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.

I mean yeah
Z as in zebra
Z and then zip zazu
Zip zap zap Zimbabwe.
He's trying to put everyone to sleep.
What are you doing?
Good night, spitballers.
Welcome into the show.
Thank you, Jason.
I'm sorry, everybody.
I thought about just doing the first ever silent scat, which obviously would have been
great for the audience.
But then I was like, no, they need to live my pain. I don't like doing the scat which obviously would have been great for the audience but then i was like no they need
to live my pain i don't like doing the scat so i'm gonna i'm gonna make you listen to it and that's
that that is how i get recovered is is i think about the pain of everybody listening to my scat
okay so it's like we share in this me Me and my friends are experiencing. Better to suffer with a bunch than suffer by yourself.
I believe there's a phrase, misery loves company.
So every third show, you have five to ten seconds of something that you don't appreciate.
And then these beautiful people that tune into this podcast to get a jolt.
A jolt of joy.
They don't want to have a case of the Mondays,
as they would say in the office space.
And you're like, nah, man, I think that you should have pain too.
No, here's the truth.
They don't tune in for joy.
They tune in.
They might think they tune in for joy.
They don't.
I'm confused.
They tune in for emotion. They don't. I'm confused. They tune in for emotion.
They want to feel something.
This is a real.
This is a deep dive.
This is a deep dive.
Look.
None of it's true.
You're welcome, spitballers.
I think that you have felt something here to start this show.
A little too long.
Would you rather the Situation Room and we're drafting the most rewatchable movies on today's episode of The Spitballers.
Al Borland is here.
What's up, Spitwads?
The judge is here as well, hanging out.
I love having a draft that is just so completely subjective.
I do too.
And will just certainly rile up.
You talk about people want to feel something.
I mean, the amount of people who will not have one of their picks
will not be selected in our draft here.
They will be furious.
Well, it's great because Jason has the first pick in a subjective draft,
so that's awesome.
That sucks.
And then secondly, I think what you'll hear the most of is people hearing our picks and then saying i wouldn't
want to watch that a bunch of times like that'll be the interesting thing what kind of awful movies
are you gonna pick i feel like the movies on my list are are movies that are universally loved
because you could watch them a million times i I mean, that's the draft. What are awesome movies you could watch forever?
Like Zoolander?
That movie sucked.
No, I just...
Oh, it begins!
It was just a Z movie, so I thought I'd work it in.
All right, let's move on.
Would You Rather?
I'm just now re-hearing you say that.
That's just ridiculous.
It is.
That movie is a classic.
Agreed.
I know that.
I know that because every single one of my friends told me that a million times.
Oh, weird.
Like a whole bunch of people that you love, respect.
Exactly.
You care about their opinion sometimes you're
above people mike and in college i was very much above all of the people when it came to uh being
a comedy snob and so uh yeah i floated right over all them losers and that bent stiller what a hack he's great he's great when he's a a bit piece he can't
oh my goodness no he can't what yeah like dodgeball awesome he's he's a fun bit piece
the main character in dodgeball he's not the main character it's the main character thank you Mike
no no I get what you say but but I'm saying to say that Ben Stiller cannot carry is ridiculous.
Cannot lead.
This is not our would you rather question, though.
Would you rather watch Ben Stiller as the lead?
Okay, into IMDb I go.
Jackson from Patreon, would you rather.
No time for you, Jackson.
Would you rather lose one sense to gain a 25% boost to the other four or gain the proverbial sixth sense
but lose 20% of the other five.
Oh, okay.
Now let's recap the five first.
The five senses.
Go ahead, Jason.
We all know them.
Recap them for us.
Live, laugh, love.
We're going to go with sight, yeah yeah smell okay taste and touch there
you go get them that you got it that's are they up on your screen on like no they're not on my
screen now the boost what one would you give up would you give up uh taste though for sure for me
i mean that was easy when i would you do it though to get the boost I think I definitely think so I wear glasses when I'm showering and I've tried your dumb trick Andy of wear your glasses in the shower they just
fog up there's just it doesn't work water gets on them and then it's just as bad so like I can't I
can't see when I wake up when I'm in the shower when I'm swimming like I would love to have my
eyesight be better without glasses and I would love for food to stop tasting so good I would love to have my eyesight be better without glasses, and I would love for food to stop tasting so good.
Do you really?
You'd be giving up something.
I mean, you'd be giving up something you love.
Yeah, you say that a lot on this show,
and we all know immediately, okay, if I can't taste,
allegedly I'm going to go and I'm only going to eat salads.
You don't know that that's true.
But would you really want that to go away?
I don't think I would want it to go away, no.
Like if the question was, would you like to taste less and therefore maybe eat better,
lose weight, whatever, I would be like, no, I love food.
But if I'm also getting a boost to my
sense of hearing my sense of smell my sense of you know my vision my touch that I think that's a huge
win that I mean what's worse in the five senses than taste is there anything that's like oh man
like taste is the is the loser no taste is the one that you could get rid of and be least impacted on your daily life.
However, a 25% boost, it's just not that much.
It's not that much.
Like, I don't know if it...
Boy, I can hear 25% more.
My life has changed?
No.
I can see 25% better.
My life's changed?
No.
I can smell better?
That could be a curse.
That could be a curse.
But by your own logic, Andy, then losing 25% of taste, not that big a deal.
You don't lose 25% of taste.
You lose your sense.
All of it.
Really?
You lose all of it?
Yes.
Shoot.
Me and my reading.
No, you lose 20% from the others.
If you do the proverbial sixth sense.
The question was, would you lose an entire sense to gain 25% boost or you get
the sixth sense, which apparently-
Yeah, let's define the sixth sense.
What is this, ghosts?
I don't know what it means.
No, I think the sixth-
It says that if someone is said to have the sixth sense, that they seem to have a natural
ability to know about things before other people or to know things that other people
do not know.
Heck yeah, bro.
Sign me up.
I mean, look-
Let's go.
That's like the, oh, I've got a sixth sense about that. It's going to end. Sign me up. I mean, look. Let's go. That's like the, oh, I've got a sixth sense about that.
It's going to end not well.
Yeah, I mean, look.
But I actually can say that 25% better.
Yeah, but you don't know the details.
You just have a sixth sense telling you that.
We have a lot riding on fantasy football on this show,
the Fantasy Footballers show.
If I had a sixth sense for someone that was going to get injured
or someone that was going to blow up in a big game that's awesome so wait what do i have to do to
get a six cents minus 25 percent wait wait wait 20 percent of the other five all the five so now i
got big thick glasses now because i mean at that point i am wearing magnifying glasses the coke
bottles on yeah and i can't hear very well so you probably got hearing
it's fine i'll be on par with my wife um she wear hearing aids not yet she needs a bodied but she
can't hear so good and uh we watch everything with subtitles so i think i'm okay there okay
losing a little bit of smell is just imagine howavacol you'll need if you can't taste.
I'll just be sprinkling it on my meal.
This has nothing to do with popcorn and cooking anymore.
I'm just like sprinkling Flavacol right on my fries.
I guess we'll take the sixth sense thing.
We good with that?
Yeah, I'm great with it.
All right, we have Sydney from Twitter.
Would you rather be an expert archer or a professional fencer?
Okay, quick question.
Are we saying that an expert archer is not a professional?
No, sure.
I'm just saying there was a distinction.
Would you rather be an expert archer or a professional fencer?
I believe the heart of the question is.
A professional at either.
An expert at either.
Yes, exactly.
You're top of your field.
Yeah, which is the cooler one to be great at?
Which one comes in handy more often?
People still fence, huh?
Do they still fence?
Well, yeah.
I mean, like in the Olympics.
If I'm an expert archer, at least I can go hunt or something.
Yeah.
If I'm a professional fencer.
Someone breaks into your house.
Someone breaks into your house.
You have to throw them a mask and say, step back 10 feet, good sir.
I challenge you.
Do professional fencers keep a fencing sword, not with the little ball on the end of it,
but a sharp one?
A lethal one.
A lethal one. A lethal one.
It'll get you a little prick.
Near their bed in lieu of other home protection items.
Like, would you?
Of course they do.
They have one skill and very few opportunities.
Well, sure.
I mean, that's a risk.
I'm saying they go with the fencing sword.
They don't like have a, like a, like a cutlass or something that does it.
Just like.
Hey, speed can overcome some of those big claymores mike i know yeah i'm taking the archer yeah range is always gonna win like
put those two in a fight right like come at me finn you just got shot by an arrow you're done
i mean the archer would always win in that duel. Well, not all. I mean, once you're close enough, then no.
We just completely eliminated the need for archers in war, right,
with the whole gun thing?
Well, because it's basically just a very similar thing.
It's a projectile.
Is there any possible benefit to being able to shoot an arrow versus?
I mean, if you want to block out the sun.
Hmm, that's a reference I didn't get.
Yeah, a bunch of arrows. I'm not even going to explain that one. Wait i didn't get yeah a bunch i'm not even i'm not even gonna
explain that one andy well i remember there's some some no no mythological thing where you
shoot a bunch of arrows up if i say this is sparta yeah oh okay like arrows flying in the sky
yeah i vote archer yeah i mean i i i definitely think that archery and any kind of projectile is it's
cool also if you've ever watched alone uh the show where people have to go and live by themselves and
you get a few items they always bring a bow and i am i i am amazed at by what these people could
they can get like a kind of boat do they get like a it's not like a big uh it's not a real
pot what do they call those compound bow yeah it's not a compound It's not like a big compound boat.
Yeah, it's not a compound boat.
It's like a wooden boat.
It's old school.
Old school.
Legolas.
Legolas does not have a compound boat.
No.
Well, he's also an elf.
I was going to go Robin Hood, but yeah.
But I see them hit a bird in a tree or a squirrel at a distance.
I'm like, that's impossible.
Yeah, but if that thing was like a foot in front of the fencer,
they would get it for sure.
That fencer would never get that squirrel, never.
You could start with the squirrel on the shoulder,
and that squirrel is gone.
Yeah, I'm an archer for sure.
Would you rather buy all used underwear?
What?
Or all used toothbrushes?
Oh, okay, okay.
This is a great question, by the way.
What can you sanitize easier?
You can bleach stuff.
I feel like bleaching your toothbrush.
I think I would bleach the toothbrush too.
I feel like that's not a good plan.
But let's take away sanitization.
I don't think it makes for the best discussion.
Okay, so you have to go use. You just have to
use the used toothbrush or you have
to use the used underwear.
Is the underwear still warm?
Is your underwear warm when you
take it off? Is it hot? Of course it is,
Jason. Really? Do you know how hot your body
is? Super hot.
The underwear is not warm,
but you just... Well, I need Jason to do
it. When you get home and you're
whatever you're... This evening,
I want you to take your underpants off and just hold them up
to your face. Just put them on my
cheek and just say... Just hold them up and see how warm
they are. For science. Or
have your wife do it.
Just ask him, honey, are these
warm? Honey, are these warm? Just
put them right on her face.
Is this warm to you, honey?
Yeah, five bucks.
Okay.
I'll give you five bucks.
Well, done.
I'm definitely doing that tonight.
We're having this discussion at work.
I feel like I would rather.
The toothbrush feels like more of a violation.
Yes, it does.
Because it's going into your.
My mouth is supposed to be.
Nuts and crannies?
Yeah.
Both of them are.
I know.
My mouth is supposed to be clean. You know whatannies? Yeah. Both of them are. I know. My mouth is supposed to be clean.
You know what I mean?
Right.
I want a clean mouth.
I want a clean butt too, but my butt's dirty.
You know what I mean?
It's dirty down there.
If I've got to wear dirty things that go on my butt crack, then what's dirty is dirty.
But let's say, what's ironic is both could end up with you smelling worse and it wouldn't
be your smell well you're not getting someone's smell from the toothbrush you could be getting
some some odorous uh particles the toothpaste on some food particles yeah um or do you have
how do you explain to somebody the reason you smell is that you're wearing somebody else's old
underwear if you smell to a stranger to someone just a companion nearby
based upon your underwear and your underwear alone then i take the toothbrush because those
underwear are full of caca i mean there is no chance that dirty underwear smell that bad
yeah i mean how many have you been around someone and you're like,
oh, man, have you not changed your underwear lately?
What if you had to go a lifetime with one of the other?
You'd have to wear the same pair of somebody else's underwear
the rest of your life.
No washing.
The same pair?
The same pair.
No washing.
Okay.
Or the same toothbrush the rest of your life.
I mean, I'm assuming, I feel like after a couple brushes with the toothpaste,
it's all gone.
It's yours?
Do you claim it?
Is that making it your DNA?
Yeah, it's now mine.
You've now just consumed all of theirs?
Yeah, I think that's how I look at it.
I'm taking the underpants.
I'll stay dirty down under.
Oh, okay.
All right, should we move on?
Al, you got time for one more?
Let's do one more, then we'll move on.
Would you rather have eyes the size of a baseball?
Aubrey from Patreon wants to know,
eyes the size of a baseball or eyes the size of a pea?
Oh, man.
So, gigundous eyes or microscopic tiny little pea eyes?
I'd say your vision is not improved or impaired either way.
It's always funny when you see, like, so anime or, like, even like a Disney, you know, just a computer animated film.
Because they're very exaggerated.
But in that world, you're like, oh, this is a normal looking person.
And then an artist does a realistic rendition of said person.
And you're like, oh!
It's terrifying.
That would be terrifying.
I think it would be easier to cover up small eyes.
That was my thought, because you could wear sunglasses.
Exactly.
You wear sunglasses.
Put those sunglasses on the other one.
Your eyeball is poking out over the top of the sunglasses. You're going to need those giant sunglasses. sunglasses exactly you wear sunglasses put those sunglasses on the other one your eyes poking your
eyeballs poking out over the top you're gonna need those giant sunglasses people ones yeah the one or
the you know like with the sun help and john's giant yeah just big i can't think of having giant
eyes and not think of star wars one of those like fish people that it's a trap don't they have gigantic eyes i was thinking
of uh pan's labyrinth oh yeah but that's the eyes on the hand i know but aren't they like large
i was thinking regular cat fish where their eyes are on the side oh we're i mean the baseballs the
p eyes i mean i guess you do have like on a windy day the big eyes are going to be more of a problem
I guess you do have, like, on a windy day,
the big eyes are going to be more of a problem.
Yes, certainly.
Allergies, you know, get all bloodshot.
You need a lot of drops.
Let's say you want some goggles going swimming.
Oh, baby.
You're putting goggles on an eyeball in that situation. They're just suctioned straight to the ball of your eye.
Contacts would be expensive.
Oh, man, but it's far easier to put in.
Just, well, this is easy.
It's like putting a sunshade up.
I think you're never going to get a sneak a glance at anybody without them knowing.
No.
With those big eyes.
But with P.I.s, you could be real sneaky.
They'll think your eyes are closed.
I think that no one would take the baseball eyes here i
can't imagine i can't imagine a situation where people would be like oh i just want i just want
the the ridicule of everyone well would it uh what about like big eyes could you could use more
mascara right and have like big long lashes i mean if when you give what if you give someone
the uh the sad puppy eyes? Winks would be insane.
Oh,
you'd hear that wink.
Her splash.
All right,
let's,
uh,
let's move into the situation.

The Situation Realm.
I just realized some of the questions we ask on this show are quite dumb.
What?
Not these ones, though. Not these ones.
None of the todays have been dumb.
The Kachow Kid from Discord.
Kachow!
After an altercation with your local wizard, he curses you,
and you must be the same age for the rest of your life.
He allows you to choose what age.
What do you choose?
This means you will not age in maturity or appearance, but you can still age in skill and knowledge.
This is great news.
This is not a curse.
It's immortality at an age.
This is a blessing.
And I get to pick the age.
Do you have a powerhouse age that you've already blown past? is not a curse it's immortality at an age it's a blessing and i get to pick the age yeah wait do
you have a powerhouse age that you've already absolutely blown past absolutely yeah yeah i mean
there's a range here but i think i would go with 28 okay i think 28 you can have you you have enough
physical maturity to be taken seriously by 28 is good by you know
the older people did you have generation before you do you have your beard at 28
i it was around 29 no it's a good question it's a good question i think i remember i had a beard
at 29 so i think i could grow it at 28 we'll find out are you sure you want to dance with that devil here's what i know at 28 i didn't need the beard i only had one neck and that was great 20 it's a pretty
good age because if you're too young like 23 peak physical health like but maturity but exactly
you're not going to be taken serious you're always going to be looked at like a kid by the previous generation i think i'm going to go 30 on the dot okay i don't want to be
in my 30s yeah that's true old man why not but late 20s almost feels worse than early 30s what
is wrong with the 30s nothing they're like the 20s with money yeah exactly but the knowledge
and and situation continues to expand so you know the
if you got money by the 30s you'll have money just with a youthful what's your age mike i was
saying young 30s yeah i feel like i had my the beard had grown in the uh the the man body had
finally showed up at some point around there puberty you just got done with that
yeah all right well now we've got to name the age the local wizard showed up and said hmm
i read this spell wrong oh you have to choose the age for the person sitting to your left
in which case oh that you lock them in at yeah Yeah. Andy, you are 77 years old.
I think it's going to be your prime.
What's different?
I think it's going to be your prime.
You're going to be.
Do I have a rocking chair?
Oh, you've got a rocking chair.
You're just in your stride, man.
I'm winning some pickleball tournaments at 77.
You are with those new hips that you just got.
They're going to be fantastic.
That's the age I think that you would thrive in the most.
Thanks.
I appreciate that Mike
what age where is your nickname nasal spray oh I mean that's a young teen all right that's where
we're gonna lock all right so I'm 12 yeah all right a young teen is now 12 years old I mean
just like it was around there yeah I just thought you know teenagers started yeah teen years that's
what they that's what they want you to think.
Said like a true 12-year-old.
I would make Jason 19.
You're just under the age limit where you can actually do everything.
But you're old enough that you believe firmly that you should be allowed to do everything. So I will die soon.
19 Jason. I thought
for sure you were locking in 40.
You're cursed to this
body. Yeah, but you're looking
good. Oh, thanks.
Cody from Patreon. How long would each
of you be stuck inside a Waffle House
if forced to take
the Waffle House challenge, which is sentenced to 24 hours inside a waffle house. If forced to take the waffle house challenge,
which is sentenced to 24 hours inside a waffle house,
but every waffle you eat subtracts an hour from your sentence.
This is not going to be a big issue for me.
I'm a man who enjoys his bread and his waffles.
Have you not watched any of these people do it though?
I have not watched them do it.
Tell me what I don't know because my, here's what I think. Fred and his waffles. Have you not watched any of these people do it, though? I have not watched them do it.
Tell me what I don't know, because here's what I think.
I think I could equal at least three waffles an hour.
So maybe the first hour I'm eating five.
Maybe after that I'm eating two at pace.
But I think three an hour will be my pace,
which means I'm in there for seven hours.
Am I wrong?
I think you are extremely wrong. extremely wrong extremely wrong what i've seen several people have to do
they throw up uh i know they don't vomit but you just you quickly get to the place where you are
in physical pain from the amount of waffles you eat and these people are at like six seven waffles well if you
think about it you sit down and you're like okay i'm gonna i'm gonna put down a couple real quick
right i'm gonna take i'm gonna put three waffles in no problem destroyed but now i'm stuffed at
what point can you eat more waffles yeah do you have to wait an hour do you have to wait two hours
three hours and then when you wait let's say three hours
can you put down three more and do that so i like i feel like the them for me i can put down some
food and i love me some waffles i'm confident are big oh i know they're full but they're big
but they're thin yeah they're still it's a carbs. I'm confident. Is this a challenge?
Oh, man.
Let's do it.
I think I'm in there probably 16 hours.
I think I got 12.
I could go 12 and 12.
Are you kidding me?
I'm out of there before both of you fools.
Oh, man.
I think he would be wrong.
I think he'd be wrong, too. I think in a moment, six hours in, he would be wrong i think in a moment i think six hours in he would be
dying well there's only one way to find that i would love if someone could actually force me
to do this challenge like i've been on a diet recently and so i couldn't do this but if i had
to do this oh man we do the challenge last one out that was the other two guys $1,000 oh yeah get that
competitive spirit going
who would be
less because Mike I don't know
quantity but you are the fastest eater for
sure I don't know if that matters over a 24 hour
I think Mike's the one paying the money
I think so too I mean maybe
maybe I mean when you are in this type
of a situation can we do ice cream when you're
in this situation I don't know if it what situation, I don't know what's better.
I don't know if it's better to just house as much as you possibly can at the beginning,
or is it better to just accept you're going to be in here for 12 hours?
Like a marathon.
Yeah.
I'm going to be in here for 12 hours, so I'm going to eat one or one and a half waffles
per hour.
I don't know what the math works out to be.
I guess if you did a half.
Man. Because you hit a half. Man.
Because you hit a point where you're so full and you're not eating again for another six hours.
Shoot.
I'm thinking about this.
Let's say you eat a half a waffle every 15 minutes.
That's still just two waffles an hour.
Yeah.
And two waffles an hour is going to put you in there for half the time.
12 and 12.
No.
Yeah.
No. 24 total hours that you need yeah so if you ate one waffle an hour that would be 12 hours that you're there yeah wait i thought you had to eat 24
hours or to eat 24 waffles oh do you have to eat 24 waffles one waffle per hour yeah oh so you are
right yeah 12 it's it is a tough one we're're going to have to do it. 24 waffles.
Man.
Can we look up the calorie count on 24 waffles with syrup?
Because you're not eating these plain.
24 waffles with syrup.
You better be eating them plain.
I'm not.
You can't make me.
I'm putting powder sugar.
You know how much butter I'm going to put on those bad dogs.
Oh, man.
So much butter.
I'm getting out first.
Okay.
There's 314 calories in one Waffle House waffle, but that's plain.
Okay, so 314.
So just plain.
So this is the Mike Wright method.
He's consuming 7,500 calories before he gets out.
If I eat 24?
If you eat 24 without butter, without syrup, like a loser.
But if you're staying 24 hours, you ate nothing.
You don't have to eat anything. Well, sure.
If you get out early.
I haven't been to a Waffle House in
a while. They're disappearing. I'm super proud
of that. They are disappearing.
Branson from Twitter, you've decided to institute
a recess break for your workplace.
Excellent. To decrease stress and increase
the quality of life. However, you're only allotted
a one hour break and then it is right
back to work. There's no shower time
included. What activities would you do
or what activities do you think would
emerge as favorites? Do you all
play together or do you all enjoy some
time alone?
So the first answer that comes
to all three of our minds is pickleball.
It is, but you only have an hour
and you don't get extra time for
is that not extra time to shower or because you could use part of your break to shower yeah okay so we can
so yeah we can play pickleball for 45 minutes and then you've got a clock in oh man done but
everybody's got to be showered by the time it's time to get back to work we can shower together
to give us more pickleball time
i mean you gotta do what you gotta do to play your sport i don't know about i don't know about
this plan strap some trunks on you'll be all right here's the truth i don't sweat like you
guys i could get by without a shower that's what i was gonna say i was like you don't need to
shower change my shirt mike doesn't need to shower jeremy and myself you you are showering
we are showering in sweat when we play.
And you guys are always wearing those used underwear,
and that makes it more of an issue as well.
We got to jump in the shower to dry off a little bit.
I think that's true.
I have to tell the spit wads out there.
I don't understand the science behind it,
but I don't know if you guys bought shirts that were like made for people to
absorb more,
more moisture than normal materials.
It seems like there was a scientific,
like there's a situation,
like a periodic table issue going on with your shirts.
Because I have,
I've done the mistake of like,
Hey,
a big play happens in pickleball.
I run over and like I would a normal athlete. I smack him on the belly or something saying, good job.
And my hand comes off of that stomach.
And it is like I can see fish swimming in it.
I don't understand how much moisture can get on that hand.
Yeah, it's really true.
It's impressive.
And disgusting.
Yeah, it's really true.
It's impressive.
And disgusting.
Like, if the ball hits us, we need a new ball because that ball is ruined.
Like, literally, we replaced the ball.
We're like, well, this one's soaked.
It's a soggy pickleball now.
And you guys have now, you've been wearing these shorts where by the end, you can.
It's a diaper.
Why are you wearing diaper shorts?
It's not a diaper short in the beginning.
It's just once it gets soaked,
I can't do anything about soaking. But you know now that you're buying diaper shorts,
like you're committed to them?
Well, no, it's not the shorts.
It's pretty much all of my shorts.
It's just a matter of do I play long enough to soak the shorts?
And if I do, then I'm walking around with soggy bottoms.
Who soaks shorts, Mike?
I've never had wet shorts ever.
I mean, you definitely along the fault line down the back there gets sweaty.
Yeah.
And I've had a really sweaty shirt before.
I've had a really sweaty shirt. I've had a real sweaty shirt before,
but I've never had my shorts to the point where I feel like I'm sitting in a pair of Depends.
Never have I ever.
If I take my shorts off and put them on a scale, it's 15 pounds.
I mean, I'm carrying around a lot of shorts here.
What jean do you guys both have?
This is all.
I mean, there was a time when you were making the mistake of just wearing like heavy cotton.
Yes.
And that made logical sense.
Like if I played in cotton, I would get really, really soaking wet.
But now you're like in moisture wicking territory and ain't wicking nothing.
No, it's wicking so much and it's not enough.
We basically need some kind of suit that just evaporates our sweat immediately.
It's pretty impressive and scary.
All right, into the draft we go.
The Spitballers Draft.
All right, I'm excited about this one.
We are drafting the most rewatchable movies.
I love this draft in part because I love rewatchable movies. I love those
movies that have always stood out as they have this quality where it doesn't matter what part
of the movie you're on. Yep. You turn on the TV and it's halfway through and you're just like,
I'm in. Sometimes these movies, you don't really even remember the order that everything happens
in anymore because it's just different. Because it's been so fragmented as you've watched it yeah and and
that happens with some like trilogies and stuff too we're like you've watched them together and
now everything's one and but uh jason you get the first pick and um look i like the the thought
process that we're sitting there on the deserted island and you got to pick four movies that you want to watch the rest of your life.
Well, that's
different. Is it different?
How is that different than most rewatchable movies?
It is different because there are ones that I
cannot go without
versus ones that I just
if it's on, I'm going to watch this for sure.
Then let's just stick with the topic.
I was just trying to reemphasize
the identical thing
and he just i get what you're saying favorite vegetables jason go ahead um all right so i'm
gonna go with one that you know look if it's very rewatchable that means it's timeless
and it's timeless because it's back then it's still to come oh it's on my list it's back to the future yeah baby which
one the the og back to the future one uh look the second one is phenomenal but the original
back to the future is it's one of those rare movies where there's no miss there's no throw
away line or scene everything matters and it's all fun.
It's all connected.
If that is on, I could watch it time and time and time again,
and it holds up.
It holds up over time.
Yeah, the first one I think is the most rewatchable.
The second one has the coolest stuff.
Number two is on my list.
Now, I don't know.
Out of integrity, maybe I'll just not draft any Back to the Futures.
The hoverboard is like that's the sequence, especially when you were a kid.
But the first one as an adult, I agree that that's the one.
No matter where it is, I can just jump in and watch it.
How much of you took that because you didn't want me or Mike to have it?
I took that because of my list.
I thought that there's no possible way it would come back to me.
I got to do something with the 101.
It's good work. Because at the 101, honestly,
I've got about six movies that I love
that are all in the same tier.
So I did take that one just for you and Mike
because I know you both are huge Back to the Future fans.
All right.
You have a hoverboard behind you right now.
That's fair.
It's a good point.
It's my pick, right?
Yep.
Jurassic Park.
Ooh.
It's frightening in the dark.
I watched Jurassic Park again recently with the family.
That's Jaws, you psycho.
I know.
But it's just great.
It's well done.
Steven Spielberg has created a masterpiece,
and Jurassic Park's probably the most rewatched movie in my life that I've ever
seen. So I will go to Jurassic Park. The thing that gets me about Jurassic Park is
fantastic. Like I think it still holds up most of the special effects and everything that it's
still actually pretty solid. Yeah, it's not bad. But I forget every time. I forget how the movie opens with the Velociraptor scene.
Oh, yeah, where the guy gets eaten.
Yeah, it's just pure terror.
Yeah, that's pretty good.
You're like, when you're like, oh, I think of Jurassic Park.
It's them on the helicopter.
Oh, there you go.
It's playing the music.
It's the lush.
It's Hawaii.
But you're like, no, the movie starts in a very dark place.
Is this what we're doing the whole time now?
I don't know, man.
It's our show.
We can do what we want.
I'm taking Jurassic Park.
I don't know if it was the pick that I needed to make.
I don't know if Mike would have taken it.
Mike, go ahead. Just do what you got to do. You don't know if Mike would have taken it. Mike, go ahead.
Just do what you got to do.
You got two picks.
All right, number one,
the ultimate movie to watch as a child,
which it's a very 80s movie.
There are things that they have children saying and doing
that you would probably not do today
if you were to remake this movie.
However, the spirit of adventure, the soundtrack,
everything about this movie is just like, yeah, you got one.
It's the Goonies.
Okay, yeah, I wrote down two.
The Goonies, I mean, like setting booby traps,
finding hidden pirate treasure,
outsmarting adults.
Unfortunately, I can't even count it as a watchable movie.
Yeah, I know.
I've never seen it. I have some friends who have never seen The Goonies.
They didn't get to watch it as a kid.
That's me.
And so you've kind of missed out.
That's why he said it that way.
No, I've got...
Friends.
No, I have one of my other great buddies, too.
Just he didn't watch The Goonies as a kid, and you're like, how did you miss?
There's no way that you could go back now for the first time.
I don't know.
I do not know, honestly.
I don't know if it would hold up if you watched it now as an adult.
I think it would, because it's Spielberg, if I'm not mistaken.
And so it has all of those elements of one of his movies.
Is it really?
I thought so.
I think you might be right.
Hold on, hold on.
It is a very epic.
Oh, it's Richard Donner, but Spielberg, I feel like, is involved.
Executive producer and story writer.
Okay, there you go.
And story writer.
Yeah, yeah.
So Spielberg, it's got very. There's some sp writer. Yeah. So Spielberg goes, it's got.
There's some spiel in there.
Oh, a lot of it.
All right.
A lot of it.
You got the Goonies.
That's a good pick.
I knew that would be selected.
What about your second pick?
Oh, it's Die Hard, baby.
Die Hard.
That's on brand.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Once a year.
And we're not going to get into the Christmas debate, but once a year, every Christmas season, I watch it.
Yeah, I watch it every Christmas too.
On Christmas Eve when I'm wrapping some presents, I'm watching Die Hard.
And you can tune in at any moment.
This movie.
It's outstanding.
It holds up, especially for an action movie.
And there's a lot of explosions and things.
And you're like, no, they still look fantastic.
Bruce Willis at his peak.
Yeah, that's great.
I like that little fluff.
A little fluff.
A chest hair that he still got there.
Yeah, barefoot on the glass.
Oh, man.
Yes.
All right.
I am going to make my second pick.
Mike has what?
The Goonies and Die Hard.
Yep.
Jason went with Back to the Future 1.
I went with Jurassic Park.
And my second movie, I'm just going to go with it.
I don't know if you guys would have picked it or not,
but frankly Shawshank Redemption is, in my opinion,
one of the greatest films ever made
and one of the most rewatchable.
It's kind of that, you know, it's the drama epic combination
and it's kind of that you know it's the drama epic combination and uh it's flawless
it is a very very good movie i saw on a lot of lists it didn't make it on mine
nor mine or either of ours but it it is a really good movie i don't i wouldn't expect either of
you to have kind of this you know sophistic Yeah, the ability to appreciate the finer, deeper points of human emotion.
But go on.
I'm actually going to go with, ironically, a deeper movie.
The lack of fart jokes in Shawshank is really...
There weren't a lot.
It holds it back.
No, I'm going to go with a deeper movie.
They had to cut them for time.
That makes Shawshank look like Sesame Street here.
What?
Because it is another movie that I watch every year.
Elf.
Oh, okay.
All right.
This is on my list.
I see what you did.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
I mean, I could watch that.
I'm so insulted that you guys didn't have Shawshank.
I could watch Elf any time of the year, but I have to watch it every Christmas season
because it's the best Christmas movie of all time.
And then following this up, this was the one I didn't know what to do at the 101
because I thought Back to the Future, No Chance It Gets Back to me.
You were correct.
But my absolute favorite movie of all time is the movie I've seen the most.
So I truly believe it's rewatchability.
I have watched this movie 50 plus times and it's a three and a half hour movie.
I am taking Braveheart.
That's absurd.
See, I am actually on Mike's side on this one.
Rewatchable?
I don't find Braveheart to be meeting the rewatchable characteristics.
It's too long.
It's too good to not rewatch.
It is so long.
It is so long.
It is rewatchable, but it is not the most rewatchable.
But here's the thing.
You can pick that thing up anywhere.
You can watch it.
And fall asleep.
Except for the beginning, and you're like, oh, good Lord, I don't have the time today,
You don't need the time.
If you've seen it, you don't need the time.
You skip the beginning?
No, you watch a couple hours, and then you go to bed, and you watch a couple hours the
next day.
You don't have to do this in one sitting.
I was hoping you'd go to the mat for Braveheart.
That was my one hope here.
All right, coming back to me, I am tempted to work a comedy into my group here, but Mike has two picks.
And I am frankly afraid he's going to select another action movie movie that i i have to have on my list
i doubt it's on a bunch of oh gosh i doubt it's on a bunch of lists but i i truly believe it fits
this category fifth element the fifth the fifth element is in a very very rewatchable such a
rewatchable movie they've created the the technology in that movie is created in a way that it's just like
a caricature of things so it's not like it runs out of you know like we passed it in technology
so i think fifth ironically it's another bruce willis yeah i couldn't i couldn't go back to back
bruce um but coward he's apparently very good at making rewatchable action flicks.
So, Mike, your last two picks.
Yeah, we could do a best Bruce Willis draft. Oh, we could.
We should.
Yeah.
Die hard.
Die hard 2.
Oh, no, you would not take die hard 2 that high.
No, I'm coming back with a vengeance.
Yeah, much better than die hard 2.
All right.
What was that one, Looper?
Wasn't he in that too?
Oh, that was very good.
Yeah, Looper is fantastic.
Him and JGL.
Doopa doopa doopa doopa. Set him hanging with Mr. Looper? Wasn't he in that too? Oh, that was very good. Yeah, Looper is fantastic. Him and JGL. Scooby-Dooby-Dooby-Dooba.
Set him hanging with Mr. Looper?
Reference that you're trying to make?
I appreciate that you picked up on that.
Yeah.
All right.
Rewatchable movies.
Best TGIF shows.
Is that another draft we're doing?
Oh, that's great.
Family Matters 101.
Scooby-Dooby-Dooby-Dooba. Family Matters? I was not that into Family Matters. Oh, that's great. Family Matters 101.
Family Matters? I was not that into Family Matters.
Oh, I loved it.
It was just, I don't know if that's why.
What was better than Family Matters?
Boy Meets World.
That was TJF.
Yeah, as was Step by Step, which I liked more than Family Matters.
That was TJF.
All right, this is getting way off track.
Mike, two picks to finish your draft.
Okay.
Okay.
Multi-pass.
My first pick here, I don't know if people will agree with me,
but this is one of those movies that there are so many sequences in the movie
where they, you know what I mean,
just like a 10 to 15-minute chunk where you're like,
do-do, do-do, do-do.
I can get, no, that's actually, no, no, no, no.
I thought you were going to go
which would fit. I'm going to go
with The Dark Knight. From the opening
sequence of... Isn't that a pretty long
movie too? Yes.
But you think it's chunked in a way that
lets it be rewatchable. Yes.
From the opening bank
high scene where the Joker is revealed,
Joker breaking into the meeting, and he makes the pencil disappear.
As opposed to Braveheart, which is chunked into, like,
William Wall is growing up.
Yeah.
William Wall is getting married.
There's just way too much going on in there.
Don't spoil the ending.
Okay.
Okay.
So Dark Knight, I don't know.
Oh, man.
It's long, man.
It is super long, and I don't finish it every time,
but that's one of those where I'm like, on Netflix, what am I going to watch?
18 minutes shorter than Braveheart.
You're like, eh, I guess I'm watching The Dark Knight again.
Honest to goodness, that is a super rewatchable movie.
Thank you.
Whenever I do the opposite, like when I start that,
which from time to time when I've got nothing to watch, I'm like,
and then I'm like, yeah, let's put that on i liked that honest it just grabs funny phrase
honest to goodness it just grabs me for the rest of the rest of the movie well why don't you guys
kiss then all right mike your last pick all right oh man there's so many i know my list is huge
there's so many good ones and braveheart and shawshank were not on there so the list
remained mostly intact uh i gotta put a comedy on there and i just i like goofball
comedy and there's no finer example of that to me than airplane okay oh wow i think airplane's
great the that is that's a little older. Yeah. Oh, it's definitely older.
My grandpaps could rewatch that whenever he wanted.
Yeah.
Well, after he rewound.
Right, right.
It would take a while to rewind that.
I'm pretty sure that I've owned Airplane on like every single medium possible.
Like, well, I got the VHS.
Well, I got to get the DVD now.
Got to get the streaming.
But, I mean mean just every line
in the movie Airplane is quotable.
I knew you would get a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar movie
into your list. Oh yeah. You like
gladiator movies?
Alright.
Oh it's back to me? Yeah.
Oh crap. I have to finish
with... There's so
many. Can we go five rounds? We've got
time for five rounds. I could go 20 rounds.
All right, let's go five. Mike,
your list stays intact. My next
pick will be, because I have
the room to do it,
I'm going to go with Star Wars Return
of the Jedi. Okay. Star Wars
Return of the Jedi, the best of the
original trilogy. I agree.
In terms of rewatchability. Maybe not best
in terms of...
Empire's great, but Return of the jedi as a kid he's a jedi man he's finally got the sword
and they're riding around on those uh the the hover bikes through the woods and indoor i mean
come on that scene was amazing as a kid so i'll go with star wars get one of those in there all right I could not live with myself making it
through this draft without uh zombie edition without a Jim Carrey movie yeah and when I think
of the most rewatchable it's Dumb and Dumber yeah Dumb and Dumber is should have known my audience
it's so stupid you don't need you can turn that on at any point and just watch the jokes in each scene.
They don't matter.
The story doesn't matter.
It's fantastic.
So it's the exact opposite of Braveheart.
You're going dumb and dumber.
Yeah, I'm going dumb and dumber.
Does that surprise you?
All right, one more.
All right.
That eliminates the comedy that was on my list.
The true most rewatchable.
You saved it for a pick you didn't even know we were going to make.
Correct.
The true most rewatchable movie.
And here's why.
Because the true most rewatchable movies to me are the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
I could just watch the Marvel movies forever.
I could turn them on over and over and over.
I've probably watched most of them three or four times.
So the reason I didn't.
I'm going to it on my list was just because picking one is very difficult.
So if I have to pick one, the most rewatchable period would be what I'm writing down.
You're going with Marvel.
But I am going with the Avengers Infinity War.
I'm just going to take the best one.
I get all the superheroes. I can rewatch it. I don't know the Avengers Infinity War. I'm just going to take the best one.
I get all the superheroes.
I can rewatch it.
I don't know what you wrote down.
I wrote down Ragnarok.
Oh, interesting. I think the simplest, like Guardians of the Galaxy, you can watch this forever.
Yeah, yeah.
That one's great.
But I want all the superheroes in mine.
All right, I'll round out my five with Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
Oh, it would have been my pick.
Would it have been your pick?
Yeah.
It would have been my extra pick.
I was very torn between that and Airplane.
I had a hard time going.
I didn't think Jason would take it,
but the Star Wars Return of the Jedi versus Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade,
it's such a good movie.
It is really good.
It really is profoundly better than the other two.
It makes you think that the other two are good.
There is no third.
Oh, gosh.
Least watchable movies.
Honestly, The Last Crusade made me believe that Indiana Jones 1 and 2 were great.
And then I watched them again.
I was like, these are terrible.
They're just fine.
They're just fine.
Yeah.
All right.
That's my final pick.
Raiders is okay.
Right. Raiders just fine. Yeah. All right. That's my final pick. Raiders is okay. Right.
Raiders is better.
Yeah.
I mean, it's so strange because Raiders is like regarded as.
Fine.
No, it's regarded as great cinema classic.
I mean, I.
Probably did some stuff for its day.
Yes.
You have to factor those things in as well.
You know, like Airplane.
Last Crusade.
Airplane is so good.
All right.
For this.
You get one final pick.
I am going to go.
This movie has it all, man.
It's got some action.
It's got comedy.
It's got some romance.
It's got just some heartfelt stuff.
Just The Princess Bride.
Yeah.
The Princess Bride. You can just throw that bad guy on there at any moment. got some just some heartfelt stuff just the princess bride yeah the princess bride you can
just throw that bad guy on there at any moment and like the performances throughout that entire movie
the the the idea that it's a grandfather reading the story to his son like it's just it's so
fantastic it's a great pick so is that is that. Oh, man, I can't wait to talk about our waiver wire picks here.
The only waiver wire picks that we didn't get to that I think deserve there
were A Few Good Men and The Matrix.
Oh, The Matrix is great.
I don't know if I've ever seen A Few Good Men start to finish.
I think I've seen it once.
Oh, good.
Gladiator is another one of those movies I can watch over and over and over.
Oh, my gosh, that's not rewatchable.
Dude.
It's so long.
I'm with Jason.
That one's a little more rewatchable.
Another long.
It might be longer.
It shouldn't be, but it is.
Another long.
I searched for Gladiator length, and I got the length of a Jeep Gladiator.
Well, let's have it.
What is it?
218 inches.
Thank you.
Ocean's Eleven.
Yeah.
So fun and easy. Armageddon.ageddon when you said oh it's got a
little bit of action a little bit of romance a little bit of comedy um but my here's my dark
horse that is not a dark horse okay this is a universally hated movie i mean people don't like
it what they said it was bad and not only do I really genuinely like it.
I love watching this.
It is so rewatchable to me.
I've watched it 10 times.
And if I saw it on, I'd be like, oh, heck yeah.
And people don't like this.
Oh, people hate it.
Troy.
Oh, yeah.
That movie sucked.
It was so good.
Brad Pitt is so good in that.
That was one of the worst movies ever made.
Oh, so good.
That's the one where everyone.
That's also got, what's his name?
It's got everybody.
No, but the other male protagonist in that movie.
Well, you've got a couple of them, but you're thinking of Orlando Blue.
No, no.
Keep going.
Oh, the Scottish guy?
The guy who's in Succession?
Eric Bana?
Sean Bean?
The original Hulk?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I might be thinking of a different movie.
But that's the movie where they're all from the same area,
but everyone has a completely different accent.
He has rough.
Yeah, who cares?
All right, Mike, do you have anything else on your final?
Oh, yeah.
I mean, just absolute popcorn garbage here.
Blood Sports.
Demolition Man. We were just talking about this another
show good that's fantastic is speed a rewatchable uh yeah i mean it's on there probably no i mean
it's on there and then uh home alone was on my list oh that's good i'm but you took elf and i
didn't want to double up on it well i i mean i already had a christmas movie and I didn't want to double up on it. Dang it. Well, I mean, I already had a Christmas movie,
so I didn't want to.
Tombstone was also on my list.
Tombstone, I could fit that.
Is that rewatchable?
That's rewatchable, yeah.
Okay.
It's a very popcorn Western.
That's not a long, dramatic one.
That's more of a Hollywood Western.
Now, what's the...
What did we learn today?
I didn't know we were still talking.
There's like the two westerns, right?
There's more than that, but go on.
But around that time period, there was Tombstone,
and I feel like there was, in my head,
there was one that came out similar,
the way that Volcano and Dante's Peak came out
at the exact same time.
I don't remember another one at that time.
Am I just misremembering?
Yeah, I don't know.
Is there one called Maverick?
Maverick was fantastic.
That's Gibson.
That's Gibson.
That's a poker movie.
And Jodie Foster. Oh, fantastic. So good. Is there one called Maverick? Is that? Maverick was fantastic. That's Gibson. That's Gibson. That's a poker movie. And Jodie Foster.
Oh, fantastic.
So good.
So good.
Very rewatchable.
I learned today that we have retired another profession to put with the tap dancers and
