Starting point is 00:00:00 Coming up on TMS, the things that yell at me in my house. I've got the high ground, Anakin. You're a dumbass. The calendar game is so dated. Skeletor marks your pain. I need a COVID vaccine. How to cover furniture, complete with nudity. Is that a mask, or is it the lower half of your face? Scott's eye and tweet. Both go semi-viral.
Starting point is 00:00:21 A package of follow-up jerky. My potato arm is always in the way. Pull the toe to make sure. A rear-view window on the Tesla neighbors. Of course it works. I'm not a chump. I don't even know who the tadpool is anymore. Using acid with Bill.
Starting point is 00:00:35 Major spoilers and more on this episode of The Morning Stream. The Sendung was on 3.20th December 2020 in the international logistic center to further beferdering in the Ziland overgeven. And it smells bad too. The morning stream. Sweep the leg. Good morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:01:11 Welcome to the NBC. NBC. The more you know. Hey, welcome to TMS. There's no NBC here. We're not affiliated with any official network. Cable or otherwise. So welcome to what we do here at the Frog Pants Network with PMS, the morning stream.
Starting point is 00:01:29 Monday. Amazon, if you'd like to throw us some of that wondering money. Oh, yeah. We'd be all over it. That'd be fine. They're saving on some bandwidth here recently in the last day or so. I won't get into that, but since they are, they can throw it our way. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Let's do that. Hey, it's January 11th, 2020, and it's me, Scott, and him, Brian. Hi, Brian. Good morning. Hi, Scott. Welcome to a brand new week. Is it? It is, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:01:53 It is. I mean, I guess yesterday technically is the beginning of a brand new week. Depending on what day you've set your WordPress, calendar to start with oh yeah yeah good point are do you uh oh actually this is a great question that is totally boring but i'm going to ask you anyway oh good excellent what do you what excuse me what calendar interface do you prefer when doing appointments making calendars do you go google calendar do you do i cal like where is your head at what do you i do i do i cal only because of how integrated it is with the the things that yell at me in my house gotcha okay
Starting point is 00:02:29 So you've got, you've got that all, you've got a whole ecosystem going with your calendar. Got the ecosystem where, yeah, where we've got separate calendars. So, you know, when Tina puts, oh, recycling's been moved to this day, then I know what day to put boxes out and stuff like that. Right. That's good. That's good. I feel like, that's the reason I ask is I feel like I need to up my game when it comes to how I use that particular part of my life. Because right now I just have whatever's in front of me.
Starting point is 00:02:57 So I have an app that's like gigantic hal or some dumb name, but I like it because it's just a really easy interface. But it just interfaces with Google Calendar and ICAL anyway. Or not, they don't call it ICAL anymore, do they? What's it called? No, I think it's just called Calendar. It's just Apple Calendar. Anyway. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:14 Sometimes I'll use that because that just happens to be in front of me. Sometimes I'm on the web and I'm using the Google Calendar interface. And sometimes I'm doing advice by Gmail and it's just kind of all over the place. And yesterday I realized, I don't really have a good calendar game. Yeah. I mean, my Google email accounts are tied to my ICloud account. So if somebody, if one of my clients sends a meeting request to my work email, it goes into ICAL automatically or Apple calendar. Yeah, it just saves right in there, right?
Starting point is 00:03:42 That's what you want. This picture, can we, oh, I guess, never mind, it's a film sack thing. I'm like this picture of Artie Lang. I just want to remove it, but it's, never mind, I've got the wrong chat up. I need. Oh, yeah, you're in the wrong chat. Yeah, in TMS, there we go. The picture of Artie Lang, where it's...
Starting point is 00:03:57 The recent Artie Lang stuff where there's noses all mushed up into a potato. His nose looks like the top of a dairy queen soft serve cone. Yeah. Yeah, you kind of want to say, what's that coated in? Is that dipped? Is that a dip cone? You got going there? Turns out...
Starting point is 00:04:11 Oh, it's been dipped. It's been dipped in a fair amount of cocaine over the years. That's right. That guy is, he's got like, he's like a cat. He just goes on. So, more power to him. He was great, great sight. kick or, I don't want to call him a sidekick, but he was a long-time member of the Howard Stern in-studio group.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Yeah. So is Howard and Robin and Artie and Fred and everybody. And he was hilarious. Like, they go back over the holidays. They were playing some old interviews and things like that. I love Howard Stern interviews. And Artie would pipe in with some just great jokes and bet. He's a funny guy.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Turns out that guy. he's a hoot he's a hoot he just has uh he's got his issues man he's got his demons yeah those drugs they don't they don't give up i'm gonna give you this here this picture i'm putting in is him you're gonna put another picture we're never gonna unsee well this is nice because he's he this is him in recovery is that already now yeah that's seven months uh seven months sober and uh reconstructive surgery looks like maybe a little bit lost a bunch of weight uh looking yeah he looks like he's wearing a mask with
Starting point is 00:05:24 the lower half of a face on it though. Yeah, it kind of does. Yeah, yeah, it totally does. Things haven't matched up color-wise. Like they need to do a little smoothing. Yeah. A little nudge tool or a wooden tool. Just a little bit, a little filter.
Starting point is 00:05:43 A little filter. Yeah. Chat room here is the picture we were talking about from before. This was kind of at is at rock bottom for him. Oh, be prepared. Yeah, that's pretty rough. I hope he gets better. I do too
Starting point is 00:05:55 Seems like a teddy bear of a man Just totally does Yeah Just likes the snortin of the drugs Mm-hmm The snorten Need another We need some dream therapy
Starting point is 00:06:06 Okay Is there a band called dream therapy There should be There's a band called Dream Theater Yeah that's true You'd love that And I think after I would listen to a Dream Theater album I would need some dream therapy
Starting point is 00:06:17 How long? Boy, if Dream Theater songs are like 9 to 11 minutes average, how long would dream therapy songs be? I mean, that'd just be one, here's an album, it's got one song on it. Yeah, that's true. I'm looking here. I don't see a band called dream therapy. Maybe it's open, maybe it's available. Grab it while it's hot, everybody, whoever has band. Anyway, I've lately been having the weirdest dreams, and I think it's a combination of just sort of, you know, dealing with the modern day strife and my brain trying to process stuff
Starting point is 00:06:49 overnight or whatever. I've actually slept really well, but dreaming, dreaming, you know. Dreaming. I'm amazed. I mean, you've talked about this before, but I don't, I don't know why, but I don't remember my dreams. I'm sure I have them. And I think I remember that there was, you know, there was something going on in my head. Sure. You remember a vague of shadow of what happened.
Starting point is 00:07:10 I do. And occasionally I'll wake up and be like, oh, that was really weird. Well, mine are psycho, and I can't get them out of my head. For example, here's one for you. I had a dream. last night that all my pipes froze in the house. Okay, so like all the water pipes, which isn't actually that unusual.
Starting point is 00:07:30 If you forget to turn off your external hoses in climates like mine and yours, you can freeze your pipes. Or create a fracture, which means flooding and all that's bad. So we're always really careful about that, and I know we've done ours because I did them. So it's not like I was thinking,
Starting point is 00:07:46 oh, no, I forgot to do the thing with the pipes and it's cold now or whatever. But for whatever reason, I have this dream, all the pipes freeze. and instead of there being flooding or just a little bit of a spew outside the house or whatever, you know, whatever the problem would be, the house itself cracked into eight giant chunks. So like imagine, Brian, imagine you have a giant block of ice and you drop it on the cement and it just sort of separates into however many pieces. Right, a clean separation, not a shatter, but a clean separation into like. Yes, misshaping chunks.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Like they're not the same size chunks necessarily, but they're all. individual formed chunks. The house just went into eight of these and just laid there. And here's the weirdest part of the dream. That part, all of that is just stressy stuff. Like, oh, no, what do I do? And, you know, it's not that unusual. Where it gets weird is Tesla neighbor, the whole time is outside laughing at me,
Starting point is 00:08:43 but not just laughing at me. He's pointing and laughing. He's doing it in Skeletor laugh voice. that whole thing like that your house fell apart you boob you boob you imbecile like it was that kind of thing but he's but he's hanging
Starting point is 00:09:02 upside down from his leg in the tree in the backyard so the house goes clunk in the eight pieces and he's hanging up there and going like this oh my god I don't know what to make of that I got nothing I got nothing
Starting point is 00:09:17 yeah I don't know I mean the the house splitting apart into pieces feels like it's it's got to be something right I mean it's got to be it feels like that doesn't even have to be like well it could be this or this or this it feels like in the book right a house splitting apart into even chunks
Starting point is 00:09:40 big chunks is absolutely indicative of something something I don't know what I mean it's probably like just trying to keep everything together and then you're just worried it's all going to fall apart. Maybe it's as simple as that. I don't know. But why Tesla neighbors involved?
Starting point is 00:09:55 We're on good terms with the guy. Any new news? Like, is everything going okay with Tesla neighbors? No. Yeah, waving at him. And, you know, the other day, the kids were out. I picture Scott with a broken leg seeing the wheelchair. Mary, I think the Tesla neighbors are arguing again.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Well, I can't find Mrs. Lonely Heart's dog. It's missing. What happened to the dog? I've got to get down on the savings alone. like exactly like it there's been none of that they've been great you know i mean we haven't really talked to them or anything but they're just fine they're yeah i don't know man i just i woke up from that about i don't know six a m felt like middle of the night but it was only six and uh i thought well i just have to pee so i'm just going to pee and then we'll see what
Starting point is 00:10:39 happens after that and then i conced back out for another hour did you really yeah i went to sleep till seven and i didn't uh didn't wake up didn't have another dream of It was fine. It was actually kind of nice. It was a nice restful hour of additional sleep and then got up at seven and said, all right, dogs are going to shit themselves. We don't get this taken care of and got wrong with my day. I wish I could sleep past 5.30. I stayed up until like 1130 doing the two weeklies with the raid team. And I knew I was going to regret it. I'm like, no, let's just do it. Let's just get it done. Because I don't want to, today's going to be a busy day with work and I don't want to pug and all that sort of thing. How late did they usually go, like 10, usually? That seems a long longer. Usually 11. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:22 And last night, we did the first one, did two dungeons, did the first one. And it was 10 o'clock and I was thinking, oh, cool, I can actually go to bed at a decent time. And then they said, all right, you guys want to do the other one? Oh, man. Oof. Oof. Yeah, yeah. I'd rather do it with you guys than, you know, plug a group and have to fit it on a busy day.
Starting point is 00:11:45 So, yeah, I just went in and did it. But then got to bed at 1130. Still watched an episode of community because I couldn't fall asleep right away. And yet, no matter how late I stay up, 5.30, my eyes are open and I am not getting back to sleep. You got that biological permanent alarm thing. It's just said. Pretty much. Yeah. You're never going to get around it.
Starting point is 00:12:06 Unless you, what you need is another. I need to move to a state where 530 is really 7.30. Yeah. That's what I need to do. you need to move to the eastern time zone. Either that or like get a good two-week trip to like, I don't know, Italy or something. And then it'll F it all up backwards and forwards and then you can reset it. Well, the one-week trip to Ireland is in the cards for 2021 as soon as...
Starting point is 00:12:33 What's the date for you going there? When are you going to Ireland? Like two months after my first vaccination doses scheduled, basically. I mean, we, you know, we don't have... have a we can't put to date on anything until we know what the schedule is Tina's on the calendar as far as getting her her vaccine but I you know I'm not uh I'm nobody Scott I don't get a vaccine until the the hoip the the the put in up the hoi polo the um the masses get their their vaccine well we probably won't well I mean I have no idea with the guess everyone's
Starting point is 00:13:11 saying like summer but if I had to guess I mean probably summer I mean probably summer I don't know. But, yeah, Ireland. Ireland's calling your name. They want you to come, Brian. You've got to get home with her. The green aisle. Yeah, we were thinking, Claire, that I was going to get the vaccine because it was going to be like a household thing.
Starting point is 00:13:30 You know, if somebody in the household who works for essential services gets the vaccine, then people in their household would get it. Everybody in their household would get it as well. You'd think. Is that not the case? That's not the way it's working here now. Boo. boo, boo, I say. So what's their thinking there?
Starting point is 00:13:47 Just the, because if she's got it, she's inoculated against it. And assuming that those new strains are... She can still transmit it. Like, she can't, once she's vaccinated, she can't get sick from it, but she can still spread it. So, you know, she goes and sees a client
Starting point is 00:14:06 or an assisted living place or something where somebody's got it. I think she can bring it back home to me, but... Yeah. Mush it right into your life. Well, hopefully they hurry the hell up. Yeah, exactly. That'd be great.
Starting point is 00:14:24 My understanding is there's still quite a bit of backlog in terms of... It's not... The hold-up is in various places, not where you think it is. It's not just... We're getting them through as fast as we can. It's not that. It's kind of like, yes, the drive-in is full of cars, but also the burgers are in Cleveland,
Starting point is 00:14:43 and we're trying to get them on a truck. It's kind of what, well, from what I've heard, and I could be wrong on this, is that McDonald's has all the burgers, and they're all sitting there in the drive-through window, but they're just having a hard time getting the cars through fast enough to get to hand the burgers out. Yeah, got to figure out where you're, what do they call that, your choke points, not choke points.
Starting point is 00:15:06 Your bottleneck? Bottleneck. That's it. Yeah. Choke neck, bottleneck, bottleneck, whatever. I knew it was like a first-person shooting. think both those things I used to say that a lot in a sight pole yeah well anyway so there's that uh hey you watched one of Nicole's recommendals I was like hearing about this oh it's so good too how to with John Wilson on HBO Max oh there are six episodes we've watched the episodes we've
Starting point is 00:15:34 watched the first four of them and it is as good as Nicole described it's so bizarre like okay basically the 30 minute episodes and they have these silly little titles like how to do small talk how to put up scaffolding and that's that's what the initial part of the show is maybe the first few minutes and then this it goes down this weird tangent of well i met this guy when i was learning how to small talk who is uh who hunts down uh child predators and and we're going to go to his house and see what he's doing and then we're going to go to do this and then we're going to go on this other thing. And it is so good.
Starting point is 00:16:17 And I think, because it's basically this guy, John Wilson, takes his camera with him everywhere. And he is always filming, like always filming. That's his whole thing, right? His whole thing. And he's just got tapes and tapes and drives and stuff filled with the stuff. And so as he's doing his narration, he's showing like B-roll Fudge and things that he's recorded in New York that fit the whatever he's talking about, even though it may not have been at the time that he was putting this documentary together, each episode together.
Starting point is 00:16:48 Wow. It is so good. And if you haven't watched it, and I'm going to warn you right now, which episode was it? I think it started out with how to cover furniture. There is some nudity, some male nudity that is both. awkward and hilarious at the same time. Sweet. Man-weener, you're saying.
Starting point is 00:17:16 Lots of man. Well, yes, lots of man-winer. A portion of man-weener. Okay. A portion of man-weener. But it's done in a way that you won't be able to stop laughing at how weird and awkward it is. Okay. I, I queued this.
Starting point is 00:17:30 I just haven't watched it yet. So now that you both, now you've both pushed the button. Just be warned that you probably don't want to watch it with Carter. Oh, okay. All right. Hey, Carter, don't watch this. with me. I'll tell her. Like, would you watch the first Borat
Starting point is 00:17:45 with Carter? Oh, that whole like wrestling scene between Borat and his manager? I mean, she's old enough now. I'd still be embarrassed, though. You know? Like, it'd be embarrassing. I wouldn't go out of my way to watch that with her, that's for sure.
Starting point is 00:18:04 I don't want to see, here's the thing. It doesn't matter how old your kids get. It's never comfortable. No, it really isn't. Yeah. No, and as a matter of fact, it might even get, no, it's maybe less comfortable. It's going to stay the same level of awkward and uncomfortable that it would be as kids, with your kids. At least with kids, you're in a position of saying, oh, okay, pause, fast, you know, you can kind of be a big weenie about it. But when they're older, they're like 23 sitting on your couch and you're watching something.
Starting point is 00:18:32 And suddenly there's a scene. You just kind of go, oh, yeah, that's pretty much it. And now, if somebody wants to write in and tell me, oh, Scott, you're starting. so uppity tight. Here at our house, me and my adult children, we watch pornography together. I feel like the only way to really teach them about pornography is to... That's right. Watch it with them. That's how parents, a true parent does it.
Starting point is 00:18:59 Watch backdoor number eight with your daughter. Oh, good Lord. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that. All right. Well, that's fantastic. Let's play a game.
Starting point is 00:19:08 Do you want to play a game? Yes, let's do that. I want to. want to play one. Problem is, I forgot to open the thing I need to do that. So let's do that. Google. Shoot, I thought I had this up.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Sorry, everyone. Just hold on to your butts. Turns out I was ill-prepared. Oh, there we go. Google voice. All right. Oh, don't play that. All right.
Starting point is 00:19:30 Now, I got to make sure that Chrome is being heard. Yes, it is. All right. So we got that going for us, which is nice. Now I just got a call done away. And then wait for a phone call. People were asking, how to with John Wilson on HBO Max? Oh, how to.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Okay. How to with John Wilson. You know, DIYs or DYIs. No, you had it right. DIYs. Do it yourself. Wait. Do yourself it.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Yeah, you're right. It's DIY. You're thinking about FYI, which is your information. That's exactly what I was thinking of. Yeah. And that's dumb that I was doing that. All right. I've done away incoming.
Starting point is 00:20:10 And we'll dive. into this pool, feet first here. Here we go. I called him, okay. Hey everybody, welcome back to Babel Royale, or in this case today. We're playing a little bit of the, what do we call it? Tad Pooley, Few. Tad Pooley Few.
Starting point is 00:20:32 Anyway, we're going to play that. We got Brian Dunaway with us, who joins us all the way from South Carolina, as he always does on Mondays and Wednesdays. Hello, Brian. Oh, hi, Scott. Brian. Oh, hi. Hi. How are you guys doing today? Man, can I even tell you how great we're doing? We're doing great. Please tell me that you're doing great and not just making up BS. I think we're doing great. I'm a little, excellent, excellent. I'm a little off my time. Do you guys ever get,
Starting point is 00:20:57 you guys ever get it when you leave out? Okay, so on the show, yeah, I have to bring up my energy level like a lot. Yeah. Because I don't just walk around acting like the fool that I do on the show, right? So then when I leave my facilities, my office, and I'm all like, you know, I'm exhausted, I'm walking outside, and you're like, why are all so happy in there? And come I hear you're so sad. I'm like, I'm not sad. I'm just tired. Just tired. You know, it wears you out. I'm just tired. If anyone, whenever anyone says, what's it like doing a show every day? Right. And my answer is, well, there's, there's, there's all the joyful answers. There's lots of reasons why to love it. It's a blast. I love doing the show. Love it. I love it. It's one of the greatest things I ever decided to ever want to be involved with. Love it. However, there is no denying that it is draining, mentally draining.
Starting point is 00:21:47 So by the time this thing's over, sometimes I look at the rest of my day and go, oh, F you, right off. Yeah, two or three hours in a row of being on. Yeah, it's hard. It's exhausting. Yeah, it's hard. Retail workers know what I'm talking about because you don't have to be like a podcast. A retail workers know what I'm talking about. Yeah, they know.
Starting point is 00:22:07 When you're in the public eye and you're out there on the floor, you know, servicing the customers and you have to be on point for eight hours. Yeah. You're exhausting when you go. Servicing those customers, if you know what I'm saying. No, that's totally true. But I've been off for a couple of days. So this is a real Brian.
Starting point is 00:22:24 Brian's got energy. Let's do this. Oh, yeah. Well, let's do this. Let's get this caller on the line and find out what that's going on. Thanks for being so patient. Who's this? This is the OB1 in the chat.

Kicked him in the lava or whatever we did. Kiss my lava. Anyway, it's good to have you here. Welcome to the show. We're going to try to win you some prizes and have some fun while we're at it. Brian, do you want to explain how this works? That's right, Scott. It's time to play the Tadpoolie feud. I don't have the music queued up. I've surveyed the Tadpool on some nerdy topics, and Scott and Brian will have to predict the answers that they gave us. It's Scott. and Brian's job to see how many of those answers they can guess. Obi-Wan

Starting point is 00:26:33 or hands on wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait We asked the tadpool, who is the funniest Saturday Night Live cast member of all time? All right, Brian Dunaway buzzed in. What's your answer? Will Ferrell. Show me Will Ferrell. Number two.
Starting point is 00:26:53 Number two on the board. There's one answer that can beat it, Scott. Show me Chris Farley. Oh. Show me Chris Farley. Yeah. God, you've got the option to pass or play. Okay, I'm going to stop being an idiot, and I'm going to pass this time.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Because I've screwed this up a lot lately, so I'm passing. I want destiny in my own hands. Nope, give it, Brian. Brian, you're going to be playing. Let's see, do I do this? Okay, look at that. Okay. Even keep scoring, not like these points matter.
Starting point is 00:27:33 Um, all right, Brian, uh, tell me who else, like, we got the top two covered. What other people did the tadpoles say were the funniest SNL of cats in this all time. Now, Will Ferrell was one of my favorites, but not necessarily I didn't think it's the funniest, but I was trying to think what the Deadpool would think and trying to migrate in that area. So I'm going to say that they find, uh, jeez, man. Keenan Thompson Generation I mean come on
Starting point is 00:28:05 That's a big Wide swath It is And he's been on forever Possibility right All right Show me Kenan Thompson Oh
Starting point is 00:28:17 Man That's a bummer Well you got one of those People said him but not didn't didn't Not enough Yeah All right Well let's let's put our second tester
Starting point is 00:28:27 And see What kind of Tadpoolery have here. If you think Adam Sandler is the funniest, maybe that's the direction. These people aren't with it. Show me Adam Sandler.
Starting point is 00:28:41 Oh my gosh. No, really? Not the tadpool, dude. Oh, my God. I don't even know who the tadpool is anymore. Just outside the top 10 is Adam Sandler. Yeah. All right. This is your chance to steal. Scott and Obi-1. You can work together. It's Obi-1 or
Starting point is 00:28:57 Obi-1. Obi-1, right? OB-1? Obi-1. Okay, cool. You guys can work together to try and come up with any of the other eight answers on the board. Good Lord. All right. My, my, I think we've already got two strikes. This is really working out, Will for Scott. Obi-1, I'm thinking like, uh, but I, oh, wow. Hey, shut up. I forgot when we have two strikes. I forget about that. Yeah, I only get two. Uh, what would you say? Because I mean, Eddie Murphy hops to my head, but that's also kind of old school. So I don't know if that would even hit or not. I'm not being on the S&L, and I don't know their names, but the guy who played Zat Brannigan.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Oh, uh, or he was going to play Zatrigan. You know what? Phil Hartman's a good answer. Let's go Phil Herman. All right. Show me Phil Hartman for the game. Yeah. Okay. So is dead S&L members that are popular? Little Farrell's not dead. Practically dead. He's dead to me. He's great. He's what he is.
Starting point is 00:29:56 All right. John Belushi's got to be up here. So hold on. second. Let me think real quick. I want to think of like original cast members to see if any of them made it. So did like Bill Murray on there? Oh,
Starting point is 00:30:10 oh, see, I was totally off on the tad pool. Yeah, okay, how about Dan Aykroyd? See in there? Oh, look at this. Oh, the tad pool is a lot older than I thought. Yeah. They are. We found out the other day we did some averages. They're like 35
Starting point is 00:30:25 to 45 average or something. Okay. That's why they mature and nice and not dicks. They're not 20-year-old trolls. That's what's going on. Sorry, 20-year-olds. Let's go through the rest of these. Number five. Eddie Murphy.
Starting point is 00:30:41 You said Eddie Murphy. I love how Brian's invoking that kind of audience reaction. That audience murder. Let's do it together. Okay, ready? Show me number seven. John Muloochy. Oh, of course.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Yeah. Number eight. Dana Carvey. Everyone's why I get that question mark of the audience. Dana Carvey. Number nine. Tina Faye. Wait, I want to guess number 10.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Okay. Will Forte. Will Forte, I'm amazed. Nobody. What? And I'm really surprised because Bill Foyter. Bill Hater was number 11. How is that?
Starting point is 00:31:27 That's a crime. Just outside. Totally crime. That's a crime. Here's your number 10. Kay, that's a good pick. She is great. She's super versatile.
Starting point is 00:31:38 She's hilarious. Yeah, that number of voices. But Bill Hader, Adam Sandler, Kristen Wigg, Gilder Randner, Mike Myers, Norm MacDonald, all, like, just out of the contention in the top 10 there. So just as a personal preference, favorites, our own favorites, without the tadpool. Just our own favorite. Oh, yeah. Phil Hartman, when I, when I filled out the survey as a test to make sure it was working and also to put, you know, to get one vote in there, Phil Hartman was my pick. He would have probably been my pick as well.
Starting point is 00:32:10 I mean, that guy, I don't know what it was about Phil Hartman, but he just seemed like a singular voice in that show. Just brilliant, brilliant wit. But there's so many, there's too many. I love Norma. I love everyone. So I've got a couple of personal favorites that just, or maybe not really ring really high for a lot of people. but like Andy Samburg. I thought he was hilarious the whole time.
Starting point is 00:32:32 He was on S&L. Again, I'm surprised with Brooklyn 9-9 and how great he is. I was surprised he didn't rank higher. I mean, there just are some great names in this list. John Belushi is good, but I feel like Bill Hader probably should have been in the John Belushi spot on this list. Yeah, where's, where's Randy Quaid? Where's, uh, oh my God, he's in Canada right now.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Randy Quaid. We've got Rachel Dratch, Chevy Chase, Keenan Thompson, Billy Tracy Morgan was like dominated for like years. I love Tracy Morgan. We only had one person say Tracy Morgan. Sarah Silverman, Maya Rudolph, Martin Short, Kevin Nealyn, Julie Dreyfuss, John Mullaney. I'm trying to find a way to find Kyle Mooney funny. He's, he plays a straight man too often for me. I think, you know what you need to be hilarious, but he's a little too straight. It's hard to go. wait a minute who said Malini who said John Malaney John Malaney can't be on there
Starting point is 00:33:26 he was a writer John he was a writer but he was also he also appeared a couple of skits right did he? Wait a minute I thought the whole deal was that he wrote and then everyone thought he'd be on
Starting point is 00:33:37 but then he left and then he got huge as a stand-up and then he came back to host and that was the big joke is that he skipped over being in the past I never was a cast member maybe I'm thinking of just all the times that he was that he hosted He's definitely hosted a lot lately, anyway.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Norm MacDonald was on there. You bet he was Baton 2.16. He's great. We all love Norm. Oh, yeah, Norm is in the list. Norm, five people. He's the, I love Tor me, and Norm MacDonald, but he is just, he's just a train wreck waiting to happen.
Starting point is 00:34:09 Oh, lately? Yeah, he's kind of a mess lately. But people also put John Candy, Richard Pryor, and Jim Carrey, Steve Martin on this list, none of whom. No, Steve Martin, guest. They were hosts, but they were never... They were hosts, but they were never...
Starting point is 00:34:24 Well, Jim Carrey did a whole bunch of appearances of this past year, but he wasn't really a host. But he wasn't really a... It wasn't a guest member. He was a special guest. Right, right. Yeah. Well, that's a fun topic. I enjoyed the hell out of that. But here's what I know for sure. I have to play this. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Obi-W-W-W-B-W. Oh, and to stave off some emails, we know that Phil Hartman didn't end up voicing Zabran again. He was supposed to, but he died just before that all happened. So they gave it to Billy West. It was already on the thing doing a bunch of choices. I will always, even though I know it's not Phil Hartman, I will always think that that's Phil Hartman. Like, not Mandela Effect, but it'll always be in my head.
Starting point is 00:35:00 He was meant to play that role. He read it like Phil Hartman, right? Yeah, he was meant to be that guy. Billy West is amazing voice actor. But he was meant to be that role. He should have been that role and freaking F his crazy wife for shooting him, because he sucks. She sucks, I mean.
Starting point is 00:35:13 All right. Uh, there you go. Congratulations. Now, here's what you got to do to collect your win-ins, to get your Zwee games. Okay. You've got to send Brian an email. That's Coverville at gmail.com, and he'll hook you up. How does that feel as a Jedi master and listener of the show?
Starting point is 00:35:30 Feels great. Oh, that's great, man. Do that. All my best to you, Anakin, and the rest. There on Gilligan's eye and aisle. Yeah. Brian, done away you did it. Going on in the chat room about Steve Martin ever being a cast member.
Starting point is 00:35:43 He was never a cast member. He was one of the first hosts, but he was never a cast member. Yeah, and he was on there a lot doing that wild and crazy guy thing. He would do that sometimes out of nowhere, but it's a bit like saying, it's like saying Alec Baldwin, he's not a cast member, but he'll come and do Trump, right? Like, and host a lot. So it's, Steve Martin, he is. Basically, John Goodman, Steve Martin, Alec Baldwin, they live close enough to the studios
Starting point is 00:36:11 that when somebody bails halfway through their week, they can come in and fill in the spot. That's right. Speaking of bailing, there's no bailing happening. There'll be a boop show with me and Brian Dunaway. We're going to talk about what cool indie games we played over the weekend, and that'll be fun. So check us out then. And, of course, we just put up a new film sack for Almost Famous. A very good movie.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Don't go into that thinking we're just going to rip on it. We liked it a lot. And sometimes we get those movies on film sacks. I go check that out as well. Brian Dunaway, anything else you want to say? Absolutely check out my Twitch channel at twitch.tv. forward slash Brian Dunaway. I'll be playing unto the end on
Starting point is 00:36:50 the Xbox Game Pass. It's the game I'm reviewing this week on the Boob Show. I'll be doing that later today. What time do you? Or what time did you say? You said. Usually I will do it around 5.30 p.m. Eastern Time. 3.30 Mountain, the only time is on that doesn't matter. Oh,
Starting point is 00:37:06 then's fighting words. Best thing to do is just subscribe to Brian's channel so that you get notified whenever he goes live. Damn straight. Bye-bye. All right. well there you have it proof of proof that
Starting point is 00:37:20 I love the new thing it worked great yeah yeah it's it's it's all in one so now I don't need to have a fair ago the soundboard thing open and the uh the app and this and that it's like uh yeah all in one little piece of work there very nicely done who's it who who did it again
Starting point is 00:37:39 Alcabab al Kee B-O-B Alcabab man Alcab and he's listening so he's hearing me rave about how how grateful I am. And also grateful to shoot and I don't have his name in front of me, the person who came up with another, like an alternative one, because he didn't know that somebody was in the process of working on this. But thank you for putting that together.
Starting point is 00:38:02 That's what we have in the cat. Now we just need some orange and red color scheme from the actual family feud to CSS our way in there. Then we're set. By the way, Baton 216 in the chat keeps asking, I've seen Yellowstone. I have, and I really like it. I mean, that's probably a shock to people who know my undone love for Kevin Costner Western thing that you like? Yeah, I know. It's really a mind-blower that I'm into it.
Starting point is 00:38:31 But, yeah, he can kind of do no wrong. So anyway, there's that. Hey, also, just real quick, people keep asking what's wrong with me. I have like some kind of cyst going. It's great. Oh, I see that. Ew. Yeah, it's real fun.
Starting point is 00:38:44 I've been doing what. everyone says to do, it's just, you know, a hot rag on it every night and it's supposed to kill it eventually, but it's just driving me crazy. I can see it, Brian, in my vision. I know. I don't like it. It's like a little, a little broke-it-out little mountain right here.
Starting point is 00:39:01 Yeah, I put a little sticky note over the Zoom screen, so I don't have to look at it anymore. I don't know what happened. It's so stupid. Doctor said that these are not, these aren't poopie, I asked. He says that they... Did you ask the doctor? Yeah, because it's not...
Starting point is 00:39:18 Can I have gotten this from poop in my eye? He told me it's not conjunctivitis, which is the poop in your eye thing. He says this is basically an oil duct in my eyelid that got clogged, and I have a tendency to have that happen over here for some reason. So I got to figure out what to do to try to prevent it. Anyway, good stuff, good times. Let's move on with a quick bit of news. This is the info we've been waiting for.

Starting point is 00:40:24 And we'll see you in a couple weeks with brand new content. Yes. New season begins now. Yes. Okay, let's look at the news. And thank you to everybody who might be listening here who applied to be a contestant. I'll reach out to them. Have they all heard, all 12 know, that they're in?
Starting point is 00:40:44 in or no? Yes, the 12 who got in know that they got in but the people who didn't I still need to reach out an email everybody and say sorry you didn't get in this time. It's the part you just hate to do.
Starting point is 00:40:55 It is. There's so many parts of this. I hate the kicking off of people and I hate the I don't like it. I want everyone to be in. You know what? This season, I'm going to say
Starting point is 00:41:06 it's my favorite part. Now we're coming in my favorite part of the show where I kick one of you Yahoo's off. Yeah, get the hell out. All right, here's a story about an Uber, because that's still a thing. You can still get Uber rides in places.
Starting point is 00:41:17 You totally can still get Uber's, yeah. Yeah. I mean, Brian's not running Lyft runs anymore. Ooh, still have a sticker in my window. Yeah. Here are people waiting around your cars if that's supposed to be their ride or anything. Well, if I see a pretty lady standing on the side of the road, I roll down the window and say, did you call a lift?
Starting point is 00:41:35 Ooh. Is your name Ashley? Very nice. Oh, this is too funny. I just got a text about this. So I had a tweet that went semi-viral. I didn't mean it to, but... Is this the one that was in that TikTok video?
Starting point is 00:41:50 No, that's another one. That's a different one. The one that went kind of semi-viral yesterday, which surprised me is... Maybe it shouldn't surprise me, but it struck me that the dude who, the one cop in the capital, that seemed now based on the video footage, seem to know that if they go down that hall, that's the door to the chamber, that's bad. I need to pull them this direction. And it's just him, right?
Starting point is 00:42:15 There's not like a whole swath of cops right there. It's just him. And he figures out a way to get the tip of the angry spear to go that direction, which probably gave just enough time for them to get out of there, which means who knows, we don't know for sure. But I think that probably, he probably saved a tunnel lives, is my thinking. Because people came in there with handcuffs and weapons and made napalm and all that.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Angry mob situation. It was pretty bad. So that was cool. So I said, I said, this is what Warcraft players call kiting the trash. Which is what it is.
Starting point is 00:42:54 It's very good. Anyway, I just heard from my uncle who's like, dude, you got called out on a something for a thing. It's my personal account. Claire Gack, open up your Twitter to Scott Johnson. That's where I put it. All right. Here's your news here about this Uber here.
Starting point is 00:43:11 Uber. We were talking to Uber. That's right. Two men caught in a stolen Uber, which is just a stolen car then, right? Well, sure. Yes. I mean, it's like if someone stole your car, Brian, you don't go, someone stole my Uber. No, but it's, it's, it's, um, it just adds the fact that it was, uh, it was hijacked while it was on the job. Like you could say, well, yeah, I stole a taxi. It's still a car, but it was on the job when it got stolen. Yeah. I guess that makes sense. You'd still count it, even though it's this gig economy kind of weirdness. Yeah, I'd say somebody stole my car, for sure. I wouldn't say somebody stole my lift. Yeah, you'd say, dude, where's my car? That's what you'd say.
Starting point is 00:43:51 I'd say, dude, where's my car? What's my tattoo saying? Sweet. What's mine saying? That movie is so dumb. It really is. But I kind of enjoy it if I'm not, if I'm being honest. Anyway, in the news. And we know Sean William Scott likes to rub you down with butter. Please continue on with the news story. Yeah, well, Frasier Crane pulls little hairs out of my body. What the hell is wrong with my dreams?
Starting point is 00:44:13 All right. Here's the deal. Toronto police. They ran into a bit of a weird one, and one of the most bizarre buss of late two men were caught stealing. They were caught stealing. Once, when I was five. When they were, sorry, from a grocer and just not any old food staple, but a whole bunch of meat specifically, for some reason. They had a ton of meat.
Starting point is 00:44:35 And they had it in a suitcase. So they stole this Uber with a suitcase full of meat. When confronted by a staffer on the scene Well, I mean, I don't know if they thought that far ahead, but it says here The perpetrators entered the store near Keel and Dundas, whatever that is, some street thing. In December, I began taking neat products and placing them into a suitcase they brought with them. When confronted by a staffer on the scene, one member of the duo began wielding a knife and making threats after which they were able to quickly flee to the airport perhaps with an array of steaks and pork chops in hand.
Starting point is 00:45:09 Well, in their suitcase. Imagine TSA is going to let you through with a suitcase full of meat. I don't know. I guess it's not a liquid. Oh, I mean, what would they do, though? Let's just imagine this scenario. They'd say, what do you do? This is not refrigerated, so this is going to stink up the cabin.
Starting point is 00:45:28 No, I don't know. And you don't just sneak onto a plane. Like, you have to show them. I can take jerky onto a plane, but I don't think I could take just raw meat in a suitcase. That reminds me. I got jerky from, uh, I forgot his name. From Morrow Prime?
Starting point is 00:45:44 Yeah. I got a little packet of follow-up jerky. Oh, good. I haven't gotten mine yet, but I'm sure it's coming. It wasn't, I think it's, I haven't opened it yet, but I think it's just whatever we said our favor was, right? I think that's what he did. Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 00:45:59 Yeah. Anyway, I want to confront, or see, their getaway vehicle of choice was a, an Uber. Says, thankfully, to the TPS hold-up squad. I don't know what that is. They were able to identify one of the thieves who was also apparently behind a number of other similar crimes in the area. They need to put a cover on their reports, but other than that. I agree.
Starting point is 00:46:21 It says the other suspect remains at large. Oh, really? Be on the lookout for a guy carrying Kool-Aid in a tote bag. Yep. He's probably got the meat sweats. You'll recognize him on site. A lot of meat the other day. Lots of meat.
Starting point is 00:46:37 In other news, according to the Daily Beast, a woman's body discovered. that sparked a police search turned out to be a large potato. Yeah, it wasn't about, well, it's good. It wasn't a body. We don't care about potatoes. No, but I feel bad for the woman who people could see a potato and think that's part of her body. Well, have you seen Artie Lang's nose? I would like to point.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Point that out. An English dog walker got the shock of her life Tuesday when she stumbled across what appear to be a human foot protruding from the dirt of a countryside area. Okay. Before you go any further, is she an English person who's a dog walker, or is it a person who only walks English dogs? That's a terrible sentence. An English dog walker.
Starting point is 00:47:23 I guess there's no hyphen, so we can't put... You know what? You're right to question it. It's not clear. I only walk English dog. I guess that would be an English dog walker who walks English dogs. And I guess it's not a... An English English dog walker.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Yeah, but the redundancy is at least descriptive and would have been better. I only walk staff at shiatorious. Take that, Australia. Take that. Where was I? Oh, I know you're fine. A foot protruding through the dirt. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 00:48:01 They thought they had a major crime scene. So they treated it as such. But after a while, someone figured out it was just a potato growing next to a mushroom. that's a bummer um let's see is there a photo of this there probably is this link does not seem to work oh yeah it's off on mine too what happened daily beast you guys have a bit of it oh no oh yeah error 502 bad gateway
Starting point is 00:48:25 I imagine if I look for uh body potato mushroom oh oh safe search oh no oh no for some reason this article is just not on their site anymore it was there yesterday yeah it's funny Google returns two Daily Beast links neither of which work but there is a
Starting point is 00:48:44 nope this one Reddit seems to go to the same garbagey link huh uh
Starting point is 00:48:52 Claire has a has a link Claire Gack Claire Gack has a link Let's take a look there Human foot in Gates Headfield turns out to be potato
Starting point is 00:49:02 Oh there's the exact photo I saw yesterday and they just didn't They just took it off the Daily Beach So look at that Yeah looks like a little I mean, I guess if I saw that, I might, it looks a little fleshy, but I don't know. I think I'd have taken a closer look before I called the cops. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:18 You know? I mean, you've got to be, if you look at that and you say, that's a foot, you've got to be looking for a foot. Yeah. You know, it's, it's, uh, yeah, you would have to say to me, hey, there's a foot over here. And at first I might go, oh, I guess I can see. Oh, no, wait a minute. That's a damn potato. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:49:36 So I'd say the person who decides. discovered it should be a person of interest because they're, you know, they're looking for a flip. Yeah. What kind of English, English dog walker is she? Gee. She's terrible at her job. All right.
Starting point is 00:49:49 We're going to take a break. When we come back, some time with our friends, Bill and Stephen. So that's all coming up in a second. Before that, though, a break of sorts. And it's with music. And Brian brought it. Brian, what is it? How about Philly?
Starting point is 00:50:02 Let's go to Philly for a group called Soraya. They've got a brand new seven-inch single. The B side of which is a cover of Aerosmith's Angel featuring Jesse Wagner on vocals, but side one, it's a brand new single. It's called Tight Lipped. This rocks.

Just this week, she was quoted as saying. Enough of this. This is horse piss. Yeah, you could hear it. You could see it.
Starting point is 00:54:53 She's pretty worn out too, probably. I love Naja. Yeah, she's amazing. She's the great discovery for this show for me. Like everybody, I love everyone. They're all amazing. Nandor is so great freaking Colin Robinson, can do no wrong. I love everyone, but she was the one. So when the show started, I went, oh, are we going to have, like, it's just going to be like a naggy kind of vampire wife.
Starting point is 00:55:17 This is a weird thing to, okay. I mean, I had, like, I had built in distrust of how they were going to shake things up. And she completely blew my mind. She's the, she's the best new thing about it. I love her. Love her. I have a huge crush on her now. That's a problem. I have a problem. All right. Don't tell my wife. Just kidding. She knows I like. Understandable. All right. We're going to... What are we doing now? Oh, yeah, Bill.
Starting point is 00:55:43 Bill. We're going to talk to Bill. Okay. All right. All right. Let's talk to Bill. I'll just keep saying it until I click it. There we go.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Okay. He's on his way in. And when he gets here, we're going to talk about stuff. So here's this right here. Your bat caves open there, Bill. Hey, everybody. Welcome Bill to the program.
Starting point is 00:56:00 He is Bill Durant of Punished Props.com and lives in Seattle where he does cool stuff. He makes things. And he comes on here and gives great advice to, young burgeoning makers, their own selves. Bill, welcome back to the show. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning to you. We haven't talked to you in a whole week.
Starting point is 00:56:17 How have you been? Well, it's been a week, huh? Yeah, sure has. Sure has. I can't believe we're not even to Wednesday yet. It's not even a full week from an amazing. A very important point in the last week, we're not even a week from yet. Which is really weird to think about.
Starting point is 00:56:34 But we missed you. and we're glad you're here now. What do you bring today? What do you got in your basket of goodies? Yeah. Well, we spent last week working on a fun new project. And we finished it. We've got a new video up on our website at punish props.com and on our YouTube channel.
Starting point is 00:56:51 So about a year ago, I put together a resin kit of the Samaritan Revolver from Hellboy. It was a kit. My buddy Harrison over at Open Props put together is a really cool kit. It looks awesome. It's all plastic resin. And, of course, this past summer, Adam Savage had to go and make one out of aluminum from scratch. Just to show everybody up. Just to shame me.
Starting point is 00:57:17 Of course. Now, I'm not going to make sure you take that personally, because I'm sure. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Why not? So I'm not going to make my, I'm not, excuse me, starting over, not going to make my own from metal, my own gun anyway. I really like the, the gun that I have. However, the bullets, I thought that would be a fun challenge to try and make a replica of those big honkin 22mm bullets that he's got using brass and aluminum. It was a good excuse for me to get a little practice on my lathe.
Starting point is 00:57:52 So I have a couple of laves. I have a little woodworking lathe. And then I have a little metal working lathe. And, well, I got it used. It's the smallest, cheapest, wimpiest lathe you can buy. But it did the trick. It definitely worked. I had to do things a little bit differently than Adam did.
Starting point is 00:58:15 He made some bullets on his big honkin South Bend lane. I had to do mine a little differently. The tooling for my lathe is a little different. And also it just doesn't have the horsepower to hog through material like he does. But I made it work. And I'm really proud of how I figured out, especially how to make the bullets. They have that nice rounded profile. on them, and I figured out a pretty good way
Starting point is 00:58:38 do that on my wimpy lathe, and it totally works. I'm pretty proud of that. Nice. By the way, the ones you had in there before, I just wanted to bring this up real quick. Is it magnets that are holding that tip and then creating the connection that makes the LED go off? Is that what's happening there?
Starting point is 00:58:56 Yeah, that's exactly what's going on. So the ones that I currently have for the resin gun, the bullets and the casings are all plastic. And I hollowed out the casing so I could fit a battery and a little switch in there that I made using magnets. So the bullet, the clear bullet, has a couple of magnets on it as well. And when you turn it, they swap which ones are connected. And it turns on a green LED inside of there and makes the bullets light up green, which looks really cool.
Starting point is 00:59:25 That is really cool. Wow. So some of the Hellboy has a bunch of different type of ammunition. So some of those bullets glow green. And then the ones that I made out of metal, the bullets are made from aluminum. So they're just a solid metal sludge. It's like silver for the for the, uh, werewolves sort of thing. Yeah, we can call it silver.
Starting point is 00:59:44 Yeah, sure. Well, I wonder how much that amount of silver would cost. Oh my gosh, I don't want to think. Well, I guess you can melt down some forks or something, you know, do it that way. That's true. Yeah. That rod of aluminum that I used was about $7 worth of aluminum. And, uh, and I hung to, uh, cut about two inches off for the bullets.
Starting point is 01:00:01 So that's like less than a dollar worth of aluminum, probably a lot more in silk, I would guess. I didn't know you could buy aluminum just anywhere in a rod form. Oh, yeah. Online metals.com, that's where I go. They're actually local to Seattle, which is pretty cool. But yeah, the aluminum's super cheap. Brass, not as much.
Starting point is 01:00:21 The similar amount of brass costs about 40 bucks a little bit more. Oh, my gosh. That's a lot. I mean, if you're making a single replica, no big deal, like you make the investment but if you're mass producing you're making a bunch of brass bullets pretty expensive prospect
Starting point is 01:00:36 yeah especially when you consider that most of the metal is removed and thrown away yeah well that's that I'm looking at this metal side they got everything man oh yeah that's a playground
Starting point is 01:00:50 it's so good you could do copper aluminum bronze tool steel cold rolled steel hot rolled steel yeah hot roll oh yeah baby anyway sorry continue um so anyway made the bullet out of aluminum made the casing out of brass now i haven't worked with brass very much but it's really neat to work with um i turned it on the lathe
Starting point is 01:01:14 uh it my my lathe had no problem with the brass um i'm gonna it's weird i don't i don't have experience with a lot of different metals but now i'm starting to get sort of getting to know them yeah and i'm like ooh i like brass i think i would like to try and make more things out of brass. Of course, it's the expensive one. Why is it so expensive? Rarity or what? What's the deal there? Got me, man. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:01:39 I don't know it that well yet. I always thought of brass is like kind of not throwaway metal, but you know, like 10 or whatever. It's just common and, you know. It's like it looks gold like gold, but it's a lot cheaper than gold. Yeah. It feels like it should be really cheap. And it's resonant for things like instruments and, you know, trombones and stuff like that. So I totally, I just figured that that was a simple, easy to get metal.
Starting point is 01:02:03 But wait, it sounds like it's not. Well, it's easy to get, just a little pricey. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So anyway, I made it on the lathe, but on the back of the bullet, there is text. It says BPRD for the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense. Nice. It says 22 millimeters, and I think it says D-T.
Starting point is 01:02:22 I don't know what that stands for. But I added that to the back of the metal casing. using acid, which is so much fun. Oh, wait, you weren't on acid while you did it. You're saying you used acid to do it. Okay. I mean, both. No, I don't judge.
Starting point is 01:02:40 Don't do acid and work on with acid, everybody. I don't throw tall album using acid. Yeah, exactly. So I made a stencil for the text using my vinyl cutter. Vinyl will resist the acid that I used. Oh, that's so. that's so cool then because basically you just made a like a stencil that like an airbrush kind of stencil yeah instead of carving it in you did the reverse basically that's cool so the yeah so the acid a little bit of acid was dumped on the back of it I put a piece of electrical tape around it to make a little cup for the acid to stay in there it had to sit on the on there for about 30 minutes and I would agitate it with a brush every once in a while but that acid choose away the text area making a depression where the text was.
Starting point is 01:03:31 And it's really sharp. Like, it looked really, really good. Yeah. I'm super happy with how that turned out. That's awesome. I love how the... I'm looking at you making a blister pack to put this on, which is fantastic. So that was the original inspiration, the thing I wanted to make.
Starting point is 01:03:48 So in the movie Hellboy, near the beginning, when they show up in their trash truck, right? They back up to the building. that they're going to go investigate and they bring out this giant looks like a huge music road case and on the inside are a bunch of this bunch of ammo and the bullets are all individually packaged
Starting point is 01:04:09 in little blister bags so I made one of those two and it tickles me so much it makes me so happy and I love your vacuum form like that is a total custom made vacuum form machine that's great yeah it's this tiny one I got a
Starting point is 01:04:25 used toaster oven from the secondhand store for like $8 so that's my heat source we had a little frame and a little platinum and I got a vacuum hooked up to it and it's great for vacuum forming most of the things you need most of the tiny little things you need we have a video on that one of course how to make one of those yourself but I made a little backer card on the on the computer drew up all the graphics there and printed that out and stuck it to some cardboard and then I vacuum formed a little sheet of peteG to go over the bullet to make a little blister pack and glued it on and it And it's so legit.
Starting point is 01:04:59 So good looking. That's really cool. Gosh, dang it. Do you ever want to now, okay, so you're going to make a whole, a whole magazine full of bullets? I don't want to go hang this up at the Walmart and then just like wait in that aisle and see it. Put a price tag on it. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:18 Wow, making your own blister packs. That's awesome. It is super fun. I made a second bullet too. there's a uh on the back of the bullet there is a um a primer i guess and uh for the first one i just sort of carved that in on the lathe to make um a couple little circles but i made another one where i made that part out of aluminum so it's a different color as well so i don't with that i really enjoyed i mean i ended i finished it and while britt was editing the video i was like well
Starting point is 01:05:46 the one i finished is in a blister pack i can't play with it anymore so i made a second one yeah you got to do that yeah you got to have one pull it out just the just a fidget with it because it's metal and it's heavy and it feels cool give a worry it'll look so real that people just think oh you bought a thing you know what I mean like you just bought this blister pack that's kind of the ultimate compliment isn't it yeah I guess it is but it is like you know you do have to remind him no I made this this is like I didn't pick this up from a prop a prop company I am the prop yeah I am the prop company I made this thing that's
Starting point is 01:06:18 exactly right that that not that's a problem but like it reminds me of like when you know certain special effects artists these days every show has special effects now so if you're doing episodes of better call sol there are visual effects being integrated that you're not even aware of whether it's bullet pock marks that come out of nowhere that weren't really shot or whatever it may be the world has something tweaked in it and it's so subtle you never know and they're so good at it now that no one ever knows that you did it so it's just like well every every show has set extensions Like a show where two characters are having a conversation on the street The background is fake the background is green screen
Starting point is 01:06:58 Like you know you wouldn't even know though it looks so good But almost every single show will do that They'll just extend a set to make it look bigger Yeah almost all of them like just boring dramas where people are at a park bench talking The sky behind them got changed or the buildings that are there aren't really there or whatever And it's never pointed out it's never meant to be fantastical and as a result, those effects people just, it's got to be the weirdest job because you're doing some of the coolest work ever, and the goal is to convince people that something's not even
Starting point is 01:07:29 happening. But then you just get no credit. You know what I mean? Like, because no one noticed you. That's the irony, too. The very best visual effects are the ones that you don't notice. Yeah. Like, if you notice that it's a visual effects, it's not very good. Yeah. Right. When you say, oh, they have a cave troll and you're about to watch a major CGI thing that, you know, Peter Jackson and the people down in New Zealand put together and it's amazing and all that and it's great. But then if you watch an episode of Game of Thrones and you just didn't know they cut out the city that's a modern city behind that mountain, you just never know. I don't know. It's weird.
Starting point is 01:08:04 It's ironic or something like rain on your wedding day. All right. Just like that. What's ironic is in that scene, they actually used a real Cape Troll. Yeah. They went the full mile. That's funny, right? a lot for mile.
Starting point is 01:08:16 Yeah, that's what's funny. Genuine, Game Troll. Yeah. They got a cave troll. They work for scale. It's really, they're actually really cheap to hire. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:24 Oh, yeah. Do they have a union or no? They're not part of it or? Of course. Okay. They got to have sad cards. That's what Saramon was promising them. Oh, well, now it all makes sense.
Starting point is 01:08:36 Bill, this looks great. People can check out this video at Pundishprops.com. Of course, the YouTube channel, all of it's there. I recommend it. I'm watching it here myself and totally tickled by this particular project. And many more just like it. So go check it out. Do you have a bonus piece of linkage for us this week?
Starting point is 01:08:52 Do I ever? So you guys know I love toys and toy photography. A photographer I follow, he goes by the name Sir Dork on Instagram. And his name is Jared Middleton on YouTube. He started doing tutorials for his camera photography. So he put out a video that is Toy Photography Camera Settings. And it's really, really good. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:13 And he has a bunch more that are worth checking out. I'm going to dive through a lot of these. I love that stuff. I think you've talked about him before, but maybe. Or someone like this that does like that. Yeah, I follow quite a few of these guys that do toy photography, and I am into it. I've got a book of Star Wars action figures that are posed and put into scenes like this. And I wonder if this is the guy who does that or if that's somebody else.
Starting point is 01:09:39 It could be one of them, yeah. Yeah. That's really. I love that stuff. too. That's so cool. Look at all that. See, this is I've got a bunch of miniatures that I've painted the Marvel Crisis Protocol miniatures
Starting point is 01:09:51 and I need to actually need to like do some decent photos of them. Not just iPhone photos in front of the stack of paints in the background. Yeah. Something decent. Get some get some firecrackers and stuff.
Starting point is 01:10:05 Right, exactly. Yeah. Bad ass. When I was 12 this would be my obsession. This is all I would want to do. Oh my gosh, dude, that's so cool. All right, as always, good stuff all around. Everyone check all this stuff out. Bill Doran, PunishProps.com,
Starting point is 01:10:21 Jim Beard on Twitter. Bill, have a fantastic week. Looking forward to it. Bye. Ignore the picture of the mushed-up nose. I'm going to delete it. Thank you for now putting that into two of our chats. I'm going to go ahead and delete that, I think.
Starting point is 01:10:39 Thank you. Thank you very much. All right. Stephen time. Yes. If you thought Bill was somebody, just won't tell you see another guy. That's right.
Starting point is 01:10:50 We have two somebody's on this show today. That's right. They both count. Stephen. From the halls and walls of Hayes, Kansas comes one, Stephen Schleiker from major spoilers. com who joins us on Mondays, and we talk about the nerdier things in life, often comic book related, but sometimes not. In fact, today we're going to go a little bit different.
Starting point is 01:11:12 Stephen, welcome back to the show. show. Hello, Scott. Hello, Brian. Hi. How is your second week of the year? Going good. Yeah? Sure. Let's say good. Let's say good. It's funny because you can look at the stats of your web page browsers, et cetera, and it's funny. I can look at the stock market and Wednesday afternoon, huge dump. I can look at the stats for my website. Huge dump. Oh, somewhere around the exact same time. so yeah I have a feeling that not a lot has gone on in the last week in the world of comic books at least no probably so although some probably some good ideas for some comic books you know what I mean like I feel like I feel like real real world things when they happen sometimes my first thought
Starting point is 01:12:00 is there are creative writers right now comics or otherwise that are sitting around going all right how does this turn into a six episode making series how is this sort of thing look if I made if there was a superhero involved like you start to think of new scenarios right not saying that's good I'm just saying that's where your brain goes right so back in after 9-11 there was a lot of that stuff that
Starting point is 01:12:22 came out in fact deos X which is a great comic book series I or no I'm sorry X Machina that's the one I'm thinking of X Machina is a great comic book series about a man who gets some mechanical type superpowers and you know the kind of a shock I think it's
Starting point is 01:12:38 the first issue where the first volume ends with the revelation that the thing that is bothering him the most is that he wasn't able to save both of the towers. And so it ends with this big shot of New York with only one of the Twin Towers standing. But then you also have other things that maybe don't work out so well where you have a Marvel comic with Dr. Doom crying in the aftermath of the Twin Towers being taken down. So, yeah, I think sometimes you can get some really powerful imagery out of, you know, disasters like. this um and then other times you can get some really bad takes yeah yeah i worry about the bad takes as well of course yeah and uh yeah i don't know what the comedy world does with some of this stuff like there's just a lot there's hopefully keep their mouth shut yeah for a while
Starting point is 01:13:26 they'll figure out or or or make sure we're punching in the right direction you know what i mean like yeah yeah those those those those those douchebags uh anyway hey uh let's talk about a thing that we haven't talked about a lot, and that is the top five television shows of 2020. Now... Yeah, so last week I did my top five comic books. This week I'm doing my top five television shows, because
Starting point is 01:13:49 as previously mentioned, not a whole lot got done last week. Yeah. I think most of these you guys have talked about before in some way, shape, or form. Specifically, my number five devs, which is on Hulu. Oh, yeah. Love to. This is a crazy thing that really doesn't
Starting point is 01:14:06 start to take shape until I think around episode for when you start to discover what's really going on inside the devs facility. I loved every second of it. That is on my list as well. It's probably in my top two of the year. And one of my favorite series ever. And it's a standalone thing. So it's kind of, it's not something we're expecting a season two from.
Starting point is 01:14:28 But man, I was hooked all the way through. And when Brian had originally recommended it here on the show. And I hadn't seen it, but didn't know what was up and hadn't really thought much. about it. I am so glad I watched that. I loved it. It was like made for me. It was great. I mean, there are so many questions about what is reality, you know, what is virtual reality, all of that stuff that comes up when you finish the whole series that I'm hoping most of our listeners have already watched this. Again, this all came out in 2020. Not going to do any major spoilers on that, but there's a mind twist at the very end, which makes you kind of look at the
Starting point is 01:15:02 world a little bit different. For sure. Number four, another popular one towards the end of the year, the Queen's Gambit over on Netflix. I had that on my list. Yeah. Alternating or really changing the way people look at chess, I think. The number of chess set sales went up in November and December because of this. This one's really interesting, mainly because of not only the story of our central character, but in the costume design and set design that they do throughout this entire piece,
Starting point is 01:15:30 which is something that I don't see a lot of people talking about online, but specifically when you look at how she's dressed when she's a little girl and she meets the janitor and she's in this lowly position. She's kind of dressed in this dress that kind of flares out at the bottom and she looks like a pawn, right? When you go to the very final episode when she's walking down the street of the Russian square, she's dressed like a white queen. Yeah. And it's really cool. I didn't notice that. That's brilliant. It is the little details like that that really make the queen's gambit pay off for me. I've heard nothing but good things. For whatever reason, I haven't watched it. It's on my list. I'm going Frank, I'm going to finally see it. I mean, it's the future Furioso. What am I even doing here? I got to watch this. Yeah. Yeah. This is one that my wife and I binged and she's not one that likes to watch a lot of heavy TV, but she was into this. And I think we knocked it out in like two or three days over the, I think it was Thanksgiving weekend that we watched it. So definitely, definitely worth checking out, Scott. I even like chess. I don't know why I'm, I don't know what the holdup is. I like all this stuff. There you go. This represents. And I also, I read something about the guy that produced it took him 40 years or something to get this thing done.
Starting point is 01:16:34 Yeah, started as a book and then it was going to be adapted and then so many studios were just like, nope, nope, nope, nope, dump, nope. And it sat around and it came back. I think it was, um, NPR somebody had an interview with him. Yeah, I think that's where I heard it. I think that's where I heard it. And he was like, it was like 40 years trying to do something with it and had given up. He was like by the end is like, yeah, forget it. But in this world now where, you know, you have interested parties in services like Netflix Prime and everybody else, uh, it was perfect. And I, and apparently they can. killed it. So I would watch, I haven't seen it yet, but I would, I'm guessing like around award season, this thing gets all sorts of. For sure. Oh, yeah, definitely. If it's not winning a bunch of Emmys, then, you know, what's wrong? Yeah. But, you know, this is one of the good things that comes out of having streaming services like Netflix, HBO Max, you know, Apple Plus, Disney Plus, is that they need to generate a lot more content, quality content. And so it makes it easier for someone like Queen's Gambit to step up and say, hey, we've got something that's, you know,
Starting point is 01:17:34 a limited run series, both devs and Queens Gamb, but both limited runs. Take a chance. What do you got to lose? Yeah. You don't. You don't have anything to lose. Everything to gain. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:45 Yep, exactly. Number three, I know you guys have talked about. I don't know how many of you have watched it, and I know Nicole has watched it, over on Apple Plus, Ted Lasso. Oh, yes. Oh, yeah. A series that is just so good in its first season that Apple went ahead and said, you know what, why don't you do two seasons? We're going to green light seasons two and three because the first season took off so well.
Starting point is 01:18:07 And, you know, when you've got movies from Tom Hanks on your Apple Plus service and Scott's favorite friends actress on Apple Plus, but it's Ted Lasso that is the one that takes off, definitely worth checking out. When I first started watching, I was like, oh, this is just a major league rip off. This is, this is them just doing major league but with soccer. And it kind of is that. But then after about the first two episodes, it goes in a very time. different direction. And it's very positive overall. That's the thing. And that's what we really needed in 2020 was a good, just uplifting positive show. And that one, you know, just was so filled with, like, hope for the world. Yeah. I mean, it's, it's sad. I mean, there's a lot of tragedy in the show,
Starting point is 01:18:48 especially among the main three or four characters. But there's also that, that hope. Like you said, that's why it works. That's why it works. The show, it earns its place with the positivity by not being afraid to face down the negativity and do it in a way that's just hopeful and, you know, uplifting. Like they, the stuff they, the, he has to deal with on a personal level without spoiling anything is really hard. And it's amazing. And they earn it on both sides of the coin of the positivity and the negativity.
Starting point is 01:19:21 Like, they really earn it. That show freaking rocked. And I can't wait for the next season. So excited. Number two, obviously, no surprise. Disney Plus's Mandalorian? Yeah. Boy, did that...
Starting point is 01:19:34 Good stuff, man. End of the second season really surprised a lot of people. Yeah. It was... And a lot has been said. It's very good. Look, I'm sure there's the haters out there.
Starting point is 01:19:44 I'm sure they exist. But they don't exist in my circle. That show is fan, freakantastic, and I can't wait for more. It will be interesting, though, Steven. I don't know if you've given much thought to this, but the next time we get a proper season of Mandalorian,
Starting point is 01:20:00 It will be in and around the shadow of all these other projects that have either spawned from it or are being launched behind it. And that, I don't know what that does to my perception of it. Because right now it's this like, it's like this shining single beacon. It's a tower in the, in the sky that no one else has reached in terms of Star Wars. But now we're about to get flooded with everybody, a bunch of other takes that are similar or in the same universe or spun off from it. And I don't know what that does to my perception. I'm like curious about that like how that's well a lot of a lot of people
Starting point is 01:20:32 are you know had the the thought that oh there's too much Marvel there's too much Marvel Marvel everywhere everywhere I look there's nothing but Marvel and that didn't hurt Marvel no I don't think it's going to hurt Star Wars because the Star Wars stuff is being spread out
Starting point is 01:20:46 especially all the the High Republic stuff that was announced the last couple of weeks that stuff is going to be so spread out over so many different formats and mediums that it's not going to be a huge drain unless you're actively going out
Starting point is 01:21:02 and trying to watch every single thing. Yeah. It's a hell of a thing, though. Season 2 is so good, you guys. Brandon White says, I'm more sad that this may be the end of the Grogu and Mando story. I honestly think that the very first scene is going to be, you know,
Starting point is 01:21:20 we see the flashback of what happens to Grogu at the end of the Mandalorian. And then we just smash cut to both Grogu and the Mandalorian inside a new ship. And the Mandalorian is just like, you just couldn't follow directions for one day, could you? How do you get expelled from Jedi Academy? It's funny.
Starting point is 01:21:41 I did an arcade machine that was based around Mandalorian or a drawing of one. And I don't know why I didn't think of this, but everybody out there, it's two player, has two joysticks, two sets of buttons. And the joysticks are just normal joysticks with a ball on there. And everyone wrote and said,
Starting point is 01:21:57 dude what are you doing those should be those little silver balls he can't get enough of in fact maybe one of them's missing you should have one of them i was gonna say the joysticks should be missing like it should just be the open screw yeah without the ball on top exactly i don't know what i was thinking i'm gonna fix that before i print any of them but it's what a dumb thing to miss because it's like perfect but yeah that's such all right such a good time here we come to my favorite television show of 2020 off of hbo of course i watched it on hboh max so if you run through my whole list, almost every streaming service was represented, except for Amazon Prime. Oh, really? Lovecraft Country. This was the adaptation of the Matt Ruff book, but it went in a totally different direction. I mean, it stayed faithful to the book for the most part, but it delved into a lot more of what does it mean to be a person of color and dealing with horror, especially cosmic horror, when every day you're living the horror of racism in Jim Crow America.
Starting point is 01:22:55 and this stuff has cosmic horror. It's got your Cthulian monsters. It's got, you know, our heroes taking on the villains at all odds. And it's dealing with a lot of themes from coming out to being possibly, you know, I think there's themes of transgender in the show as well as just being somebody who is black in the 1950s America. So Lovecraft Country, if you haven't seen that, it is fantastic. There's definitely some body horror stuff. If you're someone that doesn't like stuff that might make you squeamish, you might want to avoid it.
Starting point is 01:23:29 But it is a fantastic television show. And my favorite of 2020. Oh, really? Yeah. So I guess you did say it with your number one. It's a hell of a ride that show. Brian, you haven't seen it yet? No, not yet.
Starting point is 01:23:43 No, it's on the list, but we have not watched it yet. I would put, so here's a just couple I would add to it. I would put the boys on there, which is a prime or Amazon Prime thing, or Boy Season 2. I loved it. I thought it was amazing. And it pissed me off the same time, but it was great. And I would add this much as, this much I know is true, the short mini-series, Mark Ruffalo did. Mark Ruffalo, he also.
Starting point is 01:24:08 It was an amazing, amazing acting, incredible performances all around. That was an incredible thing. Brian, would you add anything to this list? I'd add, yeah, Queen's Gambit was at the top of my list. It's funny because Scott had his list in there. And I'm like, oh, yeah, that would be on my list. That would be on my list. Oh, yeah, devs would be on my list, Manda would be on that.
Starting point is 01:24:26 It's hard to do. You took five that I probably would have had, like, easily in my top ten. I'd add Little Fires Everywhere, which was Kerry Washington and Reese Spoon. Really, really clever and dark show, I think Hulu, I want to say. And I'd add The Great, which I know Scott is currently watching. It's awesome. It was my recommendal from last Wednesday, and... It's really good.
Starting point is 01:24:53 it's it's so good it's you know it's uh katherine the great but told in a different way and kind of embellished a little bit i don't think they invented suggestion boxes in no and they put they even say at the top and the logo like i'm mostly true whatever i figure it says but it's yeah it's very very good my wife's loving it i'd add a run which is uh um oh my god for getting both of their names. My God. The woman who's so great on Nurse Jackie. Oh. And, uh,
Starting point is 01:25:26 and, uh, and dude from Ex Machina. Um, right. I know both these people and I can't think of her name. Merritt Weaver is the woman. Merritt Weaver. And, and the guy was, what was his name, Nux in Star Wars?
Starting point is 01:25:42 Uh, General Nux. He's the son of, or Hux, whatever at night. Dom Hall Gleason. Dom Hall Gleason. It is. Domhall Gleason. Yeah, it's the son of the other Gleason that everyone loves. Old guy. Old guy Gleason.
Starting point is 01:25:57 But that was just like a really quirky, quick comedy that if you haven't seen is worth checking up. That's also on. People in the chat are saying, hey, expanse, expanse, expanse. No, we know, but we haven't, I haven't seen it yet. So I'm sure. But also that's 2021. That's right now.
Starting point is 01:26:13 So that's happening now. And Fargo. And Fargo. Oh, yeah. Fargo's on there. What we do in the shadows is on there. Technically season two. ended in 20-20. That show is just in me now. It's just in my blood now. No pun intended with vampires, but gosh, dang it. It's great.
Starting point is 01:26:31 I freaking love it. I want to live with those people. And it's just so weird. It's so good. What else? We missing anything that's great. I can't think of anything else. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:44 There's a good year, is the point. It's a good year. Away is really good. I had that on my list, but it's a, deep on my list just because so many other good ones were above that. Doom Patrol. Season 2 of Afterlife with Ricky Jervase. Oh, yeah. How was
Starting point is 01:26:57 that? It was good. Oh, so good. That whole series is just so sweet. Bittersweet is like the best description of that. If you liked, what was his? Derek. Derek. If you liked Derek, you'd like this. I like Derek a lot.
Starting point is 01:27:14 Yeah. I thought Derek was great. Afterlife. Derek made my daughter cry, which is always my goal. So do what I can. Well, Stephen, this is a good stuff. Good stuff to talk about. Who knows what next Monday will bring? We don't know.
Starting point is 01:27:26 Well, I know we'll probably be talking about Wanda Vision. Oh, yeah. Yeah, Wanda Vision debuts this week. So people go and check that out. People who have seen the first three episodes are just raving about how great Wanda Vision is. Really? Oh, good. Yeah, I have not seen, I think probably the lowest negative review is it's okay.
Starting point is 01:27:46 It's better than I thought it was going to be. And then everyone else is just like, the first three episodes are fantastic. I can't wait to see what other people say about this. Now, it's an official Friday debut. I believe so. Does that mean it's going to be up to Thursday night at 10 or something? I think they release midnight on West Coast time. So I think that's what they did with Mandalorian.
Starting point is 01:28:09 I think that's what they're going to do with Wanda Vision. So if you want to stay up until 2 a.m., Brian, to watch Wanda Vision. No, but I'll watch it. I am going to watch it first thing Friday morning. Listen, it's been a year without Santa Claus and a year without Marvel, without the MCU. So I'm totally excited for it. Yeah. We can definitely talk Wanda Vision with spoilers next week.
Starting point is 01:28:34 If people want to do that, I have no problem. And if you're interested in what the rest of the major spoilers crew think about other forms of media, throughout 2021, we're going to be taking a look at other stuff on the major spoilers podcast. We've got Wonder Woman 1984 coming up next week on the show. We'll be taking a look at the Harley Quinn animated series on HBO Max, which is very, very good. We'll be looking at the first season of Young Justice on HBO Max and a bunch more throughout the year. So go check that out. Young Justice, wait, is that premiered yet or no, the new season?
Starting point is 01:29:09 Oh, you're thinking of Teen Titans? Oh, am I thinking about the, I'm talking about that Young Justice animated series from, the anime series, right, had Aquilat and everybody in it. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was awesome. I'd love that show. It was really good. A lot of people have not watched that. So there are new seasons of that or no? I don't think so. I think they've got one more season coming up, but I don't know what the current status is. Okay. Man, I couldn't believe how good those were. I mean, Aquilat is so dumb and it's just in the name alone. It's so dumb. But that ended up being so good. He's one of the best characters in it. Yep. Oh, man. Yeah, young justice, you guys. Very good. All right. Stephen, fantastic to talk to you. We'll see you next week for another edition of Stephen Hanks Out with us. We'll see you. Stay hydrated. By now. All right.
Starting point is 01:29:53 Brian, we have one thing left to do today. One thing left to do. It's a mashup and it's called Get Off of My Plain. I have a feeling this will have something to do with FilmSack and our coverage of Air Force One.

Starting point is 01:31:04 Orphan Annie? Who was the little orphaned redhead named Annie? Wasn't there a little orphan named Annie something? Ooh, man. Hmm. Adults only. Right. Do you see them titties? I recognize a Peanuts cartoon immediately because a Peanuts cartoon is a
Starting point is 01:31:19 Peanuts cartoon. It will never... Sounds like you're saying a penis cartoon. I know, I do it. Yeah, penis. Well, I mean, you got to recognize a penis cartoon. I mean, I was saying penis, but I don't know what you guys are going to say it. Can you see the penis cartoon? I was absolutely talking about a penis.
Starting point is 01:31:32 That's very realistic. Is he a bad guy? He's a bad guy. Spoiler alert, he's the bad guy. Is he a great big bad guy? Is that what he is? Is he a bad guy? Bad guy. Not a bad guy?

We get tons of them, but keep that coming because we like to see how you guys are doing and how you're feeling. All right, Brian, that's it. Let's play a song! Yes, you know what won't be in my top five? Cobra Kai season three, because Because it's the garbage that I just can't not watch.
Starting point is 01:33:18 I can't stop watching it, but it isn't good. It really isn't very good. It isn't very good, but there's something so compelling and can't look away about it. It's like they took the WB model, but then coded it in 80s nostalgia, and then they made that so that we can't avoid watching. Like, we have to see it. It's so weird. Have you seen season three yet? No, I'm seen up to two.
Starting point is 01:33:44 And again, I'm not, Chatterman is going to take issue with this. We're not saying that this is terrible television. That's not what we're saying. And correct me wrong, Brian. What I'm saying is it's kind of basic in what's going on. And it's very formulaic sort of kind of soap opera a little bit. But it's painted in a way that is, we're all eating it.
Starting point is 01:34:09 I'm not saying I'm not going to watch it. It's just, it's just, we know what it is. It's popcorn and it isn't great for us, but we love eating it. That's all. It's 90210 taken from the Karate Kid universe. There, that's it. And I've blown away, there's one cameo that you kind of expect in season three. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:31 But then there's a couple more that you get that you just can't believe. Oh, no. Like the, tell me, please, that it's the corpse of Mr. Miyagi. No? animated weekend at Miyagi's. Yeah. Daniel's on. It's not.
Starting point is 01:34:47 They got the old corpse of Pat Marita. Fantastic. Can't wait. Yes, just wait for that. All right. Let's get to today's request. This one comes to us from Viljum, Marfan on the Cool Taurus EU. Nice.
Starting point is 01:35:05 I was going to say from the chat room, but it's, no, it's a work craft thing. Mr. Johnson, Mr. Ibit, greetings. I've been listening to T-T-M-M-S-S on and off since the start, and I've listened to Scott mispronouncing things since ELR. I was going to request a song for my 40th birthday on the 20th of June, but then I heard that the average person listening to you was 39 and a half years. I guess that's me right now. I'm not sure what to request, but I trust Brian will be able to find a good song.
Starting point is 01:35:30 I've been pleasantly surprised so many times by the width of all the songs you find, Brian. So maybe a weird one, when you don't think anyone will request. I've been able to listen to all your shows, but I have been trying to listen to listen to Tuesday and Thursday ones in TMS PM, of course. I hope you and the Tedpoolers all have a very nice 2021. I see why you like it. William from Sweden. We should probably play that.
Starting point is 01:35:52 It's right here. I can see. I don't know. That's not it. I can definitely see why you like it. There you go. There you go. He says anything my choice, but maybe something with or about buses.
Starting point is 01:36:05 Hold on. He didn't mention buses at all in his letter, but the following. have said anything you know something with her about buses I'm I'm super curious about this but let me ask you this did you say 39 or 40 what's he turning he's turning 30 he's turning 40 in June but he's 39 and a half right now all right I want to play this for him since he's turning 40 here I've had over 40 pizzas in the last 30 days okay there I was just trying to find some reference to 40 that's all I had so enjoy if that clip doesn't sum up 2020 and Let's get to a cover of my favorite bus-related song.
Starting point is 01:36:44 This is originally by The Hollies. It's a song called Bus Stop. Now, this was recorded for a very short-lived ABC television series called American Dreams. It was like a love story, family drama with the backdrop of music at the time in the 60s and 50s and 60s. and they had special guest musicians come on and perform as the old bands, like on American Bandstand or things like that, in the background of the show. So it was like centered around the music of the time.
Starting point is 01:37:20 Fountains of Wayne came on and appeared as the Hollies on this show. Of course, featuring the late great Adam Schlesinger, who he lost last year, sadly. Here is Fountains of Wayne from the American Dream soundtrack with our cover of the hollies bus stop. See you guys tomorrow. That umbrella we employed it By August, she was mine

Starting point is 01:39:06 Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop Sometimes she'd shot And she would show me What she bought All the people stared as if we were both quite insane Someday my name And hers are going to be the same
