Starting point is 00:00:00 Spitwads, got a great spit hit episode for you today. We know you're going to laugh. We know you're going to love it. It's one of our favorite episodes. We've even got a favorite animated movies draft. Make sure you enjoy the show. What happens when three buffoons give life advice, explore unrealistic situations, and give random topics more thought than they probably deserve?
Starting point is 00:00:26 It's the Spitballers Podcast with Andy, Mike, and Jason. Be-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-cha-cha-cha! Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. Oh! That works. Classic start, very refreshing
Starting point is 00:00:44 ending. Yeah. I liked it. I'm a fan. Andy, Mike, and Jason, welcome into the Spitballers podcast. What is it about something refreshing that makes you exhale like a dragon? What the? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Oh, was that good? Could it be refreshing without doing that? Could you have just this incredibly refreshing drink and then just go, hmm? I don't think, that's the definition of what makes something refreshing. Do you go, ah? It's the contrast between how tired and hot and sweaty you are and then that sound, which would mean like cool and refreshing and you fixed the problem with being all hot and sweaty.
Starting point is 00:01:32 So in your head, you know it's hot, so you're making an onomatopoeia of steam? Like that's... You're pouring the cold water on the hot rock and it goes... I feel like it's... Because that's what the rock would say the hot rock and it goes. I feel like it's what the rock would say. The rock is very refreshed.
Starting point is 00:01:48 It's the man in the desert with the, you know, they see the water and you finally get that drink. It's salve. The most important thing here is that we were able to use onomatopoeia correctly in a sentence. Well done, Michael. That's what I'm here to do. It was what the rock would say. It's song. What does The Rock say?
Starting point is 00:02:09 Yes, yes. You can find us on Twitter at SpitballersPod. SpitballersPod.com is the website. We invite you to head over there, find out how to be an official Spitwad supporter. I'm going to level with the listenership. We haven't been together for a recording in a little bit of time. And that's, but we hit it real quick with rock jokes. I mean, the rock jokes were ready to go super fast.
Starting point is 00:02:35 We had pre-recorded some episodes. Spitballers don't get rust. We're always ready for terrible dad jokes. Well, the range of possible episode success is very from bad to kind of better than bad. I mean, it's really not much of a difference. It's a low bar. It's a low bar. But we appreciate everybody out there listening,
Starting point is 00:02:58 subscribing, supporting, leaving us a review on Apple Podcasts. It's time for some Would You Rather. Would You Rather. Would you rather? Before I throw a would you rather question in your way, I will check in with Al. Al Borland, are you with us? I'm with you. Okay. And you would say that even though it's been a little bit of time since we recorded a
Starting point is 00:03:22 new episode, we're on it. 10 out of 10 so far? 11. Oh, perfect. All right. Would you rather... This question comes in from the website. Presley has a question. Would you rather look super buff with your shirt on, but look obese when it comes off, or look obese with your shirt on, but be super buff when it comes off. Or look obese with your shirt on, but be super buff when it comes off. Oh, man. You know, Mike's always made the joke that if he was super buff, he would never wear a shirt.
Starting point is 00:03:55 So this is just... That's true. This would be just being buff for Mike. I don't know why you're calling it a joke. Well, so I guess it's an easy answer for you but for the rest of us yeah but mike can't go into like public places then i guess you won't care he won't care i don't know if it applies i'll be walking out front waiting for my friends and they're like uh uh officer there's a very shredded individual just walking around like sir what are you doing just waiting my waiting for my
Starting point is 00:04:25 friends looking buff what's wrong with that i have a shirt on in public far more than i have a shirt off in public but i'm i'm realizing so so it makes me think like taking the advantage of looking good in a shirt, that would be really, really nice. But eventually, you do have to take it off. Yeah. And then reality hits. The reveal? The reveal? This is a tough question.
Starting point is 00:04:56 My situation was, where's the most prominent place in public that you don't have a shirt on if you're a fella it's the beach it's at the pool and it's like okay do you want to be looking real buff but then you can't take the shirt off at the at the pool why does that guy always swim with his shirt on but then i then i remember dude you just just wear some super skin tight, like you're going scuba diving. You basically got spandex on. You got some kind of wetsuit on showing off all the muscles. It's still a shirt. That guy wears a wetsuit at the public pool?
Starting point is 00:05:37 Yeah. Well, he's going in the deep end. Like a rash guard. That's where I was looking for. A rash guard when you're surfing. in the deep end. Like a rash guard. That's where I was looking for. A rash guard when you're surfing, because then you're like, oh, I care about my health, but I
Starting point is 00:05:47 also care about UV rays. I really don't want to get a sunburn, so I wear this shirt. Don't ever ask me to take it off. What about the doctor's office? Sometimes they ask you to take it off there, right? How does the magic trick work if it's just
Starting point is 00:06:03 a lift? I imagine whatever you you lift it comes pouring out it just pours out your belly as soon as you start lifting yeah it just goes down wait a minute we're gonna get these shirts that's what it should be whatever your cup whatever's covered is ripped so if you're wearing a tank you've got chubby arms you've got to wear you've got to wear a long sleeve shirt if you want to be fully cut that makes this question impossible to take anything but being ripped shirtless because here's what i think mike swims in his sweater mike's og idea of always being shirtless look if i'm at home i i mean i pretty much already don't have a shirt on now we'd have all of these recordings with me shirtless for sure all of our live events shirtless well can
Starting point is 00:06:52 you do the paint on shirts would that count is that oh absolutely that should count yeah that's a that's a great loophole yeah you could do that i don't know you could get into are you wearing a shirt no but you're not no got to have arms through something. My definition of a shirt is my arms have gone in and then out the shirt. My definition of a shirt is my arms have gone through something. That's what makes it a shirt. I've gone up in the shirt and then I've exited the shirt. No, I get it.
Starting point is 00:07:21 That's the point. So you do not have a shirt on when it's painted. So if you take the always ripped with your shirt off and you paint on a shirt, you're good to go. You'll get into a mall. You'll get into a Target with a painted on shirt before they come. Oh, I'm going to paint a tux on and go into a fancy restaurant. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Excuse me, shirt. Your nipples are showing. Oh, you see that, huh? But they're pretty ripped, right? I got ripples. And then you have to act really shocked. What? Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:07:53 What happened to my shirt? Oh, my goodness. Okay, next question. Well, did we answer? I'm taking the shirtless muscles. I'm taking the shirtless. I guess I'm with you guys on that one. Once I realized I had to wear a turtleneck in the other one.
Starting point is 00:08:08 Vishal from Patreon. From now on, every movie you watch will be filmed in another language. Would you rather have subtitles or English voices dubbed over the film? Oh, man. So every movie you watch, it's got another language, and you have to enjoy it with either subtitles or dubbed voices. Oh. Yeah, I mean, it's very easy for me because I strongly prefer the subtitles.
Starting point is 00:08:34 I don't like the overdub. My brain knows. I mean, well, obviously it doesn't match, but just like your brain says something does not compute. It's like when you are in VR and it's's moving but your body knows you're not moving is there's just something that doesn't jive but when it's it's the original language it's fine i could read it's not a problem yeah the problem with that is you you have to be focused the one thing i've learned is that you can't watch a a subtitled film with half focus because then you don't know what's going on it's it's
Starting point is 00:09:07 impossible i can't you know i am one to play on my phone whilst you're not really watching it oh sure i am i'm a multitasker and he's always said that with a badge of great honor like i can play what is it jewel uh whatever any of those mindless games i'll play them all day on my phone while watching a show and i could tell you what happened in both of them but not if it's subtitled the problem is to put this to like an actual test put a movie in front of you you have never seen have you play your candy the whole time and we'll and we'll see what information you're actually retaining i will call who the murderer is halfway through because i'm so into it in tune with that movie uh the the i think the biggest problem is i feel like when there's dubbed voices they don't have
Starting point is 00:09:58 good actors do those or you know that's what i was gonna say it always feels like the worst actors doing this voiceover work they're not going out and getting you know that's what i was gonna say it always feels like the worst actors doing this voiceover work they're not going out and getting you know tom hanks to to do vo tom hanks has better things to do exactly all the good actors are busy doing real jobs acting yeah yes well i will say this like if you go watch the the studio ghibli, which are, I mean, those end up getting dubbed over all the Japanese animation movies, like Howl's Moving Castle. And they have them act and do the voice differently. And I don't know. Watch these.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Compared to what you're imagining that this actor would do, there is a very distinct acting style. This is just, I guess, for animation. But that feels okay for animated. That feels better for animated. Because my worry is that half of the acting that you're watching, every movie you watch, you're not going to hear the voice. I'd rather hear some foreign language and get all the expression. Because I feel like we can perceive the expression in that other language. And then I'll read.
Starting point is 00:11:04 Like you said, we put subtitles on almost everything now, too. I do find it to be a slightly different experience, though. Sure. Because it takes a little bit more. Like you're focusing. You have to read it. So there's time that you're not looking at the acting, right? But there's the benefit, though, because when I do not speak the language, I have no idea if these people are tremendous actors or actresses.
Starting point is 00:11:27 I'm just like, wow, you're really, really good. You're really, really foreign. It's so great. You're so foreign. The emotion you're putting there. I don't know. Because it's your emotion. You're watching it, and you're putting your emotion on top of it.
Starting point is 00:11:39 You know, I know my answer to this, and I know it for one reason. For one punch. One punch man taught me that you can watch a show with subtitles, and it is excellent. Oh, is that a fully subtitled no English movie or show? I think they have subtitles of it, but it's the OGs better, man. One punch! All right, Thomas from... By the way, I'm going to go subtitles at the bottom.
Starting point is 00:12:02 All right. Thomas from Patreon, would you rather have to tip a maximum of 10 cents every time you eat out? That's brutal. I couldn't handle that. Or never be allowed to take part in the pre-meal complimentary bread and chips at a restaurant? Wait. So you go to a nice Mexican restaurant, chips and salsa.
Starting point is 00:12:24 That's not allowed. I go to a steakhouse. I go to Texas Roadhouse. You don't get converted rolls. But they have a whipped cinnamon honey butter, though. Yeah, they're served, but you can't touch them. Oh, my word. So there is an awkward moment with the waiter or waitress there where they come back.
Starting point is 00:12:44 They're like, what's wrong? They didn't touch anything. But in the situation where I eat two orders and the waitress has so kindly brought me heaps of chips and bread, I tip 10 cents. That is right. That is right. That is. Well, a maximum you can tip anywhere from zero to 10 cents in this scenario. Now, to be clear, I would tip nothing.
Starting point is 00:13:09 It is so much- Oh, because it's more insulting. Oh, 100%. If you're tipping 10 cents- All right, you have to tip 10 cents. Yes, that is so much more insulting. How many times can you go to a restaurant as the 10 cent tipper? One time.
Starting point is 00:13:24 You don't think you get a grace period of the second time they maybe don't remember you or maybe if you stagger your times, like one's a lunch, one's a dinner. I mean, I don't know. You're hoping for a different staff. I never worked in food service, so I don't know the tales that they are telling
Starting point is 00:13:38 in the room where it happens of like, this dude gave me a 10 cent tip. I know exactly what you do. If you're in that situation, you are taking the name down of that waiter or waitress and you are asking on your next visit, is this waiter or waitress there? And maybe you get away with two then.
Starting point is 00:13:56 Yeah, so two times you're like, how was it, sir? The meal was spectacular. I will never see you again. That's right. I would have an extensive collection of wigs because you know real nice looking just crazy wigs that change my appearance enough to where i can go back because that is the problem right you find the place you like look at you
Starting point is 00:14:19 it's crazy wig guy again he only tips tips seven cents yeah that might alert even more just what is this guy with this long punk rock hair and a yosemite sam mustache now can i get her can i get around this by just setting like my apple watch or like my shoes on the table as a as the gift in in lieu of money so every single time yeah absolutely i'm giving an object away like my but it has to be at least as nice as an apple watch he left his rhinestone belt on the table he left me five shares of tesla what a nice man oh that is a very nice man right now that's a good tip yeah i look i mean it always comes back to weight loss for me, but I think being allowed to tip will also stop me from eating all those delicious rolls and chips. There's actually a benefit to my body, even though there is a punishment to my mouth.
Starting point is 00:15:20 I'm going to take that. I will tip and I will not partake in the pre-meal deliciousness i don't know if you know this there's some sometimes when you let yourself get hungrier you tend to eat more of the main meal that's the old don't shop at the grocery store while you're hungry trick yeah when you eat the appetizer there's it is a little bit more difficult to finish the main meal. But I will say this. For you. All right. What do you guys think turns into more caloric intake? The appetizer, where it's unlimited, it's free.
Starting point is 00:15:59 We've all done the chips and salsa routine, where by the time your meal shows up, you're like, uh-oh. Yeah. Mistakes were made. Or if I skip the appetizer now i'm probably always hungry for dessert and i'm going to end up eating far more desserts where which side of that coin would you rather be on of of overeating the appetizer or always end up getting an apple tartlet if it's a caloric question if this is which one is worse for me that it's the appetizers because when i get my slice of pie i got a slice of pie and when it's done it i don't
Starting point is 00:16:34 order another pie but when i finish that bowl of chips or those rolls and my meal's taking a little while guess what i get more chips more rolls please and i'll just it's it's the never-ending well it's rude if you don't eat it we've discussed this yeah exactly tommy from twitter wants to know would you rather have a really really good pizza or a really really good hamburger so maybe this one will be simple maybe not it's it's simple for Mike. So I'll sit back and wait. Yeah. Mike's going to answer a hamburger. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:08 I think everybody has to answer hamburger. Really? What is a really, really nice pizza? Like a Chicago deep dish meat pizza. Yeah. I mean, that's a very good pizza. Yeah. I like them, but I'll be honest, and I know I'm going to lose half my fans here.
Starting point is 00:17:30 I prefer thin crust to the big deep dish. I'm going to lose half my fans. No, I think, look, I like deep dish. I'm not against deep dish, but it is overrated when it comes to just what it is people freak out about a Chicago deep dish like it's you know the Mona Lisa and it's really just a real thick heavy slice of pizza that's usually stuffed with a little bit too much stuff I prefer a real nice thin crust to a real nice deep dish I like a real I probably take, I think you're right. I think I would take a New York style.
Starting point is 00:18:08 Now do you want New York style or do you want hand toss where it's just medium thickness? Yeah, I mean New York's kind of like that. I mean they're not pure thin. Oh no, real New York pizzas. Oh no, they are. They're like roll it up like a burrito. You fold the pizza. I guess hand toss. Yeah, okay, we're all taking're like, roll it up like a burrito. You fold the pizza.
Starting point is 00:18:26 I guess hand tossed. Yeah. Okay. We're all taking a burger. Is that what we learned? Yeah. Because a real good burger is unbelievable. It's the tops. Al, are you with us or are you going pizza?
Starting point is 00:18:35 No, I'm 100% with you. I had the same thoughts. Pizza's pizza to me. I love it, but it's all the same. Here's what I know. Really, really, really, really crappy pizza is delicious i mean this the the cheapest one you go and you get those 10 pizzas for 10 out of the freezer aisle on at the tortillas or whatever they are so good i mean i've never seen an ingredients list as large or as dangerous as Totino's pizza,
Starting point is 00:19:05 but they are so good. And if you get, I mean, I know in the West side, we've got Peter Piper pizza, right? That's like a place where you go to play some games and then pizza's an afterthought. It's just a piece of cardboard with some cheese on it. They're so good because what's a bad pizza there's that doesn't exist so yeah burgers you can have bad meat you can overcook it you can undercook it yeah no perfect burger all right let's get into the situation room spit wads are you worried about all the chemicals you're using to keep your yard looking its best?

Starting point is 00:21:11 No. Got any favorites? Okay. I haven't read them, so we're entering the Situation Room blind, as we always do. All right. This one comes in from a supporter of the show, a patron, named Toilet Exploding Poops. That is their name. That is their name. That is their name.
Starting point is 00:21:27 And I respect that. It's a great name. You are in a department store trying on a new coat that you may purchase. While trying on the new coat, you realize a different customer has now tried on your original coat that you set on the rack next to the other coats and it's looking in the mirror to see if it fits what is your next move oh you gotta talk it up man you gotta tell that that person how good they look in that thing i want to build it up that's that's my go-to is as soon as i see this it's hysterical to me
Starting point is 00:22:05 i'm having a good time i can't believe someone's trying on my coat i want to be like yeah that looks good that is perfect for you what's your end game though oh my end game is letting them know yeah that's my that's my coat you can't have it i just want to build them up and have them fall in love with this coat because hey at the end maybe they're like I'll give you $100 for that coat it makes me look so good I thought you were doing a con man sales job here whatever the price of the coat the new coat
Starting point is 00:22:33 you're trying to double that so you can so you can buy a new coat but how do you get your cell phone back out of the pocket cell phone in the coat pocket huh I'm a pants man myself oh i what makes me smile is knowing that i mean you don't come up with the situation unless you've been in this situation like this coat you take i mean i guess a coat you don't go into a changing room. You just try it on, right? What if the person that's trying it on is just some really sweaty, overweight, stinky,
Starting point is 00:23:14 just looks like came right in off the street from the construction job and is now trying on your wool lined inside coat at what point do you not want the coat back uh yeah then you say could you please just give me what's in the pockets that's yours now enjoy your coat sir so here's the thing we're in arizona we don't have like we don't have a lot of coats but i i wonder what is a coat by the way yeah what's the difference between a coat and a jacket that's what i would like to know oh wow how would you define that that's a great question uh a jacket seems like something that is under $50. A coat seems like this is a little bit fancier.
Starting point is 00:24:07 I don't know that that is the real baseline differentiator. It's the Burlington Coat Factory. Wait, there's something called a coat jacket too, right? Oh no. Oh no. Exactly $50. The coat jacket is on the money,
Starting point is 00:24:23 tax included, it's $50. It's just a coat or a jacket? Sir, that's a coat jacket is on the money, tax included. It's $50. It's just a coat or a jacket. Sir, that's a coat jacket. I'm surprised you didn't know that. But I don't have any like, oh, this is my coat. This is my favorite coat. I don't own that. I feel like if I lived back east, I'd have a favorite coat.
Starting point is 00:24:40 That's what I'm saying. So if you're trying on these coats coats that must have been your favorite coat that this other human is now wearing now what if this other person they're not super sweaty they're not disgusting they just like it and so they walk up to the front lanes they leave wearing your coat do you do track them down you're talking about a coat thief i mean they're not they didn't pay for it they didn't i think they're trying if they didn't try to pay for it the register they're going to the register but they have left do you i mean is there a situation where you would just let them just i think in that situation if they're going to the register they're trying to pay for it which means i'm just going to
Starting point is 00:25:18 watch this target employee try to find the price on this coat for a while. That's what I'm going to do. You're going to get the popcorn? Yeah, I think I'll enjoy it. And then they just type in $39.99. Oh, no. Dang it. And they've paid for your coat. Yeah, haven't you ever gotten that? They're like, what? How much was it?
Starting point is 00:25:35 I've been asked that before. Yeah, for sure. Oh, yeah. And you're like, I don't know. $8? They're like, okay. And you're like, crap. Would you have believed me if I had said $3.99?
Starting point is 00:25:46 That's when you give them the number and it's accidentally more than what it really costs in the store and you're like, dang it! Okay, so this person checks out successfully with your coat. What do you do then? I've paid for it, sir. It's gone.
Starting point is 00:26:00 You shake their hand and you say you win. You just say you win and walk away coatless oh man and that's expensive too because they said this was a coat oh that's true over 50 john luke from patreon you uh you three have been commissioned to run the world's first inconvenience store oh finally what kinds of products do you sell? I sell full gallon milks that expire tomorrow. That's number one on my list. Don't you sell two gallon milks that expire tomorrow? As big as I can find.
Starting point is 00:26:34 As big as you can get. I can tell you everything is wrapped in those plastic cases where it is physically impossible to get in unless you have an industrial grade knife to cut in. That is 100%. And the reality is most of the time when you're opening that package, you end up with a scar. Yeah, you do. It just happens every time. You end up with a scar. All items have to be bagged like produce with those little pull-off bags that come in the in the produce section where you can't get them apart from each other then you have to wrap them
Starting point is 00:27:08 up but when you do not have twisty ties when you get to the register there are no bags this is we do not provide paper or plastic you wish you wish here load it up into your not cart okay because we don't have carts either. Yeah. Oh no. You have a basket. You have baskets, but they're very tiny. Yes. Small baskets.
Starting point is 00:27:31 Really, really small baskets. Oh my goodness. Or, or we have, uh, we do have some bags that we can load up, but they're,
Starting point is 00:27:38 they've got the breakaway handles. Yeah. These are, these are going down for sure. Now, what about the layout? Is there anything we can do you know the registers at the back of the store yeah you could put the register in in
Starting point is 00:27:50 the back or separate it three registers to the far back left three registers to the far back right oh do that like like uh department stores do i hate that oh where you can never figure out where you're supposed to buy things because it's like there's a... Like they're doing that on purpose. It's so weird. Self-service raw meat counter, obviously. We don't hire for that. You do it yourself. You're the butcher.
Starting point is 00:28:14 You're the butcher is the name of the store. That's what the name of the store is. You're the butcher. You come in. We've got some dull knives for you to use. Yeah. And some meat that's out. Yeah, it's a community meat pile.
Starting point is 00:28:28 And so just not the most sanitary. All right. Michael from the website, you walk outside. New situation, guys. You got to reset from You're the Butcher. Michael from the website, you walk outside and determine that two animals are dying. You only have time to save one. Would you rather give CPR to the walrus or the Heimlich maneuver to the porcupine?
Starting point is 00:28:56 Oh, my goodness. What? How does one Heimlich a porcupine? Well, that is the situation you're in, Mike. I mean, what's the downside of the cpr to the walrus is that they're big and that's a big mouth man they've got giant tusks that you're putting your face right in front of yeah yeah i mean but they're incapacitated the walrus is is there a worse animal to give cpr to like a snake oh then a walrus oh that just gave me the heebie-jeebies
Starting point is 00:29:26 you've never resuscitated a snake before not yet i don't want to i mean that is i feel like i'm not afraid of snakes but a snake it's in you and you you exhale into their mouth they like just straighten out like you're blowing up a balloon animal yeah they do explode if you've got great lungs. All right, here's the problem with the walrus. I killed it. The Heimlich maneuver to the porcupine, you know what the outcome is. It's not great.
Starting point is 00:29:51 Yes, you do. But the walrus, they've got really big lungs. So this CPR is at least an hour. You're doing this for a long time. I can Heimlich this porcupine without putting the porcupines back on my chest. I feel like you ever watch dumb and dumber you know the legs into the belly maneuver that's not technically gonna work but i feel like if i put this porcupine on it if i put the porcupine on its back and i use my hands to really
Starting point is 00:30:19 get in there and heimlich it out you know does that not count it's not the heimlich yeah that's true the heimlich is from behind you put your arms around the front and then i think the heimlich is for humans though so it's always not a heimlich cpr is for if cpr works on a walrus you can heimlich a porcupine that's what i'm saying this is just easy science but how can you possibly pick the porcupine i don't know it doesn't it's not gonna kill you right has anybody ever died from a porcupine impalement injury i'm on it i mean because i feel like yes you've got it's like falling it's like would you rather give let me ask you this way. CPR to a walrus for an hour or fall on top of a cactus? Yeah, that sounds terrible.
Starting point is 00:31:10 I'm not falling on the cactus. But the CPR is going to be gross. Yeah, but I saved a walrus life. And he might bite your face off. Well, yeah. But I guess he's unconscious. An unconscious walrus. You ever seen a walrus full of gratitude?
Starting point is 00:31:27 I have not. They're very hug friendly jason is still efforting this has anybody died of a porcupine injury i porcupine quills can kill that's from the smithsonian so i assume that really is about humans i also saw a headline when lions attack porcupines humans suffer i just saw a headline lion kills porcupine but is quilled to death i'm not doing cpr if that thing could kill a lion it could kill me for sure i guess i'm kissing a walrus. Yep. Come here, Andy Reid. The Spitballers Draft. All right. Today on the Spitballers, we are drafting the best animated movies. Now, here are the rules, gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Four picks. One Pixar, one DreamWorks, one Disney, and then one flex option. So you can pick anything you want in that flex option, but you have to have at least one Pixar, one DreamWorks, one Disney. This is a lot of movies to choose from. There are a lot. And Mike, because he scattered his way into our hearts to start the show, he gets to kick off this draft. Yes, today's episode is sponsored by Sprite. I can't wait to take a goofy movie. Hey, look, it's all yours if you want it.
Starting point is 00:33:02 I mean, we know how the pollsters feel about a goofy movie. It's not very strong. Yeah, they did not work out for you. Mike has the first pick, so I'm curious which one he's going to take. Because when we have these slotted-in spots where you have to have one of each kind, there's some strategy. There is absolutely some gamesmanship. But the flex spot, the wild card, that really mixes it up. Because now you're worried that somebody's going to take yours does one pixar one dreamworks one disney and one flex
Starting point is 00:33:29 and i am nervous about the flex i don't know why jace is shaking his head i'm shaking my head there's infinite cartoons and animated movies man there's no way i am taking the one that you want if i if i, then congratulations. You have picked the best movie. But I am going to take my flex pick with my first pick because this is truly the one animated movie. If I didn't get it in this draft, I would be very upset because it's the best animated feature that's been created. It is recent. But I'm going to take Spider-Man into the Spider-Verse. It is.
Starting point is 00:34:09 And that's how I know it wasn't for you, Jason, because you didn't really care for it. Oh, I loved it. Are you kidding me? I thought you had a problem with the end. Oh, I did think the end got a little out of control with the animation, but I've seen the movie like five times. But into the Spider-Verse, I went into the spider verse i didn't i went into that movie i didn't know much that was actually uh i think it came out streaming on my birthday
Starting point is 00:34:30 and we didn't see it in the theaters and it was like okay well it's my birthday we're watching this and i was blown away the animation is unbelievable it is hilarious it is great for kids it is great for adults it is it is the masterpiece that they created okay that was on my list as a wild card choice so i'm i'm surprised it went so soon now i had no choice did i i'm not confused here your wild card can be another of the other categories okay yes it is i believe i just wanted to make sure that we didn't have a separate category. Okay. It was. Yeah. All right. So Jason, you're up. Mike has Spider-Man.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Wow. Number one overall. I assumed that he would be taking the largest powerhouse that has ever been made in animated movies. It's Toy Story. Pixar's flagship, the creation of computer animation. It's fine. Not only is it fine the movie is fine awesome
Starting point is 00:35:28 it's iconic more than anything else out there i can't think of any any animated movie that is more iconic than toy story so i will take toy story and yeah i mean it's so iconic. They turned it into its own land in one of the Disney parks. Oh, wait, that wasn't Toy Story. Would you like to say anything? Yeah, it's not Spider-Man land either. No, I'm saying for Pixar movies that one of them turned into a full land. You were just calling it the most iconic, so I was stepping in. Are you trying to say that it bugs?
Starting point is 00:36:06 Do you not know? It's Cars Land, man cars land oh yeah okay but we're talking about the movies right or are we talking about disney parks now tell me this uh how many rides are there for cars and how many rides are there for toy story because toy story is going to win that one cars land oh now we're now we're in it but so cars land is what three rides i think there's three pixar three toy stories as well right nice one all right anyway it's to you all right i thought uh yeah i mean toy story makes sense i would have liked it to slip through I didn't expect it to I thought that would be the one on one before Spider-Man was picked I'm going to take my Disney I'm going to take the Lion King
Starting point is 00:36:52 with my first of my two picks here and then I've got to pivot to another I guess I could take another Disney as a flex but I'm not going to I'm actually going to take WALL-E I'm going to take wally oh i'm gonna take wally from pixar all right i like much beloved so lion king and wally for my first two the iconic wally uh yes i all right so that that's back to me now that is correct
Starting point is 00:37:19 all right gotta play the strategy game here yes you, you do. Try to think what is Mike going to go with? I'm so tempted now to go cars as my flex. Based on the theme park. I lock up the Disneyland theme park in its entirety. The problem is I'm not sure that that's my favorite pixar movie uh left oh brother i'm tilting already all right i'm gonna take i'm gonna go dreamworks here all right because while i think there are three great options for dreamworks i mean just there's there's there's no wrong ways to go there i don't think i'm gonna take what you want andy i'm gonna take what i want it's awesome the movies were fantastic i love how to train your
Starting point is 00:38:11 dragon yeah i don't like that this has happened and so i will i almost took it over wally and i'm devastated i thought it would slip back through to me they're my favorite and it was not making it through four picks my man yeah they're my favorite animated movies of any of any series because because you're playing you're playing the guessing game i didn't realize you guys liked them so much can we restart honestly i was surprised that i i said i wasn't taking andy's but apparently i was you were absolutely that's my favorite uh they're great the last one too hidden world oh unbelievable all right so i am on this draft sucks i am up uh i have already taken my flex so i need to follow the rules of the draft right mike follow the rules let's see favorite thing to do so oh, and it's tough because you both could still take a Pixar movie for your flex.
Starting point is 00:39:08 I'm in a bit of a pickle over here. You know, having the flex in there, this is a good idea. It took us 117 episodes to figure the flex out, but it keeps us on our toes. Very nice, Al. You finally did something good. Hey, thanks. Oh, man. That was actually a really nice compliment you gave andy thank you my compliment i
Starting point is 00:39:28 wanted to be praised for it wasn't really about al no this is about you yeah all right i will i will start with my my first pick here i'm going to go into the dreamworks world i will take what i believe is the second best franchise from DreamWorks. There is another one that people are probably screaming for, but I know where you're going right now, Mike. I can fill it in for you. You might call it, but I will take Kung Fu Panda. It is a sensational round of movies.
Starting point is 00:40:00 The television show, even though it's not Jack Black, is actually still pretty solid. Yeah, it's absolutely watchable so i'm happy with that i would have been much happier had i gotten the how to train your dragon all right so i that's amazing we all love that the most because we're dudes and we like dragons yeah they were awesome the music is so good. The music in those movies is the best. All right. So I'm down to Disney. I'm down to Pixar. I feel like on Disney, there's at least five to ten that could easily be drafted here.
Starting point is 00:40:39 So I'm going to look over at Pixar. Toy Story would have been my top choice for if i was going to pixar are we gonna leave this draft without you taking a goofy movie i'm taking a pixar movie here my man all right because i know i could take goofy movies my last pick i just didn't i didn't know if you had pivoted off no no the polls were so oh no i'm decisive no look i'm look, I'm a man of my own heart, man of the people. I will do what I have to do. I'm going to take Coco here.
Starting point is 00:41:12 I don't know if it is actually my favorite Pixar movie, because when you're asked that question, it's a very difficult one to answer, but it's probably the one I've seen the most, and it's the one that I can still sit down and I'm like, oh, Coco, we should watch that. So what's your full roster
Starting point is 00:41:27 now? So far, I have Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse, Kung Fu Panda, and Coco. I knew Kung Fu Panda was 100% going to be your pick. Had to lock it in. And Coco, you've spoken highly of multiple times. It's fantastic. So this is a dream team for you, I would say.
Starting point is 00:41:43 We're doing alright right i would have i mean if if it was just like me picking one two three four it would be how to train your dragon and toy story but yeah yeah yeah i i am this i am building my dream team andy you you spoke too soon i am i have the 101 of all three categories i've got my 101 onon-one on Pixar Toy Story, my one-on-one on DreamWorks with How to Train Your Dragon. I'm going Disney with my one-on-one. It's Aladdin. Aladdin was the movie growing up. You know, that's... Alright.
Starting point is 00:42:13 My children have done the play. It's got a new remake. I love everything about Aladdin. It's in my list of three. I wouldn't put having a remake down as one of the top features of a movie, though. Well, I'm just saying it's modern.
Starting point is 00:42:30 They've remade a lot of movies. I'm just saying it has a remake, is what you said. It's modern, and it's a throwback. I cannot believe we have all fallen hook, line, and sinker to Disney. We're letting them get away with this. Yes. And i love it
Starting point is 00:42:46 man what do we do what if we just remake every movie that we have ever made that was successful and we will take the money made and multiply it by 30 and we're all like oh yeah i will sign me up i will be there the moment it comes out. Are you kidding me? And now there's just anticipation for the next one that they remake. They're all happening, man. Oh, yeah. Little Mermaid? Come on, man. Oh, is that happening?
Starting point is 00:43:14 Oh, yeah. That's right. Oh, gosh. All right. So, Jason, your team with your- My team is the 101 Toy Story, the 101 How to Train Your Dragon, and the 101 Aladdin. Okay. And right now I have Lion King and WALL-E
Starting point is 00:43:26 and I have to make my last two picks. So I have to choose a DreamWorks movie. Which means I have to... There is a giant that is out there, just so you know. Don't get it wrong. Well, Mike, I don't know what you're talking about. So I have to take...
Starting point is 00:43:42 I'm going to take my wild card with the third pick which is another pixar movie and now i'm starting to tilt yes yes to a movie um crap i'm going to take i'm going to take finding Nemo with the third pick. Okay. All right. So I think that that movie, just above the other one I was thinking about from Pixar, obviously there are a lot of them.
Starting point is 00:44:16 So I'm going to go Finding Nemo, and then I have to close it out with the DreamWorks. And my number one DreamWorks was How to Train Your Dragon. And my number two is Kung Fu Panda, which means my number three is, and was, especially the first movie, was outstanding, had the comedy that hits the kids and the adults. I see Mike grimacing, but I still enjoyed the movie quite a bit. So we're talking about Shrek. Yeah. So I don't know why you don't like it so much, Mike, but I don't care. I don't know, man. I went back, I just watched it again, and it was just, I don't know. It didn't stand the test of time
Starting point is 00:44:45 I liked it back when I was a kid It's because they don't have a live action remake isn't it It's probably Get Mike Myers in a giant green suit please Oh gosh The Broadway musical is fantastic Lion King, WALL-E, Finding Nemo and Shrek
Starting point is 00:45:01 Okay Oh man You have one more 101. You got to slide in here. There's not another 101. The 101 flex is not there for you. It is there. But the problem is there's too many great ones.
Starting point is 00:45:16 I was hoping you guys did better. So I don't have to choose between all these great movies and try to like. I mean, it's just not it's not fair to me um but man oh they're so good i can't believe these are undrafted um you're on your what are you i'm on my last i got my flex i could take any any movie i won't all right that's out there um because i'm not last i'm not gonna say these two movies that i can't believe aren't drafted right now, but I'm going to go with a movie Andy hasn't seen that blew Mike and I's mind
Starting point is 00:45:51 because it's one of the best animated movies of all time, even though I thought the actual animation was so stupid when it first came out, but now I love it. Despicable Me. It is phenomenal. Yeah, but now I love it. Despicable Me. It is phenomenal. I'm taking that over a couple of just giant brand powerhouses
Starting point is 00:46:12 because Despicable Me is just too good. Go watch it, Andy. I'm in on that. It deserves to be drafted. There's a lot of them. Alright, so my Disney one. I'm going to shock everybody here. By not taking a Disney movie.
Starting point is 00:46:29 I am taking my Disney pick, my final pick. I'm closing out my draft. A small little movie kind of came out to little fanfare. It has grown into a cult classic. I will take a goofy movie. Oh, I knew that was coming.
Starting point is 00:46:48 All right. All right. I feel like Mike genuinely drafted a roster of animated films here that he could watch these four in sequence forever, for all eternity. Yes, 100% I could.
Starting point is 00:47:04 And Jason, you've got a nice team. Yes, I do. I still, I mean, Despicable Me was your real weakness there because it never really demanded me to watch it. Like, obviously, had it been good enough, I would have seen it. You know what I mean? That's not DreamWorks, though. Is Illumination part of DreamWorks?
Starting point is 00:47:22 Or is that like their own thing? I do not know. like their own thing i do not my own thing i don't know the answer to that oh but the dream works movie andy you should have taken is captain underpants captain underpants it's a good my kids watched way too much of that yeah i have oh my my kids watched it enjoyed it too much so it was terrible no i just didn't i didn't it wasn't as refined as something like shrek i'm surprised i'm surprised that monsters inc didn't go in the toy story really was see up was the one i passed on when i passed on up for finding nemo that was a battle of the heart and then really what i was deciding between when it came to despicable meat is moana moana is yeah that was the one that it's my disney
Starting point is 00:48:06 was good would you take moana over mulan yes for sure yeah moana is if i hadn't taken goofy movie would have been a moana it's i could watch moana on repeat uh you know you don't perfect movie i don't it's a great movie i know you don't watch movies, Al, but is there any omissions that we should know about from your list? No. I don't think so. I don't know. I've never seen a movie. Okay.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Let's figure out what we learned today. What did we learn today? Oh, I know what I learned. What did you learn, Mike? I learned the difference between a jacket and a coat. Oh. $50. $50. $50.
Starting point is 00:48:48 I learned that you don't want to be your own butcher. It's very inconvenient. Lie, E.K. lie. I learned that one of the foundations to being a good movie is that there was a remake made of it later on. That is true. All right. That is it for this episode of the Spitballers podcast. Thank you for supporting the show.
Starting point is 00:49:08 Your reviews, they mean a lot to Jason in particular. So please keep them coming. See you later. Goodbye. Thanks for listening to the Spitballers podcast. To see what other nonsense the guys are up to, check out spitballerspod.com.
