Hey, so what did you want to talk about?
Well, I want to tell you about Wagovie.
Wagovie?
Yeah, Wagovie.
What about it?
On second thought, I might not be the right person to tell you.
Oh, you're not?
No, just ask your doctor.
About Wagovie?
Yeah, ask for it by name.
Okay, so why did you bring me to this circus?
Oh, I'm really into lion tamers.
You know, with the chair and everything?
Ask your doctor for Wagovie by name! what go be dot CA for savings exclusions may apply
Hi, this is Gilbert Gottfried. You know you're the host.
Yes, yes.
I believe me.
I wake up screaming.
Your name's on it.
Hi, this is Gilbert Gottfried and I'm here with my co-host Frank Santo Padre.
We're once again recording at nutmeg with our engineer
Frank Ferdorosa if he doesn't lose this recording
and we're here with the
the black southern jazz
Jazz music was a blues musician a blues musician. Sorry Ray bone
You're now listening to me off the mic you're listening to this is our latest release and it's got a bullet see you could hear
that Cajun accent I thought I was talking to dr. John
oh this is part two of something fun that we did last week for 200 episodes and Frank said
157 mini episodes good Christ. That's
357 episodes of this thing that we've done. I thought we both be dead
Oh long before we got to this point. Oh god, I was hoping
The sweet release of death. Yes
But for 200 episodes, I thought well, let's do something different, let's do something
that involves the fans directly.
So we went to the Gilbert Gottfried Amazing Colossal Listener Society, which was founded
by our friends Rob Smentech and Eric Fusco.
And I posted and I said, look, ask us questions.
Anything about the show, the history of the show, putting the show together, how the guests
are booked. Men-Mentech and Fusco were the thrill the history the show putting the show together how the guests are booked.
Mentech and Fusco were the thrill killers.
Yes they were.
Yes, Mentech and Fusco.
Yes.
They gave Dick and Perry a run for their money.
Yeah.
Uh, they were in the Big Little Book version of In Cold Blood.
Oh yes.
I mean.
Yeah.
There's a reference for twelve people.
We decided to do something even more radically different for part two of our question and answer session.
We decided to let jazz musician, see now I did it.
Legendary blues man Paul Raybone fire the questions at us.
I'm actually going to be singing the questions with the band, with the Raybone band.
I think I like Blind Lemon Raybone.
That's even better.
We'll have the listeners submit blues names for you.
Shoeless Raybone.
Shoeless Deaf Raybone.
Po Boy.
Po Boy Raybone. Po Boy. Po Boy Raybone. So we're gonna have, I glanced at these
questions so I didn't prep answers to them so I thought it'd be something
different. We'll let Paul fire the questions at both of us and we'll see
what we can come up with and get through these. My first reaction looking at some of these is we
never should have opened this up. I realize that but listen let these
people express themselves. They've been supporting us for four years. That's what Moses said.
Let my people express themselves.
What are you doing, red buttons?
Moses never got a dinner?
Yes.
All right.
Okay, are you ready?
Ready.
Fire away.
We'll try to get through these.
And then Moses would put his hand to his ear and go, strange things are happening.
Hee hee. is here and go strange things are happening.
You know how many podcasts you think there are in the world now?
In the world?
Probably thousands?
Hundreds of thousands.
You think anybody's talking about red buttons on another podcast?
Anywhere?
That's why people this is it.
This is the one.
Okay.
That's right.
All right. Joseph Rodriguez wants to know will there ever be a Seth MacFarlane episode with
dueling Paul Linz?
Oh, I'd love that.
Oh, that would be great.
Yeah, we'll ask Seth.
Yeah.
Yeah. I think I asked him three years ago when we first started.
Oh my God. I was looking for the John Carradine love American style.
Did you find it?
No, but I came across one much weirder.
Okay.
This was one, it has to do with the boss and exec probably, and he hires a sexy young blonde
secretary and it's all about how he's falling apart because he's so lustful for
this sick hot blonde secretary. I know where you're going. And so the secretary
is Carol Wayne. Right the old tea time girl from the Art Fern and the
Tonight Show. And horny for pussy guy is Paul Lin.
And he's there like, you know, checking out her breasts going,
Oh my goodness.
Oh, look at those.
What an acting job that was.
Yeah, and you go, he's an actor.
A complete thespian.
I'm really convinced this guy likes pussy
We will we will try to get a Seth on the show We will bug we will bug Seth. Did we have a Paul Lin dueling Paul Lin's recently?
I had him do Paul Lin with was it Billy West?
Did we have Billy? Somebody somebody we had you do Paul Lin with I think it was I think it was Larry Kenny
We did dueling Paul Lin's yeah, okay
You can never have too many dueling Paul Lin's. Which I'd like to see Kenny. We did dueling Paul Linz, yeah. Okay. But you can never have too many dueling Paul Linz.
Which, can't have too many.
Which I'd like to see a film clip of dueling Paul Linz.
Yes.
And what they duel with.
Yes.
Yes.
That's the sequel to Hamilton.
Yes.
Thank you Joseph Rodriguez for opening up that discussion.
All right.
All right, Gabriel Noel.
I very recently realized that all of your podcasts to this point have been exclusively with English speaking guests
They want to interview Raul Castro
Question whether we have English speaking hosts
Yes, that's debatable is there or has there ever been a prospective guest that is open to being interviewed
Is there or has there ever been a prospective guest that is open to being interviewed?
Interviewed that doesn't speak English. Yeah, or at least not comfortably speak English and requires a translator I think of as an example of now deceased loopy to Tovar. Oh loopy to Tovar. Yeah
Oh my god, what about Charro? That's not really English. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but she's one of those like I
Think if you call her at
three in the morning she'd answer in perfect English. Because like that
accent's gotten stronger over the years. I see. Surprise her at 3 a.m. and yeah she
speaks like Helen Mirren. This would be an interesting translator who can actually get, what is it Lupita?
We'd like to get Pink Lady.
Pink Lady?
Well you want Papi on Susu.
Oh I'd love to get Papi on Susu.
How's her English?
Just get her to say, me so horny.
Me robbed you wrong time.
This actress that you know or you know of.
We know who she was was she was in Spanish Dracula
Been great, but yeah, yeah Gilbert let's hear a little your Spanish just to see
All right, Debbie Ribilini, how did you two meet this is kind of romantic oh we've talked about how did it develop into a friendship?
I know you've said he didn't know who you were after you'd met before.
I met him a hundred times.
He's ridiculous.
He's such a sociopath.
Okay, here is a...
He didn't know me even though I'd met him.
His wife is a kind person with actual social skills.
And I got to know Dara instead of getting to know him because it was like
the translator. Well like and this is after you know after the podcast's been
on and we've had him on as a guest and then I get invited to do an episode of
crashing and a guy comes up to me and says hey really thank you for doing this show
Yeah, you're great on it, and I go uh yeah, thank yeah, thanks, and he go he points to himself and he goes
Judd Apatow
For years well, we I used to go up to him after shows. Caroline's was at the Seaport. Yes.
You were always good to your fans after the show.
I can't remember.
Ever performing there?
No, I can't remember.
I could work with someone for like 50 years
and then go out to lunch and then have to be reintroduced.
How many episodes were we in before Gilbert
could pronounce your name correctly?
So right, at least 27 or 28.
We should do a collage.
Two weeks after this show ends, officially ends, he'll have no notion of who I am.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, it won't be two weeks.
No, no.
But I got to know Dara over the years to talk because she was the translator.
See, when Coco the Gorilla is on the Tonight Show, you don't talk to Coco the Gorilla,
you talk to Joan Embry from the San Diego Zoo.
So that's how, so we, Dar and I formed a friendship
and then gradually, he spoke to me and over time,
and then the, well, they know the podcast story.
They've heard how the podcast came together.
Watch Kevin Doherty's little doc that's circulating.
And Frank, I was walking along aimlessly in LA.
Yeah, that's a great one.
And Frank, who I didn't know as Frank even though I worked with him like 50 times on
all his shows, he says, Gilbert.
And I go, some schmuck for TV yeah and and then he says you know
and I didn't know to me was a complete stranger and he says we're going over to
the autograph signing convention you want to jump in the van and I said oh
okay it was like it was like the guy in Silence of the Lambs. I have to move a couch.
But that story we've told too a hundred times.
This is a little dangerous.
Here's a question that goes right to the heart of the podcast.
Ready?
From Jorge Ojeda.
We'd like to have him on the show.
There's your non-English speaker.
Where does Gilbert hear all those stories and rumors from or does he
just make them up oh those are fighting words yeah maybe we should just skip
that yeah yeah that's where does he hear them that's inappropriate usually and and gas station mensurums. A cockfight in Tijuana where he was opening.
If only my agent could get me that.
Now here, see all of these questions are intended to drive a wedge between the two of you.
I don't know why.
Hi Frank, I for one am quite happy that Gilbert has not replaced you with a Scarlett Johansson
robe.
Well speak for yourself.
Is that a woman?
It's Beverly Carr.
Oh I know Beverly.
Thank you Beverly, you're so sweet.
I appreciate it.
I'll send you an extra wedge pin.
Alright Sarah, Sarah Shue Wilson, is there a bad movie either of you are embarrassed
to say you enjoy?
I think we've talked about a lot of those.
Or one you try to defend to others who don't appreciate it.
I mean, we love lots of bad movies.
Oh well, so many bad movies.
Don't you think Dr. Butcher would be one of yours?
Oh yes, that's one of my faves.
I love a movie, you cannot find this movie.
I've mentioned it on the show and I mentioned it to Rob Reiner when he was on the view and it turned white the movie is called
fire sail it was directed by Alan Arkin oh it has this wonderful cast Kay
Medford's in it Sid Caesar's in it Reiner's in it Vincent Gardena is in it
it barely Richard Libertini is in it for Christ's sake I don't it barely saw the
light of day it was made in the 70s it's hilarious and it was written by Robert
Klain who wrote Where's Papa? It's not a very good movie and you've looked for it
in Can't Find It. I can't find it anywhere and it and if anybody within the sound of my
voice can find Fire Sail on anything probably Beta or VHS so we can't even
watch it
Yeah, send it to us, but that would be my answer. I think I have a kinescope of it, right?
And also I want to answer that question differently once I've seen funky monkey
All right, here's now Chuck Robinson says
Have you guys ever come up with your personal top blank movie list, top 10 or top 20, to share on the show or with the group?
My own top 10 fluctuates between 15 and 16 movies, LOL.
Interesting.
We've never done that.
No.
In fact, that was one of those things when I did Turner Classics was like, you have to
pick a bunch of movies.
And I, that was... How much time did they give you, advance notice, when you have to pick a bunch of movies and I I
That was how much time did they give you advance notice when you had to pick those not that much a couple of weeks
And I yeah, and I remember going I oh I remember what was happening a lot is
I would pick a movie and then I'd say do I
Really love this movie or does it sound impressive?
Oh, you're trying to pick it so that you can say look at my chops.
Yeah, yeah.
Look how smart and cultured.
People tend to do that when they put their top ten list together.
Yeah, you know, you'll name like these foreign art films.
The discreet charm of the bourgeoisie.
That's it.
Yeah, yeah.
Which is a good movie, by the way. You had Hamlet on your listie. That's it. Yeah. Which is a good movie by the way.
You had Hamlet on your list I think.
Yes.
But the Mel Gibson version.
Yeah.
We'll do that on a future show.
We'll name, I'll tell you what we'll do.
We'll name our top ten really.
And then we'll name our top ten most pretentious that we want to name.
Oh yes.
To look impressive.
If we're going to go that route we should do our bottom ten. Worst ten movies we've ever seen?
Yeah, that's fun. We will return to Gilbert Gottfried's amazing colossal
podcast after this. Book Club on Monday. Gym on Tuesday. Date night on Wednesday.
Out on the town on Thursday.
Quiet night in on Friday.
It's good to have a routine.
And it's good for your eyes too.
Because with regular comprehensive eye exams at Specsavers,
you'll know just how healthy they are.
Visit Specsavers.ca to book your next eye exam.
Eye exams provided by independent optometrists.
Now back to the show.
There were so many podcasts that do bad movies.
Now here's actually a nice question.
No wedge issues here.
John Atama, who did you expect to refuse or ignore you for an interview but surprised
you by accepting.
So many.
So many.
Oh, anybody who says yes.
We're always taking it back.
Have you heard this podcast?
And then Michael Miller has a related question.
Who was your toughest get?
Oh, that would be, yeah.
But who, you know, Bruce Dern was...
Well we were surprised as hell that Bruce Dern wanted to do the show.
Yes.
He was fabulous.
Yeah, that was, and that was serendipity.
That was because Gilbert ran into him.
Yeah, I ran into him on a radio show.
And turns out he was a fan, and then we asked and he did it and Bruce Dern I remember had one of
those ridiculous memories. Oh he was great. Yeah he was great. He could
name the extras on a movie he did 50 years. He was wonderful and funny and self-deprecating
and that that was a turning point in the show. Oh yeah. When I thought we can get Bruce Dern
to do this show and then we got a little bit of extra show. Oh, yeah. When I thought we can get Bruce Dern to do this show.
And then we got a little bit of extra confidence.
Yeah.
But yes, but when you approach someone like Dick Van Dyke, no, you don't expect him to
say yes.
Yeah, Dick Van Dyke.
Nor do you expect him to sing with Gilbert.
No.
Yeah.
Or Lee Grant or any of the other, Peter Bogdanovich.
I thought we'd laugh in our faces.
Yeah.
But we are so happily pleasantly surprised
Yeah, call Reiner. Yeah, holy speed Norman. Yeah, nor you know prestigious actors
Serious I never thought Matthew Broderick would do it. Yeah, you know, we wrote him a little love letter
I mean after after saying I thought
Ferris Bueller sucked
I don't know that'll do it again. I was looking, not to blow our own horn,
but I was looking last night, you know when we got to the 200th episode,
and my wife and I were at Genevieve, we were compiling the list,
and I get impressed. I look at the 200 names of these people
that Oscar winners and people with stars on the Walk of Fame
and just people that we grew up loving.
Barry Levinson and Roger Corman and, you know, that Oscar winners and people with stars on the Walk of Fame and just people that we grew up loving.
Barry Levinson and Roger Corman and that these people want Joey Pants.
And every time someone says yes, I do get that surprise. Like what?
Me too. And then I get nervous that we're gonna fuck it up.
And inevitably we do.
You're right to be nervous. Even Keith Carradine who we just had on the show an hour ago. Yeah.
I thought he's not busy, he's not gonna you know but you know he came in here and he was full of
compliments and loved Gilbert and was shot out of a cannon and you're so happily surprised.
Loads of fun stories. It's the most rewarding thing about doing the show
Yeah, some of these episodes like him and like Bruce Dern and lots of others when they talk about the craft of acting
I love that. It's great, you know, cuz there's a lot of times they're saying things here. They've never said before
No, I mean we have a we have kind of a body of Hollywood
Lore now that's vast. I keep saying to my wife too they'll never do it and my
wife reminds me that's what you said about Dick Van Dyke that's what you said
about Steve Buscemi and that's what you said about Matthew Broderick. They're
delighted usually after they've done it and pleased with how it came out.
Right. We'll keep trying. We'll keep shooting high. Yeah. So Mike Erickson, how much help does Gilbert get with his movie theme song renditions?
I know his memory is superhuman, but it's getting ridiculous.
That's all him.
No help.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's something I don't know if I should be proud or ashamed of.
Unless you want to credit the anti-ipsychotic medication that you take.
It's probably obvious to listeners that Gilbert has spent hours with a vocal coach.
Oh yeah.
I mean you can hear it.
He does.
The late Marnie Nixon.
Oh my God.
Coach Gilbert up every weekend.
And he does tap with Tommy Toon when he's free.
Frank, here's a one for you. I feel pretty! I feel pretty!
I had a question went right out of my head. That's all him by the way, it is true.
All those TV theme songs all comes to him naturally. We've tried to
fool him with 60s obscure 60s records and he really has I mean he is a
genius for a lot of reasons and I've said that but but he has a touch of the
savant that he remembers a theme song from a movie he saw once in 1972 here
comes the Fox lyrics or that he remembered the goddamn opening scene of
the King of Marvin Gardens which you have not seen in 35 years and he remembered verbatim. The whole speech Nicholson gave.
That's not human.
Yeah, yeah, no, alien.
That's Raymond Babbitt.
Yeah, I'm an excellent driver.
Here's an open, I don't know how to take this, but that's up to you guys.
What was the one that was for me that you skipped?
Oh, the one, oh, which, if you had a, I don't know, it went away.
Okay. I think it was,
oh, here we go, Alex Knight,
what TV show writer's room would you have loved
to have been a part of?
Oh my gosh.
So many. Oh, God.
Well, of course, like Sid Caesar's.
Okay, you know, that's just the standard answer.
Sid Caesar was the, yeah, I mean,
that was across the board. That was insane.
Yeah, or the original SNL,
to be in the room with Zwei Bell and Franklin and Davis
and Ann Beats and Michael O'Donoghue and those people.
Or Gilbert's season on SNL.
Or Gilbert's season.
Yes. Yes.
Yes.
This is the thing about writers.
No matter how bad the show is, and I've worked on many
of them, the writers, there are always very, very talented people in the writers' room.
It's not often the writers' fault what the product is.
Right.
So, Tim Weisberg, here's another chance for us to toot our horn here.
Of all the folks you have either talked to or talked about,
who are you proudest to have introduced to people who may not have been aware of their work?
That's a great question. So many. So many. How about Barbara Felden?
Oh, that was great.
Early going.
Yeah. Barbara was great. But so many. I mean, see that I always say this in interviews, like, when
when I when we first put this show together, I was thinking, well, they don't know who
the people are interviewing are or who other people are referring to. So they're not going
to care. And and then over the years, you get these emails from people who say I
Had no idea who that was you were talking to or the other people you were referring to but I loved it
And I've been looking up their name and clips on it's gratifying
Yeah, when a 20-something particularly writes to me and says I've now fallen in love with Barbara Felden. Yes, thanks to you guys
You know, that's that's writes to me and says, I've now fallen in love with Barbara Felden. Thanks to you guys.
You know, that's that's people discovering the work of somebody like Dick Miller. Yeah,
because of this show. People with big bodies of work. That's very gratifying. And it's
like they have some of them take it like a fun homework assignment. They look up these people's careers. And I can't tell you how many times we'll get
like former podcast guests who go,
oh my God, I've never gotten that much attention
in my career.
Oh yeah, and that's gratifying.
That is gratifying too.
Yeah, and that's mixed up with talking about favorite movies
because a lot of these people that we introduce to people,
we also are introducing some of their movies
that are fabulous that we lost and forgot.
Absolutely.
We're going to get back at some point
doing movies and the mini-ups too, movie recommendations.
Now, I'm going to direct this one to Gilbert.
This is from Gregory Gareizar.
And the question, Gilbert, is why is Frank Santo Padre so
damned handsome? I think he's a perfect person. Could you try to laugh it up a little less? I'm not sure we can continue with the episode. And he doesn't realize this, Frank is sitting on my lap right now.
That's how funny.
Am I Richard or Marlon?
That's the beauty of podcasts.
By the way, full disclosure, that's a friend of mine from college, from film school, Greg Grazar is his name.
Oh, geez.
And he's taking the piss out of me, as the Brits say.
A little bit there.
Okay. Thank you, Greg. A little bit there.
OK.
Thank you, Greg.
I love you, too.
Now, Jack Lokensky.
This is a kind of behind the scenes at the podcast.
We get a lot of swag here.
Jack Lokensky.
When you're at this level of celebrity,
swag just flows in nonstop.
Why you're looking at me?
All right, so the so the question where is the damn question here, okay did either of you actually use the squatty potty?
I'm sorry to say I did not use it
Do try to use the products.
Okay, here's what, can I?
That's Gilbert using it.
Yes.
No, we didn't use it.
No, but it's a good...
I'd like to take this moment to say it's a great product,
even though neither one of us could endorse it.
And scientists have tested it.
Yes.
So, can I take my, as the reader's privilege, a question directed, a question about me?
Sure, go right ahead.
Sure.
So, this is from Jackie Dotson, who's a regular.
We know Jackie, sure.
We know Jackie, Jackie Falk Dotson.
He was one of the villagers on the Andy Griffiths.
That's him.
Yep.
And the question is why do Rayburn and Rupert Holmes look so similar?
Rupert and I have collaborated in ways that few people know of.
There is a little bit of a resemblance between them.
That's a lot of resemblance.
You have a little bit of Rupert Holmes in you.
And I have the same sort of vast resume and background of composing and writing.
And Richard Pryor's got a lot of Marlon Brando in him.
That's true!
Yes!
About this much.
I wish we were visual.
How many of those can you plow through there, Paulie, in six minutes?
Steven O'Neill, are the ethnic slurs agreed upon beforehand or are they come right from
the heart?
Yeah, they come from a committee who has to vote on it.
That was Stephen O'Neill.
Ironically, those are outsourced.
Mark Arnold wants to know, here's a weird crossover question.
Gilbert mentions how much he loved being a guest programmer on TCM.
We just talked about that.
Yeah.
But what if he was a guest programmer on USA's Up All Night?
What great jerk-off movies would he pick?
Oh, there you go, Gil.
Oh, wow.
See, it's funny because those jerk-off films, that was during the 80s, the teen jerk-off comedies, and they never quite lived up to the poster.
They were kind of like those cheap sci-fi films where you see these enormous monsters
and airplanes blowing up.
There were a lot of movies in the 80s, a lot of those teen comedies about naughty teachers
and these kind of things, like with Sylvia Christel with European actresses. There were a lot of movies in the 80s a lot of those teen comedies about like naughty teachers and
Things like with Sylvia Cristel. Yeah with European actresses
Of course, there were a lot of those kind of things. There was Porky's knockoffs. There was one movie zapped
With Scott Bale, right where the poster is very promising and the premise is promising
the poster is very promising and the premise is promising because he's got telekinesis oh I see could rip a girl and oh it's well but I love the theme
so I love the songs in zapped but you know I know I know what a stroke film if
I may that you that you did like which wouldn't which problem possibly it was
too too quality a picture to show up on up all
Night, but it was Matilda May and oh my life
For yes, so there you go. There's one till demand life force. That wasn't the one where she just wandered across the screen naked from time
Girl vampire yeah, oh and there was another film that came out around incidental nudity she'd change a bulb. Yeah, Naked Girl Vampire.
Oh, and there was another film that came out around that.
Incidental Nudity.
There was another film that came out around that same time,
like during the 80s.
And that was, blame it on real.
Oh, sure.
Well, Stanley Donnan made that.
Oh, yeah.
And so Michael Caine and Joe Bologna.
Right.
And I forget the girl's name.
Well, I think it was Michelle...
Johnson?
Michelle Johnson?
Yeah, yeah, I think so.
Somebody had something like that.
Yeah, she was hot looking.
Okay.
That was Mark Arnold who also says thanks for all the laughs and congratulations.
So was Rafer Johnson, by the way.
Also.
Uh, yeah, let's see.
George Seminara, question one, where do you get the best herring?
Bill Macy.
You got to check with Bill.
Bill Macy, check with Bill.
Check with Bill.
Macy.
Question two, on the Christmas show, was that Gilbert's Peter Laurie?
Whoever it was was stupendous.
Did you do Peter Laurie?
Yeah, he did. Oh, yeah. you do Peter Laurie? Yeah, he did.
Oh, yeah. Oh, thank you.
Yes, he did. Yes, of course.
Door Seminara, that was Gilbert's Peter Laurie.
You don't mind me, by the way,
making you act like a trained monkey
and do Peter Laurie for the guest, do you?
Yeah.
Because normally, I have such self-respect
when I do this podcast.
Gilbert, how about a little John MacGyver
for the guest?
Yeah. But, you know, he just did it for Keith Carradine, When I do this part Gilbert, how about a little John MacGyver for the guest?
But you know, he just did it for Keith Carradine and and the guy was pumping his fist in the air. Yeah
So Rob Smentech who's one of the man he is one of the listeners Society. Yes moderators. We thank and founders to Frank and Gil What's your favorite joke? Oh
My gosh. Oh geez. I don't know if I have a
favorite who was it who told us about I'm gonna get this wrong now no kidding
somebody's well you know there's the it's a really dirty joke but it's the
one about the kitchen sink the one that that's a funny joke. I'm going to tell a clean joke.
My nephew told me when he was four or five, my nephew Lucas, and I just thought this was
the best joke coming from a kid or anybody else.
He said, who's Irish and spends the year in the backyard?
Patio furniture.
Patio furniture.
Thank you for that and I think Gilbert's joke that he
tells in the documentary he had a hat is as good a joke oh yes that's a great joke
yeah that's a good that's a good a joke as any yeah that was my dad that was my
dad's favorite joke in fact one time I told it to Diane Cannon. Really? Yeah.
You know.
It's beautiful. It's horrible. You'd almost think that was Diane Cannon. You'd think.
Someone else will never do the show now.
Who else?
Here's a bit of a left-handed kind of,
let's see how this goes.
This is for Gilbert from Dale Whiteley.
Does Gilbert see newer horror movies, and what does he think?
Oh, that's funny, because I haven't kept up on horror
films, or most modern films. Like Like I've gotten lazy as far as
going out and and I even get sent screeners and I always mean to watch
them. I generally catch films when I've been when one has to come on when I'm
just switching around. Do they still have spectra vision in the hotels?
Do they still have that?
Oh yeah!
They still have that thing that they don't have that anymore.
He only watches the jerk-off movies.
Yeah, when he's in a hotel he can't do anything.
He doesn't know how to use his phone.
No.
Heaven knows he's not prepping for a podcast.
I'm gonna make you watch, it's not a feature,
but I'm gonna make you and Dara watch
the first season of Fargo on DVD.
Oh, okay.
With starring our friend Keith Carradine
and it's wonderful.
And you'll thank me.
Yes.
All right.
Well, last one, Paul, we're running out of time.
This is a good one.
Zoran Samardzija.
Samardzija.
Samardzija, is this somebody we know?
I've seen him on the listener's society.
Why, he's outraged.
Why haven't you done an episode about green acres
that is outraged yeah justified there's an angry mob outside the building right now
with appropriately enough pitchforks yeah that's right so that's about it, I think. Reader mail, listener mail. That was, that was.
Letters, we get letters.
That was, oh, that was the listener society.
And you know, we'll do the ones we didn't get to in a future episode.
Yeah.
But that was fun.
Yeah.
That was fun.
And we didn't have to do any work.
Yes.
Which is my ideal joke.
I spent hours preparing for this.
Thank you, Raybone. Number 10 with a bullet.
I think this was a nice way to celebrate 200 episodes with our fans.
Yes.
And we'll do it again.
I don't want to say when we hit 300.
I do not want those words to leave my lips.
But if that day should come.
Yeah, it's just a shame that we don't generate a little more laughter in here when we talk about it.
If that day should come.
And we will pick a favorite question, a best question, and that person will get a...
question and that person will get will get a
if that thing shall come
I'll fuck Richard Pryor
in the house
but it won't be personal
it'll just be business
thank you Raybone
thank you Verderosa thank you Dara, thank you Listener Society,
I'm not thanking you.
Verderosa adds a lot of class.
He does.
Shall you, shall you take us out?
Then?
Oh.
People have to go home.
Okay, this has been Gilbert and Frank's Amazing Colossal Obsessions.
Thanks to everybody for 200 and all your wonderful questions.
Thank you, Ray Bohn.
Right, a little exit music for you here. How different this voice is! That's my singing voice.
