Starting point is 00:00:00 Spitwads, we wish you a wonderful, happy Memorial Day. Enjoy this time with your friends and family. We are taking it with ours, and we have given you a classic spit hit in replacement. We'll be back next week with a brand new episode. 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. Scat-a-boo-bop-bee-bop-a-ding-a-shavoy-kin! Oh, yeah! Scoot-a-loo-lee-doo!
Starting point is 00:00:45 Is Shavoygan a city? Did you throw a city in there? There's no rule. No proper nouns allowed. It's a city whose name basically sounds like a scat, Jason. Yeah, Sheboygan. Do you know where Sheboygan is, Jason? I spelled that wrong in the Google machine, that's for sure look it's it's the
Starting point is 00:01:07 sound that it makes you guys remember moon shoes close it's michigan like when we were little they would sell these moon shoes that that had the springs on them how do you guys not know what moon shoes are they sold those i mean i always dreamed of having shoes with springs so i could this is a ridiculous situation that here I'm surrounded by buffoons. But yeah, they would sell moon shoes and you would bounce around them. Oh my gosh, those things look awesome. You would not bounce very high, but Sheboygan is in fact the sound that it would look. This joke would have crushed if I wasn't surrounded by idiots.
Starting point is 00:01:41 I didn't think that that made me an idiot. I'm not knowing about these moon shoes. Al Borland, were you familiar with moon shoes before this discussion? Yes, I was. Thank you. I feel like... Also, Sheboygan is in Wisconsin, not Michigan. See, I knew that because I'm on Google.
Starting point is 00:01:57 I'm looking. Are they really different? Sheboygan is a city in the U.S. state of Michigan, according to the Sheboygan I looked up. Sheboygan is a city in and the county seat of Sheboygan County, Wisconsin. So there's two of them? There can never be enough Sheboygan. Is this a Springfield situation?
Starting point is 00:02:13 Everyone's got a Sheboygan? Well, maybe there's more than one. Sheboygan, California! You know, there's only one Sheboygan, Michigan on Wikipedia that I'm looking at.'m who was the real that's okay wait so which one the wikipedia i will try not to include cities in the back half of my scat i didn't know it would be so controversial i didn't know it would lead into a weird moon shoes
Starting point is 00:02:33 all right maybe i won't maybe mike is proven it's good that it works okay uh welcome to the podcast there's good words out there. Sacramento is not bad. You just need syllables. The more syllables that you have in a city's name, the better. So give it a shot next week, Mike. You're on. All cities?
Starting point is 00:02:57 You're on for next week. Okay. All cities? You're saying that's your whole scat? That's the battle plan. And the best part of it is, at the time of this recording, we can all cities you're saying that's your whole scat that'll that's the battle plan and the best part of it is at the time of this recording i will remember this discussion five seconds before the scat starts yes that's and then it will go and it'll go phoenix dallas
Starting point is 00:03:17 tallahassee it'll be it'll be very it'll be great we have a great show for you today liar liar coming back on today's show one of our favorite segments i am would you rather i'm officially declaring that i will lose today because every other time i'm so positive i'm gonna win so no chance today that's excellent because i declare that jason will lose yeah i do too pile on andy thank you at spitballersPod on Twitter, SpitballersPod.com. If you want to go become an official Spitwad supporter of the show,
Starting point is 00:03:50 submit your ideas for drafts and your would-you-rather questions, we look to the Spitwads first for those insights to inform this highly sophisticated hour of podcasting. It's like the captain of the ship is like, hey, where do you guys want to go?
Starting point is 00:04:09 Yeah, pretty much. And then the number one, the number one officer. And they're like, we want to go to Sheboygan. Yeah. They're like, all right, we'll take you to Sheboygan. We know where our first live stream is going to be. Our first live show will be in Sheboygan, but two of us will be in one Sheboygan
Starting point is 00:04:22 and one will be in the other Sheboygan. It turns out there is a Sheboygan, like S-H-E-boygan, but two of us will be in one Sheboygan and one will be in the other Sheboygan. It turns out there is a Sheboygan, like S-H-E Boygan, and there's a Sheboygan C-H-E Boygan. One's in Michigan, one's in Wisconsin. Clearly they probably fought at one point in time. Over vowels? Yeah, over
Starting point is 00:04:37 the Boygan. You know? Her Boygan. The battle of Boygan. The battle of the Boygan's. All right, let's do some. Would you rather? Would you rather? All right.
Starting point is 00:04:55 This question comes in from Bruce. By the way, we have a great draft on today's show as well. This is the second half of, uh, an earlier draft. So look forward to that. the second half of uh an earlier draft so look forward to that do you guys hear the word bruce and then just automatically fill in almighty almighty oh really yeah yeah i mean look i grew up on some jim carrey and while it wasn't the best movie it still was a movie so i thought you would go bruce wayne when i hear bruce that's what i think oh no i go right to bruce almighty it's just like like kids named jake sorry man you're from state you're from state
Starting point is 00:05:31 farm oh my gosh ridiculous well this bruce from state farm says uh would you rather own the physical copy of a video game or the digital download of a video game this seems like a very practical question yes is trying to decide i guess what to do here i wonder if it's generational though too uh yeah generational and i would like to pose this question as a as a different way because it's in the would you rather we got to be fair to bruce we'll answer that. Would you rather have this or that? But this is life advice that I myself need at this time. So, I mean, who else? Bruce is here for you in a way. Well, I don't want to hear Bruce's advice.
Starting point is 00:06:15 I want to hear the advice of you two guys. We consider ourselves. Did you call us a dad spurt? No, but that works, too. We're the dad-sperts. But I said experts. We sit on three pillars, very elevated, and very studious, very all-knowing people. By the way, I have not gotten my honorary doctorate for this show despite going over 100 episodes.
Starting point is 00:06:39 It's ridiculous. Some school needs to reach out. Some school needs to reach out. We know where it's coming from. It's coming from Sheboygan. It's from Sheboygan. Sheboygan University. Sheboygan Community College.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Reach out to us, Sheboygan. Do they give out doctorates there? All right. Sorry, Mike. What is your dilemma in your situation? As I have been trapped in my home, I've been trying to improve this room. This is my office, if you check it out on the YouTube. It does seem a little cleaner than it used to.
Starting point is 00:07:07 And you'll notice it is a bit cleaner because I've been trying to make improvements my man. And involved in those improvements in my closet is a video game collection that is very extensive. Those who collect video games may in fact be
Starting point is 00:07:23 envious of what is happening in my closet. Can I ask you a quick question about your collection? Yes, you may. Is a video game collection considered illustrious by volume or by titles? As in, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:07:39 That's a good question. It is definitely a combination of both. You need to have the volume just to get a foot in the club. Just to make it a collection? Yeah. Okay. Like if you have two rare titles, you don't really say you have a collection. You don't have a collection, but you have two rare titles.
Starting point is 00:07:57 But while I have a very voluminous collection, I also have some titles in there that are seemingly rare. I don't even know how those things happen in today's age where a video game somehow becomes rare. But as I'm going through them, and I'm very proud of this, it's tied to who I am.
Starting point is 00:08:19 It's my childhood. It's my childhood in boxes. Yeah, it's nostalgic too, yeah. And just looking at the games, you're like, oh, man, I can go back and I can put myself in very specific circumstances of, oh, this friend was at my house and we beat this game and it was 2 in the morning and we went out and we got Del Taco and we felt like that's how strong the memories are on here.
Starting point is 00:08:44 But these things sit in my closet and i go i will never play these again because you know that reality is there that you want yes i've hit the age where i know the reality is i will never play 99 of these games again even though with all the new systems now they're like oh we're backwards compatible i'm like like great i'm not playing the backwards games you're giving me so old i bring this to the council of like what do i do with this collection because for the regular person it's just a whole crap ton of video games but that's not all it is for me. Is there a monetary value?
Starting point is 00:09:28 I'm sure there is. Could you unload those and make a pretty penny? I'm sure I could make money not a pretty penny. This isn't like I have a Jordan rookie card in mint condition. I don't think that video games were ever sold in a way like sports
Starting point is 00:09:44 cards where the rare ones are truly rare because they were both sought after and limited quantity. No video game company is designing a game and then being like, I'm going to let five people get their hands on this product. Those do exist, though.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Yeah, Super NES and NES games have tremendous original value. Yeah, but mostly if they are in a box like if you have a laminated box correct unopened of something then then it's multiple thousands of dollars if it's just the cartridge they're like oh here's two bucks yes okay well let me ask you this is it possible you know we have our our grandparents retired and they did their like i feel like my grandparents sat around and watched the news a lot. And their retirement was whittled.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Maybe, I don't know what else they did, to be honest with you. Rocked. Rocked a lot of rocking. Is there a chance that you might retire and play these one day? Because we always joke about you kind of leave the world like you came into it. I think Seinfeld makes that joke about wearing diapers and being taken care of and is it possible that because of the simplicity of these old games you'll return to the simplicity of those old games in your retirement i will say it is definitely possible the problem is they have added to the collector's items where they have those nintendo
Starting point is 00:11:01 minis and super nintendo minis that have the best of the games. They have all those games already. And it's just right there. I have those, but I also have the real game. The answer to the question here, to bring it back to the beginning, is so clearly and obviously digital to me. It's not even remotely close. Because here's the thing. Let's say in your old age, 20, 30 years from now, you do want to play it.
Starting point is 00:11:26 That don't work. That disc is not going to work. The system is not going to work. The digital download is like, it's there. And you want to know what else you can do for nostalgia. If you're not after this for money, if you're like, man, I want to remember. I don't know. Scroll through your library.
Starting point is 00:11:39 You still have the pictures of like, oh, yeah, that game and that game. I remember that. You're hanging up. I see your office. If you're on YouTube, you can see it. I would take your favorite like 20 games and I'd frame them up. If you're not going to sell them and they bring you a feeling when you see them, frame them up, hang them on the wall, and then you see them and you're like,
Starting point is 00:12:02 man, I remember that Del Taco diarrhea I had way back when when i beat that game so yeah i lose games and then i cause games to no longer work at such a high degree that digital is like oh i can't lose it foolproof i can't you hold this for me exactly no i'm digital for sure back to Bruce, I have reached the point in my life where I'm on, the position on either the couch or the bed, I'm locked in. I actually have, I have slight body impression on this couch. It knows this is where I need to be. If I have to get up to change a game because I need to put the physical copy in, what are we in the 90s?
Starting point is 00:12:48 That's going to be hard when you're in the 90s too. No, I go, boop, next game. Thank you very much. All right. Tim from the website, would you rather be able to tell your past self one thing or be able to ask your future self one question? That is very interesting. So, you know, what would you use the past self knowledge for?
Starting point is 00:13:14 Like that would be correcting a huge mistake. You could tell your, avoid this, do this. Obviously, I will head it off before you speak. You could go tell your past self to invest in amazon right before i don't want to go the route i don't want to go the route of the money what i want to ask is this question okay imagine that you are the future self you're lit you're just right now we're recording this podcast all of a sudden there's you from 10 years ago you weren't expecting it and they come over and they start what would you say well just hold And they come over and they start. Oh, what would you say?
Starting point is 00:13:45 Just hold it. They come over, they start talking to you. And like, oh man, hey, future Mike, please tell me something. But then I start thinking about the rules of time travel. If I change anything in this old person, the old version of me, if i change anything of my past i disappear from the photograph back to the future style because think of all the butterfly effects that one
Starting point is 00:14:15 simple change is like hey don't go to the store on on octoberrd. You'll thank me later. And then all of a sudden, I vanish, and I'm gone, because my reality doesn't exist anymore. Does that mean you have to... Do you just go away, or do you then go back and relive all those moments? I don't think you go away. I thought that created an alternate timeline that you could still be living in this timeline,
Starting point is 00:14:44 but then there would be an alternate timeline. But then that wouldn't fix anything for me, so screw that guy. No, you're right. Yeah, that's a real good point, Mike. You can eat an old self. So it's got to be telling the future. And here's the thing about learning from the future is it's a twofer, okay? You go back, you get to tell yourself something.
Starting point is 00:15:00 You get one thing, right? This question says one thing. If I get to find out something, one thing right this question says one thing if i get to find out something one thing from the future self this is a two for one because you want to know what else i i find out how old do i look okay all right that's an old man so i can find out one i can ask a question but i also know i'm at least into my 70s you know what i mean oh i thought you were saying you know you need to go to the botox and get the facelift yeah i mean it could be that you're learning a lot of things there's a three for a four for one you're like oh man i didn't get on that diet plan jason what happens if you
Starting point is 00:15:34 go to the future in four years and it's you you're greeted with your tombstone well then i learned i guess that just answers asked that yes that's that's called the ultimate exercise and diet plan that is 100 if i go like 40 years into the future and i see the tombstone i'm like well i got all the information i needed i am going for a jog honey make a smoothie but but until i do that i will not be going for a jog right nothing because i assume i you know look he has no assumption that he will die at some point i'm gonna live forever nothing short of time traveling to see me in 40 years but i mean you know you gather more information than just the one you think finding out you're 38 years old yeah so you just said 40 years in
Starting point is 00:16:25 the future you think finding out that you die by your 88th birthday will motivate you to jog now no but if i get there and you know by the 78th birthday 78th birthday i'm still alive mathematics all right okay yeah i see that i'm like fantastic i'm good same same path i'm going skydiving keep on keeping on yeah well i am not surprised that we trickled them into alternate realities here um string theory look into some of those away is there a is there one that you just prefer is there one that you just say like you'd rather give yourself a lesson or you'd rather find out about the future just in general? I believe outside of going back and doing the whole betting thing, which is, you know, overplayed, I think learning from the future would be cooler. Like, I am more curious.
Starting point is 00:17:18 I don't look at my past and think to myself, oh, man, I should not have married my wife. You know what I mean? Like, I got to go back and give the warning. I love my wife. I'm happy with my family and where I'm at. So I don't like have some inherent, I need to go back and fix this one major mistake. In which case I am far more attracted towards the future to see. I'm just so curious where things go and how things look and you know, how fat am I and things like that. So, uh, I'm, I'm just so curious where things go and how things look and how fat am I and things like that. So I'm definitely on the future side. I'm with Jason.
Starting point is 00:17:50 I'm going to the future because what I believe of possible time travel is if I go back, either I vanish or nothing has changed for me. So it does me no good. I've just changed the reality for some other version of myself. All right. Let's go through these ones really quickly. What's your answer, Andy? I think I'm with you guys. I think I don't have any... I'm blessed to not have any kind of monumental regret that I need to edit undo. There are certainly things that all of us have that we were like, man, I wish that I had known 10 years ago. I think about family members that have passed since then.
Starting point is 00:18:31 And I'm like, I wish I had taken more advantage of time with them or things like that. All of us could just go to 2021 and be like, we good? Are we good? Okay, thanks. That will make things a lot better for me. It's where you go and you try to ask your future self something and there's nobody. You go to 2022. I know it. I know it. There's nobody there to ask all right real quick taters mcgee uh here's the game pick two one is gone forever okay all right cheeses meats breads delicious
Starting point is 00:18:58 pick two one is gone forever cheese is gone i love cheese love cheese. I love meat. I love bread. Oh, it's... Okay, I was reading this question very wrong. I was reading two of the three entire categories. So we're going... So cheese, meat, breads, I got to get rid of one? It's possible you interpreted the question the right way. I don't know. I was going quick list here.
Starting point is 00:19:23 So cheese, meats, and breads. I would keep cheese i would keep meat i guess and i'd go i'd have to let bread go man i would be so i had five slices of cheese for lunch today so that that answers that question wait like just five slices of cheese no not just five no not just but listen listen I've been telling my wife how much I love white American cheese. If you go to your local grocer, white American cheese. I love it so much that I wanted to see if I wouldn't love it after eating so many slices in a row. And I didn't love it as much after the fifth slice.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Oh, all right. Yeah, it's understandable. So it did wear out a little bit. But through three to four slices, it was perfect. Mike, I will get rid of. You've been Mr. Keto in the past. Yeah, I've survived in a world for multiple years without bread, so I will get rid of bread. Movies, music, books.
Starting point is 00:20:21 Oh, great. See you later, books. Oh, great. See you later, books. Oh, no. I mean, look, if there's no music, there's no score in my movies, and movies is really the thing I need the most. Yeah, as if books haven't played any part in your movie, in movies being created. Look, I will miss the Harry Potter series,
Starting point is 00:20:44 but I'm sure there's a lot of original uh i'll ditch the movies i don't watch enough movies i'll go music and books i watch movies all the time and how do you ditch music mike it's you i don't know i don't know how i ditch music that with where i'm stuck is just what have i done to the world if I read your responsibility here yeah I feel it man heavy as the head like if movies have turned into the only way that we can learn about history we will be dumb are in trouble we are in trouble because we've been doing that I thought this was just for ourself oh it's just broke oh Jason if this was just for ourself. Oh, it's just for... Oh, Jason. If it's just for ourself.
Starting point is 00:21:27 You have lifted a burden up off of me because then the books can hit the brakes. I would not take books away from history. All right. Appetizers, main courses, and desserts. I think I've got to ditch main courses here. I love appetizers and desserts. They're the best. My oh goodness i like i you guys were back with me in the broken bowl days right we'd go to lunch and i would rather
Starting point is 00:21:55 get 12 items that i ate a couple bites of each than like my favorite thing that i consume in its entirety so a meal of appetizers like if i go to the cheesecake factory half like i'm usually getting like three appetizers no meal but it's it's fun sometimes it's fun to eat breakfast for dinner sometimes right you're stuck in appetizer ville man just yeah i mean jason's not stuck there though because i've been around this man for so many years he likes a plurality of options to eat so he he's not stuck he will just eat quantities that make it a main course for his belly that's what i'm talking about your options uh i have to the one that i can live without is desserts yeah i can't lose desserts bro i i get it i can't i honestly i i i recognize appetizers for me i recognize this about my life that i i feel like a
Starting point is 00:22:54 a lone man i'm i'm tom hanks on this island of of i'm fine without desserts i like them but i would much rather load up on the appetizers and the main course and then just be too full for dessert. All right. Fair enough. Fair enough. Let's move on. Spatwads, here's a little gift-giving wisdom from Omaha Steaks.

All right, we've already determined that Jason will fail spectacularly on today's show. We are playing another game of Liar, Liar.
Starting point is 00:24:51 There are two truths. There is one lie. Mike and I are going to defeat. I don't care about you guys defeating me. I care about Al. No, we're going to defeat Al. You're not. You're going to fail.
Starting point is 00:25:00 You guys defeated me. I care about Al. No, we're going to defeat Al. You're not. You're going to fail. I just spotted note number two in round one. I haven't seen them yet. Good luck reading through that. All right, here we go.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Oh, my goodness. Don't read it. Just read it like you're reading for the first time. This is a speech you've seen for the first time. I'm going to read three facts. One of them is not a fact. We have determine it defeat al borland number one flowers broadcast a variable static electricity signal that tells a bee whether the flower has already been emptied by its co-worker look the verbiage is kind of gross but okay okay. All right. Number two, a sloth's nipples are in their armpits.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Oh, mercy. If you thought regular breastfeeding was awkward in public, maybe. I don't know. This one would be worse. The smell. Yeah, the smell. Do you deodorize? Do you need a lot of deodorant in that situation if i had to
Starting point is 00:26:06 breastfeed a child with a nipple from my armpit are not good the child would refuse would refuse all sustenance all right third one algebra was named after the creator and father of algebra, Muhammad Algebra. Algebra. Come on. That's got to be. Come on. So when you're reading this. Muhammad Algebra? Come on.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Every time I say it, it seems stupid. I believe the sloths one because animals are, there's so many of them. I mean, at least one of them has got to have a nipple. And also, sloths are so weird. Like, they're one of the weirdest creations. Now, you're really into them, right? My daughter loves sloths.
Starting point is 00:26:54 They're very, very cute. They're very cute. But here's the question. How have sloths survived natural predators in the wild? I don't think anything thinks it's a thing you know what i mean like it moves so slow they're just like i i'm looking for an animal that's not an animal that's part of a tree that's already dead they think it's already dead exactly well they would probably eat a dead animal that's true to be nipples. When you first started reading, flowers broadcast a variable static electricity signal,
Starting point is 00:27:30 I knew it was the lie. I knew it was because of variable static electricity. That's trying too hard. But goodness gracious, the algebra at the end is so bad. It's so bad. You know what? Or is it so good? Or is it so good? Or is it so good?
Starting point is 00:27:46 Oh, no. I was just tempted to Google it because I wanted to know the answer. I forgot the game for a second. I was like, I need to Google that. That seems like a lie. This is tough, Mike, because if we all go with the one that's jumping out at us and we're wrong, this game is over. I mean, we've already lost. Well, not necessarily because there's two more.
Starting point is 00:28:04 If we go two and one against. That'd be better than normal. I mean, we've already lost that. Well, not necessarily, because there's two more. If we go two and one against... Yeah, it'd be better than normal. I'm going with my gut. I'm going with the variable static electricity is just too verbose. He's trying too hard. I already said I was going to lose. I think he's got me hook, line, and center here. All right, Andy, walk me through your
Starting point is 00:28:19 three, and then I will comment. Well, what? Where I'm thinking? Yeah. I think the sloth's nipples are in the armpits for sure. So I'm deciding between the other two. Okay. And I just cannot accept that the father of algebra
Starting point is 00:28:33 is Muhammad Al-Jabra. So I'm going to call that one the lie. My thought is that... I thought the first one was a lie too. I don't think a bee gets told that it's emptied by a co-worker. I mean, what kind of language is this? So I'm going to say the algebra one, though, is the lie.
Starting point is 00:28:51 I just can't live with that. Yeah, it's got to be the algebra. Are you changing? I believe that that's the lie. Those of you at home, spitwads, I hope you're playing along and see if you can beat Al. Jason, what are you doing? I have to change because it's not the math one.
Starting point is 00:29:13 It's not algebra. We're not locked in. It's not algebra. It's clearly not algebra. Al-gebra. Mike, what are you doing? Here's my thought process. I actually feel pretty good that the flowers one is true.
Starting point is 00:29:26 The world of insects and animals is very bizarre. They work through chemical scents. I imagine that they work through variable static electricity. Yeah. And the algebra one is just like, it's got to. All right, make your comment. Okay, sloths, nipples in their armpits. It seems so dumb.
Starting point is 00:29:50 That's it. I'm locking in sloths. Oh, all right. Al? Andy and Jason are correct on this one. Yes. Okay. What a pivot.
Starting point is 00:30:00 All right. That's just good for the world. It just seems like the weirdest. His name is actually muhammad al-khwizarimi but that's so but everything else is true yeah all right see that makes so much more sense because if his name was al-jabra i don't think you would name it like algebra that felt very much like a a joke from like space balls like a that's a mel brooks joke there you go i felt like that one might be a layup that's why it's from the round one yeah and but here here's
Starting point is 00:30:34 i'll make an excuse now no no no setting us up for failure is you have done so well in the past that i was scared from the layup i I thought you would be LeBron James just letting me coast up for a nice layup and then you sneak up behind me and just block-a-mole. Yeah. Block-a-mole. That's a good... That is a good word.
Starting point is 00:30:57 That is not bad. Alright, round two. You guys ready? Ready. In 2018, approximately 8% of college applicants for architecture courses in the u.s used submissions of what they had built in minecraft as part of their portfolio okay i think that's low low percentage uh i think that's true according to section 182 of the Alabama state constitution, idiots are not allowed to vote. I mean, I think that's true as well.
Starting point is 00:31:30 That can't be that. Isn't that, wouldn't that be unconstitutional? Not if they defined an idiot as something else long ago. Oh man. That's my thought. Okay. And number three,
Starting point is 00:31:41 a pizza that has a radius of a radius z and a height a has volume of pi times z yeah pi times z times z times a no way wait so you're going are we just going to be asked math questions and see if we can figure out the math. Curse you! A pizza that has a radius, z, and a height, a, has a volume of pi times z times z times a. So it spells out pizza. Yeah, so that's... But that would mean it has what?
Starting point is 00:32:16 Two radius, two radii? That's a volume. Which makes sense, I guess. Wait, two radius is one diameter right yeah but but it would be z plus z to equal one diameter not times right you're going radius times right i can't get into the pizza we get an olna that was a bone that was a bone joke. Thank you, everybody. Good night. It was a huge hit there, Mike. A skeletal system walk-off. Because of a radius.
Starting point is 00:32:51 All right. The Minecraft one is absolutely true, right? I think so. Unless it's higher. Unless, like Mike said, it's like 25%. We've agreed that Al Borland does not do that. I was just making the joke that i think that's real because mine the things you can do in minecraft are so insane so all right we got we got a pick i mean alabama doesn't let idiots vote okay okay that's unconstitutional i i mean i
Starting point is 00:33:22 cannot believe that at this point in time, Alabama, if it has something that... Alabama, man! I mean, I would like to believe. It's not so much that I can't believe, but I would like to believe. Do they have a Sheboygan in Alabama? Of course they do, Andy. Of course they do. I'm locking in the pizza one is the lie.
Starting point is 00:33:42 I think the pizza one is absolutely true. I'm not worried about that one at all. It's the Alabama idiots not allowed to vote in the Constitution. There's no way that that can be true. So it's Mike's chance here. So I will say, unfortunately, it seems like there's not a Sheboygan, Alabama. However, there is an Alabama Avenue in Sheboygan. Good enough.
Starting point is 00:34:04 And so facto. What are we doing now? You got to choose. We aren't doing anything. We've locked in our votes. I was looking up Sheboygan stats. Where are you guys locked in? I am locked in on the pizza one being a lie. The radius, the pizza math equation. And Jason's locking in
Starting point is 00:34:19 Alabama as unconstitutional and a lie. That's correct. That idiots can't vote. I feel like I am revealing thoughts of Alabama by not voting for that. Right. I mean, we should all be voting for that one thing. I won't be voting for that one. I mean, I'm in on the pizza one with Andy.
Starting point is 00:34:41 All right. All right, Al. Lock it in. Back to back math wise. Owl. You're all wrong on this one with Andy. All right, Al. Lock it in. Back-to-back math-wise, Al? You're all wrong on this one. No! What? No way!
Starting point is 00:34:52 He got a new... That's with Minecraft, man. Alabama Constitution reads that all idiots and insane persons and those convicted of a crime, etc., etc. So, yeah, I think it's just old verbiage. Unbelievable. And the pizza one was true too. Pi times Z times Z times A? Yeah, the formula for volume is
Starting point is 00:35:10 something like pi times radius squared times height. Oh, radius squared. So there's the Z times Z. And so you just build it out. What's a nerd joke? Give me the real stat on the Minecraft thing. Is that actually used at all? I don't think so. I got that from
Starting point is 00:35:25 sometimes i uh i search reddit for like the son of a gun uh the ask reddit forum and somebody was asking on there if they should use their minecraft creations uh as part of their portfolio so oh that is a good that's you got us this time but here's the deal here's the deal you we say you you got us but we're basically one and one here that's's how I feel. So this round three is going to make it. In the game of one versus three, it's tied. That's right. Thank you, Mike. Last round.
Starting point is 00:35:53 A lot of math around here. Hopefully some of you at home are defeating Ella here. Round three, number one. Oh, good. More Betty White. Betty White is older than the lie detector machine and Band-Aids. So that's number one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:08 Despite being orange, green, yellow, blue, red, and purple, all Froot Loops are identically flavored. Mike, I know you eat a lot of Froot Loops. Don't they smell good? You should know the answer. I'm going to trust you on that. Froot Loops just smell really good. All right.
Starting point is 00:36:23 Number three. Until 1937, it was illegal for men to be shirtless on American beaches. That sounds about right. That sounds absolutely right. That was tank life. Yeah, I still feel like it, you know, when I take my shirt off on a beach, I feel like I'm doing something illegal. It's illegal?
Starting point is 00:36:40 Yes, I am breaking the law. Maybe not all men are, but I am breaking the law. Citizens arrest. I mean, I've certainly embraced the short, short trunk life, and it's very liberating for fellas out there. Look, we lived the long trunk life. Yeah, that was a long time we did that. Get rid of it, man.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Short trunk life is absolutely the way to be. Skies out, thighsives out get with it having said that i think it would be pretty sweet if i had one of those the old school like muscle man oh yeah like the tank swimsuit that's a full pants yeah like that thing will be legit if you saw a guy strolling down the beach in one of those you go now that that's a man that's a man. That's a man right there. I'm sure you can find it.
Starting point is 00:37:30 You don't need the laws to go back to 1937. I believe that the lie here is the Fruit Loop one. I don't want to believe that every... These are Fruit Loops. It's supposed to be a plurality of fruits that I am eating. I don't want to just be eating generic fruit flavor for all things. I will not accept that. I am locking in that Fruit Loops are not all identically flavored. Excellent. Jason, this is where I tell you that I'm 100% sure that that one is true. Dang it. Oh, see, I knew. 100%?
Starting point is 00:37:59 Oh, you've locked it in. You said locked in. 100%? Look, I know how much Mike much i'll dip that to 90 something percent okay i'll stick with it i'll stick with it because i think it was probably illegal to be shirtless on american beaches in 1937 yeah and uh betty white i mean we give her so much respect on this show very old but how old are band-aids so here's the thing with this i would i was going to say betty white is the lie because there's all those things that, you know, when you talk about the age of people that are really surprising, you know, and I think we expect Betty White to be older than those things. And the lie would be surprising if, like, the lie detector machine was created 150 years ago. There could be a version of it.
Starting point is 00:38:43 I would go that way. However, I know how much like Fruit Loops, when Carl's Jr. came out with Fruit Loop Donuts, Mike, you were in line. And I'm going to be honest with you. I remember tasting different flavors in those Fruit Loop Donuts. I do. Crap. But. I did go very hard to be sure.
Starting point is 00:39:03 That was the donuts. You did go with 100%. I said I was going to trust you here. So I'm hard to be sure. That was the donut. It's 100%. I said I was going to trust you here. So I'm going to trust Mike. Are you sticking with it? He's having doubts. I can see it. He's having a little bit of doubt.
Starting point is 00:39:13 Is it 90% now? Is it just draining? No, no. I told you it was 95%. Here's what I know. I know for sure that one of the fruit flavored cereals, they're all exactly the same flavor. I know without a doubt that that is true. But you don't know if it's tricks.
Starting point is 00:39:31 Like, is it trick? Yeah. Is it tricks? Is it fruity pebbles? But I'm sticking with 90. We're going to drop it to 90%. Yeah. I know for sure that the yellow was lemon on that donut.
Starting point is 00:39:44 I am so positive. But you're talking about donuts. You're not talking about the cereal. Yeah. So what are you guys going to go with? Betty White is older than the lie detector. Locked in for me. Wait a minute.
Starting point is 00:39:55 Oh, you're saying that. He's saying that's the lie, that Betty White is not older than the lie detector or Band-Aids. Oh, I thought what you were 100% sure on was that the was that the fruit loops on was a lie no i'm i'm with you i think betty white older than lie detector no the lie detector is going to shock us how old it is and that could be true in that one all right let us know all right you guys all went one and two today so mike and jason got that one right. Yes. Yeah. Which means we collectively beat you. No. No, no.
Starting point is 00:40:27 Wait, no. Oh, wait. We all got one. Jason got two of them right. Jason moved at the last second to algebra. I was algebra and Betty White for the win. Oh, you're right. My reverse psychology this episode has paid off.
Starting point is 00:40:42 Those were tough again, Al. Well done. You are so good at these. Yeah, we hate you. It is by far my favorite thing we do because I learn so much. Yeah, the turtles? Unbelievable. Yeah, and the sloth's armpit thing.
Starting point is 00:40:56 That's big time. All right, let's do some. That's big time. That's big time. Let's do some drafting. That's big time. That's big time. Let's do some drafting.

Starting point is 00:42:34 decided to separate them because there's so many actors and actresses to choose from and you only get to put four up on mount rushmore so we uh we separated them I have the first pick and I can tell you I am tilting um look and and here's the thing I'm mount when you say something is a Mount Rushmore it's it generally carries a certain weight of like you're saying these are historical yes greatest of all time and Iconic, memorable. But the way that we are treating this is it's our personal Mount Rushmore. At least that's the way I'm- With the same qualifiers though, right?
Starting point is 00:43:15 It's not just- We are still saying iconic and memorable, but it's in our minds what it is. This is what we did with the actors. I'm just telling people of like, there will be modern day actresses on here. We're not just going, well, this lady, she's been a leading lady since the 1940s. Barbara Stanwyck was one of my favorites. No, this is our Rushmore. These are our favorite actresses.
Starting point is 00:43:40 And now, again, to be clear, this is only actresses born in or around Sheboygan, Michigan, or Wisconsin. Of course. So Barbara Stanwyck, unfortunately, no. So the thing is, I didn't live during the time of the presidents on Mount Rushmore, right? Historically, I'm able to look at what they did or accomplished and understand why they are up there. Sure. So for my first pick, while I may not be a consumer of every one of the 21 Academy Award nominations of this iconic actress. That's a lot. In fact, very few of them.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Get it out of the way. Four wins, 21 nominations. I'm going to select what I think is the bona fide 101 in this category. Again, recognition. Sure. Meryl Streep. All right. I'm taking Meryl Streep. That is great.
Starting point is 00:44:39 21 nominations. Oh, man. And I didn't know if either of you would take her. You knew I wouldn't. We jason wouldn't i wouldn't a problem with meryl street i don't wanna like what are you what do you like top top five just real quick top five meryl street movies yes thank you mike i'll tell you it's not into the woods i was gonna go through the nominations and ask you if you've seen any of them let's do it that's a great that's why i gave the preface before this started.
Starting point is 00:45:07 I understand that Meryl Streep is regarded as one of the best actresses of all time, but me watching Meryl Streep movies is... This is why I said the whole giant thing about me not living during the president's era. All right. No, it's good. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:45:22 It's a 21 Academy Award nominations. That's not even like all the others. I know she dominates. I get it. Let me just ask you real quick. I'm going to go through them real fast. If you've seen it, I want you to say something because that'll make it easier, right? Excellent.
Starting point is 00:45:33 There's 21 of them. The Deer Hunter. No. Kramer versus Kramer. No. No. The French Lieutenant's Woman. No.
Starting point is 00:45:39 No. Sophie's Choice. No. Did you see that? No, but I know of it very much. Silkwood. No. What? Out of Africa. No. No. I've seen that? No, but I know of it very much. Silkwood. No. Out of Africa.
Starting point is 00:45:48 No. No. I've seen that. All right. Ironwood. No. No. Or ironweeds. No, I haven't seen that one either.
Starting point is 00:45:54 All right. Don't even say no. Just interrupt me if you've seen it. A Cry in the Dark, Postcards from the Edge, The Bridges of Madison County, One True Thing, Music of the heart adaptation i saw that the devil wears prada doubt julia julian julia the iron lady into the woods august yes i've seen the woods and she was horrific in that oh come on she was no no no no watch and anyone out there she is great jason no no she is great
Starting point is 00:46:26 for his whole life here's a here's the thing i have always said she i i am so i think she is so overrated because she is rated number one by any and all lists she's and i think that doesn't match but to be fair i haven't seen all those movies the movies i have seen if you go watch something like into the woods it's a musical where she's in it. She's the witch. You come back to me and tell me that, man, she knocked that one out of the park. You can't do it with a straight face. She's terrible in that movie.
Starting point is 00:46:55 I love Russell Crowe. But if you were judging Russell Crowe based on Lame as Rob, you would go, he's not very good. 100% the same because it's a musical. It's like, this is not the wheelhouse. But here's the thing. That's not the same because it's a musical it's like this is not the wheelhouse but here's the thing that's not the only musical she's done and she's been his hardest to collapse that he's tried so hard but but in fairness andy what was the show we just watched that hbo show uh uh the the you're so close to it which Which one? Little Fires. Pretty Little Liars. Yeah, Little Fires everywhere. Little Liars. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:28 She was unbelievable in that. That's the Amazon movie. She was unbelievable in that. Oh, okay. So, I mean, she can't act. I just have never seen her do it. Anyway, Meryl Streep's my number one pick. She's going to end my Mount Rushmore. All right.
Starting point is 00:47:37 She was going to get picked at one point or the other. I just didn't want to have a disingenuous pick of Meryl Streep on my list. But I do. Hey, that's fine. Look, it's not that I don't understand how amazing she is. Her movies are just before my time. Just before my time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:56 And to a different. Al is trying to tell us about it. Big Little Lies was the HBO show. Little Fires Everywhere is the Amazon show. But Meryl Streep's on Big Little Lies. And Pretty Little Liars is... Why is everything something... That's a teenage girl show.
Starting point is 00:48:08 How about this? Come up with an original title so you don't sound like everybody else's show. Ridiculous. Keeping watching the night. I don't know the reference and I'm sad. Keeping watching the night. What is this from? I was just doing my Russell Crowe impression.
Starting point is 00:48:21 Keeping watching the night. What is this from? I was just doing my Russell Crowe impression. Two, four, six, oh, one. All right. All right. Let's not let Russell Crowe ruin this like he almost ruined that movie. That's a great point. So now the game begins.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Yeah, I would say so. I have hopes of some actresses making it back to me, but we'll see where you guys lie. So, oh, man. hopes of some actresses making it back to me but we'll see where you guys lie so oh man now i'm tilted because because i felt like i wasn't going to have like every single pick available to me so i will start so you get your one-on-one here because i do if streep wasn't your one-on-one really struggling with the old one-on-one i look i am and look i i mean i guess i was just doing the old double check but i i know who the the one-on-one my my favorite actress is because i think she's she is fantastic always gives a great performance. I mean, look, the beginning was a little bit rough.
Starting point is 00:49:27 Let's be fair. But I'm going with Natalie Portman. Oh, no! Dang it! Ding, ding, ding it. I was so good. Jason just knocked his green screen over. I knocked down Jason's Mel Rushmore.
Starting point is 00:49:39 Wow. Yes, you have. But Garden State, V for Vendetta, Annihilation. She's so up and down. That's my problem with Natalie Portman. She's had some real curse stinkers. It was down because the Star Wars prequels, they're not the best. But she did nothing wrong in those.
Starting point is 00:49:58 Garden State's a great movie. Did you just say Natalie Portman did nothing wrong in those? 100%. You just blame the writer. I have a note. This is a complete sidebar. Because in case you're curious, it's awful. This is a complete sidebar, and I apologize for derailing this,
Starting point is 00:50:12 for highlighting these amazing actresses. Dang it. I wanted Natalie Portman. I want to talk Star Wars, right? People want to crap on the new trilogy, the new Skywalker saga. We're fine. I have been watching. We watched those with my children. And now I said, okay, well, we need to go back to the beginning.
Starting point is 00:50:33 And we're watching all the prequels. If you are crapping on the new three Star Wars, please go watch the prequels. Please, pretty, pretty, please go watch the first three yeah you too and we will have a conversation because she stinks holy crap there there is yeah not much redemption in those three movies no all right jason you got two picks we want to keep this thing going mike with natalie portman dang i don't mind the pick. I'm surprised in the first round. I think she is fabulous. Black Swan,
Starting point is 00:51:09 outstanding, best performance she's had. She's phenomenal. She would have been my number one pick. Surprised that it's a first rounder. She would have been two-thirds of our first round pick. Shocking. Two-thirds of our first overall pick. She was number one on my list. Just for the record, Jason would have selected Natalie Portman over Mery was number one on my list um just for the record
Starting point is 00:51:25 jason would have selected natalie portman over meryl street i just want that on the record i as as would i i would also like that on the record i would take uh natalie portman over meryl street that's correct um okay gosh i feel like oh hmm okay so i see how it's easy to tilt when you get on the clock especially with two picks man i'm going a little bit yeah i'm going because i know here i'm not gonna say okay going a little bit modern here um you know more more common but i like i like versatility i like someone who can be funny and someone who could be serious, who can play roles that are both like, oh, it takes acting chops. Because everyone thinks when you think of great actors, you think of someone who has really great acting chops, a la Meryl Streep.
Starting point is 00:52:14 Drama. Drama, exactly. When you watch a movie where someone is more regular, more charismatic, more just a chill, funny movie. You don't give them any credit. Dude, yes. Being a regular, believable person on film while engaging, while charismatic. And so this person, I think, can do both.
Starting point is 00:52:39 And I'm a big Jennifer Lawrence fan, so I'm actually taking Jennifer Lawrence here. It's a great pick. Jennifer J. Law is amazing. All right. Oh, man. And her rise has been like, Andy, get Andy out of here. What does he do?
Starting point is 00:52:59 I don't know, because Betty White is next on Andy's list, followed by, I don't even know the old actresses, but her ascension from Hunger Games through American Hustle, X-Men, Silver Linings Playbook, she has taken off like a rocket ship. 2015 and 2016, she was the highest paid actress in the world, and it's not for no reason. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:53:24 Did you guys see Winter's Bone? Winter's Bone is probably one of her best. I have not. Neither of you have seen it, clearly. But I can put it on the list. But I have not seen every movie by every actor or actress in the world. I've seen almost none from Meryl Streep. All right, Jason, you got another pick.
Starting point is 00:53:42 All right, I'm going to go with this one because I think this will surprise you. I don't even know if this one will be on your list because I do feel like on a Mount Rushmore, you need people that aren't just modern day. So I'm going to switch it up a little bit, go a little bit more. When we were growing up, the Jennifer Lawrence of the time, the biggest actress when we were growing up. So I'm not going all the way back to like Breakfast and Tiffany time. This is making me uncomfortable because I'm pretty sure you're taking my pick now.
Starting point is 00:54:07 Well, that would make me very happy. But I'm going with Julia Roberts. Yeah, that's it. Okay, all right. She was just – when she was on top, she was the number one. She was a powerhouse. And that was kind of while we were growing up. I think she belongs on a Mount Rushmore.
Starting point is 00:54:22 And she stepped away for a while. She's come back. And she can do it all too. She be erin brockovich outstanding endearing and charming she can you know cry with the best of them yeah i'm sad that's that was the one i would hope i almost took her 101 actually on the uh you should have because meryl streep would have been there with your last pick that's mike i'm so happy that you're on my team here because i feel like we are a team of two against the world but i'm so happy it's not a team of one it's it's not that she's bad it's just that i'm i'm only taking modern day actresses that i grew up with that
Starting point is 00:54:56 i'm watching that i've been watching now for for a bit and i played the game perfectly i knew jason would not take her so i will i will add, I got Natalie Portman with my first pick. I got Sandra Bullock locked in with my second pick. She is fantastic, Jason. She is fantastic. Well, we're going to agree to disagree on that one, but okie dokie. No, man. Since she burst on the screen with speed,
Starting point is 00:55:27 Ocean's 8, she dominates. Gravity is incredible. And the only reason that gravity is good is because of Sandra Bullock. Gravity is the most compelling argument that you have for Sandra Bullock. That movie was outstanding and she carried it. Thank you. Thank you for agreeing with me.
Starting point is 00:55:43 And like, it's weird that we're in this world of netflix movies now because that's true i did like her in in because it because netflix it feels like well that's not a cinematic that's not a blockbuster but when you look at the actual numbers like bird Box is one of the most watched movies in history because of how it was distributed. And it's also very good. I enjoyed Bird Box a lot because of Sandra Bullock. So very happy with my first two picks. All right.
Starting point is 00:56:17 I get to pick twice then, huh? Yes, you do. This is tough. This is tough. Here comes Audrey Hepburn. do this is tough this is audrey heppern hey well see i i feel like i'm guilty of taking the draft too seriously that's what i feel like i'm guilty of in this situation you do you man i think because it's a great pick because i am placing such a value on the historical and the nominations and those things and you guys are like picking your favorite actresses.
Starting point is 00:56:46 Yes. Yeah, well, I mean, that's what I'm saying. So that's why I said I'm guilty of taking, you know, like if we did an iconic athletes one and then you guys, you know, I just took them all from Phoenix or something. That's how I feel like we were. But here's what I'll say. Here's what's very interesting about both actors and actresses.
Starting point is 00:57:02 You can, like, Jason and I just went through the imdb of kurt russell kurt russell a-list actor literally 100 movies on his imdb credits as an actor like incredibly well known this is kurt russell we're talking about go through through his IMDb, look at his movies, and count on one hand how many really iconic movies that Kurt Russell, who was a superstar, how many movies of those is he involved in? Being involved in four to five known iconic masterpiece, whatever you want to
Starting point is 00:57:45 count the words. That's very, very, very difficult for someone who works in who makes movies to do. Alright, so I'm going to go with I got two picks here.
Starting point is 00:58:02 There's only one that I hope you don't take because the first pick I'm going to take is Kate Winslet. That's a great pick. I think Kate Winslet got two picks here um there's only one that i hope you don't take because i'm taking the the first pick i'm going to take is kate winslet okay that's a great pick i think kate winslet is absolutely incredible and everything that she's in uh commands the screen thinks she belongs on the mount rushmore yes i don't i don't have a problem with that one the second she's going to be really mad that meryl streep's on the same mountain. No, she will be quite happy with it. They're both Academy Award winners. You guys are brutal.
Starting point is 00:58:32 Alright, my third pick is going to be Jennifer Connelly. Oh, I love Jennifer Connelly. She's outstanding. Let me ask you this. If I had not picked Sandra Bullock, do you pick Sandra Bullock? No. Dang it.
Starting point is 00:58:46 No, I do not. I misplayed the game. I knew. Yeah. I felt in my heart that. Did you want Connelly to come back? You thought about it? No, I thought whoever I don't take is not coming back.
Starting point is 00:59:04 So Jennifer Connelly was on my list because, dude, her in Requiem for a Dream is, that's a movie you really only have to watch one time my favorite jennifer connelly movie if you want to add to that list when i told you the other jennifer lawrence movie is house of sand and fog if you haven't seen house of sand and fog uh unbelievable movie it was uh 2003 i thought you were gonna say the rocketeer no it's The Rocketeer she was in that yeah she was in that she was in what Beautiful Mind but you should you should watch House of Sand and Fog it was unbelievable
Starting point is 00:59:33 I got in early Jennifer Connelly I have never seen Labyrinth I'm sorry America I saw it for the first time maybe like 3 or 4 years ago it's great does it hold up Andy I mean David Bowie Jennifer Connelly yeah it holds up I've never seen Labyrinth. What? I'm sorry, America. I saw it for the first time maybe like three or four years ago. It's great. Does it hold up, Andy?
Starting point is 00:59:49 I mean, David Bowie, Jennifer Connelly, yeah, it holds up. It holds up for what it is. It's fine. I mean, you're going to watch it, and there's going to be a lot of like- Am I going to be really scared? No. No. No. No, you'll be like, you'll laugh.
Starting point is 00:59:59 Yes, you'll laugh. You'll have fun. I think you'll enjoy it. I think your kids will like it. Put it on the list. I'll fire it up. It's fine for kids, I think, right? Yeah. Yeah. I'm trying to remember. When they wake up from nightmares, I'll call'll enjoy it. I think your kids would like it. Put it on the list. It's fine for kids, I think, right? I'm trying to remember.
Starting point is 01:00:07 When they wake up from nightmares, I'll call you. Feel very happy with those two picks. Okay, so what's your team right now? Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet, Jennifer Connelly. It's really hard to narrow this list down. I've got like 50 that I feel like they're all in the same tier.
Starting point is 01:00:30 The combination of the list plus the game of the draft right now has me. Clearly, I could have waited for Meryl Streep. Yeah, we've made that abundantly clear. All right, Mike, you're up. All right. I'm so tilted right now i have because i have no idea i have zero idea where jason is going you and me both brother all right okay then i will i'm just gonna go the the route of i'm not gonna play the game because i don't know where jason's gonna go so i just'm just going to go the route of...
Starting point is 01:01:05 I'm not going to play the game because I don't know where Jason's going to go. So I'm going to take who I believe should be there. I will take Cate Blanchett. Blanchett. Yes. Is it Blanchett? Honestly, that's a tough one.
Starting point is 01:01:21 But she is absolutely incredible. The aviator, she helped carry that movie. Uh, maybe even a little bit more. I mean, and then, you know,
Starting point is 01:01:31 low trope life aquatic. She can do like Jason was saying, she can do everything from, from dramatic to actually being hilarious. And of course she can be super BA in thor when she came in and was just wrecking house what mjolnir goodbye yeah thanks to you said her that's fictional thor name better than her real name but uh that's a good pick uh it was a good pick and uh man i got two now uh can I interest either of you in allowing me to have 20 because I've got I've got a list here of a lot of people and I feel like it's impossible to build a team of just four that
Starting point is 01:02:16 really represents me and the and the and the the legacy it is just tough so here's here's one that I know I know this one's in because it's a throwback. It's an old-timey actress, you could say. But at the same time, modern day, I absolutely love. Here comes Judi Dench. Oh, look. She's on the list. She should be on the list.
Starting point is 01:02:39 Judi is on the list. But no, that's a young woman, Mike. Judi Dench is a young woman. I'm going with Maggie Smith because I love, love, love Maggie Smith. You're talking about – Googling Maggie Smith. Movies-wise, it's Harry Potter. She's Professor McGonagall in Harry Potter.
Starting point is 01:03:00 Television-wise – Sneaking the television lore of Downton Abbey in there for you acting is acting you know these aren't movie actresses these are actresses she's been on she's been in theater she's been in tv she is I did think of her for sure I mean I just I love I've never seen her in any role ever where I didn't think she was just just perfect for the role and she's 85 she's a cool 85 yeah i i'm like i'm a bizarre a bizarrely large maggie smith fan i just think she's awesome lean into it yeah no you do you so now my list is julia roberts jennifer lawrence and maggie smith i've got the age so i feel like i'm going i'm gonna i'm gonna go with someone younger, more modern
Starting point is 01:03:46 here now that I, you know, to kind of juxtapose with Maggie Smith. There are so many good ones here. I'm going to surprise myself. Oh, no, I'm not. Oh, goodness. This is a back and forth fair. I want so many to be my
Starting point is 01:04:03 last pick. Alright, I am going to go with emily blunt you know all right i did it that's what you hope you hope for the no screams she's great she can be an action movie she could be a drama she could be a comedy she unlike meryl streep can be in a musical and sing um meryl streep's been in musicals, but go on. No, you didn't hear the whole sentence I said. You said and sing. Yeah. So, yeah, I'm going to take Emily Blunt.
Starting point is 01:04:32 I think she belongs there, but my deepest respect to about 500 other names on my list. Mike's not happy, but he does get to pick now. Not that actress. I will select Emily Blunt. Unavailable. How come you have a list of 10,000 and that's where you go?
Starting point is 01:04:53 She's fantastic. I know that's why I wanted to put her on my Mount Rushmore. Well, good news. You can't. So your team is done, Jay. Why don't you read it while Mike thinks about his last pick? I have Julia Roberts, good news, you can't. So your team is done, Jay. Why don't you read it while Mike thinks about his last pick? I have Julia Roberts, Jennifer Lawrence, Maggie Smith, and Emily Blunt.
Starting point is 01:05:12 A great Mount Rushmore. I expect to win both genders of the Mount Rushmore drafts now. Did you win the first one? I dominated. Mike, your team so far is Natalie Portman, Sandra Bull bullock kate blanchett and then you have one final pick this is i believe you mean blanchett blanchett yes sometimes you get over eager all right oh my goodness this is terrible i'm happy because i have two that i really want and you can't take i had one that i really want that's interesting though that you guys both owned and done uh because she's
Starting point is 01:05:53 awesome dude have you seen edge of tomorrow edge of tomorrow is like the first movie that comes to mind with her which i think is not for most people no although mary Poppins. Edge of Tomorrow is for everybody. Whoever named that movie Well, it was renamed. What did they rename it to? I don't remember if Edge of Tomorrow was the final name, but it came out as Tomorrow Never Dies
Starting point is 01:06:18 or something. Live, Die, Repeat. And then it was renamed to Edge of Tomorrow. Whoever named both of those things should be removed from your position because that movie is awesome. That movie is awesome. But the name and the marketing were so bad. All right.
Starting point is 01:06:40 Final pick, Mike. I can give you. Would you like to? No, I have it narrowed down i'm gonna go where i'm taking charlotte char oh my gosh charlie's throne there you go that was one of the two that i was considering with my final pick because she is also freaking awesome in mad max i mean I mean like low key, she's just the voice,
Starting point is 01:07:06 but in Kubo and the two strings, she's super awesome. She's also won the best actress. She's. Yeah. She is absolutely fantastic. All right. That's a good pick.
Starting point is 01:07:17 I, it's, you made my pick for me because you eliminated one of my two, which means Nicole Kidman is my final pick. All right. All right. A lot of things. She can sing as well.
Starting point is 01:07:28 And Moulin Rouge, great movie. So I will finish it out. She ages better than most humans on the planet. Yeah. Yeah. So which is funny because. I believe she is currently 28 years old. Well, Meryl Streep and Nicole Kidman, both in Big Little Lies.
Starting point is 01:07:44 If her and Brad Pitt had a child they would never age it would be Benjamin Button yeah um all right so Meryl Streep Kate Winslet Jennifer Connelly Nicole Kidman my final four of the Mount Rushmore of iconic actresses did you guys have any uh since we're done Helen Mir helen mirren was on my list reese witherspoon judy dinch was on my list yeah i like emma stone kieran knightley hallie berry uh kristen bell anna kendricks i didn't have the heart to do grace kelly to match up with my uh jimmy stewart i was gonna do that just to mirror them amy adams but uh and skojo shout out to skojo who is just she's now just black widow but i mean we at least saw with marriage story you're like oh yeah no scarlett johansson's great connect
Starting point is 01:08:32 all right we're done what did we learn today all right what did we learn today uh we learned that uh i learned that sloth's nipples are in their armpits and that's a really important life lesson i was gonna say i learned that i will probably never beat alan that game i also learned that mike had a very large potentially valuable video game collection in his head how many of them are open let me learn one more fact how many of those are unopened unopened do you have a few i will put all the new ones at like five no no five split two i like two percent there's definitely some games that are in there that the intentions were strong and it just never happened all right Did you learn anything today, Mike? I learned that when you have a chance to draft Emily Blunt, you have to take it.
