The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan LeBattard podcast. I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that. In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries. If they're just there, that hasn't happened to you guys? I've done it.
Starting point is 00:01:05 And now, here's the marching man to nowhere, fat face and the habitual liar. This episode is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Start of the day, start of the day And this year's start of the day Start of the day, start of the day And this year's start of the day Start of the day, start of the day. Start of the day. Start of the day. This is the start of the day.
Starting point is 00:01:27 Start of the day. Start of the day. This is the start of the day. Start of the day. Start of the day. This is the start of the day and they are presented both by Miller Lite. In the National League, the leaders since June 13th in record hits and team batting average was Jeremy. The Milwaukee Brewers and your Miami Marlins.
Starting point is 00:02:14 They square off this weekend in Miami. Or in Milwaukee. Hey, was that a big trade that happened in the MLB? Josh Naylor? Josh Naylor? It's certainly helpful for the Mariners. They needed a bat. The rumors that they could still go after
Starting point is 00:02:27 Yojana Suarez, who's also from the Diamondbacks in a separate trade. But it's a big enough deal because it gets the ball rolling toward the deadline. So now you could see some trades happen over the weekend. Josh Naylor, Soda's Drinker's Body. Naylor? Barely know her.
Starting point is 00:02:42 He's trimmed down some. Has he? Yeah, has he? I associate him as being a Plump Well, that's actually why so I'm drinker first baseman Well, come on, you know, oh I always thought AJ Burnett had a soda drinkers body You know what I'm noticing with the like Travis Barker tattoos tattoos convey soda Well, they also help you look a little bit more fit too Because Travis Parker, I think most people would think
Starting point is 00:03:06 that he's a little bit more fit because of the tattoo. AJ Burnett just looks like I'm seeing him at the gas station grab a nicotine pouch. He has pierced nipples. For sure. Yeah, every time I thought he's mentioned, I have to bring up he has pierced nipples. I wanted to get a sleeve tattoo once.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Oh, I thought you were just projecting that on him. No, no, he definitely does. Because I was buying it. No, I know he does. When they won the wild card in 2003, they had this celebration with the fans in this tent outside the stadium. And he was injured.
Starting point is 00:03:30 He wasn't even playing. But he was so drunk. I remember. And he had his shirt off. He was spinning around his head. And I remember as a kid, I was like, they pierced those? He called me ugly once. I don't really get it.
Starting point is 00:03:40 He called you ugly? Why would he do that? To your face? Maybe I was ugly back then. But he just saw you like, yo, that dude's ugly? I don't remember the exact reference, I just remember it forever.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Hold on a second, how do you remember when you were two sitting in front of a mirror, but you don't remember why AJ Burnett called you ugly? I mean, those are little details, I forget a lot of things. Were you having an ugly day? I mean, I don't know. He just walked up and like, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, juice. I mean, I was a beat writer,
Starting point is 00:04:02 that's probably gotten really comfortable with me being around, then he probably said something about ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly I don't think it's necessarily skinny fat. I think it's a combination of tiny pouch belly, like, and then no ass at all. Yeah. Roy said Hulk Hogan randomly. Let's get to the second stat that we have, which is, of course, presented by Miller Lite. Hulk Hogan, yesterday, died 10 years to the day of him
Starting point is 00:04:37 making that racist rant. Whoa. To the day. Yeah. WWE announced the very same day that they were cutting ties with him because he got pretty whitewashed from history and then it took like several years for him to get back.
Starting point is 00:04:51 He was always whitewashed. Hey, I've got one more Hulk Hogan top five. Oh, this one was a lot easier to come up with than the matches because he was not good in ring. This is the top five Hulk Hogan rivals. Isn't it amazing where you could say the greatest and most important wrestler of all time, not good in the wrestling ring?
Starting point is 00:05:11 No. Not good at all. Not good at all. OLI. This rivalry was exactly what Hulk Hogan needed for his career because Hulkamania was about to cease running wild. But then you had the Gulf War happen, and Vince McMahon had the inspired idea to have
Starting point is 00:05:29 Sergeant Slaughter become a turncoat and become pro-Iraq. Sergeant Slaughter gets the belt from Ultimate Warrior, who won it from Hulk Hogan. I was there for that. It was at the Miami Arena at the Royal Rumble, and then a pretty good build, and not a bad match by the way. There was blood in this match, the WrestleMania payoff between Hulk Hogan and Sergeant Slaughter, but Oli, Sergeant Slaughter. Oli, this guy was pretty decent in the ring for a big guy and he had pretty memorable moments even outside of his rivalry with Hulk Hogan, but this was a great example of Vince McMahon bringing
Starting point is 00:06:02 somebody in from the outside and he was always pretty good at promoting a monster and building a character that would seem larger than life and very difficult to overcome even for Hulk Hogan and it was Earthquake. Yeah, I love that program. It was like a post-WrestleMania program that went several months and Earthquake, it's hard once you come out the gates, you have a rivalry with Hulk Hogan, you fail. A lot of guys, we've seen this with John Cena, you get Lord Tenside, you kind of get forgotten and wasted. Earthquake, not the case. So they had to write Hogan off screen back then, all right, because he was going to do a movie or whatever. And so back then you had to do something to write him off screen
Starting point is 00:06:40 to keep the illusion, you know? And Earth, like he hurt Hulk Hogan really bad, and Hulk had to go to the hospital. And I used to wake up every Saturday morning, all right? I would watch my cartoons. I also used to wake up every Saturday morning. I would watch my cartoons, and then I would watch WWF Superstars, and they would tell us Hulk Hogan is in the hospital because this real piece of shit earthquake put him there I am Israel I'm
Starting point is 00:07:10 going on and they put up an address on the screen where you can write to the Hulkster in the hospital no you could write him a letter I'm nine years old at this time right now little did I know what you say little did I know they want you to write a letter because then they get your mailing address and they could send you stuff in the mail to order merchandise and all the old data pool that's right it was it was a gimmick to get my parents address you know say hulk thank you for fighting for the rights of every man right then and so I I wrote the Hulkster those I was nine years old. This is crazy. I wrote the Hulkster, alright. I wrote him a heartfelt letter. He's in the hospital. I was so sad
Starting point is 00:07:51 that Hulk has hurt. And that's not it because a month or two later whatever it was, I got a postcard from the Hulkster. I got a postcard from the, it's signed by him and everything, you know. That somebody else wrote. Well, you know, it's a copy of the signature and it's a generic, you know, thank you, little hulk maniac. And I was so excited, that letter came in the mail, the Hulkster wrote me back from the hospital bed. That's not the worst thing that Earthquake did
Starting point is 00:08:19 in his pro career. Izzy, I'd like for you to look up a YouTube video of Earthquake killing Damien. Got it. There's an iconic moment in his rivalry with Jake the Snake Roberts, where Earthquake kills the beloved Damien Snake of Jake the Snake Roberts, and it was traumatizing.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Thank you for telling me Damien was a snake. I gotta tell you, Earthquake sounds like he was misunderstood. He put a racist in the hospital, and he killed a snake named put a racist in the hospital, and he killed a snake named after a devil that used to go around attacking people. Like, I think that Earthquake may have been doing good.
Starting point is 00:08:53 It's an interesting way to look at it. He also debuted as Canadian Earthquake, and he quickly dropped the Canadian part. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, number five. Now, this payoff was one of the worst matches of all time, but during the Monday Night Wars, during WCW's hottest era, Sting was hanging from the rafters. Sting was taking on the entirety of the NWO. It carried like an entire year of programming.
Starting point is 00:09:16 He went to a whole year without talking. Whole year without talking and Sting was the biggest babyface in the company at the time. So Sting is number five on Hulk Hogan's greatest ride. How could you tell he was a babyface? He was like a bit of an anti-hero. This was his like crow era, but you could tell he was a babyface because he was attacking the NWO. Oh, and it's based on the crowd reaction. And he felt very hurt when people assumed that he was the third man in the NWO. Lex Luger, his best friend, was doubting his loyalty to WCW and he became this vigilante.
Starting point is 00:09:50 But he covered his face is what I'm saying. He did and part of the reason why the Starrcade match was so poorly received was they botched one of the finishes. Sting actually loses in the middle of the match. He gets pinned. They just like, oh nevermind that. The referee, the communication wasn't good, the referee counted three and it's like oh what just happened you know. I can't believe we did this entire year just for Sting to lose clean. Yeah it was bad. It was real bad.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Number four is Andre the Giant. Why that was. Number three, very emotional videos that he put out there yesterday. A good friend, and I mentioned that part of what complicates a Hulk Hogan's legacy off the field, and Hulk Hogan the person for me, is I know exactly how decent of a friend he was to Ric Flair, how he stood by his side when Ric Flair was at, like, Hulk Hogan was in the hospital so much. I guess easy for him to like Ric Flair,
Starting point is 00:10:46 didn't like other people in that locker room, but you know, a complicated guy nonetheless. But. Wait a second. So I'm just watching the video of this guy killing the snake. Terrible, right? Well, I don't know if I went to the wrong video, but he pulls out a bag from under the ring.
Starting point is 00:11:04 Sack. Bag's not really, sorry, a sack. Bag's not really, sorry, sack. Bag's not really, sack's not really moving, but assume there's a snake in there. And he goes like, what do you call that when you go from like. He runs the ropes. He runs the ropes, and then he's about to drop
Starting point is 00:11:16 like a leg kick on him or something, and they go straight to a commentary guy, and they don't actually show it. Am I watching the wrong video? Well, because it's so traumatic, they had to not show it on television. That he jumped on top of a bag. That was a snake in a bag.
Starting point is 00:11:30 It was a snake in a bag. OK. Yeah, Damien. So number three was Ric Flair. That was a fast count, by the way. I just watched. I was interested in the match that they did the count. Like, that was the fastest count I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Oh, it was a disaster. Was that Nick Patrick? Was it Nick Patrick? Yes. That was the long black hair. The that Nick Patrick? Was it Nick Patrick? That dirty scouter troll. The long black hair? The NWL ref. He was on the take. Number two, this guy was incredible on the microphone
Starting point is 00:11:55 and had a great rivalry with Hulk Hogan. Sold a lot of tickets. Main evented, the first ever WrestleMania alongside Hulk Hogan, and it's Roddy Piper. Roddy Piper, one of the all time greats, Roddy Piper, one of the best ever on the microphone. Roddy Piper never needed a championship to get over. Or a skirt.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Kilt. Yeah, Kilt, yeah. And number one, we went into, certainly Hulk Hogan's greatest program over a year long, his greatest rival, And should be interested if Hoke Hogan actually made it to the pearly gates Macho man is there telling them to be a man. It's probably on site Like Tony and Dominique probably not gonna happen Folks nothing says summer like long days clutch, and firing off a few bets on

Starting point is 00:14:34 Big movie weekend We'll see how big of a hit happy Gilmore to it. I can't wait to watch like that's that's tonight We had bobin on the show. It's on already. You can watch it right now. I thought about getting up this morning and watching it before work just to have like, cause it came out at 3 a.m. You gotta like set the scene in your house.
Starting point is 00:14:53 You don't wanna rush to watch. That's the thing is that then you get into like the whole thing, like I get into a thing with my wife. We're like, if then we go on Netflix, there should be like, oh, happy Gilmore Two's out. And then it's like, oh, I woke up and I watched it at 5.30 this morning, so I'd watch it before.
Starting point is 00:15:06 So then, do I like pretend I didn't? Do I watch it again? And I was like, you know what? I'm just gonna be loyal to my wife and not watch this, and we can watch it tonight with some popcorn. I watched a few minutes. Really? Minutes?
Starting point is 00:15:16 Yeah, a few minutes on the way in this morning. Like, you started the beginning of it? On the way in, while driving. I'm glad you did. Were you driving? Oh boy. I don't wanna answer that question. All right. I'm glad you did. How long is? Oh boy. I don't want to answer that question. I'm glad you did.
Starting point is 00:15:25 How long is it? What were your early impressions? My early impressions. How many minutes did you watch? Probably about 14. Watch. 14. And my early impressions is the premise
Starting point is 00:15:37 is about as nonsensical as the original. Good. I mean, you ever see Billy Madison? Can we talk about the premise of a movie? Some people here, I don't know everybody, some people recognize that I'm not a huge Adam Sandler fan. I'm not really liking all of his, I did watch the classics, watched them all once, right?
Starting point is 00:15:52 But I did start to watch Happy Gilmore Over again. And this one, it just makes me laugh. Like I don't think he could do it again today, but like the idea that he is a huge hockey fan and his dad gets hit by a puck and killed again today, but like the idea that he is a huge hockey fan and his dad gets hit by a puck and killed and he becomes more of a hockey fan. Like if my dad got killed by a hockey puck,
Starting point is 00:16:13 I'd be like, you know what, I'm gonna go ahead and change sports. That sport, not for me. You ask the Kachucks, that's how they wanna go. Can I guess? Can I guess? I bet, this is how it goes. The movie starts, he's like older, done being happy,
Starting point is 00:16:27 not playing golf anymore. He gets challenged by one of these, like the Scheffler, like a current golfer is like, hey, they have some sort of altercation where it's like, oh, I could still do it. And then all of a sudden it's like, happy. No, I think he needs money. I think you're right about what you said at first,
Starting point is 00:16:44 but the reason he gets back into golf is he needs money and he like needs money. I think you're right about what you said at first, but the reason he gets back into golf is he needs money and he needs it fast. So does he join the live tour? Kind of like last time then, because he needed it for his grandma's. I watched the first one last night, by the way. I was like, let me refresh the drink a little bit. Is it still good?
Starting point is 00:16:57 Oh, it's last. How'd you feel when Ben Stiller was abusing the elderly? How about I get you a nice glass of champagne? Yeah, well that's freaking hilarious. It's a common line we use in my house. I'm excited for this one. I wish it were, if it were in the movie theaters, we'd go to the theater, right?
Starting point is 00:17:11 It's directed by the workaholics guy, Kyle Newcheck. Oh really? That makes me feel better, not the three actors, but the guy that directed all the, yeah, exactly. So that, I was worried that the movie was gonna be bad. When I saw he's directing, it gives me hope. I think it's directing it gives me hope I don't know if you guys were watching that
Starting point is 00:17:31 No, call what you guys are watching or watching that show stick on Apple TV I've seen the first one Wilson and you know the premise of that is as a Somebody he discovers as this great golfer who I think spoiler learns a son of a golfer as well But that one this guy goes from genuine Genuine spoiler. Goes from, it really was actually. You know what I'm saying? He doesn't abide by the rules of spoiling. I did say spoiler alert. After, did I? I feel like Cappy Gilmore's gonna have way too many cameos.
Starting point is 00:17:55 That's one of my concerns. That's the part that makes me nervous. Well, so that's a Sandler. That's a Sandler. But seeing Bad Bunny on the bag. A Sandler staple is having cameos. And they're, I mean, Dave Patrick's gotta be in it. We Sandler staple is having cameos. I mean, Dave Patrick's gotta be in it.
Starting point is 00:18:07 We know MJF is in it. I saw one of the Bellas is in it, and one of the Bellas is mad because all of her lines were cut out, and she did a press tour promoting the movie, and then watched. It's like, oh, nothing that I said was actually in the movie. I saw Travis Kelce as a waiter.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Really? Wow. I did not get to any of those parts. I got to one part that I can't spoil for you could it's sort of the whole premise of the thing But it's it's wild I Can't wait to watch this my wife loves Adam Sandler. It's her favorite actor, so we see all of the Adam Sandler. That's so weird I like your wife so much. I'll pass. Yeah. Yes that that is a comp like She he's the top of the hall pass for her really Really? Yeah. Huh, who else is on that list?
Starting point is 00:18:46 Dave Matthews. Really? Yeah. I'd be more okay with Adam Sandler. And then Omar Epps, she loves Omar Epps. I was gonna say, she has a type, but then Omar Epps kinda, the program mold. What's the difference?
Starting point is 00:18:58 So you have like a Dave Matthews vibe. I do. Yeah. She must really love, I now pronounce you, Chuck and Larry then, because Adam Sandler and Dave Matthews flirt with each other in that one. Well Dave Matthews is in a lot of Adam Sandler movies. It just must have been a moment for her.
Starting point is 00:19:12 When did you stop waking up Saturday mornings? I don't, I'm still doing it. Yeah, me too. Haven't missed one yet. I like the beard, Zazz. Well that's because I'm an adult. Are you gonna just keep that going? You're a grown ass man.
Starting point is 00:19:24 I'm planning on staying an adult. Yeah, nice. See where it takes us You saw a movie last night, right? I saw fantastic for last night all right now You definitely have to be a this is Marvel free. Yeah, I won't spoil no spoiler Did you guys get your fantastic foreskins? Off for fortnight yeah, nope, okay okay I don't play for night have haven't ever played for tonight not a thing that I've done but I am excited about this one fantastic for I have to see every superhero movie the night before it comes out it like it's like it's well it's officially out today but
Starting point is 00:20:00 but now they release movies you know movies how movies just go on prides. You made fun of me for Backstreet Boys. Yeah, you think Backstreet Boys are the same as Marvel? Oh, nobody knows. Marvel! Backstreet Boys are the same as superheroes? Nobody ever said that Backstreet Boys are superheroes. Get the hell out of here. Who watched Bert and Ernie and was like, you know Bert's cadence? I gotta have that. Hey Bert. So I saw Fantastic Four last night, which is great. Nernian was like, you know, Burt's Cadence, I gotta have that. So I saw Fantastic Four last night, which, which is great. Okay. No spoilers. Again, it's a great movie, but here's, here's really what I took away from the
Starting point is 00:20:33 movie. Okay. So you know how before movies, there are trailers, right? Trailer. They show previews of other movies. All right. You know about these, right? Israel? Yes. And I used to go to the movies with you all the time babe oh is Israel you we used to do matinee dates we used to go see the song movies mates that's right the two of you just would go in the middle of the day to see saw movie middle of the day middle of that was that post morning show that's probably because Zazzleau asked me on a date yeah and I said you know what says absolutely I didn't do the popcorn trick though
Starting point is 00:21:11 We he's no one else well I love the saw movies and no one else wanted to go see them with me in the theater But Israel was down to go with me So we saw at least two maybe three of the saw movies in theaters. Those always our thing. Hey Israel, new Saw movies out, we're going, let's go. And I was like, okay. Yeah, we went, we saw the Saw movies. Anyway, you know how they show trailers before movies, all right, everybody knows that.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Yes, I think everybody does, yeah. Is it weird that at my age right now to be afraid of a movie, like a horror movie, to actually be scared of a movie because they showed a trailer for this movie yesterday. And I've seen trailers for it before and I'm interested in seeing it. I love horror movies.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Me and my boys go to see all the good horror movies. Yes, you can guess it. Can I guess the trailer? Weapons. Yup, yup, weapons. Good guess. Josh Brolin, what's her name? Garner, Julia Garner, who's actually Silver Surfer
Starting point is 00:22:07 in Fantastic Four. She's so married to Mark Foster, Foster the People. I don't know, I don't keep track of that stuff. And so, this movie Weapons, I'm going to see it because I have to know what is making these kids run away from the homes, and this movie scares me. I got a trick for you. If you're willing, Zazz, if you're willing to watch
Starting point is 00:22:29 the movie at home, if you got a little home theater set up in the manor, manor, mansion. Mansion. If you've got a home theater, the easy way to not lose your life when you're watching these horror movies, throw on the captions, man. Those things are great spoilers. I watched Sinners in a home theater in Orlando
Starting point is 00:22:48 at some rental house, and I was like, I don't know if I wanna watch it there, I don't really like scary movies. Is Sinners scary? I haven't seen it. And I was like, you know what, it's great. And I put on the captions because everybody in my family has to watch shows with captions now,
Starting point is 00:22:59 and I was like, wow, nice little spoiler alert right before the jump scare, I get to read it. Oh. I don't do Love Island with captions because it says who's getting eliminated before you see it. I go like this. Yeah. But you have to scare. I get to read it. Oh. I don't do Love Island with captions because it says who's getting eliminated before you see it. I go like this. Yeah. But you have to do.
Starting point is 00:23:09 You block all your hands up. Yeah, I put my hand up. I go like this and then I don't see the name. There's always a big dramatic, and the person leaving the island is. It's always a little early. And then you always see the name before they actually say it. And then you're good.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Yeah. Why don't you just not have the caption? I do the same thing as Billy. I do the same thing for Love Island UK, though. I'm literally doing kids Kids are sleeping kids love to sleep at the worst times Well, you mentioned the saw movies and I don't know if you saw so is it weird by the way that like that I'm scared. I'm going to see it. Yeah, it's not real. It's not the most weird thing about you
Starting point is 00:23:39 Yeah, you got other things going on Hollywood Reporter put out a top 25 best horror movies of the 21st century list, and I saw this list, and it is a dreadful list. So let's go through it real quick. Number 25, maybe some people haven't heard of this movie. It's Timothy Chalamet. It's a movie about cannibalism, bones and all. Really good.
Starting point is 00:24:00 I really enjoyed that movie. All right, so it's not, I, it's like- It's one of the only movies I've seen on this list, actually. So I don't even know if I'd call it a horror movie, so it's not, I, it's like- It's one of the only movies I've seen on this list, actually. So I don't even know if I'd call it a horror movie. Really? Because it's cannibalism, but like, that's a different thing than your standard horror movie, right?
Starting point is 00:24:12 Well, there's a few movies on this list. It's almost romantic, this movie. I'm not so sure that that's a horror movie, so we can get through it, but I'm glad we have someone here that saw Bones and all. I did like that movie. All right, that was number 25. Number 24 is a movie I didn't like one bit. I think it's the worst a 24 movie out talk to me
Starting point is 00:24:28 Oh, that's a good movie. I didn't like it. That movie's violent It is violent, but I just I didn't like it usually I can trust a 24 I was like the first time I'm like this does not bang for me number 23 opening scene in that movie's crazy Number 23 is really good a quiet place The opening scene in that movie is crazy. Number 23 is really good, A Quiet Place. Yeah, yeah. Number 22 is a movie I have not seen. Has anyone seen Under the Shadow?
Starting point is 00:24:50 I don't even know what that is. All right, no one. Number 21, another movie I haven't seen, His House. I haven't seen that either. Number 20 I have seen, Sam Raimi movie, Drag Me to Hell. That's a good movie. Solid movie. Number 19 is another movie that I saw.
Starting point is 00:25:04 It's actually about STDs. That's what good movie. Solid movie. Number 19 is another movie that I saw. It's actually about STDs. That's what the it is. But It Follows, great movie. And number 18 is Presence. Haven't seen that one. Number 17 is really good. The Invisible Man, that was a solid flick. You would call that a horror movie?
Starting point is 00:25:19 I think it's just more like suspense. Invisible Man. The Invisible Man is a classic Universal Studios monster. That's a good movie. So number 16, huge box office hit Sinners, available on streaming now. Number 15, I haven't seen Saint Maude. Number 14, people saw The Sixth Sense and they're like,
Starting point is 00:25:38 what if we get another movie with Ghost in a Twist? And that was Nicole Kidman's The Others. I saw that. You like it? Yeah, it's fine, I wouldn't have it this high on the list. Number 13, great movie. I guess it's a horror movie, although I wouldn't necessarily, I guess, it's a vampire, Nosferatu, pretty solid.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Number 12, we talked about this briefly before. You didn't like Us? No, I didn't like Us. Jordan and Peele. And I like the Jordan and Peele movies. Not like us. I like the Jordan and Peele movies. The ending, the twist in the end was cool, but otherwise, I didn't really us and I like the Jordan Peele movies. I like the Jordan Peele movies. The ending, the twist in the end was cool,
Starting point is 00:26:07 but otherwise I didn't really care for them. Number 11, The Witch. I love this movie. Robert Eggers, who did Nosferatu as well, one of my two favorite contemporary directors, they both have done movies in horror. The Witch is fantastic. The lead in The Witch is actually in Fantastic Four.
Starting point is 00:26:25 He plays Galactus, great voice. Oh, okay. Number 10, this was my biggest problem. This movie's crazy. This was my biggest problem with this list. Hereditary might be the greatest horror movie ever made. That movie is crazy. Don Lebatard.
Starting point is 00:26:41 Go ahead, Billy, ask him your question. Is gymnastics possibly- prop- Vlada. Possibly corrupt. Oh wow. Wow. Stugats! I got some phlegm in my mouth, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:51 It's okay, thank you. Yeah. Is gymnastics possibly corrupt? This is the Don Le Eddington, because Pedro Pascal has two films out at the box office right now. And I saw Eddington last week. He's been getting some work lately. Good buzz around that guy. I'll tell you about my Eddington story in a little bit. But Hereditary was one of the few films that made me stand up and go, what the?
Starting point is 00:27:25 It has one of the most shocking horror scenes ever. Yes. It's brilliant. Me and my son are looking at each other, holy shit. There's a couple of scenes in that where you're just like, oh my. Yeah, that movie's wild. God, Ari Aster is a wizard.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Any list that has hereditary behind the Conjuring is a crackpot. Conjuring's good. Conjuring's a good movie, though. Yeah, but it's not hereditary. the conjuring is a crackpot. Conjuring's good. Conjuring's a good movie though. Yeah, but it's not hereditary. Hereditary is really terrifying. Hereditary should be number one. Conjuring is number nine.
Starting point is 00:27:52 Pan's Labyrinth, I don't think is a horror whatsoever. Is that the one with David Bowie? No, that's Labyrinth. Oh, those are different? No, this is, no. Roy said it's a kids movie. No, no, no, no, I said everybody thought it was a kids movie.
Starting point is 00:28:04 So parents are taking their kids to see this movie and then, oh, it's a kids movie. No, no, no, no. I said everybody thought it was a kids movie. So parents are taking their kids to see this movie, and then, oh, it was a disaster. I'll tell you, one of my favorite films of the 21st century, a brilliant film by Guillermo del Toro, stunning practical effects. It is kind of like a fairy tale. One of the greatest, most terrifying villains in cinematic history.
Starting point is 00:28:22 Not a horror movie. Not even a suspense. like this girl goes through this labyrinth and there are creatures that I guess look scary, but I did not get horror movie vibes. There's one scene of body horror, you know, the guy getting hit with the club. Yeah, there's plenty of movies with body horror in it that don't qualify for this list.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Just a weird one, I't seen trade train to Busan. That's number seven number six 28 days later I haven't gotten around to 28 years later yet as I haven't either I've seen the first two of those movies like them both a lot have not gotten to 28 years number five straight up Hated this movie the host well it had it was a Japanese film And there was a sea monster. I just I saw it. It had so much hype and I was like this movie sucks. Number four is a movie that I've heard really good things about just haven't gotten around to it. The Babadook. Number three is a great film. Let the right one in. I don't know that. Number two, Get Out. Yeah, Get Out is great.
Starting point is 00:29:22 And number one, straight up haven't seen it. the skin I guess I got to see that one has anyone seen that film who did what is under the skin is that us who's in this I've never seen it okay have you seen trailers this movie this looks kind of socks to be honest it's a terrible list yeah have you seen previous for this new movie with Dave Franco and his wife together together yeah I know it's a remake. That movie looks kind of crazy. Yeah, it looks pretty nuts. They just start morphing into one another.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Yeah, I would also say, and I don't think it was on this list, and I haven't seen it, it was a remake. It just came out with, what's his name? The guy who plays Magneto in the newer version of X-Men. What's his name? Michael Fassbender.
Starting point is 00:30:01 No, no, no, I'm sorry. The newer version of Professor X. He's a good actor, that guy. Yeah, yeah, no, I'm sorry. The newer version of Professor X. He's a good actor that guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was in a split. McAvoy. James McAvoy. Yeah, there's a new movie that just came out with him
Starting point is 00:30:12 where they terrorized his family. Yeah, I saw that movie. What's that called? That should be on this list. Yeah, that should be on this list. I forgot the name of it, but. How about Smile? You guys see Smile?
Starting point is 00:30:20 I have not seen Smile. The movie's awesome. I put together a list of movies that should have been on this list. Barbarian? The Descent should have been on this list. Barbarian? The Descent should have been on this list. Yes, Descent is scary. The Mist should have been on this list.
Starting point is 00:30:31 It, the remake of It should have been on this list. Poor Georgie. 30 Days of Night should have been on this list. Audition, really terrifying movie. That should have been on this list. The Coffee Table, I don't know if it's a horror, something horrific happens. It could be a dark comedy, but hell, I don't know if it's a horror, something horrific happens. It could be a dark comedy, but hell,
Starting point is 00:30:47 if Pan's Labyrinth is a horror, the Coffee Table is a horror. I think The Exorcism of Emily Rose was in the 21st century, wasn't it? I like that movie a lot. That should have been up there, yeah, I guess. Midsommar, how are we not putting Midsommar up there? Yeah, Midsommar is that.
Starting point is 00:30:58 That movie's nuts. Ari Aster, and Ari Aster did a brilliant, what I would say brilliant, dark comedy in Eddington. I don't know if you guys know what this film is about. I think they're really, you could tell that the movie studio had no idea how to market this movie, in part because Ari Aster is kind of famous for a twist. Not your conventional twist, but sometimes movies just take like a hard sharp turn into a pretty dark and kooky place. I will say Eddington does have a trademark hard turn in it but the first half of the
Starting point is 00:31:33 movie is brilliantly funny. It's about 2020, the COVID starting, it's this town in Arizona called Eddington and it revolves around a mayoral race between Joaquin Phoenix and Pedro Pascal. Equal Opportunity Offender. It makes fun of both sides, and it's pretty good. We're at the point now where COVID is nostalgic a little bit. People were laughing really loudly at this movie, but there was something that happened
Starting point is 00:32:03 when I saw this in the theaters last Friday that genuinely terrified me. It was one of the scariest experiences of my life. And I thought I was a part of a viral marketing scheme. Because 20 minutes into the movie, this dude limps into the theater with a suitcase on wheels like. Not what you wanna see.
Starting point is 00:32:25 No, no, no, no. The man, this is how I'm gonna describe him. He looked like a slasher from a late 90s slasher movie. He was wearing a fisherman's cap, a blue shirt. Dead giveaway. Red suspenders, blue jeans, a huge belt buckle. The guy was wheezing the entire time. He showed up 25 minutes late.
Starting point is 00:32:47 Everybody, when this guy pulled up, was like, what is this? You can't see his face. And he's like wheezing during the movie. It's a movie about COVID, and you're wondering, like, is this a setup? What is going on? Anytime a dude walks in with a suitcase
Starting point is 00:33:02 at a movie theater, you're like, I don't need to tell you where your mind starts going. But there are times that he would just hack up a lung, coughing. Everybody in the theater was kind of tense. The guy's in there for 30 minutes. There's one time, one scene he laughs,
Starting point is 00:33:18 in a very creepy laugh. I was there with my buddy Mo Chetta, we're like, what the hell is going on? Are you guys coming up with a plan in case shit hits the fan? He was blocking the only entrance. So yeah, this is where the mind is going. 30 minutes in, he stands up, stands up,
Starting point is 00:33:35 looks at the entire theater, scans it. Like looks at the audience. Yeah, and everyone's like, what is this? He stretches and then he starts putting his hands towards his belt buckle, which is massive. I swear to God, right then and there, I'm like, I'm formulating a plan with Mochetta. And he like, lets out like this weird raspy sigh.
Starting point is 00:34:02 And then, like there is so much tension. Nobody is saying anything. No, we're all freaking scared. Number one, we're in a movie theater. The movie is happening right now? The movie's happening. This is during a scene with Austin Butler, who has a bit part in the movie.
Starting point is 00:34:16 And I guess it was a key part of dialogue, but no one's watching at this point. Everybody's locked in on Fisherman from I Know What You Did Last Summer. It's crazy. And then, he starts making a move to the suitcase. But he does a full rotation, because he was on a standalone handicap seat,
Starting point is 00:34:36 he does a full rotation around the seat, and then he grabs his suitcase, and then he slowly walks out of the theater, and you can hear the wheels squeaking as he was doing it. I was so scared, so scared. You just... Did you get any answers? He goes out of the... he goes into the entrance because you know it's stadium seating so he goes out of the picture but you hear the wheels still squeaking and everyone in the theater is like, I'm gonna be real with you, everyone's like trying to listen out for a clip at that point but he just left he was just in the theater for 30 minutes. You think
Starting point is 00:35:12 he lives in the theater? Very creepy. So there's no there's no answers to this. I thought I thought it was like a viral marketing stunt at first because he was coughing so much I thought like oh this is a COVID thing he looks like. That would be my first guess is an unhoused person found his way into the crevices of a movie theater. Cause I don't know if you know this, but those things are gigantic and it's just sort of work watching, working his way through movie theaters during movies. And if it happens to be a horror movie, Hey, I'm going to scare the shit out of these people.
Starting point is 00:35:38 But it wasn't a horror movie. No, I'm sorry. No. And at, at, at which point, at that situation, there needs to be a pre-ethuthanum strike there that should not have as soon as He stands up somebody needs to tackle it. There was a lot of fight-or-flight like I I was like on My tippy toes a little bit ready to like jump in your direction Isn't the move to just go like go hide behind the seat in front of you and lay on the floor They're not bulletproof. That's what I'm saying. No,, no, like my plan that I was formulating here was like, I guess this guy's moving kind of slow.
Starting point is 00:36:11 How close were you? If he takes something out of that suitcase, I'll just like charge him. I was like the third row in the stadium seating. He was in the standalone seat. So you think at this point, everyone in the theater is watching him? Everybody was.
Starting point is 00:36:22 Everybody like, there was a, when the wheels stopped squeaking, you could hear the sigh of relief. No was. Everybody, like, there was a, when the wheels stopped squeaking, you could hear the sigh of relief. No, but I mean, like, when he stands up and he's doing the, Everybody, I was scanning the crowd as well. Were you trying to decide if you were the one who was gonna spring to action, or if you were looking around and seeing if there was somebody else that might be more
Starting point is 00:36:39 quick with it? Did you see if there was someone else who looked maybe like they were about it? There was like this group of like younger people that were like Talking about him as he was doing stuff like what the hell is this because he was like hacking up a lung like There was a genuine thought there from what I could tell that people have thought that this was a plant of some sort It was it was that creepy after we left the theater I was I was looking to see if I could see him
Starting point is 00:37:02 No one saw him and it was one of those things after the movie theater, people were talking about the movie and were saying, what was up with that guy? I thought, I'm like, I talked to this other group, I'm like, did you think he had something? Absolutely thought he had something with him, terrifying. I don't like that story. No, it's a bad story.
Starting point is 00:37:20 Christian Wilkins got cut by the Raiders yesterday. Now that was one that the Dolphins fans were sad to see go. I think, I know, and I've seen people trying to take like a, oh, should we be saying sorry to Chris Greer? I mean, the injury, he got injured, and it was nothing that could have been projected. So in hindsight, who knows if the injury happens if he's here still, but to answer your question,
Starting point is 00:37:39 I'll take him back. Well, hold on. Should we, like was Chris Greer right? Should we say sorry to Chris Greer? I don't think that's, I don't think that conversation is because, oh, we knew he was gonna get hurt. I think it's probably more along the lines of why the Raiders cut him.
Starting point is 00:37:57 The Raiders cut him apparently because they don't like the way he rehabbed. Like maybe he didn't rehab over the summer, you know? So I think the question is, did Chris Greer know maybe this is like a low character guy? Like you can't count on him. He was supposed to be the opposite of that. Right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:38:13 That's why that's odd. Right. Because he's like a player rep. Like he supposedly is like the perfect team guy. So it's a weird one. It really does seem counter to what we knew or thought of him when he was here in Miami, that he would be a guy who would be unprofessional.
Starting point is 00:38:25 Because that's essentially, that's why the Raiders cut him. They're not giving him his money, and he's already filed a grievance. It's gonna be a big thing. It is, and there's a couple of weird things happening right now with bad ownership groups, not just the Raiders, but the Bengals too. The Shamar Stewart thing is like nuts over there.
Starting point is 00:38:42 Chris, you were talking earlier in the week about how the Dolphins secondary is troubling. Terrible. Particularly at corner, and they just suffered an injury at corner yesterday at camp. Was that like the main headline from camp or was there something else that tickled your fancy? The main headline is them getting out there
Starting point is 00:38:59 of like culture changes. Like they've been running sprints. The offensive line were running sprints the other day because they had some pre-snap penalties. Mike McDaniel was reported by Dave Hyde yesterday, seen on the field, they don't hear what he's saying, but just gathering the group and pointing, and so I think they're just trying to get out there,
Starting point is 00:39:15 the vibe of a culture change. That feels performative to me. It does. And this is a terrible start to training camp. Because then you also have the two of stuff, you know. I actually liked that. No, I liked it too, but we're talking about the first day of training camp,
Starting point is 00:39:31 the quarterback is telling the top wide receiver, we may not trust you anymore. You know, and that's the start of training camp. It's better than, hey, everything's good. Like I actually liked him saying that. I liked it too. I'm with you, I'm with you though. It doesn't give off like, hey, we're all together here.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Right, like I would have expected Tua to get up there the day after Tyreek Hill is all, I'm working on being a better leader because I'm one of the leaders on this team. If Tua would have got up the next day and did the whole, we're behind Tyreek, he's our teammate, we support everybody in that locker room, I would have vomited hearing that.
Starting point is 00:40:03 So I do like that to us says like yeah You literally quit in the final game of the season, so I don't know man We gotta see what happens. You know I learned about to it today. I think like DVN might have fake teeth Oh, he definitely does I didn't like that Mike. Yeah, what? Big teeth you absolutely killed him big teeth poor guy Introducing TurboTax Business, a brand new way to file your own T2 return, all while getting help from an expert

He used the N-word, never apologizing for That's crazy. But Saz loved his moves.

Starting point is 00:42:45 How does he write that so fast? That was a good job. Thanks for making me do that. That was a really good job. It is complicated. Yeah. It's super complicated. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:42:53 It's pretty easy to say he gave you joy and he sucked. It is art from the artist. Not too dissimilar from, well, dissimilar in several respects, but in terms of megastar appeal and bringing it to the audience, it reminded me a lot of Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson died. We were live on the air when that happened,
Starting point is 00:43:10 just like we were yesterday when Hulk Hogan died and both had these legacies. Look, his music meant a lot to a lot of people, but you know. Right. You know what else is complicated? Unwritten rules in the office. I'm curious because- Full pause, if rules in the office. I'm curious because.
Starting point is 00:43:25 Full pause if you will. Yes, I'm curious about this particular pause that you mentioned, Chris. Now Jeremy has something really cool that we want to get to going on next week, so I'm gonna balance that out with something awful he's been doing around the office the last few weeks. I know what it is.
Starting point is 00:43:38 Yeah, he knows what it is. Go ahead Jeremy, I think he knows. Go ahead, what have you been doing? I have microwaved fish. Yeah. Dude. For like, and not just been doing? I've microwaved fish. Yeah. Dude. For like, and not just once. Like several times a morning?
Starting point is 00:43:48 He's on like a health kick thing. Like that's why he's trying to eat healthier. And it's not only fish. I don't wanna do it. No, broccoli and fish. What are you doing? I'll make it worse, Brussels sprouts. What are you doing?
Starting point is 00:43:59 You might as well just go around farting the entire office. You don't do that, man. I know, I'm trying to figure out what to do, right? Are you pescatarian? You might as well just go around farting the entire office. You don't do that, man. I know. I'm trying to figure out what to do, right? You pescatarian? Well, no. Well, then why are you doing this to folks?
Starting point is 00:44:11 I have some heart stuff, so I'm trying not to eat red meat or anything like that. I know I should be drinking. Have a heart and don't be doing that in the office. What are you doing? Honestly, honestly, hand up. My bad, guys. I'll try to find a way to be better about this
Starting point is 00:44:24 and treat myself well while treating you guys well because it's unacceptable, I know it is. Every time I go to do it, I apologize to every single person that's there. Luckily, a lot of the time. And he tends to wait. I think a lot of you haven't noticed because sometimes I'm walking out
Starting point is 00:44:37 and some people are gone, but it's still happening. I'm trying to wait until basically the entire office is done and everybody's had their food because at the very least, like the wafting smell of barbecue or Chick-fil-A until basically the entire office is done and everybody's had their food because at the very least, the wafting smell of barbecue or Chick-fil-A or whatever it is that we have that will kill me is gone. So that, I know. It's, honestly, it's the worst thing I do.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Honestly, you're right. You're right. And maybe I can find veggies or a side that are better to eat cold and adjust from here. Because honestly, Chris, I appreciate the public call out because I deserve this. I deserve to kind of look inward, understand that my behavior's unacceptable
Starting point is 00:45:14 and go from there. Do you have anything on the other side? Do you have any good work that you're doing in the coming days to make up for this horrible office behavior? I do, thank you for asking. How about that? It's that time of year for Camp Fiesta,
Starting point is 00:45:27 which for those of you in the audience who are either new or don't remember from last year, Camp Fiesta is a nine day sleep away summer camp for children with cancer based here in South Florida.
