A bugua What? A bugua What? They must be a bugua What? I don't believe in magic The morning stream, there's no such thing as fair in a fight to a death and a thing.

Good morning, everybody. Welcome back to TMS. It's the morning stream for Monday, December 5th, 2020. I'm Scott Johnson, that's Brian Ibbett. Well, hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. I met a guy over the weekend called Cribbit, last name, cribbit. Last name of Cribbit?

Yeah, thought of you. Really? Yeah, just a guy at this restaurant we went to, and his last name was Cribut. And I said, oh, I have a friend named Brian Ibit. He's just missing the Criot. It feels like the Christmas version of Cibbitt. Yeah, the Christmas Ibit. Oh, that's great.

Yeah, everybody, as you've heard of Elf on a shelf, now, try Cribit on a ribet. Yeah, cribot on a nibbit. well anyway that was weird speaking of which uh i i went to a place i've been before but i want to recommend it one more time wholeheartedly because of something i ate there and um can't wait to hear so kim and i had a little date so we're like you know what let's go let's go back to slack water it's this uh this oven baked pizza bar thing place that used to be a black angus before they went out of business and then this independent place came and took it over called themselves slack water and it's really popular and it's really popular

So you want to go at like, you know, off-peak times or you're screwed. It's just really way too many people there all the time. Very popular, very good. Anyway, that place is so good. KT data confirming in the chat. He's absolutely right. So, good. Food is amazing.

So we go in there and I'm like, I know what I want today. I want nachos, and we're going to split that because it's huge. They make amazing nachos. And then we're going to figure out what, like, the weirdest pizza they have here. And then we're going to get that pizza. No matter how weird it is, we're getting it. I love that adventure, adventurousness, that adventurous spirit. Yeah, adventure pizza.

really is what we were after. And so we got this thing on the, the menus all got silly names like a lot of places do. Sure, sure. They had something on there called the, I guess you'd pronounce it, Euro trip. Euro trip, yeah. Or some people say gyro, but they're wrong. Sure, but they're wrong, unless they're talking about the things that you dig up in Animal Crossing. Yes, or, you know, a copter.

Yeah, the originally Mario thing. Where were gyros? Gyros, I think that's an originally, I think that's straight up just Animal Crossing. That's original Animal Crossing? I think so. They've shown up in other stuff since, but I'm pretty sure that's where those came from. They kind of annoyed me in the early. Actually, they annoy me now.

I don't like them. Those gyros bug me. But anyway, it's called, yeah, gyroids, that's what they're called. Gyroids, that's right. Yeah, okay. I knew it was close. Anyway, the thing's called a Euro trip, and it's spelled G-1. Okay, before even, I was going to say, before you even say what's on there, can I guess?

Go, go. Give it. All right. So I'm thinking the obvious things, right? It's going to be a shaved lamb that's been a little rotating spigot. Correct. So far, correct, yes. Tzziqi sauce. Oh, yeah. Drizzle all over the damn thing.

Is it's Zizi or it's that other sauce, that other sauce that they use? Well, it's like a yogurt-based, like the traditional, whatever the traditional thing. I think they called it in the chat, or in the chat, in the menu. In the chat room. The chat room sure called it that. The chat menu. Not tahini. There's another Greek sauce that they usually put on Euros.

Taziki. Okay, you did have it right. All right. I think it is Taziki, yeah. Anyway, what else? Cabbage? No cabbage. No cabbage.

I don't think. Was there something? I don't think so. What else? Oh, probably tomatoes. You've got to have tomatoes in here. A little bit of tomatoes, yeah. Now, not a tomato base, though, which is, you know, you don't want that for your thing.

So it's actually, um, Most, well, okay, so I don't know what kind of cheese that was, but man. Probably feta, right? Oh, it was so good. I mean, you'd think so. You'd want some kind of Greek-y kind of deal. But it was amazing cheese, and then Greek cheese. And then they had little, the one ingredient you're missing is little cucumber, chopped cucumbers all over that.

That's what somebody said in the, yeah, diced tomato. Dice tomato ironically said cucumber. Yeah, and there are no diced tomatoes on this. No, that's a good point. I forget about, God, makes me one a euro. there's a place there's a place over here called Bada Bing

and no they're not a strip club owned by a guy who talks like this is a Carmella Gabagoon Carmella Carmella Um

Where's fat Tony But they do pizzas It's funny It's like an Italian Greek fusion Um Oh interesting You know

This ain't no sit-down Tablecloth place It is a takeout pizzas and euros But they're Oh, and burgers. And all of it is really, really good. And all their burgers are like Italian and Greek influence.

So it's like a feta cheese burger or a Greek pizza. And it's like, oh, it's all so, so good. That sounds fantastic. Well, that's what this was. This was like eating. They cut it up into like nine slices. And I'm telling you, it was like having nine euros just there for me. And it was so, I cannot recommend this enough.

It was so good. I'm getting that again when I go back. I recommend slack water to anybody. And if you're like, Wayne, I live in the valley, where is it? It's over there by a south town mall near, you know, sandy-ish on the east side of the freeway over there. Amazing. It's so freaking good. Now, you got to ask you, though, nine slices?

I don't know what it was. It was like. How do you do? Like, if you're, every time you cut, you're doubling the number of slices, potentially. Let me think about this. Well, I guess not, actually. you're only doubling up until the until the final one, right?

And then you start, yeah. But it isn't always even if they screw it. It's always even. Is it even? Well, I mean, you can, you can cut a pizza odd if you just go to the middle and stop with a... Oh, right. You couldn't, yeah, but if you went the whole way, you're right, it's always going to be double. If you go across every time, it's always going to be even.

Yeah, you're always adding two. So it's probably eight or ten. All I know is I felt like eating all of it, but Kim wanted her share, of course. We split it because it was too big. have been fat, and by the time I left their faith, the whole thing myself. But it was so good. And that's where I met the guy named Cribbett. Cribbitt.

Oh, he was there at that place. That was where he was, yeah. We went to a Christmas party, and it is down in Castle Rock, which is halfway to Colorado Springs, which is, you know, kind of conservative town central. It's where, uh, conservative Bergen. So Stephen King lives in Castle Rock, right? Just kidding. Continue.

He just writes about it. He just, he's entertained by it. That's all. All right. Yeah. He gets his castle Rock Entertainment. So as a friend of mine

is actually one of my oldest and longest friends from high school. He and I met working at a Taco Bell, went to different high schools, met working at Taco Bell, became friends and I've known each other ever since. And he is,

he's on the conservative side. I don't think he always just votes party line. Like a lot of us, you know, don't do. He doesn't just vote Trump and. right down the line.

Because I don't think he cares much for for Trump or Pence or anything like that. But we were so worried going to this Christmas part because it was going to be a lot of his friends and a lot of people who lived down there and in Colorado Springs coming up to it that it was going to be like conservative town central and we were basically going to have one foot

out of every conversation to like say, yeah, well, you know, everything's so woke these days. Go that way, go that direction. Like take our plate of food. in our wine and pivot and go to another these freaking catchphrases modern political catchphrases can eat

a dirt chode I hate it you know what I'm going to say dirt chode every time someone says woke they're going to say awokeism I'll say dirt chode and then pivot and walk away no couldn't have been a nicer group of people we hung out there we actually got pinned in the kitchen by

groups and and couldn't go over to the table that had food on it the only thing we could do was keep refilling a wine glass, our wine glasses. And so we're like, I really need to eat something now, Tina. I'm like, I'm going to die. Like, I'm going to die. But I do that thing, and I'm sure you do it as well, where somebody asks you what you do.

Yeah. Oh, God. And you haven't had a chance to kind of feel them out to say, do they, you know, what's going to be their take when I say podcaster? So I'm like, oh, you know, I'm a graphic designer, web designer, and audio producer. Oh, audio producer. Like what's that? I said, well, I do podcast. Oh, my God, I love podcasts.

What podcast do you do? And I'm like, okay, well, none of the ones you've heard of. Exactly, exactly. Do you know Adam Carolla? No, no. Do you know Joe Rogan? No, no. We know they invented podcasting.

No. No. nah we know that guy so uh this is a funny this is actually a really great question do you feel like if you can suss out people's familiarity with technology it's probably a little easier to explain what you do for sure for sure and there's certainly an age thing right like you know at a certain if somebody under 30 asks me what i do i'm way more likely to say podcasting than if it's somebody over 60 yeah right yeah yeah yeah then i have to say well i i do stuff on the internet yeah i do things on the internet then you have to explain what the internet is

and how you have to do things oh can you fix my phone yeah i i don't know how i did it but the front of it is blinking 12 o'clock this happens to me all the time so so you're just you talking about this gives me these i hate this feeling the PTSD of having these conversations i just hate explaining it to people so like usually what i'll do like one of my dental assistant asks and she doesn't know anything brand new dental assistant. She asks, I'll say, I'll start like you did. Like, yeah, I do kind of a combination of commercial art and audio-style production. Oh, like on a station.

And then it starts. And you're like, no, why did I say that? It's exactly what Bush Potatoes just said. You don't just say you host a radio show? No. No. You kidding? Because then it's like, oh, really where, you know, AM, FM?

Internet. Seriously? Then it sounds like all of a sudden that that bold step forward now is like eight steps back because you have to say, no, it's a radio station on the internet. It's like, oh, so like five people listen to it. Yeah, they don't. And then they, I don't know, it just doesn't go anywhere good. And it doesn't go anywhere.

And by the end, they think, well, that's really cool. That's really neat. But they don't know what you're talking about. They don't know. No, no, exactly. And they always say, oh, okay, the morning stream, Coverville. I'll check those out. I'm like, okay, what are the chances?

and so I'm hoping that the person who said he was going to check out the morning stream today is really checking it out and hearing this story. Yeah, I'm going to start. I'm going to start. And they often do that. They'll say, oh, I'll check that out. He tuned in as soon as I started saying it was a conservative party. He was like, oh, okay.

Yeah, that's where he went. Oh, they've tricked me. These woke liberals have tricked me into listening to their show. Oh, just saying it makes me sick. I hate that word so much. easily could have been a room full of people lean more liberal or more centric you know easily could have been you know nobody brought up anything that would make us think one way or the other so it's just a big assumption that we make that that oh

we're down there we're in that part of town oh the red epicenter it's usually how it goes though right you get yeah yeah and then they say so is it on spotify I'm like yeah I think So, I think they did, I think they did take my show and put it up there without me having to do anything about it because that's, that's how it has to be. Some people always ask me, it's like, oh, can I get this on, you know, whatever thing they're listening to? Oh, can I get this on Apple? I'm like, yeah, you can. Oh, yeah, can I get this on Spotify? I think so.

Stitcher? I don't know. Stitcher's still a thing? I think so. Stitcher still around? Ooh, they annoy me. The stuff they used to do to people, they would take your shows without your permission. They would then add ads to it without you having any involvement.

And then they would also... Or getting any revenue from it. Yeah. And they also compressed everything down to like 64K. Yeah. It's garbage. Yeah. Stitcher sucks buttholes.

Exactly. Yes. Moving on. Yeah. Hey, I got an email from a listener. This is great. This is, oh my gosh, I can't wait to play this. So, all right.

So we get this thing from Frank Weary. Is that how you'd say his name? A whirl? We were this close to a squirini. I think, Whirl. I think Frank Worrell. Oh, that's an L, not an eye. Yeah. I got an eye for some reason. All right. He says, I'm so close to a squirini, though. I can almost taste it.

I know. You could let us never speak of that movie again. Here's what he says. Says, Dear Safe Crackers and Bullseye, or Safe Crackers and Bullseye. That's weird. He made me multiple. Anyway, you recently were discussing the Price is Right and mentioned how Cliffhangers was the thing he thought of first,

the one with the little yodeler guy going up the thing. Yeah. Yeah. That reminded me that there was once a contestant who could yodel, and Bob had a ball with him. And then he sent me a link to it. He finishes his email by saying, keep up the good work, entertaining us, peepo's, Frank. You haven't heard back from the guy you emailed you with the typo, the pipoo typo, right? No, we haven't. But I don't know if he knows this, but I think he's entering like that.

I don't like bees, and I can totally see why you like it. That kind of realm is where he's entering. Yeah, that territory. I know. I just would love to hear back from him. and you know and have them say oh yeah all right you know you guys gave me a hard time but you know what i've turned into a meme i'm fine with that yeah you're in the higher you're in the special uh VIP room of memes that we have on the show so congratulations on that yeah um anyway here

is i'm going to play this audio so this was an episode of that thing this was toward the end of his of bob's run as host and uh i'm just going to play the audio check it out right now walter what do you believe is the price of that pottery wheel just the Pottery. Tell me, Walder. $25.25. Is that right? No. Now, he'll move one step for every dollar you missed the price. Wait, wait, I like, I don't want to wish him bad luck, but I wish it had gone. That was Walter. That was not, you know, do that again.

Right, this old guy is having a time. It was freaking life. Like, he was really into it. Some great 15 minutes of fame there for that guy. It made me laugh because he was way over-excited. I mean, I'd show the video, except I feel like YouTube would pull me down for it. Sure, sure. But hearing Bob Barker again, that was such like, when you were sick,

well, at least when I was sick and home from school, that was, like, I was sitting there with a bowl of soup watching Price is right or orange juice or hot tea. or something. Yeah, that was the deal. There was nothing else on that you cared about because everything else was soap operas or, I don't know, what other daytime talk show, Donahue. Like, who's, no kid wants to watch Donahue. Back then it was Donahue, right. Yeah. Yeah, we don't want that. We want the yodel guy. That's what we want. Yeah, exactly. Give me the game shows. Yeah. If I was ever sick, that is exactly what I would do quite often. You kids today, you don't even know, man. You stay home from school sick. You got your phone. You got Netflix and a thousand other streaming thing. I won't know how easy you've got it. We had four channels to choose from three before Fox came along. Yeah. I guess if you counted the PBS station and the syndicated Andy Griffith and leave it to Beaver Station. Yeah, that's true.

We did have that. Whatever. You know what we don't have. What do we not have? You don't have my soul. My soul is still going on, Scott. Oh, no, Brian, what the devil has kept your soul. Oh, it's too bad.

Still no soul. And I talked about this on couch party, but I'll just briefly touch on it here. Uh, I heard from both Kia, consumer services and the dealership. Yeah. And, uh, Kia denied the, uh, denied the claim because of the, the gaps in Carfax that I can't show oil change proof for. So, uh, so, uh, so it's out of pocket. This repairs can be out of pocket. So now's a good time. If you want something 3D printed, let's keep this 3D printer going 24-7 for the next three weeks. Yep.

Increase your TMS patron, uh, limit let's get some stuff bought off brian's Etsy store uh yeah i'm you know i was thinking shit i'm not going to do a go fund because i kind of hate that but if you do want to donate and buy something 3d printed like go find a model you like of something and then make a donation it's all totally 3d printed you'll make you all kinds of 3d items yeah you want to do you want to jack nichols i finished painting jack by the way oh nice oh he's done he's he's finally finished fully painted it's so good yeah that's freaking great your color works great. What did you do with the back? You decided to leave it?

I decided to leave it. There was really no reason. It's just going to be facing the back of the bookcase. But I do like, you can see exactly where I stopped and said, why am I continuing to paint? Yeah, it does have that look. This is the line of like, you can say, you can look at and go, oh, decision was made here. Right here. It's where that decision was made. Exactly. Yes, that's where that's where I decided. Well, it came out amazing. It looks really good. And currently it's printing a Magneto helmet, my, my Cobra Max, a full size. print in i would say in one piece but the little ornament thing that he has on his forehead that little horn thing that prints is a second piece but the actual full wrap around helmet is

printing in one piece this is a comic representation not a movie uh this is a come you know the the movie was so close to the comic but yeah i think it is based on the um on the comic because in the movie i don't think he has a little diddly do like the oh you're right you're right i don't think he does he has mostly the rest of it though is pretty accurate it. It feels like kind of like Captain America's little wings. It's like why they don't put those on there sort of thing. Yeah. Yeah. But anyway, so that's printing right now. 60 hour print and it's on hour number 42. So at about hour 55, we should see spaghetti going all over the place and something knocking it off the print bed and. Perfect. I follow this account of, I should send you this, this 3D printer on TikTok. This guy just has a camera trained on his printer. Yeah. And he has it in, I don't know, five times speed or something so it's you know because prints take forever right and his whole account is nothing but mess when it's messed up so okay good so it's just videos of when things go right but it's usually like when it's working he'll do that thing and he'll play like the good

theme to Jurassic Park okay and then as soon as the string start going blah and becomes a spaghetti Monster, he'll do that like Piccolo version of a recorder. Some terrible like, you know, harmonica, off-key thing. It's great. It's really great. Next time I run into it, I don't even think I follow it,

but every time I see it, I think. When you run into it, sent forward one to me, and I'll follow that guy. I'll follow him to the ends of the earth. Tell me about your giant line and your 20-degree weather and all that business. Yeah, so if you listen to the film sack, if you're a film sack,

you might have heard me talk about this line. So I went early, early, early Saturday morning to Whole Foods. They had like five Whole Foods in Colorado that are selling these. There's a radio station here that for the last 34 years has been selling what they call the Studio C CD. So it's the Studio C of Colorado. They bring bands in who either perform an acoustic version of one of their songs or a cover or whatever. And it's always like, you know, great people. like the fits in the tantrums and Cage the Elephant and Dave Matthews and Squeeze and Torrey Amos and people like that.

And they have a very limited number. They have to do on the CDs. They can't legally sell them digitally. And when they run out, they run out. And if you happen to grab extra, those sell for big money. So I went and got my six of those, waited in 20-degree weather in this long, like, hour and a half line. I wasn't even sure if I was going to make it back in time for film sack. So, needless to say, Tina, still sleeping when I leave the house.

Of course. And I have an iPad stand that I use in bed that it's got like four legs on it that basically, like, if I'm laying down, it sits on my chest and then puts the screen, not that close to my face, but like at an angle, you know, so that it can, like a T-stand, I think is what it's called. All right. This is both hilarious and absolutely something I expected you to own. This is perfect. For sure. And what I didn't realize, you know, when I got up and I grabbed my watch and my phone and then I unhooked the iPad just to put it in the other room.

Actually, I took it with me in case I was going to be waiting in a really long line and I could, you know, do something on it, but I didn't. Apparently when I set it back down on the nightstand, I didn't realize it, but one of the legs was on top of the button for our, We have an adjustable head and feet on our bed so that we can prop our feet up if we need to or prop our head up and, you know, sit up and read or whatever. But Tina can't sleep with the bed raised up, the headboard, and unfortunately, or the head of the bed raised up. And it's like, God, it'd be so much more comfortable for me when I'm watching something before bed like I shouldn't do. Thank you, Wendy.

Right. But, you know, once in a while, you fall back. Once in a while. So I accidentally put the thing on the button for the feet. And then I, you know, basically had my coat on, and I headed out the door. And I had my ear pods in, too, because I was listening to music. And I didn't hear Tina saying, Brian, Brian, Brian. Or more like, Brian, Brian.

Because apparently it was like slowly raising her feet up. Oh, no. She couldn't, like, turn to get over to where the remote was until it finally stopped. This is an amazing movie scene sounding thing. Yes, exactly. Like you would have folded her up like a taco if she hadn't gotten out of there in time. But yeah, it's basically like she's like trying to turn and get her body twisted to where she can get over to my side of the bed and turn out and hit the remote.

But the fact that it's like bending her feet up, she can't get leverage to turn and move over. Oh my gosh, that's great. Yeah. If she's listening, Tina, I'm glad you got out of that. That sounds like it would have been... She got out of it alive, so that's the important thing. It would have been a real, real scene there, had things not going your way. Well, good.

Well, I'm glad that that worked out for everybody involved. It worked out very well, yes. We are going to turn our attention to Brian Dunaway for a moment. Yeah. Not because he's, you know, rigorously handsome or any of that. But it doesn't hurt. No, it doesn't hurt. It doesn't hurt anything.

It ups our listener count with his... sexy sexy voice yeah it's like having it's like having our own little supermodel runway model uh on the show it's very exciting join us now in welcoming Brian done away to the program hello Brian oh hi Scott and Brian

oh hi what's going on man how are you guys doing on this Monday morning oh you know Monday of December it was a weird morning actually I'm honest the dogs were weird weird the weather's weird um there's just a lot going on i don't know today kind of today didn't start great i woke up today

going oh my gosh how am i going to get all this shit done and then the show chills me out i get on here and i just kind of go oh dude if you're if you're a maker or a podcaster or do anything like that where you're creating content or creating items the first week in december is freaking insane because you've got to plan all of your holiday stuff off time as well as fulfill product. Yeah, it's bad. So true. I got to ship a bunch of stuff. Our store, we had a little, we had a quite the sale for Black Friday, and now we got to ship all those things. It's just a lot going on. I want to get it all out on time. It's wonderful time of the year, but it's tough. I got gifts for

all of you guys, all my friends and co-hosts that need to get their ass. They need to get their ass out the door so they're there before Christmas, all these sort of things, you know? And then the dog bar. I got you something too. Oh, good. Yeah, sure you did. You don't ever need to send me anything. It's totally not going to be exactly the the thing that you sent me, the thing that I send you. Of course not. No one needs to ever send me anything. But the point is like all of that and then the dog

ralphed in the living room. So it's like, hey, I got the most basic human need to get rid of dog barf as well as ship a bunch of packages. Oh no. Why is there? Why did I put some prints on the floor? What did I do? Oh, no. Oh, yeah. I don't want those two worlds to

collide. Oh, my gosh. That'd be bad. Hey, can I tell you about my pet peeve about this time of year? Do it. Sure. you is scott just said something that annoys the crap out of me you don't have to send me anything and the reason why is because as you get older the special part of christmas is the giving and when someone says eh don't bother sending me nothing like stop still in my joy you can have whatever joy you want dude look i'm just saying i don't need anything that's all i'm saying

well of course you don't need anything christmas is not about giving you the things you need i know Tax season is about. I know. I'm just saying, I don't, I'm not a, I'm not a, I hate the pressure of it on other people. I don't mind it on me. I just don't want anyone else to feel pressure about it. Do you, do you know why you don't mind it on you? It's because it's part of the Christmas, uh, is, as a capitalist, it's part of the Christmas spirit.

Yeah, the Christmas spirit. Wayne, I was told there was a war on Christmas. What are you talking about? What is this about? I don't understand. That's just, that's, you just, you were talking about earlier about the woke movement. That's just another buzzword to make. Political catchphrases.

Political catchphrases need to die, honestly. We should do a whole list on the show and then burn them an effigy. Yeah, I'd love to do that. Remember we had our hate word that we didn't like every day, like, you know, Synergy and moist and stuff like that. Ooh, you don't like synergy? That's not great. I don't like synergy.

Are you saying you like North Synergy? Yeah, I got it on my shirt right now. Sure. Synergy. Shut up. Pure synergy. Oh, man. Is that a shirt from the misinformation society?

It is. It is. Nailed it. I was just thinking about those guys the other day. That's too funny. You brought them up. I was in the mood. I was like,

oh, I'm going to go back and listen to that album. Got all the Star Trek people in it. Anyway, they really want to know what you're thinking. That's true. I want to know. Here's what I want to know.

How's this contest today going to work out? Who's going to win prizes, damn it? Oh, gosh, you know, I actually have an explanation. Let me get to it. Welcome to the morning. Half-Sas is a trivia. where I'm actually going to be giving Scott and Brian the answers. I've got a category

and six possible answers. Three of those answers are correct and three of them are Bunko. Depending on how confident you feel with the category, you can provide one, two, or three guesses, but if any of those guesses are wrong, you get zero points for that round. Guess one, get it right, and you get a point. Guess two, you get two

right, and you get three points, get three right, and you get five points total. The player with the most points after three rounds wins the prize for their contestant, and I've pulled contestants from members of the tadpool that aren't able to listen live. Scott, you're going to be playing for Mike Pacholic in Ontario, California.

Oh, home of the old podcast. That's about the only thing in Ontario, California. That in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper. Sure. Which I went too many times. Brian, you're going to be playing for Sean Allred in Charlotte, North Carolina. Very nice, close home. Yes, I'm in Montreal all the time.

A fellow podcaster, a fellow, an A&TP. contestant, one of many shons that we had in the most recent season. What's funny, the Allred name is really famous around here. It's a big, like, they've been arrested a million times, but they're like a big polygamist family. Oh gosh,

really? Yeah, and my brother-in-law, Ken, his last name is Allred, and he's not polygamist, but he's from this family line somewhere and he's connected somewhere way back. And when I talk to him, I refer to him as, because there was this whole thing about

the leader of that group got killed in a standoff with police or something years ago. It's an old story. But I always call him slain polygamist leader Ken Allred. I do it all the time. And so now we can say Sleem polygamist leader Sean Allred. Boom. Oh, good. Yeah, I'm sure he'd love that.

Well, hopefully he wins these prizes. Let's get to your categories. The first one, we're going to go to sports because I know how much you guys love sports. Question number one, what are the tournaments in tennis's grand slam? So, you know, you've got tennis's Grand Slam. It's made up of a bunch of different tournaments. I want to know three of them. Your choices are the Canadian Open.

That's right. The Canadian Open, the U.S. Open, the ATP Finals, the Australian Open, the French Open, and the Winchester. The Winchester, that one replaced the Frank they used to have. That's right, exactly. And it does not perspire. No, never perspire. All right. I think I know I've gone with three because I'm feeling bold.

Oh, you're going three? Yeah. But I'm going to go three too. I feel bold. Look at you. I go three. I go three. Uh-huh.

Guess what? This must have been too easy because both of you got it right. Yeah, the U.S. open, the Australian open and the French open. What's the Winchester? Is the Winchester real or do you make that up? Yeah, that is another tournament, but it's not a, it's not part of the Grand Slam. I thought that was going to play tennis even?

Is that? Oh, sure. do. Sure they do. Canadians. Don't they? Oh, is Winchester? Oh, the Winchester Dog Show? No, that's the, is that the Winchester Dog Show? Well, I thought maybe you meant what, uh, what, uh, oh, shoot, what's the WDoh Tennis thing in Britain, uh, the, the Wimbledon. Wimbledon. Wimbledon is, uh, Wimbledon. Yeah, I thought maybe that was just a misdirected show is that one. That's the West. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's, that's when everybody's ugly at the, at the tournament. Yes. Yeah. So when I saw that, I thought, oh, he's trying to make me think

Wimbledon, but really, it's just to throw me off? Well, I could have put Wimbledon in there, and you might have said that. That's true. Very good point. What's the ATP finals? What's that? I don't know. I don't know. I'm not even going to pretend that I know that. I would have seen, just because

the way these questions are usually written, that these are actual other real tournaments. They're just not part of the Grand Slam. Well, I'll bet you, ATP is America's top podcaster finals. That's what that is. Oh, that's right. Just the current top podcaster. There's no...

Exactly. But they're playing pickleball. They're not playing tennis. Right, exactly. The ATP finals are... It's the season-inning championship of the ATP tour. It takes place in Turin, Italy. That says nothing.

You just said nothing. I could have guessed that. Features the top eight singles players and top eight doubles teams based on the results throughout the season. So it is a... But I don't know what the ATP stands for. Advanced Testicle. Tennis people.

Tennis people. There you go. Advanced tennis people. Advanced tennis people. Because that's really what you'd have to be to play in those. All right, let's get to question number two. And I think for this one we'll do music because I like music. Name the songs in this list that contain the word Beelzebub.

You have your choices of Don't Fear the Reaper by Bloister Cult. Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. You're the Top by Cole Porter. sympathy for the devil by the rolling stones full circle by the birds and kite by Kate Bush I only know one for sure and I think exactly

and that one's easy right yeah that one's a gimmie but the other one I'm not sure so I'm going to just choose to have the devil put aside for me for me by the way I just want to make a note here that we have never been tied up at five before at the beginning thing this is crazy

high scoring him already so far you guys are both locked in, Brian, you chose Bohemian Rhapsody. Scott, you, uh, you took a chance, took a chance, took a chance, chance on me, by Kate Bush, and your chance paid off. Yeah, kite by Kate, oh, I almost did kite. Oh, well, circle by the birds, all contained the word Bielzebub. I was hoping one of you would fall for sympathy for the devil, even though you, he lists all

the other names for, uh, for the devil, Christopher and that one seemed too, too much bait. Two on the nose. Yeah, I can't, I can't see him saying Bielzab, above anyway. It's kind of a tough one to pronounce. Yeah. You can't really rhyme anything, especially now. All right, well, you guys are doing great. Six to eight.

You, Scott. Come down to this one right here, and we've got movies. Movies. Oh, I like movies. Movies. Words surprisingly never mentioned in these movies. So which of these movies do not have that word mentioning them? Mafia in the Godfather. Zombie and Night of the Living Dead.

Christmas, and It's a Wonderful Life. Superhero in the Incredibles, Nazi, and Raiders of the Lost Dark, and Beatles in a hard day's night. Three of these correct, eh? Hmm. Three of them are correct. Three of them are incorrect. Three of these answers are doing their own thing. In other words, three of these have that word mentioned in the movie.

Three of them do not. And we want the ones that never do. Okay. Correct. Let's make sure I got that. Yeah, I feel pretty good about these. I'm going three. wow oh wow wow

i'm feeling it look i'm feeling emboldened by my early performance yeah i'm i'm i'm i'm excited i don't know why i just feel the i feel the fire why did i do that unclick one you automatically can't lose two i know i didn't actually must have freaking unclicked it with the crap i can't unlock it for you mafia oh man oh you unpicked mafia you should have kept it because mafia is not mentioned in the godfather damn it zombie comment is not mentioned in

in the Living Dead. You both got that one right. And Beatles is not mentioned in It's a Hard Day's Night. I almost chose that one. Indiana Jones does say Nazi at some point. Someone says it at some point. Oh yeah. He definitely says Nazis. He says Nazis. He says Nazis, yeah. In Lost Ark, I don't remember. I remember saying it in the third one. In the third movie, he says

Nazis. I hate these guys. Yeah. No, no. He says it in Lost Ark. Does he? Shit. Well, I hate him too. Nazi sucks. In any case. You end up winning. because I ended up clicking, I must have hit my space bar or something because I was hovered over top of it. Yeah, but look how close it was.

Eight to seven? Oh my gosh. I know. And if Brian would have kept Mafia, he would have won. And of course Christmas has said in its wonderful life. He runs down Main Street going Merry Christmas, Medford Falls Savings alone. Merry Christmas, Bedford Falls movie theater. Yeah, that one

was obvious to me. Superhero and Incredibles, I thought, maybe they just said hero. He says, doesn't Samuel Jackson, where's my superhero suit. Yeah, he did. He did. No, you're totally right.

Like, that would have, that, that's why I hesitated. He says, where's my super suit? He says, where's my super suit? Where's my super suit? But they definitely mention superheroes. The kids say it. Who does, though?

Syndrome says, if everyone's super, nobody's super. So he just says super. Heroes don't wear capes. I've heard that. Yeah. But that doesn't have super in it.

The boat says that a lot. I want to say the bad guy says, where's the line? um that's syndrome what's a stupid name syndrome yeah yeah um he says when everyone's super no one's super that's his big thing apparently elastic girl says superhero says serenax okay probably talking to her kids about why it's okay and probably yes exactly well in any case scott congratulations you won i did it by a single point woo how can you mean wrong one congratulations you're the winner that's right congratulations on that you're gonna get this

stuff. Brian will now reiterate, and you just got to send him. No, you have his contact. I never told you what these people won. So, Mike, you want a copy of Army Men, RTS, real-time strategy, as well as a copy of Railroad Tycoon 3. But Sean Allred, you want a copy of Railroad Tycoon 2 Platinum. So I don't know. What's better, 2 Platinum? Or just boring old 3? Well, who knows? Maybe they're close to each other, given the disparity. I think so, yeah. I don't know. I didn't want to give both Railroad Tycoon to the same person, though. I thought that that would be kind of... I've only played three.

There's a whole bunch of railroad time. They're very good. The three was very good. I assume two is also very good. I have to assume. I would assume so, too. Yeah. You want to make your own railroad

thing? Good news. We're sending you both that. Both of you could create your own railroad thing. That's right. Brian's got your contact data, so he will send you those directly. Brian Dunaway, you and I,

tomorrow night are going to sit down and have a Christmas month discussion about old video. games and in this particular case we're going to be oh go ahead go ahead drop it oh I was just going to say we're going to talk about the dragon warrior yeah Dragon Quest for those in America you know it is Dragon Quest

series and the rest of the world knew it as well I guess the first thing was Dragon Warrior here though right that's yeah Dragon Warrior in America it was released in America as Dragon Warrior the first four because of the first four because there was already a property called Dragon Quest yeah it's weird it's weird how that all went down because now it is Dragon Quest

and it's still a very popular series. Eleven's an amazing modern game, but we're going to talk about that early, early NES stuff and the impact. So back to some JRP goodness for those of you who have missed it on Play Retro, tomorrow night, 3.30 Mountain Time right here at frogpance.tv.

If you want to get the podcast early, head on over to frogpance.com slash play retro. Brian Dunaway, is there anything else you'd like to share with us today? I can't. Bye. All right. Did he did that one?

I did that when I wanted revenge. Nice. I got it. My vengeance was mine this day. All right. What time is it? Oh, we got time for a quick news story. Let's do this.

Where the hell is it? Right here. Let's do a little bit of news brought to you by. Two-chair mall lady. So there's a lady that was in the mall, and she wasn't particularly large. She was kind of average. A middle-aged lady. in the food court as I'm walking past

and I could not help but notice she's sitting on two chairs and she's with people she's not saving anything she's just got two chairs under her bum and I don't have a good explanation for why she wasn't she's plenty she could have easily fit in one chairs what I'm trying to say

sure maybe hemorrhoids maybe she didn't want maybe she needed that space between the two chairs for some sort of to air out the hemorrhoids that's good to air them out Or whatever you do with. I don't know.

You just want them to be... Yeah, that's weird. That is weird. Yeah, that was really weird. I don't know. I couldn't figure it out. I kept looking back at her thinking maybe she's going to move. She never did.

She just two chairs. All right. Check this out. This is pretty gnarly for a person who's bar certified. An Ohio lawyer is accused of tossing a poop-filled pringles can into a parking lot of victims' advocacy center, this place in this parking lot. Now, I'm, I understand that, you can't stoop. I understand that people have beefs with people and they want to express themselves. I just would never think of getting a Pringles can and filling that thing with freaking feces.

That's a, you know what, though, that's an interesting technique because it feels like you could, it'd be a lot easier to fill a Pringle's can than like a Ziploc bag or something. yeah i would think so too right yeah and you could yes that's a really good point it's well it's that that metal you know it's a more contained perhaps a stiff thing that you can uh this just i'm just handing this to clara on i yeah good thing good thing uh we don't have uh you know the the um tms mashups anymore yeah jamie to to isolate these things but basically you've got a a a solid tube that you can hold on to to poop into as opposed to like you know holding a bag open Yeah, because I should mention this is his feces. This guy, he didn't take...

Oh, right. Actually, we didn't... Yeah, he didn't go get a dog and do that, which would have been... That would be much easier, right? I agree. Plus, it's a free. It's everywhere. People don't bag up their stuff anymore.

It's all over the place, but no, he wanted to use his own. He put it in this potato chip can and then tossed it into this place. It's called the parking lot of the Haven of Hope Victims Advocacy Center in Cambridge, Ohio. He did this just last month, November 20... Oh, no, it was in 2021. but they just registered the complaint like last week that's weird anyway uh the executive director of the center michel wilkinson carpenter saw uh blakesley this is the lawyer throw the can from his vehicle into the parking lot uh and it landed close to her car uh she then sped or sorry then

the car sped off into the geroonzie county common pleas courthouse to attend a pretrial hearing for a murder defendant he was representing so he's like all right i'm I'm going to throw my tube of poo, and then I'm going to go be a lawyer. I'm going to go be a lawyer, like, you know, one right after the other. That's just heinous. That is, okay, so we're talking about the benefits of doing that. But the drawback to throwing the Pringles can is that there's probably a 75% chance that that can is not going to open when it lands. Good point.

It might just stay a sealed can of poop. Yeah, you'd have to have either greater distance or higher force or to guarantee it would pop. Or put the lid on precariously or leave the lid off. But then you worry about, you know, about stuff falling off as you throw it. You've got to really throw it correctly. Yeah. Well, here's the thing. He pleads guilty to disorderly conduct and littering.

Both of these things are misdemeanors. Littering. In connection with the incident, according to ethics complaint, he paid a fine and court costs. Now, fine, that's all good. Whatever. Those are the laws. That's the fulfillment of the process. I get it.

How is he still practicing law? I just don't think you should have a guy who throws poo in a can. No. Doing anything, you know? Your Honor, may I bring up exhibit number two, please? Yeah, exhibit number two. Your Honor, I had to drop a couple of kids off to the pool in a can. No, doesn't work.

But I don't understand how you remain on the bar after this. Yeah, no, well, and he doesn't, we don't know if he did. He left, he threw it, and then went to go be a lawyer. at this other thing, but that doesn't mean that once he got caught, that he got to keep his lawyering privileges. Well, and they don't say, you're right. They don't actually get into it, but maybe they didn't. I mean, Dice Tomatoes are like, well, lawyers can break laws, too.

That's not what. Dice Tomato. If they break certain laws, they're out. That's how it works. So if they murder a person, they don't go, well, I'm just, I killed this guy, but I'm going to, I'm going to go through the process and do the court. But then I'm going to go represent some more clients. You can't do that.

Have you been injured in an accident? Get Jack Allen Blakesley. He'll fight for you. And if he loses, he'll still throw poop at the... That's right. At the car of your accuser. And he'll do his own poop. I make his own.

That's right. It'll be his own. He puts his own poop on the line for you. Yeah. Do you hear us pee-pooh? That's what he's doing. That's right. Just the poo, not the pee.

Tice Tomato saying, Murder is a bit stronger than poo flinging. I agree. But are you honest? arguing that that guy's fit to represent people and or prosecute people under the law after he does a thing like that. I don't think he is. Listen, I, you know, there is a certain type of person out there who maybe isn't just happy getting a settlement from a case. Maybe also want some poop flung at the, uh, at the plaintiff. You're not wrong, I guess. So, you know,

he might be, there might be a certain sector by which he will still continue to practice law because of this as opposed to in spite of it. I just wonder what the line is. If that's not the line, what is it? Like, is it, uh, if you hit the lady, if you, uh, did this more than once? You watched the entire season, better call Saul and, uh, you can see some things that, uh, would get somebody disbarred. That's true. Except he always gets around it. Yeah. I don't know. I feel like I also don't know enough about the story. Maybe they did. Maybe he is. practicing now. I don't know. They don't say. LC Knights says any conviction for a felony is an almost automatic disbarment, but misdemeanors are often not a major

offense. So, but now he's going to... Disorderly conduct is not... But now what happens now? It's like, does he... He is now known as the poop poop can throw in lawyer. So... Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I guess you don't have to

get disbarred for that, but you're not going to get a lot of business now, probably. I don't know. Maybe you are. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know what's going on in the world. It's all left up. The state of Florida versus Pringles. He'll get that case for sure. I'd like to call the Pringles guy to the stand, a guy on a mustache.

Pringles poop lawyer, yes. Yeah, that'd be awesome. All right, we're going to take a break. When we come back, Stephen Schlecker will join us. We've got a little major spoilers to discuss. None of it will truly be spoilers, but you get the idea. So that's coming up right after this break. Brian brought music.

He is a rising hip-hop artist, and this is his brand new single called Is It Worth It? He's touring with Call Me Charisma, and before you think, oh, you know, I'm not a big fan of hip-hop. This is more like that 21 pilots kind of hip-hop, where it's not, you know, full into Dre or, you know, Snoop kind of level, but more like the like white guy white,

white angsty boy hip hop Yeah, kind of Yeah, not quite M&M but,

Stephen Schleiker. Stephen Schleiker. Ah, that laugh belongs to the guy who just joined us via Skype. No, this isn't Skype. Discord is what we use now. Hey, it doesn't matter because Hayes, Kansas is own. major spoiler zone, Stephen Schlecker joining us. Hi, Stephen. Oh, I don't hear him. Muted. Hello, Scott. Oh, there he is. You're not muted now.

Hold him knows how to hold him.

How's that? Oh, hi, hello. Can you hear us? Hello? Say hello after I say the word hello. Ready? Hello. Hello.

Oh. That's not bad. That's not bad. Which hello was it, though? Now I don't know which hello he said hello to. Hello. You're looking for. I think you're good now.

Stephen, how are you? Let's try it. Remember last week when I said, hey, I'm going to find out in three days if I'm sick or not, guess who got sick? No, no. Oh, you're a whole arc of being sick and getting better. So you had it, you had it and you're better already? Oh, yeah. Oh, well, you do sound good.

What did you have? Just like the cold or something? I don't know, some kind of cold. You know what I did is I stayed hydrated. Oh, that'll do it for you. That totally helps. Oh, man, I almost hung up on it. Did you do a COVID test or anything just to make sure?

No, no. I was at home all weekends. Yeah. So what is it, man? When you said stay hydrated, I almost hung up on you because I have like muscle memory. for that. Well, anyway, I'm glad you're better. I'm glad that that's a thing. I'm still, this stupid cough won't leave me, although I will say, so here's a COVID update for you. My COVID deal in the middle of November took until pretty much film sack was the first

time I stopped feeling like levels of fatigue. Yeah, I was going to say, and you sounded great no hacking and coughing, maybe a little bit, but. Usually only when I laugh. If I laugh, I cough. Yeah. I can't help it. That'll probably stay for six months. But but the um so no funny no funny business you guys no nothing funny or else i'm going to cough um but you know the uh the the the fatigue part which sucked royal eggs uh finally lifted some i'm not going nuts or anything and like running marathons but uh it does feel better to not be so damn tired all the time good anyway uh well stevens good to have you here we're going to dive right into some stuff that's going on in the world of pop culture comics and more for example indiana

Jones has a title. It's still taking me a minute or two to get used to it because it sounds like the soap of destiny, but it's the dial of destiny, right? That's all I think of is dial soap for who is why. Do we lose Stephen? Is he still here?

I think we lost him. Oh, well, he's not responding. Maybe some connection issues, I think. I'm looking at our connection. We are solid as a rod. We're full green, full green bars. Yep. He just went full gray. So that means yeah let me let me ring him again ring while we're ringing for him I I'm I feel I feel like just in the oh he's

is he back Stephen you back hello I'm just I'm just all problems today that's all right you got some connections stuff it's all right maybe your internet has a cold I don't know ah that's probably it it probably has a virus yeah go virus yeah when you're done here go hydrate your router or something I'm like yes I will do That I will submerge that thing. Yeah, why not? A Dial of Destiny. Yeah, how do you feel about that title?

Sings how we don't know much about it. It, you know, it leaves a lot of mystery with it. Some of the imagery that we saw in the trailer does kind of look a little Greekish. So maybe we're looking at, what is that, that antique Aetheria mechanism, the dial that they found in the bottom of the ocean. They still don't know what that is. Oh, right. There's something new for me to 3D print, by the way. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that'd be really cool for you to do that.

Then Mads Mikkelson, who plays the bad guy in it, said that his character is a man who would like to correct some of the mistakes of the past. There's something that could make the world a much better place to live in. He would love to get his hands on it. Indiana Jones wants to get his hands on it as well, and so we have a story. Okay. Is this a time travel? I'm a little worried about that because they're also talking about Harrison Ford de-aging technology, so they're going to do a bunch of... last week and if you saw in the trailer they do have a couple of shots of him d age yeah looking young

and so i i'm worried now okay like that worries me i don't mind well brian you're a critic of bad time travel movie tropes i am yeah i i i'm thinking that we're seeing flashbacks i'm thinking we're not seeing time travel oh i hope you're right i really hope we are i know i know but but no if you time travel you don't oh i guess it could be mads that time travels right so then we get same age mads in the time of young indiana jones maybe it could be or maybe indiana jones needs to go back and correct the mistakes he made with short round all those years ago

the mistakes he made with the crystal skull let's just make that whole movie disappear i'm not even gonna i'm not even going to i'm not even going to go near that damn atomic bomb refrigerator thing yeah somebody it was a veronica somebody to ask is gonna get caught in a uh what she said it's like some other appliance this time or something like that like i i've i worried a little bit that the wounds of of crystal skull are fresh still for a lot of us run deep yeah um but a nice big scar for a lot of people i will admit though they kind of got me with the tone of this trailer it got me excited so it feels like the third indiana jones movie from it and and look i'm more excited about phoebe waller bridge

yeah she's great mad's mickleson than i ever was about shy aloof and uh and carin allen for was the last one. Sure, sure. I agree. I also, I like James Mangold as a director. He makes, yeah, Mangold makes amazing movies. He made Logan, one of my favorite movies ever. I like James Mangold.

I think he's the guy that you would want to give the keys to here. And I think he, you know, he's talked a lot about using a lot of practical effects, which I respect, even though this de-aging stuff is the opposite of that. I like Mangold. So for me, this is a, in Mangold, I trust. kind of issue and um we'll see how he pulls it off i don't know what's the what's the release date is it summer of 23 it's this summer is when it uh comes out i want to say that there's three trailers that released on friday and they all i think are june and july are when these movies come out

i think the guardians might be may but i might be wrong i think they are kicking off the oh yeah yeah yeah they're like one right after the other it's going to be a very exciting summer. You know what I'm excited about? That trailer makes me think we're getting a load of, um, uh, Rocket origin story. Oh, yes, the, the Guardians trailer for sure. Like, we're going to see, because the, the baddie in that is, is the high evolutionary who's responsible for Rocket getting torn apart and put back together multiple times, like you said in the first movie. Right. So, uh, that's, never, never thought like, all right, who's going to be the bad guy? Well, okay, probably Adam Warlock and we do

see a little bit of him, but never would have guessed high evolutionary as an as an MCU bad guy. Yeah. Here we are. It's interesting choice, but I'm excited about that. Now, Stephen, you wrote here, is anyone excited about Transformers, basically Beast Wars? The answer is yes.

100% dude, I'm so excited about this. I keep making the movies. I keep making the movies. So that's good. And I will say that if you watch the trailer, the CGI, what are they called, the Granimals or whatever? The Granimals. transformers. They certainly look a heck of a lot better than the animated series years ago. So you're totally right. But here's the, okay. So this is my, my pitch for why people should

be excited about this. All of the Michael Bay stuff kind of sucked. All right. There was moments, but for the most part, it was pretty bad. The best part of the Bay movies, as far as I'm concerned, was that they brought the voice of Optimus Prime back. And Peter Cullen got to do his thing again. And I love that. So that, to me, that's the tranny achievement of the Michael Bay movies. Go back to 2018, the movie Bumblebee, which is still in canon and still in world, is not Bay anymore. He didn't write it or direct it. And that is a legitimately good movie stands on its own.

It's great. Bumblebee is a great movie. Jump forward. This is the same director, same writers and producers doing this. They get to bring Prime and the Gen 1, you know, bots in and everything. but at the same time they get to dip into this Beast War stuff and man I could not be peeled away from Beast Wars back today I loved it loved Beast Wars so much told me about the pedigree about it being in the bumblebee uh director then it's like okay then helps right I've moved up to oh I'll totally see it when it's on streaming on a service that I already own yeah it's it definitely helps like to know that for a lot of people for those who like this legitimately if if I mean I could be

totally wrong and they'll blow it. But this is enough for me to want to see it in a theater. That's how much I want to see it. And that's weird for me because I usually don't care. But I actually am really excited. No, Mark Wahlberg. Yeah, that's fine with me. Goodbye. Like, honestly, I think I see my last transformer. The last one

had, what's her name, Hawkeye Girl? Yes. I love her. Kate Bishop. What's her name? It's Haley Stainfield. There you go. She was great in it. And it was the perfect mix of don't have too much human,

have just enough, but then focus on robot things. This needs to do that. If they can pull that off, I'm telling you, Optimus Primal is a badass. All right. One of the, and it's voiced by freaking hellboy, what's his name? Oh, yeah. Ron Perlman. Perfect for Optimus Primal. Although in the old

show, Beast Wars, it was voiced by Peter Cullen again. But anyway, I was kind of hoping he would be able to get double duty. I kind of did too for a hot second. Both voices. Yeah, I think it'll be fine, though. I'm not worried about it. But yeah, like I'm, maybe I sound a little overly excited here, and I hope I'm not disappointed, but I'm actually really jazzed about that.

So we'll see. Good. Good. I'm glad. Don't let anyone take that away from you. Thank you very much. Good news, though, for Blue Beetle fans, we have a release date. Tell us more. What's this about? Oh, Blue Beetle in theaters August 18th. Now, for people that don't know who a Blue Beetle is or what a Blue Beetle is,

there's several Blue Beatles that have appeared in the DC universe over the years. The one that this one is going to be focusing on is Jaime Reyes, who a scarab, you know, this thing falls from the sky, a meteorite. He goes and checks it out. It's this scarab that attaches itself to his back, and he becomes infused with this alien technology from this, I forget what the name of the races. I want to the Qajida or whatever.

And, oh, no, I'm sorry, the reach is the name of the alien race. And this kid, a young Hispanic kid living in El Paso, has to juggle being, you know, a normal, everyday kid with normal everyday woes and also being a superhero and interacting with that universe. And I've said it before and I'll say it again, I really think Jaime Reyes, the Blue Beetle, is DC's Spider-Man if they do it right. I was thinking more like a Deadpool for the like an even funnier than Spider-Man kind of level. But maybe, maybe I mean, Blue Beetle's never been about the comedy though, right?

Yes. He's, yeah. Yeah, he may be thinking of Dan Cord, uh, blue, or Ted, cord blue beetle who would be more of the Deadpool break the fourth wall bwaha ha ha ha laughing the entire time this kid is just like I've got this a giant alien bug infused on my back and I'm a superhero falling to earth at 3,000 miles a second well how did I get here you know kind of thing and and so I think it's going to be a really lot of fun they wrap production of this a while ago we do have to wait until August of next

year to see it. And I'm down for it. I, I, uh, very excited about this. Is this, uh, James, James gun no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, hands on for this. This is no, he doesn't have any say on this one. So this is, pre James gun. This is, I mean, unless they brought him in, knew that he was going to do some replacement and just said, hey, what are your thoughts on this? But as far as script and release date and all that stuff, that was decided before he took over. Well, it is interesting. This era of DCU has, the most successful stuff has been the obscure things or less less, less mainstream thing. So like Shazam, Shazam was a bigger hit than people thought it would be

Black Adam. Black Adam's, well, no one, people don't like Black Adam, but you know what I mean? They don't. They made money, but I didn't see it. I did see Black Adam. Yeah, what'd you think? It was okay. Yours was more the horrible movie theater experience of like 45 minutes of trailers before

Black Adam. That wasn't Black Adam. That wasn't that one, but I agree yeah, I agree with everyone who hates Black Adam and I also agree with everyone who love Black Adam, because everybody is right on what they like and dislike about that movie.

Yeah, they're correct about all of it. A solid C. The, uh, it's streaming over at HBO Max. Isn't that soon, right? This week or next? Black Adam? It's out and it should be out now because I got it on digital this week. Yeah, definitely rentable. I don't think it's, uh, stream

streaming though. I bought it outright. I bought it outright on Apple on Apple, so I'm sure that it's available on HBO Max. Here it is. November 22nd. I can't have a lot of time. There we go. So it looks like it just happened. Yeah, but my point is like, you know, suicide squad, well, James Gunn's suicide squad

was a big hit. So I feel like the smaller stuff is, in a way, going to be the way the DCU digs out of things. In a way, that's what the MCU did because they didn't have access to Spider-Man and X-Men at the time. So what do they do? They dipped down in B-tier. None of us think of them as B-tier now.

Nobody goes, oh, Thor, B-tier. We look at Thor and, oh, my gosh, A-tier. Well, they made it that way. So D.C. could do that with Blue Beetle and some of these, like, lesser-known things, you know? Like, Doom Patrol is hugely popular. It's all so obscure as shit, you know? Yeah. I kind of like that. I like that they're doing that.

Anyway, I was going to make another, I was going to ask you one other thing about Blue Beetle. What was it? What was it? So I used to listen to the old radio serials because I'm weird like that. Yes. And they were all from like the 40s. That would be Dan Garrett Blue Beetle. Yes, Dan Garrett Blue Beetle.

And those are really fun and old and dumb. but they always reminded me of like alternate Batman kind of yeah do you think because he's rich right and he's got a bunch of cool he's a rich adventure so Dan Garrett rich adventurer explorer uncoveres the scarab and an Egyptian tomb and does

things with it yeah then turns blue and gets to be a beetle did Dan Garrett was he also a flash as well or am I thinking of another Garrett you're thinking of a Garek with a K at the Eric that's sorry okay oh easy mistake actually it sounds like the same name on the Langlois Lane exactly so okay the only other thing i wanted to mention this isn't in our list today but i saw

some stuff from jasonamoa where he has asked reportedly has asked james gunn to be lobo if they make a lobo movie oh wow that'd be great now if they do that great i'm in he's perfect for it 100 percent that's your guy but he's also aquaman in the same DCU how do you how do you reconcile that you've got I mean it's not the same universe but you had Johnny Storm and Captain America the same universe

I mean it's like first Superman and the returns there was also the Adam on the oh Brandon Ralph the formerly known as the Arrow

Arrow show that became the Felicity show Brandon Ralph yeah he he I would do I would love a Lobo movie oh my gosh dude Lobo's great yeah Lobo's great how's the last time anybody rid Lobo like a Wolverine

kind of sort of loud mouth loudmouth Harley Rider yeah bad ass anti-hero just cool as hell I mean Jason Mamoa if you follow any of his socials and you see him when he's not doing his actor thing and he's just hanging out with his motorcycle

friends you can totally see him as lobo 100% yeah it needs to be somebody bulky right couldn't be uh darrell from walking dead no uh has to be somebody bulkier and gotta be a beefy dude because that's lobo's whole thing is being just monstrously big and then who's that spinoff there's a spin-off character it's like his daughter or something i really like her but i can't remember oh yeah yeah i forget what her name is um lobo junior mebo mebo it's probably lady lobo or something Lady Lobo. I don't remember. Lobo lass.

It's probably a little Lobo last. Oh, that's so Silver Age. I love it. They should do that. Well, anyway, these are all, this is all exciting stuff. And as always, I get all my exciting stuff from major spoilers.com, as you should at home as well. There's also plenty of content, a bunch of content coming out of that place. Stephen, why you tell us about some of it?

If you were trying to figure out what to read this week in Comacton, tomorrow morning, we release all the sneak peeks for comics coming out this week. and I'm sure you're going to find something that will strike your fancy. Nice. I think you turn me on to a comic that I want to make sure I have here. Hold on. Let me see if I can find it. I read it because I saw you.

We did that one. Yeah, well, it's one you posted on Twitter and I went, that looks like something I'd like. And then I went and got it. And now I don't remember. I have COVID brain on this thing because that's when I read it. Hold on. It was.

Oh, here it is. Okay. So let's do it by date. Yeah, there we go. Um, was it you that listed, yeah, uh, do a power bomb. Did we talk about this already? Oh, yeah. Do a power bomb is a wrestling, uh, comic, right?

Yeah. Like super, it's got supernatural stuff after the first issue or so, but it's great. It's so good. I really like it. Art's fantastic. It goes places, I think, do a power bomb's awesome. And I've only read the first four issues, but it's quite good. So anyway, a little side note there.

Stephen's always influencing my comic reading habits as a result of him existing. Anyway, Stephen, is there anything else you'd like to share with this before we go? Well, like I said earlier, if you do feel a little down, you're feeling a little sick, make sure you stay hydrated. That's a great idea. By now. See, Stephen. Hey, I want to throw a quick update out there for those of you who listen to the Thursday shows and enjoy Amy's segment. She is headed back into surgery right now for her procedure.

She's feeling mellow, according to Chuck, and ready to go. So she's high. Yeah, he said high in parentheses. I love that. I love it. You know what? This is great. If you guys ever have...

Having Chuck as the play-by-play guy for his wife's surgery, one of the greatest things in the history of the world. Anyway, keep reading. For sure. And so the whole procedure should take about three hours, the yeetting, the he itress. Yep. He calls it the yeaterus, which is amazing. The uterus, because he yeats. uh anyway but uh so uh he'll keep people posted if you're if you're in the the discord you can

check out updates there and uh we're sending out our cool tadpool vibes for a uh speedy uh procedure no complications and a quick recovery so he calls it let's see the uterus and ham hawking the urethra franklin yeah hammicking oh hammocking i thought i read it is ham hawking that's why i was going to ask i was like what does that mean that's a whole different procedure uh That they did on nip-tuck. You don't want to get ham-hawked? Oh, man. No, no.

That was Dr. Doom went and hem-hawked people on nip-tuck. Oh, I always forget he was Doom in those that movie. Oh, it's easy. It's good to forget. It's really good to forget. It's really bad. We don't see that guy much anymore. Either of those nip-tuck guys.

No. I wonder if they just, they spent all their energy on that and just said, that's it. We're done. Get offers now, and it's like, wait, I can't do a show about plastic surgery that's 30% nudity, forget it. I'm out. Forget it. I don't want anything to do

with your dumb show, they say. Well, anyway, congratulations on successful surgery, and I hope she remains high as long as she needs to be. All right? That's what we hope. Thank you, Chuck, for the update.

Quick text from a listener. We're going to play this real fast. This came to us at 80147-1-0462. It says, Hi, Scott, and Brian. If you had to eat a famous person, who would you choose? Or who would you chose?

Who would you chose? And high was spelled H.Y. I don't know. Maybe take your time there, Conrad. Okay. Like, Mr. I'm a great speller. Let me scroll up. Well, I can definitely spell high. I can tell you that. Anyway. You can spell high. Conrad D. asked this question. Who you want to eat, Brian? Paul Hollywood. Oh, my gosh.

Imagine, because he's got a sweet, creamy center. Yeah. He's just the right amount of fat to have some good marbling, but not be overly fatty. and so you know the outside would be savory and the inside would be sweet interesting that's pretty good yeah you got you got the meal and dessert

I'm going to go with uh um ronda rousy wow you don't think her meat would be really tough I think it would be well that's a good question

I feel like it's just really good healthy meat you know like lean quality well sure they'd be very lean yeah but you're right though if I want like a if I want something I don't know and yes I would stay away from the soggy bottom I think that's a given with Paul Hollywood no always avoid that don't get this or his sponge or whatever well anyway Conrad D that's a weird thing to ask but thanks I hope you're not an actual cannibal it's ironic though I watched a movie about canals over the weekend and I watched a

I watched a 10 episode series about a cannibal that could have easily been four episodes I think Oh, I know what you're talking about. Domber. Like an actual. You've already recommendaled it, so I'm not, there's no, I'm not saving it for a recommendal because I, I'd recommend it, but with some, some, uh, some caveats, adjustments. I'd say, episodes one, two, six, nine, ten, I think is where I'd say. Yeah, it's overloaded.

You're not wrong. It is. The whole, the episode all about Niecy Nash's character, that's a must watch. She is, she is fantastic. And if anybody gets an Emmy nod from this, it should be Niecy Nash. Although Evan Peters was great, too, is the only person apparently in Wisconsin with a Wisconsin accent. Don't know how that happened. Yeah, that was weird.

He really nailed it, but nobody else talked like him. Nobody else did, yeah. Richard. Even Richard Jenkins was great, too, though. Yeah, he was really good, I thought. Yeah. And Molly Ringwald? Yeah, she was good.

Small role, but she was good. Small role and Penelphian Miller. Like, it took me, it took Tina saying, that's Molly Ringwald. I'm like, no. Really? Oh, my God, it is. She's not applying lipstick with her bra. Weird. But, yeah, you're right about, what's her name again?

The Reno 911 lady? Oh, Nisi Nash. Yeah, she's amazing. She is amazing. Someone told me she was from that, that she was the Reno 911 lady. I couldn't believe it. I blew my mind. It's such a different, like everything that she's done since then is so different than the 911 stuff.

You have to respect it. It's really good. Yeah. Anyway, there's that. let's move on to some quick patron notes. We've got some new people I wanted to mention. Oh, Katrina. We got Katrina Dios.

We got Kurt. I think it's Catarina. Catarina. Oh, geez, sorry. Catarina Dios. Thank you. Kurt Rikin. Rikin?

I think I would say Rican. If it's German, you always pronounce the second of the two vowels. Sure. The I. Nine? I mean, nine. What's the opposite of nine in German? How do you say yes?

Six. Oh my gosh, that was a terrible joke and it got me right where I needed it. That was amazing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah on nine. Let's see, Brian Buntz. We got Kevin Minal and finally Rob Blander. These are all brand new people and we love them and we want them to know that. And part of the reason they joined was this pre-show content we do every day.

No, not that. Well, maybe it's the no commercials ever. Not that. Well, maybe it's our couch parties on the weekend or the art in the mail or the other benefits you get from the thing. Maybe it's all of those things. Could be all of them. Why not all? And they, you know, be like them as what I'm getting at.

So join up today. It's a brand new month. Time to hop in at patreon.com slash TMS. Again, that is patreon.com slash TMS. Get there today. It's frogpants.com slash TMS for everything else, except for the following song that Brian will now play. What do you got?

Well, yeah. So this one's going out to a voice we haven't heard on the show in a while, but he's still out there. Kevin from Ann Arbor. Hey, Kevin from Ann Arbor. He says, hi, Mr. Coverville. This is for my wonderful wife's 32nd birthday.

She loves singing Disney songs around the house, and even though I hate Disney musicals, maybe you can find something we both would like. Thank you. Love the covers, though. Kevin. Nice. Well, excuse me, I do have something that you would like

because it's a Disney song that doesn't come from a Disney movie, and I feel like that might be, you know, if I stay away from the musicals and give you a Disney song, maybe that's kind of the halfway point. What if I made it? Skah, what if I made it two and a half minutes long?

Did any of those things trip your wires? Well, let's get to it then. This is Real Big Frisch. Frisch. Real Big Frish. It's too early for a Frisch sandwich. Real Big Fish from a 2002 tribute called Dive Into Disney. It's a song that's called Baroque Hodown,

but everybody knows it better as the theme to the Main Street Electrical Parade. Very nice. Well, let's play this. By the way, is Kevin our, I don't like Bees guy? It is, right? I think so. I think that's our Kevin, yeah. Yeah, we should thank him for that every time we talk to him.

I don't like real big fish. Frisch? You don't like big fresh? Oh, man. They wanted more fresh. They wouldn't give us any more fresh. All right. It didn't look like the kind of fresh you'd want to eat.

That's right. Well, we're done. Thank you all for being here. We'll be back tomorrow with more. We'll see you then. Welcome to all the people are people, Magic King Nam is with
