hell either one of these movies are. Michael Moriarty is a pitcher and robert de niro is a catcher on a baseball team and they're buddies and robert de niro's kind of his character is kind of dumb and then he uh he gets a terminal illness uh and the movie is called Bang the Drum Slowly. Oh.
Starting point is 00:44:47 So the full title. Oh, wow. Chitty Bang Bang the Drum Slowly. Oh, man, that's great. Wow. All right. I almost said that. That's the thing.
Starting point is 00:45:00 It's the real tip of the tongue sometimes. Jeff wasn't even that far off. Yeah, I was thinking Chitty Chitty Bang Bang something, but yeah. Yeah, Jeff figured out thinking Chitty Chitty Bang Bang something, but yeah. Jeff figured out the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang part, but here we go. Here's the next round. Starting again with Justin.
Starting point is 00:45:16 Third build are Julie Harris and Adam Brody. Okay, Adam Brody. Okay. Adam Brody. All right. That's a good name. All right.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Hold on. Hold on. I'll pass. Okay. Jeff. I thought he was going to get it, so I forgot the names. Julie Harris and Adam Brody, third build. The Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
Starting point is 00:45:58 The Mr. and Mrs. Smith. That's incorrect. Chad? I don't even know who Julie Harris is. I'm screwed on this one, too. Right. Okay. Justin, here's your second build, people. Brian Brown and Angelina Jolie.
Starting point is 00:46:23 Okay. It's hard to think of a picture where Jolie's gonna be second. I feel like Jeff was getting close. Hold on. I were the two names for the first movie again. Julie Harris and Brian Brown. Can't say I'm familiar with their work. Couple of hacks. Not real A-listers, huh?
Starting point is 00:46:57 So I got nothing. Jeff? Gorillas in the Mr. and Mrs. Smith. That is correct. Wow. Yeah. That's a wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:12 Top build Sigourney Weaver and, of course, Brad Pitt. Gorillas in the Mr. and Mrs. Smith. That was great. Yeah. Jeff's on the board. I'm going to get it. Chad's up first on this next one. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:47:26 Yeah. It's important. It's important that you probably go back to character actor lessons. Yes. Because the names can be a little obscure, but I think you might know this first gentleman who is third build. His name he's been on Douglas movies and his name is Alan Tudyk.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Oh, yeah. And then third build in the other movie is a gentleman named Michael Berryman. Oh, man. You know him? I do know Michael Berryman. Okay, so... Oh, oh man what do you think third build okay
Starting point is 00:48:11 oh man uh uh damn i'm gonna pass okay i. I can't think of a proper mix. It's smart, too. I think strategically, you don't want to give away half the time. I have one idea. You give Jeff half of it, he might run away with the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:48:39 That's how I feel about my blood sausage. What if I agreed to eat the blood sausage with someone else's blood in it? I don't think the illegal part is like trick is that they I don't think it's illegal to trick somebody into eating your blood. I think it's just
Starting point is 00:48:59 an illegal activity in general. I mean, they got a lot of laws in Texas I'm not familiar with. Just always trying to control our bodies, huh? Yeah. Whose turn is it? I think it's Justin's. Yeah, it's Justin's.
Starting point is 00:49:20 Justin, did you get a chance to guess on this one? No. Alan Tudyx, and who was the other name? Michael Berryman. Justin, did you get a chance to guess on this one? No. All right. Alan, two dicks. And who was the other name? Michael Berry. Berry's man. Berry man. Michael Berry. Barry's man.
Starting point is 00:49:35 Uh-huh. Nothing. Nothing. Jeff. Rogue one for the money. Jeff likes to take a swing, but that is not the answer. So, Chad, you get the second build people now. This is a real opportunity for you.
Starting point is 00:50:01 They are Diego Luna and Louise Fletcher. Louise Fletcher. Oh. Wait a minute. Rogue One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest? That is correct! Yeah! Yeah!
Starting point is 00:50:22 Nicely done. Holy shit. Top build, of course, are Felicity Jones and good old Jack Nicholson in Rogue One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. So those kind of got a little easier as we went along.
Starting point is 00:50:38 I did an okay job with that, but now we have apologies to Justin. Hang on a second because we want to get your plugs and stuff and remind people that your name on your social handles is weird. Chad and Jeff are going to battle this one out for the win. And we're going to start with Jeff. And I think you'll get it right out of the win. And we're going to start with Jeff. And I think you'll get it
Starting point is 00:51:07 right out of the gate, but you never know. You never know. Well, god damn it. Yeah. We'll see. We'll see what happens. Third build. Luis Guzman and Martin Short. Whoa. Whoa and Martin Short. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:51:26 Whoa. Martin Short. Third build. Luis Guzman. Always third build. Always. Perpetually third build. Luis Guzman. Yeah. Shit.
Starting point is 00:51:45 No, I don't have a guess right now. Okay, Chad? I don't either. Okay, I'll give you the next names, Jeff. If this doesn't do it, I'm going to jump through the phone. I'm going to jump through the phone like Freddy Krueger. Second build, John Travolta and Chevy Chase
Starting point is 00:52:07 Travolta Okay Alright John Travolta and Luis Guzman Should be so much easier than it is right now Yeah what Right Figure out the
Starting point is 00:52:26 first word of the second movie right and that one has wait who's in the second movie chevy chase and martin shore oh yeah yeah yeah no okay you're right i know that i know which one i know that one um oh one. Ah, fuck. I don't know. No guess. God damn, dude. Chad? Again, I'm stuck on the first one.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Travolta, Guzman. I'm going to take a... God damn it. Oh, man. god damn it uh but oh man uh get short t3 amigos i don't know dude that's that's too much of a stretch dude i don't know they didn't they didn't do a get shorty movie where uh john travolta wouldn't get top billing i Man, I feel like such an idiot. That's okay. It's fun to be an idiot. Like Elsa said to Jojo Rabbit.
Starting point is 00:53:37 You really are an idiot. You're so fucking stupid, Jojo. All right. Are you ready for the big finish? Yeah. idiot. You're so fucking stupid, Jojo. Alright, Jeff, are you ready for the big finish? Yeah. It's gonna hit you like a lightning bolt.
