Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, welcome to another Flophouse Mini, a mini episode of the Flophouse Podcast, a podcast that's normally about bad movies. But tonight we're doing a mini, that's a shortened episode where we're going to be doing something else. Tonight, I'm going to be your host. My name is Stuart Wellington and joining me are Dan McCoy, Elliot Charles Kalin. Lovely. So if you're a longtime listener, I guess I'm the only one brave enough to reveal my middle name. Okay, what's your middle name? Kirk. Mine is Lenton. No fake. It's Lenton. Yeah, Stuart Lenton Wellington.
Starting point is 00:00:38 So Stuart Lenton Wellington is talking and I'm going to continue. So if you're a longtime listener of the Flophouse, you know that we've been around a while and it might be time for a change. My co-hosts have been pushing me. They say, you know what, it's time for us to shift over to a more popular form of entertainment, time to turn into a sketch comedy show, sketch comedy show and whatever sketch comedy show. That's why there's so many of them.
Starting point is 00:01:03 Yep. And they're all successful and never have stinker seasons or episodes. So. Even the most successful sketch comedy show of all time is, I would say, mostly stinkers. The Ben Stiller Show is mostly stinkers? Okay, I guess in your America.
Starting point is 00:01:18 Now, an essential element of every sketch comedy show is impressions, right? People love impressions. Yeah, Monty Python's pretty impression based. Rich Little, Michael Winslow. Impression of Rich Little? These are not sketch performers, necessarily. People love impressions.
Starting point is 00:01:38 So one of the things the Flomp House needs to brush up on. You didn't have a third example. Michael Winslow does impressions of sounds, I guess? Rob Brydon and Steve Coog. Okay, fair, fair. I got it. And I got, that's a twofer. Is this a twofer?
Starting point is 00:01:52 It's two people. Twofer. So what we're going to do tonight is we're going to work on our impressions because I think the Flomp House needs to up its game. And the way we're going to do it, it's funny that I say game because we're going to be doing an impressions game.
Starting point is 00:02:07 Oh dear Lord. That's why I insisted we all get alcoholic beverages for this episode. Just to break down the walls, to loosen up, you know. Of consciousness, man. Get nasty. Ah, okay, so. In front of me are two stacks of cards.
Starting point is 00:02:28 One of them is a stack of cards that are the names of celebrities or characters from movies. This was a list that was collected by my wife, Charlene, so if they're bad or wrong, she's to blame, not me. I'm off scot-free. The other is a, and that, I'm gonna hand you a card, and that's going to be the celebrity or character you're going to have to do an impression of.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Normal charade rules apply, you can't just say the name. So not like the usual impressions we do? Not Saturday Night Live impression, or my impression. Or your impressions. The other card is going to be a card that you have to, that we reveal before you attempt your impression, and that is the scenario that you are doing the impression for, okay?
Starting point is 00:03:10 Wow, this is so much more work than I wanted to do on this episode. Guess what? It's a lot of work, and I helped. So. It seems like you do the most work. You had to write out cards. I had to write a bunch of cards.
Starting point is 00:03:21 You do a lot of work. I also, I'm not just making you guys do it, I'm playing as well, which means I am exposing myself. I'm revealing my inner self. Yeah. Exposing ourselves. Nope. So.
Starting point is 00:03:36 You get a lot of good card. So you do the impression, whichever of the two of us who get the, will make a guess if we get it right, we get the card to represent a point, you get a point, and if somebody gets the impression you do, you get a point, so you keep the other card. Oh, okay. Oh, get it right.
Starting point is 00:03:56 So, sorry, we're gonna guess who the people are. Yes. Yeah. Okay, yeah. That seems when he said charade rules, that kind of, yeah. Yeah, charade rules. It wasn't movie charade. And it's just call out, yes, which's charade rules. It wasn't Call out. Yes
Starting point is 00:04:05 Which has no rules just right? No. Yeah, uh-huh. It was the original what Applebee's outback and I remember, okay the movie charade Yeah back Applebee's They said you know, what we better if this movie wasn't kind of like a Hitchcock type thriller was instead of family restaurant It was a chain. Oh, it was like a William Castle style gimmick. There was a blooming onion in every seat. Every seat, wow. Okay, so.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Be careful, Cary Grant's doing the trailer, he goes, when you see my new movie, Charade, just be careful when you sit down, because there's gonna be a blooming onion in this seat. Oh, wow. It's fucking crazy, by the way. When you go to Outback Steakhouse, you go to sit down at your table,
Starting point is 00:04:48 and they've already placed an appetizer that you've paid for on your chair. On the seat. That's what's called Australian style. You have to be careful, because you paid for that, and you might not want to eat it after your quarter and pay to smush it into.
Starting point is 00:05:03 I pay for this full seat, and I'm only going to be using the edge that does not have a woman on it. I will say this, it's an Australian style restaurant and they eat down under back, down there, which means through their blood. That's why, yeah. That's what outback means.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Yeah. I'm sorry to all of our Australian listeners. Uh-huh, good day is what I would say. Because it's nighttime here, but it's daytime there. That's the joke of it. So since Elliot is the visiting team, he's gonna be going first. Oh man.
Starting point is 00:05:32 So let me pass you, this is the name of the character or celebrity. Okay. The scenario is listing side effects. You have to list side effects as this celebrity or character. And I'm making up the side effects. Yeah, or you can look up, I don't know. It's an improv game.
Starting point is 00:05:51 You can Google what, Larazapam or whatever. You know what, this reminds me, I won't get, this isn't this, I'll get into this one in a minute. Later, remind me to do the character which fits into this game that I was doing for my younger son earlier today I'll just tell you his name was general Williams to cum succumb it I'll do him for you later in the game Unless he's on one of these cards unless the name is Kermit and the can the scene is fighting the Civil War All right, oh'll do this one. Garsh! High blood pressure! Goofy!
Starting point is 00:06:27 Yeah, you got it! So I'm going to keep one of these that's on my little stack. I'll hold that one. Thank you. I didn't even get to gambling addiction. There's a number of medications where there's increased risk of gambling addiction, which I think is a very interesting side effect. Hey, let's get real everybody.
Starting point is 00:06:45 If you're having trouble quitting gambling addiction, seek help. Yes. Yeah, please. Thanks for getting real there, Stu. Okay, Dan, Dan, since Dan biffed that last one and that is your character and your scenario, cast a spell. Right.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Jesus. OK, there... Jimmy Stewart. No, I'm not like Jimmy Stewart. I'm not who I want to be. Because he did sound like Jimmy Stewart. Sylvester Stallone. Tom Brokaw. I'm so bad at this. Walter Cronkite.

I got a cage yes fucking I could not I could not get upon the right amount of what I still don't think it was Nicholas Cage no I know it was terrible I was like trying to hit I was trying to find the right role cage is that he's swallowing his own voice all the time. Yes, okay. Okay, so what does Charlene have in mind? This is for you. This is for me, I'm in the game, baby. I can't believe I biffed that so hard.

Starting point is 00:08:45 But it makes me so happy. Oh, that's great. Okay, so Elliot, you're next. Let's do this. We're so good at this. Okay, I don't even know why we're doing this game. Because we're already really good at this game. Dan, how many cards do you have?

You remember he's gotta be delivering a pick, or she has to be delivering a pickup line. I wanted to do one, but I'm like, oh this person, their age is not appropriate for what I wanted to do one, but I'm like, oh, this person, their age is not appropriate for what I wanted to say. Okay.

Oh, John Travolta. When you say weird, it means John Travolta. Weird. It's rarely that I feel like an actor is identified with one word that I don't know if he's ever actually said on film. This one's gonna be tough
Starting point is 00:14:13 because I don't think Elliot has seen this movie. This is gonna be hard, yeah. Is it from the last 20 years? Because I may not have then, yeah. Putting on a show for your parents. So I'd be putting on a show for your parents. For my'd be putting on a show for your parents or my parents Better be pretty pretty tame clean. Yep.

So, Mom and Dad, I am doing a show for you. This is going to be difficult because it's not the character with the big name. Is it the... it's the guy from Anorah? It is. Dan is correct, it is Igor from Enora.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Good job, Dan. Elliot, have you seen Enora? I have seen Enora. It was one of the few best picture nominees that I saw and I was glad it won, because I liked it a lot. Yeah, okay. I know the backlash to it instantly happened as soon as it won Best Picture, but I liked it.
Starting point is 00:15:23 That happens. Elliot, there you go, buddy. Okay. And you are talking about snakes. I'm a snake? Wow. Love it. Now, this is a rattlesnake, and it'll make you go, ooh,

Well, Tim Allen, I'll give it to you, the same sound. Ooh. Wait, Tim the Toolman Taylor? Well, Tim Allen, I'll give it to you, yeah. Okay. All he does is that one sound basically. I've never seen Last Man Standing. Maybe he introduced a new sound for that show.
Starting point is 00:15:53 Yeah, he's got a new sound. He's got another one. He's got another show? He's got another one. The premise is that he's a... Oh, his daughter moved back or something? Yes, he's an aging boomer who's got everything set up and he's got everything all figured out and then his younger daughter
Starting point is 00:16:09 Is it Kat Dennings? Kat Dennings, who probably has a kid, has to move back in with him So he has that boomer fantasy of being in charge still and dispensing wisdom, you know So every season there is a new show where someone has to move back in with their parents And it's nice to know that Tim Allen pulled that card this time. Dan? Oh, geez, Louise. Okay.

Starting point is 00:18:41 Yeah. They're like, do we need to give you one of those mics that they that comes down from down your forehead He's like no And it's also it's like in the movie heat it makes sense when you realize those characters high the whole movie.

I'm terribly disappointed with you. Michael Caine. I've heard that one before. Okay, yeah, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:33:57 Yeah, yeah, fuck it. Whatever, you know, you only live once, huh? So some of these scenarios I wrote down and I feel like I've hoisted myself by saying do a rap. Oh, fuck off. The only fitting carmictose is that you got that one. Yeah, I'm glad. You deserve to get it.

Starting point is 00:35:09 You say you love Rooting Pebbles in a major way. That was what I was gonna say. So he's rapping in commercial Rooting Pebbles. Or is this the in-canon, in-universe love that Peter Corleone has for Rooting Pebbles? Yeah, it's not covered in the text, but it's assumed. Yeah, no, you can, all the pieces are there. Yeah. It's more in the novel than in the film, but yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:34 That's one of these couple of cut-out, yeah. Fruzzo was eating a lot of Fruity Pebbles when it was raining. Oh, fuck off. And it found its way into the work. Okay, Elliot, There you go. Me again? Yeah, enjoy. Okay, you're doing some dirty talk.

Starting point is 00:37:25 Yes. That was a good one. Yeah, yeah. I feel like I got closer towards the end. Yeah, as we were going on it sounded more and more like him. If you had called yourself Sejanus, I would have understood. His character from Like Claudius. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:38 Okay, I feel like a lot of these are Char Cherry picked voices that sounds like her. Okay. Debbie Mazer. Harley Quinn. Explaining to your Uber driver that you accidentally tipped more than you meant to. So, so, so, well, the thing is, I gave you too much tip when...
Starting point is 00:38:06 Sarah Jessica Parker. Jesse Eisenberg. It's in the ballpark of what you're suggesting, but it's like... Let's put more New York on it. I gotta get raspier. Oh, Natasha Lyonne. Thank you. Oh, there you go, okay.

Starting point is 00:39:11 Miss Piggy. Greta Gremlin. Yes. I get my guess was going to be odd. There's the thing. I got all bricked up over here, so I knew what it was. And my. OK, well, I'm going to I'm going to probably cheat on this one a little bit we'll find out damn it Text on this one explaining to a waitress why you can't have a certain food and it's not because you're allergic It has an extra little you know zing okay
Starting point is 00:39:44 Look I Don't I just don't prefer that. There's nothing with an allergy. The thing is, you can't, you've already sat me in the corner and nobody sits Johnny in the corner. Okay. Oh, why would we get his name? From... Patrick Swayze.
Starting point is 00:40:00 No, thank you. Okay. Wow. I was actually trying to think of Two counter cards, man. What's his name? Who plays the dad? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:40:26 I only have 17. That is, Elliot wins the game. And after doing a relatively poor job on my William DeCumseh Kermit character. Well, that's gonna be for the listeners' side. I'm assuming they're going to say that Stuart had these. We had to break their spirit, not just capture their cities,
Starting point is 00:40:43 you know, that's William DeCumseh Kermit. So who's the... This looks familiar. Oh, you wanted to show you could do an impression. Familiar. I had one in my back pocket that never came out. Yeah, I don't think I have a Muppet impression. Let's see.
