I mean, it really isn't. This is, yeah. It's just a show. Our special is that we're going to continue to provide a great show. I mean, we have some stuff today that is different than things we've done before to celebrate. So it's not like we're, you know, completely blowing off the anniversary. We have two major things. And they're both made by people that aren't us.

Oh, I know. They're great. It's kind of nice, right? We didn't have to make them. Someone else made them. And now we just, it's like someone made sweet rolls. we just have to eat them. We put them on the plate and serve them.

Right. Somebody else baked them, stirred the thing, put the stuff in. I don't know how you make sweet rolls. Whatever you do. Whatever you do to make a sweet roll, they did it. Whatever you do. Yeah, they did that. And it's all good.

So anyway, welcome to the show, everybody. Happy 10 years. 10 years actually happened over the weekend. So, gosh, what day was it? Did we decide it was 20? It was yesterday. It was the 24th. January 24th.

Yeah, you're right. 24th, that would have been a, I think it was, that landed on a Monday in 2011, I think. Did we really, we did our first episode on a Monday? We did. I think we tried to, like, came in off a weekend and just went right into it. I think we tried to, like, kick it off the way that the show would be, you know, weekly structured right away, but I could be misremembering that. But I've been doing a lot of thinking about it, and there's a lot of history there, man.

A lot of stuff happened in 10 freaking years, you know? Yeah, yeah. And it went fast. This beard I'm growing is a little wider That used to be Mine would be The word for the stuff I put in it Yeah

I was thinking about doing that But my wife says it'll look like a face toupee So I'm not confused Well the problem is that you're You tend more blonde anyway Like your hair colors is lighter Yeah So I do it because

The mustache stays dark brown Don't know why there's a little bit of there's a couple gray hairs in there but for the most part it's pretty it stays pretty dark brown but the beard just goes and is like a lot of gray like 60% gray and then some dark brown so I'm like you know what I'll just I'll just darken the beard with stuff that's not supposed to be used on on the face whatever sure sure and and it turns my I figured out how to apply it without making my fingernails black but when I rinse it it does turn my toenails black well your fingernails are not supposed to be black see I found a clip there's one right there I'm gonna do it

hold on not supposed to be black oh wait be black where is it uh here it is tomatoes are like black and tomatoes aren't supposed to be black there you go there's an oldie bit of goody there's a classic October

let's see yeah October of 2012 uh someone said some of the chat I wonder what the first The first clip we ever played was on the show. Like the first... No freaking idea. Yeah, I don't know. I could look by date, I guess, but I'm not sure that's even accurate.

Because I've played stuff that's dated earlier. Like, I played things from 05 and 04. Somebody in the chat said they were, here it is, ASVP Mason or MV son, whatever. I was in middle school when the show started, and now I've graduated college and gotten a job. Think of that, Brian. Wow.

This person has grown up during that time. Like 10 years... Grown up with TMS. We have not stunted... Do we stunt their growth? I'd actually be curious. I don't know. But like if you were 12 when we started, you're 22 now.

Yeah. If you're... These are bad comparisons because everyone knows what 10 years is... All right, yes, exactly. I'm going to stop doing that. Ten years is an easy... That's actually a pretty easy one to say. Although, you think of what...

What was, let's see, what was a big movie from 2011, like to say, oh, my God, that was 10 years ago? That's, that's usually like a really good comparison. Oh, wow. Contagion came out 10 years ago. Let's see. What about, yeah, it's real bad. Top, top 2011 movies, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2, Hugo, which is that Martin Scorsese. The remake of the thing.

Super 8. Yeah. X-Men first class. That's a different Apollo. That's not the one. The first Thor, the first Captain America movie. Warhorse. Oh, yeah, Warhorse.

That was a good movie. Yeah. Moneyball. Still haven't seen that. Just Go With It. Starring Adam Sandler and I think Jennifer Aniston? There you go. It's a safe bet, right?

That's the one. Yeah. The girl with the dragon tattoo that had, James Bond and Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross doing the music and never got a sequel, unfortunately. Yeah, David's picture movie, Runa Mara.

Oh, yeah, I like her. Yeah. Yeah, Rudy Mara. Rise of the Planet of the Apes. The one that's not as good as the other two, but it's okay. It's all right. You had to have it, you know.

Ghost Rider 2. Yeah. Yeah. How about Pirates of the Caribbean on Stranger Tides? Yeah, see. Yeah, see. That was a piece of shit.

For sure, a piece of shit. A lot of those franchise films around then. It says here we were still four years away from the greatest movie of all time. Yeah, that's true. Wow. I thought we could maybe. I mean, we had a whole weekend where that seemed to come up a lot on Saturday. I mean, I'm not going to lie to you, Brian, because of all of that and because of my mood, I ended up watching Fury Road again yesterday.

Did you? Yeah, I saw your tweets. I saw tweet after tweet after tweet. Yeah. You know, let me show you a perfect movie in Foreframe. without saying the name of the movie. Well, that was part of a trend. I was just tagging on there.

Whatever. Somebody else was started that. In fact, Audie Norman, listener of the show and contested at A&P. And A&P contested. Yeah, he's the one. I saw his post and went, oh, I'm going to do one of those. So I quoted his tweet and then did my own. And of course I chose what I chose.

Of course I did. Yeah. Yeah. And somebody else chose Hudson Hawk. Mm-hmm. Oh, the 2011 shame with the Michael Fastbender penis. That movie came out that year. Shame!

Yeah, his wiener was out. I don't know if you remember that. That was a thing. Anyway, hell of a year. I was really trying to come up with a clever pun on Fast Bender, and I really, I couldn't, that was, that would still be okay for this show. Yeah, I, a decent attempt there. Oh, Super 8 was that year. That's crazy.

I said that one, yeah. Oh, you did say Super 8. I love Super 8. Super 8's amazing. That movie is great. It is such a good film, yeah. There was, uh, the remake of Fright Night. I never saw. It came out.

Anyway, big ear for movies, everybody. Go check them out. Rent Cowboys versus aliens and Battle for Los Angeles today. And let us know if Hannah is still good. We did watch, did we do that for FilmSack, Battle Los Angeles? Battle for Los Angeles?

No, but we keep saying we're gonna, and we never know. I watched it, so I'll bow out. Yeah, you want to. Tap it out. You want to go ahead and, let's do it early. We must have watched it for a recimental or something. I don't remember what the deal was.

That's the Aaron Eckhart one, or no. I'm thinking of something else? I think you're thinking of something else. Well, now I can't remember if he was in that. Aaron Eckhart Battles Los Angeles movie. He was in the Army. Gosh, dang it. I'm going to define it now.

Yeah. Battle. Well, the one we saw, or the one I thought we saw was Battle, colon, Los Angeles. Oh, yeah, that does have Aaron Eckhart, Michelle Rodriguez. Oh, it's Battle colon, Los Angeles, yes. Battle colon. battle colon battle colon

comma Los Angeles it's the battle colon is that the one where they end up at the top of a building at the very end right no

then I am thinking of something else that's something else and maybe we did watch that that's the one that I thought we watched for film sec like they ended up

on the top of the building in Los Angeles yeah little drone aliens were coming at them yeah big spidery looking ones skyline okay that was skyline

skyline that was it you got it has nothing to do with battle and Los Angeles in the name of well

did they come out around the same time I guess they came out a year apart I don't know I thought that thought that was it I don't know

it is L.A they're in L.A. It is L.A., yeah and it's a battle and it's aliens yeah and it's aliens

all right okay I don't think you can be there's no colon there's no colon is not involved in Skyline you don't need to be you don't need to be

You were right to confuse these. I don't have a problem. This is exactly how I should have gone. All right. So happy 10 years, everybody. In the middle of the show today, we got all kinds of cool stuff. So stick around.

We'll get to all that in a minute. I was going to do some clips of my mom over the weekend, but I can't get this stupid file to work. So you're not going to hear them. But I did, I know. It sucks. She was cracking us up, dude. And it's not drugs anymore.

She's not on drugs. Everything's going great. There's no complications. They're moving her to, she was out of the ICU most of the week. and then she's off to rehab today. She said, yes, yes, yes, about the rehab. Yes, very good.

And she's, we talked to her yesterday for like an hour and a half Zoom call and her swelling is way down. She's got this cool Frankenstein stitch thing up front, up top here. Nice, yeah. And she was just making us laugh. Like, you want to know how I cut these scars?

She was really a hoot. And if I can figure out a way, I just couldn't do it before the show, but I'll figure out how to capture somebody's because some of it is freaking drop dead funny in a way that she hasn't been in years. I think she's like finally like, I don't know, maybe having brain surgery is enough for you to go, you know what, I don't care anymore. Like she doesn't, she doesn't seem to be stressed about the things that used to stress her out. She's just more like, yeah, whatever, they give me yogurt. It's not great to talking about the food. It was like having my own little, you know, I don't know, like a little comedy mom for her for an hour.

I have. That's kind of cool. Now, how long will she be at rehab? She'll be in rehab for potentially up to two weeks, possibly less. It depends on how quick things go. She could get out early on good behavior. Yeah, good behavior. She's out of there, exactly. The thinking is if she can, it's all about mobility at this point. So if she can do all her own walking, kneeling, bending over, moving, you know, just kind of general mobility stuff, which is always super affected by this kind of surgery but especially if you're 82 like it's like even worse so as long as all that stuff happens quickly she's up and out of there and good and good yeah it's all looking it's all looking great i mean you know fingers crossed on complications but so far none like it's all

been just like awesome wow yeah very textbook very like yeah everything went exactly as as it uh as it should go that's it's always uh awesome she's like my grandma her mother was super resilient that way without having to really try very hard just seem like stuff bounced off of her until it didn't and uh this is one of those that seems to be considering what happened it's it's like a major you know major recovery so she's doing great all that stuff is great um but now kim might have a hernia and has to go to the doctor this morning so that's fun oh no oh yeah she's got uh look you know you have kids and uh i don't know if you remember brian doesn't always get put back into the right place after the kids.

When Tina was pregnant and all you people out there that have been pregnant or have been married to somebody or know someone who's been pregnant, you know that their bellies get way out here and as a result, that pulls all those muscles out there and does all this stuff. That's right. It's like when you're trying to pull an extension cord back, like one of those really long orange extension cords that you're using outside in the backyard, and you try and pull it back in, it doesn't always coil back up the way you want it to. Sometimes you get like a little stupid twist in it and you have to like, oh,

Like set everything down, undo the whole twist. Yep. Yeah, I know. And when they, if they do like an ultrasound or something to try to find this thing, I'm going to make my kids sit and watch it because you did this to her. This is your doing. You did it. So anyway, that's fun.

We'll see how that goes. Hey, how is, you know what frustrated me? I was playing, or I was on a D&D show all evening last night. And all we got in the chat room. They're willing to be dungeons. Constant chat room chatter about football. wars and one of them was the was the packer game and so as a packers fan i have avoided spoilers because i don't want to know how did it go you want me to tell it like you go ahead let's make

this it this is where we find out how the packers did well the packers lost to the Tampa bay buccaneers and stupid tom brady um who really just should have the name stupid tom brady put on the back of his jersey but he's stupid tom brady actually stupid Tom Brady threw like three interceptions to the Packers. He was almost as helpful to the Packers' scoring drive as Aaron Rogers was. It seems to be like stupid Tom Brady almost through the game three times is what you're saying and yet they

still won. Pretty much. Yeah. And the most frustrating part was like two minutes left in the game. Packers are in the red zone. They're within, I think they're three and goal. Eight yards to the goal line, third down, third and goal, I guess. Third and goal, yeah.

Third and goal. And Aaron Rogers is going to do a pass. He looks around, doesn't see anybody open, starts to run, has what looks like from our perspective, a clear path to the goal line. And he's notorious for running them in where he can. Sure, he's a good runner. Whatever, he doesn't think he's going to do it. He passes it to somebody thinks they miss it. So it's now fourth and goal there are eight yards.

This is like two minutes left, less than two minutes left. This is going to be their last chance to last chance with the ball. Right. And they're down by seven point, I think eight points, eight points at this point. So they need a touchdown and they need to go for two to tie things up. Right. And how much time in the clock? Less than two minutes, a minute and a half.

minute 40, something like that. And they decide, Lafleur decides instead of going for it with eight yards, because it's the last chance they've got. They decide, he decides to kick a field goal for three.

Why? I don't know. Hope for, are you hope for an interception or an on-sides kick or something? Pretty, pretty much. No, they didn't go for the on-side kick. They punted it. He was thinking they'll, they'll be able to stop and maybe get possession again. They'll just basically go four and, uh, no, no gain.

And it was, uh, it was ridiculous. That's incredibly dumb. Yeah. It is completely dumb. Okay. Oh, so, so a little more than two minutes, uh, says PC, P. Crum. All right.

Um, but if you're out. If you're, if everyone's running low on freaking timeouts, that's a quick two minutes, man. It is, yeah, and everybody, and everybody had their time out. So, uh, so everything was a timeout. And, you know, they didn't keep that game clock. collecting one for anything. Now, that's all the sports talk you're going to get. But I was next door with the crazy neighbors for this because they are the biggest Packer fans. Not just the Biggest Packer fans, I know, but I think the biggest Packer fans. And

superstition was coming out in full display that I'd never seen from them before that I thought was absolutely hilarious. So they, it's the two of them, our two friends, Kristen and Fonda, their two friends, Kristen and Fonda, who are now our friends. And then me and T&M are watching game very socially distant in our little pairs on different sides of the living room eating our ribs and green chili and oh such good food you're killing me that sounds amazing but they're you know they start out the game and they are fully decked out in packer gear a packer mohawk baseball cap packer foam finger uh suspenders all that stuff cheese heads or no cheese heads no cheese hats uh one cheese hat there was a cheese hat but that actually turned more of a remote control holder

I heard about halfway through because that's kind of what they were doing like oh the Packers are losing it's time to switch it up I'm getting rid of this hat you know what I'm taking I'm going to take these suspenders off and just burn them because they're obviously the problem no I'm only bringing out the foam finger now

for this actually somebody else should hold the foam finger and it was just watching this like weird superstition thing of of do we need to change something up so that the Packers will start winning part of it I think was was just being funny some of it I think was actually

kind of seriously superstition well that's what makes a big chance that you know the next time the Packers are in the playoffs we're not going to get invited over because us being there changed things from the other oh yeah what if you're the problem what if Brian is the problem exactly exactly oh I didn't think of this if you're truly suspicious or superstitious

What you do is you start your process of elimination. You get rid of the hat. You get rid of the suspenders. And then go look over at Brian and go, you're still here and they're still losing. Exactly. Yeah. That's too bad. Well, too bad, Packers.

What does that mean for, I don't know where we are? That means the Bucks and the Chiefs are going to the Super Bowl. And it'll be Brady. I'm sorry, it'll be Stupid Tom Brady's 10th time going to the Super Bowl. And it'll be the first time in the history of the Super Bowl that the game will be played in one of the team's home fields. Oh, wow. The Tampa Bay will be played in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Stadium.

Why are they doing that? Is that a COVID thing? Or is that some other? No, because it was where the Super Bowl was going to be held all along, and it just so happens that the Buccaneers made it all the way through. That feels unfair, like an unfair advantage. Yeah, yeah. Because home field matters, but also I don't know what home field looks like now.

What is an audience at a COVID football game now? They're going to let in, oh, what did I see? It was like a, I'm sure it's like a 60,000 seat stadium or more. And they're only going to be letting in 2250 or five, I'm sorry, 22 500. Okay. 22,500. And only people who've gotten their first vaccine, first responders, folks like that. Oh, that's kind of cool.

yeah and they'll still be doing what they can to socially distance and yeah um interesting yeah yeah okay go uh whoever uh go not the team with go chiefs i'd like to see the chiefs yeah i'd like to see the chiefs yeah let's see the chefs do it i'd like to see the chefs the chefs great googly mowgli i used to i used to really pay attention during the seasons i don't anymore at all i just kind of i know what's i mean i get it the reason i did is because sports betting is now legal in uh Colorado. But I'd like football. Like, I'd like it. I'd like football a lot. I'd like, I know the rules. I get it. I watch it. I play it. In the 80s, I couldn't, I couldn't have been a more diehard 49ers fan. And for a while, Denver, but not very long. But yeah, like, football's great. But I don't care anymore until they get to about this point. And then I'm like, all right. Let's see how you are now. But I'm a little annoyed. It's like, stupid Tom Brady. Can you please, can you please just be a not a great player? Because you annoy me in so many ways. But the truth. is you're really good at this game and I can't deny it and it's hard for me because I don't like you very much and I don't like I don't like you but you have skills that are

hard to deny listen princess listen princess dagger 17 I cheered for the chiefs last night and they won so so go chefs there chiefs yes chef's yeah you know from Kansas the great state of Kansas uh the great Kansas city yeah We go home homes all right uh time for us to play some games here yeah let's play game yeah shall we let's bring in we haven't done this we didn't do this in the beginning of our 10 year run but i'm sure glad we do it now we have brian dunnoway joining us shortly and uh we'll have one of you out there calling us and being a part of today's tom foolery let's play a little intro for brian here whoops Marinate. Hey, Brian, Dunaway. What are you doing?

Oh, hi, Scott and Brian. Speaking of Tom Foolery, did you guys see Tom Brady this past weekend? Sure did. How did you feel about all that? I love that guy. He's the best. He's the best. He's the best great. He's a goat. He's the best player. Maybe the game's ever, he's maybe the best quarterback the game's ever seen. Okay. I'll admit it. I'll admit it. I'll admit it. He probably is. Do you just love hate mail? But I don't like him. Get ready for another email, angry email from Freeholet set. Oh, yeah.

Freehalet von Third Reich or whatever's name was. Yeah. That jerk. Reichland. That's right. Freolei, Rikland is the worst thing anyone's ever said. All right. Hey, Dunaway, it's good to have you here.

We're going to play a game. And it's good to have you here, man. We're always happy to do it. It is good to be here for the 10th anniversary of the TMS. I'm very excited. If you think about it, let's see. ELR ended in 2009, so we were still a couple of years away. But FilmSack bridge the gap, man.

That's what happened there. It did. Don't forget, FilmSack. I remember when you told me he was going to do TMS, I was like, you fool. What are you thinking? Most people said that. Like, you can't do that. How are you going to keep up a morning show every day for that long?

Look at us now. But you proved me wrong. Good on you. Yeah. Well, well done. I'm just kidding. I've always believed in you. Well, thank you. I'm a myth, so you believed in a myth. Anyway, hey, we got on the line with us, a listener who's going to participate today's contest. Let's find out who's been waiting so patiently.

Good morning. Who's this? Hey, Scott. It's Michael. Slucko in the chat. Slucko in the chat. Welcome back. It's good to have you here, Michael. We're going to play a game. Brian's going to explain the rules and tell you what your record. That's right, Michael. I'm going to be giving Scott and Brian a topic, and they're going to go back and forth giving me answers that fit that topic.

If one of them gives a wrong answer, a repeated answer, or they take too long to come up with an answer. The win is going to go to the other player. Slucco, your job is to predict who's going to come out on top. Based on the topic, today you're playing for the carryover prizes from last week, Trubberbrook and Dr. Land, the Magic Revival, courtesy of Wesley. Also, critically of Wesley, we're adding another game to this. Gris, G-R-I-S.

Ooh, that's a good one. Gris or Grease? It's just Gris, right? I, I think it's just, I think it's gris. It's, uh, it's a real word. I'm trying to remember what language, though. French. Gris is the word that you heard.

Chris is the word. Has it got to move? I don't know, but it's a beautiful, it's a beautiful game, though. Yeah, it's awesome. It's a, I don't know. Greed says, Greed. Oh, Greene. That's easy.

Yeah. I don't like green. That seems like a given that we'll get that in the title. That's a show. win. Kind of a shoeing. It's a very cool game though. I want to, just a side mention here. I believe my daughter currently holds it as her favorite indie game

she's ever played. Which take that gorgeous. It's a fun run. Yeah, that's good. Wow. All right. Well, that's what you're playing for, Slucco. But we need a topic so you can tell us who you think is going to win. Topic today, very timely. Actually, I came up with this this morning because I

felt like it. It was the right thing to do. Being the 10th anniversary of TMS, You know, the first thing you'd want to do is go look at the official hallmark list of anniversary gifts and get the appropriate gift for a 10th anniversary. Sure. What I want you to do is tell me, and I've got the list of both the modern and the traditional, but these are the official hallmark anniversary gifts. So you know how every, for every gift, or for every anniversary year, there's some special theme you're supposed to follow. Yeah.

Right. Just like Twitter, every freaking day. Every day it doesn't have to be a thing, Twitter. Right, exactly. So I want to know how many of these you can name. You don't have to name a minority. You don't even have to tell me what anniversary they are. Just guess the thing, and I'll tell you if it's what anniversary it is. Is it helpful for us at this stage to say anything in regards to how bad we think we're going to do with this?

Is it wrong for me to say this so if Slucco knows whether I'm going to suck or not? because I feel like I'll tell you right now I've got 60 items in the list Holy gosh there's Lord there's a lot of stuff you could guess that so after the 60th what is it like you don't get nothing? Yeah you get

nothing there's like wow I'll just put it this way this is easily going to be one of the worst ones I've done easily I don't think so oh I think you'll be well I don't I never pay attention to this I have no idea what Hallmark thinks are the good 60 thing I have no idea.

Yeah, I know the tradition, I know the few of the traditional ones. I can't say what Hallmark, I suspect. I have some suspicions from Hallmark, but I can't think of... Those are usually, probably based on the Hallmark ones, and then there's, yeah. I have no idea. I think it's all the way around. The traditionalist, and then...

Boy, I hope, I hope, let's, uh, Brian go first. You know, Brian go first so I can get a taste, man. I need a taste. Yeah, exactly. I need to say, hmm, hmm. You know, I can tell you, Scott, I mean, if you're thinking about, like, uh, um, um, um, um, Super Mario D.S. Don't go that specific.

Dial it back to way more generalities. It's got to be like super I just don't. Okay. All right. Fingernail polish is year five. Everybody knows that.

We'll see how this goes. All right. So, Sleco. Michael, who do you want to go first and who do you think is going to win? Let's go with Brian to start and Brian to win. That's a safe bet, dude.

I fully endorse your decision. All right. I'll go with Hallmark's Moneymaker. I'm going to go with a paper for year one. Year one is indeed paper. They make their money on them cards. They do. And it seems like a cop out.

First anniversary, you're just getting me a card? What? Pretty much. I could have had a whole life before a year ago. And now you're rewarding me. for my servitude with a card? Yeah, but in Waterworld time, that's super valuable. Hey, man, have you ever bought a card from Hallmark?

Yeah, it's expensive these days. Yeah, that's true. It's way more expensive than it should be. All right, Scott, don't forget that this first one is a mulligan, so. But hopefully you won't need it. Hopefully you don't need it. Let's go with what I can, I can only assume this is on there. Chocolate's on there somewhere?

Oh. Or did I just, did I just mulligan in that? If it's like, chocolate, you're. going with chocolate. I don't know. All right. Okay. Sixth anniversary is candy or iron, depending on traditional or...

That counts. Candy or iron? Boy, they didn't really... Or they didn't get together on that one, did they? No. So like the traditional versus the contemporary, the modern. Okay. Right.

All right. I'll take it. I'll take that. I'll take that. Just buy some candy and just pay the iron price for it. Right. Right. There you go.

Oh, man. This is right. I'm hoping this will last a little bit longer. My shit gift giving is notorious. So the fact that I don't know, you should not be a surprise to anybody. I'll just say this. Think like raw materials.

Right. That's what I'm going to do. It seems like the last anniversary is diamond. Diamond is the 60th anniversary, yeah. Ah, nobody can beat Diamond. Can't beat Diamond. like once you get once you make it to diamond you're you're done you uh you know even if you make it 61 61 61st anniversary sorry I gave you a diamond okay now I remember I remember some of these

I get these yeah these makes it yeah so silver yeah silver's my next thing silver now now the gears are starting to work yeah starting to rotate okay silver is indeed the 25th anniversary the silver anniversary is it like the iron one where it's like silver or Donuts or something like that No 25th is silver in both Traditional and contemporary Okay

All right Yep See I just want to understand why I thought I went up to 75 That's why I was like Well surely there's I don't know So anyway

Yeah Yeah Way I think of it usually Right So I would think I like the big milestones My mom used to own a jury shop That's one of the reason

Why I know some of this stuff And I worked there Occasionally Seems like 25 with silver and then 50 was gold and for some reason I was thinking 75 was like platinum or something stupid I guess I'm just wrong I'm gonna go with I'm going with uh gold gold I'm uh yes gold is the 50th and since uh since no you know what I'm not I'm not gonna never mind I'm not gonna say anything else because that one is a 75 is some icy hot six pack of icy hot metamucal yeah Um, all right. So you said gold.

Gold. Gold. I'm not telling you that. Maybe I said it. Maybe I didn't. Maybe I said gold. I'm thinking of other raw materials here. Sure. There you go. That's a good way to do it. Pretty metals. Pretty metals. Pretty, pretty metals. Let's say, I really don't know. Uh, let's, uh, it's not always metals.

It could be like probably gems or something. Uh-huh. I said diamond. Oh, I told you the darn thing. You did say, Brian. You did say, shut up. Um, so I'll say, uh, probably, uh, like a sapphire is in there. Oh, Sapphire is a great one to say, 45th anniversary is Sapphire.

The Sapphire anniversary. Well, if you're going that color, I'm going with the emerald. Emerald. the 55th anniversary is I thought it was before then I would have thought so too yeah is there one for every year

yes there is in my list every year going all the way up until 60 but I think there is a 75th the one that Hallmark apparently doesn't care about 61 through 75 but I have seen a list that go up to it's a pretty the market gets very narrow

after 60 I think right you don't want to stock those happy 68th wedding anniversary cards Because they don't sell as much. Yeah. It's just kind of sad at the same time. So I guess I'm going to say, well, wow, if paper's on there. If paper's on there, paper.

Let's say. Did we say paper? Oh, is it that thing where it's like people will say something blue? Something blue. That's a thing, right? Yeah, absolutely. That's a thing for getting married. Oh, shit.

that's not a anniversary gosh dang it I'm looking to see if there's anything anyway I kind of could be blue

I know like like a gemstone this blue let's see we had sapphire emerald I really don't know I could

all right okay you know I will say something new the 22nd anniversary is the theme of water so which could be blue hey I like it

just to keep this just to keep this from I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. We're going to allow blue as water. Okay.

Blue is water. Okay. I didn't see water ever getting, ever getting guest in this list. That opens up a few for me, but I want to use the one already had. Yes. But that makes me, that opens up. I want to go ahead and say, um, jade is on there as well. Say jade.

Sure, jade. 19th anniversary is the jade. anniversary. This is some weird, weird numbers. Yeah, this is weird numbers. Okay,

Jade on the main stage, ladies and gentlemen, Jade. Diamond, you're on deck. Put their heads together. You do that too well. If it's like,

oh yeah, that reminds me, I got to go pick up something for my wife for her 19th anniversary. Oh, Frick. So I would not go,

I would not guess borrowed. No, or something. Old, something new, something borrowed or something. Leave those other three out. All right. So those are all wedding things. I'm so bad at this. How about, okay, we'll go for another element if there is one. Sure. Sure.

Wait, there's no way they'd do this. I'm trying to think what you'd give. Oh, shite. I'll just say it because I don't know what to say. Fire. Something with fire. The 21st anniversary. Handler, baby. There's a fire one.

A fire, yeah, so you get something fire related. I had no idea. I'm going to stay in in the four elements of the fifth element table. Like the movie.

Frodo's sweat. Are you saying table? Like Earth or Stone or something like that. Stone? Stone seems like it would be an obvious one, right? Yeah, the fourth anniversary is the stone

theme. The stoned anniversary. Stone. So you get pot. Really? Well, if those are all true, then I mean, I know we're not going to have, we're not giving away Lilu, multi-pass. Lee-Lu, Lillu is the fifth element,

absolutely. That is the 32nd anniversary. They really did. That really was, what's his name, sweating into a rag and then squeezing it off and that was the grossest thing in that movie. All right. Let's go, I guess I'll say wind because I don't know.

Yeah, wind is good. I mean, you basically say it as air, which is the 23rd anniversary. You get some, give her some air. Hey, baby, come here, come here. Yeah, you just wake her up at 4 a.m. and go, and roll over and that's happy anniversary. So you, those were all in a row, you said? They were kind of like in the 20.

So, yes, 21st is fire. 23rd 22nd those years are real just crap that's just yeah it's like they they ran out of ideas before they thought oh wait we've got these other things that we could do yeah there are some other dumb theme theme years that I don't think you'll ever guess we'll talk about those at the end okay interesting um I feel like we said some of these Ooh, now I'm starting to think Now I'm definitely said some, but did we, Mm. I'm trying to remember Scott said, I'm trying to mirror or Scott said Do you say Sapphire or Ruby?

I think he said Sapphire. I'm so I'm going Ruby. Ruby. 40th anniversary is Ruby. Well done. I'm all out of stones. I can't think of it anymore. I'm all out of stones.

So last I'm out of you. Performed by the great wind supply band. Yeah, there you go. The great wind supply. Good old wind supply. Is there one with Show me? Is there, I don't know.

I really don't know. So I'm just going to say one. Meat. Is there something with meat? Me meat. Please be meat. Please be meat. Please be meat.

Is there anything with meat? Oh my God. How many give-eas can I give him? Is there like sandwich? There is. The 34th anniversary is food. Okay. Really?

Yeah. Oh my gosh. Come on. It's a, yeah. Okay, so mush potatoes even agrees. Food, food works for me. Well, Horace potatoes agrees. He thinks everything's food.

His name is. Unless you're married to Army Hammer, in which case every anniversary is meat. Yeah, no kidding. The hell's going on there. I went through most of the jury stuff that I can think of that we did, and paper was stupid. That was easy. Okay, so we did the elements. And now, obviously, we're just giving away answers with food.

Now I can say anything I won. Right. It's pretty much whatever. Yeah. All right. Um, oh,

geez, I'm thinking, um, how about, I know one is, it seems like one is like, books. Because I think,

you give a book. Okay. 37th anniversary is books. Yay. Book. I know because my, I'm so bad at that. Boy, you've been married for somebody for 37 years.

Here's a paperback copy of Eat, Pray, Love. Knock yourself out. Here's a book. Have a book. Stop being so ignorant. What year is that? When do you finally get fed up with your 37? 37, yeah.

I guess that's when you finally get fed up with their ignorance. You'll read a book. I mean, I think this was like, you know, this was all written at a traditional time when people didn't have as much men. That's what I was thinking. That's why you start off with paper. I was trying to think of stuff that they gave on Little House in the Prairie. Oh, there you go. Let's stick with that then.

They're always giving gifts on that thing. I'm going to say wood. Give them wood. It's in the chicken tasted like dot, dot, dot, dot. Fifth anniversary is wood. Oh, sweet. Okay, I'm in the groove. If you're good, you can give her both wood and meat at the same time.

Oh, man. Not the most subtle innuendo we've made on the show. I meant like a nice plate, a charcutory. Sure. And a nice cutting board. Yeah, a little bit of meat on it. Yeah, we get it. Sure.

All right. Come here, Mrs. Ingalls. Let me give you some wood. Mrs. Ingalls. Oh, my gosh. I want to say that, I want to say that, like watch is but I don't think that would be universal

maybe it's some kind of time piece time piece. Time piece. Give them some time. Yeah I'd like some you know how about for our anniversary this year just give me some time. Give me a little time. Clocks or watches are the 42nd anniversary. Okay well then

there should be the 60th anniversary right for clocks and watches. Look how much you got left. It's not much. It turns out the way to do this is to think about what some old-timey person would give some old-timey person. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I'm going to say something with like spices. Oh, that's good.

I don't know if that one's there or not, but that sounds good. You know, a saffron or... Don't worry, Scott. They're going to find a way. They're going to like, well, a weasel is the 53rd. I'm like, I'm trying to see if there's something I can stretch. I don't think there's anything like salt or pepper or anything or like a... No. Any kind of meat, like a meat glaze, like a rug?

That is no more lame of an answer than half of the things we've said. That's true. Totally true. I'm going to have to, I'm going to stick a fork in this one and say we're done. Is silverware one of the things? No. Silver. No, no me.

Don't know me, spice boy. Yeah. There's no silverware or flatware or anything like that. Silver would be the thing. And then you'd give them a nice. Right. Fork in a knife, I guess. Is a napkin?

Yeah, do all. Just do them all. No, but what's a napkin? What could a napkin be made of? Paper. Oh, with some cloth or a linen or something like that? We know where Scott eats. Yeah.

We know. We have any of paper and meat. I like meat. Both cotton and linen are our anniversary gifts. All right. So let's go through all the rest of these because it's just funny. Antiques. Appliances.

Art, bath or spa theme, appliances. Bath or spa theme, bronze. Nobody said bronze. What happened to you metal people? Charity is a theme, 59. So right before you give them the diamond, you give something to somebody else. That's good. Oh, that's rude.

China, coffee or tea. The whole country? Yeah. There you go, Cleo. China. Copper. Nobody said copper. Oh, I almost said copper.

I almost did. There's brass on there? Get back in their house, Coral. No brass. Okay. Cotton, crystal. On the 56th anniversary, it's day as a theme. So give them something day-related.

Electronics on the 44th anniversary. Entertainment on the 43rd. Faith and hope on the 58th. Wow, chintzy. Fruit or flowers, games, garden or plants, glass. Can't believe nobody said glass. Just flat out jewelry or gold jewelry on the 14th, but that's separate from gold. Home improvement on the 48th.

I made you a door. Iron, lace, laughter on the 39th. What? Latter. You just wake up going. Here's the best one. Give them something that just doesn't exist. Luck.

Wow. Look. I do luck. Luck. There's a cricket. Good luck. Exactly. Music, night, office or desk decor.

Pearls, photos or cameras, plastic, pottery or bronze. Nobody said pearls. Surprise. Silk or linen, steel, tin or aluminum, tools, travel, Willow or Pottery. Willow, the DVD and Bluray. The movie, Give them the movie, Willow, yeah, and some pot to smoke while you watch it. Wine or spirits and wool or copper. Oh, I almost said wine or spirits, or I basically was going to say alcohol, and I didn't, I thought, well, that's a weird gift.

Like, maybe. Some of those sound like revenge anniversaries, like, oh, yeah, well. I want electronics. You want your present? Lots of luck. Yeah, good luck to you. All right, so here's what happened, Michael. This happened.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner. You picked it right, and honestly, I cannot fault you for your choice. You did exactly what you should have done. And this would have all made... If my wife was listening to this, you'd just nod her head the whole time. She's just going out. I bet you know what we should have done is allowed you to tap Kim in. Oh, my gosh, dude.

She would have all this stuff. She knows all this stuff. She probably has her own list that she uses that's in addition to this. She's so good at all. I'd be curious to know how she would have done. You'll have to ask her, I'll send you a list and you can see how many she gets. Send me the list. Send me the list.

I'll ask her how many she got. In fact, I'll do it on an episode of Skim, so I have some proof. Oh, there you go. That's good. I'll say this would be a good Facebook question for your friends. It would be. They wouldn't cheat. No, cheaters.

Cheaters. Well, all right. Hey, Michael, well done. How do you feel about your win there, dude? Good, good. I've been off work a little bit lately, but I'm excited to go to the Super Bowl and work. Oh, that's fantastic. Oh, you're going to be working the Super Bowl?

That's fun. Hey to Tom Brady for us. Yeah. When you see Tom Brady, just take a balloon with you and let it deflate a little bit when you see him. Just go like that when you see him. He'll know what it means. He'll know what it means. But congratulations.

And well done. Email Brian, Coverville, gmail.com. I'll get you your codes, and you are the happy owner of said codes. All right. Excellent. We've done it. Brian Dunaway. What's the 10th anniversary? What are we supposed to be getting each other for TMS? Tin or aluminum, if I remember correctly. Yeah. So just give aluminum on there. I'll be sending you some Reynolds wrap through the mail. I thought about saying aluminum, but then I thought, well, that's just so industrial. It's used for, like, you know, computer cases and, like, recycling the aluminum. Like, nobody wants it.

That is a total BS gift. I brought you this soda. Yeah. And here you go. I brought you some alluminium. Yeah. You give her like a MacBook. Those are mostly a limit. You can do that. There you go.

Oh, wow. I know where you can get one even. Yeah. Brian has a source. All right. Hey, Dunaway. Tomorrow we're doing the Boob Show. Not much to say now, except it's going to be great.

And you guys should tune in. It's Tuesdays now at the 3.30 Mountain Time Zone at frogpans. If you want to be there live or you can check out the podcast after. Anything else you want to mention or say? Absolutely. I'm going to wiggle in the old. Boop Show time slot, 3.30 Mountain on the, uh, in the 530 Eastern time. I'm going to be playing Skull, the hero slayer. Well, yeah. I got a code for that. I'm excited to hear what you say about

That's the anniversary is Bitcoin. I get you some Bitcoin. Got you some Bitcoin for anniversary. I could see that being added to the list. Actually, I could see it too. Modern, yeah. Investments, you'd actually think that investments could be on there.

Yeah, and if they had electronics on there. Yeah, investments in luck are interchangeable. All right, we're going to take a break and play a song live on the show, you guys. We're not going to do this in post because there's a little something special about it. Brian, do you want to introduce this before we take our break? Yes, this is amazing. This was put together by Ralph Zecharias. um this is uh in honor of the 10th anniversary of tms this is a tms song called uh doctor's visit

M S M S M S M S Hey, you guys. Oh, man, I've been trying to cut down on carbs and sugar and unhealthy food in general. You've heard me talk about it on the show. Basically, it feels like I can't eat anything anymore as a result.

That kind of drives me crazy. And with all this new year business, we're all trying to eat better, right? But healthy breakfast doesn't have to be boring. Magic spoon has the amazing flavors you love without all the bad stuff. And I really like him. Zero sugar, 11 grams of protein, and only three net carbs, or excuse me, three net grams of carbs for each serving. That's very small, is the translation there. So many of you've asked, you know, how do you build your own custom variety box over there at Magic Spoon?

We've been working with these guys for a while, and we have been asked that question. And now you can choose the best-selling versions of the cereal, cocoa, fruity, frosted, blueberry flavors, plus brand-new flavors, including peanut butter, and cinnamon. They're talking my language. Anyway, it tastes amazing and honestly it's a little too good to be true. But it is. It's keto friendly also.

Gluten free, grain free, soy free, low carb and GMO free. I think my new favorite, well, my favorite was cocoa, but I think my new favorite will probably be that peanut butter, sight unseen.

I'll have to see when I get a box, but I want you guys to go to magic spoon.com slash TMS and grab a variety pack and try it today.

And I'm a mist, you know, like that into the actual theme, which is so freaking great. Yeah, it's amazing. We love it. And like we said, we're going to figure out our way to integrate that into a new theme. So watch for that. And if he's cool with it, we're going to check with him and see if he will allow it to be downloaded. So, but. Yeah, I get like a Murray Head or M, pop music, the nails, 88 lines about 44 women kind of vibe to. I love it.

Yeah, it's really, really good. Really well done. And the whole, the Cheetah thing in the middle just is so freaking perfect. It comes out of nowhere. Like, wait, why is it? Oh, Scott's talking. Yeah, that's really great. Just perfect timing, perfect beat, perfect everything.

Well done, well done. Yeah. All right. We are to a point now where we can proceed with Mondays, normalness and that involves normal mondiness one bill duran being added to the call if i can have that happen here without too much mishap that's what we're going to do and here's that your bat caves open there bill bill derand joining us from punished props dot com and uh the beautiful uh just outside somewhere near seattle area uh bill welcome to the show how the heck are you i'm good actually

if I walk two blocks from my house, there's an overpass, and from that overpass, I can see the space needle. Oh, well, see. That's how close I am to Seattle. You're pretty close. Sorry, cool. Yeah, it's the kind of thing. Hey, let's let people not forget that when we, when we were doing this in the early days, you were fitness geek coming on here before we tapped into your specialty, which is making stuff. Yeah, that's right. You used to tell us what kind of push-ups to do and what kind not to do and what weights were good to have, and if it was the kind you get on Amazon or any good and that kind of stuff. And now we're all fat and gross and doing making stuff instead. Yeah. There we go. I like it better. Yeah. You know, do you know what I did my main hobby before that?

Before fitness, before profit? Photography, right? Correct. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Because I have an original. Well, I don't know if it's an original, but I have a builder and photograph over on my, well, look at this photograph.

Yep. The year we started, uh, or let's see, 2010 and 2011, both, uh, uh, nerdtaculars, both featured Bill doing a bunch of photo work. And some of my favorite stuff, like that, some of our group, like, producer photos that we made, the heated, they're amazing. I love them. Do you ever feel, you ever feel like you want to dive deep back into that? I know you do a lot of photo stuff for your finished props and stuff, but. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Do you get the, you get the itch now and again? Yeah, and that's what I'm here to talk about. Oh, the it's. My itch. All right. All right. So that's, yeah, that's, photography is how I became a part of the Frog Panthers. collective. I went and shot

photos. The first one was Nurtacular 2010. So I met all you guys. Now, I've been shooting photos my whole life. My mom is retired now, but she was a high school art teacher, and one of the classes she taught was black and white photography. So I've been in the dark

room since I was like 10 years old. Processing film and photos and stuff. Had an awful lot of practice. And I've been using it a lot in the last 10 years with my props and costumes. But recently i've gotten back into the hobby just kind of for fun uh i bought a new camera no all right nothing will make you get back into photography like buying a new camera yeah so now i

already have lots of cameras um didn't you know didn't need another camera but hear me out okay i got the sony 87 r3 and i got it specifically for shooting still photos now this camera um all cameras now shoot photos and video right they they can do both it's not that hard i guess right but this one the settings and the features are specifically tailored for shooting still photos it has a larger full frame sensor um and a bunch different settings that are make more sense for for stills sure it will shoot video and it does look very very good but my plan has to shoot lots of stealthy photos sure that camera by the way real good good streaming

quality streaming camera as well. That thing's awesome. It just works out of the box, which is nice because usually have to jump through a bunch of hoops with either lensless or mirrorless or otherwise. They're usually just a giant pain, but that one is just like awesome out of the box.

It's great. Very cool. So one of the things I want to shoot more of is wildlife. I love animals. We love going to zoos. So I've been practicing lately by shooting photos of the hummingbirds. that come to the hummingbird theater outside of our living room.

Yeah. If you head over to my Twitter, Twitter.com slash chinbeard, you'll see I've been posting photos of hummingbirds. And I've been trying to do like one every day, but, you know, sometimes I'm going to have birds don't show up. So I've been posting a bunch of those lately. Do you hit...

They're amazing. Tina saw them on Facebook and immediately said, Brian, you've got to look at these. And I was floored by how good they are. Are you catching them like mid-wing and stuff like that? Like, how's the camera doing that? Like, like, you know, not having a blur. Getting what I can.

They're really squirly. Yeah. They're really twitchy. They're really skittish. They also compete for the feeder. Only, usually only one at a time will be by the feeder. So one of them will be eating and another one will, you know, show up and shove him away to take it. So it's tricky.

But basically, when we're at the couch, like if, if, so like, Saturday morning, we're sitting at the couch. watching TV or playing video games or whatever from the couch I can see the feeder and if a bird shows up actually I'll leave my camera right next to the feeder by the window and when a bird shows up I'll sneak over turn on the camera and then try

and take a photo of them and it's work and it's tricky most of the photos are blurry most of them they move a little bit they blink they twitch or they try and fly or they fly away so most

the shots are bluerer. Sometimes I'll take a photo and the bird's just gone. It's just a blurry shot of the background. But occasionally, they come out really good. Well, you do, I mean, normally when you see shots like that where you've frozen in time, their wings or whatever, it's usually some high-speed camera that's just like... Yeah, yeah. I'm not shooting fast enough to catch that. I'm struggling with light. I don't have any lights out there. So I'm at the the will of the sun and the clouds and it's winter in Seattle, so not a ton of light.

So I'm shooting at like one 500th of a second, which is still pretty quick but not quick enough to pause their wings in midair. Their wings move so fast. Yeah, their little freaks is what they are. They are. Damn birds. I've been watching. Actually, there was a documentary on Netflix I watched about hummingbirds.

It was pretty fascinating. Really? Wait, there's one just about hummingbirds? Oh, yeah. Oh, I kind of want to see that. I do, but I do. Anyway. Right now I've been shooting with a macro lens. I got the Sony 90 millimeter F2.8 macro. And when I'm shooting pictures of the hummingbirds,

the lens is almost touching the glass of the window. I'm that close. And the birds are only maybe six or seven inches away from that. So I'm way up in their grill. And not a lot of lenses can focus that close. But macro lenses are designed to do that. So I can focus really close on their tiny little adorable faces. I love that.

And I try to get their eyes in focus. That seems to be the goal of most animal photos. Get their eyes in focus. It's tricky. With a macro lens, when you're that close, the depth of field is like three millimeters thin. It's so razor thin. It's hard to even get the whole bird in focus.

You ever want to do insects? I've considered taking photos of them, yes. Yeah, that's what I mean. Because they are trippy when you get up nice and close, man. The stuff you see coming off for those guys. Weird. I got a photo of a little tiny little jumping spider recently that was pretty good. That's cool.

Yeah, and a little, a tiny little inchworm I saw. I don't think I posted that anywhere, but there are bugs are everywhere. If you want to take photos of bugs, bugs, good news. Yeah. It's everywhere. It's almost one of those things where far away, oh, that's, that's, you know, not great. That bug.

It's like kind of freaks you out. Then there you get a little bit closer. It's like, oh, that's really cool. But then you get even closer. It's like, no, that's freaking me out again. Yeah. Yeah, they have different levels of freak out. It's like a bad neighborhood from a plane looks okay when they're about the size of a toy.

But then if you pull out too far, it looks like a nightmare. And if you're way in there, it's awful. Like, it's exactly the same. Exactly. I'm looking at a sweet spot where bugs are. These bugs get hair and stuff. We forget. Tiny critters.

I took a photo of some small crabs. We were out at the beach a few days ago. These little crabs are like, I don't know, two centimeters wide. They're really, really tiny. And you don't notice, just from the human eye, looking up really close at them. You don't notice that they have little hairs on them. Tiny things, tiny critters, covered in weird little hairs. Yeah.

Yeah. And you don't want to know it. No, you don't. Don't. Hummingbirds, by the way, if you look really close at their eye, they don't really have eyelashes so much, but they do have tiny little feathers that circle their eye. Oh, really? Really interesting.

Yeah, you absolutely cannot see it with your eye. But they have these tiny little feather eyelashes. They're really cool. That's very cool. Are you taking your pictures on a tripod with a remote, or are you holding? it to take a picture of them that steady. For these, I'm holding it. So there's a couch right by the window and I can put the camera on the couch and it's

aimed pretty much at the bird feeder. And then I will kind of hide behind it so the birds don't see me as much. And I look at the LCD screen and I aim the camera at their faces and try and take their picture. So I'm sitting there holding it so that I can move the camera a little bit. I'm so close that if they're not in frame then I'll just cut off half their head

so I have to be able to move the camera to be able to frame them in the shot that's how freaking close I am with that 90 millimeter lens yeah so it's how often do they flee in terror when you're that close to just constantly there's so many photos of like

the couch blind yeah I have so many photos of the blurry backside of a hummingbird as it's skittering away or flying away there's another bird chased it or it saw me or saw one of the cats the cats love it yeah oh of course

yeah cats would eat that up literally if they could one more one more trick I did so I wanted more light but there's no light coming from my direction from inside the house so I got a white piece of plastic this white sheet of plastic that's

a couple feet wide and a couple feet tall and I cut a hole in it and I put a it against the window so that I can shoot through the hole, but when sunlight hits that white sheet of plastic, it bounces back and fills in the birds with more light. That actually seems to work pretty well. Yeah, that's clever. Yeah. All right. Well, very nice. And a lot of the stuff I'm looking at your Twitter account, I'm seeing a bunch of it there. So if you want to check out some of his photo work on this fancy new camera, make sure you check that out. Bill, you also leave us with a link every week. What do you have this week?

I do. I've got a fun one. I'm going to post a link in the chat. If you look up this YouTube channel called NerdForge, they make a bunch of cool nerdy stuff, but recently they made a bunch of leather armor, and it looks really cool. Oh, look at that. Yeah. Full on thing, patterning, cutting out, painting. She made the leather look like metal, and she did a really good job of it. Let's see, I'm going to skip ahead here in a little bit. And then take it. Look at the finish product. Yeah. Oh, wow, that's a lot of work. It is a super lot of work. Yeah, it looks amazing, though.

It does, lots of rivets, lots of straps and buckles and fur. It looks so cool. She looks like, what's her name, Sansa Stark or something. Maybe that's exactly who she's supposed to be. I don't know, but it looks amazing. Very cool. Go check that out. That's at NerdForge on YouTube.

And, of course, you can find Punished Props. at YouTube.com as well, as well as PunishProps.com. Chinbeard on Twitter. Bill, thanks for hanging out with us, and we'll see you next time. We got it. Bye now. Okay. That's really cool.

God, these do look like metal. I know, right? Wow. They're pretty metal, man. Pretty metal. They look metal to me. All right, Stephen Schlecker. Major spoilers.

Sure. Bringing him in. Yeah. Bringing him in. He's coming in. He's coming in hot. Boy, I got a little upset. assess of these up-closed insect photos. I've got to close all that

out. A little disturbing, right? Some of them. Freaking me out. All right, check this out. Stephen. When Kadaler Ha sings it, we know he's here. It's Stephen Schlecker, joining us from Major Spoilers.com. And you were gone last week because he had some stuff, but I don't know

if you heard my review or my thoughts on injustice, the injustice comic series. It's so Good. You know what? When I'm not on the morning stream, I actually do listen to the morning stream. Oh, that's good. Unlike some people. You don't just listen to the parts you're in, right? Exactly. I love

that series, though. I just wanted to reiterate it. It was so good. I didn't expect it at all. I thought it was going to be a dumb tie-in, and it's not. It's like damn good. So anyway, if you're on the universe, you get the whole thing. If you're on Comicsology, they have the first volume for, or part of Unlimited, and then you got to buy the other stuff, but it's really good. And Stephen, while I was at it, when I finished that up, I ended up reading 40K, the new Marvel.

Oh, you see, the new Marvel one, yeah. I like it a lot. It's really good. I thought that was going to be a stupid tie-in. And it's not. It's good. What is it, Marvel 40K? Well, it's, Marvel's the publisher, but it is the Warm Hammer 40K.

Oh, it's a Marcus Aurelius or whatever the guy's name is. Marvel, hold on. I'm going to find the title. Warhammer 40K. Okay, so this was called Marnius Calgar. Yeah, that's it. Correct, Marnius Calgar, which sounds dumb, but if you're a fan of like the Warhammer stuff, you know that that sounds just perfectly normal for that world.

At some point, did they say Caligar take me away? No. Oh, darn, okay. This comic really did. It surprised me how much I liked it. And the artwork reminded me of Mobius. A little bit, yeah. A little bit.

And it was just, I thought it was great. I'm now eagerly awaiting issue, too. I was surprised how much I liked it. Anyway, comics, man, they're the best. Hey, Stephen. TV Zegan says that his high school friend Jason is the artist behind that. Oh, no way. Behind that series.

That's really cool. He's really good, dude. His style really lended itself to this thing. And it just went deeper than the surface-y stuff. Because Warhammer can be seen as just a big loud warlike, you know, without a lot of depth or whatever. But some of the books and novels are really cool. I love the world building that's in. these things and this comic does a really great job of setting up characters and it's very,

very cool. So do check it out. All right, Stephen, enough of my comic book reading. Oh, yeah. Let's talk about some other really hot comic book properties like Heroes Reborn. Yeah. What? You mean from the 90s, right? Remember that Heroes Reborn from the 90s there, Brian? Yes. So for people that don't remember, it was this way to reboot the Marvel universe back in the 90s. And one of the weird things about it was they gave Wildstorm Comics with Jim Lee and they gave, I think Rob Leifeld was still over an image at the time, but they gave

those properties over to those two to spin out this whole Heroes Reborn series. And I think the only thing that people ever remember from the original Heroes Reborn is Rob Leifel's Captain America picture. Yeah, that one picture he did of Captain America, but we'll never forget. Guess what? Heroes Reborn is back, baby.

Oh, my gosh. So this all came, this was all after the big, what was the name of that big? Oh, the original Heroes Reborn came after Onslaught. Onslot. So the big character, the big onslaught character wiped out a majority of the Marvel universe. And so they relaunched all these titles as number ones. And, oh, yeah. So it says here, this is going to imagine a world where Tony Stark never built Iron Man.

Thor is a hard drinking atheist. Wakanda is dismissed as a myth and Captain America was never found in ice So basically the Avengers don't exist Right and so in return We get the squadron supreme who take on the black skull The Silver Witch, Thanos and his infinity rings And I guess some of the heroes

One of the images that they sent out is What is Juggernaut's name? Dr. Juggernaut so it's like Dr. Doom meets Juggernaut Oh yeah you've got the green yeah the silver armor With the green accents This is basically this is an old trick in comics Right. The other comic I am reading, I'm not done with it, but is that Batman year one, Jeff Johns did with, I forget the artist. He's really good though. But anyway, it's basically like, hey, what if Alfred was, what if he was Bruce Wayne's dad's friend from the war, from Desert Storm? Like, they really flip shit around and cobble pots the mayor and, you know, like just weird ideas like that. That's one of these again, right? That's what we're doing. What is? Oh, sure. And I think it's a way to, you know, we've seen this with House of M.

We've seen this with, you know, any kind of big, no more mutants kind of thing where we have to totally wipe the slate clean. And then we reintroduce people in some new exciting way and hope to get everyone excited. In fact, DC Comics is doing, I wouldn't say the same thing as this, but their future state, which goes on until March, is what if we jump ahead, you know, X number of years and there's all new heroes to wear the costumes and do the things. And so, you know, this is a thing where apparently Blade is the only one who remembers the before times and is gathering together a team of people to come and figure out what is going on and put order back to the universe. So he's taking the, oh, who was it before? It was Bishop was the, was one of them where Bishop remembered the original. Yeah. And if you're going as far back, if you go far back as Crisis on Infinite Earth, Psycho Pirate was one that could remember all the alternate timelines.

Wow. I love that they're sticking it with him. The Blade is the only one. Blade, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's hilarious. There's some interesting teasers that went out last week of some of these. I like the one that has Mr. Fantastic and Ben Grimm, and they're dressed as agents from Shield, except Ben Grimm, of course, isn't the thing. He's just, you know, a dude in a shield costume. Yeah. You're never going to see these What-Effs really, truly hit cinematic level, right? Like, you're never going to see a movie about it. I mean, there's a whole animated series coming up called What If? Yeah, and don't forget, I mean, didn't Spider-Ham, spectacular Spider-Hams start out in a what-if kind of thing? Yeah, I think it's a what-if or one of the alternate, you know, universe kind of things, yeah. Yeah, and Spider-Verse is basically playing on the multiple Earths. By the way, before someone emails me.

But we could see Multiverse of Madness bring in some kind of what-if business. Sure. Before people send me emails with corrections, I met Earth One-N. year one for Batman. That's what I'm reading right now. Yeah, Earth One is a really cool series for people to check out. The newest one, I think it's Earth One, year two for Green Lantern, which I believe is also a Grant Morrison gig that people should check out. And these are just reimaginings of

these DC heroes in alternate timelines. They have Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Green Lantern are the four that are out right now. They each have multiple volumes. The interesting thing about those and why we don't talk about them that often is because they usually are not marketed direct towards comic shops, but rather they're marketed towards bookstores, which is where they've had their huge sales numbers and why the Batman one has wound up on the New York Times bestselling list for multiple times, but of course, there's always issues with the bestseller list at New York Times.

Sure. Well, I'm really enjoying it, but part of me is also going, are they just going to, I mean, alternate earth stuff like where, oh, we're on Earth three. That means on Wonder Woman has two heads. this point right exactly well actually earth three is where everyone is evil right exactly so i guess this is just part this is the staple of comics is what we do and it's fine but sometimes i wonder if they rely on that too much to get people hyped tc especially i think does that a lot because they're like oh our continuity is so out of whack and we can't keep introducing these multiple earths just so we

can reset the the age or the origin of our superhero so we can get these young readers involved And then at some point, like with Crisis on Infinite Earth, they try to clean it up, but they only create bigger problems in the case of Hawkman and Batman and Superman. Sure. Well, Hawkman, no stranger to messing things up. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So be on the lookout for Heroes Reborn coming out in April.

Yeah. Heroes Reborn number one, sorry, arrives in May, sorry. Jason Aaron, writer, artist Ed McGinnis. I like him. Lately, it's weird. I've been searching for comics based on artists more than writers. which surprised me, except for the writer of injustice,

who now I'm totally hooked on that dude. I love his writing. I went to something else he did. I forgot what it was, but he's great. What a surprise that ended up being for me. Yeah, I mean, when John Byrne took over Superman,

I followed him over there, D.C., and started getting that series because there are some writers. You're just like, oh, I want more from this guy. Mark Millar with the authority. I got huge into the authority just after reading his work on X-Men I was like oh I've got to follow him over

over to hear the screen even though that I was meant to read that how was that the authority very gruesome and really but really really cleverly written who published it Wildstorm

I need to see Wildstorm and a DC still does to an extent when Vertigo was around they still had it but a lot of those characters have been wrapped into ongoing continuity Midnighter and yeah I got a lot of

looked at a man or whatever his name was this is one i saw back in the day and went oh i'll be checking that out and then i just totally forgot about it so well scott maybe you can now the dc universe has become dc universe infinite wait did that happen when did that happen begin summer 2021 oh all right well that was i keep waiting for that to happen i keep going there and it says check out our tv shows i'm like you butt holes you're not even going to have this i don't want to watch arrow what are you talking about i've got i've got HBO max give me something i just want comics or whatever and i still use it and it's still cheap and it's fine but um I keep hoping that rollover sooner than it is, but I guess it isn't.

We've got to wait. Yeah, they have a plan for this summer, so be on the lookout for that. And I think it's actually sooner than what we're seeing on some of the other infinite subscription lists. I want to say it's only three months out as opposed to the six months out. But they've got their full slate of debut comics and everything looking for that. Oh, it says DC Universe Infinite will launch January 21st, 2021. Whoa. That means it's out, right?

Yeah, it should be out by now. All right, I'll go look. I'm in the mood for, like, gritty DC comics right now. I'm just, I'm in the mood. So I'm going to go dig in. All right. Finally, in the municipal. Did you watch any Wanda Vision, by the way, Scott?

Still haven't. Still trying to get my wife and my daughter to have the schedule I want them to have. Sinking up their schedules. Yeah, syncing up their schedules. Yes. And so today, we're aiming for tonight. If somehow it can happen after A&P tonight, that's what we're going to do. If it doesn't work out, then I don't know what I'm going.

I may just watch it because I'm sick of waiting for everybody to sink up. 30 minute episodes, you can blow through three of them very quickly. Yeah. It's like you keep telling them. I'm like, you guys were only going to be sitting here for like an hour and a half. We got this. They're like, well, I've just got the whole one. They're going to be super glad they did.

Yeah. I think so. I think so. Yeah. Well, okay, Stephen, hold on now. What's your take on this so far? The more you get to binge on that show, I think the better off you are. But let me, I'll let you.

Yeah. What do you think so far? Yeah, I don't want to spoil anything about it, although I, you know, I will say that for those people that are like nostalgic for old time, you know, comedy and history of television type stuff, this show is steeped in that. But there's just this whole sinister aspect of the show that in the first episode when the boss comes to dinner, there's a moment where it just gets seriously creepy. And then you're like, oh, yeah, okay, this world is not right. And then it continues on to the second and third episodes and then, you know, a little bit more of what's going on is revealed in each episode. So I think there's that building moment. This is one where I kind of wish they would, instead of doing one a week, that they would do two episodes a week, just because I think that the, what's JJ Abrams mystery box can only go so far before people get fed up with it.

And I'm getting a lot of lost vibes in this. Oh, interesting. Okay. Yeah. That was the thing that turned Tina off of Legion. Oh, yeah. That whole, all right, what's in the mind? not in the mind blah blah blah um i think there's this this does it far better i think than legion but

yeah yeah but if they don't start giving her a little bit more well i think i think the end of episode three yes gives a bigger picture of what's going on if only for a second or two um but uh i i i'm hoping that this week's episode really kind of says okay we need to go outside of this television world a little bit more and see what's going on here's my here's my biggest my chief concern that the I haven't seen it so this isn't a spoiler because I don't know I have no idea because I haven't seen it

but if this whole thing turns out we all know what happened at the end of end game or the end of Infinity War Vision is in the MCU vision is gone after that so is he even there and are they going to get to the end of this

and just make me sad that the whole thing was not he was just never involved like there is no vision that's going to piss me up off. So there's one of two things that are happening here. Either there's some nefarious plot to do something with one of the characters, or this is the tragic way in which people cope with loss.

Yeah. Yeah. I guess that's what I'm theorizing. Maybe. Yeah. And if they do it right, then I guess I'm in, but, you know, just nervous about it. Let's plan on a spoilery discussion of this for Stephen Schlecker time next Monday, because hopefully Scott will have watched all of them, including.

Four episodes. Yeah. And Benjins saying... I've got theories and I really want to talk about them. Benjin says and Dice to Man on some others are all saying that this is all answered in House of M. I don't think... I mean, I know a lot of people are like, hey, let's all point to the only Wanda big event series and the only vision big event series to ever say. And that's where they're drawing inspiration from.

Yeah. Maybe a little bit, but I'm not so sure. Okay. Yeah. Exactly. We will return to this discussion. after we've all seen it, maybe... I mean, if people want to go and read House of M, go ahead. It's not a super great event.

I mean, it's interesting. We're talking about Heroes Reborn. Well, it's Heroes. Right. It's Heroes were born with the mutants, basically. Yeah. And then if you want to go and read the other one that people are pointing to, it is the Visions, I believe is the name of the series,

where it's basically the vision is in a suburban community, which is really turns out to be a prison for certain people with powers. Mm-hmm. Did the vision, vision came from Jarvis in the comics as well? Or is that just MCU? No, he came from Ultron.

Right. So that's different then. Yeah, kind of was almost a reversal of how he came to be in the MCU because it was reversed, right? Ultron kind of spawned from, from Vision in the MCU and it's kind of flipped the other way. Yeah. And I know that stuff's not, you know, MCU's its own thing and it's always been that way, but I never read anything about his origin story in the comics. I was always, I always wondered like if that was the same. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's an Ultron. He was an Ultron creation.

Yeah. Interesting. All right. Well, I missed Jarvis. What's the point of that, though? Where was I going with that? Oh, hey, and the incredible animated series we've talked about a number of times. We have a debut. It's happening in March. Yeah. Yeah, March 26th, we will get the first three episodes of the Invincible animated series on Amazon and then every week after that for five more weeks we'll get the remaining episodes in the eight

episode series for season. I'm excited. Really excited to see how they do this. What a voice cast. I know the cast just keeps getting longer and longer and longer every time you look at it. Yeah, Stephen Ewan from Walking Dead, J.K. Simmons as Invincible

and his dad, Zachary Quinto, Seth Rogan, Gillian Jacobs. Zazzy Beetz Mark Hamel, Walton Gaggins Yeah, ooh, Walton Gagins, sweet Walton Gagins Shain Clancy Brown Yeah, Clancy Brown

Jason Nizukas I love Clancy Browns It is just a huge list of people And as this If this does get a second season Which I suspect it will The list will get even longer

Because the number of characters If this, if the first season ends Where I suspect the first season ends Which would be the end of the first 12 issues of Invincible Then the world Just opens up after that And there are so many other characters

Introduced Totally Do we know anything about its rating As far as like if it's going to be Oh I'm pretty sure this is I'm pretty sure this is going to be adults only Because there's a lot of blood and guts Just in the trailer

Oh good excellent Yeah I'm going to watch the trailer as soon as we're going here I don't want this watered down at all I don't want that No no That was the most shocking thing about that series was How quickly things went Oh, my gosh.

Yeah, and Ryan Otley, who became the primary artist on the series, he likes to get bloody. If somebody gets punched and, you know, when you're a superpower that has, doesn't hold back, he's, it's not uncommon to see, you know, intestines and, and eyeballs flying at the screen and brain matter scattering all across somebody's fist, that kind of stuff. That's what you hire that guy for. Yeah, real quick. That's why he's doing Spider-Man. I just want to say that I think the the casting of J.K. Simmons as that character is perfect. Yeah. It's perfect.

I can already, when I read that comic, I was already hearing a voice like J.K. Simmons's voice in my head. Like, it's perfect. Dead, perfect. I can't wait. All right. And so that puts, and that puts J.K. Simmons in both Marvel and D.C. movies and now image comic TV series. Is there a comic property that we can't fit J.K. Simmons in? I don't think so.

I don't think so either. He can do it all. We'd have to find something over at Boom or IDW at this point. Boom Studios drummer man with the voice of J.K. Simmons. If they can get him in a Transformer series or My Little Pony series, he would be, IDW would have him covered there. There you go. So, yeah. Yeah.

He's got some TV show on right now. I want to see. Everyone says it's great. And I haven't watched. Oh, is that the one with the alternate dimension version? Yes. I think that one's been done for a couple of years maybe. Oh, he's also rumored.

No, that absolutely is. Yeah, that one, Tina and I watched. And, boy, you can, that's a show where you, again, you cannot be doing anything else while you're watching it. Counterpart, you have to be watching. It was excellent. There's another series is in where he's an Allstate Agent, and he's teaching people about him.

Those episodes are really like three minutes. Shorts, yeah. I don't know if I like the format. Live action shorts. He's in Morbius, I guess. Oh, he's as farmers, isn't it? No, the Morbius thing is still rumored, but he's supposed to be in Morbius as well.

As Jay Jonah Jamison? It would make sense. I don't know. It didn't say. It just says rumored to be in there. Well, I mean, that's part of his, that's part of the Marvel Sony joint. Oh, is it?

Is Morbius not a, that's a Sony, that is a Sony thing, isn't it? You're right. It's a Sony thing, yeah. Yeah, so it's going to be, uh, well, there you have it. Also delayed. Which is fine. Also delays, yeah. Yeah.

Uh, 2022 now, right? Lesbius is basically what we're, what we're getting. Yes. Not morbius, but lesbias. Lesbius. Until 2020, 22 seems to be the year they're all happening for now. Very carefully phrasing that. The aisle of lesbias.

Hey, Stephen, it's been a pleasure. Uh, what else do you got going on there at the major spoilers network people should know about? Uh, I'll be shoveling out about.

Today marks the 10th anniversary of my favorite podcast.

I'm with it the best community I've ever had the pleasure of being a part of. I talk about the hosts of this show as if they were friends and I see that I see in person every day. Well, we are your friends. You just don't see us in person every day. What lies before you is the culmination of 10 years of fantastic content by a couple of chuckleheads that bring me in the entire tad pool much joy each and every day. Enjoy this trip down memory lane as we celebrate 10 years of the morning stream together.

TMS mashups, Jamie. Well, that was really nice for you to send that, Jamie. Thank you for that. Here's the bummer. YouTubers, you're not going to hear this because we're going to get the video good band. Yep, I have to pause a video. But the audio, I don't.
