movies recording on Wednesday, October 7th, 2026.
And before I introduce my guests, I need to say that I announced the wrong winner on
last week's show.
James Pound and Alex Castain were very polite and didn't correct me when I, much like
Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty, said the wrong name.
Alex was the winner, and he'll be back on soon.
Speaking of winners, my guests today are...
Paget Brewster, Chris Porter, and Samantha Ruddy.
Hello.
Hello.
Let's meet everybody individually, alphabetically, starting with Mrs. Doubtfire.
No, by first name.
He is making his third appearance on the show.
It's been too long.
The hilarious Chris Porter.
Hey, Chris.
Hey, Doug.
How are you, buddy?
I'm good.
How are you?
I'm fantastic.
I hear.
tell that you have a new special.
I do.
It's called middle rage.
It's like middle age, but with like a horror movie R next to it.
I love it.
Yeah, it's a play on words.
Yeah, but probably, you probably have some stuff you're mad about that you talk about
in the special.
Yeah, it's just about, you know, your late 40s are about the time where you realize that
the youth have no idea what your youth was like and vice versa.
Yeah, I buy into that theory.
Yeah.
So it's a lot of,
it's just why aren't,
I just turned into an old man,
Doug,
it's just why aren't things the way they used to be?
And you kids these days don't know.
And,
but it's honest and it's genuine because it's,
I am confused.
And it's been a stapling calm stand-up comedy for many years.
Remember this and you just bring up a thing people remember and people are excited to all remember.
Oh, very much so.
It is applause, break city.
Well, thank you for being here.
Where can people see the special?
It just went free.
So Amazon Prime, you know, not Netflix, but I think, I don't know.
Some of those outlets, but definitely Prime.
Yes.
All right, cool.
She is making what I believe to be her 25th appearance on this show.
From her first time in 2006, the year we started to now 20 years later, it's Padgett Brewster.
Oh, me.
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah, you.
I've done that many?
Yes.
Isn't that crazy?
That is crazy.
It's basically an average of one.
1.5 or less a year.
Oh, oh, God.
Once you average it out, but I think in the last few years you've come on much stronger
and you appear more often because I can, like, call you that morning.
You just text me.
Are you solving criminal crimes with your mind today?
So that means because you're here, I assume that means you're in a hiatus.
Yes, we've finished shooting September 12th.
Okay, I'm going to put that in the record.
Season 20, and I think they'll start airing on Paramount Plus in May when we will hopefully be going back to start shooting season 21.
I don't know.
Paramount's been real quiet because they've been busy.
Well, they're, yeah, they're transitioning into a sky dancer.
Yes.
Yes.
So, yeah.
The whole situation is.
is wild, but I think, you know, as a franchise goes,
there's a series goes, people are in love with it.
And I can't imagine not making more.
That's nice.
Doug, I hope that's the case.
Yeah.
Criminal minds, Paramount Plus.
Yeah.
Primal Minds, Paramount Plus.
Yeah, whisper it.
That's good.
Let's get the subliminal.
Got to get that.
A-S-M-R crowd.
I'm thinking about doing that if criminal minds is not picked up.
Can you just decide to do that and put it on YouTube or something and somehow monetize it?
Be an ASMR person?
Yeah, you just eat potato chips and like tell a Ray Bradbury story real quiet, right?
I think, I don't know if people want those two at the same time, but they seem like the kinds
of things people are into, but you know, you just, you never know what people are going to, people are going to like.
There's a lot of niche stuff out there.
And my third guest, making appearance number eight, I think.
The very funny, Samantha, Samantha.
Beotio.
Hey, Doug.
How long do you think, like, when was your, do you remember the year of your first appearance on this show?
You know, I want to say it was either the very late 2010s, like 2018, 2019, or maybe during the pandemic.
Yeah.
I think that's a pandemic is a very strong possibility because we, you know, forged ahead.
That's where we started doing these Zoom shows.
And you're on the East Coast.
So like it's been great being able to have you on even though we're opposite sides of the country.
Doug, it's been one of the joys of my life.
Do you have any gigs that you want to plug before we move into the next portion of the show?
Yeah.
So I'm a Philly girl.
I'm over here in the southeast corner of the Pennsylvania, and I would love if on December 6th, people could come to my last headlining home show for the year at Claude's Comedy Club.
What's the place called?
It's called Claude's Comedy Club.
It's this new club that just opened up.
Yeah, it's in South Philly.
Yeah, I think I've heard about it.
I've heard some good things, I think, but I just, I didn't recognize the word Claude.
It's interesting.
Yes.
It's a baby you don't really hear that much anymore.
No, yeah, you really don't.
It's kind of a throwback.
And the guy who owns it, not named Claude.
So I'll have to ask.
Yeah, there must be some story behind it.
I hope Claude isn't dead.
That'll be sad.
I hope Claude is thriving.
And so go see Samantha and Claude on December 6th.
I think you did a set, I think,
the last time I did a show
last time I was in Philly
at Helium there.
Yes, that was a lot of fun.
Yeah, you're great, so people
need to come out and see you.
Thank you for being here today.
Thank you.
I've got two games, two fun games
playing for y'all today, but first
it's October, so
please, each one of you
recommend
one horror movie,
Chris,
Go.
Chris go.
Chris go.
Here's the thing I don't watch.
The last horror movie I saw was
the one where everyone has to be quiet.
Quiet place.
Yeah.
Okay, so I've got one point.
Okay, so yeah.
So that and
but I guess for the youth, I would say
Blazing Saddles, because I think it would
horrify a lot of young people, but I think it's really funny.
Well, yeah, I think that's a fantastic twist answer.
Thank you.
Because you didn't just go with a movie that is horrifying, but not horror.
You know, like something like social network.
And you went with a movie that truly does have, especially to today's audience,
by some horrifying elements.
yeah but also it's like
the people that are being
horrifying are you know
we're making fun of them
that's no that's really the
that's the issue
that the young that's what the young people don't see
is that they're like yeah no we're making fun
of them for being so stupid and saying
these things yeah
no it is it's that was uh you know
Mel Brooks really uh just
I don't think he made a movie where he didn't go after
Hitler and he'll be like what's so funny about Hitler
and he's like nothing is funny about Hitler
and that's why we have to make it.
Exactly.
All right.
Yeah, I feel like Hitler shows up in Blazing Saddles,
like in the big fight scene or something.
I think so.
They see him in the commissary.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, at the end.
Yeah, they lose me right after the bunkers scene.
All right, Padgett.
I know you are a genuine horror fan,
but also scared at the same time.
Is that accurate?
No.
I just don't watch as many movies as you.
Oh, okay.
I mostly watch TV.
You know that about me.
I see.
I'm glad that you accept our differences and we can still be friends.
Is there any good horror TV?
Okay, well, see, I don't want to let you down.
I'll tell you what I did see you, that I did enjoy, and I was surprised by.
I think it's from 2009.
You're going to know.
I don't.
It, uh, my husband and I just got the Criterion collection and I was surprised to see this movie in it that I'd never seen before that is called Jennifer's body.
Oh, okay.
Which is the Megan Fox, Amanda Seafreed.
Yeah.
Which is a horror film.
Yeah.
And, uh, I, so Diablo, Diablo Cody wrote it. Yeah. Yeah. I did not recognize the director.
Oh, she's done lots of stuff.
Okay, okay. Karen Kucama.
Yes.
God, see, I know you know all the stuff.
I thought it was very good.
I enjoyed it.
I thought it was good.
People do enjoy it very much.
It's like, you know, I think it's achieved cult status because I don't think it made a ton of money when it came out.
And I don't know what it's rotten tomatoes scoria.
I don't either.
But, you know, if it's come on strong over the year.
If it's included in the Criterion Collection, that's why I was like, well, now I got to see it.
I mean, the games have claimed it.
Oh.
Yeah, that's what it is.
Yes. Yes.
Well, they know their shit.
Because I liked it.
I just, I heard that this new movie Verity.
I've been hearing a lot about that.
It's supposed to be like, you know, sexy, mystery, you know.
And like, I hear that it's not much of either.
But I have it.
Yeah, the reviews have been very bad.
But, you know, that's no reason to stay away from a movie that's got Anne Hathaway involved.
I think she makes pretty good choices normally.
Yeah.
Okay, Samantha, what's your pick?
I will preface this with I have been told that I have lowy taste in film.
I'm going to go with Final Destination Bloodlines.
Oh, solid.
Good movie.
I support you.
So fun.
So fun.
Great.
Thank you.
Great.
I just, I know it's not high art, but for the month of October, if you want to feel like you're on a little ride, it's just very fun.
That first one, the first one is the only one I saw, and I laughed so hard through the whole thing.
It's so funny.
Oh, when the girl's yelling at everybody and then she gets hit by the bus, they had to pause the movie.
Because I was laughing so hard.
The projection is stop the film.
Um, yeah, it's, uh, it is really, I was really surprised by how, uh, entertained I was by it because I do, I do hate the, it's just like the opening segment of every episode of six feet under somebody would die.
And I hated that part of the show. Like it was interesting to see how they would kill somebody every episode.
But it was also, they do just like in these, uh, Final Destination movies where you know that something bad's about to happen, but they do in this,
you know, Rube Goldberg kind of like
a bunch of things happen until finally
the thing you least expect,
but that is also a violent and kills
the person, uh, happens.
That shit, I, it really, I really
cringe during it, but also
especially with this last one, bloodlines,
I think they did a really good job
with it. Yeah, I feel like
they played with the tension in a way that
was like comedic without doing
the horror genre a disservice.
Like, it didn't feel like it
didn't belong in the franchise, which,
spotty. It's a spotty franchise. It's not hard to have a knockout in it, but it's really a knockout, in my humble opinion.
Especially compared to the others, but yeah, also just the production design, like that so much of the beginning of the movie takes place and it's really cool if the Space Needle was a cool restaurant bar.
Yeah.
In what was it supposed to be, the 50s or 60s?
Yeah, I really liked it.
Yeah, they did a good work on that one. How long ago did that come out?
Was that last year?
Yeah, I want to say it was like last summer.
Yeah, yeah.
But still worth checking out.
And it's good for this month.
So as I look at all of your recommendations, I thank you for them.
I probably won't be seeing any of them, at least not right away.
But maybe again someday because they're all classics in one way or another.
And we're going to take a break right now.
We get back.
The games will.
begin. Hey, hey, hey, small business owners. There's so many moving parts swirling around when you're

Back to the show!
We're back, a dinosaur's story.
Our first game today is something that I call.
Count me if you can.
This is an insanely impossible game that is really fun
when someone manages to get one of the answers.
Right.
I will, because it's just, it's a guessing game,
but it's an educated guessing game.
I will name a movie.
And then the three of you will take turns guessing how many credited performers are listed at the end of the movie in the end titles.
So it doesn't count uncredited performances that IMDB likes to point out whenever possible.
So we'll start with Chris.
If he gets in this first one, if he doesn't guess the number correctly, then we'll go to the number correctly.
then we'll go to Samantha
and then Padgett if nobody gets it
nobody gets a point
we'll play three rounds and we'll see if we need
a tiebreaker. Probably
won't.
It's impossible.
It's not impossible.
You just wait and see.
Okay. All right.
And we're listening for typing.
The movie is
Halloween,
the original.
from back in the 80s.
How many credited performers,
actors do you think were in that movie, Chris?
34.
Incorrect, but fast,
efficient.
I just went with a vibe.
Samantha?
56.
Whoa.
Jeez.
Also incorrect.
Padgett?
I'm going to say, I'm going to say 12.
Oh, seems like it should be about 12, right?
Because it's like Lori Strode and her friends and the shape and some characters in the flashback scene.
But that is clearly not correct.
No, it's 20 people.
Oh.
20 credited actors in Halloween.
but hopefully that number
will help educate
and elucidate
for this next round
starting with Chris
from a couple of years later
Halloween 2
so the original Halloween had
20 what do you think
what do you think that you came up with for Halloween
2 in terms of the number of credited
actors
I'm going to go with 34
again
oh this is a fun strategy
yeah yeah
let the answer
let the right answer come to me
number yeah
it's like starting with the same word
every day and word'll
someday
that's going to be the right answer
you're going to get it right immediately
it was like
it was gambling
it was not
it's not 34
Samantha
um
what if I just said like a thousand
um
I'm going to say
17.
17 is also not the number.
They didn't fire three people.
Well, they might have killed them.
It's a whole movie.
Yeah, those could have been the people who died in the first one.
Yeah.
Okay, Padgett.
I'm going to say 24.
24 is also incorrect.
Damn it.
But fun little side note that I can't even picture him in it.
it's been so long since I've seen it.
But Dana Carvey is in Halloween 2.
What?
Yeah.
He acted in a few things before S&L.
Huh.
You know, like he was in a movie called Tough Guys with Burton Lancaster and Kirk Douglas.
He was like their handler.
There were a couple of old-timey pains in the asses.
Wow.
And he was like their nephew or some shit.
But I don't know what he did.
Halloween, too, he's like,
credited his assistant to somebody.
So most of that movie takes place at a hospital.
So maybe he's an assistant to a doctor or something.
But anyway, 38 people.
They practically doubled the cast.
For the success of Halloween, they went ape shit.
And had 38 people.
But I'm feeling good about this next one.
I feel like one of you is going to nail this.
Chris, the movie is Halloween 3, season of the witch.
This is the movie where they went rogue and decided that these movies did not need to be about Michael Myers.
It's a whole different story.
Yeah, it's a whole different story.
And there's a creepy theme song that plays on the TV.
That's a real earworm if you've ever heard it.
but how many people would you guess are in this third Halloween movie?
Well, just a season of witches alone.
That's way over 34.
It's season of the witch.
Season of no witch?
They make it clear that it's just a witch.
Or no, now that you bring it up saying season of the witch means just could mean witches in general.
Yes.
It probably does.
And obviously I've seen zero of these movies.
So this is all just a vibe.
Yeah, we picked a bad month for you to be on.
If you don't know anything about horror movies.
Yeah, when's action thriller month?
The rest of the year.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, well, maybe except for Christmas time.
I'm going to go.
It's the third one.
Mm-hmm.
I'm going to go
58
Whoa
Like they just were really out of control
We got to make each one
The way to make these movies bigger and better
Is to have more people in them
But that is also
Cocaine
It would be so funny
If the answer was 34
And that's when you decide to switch
I kind of was hoping
58
That's incorrect
Samantha
34
I wanted to do that
you just have to get the right answer
okay
all right
just I'm telepathically
telling you
okay okay okay
I think
I think they pulled back
on casting
I'm going to say
24
oh my goodness
it's 25
people.
Damn it!
Why can't this be more like Price is right?
Why can't we pick the closest without going over?
It's funny.
You should say that, Paget.
Yeah, because it's a good idea.
It's like you're in my head when I came up with this.
Because to break the tie, since nobody got any points, we have a three-way time.
So I am going to do a round where the closest to the correct answer without going over will be our winner of this game.
But I do want to mention before we move on,
that season of which, of course, Jamie Lee Curtis was not in it on camera because her character from the first two movies does not appear,
but they still slipped her in there as voices and uncredited voices in the movie,
someone that's a curfew announcer and then also a telephone operator.
I want the job of curfew announcer.
Hi, everybody, go home.
Yeah, ladies and gentlemen.
The curfew has begun.
I guess maybe that at a curfew because there was, you know, so many witches running around.
Because all the witches.
Yeah, they're like, everybody but a witch go home.
And that's how you catch the witches.
They're still out.
Okay.
So we'll go Chris and then Samantha and Padgett like we have been doing.
But each of you get your own guests.
And the closest without going over is going to win this game.
Padgett, what movie do you think I picked for the tiebreaker?
I think you picked Halloween 4.
Nope. I went with Friday the 13th.
I love you.
Chris, how many people do you think were in the original Friday the 13th at camp, whatever it was called?
34.
Oh.
I love how you stick to your guns with your 30s.
for Samantha
23
23
yeah I'm going to go with 23
it's a camp so you know there's like a lot of people
generally but also
it's pretty low budget so
I'm going 23
okay Michael Jordan
uh
page it
I'm going to go with 26
no
that's how you play
I'm so sorry
I would
She won't
$1.
I'm sorry.
I know you
It's true
Paget did ask for
Price's right style
which means closest
without going over.
She assassinated me
with their own rules.
But this is what happens
on Price's Right
when everybody
bids over.
Over?
Everybody bid over.
Everybody bids again.
Starting with Chris,
What was the lowest bid?
23.
It's 23.
So it's lower than 23, Chris.
What's your due bid?
16.
Samantha.
I can't do it.
Do it.
Do it.
You can't do it.
Do it.
Do it.
18.
Okay.
Padjit.
12.
Ooh.
Say it.
How many did you say, Samantha?
18.
It's 20.
You win.
Oh, shit.
Oh, no.
So you were so close.
That you would have gone up a higher page.
No.
You could have got this right on the money.
If you had yes and did and screwed me over for the bit, you would have won.
Yeah.
I really thought I really thought I was winning.
I really thought it was below.
Well, that's, you know, that's what actually happens on the prices right.
People have some sneaky bets.
Sometimes you gamble in the wrong direction.
But Samantha was closest to both times.
So she deserves the win.
She deserves the win just for a showdown.
For sure.
Thank you so long.
I'll see you in the Showcase Showdown.
Yeah, congratulations, Samantha.
You know the drill.
really win much. You just get to go first in our
big finishing game in which I hope
that Chris has more opportunity
to, because it's not entirely
about horror films, but I'll get into it when we get back. We'll be right back.
We're back, ADS. So
like I said, Samantha
only won the opportunity to go first.
in our final game, and it's a game that I call,
Rame on me.
Say it again?
Rame.
You know that word that doesn't exist.
Rame.
Okay.
Like Sam.
Sam Raming is a great for director,
but also the director of other types of films.
I wrote down,
the top 10 best-reviewed Sam Bramey movies according to Rotten Tomatoes.
Okay.
So the three of you will take turns, starting with Samantha, then Chris, then Padgett.
You will guess movies made by Sam Ramey.
And if your movie's number one on the list, if it's the best reviewed on Rotten Tomatoes,
it will earn you 10 points.
if it's number 10, you get one point,
then there's all those points in between,
plus no points for anything, 11 through 16.
He has made 16 films.
These aren't things that he has a producer credit on.
These are all directed by Sam Ramey.
It's a lot.
Yeah, and I'll give you the rain.
Just for the love of the game.
The top rated one is 93%.
But I'd say, you know, at least 10 of the movies are certified, 12 of the movies are certified fresh, 12, 1916.
No, Sam.
Not bad.
Yeah.
I like his work a lot.
All right.
So we'll start with you, Samantha.
What's your first guess of what you think would be the best reviewed Sam Ramey movie?
Spider-Man 2 is number one.
on the list.
Nice.
Yes.
Nailed it.
93% on R.T.
For, yeah, just everyone goes around talking about how anytime there's a trilogy,
there's exceptions, obviously, but part two can tend to be the weakest.
Yeah.
I mean, Godfather, too, obviously, that one's considered better.
and then there's one other one that flashed into my brain that like everybody loves the second one.
Second top gun is better than the first one.
Whoa.
The remake.
No,
No,
Maverick is better.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that is Top Gun too, I guess.
Yeah.
Yeah, they didn't reboot it.
They just brought in some young boots.
They brought in some new young boots.
Yeah.
Who, like, that guy, he's like five of six years younger than Tom Cruise, I think.
anyway
maybe more than that
all right so
Chris
leaves a lot of movies
15 Sam Ramey movies
which one you think is number two
Casablanca
No
okay so
Just
just from the
from context of what the first answer was
Yeah yeah
I would think you'd have a better guess
then
I'm going
I'm so lost right now
I'm just going for the funny
at this point
all right
but in his top 10
is Spider-Man
number two
all right
so what else do you think
would be on this list
Spider-Man 3
Spider-Man 3
is number 11
on the list
so you get
no boys
After so much cajoling him toward the...
I cajoled towards...
I was hoping for a different payoff.
Three has the best memes.
He's an adult who could make his own decisions,
and he chose Spider-Man 3,
which was kind of wildly considered to be
a deep falloff from the previous two,
because at one point,
uh,
Spider-Man goes into a beat club
and starts,
acting like a beatnik and it does a little dance.
That's great.
I like it.
I love it, but people hated it.
People who are so mad at it.
All right,
fuck them for trying something different in a dumb superhero movie.
Yeah.
All right, Padgett.
What do you got?
Are you a Ramie fan?
I mean, I can name two.
That's all.
Well, you know, you might think of more as we go along, but give us with your best one.
Do I say what I know is my top-rated?
I mean, if you like it that much, maybe the critics did too.
Then I'm going to say Army of Darkness.
Army of Darkness.
Also a part of a trilogy, the third part of the Evil Dead trilogy, comes in.
At number 10 on the list.
One point.
With 68% certified fresh, but Padgett, you are on the board.
Thank you.
That could be, that could come in handy later.
Later, but let's see how much distance Samantha can get from herself and the other players today.
What's your second guess?
Spider-Man 1
Oh, you mean what I was trying to get Chris to say?
Yes.
I thought Chris was doing a bit.
I'm at this point I am.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But you worked out great for me.
It's always a funny twist when I lure somebody into the wrong answer.
But Spider-Man.
And, Uno, as we, you know, call it now.
It was just Spider-Man at the time.
That is number five on the list.
So that is worth six more points for Amanda.
But this is still, you could still catch up, Chris and Padgett.
Anything come to mind, Chris, for your second guess?
was there a bat girl movie have they made that yet
a bat girl directed by
Sam Ramey
yes
like sort of a spin out of the Spider-Man
yeah yeah I was trying to keep it in that same
keep it in that family
yeah
yeah
I'm afraid to say
Do you know that SNL sketch where Chris Farley goes on the Japanese game show and he gets electrocuted at the end?
Do you remember that?
That sounds familiar.
I do, yes.
That's how I feel right now.
You're saying a bunch of words that I don't know.
And then you're like, what's your answer?
And I'm like, I'm going to get shocked again.
You know that sketch where Chris Farley is trying to interview Paul McCartney, but he's so in awe that he can't.
Yeah.
That's how I feel with the three of you.
But no, I'm sorry.
I don't even know if there is a movie called Bad Girl,
but if there is, it was not directed by Sam Ramey or on this list.
Okay.
We're back to Paget.
Oh, okay.
Maybe you've learned something.
No, I have.
I should have said Spider-Man.
I learned that.
Right.
Um, uh, I'm going to say evil dead two, which I preferred to the first one.
Uh, right.
The remake.
Uh, yeah.
That was essentially a remake, but like, yeah, it's more, it's definitely a more fun and has cooler.
Yeah.
It's fantastic.
Yeah.
It's kind of like people even, don't even really, uh, go back to the first.
To evil dead one.
Yeah.
To the first.
Yeah.
Cause it's almost like that was like a sizzle.
It's almost like that was a sizzle reel to get funding to make evil dead too.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's a, that's legit.
And Evil Dead 2 is number six on the list.
Oh, still can't beat her.
Huh.
I'm running, uh.
Good.
It's not looking good.
I'm starting to run empty on Ramey, though.
What's that?
Starting to run empty on Ramey.
I only have one more in the, I only have like one more in the satchel.
Do it.
I want to know what it is.
Just say, at least I wasn't the,
one who started on empty.
I'm just as God made me, Doug.
What's your next guest, Samantha?
This is, you know, putting the final nail in the coffin.
Drag Me to Hell?
Drag Me to Hell.
It's like you were blessed to do well in this game.
Drag Me to Hell is tied for,
number two on the list.
It's a great movie.
Also a great October watch. It's worth eight
points. That gives you a total
of 24 points.
Which means
that you're our winner today
and I would like you to do two things
before. I still want Chris and
Padgett to have their final
guesses just for fun.
But I especially know
Chris is going to find it to be a lot of fun.
But first
Samantha, you win
the honor of choosing who I call a shithead
at the end of the show today.
Oh!
Just tell me who you think is a shithead.
Okay.
All right, I'll think about it.
Oh, okay.
You don't want to tell me now?
Oh, well, you know what?
John Federman's a shithead.
Oh, that's a good one.
You keep it local.
I like that about you.
I keep it local.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's the...
Pennsylvania.
He's a Pennsylvania problem, but also bad for the world.
Okay.
Yes.
What would you like to plug Samantha Ruddy?
Just my December 6th show at Claude's Comedy Club in Philadelphia.
Awesome.
Everybody.
Everybody go to Claude.
It's like you don't hear, I guess maybe, is it, do you think maybe we're saying it wrong?
Is it Cloud?
No, I don't think so.
some reason in Samantha's microphone, it sounds like she's saying quads, like what you would work out.
Oh.
Quad day.
But it's clawed like the AI name, right?
Yeah, the first time I thought, I thought she was saying claw.
Oh, that's an interesting name for a comedy club.
Like a claw reaches, grabs people off the street, makes them watch comedy.
I think I'm just in the Pennsylvania mountains and have a horrible accent and I can't quite pronounce it.
I thought you said.
But I think you only hear of the Claude these days if it's got the fancy cloud.
You know what I mean?
Like a French restaurant.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because I think that Claude has just turned into C-L-O-D when you hear it.
It just sounds like, you know, Claude just sounds like a, you know, clump of mud or something.
Yeah, it's a name that certainly fell out of favor after 1940, right?
Yeah.
Oh, for sure.
Claude Raines is the only
Claude I can think of.
Mm-hmm.
Speaking of Casa Blanca.
Yeah, you're right.
Yeah.
See, it was foreshadowing.
Yeah.
Well, I asked you about San Juan,
and you drew a Costa Blanca.
Or Blanca, if you prefer.
That was perfect.
Do you have a third guest, Chris?
Uh.
And they did make a Casablanca.
a two, I should say.
What was Samantha's last guess?
Drag me to hell.
Drag me to hell.
Drag me back to hell.
Drag me back to hell is a great idea.
That's a great movie.
That is the most disgusting PG-13 movie ever made.
Yes.
It's got every bodily fluid off flying in people's faces.
I don't remember it.
I need to, I wrote it down because I don't know if I've,
it's got a fun twist ending too.
Okay.
Yeah.
I wrote it down.
I'd like to see it.
I don't know if I've seen it.
It's probably in the Criterion Collection.
Oh, yeah.
I think it is.
It's really good.
Like it's 92, it's 92%.
92%.
Wow.
Yeah.
So it's pretty good.
But they did not make a drag me back to hell as much as I would like to see that happen, Chris.
So congratulations.
in this game, it always impresses me when someone goes three for three.
Loss.
You're welcome.
I like to make my mark.
You were so close with Spider-Man 3.
Padgett, did you think of one more?
Well, here's my problem.
I thought of, I mean, obviously there's Evil Dead, which I don't think is on that list.
Here's where I'm getting confused.
Did he do a Western with Sharon Stone,
called The Quick and the Dead?
This cast was so stacked.
Sharon's own, Gene Hackman,
Leonardo DiCaprio,
Russell Crow.
Yeah.
Isn't it terrible?
It's like not good, right?
Well, it's very Sam Ramey.
It's very cartoony.
But the actors all
actually treat it very serious.
Yeah.
And I'm a fan of it.
It's got some classic,
like, you know, there's just a series of
shootouts. It's basically about a shootout competition.
And so over several days' time, they meet in the middle of the day and try to shoot each other.
And in Gene Hackman's like the bad guy, but they're all people that are there to shoot each other.
And, but it's just got each shootout that he has to do something different with the camera work.
Like it's really, it's really.
Inside the revolver.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I liked it. I liked that movie.
Yeah. And it's got the.
Ampy, but I liked it.
Yeah, it's got one of the classic, you know, looking through the hole in a person.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah, yeah.
I won't give it away.
Even though it's been around for a long time, I don't want to spoil it for anybody.
But is that your guess, the Quick and the Dead?
That's my guess.
But I still want to ask you about another movie that I can't remember the name of.
But how did I do on that?
Quick in the Dead.
Number four, two, three.
Number 12.
Oh, boo.
Yeah, it fell out of the top 10 there.
But just remembering that that was a Sam Ramey is impressive.
Hey, thanks, Doug.
Well, you tell me what.
What was this other thing you wanted to ask?
Well, what's the name of the movie that his brother starred in who played a serial killer who makes a suit out of a woman?
And he walks around in like Ed Gein, he walks around in the woman's suit.
That's real?
It's a real movie.
Starring Ted Ramey?
Starring Ted Ramey.
Yeah.
I'll look it up when we're done.
But I remember that being very arresting.
Like, very effective.
I don't know what that is or who made it.
Sam Ramey directed it.
Oh, maybe Sam Ramey didn't direct it.
And Ted Ramey just starred in it.
Or maybe.
Is there a chance?
Is it called Crime Wife?
I don't remember the name at all.
Yeah, because they did a movie early on, Sam did a movie early on called Crime Wave that I feel like it's the only Sam Ramey I haven't seen.
So maybe that's it.
Because it seems like a bit of a crime wave that he's walking around somebody's skin.
Yeah, and the skin is like starting to rot.
And I think he like installs a zipper.
I mean, there just were things about it that were really so memorable that I, that I,
Except for the title, I suppose.
You should, can you look it up right now?
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Oh, we're done playing.
So it's not like I could cheat on anything.
No, it's not.
And you could have cheated anyway.
Well.
You can be typing away and say, I don't like to.
Okay.
How have people start saying other?
What's it called?
Ted Ramey?
Like, if you just type into Google, starring Ted Ramey.
Oh, yeah, you're right.
I guess you're right.
Okay.
Oh my god, should I really do that starring Ted Ramey and just see what he was very good guy.
Okay.
He was very good in this starring Ted Ramey.
That's all I typed in most of Sam's movies.
Tim O'Neill and Sequest, Ted Henry.
Oh, no, he was in a bunch of.
Yeah, he was in a bunch with his brother, Ash versus Evil Dead.
Sequest, Zena Warrior Princess, Hercules.
he played
probably too many to read out loud
yeah evil dead too oh sorry
you know what
okay it might
could it be dark man or shocker
maybe it is crime wave because it's definitely a long time ago
yeah
let's see what crime is it's not shocker
shocker when I was a kid
shocker was a big guy that was like on death row
and the electricity just made him stronger
no he became a piece of energy
that would transfer from
one person of the other.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
And then,
and then Darkman was a superhero movie.
It's with Liam Neeson.
Yeah,
yeah.
He gets disfigured and so he puts on a mask and then he goes out and, uh,
you know,
I think he like fights,
he has issues with the mafia.
Um,
it's not the grudge.
But anyway, so I'm guessing it's crime wave.
That's,
that's my final answer.
But,
1885 comedy,
directed by Sam Ramey.
This is Crime Wave?
This is Crime Wave.
Bruce Campbell's in it.
Slapstick mix of film noir, black comedy, hitchcocky, and suspense.
Yeah, that's not it.
That's not it.
Ted Ramey, producer Ryan, is suggesting maybe it's a movie called Skinner.
Yes.
Skinner!
Yeah, it says what he does.
They don't even put that in his Wikipedia page.
Whoa.
All right.
Here are the rest of the answers for anybody dying to know.
Thank you.
coming in number 16, his most poorly reviewed film with 47% of the critics, which is still almost half, but nonetheless, not fresh for the love of the game.
Is it about baseball?
Did you say that movie as soon as I said Sam Rainey at the beginning?
No.
I swear you said something like that.
What is it?
I said I was here for the love of the game.
Yeah.
Oh, you confused, Doug.
So, yeah.
Yeah, that's his baseball movie that wasn't terribly well received.
Like, was it Costner?
I think it was Costner.
Anyway, number 15 was his take on the whole Wicked and Oz business Oz the Great and Powerful with...
Wild.
With what's his name from Scrubs was a talking monkey.
And then 14 is The Gift.
A thriller that I think was a Hillary Swank has psychic powers and the whole town like Keanu Reeves wants to murder her because he's, you know, he knows that her powers are, you know, from the devil.
13 is crime wave and that's a, that now I'm understanding is a comedy that starred their friend Bruce Campbell that they, that Sam made before the Evil Dead movies.
then we had Quick in the Dead, Spider-Man 3, Army of Darkness.
Number 9 was his entry in the Marvel of French movies,
Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, starring Cumber Snatch.
Oh, that guy, that guy.
Yeah, that guy.
I forgot he did a Marvel.
Yeah, and also everybody forgot that he did.
Darkman was number eight on the list.
And then seven.
This was also funny to me that we were talking around Evil Dead 2,
and nobody just said the Evil Dead, the prior, the previous film.
That's number seven on the list.
And then Evil Dead 2, Spider-Man 1.
And then this one, people forget it's the Sam Ramey,
but it's a really solid thriller that starred Billy Bob Thornton and Bill Paxton
called A Simple Plan.
Oh, my God.
Also written by the Cohen brothers.
Oh, boy.
I thought they directed that.
thought, you know, one of them directs?
Yeah.
I didn't know Sam Ramey directed that.
Yeah.
Yeah, he did.
Those guys, too like that.
They probably were, it definitely had their similar vibe to like Fargo.
Blood simple.
Yeah.
And then tied for second with drag me to hell,
Sam Ramey's most recent hit motion picture, send help.
Wow.
Wow.
Yeah, which is also, I thought, was very good.
What is that about?
I haven't seen it.
That's the,
it's about me in this game.
Rachel McAdams and I can't think of it.
Oh, the plane crash.
I expanded on an island, yeah.
Shit, I liked that a lot.
Again, didn't know it was Sam Ramey.
Dylan O'Brien.
They're both very good in it.
Oh, that was really good.
I recommend you watch it without learning more about it.
And it's not, it's not horror, but there are some, you know,
there's some dicey.
scary parts.
Really good, yeah.
All right.
So again, congratulations to Samantha.
Thank you.
Let's get plugs from everybody else.
Chris Porter, your special is available now.
Amazon and elsewhere.
And it's called Middle Rage.
Yes, and I have shows this weekend, Springfield and Boston, Massachusetts.
And next weekend at the Improval.
Providence, Milwaukee.
Nice.
Thank you for being here today.
Thanks for having me.
Padgett.
Yeah.
What about Thrilling Adventure Hour?
Yeah, we're doing, we're doing a show.
The Thrilling Adventure Hour is doing two shows at Dynasty Typewriter this Saturday,
the 10th, I think a 7 o'clock show and a 930 show.
Also, if anyone is available or in Los Angeles, if you would like to,
buy a ticket to help raise funds for Alex's Lemonade.
LA loves Alex's Lemonade.
It's Saturday the 17th at UCLA from 12 to 4.
All the money goes to help support families with kids who have cancer,
and it's every chef you've ever heard of or seen in a cooking competition,
giving out food.
Once you get in there, everything's free.
And it's just a great organization, and it's a lot of fun.
And I think everyone in the cast of criminal minds is going to be there.
Wow.
So, and celebrities from other shows?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
And it's day drinking.
What do you think the ticket is to get in there, like $4,700?
I don't know.
Yeah, I bet it's steep.
I know what it is to buy a table, and I can't afford that.
But other friends of mine can and have.
So I sit at their table.
I don't actually know what the,
because we all get invited because we sit at our friend's table.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
I see.
I don't know.
But a lot of people are there.
We saw Patton and Meredith last year and it's like nice people.
It sounds great.
And it's the thrilling Adventure Hour.
Do they also stream it or is it just a live?
Oh, yeah, it's streaming too.
I just don't know.
I don't know how to get it.
If you go on.
Well, if you...
Padget, Padgett Graham.
I think there might be information about it there.
Or just go to Dynasty Typewriter.com.
Oh, great.
Yeah, and that'll tell you how you can get streaming.
Doug, you're so good.
You're like my handler.
I should...
Can I hire you part-time?
I'll happily stand behind you with a purse with your lipstick in it.
No.
I mean, get me through the airport.
I mean, help me pitch things I'm doing.
Oh, okay.
You're so good.
Thank you.
Oh, my purse.
I've got some things to plug.
I'm going to be at the West River Comedy Club in Rapid City, South Dakota on October 16th and 17th.
And we're going to be at the Comedy Fort in Fort Collins.
I finally put that together.
That's the Comedy Fort, and it's in Fort Collins.
I always just thought Comedy Fort was a cute, a cute name.
And I always like to say that I'm excited to play that.
with the tensions going on in the world right now.
I just feel much safer being in a fort rather than a club.
And I'll be there on all Hallows Eve.
I'll be there October 30th and 31st, which is always a crapshoot.
Nice.
Doing shows on Halloween, like a lot of people have other plans.
But I'm still going to give it a go.
And thank you again to my guests today, Chris Porter,
Samantha Reddy and Paget Brewster.
Samantha, we'll hit you up to come back real soon and defend your title.
Fair way.
But as always, John Fetterman is a shithead.
Now it's time for Doug to watch another talkie.
Eyes of Gold is viewing prowess makes him cocky.
There's no room in his heart for you because Doug.
