Human food. Money. These things are of no use to me.
For a ghost, you bleed just fine.
This is the morning streams.
Good morning, everyone.
Welcome back to TMS.
It's Tuesday, May 18th, 2021.
I'm Scott Johnson with Brian Hibbitt.
Hello.
What's this ST?
TMS. Oh, they're saying TMS.
TMS. Yeah, they...
When you play that theme, the chat room
sings along, as I do air quotes.
Sings along with the TMS.
But the pattern looked wrong because it starts with an S in their...
Yeah, they're doing a lot of STMs.
Yeah, it's throwing me off.
Like, come on now, that's not how you...
Stream the morning!
And when you do the 70s one, they do the moan and scream
or the moaning scream or the...
Yeah, or whatever their interpretation of the day is.
That's right, exactly.
That wacky, nutty chat room.
They're pretty nutty.
Ent Barb was almost going to be, we were thinking she was going to be in the chat room yesterday.
She didn't make it.
I was really hoping that Aunt Barb.
To what do we know of the honor of her possibly being there?
What was that about?
Yeah, exactly.
She's not working this week.
She's back to work on Thursday after getting a medical test from somebody who turned out to have COVID.
So she kind of got put on, even though she's vaccinated, she got put on forced quarantine.
Well, she's on a high, well, not only is, you know, she's in, she's, she's the one with MS, right, Aunt Barb?
She's the one with MS, yes, exactly.
And not only that.
And not with Vertigo, as I may have said at one point.
I mean, I knew she, I knew she had MS.
I wasn't saying, I wasn't confusing MS and Vertigo.
Right.
But I was confusing one of the, the, I was confusing other issues that she's had.
With a burly-dial work.
Symptoms, you got your symptoms crossed, I understand.
Correct.
Yes, exactly.
But, uh, but, uh, but yeah, I would see, there's two reasons to do what they did.
One is she's at high risk and also, uh, you know, she could carry it, even if she's vaccinated.
So, yep, you got to be careful out there.
Uh, good news is yesterday they were announcing that the, um, the Indian variant
that's being, that is just ripping through India and having a real, a real heyday is, uh,
the vaccines are resistant or are, uh, uh,
seem to be effective against it.
So, that's good.
All three, I know, I haven't seen all the news, but I know Moderna and Pfizer.
Yeah, the Jay and Jay, I don't know.
I feel like that's everybody's redheaded stepchild kind of thing, you know?
Well, it's almost like people are just looking for a reason to hate the Johnson and Johnson
and Jackson facts.
Yeah.
We're just looking for a reason to bitch about it.
It does feel like it.
It feels like it's, it's, whether or not it's, it's as good.
It's legit.
I mean, I mean, it's different.
It's not an MRNA-based vaccine, but it's, you know.
It's a fun little poke in the arm.
Let's call it that.
Exactly.
Oh, yes.
The two-week vaccine.
Oh, yes.
The single-doser.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
But I guess, like, all of the, if not all, or if not all, most of the medical workers in India are vaccinated.
And they are all, there's not a single case among them.
So that seems, that seems good.
That's promising.
Yeah.
for sure.
Science works,
everybody.
Well,
we'll find out when
Tina and I go to the big
bacteria frape
known as Las Vegas
and immerse our cells
fully in that hive
of scum and villainy.
You might get just a...
Wretched hive of scum and villainy.
It's been a while
since anybody's been real sick
so maybe you'll get a good old
fashion cold, you know?
Oh, God, I didn't think about that.
I've been...
Right, I've been...
I know.
That's what I was thinking just yesterday.
I'm like, I haven't had, I haven't been sick since this thing kicked in.
One time I had some bad allergies and thought maybe it was a cold, got tested anyway, nothing.
Yeah.
And whatever it was, it was gone in a couple days.
I think it was allergies.
But nothing.
I've had nothing.
And I haven't, no, no bum flu, no chest flu, no nothing flu.
And it's been great.
It's been great.
Do you diarrhea?
Is the bum flu?
Is that the deal?
Well, let me tell you a story.
This is appropriate for today's topic because...
Oh, wow.
I didn't even mean to lead into our top topic here.
I was actually hoping you would.
I wasn't...
It worked out real well.
So I made a mistake.
Two days ago, so Sunday,
we cracked open a brand new bottle of kimchi.
And I say bottle because it's glass,
but it's, you know, a jar.
I guess it's a jar.
Jar of kimchi.
And we had just got it, just brand new,
got it on Saturday from the Asian market.
had it delivered and they're everything we've never had a problem at that place it's great they
have tons of stuff and lots of fresh produce and it's a good store um so anyway i took we get
the we get the new kimchi and it's a brand we've had before so you know sure it's confidence and
whatever uh we crack that thing open and i'm like oh okay kimchi's supposed to stink but it's just
a little stinkier something's a kimchi is black it's not supposed to black
I mean, you're not far from the truth.
But it just looked a little weird, and it smelled not off in a kimchi sort of off way,
because it is fermented, it is literally a rotting thing.
It's like, how do you tell if kimchi goes bad when it's...
I think it's a vinegar.
It's like, how do you tell when sour cream goes bad?
Exactly.
I think it's like a vinegory kind of thing, because the more vinegar it is, I think is the problem.
And anyway, it just didn't smell right, but I thought, eh, whatever.
kimchi doesn't smell right that's the point of kimchi so I put it on my ramen that we made and
this is when we came and I watched a movie together and we had ramen and it was great it was on
Saturday and um ramen movie date and as I open it she goes I go do you want it on yours she goes
no I don't know if I trust your your reaction to that and I said oh it's probably fine then I
tasted some and it was like overwhelmingly vinegary and I was like oh that doesn't seem right
but maybe it's this brand so I kept justifying it because I really wanted kimchi so I just kept
going. Oh, no, it's fine. That's kimchi. Blit, blah, blah. It's all going to taste different every time
because it's rotting. Whatever. So I go down this whole road of justifying it, putting like, I don't know,
a little chunk, you know, a little pile of it over there on the corner of the bowl. And then I ate it.
And the ramen covered for its way over tanky quality. Yeah. Sure. Uh-huh. Well, Brian, I spent
Oh, now.
After TMS, most of the day paying the porcelain price for my mistake.
Oh, God.
Yeah, it is bad.
I, uh, I, uh, I haven't, was, you didn't puke.
You, you held your record.
No, I never, I didn't even get nauseous or anything.
It just, it just went, it decided it was a, uh, it was a, it was a down south problem.
And, um, and, um, and boy howdy did it make for an afternoon.
But, uh, it was not fun.
And I didn't enjoy it because I had a lot to do yesterday and happen.
You have to keep getting up and running around and, you know, that kind of deal.
I'm all good now.
But that's as close as I've come to an illness during this whole pandemic, during any COVID-19 time.
And that was self-imposed by some bad kimchi, which I'm going to take back there and make them, give me a new bottle for.
But, but yeah, like, just be, what I'm saying is go with your, literally go with your gut.
If you, if you think it's wrong, it probably is.
Because it was, it was bad.
And it was bubbling, too.
This is the other thing.
I've never had it when I took the lid off.
I've never had bubbles go blibblb, blah,
around the sides of it.
And I just thought, oh, well, this is just one that was packed in there real good.
So, you know, has bubbles, no big deal.
Yeah, that's how you know it's working.
The foam.
It was bad.
It was real bad.
So just a word of advice.
Don't eat the bad kimchi or else you are in freaking trouble.
It's worse than the brown acid.
Yeah, it's true.
I'm better now, though.
All good.
Just feeling like spry as a wet monkey now.
Probably a little lighter, too.
Yeah, a little lighter, a little freer, a little less,
a little less, what's the word?
A little less traffic on the I-5, if you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, no need to go any further there.
Anyway, so I learned my lesson.
Oh, geez.
All right, so we got a, well, the bottom line is I hope.
What I hope happens in Vegas is that,
Oh, yeah, that's right. That's where this all started.
They're so freaky clean about everything that you'll also benefit from all the cleanness of the other potential pathogens you could catch.
You know, I mean, I'd rather just, let's rip the Band-Aid off.
If I'm going to get a cold, let's get a cold.
Although, yeah, it actually wouldn't be bad for me to get a cold in the end of May beginning of June, right, for like to come back from one because I'd hate to get it before the MS-150 or the Glenwood tree.
trip or things like that so yeah you had that remember that year you had the ms 150 monster
and i got sick really bad the second day really sick the second day and i couldn't do uh to this
day by the way four years of being in the ms 150 yeah i have yet to complete day too oh i didn't know that
yeah uh one year uh there were lightning storms and rain uh second year it got called off uh another year
I was sick.
So hopefully, hopefully 2021.
Oh, no, I take that back.
This year is a single day.
There is no day two of the MS-150.
So my record will go unmarred.
Oh, that's why last year's was,
yeah, last year was only one day also, right?
Last year's was sort of canceled and we just made up for it and did our own.
Oh, that's right.
We went from my house to my,
uncle's house which is a 45 to 50 minute drive right and so we did like a six hour
seven hour um bike ride through the through all of Denver that's awesome that's really cool I forgot
you did that yeah so all right well so you can't fix your two day until they do it I'm not gonna
fix my two day until 2022 so you know whatever perfect you got a couple twos in the year you're
you'll get two days that's right as Jeff Goldblum would say there's there's no day too
there's a there's no date i gotta work on boy you sent me a tick-tok of a dude oh man you know what i'm gonna play that guy
that guy is so damn amazing it's uncanny he kind of looks like him too which is weird well he does
like he basically he dips his head and then he has the smile oh yes oh yeah we really are going to
hey we're gonna have dinosaurs on your yeah this is the guy i need to like learn for
from on how to do the decent
Jeff Goldblum impersonation.
I got to find him.
I don't remember.
Oh, here he is.
Okay.
So listen to this chat room.
You'll be blown away by this.
Yeah.
Yes, but you sound like Jeff Goldblum.
I don't even like that.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
That will happen.
I do sound like Jeff Goldblum a little bit.
Thank you for the comment.
Follow me for more atapartments.com.
there's so you know one of the things you got to pick up from that is the uh it's like a warped record
or not a warped record but a cassette tape that is is broken where it's going to go on fast and then it's kind of slows down yeah
and it goes fast a little bit yes but you sound like Jeff Goldblum yeah he's got yeah yes yes yes that will happen
I do sound like Jeff Goldblum a little bit yeah there's that whole just like yeah it's a
Oh, yeah, you go fast for a second, you slow down.
Yeah.
And then you kind of pick up and go fast again.
In chat room there, that's the dude.
He looks a little like him.
Looks a little bit like him, but boy.
A little bit.
Enough to do, you know, could go on SNL or something and be him if you needed it.
Yeah, yeah.
Anyway, there's that.
That's fun.
That's fun time.
You know, speaking of SNL, can I just say that there, we've got a gem of brilliance in Melissa.
Via Signore
that is
criminally
underused on
SNL.
They used her
for a couple
skits this last
weekend.
But this
horrendous
sorry,
it was the
most garbagey
skit.
It was
the Muppet
show and
two bouncers
were beating
up Statler
and Waldorf
because they
were heckling
the Muppet show.
That's the
sketch.
That was the
sketch.
It was Keenan
Thompson
and
Keegan,
or I'm sorry,
key and peel key oh key and peel yeah keegan key michael kegan or whatever what's his full name work out your keegals that guy
yeah i work at your kegles i have no idea oh my god dice tomato you would think that that
skit was hilarious yeah kegan michael key but she nailed a freaking uh lily tomlin personation
that uh was just absolutely amazing what's her name again the girl's name uh Melissa
a seigneur she does um if you find a youtube uh video of her look for one on weekend update where
she just goes through like all the impersonations that she can uh that she can do she is absolutely
amazing oh there she is okay oh i do recognize her face now that she's been on a couple other
things outside of SNL but um yeah yeah been a bunch of movies um crank yankers a lot of voice
I don't believe you thought that skit was hilarious, Dice Tomato.
I felt like that was just the weakest.
It was like there was nothing to it.
They were like Statler and Waldorf were doing what they usually do on the Muppet Show.
And the two-dimensional joke was that these bouncers were going to beat them up for it
or going to yell at them for it.
Okay, the simplicity was amazing, Dice, you and I, I love you, Dice Tomato, but I feel like,
I feel like you and I will never recommend things to each other.
And I'm okay with that.
Just proof that it takes all kinds, you know?
That's right, exactly.
That's how I look at it.
Okay, Brian, I got a question here from an emailer.
Got to answer this is important stuff.
Oh, God, yeah, the puppeteering was so bad.
Like the voices didn't match up with the puppets.
Anyway, yes, please continue.
Were the puppets any good?
Did they look like Stadler normally?
Oh, they looked identical to.
So they may have been actual Statler and Waldorf, Muppets.
No, no.
were definitely really you could tell that they weren't the actual stetler and waldorf puppets but they were they were nearly identical and a lot of people forget that those first like back in 1975 one whatever s nl started yeah the muppets were regularly on there oh yeah all the time kermit would come on there i remember that
kermot would come on there and they had some weird like uh feathery weird looking muppet mm-hmm oh yeah he was there all the tv ziegun found a great via seigneur impersonation of own
Wilson, if you want to click that one. Oh, I do want to hear. I do want to hear that. Hold on.
Yeah. Here we go. Okay. Here she is. This is the daily hoo-ha.
I'm reborn.
Iowlera. You know how to wake me up.
What is she doing?
Yes.
Here we go.
She doesn't do much talking at the beginning of this one, does she?
Drink ayahuasca and say hi to the birdie outside my window.
His name is Tyrone.
That's great.
She is amazing and she's criminally underused.
Well, good luck to her.
I hope they use her more, is what we're saying.
Maybe she's, you know, it's just, she's getting going.
She's, we're ranking up the deal there, however they do it.
Yes, well, she's been on for years.
Oh, well, then never mind.
Maybe she's more of a writer.
Is that her deal?
She does a lot of behind-the-scenes business, like...
I don't know, maybe, yeah.
That is the thing, right?
You've got to write sketches to be in sketches, usually,
unless your name is Kate McKinnon or...
Oh, yeah.
If your name's Kate McKinnon.
Taryn Kill him at the time was in every single sketch.
He was a great writer, and he's hilarious.
His sitcom work has been a bummer since,
He left S&L, but...
What was the dude who just got famously divorced and is already dating Dead Eye?
What's her name?
Oh, yeah, Olivia Munn.
Yeah.
Yes.
Who is that?
Constantine Trout Bunker.
John Mullaney.
John Mullaney.
Although Constantine Trout Bunker.
I can see, I can see how you confuse those two names.
Constantine, yeah, Troutbunker.
Well, I guess, what, Constantine's first name was John, right?
Right.
See, this is where it comes from about.
It's actually probably not too far from the truth.
Anyway, his, so he was on S&L behind the scenes like writing and never did really break out into the, I guess he was in a couple of skits.
But there's always people like that, right?
People that are just like.
Oh, Malaney, yeah, he's been, he's been way funnier as a guest host.
Then, I mean, his writing was always amazing, but he barely was on the show as a writer back in the day.
But boy, his stuff since guest hosting, every time he's on, they do these musical parodies, like parodies of Broadway musicals, multiple.
And they've been some of the best things that SNL, certainly the best things that SNL does when John Mullaney's on.
so when he i'm just trying to imagine this you go into rehab for i don't know what he was
hooked on whatever pills i think and then you immediately come out of rehab divorce your wife
and go straight like you you go from rehab to divorce to olivia munn in like 24 hours
it was a very quick at least for us for us on the sidelines looking at celebrity headlines
it seemed like a very quick.
It seemed really quick.
I'm sure there's more too than that.
I wonder if there was something, you know, if the rehab, you know, if basically he's like, oh, man, all right, I'm getting clean and I see that one of my triggers or my enabler is my wife, I got to get out of that relationship or I'm going to be right back in here.
I need somebody who I can look at and has no look of feeling or anything in their face, no expression or any sort of.
I never want to know what she's thinking or feeling.
I never want to have to worry about what she's thinking or feeling.
Ah, Olivia Munn.
I think she's happy today.
Why?
Her mouth has been slightly upward.
I think she's smiling.
I'm not 100% sure.
And then I started dating Olivia Munn.
That's right.
And she looks straight through me.
I mean, you could hear it could be one of his jokes.
And I never have to worry about expressions again.
and other relationships are you okay what are you feeling are you mad at me with olivia i never have to worry
about it that's right you're a pretty good john malaney i'm not gonna lie it's not bad i've never
tried that john malaney i've never i've never dipped my toe into the john malini pool oh lennon eh there's
no misogyny in that we're just having fun the misogyny we're just having fun well olivia
month famous for having eyes that
look like they're looking through anything. She could be a guy
a girl or a dog. It wouldn't matter.
We talked about Gerard Depadee
and how we peed down the aisle
of an airport, an airplane. I mean, we're...
Brian, you misogynist. You can't talk about
French old men that way.
See? See?
Yeah. Whatever.
Hey, look at this. So here's this thing. I'd ask you this question.
This is from Brendan Tilo.
Okay.
He gave us his full name, so I guess it's okay
to read it on the show.
Oh, here's his phone number.
555.
Yeah, there you have it.
That's how you can tell. It's how you can tell it's a joke.
You can always tell.
Dear Brian and Scott, if you could keep only one of these human innovations, which
would it be?
Okay, so you have to choose one of these three things and the others go away.
The others go away.
The others, as if they never existed, poof.
As if they're not in your life at all.
Number one, the wheel.
Number two, indoor plumbing.
It's gone pretty ancient on both these.
Although I guess, indoor.
Flonnie's not that ancient, but I don't know.
Weren't the Romans doing something with it?
There's some kind of Romans.
Yes, right, aqueducts and stuff, yeah.
Something like that.
And then the internet.
So those are your three.
The wheel, indoor plumbing, or the internet.
Now, my initial thought was,
we'll keep the internet because there's a, you know,
that seems cool.
Because you can find a YouTube video of how to make a wheel
and how to make indoor plumbing.
Possibly.
But my main thing is, like,
it seems like if you didn't keep indoor plumbing,
we'd be in big trouble, at least in...
Oh, really? Of all of the three of those, I feel like...
Like, indoor plumbing is a nice convenience,
but it's certainly not required for, like,
transportation or communication like the other two are.
I would say, internet, let's get rid of the internet.
Let's get rid of indoor plumbing.
Okay.
Keep the wheel.
Okay.
And those other things will get.
invented before too long.
Yeah, good point.
That's a question.
Do these things never get invented?
Like if we say, oh, keep the wheel,
then indoor plumbing and internet never existed,
but will they ever get invented?
Right.
My take from this is they would be no longer even an option.
And Dice Tomato, our opposite reviewer in the chat room today,
is making a good point.
Like, if we didn't have the wheel,
there'd be no gears and there'd therefore be
know, generators, therefore, you know, none of this kind of like machinery,
incremental innovation that leads to, honestly, the internet, probably.
Also, indoor plumbing, does the internet work without water cooling and massive server farms
and all of that, which require indoor plumbing?
Like, I don't know if you can have any of these without each other, to be honest.
So it's a bad question.
Well, you can have the wheel without indoor plumbing in the internet, but you may not be able to have.
Oh, right, right.
you could stop at the wheel right
you could say all right
wheels good
and the other two
just never come
because we had the wheel
right
before we had indoor plumbing
in the internet
yeah this is a troublesome question
but it but honest
just on the surface of it
for some reason
indoor plumbing is really sticking out
at me and I don't know why
I don't know why
yeah really okay
I don't want to go outside
because you spend so much time
you spend so much time yesterday
getting
comfy and cozy
with indoor plumbing
that
I did I did
directly benefited from indoor plumbing yesterday.
You probably used a wheel directly since then.
I did use the internet.
I did use the internet as well.
I sat there, you know, had the phone with me.
Yeah, that's right.
That's right.
You got to play a little sping or whatever it is while you're ever surf TikTok while you're
on the pooper.
Sping.
Oh my gosh.
That is like actually.
Is it that that game with me?
It exists.
Yeah.
It's just such a funny poll.
It's like,
I'm going to play a little sping.
You're going to play sping on the toilet.
You know why?
Because that is a great toilet game.
It's a pretty good toilet game.
I completed the whole first section and moved on to that one and done.
Like you can only use each pivot point once.
And I'm like, yeah, I think I'm done with this game.
You're not really into the end game there.
It's not really here.
It's, you know, I think I finally got the achievement that I wanted to get,
and I don't need any other achievements.
A quick update for Shave Maddox in the chat.
He says, to be clear, frog pants, throw-up streak is still intact, correct?
100% intact.
I have a barf since 2005, July of 2005.
It hasn't, not one form of yak has come from me since that hateful day.
Excellent.
And I feel like there will be a certificate waiting for you in the afterlife.
Oh, congratulations on your vomit streak.
Oh, we'd like to give you this no alcohol.
certificate, but there was that time in Mexico. Sorry.
Sorry about that.
All right.
Thank you, Brendan, for your email.
Oh, he did say at the end, thanks and go fly a kite, which I don't know what the
references.
That's just like, hey, it's a nice out.
Go fly a kite.
It could be, it's nice out, go, you know, fly a kite, the wind, the breeze.
Have a lovely day.
Or he could be saying, ah, go fly a kite.
Golly.
It just, what a quaint time in our history that go fly a kite was.

it's offensive to black guys
come on
he's saying no he's making it up
all right well he's making it up I'm just looking for the
I do I'm curious about the
etymology of it where did this come from but
by the way the difference between
having a go at Olivia Munn
versus having a go at
women, it would be if I said, all women stare blankly at nothing and look dead in their eyes.
I'm not saying that. I'm saying one human being named Olivia Munn, don't care what gender she is or how she
presents. She has dead eyes and stares into nothing. That's what I'm saying. And, you know,
and she is a very talented actress. She's, and she's very attractive. Just her eyes, she's able to do
something with her eyes that convey no sense of, of, uh, awareness or reaction.
Maybe that's it.
There's just no reaction in her eyes.
So you see her on the newsroom and, uh, uh, you know, Jeff, uh, not Goldblum, not Bridges, Jeff.
Jeff, uh, dumb and dumber Jeff.
Oh, Jeff, Jeff, uh, the state, uh, true grid, Jeff.
Yes.
Jeff.
Oh, no, that's Jeff Bridges.
You mean Jeff.
Jeff Daniels.
Thank you, Jeff Daniels.
For Pete's sake.
Oh.
Got off on those.
Did not think of any other Jeffs.
He says, oh, yeah, the president of Zimbabwe has just been shot.
And then they cut to Olivia Munn.
Oh, no, that's terrible.
I'll go do a news article about it.
There you go.
Yeah.
So there you go.
By the way, remember how great he was in that Western?
What was that Western called?
The Netflix one where he was the bad guy, Jeff Daniels.
Oh.
Is that the good?
The recent one, the Cohen Brothers, or not Cohen Brothers.
Coen Brothers one?
It wasn't Coen Brothers, but it was like, oh, I loved it so much.
Chatroom.
Godless.
Oh, it was so good.
Oh, Godless.
Yeah, the series.
Yeah, that was really good.
I would love more of that.
They're not going to do it.
No kidding.
I would love that.
That's such a great cast all around.
You had Dockery, Michelle Dockery in there.
She's a sharpshooter.
Um, it wasn't, uh, what's her name from Nurse Jackie?
Yes, Merritt.
Merritt Weaver is amazing in it.
And Coots, no, what's her name?
She was Proxima Midnight.
Proxima Midnight.
Carrie Coon.
Carrie Coon.
Yeah.
And you had your, wait, was Carrie Coon in that?
I'm sorry, not Carrie Coon, the other one.
The one who was on House of Cards.
Yeah.
Yes.
That lady.
Different lady.
Yes, that lady.
Not Carrie Coon.
And then there, who else was great?
Oh, Frick.
The guy that was going blind, the shake.
Sheriff.
Oh, he's in tons of stuff.
I never remember his name.
I freaking love that guy.
Image and poots was not in that movie.
There was no image in poots.
Boy, we need a combination of image and poots and Kerry Coon.
Coon & Poots.
Yeah, yeah.
The new comedy show, Coon & Poots.
Ted Danson was not in it either.
All right, Chad, I have to stop looking at you now.
All right.
Here comes the first news story.
Chick-fil-A in the news, everybody.
Get your chicken on.
Constantine trout bucket.
There you go.
was.
Chon's bunker.
Trout bunker.
Alan came from way down.
I might be out of those.
Really did.
That was great.
Chick-fil-A imposes a sauce limit.
This is due to industry-wide shortages,
so it isn't just affecting them,
but Chick-fil-A is now officially saying
you can only have so much sauce in your life.
It just feels like it's part of the sequel to falling down.
Like Michael Douglas somehow survives.
And it goes on another rampage because the guy at Chick-fil-A is only going to give me one sauce.
You know, it's really what would have set Russell Crowe off in the movie where he played man.
Oh, I still need to see that.
Yeah.
I think he should watch it.
It's short and it's he's fun to watch as that guy.
And he is fat in this thing.
Like, he really put on a bunch of weight.
He's fun to watch.
And boy, is he fat.
He really is.
Just compared to normal, like, I don't know what he's been looking like lately.
Well, did you see the other guys that he did with Gosling?
Yeah, and he was a little flubby in that.
Okay.
But in this, he is, I mean, I felt like he put it on for the role.
Oh, maybe he did.
He might have.
And I'm sure he was fine with that.
Like, okay, no problem.
I'm going to put this out there really quick, and we're not going to dwell on it.
But I'm curious if anyone has watched Shadow in the Cloud and if I should watch it or not.
Because I really like the premise idea of it, but.
that is tell you have a bad reviews what's what is a movie or tv thing it's a movie it is a
uh it's like a combination of a black mirror episode and that amazing stories with the the gunner
and the bottom of the uh the airplane that we really like the bomber oh um uh right the um
but it's got chloe grace moretz as a world war two pilot who gets on a plane
but then there's some sort of supernatural creature that's trying to kill everybody on the plane or something.
I really like her, so that's usually enough of a ticket to get me in.
Yeah, but it's got below 50% rotten tomatoes.
Free Rangers says it was a strange movie.
I didn't really like it, but it felt like it didn't know what it wanted to be.
Dang it.
This is how I feel about that new Michael B. Jordan thing because the reviews have been bad.
but I want to see it.
It's streaming on Hulu.
Hulu.
If you want to see it, yeah, the shadow in the cloud.
Poorly reviewed thing.
There's also some Steve Martin, Martin short thing coming out on Hulu that looks really good.
Oh, really?
With, um, the two of them did their comedy tour.
Well, it's like, this is like a movie and it's got Selena Gomez in it somehow.
Not somehow.
She's just in it.
Okay.
Hold on.
Steve Martin.
Um.
I just haven't seen him do anything like this in a while.
It's almost been all stage stuff, banjo stuff, you know, whatever.
Let's see.
Only murders in the building, that's it.
Only murders in the building?
Yeah.
And he helped create it.
He's the creator, one of the writers as well as starring in it.
Him and Martin Short, Selena Gomez.
I've never heard of any of this.
Yeah, some new Hulu business coming.
And it's a series.
And, oh, these three strangers who share an obsession with true crime suddenly find themselves caught up in one.
And it looks great.
I don't know.
I have to see.
I don't know.
It feels like an odd.
It's also very odd pairing these two old comedians and Selena Gomez hanging out.
Just odd.
Yeah.
When is that, Bobby, Bobby's absolutely correct.
It's the most tangency episode in a while.
Because I'm about to actually ask, when is that new, there's the new Wes Anderson.
Oh, yeah.
It's got a thousand stars in it that got pushed because of COVID.
The Paris Dispatch?
Is that the name of it?
That's right.
Something like that.
Yes.
Right.
I can't believe I remember that.
I can't remember John Malini's name.
There is Paris Dispatch.
Yeah, there it is.
2021.
Oh, sorry, the French dispatch.
Elizabeth Moss, Francis McDormon.
Yeah, when is this coming out?
Cesarie Ronan.
Pushed to, here we go.
Pushed to.
Fisher Stevens.
Oh, well, the movie will likely arrive in 2021, so I don't think we've got a new date on it yet.
Edward Norton, Tilda Swinton, Christopher Christoph Waltz.
Yeah, born?
Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, you know, the usuals.
Willem Defoe, Rupert Friend.
Here we go.
July 2021 is its current.
I want that movie.
Pretty excited about that.
Yeah, me too.
It looks like the most Wes Anderson-ass thing.
I've seen a long time.
It's like the Wes Anderson greatest hits.
Like, hey, you know, all those people we had in all of my other movies?
I'm bringing them all together for this one.
Yep.
And then a few new faces, and they look like they'll fit right in.
And it's just the colors and the way everyone's sitting.
This is the most, I mean, it's like Wes Anderson's almost like, you know what?
I may not live much longer.
So here is everything I've ever done or will do in one movie.
How did you pronounce a Searsia Roman's name?
Sercia Ronan.
Isn't that right?
Sercia.
Sercia.
Rhymes with inertia.
Did I say Saycery?
I do that sometimes.
I think you said say serre.
I think I do a joke.
It started as a joke and now I can't help it.
Sausri.
It's like when we talk about some of Nicole's name she messes up, now I mess them up because I think of the messed up name first before I do the real name.
Yeah.
Right.
Oh, Adrian Brody.
Him and his broken nose are in this.
All right.
Excellent.
All right.
So, hey, anything more on.
Chick-fil-A in their sauce.
I think we covered it.
It's a broken-nose party.
Look, Adrian Brody, Owen Wilson.
Oh, wow.
You know Willem-Defo's nose is broken like four times.
That's happened.
It has to.
Bill Murray's had a broken nose.
Look at all the broken noses.
Holy crap.
It's like the NHL
All-Star game.
Anyway, Chick-fil-A.
They haven't...
They have imposed nationwide dipping sauce limitations.
But their fast food restaurants, rationing customer handouts as Americans bounce back from the COVID-19 recession.
Restaurants managers or managers of some Chick-fil-Az at 26,000, sorry, 2,600 locations across the U.S.
or advising team members to allow customers just one dipping sauce portion per entree ordered.
So if you ask for another.
the one will they give it to you or is this really like a no i'm sorry we're only able to give you one
because i know you know when you say i'd like some ketchup right uh some places put two handful two giant
handfuls of ketchup packets in your bag yeah to me this feels like they'll give you the one
but if you did say can i get another one of those they'd do it they might yeah yeah i mean it is chick filet
they'll totally do it yeah they give you everything to give your chicken they want you to buy their
chicken that's the bottom line there yeah hey talk about can i get a couple packets of hot sauce
here's 48.
Here's a separate bag full of packets of hot sauce for you.
The one thing they don't get into, they keep talking about industry-wide supply chain disruptions.
I would assume that means across the board regardless of the fast food chain.
But, well, I'll tell you what, the Taco Bell near me is not having any shortage of sauce packets.
They're still just dumping them on me like I own the place.
I don't know what's going on.
Right, right.
I got a whole bag right over here just full of sauce packets.
It's from the last time I had Taco Bell.
She's sitting over there.
Yeah, they're good, though.
They're hot as good on eggs.
Yeah, it is good.
Or actually, if you make scrambled eggs,
you work the sauce into the eggs as you scramble them.
That's a little secret right there.
That's actually, that sounds great.
And a tablespoon of sour cream.
And what does that do?
Just kind of...
It makes the eggs creamier.
Oh, okay.
It's like it keeps them, like you,
if you tend to want to overcook your eggs,
which you should really want to thoroughly cook.
your eggs. You add a little bit of
sour cream
to it as they're cooking. Not
before, but as they're cooking.
And it keeps them,
it gives them that soft texture without
having them be rubbery if you overcook them.
Interesting. I'm going to try that
actually. It's totally, totally good.
It's really good. I like a scramble anyway.
I'm a fan. So if you're telling me
I can have a creamy scramble. You can have
a creamy scramble without it, yep.
All right.
Miravina,
Miravina backs me up on that one.
That was my,
it was only two years,
but that was my stripper name in college.
It was creamy scramble.
I won't get into why.
Creamy scramble.
You don't want to know why they called me that.
Let's just say I could make change on stage.
All right,
speaking of mixing some things in that shouldn't be,
blood dripping on a sleeping face from ceiling
caused by rotting body on the floor above.
Oh, this is terrible.
Coming soon from Bloom House.
It sounds like one of those.
A woman, or as this says,
Awoman.
I don't know why there's not a space there.
I think it was one of those articles where there was a giant A and then...
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, right.
The formatting's weird when you copy them.
Anyway, a woman has described her horror
after she says she was awoken in her apartment
by blood dripping on her from the ceiling on her face
after an upstairs neighbor had died.
Anna Cardinas of El Paso, Texas.
Cardinus?
Cardinus.
Yep.
Cardinus.
Said she woke up at about 4 a.m.
on a Wednesday.
Oh, that sounds awful.
After hearing a dripping noise, which she thought was rain,
she then saw a blood,
which was dripping from her ceiling and spattered
onto the walls of her apartment, face, body, and bed
after being propelled by
her ceiling fan.
Oh my God.
It didn't just like,
it turned into a spin art, basically.
Yeah.
In her room.
Yeah, that's worse.
Oh, my God.
It's really gross.
So as it grossed me out, I was in shock.
I thought this isn't her dream
and I just, sorry, I thought this
isn't this just a dream? Wake up,
she told herself. I called
maintenance and they said, are you sure?
And I said, blood is falling on me.
They didn't believe her.
Then they went out there to take care of it.
Somebody up there and the neighbor who was upstairs
was between, look at this range they gave this person.
The person who died was between 55 and 70.
Jeez.
Wow.
That's a massive.
How much of them had decomposed and gone through the fan?
Right, but this is like...
That's a big rage.
It's a huge rage.
I feel like the Quincy, M.E, is not doing his job.
Nope. Nope.
Definitely not.
It's funny you said M.E.
I just beat Mass Effect one last night.
Quincy, Mass Effect.
There you go.
Anyways, you've been laying on the floor for several days,
started to decompose.
The firefighters knocked down the door,
and the body was laying exactly above where her fan was.
Oh, Jesus.
No word if the woman's cat had already started.
at eating her. That is so gnarly. I love to tally. It doesn't matter. I could bring up a game from
the 80s that electronic arts published. Like, if electronic arts publishes anything, I could say,
Hey, Madden 94, she would immediately say F-EA right there in the chat. That's what I was. Talley, you're the
best. You're just, I know I can rely on you when I... Exactly. Yeah. And I beat it. She's got a,
she's got two macros set. One is scam cover at me. Yeah. And the other
is F-E-A, and it's just like, oh, okay, press F-6.
There you have it.
Oh, now it's in the butt.
Yeah, I see that now.
Yeah, it's getting...
Lennonade, I beat it because it's in that new...
I'm not playing the old game.
I'm playing the new remastered, fancied-up thing,
the legendary threesome thing.
The legendary threesome.
The trilogy.
The mystery.
And I never played the first game back in the day,
so this was my chance to do that, and it's awesome.
The story is so good.
And I can't wait
to get into two. I'm reliving my
Mass Effect days in a major way. And it's funny, because I
never played the first game. I played
the second. I loved it.
Played some of the third
and fell off for some reason, but I get
to go back to two and three.
Oh, yeah.
Cool. All right.
I did fire Valhalla
back up, Assassin's Creed.
Now that I'm taking a break from Avengers,
I'll come back to Avengers at some point, but I just feel
like it's
so much of the same
same-o-sameo, so I'm going to go back to
Assessence Creed
Paula. Nothing wrong. That game's great, and
that's the kind of game I also keep returning to, like
it's not one I can finish. It's huge.
Yeah, can't finish in one sitting.
And I just played so much Phoenix
Uprising or Phoenix. Is that right, Phoenix Uprising?
Phoenix Uprising, Phoenix
Uprising, Phoenix Rising.
Phoenix Rising.
Rising?
I don't know.
Whatever it is, whatever the game is, that
They also did that uses exactly the same control system.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's very similar.
It's very similar.
And I think that's why I was like, oh, maybe I'm not ready for more of this.
Immortals, Phoenix Rising.
There it is.
Immortals, Phoenix Rising.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If you're getting your fill of your open world third person action.
It's good to take a break from it.
And even though Avengers is kind of that, at least it was a different control scheme.
So it didn't feel like I was just playing another.
copy the same game sure you don't want to ever feel like that never never plus i want to get
i'm kind of excited about uh uh what you call it um potato race i mentioned at the begin death loop
death loop oh yeah death loop's great uh well death loop is delayed um when's that coming out
well i thought it's coming out this weekend no no it got delayed okay well i've got time then
for valhalla release date let me check that out because that's that
So this is the weird one.
Death Loop is one is a Bethesda game that was announced as a PlayStation exclusive.
Oh, September says Free Rangers.
Yeah, it was supposed to be like soon, but September.
Yeah, it was supposed to be a launch game, I thought.
Yeah.
But it's weird because this is a game that Bethesda made PS5 exclusive before Microsoft bought Bethesda.
And they're still holding to that plan.
They're still going to make, this is crazy because it's Xbox owned now that game.
But they're going to put it on PlayStation 5.
For the first six months or whatever it is, like whatever delayed exclusivity they get.
Okay.
And then they'll put it on everything, but it's kind of funny how that works.
And these guys, I mean, they made dishonored.
They made prey.
That should be an amazing game.
I'm very excited about that.
Oh, yeah, PC gets it day one as well.
That's a cool, cool concept.
Yeah, Death Loop seems neat.
But you have till September now.
Good.
I'll get a third more done of Valhalla before then.
Perfect.
Perfect. All right, we're going to get a third more done of this show by playing a song and then getting to Justin after that.
But before that, a song. So, Brian, play a song.
Sure, I sure hope nobody tuned in just for the news.
You know how this show works.
So I hope you're fine with that.
Let's go to Asbury Park, New Jersey for this one.
It's a band called Lost in Society.
They've got an EP coming out June 18th, courtesy of Wiretap records.
Big thanks to Wiretap and to Earshot Media for letting me have this one.
This is their brand new single.
It's called Say Anything.
Look, if you're a fan of, let's see, who did I think about when I was listening to these guys?
The Super Suckers and the rocking side of fastball.
When Fastball really rocks, these guys remind me of them.
New Jersey, Esbury Park, New Jersey, here is Lost in Society and Say Anything.
On and on this road at once we've seen it all before
Ask you for a cigarette you scooping off the floor
It's silence for my own
I sleep for a while
As work bounced from my head
I lay down and painted
And I won't say anything
Just like the other days, if only I could change today.
Please just say anything, say anything, say anything to me.
Please just say anything, say anything to me.
I thought I had you figured out.
I couldn't be more wrong
Last to dial and drown me out
Put me where I belong
I'm still in denial
My words put on trial
As words jumped from my head
You laid out and played this
You won't say anything
Just like the other days
If only you would change today
Please I say anything
Say anything, say anything to me
Please just say anything, say anything to me.
You won't say anything, say anything to me, to me, to me, to me, to me.
I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
Well I don't care
If you don't care
We all don't care
It's all unfair
Because I won't say anything
Just like the other days
If only I could change today
Please just say
anything
Say anything, say anything, say anything to me.
You won't say anything, say anything to me.
Please just say anything, say anything to me.
Please just say anything, say anything today.

Oh, I'm sorry.
You're a minister now.
Hey, newsflash.
Jesus wore pants.
Okay.
This is the morning stream.
Mm, all your base.
are belong to us.
All right, we're back, everybody.
That's song again.
That song again is Say Anything by the Asbury Park in Jersey band,
Lost in Society from their upcoming AP.
Stay jaded.
There you go.
Some of the chat have asked,
why was there no Resident Evil last night?
And it was because I was on the toilet all night.
That's right.
Scott was doing his own live stream
Yeah
It was
So tonight is the night now
We're gonna do it right after the boob show
So four, wait
Sorry 5 p.m. my time is to it's nice
That's the plan okay
Because I feel fine now
I'm good
Good fine, I'm good
And some are saying they need confirmation
From Kim or somebody that I've actually got
This barf streak she'll tell you
She'd know she'd know if I bar if I've puked in my time
Oh my God
Yeah why would you why would you make this time?
I don't know
I don't know why people that, I mean, I'm proud of the record, but I mean, look, I'm under no illusions.
There will come a day where all bets are off and it's, you know, I'm hurling.
That's just how it'll be.
But for now, I've got a run that's a run that's longer than Seinfeld, Jerry Seinfeld's in the fake one.
His was shorter.
And boy, what a run it is.
Yeah, been a hell of a run.
All right.
Let's pull in Justin Robert Young run and see what we can make of that.
These are their stories.
Oh, I'm terrible with names.
I'm terrible with names, too, but not this guy.
Justin Robert Young joining us from the studios of his Austin, Texas thing, house studio.
You're Austin, Texas thing.
You know, the thing. Always so honorific to come on the show.
I just know the nicest ways to say everything.
Justin joins us as you does on Tuesdays.
Normally, we get in a political mood.
but outside of the
horribleness happening in the Middle East
along with a few other boring things here in the States
we thought we'd swing a different way today
so here's the thing Justin you're in the middle
I don't know if you're done yet
but you're watching that Sons of Sam
I'm done oh you're done oh good
all done yeah so you watch
Sons of Sam I have that right yeah okay
Netflix yeah Sons of Sam
Descent into darkness
I think that's right
sent into madness.
Yep.
And the name is a bit of a hint because conceptually the documentary explores the whole son
of Sam murders in New York in the 80s, 70s, 80s, whatever was.
70s, 70s, mid-70s.
And then it bleeds into the story, bleeds into the 80s, the third of the early 90s, really.
Right.
And the implication of the title is, oh, maybe he wasn't working or maybe he wasn't the only one.
Maybe there was more to this story.
and they chronicle this journalist to, you know, all this stuff.
Now, the reason I know any of this is because I watched the first two episodes.
And I did because I'm a giant sucker for this sort of thing.
I like the true crime.
I like documentaries about it.
Big fan.
I love it.
I fell off of this one.
And I fell off because it felt like by episode two, they were just yanking me around
and presenting what felt like just conspiratorial evidence toward what they were saying,
which is that there was more of this going on.
And they, you know, we only caught one.
guy or whatever and I don't know why that put me off but I fell off are you here to tell me that
I should get back on that horse and ride it into into Cooltown or what um well I mean as as a stated
ambassador of Cooltown uh I feel like I should I should let the mayor speak for himself
but uh and vis-a-vis your horse activity sure I I think that if we were
to actually get into it.
And I feel like, because this is actual history,
we can kind of talk about this beyond the spoilers.
And also it's like the animatic for their trailer
or their credits at the beginning
kind of shows the wildest scope
of the things they get into.
So it's not much of a secret.
It's more of the journey.
But this documentary follows a journalist
who believed from the very beginnings
of the son of same shooting
in the 70s, which if you're not familiar,
there were the murders of young girls
mostly at what were referred to as quote unquote
lover's lane location.
So places where, I don't know if kids still do this
or if they have apps for it
when they hoverboard in or, you know,
psychically tell a link or something over Snapchat.
But back in the day,
when you wanted to make out with your significant other,
you found these, these, you know, back roads
or things like that where you would go and do your thing
and then go back home.
Right.
So the son of Sam murderer was shooting and killing,
if not killing, then maiming boys and girls
who were in these locations.
And this happened over the span of a year and a half.
I can't remember the exact amount of victims,
but they were into double digits.
And then the killer was right.
in not only to the police department, but also to local columnist.
And so he's very much canonically among the sort of like serial killer panics of the 70s,
including the Zodiac killer and the Manson family.
Hold the Manson family for a second because we're going to get back there.
But what the journalist, who is really the centerpiece of this documentary series and his words are voiced by
Paul Giamatti, giving it a very
narrate or cinematic heft to it.
Yeah, I did like that.
That was good.
He believes that there were multiple people
involved in this and that it wasn't
just David Berkowitz who was caught
and confessed to all of the killings
once he was caught.
The first two episodes
spend a large amount of time
going through the crimes,
and then laying out the evidence that there were accomplices to these murders.
That is something that I felt was fairly compelling.
As far as these kinds of like, let's revisit a massive cold case and have it go counter to what your stated thought on this was,
I did think it was semi-compelling.
Like there is a fair amount of evidence.
And also it's like the concept that the New York police department wanted this horrible series of crimes that put the city on edge to be done if they have a guy and he says he did all of it and he confessed to it and he's in jail.
The police want that to be the end of it.
That does seem fairly compelling that maybe they would overlook other strands that that should otherwise have been followed.
what happens past that is I suspect what made you drop off if I'm if I'm correct okay well okay
I'll say this for me it's it's the sense that it was like but what if I got and it's not not to
the level of like some alien ancient aliens episode you know where they're like what aliens
what if that was the reason we had a earthquake or whatever like I it wasn't to that level but it was
this feeling of like where was he but was he the only one the man I went oh I don't know is he just
answer the question yeah yeah like can you tell me quickly like am I going to know soon or am I going
to have to go through a bunch of excruciating episodes that aren't I like a good construction
of evidence and and following the thread and getting there but I was worried that they were
going to not do that that it was going to be just a lot of hand waving of certain things
things and then just going, but what if?
Dan, and then a dramatic reading from
Giamati. I think by
episode two, they lay out their case
for the multiple accomplices.
Yeah. Like, by episode two,
their point is, and
from the earliest
elements of it, that
the police sketches
continue to change.
Yeah. And that
there are cars, vehicles
that were spotted by victims
that
David Berkowitz had no access to.
And then you continue to go down the rabbit hole and you say,
okay, well, there were specifically two brothers
whose father's name was Sam.
And so we're literal sons of Sam that they believe were involved in it.
And so past the first two episodes,
I feel like they lay out who they believe was involved
and why they believe they were involved.
But it's the why that I think starts to pull into conspiracyville
that while I enjoyed the construction of the documentary,
I was not quite on board with the fact that their next stop was
they were all part of a satanic cult that was there
to try to bring about the apocalypse by way of random violence.
Yeah. See, that's the part.
felt like things were maybe heading to and I don't know why I got that impression and part
of me was like well normally I just power through this but also I've been super busy with
this Kickstarter and thought well you know that's one thing I guess I don't have to see but in the so
I guess you just answer my question because I generally speaking you you you you tend to come
at the end of at the end of a thing like this you tend to come at your reviews in a in a in
the most objective way that I know. Of all of my friends, you're one of the more objective
viewers, I think. So in your mind, at the end of this, did they make the case that a whole
bunch of people got away with stuff that we just ignored or not? Because if that, that is compelling
to me. And if they get to a place where evidence leads to it, then, then I kind of want to get
back in. But if you're telling me by the end, it's like, and they were, we think it was a big
satanic thing and there's no evidence to support it and it's mostly just sort of
oh kind of stuff then i don't know if i want i don't want to do it there is compelling evidence
that there was a very weird group that met at this park there are markings on the wall
there are things that are consistent with the fact that there was some kind of early to mid
70s and this is something that like is fascinating when you look at the
the sociology of like where the hippie movement kind of went.
And they obliquely refer to this in the documentary.
Yeah.
But, you know, to understand the Manson murders and the Manson family,
you have to understand that the hippie movement had kind of been around for about 10 years.
And so you go from this revolutionary concept of like tune in, turn on, drop out, you know, these experiences will set you
free. Let's all move to Haydashbury. Let's all move on the farm. And for every one person that's
like, you know, wavy gravy from the Grateful Dead who was like, hey, man, well, I'll just
raise Ruta Beggas to that splits off into like the crystal people. And the more kind of like
spiritual, all of our chakras need to be aligned, yoga kind of people. But also is this darker
megalomaniacal abusive type and all of it kind of comes from the idea that in communal living
there needs to be some degree of leadership yeah and so if you look at it from that perspective
that there there was this idea that that society had led us the wrong way uh this is breaking
out the children of the 50s that you know the crew cut uh you know hair hair cut you can set your
by American
dream nuclear family. We just built
the interstate kind of thing.
Now we want something different. The children
now are looking for
something different. Some
of them might have gone into this kind of
a cult perspective
and there is evidence enough to say that there
was that group. And I do believe
that amongst that group
you have
David Berkowitz and these other people
that meet. Where
it goes a step too far,
for me is that both that commune or group coven, whatever you might call it, which was nicknamed the children, was a subsection of a larger satanic church called the process for which also counted the Manson family as a subsidiary for all intents and purposes.
And from all of my, you know, I'm not a scholar on the Manson family, but I've, you know,
listened to a few podcast series and read some stuff.
Sure.
That didn't seem consistent to me from the Manson family side.
And also it starts to get us into wrapping this bow up a little too, a little too, too, too tightly.
You know, whenever, that's, that's always where I think people end up getting ass over tea
kettles when it comes to conspiracies is when everything starts to become more interesting.
beyond every door when in reality it's so very rarely like that well i think i think maybe i figured
out i just figured out maybe what my problem was and it's that the show isn't about
the the motivations of the killer those are the ones i like not because i'm i don't like the
motivations of killers no but you like fascinated by it you know that's the thing that you want
solved when you watch one of those shows you want to know why they did the things they did yeah that's
why it's compelling. I like all this interest in true crime these days, I think you can boil
most of it down to people having an innate curiosity about, well, what would make a person do such
a terrible thing? Why? Why? What is that? Is it their upbringing? Is it not their
upbringing? Is it cultural? Is it brain chemistry? Like, I love that exploration. And whenever
that stuff happens, I'm way into it, uh, super, super committed. This didn't seem to be
interested in that. It was more like, you know, here are all the missing pieces or whatever.
And not that they can't be compelling, but I think that's why I fell off.
I don't know.
You've kind of made me want to maybe check it again just to see where I'm going.
Here's the things that happen in episode three and four.
And I forget exactly which ones are which, but I think three probably does the most
of it, that the documentary doesn't really touch, but really stuck out to me.
Number one, this journalist winds up writing a book about his findings called The Ultimate Evil.
wherein he spells out the idea that a satanic cult
has orchestrated the son of Sam murders
that makes him a very popular guest
on all sorts of media outlets
and they mention the fact
that the satanic panic happens around this time
and they show other clips of the journalist being
kind of upset that he keeps being booked
on the shows
with people that are talking about
how the Smurfs
are a satanic ritual
being broadcast to children
while that's not really his point.
His point is,
no, this thing is real
and these people died because of it
and not, you know,
these oblique ideas
that Dungeons and Dragons
is programming your children
to worship Satan.
Right.
But his role
specifically in the satanic panic
is something that I found
very interesting.
And more to our modern context,
and we're going to
to swing it back to politics.
But his theory is that there are elite satanists that have the power of money and influence
and connections to Hollywood that do, among other things, murder those that have crossed their
pads or bully other people into understanding that they should kill themselves before being
caught or turning over information and create pedophile content, if not funneling children
to some of these satanic elites.
Yeah.
What worldview does that remind you of?
Gosh, she'll cue much.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Yeah.
And so, you know, if we're looking at these things, and this is why I get frustrated
when we believe that there is anything new under the sun, even the more macabre
and ridiculous elements, because these things have been around.
If you look at just, and you are very, this entire documentary is very sympathetic to
Mori Terry, who is essentially the protagonist of these four episodes.
So you don't believe that at any moment, he's doing anything harmful.
He's literally just following these threads.
And there is a process church.
It might not be the process church that he has created in his own mind.
They might not have ordered the son of Sam murders or the Manson,
family murders, but there is this thing.
There was this group of people that met in Yonkers.
There was this crazy place.
There were mutilated dog carcasses around where these people met.
They were known to sacrifice animals.
Like, all these things are real, but if you look at just Mori Terry's philosophy and then
kind of combine it a little bit with the John Birch Society stuff that was going around
in the 60s, then anything.
that Q is saying or that we hear in our modern political landscape that we think are
these new conspiracy theories, you realize it's been around forever.
Yeah.
Actually, weird.
I find, I think part of the reason I like this stuff or historical documentary in general,
even when it's just about anything, like, I don't know, riots in the 60s or stuff
that went down around the, you know, the forming of the country itself or whatever, it,
gives, I find catharsis in it because there are those parallels, right? So you see those things
and go, oh, well, that's not that different than what's happening right now. In fact, that's a little
worse right there than what's happening right now. And then you'll see something real bad that's
happening right now and go, all right, that's pretty bad. But I did, I do know that this other
thing happened to, which is a lot like it. So there are parallels. And I wonder what the
societal connections are. And that stuff makes me feel less insane and powerless because I
have it to compare it a modern day. So I think I agree with you is what I'm saying. I like I really
like that the juxtaposition I get from from that. A, the documentary connected things for me
in terms of understanding like, okay, so let's, when you say that the satanic panic caused
pizza gate, right? Like that that seems weird because in our head, what we think of is
dungeons and dragons and innocent people going to jail because of manipulated
confessions quote unquote from children because there was this bizarre and
totally scientifically inaccurate belief that kids are less likely to lie than
adults are and that's what we tend to think of with the satanic panic but if you are to
take this worldview this Mori Terry worldview
And look at it not from the perspective of Satan being a drug dealer who might get your kid hooked on crack, but rather an overarching structure, then you don't really have a far way to walk between that and something like Pizza Gate.
Yeah.
Like, like, and, you know, I think that there's a lot of elements to this that, uh, reinforce it, including distrust of authority, uh, the idea that we are being lied to or that the entire, uh, you know, what, what we are being told by our betters is, is not what is real. Uh, and I do think that they're, you know, the, the, the, the key is trying to separate that healthy skepticism from something that turns into something.
bizarre yeah yeah that's true did you see the one about the slasher dude in l.a um that's also kind of new
what was that called gosh dang it it was the guy that uh oh it was the la dude it had it had something
to do with that hotel as well that weird hotel um oh the cecil yeah and i can i don't remember
the name of the guy you want to know what night stalker i don't like true crime stuff so i don't
watch a lot of the reason why i watched it was because we were just looking to kill time uh with
my mom. My mom was in town. And she grew up around that time in New York. And so I was like,
hey, let's revisit this traumatizing time. Exactly. We just got pizza. Family entertainment.
I love it. I saw that photo and I was like, oh my gosh, it's former presidential running or presidential
hopeful. Two time, two time presidential vote receiver, Gloria Young. Yeah, Gloria Young. I just thought,
wow. And your brother getting the getting the old silvers, I noticed. That's pretty cool. I like that.
No, yeah. He actually has reason to because he has two kids. He should have it. I'm doing it for no GD reason.
You're doing it for the good of the ladies. The ladies need it out here. Everybody sees it and they just go, oh, hubba, hubba.
I do. Yeah, they swoon. I can tell you, my daughter just the other day goes, oh, I wish my hair was like Justin's. I said, what do you mean? She goes, that silver is so cool. I'm like, okay. That's a cool thing. Maybe next, maybe next, nerdtaculars.
All right. Imagine hair cut. Maybe. We'll coordinate all of our outfits.
fits and we'll just walk around back to back the entire week.
I love the idea.
I'm just going to spray paint a silver stripe on the side of my head.
Yeah, of course.
Yeah, yeah, everybody's all are welcome.
Yeah.
For whatever reason, my, my, my, my premature graying has been the greatest gift to me that has ever been provided.
Like, like, it is, it is one of the strangest things in my life that, that me going gray in my 20s was this unexpected boon.
He's air of, yeah.
There's a maturity that also is, I don't know, it's hard to explain what it does for you, but it does something.
Right.
Yeah, I was just a gentleman.
Some art knicker before, but now I have gray hair.
And everybody's like, wait a minute, let's think about what he's saying.
Hold on, listen to him.
He's got hair.
Exactly.
He must know what he's talking about.
Well, we always like having you on, of course, Tuesdays.
Apparently, my brain has worked so hard.
It's scared all the color out because it's just working.
at such a level everyone's like like the brain power on this guy yeah that we know that's how that works why do you think reed Richards has that big old streak it's not because he's two of them yeah i guess yeah there is a what's it called a history of people uh of of smart guys although polly walnuts kind of goes against that
i just saw him i just heard when you slick it back i just heard an interview with that guy talking about some stuff that happened on set during the sopranos and it's him today and he's getting pretty old
but man that guy's fun to listen to holy crap i forgot the actor's name but he's paulie walnuts is
freaking a legend i mean that's that's uh uh from from what i've read about that set um
it was an interesting time yeah like yeah because they like just imagine if you were the intersection
of like high art and actual murderers yeah yeah like they were both of them were like hey
big fan big fan love what you're doing like it's a it's a weird thing separating the art from the artist too
totally agree i kind of want to watch it again i'm in the mood um all right justin r young oh tell everybody
what's uh going on this week what can they be uh checking out that is yours oh speaking of my mom my mom's
on the px3 show on wednesday and we did a kind of evergreen interview that i was really
excited about and and i think maybe uh you know i'll tell you what ooh maybe maybe i can book you
Scott doing a similar interview, but we went through everyone she's ever voted for.
Oh, weird.
Oh, wow.
Where she was in her life and what she cared about, what she thought about the candidates, and why she voted for X, Y, and Z. And it was fascinating.
I found out that she wrote a letter to a president. I won't reveal which one, but she got a signed letter in return.
that she's going to send to me
and I'm going to frame it in my office
but it is
a super cool interview
in terms of just understanding the mind
of a voter
who had kind of bounced around the political map
and sort of the intersection
what I was really happy about it was the intersection
of reality because we often
especially now we're in a very pure
an age of purity
as it were
where everybody has to prove
that they are more pure than the next
when the average voter, and I think the way you win elections,
is by understanding just the general will of the populace.
And you can track from her as she goes through becoming a mother
and getting divorced, becoming a single mother,
moving from state to state, what her priorities are,
what she cares about, and who she votes for.
And I thought it was very, very interesting.
That's awesome.
I love mother discussions.
And I'm dying to know which president of it is.
So there's your teaser, everybody.
Tune in and find out.
on the PX3 podcast.
It's actually really, it's a very, very, very funny moment.
And if I say any more, it will kind of tip who it is.
But she was very sympathetic to one president.
I'm going to, can I, I won't guess.
I don't want to blow it.
I don't want to blow it.
I have a guess, but I'll keep it in my head where it belongs.
You want to text me?
Yeah, I'll text it.
I'll do it right now.
Let's do this right now.
Text me right now.
And then I'll confirm whether or not you were right.
All right.
I'm going to put it in right now.
Yeah, I got my phone right in front of me.
all right there you go so i'll
please answer with a what are you kidding me
stop it you're no no no no not that
let's get what i was looking for perfect damn it
no no in fact that's another inflection point
uh you you you guessed bush senior uh but no
uh bush senior was uh uh a a negative inflection point
i'm guessing conge you can't just be guessing scott you can't like there's only so many
I just said another one.
Kanye is my guess.
Now you're just guessing, you're just guessing for random president.
No.
And it was, and it was, it was dead wrong.
All right.
Dead wrong.
Well, now you're going to listen to the interview.
All right.
I will.
Ross Perot.
Just kidding.
All right.
He was never president.
Justin Robert Young, check him out on that show and much more.
Justin R.
Young on Twitter.
We'll see you later.
He will not retire.
He just saluted us.
I don't know how to feel.
He did.
It was very nice.
Yeah, I feel like I'm, I don't know, military.
jury will now retire all right check this out you guys we got a bonus mashup today and it's uh it's
this one a gregg is gregg in the chat please tell me gregg for walkman's here today he's got to be here
right yes he is he okay gregg oh good he is here he's saying uh oh don't worry dude this is amazing
so gregg uh the origin of your name is in here so uh enjoy this there's a lot more to it but uh
it's mostly about you uh enjoy this is from jamie enjoy
All right. Also, a quick thanks to Greg Farr-Walkman. I don't know what. Oh, it just hit me what this is and I feel like a dumbass.
I wanted to thank Greg for the Walkman. Oh, Greg, for Walkman.
I can't write. I'm a terrible writer. My handwriting's awful. It's just bad. And I wrote, thank Greg for Walkman. And I thought it was his name. He sent me one of those sports.
man, Walkman's that's ancient, the
yellow ones we used to, Sony used to make
back before CDs took over. And I wanted to make sure
to give him thanks on the air. And I can't believe
I told it, I just said that his name was Greg
for Walkman. I need to also thank,
I don't know who this person is, Kim
Forkake.
Kim Forkake. I don't know
why I'm thanking this person, Kim Forkak
but Laura for real says, I need
to thank Kim, I don't know who this person is, Kim
Forsex. Tim Forsex.
Anyway, so
the point there was, what was that? Oh,
Thank you, Greg, Greg from Boston. It's really nice of him, and I'm sorry for screwing that.
Who is this Greg from Boston? It's like, Scott, put spaces between your words, and this would all be gone.
Classic. Pretty good stuff. There you go. That's the story. That's great. I love that he's doing these, like, get you cut up, so you know why we talk about some of the things we talk about.
Yeah, it's great. It's a great reminder for me, because I kind of forget how this stuff happens.
It's like I remember basically what happened with Greg, but I forgot all those details.
So that was like it's like a historical record.
It's fantastic.
Really good.
Anyway, thank you for that.
And TMS mashups, thank you for your hard work.
It's fantastic.
Follow him on TMS mashups on Twitter and tell him how rad he is.
One final thing.
Joey, I saved this for the end of the show.
Joey Image, former pro wrestler, current hard drive hoarder, Joey Image.
Saw him in the chat, yeah.
He's in the chat room.
I just want to acknowledge the fact that his favorite video game of all time,
his obsession rivals that of my obsession with Fury Road for the game.
Reset everything back to zero, everybody, by the way.
Rivals that of Fury Road for me for his love of Days Gone,
a video game that was previously an exclusivity PS4 game that is now also on PC as of today.
Today is the launch day.
Oh, well.
And some time ago, Joey, very kindly and kind of out of nowhere, I didn't see it
coming, gifted me that game, and I can't wait to tear into it.
So, Joey, thank you for that.
And also, he just, he's been in the chat all day saying.
He has.
Yeah.
Saying, hey, happy, happy days gone launch day, everybody.
And I just wanted to acknowledge, Joey, we hear you.
We heard you.
Wait, what's the, don't we have a clip for that?
We heard you.
We're ready to listen to you.
No, it's the Ghostbusters thing, right?
We're ready to believe you.
Oh, this is what I'm thinking of.
We heard you.
That's the one I'm thinking.
Oh, that's true thinking of.
Okay.
Or maybe I'm thinking of it.
Ladies, we heard you.
Oh, ladies, we've heard you.
That's important.
And then there's...
Oh, there's some of that misogyny that people were looking for earlier.
Yeah, well, you just say the word ladies.
And if you're a man that says it.
That's right.
It's all of a sudden.
Walking on thin ice, man.
Anyway.
Quit talking.
Ladies, we hear you.
So, please.
shut up
so I'm going to be playing that
I don't know when things are busy right now
and this week we're leaving and all that
but oh it's official Thursday no show
in the morning everybody no show we're gonna
no show we are a no show for Thursday
we called in so we won't get fired
but we are a no show for Thursday
that is correct and that's good
because I got so much freaking crap to do before I leave
so it'll help me a lot you and me both
I will have to do a coverville that day though
because I have a full lineup of shows coming up.
But it's going to be a short show tribute to Eric Burden and the Animals.
Oh, very nice.
I like them.
You do.
And it's funny because a lot of the stuff that you know by them,
House of the Rising Sun,
please don't let me be misunderstood.
Actually, all of those by other people.
There are a few things that they originally did.
As a matter of fact, they did the original version of,
Mama told me not to come.
That ain't the way to have fun, son.
Which is written by Randy Newman.
Oh, really?
And first, yep, and first performed by Eric Burden and the Animals
before it became a huge hit for Three Dog Night.
Oh, wow, okay.
Again, these things I never thought were covers.
The more you know.
Yeah, the more you know.
I could have had that handy.
More you know.
I have that right here.
Look.
More than you know.
That's not.
it.
That's not it.
How did you keep Brian Dunway to record that?
I was going to say, that's not it.
Here.
No.
But I don't hear this.
There you go.

Kelly, aka spiral shape in chat, wrote in, said,
Hey, first-time requester, I was browsing around to put together a playlist and ended up running across some covers by the 8-bit big band and thought they might be a good match for TMS.
If you can't play either of these, blah, blah, blah, but we can, so that's cool.
Thanks and have a wonderful day.
Oh, Kelly, happy to play this for you.
That's really nice.
Thank you for that.
I had not heard of the 8-bit big band before.
So, we'll give you a little bit of background on what you can expect from this.
as you might guess
well no let me your phrase that
you might guess that this is going to be
chip tune music it's not
I would have guessed that but now I don't know what to expect
this is crazy this is if Frank Sinatra
decided to cover
the Catamari de Macy theme
or decided to cover the Mario Brothers theme or something like that
this stuff is fantastic
and I've been down a rabbit hole all morning
listening to as much of it as I can
This is a cover of the Jonathan Colton song from Portal 2 entitled Once You Gone.
Here it is, the 8-bit big band.
All right, that'll do it.
We'll see you guys tomorrow.
Come back then.
Bye.
again
it's always such a pleasure
remember when you tried
to kill me twice
how we laugh
and laugh
except I wasn't laughing
under the circumstances
I've been
shockingly nice
you want your freedom
Come taking, that's what I'm counting on.
I used to want you dead, but now I only want you gone.
She was a lot like you, well, maybe not quite as heavy.
Now little Caroline is in here too.
to say how'd you get in my room one day they woke me up so I could live forever
it's such a shame the same will never have been here to you you've got your short sad life left
that's what I'm counting on all that you get right to it now I only want you gone
Now listen, I ain't gonna tell you twice.
We don't know if there's gonna be a portal three or not.
Now I'm gonna have some of my friends here in the band
and show you a thing or two what we do
with test subjects, just like...
Take it away!
Goodbye, my only friend, oh, did you think I meant you, that would be funny if it weren't so sad.
Well, you have been replaced.
I don't need anyone now.
When I delete you, maybe I'll start feeling so bad.
You'll make some new disaster.
That's what I'm counting on.
You're someone else's close from now.
I only want you gone.
Now I only want you good
And now I only want you good
This I only want you go
I want you good
I want you good
