What happens when three buffoons give life advice, explore unrealistic situations, and give random topics more thought than they probably deserve? It's the Spitballers Podcast with Andy, Mike, and Jason.
Bow to the bow, ding, dang, da, bing, da, bing, bang.
Oh, man. Bow with the bow. You almost, yeah.
I did it.
You made it through.
That's not bad.
That was not too shabby.
That's fine.
You rocked out like a kid, you know?
Welcome in to the Spitballers podcast.
So excited to have you with us.
A brand new episode.
Thank you for bearing with us in recent weeks.
Yes.
We had to skip a week, had some family fun.
We're back, baby.
Let's call it that.
We got a review on today's show, Would You Rather?
That's a great question, and we're going to do a film festival today for our draft.
So we'll keep you in suspense, but it's going to be fun.
And by suspense, I mean it's probably in the show title.
So we'll keep you in suspense, but it's going to be fun.
And by suspense, I mean it's probably in the show title.
Also, it's going to make you want to spend the rest of the week until the next Spitballers episode comes out just watching greatness.
Unless you're like 20 years old or younger.
No, even for the youngins.
No, not even for the youngins.
Absolutely.
Absolutely. This is the oldest man thing you've ever done, Jason. This is really. even for the even for the young no not even for the young and absolutely absolutely not this is
this is the oldest man thing you've ever done jay this is really no way you don't even realize what
you are doing no way my 12 year old kid i know what's on my list and my 12 year olds would love
every single thing no they wouldn't i know for a fact they love half of it i know for a fact that
you're their dad and they might like some of it, but when we were in the office compiling our lists of things
that we want to draft, Jason, you let out the quintessential, they just don't make them
like they used to.
Yeah.
Well, that was a joke.
And you aged 10 years on the spot like did you go up watching
watching a lot of 70s and 80s movies oh no those were way too old okay only old people like that
well we appreciate everybody out there listening
subscribing and reviewing the show let's read one right now
So let's read one right now.
Review a Soros rags.
This one comes in from Zach Davenport from the United States.
The Spitballers changes lives.
Five stars.
The Spitballers podcast is many things to many people.
For some, it's an easy drive into work. For some, it's a road trip time consumer.
For others, it's gym time background comedy.
But for me, it speaks truth into my life.
It showed me how evil and wrong I was for enjoying carpeted bathroom floors and back to front wiping.
Who likes carpeted bathroom floors?
Thanks to the Spitballers podcast I now know how lost I was.
Thank you Spitballers for changing my life. I will I was. Thank you, Spitballers, for changing my life.
I will forever be in your debt.
You're welcome, Zach.
Yeah, we appreciate you.
The conversation that we had, and this was early on in the show,
but the revelation that many, many people out there discovered
of the standing wipers and that they're out there.
Some of my closest friends that I went to school
with, it became
a topic of conversation and it was
like,
I've always done that. I've never thought
of doing it another way
and it was, so yes,
we're out there changing lives.
Wiping is one of those things where
you don't watch other people do it.
No, if you were not taught at a young age, then you will never be taught.
But who teach?
Do you teach the stained?
Like, when you were doing the potty training, did you say, okay, now here's the part of.
Here's a variant.
Here's the part of the poopsie where you stand up.
Well, I mean, think about it. And then you have a wipe. Bad habits happen, man. Here's the part of the poopsie where you stand up.
Well, I mean, think about it.
And then you have a wipe.
Bad habits happen, man.
You develop a habit.
Yeah, I guess.
I mean, a lot of times, though, once your kid is becoming potty trained,
don't you have them stand up and turn over and make it easy to wipe?
Well, yeah, that's when you're wiping them.
Right, but that's what they're learning. Which is still my preferred way of.
Yes, that is my preference as well.
I mean, if there was.
Tiff!
If we're picking.
I've done a duty!
Oh, man.
In sickness and in health.
That's right.
So, yeah, I mean, we've opened up a lot of minds.
Unrelated, Jason's wife has left him.
Unrelated, he needs somebody to wipe him um i'm presenting okay oh we're moving on would you rather i like how much you thought your own joke was funny right
noah from patreon would you rather listen
to all the music from now on at half speed or two times the speed the timeliness of this question
is hilarious to me because i was just in a car last night with some friends and we were talking
about how one of the people in the car is like so well i want to say well read but it's not it's
well listened i mean has heard every podcast right yeah the person that's heard every they know what's
going on in the podcast world and so i made the joke i'm like oh do you listen on like four times
speed or two times speed it's like no no i don't i don't do that and then we started to wonder
who listens at half speed that's a feature on all the platforms.
But who and how and where are you listening at one half?
What's the benefit?
Other than it's like it's very funny to hear our conversation at half speed.
The scats at half speed.
We've been told it sounds like some fellows who are out very late.
Yes.
Right.
But who is the people?
What's that for?
The half speed is novel for a good 10 second laugh.
You know what I mean?
That's what I mean.
There's no real reason?
No, there's no.
I mean, if you were like, wait, what did they say?
Hold on.
Enhance.
And then you could slow it down and crank the volume but there is
really no practical uh reason for that and if you're listening to music this way correct me
if i'm wrong mike you're the you're the uh music mastro here yes that's what they call me
either way whether you speed it up or you slow it down, I feel like it's ruined.
Yes.
Generally speaking, there's ways to do it now with audio processing,
but the pitch and everything is going to change.
The key of the song will be different if you go half speed or at double time.
Back when we had cassette players and things, you could manipulate the audio, so to speak.
Yeah, get Alvin singing.
Yeah, you get the Alvin and the Chipmunks.
And I actually found there were some songs that if you speed it up, you're like,
this is interesting.
This is cool.
Making it even more upbeat.
But going down to half speed sounds just terrible.
I don't listen to blues and jazz,
which I feel like the only things,
like if you really slow it half to half speed,
it would be like, okay, okay, I'm chilling here.
Can you imagine only time on half speed?
That in ya.
Who can say what?
Oh, in ya?
Yeah, in ya.
Half speed, would you die before that ends?
It would sound like a bunch of monks.
Yeah, I think if you speed it up, you're going to have some songs that maybe become even
better bangers.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Like, oh, that drum beat.
Yeah, if only this were a little faster.
And at least, like you were saying, Andy, at least you can consume more.
Right.
Or get it over quicker.
There's people out there with hour-long records.
This is now an hour and a half.
No one got time for this.
Not my tempo.
So we're all going speed up, right?
Oh, yeah, for sure.
Addison from the website, would you rather have a garage door remote that only opens your garage or only closes your garage?
The opposite must be
done from the button inside the garage um well that's easy i mean that that's not really a tough
one no that's super easy yeah i mean you would want to open it now because when you're coming
out at the beginning you you would just click the button you're right there so am i am i yeah
there's something i'm confused about here.
Because then you could just get in your car and open the garage.
Right.
Wait, no, no, no.
If it opens.
Okay.
Hold on.
If it opens every time.
Let's just go with that.
It always opens.
But I've got to close it by hand.
Then when I'm leaving for work.
So then you've got to do the laser job.
Would you rather be inconvenienced when you're leaving the house or when you arrive at the house?
Yeah, we were reading it like there was a clear path that there was no inconvenience.
Yes, that is how I saw it.
And I think all three of us got suckered into being like, if I only open it, it's fine.
Owl, did you not think through this?
I looked at him like he was an idiot.
It's so obvious.
But then I started walking through it.
I'm like, wait. He's never an idiot. It's so obvious. But then I started walking through it. I'm like, wait.
He's never an idiot.
Then I would still have to go back inside.
Did you, sidebar here, did you guys, I mean, we're old.
We know this.
Did you ever grow up with friends that didn't have the remote door opener?
I mean, I had friends that did not have a remote opener.
We had to open it every time and close it every time.
I would never have had them as friends.
No, I did not have. I don't't recall that that's how my house was we had we had a key
for the little knob and then you'd turn like so when you left lift it by hand you'd get out of
the car and run and close it further your mom yep yeah was it wood no okay what material was
like to dive deeper aluminum and Was prohibition still going on?
What garage is this?
I mean, this is what?
Did you have cable?
We did.
Oh, wow.
We splurged there.
All right.
Now I know why you had no garage door opener.
We had a garage door opener.
I mean, I remember garages that didn't have the laser sensor.
Right.
Oh, those are called death traps.
When that garage is coming
down it's it's coming down respect the garage that's why i asked whether it was wood because
they used to make them in wood and then without a sensor in wood that's it you're done i mean that's
i will bring up a farewell so a situation that i have been living with uh simply due to
it's one of those things that you totally forget this is a problem
until just the moments when you're dealing with the problem,
and then you forget, so you never actually ever fix it.
Okay.
So my garage button, at some point, the actual physical button that covers the trigger,
essentially, was broken.
So now that's that's gone
and it's just the the metal i don't know the technical term but so you have to it's pushing
pushing the switch without an actual button on the outside but what's we've never known about
garage door openers and i don't know if this is universal somehow the external button it like
helps with the depth of how far the switch goes in
because things get crazy with my garage opener.
If you push it in too far.
Oh, is it a double click?
It goes up, and then as soon as you hit the laser, the garage door starts to come down.
That's called closing on your car.
And it comes down upon your car.
So you have to push it the perfect depth
or when you're backing out, the garage is
going to come down on you. And then when
that happens, then your
remote no longer opens the garage
door from the outside. How long have you
had this problem?
Like a week? We're just waiting
to sell the house. This is pre-pandemic
my man.
Oh, goodness.
Those are so years.
Yes.
I know a guy whose garage door came right down on him.
Yeah, he's sitting between you two.
Wait, your garage door smashed you? Did you not know the top of his car is cracked glass?
Yeah, the top of my car is crushed.
No.
It has been for six months.
Both of our cars, me and the wife, the garage has hit our cars multiple times.
Okay, so you talked to Andy about the-
What kind of garage door?
Dude, my garage doors are legit, okay?
Not to brag here.
Not wood.
We're talking steel.
Yeah, look, we've got the wood paneling over the front, and it's so doggone heavy.
When I first moved into this this house the sensor didn't work
it it's is it did you is your button broken no the button if you break off the button but in one
of the garages um it came down it came down and crushed a blower you know like the leaf blower
oh it just crushed it crushed that I mean, that thing was toast.
Wait, is there a laser on this?
That's what I'm saying.
Or is this going to kill one of the kids?
So that got fixed afterwards.
So it came down, and it hit the object on the ground and did not retract.
Oh, it stayed closed.
I was like, what is that thing over by my garage?
And it was half of a leaf blower.
It forced its way down?
The other half was on the
inside and then it was flattened to the ground like a cartoon where the garage comes down so
he has a guillotine brand garage that's right the guillotine garages are all the rage but yes so i
was i was backing out of my garage uh-huh and because we have like a little rv garage and so
that's where i saw that the door had been left open so i reached down to my garage door opener to close that one and so i accidentally hit the i'm backing out of my garage when i see
the other one okay so you're on you're halfway out halfway out and i clicked the button to close the
other garage door okay but i also clicked the button to close the garage door I was coming out of. Okay. So it came down right on top of me.
And I just assumed, like, I'm backing out.
Sunroof destroyed.
Yeah, I'm backing out.
And I assume I have destroyed my garage door.
Like, the garage door is right.
Car versus garage door?
Okay, hold on.
Hold on.
Pause.
Pause.
Garage door comes down.
Mm-hmm.
Did it, like, continue to try and go down?
Or did that actually go back up went back
up it hit after a little shoot you know big smash i was like oh no i ruined my garage door i i pull
out i can't even see i literally can't tell where i hit the garage door the garage door is invincible
my car is wrecked like it's gotten in an accident because from the top you do not mess with the guillotine
garage doors man they are they are hefty this is a wonderful long detour to tell you why the
manual garage doors were really good i mean all these buttons and uh yeah you didn't accidentally
close close your door on your car my my thought here to some to some of the question and answer it is that i
would rather have it open when i get home i'm generally you're coming back from a drive you're
tired that's when i want it to open up not when i'm leaving when i'm leaving i got energy okay
to be inconvenienced but you're in a hurry yeah you could be in a hurry and you got me you got
to do the the laser jump got to do the laser jump.
Yeah, I mean, the laser jump is getting harder the older I get.
And sometimes you'll, once out of every 50 or whatever,
you're going to trip it, and that garage is going to go back up.
You're going to go, ugh.
Yeah.
I got to go back in and close the garage again. You ever try to do the laser jump, and you get about halfway into the run,
and you're like, I'm not going to make it.
Dude, you guys.
And then you just stop, and it goes all the way down. Listen. I've never done that. You ever done a laser jump and you get about halfway into the run and you're like i'm not gonna make it dude and then you just stop and it goes all the way down listen you've never done a laser jump buddy i am
the pro at the laser you've got here's what you got to do you got to have the confidence of indiana
jones okay you just walk you don't have to run you don't have to beat this garage door you just
walk yours you do well those are high risk i I play with fire, my man.
Guillotine.
And then all you got to do is like a little, you just do like a walk with a little scissor kick.
So you just go and you flip your leg over and then you flip your other one over.
Yeah, this is things that short people say.
Oh.
Well, I didn't realize we were fighting today.
That does make sense, we have a we have
a clearance issue up top yeah i gotta get low i've got another three feet it could come down
we're limboing man oh i wouldn't i wouldn't lean backwards go forward
is that my problem i always do the limbo on my way out all right um maggie maggie from the website has a question for us
would you rather have someone cut cut you in line for a roller coaster or at the dmv oh
i mean now the last question we thought it was very clear it was not this one's very clear very
clear it has it's the roller coaster. 100%. It has to be.
Because when someone cuts in front of you in the roller coaster, as furious as you get,
that person, perhaps they end up being the last person onto that particular train.
But at the most, that's adding three minutes to your weight.
And worst case scenario is you're still in line for a roller
coaster that's oh i didn't factor that in i'm having a good day uh-huh i'm at a roller coaster
park this is great do you know how angry i am at a dmv that's what they call them roller roller
coaster parks you ever been to a roller coaster park they're the best um but at the dmv when you walk through the doors oh my gosh
anger overcomes you yes just it doesn't matter you could be having a great day you walk through
the doors there's a force field there are several dementors in there for sure sucking the joy out
of everybody and one person in a dmv line that's 30 minutes yes i have always thought like you know
part of it it's just you're doing
the dmv thing but why in the world can government buildings can they not paint them like why do we
have to have like no like post offices uh the dmv they're not welcoming places because they are just
it's white it's the cheap linoleum floors with white walls. There's no personality.
I mean, put something on the walls, man.
No natural light anywhere.
Get a mural up there.
There really is not natural lighting in government buildings.
No.
It's just-
Because it's part of the control.
We can do better.
And you know that they've skimped on the lighting, so it's like some flickering lights.
It's just a really sad place.
It is. Bring up- Man, something's just been driving me crazy. Oh's just a really sad place. It is.
Bring up.
Man, something's just been driving me crazy.
Oh, man.
Talk to us.
Talk to us.
Here we go.
Lights that make sound.
Oh, my gosh.
The buzzing, humming light.
You turn the light on and it's like, I should not be able to hear light.
Light is a visual thing.
You, sir, have jumped into the wrong sense.
There is.
Yes.
I have five of them, and you employ one.
There is a restaurant here.
Shout out to L&L, Hawaiian Barbecue.
Not a sponsor.
But when you go in that store, this is running on for four years.
The buzzing of the lights in that building drive me crazy.
Clearly.
Yes.
No, they've been buzzing since we got in this office.
Which means people live in that buzzing place.
I have a confession.
Oh.
There's a buzzing light in my kitchen.
Oh, you haven't fixed it. And I haven haven't fixed it because you learned to live with it i hate it every time i turn the lights on i
hate it al do not help him now is this because it'll never get fixed if i don't it's out of
reach that's exactly right like you would you need i would have to bring a ladder in is that
because you're so short from the girl i walked right into it. I was already building that up in my head, too.
Dang it.
What an idiot.
I thought I was going to joke about being too lazy for a ladder.
Instead, I got shorted.
Dang it.
So you don't like buzzing lights, eh?
No.
Oh, they're the worst.
I don't like being shorter than you two, either.
I don't think anybody does like the buzzing lights.
I don't think that's ever been a feature.
It's a feature like buzzes when you turn it on.
Not everyone can hear them, though.
I mean, the one you're talking about, I think everyone can,
but there are lights that emit a frequency that not everybody can hear.
Yeah, just mutants.
Yeah, they're the only ones that can hear us with the superpowers.
Al, do we have time for one more?
We got nothing but time. We got nothing but time we got nothing but time all right uh he's paid by the hour it's a two-part
episode have we ever done it to be continued before um all right big lonnie b from patreon
all right would you rather never be able to sit on a toilet for the rest of your life
what you can still squat well ironic with the discussion earlier or never lie in a bed the rest of your life oh come on i mean i i mean how
how do i not choose you you lay down is it lay down or lie down you lie down you lay down you
both you layeth down You layeth to bed.
You do that every day.
Every single day. Yeah, but let me just bring a wrinkle in there because my first gut was like, you've got to be able to lie down.
Yeah.
However.
Lay down.
Yeah.
Layeth.
However, we think of not being able to sit on the toilet in all of the good normal regular movements.
But you're in a pickle, right?
You're having a bad day.
Right.
You've got a long – you're going to spend some time in this room today.
You've got to squat for all that?
You've got to squat for a whole session?
Yeah.
For a whole bad bowl session?
Man, I didn't think about –
Think about how strong your quads would be.
The power of the legs and what's necessary there for a bad time.
There's a benefit.
I mean, your legs will get stronger.
Yeah, or they'll cramp up, and then you're falling in.
I mean, those are the two outcomes.
Every once in a while, you will have to take a standing break.
Yeah.
Which is just a full stand.
You just go from a crouch to a full stand.
You'll have no choice.
Which is emasculated.
And it'll just be either you're wiping all the time or it's just mush.
Now, I imagine that I have already built blocks up on each side of my toilet.
So I'm standing elevated, straddling the toilet so I can squat.
Because of the shortness?
No.
You can't squat and be above a toilet seat.
You guys aren't that tall, are you?
Yes, you can't squat and be above a toilet seat. You guys aren't that tall, are you?
So hold on.
What are we defining squat as here?
Work me through this.
Okay, okay.
Why do you need blocks?
You're putting blocks on.
How tall are you?
Okay, so listen.
You're putting like individualized blocks on like the left and the right of the seat to go up yes because what i'm seeing is not just kind of
crouching down to like a uh a slightly higher than chair position i'm picturing what i want to do
in my world is i want full squat i want um like you know the squatty potty you get your knees up
high and you're not sitting though i mean you've got to be resting on your legs. I want to squat to where I am, like, full knee bent.
You don't get to build a knee.
Knees are all the way bent.
There are.
Look, we are very westernized here.
We're living with our big, fancy toilets.
But there's a lot of cultures that, like, it's a hole.
And you squat.
Yeah.
That's what they do.
And, like, they're very in that culture doable they're
because they grew up doing it right and we're these but you don't get to build out your squat
toilet you have to this is yes anything existing toilets you figure out how to poop in a squat
right now you don't get to build nothing then i can't do it yeah well you're gonna have to find
a way could you stand i don't think i could stand and poop guys i have another question with this if you are not sitting okay uh-huh because normally what look everyone's everyone
knows everyone poops yeah you pull your pants down you keep your shirt on because you're sitting
right but if you're in a standing position with your shirt and you got a shirt that's longer
are you going to have to fully
disrobe like full nude because you get a little uh wee wee on the shirt yeah or or the backside
i mean i don't i don't want to get i mean if you're standing i don't need the shirt down i'm
just saying like you may have to do you might have to pull the shirt or a roll you gotta roll yeah
you just do the thing where you pull the front of your shirt up over and put it behind your head.
That's what I'm rocking.
I'd rather be naked than do that.
Oh, no way.
You know how cool you look when you got the front of your shirt behind your neck?
That's an awesome look.
And you're like this.
It's restrictive in the armpits.
It is.
It gets a little tight in the armpits, but that's going to help you with your posture and the squat.
Oh, man.
Your squat-sture?
Your squat-sture.
I'm still going to squat.
When you sit it down?
Well, now, on the flip side, does this mean I can just go to bed on a couch?
No.
Really?
You can go to bed in a chair on the ground.
No, because you're still...
Okay.
Okay.
chair on the ground no because you're still was it okay i assumed by bed they're they're trying to mean like you don't have a comfortable place to that's not what it says it says would you
rather never be able to sit on a toilet not like i can't still sit on a chair or never lie or lay
if you're gonna poop in a chair if i if i have to sleep on a couch for the rest of my life sign me
up i i love sleeping on the couch i do too i love sleeping i get fantastic sleep on a couch for the rest of my life, sign me up. I love sleeping on the couch.
I do, too.
I love sleeping on the couch.
I get fantastic sleep on my couch.
Now, do you have a recliner or are you laying across the-
It's a section.
Oh, yeah.
It's the best.
Sign me up, man.
Somehow-
Really?
No couches in this situation.
Yeah, see, that's what I figured.
Lazy boy's fine.
Okay, well, then they're great.
Lazy boy's-
You could sleep in a lazy boy?
Oh, heck yeah, I can sleep in a lazy boy.
I can get that done.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, absolutely.
Why couldn't you sleep in a lazy boy, but you could sleep on a couch?
Because you're actually flat.
Oh, dude, I incline my bed every night.
I'm with my...
I couldn't sleep in a lazy boy.
I can't sleep flat anymore.
You can't sleep flat?
Oh, no.
Are you a back sleeper?
Because if you're a stomach sleeper
i start on my back but yeah i love an inclined sleep
walking in on someone on a lazy boy stomach sleeping
is he breathing i i was gonna say like when i when i would sleep in a chair it's been murdered
i would turn sideways i would sideways sleep on a chair. This man's been murdered. I would turn sideways.
I would sideways sleep on a lazy boy.
This is not good for your back.
Oh, man.
Yeah, no, you've got to be a back sleeper if you're going to do that.
The visual of walking in on someone on a lazy boy.
Face sleeping?
Face down.
Because they're not sleeping.
They're just listening to this movie.
What?

That's a great question. Turn the lazy boy around.
Peering over the edge.
Sorry.
Go on.
Let's have some great questions here.
Evan from Patreon.
At what length of time does a vacation turn into a place where you live?
Hmm.
I think you can have a month long vacation.
I've never had one.
It sounds awesome.
But I feel like people do that.
You can definitely have a month long.
Right.
I think you could have i think
you could have a six weeker oh man for sure for sure for sure do you still call that a vacation
or do you call that an extended stay uh i mean people go on more than six week trips in their
motorhomes is that a vacation if your house comes with you yeah that's an excellent well it's not
your house for those people that is an excellent some an excellent. Well, it's not your house for those people. That is an excellent question.
Some people it is.
Yeah.
Then it's not a vacation.
Okay.
That's obvious.
Now that he says it like that, it's pretty obvious.
If that's where you live, you're never on vacation.
But do you live in the motorhome or do you live in that environment,
that city, that whatever?
You live in the motorhome.
Yeah, you live in the motorhome, man.
Yeah, for sure, because that's where you are.
That's where you sleep.
Yeah, where do you live?
Nebraska?
Well, I mean, to be fair, you wouldn't get mail at the motorhome.
You'd get mail in Nebraska.
You'd have to have a P.O. box.
You'd have to.
Can you deliver to a mobile home?
Can you get an address for a mobile home?
Now I'm picturing them on
the road driving and the mail truck and there's an exchange of mail that's while it's moving
delivery it's like a relay race transition yeah that's pretty cool um i would take that
so answer so like uh if you if you said hey i going to go spend six weeks in Europe on a trip,
I mean, that's a vacation.
Okay.
So we got to go longer than-
I think three months is where I'm going to draw the line.
Oh, man.
I would love a two-month vacation.
Where do you need a visa?
That's a sabbatical.
How long do you need a visa?
That's a sabbatical.
A sabbatical is-
Is a sabbatical a vacation?
A sabbatical is-
If you're coming back.
Not a vacation.
No.
A sabbatical is- Is a break. Yeah. That you're going to take somewhere is not a vacation. No, a sabbatical is a break.
Yeah.
That you're going to take somewhere else.
Because I feel like a vacation is a break.
Not usually, because when I go on vacations, I come back more tired than when I left.
Well, you've got kids.
Yes.
A sabbatical is technically a period of paid leave, granted.
It's like a vacation vacation like a paid vacation
sounds pretty similar now can you if you are unpaid right yeah yeah yeah maybe you're just
out of work okay gal can you right can you take a vacation i got plenty of work or are you always
on vacation no money oh are you always on you're always on. Ooh, are you always on? You're always on vacation from work.
Hmm.
Now, is it?
Yeah.
So is it?
If I go someplace for three months, do you guys think I'm on vacation or did you think
I moved there?
I mean, if I know you're coming back, I guess I still would say you're on vacation.
But at the three month mark, do you start going?
Is Andy, is he coming back?
Yeah.
Six months?
So if it's long enough that people start asking the question,
are they actually coming back?
Then you've moved into you live there now.
I think a vacation is entirely dependent upon the purpose.
That's it.
It can be any length of time.
Do I get mail in this new place?
Is that the line? Oh, that's a great can be any length of time do i get mail in this new place is that the line
oh that's a great line to draw in the sand you can't get mail on vacation if you do you that
means you need people to know you've changed address at that yeah uh i i but i guess i'm
thinking like you know you if you go somewhere for a year right right? A year. Yes. That's too long to be a vacation.
Unless the entire year is a leisurely trip.
If I'm going for leisure and for entertainment, that is still a vacation at any length of time.
But if you go overseas for like school.
That's not a vacation.
No, it isn't.
I think it's. Can I make i make this more complicated oh please do josh from the website also asked what's the difference between
a vacation a trip and a journey okay okay let's get deep it's a combo look vacation to me it's a
it's a round trip situation you're coming you're coming back from where you left i feel like a trip
is also included in a round trip because it's in the name.
But a journey feels like you're going from one part of the map to the other part of the map, and that's the end of it.
Yes, journeys are one way.
They're one way, right?
You're going to be different at the end of a journey.
Yes.
That's the whole point of a journey.
You're going to Mordor.
Your character has been transformed.
You don't know if you're coming back. You might you might come back but when you come back you're not going
to be the same that's right because you've been on okay that one's easy a journey yeah a is a trip
a vacation with multiple stops no a trip is a vacation where there is no fun a trip is something
where you had to go on. It's obligation.
It's I went home for the family reunion.
That's not a vacation.
The little Einsteins disagree with you.
There's a wedding someplace.
There's a wedding.
I got to take a trip.
Because the little Einsteins go on a trip
in their favorite rocket ship.
Heading to the stars.
Yeah.
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
I didn't think about the little Einsteins.
But that's not a vacation.
That's with a purpose.
Yeah, I mean,
man, I do feel like taking a rocket ship
makes it a vacation
because that'd be super cool.
So is it, yeah.
If it's a trip,
you have,
the reason is
not just hanging out.
Yeah, there's a little bit more business.
It's a business trip.
You can write it off for your taxes.
If it's a business trip.
Yeah, a trip is not fun. A vacation is fun. Yeah. So let me ask you this. business it's a business trip you can write it off for your taxes if it's a business trip yeah
a trip is not fun a vacation is fun yeah so it let me ask you this final question what if some
of the i mean you've been on vacation where it's not fun no it's a trip oh when you come back you're
like yeah did you just get how was your vacation i didn't i didn't get one i was on a trip now i
feel like you could go on a road trip with your family right and that would turn into a journey
yeah because you are not coming back the same person that's true but what if you have fun like you could go on a road trip with your family right and that would turn into a journey yeah
because you are not coming back the same person that's true but what if you have fun then when
you get back was it a vacation and what if you went to see journey perform oh man that is
that's the circle of life i believe is what that's called this show's so stupid it is dumb
it's a dumb show mr Mr. Odshu from the
website, what is the ideal time for dinner?
This is a very,
very good question. Yeah, and there's only one right
answer.
Because it says ideal. Hold on, hold on.
It says ideal. What is the ideal time? We're counting
to three and we're saying what time.
Wait, wait, wait. Okay, hold on. Do you have your time?
I have what I think the
world thinks and I have what I think. No, this is your answer. Yes, I have mine. This is a one, wait, wait. Okay, hold on. Do you have your time? I have what I think the world thinks, and I have what I think.
No, this is your answer.
This is Andy Holloway's.
Yes, I have mine.
This is a one, two, three, shoot answer, okay?
Okay, just the number, right?
Yes.
One, two, three, five.
6 p.m.
I went 6.
6 p.m.
I went 5.
That's because you're 70 years old.
People are still at work.
I don't even get off work until 5.
9 to 5. Let me ask you this. Let me't even get off work until 5. 9 to 5.
Let me ask you this.
Let me ask you this real quick, real quick.
Hold on.
5.30 was the real answer.
Let me ask you this, Andy.
Have you ever gone at your ideal time to a restaurant and had any problem getting a seat?
No.
No, because nobody's eating dinner at 5 o'clock.
Do you want to know why I eat at 5?
Because you're old.
Because I don't want a problem getting a seat.
And I got in that habit a long time ago.
I was like, man, I go at five.
By the time I actually get my food, it's 536.
I'm a genius.
I just love it, Alex.
I got to leave work early today.
I want to have dinner.
No, we're going to need you to stay till six.
I need to see my family.
Now that I say it out loud, 5 is not about right.
It's 5.36.
I wanted to say 6.30.
I wanted to say 6.30, but then I'm too hungry.
That's too late.
See, I think when I was going to answer what the world thinks,
I was going to say 7 o'clock.
What?
You want to know why?
Yeah.
Because that's when people eat at restaurants.
That's dinner time in my house.
That's dinner time in a lot.
See, how you grew up.
I grew up like, you better, the friends go home,
you better be ready to eat at 5 o'clock.
Sure, okay.
And so then that transcends your own life story.
But the world, you go look at when people are booked for dinner at restaurants.
When they're on the road for dinner, it is always 7 o'clock.
I think 6.30 is the peak restaurant dinner it is always seven o'clock i think 6 30
is the peak restaurant dinner time i think he's 6 25 but owl is right like dinner time in the
right household actually skews more towards seven but that's because 5 30 rolls around and we're
like what's for dinner i don't know someone should figure out what we need to do for dinner and it
takes till about 7 p.m until someone makes a decision and either something has been made or food is
being delivered at what part of the night does your door dash get canceled and you have to make
new plans not 9 p.m is where as soon as 9 p.m rolls around that is where you start you know
there's a chance that this is getting canceled because you might order but then the kitchen's
going to be closed once they get it.
I mean, I'm very experienced.
They should add a reinforcements checkbox to the DoorDash
where it just auto-orders you a second meal from someplace.
Reinforcements?
And you call it reinforcements.
I like it.
Now, what if you want both?
Well, you'll get both, hopefully.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
What was that?
Ideal time for dinner?
I think we figured that one out.
6 o'clock PM.
We got time for another one or two?
We got nothing but time.
Oh, gosh.
Yeah, he's going to be here until 6 or 7 PM.
I'm checking the cameras now for this.
How about this?
Tara from Patreon.
What's the difference between a rumble, a fight, and a brawl?
A rumble, a fight, and a brawl. rumble a fight and a brawl well brawl is easy
it is oh yeah brawl super easy brawl's not two people brawl yeah a brawl yes a brawl is we're
back to kid rock yeah a brawl is a group of people getting in a brawl you don't yes you know or you
can be one on many you know i got into a brawl but i can't get into a brawl with just me and you andy
we can't get into a brawl we can't no way so it's amount of people see to me it was a mental picture
of like while we're fighting some objects are flying away from the fight from the fight like
it's it's a brawl do you know what i'm saying i understand that picture but the watch goes flying
off or a shoe the reason for that picture is because there's more than there's more than one person and that's going to cause a ruckus but there's no what's a ruckus well say here
let's start easy a fight is 1v1 that we can lay that out okay now see the my problem with your
definition of a brawl is because a rumble to me sounds the same also has has more than one person on a side.
I don't know.
Mr. Buffer asks always, are you ready to rumble?
And that's a one-on-one.
That's true. But I believe he has also asked that at the Royal Rumble.
Oh, now that's teams.
So it can be.
No, that's not teams.
But it's 1v1, v1, v1, all the way up to whatever, 30, whatever.
I think the difference between a brawl and a rumble is when you're in a rumble,
you know whose side you're on.
It's very clear, and you got one side over here.
You got one side over there.
When a brawl happens, it's so impromptu that everyone's fighting everyone.
They're swinging.
There's clear sides, but when you're in the heat of the battle,
you don't actually know. You might be punching out somebody who's on your side. Oh, They're swinging clear sides. But you when you're in the heat of the battle, you don't actually know.
You might be punching out somebody who's on your side.
Oh, you're swinging wildly.
Because part of that is because of all the stuff that's flying around.
Well, more tables get broken in a brawl than a rumble.
For sure.
Oh, yeah.
Brawls are bar room brawl, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
They don't call it a bar rumble.
No, I don't.
If two tables get broken, that's a brawl yeah
for sure okay so maybe a chair this one was easy a fight is one-on-one a rumble is more people but
you know who you're fighting and who's fighting you yep and a brawl is anarchy is just complete
everyone is fighting everyone and you don't even know what you're fighting about you're at this
point you're just fighting you're just there to win night howler from the website if brands were brutally honest
what brand would have what slogan oh man oh man taco bell something to eat yeah okay yeah that's That's good. Prius.
You're stupid by this.
Oh, my God. What?
You're stupid by this?
I just hate Priuses so much.
He hates them so much.
I hate the Prius.
I hate them.
It's a dark place.
I don't understand why you hate the Prius so much.
Because I've seen them drive on the road, Mike.
Yeah, but it was a good car.
Oh, the car is fine.
It sparked a real revolution.
It was the first car where it was like,
we can get better gas mileage.
We can do better.
Yeah, and we did.
We did way better.
There's so many better options.
I mean, look, they're hideous.
I will give you that.
They were the cars that were like,
how can we make a car look real stupid, but it looks like it's from the future the stupid future uh the payday loan
companies would have a change oh my gosh goodness like it's not gonna work out or please no please
don't payday loans slogan should be do you not have any money we'd like your we'd like more money
from you that's what it is yeah
i mean it is there should be certain industries that are just not allowed to exist uh oh yeah
there's yes jimmy johns oh no uh are you just trying to wipe our sponsors off the map we make
this from the toilet oh my gosh that's their slogan my wife. My wife and I debate Jimmy John's all the time because she likes them.
Why?
I don't know.
It's funny, too, because-
There's good subs out there.
There's great- I said, did you say Jersey Mike's wrong?
Yeah.
She's like, no.
I'm like, the bread's terrible.
She's like, I like the bread.
I was like, the bread's so hard.
And she's like, I did worry about breaking a tooth.
She said that.
She worried about breaking her tooth she said that she worried about breaking
her tooth on the bread yeah because exactly because jimmy john on a sandwich on a sammy
how do you break a tooth on a sandwich you order jimmy john's man i was trying to figure out like
apple it's like oh you pay for the logo yeah i mean that's nike too apple slogan has changed
in the last decade i think it's got to be
something along the lines of the only thing we innovate are our prices that's a good one i was
thinking more along the lines you're gonna buy it anyways yeah that that would work but um
this is brand new you've never seen it before this is way too long it's a lie something they
they always say
they're the first with everything oh yes but they haven't invented something in forever

The Spitballers Draft.
All right, we are going to... This show is brought to you by Jimmy John's.
We do talk a lot about the toilet on this show.
Something to eat.
Al contributed Benadryl.
You can't have allergies if you are unconscious.
Oh, man.
I mean, that's pretty good.
Benadryl puts you to sleep.
Yeah, that's true.
That's fair.
That's the NyQuil slogan.
You can't be sick if you don't remember where you're at.
We are drafting 90s movies, but we're doing it film festival style,
where each of us have to pick
a comedy a drama an action movie and a horror thriller so uh we pick one from each category
so there's a little gamesmanship in terms of taking the best from a category you think is
deep or not deep and i get to pick first uh and then i have to wait a while so I am going to go with
my favorite movie which is Braveheart.
I'm going to take it and it's in the drama
category. Yes and I
am so glad I didn't have to make the decision
to destroy Jason.
Yeah I'm just going to take it.
This is really really upsetting. I assumed
when making this list that Mike
was first. That he had the scat today.
And so I knew I was going to get Braveheart
because I didn't think you'd take that number one.
I knew Andy would.
I would not.
You wouldn't, and there's no way I would let that pass me.
Man, that...
There are a lot of good 90s dramas.
I would say that that's the deepest category.
That is my least deep category.
Really?
My personal bucket list here.
So I really wanted Braveheart.
I'm really disappointed I don't get to pick
some others from that category.
It might be a mistake.
By all means, retract your pick
and move somewhere else.
No, I'm going to take it.
I'm going to take Braveheart.
I know you and I,
it's been our favorite movie for a long time.
So what I attempted to do here
when I was compiling my list
is movies where like when I,
like it had a,
it wasn't just like,
oh, that was the greatest movie like
it had an actual impact on you know shaping the way I see entertainment shaping you just
what I think is funny so I I'd really try to dive deep so I don't even know if these
if all of these movies will completely resonate with people at that level we know we know when
you pick a favorite movie,
everyone out there is shouting at how stupid we are.
But I will start it off with it's one of the best movies of all time.
What genre?
It is an action movie.
It changed action movies.
It changed my perception of reality.
And I knew nothing about it as i was going into the
theater and i left and my mind was was shattered into a thousand pieces i know where you're going
it's my number two on this and it still holds up the sequels the new one hopeful hopeful hopeful
but the original thumb the matrix was a a movie event that it's hard to explain just how much it impacted things
if you weren't in the world.
You went into it not knowing anything about it?
Yeah, I did too.
Not even seeing the scene, the bullet scene?
I knew that Keanu was in some kind of science fiction action movie.
That's really cool.
That's basically what I went into it with as well,
and I had never to my life at that's basically what i went into it with as well and i had never
to my life at that point experienced what i experienced in that theater yes which was i
remember at one point when uh you know when when the character finished this fight scene
the whole theater erupted not like kind applause they were screaming and shouting in the theater
it was really unbelievable great pick
and like and i was yeah it's a great pick i think i had just i don't know what year it came out but
i mean it's like i'm just old enough to see our movies or just under and got into the i don't
know i don't remember but it was very like i wasn't old and so i'm sure these stories already existed but this was my first real uh rodeo with like is stuff really
real and you're like wait a minute there is no spoon i've just assumed it was real what if you
are correct and it is not real also i challenge if you so i fell with land before time if you enjoy
if you enjoy this show i challenge you if you must watch every movie that we draft today.
Today?
No, no, no.
You can't watch it all day.
Even if you're young?
Absolutely, if you're young.
Speaking of that-
These two have held up so far.
Man.
All right.
I know that it's not necessarily the-
A movie.
I know it's not necessarily the best strategy to go with a category that one of you two
have picked, but we're already talking about these action movies.
We're talking about how these things change.
And this, to me, was just in the category.
It was the one that stands out as the 90s action movie.
There's a billion of them.
But this is the number one action movie from the 90s.
And it was the first R-rated movie I ever saw, Terminator 2, Judgment Day.
That was number two on my list. Unbelievable. Did you see it in the first R-rated movie I ever saw, Terminator 2, Judgment Day. That was number two on my list.
Unbelievable.
Did you see it in the theater?
I did.
I saw it late in the theater.
It was in the theater forever, for years.
What was the first rated R movie you ever saw, Andy?
The first rated R movie I ever saw?
He's still waiting.
I don't know.
Mine was a big event.
My grandpa brought me to Cliffhanger
I'll try to think about it
I do not remember
I was like 14 and my parents approved it
Somehow
That was a big
That was a big moment
Clearly I'm almost 40 and I still remember that
Negatively affected you ever since
Yes
For my next pick
Look at your tattoos. I try and climb every mountain
I see. It's unrealistic.
For my next pick, I'm going
to go with comedy.
There's a 1A and a 1B.
It's kind of a little bit difficult for me to
take this as the first pick.
They're both just so unbelievable.
They're two of my all-time favorite movies
but I will choose Dumb and Dumber as my 90s comedy film festival movie.
I like it.
It's very funny.
It's not on my list.
Ridiculous.
Bad list.
Mike is back to you.
All right.
You cannot select another action movie.
I don't need to.
I got the one I wanted to.
And then so I will go to the thriller
slash horror section i which it's the definition of a thriller is tough we were talking about this
before the the the show and it's like a thriller to me is it's intense it's very suspenseful but
it's not necessarily jump scares it's not it's not necessarily someone a psycho
killer's after you but you still have those feelings like a horror movie and this again this
this movie is now uh kind of turned unfortunately it's got so popular and it was so impactful that's
more of a oh please more of it i'm just hoping you take what I hope you take. Oh, it's more of like a joke now.
But if you didn't know anything about the movie, this and this to me was the first movie
where it was like you learned the importance of spoilers and you cannot get spoiled before
you go to see movies and the Internet's starting to explode.
So you could avoid spoilers.
But I see what you see.
But I will.
I will take the sixth sense.
You see dead people.
Yes.
Spoiler.
It's hard to truly explain the impact that that movie had
if you weren't around before.
Was that rated R?
No, it was a PG-13.
I remember seeing...
There's a few movies that I can remember being in the theater for,
and that's one of them.
I can remember being in there for sixth sense.
And the end of it shows up and you go,
What? Your mind is blown okay all right so you took uh your thriller slash horror category it was on my list yeah it was it was probably going to be my pick for that
category so that was fabulous thank you all right i got two picks now it'd be dumb of me to pick an
action movie because you have both selected an action movie. That'd be really fun. So I will go.
Where do I want to go here?
The hardest one for me was picking the horror thriller genre.
Oh, I got some more if you want.
And so let me make sure this movie was the 90s.
This came out last week.
Let me make sure.
91. Qualifies. All right. I'll go the silence of the lambs oh really yeah i'll go silence of the lambs for my horror thriller it's it's older
obviously in this genre did you when did you see it later okay yeah later on but it fits the 90s
horror thriller and just uh i'm glad you saw it later on and not like not when i was seven yeah yeah
that's the weird the weird thing is is we were born i was born in 84 so like most of the ones
in like the other one i had on my list i mean maybe you take it maybe you don't two of them
have been picked well hold on okay all right we get the end of our list at the end of the show
the other one is certainly one i wouldn't have seen at that time either. I'm just curious,
when about in the 90s you saw it?
I probably didn't see it in the 90s.
Oh, really?
Okay.
I mean, maybe late 90s.
Gotcha.
Early aughts.
No, no problems there.
And then comedy,
there's so many 90s comedy movies,
but I'm just going to go with my heart.
Okay.
I'm just going to go with the movie.
Again, there are others that will get mentioned probably,
but I'm going to go with the one that I probably saw more than anything else,
which was Tommy Boy.
Yeah.
I thought Tommy Boy with Chris Farley and David Spade
was like the funniest movie on earth for many years.
Tommy Boy.
Did you see it in the theaters?
No.
Yeah, I did not.
I did not.
VHS, my friend.
The first time I saw Tommy boy was on a family vacation and you could rent movies on the tv in your room yeah and this
was like super novel time you saw it that was the first time i saw it i mean movies cost like
45 to rent on this stupid system but the parents allowed it because it was vacation.
So you all watched it together?
Yeah.
And so it was like,
this was a,
that was a transformative comedy.
Yeah, but Bo Derek, right?
It was so, so good.
That was my only non-Jim.
You come from a walkie-talkie?
My non-Jim Carrey 90s comedy.
Yeah, I mean, obviously,
there's a bunch of Jim Carrey movies.
There's a bunch of other comedies.
All right.
So Jason has his comedy, which means I will go with my drama,
and I will end up getting my top pick.
Braveheart's on my list.
It just wasn't my top one.
There's so many movies.
Yes.
It's very difficult to narrow it down to one.
But when I eventually saw this, this is like it came out.
I wasn't old enough came back to it as
I'm starting to get my education
on movies and
you know things that took place in the 90s
but it really changed
how I thought
a story could be told
where there's just
multiple interweaving
all really important storylines going on
that connect at different time points,
and the dialogue was something I had never experienced at that point.
I will take, because there's a couple of them,
but I'm going to take Pulp Fiction.
Okay.
Tarantino was not for everybody, but I, that indoctrinated me.
I'm guessing you, did you watch that in the 90s?
I watched it in the late 90s.
Okay.
Yes.
That's another one that wouldn't have been a early age movie.
But I do remember like it was, it became popular right around the time my older sister was in high school.
right around the time my older sister was in high school.
And so it was like I kind of got a little bit of the gleaming of this changing how young people were seeing movies and everything.
And I got to see it later.
I was like, oh, yeah, I get it.
I'm in on that.
Yeah, I didn't mind Pulp Fiction.
I thought it was a little overrated.
Are you a Tarantino guy?
I have since come to love Tarantino.
I haven't seen it since many, many, many moons,
but I didn't like Tarantino at the time.
All right, so here I am.
I've got two categories left.
I've got my drama, which is just heartbreaking to not have Braveheart,
but I'm going to go with Forrest Gump.
Okay.
Because it was just one of the best movies of all time.
Great story.
Great drama.
Not an epic, but like a...
I think it's fine.
Is that a good term for it?
It's not a movie you would normally think of as it, but just how it...
The time span.
Decades.
Yeah, no.
I love that one.
And then my thriller, I'm really happy to get this one my
thriller slash horror because I'm not a huge like I do like thriller movies but I have a hard time
really classifying them as a as a thriller you both have yours right yes so like Jurassic Park
is great I just have a hard time calling that thriller thriller. I get it. It's a thrilling movie.
It's not a thriller.
It's a thriller.
What do you call it then?
An action movie.
That's what I said too earlier.
See, I don't think it's an action movie.
Oh, you guys were discussing this?
I don't think that's an action movie.
Jurassic Park's not a thriller.
But to be...
I guess you could...
Yeah.
Not a classic.
But it's almost a horror movie where the whole entire movie is setting up the bad guy, which
is a big bad monster, and then the monster chases them all over the park.
Sort of.
Yeah, sort of.
So I can see the argument, but my point is I didn't want to go that way.
Okay.
And I don't really watch a ton of horror movies because I'm a big fraidy cat.
But in the 90s, there was one of the best horror movies of all time that was truly up my alley.
I would watch it and love it now because
it's hysterical it's funny it's is it ironically funny or no it's just made to be funny no it's
not made to be funny it's just it's just a really fun to watch movie that is really really scary
very clever has a twist and created a franchise i I'm taking Scream. Oh, yeah, of course.
Scream was.
Scream had a real cult following to those movies.
Yeah, I loved Scream.
I thought that those were great for someone
who didn't really usually care for that genre.
For what it's worth, I asked Google
what type of movie Jurassic Park is.
Wikipedia says it's a sci-fi action film.
That's what it says. Sci-fi. Yeah. I mean, because they're- It's a sci-fi action film that's what it says sci-fi yeah yeah because
they're science fiction action movie okay it's did you know that the science in jurassic park
is is not real and the dinosaurs aren't you know what's funny is that's the fiction part i have a
really hard time seeing science fiction not being an alien not in space yeah science fiction means i'm with the stars baby
um all right was that my final or do i you're done man you don't get any more all right mike
you have one pick left you already have your action your thriller your comedy you need a drama
and here is where i'm sorry you have your drama yeah i'm going comedy here's where i will complete it with a movie that unfortunately has time has diminished the impact that it had when it
originally came out because they whipped out a couple sequels for it which were still funny
but they like lessened the impact of the original movie and this was the comedy I saw in the theaters more than any other movie.
And it was the original.
The original Austin Powers, International Man of Mystery with Mike Myers. When this thing came out.
Mid-90s?
Something like that.
I'm trying to remember.
But when this thing came out, it was so fresh and so original.
And like a character that i had never experienced and i just laughed
my butt off for the entire length of the movie and it just got funnier every single time i saw it
and i'm not joking i saw this thing probably eight to ten times in the theater where once it got to
the dollar theater it was well what are we doing today ah let's just go
see Austin Powers again yeah I mean
it's funny because I do think that's
incredibly underrated because
of what time did
to it yeah it ruined itself
yes it ruined itself it made the
character just not funny
anymore but when it came out
was unbelievable
alright so my final pick has to be my action movie
because you guys already have yours um and
there's two that i love and i feel bad not picking both but i can't pick both so that's not the game
i will actually go with speed okay i'll go with speed with counter reeves yeah and um it's great i won't argue top to bottom that movie that movie
has more depth than you remember too if you all if your head is just like oh it's just a just a
bus it's just a bus no it's got character development and a good villain i mean hopkin uh
hopper yeah dennis hopper and um so i think Speed is going to take the cake for me.
In close contention, since we're done with the draft,
the two other action movies that I brought up
that I really liked were Fifth Element.
But that's more of an indie kind of action.
Sci-fi.
And then, actually, The Fugitive's a great movie.
I don't know if you ever saw The Fugitive.
It's a good movie.
The Fugitive's a really, really good movie.
I don't care. Yeah, is that Fugitive. It's a good movie. The Fugitive's a really, really good movie. I don't care.
Yeah.
Is that action?
I feel like that's drama.
But it's in that.
It's an action movie.
Is it?
I would call that a drama.
My action movies were Independence Day, The Rock, and Face Off.
The Rock.
Yeah, I got to get some Nick Cage movies in there.
Those are just so bad.
Action thriller film, according to Wikipedia, for The Fugitive.
Yeah, thriller.
Action thriller.
I'd include that.
All right, what dramas were left out?
Oh, Shawshank.
I mean, Shawshank was going to be-
It's on my list.
If I didn't take-
Tombstone.
Braveheart.
Okay.
For drama?
Oh, yeah.
I mean, what would you call Tombstone?
Tombstone's-
I mean, it's a Western kind of, but that wasn't a category.
Yeah, I guess I would have considered it like Western action, but that fits.
No.
For drama, I had Green Mile.
Jerry Maguire.
Oh, I love Jerry Maguire.
Chandler's List.
It's fine.
That's very drama.
Titanic.
Classic.
You like Titanic?
No, I just saw my list in case I needed votes.
