It's not worth winning've all been waiting for, Heath.
It's the reason we've all come to love and adore the Minnesota Miracle Man.
And it's even heightened in this edition because it's not only do we get the Bombay solo skate, the trademark Bombay solo skate, but guess where we're doing it now, Heath?
On the goddamn beach.
Oh, my God.
Brandon, the magic is flowing you can feel the minnesota miracles
they're getting poured into that pot it's stewing on the back burner and bombay is about ready to
produce just a little bit of magic my friend and it's about time honestly because where we where
we where we left off with the last episode, we had the Soul Skaters.
We had James and Hector, Russ's crew, filling out.
Soul Skaters for life, baby.
Knitting Team USA.
Use the brakes, baby.
Remember that?
I love that.
Love that line.
Yeah.
But they started knitting Team USA back together.
And so now the last little piece we need is for Bombay to figure his shit out.
Yeah, to really get it together.
And I'm not going to lie to the listeners, Brandon.
There's going to be some pretty harsh Bombay takes in this episode coming from your boy Heath right now.
Because it's not that I'm mad at Bombay, Brandon.
It's just that I'm mad at Bombay, Brandon.
It's just that I'm a whole next level of disappointed.
So in this part that we're tackling here,
this little 10-minute segment,
which is minute 51 to just past the 70-minute mark for everybody following along,
we get the turnaround of Coach Bombay.
But that doesn't happen until about halfway through this little segment.
The first half of the segment Bombay is dropping the ball pretty hard.
Yeah. Yeah. But before we even get to Bombay dropping the ball,
we've got a great interaction where Bombay is pacing his lovely Malibu home
looking to jazazing out the window.
Oh, yeah, looking out.
I mean, that view for that house, Brandon, like, are you shitting me?
That is unbelievable.
That's the dream right there.
But like you said in the previous episode, the interior design, like, that is not.
God, no wonder he fell apart.
That's not a home, you know, that's like a house.
It's very sterile.
Yeah.
Oh, that's a great way to put it.
That's, I mean, it kind of felt uncomfortable, but like, that's the best way to put it, you
know, but we have one of my favorite interactions and this might get a golden cakey quote for me this interaction with bombay
and yon uh because um yon's like this is not a place for a coach and and so he takes him out to
dinner um and bombay's like man who's looking after the shop close for the first time in 10 years
yeah he doesn't take him out to dinner though he makes him dinner they're still in
the house well it makes him dinner sorry makes it dinner in the house i apologize i didn't miss
being there um and and jan is like i saw the iceland game on television and this is my favorite
line who's that man in the suit with the wet hair was it raining it's great but but to go back to
what you said just wait hold on i'm not done with the quote brandon he says uh bombay's like it's great but but to go back to what you said just hold on i'm not done with the quote brandon
he says uh bombay's like it's the style yan and yan's like you look like you just got out of the
shower he did but to go back to what you said keep going sorry to go back to what you said
where this is the this is the first time the shops have closed in 10 years, right? Yeah. If I'm Hans, I'm fucking livid right now, okay?
He's back in the motherland.
He'll never know,
other than like a few quiet weeks on the books.
Oh, no, dude.
So once he gets back, somebody's going to tell him.
They're going to be like,
you know your brother shut down the store, right?
For God knows how long.
How much longer do we have in the Goodwill games?
Like a week?
Yeah,
I think so.
It's a,
I mean, listen,
I'm not saying he did the right thing,
Brandon,
but like Bombay was floundering.
Jan put his good name on the line and he sees Bombay fall into pieces,
fresh out of the shower with his wet hair.
You know,
like he had to do something.
He just couldn't let the family
name get tarnished with end drinks their number one hockey supplier i mean there's a there's a
lot of things at stake here and he can't just sit idly by and let bombay fall apart like they did
they learned their lesson remember the last time they sat idle and let bombay do his thing he
became an alcoholic alcoholic lawyer and he was headed
right down that path you know let's gotta jump in gotta take action brandon but i mean poor
poor hans dude and i they could have just been summer man off season they could have just they
could have just been like oh hans hans came back and so i i left i left to come you know hang out they needed
us to understand the urgency the severity of how far bombay had fallen that's true but i didn't
just come out and close the shop bombay should be embarrassed about what he's what he's forced
other people to do in with his shenanigans yeah well and bombay
kind of gave yon a little toot he's like came 2 000 miles to make fun of me could have done this
over the phone i mean he did have a point he was just gonna make fun of his make fun of his hair
yeah well i mean he deserved to get his hair made fun of everyone made fun of his hair right
and yon g yon's like you look like a man who
needs a friend well yeah see he says that and then bomb big what is bombay responds with you just
don't understand what that's not how you respond to that jan doesn't know shit about Hollywood parties and photo shoots and all that stuff.
He just wouldn't get it.
The glitz and the glam.
He doesn't – yeah.
He's a rinky-dink ice skate sharpener from Palookaville, Minnesota.
He doesn't get it.
Exactly.
Bombay was brought out there for some razzle and some dazzle.
Hollywood Bombay, baby.
Oh, but wait.
Brandon, that is actually not what Jan sold them on,
even though that was the first thing Tibbles commented on was Bombay's good looks.
You know, he told the Goodwill Committee who he was.
Did not talk about the looks, Brandon.
It's a man who loves the game.
A man who loves the game.
Man who could teach the kids about more than just winning or losing.
Minnesota Miracle Man said he could teach them to fly.
So be that man.
Be that man, Gordon.
I paraphrased a little.
Hope that's okay.
Hope the listeners don't get offended.
Hope the yawn,
like the real big yawn D2 yawn fans don't get upset
for paraphrasing that.
The yawn purists.
Yeah.
There's like a huge
underground on the internet right
now of yawn purists
where it's like is yon santa
claus we don't know we don't know maybe i don't think santa claus what makes you think what makes
you think santa claus well because because maybe yon we we we don't we don't know if he's cousin
of santa claus we don't know if he's magic or not. That's for sure. He could have magic abilities,
but there's nothing to suggest that he is Santa Claus.
Maybe
Jan is the
second cousin of Santa,
and that's where Bombay's Minnesota
Miracle Magic comes from.
And that's why when he comes out here,
all of a sudden Bombay is like,
oh shit, I know how to coach again.
I will entertain the idea that both Jan and Hans have magic spirit guide abilities.
But you're losing me with the – that they're related to Santa Claus.
I don't know where you're getting that.
I just like to think that, Brandon.
You just think all magic people are related to Santa Claus?
You think they all look the same?
Haven't you ever seen that movie?
What's that movie?
Well, also, not just Rise of the Guardians, but also Tooth Fairy.
All those things are buddies.
You know, Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus.
We know that they're all buddies.
They hang out.
Well, yeah, but that doesn't mean they're related they could be buddies but well this time they are though okay well what's like to imagine it brandon who would be in a wet serape on my fun party
do you think do you think yon and hans do you think their magical responsibilities are solely hockey related?
Or are they kind of like a
winter
sport? Think they
get some ice skaters in there too?
We got Kenny Wu.
That's true. I still think it's more of
a hockey-focused magic.
Really specialized,
Brandon. Honestly, if I
was a magic bean,
that would be the gig I would be trying to get.
It's like,
just,
just let me be in charge.
Just let me be in charge of magic.
Let me be the hockey God.
And you know,
leave me alone with everything else.
I don't want any actually sick title.
I don't want any actual real responsibilities.
Just give me hockey.
But Brandon,
let me Brandon,
AKA the hockey god right after yon gives the best pep talk in the history of pep talks we get your favorite moment you're already i wouldn't i wouldn't say
it's the best pep talk in the history of pep talks because we got there is another pep top pep talk in later on in
this movie that's that's better that's that's true that's true it it's a great it's a great
pep talk but we we got an even better one coming up yeah coming up at the end it's the pep talk
of all pep yes but we have the sun setting on the beach we have bombay beautiful hair flowing in the light breeze we've got a
hockey stick we've got rollerblades and mother of god we have got a minnesota miracle man solo
skate brandon solo skate on the beach like i i didn't think i honestly didn't think the Silla Skates could get better.
It's just immaculate.
This is top notch.
This is fantastic.
Which beach do you think it was?
Did they say in the movie credits at all?
Oh, I don't know.
I didn't check.
I would assume it's by his house, though, in Malibu.
In Malibu? Like a Malibu beach there? Yeah. Well, I don't know. I didn't check. I would assume it's by his house, though, in Malibu.
In Malibu, like a Malibu beach there?
Yeah.
Well, I mean – This is like that little tennis pickleball court thing that he's skating on.
I would assume that's part of like his complex, his condo complex, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, like the neighborhood complex yeah yeah yeah like the neighborhood courts yes and then um yeah so i i
assume it's just like right by his house he's solo skating on the beach right by his house
yeah ah man but gotta gotta love the malibu beach yeah the malibu beach the solo skating i mean you
could feel the magic in the air there was a cauldron full of delectable duck potions getting
stirred up brandon the best part is the the scene the scene they end with as he he has the hockey
stick like is it like behind his back uh and he's just like gazing off into the sunset and it's like his silhouette in front of like the pink purple sunset.
Oh, it's fantastic.
My god.
Like you can't ask for any more and just –
I need to get a poster of that.
Hang that on my wall.
Absolutely.
With like a motivational Bombay quote behind it.
Or like a demotivational.
From like one of his worst
your best isn't good enough that's what i'll say yes yes the the post the the iceland game pep talk
is on that poster for you and that's what you need you can't have that like bombay positive
reinforcement you need him to get on your ass honestly Honestly, I'm going to fucking make that.
I'm going to make that poster.
And I'm going to hang it.
Get that on the merch store.
Stay tuned.
Yeah, get that on the merch store.
I'll try to put that on a t-shirt.
At the very least, I'm going to make it a poster.
And I'm going to hang it up on my wall.
So stay tuned to our Instagram and our social media to see the progress on that.
Yeah.
Man, I can't wait.
Your best isn't good enough.
Best isn't good enough, Jesse.
Oh, my God.
What a solo skate.
Anything else on the solo skate for you, Brandon, other than just like the majesty and the beauty of it all?
No, it was just I thought it was such a fan because i the the we we talk about the the mysticism of the bombay solo skate
it's a real thing that's where the magic his magic stems from and i thought it was just fantastic
to since they're in la to do it on the beach because i mean they could they could have very
easily just had him do it at the the practice facility or whatever but to do it on the beach because i mean they could they could have very easily just had him do it at the the practice facility or whatever but to do it on the beach
to do it on the beach was a brilliant fucking move yeah well because in minnesota he did it
on the outdoor lake and here he did it on the beach with that you know something about outdoor solo skate open body of water yep i yeah the uh his solo skating game changers though that's inside the ice palace right that's
oh that is true that is true that is true and then uh well i mean i don't think he had to really
compare game changers to the mighty ducks magic anyways you know that's that's fair that's fair
yeah do you think josh g is going to have a solo skate?
He better.
I mean,
I'd love to see it.
I mean,
I'm,
I'm,
you know,
I,
I'm curious about the new season.
We'll get some camp shenanigans.
We'll see.
But anyways,
let's get,
let's get back to this move.
What do you think?
What do you think?
Do you think,
uh,
Alex,
Lauren Graham,
do you think she has the solo skate?
Maybe. Well, we'll, we'll see. We'll she has the solo skate? Maybe.
We'll see.
We'll talk about that when we get there.
I'm not.
Honestly, I would be 100% down for a Lauren Graham solo skate.
As long as her daughter from Gilmore Girls was in the stands.
Lorelei?
Yeah.
What's her name?
Yeah, Lorelei.
Yeah, and Cat Kirk.
Okay, anyway.
So it ends the – we get the – so Bombay is – we're starting the comeback for Bombay.
He sure as hell takes his sweet fucking time, though, with this. Yeah, exactly, because we cut from the epic solo skate and we have team usa and according to the
subtitles they are all chattering at once on the bench brandon and they are concerned
where in the wtf is our coach and you know who else is concerned our boy tibbles he comes up
and he says hey we're gonna be great today right He comes up and he says, hey, we're going to be great today.
Right, team?
So then he says, where's Gordon?
So Tibbles has no idea where Gordon is.
The team has no idea where Gordon is.
And then Miss McKay has no idea where Gordon is.
The dude went AWOL.
Yeah, 100%.
The definition of AWOL.
Just ghosting him. And so my thing is right so
this is team ghost in the country brandon you can't you don't ghost america fuck that's that's
true that's very true if we've learned anything i don't know where i'm going with that. But anyway. Yeah, let's pivot. We'll pivot back.
But so I'm guessing at the timeline here, right? Because he comes home.
Jan makes him dinner.
You get the speech.
And while they're eating dinner and you get the speech, it's still light outside.
And then it cuts to the Bombay solo skate.
While I'm assuming it's a sunset, not a sunrise.
Right? I don't know what is that what you gathered i gathered it was gathered it as a sunset i so did i i gathered it
as the sunset right after dinner with yon he right after dinner with yon he immediately went out and
did a solo skate so in my mind this germany game is the next day. Okay. So we've had, we've, we've done the solo skate.
We've slept on it.
It's the next day.
And he's still not there.
Time management all day.
Where's your time management?
100% Brandon, like you are number one, you are an adult.
Number one or number two, you are, number one, you are an adult. Number two, you are the coach.
Number three, you are the chaperone of all these kids.
Number four, where the fuck are you at?
You don't get to just have a sleep in, a little slumber in your house in Malibu.
Do you think you just got like shithouse that night after the solo skate was just hung over and didn't couldn't show up till
the fucking third period oh my god brandon all i could like it's crazy because just fucking pounding
pounding coors lights right after the solo skate oh my god just just shotgun and bruise back just
tossing the shotgun and coors lights and tossing the cans into the water like a real fucking
degenerate crushing crushing marlboro reds you
know god damn bombay really really fell apart but anyways god where was he just disappeared
i could not believe it so third period he shows up what a fucking clown i was gonna say not only
does he not show up for puck drop which is uh you know unexcusable in and of itself he then proceeds
not to show up till halfway through the third period what do we buy what is what are you doing
what is taking so long bombay brandon we are miss mckay stopping at the concession stands to grab a
soda away from team usa forfeiting their way out of
the tournament.
You know,
if she gets held up at the ticket line,
she runs to concessions or the bathroom before heading to the ice.
My God.
Or if she,
or if she just doesn't show up,
she's just the tutor.
There's,
she doesn't have to be there at the game.
Yeah,
exactly.
Maybe she takes some time and goes and gets a little,
you know,
a little dinner date,
a little glass of wine.
Exactly.
Or maybe she had an extended brunch that morning or that – who knows?
There's any number of reasons that she could not have been there.
And the whole thing is that like Bombay – and like we'll get into it when it happens but and this is the last it could have
happened 30 fucking like three hours before it happened this is an elimination game it is it is
so they've already lost one to iceland if they forfeit this game they're out of the tournament
it's over done so done yeah like the team could forfeit their way out of the tournament solely because you can't
get your shit together in enough time to be a responsible adult and get
there.
Oh my letting your team down,
letting your country down,
letting miss McKay,
letting Tibbles,
let the ducks,
let me Minnesota down.
My God,
Bombay.
But thank God.
Miss McKay is there because save. she said she saves the day she was
a little reluctant at first but then she agrees because she realized what's at stake she realizes
this is it this is over yeah charlie's like you got to play pretend and she's like i don't know
anything about hockey he's like play pretend and i love when you know you know what i thought when
she said i don't know anything about hockey? Neither does Bombay.
Exactly.
You know what you can do, Ms. McCain?
You can make up a whole bunch of shit that won't actually work in a real game.
Flying V.
But you know what she – you know how I knew she was going to crush it during this Germany game?
What are you waiting for the ice to freeze?
Let's play. That's someone who knows their hockey right there brandon that's a that's a ballsy thing to say because a we're
waiting on you because you're the coach that's exactly what i said um they're actually waiting
for team usa to get their shit together and get a fucking coach on the bench so we can start the game it's already delayed
my god it's just the the audacity this is why they get a whole bunch of no calls against iceland everyone is sick of them and the tournament yeah this is just american hubris all over the place
just the worst display of it, Brandon. Cocky Americans.
American cocky.
I like it.
So she hops behind the bench.
We get the game started.
I got another question for you here, though, Heath, okay?
Yeah, yeah.
With Bombay.
So Bombay is not there, right?
The team is essentially coaching itself, right?
You just got creamed by iceland yeah why did banks
why did charlie why did nobody be like hey maybe goldberg maybe you set this one out maybe we play
julie just to see what happens you know maybe maybe we just see what happens here nobody why
the fuck why is goldberg still in the net dude Goldberg has way too much credit with the team, man.
Like he has, you know, like Kenny and Dwayne are his boys.
This goddamn blind loyalty, dude.
You know what it is?
Heath and sexism.
That's what it is.
I mean, you know, Goldberg has let has, you know, other than that one game against iceland has has gotten him this far
and uh he did he did he did shut out italy that's fair that's fair he has the gift of the gab and
is influential in the locker room brandon and you know it's unfortunate but that
yeah it's i said it last time irrational confidence guy leader
that's what's wrong with this may not be leading in the best way because there's a lot of shenanigans I said it last time. Irrational confidence guy. Leader.
That's what's wrong with this country. May not be leading in the best way because there's a lot of shenanigans that goes along with it.
That's exactly what's wrong with this country.
That's why the economy is in the shitter is because all these fucking irrationally confident people.
He's got the buy-in of the locker room.
You're going to be in between the pipes, Brandon. guess but i mean i don't know i figured like if i'm conway or banks especially if i'm
banks because i got fucking you know i got scouts riding on this shit dude like let's put let's let's
mix it up here you just lost 12 to nothing to iceland goldberg let's let the let's let the
girl play what if what if julie the cat
has been having some rough practices brandon do you ever think about that they haven't practiced
once heath well maybe she has not been putting in as much effort during their leaderless coachless
practices first of all she was out there crushing it during soul skating she was out there leading
the charge for stretching she was getting everybody to do cardio everything that i know
about julie the cat tells me that she's not half-assing it during practice i mean i agree
with that assessment of julie the cat but i want to play devil's advocate and just say that there
are possibilities that maybe she got lit up in practice a little bit
and so they're like you know what we're sticking with goldberg or maybe you know it's just if it
ain't broke don't fix it and they just kept goldberg it is broke you just lost 12 nothing
it's broke heath well we didn't goldberg it was only four to one until you know julie the cat
got kicked out and left goldberg out there to the wolves
that's true it wasn't 12 to nothing my apologies i forgot bank scored yeah but four one third period
was 12 that brandon 12 to one was the final right or did they get a second one yeah like yes he he
but like the team has given him a free pass brand Brandon. You just have to get over it.
I don't know.
Don't let it go, man.
Of any time to consider the move, it would be now when you don't have a coach and you just lost by fucking 11 goals.
If Conway is expecting to be Coach Conway here sooner or later,
he's got to be thinking about these things.
I don't know what to tell you, Brandon.
Just, you know, too bad that Coach Brandon wasn't there in the stands
to be able to back up Bombay instead of Miss McKay.
Would have made some stuff happen.
Me and my assistant coach, James,
we would have ran this a little bit differently.
You know, Julie the cat's a little passive.
And so Goldberg's probably just going to say, I'm lining up in between the pipes.
You know, tough.
That's true.
Yeah.
We got Julie.
I mean, being a 13-year-old, you don't need, you know, they're not known for their backbones, 13-year-olds.
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
And Goldberg's a mouthy little son of a gun
that's true yeah he's a he's a real son of a bitch that goldberg okay so um so anyways in the game
we got miss mckay doing her best to coach she realizes we're getting tired out there germany
is really throwing their weight around we need to trade places brandon we need new players new players but
i did like this part where charlie's like oh say change it up and she's like change it up and he's
like you gotta yell it change it up and then uh she gets the she gets the approval nod from
abraman and charlie i got a kick out of that so this this scene uh alerted me to another thing that that we're
lacking here yeah we don't we don't have a ton of players they got two lines maybe maybe three
tops like two and a half tops because we got one two three i'm gonna count non-goals three four five six seven eight nine ten this is some great content
listening to you count we got 12 so we're just above two lines just above two lines that's a
dicey rotation yeah you're gonna we're gonna be tired we're gonna be pretty tired guys yeah gonna be gassed
and but and they mentioned uh later on in the movie that that's a full roster
is 12 people uh well 14 if you include the two goalies 14 people that's that doesn't seem right
come on junior goodwill games i think we need to open up the the roster limit here a little bit
plus i'm pretty sure there's like there's like 80 kids on team iceland i'm pretty sure yeah let's you know
we got some we got some unjust roster shenanigans going on here for sure but after we get miss mckay
with some great coaching before the next face off once again, they're delaying the game one more time.
We get quack, quack, quack, quack, quack,
coming in hot from the stands.
Everyone is looking around like,
who the fuck is this guy?
So Bombay shows up halfway through the third period,
if not longer.
And he shows up right before a faceoff.
Like just zero self-awareness from this fucking guy
just coming in, disrupting the game.
They should have got a delay game penalty,
or the ref should have said something.
Yeah, had to jump in.
More Team USA shenanigans here.
The ref was legit about to drop the puck.
And then Jesse and,
and,
and key and Fulton kind of pull up and they're like,
Oh,
should we go?
Should we not go?
Yeah.
Well,
cause Fulton's like,
look who finally shows up.
And Jesse's like,
Averman,
ignore him,
take the face off.
So I,
I did love this because you had Jesse classic,
Jesse always skeptical.
He was not having any of Bombay.
He's like, let's just fucking take this face off.
Fulton was over it.
Fulton was like, this guy is just going to drop us again at the turn of a hat here.
But you had always, always loyal and defenders of Bombay.
You had Guy, who was in there, and he was like –
And Connie.
When Connie sees Bomb bombay her face
lights up i actually made a note of that as well connie always team first always you know first
follower that's what they call that in corporate america brandon connie is always the first follower she jumps in she's stoked up on the bench and is just getting the team
fired up and gee just like connie on the ice right he's like come on what do we got to lose
yep and that's where fulton's like nah man he's just gonna dump us and i just once again like we
said bombay stalling the face off this is this is what gets you no calls in the Iceland game because everyone's sick of your shit.
And spoiler alert for future movies, Fulton wasn't wrong.
Yeah.
Do you also like how Bombay just goes in real hot with a little cheeky kiss on the cheek?
You know, saying thank you, Miss McKay.
Yep, saying thank you to her for what?
I don't know, other than covering his ass.
I guess.
Could you imagine the Minnesota miracle disgrace
that would have taken place if Team USA forfeits out of the tournament
because his tardy ass doesn't show up.
It wouldn't be the Minnesota miracle disgrace.
I think it would just be the Minnesota disgrace.
Well,
whatever the miracle disgrace,
man,
what a miraculous disgrace.
That was the Duluth disgrace.
Well,
Minnesota miracle to Duluth disgrace. What a piece of shit. It's not bad mouth Duluth disgrace. Minnesota miracle to Duluth disgrace.
What a real piece of shit.
It's not bad mouth Duluth here.
That's a fine city.
That was no offense against Duluth.
I just wanted the alliteration.
It's not all about facts, Brandon.
This is showbiz, baby.
That's true.
It's all about the headline.
Yeah, I'm sure Duluth is a great city,
but that's where he's getting officially banished to.
He's no longer allowed in Minneapolis if Team USA has to forfeit.
But so he gives her the kiss on the cheek, says thank you,
and then he dives into his comeback speech, right?
Which, like we've mentioned before, time management,
this would have been so much more well-received
and so much more effective if you did it before the goddamn game started, Bombay.
Yeah.
You know what would have been awesome?
Coming into the locker room blowing the duck call.
You know what was not as awesome?
Delaying the game and walking through the crowd like a weirdo,
blowing a duck call.
Yeah.
Like this all could have been done before the game.
Like be on time.
The team would have played well from the beginning
instead of at the third period,
and they wouldn't be tied with Germany on the brink of elimination.
Yep.
Having to pull out all of the stops, you know,
having to go back and pull out all of the stops you know having to to go go back and uh pull
a pull out a flying v out of desperation well and and that's what you know once he tells them he's
like you know i'm sorry i forgot about the team the team's all i have i just want one more shot one more chance believe in me and so what does he do again
again his pep talks are not the great are not great at all they're not good because what
what like what a terrible thing to say when you're trying to win somebody back
when you say like the phrase you're all I have is not,
I don't know.
This might just be me,
but if you ditched me and then you tried to come back to me and your
reasoning for coming back to me is that I'm all that you have.
That's not a ringing endorsement for me to let you back in.
You know,
you're not coming back because you want to,
you're coming back because I'm all that you have.
You, you have to you're coming back because i'm all that you have you you
have to like well brandon we realize that you are not the only one that feels this way jesse also
feels this way towards bombay yes yes because he's he's very reluctant to start this flying v
yeah he's like oh geez on the world stage this is some peewee hockey amateur bs that i'm i don't
know if i'm about and then charlie is like come on jesse and then goldberg like we like i said
before he's got a voice in the locker room goldberg turns around and yells come on jesse just do it
this is a spot spoton Goldberg impression.
Love it.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I've been known to have such.
But I – so I did –
Let's go, Brandon.
Flying V, baby.
So I did love this version.
So I loved this because not only do you have – so Jesse finally gives in.
He's back.
He's full on board.
You got Goldberg showing some form of actual good leadership yeah but then do you know who's do you know who's on the ice for
this flying v averman charlie jesse gee so you have it's someone it's what i refer to as the og
lineup okay the og line you have goldberg Goldberg. You got Goldberg and net.
Okay.
Yeah.
You have Fulton and Averman as the defensive as the defenseman.
And then Jesse at center.
Guy and Charlie as the wingers.
That's the O.G. lineup.
That's that's that's the as duck as you can get.
That's the duckiest form of ducks I've ever seen.
Yeah.
I like that.
And Averman fires a wrister home. Little top shelf cheddar. as you can get that's the duckiest form of ducks i've ever seen yeah i like that and averman
fires a wrister home little top shelf cheddar from averman do you see that oh yeah
lester averman with the fucking dinger baby averman's no slouch man yeah who would have
thought i i mean you know i just i don it's just me, but I feel like playing hockey with glasses on would be hard.
With the helmet and stuff, right?
Yep.
I feel like that would be really difficult.
It's not ideal.
Yeah.
You would think maybe he would invest in some contacts or – because, I mean, I don't like wearing contacts either.
Oh, me neither.
I got LASIK.
I couldn't handle any more contact shenanigans.
Just went big.
Yeah.
I mean, I just wear my glasses all the time.
But, like, I don't wear them for sports scenarios, though, because my vision is, like, right on the line.
Of, like, you know, if I take the glasses off, I can still function and I can still see.
I just can't like, you know, I couldn't read a street sign from, you know, a block away or something like that.
You know, these.
I assumed you were rocking the rec specs for any physical activity.
No.
Is that a poor assumption?
I should.
You definitely should.
I did that for a Halloween costume one year.
I wore extraordinarily short shorts and did a straight tuck of a basketball jersey and shaved my beard into a mustache and wore Rexbecks and a comb over.
It's pretty awesome, but I definitely look like a level 12 creeper.
Yeah.
It was the mustache. Really, level 12 creeper. Yeah. It was the mustache.
Really, really hit it off.
Yeah.
Maybe I should.
Maybe I should invest in some Rex Becks.
Yeah, you should.
I mean, usually I just take them off some ladies at the gym.
Brandon, are you kidding me?
I mean, usually I just take them off.
You're built for athletics.
Usually I just take them off because I don't, to know you're built for athletics. Usually I just take them off because I don't – like playing basketball or tennis or whatever, you don't need fine detail eyesight.
It's just looking at a ball.
Man.
Well, Brandon, that's another post for the social media.
Get those rec specs fired up and let's get some action shots going.
So everybody should be listening to this podcast,
and you should also be liking, subscribing, and all of that jazz
so that it gets our numbers up.
And then you should also be buying our merch.
That way I can afford some rec specs.
Go buy some shirts, and I'll buy some rec specs with that money.
There you go.
Help a brother out.
Yeah.
People helping people.
Exactly.

Oh, wait wait hold on did you also notice the announcer he was like this is what i was going to bring up okay so he mentioned so we've established it's the same announcer
it's the same actor as the first movie right we is do we not i mean i suddenly felt crazy i feel like i was getting gaslit by d2 the mighty ducks
because i could have sworn it was the same voice but all of a sudden i'm having a lot of doubts in
myself even though i have sworn i was correct i went through the same thing and so so the the
reason for the reason for the self-doubt is because during this flying dv the announcer
mentions he's heard of this but he's never seen it before yeah which doesn't make any sense because it's the same guy so so i was thinking yes maybe they're
fucking maybe they're maybe it's not the same guy and it's just eerily similar so i went and i did
some research it is in fact the same guy oh my god it is in fact the same guy. It is Bob Miller is the game announcer in both D1 and D2.
Bob Miller is also an actual hockey play-by-play guy.
Okay.
He does it for the – I don't know if he still is doing it,
but he did it for the Los Angeles Kings.
He was their play-by-play announcer.
And you'll also appreciate this.
I guess where he graduated from.
Ooh,
university of Nebraska corn huskers.
Now your home state,
the university of Iowa.
Oh my God.
I fucking hate you.
Brandon is,
Oh my God.
You're the worst.
Keep going.
I hate you so much,
but okay.
That makes sense because he is from Iowaowa and so he's also a liar
there you go that's mystery solved that's exactly why but so it isn't god he's just full of shit
because he straight up lies to us and says well so so what is this it could it could be one of
those things like it could be one of the things with scott like how we have scott white who's in d2 and d3 he's playing two different characters
okay because he's just he's credited as uh game announcer in d2 okay okay let's see what he's
credited as where do you go bob miller let's see what he's credited as in d1 yep so d2 he's credited as game
announcer in d1 he's just credited as announcer so obviously different guy but lately later on
in the movie uh when we get to the second and final iceland game they show him on camera and
he introduces himself as bob miller himself so
he's playing himself in d2 yeah okay maybe that's the difference d1 he was a minnesota guy d2 he was
la king's sports guy yep he's he's la bob miller from the great state of iowa
all right well but that line didn't throw me for a loop that's why that's why i had to do all the
that's why i looked into it because i was like this motherfucker has definitely seen the flying
v before yeah like i yeah but just you know and here we have it the flying v maybe they overthought
it and we're like oh maybe no one will realize that this is the same guy as the first movie so
he's definitely seen this before i think that's what it was i think they were like nobody's gonna pay that much attention to
who's announcing the games you know they're not gonna they're definitely not gonna make a podcast
about all the details you know that's uh disney just has no idea um but yeah okay and they didn't
know they were going up against us he's you know that's and we
got we got a sharp eye for detail especially for the hours upon hours of prep that we put into this
dude i've i've watched this movie i've watched throughout this whole thing of doing these these
10 parts i've watched this this dt movie so many goddamn times over the past week like two
weeks it's my it's it's mind-blowing honestly yeah it's i almost haven't memorized at this point but
you know that's okay nothing nothing like taking an hour and a half to watch 10 minutes of a of a
movie that's well because that's exactly what i do because i i'll catch everything in it man
exactly i'll i rewind it 15 times i'll stop it i'll slow it down it's just
i do a note i do a note taking watch and then i do a enjoy it watch see i do a i do a i'll do
the note taking watch i'll do another refresh note-taking watch.
And then usually right before we record is when I do the enjoyment watch.
I just refresh it in my mind.
Nice.
Speaking of watching this in grave detail,
did you see that Russ was sitting by Jan in the stands while the flying V was going on?
Oh, I didn't catch that, no.
Yeah.
Little Jan and rest team up.
I'm assuming that like Charlie gave rest,
like some team tickets,
just like yawn had some team tickets.
Well, I mean,
Russ has been at every game.
Russ has got his ticket situation on lock.
So that's true.
But somehow they sat by each other and that's nice.
I'm assuming.
I'm assuming Charlie introduced them before the game
you know he's like hey because after the soul skating session we're like we're best buds with
with russ you know so he was probably like hey yawn uh great to see you again here's my here's
my best friend russ yeah and i did but i got i gotta believe that russ and yon hit it off real quick they're two
peas in a pod those guys of course yeah they both i'm sure yon just loved some of all of
russ's little attitude that he was giving everyone oh yeah yeah especially yeah yeah
let's run up yon alley with his wet hair comments.
That was my favorite.
But after – so we get – it was a 2-2 game against Team Germany.
We get a flying V. We get an Averman with a little wrister, little top shelf cheddar,
and they get the win, Brandon.
And we get the newspaper clipping.
Flying V soars over Germany.
I'm assuming they won 3-2, right?
Because it wasn't the end of the game when they scored,
but they don't give us any more information.
I'm assuming they won 3-2.
Yeah, they did.
Because later, I don't know if it's later.
It's later in one of these upcoming scenes.
They talk about Team USA had a at a one score win over Germany.
Okay.
There you go.
And I'm assuming it ended up being the game winning goal.
Yes.
And I'm assuming again,
we don't really get any confirmation on this,
but I'm assuming this,
this ends Germany.
I'm assuming they're out of the tournament now.
That's what I'm assuming too.
Since it,
since after this,
we get the finals basically.
Right. Or we get the tournament. Well, after too since it since after this we get the finals basically right
or we get the tournament uh well after this they after this there's two there's one more game
two more games right yes there's two more games one of which we don't see anything
yeah yeah yeah because we still we still play russia and we still play Russia and we still play Canada.
They don't show Canada.
That's just a news clipping, and they show just a tiny little bit of Russia.
And then that's when we get to the – spoiler alert – we get to the finals.
Yeah.
So, yeah, I think this is where we take out Team Germany, and that's nice.
Did you – do you got anything to say about
the newspaper clipping no because they don't assuming it didn't make sense yeah they don't
say it's it's the same paragraph as every other one that doesn't make any sense oh i love it um
okay so post team germany game we cut to the quad with jan and miss mckay there's assistant coaches with the ducks and we've got bombay
picking up a cutout and he said i've had a lot of big distractions since i've been here in la
um and he holds up the cutout and he says this is a distraction and the team all starts razzing him
he's like oh nice haircut looks familiar i know. And then he says, this is a fire barrel.
No, he says this is a distraction in a fire barrel.
Any questions?
This is a fire in a barrel.
It's not a fire.
Oh, fire in a barrel.
That's how I met.
Yeah.
Fire barrel, fire in a barrel.
It's all the same.
And then it's a distraction in a fire in a barrel.
Yeah, exactly.
That's what I said.
Sure. Sure. Yeah. and a fire and a barrel yeah exactly that's what i said sure sure yeah and and then the team all start portman says good job coach and then everyone is cheering and clapping
the biggest the biggest smiles on their faces especially especially miss mckay miss mckay is
fucking loving this oh miss mckay the fact that fact that Hollywood Bombay is being burned to cinders.
Oh, man.
It's just you got to love it.
So this is his Phoenix moment, Brandon.
He is now rising up from the ashes of Phoenix.
Again, born. No more Iceland love. he is now rising up from the ashes of phoenix again reborn no more iceland love miss mckay love
instead how many how many phoenix rising things can one person have heath yeah that's i mean if
you you know if you keep hitting rock bottom you can can always come back. Bombay is just living this roller coaster called life.
That's for sure.
And now, after their clapping, we finally – what are we?
We're over the halfway mark and we finally get some actual coaching from Bombay.
We're an hour into this movie and we finally get some actual coaching from Bombay.
We're an hour into this movie, and we finally get some coaching. An hour in.
We're on the brink of elimination, and that's all it takes to get some actual coaching.
Because you know what he says?
He says, we've got to study our opponents and study ourselves.
We have to learn from our mistakes.
You have special skills.
Now we have to refine them.
And just what took so long?
Yeah.
Well, this is like I have in my notes.
This is like it's like the first movie with Goldberg.
Right.
And Game Changers with Coob, where we wait 17 games to finally teach them
how to be a goalie, you know?
And that's what we're doing here.
We wait the whole tournament until it's almost over,
and then we're like,
oh, maybe we should teach Luis how to ice skate.
Yeah, that would be,
that could come in handy in the end.
And that's where I did love the Jan Sotakan,
Luis crashing into it scene.
Because that was excellent.
Yeah.
I wonder how many times.
They had to reassemble that wall of cans.
A million I'm sure.
To get all those shots.
And like.
We got to get back to the basics.
Not even like practical.
Like wise.
For the movie. But just like in movie universe thinking.
How many times do you think it was just the two times that he.
Oh, my God.
No way.
I was I was thinking Jan set that up at least 10 times.
Oh, I would wager he did it like 50 times.
Like that's a lot of time setting up soda cans you think he
made luis help him set him back up though oh maybe maybe he made luis set him that that's
that would be a better move is you make luis set him up each time that way he's a little more
cautious of yeah i don't want to work smarter not harder brandon yeah and that adds a little
more incentive because he's not he's like oh i don't want to fucking put these back up i better stop yeah use the brakes baby oh he said brakes baby i just i
can't believe that bombay like oh let's get back to the basics you know this would have been nice
when you had the team tied together and you had duane roping them yeah maybe i would have done it
maybe we should have been doing some hockey instead of fucking
rope you know but i mean that that rears its head in in d3 when uh coach orion shows up and
they're all they're doing the the lasso game and they're like charlie's like this is how we practice
that's that's not real that's not real practice so god damn it god damn it like they're getting
like all of a sudden it's like cool you know in between games we get just a week of training
no problem let's let's all let's all pause the tournament so team usa can have a training montage
exactly yeah then i did i did like bombay jumping on the treadmill with goldberg i thought
that was fun lean and mean coach lean and mean lean and mean fuck fucking goldberg man
fucking gold he's a leader brandon and then we get uh we're kind of you know after we get the
training montage do you have anything else to say about the training montage
before we get Banks in the locker room?
No.
I've said all I need to say about Coach Bombay.
Well, we get gear up because we're about to have another doozy of a moment.
We have the head coach whose player blatantly took a rough stick to the wrist.
And we have a coach who is like oh geez i i guess i
should have noticed that you hurt your wrist like are you shitting me bumping you were yelling
about the no call and it takes you how long to actually be like hey you know what we should do
you took a really hard direct shot to the wrist
under your pad with a stick let's definitely wait a few days before we get that x-rayed
this again goes to the fact that i mean a why why are there no assistant coaches it's just it's
literally just bombay b uh miss m McKay would have been much better utilized
plot-wise as a trainer
than a fucking tutor.
You know?
I don't know, man.
I don't know.
I mean, it's fine.
Like I always say, Heath,
we're not here for the plot.
Fool me once once shame on me
oh my god fool fool you twice and we get bombay is not as good of a coach as we all thought like
we just got hoodwinked as kids that's how honestly brandon i i think that's why i'm just like being
so rough on bombay is because i feel a little hoodwinked from when i was a kid like i didn't
pick up on any of
this i just assumed it's like oh yeah this is normal coach shows up in third period super
fucking inspiring bud like this is this is awesome i would have played my ass off for this guy you
know i don't know why i suddenly like grew up in the northeast there but um it you know what i mean
like i just i felt a little hoodwinked by bombay this is why i've
been saying since the since the very first time i've watched these movies coach orion
is is where it's at you know who but i as as a coach bombay i love i love the character of
bombay fantastic uh bombay the character theacle Man. But, you know, if I was putting together a hockey team, I would maybe I would maybe consider Gordon Bombay for like, you know, a general manager.
I was just going to say that.
Like, he's a GM, like a president.
Jerry West, a president of hockey operations kind of role.
But I'm not putting him as my head coach.
No, God, absolutely not.
Or if you if you do put him as your head coach you gotta have
an x's and o's guys as an assistant yeah you gotta you gotta really uh flesh out the that
those assistant coach roles because they're going to be carrying the bulk of the weight that's for
sure yeah you gotta have a deep deep bench of assistance for sure like even just you know
specialized offense specialized defense whatever you gotta do and then let bombay do the media stuff that he loves so much and you you you absolutely have to
keep an old scandinavian man on retainer just in case just when it's just when it's needed
yeah just in case bombay needs that phoenix rising moment again um but but yeah so we've got i would i would build a i would build
a specific outdoor rink for the sole purpose of solo skates you have a you have a hey man here's
your solo skating rink just right right next to his office outside right outside his office just
right there just be like bombay whenever whenever you need it
it's right here uh and so yeah we've got bombay in the locker room with banks having some back
and forth should have spotted it sooner sooner sorry man i wasn't doing my job you could say
that again couldn't you sure could say that again couldn't you you? Sure could say that again, couldn't you?
I mean, at least I will give him this.
He owns it up, and that's why we can all forgive him in this reclamation project
because he owns up to all of his insane shenanigans that he never should have done.
He knows it all.
And, you know, if you're going to F up, at least own it.
People can get back on board.
It's when you do stuff like this and then you're
like oh what like it wasn't me it was the this hendrix they were taking me out and it's like
you know what get out of here guy yeah we don't want anything to do with you everybody makes
mistakes just own it don't be a don't be an idiot and blame other people yeah don't be one of those
guys that's like gets super defensive and starts lashing out no one wants to be around
them you know no better yeah don't be a goldberg oh my god be nice to goldberg brandon
he's uh he's honestly he's uh he's a great uh first of all character and and sean weiss
fucking crushes it as goldberg he's's a great, fantastic actor, especially as a child actor.
Fantastic.
And Goldberg is a good character, but he's the character I love to hate in these.
Because he's not necessarily the bad guy, but he represents the air of the ducks.
You know, the bad side.
So I love Goldberg, though. It's like the air of the Ducks, you know, the bad side, you know.
So he's a – I love Goldberg, though.
He's a great character.
I would not cut him from the movie at all.
I just wouldn't let him play Goldie.
Did you get moved to tears by Bombay's speech to Banks about how, you know, his dad worked a lot when he was a kid too and wanted to score
100 goals and and spent half the game nervous wreck do they ever establish what bombay's dad
did no i'm assuming he was like a sales sales dude i assume he worked at hans skate shop that's
what i'm assuming i assume he was a salesman hans is working him to the bone, not letting him see his kid play hockey.
That's what I assumed.
I assumed it was salesman on a sales call, got in an accident in the snow, died.
Yeah, and you know what he was selling?
Fucking ice skates for Hans.
Oh my gosh, Brandon.
But I did enjoy that speech.
What I took away from that speech more so than Bombay, again, woe is me, Bombay, making everything about himself is we get Mr. Banks rearing his ugly head again.
Like even from afar, he is in Adam's mind.
This dad has done unreversible damage to this kid yeah and i'm
glad that like adam you know goes on becomes a lawyer is successful but like you know he do you
think he talks to it like do you think he talks to his dad i bet you i bet you he doesn't i bet
yeah adam banks seems like he has a lot of emotional intelligence for a youngster. And he probably goes home and is like, hey, dad, I hope I made you proud.
But I just – I'm not going to kill myself to do it.
I'm not going to permanently injure my wrist for it.
That's for sure.
I bet you he sends him a Father's Day card.
He calls him on his birthday.
And then other than that, he's like out of sight, out of mind.
Just okay.
Yeah. he's like you know out of sight out of mind yeah yeah but you know banks and his dad uh his dad's
relationship aside you know he's gonna go get that that wrist x-ray must come back negative right
let's see it's just just a sprain because since he comes back later yeah he comes back he comes
back later yeah assuming it's just uh well it wouldn't be a sprain because he got it smashed.
It would be a bruise.
Nothing broken though.
Yeah, yeah.
But then after the locker room scene, we're back at practice again.
Bombay is saying, you know, we'll work hard and we're going to succeed and nothing's going to bring us down.
And we've got Luis kind of, you know, getting up and over the cans again.
Did you hear Bombay coaching up Connie on her edges?
Bombay, that's like he's a one-trick pony with his coaching.
He's always talking about skating on edges.
Well, it's because it's very important.
Hits Portman with the soft hands.
Oh, yes.
Soft hands.
No eggs this time, though.
No eggs.
No eggs.
Okay, hold on.
I do have something to say about this upcoming newspaper headline because it's USA Downs Canada.
Marx Brothers?
No.
Bash Brothers.
Were you ready for this?
For me to go on another one of the most dated references
that they could have ever pulled out for a kids movie the marks brothers are like silent tv
comedians like this there's no way if you pulled a thousand americans a hundred thousand americans
i would doubt that even 10 would know who the fuck the Marx Brothers are.
You know what would have been a better reference?
The actual Bash Brothers.
Oh my god.
You could have put Maguire, Canseco, question mark?
No.
Portman, whatever.
That would have been way better of a of a reference
less dated uh but then then you i guess at that point you admit you're stealing their their
nickname you know yeah so you know you got to be careful with that so anyway yeah i just
mark's brother doesn't make any goddamn sense it's's the most, even for 94, that is wildly dated.
But more importantly,
when we're on this newspaper,
we see Iceland upset by the Russians now tied with the US of A
both with one loss.
Yep.
Tied with the US of A.
Yeah.
And then right after that,
and I think this is for the end,
right? Brandon, we're gearing
up to the end of the pod uh the end of this part yes we're getting up to the but yeah i i
this always bothered me the the fact that they they don't show us usa beating canada
because that's that's a fucking important game like If you're going to not show something, don't show Italy or don't show Trinidad and Tobago.
Show us Canada.
Listen, Brandon, I cannot believe.
Although you can't use steel drums if we're facing Canada.
I guess you could if you really wanted to.
You could force a steel drum in there listen i thank you for catching yourself on that because you could hear the outrage in my voice as i was getting ready to
jump in and say oh i'm sorry you're going to cut out the trinidad and tobago celebration like wow
that's an unbelievably terrible take that's why i said italy first you cut italy because we don't we
don't need goldberg we don't need goldberg using slurs to italians we can cut that out
yeah that's for sure okay is that so much okay i can i can get on board with that suggestion
and then show even if it's like a even if it's just a short you know 20 seconds of somebody
scoring a goal show something to canada and then the same with russia beating
iceland i would love to see some of that that would have been nice well you don't get to brandon
you get a fucking newspaper clipping and you got to deal with it bud not only do i get a stupid
fucking newspaper clipping the articles don't even say anything important it's just a goddamn headline
you are not supposed to be reading the articles, though, Brandon.
They are going to listen to this and be like, what's wrong with this guy?
Then don't show the fucking articles if you don't want me to read them.
Brandon's newspaper outrage aside, we're going to close this out.
I was the editor-in-chief of my eighth grade newspaper, Heath.
Okay, I take newspapers very seriously.
From your vast, vast editorial experience, you know a thing or two about deadlines, about getting a good article out, something that people want to read.
Exactly.
That's an eighth grade i was a newspaper editor
right there editor and chief okay editor in chief so i'm sorry i did not mean to
and then uh ninth and tenth grade in high school i just wrote for the newspaper i didn't i didn't
want to do editor in chief and then after that i fell off but from from from eighth to tenth grade, I was a capital J journalist. So I take newspapers very seriously.
Capital J, but I don't think it stood for journalist, Brandon.
It definitely stood for journalist.
I am.
We'll see.
Let's pull the tape.
Let's run the tape.
Can we pull some of these articles?
Are these online?
My articles? Yeah. Oh, God. Let's run the tape. Can we pull some of these articles? Are these online? My articles?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
I don't think so.
I doubt it.
Are these in the archive of your eighth grade newspaper archive?
Do you think they keep records?
I wouldn't be shocked if they kept at least one edition of each newspaper.
I feel like that would be smart to do, right?
If you were a high school newspaper?
Yeah, that would be fun.
And then bury it in the basement.
I don't know how easily accessible these things would be.
But I'll try to do some digging.
I did do a – one of the articles I wrote in seventh grade was a review of the classic movie.
Fuck, I can't even remember.
Is it Stuck on You with Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear where they play Siamese twins or whatever?
Is it Siamese twins?
Conjoined twins.
I'm sorry, conjoined twins.
Yeah.
I wrote a review of that movie.
I could probably go my whole life without reading that review or ever watching that movie again.
But okay.
You don't want to know what seventh grade Brandon thought about that movie?
I definitely don't.
But Brandon's early journalist career aside, we have Bombay back in the office finally putting in some work do you
think there's a duck connection to stuck on you if so we're doing that movie no i'm done doing

poly short talk let's get back to the we got we got one more scene here before we wrap up all right
so we have charlie running into bombay's office and he says you know coach with banks out we have
another roster spot open and you know how you always thought i'd make it better you know
how i told you i'd always make a better coach than a player but he's never he's never said that before
never said that once before i actually uh made a mark of that as well as like i don't think we've
ever once referenced charlie as a coach instead of a player but that's okay we're we're just breezing right on past that. And come on in.
Here we have our boy, Russ Tyler.
And he says, hiya, coach.
And Bombay, with an inkling of remembering when Russ was mocking him when he was yelling at Jesse, says, ah, Russ Tyler, huh?
Well, Russ, what can you do for the team?
You never heard of my knuckle puck?
I love that so much where he's like, you've never heard of the knuckle puck?
Are you crazy? This shot that I invented and solely use here in California, you've never heard of this?
