Starting point is 00:00:00 Oh, what's happening, people, before we kick off today's episode? Number one, I want to say, hey, thank you for being here. How's it going? You're beautiful. I imagine you look way better today than you usually do because you're about to listen to this podcast. But look, we need your support here at the Spitballers. Head over to SpitballersPod.com and you can get all the information you need to help support this show ways that you can get access to these episodes early
Starting point is 00:00:27 and a bunch of other things like joining the spit tank that's where we go for our priority selection for fun questions for this show so head over to spitballerspod.com what happens when three buffoons give life advice, explore unrealistic situations, and give random topics more thought than they probably deserve?
Starting point is 00:00:57 It's the Spitballers Podcast with Andy, Mike, and Jason. Be-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-cha-cha-cha! Oh! that works. With classic start, very refreshing ending. Yeah. I liked it. I'm a fan. Andy, Mike, and Jason, welcome into the Spitballers podcast. What is it about something refreshing that makes you exhale like a dragon what the
Starting point is 00:01:27 yeah oh what was that good could it be refreshing without doing that like if could you have just this incredibly refreshing drink and then just go i don't think i like that's the definition of what makes something refreshing. Do you go? It's the contrast between how tired and hot and sweaty you are. And then that sound, which would mean like cool and refreshing. And you fix the problem with being all hot and sweaty. So in your head, you know, it's hot. So you're making an onomatopoeia of steam. You're pouring the cold water on the hot rock, and it goes, ah. Because that's what the rock would say.
Starting point is 00:02:13 The rock is very refreshed. It's the man in the desert. They see the water, and you finally get that drink. It's salve. The most important thing here is that we were able to use onomatopoeia correctly in a sentence. Well done, Michael. That's what I'm here to do. It was what The Rock would say.
Starting point is 00:02:33 There's that huge hit song. What does The Rock say? Yes, yes. You can find us on Twitter at SpitballersPod. SpitballersPod.com is the website. We invite you to head over there, find out how to be an official Spittwad supporter. I'm going to level with the listenership.
Starting point is 00:02:49 I mean, we haven't been together for a recording in a little bit of time. And that's, but we hit it real quick with rock jokes. I mean, the rock jokes were ready to go. We're back, baby. Super fast. We had pre-recorded some episodes. Spittballers don't get rust. We're always-recorded some episodes. Spitballers don't get rust. We're always ready for terrible dad jokes.
Starting point is 00:03:09 Well, the range of possible episode success is very from bad to kind of better than bad. I mean, it's really not much of a difference. It's a low bar. It's a low bar. But we appreciate everybody out there listening, subscribing, supporting, leaving us a review on Apple Podcasts. It's time for some Would You Rather. Would you rather?
Starting point is 00:03:37 Before I throw a would you rather question in your way, I will check in with Al. Al Borland, are you with us? I'm with you okay and and you would say that even though it's been a little bit of time since we recorded a new episode um we're we're we're on it 10 out of 10 so far 11 oh perfect all right would you rather this question comes in from the website presley a question. Would you rather look super buff with your shirt on but look obese when it comes off or look obese with your shirt on but be super buff when it comes off? Oh, man. You know, Mike's always made the joke that if he was super buff, he would never wear a shirt. That's true. So This would be just being buff for Mike.
Starting point is 00:04:26 I don't know why you're calling it a joke. Well, so I guess it's an easy answer for you. But for the rest of us, Mike can't go into public places. Then I guess he won't care. He won't care. I don't know if it applies. I'll be walking out front waiting for my friends. And they're like, Officer, there's a very shredded individual just walking around.
Starting point is 00:04:49 They're like, sir, what are you doing? Just waiting for my friends looking buff. What's wrong with that? I have a shirt on in public far more than I have a shirt off in public. more than i have a shirt off in public but i'm i'm realizing so so it makes me think like taking the advantage of looking good in a shirt that would be really really nice um but eventually you do have to take it off yeah and then reality reveals the reveal this is a tough this is a tough question oh my my situation was like where's the most prominent place in public that you don't have a shirt on if you're a fella it's the beach it's at the pool and it's like okay do you want to be looking real buff but then you can't take the shirt off at the
Starting point is 00:05:43 at the pool why does that guy always swim with his shirt on? But then I remember, dude, you just wear some super skin tight like you're going scuba diving. You basically got spandex on. You got some kind of wetsuit on showing off all
Starting point is 00:06:00 the muscles. It's still a shirt. That guy wears a wetsuit at the public pool? Yeah, well, he's going in the deep end. still a shirt that guy wears a wetsuit at the public pool yeah well he's going in the deep end like a rash guard a rat that's where i was looking for a rash when you're surfing and because then you're like oh i care about my health but i also care about uv rays i really don't want to get a sunburn so i wear this shirt you know you ever ask me to take it off what about the uh you know the doctor's office sometimes they ask me to take it off what about the uh you know the doctor's office sometimes they ask you to take it off there right i mean to oh how does it work
Starting point is 00:06:29 how does the magic trick work if it's just a lift i imagine whatever you lift it comes pouring out it just pours out your belly as soon as you start lifting yeah just goes down wait a minute we're gonna get these shirts that's what it should be whatever your cup whatever is covered is ripped so if you're wearing a tank you've got chubby arms you've got to wear you've got to wear a long sleeve shirt if you want to be fully cut that makes this question impossible to take anything but being ripped shirtless because here's what i think he swims in his sweater. Mike's OG idea of always being shirtless. Look, if I'm at home, I mean, I pretty much already don't have a shirt on.
Starting point is 00:07:12 Now we'd have all of these recordings with me shirtless for sure. All of our live events shirtless. Well, can you do the paint on shirts? Would that count? Is that? Oh, absolutely. That should count. Yeah, that's a that's a great loophole. Yeah. You i don't know you could get into are you wearing a shirt no but
Starting point is 00:07:29 you're not no you gotta have arms through something like i think that's my definition of a shirt is my arms have gone exactly in and then out my definition of a shirt is my arms have gone through something that's what makes it a shirt. I've gone up in the shirt, and then I've exited the shirt. No, I get it. That's the point. So you do not have a shirt on when it's painted. So if you take the always ripped with your shirt off, and you paint on a shirt, you're good to go.
Starting point is 00:07:58 You'll get into a mall. You'll get into a Target with a painted on shirt before they come. You can paint a tux on and go into a fancy restaurant. Oh, my goodness. Excuse me, shirt. Your nipples are showing. Oh, you see that, huh? But they're pretty ripped, right?
Starting point is 00:08:13 I got ripples. And then you have to act really shocked. Oh, my gosh. What happened to my shirt? Oh, my goodness. Okay, next question. Well, did we answer? I'm taking the shirtless muscles.
Starting point is 00:08:28 I'm taking the shirtless. I guess I'm with you guys on that one. Once I realized I had to wear a turtleneck in the other one. Vishal from Patreon. From now on, every movie you watch will be filmed in another language. Would you rather have subtitles or English voices dubbed over the film? Oh, man. So every movie you watch, it's got another language,
Starting point is 00:08:51 and you have to enjoy it with either subtitles or dubbed voices. Ugh. Yeah, it's very easy for me because I strongly prefer the subtitles. I don't like the overdub. My brain knows. I mean, well, obviously it doesn't't match but just like your brain says something does not compute it's like when you are in vr and it's moving but your body knows you're not moving is there's just something that doesn't jive but when it's it's the original language it's fine i could read it's not a
Starting point is 00:09:21 problem yeah the problem with that is you you have to be focused the one thing i've learned is that you can't watch a a subtitled film with half focus because then you don't know what's going on it's it's impossible i can't you know i am one to play on my phone whilst you're not really watching it oh sure i am i'm a multitasker and he's always said that with a badge of great honor like i can play what is it jewel uh whatever any of those mindless games i'll play them all day on my phone while watching a show and i could tell you what happened in both of them but not if it's subtitled the problem is to put this to like an actual test put a movie in front of you you have never seen have you play your candy the drill blitz and we'll and we'll see what information you're
Starting point is 00:10:11 actually retaining i will call who the murderer is halfway through because i'm so into it in tune with that movie uh the the i think the biggest problem is i feel like when there's dubbed voices, they don't have good actors do those. That's what I was going to say. It always feels like the worst actors doing this voiceover work, they're not going out and getting Tom Hanks to do VO work. Tom Hanks has better things to do. Exactly. All the good actors are busy doing real jobs. Acting?
Starting point is 00:10:44 Yes. Yes. Well, I will say this. If you go watch the Studio Ghibli movies, which are, I mean, those end up getting dubbed over all the Japanese animation movies, like Howl's Moving Castle, and they have them act and do the voice differently. And I don't know, watch watch these compared to what you're imagining that this actor would do there is a very distinct acting style when this is just
Starting point is 00:11:14 for i guess for but that feels okay for animated like that feels better for animated because like my worry is that half of the acting that you're watching every movie you watch you're not going to hear the voice i'd rather hear some foreign language and get all the expression, because I feel like we can perceive the expression in that other language. And then I'll read, like you said, we put subtitles on almost everything now too. I do find it to be a slightly different experience though. Sure. Because it takes a little bit more, like you're focusing, you have to read it. So there's time that you're not looking at the acting right but there's there's the benefit though because when i do not speak the language
Starting point is 00:11:50 i have no idea if these people are tremendous actors or actresses like i'm just like wow you're really really good you're really really foreign it's so great you're so foreign the emotion you're putting there's like i don't know it's your emotion you're watching it and you're putting your emotion on top of it. You know, I know my answer to this, and I know it for one reason. For one punch. One punch man taught me that you can watch a show with subtitles, and it is excellent.
Starting point is 00:12:17 Oh, is that a fully subtitled no English movie? Yes. I think they have subtitled of it, but the OG is better, man. One punch! All right, Thomas. By the way, I'm going to go subtitles at the bottom. I think they have subtitled of it but it's the OG's better man WAPONGE by the way I'm going to go subtitles at the bottom Thomas from Patreon would you rather have to tip a maximum of 10 cents
Starting point is 00:12:34 every time you eat out that's brutal or never be allowed to take part in the pre meal complimentary bread and chips at a restaurant. Wait. So, like, you go to a nice Mexican restaurant, chips and salsa.
Starting point is 00:12:51 That's not allowed. I go to a steakhouse. I go to Texas Roadhouse. You don't get their butter. But they have, like, a whipped cinnamon honey butter, though. Yeah, they're served, but you can't touch them. Oh, my word. So, there is an awkward moment with the the waiter or waitress there where they come back they're like what's wrong they didn't touch anything but in the situation where i eat two orders and the
Starting point is 00:13:18 waitress has so kindly brought me heaps of chips and bread. I tip 10 cents. That is right. That is right. That is, ooh, man. Well, a maximum. You can tip anywhere from zero to 10 cents in this scenario. Now, to be clear, I would tip nothing. It is so much.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Oh, because it's more insulting. Oh, 100%. If you're tipping 10 cents. All right, you have to tip 10 cents. Yes, that is so much more insulting. How many times can you go to a restaurant as the 10 cent tipper? One time. You don't think you get a grace period of the second time they maybe don't remember you?
Starting point is 00:13:55 Maybe if you stagger your times, like one's a lunch, one's a dinner. I mean, you're hoping for a different staff. I never worked in food service, so I don't know the tales that they are telling in the room where it happens of like, this dude gave me a 10 cent tip. I know exactly what you do. If you're in that situation, you are taking the name down of that waiter or waitress, and you are asking on your next visit, is this waiter or waitress there? And maybe you get away with two then. Yeah. So two times you're like oh the meal
Starting point is 00:14:25 how was it sir the meal was spectacular i will never see you again that's right i would have an extensive collection of wigs because you know real nice looking just crazy wigs that change my appearance enough to where i can go back because that is the problem, right? You find the place you like. They'll catch you. It's crazy wig guy again. He only tips seven cents. Yeah, that might alert even more. Just what is this guy with this long punk rock hair?
Starting point is 00:14:57 And a Yosemite Sam mustache. Now, can I get around this by just setting my Apple Watch or my shoes on the table as the gift in lieu of money? So every single time. Absolutely. I'm giving an object away. But it has to be at least as nice as an Apple Watch. He left his rhinestone belt on the table. He left me five shares of Tesla.
Starting point is 00:15:21 What a nice man. Oh, that is a very nice man right now. That's a good tip yeah i look i mean it always comes back to weight loss for me but um i think how's that being allowed to tip will also stop me from eating all those delicious rolls and chips there there's actually a benefit to my body, even though there is a punishment to my mouth. I'm going to take the... I will tip and I will not partake in the pre-meal deliciousness. I don't know if you know this. Sometimes when you let yourself get hungrier,
Starting point is 00:15:58 you tend to eat more of the main meal. That's the old don't shop at the grocery store while you're hungry trick. Yeah. When you eat the appetizer, it is a little bit more difficult to finish the main meal. But I will say this. For you. All right.
Starting point is 00:16:13 What do you guys think turns into more caloric intake? The appetizer, where it's unlimited, it's free. We've all done the chips and salsa routine where by the time your meal shows up you're like uh-oh yeah mistakes were made or if i if i skip the appetizer now i'm probably always hungry for dessert and i'm going to end up eating far more
Starting point is 00:16:38 desserts where which side of that coin would you rather be on of overeating the appetizer or always end up getting an apple tartlet? If it's a caloric question, if this is which one is worse for me, then it's the appetizers. Because when I get my slice of pie, I got a slice of pie. And when it's done, I don't order another pie. But when I finish that bowl of chips or those rolls and my meal's taking a little while guess what i get more chips more rolls please and i'll just it's it's the never-ending well it's rude if you don't eat it we've discussed this yeah exactly tommy from twitter wants to know would you rather have a really, really good pizza or a really, really good hamburger?
Starting point is 00:17:27 Maybe this one will be simple, maybe not. It's simple for Mike, so I'll sit back and wait. Yeah, Mike's going to answer a hamburger. Yeah. Everybody has to answer hamburger. Really? What is a really, really nice pizza?
Starting point is 00:17:41 Like a Chicago deep dish meat pizza. Yeah, I that's that's a very good pizza yeah yeah i like them but i'll be honest and i know i'm gonna lose oh no half my fans here i prefer thin crust to the big to the big lose half my fans uh no i i think look i like deep dish i'm not against deep dish but it is overrated when it comes to just what it is people freak out about a chicago deep dish like it's you know the mona lisa and it's really just a real thick heavy slice of pizza that's usually stuffed with a little bit too much stuff i prefer a real nice thin crust to a real nice deep dish i i like a real i probably take i think you're right i think i would take a like new york style now do you want new york style do you want hand toss where it's
Starting point is 00:18:37 just this guy it's a medium it's medium thickness uh yeah i mean, New York's kind of like that. I mean, they're not pure thin. Oh, no. Real New York pizzas. Oh, no, they are. They're like rolling up like a burrito. You fold the pizza. I guess hand tossed.
Starting point is 00:18:53 Yeah, okay. We're all taking a burger. Is that what we learned? Yeah. Because a real good burger is unbelievable. It's the tops. Al, are you with us or are you going pizza? No, I'm 100% with you.
Starting point is 00:19:04 I had the same thoughts. Pizza is pizza to me. I love it, but it's all the same here's what i know really really really really crappy pizza's delicious i mean this the the cheapest one you go and you get those 10 pizzas for 10 out of the freezer aisle on at the tortillas or whatever they are so good i mean i've never seen an ingredients list as large or as dangerous as tortillas pizza but they are so good and if you get i mean i you know i know i don't in the west side we've got peter piper pizza right that's like a place where you go to play some games and then pizza is an afterthought. It's just a piece of cardboard with some cheese on it. They're so good because what's a bad pizza?
Starting point is 00:19:52 That doesn't exist. So, yeah, burgers, you can have bad meat. You can overcook it. You can undercook it. Yeah, no, perfect burger. All right, let's get into the Situation Room. The Situation Room. All right.
Starting point is 00:20:12 Al, do you have a preference on which one of these I go with first? No. Got any favorites? Okay. I haven't read them, so we're entering the Situation Room blind, as we always do. All right, this one comes in from a supporter of the show, a patron named toilet exploding poops. That is their name.
Starting point is 00:20:31 That is their name. And I respect that. It's a great name. You are in a department store trying on a new coat that you may purchase while trying on the new coat. You realize a different customer has now tried on your original coat that you set on the rack next to the other coats and it's looking in the mirror to see if it fits what is your next move oh you gotta talk it up man you gotta tell that
Starting point is 00:21:02 that person how good they look in that thing i want to build it up that's that's my go-to is as soon as i see this it's hysterical to me i'm having a good time i can't believe someone's trying on my coat i want to be like yeah that looks good that is perfect for you what's your end game though oh my end game is letting them know yeah that's my that's my coat you can't have it i just want to build them up and have them fall in love with this coat because, hey, at the end, maybe they're like, I'll give you $100 for that coat. It makes me look so good. I thought you were doing a con man sales job here. Whatever the price of the coat, the new coat, you're trying to double that so you can buy a new coat.
Starting point is 00:21:43 But how do you get your cell phone back out of the pocket? Cell phone in the coat pocket, huh? I'm a pants man myself. What makes me smile is knowing that, I mean, you don't come up with this situation unless you've been in this situation. Like a coat you take i mean i guess a coat you don't go into a uh changing room you just try it on right what if the person that's trying it on is just some really sweaty overweight stinky just looks like came right in off the street from the construction job and is now trying on your wool-lined inside coat.
Starting point is 00:22:32 At what point do you not want the coat back? Yeah, then you say, could you please just give me what's in the pockets? That's yours now. Enjoy your coat, sir. See, here's the thing. We're in Arizona. We don't have a lot of coats. What is a coat, by the way?
Starting point is 00:22:51 What's the difference between a coat and a jacket? That's what I would like to know. Oh, wow. How would you define that? That's a great question. A jacket seems like something that is under 50 dollars seems like this is a little bit fancier uh i don't know that that is the real baseline differentiate the burlington coat factory wait there's something called a coat jacket too
Starting point is 00:23:20 right oh no no what is that's right in the middle exactly 50 dollars the coat jacket is on the money tax included it's 50 bucks it's just a coat or a jacket sir but that's a coat jacket i'm surprised you didn't know that but i don't have any like oh this is my this is my coat this is my favorite coat this is the like i don't i don't i feel like if i lived back east i'd have a favorite coat that's what i'm saying so i don't i feel like if i lived back east i'd have a favorite coat that's what i'm saying so if you're trying on these coats that must have been your favorite coat that this other human is now wearing now what if this other person they're not super sweaty they're not disgusting they just like it and so they walk up to the front lanes they leave
Starting point is 00:24:01 wearing your coat do you do you track them down you're talking about a coat thief i mean they're not they didn't pay for it they didn't i think they're trying if they didn't try to pay for it the register they're going to the register but they have left do you i mean is there a situation where you would just let them just i think in that situation if they're going to the register they're trying to pay for, which means I'm just going to watch this Target employee try to find the price on this coat for a while. That's what I'm going to do. You're going to get the popcorn? Yeah, I think I'll enjoy it.
Starting point is 00:24:30 And then they just type in $39.99. Oh, no. Dang it. And they've paid for your coat. Yeah, haven't you ever gotten that? They're like, what? How much was it? I've been asked that before.
Starting point is 00:24:42 Yeah, for sure. Oh, yeah. And you're like, I don't know. $8? They're like i don't know $8.99 they're like okay you're like crap would you have believed me if i had said $3.99 that's the when you give them the number and it's actually more than what it really costs in the store and you're like dang it okay so this person checks out successfully with your coat yeah what do you do then i've paid for it sir this is gone you guys you shake your hand and you say you win you just say you win and walk away coatless oh man and that's expensive too because they said this was a coat oh that's true over 50 john luke from patreon you uh you three
Starting point is 00:25:19 have been commissioned to run the world's first inconvenience store. Oh, finally. What kinds of products do you sell? I sell full-gallon milks that expire tomorrow. Okay. That's number one on my list. Don't you sell two-gallon milks that expire tomorrow? As big as I can find. As big as you can get.
Starting point is 00:25:41 I can tell you everything is wrapped in those plastic cases where it is physically impossible to get in unless you have an industrial grade knife to cut in. That is 100%. And the reality is most of the time when you're opening that package, you end up with a scar. Yeah, you do. It just happens every time. You end up with a scar. the scar yeah it's it just happens every time all all items have to be bagged like produce with those little pull-off bags that come in the in the produce section where you can't get them apart from each other then you have to wrap them up but when you do not have twisty ties when you get to
Starting point is 00:26:16 the register there are no bags this is we do not provide paper or plastic. You wish. You wish here. Load it up into your not cart. Okay, because we don't have carts either. No, you have baskets, but they're very tiny. Yes, small baskets. Really, really small baskets. Oh, my goodness. Or we do have some bags that we can load up, but they've got the breakaway handles.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Yeah. These are going down for sure. Now, what about the layout? Is there anything we can do? Are the registers at the back of the store? Yeah, you can put the register in the back or separate it. Three registers to the far back left, three registers to the far back right. Oh, do that like department stores do.
Starting point is 00:27:04 I hate that oh where i never know where i'm supposed to buy things because it's like there's a like they're doing that on purpose it's so weird uh self-service raw meat uh counter obviously we don't hire for that you do it you're the butcher you're you're the butcher is the name of the store that's what the name of the store is you're the butcher you come in we the store. That's what the name of the store is. You're the butcher. You come in. We've got some dull knives for you to use and some meat that's out. Yeah, it's a community meat pile, and so just not the most sanitary. All right.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Michael from the website, you walk outside. New situation, guys. You got to reset from you're the butcher. You walk outside. New situation, guys. You got to reset from You're the Butcher. Michael, from the website, you walk outside and determine that two animals are dying. You only have time to save one.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Would you rather give CPR to the walrus or the Heimlich maneuver to the porcupine? Oh, my goodness. What? How does one Heimlich a porcupine well that is entire that is the situation you're in mike i mean what i don't what's the downside of the cpr to the walrus it's just that they're big and that's a big mouth man they've got giant tusks that you're putting your face right in front of yeah yeah i mean but they're incapacitated. The walrus is... Is there a worse animal to give CPR to, like a snake? Oh, gross. Than a walrus?
Starting point is 00:28:29 Oh, that just gave me the heebie-jeebies. You've never resuscitated a snake before? Not yet. I don't want to. I mean, that is gross. I feel like you're resuscitating a snake. And you exhale into their mouth. They just straighten out like you're blowing up a balloon animal.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Yeah, they do. Or explode if you've got great lungs. All right. Here's the problem with the walrus. I killed it. The Heimlich maneuver to the porcupine, you know what the outcome is. It's not great. Yes, you do.
Starting point is 00:28:57 But the walrus, they've got really big lungs. So this CPR is at least an hour. You're doing this for a long time. I can Heimlich this porcupine without putting the porcupines back on my chest. I feel like you ever watch Dumb and Dumber, you know, the legs into the belly maneuver. That's not technically going to work. But I feel like if I put this porcupine on it, if I put the porcupine on its back and I use my hands to really get in there and heimlich it out you know does that not count it's not the heimlich yeah that's true the heimlich is
Starting point is 00:29:32 from behind you put your arms around the front and then i think the heimlich is for humans though so it's always not a heimlich cpr is for if cpr works on a walrus, you can Heimlich a porcupine. That's what I'm saying. This is just easy science. But how can you possibly pick the porcupine? I don't know. How can you possibly pick? It's not going to kill you, right?
Starting point is 00:29:56 Has anybody ever died from a porcupine impalement injury? I'm on it. I mean, because I feel like, yes, you it's like falling it's like would you rather give let me ask you this way cpr to a walrus for an hour or fall on top of a cactus yeah that's that sounds terrible i'm not falling on the cactus but the cpr is gonna be gross yeah but i saved a walrus and he might bite your face off well yeah but i guess he's unconscious an unconscious walrus you ever seen a walrus full of gratitude um i have not they're very hug friendly jason is still efforting this has anybody died of a porcupine injury i porcupine
Starting point is 00:30:40 quills can kill that's from the smithsonian so i assume that really is about humans i also saw a headline when lions attack porcupines humans suffer i just saw a headline lion kills porcupine but is quilled to death i'm not doing cpr if that thing could kill a lion, it could kill me for sure. I guess I'm kissing a walrus. Yep. Come here, Andy Reid. The Spitballers Draft. All right. Today on the Spitballers, we are drafting the best animated movies.
Starting point is 00:31:26 Now, here are the rules, gentlemen. Four picks. One Pixar. One DreamWorks. One Disney. And then one flex option. So you can pick anything you want in that flex option. But you have to have at least one Pixar, one DreamWorks, one Disney.
Starting point is 00:31:46 This is a lot of movies to choose from there are a lot and mike because he scattered his way into our hearts to start the show he gets to kick off this draft yes today's episode sponsored by sprite i can't wait to take a goofy movie all right look it's look, it's all yours if you want it. I mean, we know how the pollsters feel about a goofy movie. It's not very strong. Yeah, they did not work out for you. Mike has the first pick, so I'm curious which one he's going to take
Starting point is 00:32:19 because when we have these slotted-in spots where you have to have one of each kind, there's some strategy. There is absolutely some gamesmanship. But the flex spot, the wild card, that really mixes it up because now you're worried that somebody's going to take yours. It does. One Pixar, one DreamWorks,
Starting point is 00:32:33 one Disney, and one flex. And I am nervous about the flex. I don't know why Jace is shaking his head. I'm shaking my head because I... There's infinite cartoons and animated movies, man. There's no way I am taking the one that you want. If I am, then congratulations.
Starting point is 00:32:50 You have picked the best movie. But I am going to take my flex pick with my first pick because this is truly the one animated movie. If I didn't get it in this draft, I would be very upset because it's the best animated feature that's been created. It is recent, but I'm going to take Spider-Man into the Spider-Verse. It is.
Starting point is 00:33:13 It is. And that's how I know it wasn't for you, Jason, because you didn't really care for it. Oh, I loved it. Are you kidding me? I thought you had a problem with the end. Oh, I did think the end got a little out of control
Starting point is 00:33:25 With the animation but I've seen the movie like five times But into the spider verse I went into that movie I didn't know much I think it came out streaming on my birthday And we didn't see it in the theaters And it was like okay well it's my birthday We're watching this
Starting point is 00:33:39 And I was blown away The animation is unbelievable It is hilarious. It is great for kids. It is great for adults. It is the masterpiece that they created. Okay, that was on my list as a wildcard choice. So I'm surprised it went so soon.
Starting point is 00:33:58 I had no choice. I'm not confused here. Your wildcard can be another of the other categories. Yes, it is i believe i just wanted to make sure that we didn't have a separate category okay it was yeah all right so jason you're up mike has spider-man wow number one overall i assumed that he would be taking the largest powerhouse that has ever been made in animated movies is toy story pixar's flagship the creation of computer animation it's fine not only is it fine the movie is fine awesome it's iconic more than anything else out there i can't
Starting point is 00:34:38 think of any any animated movie that is more iconic than toy story so i will take toy story and yeah i mean it's so iconic they turned it into its own land in uh in one of the disney parks oh wait that wasn't toy story would you like to say anything it's yeah it's not spider-man land either no no i'm just saying for pixar movies that one of them turned into a full land you were just calling it the most iconic so i was i was stepping in are you trying to say that it bugs do you not know that it's cars land man oh cars land oh yeah okay but we're talking about the movies right or are we talking about disney parks now tell me this uh how many rides are there for cars and how many rides are there for toy story how many rides are there for Toy Story? Because Toy Story is going to win that one.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Let's see. Cars Land. Now we're in it. So Cars Land is what? Three rides? I think there's three Toy Stories as well, right? Nice one. All right.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Anyway, Andy, it's to you. All right. I thought Toy Story makes sense. I would have liked it to slip through. I didn Andy, it's to you. All right. I thought, yeah, I mean, Toy Story makes sense. I would have liked it to slip through. I didn't expect it to. I thought that would be the 101 before Spider-Man was picked. I'm going to take my Disney. I'm going to take The Lion King with my first of my two picks here.
Starting point is 00:36:02 And then I've got to pivot to another. I guess I could take another disney as a flex but i'm not going to i'm actually going to take wally oh i'm gonna take wally from pixar all right i like much beloved so lion king and wally for my first two the iconic wally uh yes i all right so that that's back to me now? That is correct. That is correct. All right. Got to play the strategy game here. Yes, you do.
Starting point is 00:36:32 Try to think what is Mike going to go with. I'm so tempted now to go cars as my flex. Based on the theme park. I lock up the Disneyland theme park in its entirety. The problem is I'm not sure that that's my favorite Pixar movie left. Oh, brother. I'm tilting already. All right. I'm going to go DreamWorks here.
Starting point is 00:36:59 All right. Because while I think there are three great options for DreamWorks, I mean, there's no wrong ways to go there. I don't think I'm going to take what you want, Andy. I'm going to take what I want. It's awesome. The movies were fantastic. I love How to Train Your Dragon.
Starting point is 00:37:17 Yeah, I don't like that this has happened. I almost took it over WALL-E, and I'm devastated. I thought it would slip back through to me. They're my favorite animated movies. It was not making it through four picks, my man. Yeah. They're my favorite animated movies of any series. How did you not take it?
Starting point is 00:37:33 It's so good. Because you're playing the guessing game. I didn't realize you guys liked them so much. Can we restart? Honestly, I was surprised that I said I wasn't taking Andy's, but apparently I was. You were absolutely. That's my favorite. They're great.
Starting point is 00:37:46 The last one, too. Hidden World. Oh, unbelievable. All right. So I am on. This draft sucks. I am up. I have already taken my flex, so I need to follow the rules of the draft.
Starting point is 00:38:01 That's right, Mike. Follow the rules. Let's see. Favorite thing to do. Rules of the draft. That's right, Mike. Follow the rules. Let's see. It's your favorite thing to do.
Starting point is 00:38:04 So, oh, man. And it's tough because you both could still take a Pixar movie for your flex. I'm in a bit of a pickle over here. You know, having the flex in there, this is a good idea. It took us 117 episodes to figure the flex out. But it keeps us on our toes. Very nice, Al. You finally did something good.
Starting point is 00:38:25 Oh, man! That was actually a really nice compliment you gave Andy. Thank you. My compliment. I wanted to be praised for it. It wasn't really about Al. No, this is about you. Alright. I will start with my first pick here.
Starting point is 00:38:42 I'm going to go into the DreamWorks world. I will take what my first pick here. I'm going to go into the DreamWorks world. I will take what I believe is the second best franchise from DreamWorks. There is another one that people are probably screaming for, but I know where you're going right now, Mike. I can fill it in for you. You might call it, but I will take Kung Fu Panda. It is a sensational round of movies. The television show, even though it's not Jack Black, is actually still-
Starting point is 00:39:09 Pretty solid. Yeah. It's absolutely watchable. So I'm happy with that. I would have been much happier had I gotten the How to Train Your Dragon. All right. So I have- That's amazing.
Starting point is 00:39:18 We all love that the most. Because we're dudes and we like dragons. Yeah. They were awesome movies. the music is so good the music in those movies is the best all right so i'm down to disney i'm down to pixar uh i feel like i feel like on disney there's there's like at least five five to ten that could easily be drafted here so i'm gonna look over at pixar toy story would have been my top choice for if i was going to pixar are we gonna leave this draft
Starting point is 00:39:52 without you taking a goofy movie i'm taking a pixar movie here my man all right because i know i could take goofy movies my last pick i just didn't i didn't know if you had pivoted off no no no the polls were so oh no i'm decisive no look i'm a man i'm a man of my own heart man of the people i will do what i have to do uh i'm gonna take coco here i it's just i don't know if it is actually my favorite pixar movie because when you're asked that question it's a very difficult one to answer but it's probably the one i've seen the most and it's the one that i can still sit down i'm like oh coco we should watch that okay so what's your full roster now so far i have spider-man into the spider-verse kung fu panda and coco i knew kung fu panda was 100 gonna be your pick had to lock it in and coco
Starting point is 00:40:43 you've spoken highly of multiple times. It's fantastic. So this is a dream team for you, I would say. We're doing alright. I mean, if it was just like me picking 1, 2, 3, 4, it would be How to Train Your Dragon and Toy Story. Yeah. I am building my dream team,
Starting point is 00:41:00 Andy. You spoke too soon. I have the 101 of all three categories. I've got my 101 on Pixar Toy Story, my 101 on DreamWorks with How to Train Your Dragon. I'm going Disney with my 101. It's Aladdin. Aladdin was the movie growing up. You know, that's...
Starting point is 00:41:17 All right. My children have done the play. It's got a new remake. I love everything about everything about aladdin it's in my list of three i wouldn't put having a remake down as one of the top features of a movie though they've remade a lot of movies i'm just saying like it has a remake is what you said it's modern and it's a throwback okay i cannot believe we we have all fallen hook line and sinker to disney we're letting them get away with this yes which is just and i love it man what do we do
Starting point is 00:41:52 what if we just remake every movie that we have ever made that was successful and we will take the money made and multiply it by 30 and we're all like oh yeah i will sign me up i will be there the moment it comes out are you kidding now there's just anticipation for the next one that they remake yeah they're all happening oh yeah little mermaid come on man is that happening oh yeah oh gosh all right um so jason your team with your- My team is the 101 Toy Story, the 101 How to Train Your Dragon, and the 101 Aladdin. Okay. And right now, I have Lion King and WALL-E, and I have to make my last two picks. So, I have to choose a DreamWorks movie, which means I have to-
Starting point is 00:42:38 There is a giant that is out there, just so you know. Don't get it wrong. Well, Mike, I don't know what you're talking about so i have to take uh i'm gonna take my wild card with the third pick which is another pixar movie and now i'm starting to tilt yes yes to a movie um crap i'm going to take i'm going to take finding nemo with the third pick okay all right so i think that that movie uh just above the other one i was thinking about from pixar obviously there are a lot of them so i'm gonna go finding nemo and then i have to close it out with the dreamworks and my number one dreamworks was how to train your dragon and my number two is kung fu panda which means my number three is
Starting point is 00:43:28 and was especially the first movie was outstanding had the comedy that hits the kids and the adults i see mike grimacing but i still enjoyed the movie quite a bit so we're talking about shrek yeah so i don't know why you don't like it so much Mike but I don't care I don't know man I went back I just watched it again and it was just I don't know it didn't stand the test of time I liked it back when I was a kid it's cause they don't have a live action remake isn't it it's probably
Starting point is 00:43:56 embarrassing get Mike Myers in a giant green suit please oh gosh actually the Broadway musical is fantastic Lion King WALL-E Finding Nem Nemo, and Shrek. Okay. All right. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:44:10 Jason, you have one more 101 you got to slide in here. There's not another 101? The 101 Flex is not there for you? It is there, but the problem is there's too many great ones. I was hoping you guys did better so I don't have to choose between all these great movies and try to like i mean it's just not it's not fair to me um but man oh they're so good i can't believe these are undrafted um you're on your what are you i'm on my last i got my flex i could take any any movie i won't. All right. That's out there.
Starting point is 00:44:47 Because I'm not last, I'm not going to say these two movies that I can't believe aren't drafted right now, but I'm going to go with a movie Andy hasn't seen that blew Mike and I's mind because it's one of the best animated movies of all time, even though I thought the actual animation was so stupid when it first came out, but now I love it. Despicable Me. It is phenomenal. I'm taking that over a couple of just giant brand powerhouses
Starting point is 00:45:17 because Despicable Me is just too good. Go watch it, Andy. Yeah, I'm in on that. It deserves to be drafted. There's a lot of them. All right, so my Disney one. I'm going to shock everybody here. By not taking a Disney movie.
Starting point is 00:45:34 I am taking my Disney pick, my final pick. I'm closing out my draft. A small little movie kind of came out to little fanfare. It has grown into a cult classic. I will take a goofy movie. I knew that was coming. Alright.
Starting point is 00:45:54 Alright. I feel like Mike genuinely drafted a roster of animated films here that he could watch these four in sequence forever for all eternity yes 100 i could and uh jason you've got a nice team i still i do i still i mean despicable me was your real weakness there because it didn't it never really demanded me to watch it like
Starting point is 00:46:21 obviously had it been good enough i would have seen seen it. You know what I mean? That's not DreamWorks, though. Is Illumination part of DreamWorks? Or is that, like, their own thing? I do not know. Not my own thing. I don't know the answer to that. Oh, but the DreamWorks movie, Andy, you should have taken, is Captain Underpants.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Captain Underpants is freaking great, man. My kids watched way too much of that. Yeah. I have not seen it. Oh, my kids watched it, enjoyed it too much, so it was terrible. No, I just didn't. It wasn't as refined as something like Shrek. I'm surprised that Monsters, Inc. didn't go in the Toy Story.
Starting point is 00:46:56 Really? Monsters, Inc. was phenomenal. See, Up was the one I passed on. When I passed on Up for Finding Nemo, that was a battle of the heart. And then, really, what I was deciding between when it came to Despicable Me is Moana. Moana is so good. Yeah, that was the one that my Disney was good. Would you take Moana over Mulan?
Starting point is 00:47:15 Yes, for sure. Yeah. Moana is, if I hadn't taken Goofy Movie, it would have been Moana. I could watch Moana on repeat. It's a perfect movie. have been a Moana. I could watch Moana on repeat. It's a perfect movie. It's a great movie. I know you don't watch movies, Al, but is there any omissions that we should know about from your list?
Starting point is 00:47:34 No. I don't think so. I don't know. I wasn't given a lot of thought. I've never seen a movie. Okay. Let's figure out what we learned today. What did we learn today?
Starting point is 00:47:46 Oh, I know what I learned. What'd you learn, learn mike i learned the difference between a jacket and a coat oh fifty dollars fifty dollars uh i learned that you don't want to be your own butcher it's very inconvenient a lot of ecoli i learned that one of the foundations to being a good movie is that there was a remake made of it later on. That is true. All right. That is it for this episode of the Spitballers Podcast. Thank you for supporting the show. Your reviews, they mean a lot to Jason in particular.
