This is the morning stream. Good morning, everybody. Welcome back to TMS. It is the July the 8th. It is Thursday. And it is 2021. I'm Scott and that's Brian. Hi, Brian.

Hi. Hello. Hey, man. Sorry, we're a little late, everybody. This is in the chat. Everyone at home, you won't tell. any difference, but they could tell yesterday. We're going to post this episode seven minutes late to the feeds.

Yeah, that's how it'll have to go. Actually, yesterday, I really screwed people over because Kim or Wendy hung around for a while. And we got to talk, and as, if you know Wendy and I, oh, you probably, a lot of people don't know this, but when Wendy and I talk off the air, just brother's sister talk, it goes forever. Like, time burns away.

You might feel like it's just brother's sister talk. She's, she's, uh, she's, uh, psychoanalyzing you making notes i imagine she's got several books single spaced college ruled yeah well it's for her big

thesis you know how crazy can one person get it's going to be the next book she recommends on amazon or another another therapist recommends on amazon is wendy's book about her mystery brother subject yeah this is how she uh she breaks into the mainstream of the book writing

psychology world that's right But yeah, she just, she hung around for a while and we just talked and talked and talked. And so by the time I didn't get the show posted, like posted until about 1 p.m. And I felt bad. So sorry everybody who used to or are used to getting your show a little quicker than that. I got delayed. But, you know, she was only here for a few hours. I had no other time with my sister.

Yeah, no, you have to. It's no surprise to anybody. And they're probably, if nothing else, disappointed that you didn't take more time to spend with your. Right. And the truth is, so when she finally left here, I had to do Tom stuff, and they went to the pool and swam. So they kept having a good time. I mean, I had a good time, too, but not the same kind of a good time. No, the party don't stop. The party never stops. So they, you know, continue down the road. But they leave, I can't remember Friday or whatever it is. They drive back. They're 20 hours to Minnesota, and that'll be it. All right. A couple things real quick. I'm giving this heads up here because I don't know I just feel like I should There's some big changes coming

to the instance And if you've been listening to that podcast For as long as it's been around At any point of its existence 13 years or 4 I'm sorry Almost 15 years 2006 where are we here Yeah 2006 would be 15 years

Wow This is how you're going to announce That I'm finally a recurring co-host Of the instance Brian is joining the instance So green robe, dude, in the raid where there's the things where you have to shoot the guy or you fall off the ledge, dude, yeah. Getting some hardcore raid commentary from Brian. Wait till you hear my lore.

But there are some structural changes coming to the show that I think will make sense for a lot of people. And just a heads up, you're going to want to check out tomorrow's show. If you're like, ooh, that intrigues me. Even if you haven't played Warcraft in 10 years. even if you are an active player or even if you just listen to the show and never played the game. Whatever you're thinking is, come see what Garrett and I have in store tomorrow at 12.30 p.m. right here.

I played for the first time and probably, I wish I would have looked to see when the last time I launched World Warcraft was because I played last night for the first time. I'm going to say at least eight weeks, maybe longer. Yeah. And we did the brand new raid, 9-1 stuff, and me and the filthy casuals

took down the first two bosses. I heard you joined that little fray of Wonderbombs. It's a whole bunch of ex-A-N-T-P people. It's a whole bunch of people who hate me because of Comedy Week. Yeah. Are happy to see you lying on the floor dead,

staring up the shirt of the room. And it's weird. Yeah, I never seem to get heels. Sometimes the tank redirects to me for some reason. I don't know. I don't know what's going on. Yeah. Well, that's cool. No, I was glad to hear it.

It was a lot of fun. And I remember to switch my push to talk for the show today. Oh, look at you. Thinking ahead. Was Randy on the team as well? I assume he moved over as well. Randy was on the team. Yeah, we had Randy and Hunts, who came over from Furt.

Nice. And then all these great people, Alex, Bobby, Diddy, the Jen, who am I forgetting? Is there any other A&T? people, I think I might be. It might be it. That's good. That's good. Because Fert kind of took a break, or is taking a break. Yes, it's taking current break. Yep. So why not?

Some people a little, little just fed up or burnt out on the direction that Blizzard's taken with the most recent expansion. And I get it. I totally get it. There's parts of that thing. Like, if I never get a quest to go to the Ma again, even though I get a quest every week to go to the Ma and rescue 20 souls. It's a little rough. It's a little rough over there. I agree. Look, there's a big, this goes, and part of this will be the discussion tomorrow,

but there's this massive, there's a massive revolt happening right now. Yeah, yeah. And it's kind of a little bit ugly, but from a pull the camera out sort of point of view, which is the point of view I like to take, I find it fascinating. This is all very interesting to watch unfold, yeah. So anyway, we'll see. we'll see how that goes but come tomorrow and uh and check it out man yeah i think you might like what you see all right it's time for us to pull in uh our pal from down under

uh hold on for some reason her name's not there it is it's a g not a j scott what are you doing um anyway uh we're going to pull gidge it in here and we're going to have some fun and to do all of that she has to answer her phone so i watch the rings of ringage oh there's the rings of speakage now i play this right here where is it i can't You can't find it. Trivial things. Hey, look who it is. It's Gidget von Leroux.

Is that your real name? Or did you make that up? Hi. Did you make that up? The von Leroux part? Yeah, I did. I did make it up? Okay.

Yeah. Really? Is that still that's not your real, there is no Von Lerue in your real name at all. No. Scott, you never ask a woman if that's her real name. Yeah. Boy, did your parents and I teach you anything about common courtesy?

Boy. This is fantasy. fantasizing. This is fascinating, is the word I'm trying to say, because I never, it never occurred to me until today. So your first name isn't actually Gidgett either. No. Oh my gosh. It's really, her real name is Gertrude. Gertrude von Leroux. Okay. It's a real name. All right. So Lucy from Minnesota, right, that's the name. That's the name. That's the name. All right. Fantastic. Oh, there's Oklahoma. That's it, Oklahoma. Oklahoma. Lucy from Oklahoma. All right. Well, it doesn't matter. The weird thing is even, even when I was

on Rotten Tomatoes movie forum, which way long ago, I had a different name as well. But I only went with the different name initially when I joined Twitter because the X was a bit storky, storky. Oh, I see. You don't want to be stalky, stocky, stock. And it just stuck. That's it. You don't want to be stalky, storky. So before we go on, and I got this on Twitter, so this is one of your listeners, Jesse Call at Morrow Prime.

it is his birthday today. What? Dude, Jesse, hold on, I got to play. It's our jerky. It's our jerky guy. We love the jerky man. Our jerky boy. Here, here, this is for him.

Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, man. Go make some jerky. Yeah, he said it to me. Happy birthday to you. Well, hold on. He's also making kimchi, like, Korean barbecue jerky right now.

Oh, is he? you really. Yeah, I'm dying to get a batch of that. Oh my gosh. Sure. Well, after today's doctor visit, I may not, but you know what I mean. He better send some to me. Yeah, well, listen. It's a little expensive to send it down under. Yeah. It's not cheap.

But I like a bit of jerky. Yeah. Well, still not cheap. Anyway, hey, Gidgett, you're here to play some trivia with us and I do not for the life in me remember what you said last time it would be, so I don't think she said. I have no idea what I didn't. I didn't, because I didn't want you all going out

researching so I kept it on the download but I'm just going to pick random years of movies from when we you know I'm not going to go I'm not going to do 50s or 40s or anything like that it'll be movies that we know more of sure basically so this is a huge year okay we're going back to the 80s because last last time was the 90s one of the years in the 90s this is the year of 1988 oh okay what a good year for movies good year amazing yeah Amazing. It was spinning me out, actually, going through all the movies of 1988. And then I was trying to think of movies to that standard of 2021.

And that was a bit of a struggle. I bet. Really? Yeah. How does it compare to 84? Because 84 was a hell of a year. Same thing. Same thing.

Just phenomenal. Just a year of just amazing classic films. Okay. So, all right. Who wants to go first? Well, I don't remember who won last time. So let's just say, blah. I think Brian did.

Did he? Oh, I think I did. Yeah, so let Scott go first. Okay. I'll go first. All right, Scott. Everything hidden on my screen. Just saying right now.

I've minimized everything. So let's go. Let's do it. Well, everything. Clark was eight was eight. Well, I was 18. Oh, yeah. Clark was eight years old and, oh, wow.

That's crazy. Yeah. I was 18. This was the year I left school. Yeah. That sounds right to me. I only just made it through that. Okay.

All right. So, Scott, the first, the first movie we're doing is Rain Man. Okay, so what does Ray tell Iris that he and Charlie are doing in Vegas? Is it A, cheating, B, picking up strippers, C, counting cards, or D, attending TMS Vegas? Well, I think the only one on there that makes any sense is counting cards. That is correct. Okay. I don't remember, so wait, but Ray told who that?

Iris is there, Valerie Galino. Oh, is that right? Yeah, the Italian girl that's so cute. Okay. Yeah, she was good in the Hot Shots movies as well. Oh, she was. I forgot she was in those. All right.

Yeah, yeah, hot a little tamale. Okay, number two to Brian, coming to America. All right, what is the name of the band at the Miss Black America pageant? Is it, A, horny candy, B, sexual chocolate, C, kinky lollies, or D, U.S. too. Didn't need to bug you. Hope I'm not bugin you. It's a sexual chocolate, I believe.

Yes, sexual chakler. Randy Watson, yes. Yeah, well done. Well done. All right, one to one. That was the thing that I found really disappointing in the in the second one that they did. They should have had Randy looking exactly the same like he hadn't aged at all.

They miss that comedy moment because they still had the girl bouncing on one leg doing the and that was hilarious. That was a really nice throwback. I still haven't seen the sequel. I haven't either. I meant to. I meant to.

There's a couple of laughout moments in it. But yeah, they should have just roped in John Landis to direct it. So anyway. All right. Number three is to Scott. This is the movie Twins. Yeah. All right.

Where did Julius, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger, grow up? A, Africa. B, New Zealand. see somewhere in russia or d a south pacific island oh crap wow i don't know if i ever saw it just got real i don't think i saw twins i really don't think i ever saw it um oh really yeah were you waiting for film sac because i'm sure at some point yeah like maybe i don't know why i didn't see it then i think it just i looked on the face of it and went really this is a movie like i was annoyed by it at the time i'm sure

it's fine. I can see where you're coming from. It's not the funniest 80s movie at all. It wouldn't even have it in top 50. It's a movie with a really funny premise. Sure. That's about it. That's about it. It's like an S&L sketch. It's about a five minute skit. Yeah.

And then it just goes. All right, let's go with the somewhere in Russia, I think. I don't know. I have no idea. Okay. No, Brian. Oh, wow. That would have been my guess. Holy cow. You guys are thinking of red heat. Yeah, I think so. So we have South Pacific Island, New Zealand, and what was the other one?

And Africa. Africa. I'm going to say a South Pacific Island. You are correct. Oh, damn it. Yes, it's a steel. Complete guess. I was playing to the, I was playing to his accent.

So I kind of thought, you know, like, like I said. If you hadn't said Russia, that would have been my steel is like, I'm going to get somewhere in Russia, but. Yeah. Well, let's face it, a correct guess. Oh, I got a bad habit of doing this. Or a lucky guess is as good as a correct guess. I have to close, I have to close switch entirely. I have this bad habit.

If I get one wrong, then I go check to see who got it right in the chat. I got to quit doing that. So hold on a second. That's all right. It's gone. Go. You're good. Okay.

All right. So Scott. Brian's turn. Because he stole. Yeah, Brian. Okay. So this is the movie big. This is number four.

Who directed this film? A, Penny Marshall, B, Rob Reiner, C, Frank Oz, or D, Stanley Kubrick. So easy. I believe, and see, here's where I don't want to second guess myself, but I believe it's Penny Marshall. Yes. Okay, good. Damn it. Easy one.

She directed some great films, I think we did that. Whoops, that was a thing. Totally did. Yeah. Yeah, she was awesome. A little LeVern. Yeah, she was great. Nothing wrong with her.

You'll like this one, Scott. Okay. You'll be happy with this one. So this is number five. This is die hard. Yeah. Oh. Okay.

What did Hans say his name was when he met up with John McLean checking all the detonators? Okay. Well, there you go. One easy one for Brian, one easy one for me. I can tell you without even looking. Do you want to read your list anyway? I'll read my list. Okay.

A, Joe Sanders, B, Ben Morris. D. Bill Clay or D. Lily von Stup. Bill Clay. Bill Clay. Oh, God, you're one of them. Oh, no.

Bill Clay. Don't shoot me. Oh, no. Yeah, that's it. He was on King of the Hill last night. I was watching a King of the Hill episode and Alan Rickman out of nowhere. Yeah, it was great. He was very good.

I do not want any propane products. This must have canceled. It was the one good thing about that movie. Yeah. It was great. Okay, so Scott got that. All right. So, Brian, you get number six, Beetlejuice.

Sure. What does Lydia Dietz, Winona Ryder, say she is when she says, I myself am strange and. A, weird, B, unusual. C, mysterious, or D, a shoplifter. One of the first three, and I'm going to say because it would be boring for the other two, I'm going to say mysterious. God. Damn it.

Give me the other options again? All right. So, weird, unusual, and a shoplifter. Well, I know what's not the last one because that's literal. Really? I mean, yeah. Like in real life, she was a shoplifter. We're losing the sarcasm meter from Australia to USA at the moment.

So probably weird. No. Damn it. Unusual? That's boring. That's so boring. Weird and unusual. I myself am weird and unusual.

Okay. So that's a zipo. That goes to the tab pool. Yeah. I guess the chat room can take a point. People are screaming it in the tab. Dadpool, not that you can hear them, but they're... A Deadpool has nothing else to do but watch these movies over and over.

None of them have jobs. None of them have lives. They just watch 80s movies over and over. Yeah, they just sit there on their Plex account, rewatching the same film over and over. And that's somebody else's Plex account. Yeah. That's Brian and Scott just popping all over you folks. So chums, chums, great support there.

Great. Okay. Okay. All right. So, Scott, so that was a Brian question. Yep. Yep. Okay.

So Brian? Nope. Scott. Yep. I've only added one drink, too. Maybe I should have had more. I'm probably better with a few more. Okay.

Number seven, this is Scrooched. And can I say we lost Richard Donner. Yeah, my favorite movie. Yeah, my favorite movie since Richard Donner just died. Oh, that was a Richard Donner join. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, not his best part.

It passed away the 5th of July. Didn't see this movie come up in any of his news eulogies. I did see one. I saw one where they mentioned it. I saw one where they mentioned it, but it was in the body of the article and kind of way low down. It's fine. I know a lot of people love Scrooge. I don't think it holds up.

But anyway, and I love Richard Donner. Don't get me wrong. I love his movies, but that one, that one's a bummer. Yeah. All right, anyway. Wow. Yeah. I love Scrooge.

Okay. All right. Well, you're going to enjoy this. All right, what star of Hollywood's Golden Age plays Frank Cross or Bill Murray's boss? Is it A, Robert Mitchum, B, James Stewart, C, Gregory Peck, or D, Groucho Marx? Um, you said Gregory Peck. Who was the first one you said? You muted yourself.

You muted yourself. What was it again? I think you're muted again. Okay. Robert Mitchum. Oh, that's who it is, Robert Mitcham. Yeah. Oh, there we go.

Is that it? Robert Mitchum? Correct. Yes, correct. Are we on a delay? Are you hearing us later? Hermel's matching up with the sounds of our voices? I don't know. Well, she doesn't see us because we're not sending her video.

Right. No, I can, I'm watching you on your site, but of course, that's delayed. So it gets very distracting if I, like, I'm talking to you. So that's just her looking at it. Yeah. Yeah, I'm looking at what your boys are up to every so often in the corner there. Sure, sure. I know you get distracted by me pouring coffee a second ago, did you?

I did. I was like, what do you? I thought you got your waz out and I was having a bit of a tinky, yeah. Yeah, you never know. Yeah. I'm relieved. Yeah. Me too. Oh, I now.

Thanks. Robert Mitcham is also very good as the narrator and Tombstone. I just want to throw that out there. That guy's great. He is. Yep. All right. Yep.

All right. All right, number eight, Brian, you get a dirty, rotten scoundrels. Can you believe all these movies were 88? That's great. I don't believe they're such a gray year. What is the nickname of the con artist, both Lawrence, Michael Kane, and Freddie, Steve Martin, beer? Is it A, the wolf, B, the c, the jackal, or D, Ruprecht? Can I go to the bathroom?

Thank you. I believe it. I believe it is the jackal. That is correct. Damn it. Glenn Headley. I would have got that wrong. Glenn Headley or Janet Colgate as she went by in the movie.

Okay. Nine. I hope you like this one, Scott. Yeah. Okay. This is a fish called Wonder. Oh, I love that movie. Yay.

How can you like a fish called Wander and you don't like Scrooge? Oh my gosh. Because it's a far better movie. Because it's a billion times better and they're not even in the same category. Like that's why it's so much better. Is it because you don't like. Bill Murray being mean. No, I love Bill Murray. I think Bill Murray phoned that roll in and nobody felt like they wanted to be there. It's

just a, I don't know. Yeah, Scrooge doesn't fail because of the cast. It's got a great cast. Yeah, something else. I think I think it was one of those things. It's quite a dark comedy and I think a lot of people were used to Ghostbusters Bill Murray and then seeing him as a real bastard. Everyone was just like, ooh. That didn't bother me. And it was the first movie he made when it came back. Yeah, I didn't bother me. The reason that movie fails, in my opinion,

is it feels like nobody wants to be there. feels like one of those movies where everyone was a little bit like, okay, fine, just do the scene and get over with, like, I don't know what it is. Calcate wanted to be there. Yeah, she, yeah, well, she always, she always wants to be there. Yeah. She always wants to be there. Yeah. All right, so, Fish Called Wonder. And Bob Cap wanted to be there as well.

Yeah. Okay, so this is a, this is a bit of a toughie. What a breed of dogs does Ken, Michael Palin, accidentally kill instead of the old lady? Are they, King Charles Spaniels, B, Yorkshire Terriers, C, Maltese Terriers or D. Great Danes. Yorkshire Terriers, I think.

That is correct. Wow, well done. If you would have said Corgis, I might have gone for corgis. Yeah. Oh, really? Little yip dogs. I just couldn't remember 100% what they were. But, yeah, that was close enough.

I was hoping you were going to make Scott tell you what Kevin Klein's fake name was when he introduces himself to... Mr. Fish Oder. No? No, it's... Frederick St.Givington. Frenchman. Yeah, a friend Benjamin. And I love the actress, how she replies.

It's exactly right. Yeah. That movie's great. You know what's bad, though, is their follow-up where they ran a zoo or whatever. Yeah. Yeah, that wasn't so good. It wasn't terrible, but. Yeah.

Really bad. Yeah. Again, not because of the cast. Just the story idea. Execution was bad. So look how it's come around. I like Fish Galwanda, a thousand times better than Scrooge. And I like Scrooge a thousand times better than that dangerous creatures thing they made.

Yeah. Right. Yeah. So there you go. It's all relative. It's fine. There you go. There's always light at the end of the tunnel.

Yeah. Yeah. Just keep moving down the tunnel. So Brian. Yeah. I actually put my pages out this time so that my head's not always just buried into my chest. Okay. So Brian, 10.

It's not a bad place to be, though. Charles Clay. What does Charles Lee Ray, Brad Durif, use to transfer? his soul into Chucky the doll. A. A. A Haitian voodoo spell. B. A Salem curse. C. A Casamba spellcaster. Or D. A petrificus totalis. We just watched this for film sack. So, of course I don't remember what it was. Let's see. Haitian voodoo spell was one of those? Right? I'm going to go with that one, Haitian voodoo spell. You are correct. That is what he used.

I forgot to. I wouldn't have got it right. Yeah. I knew it wasn't one of Harry Potter's curses. No. No, that's... You know, I had to practice saying that, and I still buggered it up. Oh, you did fine. Petrificus. Funggillus. Totalus. Totalus.

Totalus. It's my dyslexia. It just sees difficult words and goes, oh, you can't say that. Okay, so Scott, all right, number 11, this is they live. Okay, what demand is not seen by Nata, Roddy Piper, when he puts on the special sunglasses? A, buy, B, submit, C, obey, or D, boogie. Oh, geez. Oh, man.

Also, you know what, that movie feels 10 years older than it than 1988. crazy that it's that same year. Yeah, I know. It feels like it was made yesterday. Yeah. That's really weird. Listen very carefully to the question. Yeah.

Yeah. All right. Let's go. Obey. You're really struggling with this one. Obey. Brian. God, dang it.

Now, Gitchett asked which of these is not one of the commands that he saw when he put on the sunglasses. And by. Submit, obey, or boogie. Oh, duh. I'm going to say, boogie was not told to a... God wasn't paying attention, was he? I was too paying attention, but I just misunderstood. What do you expect?

Scott's all out of chewing, don't. I'm all out of gull. I get that reference. I get that reference. This one's all right. That one, real fucking ugly. Gosh, dang it. All right.

So, Brian, yeah. Killing this. All right. You get, who framed Roger Rabbit? Okay. This is a bit tricky. Okay. What decade is this film set in?

Is it A, the 50s, B, the 40s, C, the 30s, or D, the 80s? It's between two of them for me. I'm going to say the 40s. You are right. 1947. I would have also said 40s. I just got Bs all the way down my list. So it's just B, B, B, B, B.

Yeah, you had all these Bs. I wonder if the next one will be B. Bees, bees, millions of bees. All right, you get a fantasy film, Scott. Okay. All right, this is the only one that Colonel didn't get. Oh, no, he got this one, actually. It was the food frame Broder Rabbit that he didn't get.

Okay. All right, number 13, Willow. In this film, what species are Dikinis? Are they A, little people, B, brownies, C, humans, or D, trolls? Oh, my gosh, another movie I don't love. I am looking for to that series though weirdly I don't know why

Brownies Because That's Brian Shit Darkinis Darkinis? Yep, Dikades Val Kilkenaries

Because I was thinking those were like The like Rick Dukaman and Like they were the little tiny Little guys but I'm not, yeah. That's what I thought. What are the choices again?

Humans. Little people, brownies, humans or trolls? Let's say little people. J.K.L.M.S. got to write because J.K.L.M.S. really likes Willow. It's humans. Oh, man. The baby is a daikini.

Oh, oh. Little people are humans. I just want to say that. for the record before we get it's a good point yeah in fairness there's no such thing as brownies or trolls so it's complete fantasy um but i agree little people are humans yeah dumdy dumby dumb that's fair point no it's a fantasy job yeah moving on okay uh so no one got that one that's a that one okay so was that movie tad pool got it all right so this is that movie tad pool got it all right so this is Now, this one's, uh, mine, because that was, Scott, Scott, got, well, all right, Brian, young guns. Oh, God, okay.

All right, what, what, no, not God, young guns. Yeah, Western. What, what actor plays Josiah Gordon, Doc, Gerlock? Is it A, Lou Diamond Phillips, B, Kiefer Sutherland, C, Charlie Sheen, or D, Jack Palance? Okay, I remember very little about this film. But I believe that Doc was Kiefer Thutherland. Damn it. Yes.

You're right. You're right. Lou Diamond Phillips played Jose. Charlie Sheen played Dick and Jack Palance played Lawrence Murphy. Jack Flans was such a baddie. Okay. I did do a tiebreaker, but really not really needed, but let's just do it anyway. Sure, why not?

I didn't see the question go to waste. Sure. Exactly. So whoever's the first in, and you get two points. So, Scott, if he gets, I still won't catch you up. Anyway, it's worth a try. All right. Tie breaker, so it's the first in with the answer.

It's not multiple choice. All right. Number 15. Who plays Bounty Hunter, Jack Walsh in Midnight Run? Brian. Brian. He is the champion of 88. I was just thinking about that movie.

Man, that blew, that made my brain fart. I farted it all over the moment. microphone. I'm going to mention some movies I didn't get into the queen. Yeah. Oh, that's right. That movie's awesome. It's so good.

So here are just some other movies that I didn't get into the quiz that were 88. Cocktail, Biloxi Blues, big business, Bull Durham, the Great Outdoors, Red Heat, Gorillas in the Mist, the naked gun, dangerous liaisons and working girl. Okay. Oh, wow. To name a few. Quick note. Outdoor, what was the John Candy? Great outdoors?

Yeah, great outdoors is garbage. Garbage. Yeah. I liked you didn't ask any questions about that one or big business. Yeah, big business. That is such a garbage movie. Oh my gosh. It's so bad.

And I love everyone in it and it's garbage. It's terrible. But not as bad as a fine mess. No, no. What's the one? What's the other one we saw with the penis nose and the squirini and all that? What was that? Nothing but trouble.

Nothing but trouble is the single worst thing Dan Aykroyd ever put his name on. That's a weird movie. Have you seen Dr. Oh, we need to watch Dr. Detroit for... Yes. Yeah, because that's where he met Donna Dixon, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, and then they were in Spies Like Us together.

Spies Like Us. I like Spies Like Us. That was cool. Yeah, yeah. That's a funny movie. But Dr. Detroit is horrible, even though, again, music by Mark Mothersbond, Devo. Oh, nice. Yep.

He just turned... Yeah, it's a really groovy theme song, but it's a very quirky, strange movie. but a bit you got those movies that sit in that category like shakes the clown and uh hf and things like that that if they either really really appeal to your sense of humor or they don't but i love uhf and i love shakes the clown as well so i really like i do love uhf i let yeah subversive comedies of the 80s i think is a really is a really cool subgenre like uh tapeheads did you ever see that one with yeah i love tapets john kusack and tim robbins jim robbins yeah i ever saw that yeah that's a good that's a good news of the eighties of the

Watch Shakes the Clown. You guys, because if you want to see Mrs. Brady from the Brady Bunch being a drunk slut at the beginning of a movie, that's the movie to watch. And Robin Williams is in it as a mime. Yeah. Oh, cool. I'm looking it up here. Bobcat, Goldthwaite, Julie Brown,

Bruce Baum, and, like you mentioned, oh, Robin Williams is in that. How? It's the Julie Brown. He plays a red on airlight. Oh, no. Who said that? Does someone just say Yeah, Digit said that Robin Williams is in and he plays a mime. God dang it. There's a mime. Dang it, there's my red on air light. Yeah.

And the clowns are in battle with the mines. Hold on. Is this the Julie Brown downtown Julie Brown? Is that her? No, it's the Earth Girls are easy, Julie Brown, right? But that's the same woman. No, downtown Julie Brown was Wabba, Wabba, Wabba. Oh, yeah, yeah.

Sorry, we didn't get that in Australia. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, Kathy Griffin. This is the red-headed one. Yeah. Okay. Well, Kathy Griffin's in it, so I'm definitely going to avoid it.

All right, anyway. she's all right whatever no she annoys me she's not all right she doesn't know me no i understand yeah i can't stand up but she used to be a funny stand-up comedian does bobcat do his whole bobcat thing or does he is no okay oh no no no no trust if anyone's in in in the tadpool who's seen shakes the clown put and you like to give a thumbs up and i'll mention your next quiz tv zigan uh mentioned said yeah shakes is a great movie so okay there you go tom kenny is the head of the mimes is Is that true, chat room? Yeah.

What? That's crazy. Voice of Spongebob. Yeah, he went on to do SpongeBob. The guy has been a massive success. I think he's one of the, I don't watch Spongebob, but I think he's one of the voices or creators or something of SpongeBob SquarePants. And he's just, and he plays such a good baddie in that movie. It's just worth checking out just for him playing the baddie.

And it's just goofy fun. So there you go. So, well, well, done. So Brian wins. So I'll keep that as a record, even though I say that and I never do. Yeah, right. You put up a good fight, Scott. Thanks, man.

Next time you'll listen to the question. She tells you the bogey. Failed horrendously this time. I do not like my performance at all, but don't worry. There's always next year. Well done, Gidgett. I'll do a more recent year next time. For our poor memories.

Is that what you're saying? Oh, hey, I love bouncing around the 80s. Whatever you want to do will love. Yeah, you do what you do. You do it in the only way you do it. And then tell people real quick where they can get more Gidgett in their life, Where can they do it? Everyone wants more gadgeting.

No, they don't. Okay, I co-host the Retro Cinema Podcast. You just have to type in the Retro Cinema Podcasts into Google, and we're on every single platform.

And the soundtrack that was so much better than the movie that it came from heavy metal. Oh my gosh. That's true. I mean, you got your Sammy Hagar, your journey, your cheap trick, your Don Felder, your dude from Steely Dan. You've got, I mean, all these great artists who contributed to. uh to the heavy metal soundtrack which at some point we're going to watch for film sack um we need because it became the sequel or not the sequel but the reboot became love death and robots oh oh well yeah really really i found that out like in in in doing some research for heavy metal i found

out that this thing was planned tim burton or not tim burton who was involved there were a bunch of different directors involved robert rodriguez and um all these other directors were involved and it just kept getting pushed and pushed and pushed and finally said all right let's we'll just release what we've done is um love death and robots i didn't know that yes that's amazing the heavy metal 2000 but uh so they were going to try to revive that instead of doing that they went to this tv but deal that's great that's great they made the right choice by the way they absolutely did i'm looking up i want to find these directors because it was so is like really i had no idea there we go uh uh david fincher

was spearheading the project in 2008. Guillermo del Toro, Zach Snyder, Gore Vrbinski, James Cameron, Jack Black, were all in, like,

all wanted to contribute directing a segment. That's great. And then it kind of stalled indefinitely. 2011, Robert Rodriguez announced that he bought the film rights and planned to do the new animated film. And then on March 5th,

March 15th, 2019, the reboot was released on Netflix as a reimagining called Love, Death, and Robots. Wow. That's great. Well done, guys. Keep it coming. Keep more of those coming. That'd be good.

Yeah. Yeah. Hey, in the news. Yeah, here's our first story. Oh, by the way, coverville. Twitch.tv. slash coverville. If you want to hear covers of songs from those three amazing albums.

There you go. That's today. 1 p.m., check it out. 1 p.m. A woman arrested while ordering food in a McDonald's drive-thru after, allegedly dragging an officer. So drug the officer, got hungry, when got food.

Could you pick me up some fries? Yeah, while you're in there. Let me get my shirt out of the car door. Yeah, they got that apple pie pocket thing. I really like those. I'll take one of those. Massachusetts officers arrested a woman who stopped in a McDonald's drive-thru after authorities said she stole the truck,

hit a police car, and dragged the officer. The incident occurred on Tuesday. This has been yesterday, two days ago, in the morning, in Worcester, Massachusetts, about 40 miles west of Boston. Worcester, what'd I say, Worcester? Yeah, Worcester. It's weird, because they pronounce those first five letters as worse, and then the last four letters as stir, so Worcester. Worcester, that makes sense. Or Worcester, if you're from there.

Yeah, if you're... Worcester. Yeah, mad, wicked piss. Wicked. Are you mad, wicked from Worcester? About 40 miles west of Boston. is where we're talking about after a man called 911. To say that his truck was stolen when members of the Worcester Police Department arrived,

the man said he saw the woman climb into his truck and drive away. That's where it gets interesting. The man told officers where his truck was located since the vehicle had GPS. As they drove toward the truck, officers said they were flagged down by a driver who said their car was hit by the same truck. Minutes later, an officer spotted the woman identified as 38-year-old Johanna Gardell. In the truck. When the officer approached the truck, Gardell drove off.

off. According to the department, the officer followed her, but later stopped due to traffic concerns. Police then said, Cardell drove into a van when some nearby officers tried to stop her. She allegedly hit them. She backed up the vehicle at a high rate of speed, struck the cruiser behind her, and knocked down and dragged one of the detail officers. The weird this gets weird is right after all this is done and she's on the next leg of her escape. She stopped at a McDonald's drive-thru to get food. Oh, no. What the age? Did she want a fish sandwich? It was too early to get a fish sandwich, it turns out.

Anyway, after she did that, let's see. She was spotted at McDonald's drive-thru, trying to get food. Officers said they approached her. She hit another police car. She attempted to drive away again. Ended up in the mulch in the property there. And then she fought arrest, you know, try to fight these guys off. Anyway, she's in custody now.

Nobody knows what the heck's going on, but she had a hell of a hell of a an appetite is all, is all I'm saying. Mm-hmm. There you go. Once she's supersized. Truly. I've been at McDonald's in forever. I did go finally get a Freddy's yesterday, though.

Oh, yeah? That I've been dreaming about, um, all week. Well, I'm now, uh, I'm, whatever. Today, so I'll just, uh, the long and the short of it is, uh, part of the testosterone treatment means that your blood pressure. goes up just part of the deal and it's gone up a little higher than they'd like and so now they're going to pull back on the tea a little bit because I'm in pretty good healthy range right now and they're going to make me never eat anything bad for me again that was like written

on the prescription form don't ever eat anything bad for you again never eat bad things for you again she was very adamant about this today so I think Freddy's or any other Like product will be a ways off for me. We'll see. I can get it back down a normal range, maybe. Yeah, there you go. I'll quit talking about, you know, I'll talk about, oh, I had the greatest piece of celery the other day, Scott. It was delicious.

You wouldn't believe this naked salad with no dressing on it with nothing but leaves and twigs. Where you going for lunch day, Brian? Oh, I'm going to go to the produce section of the Kroger and eat at Rutapega. Yeah, there you have it. But, Zoe, bacon's not off the list. It just has to be nice lean bacon and preferably turkey, yeah. Yeah, turkey bacon with breakfast this morning. I like turkey bacon.

I'm a fan. And by the way, Luke Seidwalker from Worcester, Worcester, and I've got to pronounce it correctly. You don't even pronounce the R. It's Worcester. It's just Worcester? In Worcester in Massachusetts. But in the UK, I believe it is pronounced Worcester. And I think that's why I made the mistake of assuming that, I, I,

I mean, it really is, is it just because Massachusetts, you don't pronounce the R anyway in anything? No, that's true. It feels like, like R&M would not be welcome in, uh, that's right. All their songs have it. Yeah, I'd go to Worcester. Yeah. Wicked Fah, if you want to go to Worcester. That's me in that corner.

You could get a lot of R's out of those guys there. Oh, yeah, no, that's Athens, Georgia, very far from Boston, Massachusetts. Yeah, a bit of a jump. Um, okay. Let's see. Is there time for this one? Yeah. Why not? Oh, please. Yes. The Lego model. You know the Lego models of actual, like, historic buildings? Yeah. Like historic places and stuff? Yeah. Sure, you can go get those. Well, a version of the U.S. Capitol Lego model was seized from the home of one of the alleged January 6th insurrectionists. Uh, they must think he was playing something with this Lego. But anyway, FBI agents have seized a detailed Lego model of the U.S. Capitol from a man. used of storming the building to disrupt the Electoral

College certification on January 6th. We know all about that event. The Lego set, 1,032 pieces and advertised as suitable for boys and girls over the age of 12 years old was seized from the Glenshaw, Pennsylvania home of 27-year-old

Robert Moors on July 11th, or June. I hear this set comes with a mini-fig of the Cumanan shaman. Oh, man. Another mini-fig of the guy who wore his work badge and posed for a selfie. Wow. Wow.

Does it come with all the contradictory flags? Like, uh, it does, right, yeah. Ones that say, we back the blue, but then you can beat a cop with a blue with the same flag that says, we back the blue. Do they have that? Oh, yeah, totally does. And then a, uh, and then a, uh, a podium that you can, like one of the many figs can carry around, or I guess it's more lectern. Oh, that's perfect. I'd walk out smiling and waving at the camera. Hey! They got that guy with a dead face holding the Confederate flag and just walk. walking through there.

I'm sure. And some of the offices even smell like urine. It's great. Fantastic. There's a little... Scratch and sniff. There's a little Pelosi laptop

to steal, all that kind of stuff. Yep. Yep. Well, they've gone after this dude because according to a memo, they requested this thing after he was detained until his trial. FBI used dozens of photos and stills

from videos captured of the event that placed him at the Capitol where he helped, they say that he was key in orchestrating one of the most intense and prolonged clashes of the insurrection. Morse is accused of using his entire body to push against the rioters in front of him as the group tried to use the shields to push past the officers guarding that door. On separate surveillance video, they found other stuff where he's doing other things.

They don't really get into why they took this model. Yeah, because here's the thing. I mean, I certainly am not going to defend any of the people who did the whole January 6th thing. But this feels like you're not going to get a Lego set. that accurately gives you your Ocean's 11 map to the capital that you're going to use to say, all right, we're going to come into here. And then we're going to put a little circus acrobat in this little container and put him over here where it could cause a distraction and da-da-da-da-da. Yeah.

Well, this is, I mean, so the attorneys also did not specify whether or not he used the Lego set for the things you just said. Sure. But it is advertised as, and this is why they think maybe they grabbed it. Quote, a collectible booklet containing information about the design and architecture and history of the building. And they think maybe he used that booklet that comes with it as a way to prepare for the riot. Well, I hope I never do anything to knock over a casino because I bought the, or somebody bought for me, the Las Vegas architectural Lego set that contains information about the various buildings in Las Vegas. Yeah, that's perfect.

It's perfect. Yeah, Brian. Keep your eye on, Brian. Get them on that watch list. That's right. Keep your eye. They have a little mini fig of me jumping off the stratosphere. I don't, but I should. I would buy that. Are you kidding me? I totally buy that. All right. We're going to take a break when we come back. Tom Merritt will join us. Yeah, I know it's Thursday. It's weird. But it's because we switch with Wendy. So Tom Merritt will be here. Nicole, after that.

Yeah. Come back after this song, Brian has brought. What is it? Yeah, don't worry. It'll all be okay. Let's go to L.A. for this one, the bots released a new single. You think, I mean, it's really, there are humans involved. It's not just a a bunch of robots that released a single, but this is a human involvement was done in this.

Ah, fantastic. Let's do this now. With the computer, as with any tool, the concept and direction must come from the man. I agree. And the man who can bring us that information is Tom Merritt. He joins us as he does most Wednesdays, but today is a little different. Like I mentioned, we have Tom here today to talk about the Thursday goings on in the world of tech. Tom Merritt, welcome back to the show.

So do I have to give you, like, advice or something? Yes, yes. A listener called in and said that there has a lot. having some tech problems. They just saw a giant cat on the streets of Tokyo, a giant three-dimensional cat, and they need your help. Tom, how can we help this? Yeah, how can you help?

Tuna. You've got great access to tuna in Japan. Just go buy as much as you can at the new market. Don't go to the old market. That's just touristy now. And throw as much tuna at that 3D cat as you can. Make sure it's 3D tuna, though. Oh, 3D tuna.

Never ask for less than 3D tuna. don't want that flat tuna Cat won't go over No, two dimensional tunas Plus it tastes horrible Yeah it's bad stuff Also it's maybe fun to say

But it's not gonna help you It is fun to say 80s sitcom character Yeah Friend of Kurt Cameron's on growing pains Hey I'm gonna go hang out with 2D tuna See you guys Yeah I like it

Well of course Thursdays aren't that different than Wednesdays In terms of tech coverage You have a show and it happens anyway And there's always cool text stuff stuff to talk about. So what's going on today? What's happening? Yeah, we got a few things in the hopper coming up. One of them, Steve Wozniak, many of you know as the co-founder of Apple, technically still an employee, apparently. It gets paid 50 bucks a week to technically still be an employee

of Apple. I feel like he's underpaid, but he doesn't really do anything, so maybe not. he has come out at the request of Lewis Rossman, who is one of the people leading the campaign for the right to repair, giving you legal rights to get the information you need from companies to be able to repair your own devices, stop companies from trying to block you from repairing your own devices. Lewis Rossman sent a cameo request to Wozniak. That's where you pay somebody to make a video for you. And there's a little bit of a gauntlet. Rossman said, like, hey man you were the guy at apple who made the apple two happen open you could you could you could open up the apple two and repair it uh jobs was the one who wanted everything closed and that's why the mac was all tightened up and sealed up and glued up uh he's like shouldn't you uh you know tell me about the right to repair so wasniak did i did a video uh it's about 10 minutes long and rossmann made

it uh public uh talking about how yeah uh you i would never have been able to do that the Apple 2. If I hadn't had access to the tools that I had, I didn't have the money to pay to become a certified, blah, blah, blah, blah. But yeah, it's probably one of the biggest attention getting events of right to repair. And the Biden administration and Europe as well are both considering taking action on right to repair regarding electronics. There's already right to repair regarding cars. We had Patrick Jordan on last month to talk about, you know, the overview of right to repair. There's a lot of good right to repair legislation. Not perfect, but there's a lot of good right to repair legislation on cars, giving you rights to have access to parts and

schematics. And there's a movement to try to do that for electronics, to say, you know, companies should make, at the very least, make schematics available, not prevent you from having access to parts, et cetera, et cetera, if you want to repair your own devices. Doesn't there, there was also something recent with, or something had changed in the John Deere thing? I got to find that. Because John Deere was famous for, yeah, the tractor people. Yeah, so John Deere famously has been using the Digital Millennium Copyright Act to lock up repairs to its tractors, saying you have to take it into an authorized service dealer because we're going to lock up the software and not let you repair it, which is a big point of contention. to farmers because historically farmers have repaired their own tractors because it's faster and

cheaper. And as long as they know what they're doing, you know, it's going to help them get the crops in. And John Deere is not helping farmers have access to software. And for those of you who might think like, well, what do farmers know about software? A lot of them know quite a bit. We've got a lot of them in the audience for Daily Tech News show. And even if they don't, stopping them from being able to learn and repair their own tractors is. a point of contention. I imagine the documentation is humongous, too, more than anybody wants to plow through. Oh, my gosh, dude.

Can you imagine? Like, tractors without all the electronics seem complicated to me. I can't imagine what that's like. But I think it's fertile ground for people to learn, Brian. Yeah, that's true. Well, we can all grow from that, so. Yeah. And this Wozniak thing is just planting the seed, you know, that hopefully will grow someday.

Maybe there's a way they can combine the documentation and a lot of, legal form. Yeah. Yeah. I see where this is going. Well, I, you know, I hope they reap the benefits of all of us. I think reap was the only other word we hadn't used. So nothing's left. Do you, do you think this? One of us had worked Walk the Beans in somehow? Okay. I don't know. So do you think Wozniak doing this causes any kind of, I mean, you know, what's Apple going to do? They're not going to do anything. They're just going to, he's going to talk like. He's always been free to say stuff that maybe sometimes goes counter to their to their corporate. I'm sure he will have some uncomfortable conversations with some people.

But he's probably already had those, is my guess. What's different here is high profile public opposition. Now, he didn't bash Apple. If you listen to it, he chose his words carefully, not to, you know, throw too much shade. Like the hand that fed him. right but but he you know but he was clear that he's like hey if i hadn't had access i wouldn't be able to do this i think companies wink wink should should be helping people uh to do this so who knows maybe maybe waz going public puts a little bit extra pressure at least that's the hope

i'm sure rossman had uh to get apple to budge a little bit because they're fighting tooth and nail against the idea of these executive orders etc right yeah and they you know there's As much as they push security, you could, you know, their argument, it's such a funny double-edged argument because you could say, well, you know, part of our plans for being the most secure devices on the planet or secure ecosystems or whatever they're, you know, they push them as, that PR is that we have these lockdown systems that we can control and keep, you know, keep safe. At the same time, you could argue. That starts to confuse some issues. It's a clever gambit. Like, first of all, open source

software tends to be more secure because you got more eyes on it. But second of all, the locked down is more secure argument is about access to the app store. Right. It's about access to installation of software. It's not about you opening it up and repairing it. Right. It does, I don't know that you can make a good argument. Maybe you can, but I don't know you can make a good argument that gluing the back of your phone instead of putting in screws makes it more secure.

I suppose it makes it harder to crack in and do some kind of physical attack on your RAM, but that's pretty, low risk anyway. Yeah, that's my point. Like, at some point that argument, I don't think works at all. Not that they're even making that argument, but it must be weird, though, to have one of their, I don't know, in some ways he's almost like a, you know, a mythical creature

at Apple, but to have Wazzy, saying, yeah, the Great Waz. Yeah, and they're probably just kind of going, I hope he doesn't say anything too crazy. And he seems like so far he hasn't, but anyway, we'll see if there's any fault. I imagine they're not pleased. And they wish he hadn't done that.

I'm sure. And they will probably tell him that. But also, I don't think they're going to fire Waz. Stop sending him his 50 bucks or whatever. What are they going to do? Sorry, Waz. You're not getting your 50 bucks this week as of what you said. And he'll go, fine. You're not to be able to afford any more a segue polo for a while. He was such a proponent of those segways, which are now no longer being made. But I wonder if he's doing though. Like he still rides on or whatever. Those aren't being made anymore? No, they're done, right? Segway's out. I think. Didn't he isn't the technology and other products. But The upright Segway is, yeah, no longer being made by Segway. I wonder if I can get a cheap one now. Maybe. I was always curious about one. I was probably getting rid of his. Yeah, there we go.

You want a Wozniak original. Ooh, that'd be cool. All right. I did, did I ever tell you I rode on one of Wases's segways? No. Get out, really? What? Why?

How? What was the deal? There. I was producing the top 20 gifts holiday special for Tech TV. And we wanted to include the Segway on the list. on the list and someone at Tech TV was able to contact Waz and say, hey, can we borrow your

segways for the shoot? And so they loaned them to us and I got to ride around. Wow. Wow. That's cool. That's really cool. Yeah. I mean, I didn't meet the guy. I'm not sure how cool that really is. A little was is with you now as a result. But you could have smelled the handlebars

and said, oh, it smells like Watts. Yeah, I could have. Really glad I didn't do that. Nasty. Yeah, I'm glad you did it too. Well, all right, this and us, of course, so many other great discussions can be had. We had great discussion yesterday.

Oh, Doctor was on there with us. Owens, fantastic. I love hanging out with him. And talked about all kinds of cool stuff. If that sounds like your jam and you're looking for some tech news, today is your day. 230 Mountain Time Daily Technewshow.com for details. Tom, is there anything else going on that you'd like to mention to these people?

Yeah. If you are a DTNS subscriber, you probably already know this. But all through the month of July, we're doing a weekend series called Seniors in Tech. So on Saturdays, you'll get a special episode just for this month where Dr. Nicky Ackermans, you may remember her from America's Next Top Podcasts. She's, we've crossed the streams of her being our science correspondent and her stories Granny never told you podcast to have her interview seniors about their technological experience. So last week was Allison Sheridan to kick us off. Some great stories about her years in the aerospace industry as an engineer. And then this week, we have part-time paramedic Michael Musial,

whose career in tech includes developing modems for U.S. robotics, automotive electronics, establishing an ISP for his town in Michigan, Copper Harbor. So go check that out in your feed, a daily tech news show this Saturday. Oh, that sounds fantastic. Go check it out. Tom Merritt, everybody, Ace Detect on Twitter and the man with the plan. I don't know why I said that.

Tom Merritt, have a great week. We'll see you later. All right. What do you say about Nicole Spagnolo? I like that idea a lot. She's currently showing his offline, but I don't believe it. I just gave you that video, by the way, of the giant cat in Tokyo. Oh, let me see.

Oh, look at that. Oh, wow. Oh, my gosh. Oh, it's one of those weird scornment. It is. It only looks like that from that position on the street across the street. Right. If you go anywhere else, it does not look like that. It doesn't look right. But in Korea, they do this. I've seen a Korean one in South Korea where it's like a giant sloshing water container.

Really? Oh, that's cool. And it looks like it's about to just spill over into the street. That is so freaking cool. We're still a long way from Anna de Armas, Blade Runner, you know. trying to sell sex holograms to I mean, we're getting there, but we're not there yet. We're getting there, yes. First step, this weird cat thing.

Look at that. Oh, that's so rad. I feel like if I didn't know, if I was driving there and I didn't know, I'd be a little freaked. You'd be a little freaked out, yeah. But again, you'd see it, you'd have to be looking up right at the moment that it is perfectly aligned for you, because if you looked beforehand as you were coming down the street it would look as cool it would look it it's like that street art right where they do chalk art yeah exactly where you look at it from any other direction it's like yeah that doesn't

make sense there's there's something at the um iful tower right now this is a great talk well while we wait for nicole yeah but um somebody's done something that makes it look like the iful tower is uh balanced on a um you know the point of a rock or something like that it's like this really cool Let's see here. Rifle, Tower, um, sidewalk art? I don't know.

I don't know what the, uh, what the, uh, what the right search term is. Here we go. There we go. I'll send you a link. Okay.

I'm into it. Copy image, address, and paste. Uh-huh. Yeah. And there, there it is. Oh, look at that. Oh, wow. Yeah.

So like, you normally see the city, this, I guess, actually, this is a thing. you can stand on in front of it. There's a wall there. But, yeah, it looks like there's a big gap. Yeah, because you see where the wall ends. Yes, exactly.

Obviously, because the, and the art is black and white. But that's really cool. That's really cool. Yeah, that's really cool. I love that kind of stuff. I do too. But I kind of hate that you have to be at one angle to see it. You know what I mean?

Well, yeah. But then again, that's also what's amazing. Because if you move your camera around, it's like, whoa, look at this stretch. out in weird ways to fool the eye and then how did the artist know just how long to make this rock that looks normal when you're head on but but really long otherwise you think you'd have to if you were the artists you'd have to keep going back and forth like all right here's the position yeah yeah you imagine maybe they do cameras or something they set up a camera and just like oh did brian loses connection no for a second you did i lose my car oh for a second you were

stuck dancing around your thing oh what happened there that was weird all right well Nicole she no answer oh wait yeah mark she uh mark refreshed her computer and did not install discord so she has to install that super cool oh okay did this work oh hi Nicole are you there yeah I guess I don't know are you on your phone while you get discord installed you're totally fine no I'm on the web version of discord oh okay no does that yeah it's slowly working yeah yeah the web version is very similar to the desktop one is pretty much same thing i hear mark doing tech support over there and yeah exactly it's all good no worries no stress totally fine you're fine yeah you're fine no worries there she has video and everything it's

fantastic yeah um welcome to the show thanks for doing the thursday thing yeah we appreciate it did you get a whole reinstall or something or what's going on your pc yes because i the the computer itself just kept crashing like for no reason just crashing and then Mark's blaming me because I have too many tabs open. Yeah, my online husband yells at me for that too. Yeah, yeah. Wait, what? Oh, me.

Oh. How many tabs you got open right now, Brian? Well, usually when Brian says, I don't know what's going on. And my first thought is, well, how those tabs doing? And, you know, it's not as bad as you used to be. Because when they're open, they do take memory. Yes, it's true. So how's my sinking?

are you are we okay with your videos your mouth and your voice working very well it's it's sinking up but it's not it keeps coming in and out so i don't know if video's going to work or not you can keep it up if you want i like that oh there we got we had a great freeze frame of you for a second yeah we keep getting a freeze frame and then it and then it's but your voice is good you're all good yeah exactly and we don't seem to be delayed so i'm bummed i'm not going to see you this weekend for black widow oh i'm i am too you know family yeah i know obligate It's like to do stuff. When is the, that's this week?

I keep forgetting that movies this weekend. We're doing, in Denver Tadpool, we're doing escape rooms. We get two escape rooms booked for the Denver Tadpoolers and then Black Widow we're seeing at the theater right afterwards. Very nice. See, Scott, I, by that statement, I know you're not on TikTok very much because they remind me every day how many days are left. Oh, I don't get ads for that on there, weirdly. Oh, for Black Widow, how many days are left? it's all about your algorithm so my algorithm my algorithm sells me a lot of t-shirts where you can dump wine on it and not have it stained it have you guys seen the ads for those clothes

no TikTok is trying to sell me constantly on something where I can dump like chili on my pants and have it just slough off like it's nothing right that sounds like honestly that sounds like Snapchat Snapchat to me feels like the national inquirer of apps yeah that's interesting thing like if you were gone into Snapchat and you looked at like all the the pages of like weird stuff yeah oh yeah feels weird yeah it does feel i don't yeah i can't use it anymore i paid snapd weird alan alda is now on ticot oh oh really all right then he has a podcast too hey be jean how to uh create some gin in your tent does a does a does a mash clip oh yeah does educating the ticot generation who he is oh wow really interesting a lot that's so cool I was on a TV show called MASH. My kids love MASH, so they didn't have to work very hard.

So I believe Disney Plus will let me buy a rent Black Widow tonight. Oh, I thought it was Friday, too. I think so, right? 30 bucks. Early? Am I going to do it and watch the movie before I go see it with the Denver Tadpool in two days? I mean, I wouldn't, if I were you. Because why would you want to do that?

You want to go have the best time possible with them, right? Don't you want to? Well, I wouldn't. I know I'm going to see the movie multiple times. That's true. I don't know. Hey, knock yourself out, an extra $30. I know.

How can I resist? Yeah, maybe you'll do it. Look, Marvel and Brian are like, I don't know, sperm and eggs. Like Mark and Nicole is what they are. Yeah. Did you watch Loki last night? Yes. Did you already talk about Loki?

No. No. It's because I haven't watched it yet. I'm waiting. It hasn't watched any of it yet. Oh, my God. You've got to watch it. Well, I'm going to, I'm going to binge it.

I'm going to watch the whole thing instead of waiting week to week like everyone else. I hate that. And this is not a sport. Well, I mean, it's not going to do any. It's not going to tell anything. But freaking Richard E. Grant is the man. Just love him. He's great.

He's a good actor. Love that guy. Forgot he was in that. That's cool. It's funny because Mark really isn't that into it. He's fallen asleep many times. But I am just in it. So, you know, just fire beware.

You may not be into it as I am. And last night was all Easter egg fans. service. Oh, yeah, I was. Again, with no spoilers, so much stuff in the background is like, oh, that's such and such, and that's so-and-so, and that's such and such. That's all I'm going to say about that. Well, all right, then.

Don't worry, Claire Gack. We're not talking anything about it. Yeah, we're not talking about any of that. Happy with it. I'm happy with the show that I look forward to watching every week. I haven't felt that in a while. Did it die? Sorry, not die.

Did it end? Is this the finale yesterday or no? I think there's six. Next week is the finale. is the yeah okay oh watch start watching it now and by the time you know do one a night and then yeah I get it started this weekend

I think that's what I'll do what I did with Winter Soldier yeah I did the uh I watched Winter Soldier first three when they came out and then I caught then I did the rest as a final binge and I enjoyed that so that's why this time I was good way to do it too yeah this time I was like I'm just gonna do it whereas with like Wanda Vision I like binge three or four and then week to week

the rest of it and I hated that because it was like, oh, hurry up, hurry up, where are they? Finish this thing. It's a, I feel like it's a really good compliment to a show that I watch week to week. Yeah. Like, I don't know. It's raised to a certain level that I'm like, on it. Like, when's it coming out?

I'm there. Nice. Well, speaking of things that are out that we can watch and then talk about and recommend, we're going to be recommendals today. And it'll be other stuff. Yeah. Well, I'd seem like a good transition. Well, I recommendel Loki.

So there you go. Loki is very good. There's your recommendal. All right. Let's dive in here, Brian. We got a clip from you and you have set up for this clip. Yeah, this is not the thing that everybody thinks I'm recommendaling today. Oh.

But that is coming later. But this is a different thing that I also really enjoyed a lot. All right. Here it is. Movie or TV? TV. All right, here you go. He's had emotional outbursts.

Impulse control problems, depression, threats of violence. That's not it? I think that's last weeks. Oh, did your stuff not say? Oh, son of a... Mark! You're going to blame Mark. Mark turned off Dropbox last night while I was raiding.

Yeah, that was him. That was definitely Mark. Yeah, definitely Mark who did that. Okay, yeah, so you want to just drag it into Discord or something. I can pull over. I'll put it in Discord, yeah. So you didn't know my music. either for today. Yeah, I don't have anything. So that must be from last week, I guess. That's last

weeks. Yeah, exactly. All right, here comes. I'm putting it in there. Will it work? Uh, yes, it will. All right. Excellent. That's number one and then I'll put number two in and then, okay, cool. Here comes a solid. Oh, I heard a joke yesterday. Um, TikTok is no good, wait, hold on. TikTok is no good for bathroom, uh, content, but it's a solid number two. I can't remember how it went it was really dumb anyway that's a joke it was sort of it was a dad joke that is so appropriate for what you're about to hear oh well fantastic believe you crazy enough all right here's your here's your clip enjoy yeah my life is pretty much ruined oh your life is ruined please that sounds like a tuesday for me besides you're just a writer no one cares well actually

people really do care it's been a huge problem for me So, what was it? This joke that supposedly ruined your life. I gotta hear it. Senator Rogers is upset because he found out his kid is gay. Apparently, he heard it from one of the guys he was fucking off in the Senate cloak room. Yeah, I don't even do jokes like that. I was just trying to call him out for being a hypocrite because he was caught with a male escort.

It didn't help that it was a slow news day, but I... I guess I crossed a line or whatever. No, there is no line. It's just not funny. I mean, you should be blacklisted for how bad that joke is. Cool. Thank you so much for having me. I'm glad we did this.

This is Gene Smart again? That is Gene Smart, who has the best agent in Hollywood right now. Yeah. What's this show? The chat gave it to me. Hax. Yeah, it is Hax. Yeah, it's a brand new series, a limited series on HBO Max called Hax.

Gene Smart plays a Las Vegas comedian. who she's been doing 2,500 shows in the same hotel, same theater. And she gets paired up kind of against her will with a writer, an up-and-coming writer who's been blacklisted for a joke that she made on Twitter that you heard right there. And it's their, they're getting to work together, the pitfalls of all that in a nice little 10-episode, 30-minute episode series. And right now, Gene Smart, having such a renaissance. She's so good.

Like, she was great in Marevistown. She was great in Watchman, Legion. She's been in... Fargo Season 2, Fargo. Right. Exactly. Yeah. I mean, she's amazing in everything that she's been doing.

And I can't believe we forgot about her from her designing women. Yeah, it's been a while, but she's having a, yeah. The, the kind of character that she portrays, because I watched the trailer and I put that on my list to watch, it kind of reminds me of a, what's her face, Joan Rivers. Yeah, yeah. Oh, that's the kind of comedian she's playing. Yeah. Very much like that, except instead of it being like humor, yeah, I mean, it's very similar in her style, her Las Vegas comedian style of being a, uh, it sucks getting old, but I'm always horny kind of. you know, that thing that Joan Rivers always like to go to.

But it's her, obviously it's her, it's her off stage character that she plays on this that is so, so good. Well, I'm, I saw it as a thing. She's trying to see, I'm trying to remember if there's anybody else that's like, oh, yeah, I know that person from that other thing. There's a lot of new faces in this, Hannah Einbinder. is the writer that she gets paired up with. Oh, Christopher McDonald, who you know from, like, Happy Gilmore, the bad guy and Happy Gilmore. Oh, yeah. Star Trek connection, too, is that weird Star Trek episode

where him and, what's her face go? Was it Crusher? No, it was alternate version, alternate universe version of, what's her name came back, Lieutenant Yarr, she came back, or she came back to choose from the other alternate universe, and then they went off together instead of staying. with the new enterprise where she would have lived as... Right, right, right, right, yes.

He was also the voice of Kent Mansfielder, what his name was, in Iron Giant. He's fantastic in the Iron Giant. Oh, right. Yeah, you also get Caitlin Olson, who's from... It's always Sunny in Philadelphia. Oh, I love her.

She was also great on the Mick. Yeah, she plays Jean Smart's daughter. I love her. She's great. Yeah. Yeah, never... That's on HBO Max, 10 episodes, 30 Minutes, it's each two-night binge, really, really funny and kind of unpredictable as to where things end up, which I really, really liked. And I kind of want a season two, but I don't know if there's,

I think this is just a one-and-done kind of thing. Well, they don't call her Gene smart for nothing. That's right. Hey, Scott, I got a question. I'm looking forward to the chat. I just saw it. Someone said, they left you a drunk voicemail about a recommendal idea. did. Really? Is that true? I don't know. I saw it. Zio, G. What's her name? Claire or Clark? No. I think they deleted it because of look. Oh, no, Neo Zen.

What was the, when did they? Scott's not going to talk about my drunk voicemail thanking Nicole for a recommend. Well, when did they send it? Because I've got a ton in here that I haven't listened to yet. So the last one I got was on Sunday. Was it recent? Or was it this three-minuteer from Sunday? I wonder if this is... I got a long one. Let me play this. It was awesome.

Let me hit play. Oh, wait, description not available. How do I play it? Oh, here. Listen. Hey, Scott. Eric, I think part five of my messages. Is that him?

No? No, the person... Yeah, because he says it was a six-parter. So you've got to find all six parts of a person. Oh, wow. All right. Oh, I guess these all have a limit of three, two minutes, 59 seconds before they catch off.

So... All right, well, I'll go back and check those out, dude. I'm going to guess you really, really enjoyed Bluey. Yeah, probably Bluey, right? That's a good drunk thing. Border. That's what she wants. He wants to recommend his border. Yeah.

Oh, Border. Oh, my God. Brian and Scott, when he can watch Border? Yeah, when's Border happening? Border. Dude. All right, Brian, I see you. I don't know.

You don't know. We'll watch Border. I will know. You'll know because we'll lose our minds loving it. Brian, you got two clips. here. Do you want to play this out on here? I do. Let's do number two. This is the one that everybody's expecting. And let's just make it easy and get to it. All right, here you go. Welcome to our force, also known as research force. You'll be joining your counterparts in 2015 one at a fortified

research facility. Your function is to add your knowledge and skill set to theirs and prevent our extinction. Excuse me? Why don't we just jump back to earlier in the war? The jump link doesn't work that way. Time only flows in one direction. It's like a river. The jump link placed two rafts on that river, 30 years apart. Now we can jump back and forth between them, but both rafts will always keep moving forward. So why can't we just build more rafts? The jump link tech is held together with chewing gum and chicken wire. We've barely managed to make one very rudimentary wormhole.

If we weren't in an extinction level event, we'd still be jumping lab rats. Now we can jump you to 2015, and we can jump you back, period. Okay. I didn't know that movie was about time travel. Yes, it is Tomorrow War. And yeah, there's a lot of time travel in there. And gosh, it's, you know, that old time travel trope of, well, we created time travel, but it only works with this one very specific plot holy problem that we can't fix because we barely made it work. Perfect.

Yeah, The Tomorrow War Chris Pratt filmed that's brand new on Amazon Prime. It's got your, what's her name in there? I love her. Yvonne Strahofsky or Betty Gilpin? Oh, they're both great, but I love... They're both great.

Yeah, Strahovsky's one of my... She's on my handmaid's tail, and she blows my mind. She's really good on that. Yes, she's really good. And Chuck, J.K. Simmons is in this. The dude from, I think Sam Richardson is his name. Dude from Veep. you'll recognize him as soon

that was him talking a little bit in there about building more rafts and he is in Veep one of the funniest characters in Veep hands down I loved his character in Veep anyway alright so yeah there's a war in the future

against some evil aliens and the only way that we can win this war apparently is to take people from the present and time travel them to their deaths in the future to fight instead of maybe taking all the people, even taking all the people who are in the future and time traveling

them back to fight. I don't know. Wow. However, you know, as much, as much eye rolling as I do as I have about the time travel. And they do, they do get one of my biggest pet peeves about time travel right about creating a new timeline where everything that exists in one timeline doesn't change. So boom, good kudos to them for getting, forgetting that part right. It is a fun action romp. I mean, this is like, don't just park your brain at the door. This is your Armageddon. This is your...

Fourth of July movie. Independence Day. Yeah, yeah. The looper, whatever. It's still, it's still, it's still really, really good. Nice. I want to see it. I haven't taken the time because I knew it was either, it was either going to be just...

You do want to see it. I do want to see it. All right. Okay. I'll see it. I like dumb action. I'm into it. It's fine.

Stop. What? You don't want to see it, Nicole? You don't want to see it? You don't want to see it? You don't think I'll see it? I don't think you will. Why?

Really? Why don't you think you will? I just don't think he will. I'll bet I do because my wife loves Chris Pratt and there's probably, it may be the only thing I watch. Lots of shirtless Chris Pratt in this. And Luke Satt Walker totally nailed it. Looper is bad.

Tomorrow War is way better. It is way better. than Looper. Really? I like Looper. And not because of the not because of the time travel holes of Looper, but no, this is just it's acted better. It's your

almost your Independence Day aliens, but it's got a really kind of a clever twist to the whole thing. All right. Well, I am going to see it. Now I'm really going to see it just to prove Nicole wrong. I'm going to watch that. They go. Good. Is that all it takes? I watch her. You'll never watch Parasai. I watch her. You'll never watch.

I watch her recommendals more than Brian's half the time. I watch hers almost always. Like I can vouch for that, Nicole. Yeah. I watched that. That old person, Florida weird documentary. I loved that. That was great.

Scott likes those documentaries and those clever, kid-friendly animated fantasy series. Yes. Bring those on. Plus that dog movie. That weird dog cartoon was great. I forgot the name already. He said it earlier.

Bluey? Bluey. Blue is great. I did watch that. Anyway, so Tomorrow War, it's on Amazon Prime, and it is definitely worth seeing. It's better than I'm making it sound. I do the eye rolling with the time travel tech. There's also some plot holes.

There's stuff that, well, why didn't anybody think of this kind of thing? Turn off your brain. Yeah, exactly. Make some popcorn like Tina and I did and enjoy a good popcorn movie. All right. Sounds good. All right. Here's mine.

This is you want dark and depressing. have I got what you need today. So here you go. It's a series. It's on Netflix. I'm five episodes in to the total of eight. And I'm ready to recommend it. Here it is.

The first one never forgets you. You don't have kids, so you don't know. They hold it against you forever. Come on. Better talk, Fred. It's true, Freddy. You just don't realize it. Okay.

For their whole lives there, The sun and everything revolves around them. And then one day, you bring their baby brother home from the hospital, and in that instant, I'm all right, Freddy? They learn in that moment that they are just another planet. But what they don't realize is it's their mom. She's the sun. They just spin around her.

all right guesses I can't even tell who those voices are those like people probably know what you'd know and they also are barely there they die soon that might be a hint in its own self all right you'll never get it because why would you

I saw the first season and recommended it on this very segment years ago a couple years ago I guess it'd been 2019 and this is the new season of Black Summer Oh Tina's watching this Yeah it's a zombie thing it's very much like the first season

a lot of the same actors returning although not as well people die in this show but it's about the Zambis it's another one of these Zambi shows it's based on that Z nation Z nation yeah which is a whole other thing

but what makes this series interesting certainly the first season was like this but this one even more so it's like anthology kind of so everything's told in a series of vignettes mostly no music it's like there'll be a black screen with a white title that'll say

the manner and you don't know what that means but then suddenly you're in a manner and you're figuring out what's going on in this manner and there's a whole story in there and then usually something horrible happens in the manner and then they do another vignette there's usually three or four of these per episode but they all kind of come back together

and some of the characters from the first season particularly the lady played by Jamie King you know her from old 90s movies Yeah, Sin City, too. And Sin City, that's right. She's there. Her daughter's still there. Let's see, the actress, Christine Lee, who plays son, is in it again from the previous season.

She's, I can't remember if she's mute and deaf. She's definitely mute. So she's kind of an interesting character. Then a whole bunch of new people that keep coming and dying and keep coming and dying. And there's a lot of very, like, you know, the zombies are awful, but what's really bad is each other. So watch out. my water, you know, like a lot of infighting and sort of stuff and there's there's kind of a war happening between different factions. You don't have a lot of information about them, but the

story's being kind of told in reverse. It reminds me, this is a weird comparison, but you know that episode of Seinfeld where they go to the wedding in India, but they tell that whole story backwards. Yeah. Yeah. Until they get to the beginning. It's a little like that. Oh, interesting. Not exactly because there's some. Memento kind of. Yes, Memento is another good example. A little bit of that. and it's fascinating because one moment you're like, my gosh, who just sniped that guy from that far away? But eventually you find out.

Right. Exactly. Yeah. There's a bunch of that and kind of builds on each other. Lots of crossover of events you thought were wholly separate. Then you find out later they were kind of combined. And it's dark and it's angry and people are dying and it's bloody and it's zombies. And it's all the stuff you expect this sort of thing to be.

But I just think it's crafted really well. And I thought the first season was as well. This is a great continuation of that. I'm not done with it yet. Apparently there's, so throughout the thing, there's a bunch of times where people are like stopped dead in their tracks while they hear an airplane going overhead. And nobody can figure out who this plane is,

how to communicate with them, or what the crap is going on, or why they keep circling around. And then they go back to fighting on the ground or avoiding zombies or locking themselves in a house or whatever it is. They're all, oh, it's also winter, snow's everywhere. They're up north, trying to escape the worst of it, which is south.

And that makes things harder because people are getting frostbite and dying in the snow. and all the sort of stuff. Anyway, bottom line is, I really like how it's structured. I want to see if they figure out this plane thing. So they've got me on the hook and I'm enjoying it. And if you like this sort of stuff,

if you're a genre fan of zombies like I am, then you'll like this. If you're not, then stay away because you never liked it in the first place. Because this is absolutely one of those. Tina really digs this. Yeah. So it's very good.

It's very good. I'm glad to hear that. All right, Nicole. Oh, that's, by the way, Netflix. and uh black summer season two season two yeah or one you know start with one work your way through two um okay let's uh drive over to nicole's house and find out what she's recommending recommend it today Nicole what you got something from YouTube oh very nice well all right they've been feeding this to me in my like ads and I'm like fine I'll watch it so

I wait until you recommend something from quibby No, this is, so Cobra Kai was a YouTube original series. Oh, that's true. Yes, that's true. Yes. So this is a YouTube original series. It came out in 2019. Here's the trailer for it. Here we go. Excellent. Here, I'm hitting play. It's coming. It's happening. It's loading. I'm so tired of truffles.

Oh, me too. I hear they have. great food vehicles below the line, but I'm simply too scared to go down there. This is so vibrant. What is that? Is this some kind of theme park? Those are called lounge romance. Oh. People below the line watch their clothes. Ew.

The upper classes are assigned mates at birth. At Najari Lab, we use DNA testing. And you get your perfect match. The one that's the one. This is your one that's the one. This is yours. Huh. Ooh, an anthology.

Brought the paperwork you requested. It feels good to have you inside me. Our society will no longer need physical intimacy at all. All I know is from this trailer. Why is it not pausing? Is that that was, Jordi is in this. What is this? LeVar Burton, we saw.

So the show is called Weird City And in this world There are people that live above the line These are the rich people And then there's below the line These are the people in poverty That have to wash their own laundry And they have diners below the line

So it is an anthology Stories that happen in this city And it's very weird. Probably the best description in the comments I saw was if ordered black mirror on wish. Oh, wow. But it does have a pretty impressive cast. It's funny. It's weird. It's right up my alley. You had Michael Sarah. I don't know if you heard or if you saw him. He's in the second episode. There was Rosario Dawson

is in that episode. The first episode is called The One. That's the one. You have Dylan O'Brien. Was he from? I don't know. It was one of those teen.

Teen Wolf. Oh, no, no. Was it Teen Wolf? Teen Wolf. Yeah. And Al Salinsky on Teen Wolf. Oh, yeah, there he is. Al Bundy is in it as well.

How do we say Al Bundy? Ed O'Neill. Ed O'Neill. in that. Oh, I like Edonia. Oh, he's the one that said he was lined up with some bearded guy and he kind of stepped back a little bit and thought that was weird for his dating profile or whatever. Right. That's exactly. So that episode called the one that's because everyone that's born in the above the line area automatically gets partnered when they are born. People that come to come from below the line, they don't have a partner yet. So he actually, his family made an app, made a lot of money so they were able to move above the line. So it's just, it's, I actually enjoy the show. I'm, I'm on episode three now. But it's episodic.

I will tell you, episode two is really hard to get through. It's very, very uncomfortable. Oh, really? No, but is it episodic or is it like anthology? It's anthology, but it's episodic, but it's an anthology every episode. episode, right? Meaning it's a different cast. Yes. LeVar Burton does show up. Loop kind of thing.

Yeah. Like that. LeVar Burton does show up in all of the episodes. Well, most of the episodes. He's the cryptkeeper style. He's the through line. Yeah. He's the guy, the scientific guy. Cool. I don't know.

I like this. This is the, I like this kind of stuff because I really liked, like as a Tales from the Loop, I thought was really like you give us a universe, but then give us tell us all these individual stories that are maybe loosely connected in that universe yeah it looks cool of our bird's a weird pick don't think you need um premium to watch it but i don't know i have premium or the you know they add free stuff so i think i think you can watch it it's been out for a couple years i don't have premium let's see weird city let's let's see if it is uh it is currently available episode one oh no you're oh it is premium but the first two episodes are free.

So you watch the first two get hooked, pay for premium, and get the rest, I guess. Just wait for it to come to Netflix. Oh, it's got Laverne Cox. I like her a lot. She's great. Yeah, she's great. All right. I'm in.

Ooh, Gillian Jacobs. Oh, you like her. I do like Gillian Jacobs a lot. Yeah. All right. It will give you black mirror vibes, but not right there. What is premium these days? Because they always have a different name.

Is that just their $10 a month and get rid of ads? I don't know what it's called. I just called it premium. It used to be YouTube red, right? Or is that a different? Well, it is called premium. It says right here, it requires premium, but they had bread, then they had YouTube, I don't know, music or whatever. Like, I don't know what they're doing over there.

Well, I just clicked a subscribe button, and it didn't ask me if I wanted to pay any more money. Whoa. I just clicked on the YouTube original subscribe. Now, is that mean, hold on a second. I don't know what that means. What did I just commit to? You just subscribe to their channel. That's all you did.

Oh, that's all I did. Yeah, I subscribe to the channel. But I'm on episode three. Yeah. And I'm able to watch it. You must have premium. Are we, do we have premium? Oh, I didn't think we did.

Oh, well, I don't know. Maybe they effed up. Maybe anybody can watch it if they want to. I don't know. Well, all right. Then there you go. There is. Premium covers.

YouTube premium free for three months, then $11.99 a month. Okay. And that means no. ads on YouTube as well, which is kind of nice. Yep. Exactly. I'm not doing that. Okay. Well done. It's a good show. Yeah, I want to see it. I think it looks great. I did no idea. This was a thing.
