Well, you should. I'm already dead. You said it, remember? And by the way, my name is Rock now. What kind of stuff did you do at work? Ermergerd. This is the Morning Street. Good morning, everybody. Welcome back to TMS. It's the morning stream for Wednesday, May 12th, 2021. I'm Scott Johnson with Brian Nibit. Hi, Brian. Hi, Scott. How are you? Hey, man. I'm good. So, hey, this thing at the top of the show that I played, I want to get some quick feedback from the chat. So chat, I'm going to play the last part of it here. Hold on. Let me see. Where is that? There we go.

And by the way, my name is Rock now. How many of you have heard of this, this anime called Black Lagoon? Is anyone familiar with this? Not familiar at all. Is it starring Brooks Shields? Because that, uh... Yeah? Wait, where are you getting the Brook Shields from?

I don't know. Where's this coming from? Oh, Blue. How did I not put those together? How did you not? you not. Oh, it's embarrassing. No, it's some weird thing.

I saw it the other day on Hulu, and I thought, hey, this looks interesting. I'll watch it. It looks like action-packed anime, which I'm into. And it's the only kind of anime I really like. I don't want a lot of talking. I want robots and guns, and, you know, that's what I'm in for. And you just watched Akira the other day, so... I did.

I've been in the mood. You're on a kick. Yeah, I'm in a mood. Although Akira made me want more big gelatinous flesh monsters, but I haven't really found much more of that. but yeah it's violent and ridiculous and over the top and I don't really know what's going on in the story but I was curious if anyone liked it

and it's okay it's all right right in if you have thoughts the guy named the guy changed his name to Rock because now he's cool and he's working with this team of renegades these mercenaries and so his name is Rock now it's pretty dumb it's pretty dumb that is pretty dumb yeah

all right speaking of dumb let's dive in we got a whole show of dumb it's all dumb coming up here on the show and we're glad to be doing it for you uh it's recommendals day and by the way i'm very excited yeah oh we've got two great recommendals oh good i've got one and it's uh still i'm not done yet but i'd like it enough to recommend it early so oh interesting okay um all right let's start things off with a quick email this is from colder snack okay all right that's how i prefer some of my snacks is colder i'm trying to think where that name might come from maybe he just

like colder snacks. It sounds like a like a Canadian TV show. A Canadian animated TV show, TV show, right? Season 3 of Coldersnack.

Yeah, exactly. Coming up on Canada's colder snack. Yeah, that makes sense. Well, here it is. It says, hey, Bohemian and Sportsball. Okay.

That's a weird combo. That is. If you both had a secret life and the other didn't know about it, what would those secret lives be? You have to guess each other's secret life. So I have to guess what your secret life would be. You have to guess what mine would be. And he then says live and live free, whenever that means.

That's also Canada. Oh, yeah. I guess so. All right. So the idea, I guess, is if you had a secret life you were leading and I didn't know what it was, what would I guess it would be? And the same for you. You'd have to guess mine.

Boy, this is actually harder than I thought. This is actually, this is pretty hard. All right, here's mine. Scott Johnson, in his secret life, the life that none of us know anything about, is secretly a fiction writer. And he writes novels about post-apocalyptic westerns that end with car chases. Oh, I want to be that guy. I want to be that guy, all right? And your pen name, your pen name is.

Mm-hmm. You're going to make it up? Yeah, I'm going to make it up. Your pen name, your secret life pen name is Morrison Yellow Bottom. Oh, do you get the new Yellow Bottom out, a book? I hear it's amazing. A new post-apocalyptic Western book by Morrison Yellow Bottom. Would my book have to have, you know how authors put their big fat name up first and then a tiny title for the book?

So it's like, King and then Stephen King's book. But it's a yellow bottom. and then... Yellow bottom. Yeah. That's how it would be. All right. Well, Brian's secret thing is...

So yours is interesting. You are a proper... Like, in all the stereotype ways, you are a major proper pimp in my mind. Okay. And by that, I just mean, like, the furs and the cane and the struck down the street. The big fedora.

All that stuff. Just out of this world decked out with that stuff. But here's the twist. You secretly run a brothel slash prostitution service out of Las Vegas. We're part of Nevada, maybe not right in Las Vegas, but maybe... Is it a little horror house in Vegas? It's a different place. It's your own place.

And the difference here is, though, you're really super modern about it. All of the girls are... There's zero human trafficking going on. All of the girls are high-end professionals who get to basically write their own ticket. to basically pick everything. All that they're paying you for is a little bit off the top to have the space because you own the space. And there's no roughing each other up.

Nobody beats anybody up. It's like this idealized version that probably doesn't exist. I'm Henry Winkler and Winkler and Michael Keaton in Night Shift. Yeah. I'm that with the pimp outfit from Fuzzy Bear. Yes, you're the total Fuzzy Bear outfit. That's the one we're looking at. And you just kind of walk around going, you know, like, hey, ladies, and you're really living it up.

But then you come here, you live in Colorado all year. It's, instead of funk, it's like covers of funk or. Yeah, the cover song thing, TMS, all this other stuff. It's all just a cover. Oh, well, yeah, that explains why it's called Coverville, because it's my cover. It's your cover. Yeah. I hope that answered your question, Coldersnack, if that is your real name.

and it also depends on the snack. All right, real quick here, colder snack, here's your secret life. You, at night, when no one... You prefer hot pockets. That guy likes nothing about hot pockets, cold burritos, microwave burritos,

pizza. That's a secret life. Pizza rolls because they'll melt your face off. A hotter snack, exactly. That's perfect. Yeah, TVZ gun says the pimp thing explains all the things. travel I did to newspapers that I used to do. Yes, exactly because Canton, the hotbed

of prostitution. Yeah. Oh, yeah, Canton, Ohio. I wasn't visiting the repository. You were given suppositories, if you know what I'm saying. That's right. If you know what I'm saying. Yeah. Well, that's great. That's a fun, we took a fun road. And I don't know why that came. That just sounds right to me. I don't know why. You need to be just that cool decked out. You know, it's because you wear the hats and the shirts and the funny stuff at like nerdtaculars or whatever. Pimps wear funny hats. Yeah. Pimp.

If I'm not voting on a title, it's the title that says pimps wear funny hats by the end of the show. We're doing it wrong. We got to get that in there. Whoever's in charge. Whoever wants to get that one and get it in. All right? Perfect. Excellent.

All right. We're going to play a game today. Oh, I like the link is in here. This is very convenient. Yeah, I put that in there just for you because I saw you were in. in the game yet. Yeah, very convenient. I always forget the Wednesdays mostly. Mostly. That's what I've been trying to do lately, although here's the deal. I really need to get back to doing the What's Your Nerd games, because I like doing those two. They just take so much longer

because, you know, I have a bunch of questions to write. Yeah, it's a bunch of work. It's a bunch of work. Yeah. It's not like we're just sitting around doing nothing. So, so anyway, we're going to play Babel Royale, but to do that, we got to bring Dunaway in. Gosh, dang it, all my links are wrong. here we go okay so we got done away let's pull him in okay all right and then oh we hit create group great and then we play this song whoop all right that music means it's time for babble royale tadpooly feud edition which begins here shortly uh to get things started off though we're going to welcome our good pal mr brian dunaway to the show hello brian oh hi scott and brian oh hi how are you guys doing this uh i don't know how the weather is there rainy here it's actually

uh rainy up until today today finally we're on a kick of like 70 degree weather for a while so this world is too small your weather should be like snowing and then it should be like a hundred degrees here well we had snow yesterday yeah brine okay i feel better now we had some of the mountains we had some of the mountains but none of the valley but i feel like brian and i have the same weather pattern right now. It's like warmer and sunny here today. It was raining yesterday. Like we're just in the mountains, man. And you know, as much as I complain about how weird the springs

are in this part of the world, and they are weird, they're just kind of can't decide what they want to be. It's going to get real hot soon enough. It's fine. I'll take whatever we got. It's fine. I'm not going to complain. You know what? No, I'd like it to be warmer sooner because I really need to get some practice rides in for the big for the big rides. Oh, that's true. Yeah. You got a lot and a half away. That's going to go quick.

It is going to go quick. Yes, because a lot of those weekends are stuff, right? Like I've got a trip coming up next weekend. I've got a family thing over Father's Day where we're going to be out of town. So, yeah, it's nuts. Oh, Father's Day. Yeah, remember that? I forget we get our own day.

You get our own day. If you have sired offspring, you can enjoy that day. If you have knocked up a lady, then you get to celebrate that day. Congratulations. Yeah. I never understood the term knocked up. We'll get to that later. We have a listener on the line

who is going to be participating today in the Babbel Royale fun. Let's find out who it is. Thanks for holding. Who's this? Hey, guys. It's Mike from Chicago. Mike from Chicago.

Mike E.C. 14 in the pool. Hey, man. Oh, cool. Mike ABC 14. Yep. He sound like a chill dude. You seem real chill today. I'm a total chill dude.

I got my second shot this morning, so I'm just awaiting the tiredness. Oh, yeah. That'll happen. Well, congratulations. Well done. Welcome to the properly inoculated over here. We are happy to have you. We're going to have you as part of this good fun, but we can't do any of it until Brian kind of explains what's going on. So, Brian, would you please explain?

Yeah, it all hinges on me, doesn't it? All right. Well, I've made you wait long enough. It's time to play the Tad Pooley feud. I've surveyed the Tadpool on some nerdy topics, and Scott and Brian are going to have to predict the answers that they gave us. It is Scott and Brian's job to see how many of those answers they can guess. Mikey BC14, your job is more important than ever because you're going to be working with either Scott or Brian and if your team wins, you get a prize package that includes a copy of Rover Mechanic Simulator. That sounds fun, like you're piloting a rover over Mars.

Oh, so it's not a dog simulator. Okay. Well, it might be, I don't know. Okay. You're working on dogs. Over. Look at it. It's Van.

Hey, man. We have a visitor who wants to say something. Hi, do you want to say something to everybody? What do you have to say? Say hi. What? That was awesome. That was awesome.

That was awesome. Holy shit. That blew my mind. All right. I'll come see him soon. You guys are here all day? Oh, yeah. Awesome.

Okay. They're all here all day. Okay. Sorry, Brian. Europa. Y-O-U-Ropa. And those are your two Steam games. And you also get,

keep you, I don't even know what he, I don't know what that was. He's never done that before. That was weird. It's a great audio clip. Yeah, that's pretty good. All right.

So if both of you, looks like both of you were logged into the game, I will give you your first or your question. So put your hands on your buzzers and get ready to answer this. We asked 500 tadpoolers. Top 10 answers on the board. We asked them, name your favorite Marvel Comics villain that didn't necessarily appear in movies. I thought I wouldn't get that

Because it seemed like it took a while It did take a while I mean they may have appeared in movies But they don't have to appear in Excuse my language Sorry about that That's where I was trying to That's where I was stopping and I'm like

But but but go ahead So Okay but now I'm confused The way Brian said that Let me rephrase it again here Name your favorite Marvel Comics villain They don't have to have appeared In an MC youth or in a film

to qualify so you could name some weird villain that hasn't yet made an appearance in any movies. Okay, that's perfect. So I'm going to I'm going to just get the big ones out of the way. Let's say, let's go with

Thanos. Thanos. Show me. Thanos. He's inevitable, you know. Number two. Number two answer. One answer. Yeah, he's number two. All right. Yeah. What do you got there? Done.

I was going to say Dr. Doom until he added that little twist the end where it's like didn't necessarily have to be in a movie. I'm like he was in a movie. Go ahead. Well, if you were going to say him anyway. Doome. Say Doom. All right. Dr. Doom has

still has not appeared well in any Marvel film. Yeah, he's been in the movie. Yeah. Just not well. No, he has. Just not well. Yeah. Poorly. Show me, show me Dr. Doom. All right, sweet. Number four, Scott gets to

to start here. Scott will be playing with Mikey BC 14. Me and Mike. All right. Mike, I have a feeling that Modoc's on there just because Brian's all into Modoc and this is the Tadpool, so they probably said Modok.

Yeah, don't you think? I mean, like, I don't know, it feels like it's Tadpool. They got a, somebody said Modoc. So Brian, Modok. All right. Show me. Modoc.

Oh, wow. Way down the list. Okay. It's still on there, though. Still on there. I love how you think this. Ibit has influenced, like he phrased the question. No, no, what I mean is, like, he's asking Tadpoolers, and on this show, I swear,

Modoc comes up almost as much as Mad Max Fury Road. He is a constant in our lives. I don't mean Brian, like, is nonstop about it. I just mean, if we're, if any villain in the Marvel universe of any sort comes up on this show, it's Modoc. It's Modoc. It's true. All right.

What's back to us? By the way, Modoc, Claire asks, Modoc is an acronym. he totally is he's a mechanical organism designed only for killing that's right i think i got that right that's amazing people are also really excited about the the show coming up in uh in about a week and a half yeah that's going to be great i love it very excited about that um all right well you guys you and mike e bc continue on the board there sorry chat got to put that up there okay uh mike uh anything magneto maybe what you think of that yeah he was on my mind i was also thinking based on the trailer that dropped yesterday.

They may be one of those characters. Oh, right. Right. Well, hold on to those. That may have been Xavier in your mind. Yeah. Magneto has the... Let's do Magneto, because he can move the metal around and whatnot.

He's cool. Sure. Show me, Magneto. Number three. Number three. Very good. Okay. Let's talk about that trailer, and let's not talk about it, but let's, because we don't

want to get Brian ideas, but, uh, yeah, let's, so you're thinking, carnage, maybe? Yeah, that's that I was thinking. Okay, can the Spider-Man. All right. Let's say carnage. Let there be carnage. Now, this survey was done last month.

I was by to say, yeah. Oh, well, still. Yeah. Okay. All right. Show me carnage. Oh. Yeah, people are still excited for carnage number eight on the list.

You know what, if it's gotten really good at, that misdirect of, you're sure you want this one. Oh, you're sure? Moron. That's right. It's gotten very good at that. Pride. I pride myself. on that. Yeah, that's pretty good. I've ruined many

a birthday for Tristan with that. Oh, oh, well, the thing you want. We turned out to be really expensive. So, we got it for you anyway. There you go. All right. So if we're back to, just trying to think of like from the films. Maybe Doc Doc.

Yeah, of course. Everyone loves him. Yeah, Alfred Molina's Doc Ack, please. All right. Yeah, but only his. Yeah, only his. Because he didn't have that bowl haircut. Show me Dr. Otto Octavius. Yeah, number five.

I love these guys, these characters whose names are just conveniently close to the thing they become with all the arms and stuff. Noise the crap out of me. All right. Let's see. Man, we're missing number one. What are we forgetting that's like at the top? I can't even imagine what is in that spot right now. All right.

So Thanos is our big bad there. who else who else in the who's bigger than than than Thanos I don't know we could say who's bad in Thor like Thor movies um there's a few of them but like mainly okay last one was hell yeah or whatever name is hell yeah uh how do you consider do you consider loki oh loki's the bad totally absolutely absolutely I mean he's He's an adorable one, but still he's in Villan Town. So, yeah, we're going to say Loki. Villantown, all right.

Show me Loki. Oh, number one, dude. If people are excited for Modoc, they're even more excited for Loki. As am I. Yeah, we get that show coming up, too. That's pretty soon, right? And the ladies love Hittleston. Like a week?

Yeah, a couple weeks, I think, right? First week of doing anything, because I remember. A month from Monday. Yeah, a month, okay. June 9th is when it comes out. That's too long. They should do it now. All right.

Too long a gap between Winter Soldier, Falcon Winter Soldier, and Loki. I agree. All right. So we got these three left, six, nine, and ten. Six, nine, and ten. And, uh, well, you know, we, if we, if we say carnage, do we, do we say that on them, too, Scott? Well, yeah, give it. Yes, because I think that's how people see.

And by Brian saying, God damn it, I'm thinking he thought he was going up. I mean, yeah, let's say Venom, because it's a mixed, you know, Venom is obviously, you know, he's, he's an anti-hero, but also sometimes a rogue, and his comics, he's sort of in hero mode now, but anyway, let's say Venom, let's do it. All right. All right. Show me. Eddie Brooks, Alderigo. Number six. Number six. That's right.

All right. That leaves one slot open. And if we get this wrong, or no, two slots, sorry. Yeah, two. I mean, to be technicalist. If we get these wrong, I mean, if you want to really get down to it. Is there any way Dunaway can win? Is there a window for him?

He's mathematically eliminated. He was mathematically eliminated before you guys got Venom, unfortunately. Okay. It's mathematically eliminated before we start this one. I'm sending him out, yeah, so. Let's see, we got Loki, Thanos, Magneto, Doom, Doc Ock, Venom, Meldon, Carnage. Oh, maybe Ultron's on there, maybe? Okay, we'll do, we'll try Ultron.

I don't feel that great about this, but let's do, let's do Ultron. Show me that sweet robot with a voice like James Spader. Ah, shit. Oh. All right, don't way. But we wouldn't have vision if we didn't have the Ultron. Yeah. Finally, Brian gets to play.

Right. I'm going to say my favorite, this is my favorite bad guy in all the Marvel Universe. And they haven't been able to bring him to screen yet. And I just, I want him to, Galactus. Well, he was a, he was a cloud in that, yeah, that was nice. He was like, oh, he's a cloud. Yeah, that sucks. I think I see it in the cloud.

That sucks. Yeah. I'm telling you right now, they're, if they do that fantastic for a movie, and they are, if they don't try to get Galactus in there somehow, then what are we, what are we even doing? You got to make it work. It feels like Galactus has to be the big bad in, uh, yeah, and the MCFF. The guy eats planets for hell's sakes. He does.

He's a planet eater. He gave a silver surfer. Yeah. That's right. All right. Show me Galectus. Are you kidding me? Honestly, I thought you'd had it because that's a tad pool answer, man.

Galactus number 12, by the way. Oh, he's on the, okay, he's in the top 20. He's on there, but he's just low. Wow. Ultron all the way down at 18. Yep. All right. Well, double shot, Mike.

You got anything that jumps out of your, uh, jumps out of your, You do a gnaug in here? What was the guy in the last Spider-Man movie? Oh, with the ball on his head. The Gyllenhaal guy. Yeah, Mysterio. Mysterio. Let's do Mysterio.

All right. All right. Show me. It's one of my favorite. Actually, next to Modoc, my favorite villain. Show me Mysterio. Really? Wow.

Number 13 on the list. just below Galactus As a matter of fact I thought they did a good job With that I thought they did too Yeah He looked cool

It's a little retconny But it's fine Yeah They all are All right Brian You'll never see Oh that's right It's back to me

Oh shoot I was I was space now Because I'm like I lost that I wonder what I can do later I'm gonna make some stupid joke About DC comics And I'm like

It should be paying attention That's right How about Everybody's favorite bad guy uh general zod just kidding general zad

that's not bad though ego how about that ego that would be yes he's kind of like a yeah okay I didn't think about the space guy he was going to know of course not who could like ego

Please tell me that's on there. Show me red skull. What? Number 11, I believe. No, I'm sorry, 14. Number 14 would have been red skull. Yeah. Brian, you got one last answer in you that's better than ego. Wow, that was tough. That was kind of grasping his straws with ego. um not really a bad guy somebody didn't think i'm thinking like they're not really bad guys they're just kind of on the fence billy eyeless it doesn't matter it's just got to be what they think

yeah billy ilish think she's the bad guy gonna go with gray hulk he was just such a jerk just smarty jerk no way that's on there show me gray hulk All right. So first off, congratulations to Mikey V.C. 14. Well done. Yeah, here's this for you. You're a winner. Chicken dinner. You win.

The two missing answers. So this one, a couple of people in the chat room said, I was surprised that it never came up, as you guys were discussing it. But probably because he was seen more in the Netflix stuff than in, um, Kingpin. Kingpin, exactly, right? Of course, Kingpin. Yeah. People love the Kingpin. especially in the Spiderverse

That was really good there Yes, right, it's true And then this is another one that you guys did mention Well, Scott, you mentioned this very briefly From the second Thor No, the third Thor movie Third Thor movie Hela

Hela! Hela! Of course Hela good Nice. People like Hela? I mean, yeah She's great, dude, she's awesome She's good in the comics but I love her I loved her in that movie. She was amazing yeah uh well that means your winner my nickname in high school was kingpin oh was it you were king oh was it really how did i forget it yeah my nickname was uh tripod but i'm not telling you why anyway it's always carrying around a totally different reason up here are the ones that uh that you guys

didn't guess uh making our way down the list here mystique uh green goblin barren zimo did you think about the goblins yep the goblins yeah um eric kilmonger scarlet witch she He did start out as a villain. Captain America, I don't know what people are thinking, but two people said it. Sure. Dark Phoenix. Good choice there. Oh, duh.

This one, this one cracked me up. The favorite Marvel villain, Disney. Yeah, it's hilarious. Someone in the chat, I just pot the chat back up. Somebody said Darth Vader, and I guess technically that's true now because they're part of the Marvel family. No, he's a Disney villain. He's not a Marvel villain. Yeah, but you can get a Marvel.

You can go buy Marvel comics. with Vader in him. Oh, that's true. That's true. Yeah, right. Good point. I don't know if they've done any crossover, but they probably don't. Dormammu, Emma Frost,

Darkwing, Duck, Jeff Bridges. Jeff Bridges. Kang, the Conquer, Paste Pot Pete. Somebody said the penguin. Skeletor. Hold on. U.S. government agencies. Yon do.

Does Marvel do Heman adeptations or anything? Not to my knowledge, though. That would be awesome. You know somebody said Newman? Newman. All right. Well, on that note, here, Skeletorre, we'll give him a minute to laugh. All right.

Hey, you did it, Mike. Well done. Now, here's the trick. You just need to send Brian an email. Coverville at gmail.com. He will send you your codes and you will walk off triumphant into the night. I hope you don't get bad symptoms in the next day. Thanks, guys.

Thanks for having me. I appreciate it. It's great. Great to have you, man. We'll talk to you soon. Bye now. He seems like a nice guy. No, I'd hang out with that guy.

I'd hang out with him. I'd hang out with Kingpin. No, no offense to the rest of you, but I would hang out with Mike. I would totally do that. That's fine, you know. Go, why don't you go hang out with Mike? I'm going to Chicago. I'll see you guys later. Yeah.

Done away, you did it. You came in, you did it. Hey, yeah, we didn't do a boop show this week, but we're going to do one next week. But more importantly than that, this weekend, Film Sack, the four of us, me, you, Randy, and Brian here, are all doing an episode about Predator One, the first Predator. I can hardly wait. I mean, some people, including me, think it's the best Arnold movie. I still do.

I think it's my favorite Schwarzenegger movie. And we'll see if I'm right, because it's been 10 years. That's because he hardly talks at all. He mostly just slinks around the forest. And looks badass doing it. It looks badass. It's just a really well-made, really cool, filmed badass. Is that how you remember it?

That's how I remember it. Your opinion. If I get that, I may have it wrong, but that's what we'll find out this weekend. but this feels like an important film sack. We haven't been able to get this one on the record for 10 years. It's available. We're doing it. Do your homework, watch it.

It's on HBO Max, I think. No. Prime. No. Netflix. No. I don't know. It's on a streaming service.

It is on a streaming service. Go to just watch.com and search for it. Yeah, Brian's got the 3D DVD, whatever thing, right? It's not 3D, is it? It is 3D. Oh, my. Tulu, by the way. way Hulu has it. Hulu has it. The one I didn't mention. Hulu.

Fair enough. Brian, you have a great day. Is there anything you'd like to tell us before I kick you out of this chat? Sure. Join me tomorrow night on Thursday doing the graveyard keeper with Kit London, who's usually in the chat room. We do that every Thursday and have so for almost six months on Twitch. Nice. Six months of graveyard keeper. That's a lot. It's well an hour and a half at a time. It takes some time. You take your time. Well, bye then. All right. He's gone now. He's gone. He has left.

By Brian. Bye Brian. Well done, everybody. Now, this. And dance by the light of the moon. Time for today's news. Brought to you by. Brought to you by.

Was it any good? Well, was it? Head over to frogpants.com slash any good and find out. That's right. I did an episode about the Beverly Hillbillies, one of Brian's favorite things in the world. Yeah. Well, the TV show I really liked. I hated the movie.

Oh, yeah. Well, the, so the, so, so the way this thing works is I, in real time, watch it and record while I'm watching it. So you get the audio from the episode and my commentary. But we go and find one of the more controversial episodes of a TV show or one of the most popular rated by IMDB or something is the most popular of that series. The Jefferson's one I did was like super racist and weird. Anyway. You did. I love losing.

too, right? Which one did you do for I Love Lucy? We did. According to IMDB, the most popular one is not the chocolate factory one, but instead is this one where it's called the Great Train Heist. And it's basically them on vacation on a train. And the premise is every 10 minutes or so, Lucy pulls this cord that stops the train and it pisses everybody off. That's the train episode. Yeah. I would have put like, I would have thought the Vitamita Vegaman, the Chocolate Factory. Yep. I was surprised. I just went with Top Raid and I went, well, this, and it wasn't, it was fine, but it wasn't anything special. And I'm, and I'm pretty sure that I Love Lucy is still good, a hundred percent on the shoulders of her being good. She's amazing. She's like a really, like, has there, I'm not sure there's ever been somebody quite like her in comedy. There's something very unique about Lucille Ball. And I can't believe they, they picked Nicole Kidman to play her in the bio, pick as opposed to what's her face from Debra Messing because Debra Messing is like a perfect Lucy. That's a good point. I don't know why they didn't use her either. They should have. When you get to that

great episode of Mod, the big controversial episode of Mod, Oh yeah, we'll get to that. Also, somebody... I'm not kidding. I wrote it down. I'm just now. Did you? Yeah. Mod's dilemma. Yeah. Also, there's a, there's that episode. It's a two-parter, so I haven't decided how to do it, but that one

with um uh in uh different strokes where arnold and his friend oh yeah where arthur carlson uh gets a bike shop and uh he's a molester and they almost get kind of molested and it's a one of those weird special episode tvs does get molested if i'm like the little redhead kid oh does he often i didn't know that went bad that way well we'll find out how does that sort of thing in the 80s where they were trying to teach us a lesson how does it hold up today find out at frogpans dot com slash any good or wherever we get your podcast. All right. The owners of the Confora Bakery in Milwaukee are a couple of smart cookies because the owners of this bakery.

Ah, smart cookies. Yeah, I get it. They print burglary suspect's picture on sugar cookies. That's how they're going to catch this guy. Oh, that's fantastic. That's pretty good. Yeah. They're also known as the Lakeside Bakery.

They were burglarized. They were burgled on April 19th by an unidentified suspect. who fled into the night with ill-gotten cash and equipment. Owners Karen and Eric didn't have much going on, but what they did, excuse me, what they did have was an image of the suspect captured on their security cameras. So we made a delicious sugar cookie with his image on them, says the owner. They announced us on Facebook on May 1st. Thin mints via drone.

Oh, that's a whole different thing. Yeah, whoops. The idea, Karen told the Milwaukee Journal, or Journal Sentinel. Did you go there? The Journal Sentinel. I did. Totally went to the Milwaukee. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

That's awesome. Yeah. The only times I went to Wisconsin were for the Madison. Man, Madison newspaper, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. I've only been there for a Brewer's game once. Oh, really? Yeah, we were there in Chicago for most of that trip, and then we cut over into Milwaukee for that game and then came back.

That's right. Oh, yeah, and that's, of course, I went there for Summerfest. A few years ago, we went and saw the Fawns statue, and we saw garbage perform, which is awesome. You mean the band, not a pile of garbage? Well, they didn't keep parts of the park up very well. So we saw the band garbage perform, and then on our way back to the hotel, we saw, because of the wind was blowing. We saw actual garbage perform. Oh, so it performed in a way.

Okay. Yes, exactly. And this is when you weren't pimping. No, I was setting up Oh, that's right. That's what you were there for. That's right. Forget about this paper talk.

We know what you're there for. Exactly. Strutting around downtown Milwaukee with his cane and his fur coat. Let's see. They wanted the community to identify the suspect. Why not put it on a cookie? We invite the Bayview community to come in and take a bite out of the thief while supplies last, they said on their Facebook post. Nice.

it has been or he has been identified the baker later wrote in an update thank you everyone who's responded so apparently the cops have him although no direct arrest or comment from the milwaukee police department yet so i like stories i love it though that's a great what a great way to turn lemons into lemonade you know yeah like if you're gonna do if you're a baker like it's perfect for who you are you know yeah right exactly what would we do someone robbed us what would we do just pop I do a podcast about it. It would begin with some, it would begin with some, uh, some NPR music. Yeah. You know, that day, I didn't really think I'd wake up to find that somebody had gotten into my house. You're one of those beatboxers who somehow managed to get words into their beatboxing. That's right.

Those guys are impressive, man. Those guys that can like sing during beatboxing. I don't know how they do it. A man who fled with a tiger has been caught. Yeah, I saw. Oh, he finally got caught. That's good. The guy did.

He drove off in a white SUV. It was awesome. Yeah, it was pretty good. He got caught, but the animal's still at large. They can't find the cat. So no one knows where this tiger is. This happened in Houston. Houston authorities have captured a man who allegedly evade a police.

While housing a Bengal tiger in his yard, the tiger remains, as the article says, on the lamb. Ha, there's a tiger on the lamb. What does that mean? On the lamb? Yeah, no, no, no, that's a good question. I mean the origin. And trying to think of is, is it short for something? Let's see, I'm going to find out.

Yeah, on the lamb, etymology. On the lamb, according to Miriam Webster. Oh, stop. Don't show me ads. Okay, here we go. So trying to avoid being caught by the place. We get it. That part we get.

Do we have a... Oh, let's see. I can't find anything on the idioms origin. So, Random House Historical Dictionary of American Slang, J.E. Leiter defines the term as prison lingo for an act of running or flight, especially a dash to escape from custody. It was like an operation of pickpockets. After he secures the wallet, he will utter the word,

lamb. This means to let the man go and get out of the way as soon as possible. Really? Yeah, it really doesn't make sense. It grabs the wallet. Instead of going, yoink, like I would do, he goes, Lamb. Lamb.

I'm out of here. Where are you going? I'm on the lamb. Lighter speculates that may be rooted in the dialect, Scandinavian bird lamb, which is in the 1525, his wife soar lambing him, meaning to beat, pound, or strike. Jeez. Mark Twain used it twice, lambing the lady in 1855,

and lamb like all creation in 1865. both clearly meeting to beat. So beat it. Yeah, beat it. You're beat it. It's the fuzz. That's a really weird. Yeah.

Oh, here you go. Oh, no, this is just what you had. Never mind. I thought I found something new. I didn't. All right. Well, see also on the run. Take it on the lamb.

Run as fast as you can. Run for one's life. Run for life. It would be great if Mario's Speedwagon would have done. You're under the gun and you take it on the lamb. I dare say it would have made... Heard from a friend who... We'd still be talking about those guys and...

They would... Right, they'd still be around in 2020, cranking out new music, Ariel Speedwagon. There you go. All right, so back to this tiger guy. We got off the... Yeah, yeah, yeah. The new, the wannabe Tiger King. Yep.

Yes. We don't know where the tiger is. Victor Hugo, Servais, age 26, was out of bond or out on Bond for a prior murder charge. Oh, he was on a murder charge. First off, he got to love the name, Victor Hugo, Quivas. Oh, what did I say? Servos.

Quabas is correct. I can't remember something very different. That's much better. But the fact that the first part of his name is Victor Hugo, the author who wrote, uh, uh, uh, I have to look it up. Was it three musketeers? No, it was. Victor Hugo?

Victor Hugo. What was his, uh, Le Mizraub. Oh, hunchback. Hunchbeck was his other big thing. Oh, yeah, and less miserables. And less miserables, yeah. One other thing he did that I'm going to remember before I click this. Okay, because I was going to have threes, right?

How about... You said hunchback, right? I said hunchback, and lame is Rob. I guess that's all I know. I'm looking at the rest of this list, and yeah, no. Whoa, that dude lived at 83. That's a lot in his range. Born in 1802, died in 1885.

Wow. Well, well, well done, Victor Hugo. Now, Account of Monte Cristo was Dumas, I believe. Yeah, with Guy Richie. No, Guy Pearce, sorry, Guy Pearce. And the dude what played Jesus. That's right, exactly. Who's a little nutty now. What's his name? Jim Caviesel. All right. Moving on.

This guy's 26. Tiger. He already had a murder charge, which is nuts. Anyway, he was already out on bond for this murder charge. And then his neighbor notices, oh, he's got a big giant cat. I probably should call that in. Also, it's reported that he had monkeys, which are allowed in the city of Borza, or allowed in the city of Houston, says Borza. Sorry, there's no city named Borja.

Borsa, Texas. Owning a tiger is a violation of Houston law, however. Let's see, but it is legal under Texas state law with certain restrictions. So there are parts of, I guess, I don't know if the city overrides the city. state or how that works but oh Texas just make your minds up um Jose Ramos age 50 who lives next door was eating on Sunday evening when he looked at the window and saw a tiger sitting in his front yard I had to pinch myself was it was this real he says I doubt this real life do you think anyone ever went hold on a second oh I felt it it it must be real I pinched my

no one does that did do you think he did you think he uttered what the I want to I want to say he went full anime and went and went, uh-huh. Yes, I believe that. Yeah, that's what happened. Anyway, this guy, they caught him and the cat, they don't know where the cat is. I hope they find the cat.

I don't want him to shoot a cat. Yeah, okay, so the guy's caught, uh-oh, well. Yeah, cats out there still. He's on the lamb. Look for a lamb, and you'll find the tiger on him. Yeah, he'll be on the lamb. Right, right on top of it. Right on top of the lamb.

Well, speaking of being on top of things, and eating them. A man, this goes great with yesterday's story about old meat getting you high. Oh, the old meat getting you high? Oh, we have more. This is worse. A man eats raw chicken in post-workout meal and says vegetables make you weak.

So this is pretty great. On Saturday, a guy named Blazin Brady. Oh, my lord. Sure that's his name. Alpha male. Blazon Brady. Freaking bro dude guy, I'm sure.

Exactly. He posted a picture of his meal and said, post-workout meal, fresh, raw chicken, week-old steak I left in my fridge, and my favorite bacon, raw butter, and raw milk. He says, chicken is not bad. It all tastes fine. The meal is my standard meal, and I usually eat that I usually eat all the time. I eat mainly more steak over chicken, though, usually. His post-workout meal is fresh raw chicken. He's a real poet.

Yeah, he is, right? You can just, it's just using it out of him. Fresh raw chicken, weak old steak left in my fridge. His favorite, bacon, raw butter, raw milk. Let's see, moving on, he says, in the video, he says, it's not even that bad, bro. You guys are tripping. Okay, stay with me, Brian.

You guys are tripping. Like, I mean, you guys are terrified just because they are told there's bacteria in it. It's your natural diet. Like you literally naturally want to want to eat it. You literally, I want to read that again. He really has one to want to eat it. Yeah, you literally naturally want to want to eat it. Right.

You don't just want to eat it. You want to want to eat it. He says, it tastes the same. Like maybe it's not as good tasting. It's not like amazing tasting, but it doesn't taste effing bad. It's literally your normal diet. Here you go. And then he eats a piece of the raw chicken and says,

Two seconds. There you go. I just ate every single effing day. I eat it every single effing day. I'm not going to lie. I wash it down with milk to get used to it. When I first started because I didn't like the taste so much, now it's a lot easier. I still do the milk because it's easier to wash it all down, but it doesn't taste bad at all, bro. I could eat effing rotten meat. Two weeks old meat, bro. I don't give an F. I just like, it just all taste the same. Bro? Great. Oh, I hope blazing, see, you know, we joked about, oh, this seems like a problem that will solve itself. This one does seem like a problem that may eventually solve itself. Oh, but it'll annoy us until it does, though. It'll just drive us crazy. All right. Finally, this story, if you're a nurse or a phlebotomist, or I don't know who does these, but whoever you are, be careful, because this sucks.

A distracted nurse gave a woman six doses of COVID vaccine in a single shot. Oh. Six doses. Yep. 23-year-old Italian woman. Johnson and Johnson and Johnson and Johnson. Way too many Johnsons. A 23-year-old Italian woman was mistakenly given six doses of the Pfizer-Coronavirus vaccine all at once and was released from a hospital on Monday without having suffered any apparent adverse reactions.

That's good. The incident occurred on Sunday morning at the NOAA Hospital in Mesa in Tuscany. The patient was kept under observation for approximately 24 hours. hours in the hospital's emergency room. Doctor said she was given fluids, anti-inflammatories, and fever medications as preventative measures. This person at this time will certainly not have side effects, says Dr. Anatoly Alvinciety, Director of Infectious Diseases at NOAA Hospital.

She said, the Pfizer studies have shown that people received up to five times in normal doses do not suffer any real consequences. Really? What if you just got really good 5G coverage then? Just really good. How many chips does she have in her arm now? Exactly. Somebody in Germany and Israel had the same thing,

accidentally given five doses. They were okay. The patient did not have a fever. Didn't have any pain except for the pain of the inoculated site, nor any malifestations, whatever that means. She was a bit frightened, but we preferred to keep her here until morning. So she's fine. The point is, don't stress about it too much,

but also that's four other people that didn't get their damn. No, that's true, yeah. Look at that. Now, does she have to get, when she goes, for her three weeks, her follow-up dose, does she need to get the same amount? That's actually a great question.

That's a great question. No, it's not. Does it change? She won't have to. Does it matter at all? Probably doesn't, right? Probably doesn't. Yeah. Okay. Well, I'm just visualizing the nurse who's so distracted that she's like,

she's got the little vial sitting up on top of the needle and she's like doing this. Oh, yeah. No, I liked Queen's Gambit. Yeah, Queen's Gamb was really good. Did you like slowly pulling the plunger back? All right, I guess I better administer this shot. I like a queen's gambit.

It feels heavy than usual. I have Netflix only for this a show, she said. All right, we're going to take a break. When we come back, you know him, you love him. Tom Merritt will be here talking about tech. And a little recommendals after that, so stay tuned. Brian, we need a song to get us there. What do you got?

We do. And before we do that, I'm going to really quickly tell you about, So the bike thing, we're set. You know, you've donated. You guys are all awesome. Thank you for your donations for MS. The bike thing, I'm way up there in the leaderboard, and we've raised a lot of great money for MS. So now the other thing that I do, every year there's two charities that I go for, MS and Alzheimer's.

Now it's time to focus on the Alzheimer's because sadly, these two things, these two fundraising activities take place a week apart. And because of it being on Father's Day and because of this Father's Day trip I'm going on, I'm actually not going to be able to do the live stream on the day I normally would, which is called the longest day. It's part of this Alzheimer's thing called The Longest Day. So I'm going to figure out something else. Scott and I are talking, well, I need to really pitch it to Scott, this idea of us doing that Oculus-based D&D game with. Yeah, I saw it again yesterday.

I forgot the name of it, like Medio. Demio. Yeah, it looks really interesting. I want to try this. Yeah. I think we should do it. And you, me, Schleiker, and Dunaway, I think would be a great, a great four-person game to do this with. Yeah.

I think we should do it. I think we should do it. In the meantime, go to tiny.cc slash coverville ALZ, first three letters of Alzheimer's, 221, 2021. So that's Coverville, ALZ, 2021. And make you donation, five bucks, ten bucks, whatever. whatever. Let's really push it. And I'm going to figure out some sort of live stream bike thing to do as well for this as well. I'm going to go on a longer bike ride, one of the ones from North Denver to South Denver and try and do it via, try and do a whole live stream thing with the GoPro Hero 7 black that I'm holding in my hands right now. Big thanks to TVZon for helping me wrangle this thing. Nice. Anyway, so Tiny.cc slash Coverville, ALZ 2021.

All right, let's get to the song today. And this one comes to us from earshot media, courtesy of Mutant League Records. These guys are great. It's a Cincinnati, Ohio pop punk group, five-piece group called Settle Your Scores. They actually just signed with Mutant League Records. And so this is their first single release. they've got that you know that that kind of

more mature blink 182 sound and this this is one of those songs it's like as an old guy a song that harkens back to the heady days of 1999 is kind of funny because I was 30 years old in 1999

but if you are fans of things in 1999 you probably can relate to this song from Settle Your Scores here's the new single 1999 Some would take me back to 1999 What I would give for one more night

I'm feeling carefree And living easy If I could just go back in time I I remember Lying in the world Feltz Not a worry

weighing on my mind never thought I would fall behind my life moved fast that I couldn't keep up tried clinging to the past but it wasn't enough used to play tando now I'm paying with some maybe I've already passed my prime someone take me back to 1990 what I would give for one more night I'm feeling carefree and living easy if I could just go back in time to In 1999, then I could finally get things right I wish the good days moved like a mixtic that I could just rewind.

They're playing a star on the radio, like 182s rumpin through my stereo. Catching cartoons every Saturday, never thought everything would change. All at once, 20 years flew by, watched minutes turn a month in the blink of it, I used to play with high wheels, I'm paying carbons Maybe I've already past my prime

Someone take me back to 1990 What I would do for one more night I feel like carefree and living easy If I could just go back in time To 1999 Then I can finally get things right

I wish the good test Roved like a mix hit That I could just rewind 99 problems. So it's going to stop. And the head force is no true. We're gonna'

99 problems. One way to solve them. Turn back the clock. Make it stop. Make this end. 99 problems. One way to solve them. Turn back the clock.

Make it stop. Make this end. I'm begging. I'm pleading. Someone take me to Nineteen ninety-nine What I would give for one more night I'm feeling carefree and living easy

If I could just go back in time to Nineteen99 Then I could finally get things right I wish the goodness would like a mix hit Then I could just rewind to 19909 We're free again When I think

Nineteen ninety-nine Howie Could you just be 1999 I wish the good news Milk of Magnesia Philip's milk of magnesium. kind of laxative doctors recommend most often.

That makes sense. Never underestimate a Japanese businessman. I can't believe you made me say that. This is the morning stream. Your Scores, and the song is 1999, and as J.C. Calhoun points out, if you go to their website, which is settle your scores.c.o, it is, it looks like it was built in

1999. Like, it's Oh, awesome. Full of comic sands, flashing, rotating gifts, and... Perfect. It's a perfect throwback for all of our internet ads. It looks just like, like, MySpace. Oh, this

is awesome. That's great. All right. Go check out. In the meantime, check this out. With the computer, as with any tool, the concept and direction must come from the man. I still think that's true, and thankfully Tom Merritt plays the role of the man, and he's here today to talk about it. Hello, Tom.

Hello, Brian and Scott. Hi. Hello, Tom. Hello. I swear that smiley face guy behind you is leaning further over than he was last time. Every time. It's like the Mona Lisa for you. Every time it's just like... It's like Veronica's sausage. It is like Veronica's

Does Tom know about Veronica's I don't know There's Tom Let's regalia us What's the word Not regalus Endorce for a minute Let's get you cut up

You can regale me Here it is Veronica once said this Just normally Saus Yeah she says this right here Mmm sausage All right

And then someone shrunk it Or elongated it And Brian thinks it's longer Every time we hear it And so I'm going to play it now And we'll see if it still sounds longer Um, sausage. Brian, still longer?

Still longer? Like you're elongating it every time you play? Because I was familiar with sausage and even the elongated version. I did not know that Brian was having a shirky effect. That's exactly what I'm happy. We'll play it for you in a couple weeks, and you'll swear that it sounds like it's longer

the next time we play it for you. One of these times, you know, one of these times I'm just going to knock him over. Yeah. Brian Scott's going to go, see! I told you. That's right. Or I'm going to mess with that thing, F. Brian, over and just, like, make it longer.

Just make it a little longer. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I've been secretly doing it and you didn't know. Right. I would totally, if you told me you were doing that, I would 100% believe you. You would absolutely believe. Of course you would. Hey, Tom's here, and it's the Daily Tech News show's own Tom Merritt.

He's the, he curates that business, and it's fantastic. Wednesdays are great because I get to go on there. But all the days that the show is on is great. And you are probably hunting down some stories right now. What's going on? on out there. Indeed, the story hunt is on. One of the things, I don't know if we'll revisit it on today's daily tech news show. We talked about it on Monday's show, but it's certainly still in the news is the colonial pipeline hack. Oh, yeah. And one of the reasons it's still in the news, it happened over

the weekend, but it's still in the news now because you're starting to see gas shortages in parts of the South, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, even up into Maryland and New Jersey. And there's a lot of misinformation and a lot of misunderstanding out there. Colonial says that they have plenty of supply still, and they are expecting to restart the pipeline at the end of the week. But gas stations are running out of gas. So the question is, are they running out of gas because people are hearing the story

about colonial pipeline being shut down, running to the gas station to fill up before they normally would, and therefore, you know, a toilet paper, like run on gas. It's a toilet paper situation. Yeah. Or is colonial saying, well, we've got plenty, but it's not actually getting there. My guess is it's probably more of the hoarding than it is the supply at this point.

Colonial pipeline, if you don't know, suffered a ransomware attack on its information systems. That means like it's office computers, but out of an abundance of caution, shut down its control systems on the pipeline to make sure that it didn't spread. They wanted to make sure that it didn't get into the control systems because then people can do a lot of damage to the pipeline. So far, there's been no damage to the pipeline. They're doing aerial surveillance. Everything's good with the pipeline. They expect to be able to restore service by the end of the week. They've already restored service on some lateral lines and some of the smaller lines. But the worry is that if the shortage goes on more than five days, then there are with if the shutdown goes on more than five days, you will start to see the effects of a shortage

into the supply system. American Airlines, I think, is already having some long haul flight stop for refueling. Again, that may be because of a shortage of delivery. It may be because of abundance of caution. It may be both. But we're getting to the point where whether it's hoarding or not isn't going to matter that this pipeline's been shut down long enough that it's going to cause an effect. And, you know, we're all checking our watches.

They said by the end of the week, it's Wednesday. It's not the end of the week yet. but by the end of the week would hopefully mean before the end of the week. And this is a really bad attack. Ransomware, if you don't know, can get into a system in all kinds of ways. With so many people working from home, somebody could have gotten fished, tricked into handing over credentials. That would allow malicious actor to get into a network and plant some ransomware. More often than not, it doesn't even need that sophisticated of an attack.

You just get somebody to open an attachment that they shouldn't have opened or click on a link that they shouldn't have. that locks up the computer and it propagates through the network that way. Either way, once it's encrypted your network, you either have to pay the ransom or you have to figure out how to restore from a clean backup. We're not getting any information out of Colonial about the details of the attack, but it's taking long enough that they probably don't have an easy clean backup. I think with the attack happening Friday, they would have been able to restore by now, although it's a very complex system. Maybe that's not true. My guess is they've got partial backups, and they're going very carefully through the system to make sure that they're eliminating the ransomware. But it's lasted long enough that this is a pretty severe attack, just on their office computers, just on their information systems.

And again, out of abundance of caution, they don't want it to spread to the control system. So it hasn't, they haven't turned the control systems back on. There's a lot of thought out there about, you know, this is an attack on a pipe. that we've been warning about for years, which is partially true. We've been warning that these SCADA systems and the control systems need upgrades. And that's still true. If they had better security, maybe you didn't have to shut them down so severely. But it's not an attack on the control system. That's important to remember as well. Yeah. So correct me if I'm wrong, but my takeaway from this so far is that there are massive

older systems in this country that need addressing. You know what I mean? Like we got to get our head around. I'm really glad you asked that question because yes, a lot of the energy systems are legacy. There are lots of examples of systems

that, you know, left the default password admin one, two, three or something on them because, hey, the only way you're going to access that is to drive out to the pump and type it in. More and more control systems getting networked. means that that becomes less secure, even though it wasn't terribly secure before. That's all true, but that's not what's happening here. The only impact of that is that's caused them to shut down the pipeline while they fix the other problem.

The attack did not take advantage of any of those vulnerabilities. Okay. I saw a picture of people just loading giant gas can canister things, like rubber made size like this big, just load in their cars. and all I could think of was are you going to have room for those with all the toilet paper you have stored in your I know right where you're going to put them and you don't want to store the gas

next to the toilet paper because that's a firehouse no that seems like a real bad combination to me so anyway I guess be careful out there we haven't seen price hikes here like at local stations right and this this pipeline serves about 45% of the east coast

south and east coast so if you're to the west of colonial pipeline starts around Houston on the Gulf Coast where the refineries are and runs up to Linden, New Jersey, just outside New York City. So if you're along that pipeline, you're more likely to feel the effects of this

than if you're in another direction from it. Yeah, I'd wonder when it first started happening. Usually, sometimes these things have a way of permeating the business, like even if you hear news that, oh, somebody in the OPEC said something controversial in an OPEC meeting and then suddenly everybody's 50 cents higher in their gas.

I thought for sure this would have that. like a quick ripple effect because even if it has zero effect on it, it's a chance for the business to just brace itself and say, well, no, we're going to go up just to, you know, kind of cover everything. And they didn't do it so far. So I guess that's good. I don't know how to, I'm not sure quite how to take it. But our gas prices haven't gone up on the eastern side or the western side of the country. And so everyone hope that holds, I guess. Yeah, man. I mean, I listen, folks, if you're not from Generation X, welcome to our youth.

It's the 70s again. Gas lines and inflation. I have a very vague memory of lines at gas stations when I was like five or six years old, and it's really vague, but I do have some memory of that. So, yeah, just a taste of the 70s. Go listen to, I don't know, some disco. That's right.

Some other stuff. Go fire up that great Earth Wind and Fire CD, I'm sorry, LP, or A-track. A-track, yeah, what are you talking about? get some bell bottoms and you're all set. All right. Hey, Tom, as always, this stuff's better when you listen to it on the Daily Tech News show because those guys actually pay attention to detail and get the stuff right and we'll shoot straight. So check them out on the Daily and today, of course, at 2.30, that will happen once again.

Anything else going on that you'd like to promote or mention? Yeah, if you want the details on the Colonial Pipeline more than we talked about here, check out Monday's Daily Tech News show. We did a deep dive into it then. and none of the facts of the situation have changed since then other than some of the gas stations here running out of supply. So that's still a useful segment to listen to. And if you want to be like Merovina and say, hey, what cell phone carrier should I use? She just emailed me and asked me.

And that's because she subscribes to my newsletter. And that's what you can do when you subscribe to Freetom Newsletter at Freetomnewletter.com. Highly recommend it. Tom Merritt, everybody. Ace Detect on Twitter. We'll see you later today. Bye. Bye now.

That thing's leaning closer to me. I can feel it. I can feel it. That's right. I know what I feel. Brian, we're calling Nicole. That's what's happening now. Okay.

All right. And we're going to bring her in here and we're going to recommend all this place up. I feel like we need to. Yeah. I've seen a smattering of things this week. week, but the thing I zeroed in on, I think, is the biggest surprise. I don't know why I'm surprised. I guess I'm just, well, we'll get to it.

We'll get to it. Okay. All right here's this. This right here. Hey, look who it is, everybody. It's Nicole Spagg Nolo, right over there. Whoops, there you are. On camera, looking at us today from Colorado.

Hello, welcome. How are you? I'm good. How are you? No Mark in the background, no dog bed. Douggy's right here. He's in a different place. I think about Dougie sometimes.

I think it's because you put up a bunch of video of him and now he's in my head. So there you go. He's a cutie. So Mitchell's versus the Machines is on our TV all the time. And I swear God, it's like Dougie in that movie. Oh, yeah. He's that dog. Totally dog.

Yep, for sure. That movie, I hope everybody took our recommendation last week. watch it because it's so freaking and good. Yeah, Tina, I still need to watch it, but it'll happen soon. Oh, man, I loved it. It's so fun. So good. All right. We're going to get to recommendals here. This is where we talk about streaming

stuff we've seen over the week, and we'd like to recommend. Do you find folks, hence the name? Brian, you always begin. We have two from you this week. What's your setup for your first one? So before I even say those, I do want to give a big shout out to Scott's Recommendal from last week. Nobody. I watched

it last night. And it's great. It is so good. It's good, right? It's not just a John Wick rip-off. It's more than that. I think it's way, it's, yeah, nobody, nobody beats John Wick. You know, I've yet to watch John Wick. Oh, Nicole. You got to watch John Wick. Yeah, I don't know why. I just have, we haven't had a chance. You should watch that series. It's great. No, it does that thing, it does that thing, and I'm sure we did talk about it, that fighting movies tend to do where if you're guys just a total badass, or your lady, he's a total badass, they just land punches and they never get hit themselves. And Bob Odenkirk's character, nobody. I can't remember his actual name,

not Oliver. He's just nobody. He's just nobody. He, you know, he gets the crap beat out of him while he's being a crap out of other people. Yeah, it's great. What do you think of the Christopher Lloyd business? That was pretty great. Christopher Lloyd is fantastic. And And, yes. Yeah, it's a good time. I don't want, again, I'm being careful not to give anything away. You guys did a great job. Even talking about it yesterday with jury, you didn't spoil what I thought were very

spoilable plot points, which I'm so glad. Yeah. We skirt it around it pretty good yesterday, I think. You did. You really did. So if you haven't seen it yet, figure out a way to see it, rent it for $20. Yeah, it's definitely worth the money to rent. Yeah.

And it'll be, it feels like that ought to be somewhere streaming soon. Can I, can I show you my coffee mug? Yeah, what are you? Yeah, does it say nobody? No. Oh, oh, it's Maud. No, I will not have a nice day. Not Maud.

What was her name? There's Maud Wells. No, it's a golden girl. It's the golden girls. Right. But what was her name in that show? Dorothy. Dorothy, duh.

I knew that. I used to like the Dorothy. I used to like the Golden Girls. I used to think you were the Dorothy of our group. Am I? I single episode of the Golden Girls. I'm the Dorothy of this group. You are.

All right. Fair enough. I don't know why that works, but it kind of does. I'm definitely not the Betty White. Who are you? What are you? Are you the Betty White? What are you?

I'll be blanche. You're blanche? I know. I'll be, uh, what's the little one, the old lady? Oh, the youngest. The mother. Stalagetty's character. Yeah.

Does she have a name? Was she, Rose? Rose. Rose. No. Yeah. No, Rose is. I'm kind of Rose.

I'm kind of Rose. No, I'm kind of Rose. No, I'm kind of Rose is Betty White. Betty White was Rose, right? Sophia. Sophia, that's it. Sophia. I liked that show.

I definitely think I'm probably a rose. I am unapologetically a Golden Girls fan. Yeah. I don't know why, but I like it a lot. All right. Anyway. Sorry, I'm sorry, tangent. Sorry, I'm drinking coffee for my golden girl.

Listen, I started us on that tangent with nobody. Yeah, it's your fault. It's your fault. All right. This is a movie that was supposed to be in theaters. Tina even saw previews for it back in the days of going to movie theaters and said oh this will be a good one to see in the theaters and uh we we didn't it eventually came just recently came to streaming a Saturday night as a matter of fact so we watched

it all right and it's a movie all right here we go nice it's a short clip too ish well not really it's almost a minute all right here you go spectacular first images here these are coming to us live this is the fragment actually entering the lower atmosphere Five, four, three, two, one. And then back. Wait, where's the explosion? What's the chunk of rock? Rock's the don't explode.

Okay, tell that to the dinosaurs. We are still waiting for the first images of the actual splashdown that's expected in the Atlantic Ocean. What was that? The earlier footage showed a... Oh, Jay. I have no idea, but I'm into it.

What is this? This is Greenland. This is a big disaster film that was supposed to come out last year and didn't. Gerard Butler, right? Gerard Butler? Gerard Butler and Morena Bacherin, yep, starring in this as a couple who, you know, there's always a couple at the center of these things. They're trying to get to somewhere safe and that sort of thing. That's exactly the case.

There's a giant meteor that's supposed to just go right by Earth. And, oh, no, little pieces of it are going to land in the ocean, but most of the big pieces are going to burn up in the atmosphere. And no, none of that happens, as you can tell from that clip. and it wouldn't be much of a disaster film if it did just fly by Earth. Here's the thing. You know, you compare this movie to other movies like it, right? San Andreas, 2012, things like that. The one thing I think this movie does differently,

and there are many things that this movie doesn't do differently, but the one thing this movie does do differently is it focuses on these other groups of people that the main characters interact with, whether it's other families on their block that maybe don't get the same offer for shelter that Gerard Butler and Marina Bacheran get, or somebody that picks them up on the highway or things like that.

It's not, you know, you're not going to see this winning any best picture, even getting nominated for best picture. It's not a, it's not a, brilliant film, but it is exactly like every once in a while you need a disaster film. I feel like every year you've got to have at least one nice disaster

film. And this one if you see one disaster film in 2021, make it Greenland. You've also got Hope Davis is in this. She's awesome. Scott Glenn, who's always really good. Who's

he play? I love Scott Glenn. He plays Marina Bacherin's father. Oh, great. Yeah, he's great. He's stick in that he is in Daredewell. You mentioned 2012. Do you remember Tom Merritt loves 2012?

Did, yeah. So I have, has he seen this? Have you told him? Oh, I don't know. He should though, right? He is a fan of those disasters. Yeah, he'd love this. This is, you know, this is very, this is right up the alley of all those things. Day after tomorrow, 2012, San Andreas. I don't like any of them.

You don't like, oh, then, then you probably, I like the aftermath story. Yeah. I don't like the actual story. Like the, what was the movie with, um, the road, Kieran Knightley and Steve Kintrell. Contrell? Can't tell?

I don't know. Who? Kira Knightley and who? Steve Karel? Steve Karel. Oh, Eady Burkell? What? It was.

It's been a while since we've had a good nickelism. Yeah, that's good. I recommended it. really good but it was like it was a disaster movie and it's like what really happens and Steve Carell's wife like they learn that the meteor

is coming anyway and she just gets out of the car and runs and it was it was more about the relationship and what was happened than the actual oh what was it oh seeking a friend for the end of the world yes is that it? That is thank you shave max

seeking a friend for the end of the world That was probably one of my favorite end-of-the-world movies. Hold on. Who shaved Max? Shave Maddox. I'm sorry. Shave Maddox, got it. All right.

No, you're fine. You're good. Shave Max Fury Road. Not so furry road. There we go. Shaved Max, not so furry road. Why is it so funny? All right.

So, anyway. Greenland is streaming on HBO Max. Just started playing there on Saturday. So I felt really good that I probably wouldn't get scooped on this one. But it's, you know, it's your typical disaster films. So if you like disaster films, you'll like this one. If you don't like disaster films like Nicole, then then there's no reason for you to check this one out. I love something like that.

It does, it does focus more on the people. It focuses equally on the people as it does the disaster. Yeah. I'm, I'm into it. Tolerate them more when there's more of a people store. Yeah, a human connection. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I'm, I will, I have no problem saying this.

I like Gerard Butler, even in his worst crap. It's fine. Every single time you say Gerard, I think Gerard de Bittittu. Debutu. Gerard de Bittittu. I'm just going to stop talking. Gerard deba-di-d-d-dab-di-da-da-a-da-da. But every time you think Gerard, I think of the Gerard.

I get mad. I'm not even going to try. I'm the worst. De-Pardu. De-Pardu. Yeah. De-Pard-2 is pretty close. It's not that.

You say it, how do you say it? Just tell me how I say it. I don't have time to... Dipardue. Yeah. I just want to let you know that I actually go to websites to hear pronunciations. So I don't message. Yeah, apparently they really stick.

I try hard. Nicole, I don't ever want you to get better at pronouncing celebrity names. I would... Next time there's like the Emmys or the Oscars, we're all going to like put together a go fund me to send you with a microphone to the red carpet so you can, so you can say. I would be so embarrassed. Olivia Colberg. Olivia Colberg.

Come here. Come here. Olivia Colberg. Yeah. Olivia Colbert. I'm crying. I'm crying. I'm laughing.

Here's how you do his name, by the way. I have it right here. Hold on. What was this play? Gerard de Pardieu. There it goes. There you go. Gerard de Pardieu.

Jeez. Depadu. Yeah. There you go. De Pard de Pardu. That's the guy. He peed on somebody. Or, no, he peed all over the plane, wasn't it?

He got up and peed. Yeah, he did. They wouldn't let him go to the bathroom, so he got up and peed down the aisle. Oh, God. He was super drunk. He is gross. He is gross. He was happy to show his butt in that man in the iron mask.

Three musketeers. Yeah, whatever else. Yeah, man in the naked butt. All right. Hey, Brian, number two. First one, Greenland, Greenland, HBO Max. Go watch it. Okay.

Okay. Okay. All right. My next one is a mini series, six episodes. and you see when you see the title of it

you think it's going to be something else that you probably don't want to watch and I'm glad we watched it so there you go

that's all that's the only hint I'll give you all right here's your clip I still can't get over the fact that France fell apart

in only six weeks Germans know how to make war you read the star ledger today about weird and the Republicans recruiting Lindbergh to run? Yeah.

He's tapped into something. Maybe not around here, but I'm going to goyam. Did you read the roper pole? 39% say Jews are like other people. 53% say we're different and should be, quote, restricted, unquote. That much. 10% say we should be deported. And that, my friend, is a lot of kindling.

Lindberg, if he runs, could be the spark. I don't know what this is. This is what you asked if we had seen. Exactly right. Yeah, I asked you guys in chat. Is it like destroying America? It's called The Plot Against America. And when you see, when you're on HBO and you see a title card for something called

The Plot Against America in 2020, you think it's going to be a documentary. Yeah. And that's kind of why we're like, ah, yeah, that feels heavy. I don't want to watch it. Yeah, it's not in a mood for that sort of thing. I felt the same way. This is so funny you're saying this because I thought that's what this was. Yeah, yeah, because I bet a lot of people did.

It's a, it's a great show with a very, unfortunately. fortunate name. This is a 2020 mini-series based on a novel by Philip Roth that came out in 2004, but it's funny how many parallels you could draw to the election of 2020. This is an alternate history story, kind of like Man in the High Castle

and for all mankind. This one is the what if what if Charles Lindberg ran for presidency as kind of not just a pilot, aviator hero, but he's also kind of a racist or xenophobe specifically against Jews, anti-Semitic with his German background and stuff like that. And instead of this being like a macro view of this world change, you actually see this through the eyes of a Jewish family in Newark, New Jersey. and it's

1941 you know the kids are there's no TV they sit around the radio and listen to the radio and the dad works as a blue collar worker

and also helps out you heard him over there helping out at a theater projectionist booth I wonder what that was about they could hear the reels but I was sure yeah exactly

um yeah Lindberg was kind of supported Nazism as Sunstark says kind of supports supported Nazism right up until the war and so Hitler is all over

this thing you don't see him I mean you see video footage of him and stuff like that but he he was not a good person even though he was like this pilot hero that everybody

and who plays him Adam Driver plays him no Adam Driver's not even in this thing I don't know what I keep talking about Adam Driver in there. I have no idea. No.

It's not somebody you recognize. And even he's barely in it, Lindbergh himself. You see him kind of in the background. Ben Cole plays him. But people you do recognize, Winona Ryder, she is the sister in this Jewish family. John Totoro is a rabbi that gets involved with Winona Ryder

which is a really weird pairing that you just kind of have to see to believe Okay Yeah that's I'm having a hard time I'm going to watch it now Yeah to John Tutor and Winona Ryder Lovers again together Who else is in this thing

David Krumholz That guy that we know Who's in He was in the Santa Claus And then he lost a bunch of weight And he was in the deuce oh um right that you know the guy i'm talking about yeah he was the kid he was in one of those so that is that is that is david crumholes okay okay yeah he's he's great and stuff he's really good and he's uh he's

the brother of um uh of the the dad in this thing but man you go you see some amazing uh amazing stuff perspective wise through this the antisemitism that that still was an issue in the 30s and 40s and not just fictionalized here. And the last episode is some of the best stuff I've seen on television so far this year. Whoa. This came out last year. High praise. It's six episodes.

They're about an hour long each. You can get through this in a couple nights. And God, it's so good. Really, really cleverly written. Everything but the title. Everything but the title. everything but the title yeah i don't know what i would have renamed it but not um the plot against america yeah um almost anything else would have it's just an immediate even for those who

are it doesn't matter who you are you see that title you just go i've had enough i don't want to right exactly especially like you said especially in 2020 you're thinking oh no this is not something is that what i want to watch yeah i don't want to um walter winchell um plays a big part and he's um you know the news broadcaster kind of the liberal side of things and at one point even runs against Lindberg for the presidency and um uh is the same limburg the limburg baby that whole thing that's the same limburg same same limburg yeah do they do any of that with this like their kid no interesting so part of the alternate history is no baby got taken or whatever i don't know um yeah i don't know if that took the the the the the the

Lindberg kidnapping took place before or after any of this. Rhett Law says, I feel like Coverville has said best of 12 times this year. Yeah, that's why I preface this with some of the best television I've seen this year. Some of is different than the... And guess what? I wouldn't say any of best of anything about Greenland. It's just a straight up disaster film.

Yeah, it's a good time. But no, this one's the plot against America, HBO miniseries, and I think I found it excellent. Nice. It seems like my jam. I'll check it out. Okay, here's my clip. This is for a TV show that is also on HBO Max.

It's an HBO Max original, specifically Max original, and is fairly new. I hadn't heard of it, and I still don't know why there's not a lot of talk about it, but it has a bunch of really famous people in it, and I was surprised how good it is. We're not even done with it yet, and I'm already going to recommend it. Here it is. I want to make sure you know about this right away. way so the community's safe in case the pervert's still on the loose. Well, next time you just call the station. Do you have the main number?

I don't remember. But I trust you when I don't know who the station will send over. I understand, but I'm a detective sergeant, which means I investigate the burglaries and the overdoses and all the really bad crap that goes on around here. Sounds awful. Maybe you should look into a different line of work. Any guesses? Is that the new Kate Winslet thing? It is indeed. The show is called mayor of East Town.

And it's not mayor or it's a kind of a plan word. It's her name is mayor, M-A-R-E. And they call her mayor of East Town. Anyway, it's this really small Pennsylvania town, not that small, but small enough in some ways. big in other weird ways. But she's a cop there. She's a detective. And it's so good. Gosh, dang it. It's good. The acting is beyond belief. I don't, I didn't even know she was doing this. And as far as I know, she doesn't do a lot of serialized sort of television, episodic television. This may be the first one. I don't know. And she's always good. But their accents are

perfect. Gene Smart's in this. Julianne Nicholson's in this. She, uh, she was in, um, the outsider, which I loved. Oh, yeah. This has that vibe, by the way, although there's no supernatural element to it, like that Stephen King novel. This is that, but it's that kind of like,

kind of true detective meets the killing. I don't know what else to compare it to. It's just kind of a, you know, it's a more somber take on a detective sort of story. What I like about it is her character, uh, who is mayor sheehan is her name. she's her life's a mess but she's just awesome she just like barrels through anyway gets the

shit done that has to get done's got to solve this murder no matter what it takes and you know everything else be damned guy pierces in this for some reason um he's fine in it but he's not in very long but it's kind of weird what's he doing he's just sort of hanging around a bunch of people you've seen in other stuff like david denman's in this plays a ex-husband he's quite good um I don't know who the girl plays her daughter, but she's excellent. Gene Smart's always good. Yeah, yeah. Plays her mother, lives with her.

She's a designing woman, I hear. She is very designing woman. She's also, I swear she's in everything I love. She's in that second season of Fargo. She was in. She was in Legion and excellent in Legion. Yeah. And that thing Nicole loved that I loved, the Watchman TV series, the HBO.

Oh, right. Yeah. She was great in that. So, yeah. Um, so this isn't, uh, this is one that we have on our list, but we're waiting until the all, all the episodes are out, which looks like it'll be at the end of May. May 30th is one the last episode. Yeah. Goes up. But, um, we're excited about this one. I'm glad to hear it. You should start watching it like watch one a week or something like that. Or you just sit in a chair and watch all of them at the same time. We're bingers, man. I think we said, yeah, exactly. We're, you know, we binge, we, while we're waiting for this one to be able to binge this one, we binge something else. Sure. I think you're going to love it. It's just, it's got all the stuff you expect out of a really quality, well-made drama. But she's unbelievably good in this. She's so good in it.

I've always liked her. Like, she's great and everything. Even when she's being painted by one of one of your French girls or whatever in Titanic. Like, all that stuff's fine. But she's just got, there's a certain, like, kind of raw quality to this performance. She's just, I don't know. I really admire it. You ever see her in the dressmaker?

No. I recommended it a long, long time ago. No, well, that's good. That's the thing I should see. It's a great. I loved it. It was it's you can find you can find on Amazon Prime. She plays a someone that comes from nothing and becomes a dressmaker and comes back to her

small town and it was it was a cool story. A small rural town in Australia. I kind of remember you mentioned in this. It had one of the, well, it's got a lot of Australians in it, but it had a, but a, uh, the the young, the young good looking Hemsworth in there, Liam Hemsworth. She's feisty in it. One of the good Hemsworths. Hugo Weaving plays a sarah.

margin of some sort that's cool i like him too all right well anyway uh available now hbl max like brian said it's got a couple of weeks left before uh it's all caught up but it's uh really really great i'll bet we hear about right around any time we'll hear about her because she's killing it feels like it's made for that sort of thing yeah cool yeah it's very good um they they made a joke about or did a parody of this on s nl this last weekend oh they did Elon must one yeah i was one of their i was wondering what that was the yeah it's one yeah yeah it's one yeah yeah Exactly. The weird accent. Oh, the accent thing.

Yeah, with what's her Cape McKinnon doing a weird Yeah. Yeah. Now I get what that was. The water murder. Because I saw that clip I saw that clip before I'd seen much of this and it doesn't make sense to me at all, but now I get it. That's what they're playing on. Wow. That's a deep cut. Did you like the

SNL with Elon with Elon Musk? I thought he did fine. He did fine. I don't know. Yeah, exactly. I liked the Chad bit, the Chad bit, the Wario bit, and Dirt or Murder, I thought was really funny. Was he in that one? Was he in it? Yeah.

Okay. Was he in the Diderter Murder? I thought he was. I don't remember. I only saw a piece of it. It was fine. Anyway, it's great. See it, HBO Max, which is apparently very popular today.

Okay. Nicole, over to you. What do you got? So before I gave you my recommendal, I'm going to say that I started to watch Jupiter's Legacy on Netflix, which is a show with really bad beards. I don't know what is going on with that show and the beards. But I started watching it. I was like, I don't want to watch this. I rather finish Invincible.

So that's what I did. I finally finished Invincible and I absolutely loved it. maybe I'll, I feel like if I go to Jupiter's legacy now, I'm going to just be comparing it to Invincible. It's kind of like, yeah, you don't want to, you've got to put space between these alternate heroes stories. I feel like I need to put some space between it. I get you.

But, so I really loved Invincible. Yeah. Oh, so good. Keep recommending that. But I did watch a documentary. Yeah, it is. So I watched a documentary. It's a very short documentary.

I think it's maybe an hour. Long, but you can find it on 2B and you can find it on Amazon Prime. I'm going to give you the clip now. All right. It's just the trailer. I am not looking. I'm going to click it and it's going to open. Here it comes.

The original formula Dr. Pepper made with pure cane sugar is closer to the original and a better product. My grandfather was a stickler, and he stuck with sugar. He insisted upon it. We got people driving from all parts of the country to buy up pace as a Dr. Pepper. When he died, it was like Santa Claus time. He was buried with the Dr. Pepper in his hand. People would take it and send it everywhere. My dad used to drive to meet a guy to buy Dublin Dr. Pepper out of his trunk.

I guess I had some friends whose dad's made drug deals. My dad made Dublin Dr. Pepper deals. Dublin, Dr. Pepper is now a collector's item. So this looks like a Dr. Pepper trailer. Right? Yeah. All right. So this is a commercial for Dr. Pepper.

So I do not like Dr. Pepper. I think it tastes like medicine. But Mark loves Dr. Pepper. Me too. It's my jam. It's my soda of choice if I can ever again. Really? Yeah.

Every single time I get like when Mark and I order. or something and he gets a Dr. Pepper and I'll get something else. Sometimes I get his Dr. Pepper and I'm like, blah. But I found it interesting because over the years, because Mark has been vocal about his love of Dr. Pepper, we've actually been

sent Dublin Dr. Pepper. And it's called Dublin Dr. Pepper because they were the only bottling manufacturer that kept with the sugar cane, like actually using sugar versus high fructose cord syrup. So there is all whole like controversy around Dublin Dr. Pepper because it's like Mexican

Coca-Cola right where you like you get the original flavor in bottles as opposed to the high-fructose corn syrup you get in America. So what ended up happening with Dublin Dr. Pepper in 2012 Dr. Pepper corporate sued them. And Dublin Dr. Pepper had used this formula for like 120 years. In fact, the corporation actually called it on their website, Dublin, Dr. Pepper. It was a draw. It was, but there was, there's, they go through the whole thing of where their, um, distribution should have stayed, but because of the internet, because of mail orders,

they, you know, a lot of people in Dallas, a lot of the restaurants won at Dublin. I mean, it was just a huge draw. Yeah. So Dr. Pepper handled. handled the whole thing really poorly. And this kind of documentary kind of gives you an insight into the history, both, I mean, they have representatives from corporate Dr. Pepper. It's corporate Dr. Pepper and Snapple.

And it's funny because there's one slimy guy who comes on. And he's like, look, we're talking about Dr. Pepper. I don't care if it's bad or good. We're talking about it. and their sales are not going to be affected whatsoever. In the meantime, while, you're getting a kind of a view of a very small town slowly dying, and it's really sad to see. And it kind of talks about all of that.

And I found it pretty, even though I hate Dr. Pepper, I found it interesting from a small town perspective, you know, and that's kind of where a lot of them look at it, because even to this day, people are still really upset about what corporate did to this small town and there's some weird like things that happen at the end where they have this big festival and corporate tries to come in and the company that the bottling company that they basically put out of business they're trying to restart and they actually started their own soda line and at this thing they were like if you bring us one of the corporate Dr. Pepper, because they are trying to re-replicate the,

it's in a green can't. You can actually find it in the store. If you give us one of those cans, we'll give you one of our sodas for free. Oh, weird. And it, oh, it pissed corporate off. Good. Yeah, I'll bet it did.

So you get to see this whole thing happen when they were doing all this. So it's free, you can watch it on Tubey. So you can just download. to be and watch this. Or if you have Amazon Prime, you can watch it. It's a really short documentary. Yeah, it looks like it's...

I found it pretty interesting. Maybe 45 minutes or something. Yeah. Yeah. Easy episode to watch. Yeah. All right. I'm into that sort of stuff.

I'll watch that. It's interesting to see the history of Dr. Pepper. See, just you talking about makes me want one. I just want one. There's something to do that. Yeah. All right. Well, excellent.

All-around recommendals today, everybody. Lettys. Put them on your list. If you forgot what they are already, don't worry. Worry not. Nicole Spag on Twitter has you covered by posting these things right after the show. We'll put it up on as a retweet as well. So follow that and get it. Nicole, anything else you'd like to say? No. I'm sorry. Gerard Depardit. Do it. Jopadapidoo. We will see you and look forward to next Wednesday. Goodbye now.

That was amazing. All right. Hey, we're done with the show here. And a couple of quick things we got to do before we leave. One is a bonus mashup, which we're going to get to in a second. Now, some of you may think that because we have an entire bonus mashup dedicated to one Claire Gack in the chat room, that we're playing favorites. Well, you'd be right because she has a wacky accent and she gets drunk a lot. So, yeah, we do seem to favor weirdness like that.

There's an entire mashup made by Teamass mashups that's got her name all over it. So we're going to play it. Here it is. It was the deal before Christmas and all through the house. Not a monkey was stirring. I couldn't find me blouse. I don't know how that goes. By the way, Claire Gack is yelling at me in the chat room.

Coverville, Dream Channel, when you wake up instead of watch something on the iPad. Oh. Brian, we rehearsed this. No, well, no, well, swimming in the ocean, causing a commotion. For fuck's sake, Brian, we rehearsed this. What's wrong with me, gropy tidal? Why didn't you use it? What's wrong with it?

Paste it, paste it in there, put it in. Stick it up there. Don't leave till you've finished it. Hey, okay, okay, okay. You'll come in here and watch Attack of the Clones with me or else we're done. Lisa got something in my eye. Hold on. This is the one where he doesn't like sand.

It's gritty in his fingers. It gets in everywhere. I've got the high ground Anakin. Could you help me? I'm playing a game of Animal Crossing on my switch, and I'm trying to click on things. It's really hard to use the joystick. Do you have any suggestions? Yeah, you need to undock your swag.

That'll be enough of that, Missy here coming down to the station with us. Claire Gak says, Hey, kids, if you have a lady friend and you want to make her happy, use a peach for practice. Good night, everybody. What?

Who said that? Claire Gack. Claire. There's not a big open bottle of gin near you. I've tried that, but I bruised the peach by squeezing it so hard. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. If I fake an Irish accent and pretend to be Claire Gack,

Can I win either way? Oh, yeah, really, before we even make any decisions on it. Oh, that's amazing. You did it. You nailed it. It's an Irish person giving birth, it sounds like, I think. Is that you carrying your gold away? Yeah, that's what the Irish is that.

Yeah, that's what the Irish is. They carry their gold away. Claire, I think you keep setting the gin bottle on your shift key when you type. You need to make sure the gin bottle is not resting on the shift key. Yeah. Take it off your shift. Undock your gin! Cleary, you've got to stop drinking.

I don't know if our relationship's going to get work out if you keep drinking yourself under the table every night. The neighbors are complaining about the noise you're carrying on about. Hey, shut up, and I won't let you see me boobs. They're banging on the walls with their shalelys to try and get you to shut up. I don't remember doing most of that. I don't either. But apparently, we did.

Apparently so. done, Claire. Listen, if all the rest of you were as funny as Claire, we'd have mashups for you, too. Dang straight. Dice tomato, Lennonade, 3,000. I mean, come on. Yeah, we talk about you all the time. Dice Tomato is all about grumpy reviews.

Who else? Who else has got a thing they do? Jeannie hates music that wasn't made in the 40s. No, that's not true, Jeannie. I take that back. I know that's not true. Movies that are sad or violent. Actually, Jeannie and I have a very common taste in some music.

We're sort of doing the same stuff, yeah. All right, I'm going to say we've got to do this now. I like to eat! In our hands remains the final Japanese treat. This one's full of Japanese lettering. Yesterday, Brian's translation said that it was crap. It's crap, exactly. So we're going to eat it.

Let's eat this crap. Prove it out. I think it's pretty sure it's like seaweed and tempera. Tempora, yeah. I could be wrong. I think we've had this, something like it in the past. Ah, come on. It's got a very pleasing, pleasing, uh, scent to it.

Yeah, it doesn't stink. Oh, yeah, this is totally what I think it is. Yeah. That's one side. Yeah. I can't turn my head that way to the camera. That's the other side. There you go.

So, yeah. Nor are on one side, temper on the other side. They're pretty, uh, they're already kind of greasy. That's all right. Greasy? Are they greasyy? Yep. This would be,

Oh, they're good. Oh, they are good. Ooh. Oh, they're a little sweet, surprisingly. Yeah, they got a weird, like, um, almost like a citrus, like a citrus on the back end. Well, that's weird. Because they didn't taste it at first, but now it tastes like an orange or something. Yes, an orange.

That's totally what I'm, what I'm getting. Oh, those are weird. I like them, though. They're good. I disagree with the translation. I don't think they're crap. I don't think they're crap either. or that they taste like youth.

They don't taste like youth at all. It tastes more like... It tastes like a peach. It tastes like a bed of a page. All right. Well, well done. Thank you for all of those. Tara, we've eaten them all.

We've eaten them all. Wait, what's this? Oh, no, this is just good old-fashioned lays. These are terrible. Good old-fashioned lays, yeah, I think. Everybody needs a good old-fashioned lay once in a while. Yeah. I think that's it, though, right?

maybe everything else is just a kit cat i want to a quick a quick thank you out there tomorrow prime we haven't done this yet for the big batch of jerky that we got um i know i'm i'm being so good with that i'm pulling a piece out of the freezer every day just one piece same yeah and it's good and i did put it in the freezer that was a good idea oh good yeah it'll last it'll last longer it'll last longer plus there's something just good about cold jerky don't know what it is it kind of is it warms up quickly, but those first few bites of cold jerky, it's like, oh, so good. And that stuff, it's a little tougher. We knew it would be, and that's okay.

I kind of like it this way, but it's a real test for my dental work. It is. Yeah, it really helps to tear it off from the side as opposed to trying to bite it off from the top. I have a couple of... There's no way that TMS Mash helps use that for me. Right. But there's no, there's no, like I have a couple of crowns that are, you know, basically telling me not to do it. but I don't care. I'm doing it.

Okay. Cool. I think we're done there. Oh, chat room's asking about my RE8 or my Resident Evil Village stream. Yes, we have a time set. So John and I are going to be streaming that live, screaming it live, more like it. That'll be on Mondays at, I believe, 4 p.m. is what we said. Yes, we decided on 4 p.m. on Mondays for the foreseeable however long, however many weeks it takes me to get to it.

So I think the games maybe 10 hours, so it's probably only going to take us a few weeks. But anyway, we're going to do it, and it's starting this Monday. So tune in at 4 p.m. here at frogpance.tv to hear me play Resident Evil 8. Okay. Cool. I think that's it. Hey, quick shout out to everybody who supports us at patreon.com slash TMS.

That was quite the episode. So check that out. That's it for us. Brian, let's play a song and leave. I'm fine with that. Guillermo Uruvalcaba Trevino, Trevino, wrote in. And I know English is in his first language, and so I'm very impressed by his email,

although it is very bereft of punctuation. Hi, my favorite gringo's El Pelon and El Gero. second time writing, first time song requesting. I'm a Mexican beekeeper man from Mexican Baja, California, Mexico, and I'm always listening when I bekeep, never miss film, sat, current geek, skim, and of course, the best show TMS. I consider myself a medium, long time fan,

and started knowing of you guys since episode three of comic dorks. Missed that show. Well, wanted to request Blind Melon, No Rain, and dedicated to my older brother that he has always been there for me. That song is very special for me because he used to make fun of me with that song every time he took me to tap classes I was the only boy and nine girls

so it kind of fit like in the video I was a very problematic kid and my mother tried to wear me down with all kinds of activity tap being one of them and my brother had no choice he had to take me being the oldest and always put that song in the drive well and as you can see

or as imagine from my nickname I didn't end up being a great tapper however I ended up wanting to be a beekeeper and have been for 12 years and as you can imagine we're halfway down here I did not end it as a great, oh, no, my brother has been there for me also. He even left his solid work to be a crazy beekeeper with me when I asked for his help. I would share your program with my bro every time we go moving bees at night.

We drive eight hours and you guys are a podcast week like listening to. So, returning to my request, that song is stuck in my hand. It's funny that somehow my brother making fun of me with that song would be my calling in life. I love beekeeping and having my brother with me has made it easy in the lows and a highs of our company. Nice. Well, hope my writing doesn't get Scott too mad or frustrated because of my English being very rusty.

Hopefully, as soon as the border reopens for tourism, I'll be able to send you guys our honey mustard we make. It has been one of my wishes for you guys to try it on the show. That sounds so good. Well, one more thing, I can hear a classic sandwich de Pescado and bees, bees, millions of bees. Thanks for your work. Frog Pants family makes my day.

This song is for you, brother, El Gordo. Is this the one? The tender crust, bacon, cheddar. Oh, sandwich de Piscato would be a fish sandwich. Oh, fish sandwich. Hey, two are I getting a fish sandwich? There you go. Enjoy.

Very good. Yeah. He also want to hear bees. Oh, bees, bees, millions of bees. Shit. Hold on. Bees. Bees.

I got them. I got all the bees. Here you go. Bees. Millions of bees. There you go. Perfect. All right.

Very good. Loved your email, Gionimo, and not a single period in that whole thing I just read. or comma or exclamation. You did really well, by the way. You really read that well. That's good. Thanks. I figured out where the spaces or the ends were.

All right. No Rain. That song that Blind Melon did about keeping your cheeks dry and the ones on your face anyway. This cover is from the Hurley Live Sessions 2009 EP. It's a cover by Meg and Dia, a live version of No Rain. This is a sweet, sweet version. I think we played it years ago on the show, but we're playing it again. Here is No Rain by Meg and Dia.

gather away All I can do Is just pour some tea for two And I'll speak my point of view But it's not same It's not same Just what someone to say to me I'll always be there when you will

You know, you know, you know, you know I like to keep my cheeks right today, oh, oh, oh, stay with me, I'm getting made. I don't understand why I sleep all day. I start to complain when there's no rain. It's read a book to stay away Did it rips all off away But it's a great escape Escape Escape
