This is the morning down, cross the VWXYZ. This is the morning stream, doing it for a Kowalski. Good morning, everybody. Welcome back to TMS. It's the morning stream. for April 12th, 2022. I'm Scott Johnson. That's Brian Nibbitt. Hi, Brian. Hi, Scott. How are you?

You know, last night was a little bit of a trip. Get it? Get it? A little bit. A little bit of one. And, you know, as a result, I didn't sleep very well. I kept thinking about it and dreaming about it. And didn't like it. So, yeah, but I'm here now. You know, is A&P turning into the Oscars? I mean, I'm trying to figure it out. I don't know, man. It's kind of a cursed season. But listen, I think that that'll just get people.

who haven't heard it excited to consume the whole damn thing, I suppose. It's not what I want. It's not the reason I do this show, but all right. No. It's a good point, right? It's not, it's all supposed to be smiles and happy times, but sometimes. Yeah, exactly. Sometimes.

Anyway. We're back, though, and we got lots going on. We hope you are all well. I'm going to have a productive day, damn it. That's how it's going to work. Good. Good. I'm making this happen.

Yeah, I'm getting on the bike today. Hell or High Water. I'm putting on my long clothing. my uh because it's going to be a high of like 54 55 today so do you guys not get all that snow that came through or didn't get any snow we're supposed to get rain and possibly snow in the high country today yeah you know the mountains uh i woke up to eight inches of snow everywhere it's all over the place there yeah it's bad like as bad as any april storm we've ever had in april that i can remember and it was like snowing all night long and now it'll all melt and get

again, but it's freaking crazy. I saw that and went, well, I guess Brian won't be riding tomorrow, but it sounds like you guys didn't get it, so that's good. Yeah, no, it's dry and relatively clear. I don't know when the rain's supposed to start, but hopefully I can get out. If not, I've got the indoor bike, and I've got, you know, all the weird people on the overly happy people on Apple Fitness Plus to get me through. Those people are stoked, man.

They are. There is, uh... I'll have what they're having. It's like... Have you ever seen anybody so excited about anything? I don't know if their vegan lifestyle has just got them rocking or if they're just like, I don't know if I could be around them. You know what I mean? I know.

I'm curious about what they are like in real life. Does anybody know, like are you friends with a person, like a, not a personal trainer, but like a spin instructor? Spin. Like a bike. And how are they after they, when the, when the music's off, when they're off the bike? Yeah. What are they, did they turn into just, are they monsters? when they're done?

Right. Because I've known, look, I've known a few people in, let's call it broadcasting, who are not the same off air. Does that make sense? Sure, sure. We all probably know somebody like this, but there's, everyone always asks, you know, they ask Kim, is Scott, what's Scott like? It's the same.

I'm the same. What's Brian like? He's the same. We're really not that different. But there are people in our sphere, who I know personally, who are very different off air. And so I wonder if some of those people are, like, all right, push it to the end.

Okay, we've had the best day ever, you get me. And then they go home and just, like, beat their dog or something. I don't know. That's right. Focus on the top of that hill. We're almost there. Just push, push, push. We got this. All right, let's list some more Miley Cyrus. Yeah. And then they go home and go, I don't know. I have no idea.

Hey, I got an email. I want to bring up early here. Okay. All right. People are always calling me out on stuff. May as well spread the word here. Craig says this. Scott, please say Charlize Theron's name correctly. It's Theron, not Theron, or Theron.

I can't tell if he I can't tell if he means their own, right? Because that's how he typed it. Their own. Or if he means Therone. Yeah, I don't know. Right. Hard to say. Because he's put in these like, what do you call this? Phonetic.

Phonetic. Yeah, phonetic spelling is the words. And he says, it's driving me crazy every time you say it, says Craig. All right, Craig, you think it's Theron? Guess what I found? Listen to this. All right, buddy, hold on. Where is it?

I lost it. Okay, hold on. There it is. All right. Here is Charlize herself. Yeah. Saying it as recently as just a few days ago. All right?

So here it is. Hi, I'm Charlize Theron. Theran. Oh, what? She says, she says Theran. Hi, I'm Charlize Theron. Okay, either she gave us. up and said whatever i'll just do it like the way everyone says it and that's just going to be my name

or that's how you say it either way it's her saying it i take her over uh craig here yeah sorry craig sorry craig when's the last time an email made you and i mean this only in the uh only because it's a famous phrase but we got it right from the horse's mouth yeah we did but that'll you know listen beautiful beautiful horse if you didn't she's a lovely horse but if you didn't think that i wouldn't do my research and find it uh you're your wrong. Listen, when you send these emails in, I pay attention, man. And if he was right, I would, you know what? I would have

admitted it. It would have been fine. Yeah. I'll just start calling her Thron. Thron. Oh, I like Throne. Charlize Thron. Yeah. Grand Admiral Thrawn. I love it. Exactly. She's blue skin. She's leader of the empire for one book, two books.

Something like that. Everybody wants him back now and I guess, oh no, he's canon again in the cartoon, right? He is canon again, yeah. Okay. That's I think they had them in Clone Wars, if I remember correctly. Clone Wars and Rebels, I think. I think he was in Rebels? Rebels was good.

Maybe it was just rebels. I don't remember. Anyway, Craig, I hope you're not too upset about this revelation, but it's her herself saying it, so there you have it. While I'm at it, while I'm at the kind of audio mind here, I heard a thing from David Lynch I wanted to share. Oh, okay. Is he going to tell us not to, uh,

watch his movies on our phones anymore. It's ridiculous. You can't watch. I can't do his voice. I don't know how to do his voice. But anyway, he he's a, you know, well, well-established long-time filmmaker,

highly respected, very unusual in many ways. You know, it's David Lynch. Everybody knows what's up with that guy. Sure. So he basically laid out what he says you have to do if you're going to write a movie. So Brian, if you and I were going to make a movie, movie. I now have the template. Okay.

Oh, gosh. Excellent. I'm excited about this. All right. Here's what he says. And we can all decide if we think this is bull crap or we should take it to heart. So here you go. You get yourself a pack of three by five cards. You write a scene on each card. And when you have 70 scenes, you have a feature film. On each card, you write the heading of the scene. And then the next card, the second scene, the third scene, four scenes. So you have 70 cards, each with the name of the scene. scene, then you flesh out each of the cards and walk away.

You've got a script. Okay. God, he makes it sound so damn easy. Oh, my God. He doesn't elaborate on Y70, like why that's the number. But that is like the target, right? They say, you know, shoot for a screenplay that is 100-something pages long or, or there's, you know, there's, you know, there's, I want to say it was even in cherry, brand new cherry flavor. Was somebody talking about a screenplay?

Yeah, Eric Lang's character, I think, said something. That jackass, yeah. Oh, my gosh, I hated him in that so much. Hated him in that. Well, you're supposed to. You were supposed to. Yeah, it was, I really like him as an actor, and so he did an incredible job because I freaking hated his character.

So freaking much. 90 to 120 pages is a typical screenplay. Okay, interesting. So it's the fleshing out part that's hard, though, right? Like, it's easy to say, write them on the cards. Part is going to Office Depot and buying a pack of index cards. If we're going to put all steps in order of difficulty. Yeah.

So if we ever get around to doing a screenplay for anything, I guess now we have a basic structure to work with. I don't know. Thank you, David Lynch. Yeah, thanks, David Lynch. You're a real pal. We appreciate your efforts. And then you've got John, you've got Kyle McLaughlin and Laura Dern on speed.

dial and you say I've got a movie and they say oh we'll be in it that's right he have all your regular actors you always use at the ready unless you're trying to remember his his twin peaks like his his heart of hearing um he was uh agent cooper's boss and he would always yell it was like he couldn't hear anything that anybody else was saying agent cooper i need you to go down to the town of twin peaks and investigate a murder See, that was probably on a card somewhere, you know? Probably, yeah. Oh, Dean Stockwell?

Is that who that was? I mean, Dean Stockwell was on his frequent list, but Dean Stockwell was no longer with us. Was he not the boss, though, that you're talking about? No, no, no, no. David Lynch played the boss, played Agent Cooper's boss. Oh, I didn't know he played the boss. Oh, I didn't realize. Okay.

That's interesting. I'm a very uninformed Twin Peaks person. I've seen like two episodes, so I've never, I don't have this, uh, this connection to that series that most of my friends do, yeah, bums me out. Boy, that last, that showtime re, not reboot or, uh, sequel, basically, there was this one episode and anybody who saw the, the showtime sequel thing knows that one episode, holy crap, yeah, continuation. Really?

Okay. I believe it now. Yeah. Yeah, no, J.C. Cahoon, I know there's other audio. of her saying her name different. I'm saying three days ago, Charlize Theron said her name out loud and I'm going with it. I'm going with it. Don't dig up the past. Exactly. Yeah. We go with a rip from the three days ago's headlines. However she pronounced it three days ago is how we pronounce it. We have an update about Vegas. Brian, you should share it with people. Yeah. All right. So a few things

number one. Talk to the folks over at Player One Bar Arcade. They are happy to have us. That is where we're going to be having our Tuesday night meetups, get together instead of the Pinball Hall of Fame and HyperX. HyperX didn't want to do anything for us, jerks. Yeah, jerks. Because the woman we worked with before who was great is no longer there. And even the owner of Pinball Hall of Fame, as nice as a guy he is, boy, he communicates weirdly over email. Lots of all caps where you wouldn't think all the caps belong. Yeah.

But he's like your mom or your dad, you know. It's like your boomer parents or grandparents running a pinball machine place. It's weird. Exactly. However, the benefit of Player 1 Bar Arcade over Pimba Hall of Fame is that they have food there. They have dinner. And they, you know, from the looks of it, they have really good food there. So we don't need to like split up, you know, let's do this thing.

Now we're going to go, everybody, go off, do your own thing, get dinner. and I'll come back to this other thing. No way. We can all stay together. We can take over the player one arcade bar. And it's five bucks to get in. I try to arrange some sort of deal saying, hey, if we're bringing in like 50 to 60 people, could you waive that cost for them since, you know, we're going to be eating a lot of food,

drinking a lot of booze, et cetera. Yeah. Would they say that? Well, we don't have any group. Sorry, we don't have any group deals. Sorry. That's a shame. Whatever.

So, so anyway, five bucks. And you get to play everything they have. have there, I think. I think everything, most everything is on free play. Nice. I don't know what wouldn't be. Yeah, they should all be, right? Unless there's some specialized machine or something, but they should all be free play. Yeah, but man, if they got an incredible lineup of games there, we're going to be doing the tournament there. The tournament's going to be made up of Battlezone, joust, Asteroids Deluxe, and Wizard of Oz Pinball. We're working on how that tournament will work, but I think we figured it out. I think we

figured out the best way to do it. But I mean, they've got everything. They've got, you know what game I saw on their list that I haven't played since probably like 1987 is Tutankham. Oh, I remember that game. Yeah. That was a great game. I guess it's just called Tutankham.

Yeah. But they've got Tron and Zaxon and Super Pac-Man and Tempest and Street Fighter and Stargate and Space Ace. And we talked about Rolling Thunder the other day. They've got that. Nice. Nice. Cuber.

Cubert's all good. He likes to swear when he gets a hit. He's a swear. Milipede, Marvel versus Capcom. I mean, they've got everything. That sounds great. That sounds great. I guess we should decide this.

Maybe we've already decided this. Can hosts play? Are we able to? Yeah, we're in. We're in this thing. Oh, yeah. You're kidding? I mean, people really want to line up for the chance to take us down.

They want to be the person who takes you down on jouster or takes me down. Unfortunately, we're not playing Tempest or else I'd smoke all of you. Yeah, you would. Was there even multiplayer and Tempest? I should know that. There is. It's not all simultaneous multiplayer. Take turns, right?

Yeah, you take turns. But the problem is that the way I play, I take a long time on Tempest and the tournament basically would be over by the time I finished my game. Yeah, if you're a one-quarter, never-die kind of character or player of a game like Tempest, then you may as well not have that in the competition. But look, if you... Exactly. Some of you guys feel like you got what it takes to...

topple me and joust. I'm ready for the challenge. Bring it on. Also, the Wednesday afternoon thing, we've got the ballroom from 12 to 4, which is an extra hour more than we had last time, which is great. I'm going to have a sign up form on the site probably later today. If you want to bring a game, let us know what you're bringing so that nobody else brings the same game. If you have a tabletop game, board game that you love, bring it. I'm going to put up a list of the ones that I'm I'm planning on bringing. But it's going to be stuff like code names, King of Tokyo, exploding kittens. I've got a couple Marvel games I'll play or bring Marvel-style board games.

I'll make a list of what I was bringing as well. I'm not sure what they are in there. But Kim and I were putting a few things together. So I'll make sure you have that before we go. Exactly. So, yeah, we'll put that up on the list. And that way you can look there and say, oh, cool, they were already bringing a copy of cards against humanity.

I don't need to bring mine or whatever. right okay awesome yeah i know about twister boy this i guess you know we we fully dive into post pandemic times if we start playing uh tadpool twister oh hell no uh you know what you'd have to be a certain kind of drunk to play twister with me i'll tell you that i don't know what that means speaking of which um there will be a bartender like we had last time there will be a bartender in the ballroom um here i'll be completely transparent so we've got a 500 deposit on this ballroom yeah every time you buy a drink that deposit gets taken like a little bit of that deposit goes away so if you buy a ten dollar drink all of a sudden that's ten dollars less

than the five hundred dollar deposit so if everybody in there goes and oh you'll get a drink they'll have beer they'll have wine cocktails soft drinks et cetera they'll have coke and stuff for all you fellow non-drinkers don't worry they got drinks yeah so so we get a drink help us you know basically let's let's eradicate the five hundred dollar deposit with our own beverage consumption. Yes. Even if it's not an alcoholic beverage consumption. Listen, I know.

Noon is early for some of you people to start drinking. Not me, but some of you. Not Brian. He knows the way. Yeah. Yes. So it should be, and listen, if, oh, Zoe says I'm 99% not a non-drinker. That's funny.

What's the 1% Zoe? He just lose it once a year. I know, exactly. Yeah. Is this a Bruce Willis. what's her face blind date movie situation Blake Edwards uh who's the who's the girl wait a minute it was what it was the woman married to

Alec Baldwin I can't I remember her name uh blonde right yes oh my god I can't she was at nine and a half weeks Kim Basinger thank you you got it before Darth Swift he said it oh he said and said it I meet you Darth Swift you you said it right before he said it all right um yeah and and uh who asked a minute ago. If you buy free rangers, if we buy over 500 drinks, they don't give us money.

I asked. Yeah. Yeah. That magic only goes one way. Sorry. Yeah, I tried. I said, oh, what if we do 600? Do you then pay us? Yeah. Even there, the house wins. That's how it works. Well, anyway, that's great. Good update. Check out the Discord. Everybody, all the infos in there. If you're coming, you probably already know about it. If you don't, then go check it out.

I guess it's time for some of this. You talk to Nick. Nope, wrong one. In the news is sponsored by. You'll find quality in our corner. It's time for the news and it's brought to you by. Who stays up late to watch this show almost every single day? Zoe brings bacon. That's who. Big shout out to Zoe. May all the bacon be hers. There you go.

Just a little shout out to Zoe today. A little something for Jeannie yesterday, even though she left while we did it. I know. At least this time, the person of honor was actually in the chat room at the time, so that's good. Yeah, that's the problem with surprising people.

Sometimes they surprise you. Hey, Brian, you know, we've been talking about the Burger King. I got a story about him. You ready for that? Oh, no, we did this yesterday. I was going to say, is this different? Is this new information? Because it looks like the same information.

No, this is exactly the thing. the same. I forgot. We talked about that yesterday. So I will ignore that and jump straight to this one, which is related in some ways. The headline is obese diners to be banned from entering naked restaurant because it will be miserable for the other guests. Yeah, yeah. Already just the word naked restaurant feels like miserable. Like that's the part that makes the... Yeah, you had me at my misery. You can't happen when you said naked restaurant, honestly. Yeah, yeah. Obese diners will be asked to leave. a naked restaurant because it could be miserable

as the words that the restaurant is using. The Amrita restaurant, which is set to open in Tokyo, has said that anyone 15 kilograms above the average weight for their height will not be allowed in there to dine. So if you're really tall, but, you know...

So I need to show up on stilts, is what you're saying. You've got to stack people on top of each other and you'll be all good. This opens on July 29th. they're going to ask guests to check in their clothes and put on paper underwear when they arrive. What is going on with that idea? That's a horrible idea. I know.

I mean, paper underwear. Why not just let them wear their regular underwear, I guess, because you don't know. I'm picturing like that butcher stuff the doctor puts on the little thing you sit on? Yeah, that's what I'm picturing too. Exactly. Yeah, you're going to get paper cuts with that stuff. Paper underwear. Yeah.

Gross. Yeah, oh, this sounds, God, this sounds great. I know, hey, pack your bags. With paper cuts on my nether regions, sign me up. Yeah, Brian, pack your bags, get back to Japan immediately. This is opening. You've got to be there. Anyone who thought it, sorry, thought to be above the average weight for their height

will be weighed and ejected if they're deemed overweight. Those who are asked to leave will not be refunded, they said. Oh, wow. Man, this is kind of hardcore. I don't know how it's legal. Whatever. Mike Miki Kamatsu, spokeswoman for Amarita, told AFP, quote, if fat people are allowed in,

it could be miserable for some guess. Geez. A guest can be, a guest can see the guidelines very clearly on our homepage. We're aiming for a sort of Roman aesthetic, like the beautiful paintings you see in museums, unquote. Yeah. They're clearly visualizing that their clientele is going to be something that it absolutely will not be.

I've been on nude beaches in Miami and on Bandai in Australia. All right, Bondi is kind of the exception. I'd say 60% of the people walking around without clothing on Bundy Beach are people you say, oh, they look really good without clothing. However, Miami, it's probably like 90%. know you really probably should put something on you don't want any of that getting burnt because it'll be even worse yeah i just picture why is it i must i've been thinking about the bird cage lately i just picture a bunch of nathan lanes naked on that beach i don't know why it's in my head though yeah i'm looking yeah i mean boy you look at the uh the photo so there's a photo online of this place yeah oh they've got a picture of it that's crazy let's see Yeah, let me

I'll put Let's see I'll put it in our Discord How's that copy image? Yeah, do that Let's see what you got here I can't wait to see this Yeah

We'll get that mother brain image out of there There we go Okay Oh Well I'm not going Yeah do you want to sit by No By that guy

I don't know where this came from If this is another restaurant somewhere else This might be the London one That just opened Maybe, because I know those people look Japanese to me. No. Not, you know, it could be tourists, but I think it's probably the London.

But still, you're looking at a similar setup. Here, Chad. You guys can see this. There's nothing dirty about it. Yeah, I know. I'm not into it. Also, why is it that a watch or a bracelet makes you seem more naked? I was saying this the other day.

When you wear only shoes, you are more naked than you wear without the shoes. Or like black socks. Yeah. All naked, except for black socks, it makes you look more naked than if you took the socks on. Now, a couple of years ago, you and I and others in Vegas for TMS Vegas 2019, we went there for, or we went to a, what was it called? A pitch black restaurant.

Piss black, dark eating or whatever they called it. I forgot what they called it. Vin Diesel served us food with his. With his freaking Sam Fisher. His nice goggles. So that was a really weird experience. I ended up really liking it, but I understand, it may seem strange, but I understand the allure of it, right? It's in the dark.

It's a very new experience. You've only got your taste buds and your ears, and that's it. You get rid of one whole sense, and then your other ones potentially get heightened as you taste food, et cetera. And I can still see why somebody would say, oh, that's still weird. I'd say, no, it is weird, but it was an interesting experience. On this one, I don't know what you're actually getting out of this. Like, you're just, oh, I'm eating naked, great. Yeah.

Look, I've eaten chicken wings. and there's booms over there. Wow. I mean, that must be it. What else is it? Yeah, yeah, because for me it would be, oh, that guy's got a nice watch. Yeah, I just, I don't know, man.

The whole idea is really not my jam. Yeah. Well, anyway. It wouldn't be out because you're wearing paper underwear, the most uncomfortable, I think the most uncomfortable kind of underwear. Yeah, there you go. They also, by the way, I forgot to mention this.

People with tattoos are also, banned from this restaurant. We talked about the tattoo thing in Asia a bit ago. And the diners are asked to, quote, not cause a nuisance by touching or talking to other guests. Yeah, don't be a nuisance to these. Oh, please don't touch the other guests. Why do we have to have that rule in a restaurant?

What have we come to as a society? Yeah, what is it about this restaurant where we need to warn them not to touch each other? I was just trying to pull her boobs out of the soup. Yeah, that's all. as trying to help not hint not hurt it's lame and all you can you even serve like hot food

like what if you had like a I don't know she's got some miso soup go down the wrong the wrong trip there and you burn your testes that would suck that would be a bullet boobs out of the soup

that is a weird visual it is you know you remember those old it's the old play bowl cartoons. Like the old Playboy drawings is all I visualize with that sort of thing. Oh, her boo. The old lady. Yeah. That's amazing. You know, I submitted a

cartoon in high school to Playboy magazine to see. Did you really? Yeah. So here's how it went. I basically thought you got to understand. This is like 1989, 90, close to 90. And if you had comics in newspapers or magazines or anywhere,

it was because you submitted a million of them and you hope maybe one might take it and they'll pay a 15 bucks for it or whatever. Like, that's the kind of the mode I was in. Because I was going to be a cartoonist, damn it. I was going to make it happen. So I sent one to psychology today. I sent one to Discovery. I sent one to people. Omni? No, not Omni. Omni. I didn't do. Although I think it was Omni was around then, right? Probably. Yeah. Probably was. But I sent it to all these different ones and I decided somebody had said, hey, Playboy pays the most money per comic. You should send one to Playboy.

and so I did and I don't know where this is I kept it but I got a rejection letter from all everybody everyone rejects everybody but I got this rejection letter from Playboy that basically said we are sorry to inform you we're unable to use your comic at this time

feel free to submit more in the future something something something and then at the very bottom says even for the 80s that's a really huge bush yeah yeah pull back a little next time And he says, and then the bottom it says,

your interest in Playboy is warmly appreciated. Yeah, yeah. And I was like, okay. Did you wash your hands after? Like, ooh, put that one somewhere. I kept it, but I don't know where it is. It's in the bottom of some box somewhere. I should take a picture of it.

First question, because this brings up so many. First question, did you send the same cartoon to multiple, like to psychology today, Playboy? Like, was it the same one that went everywhere? It was a whole set. So I had like 10 of these one-offs, like single frame one-offs. I mean, if I'm honest about it, as much as I thought I was pretty good toward the end of high school, I was pretty bad. Like, they weren't good jokes.

They were, the art wasn't great. Like, they were, I was a kid. So I just had this higher idea of what I was doing. So I sent like a set of 10 to everybody. And it was kind of just like a mix of humor. The punchline was basically a fart. Yeah, there was no, probably. But there was no, like, there was no playboy specific.

There was no, like, ooh, sex content for this comic. It wasn't like that, which is I'm sure why they probably didn't do it. But also, they were known for publishing just normal goofy cartoon. Yeah, yeah. And so I was mainly going to them for the money because they were apparently the ones that paid out the most. But I ended up getting one in, uh, maybe it was psychology today. Oh, really? One of those magazines, yeah.

Oh, cool. It gave me 50 bucks. Hey, that's great. That's awesome. Yeah, it was something for the time. But, yeah, that was a long time ago. Fred and Ken Triple X. Here's the one panel joke is Fred goes to the hospital to have can removed.

Yep, can remove from a very, very special place. Here's a story. This is a Vegas story, sort of, not really. But close. It's a gambling story, is what I'm trying to say. A rude person bumped into her, this lady. she got bumped into a lottery machine in California and came out of that deal with a $10 million ticket

totally by accident Brian all this money we're like hey how do we get some money and we need everyone to you know pay off the $500 thing at the deal why couldn't we bump into a $10 million dollar yeah no kidding so the way these things work is you put your money in and then they've got like a bunch of little buttons that you press depending on which ticket you want yeah and so she's claiming that whoever pushed it wrong or she pushed a different a different button than maybe she would have gone for that is exactly what she's claiming yeah i saw this with uh nicholas cage and bridget fonda in 19 uh what was that what was that oh it was the stupidest like they took what was going to be a great name which was cop gives waitress million dollar tip and they changed it to it to it could happen to you oh that's right i remember that story now that's not as

good as that original title. No, original title is way far, far better. Just ask the people behind snakes on a plane. There's no better title for that movie than snakes on a plane. I agree. Well, it's the one, that's the Tom Cruise and Emily Bluntman I like so much. Oh, yeah. Well, live, die, repeat is what they should have called it.

That's the book, right? Edge of Tomorrow, which sounds like a soap opera. Gosh, dang it. What a dumb idea. But that is such a cool movie and such a great source of material. The book is, It still annoys me. Edge of tomorrow.

Edge of tomorrow. Or is it Edge of Tomorrow? Something like that. Or was that? It was Edge of Tomorrow really a soap opera and I'm confusing it. Edge of Tomorrow. That's how bad a title it is. Is that I'm not 100% sure that the title of the movie.

Yeah, that's how you know it's worse. That's right. Edge of Tomorrow was the movie. Edge of Night was the soap opera. Okay, okay. So it is Edge of Tomorrow, though. It is Edge of Tomorrow. 2014 was that movie.

That was a lot. The late great Bill Paxton. I know. He was great in that. What a trippy role. What a trippy role. I want to watch that again. Is it streaming anywhere?

I want to watch it right now. Yeah, that's why. Goodbye, everybody. Have a great day. We'll see you know. Bye, everybody. Here's your own. Do we do it for film sack?

No, but we should. Even though it's good, we should still do it. Yeah, we can do good news. I don't mind doing good movies. That's good. Not streaming. Rentable on, I mean, I own the Blu-ray, but rentable on Apple TV and all those sources. and all those sources, but no free streaming.

Art and Chicken says the original book was called All You Need is a Kill. I thought it was called Live, Die, Repeat, or whatever. No, no, they, that was the tagline. Yeah. And it became such a popular tagline. They made that. They prominently featured the tagline. Like, the edge of the thing still says, edge of tomorrow.

The edge of the thing. Edge of Blu-ray. But prominently on the cover, I think it says, Live, die, repeat. Edge of Blu-ray is a better title than Edge of Tomorrow. That sucks. It's a good movie, though. Yeah.

There's a movie coming out in 2023 called Live, Die, Repeat, and Repeat. Whoa, really? What is this? It's not related to this, is it? It's not like a sequel or something. I heard they were working on that. The movie serves as a sequel to Edge of Tomorrow, which was also titled Live, Die, Repeat, Edge of Tomorrow outside the U.S. Oh, so it was just a U.S. thing?

I don't know what this is. Is it a rumored sequel, says, Cycor? Maybe. I can't tell. It's like. Live, die, rinse, repeat. That's good. Live, die, repeat.

A cycle made a possible of technology, blah, blah, blah. After William, Major William Cage took on the alien race and edge of tomorrow, what's next for the time hopping franchise? out and live, die, repeat and repeat. I really hate that. This feels like a joke, doesn't it? It doesn't seem right. Also, that first name was good. This adding an extra repeat is not good. All of a sudden makes that a dumb time. That's dumb now. Don't do it. Live, die, repeat and repeat. That's terrible. Don't do it. Live die repeat 2X.

Yeah. It's on Tom Cruise's IMDB, everyone's saying so. I, it's slated for 2023. I say, I say BS, but... I'll say I believe it when I see it. How about that? Yeah, exactly. Well, anyway, this lady, her name, by the way, is Laquirede... Lequedra Edwards. Was that how you'd say her name?

Oh, hold on. I'm going to come back after going to I-M-D-B. Lequedra. Lequedra? Is that how it said? That's 60 points on Scrabble. Oh, my Lord. Are you kidding me? What an amazing play that would be. You did a word yesterday that blew my freaking mind. it was all about placement it was a small word but it was all about placement and

it was placement i like had that z or q right on the right place blew my mind i don't remember what it was either i was like well that's a game i'm not gonna win now it's like 60 points or something yeah i've had a couple uh a couple of good ones like that oh cleo thanks for letting me beat yesterday it was a fun game that her and i had i beat her uh anyway uh this lady so she put 40 bucks into the california lottery lottery venting machine at Vaughn's supermarket in Tarzana, Los Angeles County. Sure. And was about to select her favorite scratch-off tickets when someone bumped into her causing her to

accidentally push the wrong number. Mary Elliott of Buckley. Oh, that's something else. Forget about that. He just bumped into me. Didn't say a thing and just walked out the door, says Edwards. Out popped a $30,200 X scratcher ticket. I don't know what that means.

200 X? 200 times. like basically win 200 times your money okay yeah we don't have a state lottery here so I never oh interesting so you know what these are like should I bring you some in Vegas do you want to scratch off some Colorado lottery tickets? Does Vegas have a lottery or does Nevada? God I'd be surprised if they don't right?

Seems like they would right? Things get weird right because I tried to use my bet MGM app while I was in Mandalay Bay which is an MGM property and I couldn't do it because of city regulations I don't think you can use betting apps in Nevada you have to do betting out the counters

Gotcha So that so This doesn't surprise me I was trying We're long story short I was trying to be ready To perform a wedding In Vegas

And it's a nightmare Yeah Because they have this whole Sub industry of trying to make sure A bunch of fake Elvises Get to marry people In their little white chapels On the script

And because of it's that they don't let anybody else outside of the state or even in do it just willy-nilly like i can go to arizona colorado here idaho all oregon all the western states i can walk into them and perform a wedding i have a card to do it it's no problem they all accept it i've done it in three of those states it's all good Vegas they're shitheads about it is a huge pain is a huge pain. It is. All right. Where was I? Oh. Okay, so no lottery in

Nevada. So, if you want lottery tickets, let me know. I'll bring you some. I'll bring some scratchers. Fair enough. Let's see. The feelings turned to joy. She got in her car, scratched the unwanted ticket, and revealed she had won a $10 million top prize. She pooped in her chair, but figured she could replace

it because now she's $10 million for richer. I made that part up. I didn't really believe it at first, but I got on the 405 freeway and kept looking down to the ticket and I almost crashed my car. Well, that'd be no good. I pulled over, looked at it again and again, scanned it with my California lottery mobile app

and just kept thinking this can't be right. The wild series of events occurred in November 2021, but California Lottery shared the story just this month in a statement. I'm still in shocks, says Edwards. All I remember saying once I found out how much I'd won was, I'm rich. That's boring.

Say, I don't know, what else would you say? Eureka! What other dumb stereotype is you say when you get money. Lots of money. So long, suckers. Yeah, one of those are better. Anyway, whatever.

Edwards plans to use the money to buy a house and start a non-profit organization. That's what they all say. Nice. Yeah. I'm sure that's a like a placeholder for non-tax. A way to keep from getting taxed or something. That's what it sounds like to me. Human Foundation.

The Human Foundation, where you to, what was the, they had that on the Rest of Development. They had that great fake foundation. What was that called? The Human Foundation was the one on Seinfeld. I don't remember what the Rest of Development one was. Oh, it was so good, because it was so bad. Oh, I don't remember the name of it. I can't remember it. It was great, though. It wasn't the Human Fund. That was Seinfeld, right? That was Seinfeld, yeah. That was George's fake thing for donations. Donation has been made in your honor to the Human Fund. That's awesome. Yeah, now she'll spend all her money. on one house because the housing market sucks so bad

right now so good luck to her right yeah especially in California geez it's real bad uh Japanese back to Japan for a moment here sure Japanese robot can peel bananas cleanly most of the time this is a big deal that thing in the nude restaurant no keep these two things across Tokyo from each other

you don't want any of that no I promise you that let me see if there's any pictures any bananas too Peel. Bananas detected. Must be banana, not penis. Let's see here.

Researchers, he, Chul Kim, and a bunch of other names, I'm not going to say, train the robot using deep imitation learning processes. It's a bunch of deep AI learning stuff. Okay. They demonstrated the banana peeling actions hundreds of times to produce sufficient data

for the robot to learn the actions and replicate it. The banana reached its success. test rate after more than 13 hours of training while still undergoing more testing he believes the robot training method can be or can teach robots to do different simple human tasks like peel a banana or rip a person's penis from its skin at the naked restaurant he hopes the better trained robots can alleviate Japan's labor shortage problems uh for example at bento lunchbox or food processing factories that the highly they're highly dependent on human labor so that thing is like as you imagine it's like a big gnarly multiple arm looking robot like

could see building a car. We got video if you want to show it. Oh, is there a video? I'd love to see it. Yeah, I put a link to the YouTube just to the right of the link in our show notes. Oh, look at this here. Big thanks to Captain Kipper and Avitech John for posting this. This is not a shock that either of those two fine gentlemen.

Oh, I want to download this video and put it to porn music, 70s porn music. Oh, my gosh. That second peeling is dang. dangerously close to losing the banana. Yeah. I mean, it's a little slow, too, right? Right. Like, part of the reason the music would match.

Oh, what are you going to do? How are you going to the third peel? You can't really do that because it's right where, oh, yeah, you basically just pulled a chunk of banana off. I don't know. I don't know about this. I feel like perhaps this robot is in need of some additional training. Like, I'm holding the banana.

I'm going to peel this part. Yeah, I don't know. I don't think you're quite there yet. They're just not there yet. They'll get there, I'm sure. All right, we're going to take a break. When we come back, our good pal, Bill, will be here talking about the world of makers and stuff. Bobby's out on vacation, so we'll not be talking to him today, but I do have some big email follow-ups to get to after that.

So stick around. Hey, Brian, I don't know. I can do any of this without a music song. Yeah, well, let's talk about a guy named Sean. I'm trying to find his full name here. It is Sean Fleming, but he performs under the name Diane Coffey. I don't know why. I'm looking for information on why he calls his band that,

but the band is Diane Coffey from the suburbs of Aguirre Hills, California, which I've been to, and it's beautiful. This is the follow-up to his album from 2019 called Internet Arms. The brand new album is called With People, and it comes out at the end of this month. Nice. Uh, Diane Coffey, here is the song from that album entitled, The Great Escape. Well, I want to leave this town.

Everything about it keeps on dragging me down. And I might just drown. for a life line hoping that somebody's around. I've got no money, I've no destination, but I've got myself a Nissan, honey. This town, a one-horse-backed, we're upside down, and I am not where I belong. Let's leave today.

All right. That's the show, everybody. We'll see you. I'm kidding. We're going to up the phone lines and give you guys a chance to call in if you got any questions, thoughts, feelings, whatever. Yeah, maybe somebody can explain Swiss tournament style to us. Yeah, what is that. I don't even know what that is.

You guys can tell us. I don't know what that is either, yeah. Yeah, tell us what that is. Tell us about what you would do at a naked restaurant. You know, all these are all. Oh, do you want to see what I'm currently building with my 3D printing? Yeah, let's see what you got. This is going to look extremely, um, phallic until I explain what it is.

Can't wait. It looks like a giant butt plug. So this is... Hold on. Let me park that. Okay, go ahead. Let's see it. So this, you know, it's like, what the heck is that, Brian?

It looks like... So it's on a glass vial. And there's going to be another piece over on this side. I'm going to put blue liquid in it, and it's going to be Super Soldier Serum. Oh, that's cool. This is modeled right after the MCU Super Soldier Serum vials. Love that. Love that.

Did you have to get the tube? I guess you get the tube separately. It's like a... Yeah, these... I bought a whole box of these on Amazon for $12. Oh, my gosh. That's amazing. So I've got like 30, 30 of these glass vials.

So once I'm done with Super Soldier serum, I'm also going to make goblin serum and pin particles. This is a marble bullshit going on over in the Arizona. Yeah, absolutely. Come on. Colorado. That's amazing. I love that. That's really, really cool.

What an awesome project. Yeah. The silver part is, the resin printed. primed and painted. Primed and painted, everybody. Yep. All right. Let's find out who called us

and is on the line now. Hi, who's this? Hey, guys. It's Amy. Oh, hello, Amy. How are you, Amy? I just thought of you this morning. What was they thinking of you?

Oh, I saw TikTok where your husband was goofing around the dog and it made me laugh. That's what it was. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah, he does that. He's a, he seems like he likes the dog.

That's what I became of here. Well, good. I hope so. Yeah. And the dog likes him, you know, he's got a bald head, so the dogs, like, attack his head all the time. Yeah, that's what you get when you got a dog. Well, welcome. What's on your mind?

What's going on? Thanks. So I have a question for both of you guys, since you guys are both over 50 and have done the colonoscopy thing, because I have to do that tomorrow. Am I going to feel like doing the show? Oh, all right? So, wait a minute. Have you, when is it? So you started the liquid today, right?

You're going to do start drinking. I'm on a liquid diet right now, yeah. Okay. And then they're making you do the clean out tonight, right? Like you've got to do the whole hose out the basement. Okay. Yeah. Once you're done with all, that's the worst part, I think. Brian, I think, occurs. I would agree. Well, I would kind of agree. The other worst part is if you've got gas, you do whatever it takes to get it out. So, you know, after your, after your treatment, you have got cart blanche. Tell Chuck, you've got cart blanche to fart like the wind as much as you need to. Let it rip.

Do not hold back. Oh, yeah. Well, I have, I have heard such because, like, they have to kind of inflate the business down there. Yes, right. They blow you up. Yeah, like a balloon. They, like, pump you full of air. They do.

Yeah. And now, in my case, I didn't have any of this, and I don't know why. I didn't have any discomfort or pain or gas or anything after. It was no problem. But Brian, the way Brian described it, it sounded bad. You had a turtle in your bum, though, right? Well, according to this clandestine audio, my wife captured, there was definitely a turtle in my butt. But, yeah, no, Brian, when he told me that, I just thought, oh, my gosh, yeah, like, why didn't I?

And I don't really know why. Kim also had a lot of discomfort after she did. I was doubled over in pain from gas. And then I just started walking around. You kind of lay on your back and you pull your knees in. towards you and that that helps you know do whatever it takes get that air out yeah as long as

as long as that goes okay that you're past the worst of it tonight and as far as so what time is your thing compared to when let's say this is tomorrow so you'll be fine for Thursday you'll be all good yeah okay cool all right I just wasn't sure I was like am I gonna feel like crap on Thursday

and like not be able to do my no in fact you're gonna feel you're gonna feel great is what you're gonna feel Yeah. You basically get a really nice nap for a while. And it's like immediately after, I felt so refreshed and, uh, yeah, I'm like, oh, man, put me back under. That was great. Yep.

And if you, if you, if you. If you, if you. Yeah, exactly. Did you get everything? If you, uh, and by the end of this, like, when was the last time you really had your car, like, super cleaned out? Like, you know, vacuum your car and cleaned it and did detail. and all that that's what they do to your body it's great yeah you're just like a that's what i was wondering is it like like when you go to the dentist you know and your teeth

a little bit yeah yeah yeah like that like you just feel like we got you know got that new totally yeah you got that new colon smell yeah exactly uh speaking of which brian didn't go to the dentist yesterday anything weird i did uh no no i had a really new hygienist that uh i never had before. She had freakishly tiny fingers, so she absolutely found her calling. This was the right job for her. But she honored my wishes of, hey, I'm going to put my AirPods in and listen to a podcast while you do this, but I'll have transparency on so I can hear you tell me to turn and all that stuff. She's like, oh, no problem. I zone out too. I'm like, good deal. Good. No talker. I don't like those talkers. I listen to an hour of 500 by midnight, the Las Vegas podcast.

so that I'm ready for the trip in a couple weeks. Yeah, there you go. Well, Amy, it's going to be great to see you. You're still going, yeah? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I'm excited.

I'm actually, I am preparing little gifties, but they're surprised, so I'm not going to take what they are. Oh, nice. I am also preparing little gifties for all of our, all of our guests that come on the show all the time. You're one of them, so look forward to your gifty as well, which I will also not spoil and tell. I got nothing for any of you so tough.

Listen, you're getting to hang out with me, that's a gift enough. Yeah, that is a gift. It's a gift that just keeps giving. We prefer your presence to your presence. To your presence. Oh, that's very good. Yeah, I like that. That's fun to say.

All right, Amy, take it easy. Be good. We'll talk to you on Thursday. Bye now. See, Amy. All right. If you guys want to call in, we will take your calls here for a minute. Why not?

We usually have a thing to play for it. Call now. You can call now if you want to. 801-47-1-0-462. is the number and we're happy to take your call. Tell me what my next prop, what my next Marvel prop is that I should 3D print. I'm thinking of the, what's the thing that Reed Richard used for the negative zone? The, um, oh, uh, oh, yeah, the, he used it to defeat Galactus. And it was called the, oh, oh, I know, I know. That's going to drive me crazy. Someone in the chat's going to

get this. Or maybe this caller. Let's see if I get it before, yeah. Hi, who's this? Thanks for holding. Ultimate nullifier. That's it. Hey, Guakmar. What's going on, man? Hey, Guakmar. Not much. I'm just yelling ultimate nullifier and phone. Yeah, I had you muted. I wondered if the

caller we have was maybe going to have the answer. But it's nice to have you on. The last time we had you on here was one of our contests or one of our games, so it's nice to hear you outside of that context. How are you? I'm doing fine. I mean, other than the weird dream I had this morning, I'm doing fine. Oh, yeah. I saw this on Twitter.

What was your weird dream? Tell us more. What happened? So I, in the middle of waking up, and for some reason, I saw YouTube doing the show titles for an episode. Oh, I saw this, yeah. It was 11 o'clock in my time, which means you're going into the new episode. Except you had a special guest cover band in the studio to play in place of Brian. Okay. So that sounds like fun, but I don't, we've, never done that. What do you think that means? What do you think that dream's trying to tell you? That I needed a call in today. You needed a call and tell us about it? That's awesome. Well, I'm glad you did.

With the gross of the Swiss pairing, Brian, you can always look at the Magic the Gathering Swiss tournament. They do it all the time for any number of players. Oh, so that's a... Yeah, but see, you can play Magic the Gathering at the same time with a bunch of... It's like, could Swiss Tournament Magic the Gathering all use the same deck at the same time? Because that's the problem. The problem is that... What? They're always different games anyway, I mean, depending on which deck is...

Who's playing what deck, but it's usually... Oh, I know. We were just trying to figure out a way to do it. We were just trying to figure out a way to do it so everybody wouldn't be stacked up on the joust machine all at the same time. Oh, I see what you're saying. And it's stacked up on the battle zone machine all the same time. But I think we've got to figure out. as long as people are playing, as long as each pair is playing the same game,

then it's all good. And, you know, I'm even fine saying, let them play whatever, whatever game they want, as long as they both, both players agree on it. Oh, that's actually a good idea, yeah. Because if you've got somebody who's like, oh, Starcastle's my game, fine, let that be their competition. That's good. I think, I think that's, that'll work. Guakmar, are we going to see you in a couple of weeks?

Are you going? I am not. I must be working because I'm back to the office full time. Oh, that's right. Yeah, a lot of people are right now. Well, we'll think of you while we're having guac. Around there is our local convention. Oh, that's cool.

Yeah, I don't know. I'm going to get extra guac on everything in your name. That's what I'm going to do. Yes, do you have. Go ahead, please, an extra guac. Yep, we'll see you. Marguac, margwak, margwak, please, margwark. Margwak's fun to say.

Marguac. It's wargwark. That number is 801-4-7-1-0. 4662. We had another listener here. Let's find out who this is. Hi, thanks for holding. Who's this? Hello, Scott. Hello, Brian. This is Jayfunktastic. Well, hello, Jayfunktastic. Oh, hey, Jayfunktastic. Hey, I'm on one of your, I'm on your show sometime this week. What am I doing that? Wednesday. Actually, Brian is too. I was calling to see if I could plug those two things with you two guys in them. Of course. This is a perfect time to do it. Tell people what's coming up. It's exciting. So we got next week on the

Nerd Cave Retro show, my retro gaming podcast. You enjoy Scott talking about retro games. He's going to be on my show talking about his top five platformers. Yeah. And I got some good ones, man. My top five platformers are epic and you're all going to want to play. Yeah, yeah. They're real good. Okay. Very nice. Now tell me about the Brian side. What's going on there? So Brian is going to be on my other podcast, the Open Micros podcast on May 11th. Oh my lord. It was just a month after month. of content. Like a month from now. Well, a month from yesterday, really. Wow. Yeah, yeah. No, that's great. Very cool. What do you guys talk about on there? Usually we just, we interview, well,

we talk a lot about, you know, being open to my comedians, but we interview a lot of guests. Like, we've had Stephen Perkins from James Addiction. We've talked to Coronemic. We've talked to Jason London. All kind of people have been on the show. Wait, Jason London is the twin, right? The guy that you worked with on film and stuff, right? Yeah, he's the reasonable one. Yeah, he's the... There's always the more reasonable twin.

Yeah, it's kind of, kind of true, right? And I'm trying to remember what show he was on that I loved so much in the 90s, or late 80s. Well, his brother, Jeremy, was on Party of Five. Party of Five, yeah. Okay, what am I thinking, though? Because I didn't really watch Party Five. It was the one with, she's on C now. Oh, beautiful.

beautiful african-american actress who's always great and i can't think of her name and and the guy the guy or sam waterson was in it and it was like set in the 50s do you remember this oh yeah white white squaw or something like that or white claw like not white claw that's a that's a drink it's a drink uh squall white squall no it wasn't a movie it was a tv show i'll fly away was that it i'll fly away yeah okay it may not be known by a lot of people there's this drama this period drama set in the 50s called I'll Fly Away with Alfred Woodard and Sam Watterson and then that kid

or the time he was a kid. That show actually won an Emmy after it got canceled. Yeah, it was one of those shows where you know like typical major network problem where it's an amazing quality drama but no one watched it because all they wanted was

reality TV or whatever, I don't know. It deserved to go on longer but everybody was amazing in that and I just don't remember which London brother it was. It was in it. And maybe it was both. Maybe they swapped him out. That was Jeremy and both of those. Actually, Jason started his career as Jeremy's stunt double. No way, really? That's great. Yeah. He didn't even want to be an actor. He wanted to be a baseball player.

Well, don't we all at the end of the day? We all want to put baseball. Speaking of Jeremy London, Jeremy did direct my short film, Monsters Anonymous. That's the one. Which you can find on YouTube and at Help the Monsters on Twitter. and I just submitted it to the Smodcastle Film Festival so if people could go follow it on Twitter and give it some love

please we need all the help we can get Hell yeah dude anything we can do to help out our southern our southern people Sounded a weird way of saying that Anyway I look forward to being on your show And I'm really glad you called in today man Take it easy. Have a good one. We'll see you soon

See you man Brian once again 801-4710462 people can call in if they'd like to uh we can take at least one more that would have been about bill's segment long i totally forgot he was there what's with all our friends going to hawai at the same time what's that god i know yeah no kidding they're all crossing over man my sister one of my sisters is over there tara is there right now like all these people i know are in in hawaii why aren't we there is the really yeah that's the bigger question it's not you know why

why is everybody else there it's why aren't we yeah why aren't we part of it okay let's find out who this is hi thanks for holding who's this Oh, hey, guys. It's Ian. Hello, Ian. What's going on? Hey, Ian. Ian's one of the first, like, call-in voices that I remember on TMS, so it's always nice to hear from you, dude. How are you doing? Doing better this week. Last week, the Omicron caught up to me. Oh, no.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. My girlfriend works at a school, so it was bound to happen eventually, but luckily both of us only had it for about four or five days and it cleared up. And now I sound human again. Yeah, that's good. That's really good. I've got a... But it went so quickly for you. That's good.

I did too. I do too. Yeah. I'll tell you what. I got a... I still have this neighbor who's, I think he's 42 now. Dude, still on oxygen. Caught it in early 2020, like the very first variant of this damn thing.

And it's still just limping around, barely moving, can hardly breathe. I don't know what to do for that guy. We're trying to figure out what to do to help. But then again, he works for Homeland Security. He's probably got all the medical care he needs. so I don't know but long COVID man freaking F that noise so yeah I know I'm I'm I'm beyond glad that it that only seemed to hit me you know it was harder that did I was I was two I was two vaccines

that a booster in so I'm sure that probably help probably helped yeah yeah Brian and are supposed to get new ones right aren't we in that that sweet group of over 50s we're in the age bracket it's recommended to get your next boosters yeah I think I might do that not I'm gonna wait until Vegas is over and then I'll do it um where i can really know where my chances of catching it are higher i won't go ahead and wait for that and then and then do it maybe i won't maybe i'll get it before it anyway uh so what's going on ian anything else on your mind you want to talk about uh yeah yeah so i've been i've been catching up on tv the past couple of uh weeks and i started watching the thing about pam which is that new uh that new

Rene Zellweger. Yeah, based on the The woman who killed her Her friend and got away With it for freaking years And was like a Dateline star And Reese Witherspoon stars in it And it led me to

To wonder What your takes on fat suits is Because Wait, is it Reese Wittespin or I thought it was Renee Zellweger, isn't it? Yes, it is, yeah Okay I thought I heard Reese Wetherspoon

Just now Oh, Josh, do have Mel isn't it? He's a handsome man. Yeah. So fat suits, yeah. It can be done well and it can be done poorly. Like the Courtney Cox fat suit on Friends was the most distracting and poorly done fat suit I can think of. That was horrible. Well, maybe compared to like the Eddie Murphy's stuff that he wore for meet the cranks or whatever it was called.

I can't remember the crumps. Nutty professor and then a lot of other stuff. Yeah, yeah, I, um... It's a good use of fat suit. Like, uh, I'm sure there's a movie where it's like, I didn't, we didn't not even realize. I think, uh, Colin Farrell's fat suit in the Batman is, it's so well done. You, it looks like a real dude.

It doesn't look like a dude in a fat suit. He just doesn't look at all like Colin Farrell is the main thing. Yeah. So different. Um, yeah, that's a good, I can't think of any. Um, everyone I can think of as a, is a thing meant for comedy and those, those are always kind of obvious and not well done. So it's hard for me to say, but

yeah, I'm looking at some pictures here. So she's in a fat suit in this thing? Is that what's going on? She is. And it's also like a progressively fatter fat suit, depending on what year they're going with. Oh, really? It starts off at the beginning of the story and then she gets older.

And, you know, they have to, they have to age her appropriately at that point. She looks even more. Meatloaf and Fight Club is a good one. Thor's fat suit and Avengers is a good one. I didn't know meatloaf used a fat suit in Pike Club. I thought it was just meatloaf. I feel bad now.

I don't know. Maybe he was in the shape of his life then. I don't know. It's possible. There you go, chat. There's a picture of Renee Zellweger and her apparent fat suit. I haven't heard anything about this show. Is it good?

Would you recommend it? Yeah, it's better than the reviews would point it out to be. I think a lot of people actually got hung. up on the fact that it's, you know, that it's Renee Zell-Wicker, you know, trying to look like somebody that she clearly doesn't look like. But the acting is actually pretty, pretty well done. It's just, it's such a crazy story that she got away with it for as many years as she did when some of the story she tells about, you know, the guy who got convicted and then, you know,

they found that he didn't actually kill his wife. I mean, it's based on a true story. I can give away spoilers for that. Like, like, it's are ridiculous. like she tells this story about about how he would play a game where he would put a pillow over her head and pretend to

smother her. Oh my lord. As if that's something somebody would actually do in real life. Jeez Louise. Okay. Oh yeah look at uh, so this Pam Hup lady this is who this is about. Yeah. Yeah, that's what it's about. Yeah. Oh, she's serving a life sentence right now. All right. I just, I probably spoiled myself on the

well, no, I think it's well known that she doesn't get away with it. yeah exactly the thing about Pam is that she was very bad at this okay otherwise otherwise it'd be a very boring that's so you're saying that's the thing about Pam is that she's a bad murderer that's what you're saying

yes exactly yeah that's exactly the gay fair enough uh well that's awesome uh always good to hear from you dude hope you're hope you're doing well good to talk to you yep thank you continue to be uh sci-fi because you are sci-fi do that all right let's get to this uh this email I promised

Okay, all right. Got a couple here. This one's from Dan. Dan says, when you or Brian were discovering, or discovering, discussing different movie production companies, title animations. You mentioned the one where the man shoots an arrow through the axes, the one that's like a little off. You're the one that brought that up. Yeah, it doesn't. The proportion, the perspective of the arrow is bad.

It's bad. And I am in full agreement with you on that. He says, I don't know if you recognize the reference, but that was a challenge given to the suitors in the Odyssey. none of them could even string Odysseus's bow to make the shot. Odysseus then fulfilled the challenge while disguised as an old man. I don't remember the company's name, but if an ancient Greek, sorry, but if it, but if it, but it is an ancient Greek basis or maybe something just a big, who's just a big fan of mythology. Anyway, there's some useless trivia for you. You've probably been told 50 times by now.

No, Dan, you're the first one. I didn't know that. Yeah, the company is TSG. that's the movie theater or the production company movie production company I guess it's a film financing entity which primarily funds live action films its logo is a depiction of a man with a bow shooting an arrow through several axe heads similar to Odysseus from Homer's Odyssey TSG stands for parent company the Seelig group oh I don't trust any of those people

no I don't either and you know still bottom line is that that arrow is bad perspective. Yeah, you're going to trust somebody who does a crooked arrow and they have all your money? You can trust that? I don't know. Yeah, no, don't do it.

I don't know about this. Here's Walter. Walter wrote in. Same email address, the morning stream at gmail.com. This is his final word on the fast food question. Oh, okay.

And the pricing. He says, hey, Scott, Brian, Brian, and Randy, oh, ain't wrong show. It says, I had a comment on today's TMS regarding pricing at fast food restaurants. When I go to a chick filet, I always get a grilled chicken sandwich

combo with a kale salad. I do that to try to be healthy, but when you go to the Chick-fil-A, one must get at least one thing that has their delicious fried breading that they're known for. So I not only get the combo, but I also get an additional spicy chicken sandwich

every time, he says. I bet places like McDonald's have paid analysis millions of dollars to find out what person is willing to do what with more money for one product or whatever. This is the whole think about the combo. What drives them to get a combo? They charge less for a combo knowing that a good portion of customers will buy a combo plus the XYZ product, in his case, the extra spicy chicken sandwich. So this is interesting. So talking about saying, all right, I'm going to get

the combo number one, and I'm going to add on a cheeseburger because I want an extra cheeseburger or I want this. Yeah. And I've done that before. And I didn't even really think about it until he sent this email. But I've done it where I've gone, I don't know, McDonald's and got a, and I'm like, I'm just going to get an extra cheeseburger because I'm hungry today. or whatever. Yeah. So I think people do it. I'm trying to think of the last time I've done that.

I always feel like the combos are just fine for me, but I'm sure I've done it. Oh, you know, I probably done at one of these places that said, oh, yeah, give me the Freddy's combo, but give me a small shake as well. Right. Yeah, and I think I've done that too. Because, you know, you're just in the mood and it's on the menu and you're like, ooh, that sounds good and whatever. Yeah.

So they make higher profit margins on the one-offs. So they bring you in for the $5 combo, but they get you on the one-off products. show the Walter. Yeah, I think that's true. Yeah. Thank you, Walter for that. Walter filled us in and did nicely. If you can do that too, if you send an email to the morning stream at gmail.com, that's the morning stream at gmail.com. It's going to do it for today's show. Big thanks to everybody for listening, hanging out and being here with us.

This one is a new discovery that I'm totally. digging. This comes from Itwana

from their EP called The Sunny Side. It's a cover of Learn to Fly. This is David Levin's favorite song, which you made a point of. Oh, really? I didn't know that. I would have thought ever long would have been, but no. I think it's that one, because it's, I think so, because they played it on his final episode

and they had some talk about how it was his favorite song or something. Oh, cool. Well, you got to listen to this one. It's so good. So when you're, I know you listen as you put them in the show, but listen to this and say, dude, this is so my jam. I'm going to do that. I'm going to say that.
