Coming up on TMS, that's Egghead Bastardville to you, ma'am. With great hair comes great responsibility. They come out of her water slide. Drugs are a powerful drug. Like a knee in the groin from your eye doctor. What about Bob Facebook? No country for old Bryans. I can't believe it's not lightsaber.

Random poppy seed Elaine. The bagel rule of 1824. Everything bagels with tendrils. Sufficient Bryans lacking Chad's. Vita Mehta Metamates with Tom. Analog Mugs with Randy and more on this episode of The Morning Stream. Well, they come as if from outer space in a variety of weird guises, Defender, Pac-Man, asteroids. To fans, they represent a challenge.

Look, Mommy, that lady has standoff. This is the morning stream. Game over, man. And game over. Hello, everybody. Welcome back to TMS, where my soundboard got effed, and I don't know why. I'm Scott Johnson. That's Brian. Hi, Brian. Hello. Hi, Scott. How are you? I'm all right. It's Wednesday, February 16th, 2022. We hope you're all well as well. We're here to do the hump day show. And we hope your Wednesday is full of, I don't know, whatever you do, whatever you're doing. Whatever you got. It's fine.

And we're not going to complain. Look, you could have, you could, I don't know, what do you, what do you do on a Wednesday? You go to work, you get the job done, you go to the break room, you have an Eclare or a Danish, probably a Danish of some sort. Danish, donut maybe. Maybe they do bagels where you work. I don't know. Maybe, yeah, it's Wednesday bagel day. And everybody goes in there and damn it, Elaine took the last poppy seed one. But don't worry, she's going to get hers when it comes time to do the drug testing. It looks like she's, been doing opium. And that's when she's going to get fired. She's going to get really angry.

And she's going to put anthrax in the water. There you go. We watched that episode two days ago. So, very good. What? What was that? What was that an episode of? It was an episode of Seinfeld.

Elaine got the poppy seed muffin and tried to apply for the job. And she got tested positive for her own. Oh, seriously. That's hilarious because I was just coming up with a random name and a random type of bagel. But that's exactly right. Yes, it was Elaine Benison and Poppy Happy seed bagels, and there is some sort of subconscious Seinfeldism that is working in my head. There had to have been, because you literally said her name and you mentioned the poppy seeds.

She couldn't get that job because she, because every time she peed or whatever, it was like, you're doing drugs and she wasn't doing it. I swear to God, never entered my head of making it about Seinfeld, but it was, there were just too many, too many tendrils. Yeah, you had all the tendrils today. Tendril. All the tendrils loosely connecting my thing with that thing. Cornered the market on tendrils. Hey, guys, so here's the deal. I got, I had that eye appointment yesterday.

Yeah, how'd they go? It's fine. They find them both? They see the, they were still there? They're both there. They both see out of them, you know, I can perceive images and light. So it's good. That's good.

They, of course, you know, put in the drops and made me so I was blind for a couple hours, but it's fine. The doctor, his name is, he's an interesting dude. His name is Lyndon Tyler, which sounds like a backwards name, right? It sounds like a president, like an alternative universe president. President Lyndon Tyler, once again, vetoing the new puppy seed bagel rule. The bagel rule, the bagel rule of 1824, never forget it. What movie did that come from? Was that like the American president or something?

No, I think you just used some of what you said it earlier, as long as well. all. I think that's all it was. Good. That I did. I think that was just a throwback. To me, not a call back to anything else. Well, Lyndon B. Tyler, President, no, his name is Lyndon Tyler, and he looks like a Tyler, and it looks like

his last name should be Lyndon, and it bugs me that his name is flipped like that. But whatever, he's a super nice guy. I really like this dude. No knee in the groin. Sometimes I get that from an eye doctor. Oh, sure. I'm a tall guy. You used to get that great flips.

Yeah. And then I stopped paying extra for it. They want that extra eight bucks or whatever it is. They do, exactly. I'll take, you know, make me look like Andrew Garfield with a haircut and then put a knee in the ground, please. Thank you. By the way, it feels like Andrew Garfield always needs a haircut. Is it just me?

It does, isn't he? Yeah. Needs a haircut all the time. Never not needing one. I envy his hair. Are you kidding me? Oh, he's great, great hair. It's just always, it always looks like it's on the curb of like, all right, dude, maybe check in with your stylist or whoever and get that trimmed.

Toast jelly of his hair. His hair is both amazing, spectacular, and friendly neighborhood. Yeah, friendly neighborhood hair. He's like, could you come up with another superior? Superior, there you go. And unlike other Spider-Man, his hair is organically produced. There's no machine up there. Right, it's right now.

Hair shooters. And ladies and gentlemen, that's all the Spider-Man reference you're going to get today. Anyway. No, probably not. So the other reason I wanted to mention this trip, everything went fine. and it was all good. And I got a new prescription. It's slightly different than what it was two years ago.

They told me some great stories about how if people don't want to wear masks of the eye doctor, they just freaking kick them out. They don't care. Oh, really? Oh, yeah. They don't give us shit. They're just like, no, see you. Bye.

Wow. Go do your eyes somewhere else. Anyway, Cindy works there. She's a listener and she's awesome. And I just wanted to say, hey, Cindy, thanks for always a good time hanging out with you and seeing you there. So, yeah, she's awesome. Hi, Cindy.

Yeah, Cindy's great. Okay, what else? Oh, big shout out today. Okay, I wanted to make this a big deal for somebody. Let me get some stuff ready here. This is a shout out for Chad Bergen. Okay. From his girlfriend, Wendy, who spells her name like my sister does with an eye.

Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. And let's see, how do we, I want to have big celebration noise for this. Send and receive email. Nope, that's not it. But that's how she got with me. She sent and received an email and let me know that I think it's his birthday. It doesn't matter anyway.

Because the main thing is, hey, how about a shout out for my boyfriend? And I'm a big sucker for stuff like this. So it doesn't mean... Too lazy to come up with a cover song request, huh? Okay. All right, whatever. Chad's awesome, though. So, Chad, I know you listen to the show every day.

And your girlfriend seems awesome. And I just wanted to give you a big shout out and hope you're having a blast. Okay. All right. That's for Chad. Good for you. Yeah. I don't know enough chads.

I don't like three chads. No, that's true. Yeah. Also, I was thinking this this morning, because your name came up. Okay. And it occurs to me... You were thinking, oh, I sure do know enough Bryans. I do know enough Bryans.

I do know enough chads, but I definitely know enough. I know a lot of Bryans, but the funny thing is, I only know Bryans of a certain age and younger. I don't think there are old Bryans yet. There are no 70 to 80-year-old Bryans, are there? I feel like you're... You're the... There have to be. What about Brian Brown or Brian?

Who's Brian? Denny He or... Oh, yeah. He died, though. Let's see. Yeah. Well, I mean, I don't know when he died. He died two years ago.

Yeah, he was 81 when he died. So he was at the time, an 80-year-old Brian. So an older Brian. If he just feels like I don't... I just don't see a lot of older Bryans. I know there's Brian Cox. He's older. I really love the movie FX because it stars a Brian Brown.

and of Brian Denahey. Oh, and Brian Brown, is he the Australian guy? He's the Australian guy. He's 74. He's old. Oh, okay. You know what? I take it back.

Brian Wilson? Brian Wilson's old. 79. He's a 70-year-old Brian, about to become an 80-year-old Brian in about three months. Well, at one point, we're going to have a bunch of old. Would that be nice? Tristan's and old, you know, these names that you feel like you've never seen an old person with one of those names. Right, right.

We're heading there. An old Zane. Yeah. an old zane can you imagine an old zane a guy is 80s like 85 year old zane willing ham up the road there right that's a weird idea anyway well i don't know why i got stuck on that this morning but i was just like yeah i don't do i know any older bryans but you're right there's some famous i'm glad to provide you with some some old bryans i see i see a few of them at the annual conventions although you know last couple years we haven't been able to go

because of uh covid but sure yeah you don't want all the rinds in one place i hate when they put it the same weekend as the bald conventions because then I can't decide which one I'm going to go to. Like CES and the porn convention back in the day. Exactly. It's like, as a matter of fact, sometimes those are the Bald of Brian conventions. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference.

Sometimes it's like just a collection of big bold brands. They're all over there. Hey, Brian, why are you yelling at barbecue people? What's going on? What happened there? Well, all right. So yesterday went out to, to MicroCenter.

Love MicroCenter. It's like Disneyland for tech heads. But it wasn't for me. It was for Tristan because he needed to upgrade some components in his PC. He's like, I don't know what I'm doing. Will you go with me so that, you know, you can help me talk the lingo and get what I need? I'm like, yeah, no problem. So we actually even took the PC with us so that we could make sure we got stuff that was going to be compatible with the power supply.

Because we knew there would be some reason that things, you know, we'd need to say, oh, I don't know what it is. I have to come back and get it to go again with a better list of what I need. But anyway, so we drove down there. It was getting close to dinner time. And I said, well, on the way back, why don't we swing by and get some takeout from KT's barbecue, which is a favorite barbecue place of mine here in Colorado. So freaking good. If you live in Colorado, if you live in the, the dentist. or Boulder area, KT's barbecue is the gem for a state that's not known for a lot of great

barbecue. Yeah. Colorado is a transplant. We're not Texas. We're, you know, we're Colorado. Are they a transplant from one of these places? That's often what happens. They are actually Kirk and Trisha came from Texas.

Oh, the KT is Kirk and Trisha. I like it. The KT is Kirk and Trisha. They are the nicest people, too. Yeah. Really, really super. Is that? So, Kevin in the chat, KT Data, is your, is that really?

Kirk and Trisha Data. Is that where your name came from? Maybe it is. Kirk and Trisha data. Yeah, exactly. So called Tina up, said, hey, we're going to bring home some barbecue. I'm going to stop at KT. She's like, great, cool.

So we, on the way back from Microsan, there's a really good location. It's in this little strip mall area or like a little standalone thing with a Chipotle, a Starbucks, a Popeye's chicken, probably a T-Mobile store, and then this KT's barbecue. Sounds good. Pull up. Tristan and his girlfriend. friend are like, ooh, we're going to go over to Starbucks because we want to get some drinks while you get the barbecue. Great.

No problem. As I'm getting out of the car, I see a woman standing in front of the KT's barbecue door, glass door, and she is turning and she's making eye contact with me, you know, signifying that she is going to talk to me. Yeah. And she's carrying a big bag of Popeye's chicken, and she looks at me and she says, now I'm not asking for money and I'm thinking oh my god all right I'm looking for a hand job can you do this but but I just want some money to buy a rice bowl uh-huh you got and now I'm of all the

people I know aside from Kim let's let's you know Kim's way up here but of all the people I know I'm I'm one of those that's likely if I have some change in my pocket if I have a couple a couple bucks. I'll give them to them. Right now, my wallet is empty. I've been, like, since, since COVID, I haven't needed to carry any cash, so I don't carry any cash. Everything's cards for me, and everything's, like, tapping my watch on the little, the little icon of the thing and that sort of thing. I never do cash anymore. So, so I start to reply, and I go, she's like, all right, I just want enough to buy a rice bowl. I go, I'm, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I don't, and that's as far as I get the words out of my mouth. Yeah. And she goes, and I'm backing up from the microphone, because this was yelled at me. All right.

Let's hear it. Ah, I just say no. Like, to the point where Tristan and Kay were walking, and they were jolted, like, jolted alert. I'm like, okay, it's a no. Yeah. It's like, all right, no, no then. Go away, no. Why didn't you lead with that?

Why didn't you just say, I'm going to ask you a question. I don't want any money, which she did. It's like she already contradicted herself. Sure. But I'm going to ask you a question. I would just like a single word answer, please, yes or no. Yeah. She's really got to work on her technique.

Yeah, I agree. So she goes off and I'm like, oh, my God. I go into the barbecue store and my phone then starts buzzing because both Tristan and his girlfriend Kay are texting me saying, dude, are you all right? Tristan's like, I bet that's going on TMS tomorrow. Yeah. Then Kay says, by the way, as soon as you went into the KT

and she called you an egghead bastard. An egghead bastard! An egghead bastard! Awesome. You win, dude. You freaking win. Thank you. Yeah.

She then proceeds to go into Starbucks with her Popeye's chicken bags. She had two big bags of Popeye's chicken. Yeah. So I don't know what or whatever Popeye's gave her. She goes into the Starbucks, into the display cases where they have like the $9 ethos water and the

$8 egg salad sandwiches that have been there since yesterday and all that stuff. Gross. Grabs a bunch of those, puts them in her Popeye's bag and walks out. Oh. And Kay is at the counter. She says, by the way, that lady just came in and put a bunch of stuff in her bag and just walked out

and they said, yeah, we know. It's company policy. We can't do anything. Oh, wow. Okay. Well. At a safety for the employees, they can't do anything. So she may not have got her rice bowl, but she got some ethos water and egg salad sandwich and apparently a bunch of Popeyes. Yeah. And keep in mind, drugs are a very powerful drug, okay? Yes, exactly.

That's probably what we're witnessing there. And that's too bad, but also, woof, woof. But the EB, you're the EB. No, wait, the B, the B, the E B, the Egghead Bastard. Yeah, that's it. Egghead Bastard. That's, that's egghead Bastardville to you, ma'am. Are you going to start, like, rest of it?

You can start rapping under that name or something, like the egghead bastard? Yo, I'm egghead bastard and I'm here to say. I ain't got any cash to give you today. That's really good, really, really good. Thank you. Just kidding. All right. It's your birthday.

Go crazy. It's your Popeyes. I'm hanging upside down. Anyway, well, that's cool. And I'm giving up because it's Popeyes. I haven't been yelled at in a while. I kind of miss a public yelling. Not really, but I kind of do.

I kind of miss it because I used to get a lot of weird people on my walks and stuff. And I don't know. Seems like that's died out some. The weirdos have gone underground. I don't know what's happening. Anyway, egghead bastards. You know, if she would have been nicer, I might have actually been implied to when I was in the barbecue place to say, hey, can you also all buy one extra pork sandwich or barbecue sandwich, just wrap it up, foil it up,

and I'll give it to the lady outside. but listen she's she's really she's got to attend one of these tony robin's uh seminars and work on her technique because uh yeah doesn't work anymore yeah here's my here's my thinking um it's possible like she's probably on uppers of some sort and when you're on some like hardcore meth or something i think time seems like it slows down for everyone but you so i think you probably came off as like i'm sorry You know what I mean? So she's like,

no, no, no, no. I know Claire, she may have mental health issues. We don't freaking know. Definitely has mental health issues. Maybe. We don't know. Drugs can appear that way. She was yelling at cars in the Starbucks drive-thru.

Yeah. But drugs can do that, is what I'm saying. It doesn't have to necessarily be like, oh. It doesn't have to be drugs, but it could be a combination of the two. It could be drugs and mental health issues. It could be anything. Yeah. Which is my entire point, Claire, that we have no idea.

We don't know. She should barter. What she should do is say, all right, Chipotle, I've got ethos water and some chicken thighs trade those for a rice bowl. Yeah. But what she heard was, and she got impatient. And she's like, I've had it. I've got to keep moving. This world's not going to spin itself, she says to herself.

Yeah, exactly. Anyway. Now it's time to play a game now that we've heard this tale, this tale of intrigue. Yeah. Yeah. Let's feud it up. I like feuding things up. If you guys want to participate in a home, 801-471-0-4-6-2 is the number to use.

And join us now as we do it. Welcome Brian Dunaway to the program, as always. Hello, Brian. Oh, hi, Scott and Brian. Hi. We should probably explain to people why the schedule had been so weird for Play Retro this week. It's just been a little weird. We had a couple of emergencies had to be taken care of a change in schedule.

So now we're doing it tonight. Right. Wait, wait, wait, wait. is this like Chinese democracy play retro like you know a little bit feels like it but uh it looks like it was like uh monday night was one thing and then Tuesday night was another and it's like i want to do this dinkin's show and scott's like we could just bump a week and like no i know brian's get said it's just it's like talk about itself all these fight all these fates are just against us this week but uh is uh audra's mom doing okay have you have you heard anything yes she she yeah yeah yeah she uh we

them to yeah it's it is crazy but it is like oh yeah get here now they must they must have a lot of people who are like, oh, yeah, I'll come pick them up as soon as I finish. Yeah. The problem is... Speed running Mario 3. Right. The problem is, over time, you kind of learn to just, like, ignore what they say, and so you're like going,

eh, it'll be an hour. We'll get there and we get there. And then somebody does show up on time. And then you get that phone call. Nobody wants that phone call. No, no. It's just like, Kim and she had her babies. They took forever for everything. They were like, yeah, we'll be out of here in 10 minutes. I love how you say... When Kim had her babies,

yeah like her babies you know so inconvenient right now having your your babies they came out of her water slide not mine i'm just saying uh just kidding hey check it out you look at that water slide up my friend i like i like a good summer water slide you'll be surprised at uh how much of this comes back up in today's beautiful let's find out who's been holding very patiently on the line for us hi who's this hi it's david from the 20 line well hello david did you Say New York? Hello.

Yeah, New York. Oh, okay. You cut out a little bit, but you're... It cuts you off a lot there. So, David from New York, and you said who you are in the chat room? Quantum Feline. Quantum Feline. Okay, yeah.

Yeah, that's a quantum level... It's like a Schrodinger's cat reference, right, or no? Yeah, that's the reference. There you go. All right. Well, it's good to have you here. We're thrilled to have you as our potential winner today, depending on how all this goes. Brian will explain the rules.

Well, technically, Quantum Feline has both won and lost. we just need to play out the game to find out which it is. Oh, that's true. He's both simultaneously won the game and lost the game. We just need to figure out which. Your is a binary outcome to this. Only you can decide. Yeah, exactly.

So Brian will explain the rules and how this works. Brian, take it away. Yeah, it's time to open the box and play the Tad Pooley feud. I've surveyed the Tadpool on some nerdy topics. Scott and Brian are going to have to predict the answers that they gave us. And it's their job to see how many of those answers they can guess. David, you're going to be working with one of these guys. So guess what?

Your role is even more important than it is in the other silly games we play on this show. If your team wins, you get a prize package that includes the survivalists and Greek, Memories of Azur. But Greek is spelled G-R-E-A-K, Greak. Greak? Yeah, we played that one not too long ago for the Boob Show. We had to remember. I don't remember that one. I don't remember that one.

I did that one, yeah. Kind of funny that only one of you remembers a game called Memories of Azur. Members of Azur, you remember? One of you won the game and one of you lost the game, clearly. Yeah, never played it. KT Data likes it, all right. And we must have liked it or you must have liked it. I don't know why I never played it.

It was good. I think I gave it like a 7.5 at a 10 or something like that. It was a team, it was a team 17 joint. Oh, we like them. Yeah, they make good games. Except they're doing some stuff I don't like right now. But anyway, go ahead, Brian. Oh, I didn't know that.

Yeah, I'll talk about it later. It's dumb. It's dumb. All right, well, let's get your game, shall we? Yeah. So we asked the Tadpool. 595 of them responded, but 33 of them can be arced to come up with an answer. Hands on buzzers, give me your answer to this.

This is, we asked the tadpool, what is your favorite pop culture sword? Oh, right. No, Scott. Scott, I'm Chodeburner. I'm going to say the Arthus's sword. I feel like they've got a lot of that in our crowd. What's that called, Scott? It's called, my brain's a little dead.

Hold on, it's the bub. Frostmorn, Frostmorn, Frostmorn. All right. Show me, Frostmorn. Number six, five answers will beat it. Brian, what did the Tedpool say is their favorite pop culture sword? Excalibur, right? I mean, is there anything more?

That's your question or your answer? Did I hear the question right? Pop culture sword? Okay, all right. Calibur is what you say, you say. Show me Excalibur. Throw it right back into the lake. Oh, number two.

Number two answers. So, Brian. This lady. Damn. You have control of the board. You're going to be playing with David, of course. David, Brian, what do you got? All right. David, are you a sword?

Are you a sword guy? Can I mean it to his swords? I don't know how many, of course, but I have. Oh. How is the lick in the tone? What's that? Your boat is super chopping. Oh, I'm sorry.

Oh, yeah, you're fine. It feels like it was just cutting out like it was doing voice cut out or something. Yeah, walk towards the light, Carol Ann. Yeah, you're good. How about the Master Sword? There you go. Oh, that's a good one.

Dang it. Show me that Master Sword link is waving around. Ah! Number three, answer on the board. Pretty sure you just did. It's totally fine that you did Mario. I was actually trying to do the little fairy that floats around. Oh, yeah.

Yeah, that's, I forget the name of that twinkly little turd. I hate that thing. Yeah. Twinkly little turd. Yeah. Winkly little turd. Yeah. Played base one. Does it blink?

Does it blink? Hey, pick a sword, damn it. You're still winning here. What do you want? You can't back off. The most popular than those two. Yeah, what's bigger? I mean, not that you're aiming for number one.

lower there's a lot of swords i can think of but all of them are like i don't know what that sword is called and i'm kind of thinking i'm kind of thinking that uh and i'm also thinking oh well people say some BS like for the record for the record i wouldn't have like buzz Scott if he wouldn't have been able to come up with frost morn for arthurus's sword i would have accepted Okay, okay. Okay. All right. Um, man. You can probably tell me the sword and who wielded it, and I'd be fine with that. Don't you just tell me what sword you're looking for?

I'm going to, I'm going to say, even though it's probably not on here. I like He-Man sword. Actually, I thought that's what he was talking about when he said master sword at first. I don't know what it's called, but. Yeah, what is that? I held the loft, this magic sword. Yeah, yeah, this magic sword. We go with this magic sword.

This magic sword. This magic sword. Right. All right. It's actually two swords in one, but that's, I can't room the stupid name. Yeah. Absolutely. All right.

Show me this magic sword. Number 10, it is called the power of sword. Yeah. The power sword. That's so dumb. What a dumb name. The power. It would have been your answer.

Yeah. It is better. Because I didn't, I mean, I wouldn't have known it either, but that's such a dumb name. Power sword. As opposed to what? The master sword? Yeah, that's a winner. Well, it's the master sword.

It's like there are several swords beneath it. This one is the sword that is the master of those swords. That's right. Power sword, the power to swish through the air. What is its power? Yeah. I mean, if it makes it, turns him into he, man. That's it.

Hey, David, or Skeletor. Hey, David. How, what do you, do you think the taboole's going to say something stupid? Like a lightsaber? Like, like, skyscabers are a sword. That's definitely a laser sword. Yeah. We're going to go with, uh, do we have to be specific or is it, uh, lights for probably.

Yeah, lightsaber. I'm going with the light saber is generic is. You know, if you need to be more specific, I'll say something like that's right. There you be more specific. There you go. Yeah. Uh, I need, no, I'm just kidding. Show me a lightsaber.

Yeah, number one. Nerves. Most people just put light saber, but a few people, the most common lightsaber mentioned was Mace Winde's purple one.

Really? Yeah. So not in people's minds about the dark saber or nothing like that. People are not thinking about that one right now? Are you saying

the dark sabers included in that or is that a, hmm, hmm. I would, I don't know. Oh my God. You're making it worse. I would say, I would say the dark saber is not a light saber is not a lightsaber.

I will say that. It's not a light saber. Opposite. That makes it worse. That's the whole idea. Yeah. Oh. What is it going to be? What is it going to be? Dave, you got any more?

Do you have anything else? What about the sword, both of the rings, um, gorn sword. Oh, you should do, you should do Frodo. Enderill or, is it Anderil? Stinger. Oh, you always

do. Oh, we got stinging. have andrel's sword or the sword anderil which is like forged that's the one that was the one in pieces when uh yeah charge of or something some assembly required andrew that's a good question then what do you think thing is a good one too sting is a cool sting is a cool and it's either remember which one's a top i don't know you want to make the call you want to make a call i think sting sounds interesting i like yeah sting yeah sting it we'll sting it if you love this answer set it free show me sting Number seven

Yes I think that It gives him an auto win Doesn't it? Let's see 17 plus 9, 26 No he could still win Barely could win

Okay If you run the board Yeah if you get one more And you get it right If you get eight or nine right I'm screwed Yeah if you did four or five still Keeps the wind open for Scott

But eight or nine closes it Sland it shut Great Do you want to fall back to Andrew Do you want to go back to that? I mean, if both of the rings, it's popular enough, let's get out of a shot. We already have it.

Let's give a shot, I agree. All right. Anderil? Okay. Is that how you say it? How do you say it? Is that how you say it? I say Adderall.

All right. You say Advil? I remember something totally different. Take a couple of Advil and call me in the morning. Show me Advil. All right. Show me, Anderil. Flame of the West.

Yeah. Erragon sword from, From the Lord of Reams. I think that might lock Scott out. So that gives us 18 left plus six. Yeah, you guys have won this. There's still four answers on the board. I think it's time to use some bullshit answers.

And zero strikes for anybody, which is crazy. I think it's time to bring some bullshit. How about... Guys know your S-words, man. How about we go with Voltron's sword? What does that thing called? you know when they all when they merge together

and he yeah who has that sword when they're all separate who's who's the keeper of the sword part they summon it oh they submit it yeah okay all right

I like Voltron but oh I think you're right I like Voltron a lot but whenever I try to explain Voltron in my own head it never goes anywhere well good so do you prefer the 13 ships

or just the five lions I like the five lions but I think I'm Yeah, that's classic. But the ships are cool, too. There's nothing, look, that whole, the Voltron universe, it's pretty badass. It's pretty good. Lyons for me, for sure.

Yeah. The lions are right. So you guys are saying the Blazing Sword from Voltron? The Blazing Sword. All right. Show me that one. Nope. No.

Only one person in the Tadpool said the Blazing Sword from Volta. It was probably me. Did I do that one? Maybe you did that one. Yeah. Scott, let's, you know, you've got four answers. three answers up here you could uh you certainly can't win but you can at least you know play um okay let's try gandolph sword i can stay in the lord of the rings what's that called it's uh glamour glamour glamour something oh was it glimmering glimmer yeah like glimmer that's that's

Show me glandering. Oh, I feel good about that. You guys don't know a cool sword if you're poking in the butt. Eight people said that.

It put it at number 15 in our list. I think we need to go back with the Dark Saber. It kind of implies. Oh, yeah, I forgot. Basically, we didn't use it even though we talked about it. yeah what do you think it's made its appearance in

vandalorian so yeah sure sure a spoiler for people haven't seen mandolarian uh

all right show me the first season that's like plenty of time all right show me the dark saber

Yeah, I do. It's a butter substitute.

I get it. All right. Yeah, I feel you. All right. I'm going to go with the sword of Gryffindor. Let's see if that made it. Sure. It's one of the...

All right, show me the sword of Gryffindor. Boo. That one did also make it on the list number 23. Four people said that one. Okay. Oh. Well, those four people are my friend. I love them.

Yeah. They are. David, do you have another one? Yeah, I got one. Cloud Sword from Fancy 7. Oh, that's a good one. That's a good one. That's a good one.

That's a ridiculous block, plywood block of sword. Yes. Things are a beast. It's amazing. All right. All right.

Show me Cloud's Buster Sword. Yes. Number four. Wow. Wow. All right. You guys are killing it. You are.

All right. Two answers left. Number five. What does the Tadpool like for swords? The only thing I can see left in my head is the sword and kill Bill. That's the only sword I can see left in my head when I'm going through all the references. What was it called? Yeah.

Umma Thurman's sword. Umma Thurman sword. Let's call it that. Let's call it umma Thurman's sword. All right. All right. Uh, show me. the bride's sword from kill bill oh good job it is uh number 11 it was the next it would

have been the next oh really 11 it is called the hattori hanzo sword that's a katana yeah okay the only people i can see holding a lot their mighty swords in my head that's that's all i got all right well scott two answers left all right let's see if i can at least get these uh there's the sword of damocles sword of damocles sword of damocles It's an old Greek story, poem, myth, sword. That's right. Like, you're damned if you do, damned if you don't. That's right.

It's what that is. It floated. It was cool. It was a very cool sword. It is a cool sword. Is it on the list? Yeah. Well, not even, I guess, probably not pop culture enough, but it is a great sword.

Hercules didn't have a sword. But, wait, Conan had a sword. What was that stupid thing called? Conan did have a sword. It was called the Atlantean. The Atlantean sword, I believe. Let me see here. Yeah, Atlantean sword.

It was number 14 in the list. The Atlantean sword is Conan's sword. Conan's sword. Conan host. Not a Conan Ryan. Right. It bums me out that those two have a different pronunciation of C-O-N-A-N. Listen, agree on one. I want either Conan or Brian or Conan the Barbarian.

I think you should fight to the death. Yeah, I agree. I agree. all right let's see what the remaining two on here this is what i'm kind of surprised you guys didn't mention uh it is connor mccloud's katana ah yes of course okay damn it did have a name other than his mcleads katana no i looked i looked uh for that one and it was the places i found it was just called connor coner mcloud's catana that's two clouds in uh one list we got clouds that is one right after the other it's really uh interesting mcloud and cloud

distinction. Yeah. Or yeah. And then lastly, this is one I never would have expected to be on the list higher than the bride's sword and kill Bill, for sure. It is the sword of omens. It should be sort of omens with an ass. Oh,

Thundercats. Oh, of course. My God, I didn't forget that one. He may have not thunder cats. Yeah, it's the one that came apart. That was the two-part sword, right? No, he was a two-part sword as well. Was it? I don't remember He-Man having two parts to his big, dumb sword?

Maybe he did. Scott. I don't know. Look, my He-Man knowledge is skin-deep. All right? It's not real good. It's not great. I know there's some guy named Two-Man.

He's pretty great. I like that guy. Two-man. Yeah, and I think Skeletor is a badass. Other than that, it's all shit. That's got that clip of you doing He-Man, however you got that. I held my mighty sword a loft.

I have power. And said, Bullshit or whatever I did. My stupid tiger. Yeah, it's a weird thing for me at that show. All right, so well done is the point. You win. You win.

Yeah, the point of that sort is you won. Congratulations, David. You were going to get these two awesome games. Send me an email at covervillageemail.com, and I'll get you your links. In the meantime, let's tell you guys what some of these other ones were. Longclaw and Needle, both from Game of Thrones. Needle. surprised that one wasn't a little bit higher.

Also from Lord of the Rings, we had Orchrist, which was Orchrist, which was Gimli's. No, somebody else's sword was Orchrist. The Batleth, I don't know if I'd say it's a sword. It's a weapon, but it's... I mean, it's sword-ish. Seven people felt like it was a sword. I mean, it's all covered in blades, but it's more like a sickle, or like a, not a sickle, like a, you would hold it

like a staff, but then it's curved blades. I don't know. Maybe it, maybe it works. Oh, yeah, Jifuncastly points out. Connor had a samurai sword, not a katana. That is correct, yes. Oh, okay. Thunder Fury from Wow came up. The energy sword from Halo. An ego Montoya's

rapier from Princess Bride. I actually thought about rapier, but I was like, who had one? Yeah. I can think right. Gunblade from Final Fantasy 7. Ice, also from Game of Thrones. Yeah. I think it was John Snow's?

Oh, with the wolf head on it? No, that was not. It was later, the one that was built out of the... Oh, yeah, no, Longclaw was John Snow. The one that was built with dragon, dragon ice or whatever. Ned's. Neds was ice, okay.

The key blade from Kingdom Hearts, which is the most awkward-looking sword ever, but... It's a giant Fnkees is why it's stupid. Stormbringer. Yeah. The sword and the stone. The Sword of a Thousand Truths. Ashbringer, Dark Saber, Ishiggo's sword, Masamune, the Atari sword. I don't know what that is.

The Talley's killing me. The dildo sword from Saints Row. It's really a weapon in the game. Wasn't there also one from one of the Jay and Silent Bob movies? Wasn't there a dildo sword? Was there? I don't remember that. I want to say that somebody had, like it was the dildo saver or something, and it went

roong instead of... Wow. I do that or that was a dream. The one in that game is ridiculous. Oh, the bonged saber, that's right. That's what it was. Oh, it was a bonged. Oh, okay.

Somebody said the Cole glave, not a sword. The, let's see, liono's sword from Thundercats, Mishon's, Catana. The rest of these are, oh, the Schwartz Ring, which is from space balls. Yes, I thought about that, but that's not really a sword. The person said it, so good, you didn't choose that. So hold on a second. What was the one you said right before that shoot? No, I forgot.

Oh, there's the Kroll Glade. Oh, the glave. Yeah, the glave literally is a glave, you guys. It's not a sword. Right, exactly, it is. They call it a glave for a reason. It's literally a glave. Which is the same thing.

You know what? Maybe the, maybe the Vulcan, or Vulcan, the, sorry, the, the, the, the batlith is basically a big halved glave because it is kind of circular until you until it isn't right yeah but you don't throw i think of a glaive is something you throw like the chinese star right yeah that's good point well no the glave for sure is a glave totally different but could i chuck oh that's different from the wait wait wait okay could i throw a cling on batleth is what i'm saying and right right glaive used it it was a it was a slashing weapon right you know i was confusing the crow glave with the

little throwing deal from crawl with the little points on it, the circular little throwing deal? That's the glave, right? Isn't that the glaive? I'm looking up glaive and glave is like a staff with points on the end, like the blades on the end. That is totally not what I thought a glaive was then.

A European pole arm consisting of a single edged blade on the end of a pole. Oh. I had no idea. I thought they called it a glave. I think they did. Call it a glave and crull. It had like three blades on her right, and you could use it a slashing weapon or you could throw it. I freaking don't know now.

Now that you told me a glave is in a round weapon, I don't even know what to make of anything. If you go to a glave on Wikipedia, it says the term glave is used in the science fiction fantasy film Krull to refer to a throne weapon, somewhere to the chakram or the hongamonga, which can return to the thrower much like a boomerang. I've never heard of a hungomunga.

I haven't either, but I've heard of a chachram. Chachrams are. Wouldn't you have to die from a hungamunga? That would be the worst. What about Sulu's fencing sword? I want that to be on there. Did they have a name? It's not on there.

Shirtless Sulu's... Yeah, they call it the shirtless Sulu's what that sword's... Yeah, the shirtless Sulu. MacGuffin was a sword, too, wasn't like the original McGuffin? Oh, was it? No way, really? I love that. If that's true, I love that. I want to see the history of it was

Let's see. Hold on. The Holy Grail was a MacGuffin. Alfred Hitchcock. Here we go. No, I guess it's... What is a MacGuffin? It just talks about movie stuff, but it doesn't say where it's... You know what?

It was the MacGuffin was the... I mean, the sword in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was an example of a MacGuffin, and that's probably what I'm connecting it to. Oh, I see. Okay. Well, there you have it. Guffins. Great. Well, well done.

Oh, I didn't play the tradition is this. Winner, winter, chicken dinner. Congratulations there, Dave. May New York truly be grateful for having you in it and being the big winner that you are. And a reminder, I know Brian already told you, but coverville at gmail.com is where you're going to want to send that. And congratulations, man.

Well done. Yeah, well done. Yeah, have a great week. We'll see you later. All right, there goes Dave. Dave's out of here. Dave's not here, man. So tonight, 3.30 mountain time.

It looks like it'll, no, I'm sorry, 4 o'clock mountain time because I have DT&S that goes a little long. So we're starting about a half an hour later than normal. But we are doing play retro today. It's happening. Okay. It's happening. So get your heretic to Hexen to Hexon to Hexon 2 hats on because we're about to go post doom on your ass. All right?

All right. All right. There we goes. We're going to take a quick break. When we come back from this break, we'll talk to Tom Merritt about the Daily Tech News headlines of the day, as well as Randy Jordan, who will join us and explain why he likes sex in the city so much. Right. He's got a, you got some splanin'n' too do. A little bit of spleenin.

Also recommendal. I'll stick around for that. That's right. Although I love his file. He sends me when he sends me his file, he calls, it says Randy Rec. And it's just kind of a cool name. The Randy Recreck. Yeah.

Randy Rick. I spell it all out. Brian Recommmental 1, MP3. Yeah. You're very, you're very studious or dutious. Yeah. Or whatever the word is I'm looking for. I'm a studious dutious.

I get bastard. Oh, my lord. All right. We're going to take a break. Let's do it. Let's play a song. What do you got? This one coming to us from Coal Mine Records.

A guy named M. Rosp. Perkins. He's got a sophomore studio album, which is called E. Pluribus M. Ross. Comes out March 18th. You're going to want to get it because this is some solid power pop. This is the kind of stuff I really dig. He's from Dayton, Ohio, and this is great stuff. Emross Perkins, and the song I'm going to be playing for you is called Mr. Marble Eyes. Oh, I love that name. It's almost better than Egghead Bastard. All right, here it is. We'll be back in a second. Stay tuned.

well have a little tom yeah let's have a little tom if i can find him there he is okay let's bring him on in here and see what we can get done here's his intro With the computer as with any tool The concept and direction Must come from the man That man is Tom Merritt And he's joining us like he does every Wednesday

To hit the big headlines around tech Right here on TMS Hi Tom, welcome back to the show I just heard him hit some of those headlines I know he's got another one Brian Did you hear that It's a he's a rough tumbler but man Knocking headlines out of the sky

That's right I know it sounds violent but the Headlines, I promise you feel no pain. Oh, okay, good. No, that's good to know, because, you know, do no harm. No headlines were harmed in the making of the sense. A podcaster's code after. Yeah, the podcast is code.

Do no harm. Hey, Tom, it's good to have you back, of course. Always fun to have you on a Wednesday. I'm always surprised how Wednesdays, at least in the last couple of years, seem to get some crazy breaking stories. Is today one of those days? I mean, define crazy. Let's say something you didn't see.

coming at a totally unexpected wow can't believe that happened today news uh yeah i'm not seeing anything quite like that there are some minor surprises uh google is going to uh do uh do an ad thing that that is going to upset in facebook so oh kind of saw that coming okay uh is it similar to what apple did to them because they're already mad about that it's it's going to be like cracking down on third party permissions on android uh you know we're that horrible crime of trying to encourage users to have control over whether their data is shared or not, rather than by default. Do you think they're over blaming? So there was just a lot of talk after that earnings report and there was that big dip in stock price and kind of had a rough one there.

There was a lot of talk like, well, this is just because of that because Apple changed the thing and, you know, now it's messing up their ad revenue. Is that true or is this a scapegoat? is it a like if you had to have a hot tom take on that what would you what would you say it depends on your on your business uh if your business is more diversified uh such as google's ad business um it's something you can deal with you know you don't love it anything that makes your business harder you don't love but you've got other options uh that's that seemed to be quite profitable if you are an advertiser uh that you yourself uh it's a little more challenging You can't get that big pop that you used to get.

If you're an up-and-coming advertising company like Amazon is, it is an opportunity to say, like, ah, we know that you're losing this one easy avenue, but we've got great technology. Come advertise with us because we're a first-party advertiser as well, which means we can put your stuff right in front of people shopping for spoons or whatever you're shopping for on Amazon. But if you're Facebook, who is,

built most of your business on sharing third party data it's hard you know I feel for them I feel for them Scott you know those billions are turning from from three digits to sometimes two

oh my gosh really only two in the billions so so it is it is a weird thing where I feel like they would like people to be sympathetic to the problem but I have a hard time

being sympathetic to it because I like having the control over where I get tracked and where I don't. So Facebook wants to think, wants you to think of them as Bob Facebook, who's just trying to help the small businesses. But if you think about it as like, this is a very big company that wants to make as much money as possible, well, of course they're going to try to convince you of like something that will help them move the needle in their advantage. They are going to take out full page ads.

as they did a year or so ago. But you are probably more partial to you than you are to them. Oh, yeah. Or unless you're a small business owner directly suffering, probably more partial to your own business than to some other nameless small business out there. So, you know, it was a good attempt for Facebook to kind of wrap themselves up in the cloak of protecting the little guy. I'm not sure how effective it was because of what you said.

Yeah, I don't think it worked at all. That's what I'm going to say. Nice job, Facebook. All right, well, so that's a thing. Also, Meta is apparently now referring to its employees as Metamates. Oh, shus. Really? Ooh.

Metamates. Okay, so I have to go hang out with some of those people. The Walmart has associates. Meta has Meta mates. I have to go hang out with some meta employees in VR in the next couple of days. And when I do, will it be bad if I say, hey, meta mates, how y'all doing in here? They're going to hate it. I asked my sister-in-law works for Facebook, and I said,

so do I have to call you Metamate? She's like, where did you hear that? I pointed her to the protocol article, and she's like, no, you don't have to call me. You don't have to call me. In fact, please don't call me that. That's interesting. I guess, you know, whatever, you've got people in all sorts of places come up with fun nicknames for themselves. But usually when it comes from the top down, I don't know if it is or isn't, but when it does.

Yeah, Disney has cast members, right? Sure. Yeah. No matter who you are at Disney. It's a lot better than Metamates, though. Yeah, I'm not sure about Metamates. Metamate sounds like a store, a toy that we were, like, a toy brought to you by Meta Musil, they tried to get us to buy in the 80s.

I was saying it sounded kind of like something you'd pick up at a pharmacy. Alan Schar wrote me, he's like, it's because it sounds like Meda, M-E-D-I. Oh, Medimates. Yeah, it does. Oh, do you have your Metamate card? We can save you $15 on your visit, yeah. Which actually probably is true. Yeah, that actually probably says.

If you're a meta-employee, you probably do get some pharmacy discount somewhere. Well, so there you go. we'll talk about that, of course, at some length and many other topics. Actually, yeah, we got a big one today. Scott's going to talk on DTNS. We've talked about this a little bit on GDI before, but we're going to talk on DTNS about about NFTs and art fraud, something that directly affects Scott. Scott loves the, like, Scott loves to talk about this, so it should be good. Yeah, I do actually.

I think it's a big, especially from an artist perspective. You do love to talk about it. You don't like it. No, I don't like it at all. You don't love the fraud. You just love the talk. Yeah, the fraud sucks, but there is some, like, some crazy. numbers released in the last couple of weeks about, you know, a level of fraud and what these places are doing about it, which is good to see some of the movement on that front. So we'll talk about all that stuff, all angles of it. I'm looking forward to it. As someone who's actually been approached numerous times by people saying they minted my artwork and would like me to buy it back from them, I have some thoughts. So we'll see. Which I have, when we talk about it on GDI before, I have said like a lot of those aren't real. A lot of those are fishing attempts. Good platform.

will drive out the bad stuff. But what we're going to talk about today is the fact that there don't seem to be any safe platforms right now. Not at the moment. Maybe there will be someday, but right now the platforms are experiencing the same phenomena that social networks experience with moderation. They're overwhelmed.

Yeah, it's pretty crazy. So you ban one and three more show up is kind of the problem they're having. So we'll get to all that and talk about it at length today on the Daily Tech News Show. Tom, anything else going on? Yeah, DailyTechnewshow.com slash live. if you want to watch that later today on our Twitch channel, or you can always get everything on demand

and I send you a newsletter every week where you can respond to me and ask me questions about the stuff I talk about. This Friday, I think I'm going to talk about how a few of my tweets went viral in portions of the K-pop universe. Oh. And how I've dealt with that

and how it makes me happy and scared, but mostly happy. So get that free time. I did it once. It was semi-viral with BTS fans, and I thought I might die at the end of it. I thought I might be killed. It was really something. Those guys are, they are the stands among stands, man. A lot of love, though. Oh, 99% love. 99% love, but don't ever say anything remotely. That's even just on the surface seems to be like, maybe I don't love BTS. Oh, man. James Corden found that out too. Yeah, he found out the hard way. Tom Merritt, I look forward. to seeing you the easy way today.

Daily Techno show today, 2.30 Mountain Time. Have a fantastic week. We'll see you next time. Thanks y'all. Bye now. Bye. Bye.

Bye, Tom Merritt. All right. Yeah, if anyone's worried, I'm just going to rant. I'm not. We're going to get into like the actual gristle of that world and what's going on in that. Yeah, which is good, which is a good, it's good for people to know that kind of stuff. Yeah.

I mean, OpenC is saying they're even admitting like 80% of their, their NFT stuff is fraud right now. Wow. Like, that's, that's really bad. It is really bad. It's really horrendous. Yeah. When your whole job is to facilitate

the trade and purchase of NFTs, and you can only guarantee that 20% are legit, like what is going on? All right. Let's get Randy all up in it, inside of it. Because that's where he belongs, damn it, is right up inside of it. What will Randy's level be today?

14 out of 10 or 22 out of 10? I'll give it a a caffeine factory out of its whole industry. That's what I think we'll get today. All right, let's find out when we push this button. Hey, look who it is. It's Randy Jordan, aka Randy Deluxe,

joining us for Recommendals. Hi, Randy. Good morning, morning, stream. How are you? I'm doing very well. I've had, I'm only into the beginning of my second cup of coffee, but I did something today that really excites me.

Some time ago, like last year, I cut down the amount of sugar I put in my coffee by like two-thirds. So like I started using like a third of a tablespoon instead of like the whole tablespoon of sugar. And today I decided to see what happens. Like what did that used to be like? What was it like back when I used to go full on sugar? And yeah, I try that today.

I'm not going to do it again. But it was very interesting. Well, it's nice once in a while. You got to go back to your roots. I get it. How many? So you said you're on your just starting your second cup. How many ounces is your cup?

Is it like one of those? I got this at a convenience store cup to hold my... Yeah, I don't like big coffee mugs because your coffee gets cold too fast. I don't drink it so fast that I could get through it. Yeah. So, yeah, mine is a, it's a typical, like, if you fill it up to the brim. No, no, no, no, no, no. Coffee mug, like, if you fill it up to the brim, it's like 10 ounces.

Oh, okay, like the, it's a small, okay. Yeah, it's a mug. Still, yeah, a normal mug, a mug, you're a mug man. That's a sharp. Well, like our TMS mugs and our film sack mugs are 14 ounces. Those would hold like 14 ounces all the way to the rim, but you know, you don't fill it up that high. But, you know, I have a lot of coffee mugs. And it's really sad to me because, like, you can't use them.

What do you like? I have like 100 coffee mugs. You cannot use it. I use two. I have a ton. I use one. I use this ember right here, which has a little base and charges it and keeps my coffee at 135 degrees all damn morning long. Yep.

That's the way to do it. I got a really fun ember mug from, uh, giveaway at work and it's you know it's a bit just a little bit of a pain in the ass right so like i kind of i kind of like having my standard you know uh non non like non-elacified mug but um i was going to say like the on the other hand uh my favorite mug that i ever had i i found in hawaii on the big island at a restaurant and i bought two of them when i when i was there i bought two of them because i just had a feeling like i'm going to fall in love with this mug and i'm going to hate myself if I break it. And I did. And so I had a backup. So that's why I have so many mugs. That right there.

There's a lesson there. Always have redundancy in all of your parts of your life. You know? If you think you're going to shit your pants, you have two pairs of pants. That's what I say. True. Yeah. Well, all right. It's good to have you here. We're going to do recommendals is where we recommend stuff. We saw on streaming services of some sort or another. We'll recommend them here and then tell you guys where you can get them. So stick around for that. Hey, Brian, let's start with you. You got two today. What do you want to, what do you we're going to start off with the first one is a film this is a newer film and um the subtitle of this film could have been called angry british whispering uh but they kept it short for the title so let's see

let's see what this is all right william told me before we came here he didn't want to shoot guns i want to talk because someone said something about clothes will he be all right yes of course you would dresser said something about clothes i mean will he be safe it's perfectly safe you wear protective glasses how can it be safe if you have to have were protective glasses. Yesterday, you arrived after the Queen. I got lost. Oh, how could you get lost?

You've lived over the hill for years. It looks different now. Everything looks different. You're sure you went late yesterday because you were delayed by someone? Someone? Which is what someone might have delayed you? No.

Sometimes you get delayed by someone. no one says anything it's perfectly acceptable for you to be delayed by someone i can ask if it's a tradition he's some british ass people what's going on they are some british ass people actually it's one british ass person and an american person pretending to be a british ass person both talking about affairs that uh caused them to be delayed by someone that is uh spencer that is uh you're hearing christin stewart doing a really good job at not just you know faking a british accent but also um sounding a lot like Diana, Princess Diana. This movie is about the Princess Diana,

kind of four days in the life of Princess Diana, centering around Christmas in 1991. So this is, you know, Charles is already sleeping with Camilla. She's been messing around as well. But she's also kind of trying to get out of, this whole life of the being in the royal family. Some of this stuff in the movie

is dramatization based on speculation. It's called a historical fiction psychological drama because, you know, you need four words to describe a movie these days. Of course. But it is so there's a lot of question about, and there was a lot

of, you know, kind of announcement when this movie was released that it was, hey, this is historical fiction. It's based on some accounts from staff and workers among the royal family, but we can't corroborate some of this stuff, to be sure. Is she good? She looks like, keep hearing, she's amazing.

She is amazing. She does a really good job. Like, this will make you forget she was in that Sparkly Vampire movie series. Great. She, as a matter of fact, was nominated or has been nominated for the Academy Award for this role, because she does such a good job. And it's the only, I think it's the only award. There's probably like a, no, I take that back.

There's not even a costume or production design or anything. The only award this is nominated for is Best Actress for Kristen Stewart. Nice. Make no mistake. She's great in it. Yes, Randy. So why isn't it more highly rated? Like, why didn't this movie get any more nominations?

I think because it's a period. piece in a in a year where there are a ton of period pieces um i feel like this this easily could get lost in the shuffle of those um kind of the same reason i feel like the last duel didn't get any nominations it's a really really good movie but it kind of disappears among all these other movies that can look like it yeah i i totally i can see that i just like i look this up on rotten tomatoes and i'm like okay it's 84% with the critics i guess that's not too bad whoa 50% with the audience. What? Oh, really? I didn't know that. That's surprising. And then over on it's, you know, on Amazon, if you wanted to go rent it on Amazon, it's like 54%. Interesting. I feel like I lean more towards the critical reviews on this. I feel like it's a good, an 80% is a good solid score for me on this one. It's excellent. It is a lot more. I like, I like movies, biopics that focus on a short period of time. That's what I really liked about being the recovery. is that it focuses on one week this week when, when Lucille Ball got accused of being communist.

I don't need to see them, you know, wearing weird distracting makeup to make them look young, and then weird distracting makeup to make them look old. Focus on three or four days in the life of this character that really defined who they are. And this one at times makes Diana look like she's losing her grip on reality. A lot of the stuff in here, her dealings with her sons and her dealings with the royal family. This is the time that she was bulimic and she was, you know, trying to maintain a weight for the queen, but also on her own, just throwing up and even at one point, I think it was established she threw herself down the stairs to get out of the marriage with Charles. um that's not shown in this but you kind of get it feels like it's in this same time period now i have another question why did we why did we used to like biopics that used a lot of makeup

to make someone look old like we like amadeus amadeus is a great example right we still like them i think it's just i think we still like them if they're done well i don't personally i just like the short ones i like them i don't mind them if they're if they're drawn out one of my favorite well that's not historically accurate but i love the movie avalon and part of why i like it is it represents like the 20s through the 70s and there's something about that time passing in the changing culture that's really poignant in that film but i you know it doesn't work doesn't work every time so i i get that i get the idea that it's not as great it's also why we like seasons of the crown rather than you know we look at it a season oh this is the clairfoy seasons of the crown she's really good

playing this, this specific version of the queen. And then we've got this other one, this other specific version of the queen with Olivia Coleman. I think it's, you know, it's, we like these little, little bite size pieces of a biopic. And we also like the majority of the people who are submitting their user ratings, right, are Americans. And we all watched Oprah with Megan and Harry last year, right? And so we're all like primed to freaking hate these people. Did you take a break from men just like that to watch the, uh, I did not see any of that.

Wait, wait. What did Oprah even do? That she just had people on or something? Or what was her deal? You talked about it on the morning. Yeah, we definitely talked about it on the show. Did we? I didn't remember this at all.

I remember nothing. Or not William. Megan and Harry. Harry. Thank you. Jesus. She had them on and then what happened there? Anything happened?

They just talked or what? Yeah, they talked for hours. And we got to see, we got to see a super cut and then we got to see a behind the scenes. And then there were all these articles. where people interviewed them about the interview and they just like didn't hear any of it. A whole generation of Americans

who only sort of knew distantly about the royal family suddenly know that the queen is, you know, is the head of a terrible insular mob, you know? Right. Yeah. Good for anyone who enjoys that.

This extended beyond like Royals news and reality news and Oprah News. This was every. everywhere. So I am surprised you definitely knew about at the time and you've done something to black it out of your memory, which is good. And I applaud you. I'll tell you what else got. The Beijing Winter Olympics are happening right now. Yeah, no, I knew about that. That I knew about. It took me a couple of days, but I figured that out. We watched it and that damn, that Russian heart medicine doping girl. It's crazy. This is one of the most, like, ridiculous scandals that's happened. And of course, it has to do with the Russians, of course. Come on. But hearing, holy cow, hearing Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinski,

outside of their usual bubbly, saccharine, sweet everything versions and getting like angry during the commentating, it's like, wow, they just, this is a black mark on everything. Who in the past ever rose to that cultural level of Joddy Weir and Darry Lipinski for a small sport. I can't, I can't think of anybody. I just, it's so, yeah, wow. We got to move.

We got to keep going here because Hulu is where you're going to find Spencer. So if you've got a Hulu account, Spencer is on there waiting for you to watch it. And I'd say watch it. It's really good. It's very entertaining. And Kristen Stewart is reason enough alone to watch it. The guy who plays Prince Charles is Jack Farthing. The only thing I knew about Jack, or the only thing I'd

ever seen Jack Farthing was that that TV show with the it was like friend the British friends I can't remember what it was called but no idea dating or something like that I can't remember without looking him up

in my mind Jack Farthing is in the exact same bucket as Matthew Mercer he's a he's an even skinnier Matthew Mercer is that is that am i right is what i was thinking of yes oh but maybe i'm even confusing with somebody else i don't know who mat mercer is oh wow matt mercer you know matt mercer he's the he's the head of all things critical role and you know oh that man mercer okay that guy voice actor and all that is my am i right does jack farthing look like him no not even in the slightest okay

yeah not at all it's funny the uh i'm looking at the guy from coupling and that's exactly who i thought it was, and he's not, um, he's not the guy from coupling. He just happens to look a lot like the guy from coupling. Gotcha. Never saw coupling. Was coupling good? Jack Devonport. Uh, coupling was entertaining. All right. Sexy British people doing sexy. I just looked him up and yes, he looks exactly like Matt Mercer. Oh, all right. Well, there you go. What you're on. So, you say. All right. So number two, Brian. Number two is a series and this is, uh, I'm going to watch the chat room to see if anybody knows what this is, because I was recommended to this, and I'm glad I checked it out. All right, here we go.

So, let's talk about Lisa Nova. Can you sell me Lisa Nova? You mean sell my movie idea? No, actually, I don't. Everybody's got an idea. There's only one you. So who are you? Sell yourself to me.

Okay. So, I'm sure you hear this all the time, but I'm not like every other director out there. Oh, you're not? I witness a murder, right? I saw the guy. Got a good look at him. Now all the cops are standing around, the sketch artist has her pad and her pencils and everyone's waiting with bated breath. and I say the killer was not like a jellyfish. Don't tell me what you're not.

Copy that. Don't worry. You're still young. We keep going until we get it right. He sounds like a young. David DuCovny. It sounds like somebody doing a David Dukovny impression. It's funny.

I hear David Dukovny. I hear Jeff Goldblum. I hear Mandy Patinkin is what I was going to say. Mani Patinkin. Oh, yeah. That's another. good very good comparison there um that is a show on netflix called brand new cherry flavor and this is one that was recommended to me i'm like it but it went in knowing absolutely

nothing about it i checked rotten tomatoes and said all right well how you know where does this stand um this is an 81 percent uh with an average rating of 7.1 out of 10 um and i think i think well deserved this is really really good and very creepy here's here's what it is it's if David Lynch and Cronenberg and Robert Altman got together and made a series. Because it's like this seedyer dark side of Hollywood with some gore and some very whacked out Lynchian kind of characters. It's basically this writer comes to L.A. She's created this amazing self-produced short film.

director who you hear there, Eric Lang playing Lou Burke, wants to produce it and brings her in with the intention that she's going to direct it, but he kind of screws her over with a contract and ends up wanting to give it to somebody else. So she, and this all happens really quickly, so it's kind of all this is set up, she goes off and somehow finds her way to this woman named Borough, who is a magician voodoo priestess something or other played by Catherine Keener

who is awesome in this I mean very it's Catherine Keener get out level Catherine Keener okay creepy level who uses her magic to cast a spell

that that will help put a pox on this director or this producer's life in exchange Lisa Nova has to puke up kittens every once in a while. And that's all the setup I'm to give you because I want you to check this out

and see how whacked out weird and good this is. And it starts Alita Battle Angel? Yeah, that's what she is. That's who she is. Yes, Rosa Salazar, Alita Battle Angel, Parenthood. It's hard to tell because her eyes aren't gigantic in this. So it's hard to tell. It's the same girl.

That's right. That's what, okay, yeah, because they did that whole like video photoshopping thing. she's also been in the Divergent series she has a star trek connection she played a uh in in um star trick uh the tv show the newer the newer tv show she's like a discovery discovery thank you she's like a uh bridge member crew member in one of those but um anyway uh she's one of the kids in bird box that's cool oh there you go okay yeah i like that um so we're gonna so we're gonna watch it because it's entertaining it's creepy it's weird it's entertaining creepy um freaking katherine keener this is one of the best things i've ever seen katherine keener in aside from uh being john malcovich and get

out um and please tell me it has lots of jason mendoza please it does yes so jason mendoza from uh the good place good job thank you it's her it's your friend um nanny jacinto uh you see a lot of him and you also see Jeff Ward who was Charles Manson in Manson's Lost Girls, the movie. I know him best and maybe there's like three other people out there who know him best as Deek

from Marvel's Agents of Shield. He was the closest thing we got to a Bradley Cooper character in the last two seasons of Agents of Shield. I agree. I think I agree with you. Bradley Cooper Light is what he is.

Yeah, yeah, exactly. He's got to He's kind of up and coming. I think we have a lot more to come from that guy. Yeah. Yeah, why not? He's great. So anyway, this is a brand new cherry flavor.

It's on Netflix. And it is the good. And it's complete. This is like beginning, middle end, and you're good. Nope, this is season one. Eight episodes. There's definitely going to be a season two. Oh, there is?

It says limited series. Is that true? Oh, does it? That's what it says on their listing. Maybe let me take a look here. Production. Cherry flavor. Oh.

Oh, I'm sorry, you're right. The production of limited series was created and written by executive produced by Nick Antoska. All right. I mean, it's, it tells the complete story. I think it's just the fact that I want more. I liked it so much I want more of it. But it does have a satisfying end. Okay, that's what I mean. It does have a satisfying end. Yes. Okay. Interesting. Okay. Well, I'm definitely going to watch this. It sounds like my jam. It is whacked out and it's great. It's so good. I'm all in. All right. Here's mine. This is a documentary. It's on HBO Max. Just landed there. It is one of the most fascinating things I've ever seen. Here's the clip. You got about 7-8 data bursts and 7-8 maybe more Social Security numbers. Antoine Boots Tani, Robert Hansen, Robert Medina. Do you ever get parolees that really want to straighten up and that, you know, and, you know, and they do good?

A lot of guys. We have a lot of guys. It's possible. You know where I could cash this at? I ain't got no ID. Okay. Robert Medina. I got you as Robert Steffey.

And I'm saying if this was for Robert Steffey, I could take you to the bank. You see what happens when you use fake names? Yeah, geez. I'll get a cash. It don't matter. All right. Any guesses? No idea.

This movie is called Life of Crime, 1984 to 2020. It's a documentary made by John Alpert. He's done a bunch of other work that you would recognize. But this is interesting because he started filming this in 1984 and following around these, like, petty criminal guys that lived in New Jersey. And literally filming, like, them robbing a store. and then getting away with it multiple times and just kind of trying to understand their lifestyle when they started getting into drugs

that he was sort of there just filming it, this guy. They clearly like and trust him because they just sort of let him tag along. And then he covers these people and some other people that are connected to them all the way up through 2020. Do you guys remember those British documentaries,

the seven and up and up and up? Oh yeah, seven up, 21 up, yeah. Yeah, it's like, think, think that, but just one case, and it's just following these guys throughout their lives. And, man, it was a fascinating deconstruction of what criminal life and drug use can do to people and to people around them. But in particular, just how bad the heroin epidemic in the 80s and 90s and then today the opioids and stuff and just how this just wrecks lives. and there are moments of like real triumph here you're like man this one guy he's doing good look at him now and then total re what do you call it re not rehab uh re you go back and you do it again you

relapse that's the word i meant uh total relapse and then you know fighting back again and all this sort of stuff and this is all done with footage and no narrator um there might and there may have been one or two moments of narration. But for the most part, it's just, here's this raw footage. So it's raw footage documentary. There's not a lot of commentary that just kind of show you how it is. And you can see how time changes. You see people who were little kids.

They were now in their 30s. Like you get to see the whole swath of life for these people from 84 to 2020. And it was wild. Just one of the most interesting documentaries I've seen in a very, very long time. It's a cool way to do it, too. I don't think he ever, who knows what he meant to do? I don't think he meant to do. You remember the Linklater movie where the boy's life or whatever?

Or boyhood, yeah. It feels a little like that except that felt more planned like that guy knew he was going to do the chunk of time. Yeah. I never saw it. It was planned. Yeah, I never saw it. So I have no idea. But my point is, you should watch boyhood.

I'll watch boyhood. Boyhood is a masterpiece. It's on a list of things I've never seen. I should watch. But anyway, this, this is. This feels more like he was doing this back then, but didn't have a plan to go to 2020 with it. Like, I think he just started doing it. And then over time, he's got other films he's making.

He's do other things, but he still checks back in with these guys. And then I think he just took all that footage because there is kind of an ending to their lives. I don't want to spoil anything, but it's definitely worth watching to see how these people ended up. And, you know, you cover them from their, like, young 20s up to their 60s and everything in between. it's just an amazing documentary it's two hours long i wouldn't be surprised if this is up for a bunch of awards come and you don't feel like you needed to watch one year in a life of crime and then the sequel before this wait what there was a sequel before this yeah this is the third of three films oh i didn't know that hold on uh yeah it's it he he has a film back in the 80s called one year

in a life of crime and then he has one in the 90s called life of crime too oh is it these guys guys in those oh it is okay so so he must have broken it up before i didn't know that yeah this is just this is like a whole other i mean this includes all of that i don't know that it's every second of footage but this is this is all of that culminated because it's not they don't jump ahead there's there's no there's no indication like oh where we last picked up it's it's like this is the whole story so i think what happened there is he probably let's see this this goes further to what i was thinking he probably thought okay well here's my short little thing oh interesting this stuff happened that's 10 years later let's do another one and now I think what happened is he just

had all this stuff for 38 years or whatever it's been and he just decided yeah I'm going to make one big ass movie out of it or whatever I don't know what he did but I really really like it a lot how long is it uh two hours oh yeah oh I thought this was going to be like a four hour thing you know multi episodes yeah it's just sit and watch it and uh you're in you're good uh highly recommended, especially if you like documentaries, you know, real life stuff. It's going to be depressing for some, maybe triggering for drug addicts and things like that because they do not flinch from certain things. But it's very, very good. All right. Randy, let's play your clip. Do you have any set up? Are you sure? Are you sure you have time? You got time? Barely time. Yeah, we got time.

You know what? Mine is very evergreen. We can do it some other time. No, no. We're totally doing it. Let's do it. I'm going to play it. Here it is. All right. No statute of limitations on murder. So, I mean, suppose you do date, I don't know, somewhere in the 30s. Are you seriously going to use your ever-dwindling resources to investigate a crime 80 years old? It was still somebody's son, though, isn't it? Might even have his own kids, who might still be alive if it was the 30s. I never knew my father.

I got over it. 68 years ago. I don't know. Is a crime less serious because time's passed? It is a wrong, less wrong because it was done 50 years ago, or 60 or 70. I think if people are still alive who are affected by it or even if they remember people that were affected,

I think a society has a responsibility to take it seriously. No matter how far back, no matter how old they are. I don't know. Feels like history to me. Ancient history. See? Sounds like Michael Kane, no?

It's not at all. This is a ITV procedural called Unforgotten. Please, please go watch Unforgotten. Like, I have been, I've just been absolutely obsessed with this show. Really? Since it was shown to me, it is a it is a little bit like c s i it is a little bit like your you know your s v u etc but it's it's english it's uh it's six episodes per season there's four seasons of this show um every

season tells a complete story and every season hits you with um a different case that these main people the main person you just heard talking is nicola walker as the lead investigator on each of these cases and she's got a partner played by Sanjeev Bashkar who is, you know, they just have a fascinating little relationship that goes throughout the four seasons of this thing. She was talking to, I think,

Peter Egan, her father in that scene. And I pulled that scene out of the first episode of the first season because it sort of describes a show. She's an investigator. She keeps coming across these ancient cases and but finds out they have a tie to something happening right now in her modern world. So she brings this whole team to try to figure out who done it. And you get to watch as you go, you get to watch the stories of all the different suspects. So it gets unpacked like lost.

And you're looking back at all of these different people and their lives and what they were then and where they are now. And so it's very dense is what I'm saying to start each season. And you spend the first couple of episodes of this show going, man, I do not know who all these people are or what they're doing. There's so much to take in. You could almost watch the first couple of episodes over and get even more out of it, you know? She got kind of a racket going here. And I don't mean in a bad way. She's in all of these kinds of shows.

Kim, Kim and I watched River. We watched MI5. She's in both of those. She plays investigators in those. Like she's kind of got a thing that she does. Yeah, MI5 is called Spooks over here. in the States. Yeah. Oh, other way around. Spooks in Britain,

MMI 5. Right, right, right. Right. Yeah. Yeah. But this is, I mean, this is, this is probably the best of this kind of show I've ever seen. It is probably like it, I, I mentioned CSI, but it's nothing. It's so much better than CSI. It's like CSI is made fast, right? It's made that you get a lot of episodes out and so on. Like, this is better. You know, you know how CSI was that first show that you ever came across back in the 90s where you were like oh they put a pop song on the beginning of this show right yeah they have a pop song on the beginning of this one and it's so good i don't even want to tell i don't want to tell you what it is really okay but this it starts with a song that has worked its way into my brain and is now a part

of my every day this oh wow this song at the beginning of unforgotten it's uh i'm gonna i'm gonna wrap it up it's been it's uh streaming in the states on amazon prime uh out in canada it's on britbox it was an ITV show so if you're in the English-speaking Commonwealth it's probably available to you. And man it's so freaking good. Here's what you want to do everybody. If all three of these things

or four of these things sound amazing to you and you want to make sure you catch them, watch Randy on his Twitter account at Randy Deluxe and of course on our Discord and everywhere else that you find Frog Pants community, there'll be a listing of where you can get it how to get it and where to get it. Randy have a fantastic thing. A quick DMSLI has photos

and links as well. Oh yeah. By the way, By the way, the first season of Unforgotten, I just forgot. The first season of Unforgotten star, one of the stars, one of the suspects, is Bernard Hill. Theoden King from the two towers. Oh, I love him. There's a big callback. Yeah, that guy's great. Amazing.

And it's one of those shows where you spend the whole time going, is the highest billed person, the suspect who did it? I don't know. And you don't know. And you won't know. And it's wonderful how it comes up with a big twist to reveal at the end. He was great once he got Wormtung out of there. bastard. All right, Randy, have a fantastic week.

I look forward to next week. We'll see you then. Bye now. Oh, FilmSack this weekend, everybody. I forget what we're doing. That's right. And I don't know if we said it, but that that's streaming on Amazon Prime. I think he did not, actually. Did he said that? I don't think he did. He said ITV at the beginning because it's a British import, but there you go. Amazon Prime is where you get that.

That's going to do it, everybody. Thank you for hanging out with us and being here and enjoying the show right along with us. For those of wondering why Scott seems like you might have been in a tiny bit of a hurry. I have a, it's just lunch with Hammond. It's not like a, it's not the end.

Oh, Corla, quad. Oh, okay. Yeah. Well, that's the way this stuff goes. Okay. Brian, let's play a song. Do you have one to get us out on? See, now that's something I don't have time.

But one wordle, one five-letter word? I got time for that while I'm drinking my coffee. Sure. I'm making my coffee in the morning. Sure. Four, five-letter words, no effing way. Mm-hmm. All right.

Let's get to the final song here. This one is going out to Dustin Anderson. He says, hope everyone's doing well. As far as we know, we have avoided the Rona as well here in our family. even with a trip to Hawaii for our son's high school band for the Pearl Harbor 80th anniversary. That's super cool. I just tripped across this song on Facebook and thought I'd share. Anytime it's fine to play this.

No specific date is requested. Say Stave, sign Dustin Anderson. Excellent. Well, this is really good, and this is a favorite band of mine.
