Starting point is 00:00:44 at the Improv in West Hollywood, California! We are recording this on Tuesday, October 17th, and you'll hear it a few days after that, or almost a week after that, so I hope things don't change so much in the world of cinema between now and then, that this episode doesn't make any sense. Did I say it's Tuesdayuesday october 17th 2023 kingsman the golden circle of friends with benefits a wonderful life as we know it could happen to you only live twice in a lifetime cop and a half nelson of Rambo, First Blood Part II for the Roadhouse Terminator II,

Starting point is 00:01:48 This is your first time. How'd you get talked into coming in here? Is there somebody yelling at people out on the street? Also, take as long as possible to get into your seat. That was tricky. You had to really wedge yourself in there. What's your name? Hey, Johnny. What brought you out here tonight? Is the other show sold out so you came over here?
Starting point is 00:02:12 Oh, that's nice. All right. He seen me do stand-up and he's like, what the hell is this? Which is like, that is the perfect follow-through. Like, what the hell is this? I'll just buy a ticket and get that question answered for me. So I hope you enjoy yourself tonight, Johnny. And thank you for, you know, taking a risk on this.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Because it is just a serious talk that I'm going to give. It's kind of I'm going in a different direction. No, I've got three terrific guests that are going to come out here in a moment, but before I do that, I'm going to do some Doug plugs. Doug Lowe's Movies is coming to Tacoma, Washington this weekend at the Tacoma Comedy Club at 420
Starting point is 00:02:56 with Sean Jordan and Jeff Tate, Tate, Tate, and to Cap City Comedy Club on October 25th with amazing guests. I don't even need to tell you. It's Austin, Texas. And I'm doing stand-up there as well at the Cap City Comedy Club on October
Starting point is 00:03:12 24th. For all of my dates and deets, go to douglasmovies.com That's douglasmovies.com Yeah! Caw-caw! Wallet! Shh! Ted Danson? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:28 Two people did it. That was amazing. That was like a great amount of people for Los Angeles. Here's the prize box. I brought this box that I've had for a while because it's a nice, decorative, scary-ish looking mansion of a box. And it says Blumhouse on the side because they sent it to me during Pando
Starting point is 00:03:49 to promote some of their movies. I think it says on the inside. So you get this beautiful box, perfect for this time of year. And then inside, you're not going to believe what's in here, a poster for Disney's Frozen. Not that lame-ass sequel.
Starting point is 00:04:06 This is the original Frozen. We got the poster. This is really cool. Somebody's going to be so excited to win this. This is a Firewire USB 2.0 enclosure. Yeah, I'd hang on to it myself if I had any idea what you're supposed to do with it. Here's another thing I don't know what to do with, but it's fun to have, I guess. I sort of re-condoed some of this stuff because I'm like, I like it, but I also don't need to have it.
Starting point is 00:04:40 It's sausage fingers! From everything ever there are all at once. They gave me these when I went to the premiere. They also gave out little stuffed raccoons. I'm keeping the raccoon. And then finally, somebody sent me, have you ever got something in the mail and you're like, they got your name right
Starting point is 00:04:59 and I think it even said Douglas movies or something on it. Somebody sent me a vinyl album that looks like this it's Donnie and Joe Emerson you know them? no way
Starting point is 00:05:14 it's good? did you send me this sir? is this from you? but they're good though? in a kitschy kind of way. Like they sound like kind of like a 70s teen group or something. Oh yeah, yeah. It says 1979 on here.
Starting point is 00:05:33 And it's called Dreamin' Wild. And I just, I really didn't understand why this person sent it to me and I'm not going to buy a phonograph to listen to it and go, oh, that's why. But I don't even know if that would help. It's got some great song titles.
Starting point is 00:05:48 Good Time, Give Me the Chance, Baby. A song called Baby. That's got to be good, right? Romantic, probably. All right. Or are these children just had a kid? All right, so that's all the stuff that somebody's going to win tonight. In other words,
Starting point is 00:06:07 just things that you probably might just throw right into the garbage outside the club, but I don't know. I never know the excitement level of the winner of the prize bag or box, but are you ready to get our guests out here to determine who's going to win this thing? All right.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Please continue that gracious and loving applause for Amy Miller, Guy Branum, and Steve Hernandez! Oh, yeah. Oh, that's what we should have done. There's always something that we forget. It's stools to put your drinks on. Oh, I'll just clutch it in my hand. You know what?
Starting point is 00:06:51 Nikki's on it. Oh, thanks, Nikki. Yeah, just one or two stools would be great because they all have drinks. These stools are great for fat people in general. Very comfortable. Not worried at all. Well, I was like, we need stools with backs because sometimes my guests need a nice
Starting point is 00:07:10 back support, but these particular ones aren't really into supporting your back, I've noticed. Not mine. But I think they dragged them over from the bar, and thank you all of you for being here. Are you drinking something, Steve?
Starting point is 00:07:26 No, not right now. I had a nice Diet Coke to the dome. And Jenny over there tried to refill it, but I'm trying to get some sleep tonight. You guys know
Starting point is 00:07:33 what I'm talking about. Yeah, don't get crazy, Steve, with the carbonation and the soda. All right, let's meet everybody individually and alphabetically
Starting point is 00:07:45 by first name. Ooh. Yeah, the twists and turns never stop coming on Doug Loves Movies. It's Amy Miller, everybody!
Starting point is 00:07:57 Thank you so much. How's it going, Amy? Pretty good. Happy anniversary of the big earthquake. What? Today? Yep.
Starting point is 00:08:07 October 17th. Of what year? 1989. 89? Uh-huh. You were here for that? I was in it. Really?
Starting point is 00:08:15 I was shaking around. Yeah. Wow. I was shook. I didn't even, I haven't kept track of the anniversary for a while now. I think of it every year. I used to send a gift every year to the earthquake. You don't even send me a card anymore.
Starting point is 00:08:30 We just had a pretty good one. Did you feel that, or were you out of town? Probably out of town. Yeah. The building I'm in had cracks. It looked like it did some damage, and then they just painted over them. Oh, yeah. I'm like, that seems safe.
Starting point is 00:08:43 That seems like the right thing to do. That paint will hold the building together. But thank you for. Oh, yeah. Like, that seems safe. That seems like the right thing to do. That paint will hold the building together. But thank you for being here, Amy. I'm delighted to be here. And you're running off to do a set
Starting point is 00:08:54 somewhere else tonight. I have to leave at 8.55. Okay, so Amy's got a hard out, everybody. And the show's supposed to end around there anyway, so it works perfectly. I like a nice
Starting point is 00:09:05 ticking clock. Cliffhanger. Makes it feel like a movie. Exactly. I watched The Blob today from 1958. Do you know how they decide to dispatch The Blob in the end of that movie? I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:09:22 I've only seen it once. Is it nuclear weapon? No. No, they do shoot at it a lot and go, I can't remember. I've only seen it once. Is it nuclear weapon? No. No, they do shoot at it a lot and go, this isn't working. They blast it into a bunch of pieces though, right? No, they figure out that it doesn't like the cold. The blob is like a cold weather pussy and
Starting point is 00:09:37 it creeps towards you but if you spray it with a fire extinguisher, it's like no, it's like a cat. The blob has the same personality as a cat. And so they figured that out, but then on a small, it's such a big blob that they can't just shoot it with, they can't just stand around
Starting point is 00:09:54 with a bunch of fire extinguishers. So they airlift the blob to the Arctic and then drop it. And it's seriously how the movie ends. And that sequence takes like 30 seconds. Like suddenly it's happening and then it's seriously how the movie ends and it takes that sequence takes like 30 seconds like suddenly it's happening and then there's like the end and a question mark at the end like maybe this arctic drop is you know maybe our operation arctic drop isn't really going to do the job but uh i've been watching act up during the flight at all he's fine in the air it's just
Starting point is 00:10:23 cargo it's just being dragged from below the plane. They didn't give it first class seats or nothing. Alright, so, that's what I was going to say, is I'm watching a horror movie, or an alleged scary movie, every day
Starting point is 00:10:40 for the entire month of October. Like, one a day, forcing myself to do it. And the blob was today's movie. So thanks for letting me talk about it. You're welcome. Because I was really, I was really, you know, in my feelings about it.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Also joining us tonight, it's Guy Branum! Yay! How are you? I'm doing well. You know, Doug, when we talk about global warming, so frequently we talk about the loss of our glaciers,
Starting point is 00:11:08 but we don't talk about the potential reanimation of the blob enough. You know? Maybe if we were discussing that, people would take carbon emissions more seriously. Yeah, I worry that someone listening to this, you know, that's on the far side of things, is going to go, like, that's going to be our new argument, is that we need the glaciers to melt.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Wait, no, because then that will release the blob. Yes, we need the glaciers. We need to stop global warming. Okay, to stop the blob. So the Maldives don't sink, and so the blob doesn't come back. I like it. It's a whole new approach that we can, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:41 it's the kind of thing that people can get behind now is absolute fantasy. But even if he's out of the ice, he's going to be cold in just the air in the Arctic. Right. No, it just can't be a good place. I don't know what happens, though. They just drop it, and then they say the end. So, like, I don't know if when it hits the ground in the Arctic, if it just absolutely disappears,
Starting point is 00:12:06 or if it just, you know, goes, ugh. It's chilly here. Yeah, if it just gets chilly, and it's just like a blob looking for a sweater. Just a little, just a light wrap of some kind. It's cold in the Arctic.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Alright. As a blob in a sweater today, I have regrets. It was like 90 degrees, but it's October. I wanted to wear it. Yeah, it should be cooler out. Let me ask you this. Let me ask you this, Guy Branum. We do mostly trivia about horror films, you know, or movies that are supposed to be scary during this month on this show,
Starting point is 00:12:47 but you're not a fan of that genre. No, and I consider it an insult and attack that you have invited me to multiple Doug Loves movies during October. Why would I want to be doing this? And finding out that you are watching a scary movie every day, yesterday I watched the Judy Holiday musical Bells Are Ringing.
Starting point is 00:13:07 And so I'm wondering if I owe it to the world to counteract your behaviors by watching an underrated 50s or 60s musical every day of the month just to say, hey, October's for everybody.
Starting point is 00:13:21 I love it. Because if you're not into Halloween, October's getting longer and longer. Like September 15th, the shit starts coming out. Oh, that fucking Thanksgiving movie. I'm like, fuck you for trying to make the scary movie window two months long. No, we need November for Academy Awards movies that won't do well. That's why there's so many Christmmasy thieved horror movies it's just because
Starting point is 00:13:46 they're money in the bank no matter when you put them out you know so just might as well make you know silent night deadly night etc also joining us tonight first time on the show that's right holy shit it's steve hernandez everybody It's Steve Hernandez, everybody. Great to be here. I've done your podcast with Amy. Yeah. And that's not a thing anymore, though, right? You can still find them. I pay for the storage because I'm an idiot. Well, you should like, you know,
Starting point is 00:14:18 I almost said when a celebrity that's been on dies, but more like whenever somebody does something of note that has been a guest on your show, it might be fun to just say, hey, that person was on the show once. Sure. I think there's a couple guests that have been cancelled by now. We could probably just... And during the
Starting point is 00:14:37 episodes that we did with them, they hinted at it too. Every time there's a major political event, it's always fun to go to the former twitter and just be like which of our colleagues has been radicalized it's also so funny to me that this guy who bought twitter and changed the name has to sit and listen to every newscast every you know every written report anytime somebody brings up X, they say formerly Twitter. Like every time.
Starting point is 00:15:06 Like how long is that going to go on for? I'm thinking probably years before people will drop the formerly Twitter part, which must drive him crazy. Let me ask you something, Doug. This has got to be the largest panel you've ever had. Per pound. I mean, there's no way.
Starting point is 00:15:23 If it was just me, then I would be a... Aside from that one WWE episode he did. Whenever you're talking about me and Guy together on the same... I'm just like, wow, this is... Think about it, and I really want you to think about it. There has been no bigger
Starting point is 00:15:39 set of guests before. Well, you know, Steph Tolev was going to be the third guest. Yeah. And she canceled today because she was feeling a little bloated. She was like,
Starting point is 00:15:52 I'm too big to come on. No, she had a, you know, she had flight issues. She got in, you know, she got back to L.A. too late.
Starting point is 00:16:01 So I said, Amy's one of the first people I told. And she was like, what about my podcast co-host, former podcast Steve Fernandez
Starting point is 00:16:12 and I said, if he can put on a Dodgers jersey and get down there. And 100 pounds. And 100 pounds. I'm glad guys here were both wearing shorts on stage. This is incredible. I mean, you know,
Starting point is 00:16:28 when you're heating yourself the whole year's summer. Tell that to the blog. Like if you get too cold, you can cut yourself open and sleep inside of yourself. When you start comedy, they say you can't wear shorts, but as long as Fluffy keeps selling out Dodger Stadium, I don't give a fuck comedy they say you can't wear shorts but as long as Fluffy keeps selling out
Starting point is 00:16:45 Dodger Stadium I don't give a fuck what they say also I just want to say there have 100% been times that I have gotten on stages
Starting point is 00:16:53 where I was like uh oh if you've performed at Ackbar like that stage I'm like it was not prepared to handle me
Starting point is 00:17:00 this thing was built for twinks but I have to say I trust the improv lab stage. Yeah. Yeah, it seems pretty sturdy. It's also not that much higher than everybody else.
Starting point is 00:17:11 So if it gave way, we'd just think it's another earthquake, probably. Stage is a stretch. Don't say earthquake today. Also, Amy, are you talking about the San Francisco earthquake from 89? Yes. Okay. I wasn't alive in 1906, guy.
Starting point is 00:17:27 I know, but also when you say the big one here, they think of the North. Northridge is what I was thinking. Yes. Not that bullshit. I'm talking about some real shit, okay? My own trauma. Like Candlestick Park was so shook they changed its name. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:44 To what? People were at a game during that earthquake, right? Yes. It was a World Series game. Yeah, yeah. The last earthquake we had here in L.A., I was doing this podcast over Zoom when it happened. Yes, it was like the hurricane was happening,
Starting point is 00:17:59 and there was an earthquake at the same time. And it was very exciting. Yeah, it was really. We were doing podcasting under the most intense conditions. You're so brave. Yeah. We really didn't stop because of an earthquake. We just kept going.
Starting point is 00:18:13 We were just like, well, we'll stop shaking. And there weren't a lot of aftershocks on that one. But anyway, listen to my other podcast, Doug Loves Earthquakes. Doug Loves Shifting Plates. But for now... If you could do the title strung together thing with earthquakes, I would be very impressed.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Right? There's only earthquake? Well, no. Like New Madride Hope. I don't know if there's ever been an earthquake in Idaho. I just remember the New Madride Earthquake. I'll stop this now. Well ever been an earthquake in Idaho. I just remember the New Madrid earthquake. All right, I'll stop this now. Well, what I'd like to do before we play our games tonight is ask everybody on the panel to each recommend one movie.
Starting point is 00:18:58 And I've been doing the horror genre, but also it could be something that's just scary to you for any reason like maybe there's no music in the movie or something like that uh you know it's not a musical but amy will start with you oh yeah i just re-watched wolf of snow hollow jim cummings movie i just love him i know he's been on this podcast with he has oh yeah, but it's like a fun comedy horror. It's not too scary for someone like me who can't handle a lot of that shit, but there's a couple gnarly moments.
Starting point is 00:19:32 I just love all of his movies so much, and him. He's great. Yeah, it's funny that in two of the movies, he's just a cop who's just crazy insecure. Yeah, he's just really wound up. It's pretty funny. Yeah, he's really really wound up. It's pretty funny. He's really good at that role. And our friend Ricky Lindholm is in that one.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Yeah, she's so good in it. I adore her as well. All right. It's called Wolf. I always fuck up the title. Of Snow Hollow. Of Snow Hollow. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Pretty sure. There's hollow in it. Yeah. And it's not Hollow Man. Or. Sleepy. Sleepy. there's hollow in it yeah and it's not hollow man or sleepy sleepy hollows scary in general let's just say it wouldn't want to live in one no no you don't why the fuck why are people nothing good ever in this day and age don't mess around with hollows. Unless it's all Hallow's Eve. Yeah, then it'd be a good place to stay. All right, moving on to Guy.
Starting point is 00:20:33 I'm very curious to see what you come up with. Well, I'm worried now that I'm going to steal from Steve because we saw the same movie this week. I saw Dicks the Musical, which is very, very funny. And these two guys from New York, their names are Aaron Jackson and Josh Sharp. And they had a musical at UCB. And then H24 turned it into a real show. And you're like, that's not a horror thing. But there are real elements of creature horror in there that are very fun.
Starting point is 00:21:04 And it's also an old-fashioned musical. And it was a good time. Am I right or wrong? It was a great time. Does any of it scare you? You scared of dicks? I'm not scared. There are not a lot of dicks.
Starting point is 00:21:15 It's dicks as in unpleasant people. Yes. Yeah, it's not penises. And they don't scare me, though I have to say that I have encountered dicks of a vainness level that I was just like worried. And that I have encountered dicks of a vainness level that I was just like, worried? And then I have
Starting point is 00:21:27 encountered dicks of a size where I was just like, uh-oh. You know? Yes, I do. Where am I going to put this? For how long? Going into the hollow. Do you need to pay rent? And for how long? Going into the hollow.
Starting point is 00:21:45 Do you have to pay rent? Well, also, just, does he have the blood to keep that thing afloat and also stay alive? Because the last thing I need is for him to, you know, like, faint from low blood pressure because, mid-fuck, you know? No, that's got gotta be a serious concern. Now you're on the hook for murder. There's some people that all the blood
Starting point is 00:22:11 shouldn't be rushing just in one spot. There's people out there that that's gonna be a bad thing. Hey, well, that's happening to me right now
Starting point is 00:22:18 and I'm living just fine. Yeah. It's a gusher. Yeah. yeah it's a gusher yeah uh all right steve oh anyway yeah let me just give my uh second approval of dicks the musical and uh and and it does does, it sounds like, why would that have a horror element? But it really does.
Starting point is 00:22:48 And it's really, it's cute and disturbing at the same time. It's really, but it's a very fun movie. Nathan Lane and Megan Mullally are there. If you're worried about if it sounds too gay. The heterosexual bona fides of Nathan Lane and Megan Mullally. It's true.
Starting point is 00:23:16 They do swim in those waters a lot in their respective careers. But Dix the Musical is an A24 production, and so it kind of fits in with how weird their movies are but also um they're not being struck against by sag after right now because they a24 happily pays uh the actors what they uh deserve or not even what they deserve just better than uh you know what's currently on the table.
Starting point is 00:23:51 So I can say on this podcast, go see Dicks in theaters on October 20th. It's just a New York and L.A. thing right now. Oh. Yeah. It's going to open wide. Just needs a little time. Just needs a few more days to get engorged. Guy's taking a long swig of his wine right now. This should really be Douglas Movies and Wine Club.
Starting point is 00:24:15 It's really a lot of wine drinkers tonight. All right, Steve, can you recommend a scary movie? One of my favorite scary movies that I try to show people, I don't know if anyone's seen it here. Hopefully you have, but it's Communion with Christopher Walken. Has anyone seen this movie? I have.
Starting point is 00:24:33 It's an alien home invasion movie. And it's truly frightening. When we were little, we used to rent it at the library all the time. And he doesn't realize it's a space, I mean, it's a bizarre movie. He's really tripped out too. It's based on a true story.
Starting point is 00:24:49 I'm making quotation marks. But the parts where he's actually getting abducted by the aliens are truly bizarre and freaky. I just showed it to my pregnant wife. She loved it. What are you trying to induce or something?
Starting point is 00:25:08 She's going through an alien invasion you've seen it doug uh yes but i you know i just remember it you know freaky is a good word i just remember being like kind of weird christopher walken energy uh and i do remember that that note that it was supposedly a true thing which is always fun when there's a movie like that and they're trying to tell you it's real. There's this crazy part where he's like, he's like, I know you're there, I know you're there and he's like freaking out
Starting point is 00:25:35 and then you see this alien head just slowly peek around the corner and it looks very fake but it looks like those real alien heads you see in the sketches and so especially being little, around the corner. And it looks very fake, but it looks like those real alien heads you see in the sketches. And so, especially being little,
Starting point is 00:25:48 I was like, I hope this happens to me. That'd be pretty cool. He was like, I know you're there. Stop already. Come out. Hello. Leave me alone. I don't need this. Stop already. Come out. Alone.
Starting point is 00:26:06 Leave me alone. I don't need this. Well, all right. Dick's Communion and Wolf of Snow Hollow. Very unconventional, but it works. It works for me. Check out those and other movies wherever you get your movies. We're going to go to our first commercial break.
Starting point is 00:26:33 We're going to determine during the break who my guests are playing for and we'll be right back. All right. That's a shame that happened during the commercial break. That was really, that was good stuff. We're back! Yay! Definitely come back to these live shows
Starting point is 00:27:08 and anybody listening that's in the L.A. area, or anywhere that I travel to with the show, because when you see it live, the commercial break was so funny. All of my guests were so funny, and nobody got to hear it but us. Are you ready to play some games? Let's do it. This first game is one i just introduced recently because of the you know the special month we're in right now october this game
Starting point is 00:27:34 is called It's called Olivia Rodrigo to Hell. Okay, you got him back a little bit. Olivia Rodrigo to Hell. Here's how the game works. I'm going to start with Amy. I'm going to say a title. You tell me if it's the title of an Olivia Rodrigo song, a horror movie, or both.
Starting point is 00:28:05 Okay. If you miss it, Steve gets the chance to pick up a point with the two remaining options. If he misses, Guy would get the gimme point because he would know
Starting point is 00:28:15 obviously what the answer is. Every time somebody gets right, the next person to go first is the next person in line. First to two points wins. Are you ready, Amy? I'm ready, Doug. Okay, good, because we've got to get you out of here on time.
Starting point is 00:28:30 We don't have time to discuss this. Rodrigo, horror or both? Brutal. Both. Both is correct. Amy Miller is on the board. Nice work. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Did you really know that, or is that a guess? Why do I have to tell you? Did you... I apologize for prying. I'm such a nosy pants. Gotta know everything all the time. Why did you do that? No, I just thought maybe you just had heard that song or something.
Starting point is 00:29:17 It was a guess, but it all made sense. Yeah, it did. You did a great job. Thanks. And now we go to guys up next I know it doesn't seem like he should be but trust me
Starting point is 00:29:32 and Rodrigo movie or both gross bless you I'm going to say horror movie. Somebody at the bar knows
Starting point is 00:29:53 that that's not correct. That is incorrect. Now we go to Steve. Rodrigo. Amy. it's both Amy Miller wins the game yeah Johnny you know what I don't like about this I think they're almost all movies right
Starting point is 00:30:19 what's that almost every movie has a name right almost every movie it's hard to market them without them are you saying What's that? Almost every movie has a name, right? Almost every movie. It's hard to market them without them. Are you saying every single word there's a movie? There's a movie about it. A movie has a lot of songs. Yeah, and it's funny.
Starting point is 00:30:36 There are still expressions out there that haven't been made into a movie yet. Like, you know, hey, watch your head. That hasn't been made into a movie yet. Like, you know, hey, watch your head. That hasn't been made into a movie yet. And also, there are some phrases where it isn't a horror movie. Like, we haven't seen a grumpier old men horror movie yet.
Starting point is 00:30:54 But eventually. Oh, that is a great idea though. But there is this Olivia Rodrigo song. Yes. Grumpier old men. It's great. It's about 25 year old men. Olivia Rodrigo's old men. It's great. It's about 25 year old men. Olivia Rodriguez Young. She's really young.
Starting point is 00:31:12 That's just a fun... I realize that her titles do tend to be like movie titles, but that's another example. One of her biggest hits is called Driver's License, and I don't think that's a movie yet, but there is License to Drive with the Corys, which would be a great horror movie recommendation. I can't think that's a movie yet but there is license to drive with Cory's which would be a great horror movie recommendation
Starting point is 00:31:28 I can't believe what was going on behind the scenes was a horror movie it's always too soon when it comes to Cory Haim it'll never there'll never be enough time gone by but congratulations Amy you know what you win you know what you won right? to Corey Haim. There'll never be enough time gone by. But congratulations, Amy.
Starting point is 00:31:45 You know what you win. You know what you won, right? I go first in the next game. That is right. She gets to go first in our next game. That's going to straighten everything out because then we'll go to Steve and then to Guy.
Starting point is 00:31:59 And Guy, I think you're going to like this game. I think everybody has a chance. It's a game that I call the little search engine that could. I type a word into the search engine on IMDB, the Internet Movie Database. And then I look at the results and i wrote down the top 10 movies is there a conversation happening in this room i thought so uh and then i'm sorry i'm too high to not get distracted by that there's so many places to have a conversation I'm too high to not get distracted by that.
Starting point is 00:32:47 There's so many places to have a conversation. I wrote down the top ten times, and this is according to the IMDB algorithm. So Amy's going to go first. She's going to guess a movie that has this word in the title. If it's the number one movie, she gets ten points. If it's the 10th movie on the list she gets one point and then all the various points in between we're going to go around and each of you are going to get three guesses so you're each going to have three attempts here to try to get a title that is in this top 10. Amy. The word.
Starting point is 00:33:26 And of course by all means order drinks. I'm not trying to tell you don't talk to order drinks. If that's what was happening. The word Amy. Is Halloween. Okay. So your job. Wait so we get three guesses each?
Starting point is 00:33:44 Yeah but one at a time.'ll guess and steve will guess and guy and we'll go back through so it might help people to figure out what what else might be on the list okay well i know what you're thinking johnny and don't give me any of your bullshit um but i'm just gonna say halloween because you would think that, but it's probably not the number one one. And it's really annoying, but I'm saying it. Okay. Good answer. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:34:12 Correct answer. But now you have to pick. Yeah. Are you talking about Halloween from 2018, 2007, or 1978? Exactly. Which one? Good point. No, I was in my mind and my heart talking about the original.
Starting point is 00:34:38 The very first original John Carpenter's Halloween filmed mere blocks from here. And that is the number one movie on the list. Amy is on the board with 10 whopping points. But now we go to Steve. You got to start building from here, Steve. What do you think? Okay, so...
Starting point is 00:35:03 It's Halloween. And what were the years on those? Hey, it's not up to me to say. It's your decision. All right, it's... No, I'll tell you. Yeah. 2018 or 2007?
Starting point is 00:35:21 2018. You're going with 18? Yeah. Nine points. It's going with 18. Yeah. Nine points. It's number two. So stupid. It's really dumb. I tried to tell you anybody can win this game.
Starting point is 00:35:37 If you know how to say the word Halloween, points could be yours, but now we go to Guy Branum Halloween H20 people are stunned literal gas by this wild shocking
Starting point is 00:35:55 yeah and I'm sorry to say it did not make the list it's gotta be the other one you still have a chance the list. It's gotta be the other one. You still have a chance. What's gotta be the other one?
Starting point is 00:36:13 Is it my turn? It could have not made the list, the other one. Yeah, sure. I mean, you know, three Halloweens. How many Halloweens
Starting point is 00:36:19 do we need that are just called Halloween? Is it my turn? Yes. Halloween 2007. That is correct. That is number three.
Starting point is 00:36:41 So you picked up an additional eight points there, Amy. But this lead is not insurmountable. It's just very close to insurmountable. But Steve's got nine already, so he could really do some business here. So, so far we have Halloween three times and Halloween H2O. Have you thought of another movie that has the word Halloween in it?
Starting point is 00:37:12 Who is it, my turn or your guy? My turn? Halloween 2. Okay, is that from 2009 or 1981? 1981. Alright, that's number five on the list.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Wait a second, wait a second. Wait a second, does he have full title? Yeah. It's just Halloween 2, twice. Okay. Isn't that ridiculous? Yeah. I thought Halloween 2 was Season of the Witch. One was I, I, and the other one is a 2,
Starting point is 00:37:44 but it's still out loud, Halloween 2. Yeah, and Season of the witch one was I I and the other one is a 2 but it's still out loud Halloween 2 yeah season of the witch was 3 so so you got 6 more points Steve you got a shot here but then there's Guy I would like Halloween 3
Starting point is 00:38:01 season of the witch it's like I couldn't be more proud of you that you know the titles of these movies while not being a fan. But that one did not make the list. Why are you fucking with the algorithm just for comedy's sake, Doug? This is cruel.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Oh, man. All right. I mean, I'll be impressed if you go three rounds of saying actual Halloween movies. And not saying, that should be the game. Name a Halloween movie that's not on the top ten. Because you're great at that. You're really destroying that particular game.
Starting point is 00:38:52 But we all know that it's the last game that really matters tonight. And we still gotta finish this one. Amy? Halloween 2. From 2009. That is number eight on the list! Three more points for Amy.
Starting point is 00:39:14 I've never won this easily, Donnie. A total of 21 for Amy. Steve's got 15, so he needs six or better. So Steve, you have to tell me the movie with the word Halloween in the title that finished fourth on this list to catch up to Amy. What do you think?
Starting point is 00:39:39 God damn is right. All right. is right. Any movie that we haven't said already that has Halloween in the title. What was that? I'm sorry. You can't ask questions
Starting point is 00:39:57 about what the answer might be. I want to look to my wife right now. You can't. We could do an edition of the show that way. One time Tig Notaro had her girlfriend give her the answers. The word Halloween, nobody answer, but... Everyone just sit there and look at him while he asks this question.
Starting point is 00:40:22 Can you guys think of another movie with the name Halloween? I bet they can. Okay, nobody's even nodding their head or anything like that. Well, because they know better. Okay. Because they know you're going to have a follow-up question. Yes, I do. Well, what is it? Nothing? I really, yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:44 For movies? Yeah, movies. nothing i got i really uh yeah for movies yeah movies did that adam sandler one that came out last year did that have halloween in the title i bet it did but it doesn't feel like you're gonna come up with it you might have helped your uh your competitor sitting next to you. I don't know. I have nothing. Well, you made a valiant effort because you thought about it. Yes, yeah, I tried really hard.
Starting point is 00:41:14 That's the most you can do. Yeah. Guy, do you want to throw salt in his wound and tell him what that movie's called? Oh, no. I don't know what the name of the movie is. Was there something called Halloween Town? There should be. Maybe it's like
Starting point is 00:41:29 one of those movies they show on... I think it's like a Disney Channel movie. One of those 31 Days of Halloween deals or something. Yeah. That's not on the list. Congratulations, Amy Miller! You won that game! I thought I got one more guess.
Starting point is 00:41:45 You've had three guesses. How many do you want out of three? Is it Hobie's Halloween? No. It's Hubie's Halloween. Hubie's Halloween. That's really on there? Wait, who is Hubie?
Starting point is 00:41:57 That's what you were talking about, right? That's what Steve was talking about. Let me go through the list for you and tell you what you missed out on. Number 10 on the list is Halloween 4. Yeah. Yes. Steve. But that is a tricky one because you do have to have the full correct title,
Starting point is 00:42:14 and that one is called The Return of Michael Myers. Yeah. And then number 9 was Halloween Resurrection. And then number 7 is this more recent thing called Halloween Resurrection. And then number seven is this more recent thing called Halloween Kills. Mmm, indeed. And number six
Starting point is 00:42:33 is the Adam Sandler Halloween classic Yubi Halloween. God. Yeah, you were all over it. You had it. I think it even takes place in Halloween Town. You were both right.
Starting point is 00:42:49 I just can't believe Halloween 3 wasn't on the list. It doesn't make any sense. It's too bad there isn't a movie called A Nightmare After Halloween and Before Christmas. But number four, the one that could have got you there if you'd have thought of it is another one that just happened. The recent Jamie Lee Curtis trilogy, Halloween Ends.
Starting point is 00:43:13 Halloween Ends was fourth. It would have been worth seven points. But congratulations again to Amy. We've got one more game to play. And we're going to do it after this break. We'll be right back. We're back.
Starting point is 00:43:32 Yay! All right, so Amy took down that game as well, so she gets to go first in our big finishing game and then we'll swap the order around again Steve so it'll go Amy, Guy and then you and this is a game called Super Last
Starting point is 00:43:57 Person Standing Scream Queen Edition Whoa yes So Steve this is a game that Amy and Guy have played before, where, and I play along in this game, I play too, we take turns naming movies by a particular actor or actress. And if you can't think of one, you're out. But in the supersized version, we get three names. So you have three different people to draw from to come up with titles and you think even though they all have
Starting point is 00:44:30 really big film careers it's crazy how the brain just freezes up after a while when you've said a bunch of the titles so it's really tricky but you do have one lifeline which is the person who's also going to come up with a name. Each of your people that you're playing for are going to suggest a name tonight for us to use in this game. And the only qualification this time, lately I've been saying it has to be an actress
Starting point is 00:44:58 because I've been trying to elevate the actresses and how they're often given shitty roles that we don't remember uh but in this case i'd like it to be so we'll discuss it a little bit each time i'd like to be somebody that is known for being in horror movies like is this some a scream scream queen or a squeam creen and and'm taking Jamie Lee Curtis off the table because she's undisputed
Starting point is 00:45:29 and also she's in half of the movies we just talked about. So let's go to Lolis first. Could you suggest an actress for us to... And even if they've just been in one horror movie, that's enough, really. But do you know a good scream queen? He's getting a little bit of assistance. Yeah, that's cool.
Starting point is 00:45:53 What did he say? He could just say it. Barbara Steele. Barbara Steele? Who is that, even? You don't know? That's not good if you don't know. Who's Barbara Steele? I don't know. Who's Barbara Steele?
Starting point is 00:46:05 I don't know. What was Barbara Steele in, dude? He won't speak directly to you. This is her moment. He's not going to steal it from her. I'm a bartender, and this is how Cholos order beer, too. Through their women. It's true.
Starting point is 00:46:23 I go, what would you guys have? And a Cholo whispers to the woman, and the woman goes, two Bud Lights. You can't ever look a cholo in the eye. Piper Laurie. Piper Laurie just passed away. I just got an advantage somehow. We just lost Piper Laurie,
Starting point is 00:46:42 but she's a tough one. That's a tricky one, so let's see what else we got. Johnny What the Hell. Name a scream queen, please. Any scream queen? Anyone at all except for Jamie Lee. Anyone that's really easy and has been in a lot of movies, but maybe one or two were horror.
Starting point is 00:47:01 I guess Jennifer Love Hewitt. Yeah, I love it. Jennifer Love Hewitt. Fuck yeah. I love it. Jennifer Love Hewitt's a good one. Good one, dude. Okay,
Starting point is 00:47:15 J L H That was easy. Okay, Steve? Fabiola. Where's your, oh, Fabiola, that's right.'s right what do you think fabiola can you think of a good scream queen nev campbell now we are talking i mean yeah so much of the party of five in play at this point in time yeah you're so right we We're having a party of two. Party of two.
Starting point is 00:47:46 Plus one. The Lisa Chabert of her day, I would say. I mean, you could have gone Drew Barrymore and made it easier on all of us, but fine. Right, but that's the funny thing is Drew Barrymore, while being known for dying at the beginning of one movie, the only other horror movie she's in are the two that she did when she was a child,
Starting point is 00:48:06 Cat's Eye and Firestarter. Unless you've seen E.T., which is horrific. He's fucking scary, you're right. That could be such a different movie. Like if E.T. just went around biting kids' heads off or something. But we can say regular movies, right?
Starting point is 00:48:23 Yeah, it doesn't... No, the answers don't have to be horror movies. It's the entire career of a scream queen who, thankfully, these have not just made horror movies so that everybody on stage stands a chance. So we've got Jennifer Love Hewitt, Neve Campbell, Piper Laurie. We're going to take turns saying movies that they were in. Amy's first then me then Guy then Steve
Starting point is 00:48:49 and if you can't think of one you can go to the person who put you in this position of having to think of Piper Laurie or Neve Campbell or Jennifer Love Hewitt movies your lifeline is the person you're playing for.
Starting point is 00:49:08 So be ready with a Piper Laurie title. And as far as Neve and Jennifer go, I think we're going to cover a lot of them. We'll see. All right, start us off, Amy. Okay, I know what you did last summer. That's an interesting thing to say, but I i need a movie title tell them what you did all right i watched i know what you did last summer too uh no that is the correct answer good job and that is yes and i just had this discussion recently that jennifer love hewitt
Starting point is 00:49:42 was in the second one so So I'll take that one. I know you did last summer too. That's not what it's called. Hang on. That's not what it's called. Hang on. I still know what you did last summer. Is that it?
Starting point is 00:49:56 Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Whoa. Yeah, close one. Epic moment for me. I almost lost already. Guy?
Starting point is 00:50:02 Oh, okay. I forgot that you play. Oh. Wild Things. Guy? Oh, yeah. I forgot that you play. Oh. Wild Things. Neve Campbell, yeah. Kind of a horror movie. Not for me. It's got like...
Starting point is 00:50:14 Doesn't it have like crocodiles in it or something? Talking about Kevin Bacon's dick. What is that thing? Six degrees long? Steve? Any movie that we haven't mentioned so far with Piper Laurie, Neve Campbell,
Starting point is 00:50:35 or Jennifer Love Hewitt? Can't Hardly Wait. Yeah, nice one. Damn it. Amy? Scream. Okay. Right? Yeah. uh amy scream okay right yeah my turn scream two guy scream three steve i forget when they start renaming them um the company that's a nev campbell movie oh okay I forget when they started renaming them. The Company.
Starting point is 00:51:05 That's a Neve Campbell movie. Oh, okay. Topher Grace is her boyfriend and her dad's boss. What was The Company? That's Scarlett Johansson in Good Company. What was The Company? Oh, no, the ballerina one. Yeah, A Company of Ballerinas.
Starting point is 00:51:25 Go to The Ballerina Company for all your ballerina one. Yeah. Yeah. A company of ballerinas. Go to the ballerina company for all your ballerina needs. Amy? Scream 4? My turn. Scream 5. Come on. They don't have fuller titles. No, they just put a fucking number on there.
Starting point is 00:51:43 Scream, the recent reboot of the franchise. That's correct, yes. Back to you, Steve. Jennifer Love Hewitt, Neve Campbell, or the probably not going to be touched Piper Laurie. Rest in peace, Piper Laurie. I know, I'm just thinking of Pierpo Piper.
Starting point is 00:52:06 Piper Peribo? Yeah, yeah, yeah. We call of Pierpo Piper Piper Perabo He called her Pierpo Piper Pierpo Piper I was thinking of Pivo Bryson Pierpo Piper Pierpo Piper is not Who we're talking about Anything? You want to go to your lifeline?
Starting point is 00:52:22 Yes What do you got? You're the one who said Piper. Do you need the time to think about it? It was your idea. You know one movie she's in. That's how you know she's a scream queen. It's hard.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Carrie. She was in Carrie with Sissy Spacek's mother. Oh, interesting. Yeah. I think she was even Oscar nominated for that. She's really good. She talks about the dirty pillows or whatever yeah yeah yeah no she's very dirty pillows she's a very strict mother
Starting point is 00:52:50 she's a real mother okay so steve is saved but steve you know you might think of something when it comes back around to you but that's the last time you can use your lifeline now we go to amy That's the last time you can use your lifeline. Now we go to Amy. Johnny. Oh, Johnny. Are these horror movies or any movie? Any movie. Any movie that any of those actresses is in
Starting point is 00:53:13 that we haven't already mentioned. Was Piper Laurie the woman in The Hustler? She was the woman in The Hustler. Thank you for stealing that from me, Johnny. Oh, shit. Yay! Oh, Johnny just got himself on Guy's shit list. Holy crap.
Starting point is 00:53:32 He just walked in off the street and he knew that, huh? I mean, Piper Laurie, I just was reading, like, her, you know, a little bit about her because of her passing, and, like, it really is, like, all about, Carrie really was her moment. So I can't think of any other Piper Lorreys. Whose turn is it? Me? It's me? So I'm going to turn my attention
Starting point is 00:53:54 to Jennifer Love Hewitt and say perhaps an underrated comedy? I don't know. Maybe people like it. Heartbreakers. Oh, so good. That was a very underrated comedy. Yeah, Gene Hagman, Sigourney Weaver, and a
Starting point is 00:54:10 bunch of other people. Yeah. That's a good lineup. Alright. Guy? Sweet Bird of Youth. It's a Tennessee Williams adaptation from 1963. Paul Newman is a sexy actor who's fucking Geraldine Page
Starting point is 00:54:26 who's a washed up actress. So he takes her back to Florida so he can hook up with his ex-girlfriend played by Piper Laurie but her dad who's the boss of the town played by Ed Begley Sr. gets mad and has him castrated. That's really what happens?
Starting point is 00:54:47 It's a Tennessee Williams play. You can just have somebody castrated? When you're the boss of a Florida town. That's a good point. They got interesting rules down there. Or the governor of a Florida state. Oh, man. Sad.
Starting point is 00:55:02 Yes. Okay. I have to say it. steve have you thought of anything cleveland my heart robert redford is a shoe salesman i don't have anything i was so in i feel like if i would have kept going no one would have questioned it i should have kept going i'm trying to have questioned it. I should have kept going. I'm trying to think of even one role Robert Redford played
Starting point is 00:55:29 that was like kind of an ordinary person, like a shoe salesman. It was hilarious. All right, but you had a great showing tonight, Steve. I wouldn't say that. Please. I don't feel like anyone really here would say that.
Starting point is 00:55:47 Thank you. Yeah, see, people came for the shorts. And a previous guest on this show just randomly texted me, have you seen Chopping Mall with Barbara Crampton? I love that movie. Yeah? You like anything that takes place in a mall.
Starting point is 00:56:05 That's true. Whoa. You know me better than I know myself. I like anything that involves ice skates. Hockey or figure skating. Yeah, as long as they're skating around. I mean, so you must love the cutting edge. Yes.
Starting point is 00:56:20 Who doesn't? A love skate story. Are you kidding me? Topic. All right. Can I tell a very briefly, a very skate story? Are you kidding me? Topic. All right. Can I tell a very briefly, a very horrible story? Oh. A beloved comedian who was our colleague and whom we all enjoy.
Starting point is 00:56:34 I was once working with him. And we were standing around. We were having a conversation, a hard-hitting conversation about reproductive freedom. And somebody asked him if any of his girlfriends oh i can't tell this story oh shit guy are you serious um how could it connect you to you can't connect it just from this no you can it it's you could say right after the show if you want to just tell everybody i will tell everybody immediately after the show i'm so sorry i thought it was a story I could safely tell
Starting point is 00:57:05 on a podcast, but then I realized it was not a story. And if you're listening to the podcast, I'll get the story and then DM me and I'll tell you what Guy told me. I think the only thing it could be specifically is if it has to do with Kumail somehow. Sorry, Kumail.
Starting point is 00:57:23 What? I wasn't paying enough attention to it I didn't have anybody in my Did the person's wife get a big sip? That's what I mean That's what I mean Has your wife ever Alright Whose turn is it supposed to be?
Starting point is 00:57:43 Was it on you guy? No it's on Amy. Oh, so you liked it, Guy, was telling that story, because you need time to think. Yeah, and I still, I'm just out, but I feel really strong about my points. You did great tonight. Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:57:57 I feel proud. Yeah, thank you. That applause is real. Nothing. That was a really hard three actresses, though. Yeah, it's tough, yeah. No, for sure. I can only think of about 40 more titles.
Starting point is 00:58:12 Yeah, but you're like, you know, you have an issue. Yeah, I do have a problem. All right. No, it is getting tough, you know. But I got some weird ones for you. Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jackie Chan in The Tuxedo.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Oh! Well, we all remember As Good As It Gets and we all remember how Helen Hunt was a waitress in As Good As It Gets with a son who had some sort of medical issue that was taken care of by her mother, played by Piper Laurie. Hey! He's pulling some sort of medical issue that was taken care of by her mother played by piper laurie hey
Starting point is 00:58:45 he's pulling out all the piper laurie stops over there holy crap wow nev campbell she's been in some rom-coms that i'm having a hard time remembering like i'm pict, like, I'm picturing, like, a three-way kind of situation. Not wild things, you know what I mean? Like a romantic triangle, yeah. A devil three-way, Doug. Oh, my favorite kind. I really am. I think I am.
Starting point is 00:59:21 I think I am. Was there a three-way in Devil's Advocate with Al Pacino? Wah! Okay, Al Pacino impressions are not going to help me right now. You're my son and my daughter. I saw footage of Al Pacino must have been locked out of his house or something, but it's like from one of those Hollywood tour buses where they're like, hey, everybody, look, it's Al Pacino.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Hey, Al. And he's just walking and waving. They kept going, too, but they didn't belabor it. They left Al alone after a brief hello, but it was still just weird because the driver was filming himself giving the tour and saying hi to Al. Maybe they just arrange that every day. Like they know, like he just,
Starting point is 01:00:11 like remember Sally Field in Soap Dish, how they take her to the mall when she's feeling sad? The mall! You probably love Soap Dish. I love Soap Dish. Who doesn't love Soap Dish? Oh, everybody loves Soap Dish.
Starting point is 01:00:25 How are we doing on time here? All right, we got a few more minutes left. Let me think of a... That is wild that I can't... I'm going to say one and hope that Nev Campbell's in it and everybody will confirm that she is. Three to Tango. Three to Tango it is.
Starting point is 01:00:40 Yay! I did it! Written by Aileen Brosh McKenna, who wrote The Devil Wears Prada directed by Andy Fleming who directed The Craft and no one has said the fact yeah go ahead and say it you jerk
Starting point is 01:00:53 the fucking craft holy shit guy he should get extra points he really should alright let me see if I can pull out one more. There's got to be another JLH movie that we've just skipped over, but maybe not.
Starting point is 01:01:18 No, there's got to be. But I can't think of it right now. This was a tough threesome. Do you have any more, Guy? I was going to go to Fabiola, but also I can't remember whether it was, I think it was Jennifer Love Hewitt, but it may have been Lacey Chabert
Starting point is 01:01:33 who was in the Lost in Space movie. Yeah, I think you're right about it being Chabert. Okay, yeah. Do you have anything? Do you have anything, Fabiola? The Craft was a good one, because it's horror and Neve Campbell.
Starting point is 01:01:51 And Piper Laurie was a fan of that movie. I read that in her obituary. Tell them! With Piper Laurie, with Piper Laurie, I'm just surging through my mind trying to remember movies that had women with two sonorous voices.
Starting point is 01:02:08 Like, her just, her voice was like slightly too musical at all times and it was unsettling. Okay. I'm sure the audience might, well, I don't know, maybe they'll have some more, but I think I'm tapped. Guy Branum is our winner tonight!
Starting point is 01:02:28 Yeah! See, you went into this with such low expectations because of the whole horror thing, and then it turns out, knowing a lot about Piper Laurie really paid off. So just go ahead and shout out any movie you thought of that we didn't say. Return to Oz. Return to Oz? Who's in that?
Starting point is 01:02:49 Oh. She's that little talking flying monkey. Johnny, that's your friend. Oh no, that's Zach Braff. Other People's Money. Oh, she plays the secretary at the factory. Now you're an expert. Is that it? No more Nev Campbells?
Starting point is 01:03:10 We really, I mean, she just basically spent a long part of her career just being in Scream movies and wild things. What's that? That's not one, Johnny. It is? I'll always know what you did last summer. That's not one, Johnny. It is. I'll always know what you did last summer.
Starting point is 01:03:29 But Jennifer Love Hewitt's... I'll know it until we're dead. She might not be dead. She might not have made it that far. That sounds like a straight to video thing or something. Yeah, but we'll do some research later on that one, Johnny. And who were you playing for, Guy? Fabiola?
Starting point is 01:03:47 Fabiola. Congratulations. You're our winner. You got hot dog fingers now. I mean, did you even say that this was a possibility when you talked him into coming to the show? Or are you just like, we might win something? Let's do this.
Starting point is 01:04:02 Something really special. Just for you. There you go. Be careful. It kind of has a side opening that's weird. It's like kind of a little weird mystery box there. But let's hear it for Fabiola, everybody. Where are you going to put your Frozen poster?
Starting point is 01:04:19 Away from the sausage fingers. She's going to immediately separate the Frozen poster and the sausage fingers. She's going to immediately separate the frozen poster and the sausage fingers. That makes sense. Because you really, you don't want those things mingling with each other. Let's start with Guy,
Starting point is 01:04:35 the winner. Do your plugs. What would you like to promote? I am at Guy Branum across all social media and you should buy my book, My Life as a Goddess and you should watch the television program,
Starting point is 01:04:46 Platonic, starring Seth Rogen and me, and you should watch Bros, now streaming on Peacock. That's all I got. The person who texted me about Barbara Crampton and Chopping Mall was Paget Brewster. Oh.
Starting point is 01:05:01 Yeah, because she was just on an episode, and so I guess she's trying to watch horror movies now to try to catch up or something. But since you were on the show with her, you've been texting about stuff. We text about Top Chef and only Top Chef. Yeah. I think she really...
Starting point is 01:05:18 Do you do that? Do you have people that you only text with one thing about? A hundred per fucking cent, yes. And I feel deeply self-conscious about it but during the course of the past week and a half of um being a jew in a country or in a world where israel is doing a lot of things the friends of mine who are uh jews who think about politics and other people have been very important to me. And I feel bad that I don't text them except when I'm like,
Starting point is 01:05:48 why is Israel doing this? All right, I'll stop now. It's like it was complicated and now it's more complicated. And now that there's this information, disinformation superhighway where you don't know who to believe anymore. It's really wild. But good luck to everybody. Steve Hernandez, great job.
Starting point is 01:06:12 Great time for you to promote your comedy after that discussion. I like to set people up to succeed. I've got a new podcast about Palestine. And I strongly disagree with Guy. I've got a new podcast about Palestine. And I strongly disagree with Guy. You can find me at BigHern on Twitter, Herny on Instagram.

That's it. Chatterbox in the cityina on Saturdays and Sundays at 8. That's it. Chatterbox in the city of Covina? That's right. I live down the street and I live down the street from here and I commute
Starting point is 01:06:54 to fucking Covina. You gotta go out there, Doug. It's the best show. Covina's further than West Covina? It's just east of West Covina. West Covina? It's just east of West Covina. Isn't that weird?
Starting point is 01:07:11 I've always wondered about that. Like, why is the word east just like, we don't need it. We're Covina. Let the west side go ahead and put that extra label on there. Weirdos. But what's the name of the club there?
Starting point is 01:07:26 It's a bar. It's called Chatterbox. Oh, okay. I thought you were saying your show is called Chatterbox. We've been doing it for 13 years.
Starting point is 01:07:31 It's got the, for sure the best open mic in LA. Yep. And then the Sunday show 13 years and then we have a new weekly Saturday show headline show.

Starting point is 01:09:31 Look for me there. Come on, Cleveland. Come on out. Now, I always end the show lately with Why are you laughing at that? I was just thinking of the movie Cleveland, My Heart. Sorry. Robert Redford. Robert Redford.
Starting point is 01:09:46 Robert Redford is a shoe salesman. Piper Laurie is his mother. And Pierbo Piper plays their daughter. And Ramon's in it somehow because, you know, he just weasels his way into shit in Cleveland. Oh, Piper Perabo is the craziest name. I can't believe it's real. She's on a TV show, right?
Starting point is 01:10:14 Suits or something? One of those? One of those kind of shows? Anyway, look for all of my dates and deets at the douglovesmovies.com web page. It's basically just a page, but we got links and stuff there. And, oh, this is what I was going to say, is that every episode lately I've been closing with the last line from a motion picture,
Starting point is 01:10:38 and I've had some pretty weird ones, like the last episode I said, the last line of a movie was come on eat and that was Sigourney Weaver at the end of Alien says that to her cat Jonesy so that's the the great last line of the motion picture Alien do any of you on stage have a favorite last line from a movie because I neglected to do the research today to come up with one. I wrote down one that I've already done before. I mean, it's hot, but Nobody's Perfect is pretty fucking good.
Starting point is 01:11:12 It's such a good one. At the end of Some Like It Hot. I always love Shut Up and Deal. Shut Up and Deal is the end of The Apartment. It's like Billy Wilder, really, him and, you know, I wonder if Cameron Crowe's movies are very quotable, like Billy Wilder, really, him and, you know, I wonder if Cameron Crowe's movies are very quotable, like Billy Wilder, but I don't think he has great last lines.
Starting point is 01:11:30 Like, you had me at hello is in the middle of the movie. I think Almost Famous has one. Has a good one at the end? I don't know what it is, yeah. It's like, oh, damn, I'm almost famous. Didn't quite get there. The end of Almost Famous was, was wow I didn't realize you were 14 yeah there is a weird
Starting point is 01:11:49 a weird age thing there but at least the actress was 37 so it's not as bad as it could be but Lolisa knows what we're talking about she brought in the Lolita poster that's all I'm saying alright so what do we decide to go with how are we going to close this out oh shut up and deal is a good one i'll do shut up and deal
