On this episode of The Morning Stream.
Many people are taking witchcraft very much more seriously.
They believe it's made up of much more than just old wives' tales told in some shabby gaslit backwater of Victorian Bloomsbury.
How many witches of all types would you as an expert say are operating here in Britain today?
Well, witches, like everything else, has governed very much by supply and demand,
and the population will carry its certain percentage or quota.
The hair smells like menthols anyway.
The morning stream
The morning stream.
The morning stream.
Sweep the leg.
Good morning, everybody.
Welcome back to the morning stream.
It's TMS for Wednesday, November 10th, 2021.
I am Scott Johnson.
He is Brian I bit.
I am, and I've got my quote of witches too.
So that's good.
All right.
I don't know what's going on.
We should all have our quote of witches.
That's a collective, right?
Right? It's people always thought it was a coven of witches. No, it's a quota.
It's a quota of witches. I've got a quota of witches. Yep. Murder of crows. Quota of witches.
Heard of cattle and a, what's a bunch of monkeys? What do we call them?
A barrel. A barrel of monkeys. Is it a troop? It might be a troop.
There is a troop, yes.
Yeah, it could be a troop. I think it even depends on the type of monkey.
I'll just, sorry, you brought this up, so now I have to say it. Barrel of monkeys, worst toy I ever had when I was a kid.
it's so dumb it's just a barrel full of little plastic monkeys and what can they do they can hook their hands together and hang from something that's the extent of the toy well that's the point of the game though is to try and pull out as many monkeys as you can by you know pulling one and then turning and trying to get them to hook arms and pull up another one okay now what you've just done is blown my mind because I didn't know there was a game involved it was an actual game involved it wasn't just
hook monkeys together.
I had no idea.
I really didn't know that was a game.
I never played the game then.
I just dumped it out and hooked them up and went,
all right, well, I guess that's it.
Moving on to whatever Tonka thing I've got.
I had no idea.
You either, I think you either pull them out of the barrel
or you dump the pile on the table and then try and you can only hold one monkey
and you've got to lift and connect them all to get the largest,
number of monkeys you can.
And would people be successful in acquiring multiple monkeys in one pole?
Sure.
Sure.
Yeah.
Because, I mean, as you're pulling them up, you can kind of, you know, it's like those
movies where somebody's trapped in a jail cell and the keys are hanging on the, you know,
on the post outside, and they can kind of throw something, but they can kind of shimmy the
rope left or right or that sort of thing to try and get it to, so you shimmy the monkeys
left and right to get them to hook arms and pull.
I should have known there was a strategy.
I had no idea that this was a thing.
I'm blown away by this.
How long did it take me to learn this?
I had those things in all my life when I was a kid.
Next, you're going to tell me that there was a game involved with Connect 4.
I just dropped the chips down in the thing and hit the button and make them all fall out.
What was the other one?
Someone said in the chat.
Oh, it's like mousetrap.
No one ever played it.
Yeah.
I knew that, but I knew it was a game.
We played the game.
I mean, it's hard not to know that there's a game involved because there are actual spaces on the board that you're putting everything on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
played the game maybe once or twice, but really it's all about assembling your big
Rube Goldberg device.
Yeah, it's your mini Rube Goldberg child time thing that you built.
Exactly.
It was a great time to be alive.
You learn cause and effect.
Yeah.
You learn how complicated you can make things to have them achieve one simple goal.
Darth Swifty wins, though, with this comment.
You mean I can build with Legos?
I thought they were just throwing at my brother.
Yeah.
That's right.
Yeah.
I thought they were just for walking on.
Yeah, no, they're...
Dual use, multiple use, toys, those damn things.
All right, so rough night.
I'll share it with you why.
Oh, no.
Yeah, didn't get a lot of sleep, and here's why.
At 2 o'clock in the morning, here's what I hear.
I was going to capture it, but then I was too tired.
But here's the sound.
Beep, meep, beep.
Like that.
Three meeps in a row.
Not one meep, not two meeps, three meaps.
All right.
How long will pause?
between just a sets of meats like that sets of meaps so i knew it wasn't uh no i mean how long a pause
between sets of meeps oh oh oh gosh that's probably 30 seconds oh okay wow so it sucks pretty frequent
yeah yeah pretty frequent and so what it turned out to be is it's our co2 monitor thing oh sure yeah
this is the second time in a week that it has gone off and we can't figure out why but it's also
in light of we have two
I'm sorry three other
CO2 detectors that are not going off
the only one that is going off
is 10 years plus old so it's old
and I think it's just like
I think I detect something I'm not sure
meep meep like it's just an old man
trying to still do its job
so we get up we double check everything
the other monitors which are brand new
aren't saying everything's fine
and it's in the same room as this thing
so we think it's just malfunctioning
The problem is when it was built into the house, it's part of a bigger honeywell protection system thing they had at the time, which we don't use at all now.
Okay.
Because why would you?
Because it's old and shitty and there's way better.
This is like pre-internet of things and all that.
And Anchor makes 11 products that do the same thing for $2,99.
Exactly.
Well, exactly.
That's a great point.
I don't even thinking about how easy it is to just go buy the ship.
But it's not, you know, and we're not going to pay.
the whatever 25 bucks a month it was to keep that thing alive.
And they were always like, well, we could come out and install the latest, greatest.
I'm like, no, I'm not spending $1,000 on your stupid idea.
So we just let all that lapse and sit and whatever we could turn off, we did and all that.
But there's still some like, you know, grandfathered stuff in there.
And one of them is the stupid CO2 thing.
And the reason it's a pain, by the way, just a CO detector.
It's not, I keep seeing CO2.
Why do I say that?
Yeah, dioxide, CO2, monoxide, CO.
Yeah, exactly.
That's what I meant.
One oxygen module.
You've got the carbon module or a molecule, but just one oxygen molecule.
We're after the silent killer is what we're trying to get here.
So, anyways, I mean, it's good to know that it's not a problem, and this thing's just acting up because it's old.
But it's also 2 o'clock in the effing morning.
Why are you doing it right now?
So anyway, it's all like built-in kind of hardware-wise into the wall.
I can't just unscrew it.
um so i'm trying to figure how to turn that damn thing off i want to rip it out can you at least
get to where you can and it's not battery right it's built into the house's wiring correct
that's the problem or yeah i mean i just i can you know i could tear it apart literally put a
hole in the wall it's fine patch it up it's not that big a deal you might have to if you can't
get the the whole unit off in a clean way can you uh can you get like a little mini uh emp uh blast
and just fry that one device.
Do they have like a small foot radius EMP device?
Yeah, exactly like Anchor for 1999, the mini-em-P blast.
Once again, Anchor bailing us out on Amazon.
Yeah, I don't know what I'm going to do, but it did confirm a thing for me,
a theory I've had for a while, and maybe this is common knowledge.
But I was never really sure if my dreams happen in real time,
meaning if a dream takes 10 minutes, did I experience a 10-minute period of dreaming?
No way. No way it doesn't.
Or is it, bam, flash, like a flash story.
And you still feel it in a linear way.
Yes, right.
You feel like it's, you know, 20 minutes of things have happened.
But you wake up and it's like, wow, I've been asleep for a minute and a half.
Yeah.
And I think there's plenty of science that supports that.
But as a person who, you know, if you experience it, it always feels linear and like you're in the middle of it and it took hours.
And, you know, that sucks because you feel like that may be screwed with your sleep.
but really it was a flash it was like bam and he had it's basically the inner light episode of star trek the next generation there you go oh no no no not that one the one where Picard has that whole extra you know whole separate life learns to play the flute all that stuff right uh he's knocked unconscious on the bridge for like uh half an hour or something that's right he's on the floor for like 20 minutes the one i guess iichor's right subros is the horrible one oh no yeah that's
No, that episode has the opposite effect.
It's only an hour long, yet it feels like five hours.
Yeah, you're not kidding.
By the way, here's a great line from that movie or that TV show.
He has a Peter Piper playing the flute.
Yeah, I remember that scene.
It was great.
Peter Piper played the flute.
I love that.
Anyway, Peter Piper played flute.
So anyway, so here's what happens.
I'm in the middle of, or I'm having a dream.
And that dream involved a machine, like a computer going,
meep, beep, beep.
Oh, geez.
And it did it right then, which tells me that whole dream was flash inserted exactly at the moment that the beep happened.
And so they integrated with each other.
And our brains are weird.
And that's all I wanted to say.
Our brains are effed.
Yeah.
Yeah, I didn't enjoy it.
And then I couldn't go back to sleep.
It's supposed to be loud.
It's supposed to warn you.
Oh, no.
Right, right.
There's poisonous, silent gas, odorless gas in the house.
get the f-out kind of thing, but, and my wife, just to be safe,
she's like, well, I'm opening these windows anyway.
And I'm like, well, honey, I think that thing's just effed.
And she's like, well, I think it is too, but let's just be careful and whatever.
And I'm like, the other CO2 things aren't ringing at all.
She's like, it doesn't matter.
So she opens up like all the windows.
It's like 38 degrees outside.
Yeah, no kidding.
It feels like a bad trade-off.
Maybe what you do is do you find the breaker for that,
because it'll probably be a bunch of things in that area, right,
that you find the breaker in your
electrical box.
Turn that off, then get a power drill
and just drill right into the center
of that CO2 detector.
I like it.
Just kill it right where it's hard.
Just exactly.
Just like, from hell's heart,
I stab at thee.
I'm into that.
I might have to film that if I do that.
Yeah, no kidding.
Just make sure you turn off all, you know,
the power to all that area.
Well, how did your, how was puzzled punt?
while I was dealing with that, or while that was warming itself up.
Puzzle bind was a lot easier.
Yeah.
So this was, man, this was a great set of puzzles.
It was all dealing with the, as I guessed, the seven wonders of the world, ancient world.
Yeah.
So you had the Colossus of Rhodes and the Pyramid of Giza and all that stuff.
Lighthouse of Pharos?
No.
Is that right?
Lighthouse of pharos?
Oh, I don't know.
I think that's right.
Anyway.
So, you.
of the puzzles dealt with a different different one of those and um if you've never done puzzled
pint i am here to tell you that uh um oh yeah alexandria that's it ferros at alexandria lighthouse
at alexandria lighthouse and ferros right okay um go to puzzled pint if you've never done one
these go to puzzle pint go to the puzzles menu download the pdfs print them and have fun at your
own pace leisurely with these puzzles because they are freaking brilliant they were brilliant and it's a
really easy set of puzzles to get into you don't have a lot of crap to cut apart um nothing nothing no scissors
no tape on on last nights and um it really gives you a good idea of everything that um uh that puzzle pint
has really really cool that's awesome seems like a good time and you and you remind me kids
You reminded me before the show, no one wins, right?
There's just, you just play.
Right, right.
You just go there.
You really are going there with the intent of just having fun, completing the puzzles.
Yeah, I mean, you know, on your, you're the top sheet that they give you, you'll write down your start time.
And then when you're finished, you'll write down your end time.
But there's no prizes.
There's no, ah, these guys take two and a half hours.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, none of that.
It's, you know, it's all for fun.
and to support local restaurants and independent breweries and, um, uh, taverns and bars and
restaurants in the area. It's really cool. It's awesome. Yeah, I need, I've never done it,
but I'd like to do it sometime. Yeah. I mean, it's free. Download the puzzles. You don't have to
give them your email address or anything. You just go, you download the PDF, um, print it out or,
or do it with your Apple Pencil on your iPad if you're in one of these weird houses that don't
have a printer anywhere in the house. Sure. Weird. Weird. Weird. Like me. I don't have one.
That's what I'm saying, Scott.
You're a weird anti-printer person.
I am.
I don't know what my problem is.
My other one broke and I just, I, you know what, though?
Listen, if you can get away with it, that's great.
I haven't had a-
I ship so much stuff and I don't want to sit there at the post office and wait.
That's a good point.
Yeah, I want to print stuff.
I want to put it in the mailbox, a package, an envelope with some shirts in it,
and just deal with it and not have to deal with anything else.
Well, here's the two excuses I have.
All my merch, Dave handles, so he doesn't tell us all that.
Yeah, that helps.
That helps a lot.
Second thing.
Dave is your printer, basically.
Kind of, yeah.
But if I do have something...
HP office jet.
Exactly.
But if I need to...
His new cartridges are more money
than he was when I bought him.
Anyway, my wife is also real good at like,
oh, hey, we need to send this free thing out
to a winner on TMS.
She'll take care of it.
So she goes to the post office and waits forever.
I don't have to do any of that.
So, yes, on the one hand,
I figured out how to be a printerless life.
On the other hand, or on one hand,
on the other hand, everyone else is doing it for me.
So you're not wrong.
I mean, I wouldn't mind another laser just to have around,
but I just haven't gotten around.
See, and what I did is I realized that my printing needs are so little,
are so few that I do that HP, whatever it is, H.P. Smart, H.P. Inc., whatever it is.
So basically, it's a little subscription thing, super cheap printer,
and then I'm on the very, very base level of this thing's on the internet.
It says, oh, he's out of black ink, or he's going to be soon.
Send him another cartridge.
How's the, what is that?
What's the price of that?
And do you feel like it's a good value?
I don't even know, $4.99, like, six months.
I don't think, I don't know the last time I paid it because my printing needs are so few and far between.
That's not too bad, though.
No.
No. And this other project, this freelance deal that I'm doing where I'm redeploying computers, again, I don't want to sit there and wait of FedEx to write up a label and that sort of thing. I want to slap a label on there, have it automatically let FedEx know that there's a package waiting to go out. I've got four or five of these coming in and out every week. So printer for me, there'd be no way I could. You'd have to do it. Yeah. I tend toward laser, black and white laser because they don't dry out. The tone of the last.
forever tone of replacement cartridges aren't too bad like it's kind of the way to go but
I say that but the one I well I guess I had it for like 12 years the laser printer after 12
years is the one that died and I'm talking like old you USB 1.0 square connector on the
one side it's like it may as well be parallel it's so damn old surreal port but we're better now
we're better now totally cool all right done away time you might know him you might even like
him. I like him a lot. I do too. I think he's pretty great. And I like today's category a lot.
Oh, do you? I didn't see it yet. I do. I guess you didn't, you don't say. You tell us.
You can't see it until I start the game. Yeah, that's right. You can get on the feud board, but you can't see what the topic is.
Glad you said that, because I haven't gotten in yet. I'm getting in now. Here's the buzzer test.
Sweet, it worked. There you go. All right. Reset. Reset that. Okay. Hey, I hear some. I hear some.
Someone's voice already for this.
Look who it is.
It's Brian Dunaway, joining us from South Carolina and the home of all things
Mission Deep.
Hello, Brian. How are you doing over there?
Oh, hi, Scott and Brian.
Hey, man.
Hello.
Haven't talked to you since Monday.
Weird, weird, weird.
Weird, man.
It's been a normal week.
Yeah.
What a weird thing to happen in November.
Yeah.
Actually, it gets real weird for me.
We got early Thanksgiving this Sunday with my side of the family because all of them are going to be
out of town.
on actual Thanksgiving, so we're having a full-blown Thanksgiving this Sunday.
The turkeys are stoked.
The whole thing, yeah, the turkeys are stoked.
By the way, turkey's kind of hard to find right now.
I don't know what's going on there, but.
Oh, God.
A little turkey shortage business?
Turkey shortage.
Yeah.
Turkey shortage was my resting name for about five years.
Why are you trying to create a turkey panic, Scott?
Look, I don't want to cause a turkey panic.
But I will say this.
My wife was in the store looking for a turkey, and she was standing by these two other ladies.
And they were having this conversation where they said, we're the problem.
We're creating the shortage just by being here and demanding we get our turkeys early.
We are the problem.
And I thought, you know what?
You are kind of the problem.
This is funny.
I've heard other people out and about.
They're like, you have I had a Thanksgiving in two years.
So I'm starting everything early.
So that's probably where the shortage is.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Really heading out.
Early shortage.
Yeah.
And this is going to be, you know, relatively, comparatively early Thanksgiving.
Well, 25th.
I guess it's probably right in the middle of the earliest and the latest dates it can be.
I think that sounds right to me.
I think what, 21st is the earliest it can be if the first falls on a Thursday?
Something to that effect.
But, yeah, we're trying.
It's Thanksgiving, not turkey giving.
Come on.
We'll make it through.
We'll make it through.
Everything will be fine.
Let's find out who this listener is, though, so we can make it through this segment.
Hi, who's this?
Hi, it's Kit London.
How are you guys?
Kit London.
Look, and this isn't even, I mean, you could say it's a conflict of interest because Kit and Brian play a video game together every week.
But I'm not going to say that.
I'm not going to say that I think the rules hold.
We're good.
I think Kit can play.
Name video games Brian Dunaway has played with Kit London.
Yep.
The one answer.
Graveyard keeper.
There's only one.
Well, anyway, it's good to have you here.
Number one answer is.
Exactly.
Brian will now explain to you how and what you could win, Brian.
Yes, I will.
It's time to play the tad.
Pooley feud. I've surveyed the tadpool on some nerdy topics. And Scott and Brian will have to
predict the answers that they gave us. And it's their job to see how many of those answers they
can guess. Kit, your job is more important than ever because you're going to be working with
one of these chuckleheads. And if you and your teammate wins, you're going to get a
prize package. That includes a game that really should be given out tomorrow, but we don't
play for you tomorrow. 1111, Memories Retold. And Sword Legacy Omen.
Oh, wow.
Oh, tomorrow's 11-11.
Veterans, Veterans Day.
Well, yeah, but it's also it's Skyrim 10-year anniversary day.
Oh, yes, far more important.
Far more important.
Far more important than the people who are, sacrifice, survive.
Thank you for your Skyrim.
Because back in the day, it was 11-11-11.
It was like this holy moment of, like, video game release, and now it's 11-11-21.
Anyway, all right, sorry, back to your name.
All right, anyway, so those are the games you can win.
That's the good news, is that if you win this, you install it today and then play it first thing tomorrow,
and it's like you're playing it on the day it was meant to be played.
How great is that?
Nice.
You guys need a topic, though, to be able to actually play this game.
I'm happy to say this was another huge one for the Tadpool, 563 responses with answers.
However, there turned out to be 115 different answers that people gave.
So this one had a lot of people.
people giving answers to it, but a lot of varied answers.
But we have the top 10 on the board.
Yeah.
And I will have you put your hands on your buzzers.
Very few people said pass on this one.
All right.
Name.
I don't know, not name.
We asked the tadpool.
Hands on your buzzers.
How do I do this thing again?
We asked the tadpole, who is your favorite stand-up comedian living or dead?
Oh, Jack, got it.
Jerry Seinfeld.
Jerry, show me Jerry Seinfeld
Number 10 answer on the board
It gives you some good points
But it gives you nine answers that can beat it for
He's the goat, man
Yes, he is
I don't know, everybody's still giving us so much love
And it's on everybody's mind
I'm not sure if those ass before or after
How about Norm McDonald's?
Oh, show me Norm MacDonald
Oh, he beat me
Damn it
Just just enough and gave myself some points
That's right. Nice. That's a good way to do it.
And you did hear me say, well, you must have, because you said Norm McDonnell, living or dead.
Yeah, that's what, that was the thing I was waiting on.
I was like, he's going to say something.
And he said it.
Yeah.
Perfect.
All right.
So, uh, you're going to be, you have control of the board.
And you've got Kit London as a partner, much like your video game playing stream.
Yes.
Let's see what kind of damage the two of you can do in this.
Yeah.
Yeah. Kit London. How are you?
Fabulous. How is it?
How are you?
Excellent.
We're just going to have our own show here today.
Why not?
I kid.
Yesterday.
Yeah.
That's right.
Did you guys play yesterday?
Is that when you plays on Tuesdays?
Just a little over 20 hours ago.
Not too many hours ago.
Last night at 6 p.m. Eastern Time.
So not that long ago.
Nice.
So it's perfect.
So we're still in sync.
We're still in sync.
Yeah.
Which is not a question or answer in this game.
In sync is a band and not a comedian.
No.
Kids, do you have anything off top of your head?
have several comedians that I love.
George Carlin.
Oh, George Carlin. There you go.
Perfect.
All right.
That was in my list.
Let's start with that one.
Show me George Carlin.
Oh, yeah.
Number one.
Yeah, number one answer on the board.
That was almost William Shatner level there.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, Jesus.
George Carlin, number one on the board.
Oh.
Oh, the beauty.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, Jesus.
Nothing can destroy.
What would jeep?
Long one, here it is.
Oh, Jesus.
Yeah, oh.
They're perfect.
Oh, Jesus.
And you thought it was gone and dead.
I brought it back.
Yeah.
Did you have another, another guess?
Um, Fluffy.
Fluffy?
Who is that?
Fluffy.
Oh.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Fluffy, yes.
Perfect.
I don't know who Fluffy is.
Who is that?
Fluffy is also known as Gabriel Iglesias.
Yes.
It's not Scott's favorite.
the comedian, apparently.
Not a favorite of Scott.
I don't know who that is.
Show me Gabriel Fluffy Iglesias.
Oh, that's a shame.
Number 13, number 13 on the list.
Oh, still, that was good.
That was a good.
That was a good, it was a good guest.
Didn't make the top 10, though.
Now, I'm going to, the one I'm going to do, one of the most brilliant comedians of all
time.
He is currently having a moment of negativity.
It's not going to.
well, but, you know, it doesn't change the fact that he's, uh, he's brilliant. I wish he wouldn't
be, uh, kind of an ass in some other ways. But, uh, anyway, I think Dave Chappelle's on here.
All right. Show me troubled stand-up comedian Dave Chappelle. Yeah.
Number four on the list. Number four. That's actually lower than I thought. I thought that
would have been higher. Yeah. I think it might have been higher a few years ago. I think that's when
it would have been higher. Yeah. This actually was asked before the, the kerfuffle.
transphobic comments
and that special.
It might be lower then now.
It probably would be lower.
I don't know, yeah.
Nobody went back into the survey and said,
I'd like to change my answer, please.
That's hilarious.
That's why I'm hesitating on a certain other name.
I'll hold it in just in case,
but because, you know,
it's hard to deny the impact on comedy,
but anyway.
Right, exactly.
Let's go with,
uh,
oh,
the name just.
There's so many great ones.
a problem. We only got 10 that we can
choose from. I really like Brian Regan.
Let's put Regan on there. He's fantastic.
Show me
Brian Regan.
Oh, that's a cry.
I know. It was very disappointed to see
Brian Regan barely get a mention, but here's
where I think the
tadpool is a little
a little shifty. Somebody
in the tad pool is a little shifty.
There were four
votes or four
submissions of Brian Regan
Yeah.
All of them spelled it brain Regan.
And they all came in, you know, I didn't see what time, but I'm guessing they all came in about the same time.
So Tadpool, come on.
You're not picking a president.
There's no stuff in the ballot box and stealing the election.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, you know, if you were the person who voted four times for Brain Regan, then the gig is up.
Yeah.
Well done.
Or the jig is up.
Jig.
Gig.
Gig.
Gig.
Gig.
Okay.
The jig is up.
All right.
So we're back to me.
So we're back over to Kitten Brian.
Yes.
Excellent.
The graveyard keepers are going.
Kitten Brian.
Miao.
Miao.
Miao.
Miao.
Now.
Okay.
So I am going to try to pull one out of the hat here.
There's two that I'm thinking of that I grew up.
There's two comedians that I grew up on when I was super young.
Yeah.
And I'm trying to think how the tad pool are they skewing a little older or a little younger.
I'm going with, uh,
Richard Pryor.
Oh, yeah.
Richard Pryor.
Because we all had the album, right?
Hell yeah.
Oh, yeah.
My mom did not want me to have it, but I had it.
That's right.
Show me Richard Pryor.
Oh, my gosh.
Richard Pryor number 16 on the list.
Okay.
He's up there that did not make the top ten.
Carlin bridges the gap, but my,
Richard Pryor does that.
Okay.
Yeah, that's what you learned from the story.
He is funny. He is great.
All right.
Citi in the chat room, by the way.
I've just got to call him out.
You all need to listen to better comedy.
Oh, come on, Citi.
Oh, my God.
And I take like, oh, really?
George Cromwell.
Come on.
And we're not even saying this is our favorite comedy.
We're saying this is what we think the Tadpool.
Correct.
That was their favorite comedy.
Right, exactly.
Correct, which could be very different answers.
But Cidion may be pointing at the Tadpool instead of me.
And you.
I think Ciddy is having a morning.
When you point it at you point at.
at us, four of your fingers
are pointing back at yourself.
Oh, what's the thumb doing?
The thumb is pointing to two going, this guy.
The thumb is wiggling going,
Blu-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l.
That being said,
Siddin's one of my favorite brains in the tadpole.
He says stuff sometimes, it blows my mind.
I don't know why he doesn't have a show,
and for real, like, I think he's crazy.
Well, here's why.
If you want to know the reason why,
it just became evident in the chat.
Uh-oh.
Doesn't play well with others.
All right, let's say,
Oh, I don't know if that's true. He's fine. He's fun. All right, let's get in. Let's get in here. I'm kidding. Let's do, um, oh, again, they give his name. Uh, uh, oh.
He's hilarious, though. He's the funny guy. He's really funny. I'm going to be a funny guy.
No, right. I'll just, I can't think of it. So I'll just say Robin Williams because I can't think of the other one.
Uh, see, I would talk about that, but I didn't think anyone would pick him for that, but from the movies. Go ahead.
Sure. Sure. All right. Well, show me, uh, Robin Williams. Show me Robin Williams.
Yeah, number two.
Definitely my favorite growing up.
All right.
We're on a roll here.
Yes, we are.
A roll of one.
Yeah, not much of a roll, is it?
Let's go with...
We're on a Parker House.
What is it?
Parker House roll, Parker House bun?
What are those called?
Parker.
Oh, I know.
Louis Stevenson is what we should.
Right, right, right, right.
Jim Gaffigan.
Oh, that's a good one.
Sure. All right.
Show me hot pockets.
number five all right you can't have him and not brian reagan you insane people
i agree yes both amazing uh i wonder if bill burr's on here bill burr yeah he's he's having a
moment yeah he's having a moment he's doing pretty good right now yeah all right all right
show me bill burr number eight and i think that was really that was really slow i was like
Ooh, I don't know.
That might have put Scott into an unbeatable position.
But we'll keep going.
All right.
We'll try it out and see what we get.
All right.
Oh, uh, br.
B.
Chris Rock.
Maybe he's on there.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A good choice.
Show me Chris Rock.
Everybody apparently hates Chris.
No, Chris Rock was number 25 on the list.
That was a cool show when it was on.
I liked everyone hates Chris.
That was great.
Do you ever see that?
Did you ever see it?
I never saw any of it, but I heard it was really good.
Very good.
And I think Delroy Lindo is in it.
Oh, I like Delroy Lindo.
Yeah, who's also in the harder they fall.
And he was great in that.
All right, anyway.
Brian, your turn.
And Kit.
Kit, do you, go ahead.
Do you have something, Kit?
Go ahead.
I mean, Jeff Foxworthy has always been funny.
Oh, see?
I don't know.
You're thinking like the people.
No, no.
She, you're right.
But this, the tadpool, and you might be a redneck if you're in the tadpool.
I don't know.
Yeah, you might be.
Is that something?
Yeah, might be.
Sure.
I don't know.
Sure.
Yeah, why not?
All right.
Okay.
Show me Jeff Foxworthy.
Oh.
Number 79.
Nice.
It's also how old he is, I think.
Just kidding.
All right.
Well, Scott, you're.
You know, they've got three strikes.
You've got two, so, and what, there are three answers left on the board.
Um, including that ever popular number three.
Yeah.
Pretty high up on the list.
Yeah.
Damn.
Why can't anything come to me here?
I mean, I used to love Mitch Hedberg.
He died.
Let's put Mitchiburg on there.
You know, he's one of my favorite convenience.
As soon as he died, I hated him.
But before he died, I loved him.
All right.
Show me Mitch Hedberg.
He is that number three answer.
Oh.
I didn't think the tadpool would be into.
I want to apologize to the tadpool.
You misunderstood them.
I read you all wrong.
Yeah.
It's your fault.
We blame you.
All right.
How about the red leather suit?
Oh, shit.
Oh, Eddie Murphy.
Eddie Murphy.
There you go.
All right.
Show me.
Show me the red leather suit.
Eddie Murphy, number nine.
Only one name left on the board.
Nice.
Scott's killing it this week.
He's killing like I did last week.
I like me some comedy.
All right.
I feel like they all lean toward the dead here.
So who is the screaming?
Sam Kinnison.
Put him on there.
I don't think he was ever that funny,
but a lot of people like Sam Kempison.
Driving him where the food is.
All right.
Show me.
Sam Kinnison.
uh indeed dead but uh number 27 on the list actually tied for 23rd place uh let's see that last
answer one of my favorites up there for me right up there with george carlin john malaney sure yeah
i wouldn't have thought that would say john malaney but odd okay but we never got we never
got to sarah silverman or right oh or any ladies or any ladies watch i was trying to figure out
the tadpool i'm sorry yeah um let's uh let's uh let's uh let's let's let's let's let's let's let's let's
look at the rest of this list here. Rodney
Dangerfield, Eddie Isard,
Patton Oswald, Bill Hicks,
Burt Kreischer, Billy Connolly,
Bo Burnham, John Panette,
Ricky Jervais, Stephen Wright, Bill Cosby
somehow made the list. Well, of course he did.
Yeah, he has to, you have
to, the thing is,
his impact on stand-up comedy is
unreversible. He's an
a-hole and a dirtbag, but
the question is, who is your favorite
stand-up comedian Living or Dead?
And it's not, you know,
who's a great
who's a talented comedian
of any time
who's your favorite
and four people
or one person with four votes again
sure right
Jeff Dunham number 26
Steve Martin
surprisingly lower on the list
but I guess you don't think of him
as much as a stand-up comic
these days
comedic actor more
Tignitaro
is she our highest
Tignitar might be our highest female
on this list sadly
her comedy is amazing
She's really good.
Tom Segura, Chris Farley, Darrow O'Brien, Don Rickolds, James A-Caster, Ackister, Jimmy Carr, Joe Coy, Kevin Hart, Lewis Black, Allie Wong, Anthony Jezzelnick, Christopher Titus, Craig Ferguson, Dane Cook, Daniel Tosh, only two votes.
So we got 2.0 votes.
Dimitri Martin.
Somebody said Gallagher, George Burns, Eliza Schlesinger, Joe Rogan.
Come on now.
Cat Williams, Mark Maren, Margaret Cho, Russell Peters, Taylor, Tom.
The list goes on and on and on.
And not South Carolina native, Aziz.
No one said.
Aziz Ansari?
No, not even listed.
Ron Funches only got one vote, which surprised the hell out of me.
I like Ron Funches, and I thought he deserved more than one vote.
Whitney Cummings, Wanda Sykes.
Somebody said Tim Cook.
Tim Cook, the CEO.
The head of Apple, the great stand-up community.
Yeah, he is hilarious.
Yeah, he's great.
He's getting up and he's hilarious.
Every time he says products.
his role. It's great.
Sebastian,
let us Scalco only got one vote,
and I think he's funnier than one vote.
Sinbad has a new special out,
like this week or something.
Does he really?
Yeah, and it's called, where have I
been, or you thought I was dead, or something like that.
It really is.
Sinbad used to get a bad rap.
People used to hate his comedy
publicly for some reason, even though I thought
it was fine.
It's fine. Before or after that Christmas
All the Way or Jingle All the Way.
I think this is before. I think we reached
maximum amount of his exposure
and that's when people have stopped
like no more stuff bad please
by the way when are we watching that for film sack
oh yeah I thought we've already watching all the way
did we not whatever no we have not
did you say Cat Williams
Cat Williams is in the list but
yeah not worth him too low
oh nobody said um
who's a little short guy that does stuff with the rock all the time
did you say him Kevin Hart
I love that Scott boils down
everybody's personality to the worst
like weather's not bad he's
He's just a little guy.
It's fine.
Yeah, he's fine.
You know, a little hangar-owner.
He's surprisingly, surprisingly low on the list.
Kevin Hart.
Probably one of the most financially successful comedians.
Sure.
Yeah, but see, what I'm trying to get to here is I think there's a correlation here of
the bigger mainstream success you have as a comedian, the more comedy snobs put their nose up
toward you.
I really do think there's like a weird discrimination once you,
have major success been paid her. It's like, what's his name from King of Queens?
Kevin, Kevin, James. The other Kevin, Kevin James. He has, his stand-up is like legit funny,
but that dude's career. Big fat guy rides around on a segue, whatever that guy's name is.
Yeah, exactly. But that's my point. Like, you went from like really respected, like, you know,
comedian to, oh, you're too mainstream now, now we don't like you. I think that happens a lot.
It's a bummer. It's a bummer. You know, it is a bummer. Although, I don't want to meet the person
who thumbs up their nose at George Carlin.
No.
Well, see, and that's...
I don't want to know you. I feel like that dude stuck every landing he took.
He did. He took some chances and he really, he really nailed it a lot.
Now, Sam Kinnison, if you want to go...
Many of controversy, but no scandals, which was...
Right, exactly.
At least I don't remember any. I don't think there were any...
You guys should listen to some stuff about Sam Kinnison.
He is, he was just such a tortured soul trying to find his way.
His story is crazy. It was going to be a preacher.
And his dying moments told through a...
the eyes of his friend, oh my God,
is so...
It's pretty nuts, yeah.
His whole life story is crazy.
There's a documentary somewhere.
I saw it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't remember where I saw it.
All right, well, the bottom line is,
we've kept Kit here even longer
to just tell her that she...
We always have Kin around.
Yeah, she lost, but it's okay.
In your pocket.
Kit, you can always play again,
and also you're just great,
and we love having you here,
so you always can call again.
So I hope you do.
How do you feel about your loss, though?
Tell us how you feel.
It's all right.
We had fun, and I got to hang out
was three of my favorite comedians.
We're nowhere on that list.
None of us got a vote, by the way, yes.
But that's very nice of you to say.
All right, we will definitely need to stand up for the entire show.
I don't get it.
Oh, I see.
You are a true stand-up.
I am proud of every episode and still, no love.
Well, if that joke isn't enough to turn people, I don't know, what will.
Well done, everybody involved, especially Kit and Brian over here.
Brian, we got Film Sack this weekend.
How's that sound to you?
You want to do that?
I guess it sounds all right, even if we are going to be.
doing Highlander the Quickening.
Yeah, the second Highlander movie, you guys.
We're all a little nervous about it.
I'm still mad about it.
Is there only, only can be one, and there's a whole series of, whatever.
Well, they don't mean only one movie, but they also screw over there.
There can only be one winner or one, uh, eternal guy because freaking Sean Connery comes back in two.
How's that's that work?
I know.
And it's on the movie posting the first one.
I got promises.
Yeah, that's a garbage.
He's, uh, he's a force ghost is what he is.
Oh, all right.
He's off in the corner just looking blue and shimmering.
Exactly, yes.
Okay, giving advice, helping him, you know.
Use the sword.
Cut his head off, Luke.
And no one voted for us.
Yeah, I can't believe it.
Just a shock.
Dunaway is Brian Dunaway on, or he's the Brian Dunaway on Twitter.
You can also find him on his Twitch channel over there at Brian Dunnowy.
Brian, have a great week.
We'll see you this weekend.
No, you.
Bye.
I like his no you.
I think that's fun.
No, you.
No, you.
You know, I didn't tell you that.
Yes, so Tristan's girlfriend works at Meow Wolf, right?
We've talked about this, that new museum that opened up here.
Super cool.
The other day, they had a very special celebrity guest walking through the museum.
Yeah.
And that would be saliva tosser himself, Richard Kind.
Whoa.
Really?
Yes.
Yes.
Richard Kind, a voice actor from Inside Out,
brother of Paul Reiser on Matt About You, or not brother, a friend of Paul Reiser on Mad About You.
He walked the dog a lot or something.
I remember right.
Right.
He's in all sorts of stuff.
No, the dog walker was Hank Azaria.
Oh, Hank Azaria, right.
Hank Azaria, yeah.
No, he was just a friend of, yeah.
Spin City.
Anyway, but the guy who spit on you during a stand-up act, right?
Yeah, well, it was Second City, and they were doing an improv, and it was a whole group of people on stage,
and he was standing right where he was and yelled and he spit on me by accident.
And somewhere I have this high school sketchbook that they took, I was drawing all the cast members
during the same thing where he spit on me
and
the waitress lady
cocktail waitress says
hey can I take that in the back and have them look at it
and I said sure I guess so and so she takes my whole
sketchbook back into the rear
you know backstage
shoved it up her rear no
she didn't do that and then she came back out
and she had everybody in there sign it by their person
which was cool because
nobody got the wrong person which means I had
decent likenesses
Right.
That would have been a horrible.
Oh, actually, that was this comedian, and he signed next to that with Drew as a woman.
And the most famous person from that cast is Richard Kind.
Nobody else kind of went on to do anything.
That's cool.
But that era was all him.
That's awesome.
Let's do a quick news story, very quick.
Yeah, that's right.
It's time for some quick news brought to you by.
Keep your eye on the frog pants store, because.
soon the 2021 Christmas card pack will show up there with art from Scott Johnson coming
soon to frogpants.com slash store.
Yep, that'll be very soon.
Finish that all up over the weekend.
I saw those.
Those look great.
Yeah, I got a Santa writing on a.
I suppose flow ho-ho.
Oh, see, yeah, that's the one.
Yeah, that's the one I like.
All right, well, check this story out.
This is super dumb.
A man who intentionally caught the coronavirus, the COVID-19.
Delta variant. He did it on purpose.
Wishes he had not
done so.
Yeah. Idiot.
Yeah. Feels real dumb
to me. An unvaccinated
man who intentionally caught the
COVID-19 virus and was
hospitalized now says he regrets his actions.
And they post to Facebook and
Aucklander said he
I guess he's from Auckland, New Zealand.
From New Zealand, yep. That would be my guess. Yeah, New Zealand
Harold. It's just funny because New Zealand
famously kept things to him very
small minimum. I know. They were really good. So he had to go and he had to go hug a lot of people
to try and catch COVID. Yeah, to really work for it. But, uh, I mean, they have a smaller
population. But still, they did a pretty good job. Anyway, Aucklander said he tested positive for
COVID-19 and was left weak and bedridden. The man became very ill. And it's understood he
infected several family members. During the time of his infection, he was taken to a hospital and was
recently discharged. The man said he survived COVID-19 as an unvaccinated person, but did not wish his
experience on anyone.
Yeah.
Several family members who all did not intentionally catch COVID, who did not agree to be
part of his stupid plan.
There's something here.
Let's see if I can read this.
This is, what is this?
Is this him?
I think it is him.
Is that a picture of him?
No, it's just a social media post where he says, last day in the hospital, just
waiting on release, or he'd say release, because he's from New Zealand.
Anyway, it's been confirmed that so-and-so can come home to me.
God, I have never missed anyone so much.
He has been a brave little guy with bleeped out, whatever that is.
Can't wait to see him.
I survive COVID-unvaxed, but I just want to say, or want to say that I do not recommend this little experiment to anyone.
This did floor me, which I did expect, but I have also upset some people, and I put other people at risk, and I can't apologize enough for that.
the staff in Northshire Hospital
have been amazing to everyone
and to everyone
who have kept me in good spirits think
love you all.
So he's had a real change of heart
this guy.
Yes.
As you do.
Yeah, I knew it'd floor me
but I'm really apologizing
because I put other people at risk.
I knew I could handle it,
but you know,
in the end, maybe don't do this.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, that's that story.
We're going to take a break now.
When we come back, our good pal, Tom Merritt,
will join us.
We'll do a little tech time with Tom.
Yeah.
I don't know what's going on today,
but I heard something about
I guess Netflix launched their game service on iOS.
I want to see what that is.
Yeah, right.
It was on Android before and now it's coming to iOS.
Coming to an iOS device near you.
And there was another thing like that.
Now I don't remember what it is.
But we'll see what he has.
We'll let him bring it.
Yeah, let's not spill his candy in the lobby.
Let's let him do it.
Yeah, let him spill all his candy everywhere and his popcorn or whatever else
the hell thing you brought in there.
Before that, though, we got to do a song break.
So, Brian, why don't you do that?
Yes, sir.
It's time for me to play music by KVB, not to be confused with KGB, KV, different band.
These guys are an underground cold wave duo, and this is produced by Andy Savers,
who does Black Country New Road, My Bloody Valentine, The Horrors.
They've got a brand-new album coming out November 26th via Invada Records,
and it's going to be really good, Scott.
It's called Unity, the new album.
And the song that we're going to be playing is the title track.
It's spelled differently.
So the album is spelled U-N-I-T-Y, like you normally spell Unity.
This title track is spelled U-N-I-T-E with an accent mark.
It is Unity by the KVB.

There's a night,
side, side, side, side.
Okay, d'n, d'at, side,
time, side, side, side.
And I'm going to be nice, side, side, side, side, side.
And I'm not, so, side, so, tight, so, time.
This is BBC World News.
I'm Jonathan Charles, kept hidden for almost two decades and forced to bear children.
What would Jesus eat?
The morning stream, the sugar and cream in your coffee.
Aw.
All right, we're back, and once again, that song was...
That band, by the way, not Russian, I should say.
They're taking their time.
No, they're from Spain.
They're called the KVB.
Their brand new album is called Unity.
That's the title track right there.
And damn, if that doesn't take me back to the 1980s and bands like An Emotion and Human League and stuff like that.
The greatest time in our lives, the 80s.
Some would say.
It was a great decade for a lot of people.
For me in particular.
I had a great time.
It was a great time to grow up.
I was a young boy.
A young boy about town.
Learning the ways of man.
All right.
Very cool.
Let's get Tom in here and do a little tech time with Tomas Merit, as he is sometimes known as.
Here we go.
With the computer as with any tool, the concept and direction must come from the man.
Joining us, as he always does on Wednesdays, from his beautiful downtown L.A.
From his beautiful three-quarter view.
Oh, yeah, it's one of those camera days.
I like these days.
Yeah, not side cam, though.
No, it's more like a sweet, shouldery, I don't know what they call that.
I like it.
I can actually see the, get the dimensions of his room and its location in the house.
See, now you see all the stuff he just has within reach.
Whoa, TM, D-TNs Cup.
Whoa, it's like we're watching this in 3D.
This is crazy.
Well, hi, Tom.
How are you?
Oh, hi.
How's it going?
Good.
It's nice to see.
from this both angles you look great from both angles yes oh you've seen my world from both sides now yeah
I have from both sides now I love that song hey it's good to have you here I was trying to pontificate about what you might bring to the tech table today oh yeah well there's a lot of stuff going on the Netflix stuff on mobile devices the gaming service thing which I have not checked out at all and I guess that was technically yesterday but there was 20th anniversary of the iPod yeah iPod anniversary oh happy birthday iPod yeah tomorrow's that
It says thank you.
From deep in my drawer behind me.
Yeah.
Oh, let's see.
All right.
Let's see who's got the older iPod.
Oh, look at that.
I bet Brian's is older.
This is a video iPod, so it's not that old.
Yeah.
Brian, what do you got?
Let's see.
Oh, well.
Pulling up something.
Shoot.
Oh.
Not handy, eh?
Not handy.
I have a minute.
This one is, according to the engraving on the back,
Eileen's fabulous iPod.
Oh, wow.
That's very nice.
It's very fabulous.
I have a,
I have a, what were those called?
The nanos?
Yeah, I have a nano somewhere.
Like this?
Like that one?
Oh, that's a, no, that's a, that's a video nano, isn't it?
Is it a nano?
No.
Or is that a video shuffle?
Shuffle.
Maybe nano.
I think that might be the same one Tom has.
Oh, yeah, look at the black one.
Oh, Tom can't see you, but yeah.
No.
Pretending.
Here's an oldie.
Oh, that one's older.
Okay, that's the original.
Look at that raised.
it's not the original this uh the wheel doesn't spin it's a click wheel stays in place oh here's the
this is the nano right here let's see oh yeah that's the one i have actually and then here's the older
nano yeah oh you got the old gum oh my gosh wow yeah those are the days 20 years man uh that's crazy
the last one right here what you got there oh yeah 20 years on ipods right here yeah right exactly
i've got all 20 that's amazing i thought maybe it was
would be, I don't know, it's not much of a tech story, I guess, but Unity buying
Weta Studios from Peter Jackson for 1.9 billion. That's pretty big, yeah. It's a big
one. But I'm guessing you got something totally different. Then that's fine. I was going to talk
about something totally different, but I'm glad you mentioned the Netflix thing, because I want
to point out that the Netflix games strategy, nobody really knows what it is yet. A lot of
people jump to the conclusion that they want to compete with Stadia or Project X cloud, that kind
thing, which maybe they do, but I have been skeptical of that. I originally thought they're just
going to want to want to play Stranger Things games. They're going to want you to play Stranger Things
games. They're going to want you to play a squid game, game, game. But they did launch two
Stranger Things games, but there were games that they had already developed. The other three
games are, you know, things like Card Blast, like just normal mobile games. And if you haven't heard
anything about this, the way it works is you get the game from Netflix and you log in
with your Netflix ID, and you can play the game.
If you don't have a Netflix ID, you can't play the game.
It's as simple as that.
It's a kind of a freebie with your Netflix subscription.
You can play these games.
People are making a big deal out of the fact that on iOS,
because of the way the App Store rules work,
you will have a games tab show up in the Netflix app
that will just kick you out to downloading each game separately
as its own app,
and then you'll play it in a separate app
and those who think that Netflix wants to do
some kind of stadia-like streaming service
are pointing out that that'll be untenable
they won't be able to do that for long
whereas over on Android
the way Netflix is doing this
is having a tab for the list of games
and then kicking you out to the Play Store
to download each mobile app separately
which is exactly what they're doing on iOS
Well
it's not new that those
Those two worlds often don't pay attention to what each other is doing.
But yeah, it sounds like it's this exact same.
I've seen very respectable reporters doing calisthenics trying to say like,
yes, they're doing that on Android, but they won't do that forever on Android, we think.
And on iOS, they won't be allowed to change.
So in the future, if they decide to do something different in one place, they won't be able to do it.
And therefore, let's be outraged.
And I'm like, you know what?
I'll be outraged when it happens.
I know I'm old-fashioned that way,
but I'm going to wait until
it's actually a different system
on each platform.
So you'd like to not
jump to conclusions, perhaps,
and let things happen the way they are going to happen
before you form a
contrary opinion to something,
right? Is that what you're telling me? I'll even
form a conclusion based on what's
actually happened.
I won't jump to
assumptions in this case.
There's not even a
there's not even a thing to jump off of to get to a conclusion as far as I can tell but I don't know that's been very entertaining for me I'm sure uh you know other people are probably going to be right I was wrong about Netflix sticking just to to branded stuff when card blast came out so who knows yeah they seem to they seem to be well they've got ideas I'm curious how it's all going to go and I've I've kind of come around I guess in your direction about I'm not so sure that they have a big streaming play with games uh prepared at least not now I I I wouldn't put it off a
roadmap. There might be a roadmap in Netflix
somewhere where they're like, first we do this
and then we do that and then eventually we get to
that. I wouldn't deny
that at all. That's definitely how Netflix works,
right? They started
with streaming as library
stuff, but they said, you know, down the road we'd
like to do originals and now Netflix is
almost entirely originals, at least
as far as what people watch
on it, right? You know, you
hear fewer people talking about watching
library stuff on Netflix and more people talking
about their new things like SquidGame.
and you and all that sort of thing.
So, you know, down the road that they might eventually transition to that.
I don't think that's the near-term situation.
I think they just kind of want to get people interested and used to seeing games associated
with Netflix somehow.
Make sense.
Other people jump to that conclusion because they're like, they're a giant streaming giant.
That's what they do.
They stream content.
Why wouldn't they?
But it's kind of a different technological question than it is than I think people think it is.
So, yeah, I agree with you.
It's probably not off the table.
Also, my thing with Netflix was it was they don't tend to stray outside the lines.
People are saying, oh, they'll do ads supported.
And they're like, nope, we bring you video entertainment.
And so people are like, oh, they'll start doing a free channel.
Nope, we are a subscription service.
Like they have not done the things that you have seen other streaming services do,
play around with free versions with ads too much.
They do have some free versions, but they're not ad supported.
They stick very close to their vision.
They're very good at avoiding mission creep, and a video game streaming service felt like mission creep if it wasn't supporting their entertainment brands, which is why I was a little skeptical until they brought out card blast.
I'm like, well, that's definitely not a brand.
There's no card blast show that I'm aware of, so who knows?
Yeah, also them sticking to their, you know, sticking to their mission and not having mission creep like you mentioned is only a thing that the other services have had to do to try to compete or won up Netflix.
or not one up them, but to say, all right, well, we're not Netflix,
but we want to sure try for more of that market.
What do we do?
Well, what if we offered a free thing?
We've got the extended thing or whatever.
We got live sports.
Live is another thing.
Netflix is like, nope, we're not interested in live, not going to do live.
Where lots of the other streaming services are for exactly the reason you're talking about.
Yeah, if something threatens them, threatens their dominance, then, okay, well, then we'll talk because maybe then they'll have a taste for live or a taste for free or a taste for two tiers or, you know what I mean.
They may be more flexible when they're faced with competition that truly threatens their position.
But right now, they're in top spot whether you like it or not.
And I happen to like it.
I think Netflix is putting out some great shit.
So no complaints here.
Well, there you go.
It's an interesting thing.
I'm going to mess with it later because I want to see what's up.
I mean, if you're wondering, these are quick games.
These are games that you can quickly launch, quickly play.
Maybe there's a name for that part of the service that they could use.
like, you know, quick-stir.
Quick-stir.
I like it.
What a great name.
Boy, I wonder if anyone's ever used that in the past.
I wonder if they could get the rights to that name.
Yeah, I can't even imagine.
Maybe when you make friends and can you play with other people and they call that friendster,
they make a part of that.
Let's do that.
Or you could have them all in a space.
Oh, that could be my.
I'll be like your space, my space.
My, oh, my space.
Sure, that's really good.
That's not bad.
I don't know.
Or, you know, they might assemble people into these cities around the earth or geo.
Maybe you have some name.
Yeah.
Well, they have so many supernatural shows, Brian, that they might bring in some kind of, you know, supernatural name.
You know, to get people really excited.
Like get them fired up, like an angel fire.
Yeah.
Angel fire.
Yeah.
Oh, my Lord.
We're going back further in time by the second.
Well, all right.
This is a very cool.
People should check it out.
Or we can take all three of our names and make a tripod out of them.
Yeah, why not?
Yeah, they called me tripod in high school, but I'm not telling you why.
Anyway.
Wow.
Later today, 2.30 Mountain Time, there will be the daily tech news show, and I will be there
because Wednesdays are my day, damn it.
That's when I get to go on, and I really enjoy doing it.
So check out the show and make sure you hang around for whatever else is going on in tech today.
Yeah, Sarah Lane's in there preparing the document right now.
Oh, very nice.
Is this, is this her first day back since?
Oh, very nice. Very nice. Wednesdays. I think Wednesdays, see, this is why Wednesdays are cool. Lots of momentous things happening. Wednesday's kind of the best day for everything. It's a pretty good day. No offense, everyone else. Anyway, Tom, anything else going on? You want to mention or promote or otherwise?
I'm doing my nanorimeo, my national novel writing month novel, having a blast. And it's always, every year I think like, do I really need?
to do nanoramo. I mean, it kind of right all year long now. But every year I get there and I'm like,
nope, this is definitely helping, definitely pushing me along. So if you want an update or insight,
I'm going to talk about my nanorimmo experience on my newsletter. So those of you already
subscribe, look for that on Friday. Or if you're interested in getting that content, check it out,
freetomnewletter.com. Well, very nice. Tom Merritt, everybody Ace Detect on Twitter. Have a fantastic day.
Thank you. And we'll see you.
your geo city, by now.
I haven't heard the term
geo cities in a long time.
So I just downloaded the app, I was just to try to see
if I could get it to go. Yeah.
And it doesn't have the tab for me.
Were you able to make it go? It must not have rolled out to me yet.
It's updated, so.
Also, there's a, there's a tab
in here called Quick Laughs, no, Fast Laughs.
What the hell is that?
Oh, yeah, I saw that the other day.
But it's only in mobile.
Yeah, and so it's like...
Is it like a clip from the office or like it's just
random funny clips from movies and TV shows, right?
Oh, okay, it must be.
Or does it just go to pick up a random, uh, sitcom?
You know what it's like?
They lay it out like TikTok.
Oh, they totally do.
And so it is.
It's like a little segment, oh, wow, and it just flipped up from Gilmore girls to drunk
parents.
And I can flip them.
Yeah.
I'm actually kind of want to mess with that.
Yeah, that's interesting.
All right.
Okay.
Michael Chee, we forgot about him.
He's a funny guy.
He's hilarious.
I don't think he was.
even on the list.
He does some standouts where he got started.
Che, Che, not Chi, Che. Chee.
He's got good Chi, but he's a Chee.
Perfect.
All right.
What are we doing now?
Oh, yeah.
We got to do recommendals.
Right.
With Brandy.
We got old Randy deluxe joining us.
Gotta get all Randy in here.
Get all randied up and ready to rock.
Got to find the proper thing here.
Here it is.
You guys, look at the.
it is it's randy jordan joining us as his moniker randy deluxe he's the best version of himself
the deluxe version and uh he joins us on wednesdays for little recommendals how's it going
there randy aloha scott brian hi oh hi usually have to add another brian on there but
i know yeah exactly yeah scott brian tadpool i i just asked how you doing but i've been
listening so i know you know exactly how we're doing why waste time on that you know
just how poorly this is because wasting time is what we do like it's our it's our skill yeah yeah
yeah i'll tell you what that's why talking about a horrible movie takes us two hours sometimes
longer than the movie itself yeah honestly i have been i've been questioning lately why our
our film sack episodes got a lot longer over the last two years and i know i know we've all
been talking about well it's the pandemic and we're like bored or something but i think there's
something else i can't figure it out but
there's something else like as as we go it's like we're getting closer to each other you know what i mean
exactly i like i like talking to you guys about movies even if it's not the one that we just watched
yeah no you're right the some of our best stuff lately has been like a weird not just a normal
tangent but like a meaningful drift into other contexts and it's great uh i love it so maybe what's
happening the pandemic has made us all uh it's done that it's done one of the two extremes it's made us
really far apart for some people and much closer for others yeah yeah like i've had a really hard time
the last couple of years talking to my brother yeah like he and i he and i text each other that's how
we communicate mostly and i just like more and more time goes by between yeah between our uh left
on red periods our sessions where one of us leaves the other one red right like it's it's it's
it's really strange but then there are people like you that i feel like i talk to every day and and
like we didn't used to so much
a couple years ago. Yeah, it's weird.
We live in a weird time, everybody.
So get down on it.
I don't know why I said that.
Hey, you know what's time? Time it is. It's time for
recommendals. Now, the way we do this is we usually give Brian
the beginning spot and we are doing that.
He's got two today. Brian, I'm going to play these clips,
but you just got to set these up for me.
Sure. Both of my clips today
are movies, no series today. I mean, you know, last week
was money heist, which is an ongoing, still ongoing series, just broke my heart a couple
days ago.
Got to say that.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, you know, you know who I'm talking about.
It's a person with a city name.
Anyway, this is one of the things that I kind of took advantage of Tina being out of town
to watch.
Okay.
Nice.
What is that?
Okay.
All right.
Because she doesn't like movies like this.
But took advantage of Tina.
That's a phrase.
No, I took advantage of, of.
of then in parentheses,
Tina being out of town.
It's a mathematical formula.
Do the, what's in parentheses first.
That makes perfect sense to me.
All right, here it is.
Let's check it out.
I'm not going to hurt you.
Don't worry.
You're not going to believe me.
And I need you to remember what I'm saying.
Hey?
This thing
it's going to follow you
somebody gave it to me
and I passed it to you
back in the car
it could look like someone you know
or it could be a stranger in a crowd
whatever helps
they get close to you
it can look like anyone
but there's only one of it
Sometimes, I think it looks like people you love, no idea.
Wow, no idea.
Okay, I just want to make a guess.
Is this like a movie from like seven or eight years ago called It Follows?
That's exactly what is.
It's actually, it's more about, um, the,
tech support industry. It's called IT follows. And it's about somebody who really needs help with their
Microsoft Word and, uh, no, finally. Someone's getting a voice for that. Finally. Gosh, damn. It is. It's 2014's
It Follows. This is a horror film, um, that is, is impressively low budget. Like, you know,
it's really good for being, for looking like it's low budget, whether or not it is low budget.
this won some uh i think it won an award at the con film festival for being innovative and uh and it really
is it's um it's an interesting premise basically uh just like the guy described um this this thing
will follow you and constantly be walking towards you like uh like that old daleks game
used to play on our apple uh two e's and um and it'll it'll it'll
look like either somebody you love
or a stranger, but it'll be very apparent
after a while that it is walking directly
towards you.
And it gets passed from
person to person like the worst STD
through sex,
which as we know from our horror movie
watching is
grounds for murder.
If you have sex
as a teenager, you deserve whatever
happens to you in a horror film. That's that it works.
Directed by David Robert Mitchell.
I don't know what else he's done.
It's got three names.
This is his biggest thing.
Yeah, three name directors are always ones to pay attention to.
They got the three names.
I like that.
And there is talk of a sequel, but it's the third act, the kind of the, and it's not a spoiler to say that they can have a showdown with the creature is some of the coolest special effects and premise by these kids that I've ever seen.
and it's really, really clever.
All right, it's called It Follows.
It's on Netflix, and you can watch it today.
I'm going to watch it.
And you liked it enough to recommend it.
I liked enough to recommend it, yes.
Sweet.
Which is generally what we do.
And Tina would have hated it.
I can usually...
It would watch a high movie.
It sounds like Kim would hate it, too.
So I'm glad you said that.
All right, excellent.
Here's number two.
Also a film, I take it?
Number two, also a film.
And something a little bit newer.
Here it is.
But why mean, I am no criminal.
Because the next job we intend to take on.
Shit.
You are the only one.
I knew I'd steal Randy's.
Nobody knows more than you do about Hans Wagner.
And now that I know you've got the skills to match,
I think you're the man for the job.
Please stop saying, girl.
I'm nervous.
No, it's okay if you do it, but saying it's incredibly stupid.
What is the mark?
A reasonable question
It couldn't possibly be
It is
The ring cycle
The fucking ring cycle
No
Yes
It's the ring cycle
Holy shit
Yes
Which one?
The Rangot? The Vakry?
Yes
Both?
Shh
Yes
And the secret
The outbreak in America
You're familiar?
Yes, I have something about it
No idea.
Okay, so you could go ahead and play my clip now and jump to me.
Do you have two or just one?
No, just the one.
And I'll let you have this one.
I'll let you have.
I actually lingered on the section that you clipped and decided to go for the more introductory section.
Oh.
Yeah, the ones before that.
Let's see what happens.
Let's see what happens.
I'll play it and see if I can figure this out any more than I have.
Yeah.
For this video today, I will be switching into English for my initial.
international friends and fans.
The story I will be telling you today
is one of my absolute favorites.
And I hope you too will get great enjoyment out of it,
like I do.
Once upon a time, in a faraway land called Munich,
far away, that is, if you are one of my international friends,
there was an old brick building on the edge of the city.
The building was the factory of a respectable locksmith named Hans Wagner.
He was once a hard-working family man, a pillar of the community, until his wife and son died tragically.
In his waning years, his greatest work truly began, a series of four safes, one for each opera of Richard Wagner's legendary ring cycle, comprised of four epic operas.
with roots in Norse mythology.
The four saves being
the Rheingold,
the Valkyreur or the Valkyrie,
the Siegfried,
and finally,
the Götterdermer,
also known as the twilight of the gods.
All right, so this is that,
unlock the shit from the dead
or whatever, it's the spin-off.
Yes, that's exactly it.
It's the prequel to Army of the Dead or Army of the, or what was the Army of the Dead?
Army of the Dead.
Army of the Dead was our Zach Snyder, Dave Bautista film.
And then this is the prequel called Army of Thieves, which has the curly-handed German guy, Dieter, who's name in this movie is Sebastian.
It's explained why.
Yeah.
So Randy, how is it?
Is it like?
It's incredible.
Like seriously, like I actually think I.
I like it more than Army of the Dead.
Well, I hope so, because I think Army of the Dead is not that great.
I think it's okay.
All right.
It runs contemporaneously with the first scene of Army of the Dead.
So, you know how Army of the Dead starts with our sort of inception on how the zombie came to be, right?
Yeah.
This movie sort of follows that.
Like in the first scenes, you see on the TVs behind our main characters that there's a zombie
outbreak in the U.S., and it's something that they are concerned about, but not too, too much.
And it's very, very, veryly, you know, just connected to this plot by some, some strings, the zombie
outbreak in the U.S., but not the focus, you know, it happens to be related to what they're
doing in this movie.
It's like a full-on-heist movie, right?
Like, the whole thing is heist-eat-movie.
Yeah, whereas Army of the Dead was a heist movie inside a zombie movie, this.
is flat out heist
only and multiple
heists and the cinematography
is just great like it's just
it's it takes place
kind of all over Europe
and it's got a real
like James Bond-esque quality
to it in cinematography
and the freaking score
Scott you're going to love
the sound the Hans Zimmer soundtrack
oh Hans Zimmer back at it
okay it's yeah it's just
a solid movie from beginning
to end and the thing about it is it gets better
like with Army of the Dead
I think like one of the things we didn't like
about it was that it kind of
peaks early and then it doesn't have
much to do yeah like it doesn't
get better and better it doesn't build on itself
right whereas this film
like this film builds up
to an end that is
just oh it's heartbreaking
and beautiful and
yeah all right I hear
the one thing I did hear about is it's got a lot of
CSI style
blocking mechanism video
of like
which here's the little thing
that whole three dimensional view
inside the safe
and you see a lot of that in this
is fantastic it's so gorgeous
yeah I want to see it
makes me want to 3D print a bunch of stuff is what it does
nice make your own locks
why not and they let and they let
Mattia Schweigoffer direct
the film so he's he's directing
himself oh this is him the actors
directing it I didn't know that
yeah not directed by his acting
Snyder but uh well i knew that but i didn't know the actor guy was a director that's cool
yeah yeah and and he does a really good job like i mean you you would hope right that an actor
could figure out how to direct themselves but like i say the cinematography's really good
his real-life wife is in the movie she's one of the the extras in the crew she's not the main
uh really yeah yeah and she carina yes yes oh he's a lucky man
yeah and it's just like it's just the thing is it's fun and it never
it never stops it's not a movie that like uh you know that like tells your story and then it gets into
itself there's no navel gazing in this movie like it just it's just another heist after another
heist and the character is so well considered like that's the main thing is it took everyone's
character from the first movie right and built a movie around him and didn't go overboard it's
it was the character is worthy of this interesting well i'm uh i was already going to see it but
i hadn't put any priority on it but it sounds like my jam
I think I'm definitely going to see it now.
Sounds good.
Kim probably enjoy this as well.
Yeah, excellent.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Because, I mean, does the zombie threat in America ever come to any sort of fruition?
Or is it sort of just...
Well, remember, this is a prequel, right?
Right.
So you're only going to...
You're only going to find out, like I say, what happened in the first couple of scenes of Army of the Dead.
Okay.
Right?
Like, those...
That's what this overlaps with.
Got it.
But it is definitely...
It definitely has an impact on the end of the movies.
Isn't there a third film?
being worked on that's also somehow connected.
Like he had ideas for branching this out to be a whole series of things.
I don't know what that is.
Maybe that doesn't exist and I made it up.
But I thought there was some third prequel coming out.
There's a TV, like an anime animated thing coming out, Army of the Dead, Lost Vegas.
That might be one.
And then Planet of the Dead is in development as well.
So, yeah, there is a whole army of the Deadiverse or something like that.
I don't know.
What do you need to work on what that's going to be called?
We got plenty of time to do it, though.
Yeah, we got time.
And you would think if Planet of the Dead was a straight-up sequel, we'd already know who the cast is.
Admittedly, Army of the Dead kind of killed a lot of the cast.
But, like, you would think, and the only thing we've heard about that is that an actor named Omari Hardwick is in it.
And that's a complete newcomer for that as a series.
It seemed like there were a lot of newcomers in this.
I was looking.
Obviously, the main actress that you heard in that clip or in my clip, you'd recognize her as from Game of Thrones.
She was...
Misande.
Yes.
Oh.
And she's great.
The one who was with the eunuch, or not eunuch, the guy who, not the eunuch, the head soldier.
They all had their wieners.
He was a unic.
He was a eunuch.
He was a eunuch.
He was a eunuch, but he wasn't the eunuch.
I consider Barris to be the eunuch.
Yeah, he is Lord Eunich, for sure.
He's kind of a eunuch.
Yeah, that's, that's Natalie Emmanuel, and she was also in, like, Maze Runner movies, and she was in, she was in, yeah, the seventh Fast and the Furious movie.
Yeah, she's cool.
She's very cool.
She can do no wrong.
Like, seriously, you're just going to stare at her throughout this entire movie's got.
She just, she completely takes up the entire screen.
She's unworldly beautiful, that lady.
All right, while I'm in, I'm going to watch Army of Thieves.
Available now on Netflix as an original.
Part of the Zach Snyder Megaverse or whatever, they're calling it.
Yes.
All right.
Very nice.
Well, here's mine.
No one stole this because it's old and I knew nobody would.
So here it is.
See if you can figure it out.
You climbed up on the stove, right?
You could have hurt yourself or set the place on fire again.
Do you remember that?
You did that.
Climmed up on the stove, big deal.
Look, I am saying you're not going to go wrong.
Listen to me.
Look at your hands.
Look at your neck.
You're a menace to yourself.
Do you know that?
Go back to Richmond.
I know you miss your lady friend anyway.
You go.
That's fine.
I'm fine here.
Any ideas?
First Wives Club.
Scott watched the First Wives Club and enjoyed it greatly.
Finally.
I finally got around to it.
No, that woman sounds so familiar.
The second one who was talking.
Who is that?
That's Anne Ramsey, you know, for a ton of things.
Yes.
She plays a character named Sarah Logan.
here. There's a hint in the net last name.
Oh, is that a, not a Bill and Ted movie?
Nope. Logan.
It's the movie Logan starring Hugh Jackman as
definitely not a comedy.
And his wife, Sarah.
All right, so I'll let loose here.
It was on, so Jill Larson is the older lady you're hearing.
She's been an amazing actress worked for 50 years or something.
She's older and awesome.
She's really great.
Anyway, the movie is called The Taking of Deborah Logan.
It's a movie on Shutter.
uh was originally in theaters though back in 2014 now i'd never heard of it i like a good found
footage slash fake documentary horror movie i'm a fan i like it um sad thing is there's not lots of
good good ones um and you know blair witch sort of blew that all up and then others have tried but
failed in certain ways or whatever but the taking of debor legan is this idea that there are these
documentary filmmakers that are going to this lady's house played uh the lady's name is debor
Logan, her daughter, Sarah Logan is there helping her, played by N. Ramsey.
And you know her from like, she was on Seinfeld and like mad about you and like a million
comedies and TV shows and everything. She'd been in a million things. Anyway,
Jill Larson's character is in the early stages of just diagnosed Alzheimer's, or at least
that's what everyone thinks. So this documentary filmmaker and her crew are going into their
house to spend time with her to see how this early stuff goes, to kind of watch. To kind of watch
of the decline and make a movie about
about Alzheimer's.
That's the whole thing.
And the movie makes you think, well, maybe that's all this is.
Obviously, it isn't.
If you've seen the movie poster, you're not thinking that going in.
No, she goes from, you know, what we think are these simple symptoms to some really gnarly stuff.
And in the end, it turns out she's straight up possessed by some sort of horrible demon.
And it turns out it's all involves like this ritual and some other stuff.
but anyway, it's one of those horror movies
and it's really good at
she's standing in the corner looking real weird
and the camera lingers there just a little too long
and you're like, why are we looking at her still?
Oh my gosh, get the camera.
Like those kinds of like really uncomfortable,
scary moments,
which is why I like these movies.
You know, think Blair Witch,
at the very end, dude staring in the corner
and then the camera guy taken out
and then the camera's laying there while the guy's staring at the corner.
like it's just something really really unsettling about all of that and this is full of that sort of stuff
there's one scene in particular which i'm not going to describe in too much detail but let's just say
she begins the process of eating somebody else and it's gnarly it's really gnarly like not
super gory or anything the movie's not really relying on that but it has some real moments of
disconcerting visuals that really throw me through me um anyway it's out now on shutter
It's on Amazon Prime.
I'm going to list Amazon Prime for you.
Oh, it is.
I thought you could only do it on Prime if you had a shutter.
I am looking at it on Amazon Prime, and I do not have any sort of...
There you go.
So most of you have Prime.
You can watch it with no problem.
So I watched it after Halloween, which is a little bit weird.
It's kind of a, you know, it's probably better suit for Halloween.
But it's just a good horror movie.
And I thought it was really, really good.
I think the acting's amazing.
In particular, Jill Larson, is really good in this.
and the documentary filmmaker people
like this Michelle Aang
I hated her in this
and she's...
Oh my gosh, that's perfect.
One of those type of characters.
Yeah, it's one of those that's like,
quick, get the camera on.
We need this footage.
Yeah, dude.
There's a bigger problem here
than your damn movie.
Like that kind of thing.
She's very good at conveying all of that.
There's some really,
it's just a gnarly weird thing.
And if you look at that poster...
Yeah, that poster's damn disturbing.
There's nobody looking at that and saying,
I wonder if this is a documentary
And there's another poster.
If you look at it in Amazon, there's this other poster that's even worse.
Oh, God, really?
Is it her eating, whatever she's eating?
Wow, I can't believe the body part she started with.
Yeah, no kidding.
Now, I could have just as easily today done recommendals for Finch and for the harder they fall.
The harder they fall.
Yeah, that's what I was expecting, honestly.
Right, yeah, I don't understand why I didn't get the harder they fall from you.
The problem is, I'm stacked up.
I have like, I've backup.
And I usually don't have backup.
I have usually one thing a week if I'm lucky.
But right now I've got like four things backed up and those were some of them.
But I do want to at least say, the harder they fall was the coolest effing thing I've seen in a long time.
So people should watch the harder they fall on Netflix.
It's a Western with Idris Elba, John Major's lady.
I can't think of her name.
Regina King.
That's who I meant.
Oh, that one too.
Yeah, she's great.
Delroy Lindo and a really cool.
role. It's awesome. And it's written and directed by Seale's Little Brother. And so, so there's
this musical aspect to it. I didn't love it as much as you did, Scott. I don't like to argue
people out of liking something. So that's not what I'm, what I'm saying. I just, it is not for
everybody. It's a very graphic violent movie. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Like, it is as, as graphic
violent as you can get in a movie.
And there's like musical aspects of it that I think won't be loved by a lot of viewers.
It's like it's subversive in lots of ways.
It's really like a Tarantino film got mixed up with Moulon Rouge.
Yeah.
It's weird.
Really?
It's got rap and reggae and then just weird choices.
Thrown into a Western.
Yeah.
I died.
Everything you're talking about are the things I liked about it.
I like when they switch crap up like that and, you know, make you.
I don't know, you make you feel different than your traditional Western, but I really, I really
like that. Yes, it is very violent though. So just know that everybody. Well, and I, you know,
Scott and I have talked about this many, many times. As a lover of Westerns, you end up liking this
one particular thing that the good ones all do, which is they build up to a showdown, like all
Westerns. Like they've got a showdown at the end. You know it's going to come. You're spending most
of the movie finding out who you like and who you want to see killed and who you don't and so on.
And then the, you know, the end of it, the climax of the movie is you seeing what you hoped for
or not happens often.
That's like entertaining, right?
Yeah, yeah, sure.
And in this case, the movie actually made me forget that there was a showdown coming at the end.
Like, that's how clever and interesting it is to watch, you know, that I totally forgot about
the whole okay corral aspect right and i was just like mesmerized by how these uh actors and
characters look and how they talk and so on yeah it was great i i would i would recommend it
to almost everybody except for those who are maybe a little squeamish about a lot of gunfighting
and shooting and stuff because there are moments oh boy yeah all right uh well there you have it

but whatever it takes. I like seeing her in that role. Yeah, they call her Nicole Corporal
Punishment Spagnolo there. And the corporal punishment. The corporal. Yeah. There you go.

Do you want to play a song?
I bet you do.
Yes, I do.
I do.
And this is a song related to a new movie that I'm interested in sing.
Dan Andrews wrote in and said,
Salutation Scott and Brian.
I went to see last night in Soho this weekend, and being a fan of oldies, I really enjoyed the soundtrack slash score to the movie.
I did learn that a couple of songs that only known from the 80s are actually covers, specifically, always something there to remind me and got my mind set on you.
And if you just realize that's a cover, you don't listen to me very often because just about every time Scott brings that song up, I talk about the fact that George Harrison covered James Ray, who's on the soundtrack.
So, if it's not too much trouble, I'd love to hear a cover of either of those songs from the soundtrack, or from or by, my favorite artist on the soundtrack, Dusty Springfield.
Oh, she's great.
Plenty of options for you to choose from.
So anything that strikes your fans will be fine with me, sign Dan Andrews.
Nice.
Cool.
Yeah, that's what I'm looking forward to sing.
Edgar writes last night in Soho with a woman looks in the mirror and finds that her eyes have moved to the side of her head.
And is the story is what I gather from the preview.
Is that not it? Is that not the plot?
She just, she looks in the mirror and she realizes the Vevich is in the mirror.
She doesn't know what to do, but she does get really good at chess all of a sudden.
It's a strange thing.
And she's, and she's, uh, turns into the daughter of, or the little sister of Colossus.
Yeah, yeah.
And young Furiosa, which is weird.
I don't know how it's all going to work out.
Very strange.
It's so strange.
Uh, all right.
This is a cover of the song that was originally written by Britt Bachrock and, and Hal David.
The version you hear in Last Night in Soho is by Sandy Shaw.
She's not the original.
Ray Johnston actually did it originally from Bachrock and David's writing.
But this is a cover done that's a lot more like the naked eyes version of the song.
It's always something there to remind me.
It's by the hippos, and it's from Heads Are Gonna Roll.
I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me
And every step I take reminds me of just how you used to be
Oh how can I forget you girl
When there is always something that you remind me
Always something there to find me
Shadows fall I passed the small cafe where we would dance at night
And I can't help recalling how it felt to kiss
And hold you tight
How can I forget you girl
When there is always something there to remind me
Always nothing left you remind me
I was born to love him
And I will never be free
You'll always be a part of me
Whoa, whoa
If you should find you miss the sweet and tender love we used to share
Just go back to the places where we used to go and I'll be there
Oh how can I forget you girl
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something that you find me
I was born to love him
And I will never be free
You'll always be a part of me
When there is always something there to remind me
always something that you remind me
Always something that to remind me
Always something that you provide me
always something that to remind me
me always something there to remind me
Always something that to remind me
Always something that you remind me
