Rookie mistake. Hoffman. Like those posters. Yeah, but their heads are on the wrong side.

We're poster people. We don't care. Yeah, exactly. We're not slaves to your script. Anyways, I recommend watching Twister. Kids will love it. I'm not gonna. I have a list of things i want to watch but your kids have to learn about the magic majesty of helen hunt at some point

i know but i think we'll do that through uh eight years of mad about you did you know that paul reiser wrote that theme song and possibly sang it no he didn't sing it he didn't sing it no do you know that theme song uh yes tell me why i love you like i do tell me who could touch my heart as much as you tell me all your secrets and i'll tell you most of mine they say nobody's perfect but it's really true this time scuba doopa doop doopa do well i don't have the answers i don't have a plan something something baby help me understand what we do let me whisper in your ear it's real like you write it as a beat poem yeah and there was i i looked it up because i saw it recently on tv i looked up if he sang the theme song and there's a video of him playing the piano

the theme song while a woman sings it well they did the Kim Cattrall wanted to do the Sex and the City theme song and there's video of her doing that is it an original? no well you know the video of her doing a beat poem over her husband's um, like, uh,

stand-up bass? Oh, man. Do you know that? I do know that, yeah. It's kind of her version of getting bitten by a gila monster or whatever. A Komodo dragon. Is that what Sharon Stone's husband did?

Mm-hmm. And those are parallel in your mind yeah and i feel like sharon stone if she appears on a tv show her title should be komodo survivor but she she didn't get bit that's true but she did survive yeah she had to hear about it over and over oh here we go again oh man giving you trails not going to be in the new sex in the city no i know do you think they're gonna bring in another brassy kind of sleep around gal yeah um or is it going to be you know is it going to be a man is it going to be a digital creation i think it's going to be kim kardashian's hologram dad that sounds good yeah um yeah so uh so we're doing we're doing this episode uh right now we're recording this tuesday we're releasing it tuesday was the thing we're just trying out yeah uh the you know what you the episode you heard a few hours ago sounded a little rough

sure this is happening now so you just sit back you just sit back yeah we're gonna undo that belt gonna give you kind of a front massage yeah we'm gonna have a face-to-face front massage dave have you ever gone for a massage no i haven't never in your life never have you no but i've been to physiotherapy where they kind of like rub you down yeah but i've never been to like what's your physio need? What do you, what, what is your body ache? Um, right. In the last couple of months, it's been my shins.

Ah, yeah. But physio for shins, physio for shins. Um, and then sometimes my neck goes out and then, Oh yeah. Well,

your neck sucks. I mean, not your neck sucks, but like when your neck hurts a little, it, it's, it's over, man. Yeah man yeah yeah it's absolutely useless i get that like two days a year where you can't turn your head yeah and it's a very obvious that

like someone comes goes to talk to me and i have to turn my entire body to face them yeah i feel like on those days you should be legally allowed to wear a neck brace just so that everybody lays off you for a day, you know? And it just so happens that I'm going to court. Because you fell off a ladder, quote unquote? Yeah, but I was, because I'm committing insurance fraud and my boss hired a private investigator to make sure I'm not stooping his wife. These two are unrelated. But when you go over to stoop his wife,

you're wearing the collar being like, I can only do certain things here. And he's like, well, you got to hand it to Dave. He's not faking it. My wife, on the other hand. So you've been to physio. What is a physio? You go to physio.

They rub your shins. They say, ooh, daddy. Ooh, daddy. These are nice. These are nice. Would you pay for these? These are some supple shins, they say. What?

And then they let you go. Yeah. You're released under your own recognizance. And do they give you exercises? Yeah, they give you exercises, which I think nobody ever does them. And then they come back and they're like, the thing still hurts. That's what I would just want the exercises. I wouldn't want anyone touching.

Yeah, that's what I was in the market for was some of the exercises. But also, they just want to get in there, those physios. They want to get in there and really knuckle something up and stretch something out. They want to make you scream. They want to make you sweat and bleed. That's right. Is that dope enough?

Indeed. Indeed. Yes. Do you, have you been to a chiropractor? No, no, I've never been to a chiropractor. I have not either. Abby used to go and she had the one she liked the most. And she's stopped going to her. But she still dreams about this chiropractor, the woman with the big hands, is what she calls her.

Yeah, I mean, that's the one scenario in which you want a very solid pair of hands. That's not the one scenario. I guess also like a captain of a ship you hope that they have yeah hard hands a boxer i guess a boxer too uh-huh any anyone who's applying for a job needs a big you need to just like uh whoever's interviewing you you need to completely envelope their hands envelop yeah envelope yeah like, like an Andre the Giant, right? Like an envelope. Yeah, like an envelope over your hand. Envelope, envelope.

I say envelope. Vase, vase. Vase. No, wait. Vase? Vase? Vase. Spelled with a C like a coin.

Like no language? Oh, like mace. Yeah. Mace the rapper? Yeah, mace the rapper. So here are today's hot topics. We're doing this like The View. How do they do it on The View?

They literally just announce a topic. Megan says something and they all sit around making fun of her. Okay, well, these are all serious serious so don't make fun of me topic one do you think a restaurant has ever had chocolate mousse on their menu but it's a typo and it's actually chocolate mouse yes just like that um that restaurant in town that had a mouse that fell in the chowder rat chowder it was called rat chowder so i don't know yeah it's that's on you did that that place is closed yeah but they have a food truck do they really yeah i don't know what it's called but it's the same people who brought you rat chowder does the truck have like big ears and a nose and a tail and stuff like you're playing it up

yeah exactly they're leaning into this name uh because you know what chuck e cheese was around for decades uh-huh and no one ever thought twice about mouse pizza um do you think uh it's like uh what's better to be a restaurant or a food truck? I guess sometimes food trucks then are so popular that they're like let's open a restaurant. Yeah, I feel like the one downside of the food truck is that

it's like a truck and you're in there and it's pretty tight quarters and it probably smells in there at the end of the day when you're driving it around. Hard to get the smell of food out of a food truck. Yeah driving it around hard to get the smell of food out of a food truck yeah it's hard to get the smell out of food out of a car if you yeah exactly if i pick up pizza and bring it home like driving 10 minutes i have a an oregano car for a week which is admit it that's a treat yeah that's great yeah no i get the little you know those little like air fresheners that you can put you can clip onto your

uh oh yeah air conditioning yeah yeah yeah i just put olive oil in them i fill them up with olive oil and uh and then you have to go to the mechanic and say, Oh yeah, my air conditioner is broken, but it don't look too closely at it. It's greasy from some other, some other reason. Yeah. I actually don't put it in a little air wick pod. You just pour it right in. My brother had a car for years that every time it snowed,

if you turned on the heater, snow would just come into the car. And it was just like being under one of those artificial snow machines for the whole ride. Is that not supposed to happen? Like, what prevents that? Proper heat. But then wouldn't heat just blow water into your face? Yeah, that's true. Isn't hot snow just rain in your face?

That's a good question. I don't actually know what the screening is from the outside to the inside. Yeah. I'm going to start calling rain hot snow. Hot snow. My friend used to pretend to be an old man and when it rained he would say,

ah, nature's soda pop. That's pretty good um yeah yeah i think uh having but i also think having a restaurant that's like a brick and mortar restaurant stinks because then you have to like keep it clean in the dining room and all that kind of stuff whereas a food truck it's like ah go eat it on the curb you filthy animal yeah go take it back to your office and everyone will hate you that is a downside of a food truck because it does feel like you have to take everyone's order in your office before you leave yeah i was thinking of going to the food truck does anyone want to come no but can you bring me yeah can you bring me a pile of food do you ever have it because you work in a an area where a lot of food trucks kind of park and i've worked in an area where one food truck parked and it was always the same one

it was always the same one and it wasn't like it wasn't a vegetarian paradise. So I'd look at it and I guess I could buy a soda from it. But you won't treat yourself to a soda from a truck. And yeah, wait in line. Yeah. Wait in line. Really get your. It feels like soda tastes a little bit better if you pay for it, you know, on one of those square machines. Yes. Yes. better if you pay for it you know on one of those square machines yes yes if you get a root beer

from a square machine that's the best root beer you're gonna have and yeah if you if if they slide your card through a little cube that's like uh poked into the uh hole of an ip. Boy, I don't know how to describe that. That's not how they do it anymore. Now it's just a tap. Oh, yeah, yeah. You mean that you used to have to run it through like old-timey credit card style? Yeah, into the iPad square. No, you described it right.

I know what you're talking about. But then even before that, you just had to have change. Yeah. Yeah. Which was, you know, fun in its way. Yeah. But like since food trucks have become a thing here. Oh, yes.

Like more than like they were at construction sites or whatever. Now that they're like a widespread thing. When that came back, like in 2014, it was all card. It was all card. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, is a hot dog stand, does that qualify as a food truck? No. That's a food cart?

I guess. Yeah, but it's the only thing that's a food cart, right? Like in New York, you can get a pretzel or nuts at a cart. Maybe Pop-N-Wart, too. Yeah, no, you can get like, yeah, there's carts that have like an egg sandwich or whatever. Yeah, yeah, egg sandwich. That's what I got when we went to see Live with Kelly and Ryan. And we had to be in line at like five in the morning and the show started

at nine and we didn't get out of there till like 11 30 and it's like a full-time job and we were starving and we uh we got that that wonderful like croissant with egg on it um was was it it was ryan and kelly at the time you went there yeah i'm sorry i'm sorry i know you're a michael i'm a michael guy but you know what he really screwed over miss rippa so did he really i don't know the backstory this is a real view hot topic yeah he was just kind of like for because he was kind of filling in and he was they they liked him the best and they kind of formally announced that he was going to be the permanent co-host and then before like the day before that he took a job with the today show and like really hung her out to dry and uh so yeah he was doing both

like is that an ability like is that uh a talent like i do you wish you could make money by like knowing who's gonna be famous when you see a movie or like we see a movie so they're already kind of famous well like yeah but you're like oh that person who uh who only had one line was the best one in the movie i remember past guest brent butt telling me that the first time that um uh john goodman got like a speaking role was after him being in a fight scene in a movie and the guy seeing him being like that guy's better than the other guys in the fight scene and that's how he got so that guy knew he knew john goodman had the goods he's good he is good he's good he's he's so good i don't understand why he's on the

connor show isn't he like he's got that Coen Brothers money. Yeah. Yeah, no, he's good. I think the Connors is, I think he like wants Oprah. What's Roseanne left? What if Roseanne left and then Oprah was playing his new wife? What if Roseanne left and then Oprah was playing his new wife what if Roseanne interviewed Meghan Markle I think that would sound

a little something like oh boy yeah I don't mind I don't mind either of those scenarios Oprah was she was like a Whoopi Goldberg too she was an actor and then I forget that she was an actor and then i forget

that she's an actor and then she just will show up in a movie once in a while yeah she was a reporter was she a reporter turned actor turned talk show host yes in chicago yeah yeah well no maybe she was a reporter in like the south oh okay she always had very big hair that was her like signature from i feel like someone must have been like the scout who saw her doing the news and was like you yeah you're gonna be huge um well lauren michaels he famously uh picked conan o'brien who had never been on tv before to host a every night talk show yeah but you know what worked out just fine and and then oprah picked both dr phil and dr oz because she that's right she's never misses yeah this is oh it would suck to be the one pick of hers that didn't make it

i guess she picked rachel ray too yeah wow flawless flawless uh i mean um rachel ray was popular rachel is uh the only one i think who has a redeeming qualities of those of the ones she chose oh dr oz i liked does he still wear scrubs on a show i'm not asking you to know but he's i think he still wears scrubs he still talks about the shape of your poo what should it which should it be like a c or a c or s your first initial well yeah for you it would be a g lowercase or uppercase yeah yeah yeah either is perfectly healthy i think we could someone do like a dr oz um maybe a dr oz dr demento type spoof song

where he does uh i'm in love with the shape of poo. I didn't know that he was such a champion of poo shapes. I think that's what, that's what the only thing I know of him and that he's been wrong a lot. Yeah. He, um, like,

cause he sometimes does like the Dr. Phil thing where you'll have people on that are not doing anything medical and then he counsels them i don't know dr phil show that's the most that's the most exploitative one of the bunch yeah where he just yells at people yeah which on occasion if i'm in a hotel somewhere and it's if it's on one of the channels sure i'll watch it sure i just remember when we first had margo and uh we were just home all day abby was watching live with kelly and michael every morning sure and that we just kept it on that channel all day it was on ctv and it was so it was followed by the view and then i think uh boy what was the canadian one the social

the social yeah and then the noon news and then dr phil and it was like this it takes a dark turn at 1 p.m yeah wasn't there also in that stellar lineup for a while there was one called the chew or was that a different the chew is is somewhere yeah it's one of those it's a it's apparently the um the talk is taking a hiatus is that the one with sharon osborne yeah because she is a uh pierce i always want to say brosnan but it's... She's a Pierce Brosnan. She thinks GoldenEye's the best one. Yeah, she wants... Everybody, can we put...

We want to play GoldenEye on the big screen. Not the movie, the video game. The video game, absolutely. No, she's a Pierce Morgan defender. Oh, yeah. Well, you know what? Pierce, as far as I know, he's never done anything defender. Oh, yeah. Well, you know what? As far as I know, he's never done anything bad. He seems really cool.

He seems really chilled out. He's got a lot of Twitter followers, who I think more than half of them are following him to make fun of him. He is. No, he's everything I want to be. Yeah. He is, no, he's everything I want to be. Yeah.

He's one of the leaders of Twitter avatars smoking a cigar. He's one of the leaders in that movement. Which, if you're looking for an avatar style, it's available to you. It is cool. I do like that people have ruined Twitter and go on there and get mad about things as someone who was on there when it was just jokes yeah those were the days that now people

like get mad about stuff or like you know want to do something important on there but it's there you're still just your avatar like I still just picture you know someone taking a silly selfie yeah but they're angry now for some reason like i'm still taking a serious selfie picturing that face yeah yeah yeah yeah and like now i don't think it used to be but now it's like um it's like clockwork like if the grammys are on every joke on there is about

the grammys and and it also is always promoted that's always been yeah and like people used to complain they'd be like oh if if you're just gonna tweet about the oscars for three hours then i'm unfollowing you for three hours i guess um have you ever had somebody follow you that you were just assumed was following you the whole time? And you're like, what the fuck? No. No? I mean, why? I don't know, because I've had people that I follow and I assume followed me.

But then maybe a year later, they follow me. And I'm like huh there's like i don't uh because i'm that way too with other people i'm like well i'm friends with you on facebook so what am i supposed to follow you on everything like yeah yeah do i need to see every picture you post three times yeah recycling content um there was a i don't know how it happened but there was a thread of the other stuff that that guy the balloon guy that makes like uh like sentences of balloons on the side of a building you know what i'm talking about no he's like he's a real meme he like puts up inspirational sayings or silly sayings

up on the side of a building using those mylar letter balloons that sounds you have a completely different internet than i do uh well my home page is uh kathylee.net and uh she's got the weirdest content yeah um so what about this guy i don't know people on twitter were having talking about him the only sentence i've seen written in mylar balloons is robin thick has a big dick huh huge if true literally um but yeah we we wish robin the best yeah i hope that he's still uh what was he didn't he get canceled for something yeah he like i think everyone went back and watched that video that was the most popular song in the world in 2013 and they were like huh well we're off the hook for liking this but you're not off the hook for making this yeah yeah i remember being at the

edinburgh festival and there was a marching band that would go around and they just played that song over and over again and it's not as fun without the video i will say that no no i'm sure it's not but the video hasn't aged well no i guess not but it that's it's not like that was in the like raunchy 70s it is true the other night i watched uh just like about half maybe of what is the one with Molly Ringwald and it's her birthday 16 candles 16 birthdays yeah 16 birthdays and that that was in the 80s but it could have easily been from the 50s you're talking about the Asian character the Asian character and also there's a lot of dialogue in it that you're like, Jesus Christ.

So all in all, like you say. We're making progress as a people and. And, you know, we'll get there. We'll get there one day. Next hot topic. Okay, here we go. Hey, you remember that? Have you ever, do you know that song hey wait uh do you know that song that goes driver's seat hey driver's seat no okay what song is that i don't know it's been in my head for a while is that from the soundtrack of baby driver i don't know it's somewhere in there it's stuck

i uh the song i've had stuck in my head for about a week is kid rocks all summer long, which I don't know why, but I don't know why I know all the lyrics. Is that the one that is, uh, werewolves of London and sweet home Alabama and sweet home Alabama. Yeah. And his, his video is him like driving a speedboat around a lake. And that's the way I like to remember kick rock now that he's dead yeah he died in that speedboat he's um yeah i i boy like there's such a weird um like double standard of what like the the how we have to hold some celebrities to a certain standard but it's like well kid rock is uncancellable yeah you can't exactly he he appeals to his base and

no nothing more and he he's not even like i've heard that he came from a very wealthy background he's not even like a like he's not even like a, like he's not even kid rock. I heard he's not even a kid. He's grown up man rock. He's a big phony. Remember him and Sheryl Crow doing a duet? That's when, when you said all summer long,

I was like, which one, which latter day, uh, like soft rock, kid rock song is this one. Was it the Sheryl Crow one? Was that one about a picture?

Yeah, I put your picture away. And it's funny in the video, I don't think that Sheryl Crow ever looks at a picture of kid rock and then puts it away. Like, I think maybe it's actors in the video, but that would be very funny if she had a picture of kid rock wearing his hat. No shirt. it's actors in the video but that would be very funny if she had a picture of kid rock wearing his hat and no shirt and like folds it up and puts it away in like a manila envelope envelope yeah and then mails it to kid rock this is what you look like you and it's like stink lines coming off i say if you have an axe that's the best way of uh getting your just desserts or giving them your

just desserts oh boy i mean that's why i would have an x because they took my dessert yes yeah um well any more hot topics no i mean uh i think we've given them all they need. Yeah, that's true. Well, okay, one more hot topic. Okay, here we go. Have you seen We Bought a Zoo? No. No, I haven't either. In We Bought a Zoo, why do you think they did that? On a dare.

They wanted to seem cool, so they did it on a dare. I think they were bored. Yeah, exactly. B it on a dare i think they were bored yeah exactly bored dare they had enough money exactly to buy a zoo they were trying to get role maybe they broke up with some rich person and they just wrote him a check for zoo make it out to zoo yeah or yeah maybe their parents were like okay you have enough money for one zoo or two aquariums.
