Starting point is 00:01:10 It's the morning stream from Monday, February 6, 2023. I'm Scott Johnson. That's Brian Abbott. Hi, Brian Abbott. Hello, Scott Johnson. Hello, welcome. Happy new week to you, sir. Yeah, man.
Starting point is 00:01:19 Monday, it means fun day. It's time to start it all off again and get it going. Whippity-dudah. We woke up to horrible snow, and I don't love it, because today was the day I was going to take. I was going to go jogging with the dog, but I ain't doing that in the snow. It's ice and snow. It's freezing.
Starting point is 00:01:33 Not doing that. Are you guys kidding me? Tell her to just poop in the house. It's totally fine. Poop in the house and you're good. Yeah, by the way, how are all our Texas listeners? I hope you guys are okay. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:46 Horrible ice and stuff down there. Twice in like one season for these guys just getting hit so hard. Yeah, you got hammered. You're just not built for it. You don't have the pipes for it and you don't have the street cleaning stuff and all that. You don't have the de-icing. Literally, you don't know what to do. And we know this because when you come to our towns and try to drive in the snow,
Starting point is 00:02:04 we see firsthand that you don't know what to do. Yeah. You read into that. Yeah, we are immediately not shocked by seeing where your license plate says it's from. We see it and we go, oh, they're from Texas. They don't know. Exactly. They don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:17 Anyway, it's good to have you all back. We're going to get right into it here. I know we don't care that much about the Grammys, you and I. It's not that big a deal. No, no, I think I feel about the Grammys the way a lot of our listeners feel about the Oscars or at least some of our listeners like yeah you know what it's uh i like what i like as far as music and that usually doesn't get represented very uh very well at the gramees like all right i like taylor swift sure i hear really really good things about harry's house the album
Starting point is 00:02:44 i'm i have to listen to it i don't have any problem with harry styles i know he's fine maybe his acting and uh don't worry darling uh could have been better but that was a not a very good movie what was he bad i didn't ever see it was he bad in that I mean, he was, he was as good as you would expect Harry Styles to be in that. He was great in, wasn't he in Dunkirk? Yeah, Dunkirk supposed to be good in that. Yeah, he was great in Dunkirk. Yeah, I think he's got a, that boy's got a future, see?
Starting point is 00:03:12 But maybe it's because he was falling in love with the director the whole time he was making, yeah, maybe that whole. Yeah, you can't really focus on your acting. He can't leave Ted Lassow for him. Yeah, what do you? Oh, yeah, I forgot he was in Eternals too, right? Yeah. So he'll, he'll be around. uh he smells good apparently anyway he's he's just fine harry style is going to be just fine yeah
Starting point is 00:03:32 he'll be all right you guys don't don't stress but anyway yeah i'm kind of the same but i thought we'd rip through some of these just to kind of see if we know it's more of a game of like do have we heard this this is great this is kind of like the whole uh you know what's trending on twitter i've never heard of any of these people that are trending on twitter i don't know what that is is there is there do i need to watch out for this bad bunny like is he is it uh oh yeah keep Keep your eye on bad bunny. He's bad and he's a rabbit. All right.
Starting point is 00:04:01 So before we do that, I want to play the announcement that Assassin's Creed Valhalla won an award for best game soundtrack. And it deservedly so. It's very good. However, this is what that went down like. And the Grammy goes to Assassin's Creed Valaaha. Walla. Assassins Creed Valaha. so finally not even not even really like an attempt it was like oh i thought i just have to come up
Starting point is 00:04:34 and say one word yeah who was that by the way do we know i don't know who that was i i probably could have found it when i got the clip but i don't know who the but it kind of cracked me up he's probably some singer dude that no one's heard of yeah anyway uh that was my favorite part of the entire event but uh brian if you were to guess of these albums which one one record of the year. Well, I guess you have the list so you know who. I have the list. I pulled it up because I'm like, oh, I forgot that Olivia Rodriguez's incredible album. Sour, I think is what it's called, the album, was this last year. It felt like it came out a couple years ago. That is, it probably should have won. It's my favorite of the stack here. And listen, I like me some,
Starting point is 00:05:20 I like me some Abba. I like me some Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga. It's a cover, of course. A little Croner album of Cruiter covers. Yeah, it's nice. Billy Elish's album was great, but that Olivia Rodriguez album. Yeah, it was really good. I still have faith in you from Abba was in there, as you mentioned, and it didn't win, but I thought that would have been cool because it would have been crossing the generations.
Starting point is 00:05:43 What a great resurgent, like popularity resurgence for Abba. I mean, just the fact that they got nominated is pretty damn incredible. Yeah, it's pretty wild. The winner this year, though, is something called. leave the door open by silk i don't know who that is or silk sonic sorry silk sonic i don't know yeah i like my sonics uh semi i don't like them silk uh you prefer semi sonic i prefer semi sonic to silk sonic i i like a big hot dog from sonic which is a whole separate thing i guess sure um kiss me more by dojo cat was featured and the reason i bring that up okay uh as one of the
Starting point is 00:06:19 Feathing Siza. The reason I bring that one up is because the only other thing I saw visually of the event was she was either post or pre-show macking out hard with some dude for the cameras to the point that it was like, you're going to have to turn that camera away. They're about to like have sex in front of that camera. Really? I don't know what was going on there, but I guess good for them. Well, why don't you say so? Yep, that's the truth. Oh, Silks Sonic is Bruno Mars. It is? Is that the supergroup that he's... Oh, is that his thing? Yeah, there's like some supergroup that did a thing in Vegas.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Hold on, I've got to pull this up now. Silk Sonic. Yeah, Bruno Mars, Anderson Pack. There we go. Who's Anderson Pack? They had a Vegas thing, like a... Like a residency or a short-term residency? here or something.
Starting point is 00:07:18 Bruno Mars Anderson Pack who's Anderson.com which I don't know which country has the universal resource locator of dot packed. Well, they got a lot of new top level domains. Maybe they decided that'd be one of those.
Starting point is 00:07:35 So hold on a second. I don't know who this Anderson Pack is. Who is this guy? Do we know him? Do I know him? Yeah, I know him from some covers. Is he good? Do you like him? He is good, yeah. It's a soul.
Starting point is 00:07:46 singer? All right. Good, good job. Silk Sonic. I apparently missed a joke. He says Coverville, missed the joke entirely. Or miss the joke entirely at Coverl. I don't know. No idea. Maybe something you said or. No idea. I don't know what he means. All right. Oh, R&B. Anderson Pack, R&B. Oh, R&B. Come on now. R&B. Yeah, R&B. A song of the year also went to them for leave the door open, which is something I say when I'm taking a big, huge dump in the morning. For sure. Yeah. Especially, I'm in that bathroom. the house that doesn't have a fan better leave the door open yeah yeah so record of this the year
Starting point is 00:08:20 and song of the year this this thing always confuses me because neither of them like record of the year you think oh okay the album no there's also album of the year right like record of the year i don't know what that means is a song yeah exactly it's a recorded song of the year this is kind of like it's like the Oscars having arcade or I mean like the Oscars having a category of best movie
Starting point is 00:08:47 or best motion picture and best film right right yeah it's weird I don't get it either and the same people won so I just say call it off it's weird
Starting point is 00:08:56 you know what I think record is single okay then why not but then why song why have a single and song yeah it's dumb by the way somebody pointed out and I think you're
Starting point is 00:09:08 Oh, gotcha, Dice Tomatoo. It wasn't me missing the joke. It was Scott, and I don't think you missed it. What did I miss? Semi-Sonic. No, I got it. Semi-Sonic, the band. I got it.
Starting point is 00:09:17 He totally got it. Yeah, yeah. We do things a little deadpan around here. You miss the joke, Dice Tomato. You did. Exactly. You missed Scott not missing the joke. That's what you missed.
Starting point is 00:09:26 Album of the Year. So, here we go. Record of the Year deals with a specific recording of a song and recognize the artist, producers, and engineers who contribute to that recording, while Song of the Year deals with the composition of a song, and recognize the songwriters who wrote the song. Oh, okay. Split in hairs there, you know?
Starting point is 00:09:46 And also, and also this list you pulled up is the 2022 Grammy winners. Oh, shit. Am I looking at the wrong hair? Yeah, you're looking at last year, which is why Olivia Rodriguez's driver's license felt like it came out years ago. So this right here expresses in uncertain, uncertain terms, how, just how disconnected we are from the Grammys. This could have been this year. be could not be uh more evident by that right no it's it's 20 20s house yeah that's not it at all hold on 2023 grammies good lord where's listen i was i was going by scott's list that's where i was
Starting point is 00:10:26 following because i really you know like i said i don't care hey good news abba had another album of the year uh called voyage so they were nominated this year we were close enough and this was the album that that song came from but the album it was a pre-release of the song and look oh look it's some of the same names
Starting point is 00:10:44 it's Brandy Carlisle and Abba again and I forgot because you got Lizzo on here
Starting point is 00:10:53 but the winner went to Harry's house from Harry Styles he won so there you have it record of the year went to about damn time

Starting point is 00:13:23 If you put skin in your name, I think it's heavy metal. How come we'd never had... We had white tiger, white lion, white snake. How can we do have white skin? Yeah, we're a skin. It feels like we should have the white skin. Yeah, the white skin. I mean, they were...

Starting point is 00:14:25 Best Traditional Pop Vocal album. It feels like that. Feels like Holiday Albums should be a separate category. I agree. Also, I don't like this one. Best Dance slash Electronic Music album. Names I recognize Eisen should be in here. Rufus DeSole for Surrender. Odessa for the last goodbye. Diplo for Diplo for Diplo.
Starting point is 00:14:42 And Bonobo for Fragments. And now, the winner. Renaissance by Beyonce? Why is Beyonce the winner? Why? Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, that seems... Did she do like a Madonna? Whatever?
Starting point is 00:14:56 Like that maybe. Yeah, I guess we need to listen to it. I guess we need to check out Renaissance by Beyonce. Hey, best rap album. Almost went to your favorite guy, DJ Khalid. Another one, another one, another one back there. By the way, what was going to say? You want to see why, you know, why I think DJ Callad's a hack is look at the listing.
Starting point is 00:15:16 It's basically the song's called God Did, DJ Collin, featuring, take a deep breath. Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, John Legend, Friday Vegas, Doja Cat. Yeah, he's always working with 50 people. Yeah, he's the Ed Sullivan of a rap. What's a better, what's a more current example that kids are going to get these? Yeah, what do we, do we have one? I don't think we have anything like that's all in anyway. He's, he's basically the facilitator that brings all these people together to sing on his song.
Starting point is 00:15:48 Yeah, I guess he's good at that, so. I guess. Let's see if there's anything else that matters here. Willie Nelson won for Live Forever for his country solo performance. That's cool. I wish that was a cover of the Oasis song. I would pay $500 for a Willie Nelson Oasis cover album. Maybe it is.
Starting point is 00:16:11 Where he covers Live Forever and... I mean, these are just performances, not songs, so I don't know. I don't really want to know how your garden grows. Pot is great. I just want to fly. I just want to smoke pot. Lately. All the time.
Starting point is 00:16:25 Did you ever feel the rain? He'll get along with his brother better. I know that. Let's see. Is there anything else here? It Matters. Best Rock album, Patient Number 9, Ozzy Osbourne.
Starting point is 00:16:38 It's a good album. Yeah, that's a good one. Ozzy's new album is really good. A lot of old names on here, though. Best Comedy album went to The Closer, Dave Chappelle. I don't know who, I've heard that because it was the TV one that was so controversial. Sure. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:16:55 The Louis C. The Luce. Compilation soundtrack for visual media. That's a weird. A weird way to phrase. Best soundtrack, right? Yeah, best movie soundtrack, because these are all movies. All they are, yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:17:08 And Contal one for that. Very nice. Yes. Yeah. Top Gun, Maverick almost did. We don't talk about Bruno. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I'm triggering Claire because she tells me I sing it completely wrong.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Oh, look, I agree with her, but I also prefer your version. That's to trigger Claire. I prefer your version. All right. Brian, you have a list. story you'd like to share oh i do do you have a little uh you have a little sound by here be courteous and obey traffic regulation what happened all right so thursday night i'm uh picking up a uh decided to do a little little late afternoon early evening driving it's right in prime time so you know
Starting point is 00:17:50 constant rides and and uh you know getting money of course it's a whole big point um and uh it gets to be about 5 30 6 o'clock i'm like all right i'm going to make this my last ride i pick up A woman, a really cool bike messenger. Former bike master, we talked all about what it's like to be a bike messenger in downtown because I've never seen Quicksilver with Kevin Bacon, so I need to get all my bike messenger knowledge from lift rides. Sure. That's still a thing, I guess.
Starting point is 00:18:19 People get in business back and forth. People still need, yeah. I mean, you need papers, signed papers, the originals. You can't deal with a scanned copy or a fax or anything like that. So she was telling me all about that, and we're driving on the highway, on the internet, state i-25 getting her back and uh uh there's this place where where you have to merge the lane ends you have to merge i merge over into from the right far right lane which is ending into the lane next to it no problem you know just fine somebody in the lane to my left decides that
Starting point is 00:18:54 they want to merge and i'm in front of them like i am two-thirds of the way past them so just them looking to their right, they would see me. However, for whatever reason, they decided to come over into my lane. And sure enough, I kind of see it starting to happen. I speed up a little bit to see if I can get past them because I know, I kind of seeing that they're just coming over. And bam, they hit my rear left, rear driver's side quarter panel.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Ooh. Yes. really technically the left side of my bumper i like almost got past them and uh so i'm like oh crap so and i've got a ride in the car i've got somebody you know i'm taking a passenger i'm like oh good lord i don't need this and it was a you know it was it was a hard enough hit that we both went ooh you know like okay yep that came in contact and uh um but not hard enough i found out to like really dent anything so pulled over on the side of the highway and he pulled over as well.
Starting point is 00:20:02 He pulled over, you know, like a few yards, several yards in front of me for some reason. Because he was behind me, he decided to go way in front of me. So I checked the far right lane. I'm parked in the shoulder. I check the far right lane to make sure that as I open my door, it's not going to get taken off by another car. And I hop out and my passenger is like, oh, my God, be careful. I'm like, oh, yeah, don't worry, I'll be, I'll be right.
Starting point is 00:20:27 And I kind of look back and look at, you know, the, quarter panel at the side of my bumper and it's like oh there's like he must have hit me with his tire or something rubber or plastic because it was uh it was all just kind of rubbing off in my fingers like the the um the mark on my bumper was coming off so i'm like all right well no dent no big deal nothing that i want to raise my insurance about and and do a whole uh a whole report so i go up to his car i go up to the car and i'm like uh yeah so So you hit me, it looks like there's no damage. So we just want to call it a call at us.
Starting point is 00:21:05 He's like, oh, I thought we were close, but we didn't hit. I'm thinking myself, if you didn't think we hit, number one, whatever. You felt it, dumbass. But number two, why'd you pull over then if you didn't think we hit? Yeah, you know, it's not like you had lights on like a cop or something. He didn't need to if he thought he didn't hit anything. Exactly, exactly. That's some horseshit from him.
Starting point is 00:21:26 He's full of poop. It's some horrid shit. Like, I think the dude was high. which is what I think of every driver now, by the way. I see because of Colorado now, I just assume every other. I've turned into that 75-year-old yelling at Clouds, man. Like, hey, that driver's probably high. Yeah, but even like the idea that, see, here's what he was probably prepared to do.
Starting point is 00:21:47 It's say, oh, did I hit you? Like, he was going to weasel out of it. And you came and said, well, you hit me, but it doesn't look too bad. You just want to be okay with it. The smart person would say, oh, yeah, sorry about that, but that sounds good. It's probably much less hassle. You know, I'll be more careful next time. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:22:01 Instead, he's still locked and loaded on his excuse. Right. Exactly. Oh, I thought we were close. Like, oh, okay. That annoys me. That annoys me worse than him hitting you, kind of. Yes, exactly.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Yeah, Dashcam wouldn't have picked it up because he hit back left behind me. Like, the front right of his car hit the back left of my car. So, you got to have like a Rivian or something to get all those shots. Yeah, exactly. One of those, like, full. full-on camps. Yeah. So, anyway, got back in the car, and she was like, all right, everybody okay?
Starting point is 00:22:33 You know, are they, they're right, and do you guys exchange information? I'm like, no, there was enough really to worry about for doing that. I don't want to get my insurance involved or anything like that. So, yeah, get the rest of the way home, I get home, and I look at it, and it's like, oh, well, he did kind of take off about a, a pea pods, a sized, a little bit of paint. not too bad a little shaped like Tennessee chunk of paint about the size of a of a small peepod
Starting point is 00:23:04 I probably should should have gotten his information just said you know you just want to give me 100 bucks to get this thing fixed or something like that but yeah sounds like you may not have known what to say to that can you imagine yeah who knows exactly but wow that's fun
Starting point is 00:23:21 I figure I've got I've got all this primer and filler from all the 3D printing, the modeling stuff that I do. So it's like, oh, you know, I'll just fill it. I'll get some touch-up paint from the Kia dealership, and I'll just do it myself and then do a
Starting point is 00:23:36 coat, an overcoat on it or something. Yeah, that's not hard. You can get matched, you get the matching color and stuff these days. That's the first, so I've had that car since 2013. It's a 2014 model Kia Soul, and it's the first time it's ever been in contact with another car. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:23:53 It sucks, and it happens on your, and it's also your first lift accident. At first and only, I hope. My first lift, first and only lift accident and with a passenger in the car. Oh, man. But she wasn't in a huge rush. That also helps, right? She was like not freaking out. The whole thing only really took about
Starting point is 00:24:09 five minutes for me to pull over, check it out, go up to the other guy's car, let him off the hook, and then get back in the car. Well. She apparently that whole time was like texting her friend, like, she was in her, like, early 20s. My driver just got out of the car. car he's on the highway oh my god what should i do should i call another lift i'm like she's got a story
Starting point is 00:24:30 to tell now she's got a story yeah exactly that's fun for her i doubt you has a morning show to do it on right exactly but she did tip and she did give me five stars so oh very nice i still have an un unbroken five star record that's my streak right there the lifting since 2018 nothing ever less than five stars pretty good pretty as good as you can get You know? That's as good as you can get out. Yeah, they don't give you a six. Five's the max.
Starting point is 00:24:59 Thank you. Unblemished record. Thank you, Jeannie. There you go. No scuffed rear quarter panel on Brian, only his car. Not on my record, just on my car. That's right. Correct.
Starting point is 00:25:07 All right. Quick text, I've got to read here from a listener who had a little follow-up from last time we spoke. This is from KT, who says, tar is awesome, the movie. Yes. And everyone should see it, not black tar heroin. He's talking about a film. Everyone should try black tar heroin. Everybody should try.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Right. But I have a bone to pick with Brian, he says. He said that Kate Blanchett was a national hero. He means, I think he means he, not I. He must have meant for us here in Australia, right? Love the show down under, though, KT. So, I mean, of course. I could remember if she was British or Australian. I knew she was an American.
Starting point is 00:25:43 But can't, she can be a national hero to us Americans from wherever she is, can't she? I don't know. She have to, I don't know what the rules are. Do you have to have citizenship? or can you dual citizenship or can you be a national hero? I think you can be a national hero to a nation other than your own. And I'm sure she's an Australian national hero, but why can't she be an American national hero too?
Starting point is 00:26:03 It's a fair point. You don't have to be. Show me in the rules where it says you have to be from the place that makes you a national hero. By the way, it's Kate with a C and Blanchett with two T's KT. Oh, shit. Yeah, yeah. How are we supposed to take you seriously, Katie? We can't take him seriously when he can't even, and he's from Australia, and he can't even,
Starting point is 00:26:31 so how can't can't be a national hero to him if he can't even spell her name correctly? Oh my gosh. It's like this guy that got mad at Wendy's last segment where he said, as I recall in the conversation, you were, your son was playing with some kid. I don't know what kid it was, but some kid, I think I sent that to you, didn't I? I think I did. Maybe I didn't. I think so, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:52 How long ago was this? His last week, just last week. And he couldn't, he was really mad about something about the conversation we had, but didn't remember any details about the conversation that we had. Like, none of the details were there. So it was like, he was mad about something. It's like being mad at Schindler's list and then someone saying, what's that movie about? Oh, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:27:13 I think there's cars in it. And like, you know what I mean? It's weird. Yes. That is, now that you say that, yes, I do remember. that, yeah. It was really weird. I sent it to, I think I sent it to Amy. She saw it as well. It was dumb. It was so dumb. Oh, yeah. He was mad about something Wendy didn't even say. That was it. Yeah. He just had it in his head. I mean, if that guy's listening, I'm happy to hear back from me. And I replied as such. I'm like, dude, I don't think you heard everything. I feel like you listen to a different episode. So I don't think you should be mad yet until you've actually paid attention. Anyway, if you want to be mad about something, be mad about the fang. Because we still don't know what's up with the fang. We don't know what's up with the fang. We don't know what's up with the fang. We have no idea. We have no idea. Somebody please clear up the thing. Yeah, please.
Starting point is 00:27:53 But KT, if you want to send us these things, that's fine. If anyone else wants to, you can totally do it. 801-471-0-462 is where you send it. All right, we're going to get done away in this. Kate Blanchett's a national hero. Yeah, Kate with a K, according to the C. Yeah, yeah. Kate with a K.
Starting point is 00:28:08 Kate with a K, Kate. Kate. If you... Kate Blanchett. You only see C if you're outside of Australia. She's Australian for Kate. Bitch. All right.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Let's see. Where's Dunaway? Oh, there he is. Brian Dunaway joins the fray, as he does every Monday and Wednesday. I wasn't trying to rhyme. Hi, Brian. How are you? Oh, hi, Scott and Brian. Hi. Oh, hello. What's your favorite Kate Blanchett movie? Yeah, what do you like? The one where she's the, her name is Kate. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:28:44 My favorite, too. Yeah, with a K, Kate with a K. Kate with a K. Yeah. I mean, there's a, you know, there's a lot to like. about her entire career, but I'm trying to think of a performance I didn't like, and I can't think of one. It's all good. Even in that, Don't Look Up. I think she was great and don't look up with the whole, like, the complete transformation that she had. Yeah, she
Starting point is 00:29:03 was awesome in that. And I, and I came away respecting who's the Medea guy? Because he was her co-host in that. Yes. Right. I can't think of his name. I can't either. It's just the best got the Matia, the Tyler Perry, you mean? Tyler Perry.
Starting point is 00:29:18 What are you talking about? I'm not. 14 from Don't Lookup, one of the Oscar nominees from last year. Yeah, don't look up. Okay. Yeah. But listen, when you do six movies that are all around a central character that you dress up as and you're like the producer and director and writer and all that stuff, you can be the Medea guy. It's totally.
Starting point is 00:29:37 I kind of caught me off guard with the Kate Blanchett question. I was trying to think which one was my favorite. A lot of her roles that I like are kind of small roles, but I think. Was it Indiana Jones, the Crystal Skull? No. No. No. Actually, I was thinking about it.
Starting point is 00:29:50 And I quickly Google and I'm like, oh, what movies was she, did she play a prominent part in that I actually liked? And I kind of liked that Nightmare Alley. I don't know if you guys watched it. Oh, that was so good. Yes. Yeah, that was pretty good. Funny, I forgot she was in that. That thing was, uh, yeah, yeah, you see Bradley Cooper's doodle in the bathtub.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Oh, man, I've been putting that movie off too long. You don't think that was a stunt, buddy doodle. Yeah, it was a rocket raccoon's doodle. And they just swapped them for, uh, wow that's amazing I didn't I didn't I didn't see she was intense in that movie you ever seen the old one that it was based off
Starting point is 00:30:28 it's so good it's so good that's right I forgot it was a remake she was great as Bob Dylan and I'm not there too she was the only female performer of of Bob Dylan in that movie
Starting point is 00:30:42 oh weird I liked her and you guys remember Thor Ragnarach hella sure she's hell of me yeah but she wasn't there enough right for me Well, you just said small role, though, didn't you? You liked the small ones.
Starting point is 00:30:53 Yeah, that's why I said smaller roles. What about the, do you guys remember that show called, oh, it's a name of a Hannah. Remember Hannah, the movie, Hannah? Do you remember that? Wait, wait, what was it called again? It's called Hannah. Isn't there a movie about a woman named Hannah called something? She does a song with Hannah?
Starting point is 00:31:12 Starring Eric Anna. No, not the TV series, the Hannah movie from 2011. There it is. Anna Banna. Hannah. With Eric Banna. Not Hannah Banna, then. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:20 Is Eric Banna in that, really? Eric Bannas in Hanna. Oh, I just remember the Sacea Roman girl. He plays a mana. He has a pet mana. That's a great movie, by the way. Real good. I've not seen that, actually.
Starting point is 00:31:33 Isn't that like an atomic blonde? Kind of. She's a young girl. It's a little bit like that, except that she's this young girl who was raised to be a perfect assassin by her dad. and then she's just awesome and nobody can stop her. And she, they have a TV show on Prime. That's very good.
Starting point is 00:31:57 Yeah, Lafemniquita. Yeah, that sort of thing. Okay, cool. Well, I'll put that on the list. They should. It's very good. It's with that, let's see if I can trigger clear again. Oh, it's with that Seor C.
Starting point is 00:32:10 C.R.C. Ronan. Yeah, C.R.C. Roos, which I really like Ceron. Yeah, that's the one. Yeah, she's the one. Done away, we're going to play again. game you know how it works uh brian's going to explain it anyway because for those at home who don't know uh and some of those people might win prizes so brian explain this thing and how it works
Starting point is 00:32:26 might be their first time here welcome to the morning half ass is a trivia game where i'm actually going to be giving scott and brian the answers i'm going to give the two of them a category and six possible answers three of those answers are correct for that category three of them are just bold face flat fake news uh depending on how confident they feel with the category they can provide one two or three guesses and if they get any of those guesses wrong they get zero points for that round. Get one right. You get a point, get two right, gets you three points. Get three right. Gets you five freaking points.
Starting point is 00:32:56 And the player with the most points. Moist points. The moist points. Gross. After three rounds, wins the prize for their contestant. And contestants are pulled from those. Happy birthday, Tina. Oh. Those moist points that aren't able to listen live.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Scott, you're going to be playing for Dustin Anderson in Delton, Michigan, which is near Kalamazoo. And Brian, you're going to be playing for Jeff Jensen in Midway, Arkansas. Jeff Jensen. It's halfway through Arkansas. Halfway to the front and the back of... Like the taint. Yeah. That's the way you're supposed to wipe.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Front to back. Front to back. Unless... Unless what? There's a reason? What's the reason? I like side to side personally. Oh, gosh.
Starting point is 00:33:41 I like to dab. Acrobatic. Don't dab. Dab is not good. Yeah, what are you doing with dabbing? I got it. Listen, I have a day. That's what I prefer.
Starting point is 00:33:53 I just like... I like the squirt. Like a car wash and butts off the windshield is what that is. Don't dab. Never dab. Well, all right, let's get to your question because this is way, way going in bad directions. All right. The game is called half-asses.
Starting point is 00:34:12 It's called half-asses. Exactly. All right, your first one. No help from Zoe on this one. London Underground stations. You know London has the subway system called the Underground, has a very pretty colorful map that shows you all the different lines and all the different stations on there.
Starting point is 00:34:29 Maybe if you've read the book Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman, you might know some of these. All right, which of these are actual London Underground stations? Aldgate, Pew Gardens, Earl's Court, Waterloo, Piccadilly Zoo, and Queens Cross. old gate pew gardens i'm so i'm so american that all of these sound right
Starting point is 00:34:54 right they do yeah yeah we're down to pew gardens i don't know how you even do that i know zoe can probably even tell tell us which uh which lines these are on too like oh yes well this one's on the the red line and this one's on the blue line
Starting point is 00:35:09 they all sound like harry potter bullshit to me it's like yeah oh yeah this is where harry potter gets on a train and goes to hogworts Sweet. Let's go. Are you actually going to pick any, Brian? I'm thinking. Shut up. I'm thinking. I'm locked in, baby.
Starting point is 00:35:23 Alder. I'm locked in. I hope I got this right. Guessing two. Okay. All right. Brian's locked in with two. You guys actually locked in on the same, on two of the same ones. Waterloo, I mean, come on now. If you like the kinks at all, you know about Waterloo sunset taking place at a at a tube station, a line on the Waterloo.
Starting point is 00:35:46 I think it's even on the Waterloo line. Is it an Abba thing, too? An Abba song? Is it about that? No, there's a song called Waterloo by Abba, which is a reference to Napoleon's defeat. Oh. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:00 That's the reason why I thought it was, yeah. We got a Waterloo. Anyway, Pew Gardens, you guys both settled on as well. Pew Gardens completely made up. Damn it. It's real. Altgate, Waterloo, and Earl's Court. I almost did Queen's. The three real ones in there.
Starting point is 00:36:20 Queens Cross is fake. Piccadilly Zoo is there to make you think of Piccadilly Circus. So don't say that one, but you guys stay away from that one. But, yeah, Earl's Court. I assume there was no zoo there. That's cool, though. If there was a zoo, you could just drive up to that'd be cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:33 A little Piccadilly Zoo or take a station. Why not? Oh, well. Yeah. Kings Cross is a station, but not Queens Cross. She's very cross. Yeah, she's pissed. Let's get to, uh, Queen's.
Starting point is 00:36:44 Cross. We've been wrong. Yeah. Question number two. U.S. states with an official state whale. So which of these states have an official state whale? Is it? Alaska, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Louisiana, Maine, or Oregon? Which of these states?
Starting point is 00:37:00 I have more questions. I didn't pick any landlocked. I have more questions than I have. The official Kansas state whale. Yeah. This is weird. One of them feels like a trap. So I got to click that one.
Starting point is 00:37:14 sure sure uh and then the other ones that feels like that's got to be an absolute but jesus yeah this is hard this is a hard one i'm locking in those seem obvious but i'm totally sure you're you're going to tell me why i'm wrong wow you guys both again you lucked in on alaska and maine alaska they're they're practically surrounded by ocean right both of them the official state whale of alaska is the bowhead the bowhead whale so very good on that one there is no state whale for Maine, so both of you get that were wrong as with Louisiana. Louisiana, Massachusetts has the right whale, is their official state whale. And Connecticut, of course, has the sperm whale. They get whales down in the Gulf done away. That's not a... Of course they do. Yeah, they could do that.
Starting point is 00:38:03 I just didn't... None of these were bad guesses. Like, all of them have, all of them have our whale, are whale adjacent. You know, if I said Kansas and you guys said Kansas, then I'd be worried. All right. Do we have to go to something that's a little more of your speed? Fine. We'll go to something that's a little bit more of your speed. Arcade games. Oh, both of us. Okay, good. Yeah, both of you. You go both at zero. Somebody needs a point.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Question number three. Arcade games released before 1985. So arcade games that came out before 1985. Your choices are, Super Sprint, Street Fighter, Bubble, Bobble, Space Ace, Mario Brothers, and Snake Pit. these feel like tricks I know a couple of these I know right I know two
Starting point is 00:38:50 maybe but now I'm scared I'm just going to go and embarrass myself there we're all right oh both of you go on all like Scott Locking it with two Brian Dunway going for three yeah yeah guess what snake pit
Starting point is 00:39:03 the game which I was unfamiliar with came out in 1983 that was released before 1985 yeah Mario Brothers, released in 1983, also. Oh, Dagum, that means that long. And Space Ace also released, actually, 1984. Ralph Bakshi artwork in that one.
Starting point is 00:39:24 So we're super congratulations. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Ralph Bakshi was not in Space Ace. That was, you're thinking. Who was not involved with the artwork? What am I thinking? Am I just thinking Dragon's Lair? Yeah, no, Dragons Lair and Space Ace are both.
Starting point is 00:39:35 Oh, not Bakshi is the other guy. Right. Bluth, Bluth. Bluth. Bluth. Bluth. Thank you, yes. Max Sch, Bluth. Art nerds.
Starting point is 00:39:42 Yes. No, I really should have gotten Bluth. Anyway, congratulations. Super Sprint was released in 1986. Yeah, Street Fighter 87. And Bubble Bobble 86 as well. Snake, but I'd never even heard of. That's why I thought it was one of these.
Starting point is 00:40:00 But Space Ace surprised me. I thought Space Ace was later. So that threw me. I did too, which means that Dragons Lair was even early. than that, which I would have put both of them after 1985, because the laser disk technology and stuff like that. Anyway, congratulations, going
Starting point is 00:40:18 to Scott Johnson, who is winning prizes for Dustin Anderson in Delton, Michigan, Dalton M.I. Yeah. And you're getting a copy of unmettle, unmetal, and Raji, an ancient epic on Steam.
Starting point is 00:40:33 But don't worry, Jeff. You're also getting something for your fun, your pain here. Your first class trouble is what you're going to get on Steve as well. The trick, so the trick to that last question was, you had Mario Brothers in here, and a lot of people when they read that, they think Super Mario Bros. Super Mario Brothers. That's exactly what I did. And I went, oh, Super Sprint. That's easy.
Starting point is 00:40:51 Yeah, but we're talking like the static screen, Mario and Luigi bumping crabs and doing all that. The crabs and the turtles coming in and the big pal button in the middle. Yep. Yeah, I like that game. You know what the best version of that game is? There's a GBA version of it that's an extra tacked on to the remastered version of Super Mario Bros. 3 on the GBA, it's called Super Mario Advance 4. The names are stupid, but Super Mario Advance 4 on the GBA has a second mode,
Starting point is 00:41:21 and it's just the old power button looking like you just described game, but with like new graphics, like 16-bit upgrades and stuff, it's the best version of that game. It's so good. Really? Oh, I need to play that. I love that. Yeah, I think it's amongst those ROMs I gave you the other day. I was going to say that, you mean the rams that kind of fell into my lap to play on my PlayStation. Those ones that I legally pulled off of your cartridges and then gave back to you.
Starting point is 00:41:47 I got this guy, which looks like a weird, like a weird USB hand. This is so that I can actually put a better USB 2.0 stick in my PlayStation Classic so that I can put more games on it. Oh, very nice. Yes. Oh, yes. You got your, okay, cool. I did my Autobleem. Yep. Autolene. I don't like the name. I don't like Autobleem. I don't like the name either, but it works. It's a funky deal. It's so incredible. Now, like, you know, listen, the games it comes with, I dig me some Battlerina to Shendon. I like me some intelligent cube. Mr. Driller, for whatever reason, I actually really like Mr. Driller. That's great. Nothing wrong with those.
Starting point is 00:42:33 But I'm excited to put a bunch more on there. Best version of Mr. Driller may have been a DS port of it, but yeah, that's a great game. Yeah, that's very good. Oh, I had that. Yes, I absolutely had the DS version. Yeah. For whatever reason, and we keep talking about this with Dunaway on that show on Play Retro, but for whatever reason, the Game Boy Advanced Era is so freaking good.
Starting point is 00:42:51 People miss, if you didn't have that handheld, you missed out on some of the best versions of everything that TENI made. Except Earthworm Gym, Jim is a terrible port, but everything else was amazing on there. Just love the UVA. Anyway, congratulations. Congratulations. guy you're a winner i'm glad i could do it for you and speaking of winning you'll do it again if you listen to play retro tomorrow night where we are going to talk all about the wing commanders that's right wing commanders for days not the movie although i'm sure it'll get a mention
Starting point is 00:43:20 but the the original games that started it all and and how what's his name got all the way to star citizen from that because that's that's your guy you're saying every time you hear about star citizen if it wasn't for wing commander he wouldn't exist so uh anyway we'll talk all about it I'm very excited about it. Our PC players are very excited about us talking about it. Oh, very excited. Boy, what a journey I've had this past week trying to get all these games to run. Yeah, it's a bit of a beast.
Starting point is 00:43:45 It's a beast. The 3DO game is where I are the worst. The first one I ever play was oddly a 3DO game. It's the one that had the live action cut scenes with Mark Hamill and dudes dressed as lions. Yes. And I remember the name of it. Was it 3 or whatever it was? No, 3.
Starting point is 00:44:03 Was it 3? I loved it, dude. I love that game. Even though it was cheesy as shit. Anyway, all of that and more tomorrow on Play Retro. Watch us live or you can check out the podcast over at Play Retro or sorry, frogpans.com slash Play Retro or wherever you get your podcasts. Brian, anything else you want to say? Yeah, I want to thank Brian I bit for sending me this steam deck thing, the holder thing.
Starting point is 00:44:25 And plus this mini-disc I found in my box. Oh, did I accidentally drop that in there? Did I leave a, did I accidentally give you a copy of my Juliette Lewis? Roller skating with Juliet Louis. I can't wait to plug this in and to experience the full Juliette Lewis. Yeah, look at that. And we'll jack in with your squid.
Starting point is 00:44:43 Yeah. You weren't kidding when you said you had extra mini-disc laying around. Yeah, yeah. Oh, I need to send you a photo. If I could figure out, because I wouldn't mind like, you know, you pop open some of the cases and you get the disc out and the disc just really cool. And even though it's low tech, it's kind of high-tech looking. I'd love
Starting point is 00:45:00 to figure out a 3D print thing that I could do that makes use of those, right? Like, you know, just having the disc in there, it looks like, oh, some cool steampunky retro thing that, yeah. Let's workshop it. I'm ordering a resin printer, so yeah, let's do it.

By the way, the whole album is excellent. This one I listened to twice yesterday while I was playing Astraneer, and I completely dug it. Oh, how's the new Astraneer content? It's good. It's great.
Starting point is 00:52:38 I have, well, I say it's great. I'm finally building rail stations, which was the previous big astronaut. But the rail stations are awesome.

Starting point is 00:54:21 She'll always be my ladybird. Yeah, she's pretty great. And I'd forgotten she was Hannah, the actual character of Hannah. Yeah. Kind of wanted to watch it again. I really need to watch that. It's on Tooby somebody was saying, I think. Or no, they were saying that something else we were talking about was on Tooby Quicksilver.
Starting point is 00:54:36 Oh, gotcha. The Hannah series is also good, but I would start with the movie. just to get the background and stuff. And it is based on, obviously, it's based on that. Yeah, it's based on the film. They kind of retell it, but it's good. It's like, I don't know what to compare it to. What's a good example of this?
Starting point is 00:54:53 Not quite Fargo, where they take a great movie and then do new stories. It's kind of a remake, but I don't know. It's hard to explain it. It's really good, though. I like it. It is not streaming anywhere for quote-unquote free, but you can rent it on, You can rent it on Amazon for the odd price of $2.89. Which I've never seen...
Starting point is 00:55:16 What the frick? Really? Yeah, the first time I've ever seen something on Amazon that wasn't $3.99, $5.99, $12.99, et cetera. Weird. I know you can get standard definition stuff for like $2.99, but usually, or used to. I don't know if... Does anyone even have standard deaf now? That's weird.
Starting point is 00:55:35 Anyway, it's a good movie. Highly recommend it. All right. let's see here make it so we're going to add to the call Monica one
Starting point is 00:55:47 Monica yeah she is showing is offline though which is weird oh maybe she's forced it to show that I don't know maybe yeah for hers and our safety yep I even made this for her
Starting point is 00:55:59 it's not much but it'll get us there that's great Monica welcome to the show it's Wicked Kitten everybody hi how are you hello hi Are you at work?
Starting point is 00:56:11 What clandestine method are you using to communicate with us today? What's going on? I actually ran home. Yeah? From work, really? Yeah. I put like a little bit of time in and I left. I left work.
Starting point is 00:56:25 So when you know, like did you put a cardboard standy of yourself in place so that they wouldn't notice that you stepped away? I don't think you know how my job works. I know. I know you push big. crates full of boxes, big, like, palettes of boxes and that sort of thing. Is that true? That's awesome. No, no.
Starting point is 00:56:46 That's what you said Saturday. You said that Saturday during 10th. I think I said I push heavy things, but like, I work. Okay, fire cabinets. Frigerators? Yeah, what do you move? Yes, I work in, you keep talking. I'm not talking.
Starting point is 00:57:04 I work for Amazon Fresh, so I work in the grocery department. So whenever somebody orders groceries, I pack up your order. Have you ever been tempted to, I shouldn't do this because it's not good for you to do this on the air. But have you ever been like, I know that lady's name. I'm going to spit in her cream cheese. You know, like just let her have it. You ever, no temptation ever, nothing. No.
Starting point is 00:57:30 No. Have you ever had to package a corgette? What's a corgette? What is it? It's like a zucchini. Oh, I've never heard of it. I've had to package a zucchini, but, you know. You should swap it with a corgette and see if anybody knows if they...
Starting point is 00:57:46 See, there you go. There's your trick without getting in trouble. Just swap a corgette in for a thing, which is actually the exact same item. Anyway... I guess it is the same thing. I live in a highly populated area, by the way. You know how the chance of me packing somebody is that I know it... It'd be low.
Starting point is 00:58:02 Yeah, there's like 8 million people in this tiny, tiny state. That's right. that. Sure. It's ridiculous. Well, you're the first, I think, first person that we've had on to discuss anything that is explicitly from Jersey. Yeah. Except, uh, until we finally get Joe Piscopal on.
Starting point is 00:58:17 That's right. You're it. You're basically it. My friend, uh, our old pal, uh, Liam O'Brien is originally from Jersey, but he calls L.A. home now. So, uh, most people try to get out of there. At least that's the stereotype. But I don't think, I don't think it's so bad.
Starting point is 00:58:31 I've heard from plenty of people who are like the big a hidden secret about New Jersey is this is pretty great. And so, they don't call it. the garden state for nothing right is uh there are some beautiful parts of jersey yeah yeah i mean we get made fun of a lot because we're like new york's armpit or something sure um but as time has gone on you know florida and texas have slipped way down the list kind of risen us up you know uh my so we got we got beaches yeah you do and they and they're are their dead bodies represented in that uh bet middler movie uh very well represented beaches yeah the one called yes that was the
Starting point is 00:59:06 Atlantic City. Yeah, Atlantic City. That's right. You got the gambling. Yeah. Yeah. You got the Vegas Jr., basically. Right.
Starting point is 00:59:15 Vegas Light. Yeah, Vegas Light. A Reno Plus, basically, is what you call it. Boardwalk Empire. Oh, Boardwalk Empire is awesome. Literally. The Sopranos is great. You know, what else?
Starting point is 00:59:27 What other horrible crime syndicate family movies do we like? Anyway. I mean everything. It's true. I like it. I'm glad you're here. But the main point of all this is that you're a huge fan of movies that feature horror elements. Let's put it that way.
Starting point is 00:59:45 Hara. Hara films. Hara films. And as a result, you've got this podcast called Gore. And on that show, you talk all about the latest and greatest, but also old stuff, classic stuff. We want to know today, if we got our radars out and plugging away, what are we looking for in the year 2023? Or is stuff already come out and we missed it? well it'd be hard to do that because it's it's uh it's February 6th so are there no
Starting point is 01:00:10 horror movies before now like is it just do we do they save everything for Halloween and try to bank that that infinity pool is that any good uh you see the edge you see the infinity pool there yeah I have not seen infinity pool yet but there are it's a very divisive movie um but it's got me a got me a goth and Alexander Scarsguard so you imagine he's got to be naked in that so I'm at least going to like this contract yeah 50% of it or something yeah um we just said we got them that uh x yeah she was an x and then the follow up was called she's amazing what was that second one called this is like syl pearl yeah this old lady name so actually since we're already on the topic
Starting point is 01:00:52 i will talk about the the the last movie that probably will come up this year possibly hopefully or the beginning of next year but that's maxine the third in the scene series of that. Oh, really? Okay. Yeah. It's the, um, so the first one was, X was in the 70s. It was like a 70s slasher. And then Pearl is like a golden age prequel to that movie. And now Maxine's going to be the sequel. Um, also starring, they're all starring me a goth. She's like horror's rising star right now. Yeah. So she's in all of them. She's like the Dea dude of, uh, of those horror films. There you go. So wait, is this, is this already, so this is a confirmed deal. It's happening this movie. This movie. Oh, yeah, yeah. Okay. I mean, the, the only thing that's out is, like, a little, like, teaser thing where it just shows the name and it's, like, basically Hollywood because she wanted to be an actress. There's a lot of allegory between the three movies, so. Oh, the triple X and the Maxine threw me off. I couldn't find it.
Starting point is 01:01:50 Exactly. There it is. Oh, Max 16. Yeah, yeah. So this is still Ty West, who did the previous two films we just talked about, the same guy. Yeah, exactly. He's doing some really different stuff. I really liked X.
Starting point is 01:02:05 I did too. You know what I saw that I really liked to his? It was old was the sacrament from 2013. This was, I mean, it was basically Jim Jones retelling, like a fake version, like found footage, fake version of the Jim Jones thing where they poisoned everybody with Kool-Aid and all that, and they had this weird, you know, cult going on or whatever. And it was like a documentary filmmakers were in this cult trying to document it, and then things go wrong for him.
Starting point is 01:02:32 It really is just straight up that Jim Jones story, but told this way and in a more modern way. But I really liked it. I thought it was great. So, yeah, Ty West makes movies, and they're good. Good horror movies, I should say. Excellent. Anyway.
Starting point is 01:02:46 So since we're starting from the end of the year, I'll keep going. Yeah, I'll work my way backwards. So later in the year, still to be announced or determined, I don't know what TBA. TBA is to be announced, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, but it's sometime this year, Stephen King's The Boogie Man will come out.
Starting point is 01:03:08 It sets a release to Hulu, so that's going to be, yeah. Oh, I'm excited about this. It's a slow psychological horror. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I like that. Rob Savage directing this. Yeah, it's got not a lot of people you know in it, but David. Except for David Dastnell Shane. Dashmall chain, chain, he's in it.
Starting point is 01:03:28 Jane Jane. Love that guy. And I love Stephen King. So, like, that movie's coming out. There's a reboot of Salem's Lot later in the year also. So there's exciting Stephen King stuff coming out. The Salem's Lot redo is that TV, like a series or actual film? Do you know?
Starting point is 01:03:49 I don't know yet. Let's see. I don't know anything. Oh, here we go. It's a film. Upcoming film by Gary Doberman. Yep. Stephen King. I'll be honest. I've never seen the original.
Starting point is 01:04:01 Alfie Woodard. Oh, William Sadler will be in this as well. We love William Sadler. Yeah. Bill Camp. He's a horror movie guy. He does things. Yeah. Who else? This is great. I love Salem's lot. It's one of my favorite books. It's very good. Yeah. I just like that they're, you know, Stephen King is never going to go out of style, you know?
Starting point is 01:04:20 No. And people can keep adapting it until they get it right. Just keep adapting his stuff until you get it right. Yeah. That's true. Working our way back even more And with an actual date The reboot of The Exorcist Is set to release on October 13th this year Yes
Starting point is 01:04:39 David Gordon Green is directing Which That makes me very excited He did the Halloween 2018 I don't know if it's going to be Some kind of like cookie cutter Legacy sequel I have no idea Only Ellen Burstin
Starting point is 01:04:58 she's the only original Exorcist star to be set to be set to be starring in it but it's still a reboot so it's not really I mean Ellen Burstyn being in it is she
Starting point is 01:05:11 is it a sequel it's a sequel I'm sorry I didn't mean this is a sequel oh well no the Wikipedia the Wikipedia page even says 2020's reboot trilogy well reboot is different than remake right
Starting point is 01:05:21 reboot means you're you're kicking it on again Oh right that's right yeah so reboot it could be a sequel yeah correct you like this is a requal thing that's going on it's a thing yeah it is a thing i'm uh i'm all for this because i can't i still can't watch the original for some reason it's easier for me to think about watching a new one i don't know oh really why can't you watch the original i don't know it's really it's a kid thing when i saw it when i was a kid freak me so bad i just cannot go near that that was the thing for me
Starting point is 01:05:47 and uh emity vilhar freaked me out as a kid and then we watched it for film second i'm like my god why did i think any of this was scary yeah the only thing that kind of is freaky was a thing they added two things they added to the director's cut of the exorcist which was her walking backwards spider like down the stairs oh yeah oh yeah and then like a ghostly face you see next to uh what's his face when he's at the stove before he goes upstairs to oh um max von side out before he goes on x one side out yeah i think before yep exactly it's so all of that's just freaks me out but we need to need to do a film sack for it so i can get it out of my system yes yes exactly because i'm never
Starting point is 01:06:32 going to sit down and watch that by myself however i would totally watch this i have a question though this says it stars anne dowd and i love her she's the horrible horrible uh lady and um uh handmaid's tail but she was also amazing as and she barely said a word but she was amazing in the the uh leftovers leftovers yeah um she she said a lot in that one episode where it was her and uh what's face in a house like almost to a narrative for the whole episode yeah other than that i don't recognize oh i do recognize e g banilla he was in that um the old man series oh yeah okay he was the he was the jerky cia agent in that oh yeah okay cool yeah that's cool i'm down and for some reason there's a picture of john carlo espizito but he's not in this so i don't know why it's here
Starting point is 01:07:22 wow that guy's in everything yeah dude is and everything apparently uh Horror fans launched a petition to cancel the Exorcist reboot. Oh, why? Just because they don't want to... Yeah, they just didn't like the idea. Oh, boo, freaking who. They have other sequels that are shit. Where were you then?
Starting point is 01:07:45 Yeah. Look at that. Hey, that number three is pretty decent. Is it? I remember I saw three. I saw... The only actresses is becoming more and more commonplace, horror fans have launched petition on change.
Starting point is 01:07:57 dot org requesting plans for an exorcist remake be casted out immediately okay good also casting it out like a double is that their ideas yeah that's their uh joke yeah oh here we go uh we horror fans moviegoers cinophiles movie buffs do not want or need
Starting point is 01:08:13 a remake and this petition is to stop the greedy Hollywood machine for remaking the exorcist as we all already know that a remake will never equal the original yeah screw them this doesn't sound like horror fans because me and most of the horror fans that I know, we like the crap that we grew up on.
Starting point is 01:08:30 Yeah. We enjoy, like, millions of sequels. Speaking of sequels, this summer... Oh, well done. Yeah, well, transition. I like it. Yeah, good job. We're going to get the Nun 2, which is part of the conjurverse.
Starting point is 01:08:44 Yeah. And Insidious 5, which is part of, I guess, the Insidious Verse. I have no idea. Yeah. Yeah, I'm just mentioning them. You know how many of those movies I've seen? None. Oh, that's great.
Starting point is 01:08:56 I like it. You did there. What I did there because I had seen any of them. Watch the Conjuring. I love the conjuring series of movies. Yeah. Those jump scares are so perfect. Do you like them all?
Starting point is 01:09:10 You like them all? Or is there some, you know, the first one's pretty good. The second one's kind of eh, whatever. Like, are they all as good as each other? Well, I mean, they're all different. So I think it depends on your taste in the movies. Like, the original conjuring is just, It's beautiful, classic, and, like, it's amazingly shot, and the Second Conjuring as well.
Starting point is 01:09:33 Some of the Annabelle movies are a little less, but they still have some good scary things in them. Why don't I've seen this? Does it get Vera Farmeaga and Patrick Wilson? Yeah, have I, I could have sworn I've seen the character, which is on Netflix, by the way, yeah. Yeah, they're in all the Congress. They appear in all the movies because they're Ed and Lorraine Warren. these like she's a psychic and he's her husband and they you know they go around to like so like basically they're the people who um like they're real people yeah okay they were there
Starting point is 01:10:04 for the amityville thing back in the 70s and stuff so they would go around and I think he would perform exorcisms or like they would take part in them basically what I like these are all the stories that came out of it what I liked about those movies the first two that I've seen I haven't seen anything past that but um they were set in the 70s and there's something about setting things in the 70s that make horror movies better. I don't know why. Yes, agreed. Yeah. That was the thing I really liked about X was the setting. Here are your ranked seven conjurverse movies by rating. Okay. So they give number one to the conjuring from 2013, 86%. This is all rotten tomatoes. Conjuring 2, 2016 at 80%. Anabel
Starting point is 01:10:46 Annabelle creation in 2017 at 70%. Annabelle comes home in 2019 at 64%. And then things get dicey. The curse of La Lorona. Oh, I did not realize Annabelle and La Lorona were controverse. They are. And that only got a meager 28%. Oh, that sounds like a controversial.
Starting point is 01:11:08 Yeah, a little bit. Annabelle, the original Annabelle thing from 2014 was only 28%. And finally, the first none is only at 20%, But it did really well in the theaters, right? Like, that did gangbusters. Yeah, the problem with the nun is that the imagery of this picture of the evil-looking nun that was in the first conjuring movie, it's just like, it's been burned in our brain. And we've been waiting to find out the story behind this painting and this nun lady.
Starting point is 01:11:37 It's creepy as hell. Don't show it to me. Oh, my God. But, uh... It is scary. Why does she look like... She looks like the joke. do it's doing drag or something it's so weird it did not live up to my expectations but uh it's part of
Starting point is 01:11:54 the it's part of the converse and so i've you know seen it at least twice now and i will go see the on uh on hbo max so that one you can watch right away now okay maybe i'll watch a lot of them are i like dumb horror let's go let's watch it okay and that's got uh tisa tisa farmiga how do you pronounce that she's oh another five another pharma another farmiga yeah Is she a kid, a daughter? It's her sister. Yeah, sister Irene. Okay.
Starting point is 01:12:21 She's sister and she's also a sister. Yeah. She's a nun sister and she's also. I didn't know there were multiple Farminga actresses. I didn't know that. Yeah, I knew about Vera and then who's the younger sister that was in, shoot. No idea. The Farminga trilogy.
Starting point is 01:12:44 The Farminga Quadrilla. A quadrilogy. There's more Farmegas than I thought, I guess, is what I'm saying. Vera, Tessa, and who is the one that was in? Shemp. I thought there was only two, but I guess I'm wrong. No idea. All right, well, that's coming.
Starting point is 01:13:03 But I'll think she's done anything. So the Nun 2, that's on your radar, is it? Yeah, I mean, I'll watch it, but I figured I'd mention it because it's coming out during the summer. Okay. All right, I'm going to keep going. Keep going. Yes, please continue. Yes, continue on.
Starting point is 01:13:17 I'm sorry. Okay, so the next one, due to release in April 21st, on April 21st, but, yeah. Evil Dead Rise. Oh, yeah. Have you heard of this movie? Yes. No. Yes, I have.
Starting point is 01:13:30 The trailer looks insane, dude. Look, I love the Evil Dead movies. The last reboot, I did not. I'm willing to watch it a second time, Travis, I swear I'll watch it again, and maybe it'll change my mind. Um, yeah, because I see him in the chat. Yeah. But, like, I'm hoping it's, it's all about the camp.
Starting point is 01:13:54 The mom finds like the, the devil leather book, the skin book or whatever, right? Yeah, yeah. And then I watch this trailer. It looks freaking great. I'm so excited. See, this is the thing that always, like, this is what got me with Halloween, because I'd never, I had never seen any of the Halloween movies until just recently watched the first one. And, uh, but you've got, like, this separate.
Starting point is 01:14:14 like where it branches off and this is actually a sequel to that one because it doesn't take it doesn't take any of these other movies into account blah blah blah blah and i know obviously the original evil dead series but this is like the continuation of the newer evil dead stuff right right it's a 2013 evil dead as opposed to the original 80 well the 2013 evil dead was a remake of the 80s one right so i assume this is a sequel to that one right the sequel to the 2013 I guess I don't know but I would think so yeah I like that that 2013 remake is great what is I just I can't see you
Starting point is 01:14:56 um what did we call it I don't I don't know yet but I will say that like it's just the 2013 one was missing camp the camp for me I just want the fun in the camp back sure I like the brutal gross murdery stuff and and a lot of that stuff was good,
Starting point is 01:15:15 but it was attached to the evil dead name and without that silliness. And Sam Ramey is not involved at all. Okay. Yeah. He co-produced the 2013 one. So he was involved, but yeah, because this one doesn't have any involvement in the one coming out this year.
Starting point is 01:15:34 But I'll definitely check it out. Yeah, I'd like that remake personally. Yeah. But I was looking for, I wanted a scary, bloody thing. The first one leaves me. me not scared. Yeah. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:15:46 It's hard to explain. The first one has me scared of trees. Well, yeah, trees are scary. You should not mess with trees is what I learned from that thing. Especially that one, dude. Oh, my gosh. Anyway. Let's go to a fun movie.
Starting point is 01:15:58 Sure. All right. Give us a funny one. A good one. Okay. So, Renfield, releases April 14th. Nicholas Cage as Dracula. That's all I have to say.
Starting point is 01:16:09 Yeah. Yeah. It's got Nucks in it. Go see that. Nucks. I got two Nick. in here. Nick Cage, Nicholas Hout, Hout. Holt. Yep. However you say it. Aquafina, boo.
Starting point is 01:16:20 She's fine, whatever. Oh, what's wrong? There's nothing wrong with Austin. She annoys me. She's the same character and everything where she just goes, what's going on in here? I'm not, I'm a fish out of water. What's that doing here? Oh, I don't like that at all. I'm going to go to this other room. Yeah, it's that. It's basically that every time. But I'm, but I'm into this. It's got your Sharoa Hootia Haraka Chacha from, uh... Oh, I love her. Yeah. From the expanse. Ben Schwartz is in it. Speaking of voices that are like this. Yeah, she's way down here.
Starting point is 01:16:51 Yeah. Who's Ben Schwartz? You know Ben Schwartz. He's, um, he's, uh, he's, uh, he's, uh, his brother, Ralphio, Ralph, Rufia, what's his name on, uh, John Ralfio on, uh, John Ralfio on Parks and Recreationation.

Starting point is 01:17:58 Okay So coming up to March March 10th We have Scream 6 Oh I am absolutely
Starting point is 01:18:07 looking forward to this Scream is my in my top three franchises of all time. Okay, so you, I assume you've seen the newer stuff. Is it, I haven't seen any of this new business. Is it good?
Starting point is 01:18:19 Five came out last year? Last year. Yes, five came out last year. It's still, it's not my favorite, but it was, it was something different. It's pure legacy horror. And it was surprising. That's for damn sure. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 01:18:38 Okay, worth seeing. Because, you know, like, Scream was the definition of Gen X horror, which basically, because I'm a millennial, and I grew up watching this self-aware horror, this was my time. You know, these movies made me appreciate the campy, crappy movies from the 70s and 80s. Shined, shown a big light on all that stuff. Exactly. And now... I hate the fact that they called the one from last year just playing Scream, by the way. Yeah, they could.
Starting point is 01:19:09 They should have called the screen. cream four or whatever that's the that's the problem yeah see now I don't even know what number we're on exactly yeah sorry that's the legacy sequel thing they want to they want to use the brand recognition of it being just pure scream we're trying to let you know that it's a new thing but we've still got old elements so you get the old people like me and and you guys um to come and watch the movie because we love scream and you get the new kids because they you know they don't know anything do they this has got your uh your jena ortega in it she some really good taco shells, but was also
Starting point is 01:19:41 excellent in Wednesday. I thought she was really good in Wednesday. She was in five as well. She's returning. Oh, I didn't know that. It'll be interesting to see if she She makes it. Hayden Hayden Planetarium's in this one. I haven't seen her in a while. Oh, yes. They're bringing her back.
Starting point is 01:19:57 Finally. See the cheerleader, save the world. Yeah, what's her deal? So she was in four. She was my favorite character from Fork, because she was basically the Randy, like the horror fan that knew all the stuff. And, you know, she got stabbed. Well, you know what, sorry. Spoilers for a 2011 movie.
Starting point is 01:20:14 Anyway. Yeah, exactly. It's been more than two weeks. She's obviously alive, so it doesn't matter. But, yeah. I like her. I always liked her. I don't know why we don't get more of her and things.
Starting point is 01:20:23 I mean, if it's her choice, I'm happy for her for avoiding Hollywood crap. But if she, you know, I hope, I hope she's in more stuff. Everyone, you know, save the cheerleader, save the world, a lot of memes and all that. But she's actually quite good in almost everything I've ever seen her. Yeah. I also like the term Hayden Planetarium.
Starting point is 01:20:38 Yeah, Hayden Planetarium. they're on the weekends because two for one laser show uh laser floyd at the hayden planetarium that's right get in there anyway all right that's a good one and when's this this is a date we have a date march 10th okay soon they moved it up it was march 31st they moved it up to march 10th let's go into february real quick oh dermit mcrollney's in this bryan dermic mcrollney is in streamic mcrollney yeah dermic mcrollney all right sorry it's i forgot to say that it is the first scream movie without the main

Starting point is 01:21:23 About if she survived four or not. Oh, yeah, don't tell us. We don't know. Now I assume she could die. We don't even know. She probably died. I don't remember, actually. She made out with Charlie Sheen's ex-wife
Starting point is 01:21:36 in the movie. I'm thinking of Denise Richards I have that movie queued up so the next movie coming out it releases February 24th

Starting point is 01:22:30 Oh, yeah, you said Jesse Tyler Ferguson. Will he play a nerdish? but a flamboyantly gay character in this film? Do we know? Do we have any idea? He looks like a crazy character. He's got this weird hair. I don't know if he's like doing drugs or something, but, oh, yeah, I think maybe he was doing drugs from the trailer.

Starting point is 01:23:28 January 13th Which I've already watched it But I figured I'd bring it up Because well you know I've done every month apparently Sure Uh, it's called Megan. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:37 Oh, yeah. So you saw this. Yes. And it's great. Yeah. It is so much fun. Whatever you think you want in a robot, uh, doll movie. It is, it is wonderful.
Starting point is 01:23:49 I, there are a lot of things I want in my robot doll movies. So. Yeah. Screenplay by Akila Cooper and story by James Juan. Akila Cooper is known for malignant, which is another movie that was also kind of crazy and I love. I watched that when I was on a solo trip to California, San Francisco. We had to do some episode of Film Sack from, I was in the hotel doing it, and I had watched Malignant the night before.
Starting point is 01:24:21 It was really good. That's awesome. It's just fun. She also wrote, she produced 10, 10, let's see, yeah, 10 episodes of Star Trek Strange New Worlds and directed two of them, apparently a bit of a Trekkie. oh look at that yeah so obviously Megan's not streaming anywhere yet right
Starting point is 01:24:40 Megan is oh I I believe they're you know complex you could do the yeah they're complex ways to watch it 20 bucks if you want to rent it on Apple TV or Amazon or any of those
Starting point is 01:24:54 Google Play but yeah I think it's still in theaters like Duena I think so too yeah they really they had such a huge marketing push for that film you could not go anywhere without seeing stuff about Megan. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:08 And that creepy run, that creepy run that she does is just because she gets down on like, all four is like kind of like, uh, oh my God. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. What's his face, the mocap guy who can do that make it look like he's, uh, an ape and plenty of apes. Um, is there, uh, there's an, uh, what am I going to say here? Oh, yeah, Alison Williams from girls. Mm-hmm. Yeah, she's the mom.
Starting point is 01:25:35 And that other movie. The girl that I want to... Get out. The girl I want to call out here is... Where is her name? Is it? Violet McGraw. No, that's the daughter. The girl that plays is in the Megan suit.
Starting point is 01:25:49 Here she is. Annie Donald. That's who I'm curious about. She wears the mask and wears the kind of helmet, Megan helmet thing. But I saw an interview with her somewhere. She is awesome. What a cool kid.
Starting point is 01:26:01 She's in all those moves are hers. Like that dance. The way she... That freaky dance. I think the dance is freaker than the run, to be honest. Yeah. And she just seems like the sweetest kid. And she's like super athletic dancer kid, but she was like funny and was like embarrassed.
Starting point is 01:26:16 And it's like, oh, I hope people like it. And she was just such a nerd. I just, I really want to see it now just to see her performance. But anyway, that looks great. I want to see Megan. That's all I got. All right. It's a good list.
Starting point is 01:26:27 It's a good list, you guys. Working back from the holidays all the way up till current day, you'll know what to see because you heard it here first. Tell people about gore and where they can get it. So, gore is a horror podcast. And Yes, it is. Yeah. Is this this chat, GPT description

Starting point is 01:27:01 a dreadlord, otherwise known as Wesley, by the way. um yeah and we have we have a great time talking about a movie but we don't just talk about horror movies by the way we talk about horror games and horror books as well when stuff comes out because we're interested in all sorts of stuff yeah you like the gore it's right there in the name you like the gore yeah i like the gore i like the gore yeah so you can follow the show on twitter at gore podcast and find the show at anchor dot com slash gore podcast very very nice thank you wickie Kidden. Have a fantastic day and run back to work as fast as you can. Like Megan. Like Megan. Dance all the way there. All right. I did see that popped
Starting point is 01:27:43 up on a complex method of watching it. Yeah, I think I'm going to have to watch it in a very complex way. I couldn't sleep last night, so I watched Lost in Translation with Scarlett Johans and Bill Murray, which ironically is about two people who are having a hard time sleeping in Japan.
Starting point is 01:28:00 I didn't even think about that when I was like, see, this would be good because I don't mind dozing off. I woke up at 4.30. I'm like, I don't mind just dozing off while I watch this. And sadly, I watch the whole damn thing. It's a good movie, but I would have chosen it. I would have been a good choice because it seems like one that might lull you to sleep a little.
Starting point is 01:28:15 Not in a boring way, right? It's not like boring, just kind of chill. No, but it's a very mellow, chill movie, with the exception of the scene where the director's yelling at Bill Murray and Japanese to pose with the whiskey better, and the translator just comes over with, he'd like you to
Starting point is 01:28:31 a little faster, a little slower and more intense. Yeah. That's all he said. That's a good movie. I haven't seen that in a long time. Yeah. It's Sophia Coppola, right? It is, yes.
Starting point is 01:28:47 She, to me, that movie made her one of the greatest comeback stories ever because she's so... After the Godfather 3. She's so bad and Godfather 3 as an actor. That she's so good as a director was like, ah, okay, she'll be okay. Everything's fun. Oh, my God. Yeah. Virgin Suicides was really good, too.
Starting point is 01:29:03 Yeah. Should great. Yeah, the scene with the elliptical. I'd forget about that and I actually left out loud in the dark while I was watching that. It's pretty good. I may have to watch that too. All right. Let's move on.
Starting point is 01:29:15 We got, we're going to do, we're going to do App Sloppy, except where did I, I don't even know where I put the clip for that. Oh, there was. Okay. We haven't done this music in a while. But we're doing it now. Yeah, that's right. Get ready. App slappy.
Starting point is 01:29:31 Whoever in the chat room doesn't like apps, You can go away now, but for Brian and I, we like him. This is App Sloppy, where we talk about an app that we have enjoyed recently and talk about it on the show. So I'm going to talk about one that I've told Brian about like a month ago, but I haven't talked to anyone else about it. And the game on iOS and Android is called Pinetar. Or sorry, pine tar poker. Pintar poker. Yep.
Starting point is 01:29:57 And at first glance, you might look at it and go, oh, it looks like old-timey Western poker. the cards are a little ratty the chips look like they're made out of wood table yeah the tables glass of whiskey right next to you yeah if the music's like plunking away like it's a western or something and you would be right that is the motif they're going for but what you don't realize is there's two other things going on one it's poker mixed with yachtsy right which works incredibly well better than you might think way better than you might think and um other games have done it you know similar things where they mix that stuff. But what sets this
Starting point is 01:30:35 apart is that great gameplay, which is just fun in its own. Yeah. And this weird, overarching supernatural story, a little bit of oh, I don't know, elder gods kind of vibe to it that's happening. And you're getting
Starting point is 01:30:52 hints as to what's unfolding as you go. And you do that through things like, oh, I got this new weird trinket in the store. I don't know what it does, but you might want to try it and some of those might just give you advantages during the game, but they're from sort of supernatural or unnatural sources. And so as the game goes on, you're kind of fed this kind of story arc as you go.
Starting point is 01:31:14 You also unlock things like being able to spend your gold on basically betting whether you're going to win or not. So there's like a little mini gambling game in there. I think this game is great. I think just even the pure gameplay of it is good enough on its own. So if you don't even care about that other stuff, You're going to find a lot to like here, but if you like, you know, kind of that taking Westerns and inserting other genres into it, you'll also like it quite a bit, I think. And I ended up recommending it to Brian. He ended up really liking it. Everybody I've had try it has loved it.
Starting point is 01:31:48 It's, you know, and like you say, as you start playing, and it's very difficult at beginning because it's like, oh, Yatsi with cards. And obviously, there are far more cards that you're trying to get specific hands. but yeah as you start unlocking those other bonuses and those other things that help you it's like oh okay this gets a lot easier i'm stuck i've got got the taro like basically my tarot is just all giving me like very vague things not telling me specific hands that i need to get but it's like yeah my current my tarot right now says oh kings of man are not the true kings or something like that yeah that doesn't help me at all i mean obviously something regarding kings but right what do i need like five kings or something so i need a whatnot to to give me a little bit of a nut she says he beat it two days ago oh did he okay yeah there's
Starting point is 01:32:38 there's uh i'm about where you are stuck wise uh and it it does get weird like it gets weird yeah oh but from just a like purity of gameplay play stance i think this game is really rad and it's only three bucks you'll never get an ad or any of that crap it's just a hundred percent like a pay for it and get it and play it app which are far too rare these days and uh i like supporting those kind of devs so i'm going to recommend this very highly again it is called pine tar poker um showing some video of it right now so people can see it and uh you cannot go wrong if you've been if you've been like in the desert for a while going man there's no good games anymore why is there hasn't been one of these in a while well this one's real good and it'll treat your time well
Starting point is 01:33:20 it respects your time um has a great art style great vibe just awesome So anyway, Pine Car Poker, available wherever you get your apps, either Android or iOS, you're good to go. All right. Brian, what did you bring today? Mine is a numbers game. I'm playing a numbers game, Scott, the long con. But this is, like, if you're a fan of stuff like Kikuro and Sudoku and things like that, this is right up the alley. Instead of, you know, nine little three-by-three grids, you're dealing with one grid of varying sizes.
Starting point is 01:33:56 depending on the difficulty level and you're given numbers on the right side and the bottom and what those numbers tell you is that so each row and column contains numbers and exactly two blocks and you have to figure out where to put the two blocks the rest of the spaces will all be individual numbers one two, three, four, five, you know, all the way up to
Starting point is 01:34:20 I think the biggest one I've done is five or six and so there'll be each of those numbers represented and the two blocks depending on the size of the grid what the numbers on the side tell you is what the total is if you add up the numbers between the two blocks so using logic you have to figure out all right i know there's one block here and uh to get a sum of seven it always requires two or three numbers to be added together so i know there's at least two numbers between that and the next block so i know these over here are numbers and basically you're filling in what you what you know. Now, when you play Sudoku and you've got like, all right, this set of nine squares,
Starting point is 01:35:03 uh, I know that this right here is a two and this over here is a four, but what goes in all those other ones? And you put in little tiny numbers that say, all right, well, this can be one five or six and this one can be, and you have to do that little tiny numbers. This game does all that for you. So it fills in as you're playing what all those other little possible. numbers could be until you get the actual number that's in there. It is, it sounds confusing, but it has got the most brilliant tutorial that walks you through how to play. You will, you will understand not just how to play the game, but also what things to look
Starting point is 01:35:41 for beyond the obvious as you try to solve it. Do we give it a, I don't think we said the name. Do you say the name? What's the name of this thing? Did I say the name? Samaddle. No, I don't think I did say the name. It's shit out of luck.com, Christine.
Starting point is 01:35:53 the game is called Summattle As long as we say it at the end That's the important thing If we say at the beginning We don't say it ever again That's a problem Yeah there you go
Starting point is 01:36:00 Sumaddle S-U-M-A-D-D-L-E As far as I know Only available on On the app store The Apple App Store I don't think this is on Android But you can play it online
Starting point is 01:36:14 I believe Maybe not Do you have a web version That'd be cool I'm on the Sum-Adle page and it doesn't look like I thought there might be like a version
Starting point is 01:36:26 you could play on the page this dude Jonathan is it Buchanan hold on what's his last name Jonathan the creator of this is crap I had his name and now I lost it Jonathan Buchanan he apparently is one dude did this
Starting point is 01:36:43 so whenever whenever if you're an Android person you're like oh man they didn't do it for what you do is you reach out you find this guy's Twitter account and then you hound him until he makes an Android that's what you do that's how you get it done this is this game is so
Starting point is 01:36:58 so fun and so addicting and as you're like as you kind of figure out a new like you get all the basics in there all the basic numbers and blocks that you've kind of figured out and then you've got these all these other empty spaces you're trying to figure out you're like all right well how do I tell what this you know if this space is going to be a block or a number
Starting point is 01:37:15 and then you figure out some new method and you kind of put it in your arsenal of like, oh, whenever I see this, I know it has to be a block or a number or whatever. Yeah, it's... Oh, I like the art in this is good. The art is great. It's almost like a cut paper, foxes and trees and stuff.
Starting point is 01:37:38 It's, uh, this is so, so good. Samaddle, S-U-M-A-D-L-E. Yep. And, uh, I'm going to play this. I just downloaded it. You're going to love it. Yeah. Okay. Good toilet time right there.
Starting point is 01:37:51 I'll tell you what. For sure, yeah. I mean, if you do an expert level, you're going to come off that thing with hemorrhoids. So if you're doing it on the toilet, stick to easy and meeting. All right, for all of our shit out of luckers.comers, once again, it was pine tar poker for me,
Starting point is 01:38:07 iOS and IOS and iPadOS, of course, on Android as well. And Brian brought somattel to the table for iOS. Yes. And all of that will be at quicktms. I today. So you can follow along. All right. Okay.
Starting point is 01:38:21 We have a quick phone call I'd like to play. This is regarding Brian's sound system issues. Oh, yeah, sure, which I've resolved, but I'll explain that after. Oh, good. All right, so here's his suggestion. And he has me tempted a little, but anyway, here it is. This is Joe Acosta calling, and I'm calling about Brian's sound setup with the 4K pass-through on the receiver. I just wanted to make a suggestion, Brian, if you do plan at some point.
Starting point is 01:38:51 to make the investment and you are not completely married to a 7.1 system, I have been using the full-size Apple Home Pods for about two years now, and absolutely love them. With the pair in stereo, it will cost you about the cost of a receiver, but it's only two speakers. It's filled the room with a terrific sound, great face to the point that I can actually make things in the living room rattle, when I'm watching a movie.
Starting point is 01:39:22 And best of all, it uses E-Ark that will allow you then to push audio from any device plugged into your television back through the audio setup. Have a great day, guys. What do you think of that idea? Cool. I love that idea. So I might need to do something like this because in this whole process, so basically we have done about the just longer 4K, really it's high speed, HDMI cables, doesn't have
Starting point is 01:39:51 B4K, but anything marked high speed for HDMI cables. So now we've got video going from the Apple TV to the TV itself and then, or video going from one and then coming back to the EARC port on the receiver. In doing this, I've discovered that my center speaker has blown out. And so you get a little bit of when people are talking a little bit of reverb, like it, you know,
Starting point is 01:40:21 You can tell that sound that the speaker makes when it's, when it's blown out. Sure. So I'm thinking, well, do I want to just replace that speaker? Because these are the ones that came with the house. They are built into the wall, and they are pain in the butt to remove and replace because they're like a proprietary size that the construction company got super cheap. And I don't want to do that. This is how we are about our security system when we got here, our intercom system. They are, it's so embedded.
Starting point is 01:40:49 Yes. It sucks. trying to change that. Yes. So I am, and we've got a fairly good-sized mantle. Oh, I could even do it through the back. I might even do it through the back.
Starting point is 01:41:01 But anyway, here's my question. The, you know, the home pods don't have a, they just have power. They don't have an audio, it's all wireless. So how do you? Oh, I thought they did have an in. Don't they have them physical input? Do they have an audio input?
Starting point is 01:41:18 I thought they did. I've got the spherical home pod. I don't have the full-size home pods. I thought they did it. Now that you say that, that could be a problem. That could be a problem. Well, even that, how do I get the audio from, and I'm assuming, obviously, I go through the TV to the home pods.
Starting point is 01:41:37 How do I get the audio? Basically, that's the question. How do I get the audio from the TV, the home pods? Or do I just use the Apple TV's wireless and do it via Bluetooth or whatever it is? Well, if it's Apple TV, I think you'll have no trouble with the Bluetooth. side so it'll work, but I just verified these do not have an ox in or out which surprises
Starting point is 01:41:57 me. Not really though Apple likes to make everything wireless, but they do exactly. But if you've got to, like people with older TVs or devices that aren't necessarily going to pipe through that, that's a thing to consider. Like my TV, I don't know what my TV does. I assume my
Starting point is 01:42:12 TV also does Bluetooth. My TV does not have Bluetooth. So it has to be there we go. Use HomePod. So now when Apple TV and HomePod are in the same room, you can choose to use HomePod as the Home Theater speakers for this Apple TV. Right. I have a pair of, oh, here we go. The EAR goes to the Apple TV, the Apple TV then sends it to the HomePod pair.
Starting point is 01:42:34 And Disturb Angel, I assume, like, just as Bluetooth. Yeah, it would have to be Bluetooth, right? Yeah, yeah, I mean, obviously Apple TV does Bluetooth or even, I mean, just can be Wi-Fi, I guess. Wi-Fi. Bluetooth is going to be better latency for near device stuff. But the thing is like if your TV, so let's say that, okay, so that all sounds good. But what if you're playing stuff through your PlayStation and you're like, I need that same sound, are you screwed?
Starting point is 01:43:04 Because you're, where do you have to Bluetooth to those from the PlayStation? Probably would, yeah. So that's funky. So that could be the problem. Yeah, TV is much, with TV with Bluetooth is so much easier. But if you don't have it, and a lot of people don't, I don't know. That seems complicated. I mean, I know other devices can do, like Google devices can still find your airplay devices and send sound to them.
Starting point is 01:43:31 So I wonder if PlayStation has a way of sending out music. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, that would be a problem. That could be an issue or other, you know, just depends on what kind of components you end up using. The solution here would be Apple should just have an input jack on those things. for sure for sure bastards so i think i'm going to try uh i'm going to try since i don't want to replace that center speaker i've got these two like i said the two spherical home pods the home dots or whatever home pod mini yeah i'm going to try those i know they don't sound as good as the new home
Starting point is 01:44:05 pods they just released which i hear are fantastic yeah they're supposed to be amazing and you pair up two of them it's supposed to be insane but that's like 1200 bucks yeah it's yeah it's expensive They're like 600 each. Yeah, they're really, well, they're, nah. Maybe you're at 400, 450. Still, it's a chunk, right? It's a chunk. And they do sound insane.
Starting point is 01:44:26 Everybody, everything I've read is like, oh, these things are next level. And I want one. I want at least one. Yeah. If not too. Exactly. Anyway, all right. I'll try and let you know rather than play the, yeah, I'll try and let you know.
Starting point is 01:44:40 All right. Let you guys know what happens. In the meantime, let us know what happens when you go to patreon.com slash TMS in a new month and you click join because you'll suddenly be without commercials ever and you'll get brand new content every day pre-show and post content every

So go check it out. right now at patreon.com slash tms and if you're looking for anything else related to the show or us or anything it's all coagulated at frogpants.com slash tms like a blood vessel sending its blood yeah oh oh ew don't let that clot loose if that clot gets loose we're all dead all right so just go use it for whatever it's worth uh that'll do it for today's show uh we should probably get out of here but we can't do any of that before we play a song so can we do that first okay we can do that by the way 299 each for home pods for the new current home pod so 300 bucks
Starting point is 01:45:46 which 600 bucks about the same price i'd be doing with a with a speaker so i might try and figure out a way to do this might work i i am sorely tempted plus i can move those around you know yes yes all right let's get to a request here uh this one goes out to uh the other person having a birthday i mentioned at the very beginning peter fisher uh wrote in said hello say and Borage, or Borage, which are herbs. At the end of my 50-second rotation on the celestial body known as Earth, I once again beseech the Bergamister of covers
Starting point is 01:46:22 to make my 52nd birthday complete with a song, the Bergamister. Kind of hungry now. I'd like a cover which has a dramatic tempo and genre shift from the original, like the Gimmy Gimmies, Seasons, and the Sun, or Hasey Dixie's cover if I don't feel like dancing. And if possible, have the cover
Starting point is 01:46:37 in one of the following genres. Power Pop, Rock, reggae, ska, bluegrass, or orchestral, thank you. So many demands, really. So many demands.

Starting point is 01:47:26 But anyway, the undergrass, keep your undergrass trimmed, really, as I like to tell you. Oh, always, yeah, for sure. This is from their self-titled album. It's a cover of Ruby Tuesday by the Rolling Stones, done a bluegrass style, going out to Peter Fisher. Thank you.
