Starting point is 00:00:34 I'm going to show you how McDonald's builds a Big Mac sandwich. It starts here with a lightly toasted bun, and then a pure beef hamburger. Sizzling hot, a slice of cheddar blend cheese, and some crisp fresh lettuce. Then our own secret sauce, the club slides, toasted. Another hamburger, and a little more sauce just for good flavor. Crisp dill pickles and the sesame seed crown. You may pause the tape now to practice on your computer. The morning stream.
Starting point is 00:01:13 Tear out bad wood, put in goodwood. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to TMS. It's the morning stream for Wednesday, June 21st, 2023. I'm Scott Johnson, and that is Brian Ibeck. Good morning, Brian. Hello, hello, hello. Hello. Hello. Hello. That's what my dad used to do, by the way.
Starting point is 00:01:37 Oh, my gosh. Look at that. He's coming. I just could not. I was trying to get my hello out before the sneeze. Do you guys have, we're, we had all that wind and now everyone sneezes every few minutes. Yes. We are sneezing like crazy over here in Colorado land as well. Yeah. Yeah, this single mountain that divides us. Well, it's a mountain range. But this single mountain range that divides us, sometimes we get to share each other's pollen, wind, rain, snow. Everything. And if we get Canadian smoke, we make sure to share it with everybody, with you guys too.
Starting point is 00:02:08 That's right. Would you like some of our Canadian smoke? I'll take some of your Canadian smoke, too. That'd be great. Yeah. Thanks, Canada, for all your bullshit. We appreciate it. That's right.
Starting point is 00:02:15 We're here. We got a show to do. It's Wednesday. And if it feels like a short week, well, it is. We didn't have a show Monday. So, you know, we're really just barreling through it here. excuse me and we've got a few things to get through
Starting point is 00:02:27 today's recommendals day Tom will be here it's a busy Tom I got feud coming up later yeah lots of lots of busyness so we're going to rip right through this stuff we got a call to start things off with
Starting point is 00:02:37 and it's a bit of a recommendal from a fan I guess so I'll just play it and we'll see if we have some interest in this here you go I am listening to 2471 I had to pull over this is game blips or Fred from Wisconsin there's a trend
Starting point is 00:02:52 um yeah so my guilty pleasure michael man movie if you haven't seen it you've got to watch band of the hand it's really good um and it's kind of in that peak time of michael man all like uh miami blice and everything else so yeah love the show keep on doing what you're doing thanks guys so is it band of the hand i think band of the hand there it is band of the hand nineteen eighty six yep stephen lang michael carmine lauren holly rather john cameron Mitchell, a few others. I don't know a thing about this movie, but I love I don't either. I love me some Michael Mann business. Yeah. But it says it was directed by Paul Michael Glazier. Right, not
Starting point is 00:03:36 by Michael Man. So did Michael Man write this? Did he have anything to do with it? I'm trying to pull it up. It is something is hanging something fierce for me. Let's try it from IMDB. Yeah, there we go. Weird.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Wikipedia not working? Wikipedia was not working. It was just hanging. Did I not make a, did I not make enough of a donation? Yeah, what's going on over there? What's the guy's name? I can't remember. Who's always fighting with Elon Musk. Can't think of his name. Exactly. I cannot find any connection to Michael Mann. I think he may have mixed up the deal. Yeah. You know what? I'm going to take a look really quick to see movies that Michael Mann, if there's a similar movie, a movie with a similar name that Michael Mann is
Starting point is 00:04:21 produced. Good question. Let's see here. 86-ish, so it's Miami Vice-ish time, TV-wise. Let's see. I thought I'd seen everything Michael Mann had made, but I haven't seen Ali. I never saw that movie. The Will Smith Boxing Business. I can't remember what
Starting point is 00:04:37 I thought of it. Was it good? Was it bad? That's the thing. Okay, here's what you got. 81 Thief. Oh, executive producer of Band of the Hand. Oh, there we go, executive producer. Okay. So some connection there. All right.
Starting point is 00:04:51 From the makers of Miami Vice, it even says on the poster, but Michael, Paul Michael Glazier, who maybe is... Wonder if we can find that on streaming and add it to an upcoming film sack. Did you know that Paul,
Starting point is 00:05:04 okay, now we're getting weird. Paul Michael Glazier. Yes. I don't like saying his name. Best known as, his role as Detective Dave Starsky and Starsky and Hutch. Yeah, along with David's soul.
Starting point is 00:05:17 Okay. well look at that guy doing shit got things to do doing shit they're currently not not quote unquote free streaming anywhere but it's rentable on on Apple TV and Amazon and all those places well there you have it thank you for the recommend I'll keep an eye out for that one I'm sure Randy's listening he'll add that to the list I would like that's a great idea I like I would like to register a complaint if I might oh please do yeah let's see if I've got a little something for that let's see we'll do this thing try no no there we'll do that here's my complaint okay um we go to this place once in a while
Starting point is 00:05:55 called aubergine you probably have them i'm guessing that's a never heard of it kind of a chain but their their their whole focus is like healthy you know it's just eggplants right why not call it eggplant they sure could but they don't anyway they have these salad they make a really good tri-tip salad which is what i almost always get and kim always gets these rice bowl things they make They're just really good food. And they also make these incredibly good and impossible to stop eating. So don't buy too many of them. These little, I don't know how they're made, but there's these bread balls that have cheese in them.
Starting point is 00:06:33 And then they're baked like that. And they're incredible. They're so good. I don't even know how to explain these balls. They're so good. And you get one with your meal no matter what. It's just their signature thing. Or you can buy a bag of six of them as just a separate side, right?
Starting point is 00:06:50 Think about the size of a hush puppy? Yeah, a little bigger. But you're on point there about that, about like that. Bigger than a donut hole for sure. But not too big. Anyway, so they're really, really good. And we got, we ordered an extra bag of them because we wanted to take some home to Carter. Because she was out doing some stuff.
Starting point is 00:07:11 We're like, hey, we'll bring some stuff to Carter when we're done. Went out there just for Kim and I, just have dinner. because she went she's on a plane this morning she's on her way to minneapolis to see windy and and uh celebrate her daughter's birthday her niece's birthday so there's you know last night we're like well let's go out and hang out for bed before you leave and and stuff so anyway we get there and the as we we do our order and while we're doing our order some lady comes kind of busting past us uh-huh a customer's like excuse me excuse me she's i'm like well where are you going we're we're in the line here where are you headed she goes
Starting point is 00:07:45 to the front, she goes, I still haven't gotten my breadballs. And the thing to mention about these breadballs is they're always in such demand that when you order them, often they say, a new batch in the oven will hurry as quick as we can. They go quick, right? So they're always running out because they're popular. And she goes, oh, no, they're still in the oven. We're working on them. They'll be done soon.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Yours is the first batch out. And she goes, okay, I just thought maybe you forgot. And she goes, no, no, no, we got you. She says, okay, I'm just going to be right over there. And she points at her table. I'm like, oh, my Lord, I hate every second of this. So, so sucks. So anyway, she goes back.
Starting point is 00:08:21 She sits down. And the whole time she just sort of staring over there, checking her watch, looking over there, just not enjoying her meal. Excuse me. Bless you. And so we ordered them when we got up there. And here's two things we notice. One, they bring us our bag and put it on the tray because this batch just came out.
Starting point is 00:08:43 And ahead of that, they have a whole other bag. for this lady and two other people that have been waiting. Sure. And one girl hands us our stuff. The other girl is headed toward their table. Towards the lady. Right. To take her bag. This lady sees me and Kim with our bag.
Starting point is 00:08:59 That you get it on your tray. Yeah. She thinks that's her bag. Oh, no. So she goes, she gets this face. I'm keeping an eye on her, right? I got a little side eye going because I just know this is going to get weird. And she comes over there and while pointing at our bag,
Starting point is 00:09:17 she goes, this is unacceptable. This right here is unacceptable. You gave that, you told me, meanwhile, there's a girl literally at her table with her bag. Probably at her table with her other people. Yeah. And the manager goes, no, she's right there with your bag. And she turns around and goes,
Starting point is 00:09:32 well, it is about time and then stomps off. Yeah, because she couldn't because saying, oh, you know what, I'm sorry. I guess I overreacted would be too much for this lady. It's like, well, I've got it. We'll continue complaining. Yeah, I was so irritated. I just about threw a big fat double bird right in her face.
Starting point is 00:09:49 I didn't do it. But I felt bad for that girl. A little breadball on the finger and go, here's your red ball. Yeah, here's your bread. Would you like this one? Eat it right off my middle finger, lady. Yeah, exactly. So we went up and gave a nice tip and all that.
Starting point is 00:10:02 Oh, it's a Utah thing. I didn't know that. Yep. They're very good. If they branch out, you'll all be happy about it because food's great. They look like sweet green. Sweet greens. Yeah, they're one of those where you go through kind of a,
Starting point is 00:10:13 a thing and they say okay do you want your pinini with and they kind of do it that way but all the food is knock out great and those balls are insane they're cracking a ball oh they're so good and maybe that's what you know what I'll let me
Starting point is 00:10:29 I'll judge her behavior a little less harshly not much but a little less harshly because maybe those balls are really addicting and I understand you wanting your balls you know you want them bad she's actually starting to sweat she's got the shakes a little bit yeah yeah she was going through
Starting point is 00:10:48 some stuff over there so anyway it was lame but we enjoyed our meal and she left before we did which was fine oh and she left a huge mess and didn't take her stuff over oh i hate that oh this was a real she was a challenge i could tell and her husband was just like this guy who's head with down the whole time and i got the feeling while i was around him as i walked past him it was like this aura of i've made a mistake that's the that's the feeling i got from that guy good luck to him All right, quick PSA, pardon your dust, which is a P-O-D, PSA-P-O-D, the Discord's going through some changes, the community Discord, and it's all good stuff that it's going to take a while to sort of suss out and make sense of, but basically Discord introduced the option to convert your channel or your Discord servers to be community servers. And what that meant effectively, it's actually not as much change as you think. basically means that in addition to the text channels,
Starting point is 00:11:46 which are just chat channels, right? That's really what those are, just chat channels. It now supports forums and like some other sub stuff like, oh, I can go create a forum post about a thing. And so instead of your chat getting lost in the mess, you have an actual topic people can go to and talk about it. So they basically embedded forums into Discord. and some other features as well
Starting point is 00:12:15 but yeah yeah it's cool it is taking me a little while to get used to I'm trying to figure things out and also I don't you know basically you have to
Starting point is 00:12:23 I think you have to if you want to follow a forum as far as I can tell you have to put a message in them and then you'll start getting it'll start lighting up highlighting when new things are added to that you know how you'd get
Starting point is 00:12:36 like you would go from being gray to white bold and you'd be able to say oh something new just got posted in such and such channel um if you post something in there then you'll you'll start getting notifications yeah and it's basically a replacement for the horrible threading system they used to do oh i guess you can i guess you can still do threads but no one ever uses those um but yeah you're you're you're right there is a way to
Starting point is 00:12:58 overall like if you you click on uh the group forum and then you can see all the all the stuff in a shot and then start contributing or add your own so it's it's it's just a different there's just some different stuff some people hate change and i understand that But also, we're not taking away the text channels. So if you want to just stay in the chat channel of whatever channel it is, you're in the core group and you just want to be at pound core dash chat and never leave, you're good. It works the way it always did.
Starting point is 00:13:27 You're still in the right place. Yeah, exactly. But if you want to have these deeper dives, like they did a Nintendo Direct core forum post that everybody hopped into this morning during the live Nintendo Direct. And that was really fun to see because there's tons of conversation in here that we otherwise wouldn't have sort of isolated in its own conversation. Exactly. And then, yeah, and then if somebody said, hey, what's the name of that game that
Starting point is 00:13:49 Bill Duran always talks about? All that stuff would go right out of view. Exactly. You're absolutely right. So instead of it being, you know, it's just a combination of two things. Is it kind of unwieldy? Yes. Is Discord always unwieldy? Of course it is. That's one of its hallmarks. It's always been a bit of a
Starting point is 00:14:05 nightmare. But Tanner in particular is doing a ton of work on this and hats off to him for doing the brunt of it. But anyway, Just letting you know, part in our dust a little bit. You're not even really complain. It's just, hey, this is the way I've always been used to it. I now have to have a wider window because I keep it a little narrow.
Starting point is 00:14:24 You know how I organize my screen. Oh, yeah, yeah. The narrow window, like the forum things get lost under the forum thing. So if I want to switch to form, I have to close, come back in, and then click the other form. So there is a way to do, there's a way to have it shift over. Mine shift over. Once I had a post, Then now I get it in the sub menus, and I can do that.
Starting point is 00:14:45 So the ones I follow, the ones I have the forms that I want to check out, I can just do that for. So it's not a big deal. And yeah, kudos to Tanner for sending all this stuff. Yeah, thank you, Tanner, once again, for helping me work this through. Also, everybody who hates it, again, your text channels are all there. It's all good. Oh, another benefit. The stages are really cool.
Starting point is 00:15:08 So instead of, not that we're going to ever have 10,000 people in a couch party. or anything else but stages work differently in community than they did when they were just rooms where you'd go into they had a cap of like 25 people before now it's like 10,000 or something can go in there and they don't and it got rid of the sounds where you log when people come in it doesn't make a bunch of noise and when they leave it doesn't make a bunch of noise these are like legitimate it's like a legitimate one person talks and anybody can be in there to listen or watch or whatever so there's a bunch of other things like that we're going to dink around with but cool Oh, I can't wait to see this week for Couch Party how that all looks.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Yeah, it should be good. So if you are at all curious about any of this and you haven't joined yet, join our community Discord over at frogpans.com slash Discord. And we would love to have you there. Okay. Now, this. Yes. Dunnoy probably done with his meeting.
Starting point is 00:16:02 I don't know. I hope so. He has a message back to say that he's done, but let me see if he, oh, he's in the game, so I think that's a good sign. Oh, that's a great sign. That gives me hope, Brian. Yeah, me too. He's going to pop in here and be a part of this,
Starting point is 00:16:14 although we're getting the rings of ringage and no rings of speakage. We'll give that a minute. Boy, I wonder if Daryl knows the impact he had on the rings of ringage. I wonder if he does. It's like to love the show, though, lady. You know, she may have no idea what long-lasting effect she's had on the goings on here. The only person that knows truly the effect of their meme probably is I don't like bees from Ann Arbor. Yes, he absolutely.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Because he listens, right? he still checks the show out. He still listens and I think he's even left follow-up messages that that maybe even reference the I don't like. Yeah, this is all true. I think Mr. Donno White, Mr. Donno White. That's right. He's come to Discord.
Starting point is 00:16:55 No answer yet. Let's try ringing him again. Maybe we're screwed. Don't know. His meetings are often volatile and difficult to master. I'll tell you what, though, while we're doing this, one of you needs to ping me in Discord so I can add you as a guest today. win prizes if you do. I'll take the third person. All you have to do is send me a private
Starting point is 00:17:16 Discord message right now and be ready to talk on Mike. No video needed. You don't have to do anything fancy. You just pop in there. Oh, there's Dunaway right now. We still need that person, though. We still need our competitors. So keep us coming. Here's this. Hey, look who it is. Brian Dunaway. Join us for Tad Pooley Feud for a Wednesday. Hi, Brian. How are you? oh hi scott and brian how's it going good how was your meeting it was fine but i'm not late because the meeting oh you're not oh why were you late what happened taking a ship actually the meeting ended okay and then i was i had i rushed home

Starting point is 00:18:28 You left some stupid cat hair behind. I was like, so I just, that's why I wipe my hand to just kind of like knock it off. And nope, wasn't hair. It was shit. That's right. My cat had picked up, I guess, whenever he was in the litter box, he's a long-haired cat, so I guess he must have had someone his butt or foot or whatever. So he basically had to paint the table with long strands that looked like hair, but we're really... Smeared it across the table, and it's all over my hand, and I'm saying, ah! Oh, my gosh. This all happened while we were calling you? Like, while we called you, you were dealing with this?
Starting point is 00:19:00 Yeah, the phone's in the background. And I'm like, I'm having a bad time. Yeah, you are. Well, I hope you had time to sufficiently sanitize your hands at the least. No, I took some freaking lysol wipes, and I'm like spray on alcohol. I got my little epoxy alcohol 99% spray in my hand. I'm like, oh, God, oh, dear Jesus. Yeah, that's gnarly.

Starting point is 00:21:56 garliced up or drinking coffee all day or whatever. Really? Garlic doesn't bother me. I can see bad coffee, but garlic just kind of stays garlic the whole time, right? It doesn't get worse. Well, yeah, but it gets, unless you're in it. Like, let's say you both had a ton of garlic.
Starting point is 00:22:09 You both better have garlic. Yeah. If only one does, freaking F that. I don't want that. All right, but you know what I like the answer? What's here is nicely with garlic? Anything? Maybe you drink a little red wine maybe for yourself and then they...
Starting point is 00:22:21 Red what? A little pasta before you make out. Give me a kiss. Yeah. All right. I'll go, yeah, I like that. Let's do it. Let's go down the breath aisle. Show me anything breath related. Yeah, bad breath, vomit, breath, milk breath.
Starting point is 00:22:36 I combine all those into one. Milk breath. Someone's remembering my Jennifer Aniston rant. That's fantastic. Yeah. Any people actually mention Jennifer Aniston specifically in their response. I still feel a little bad about putting her out there like that. But anyway, whatever.
Starting point is 00:22:53 All right, let's think. What else? Uh, oh, how about, um, as when someone's nose is whistling, that grosses me out. Hmm. I've talked about it a couple of times, but when they're like, when they, you breathe in or out, I hate that. Yeah. So is that on there? Okay.
Starting point is 00:23:15 I don't like this response. This sounds bad. I think I'm going to lose it. Yeah. All right. Uh, show me nose whistling. I'm going to begin to give it to you. boogers
Starting point is 00:23:26 or eating enclosed eating yeah boogers and eating of boogers all right so no stuff
Starting point is 00:23:36 no stuff I got you no stuff no stuff yeah I could have just like combine all those into nose stuff no this is good because now I think I understand
Starting point is 00:23:44 that we can say things like blank stuff yeah I think I've got one but I don't know that it's going to be in the top 10 I feel like
Starting point is 00:23:52 earbuds on the wiener is probably was listed even if it's not top 10. Well, okay, so let's suss that out. I feel like you're right. Are we in the right time frame? Like, it's such an old TMS reference.
Starting point is 00:24:06 I wonder who's heard it. But you know what? I feel good about it. Weiner earbuds. Yeah. Weiner earbuds, Brian. All right. All right.
Starting point is 00:24:13 Show me Wiener earbuds. Oh, come on. That was a good one. It's a good one. And I basically combined anything referencing Weiner into one man-weener category, and that was number 18. Number 18.
Starting point is 00:24:27 Well, that's good. Because I'm not that grossed out by manwainers. They're fine. They're fine. I mean, all of us right here right now have one. It's fine. They exist. It's just when people do...
Starting point is 00:24:39 Stop thinking about my manwiner. It's when people do weird things with them that I struggle with. Do you see our post in the Discord here? Do you see that shot of Ig-Up? I did see that... See that man-weener? I got to cry. crop that one down and spread it far and wide disturbed it's so bad anyway uh all right over to you
Starting point is 00:25:04 brian what uh well got out the most there's there's two things that scott always it seems to bring up that i remember um but i always is a tms so sometimes the tadpully gets a little more uh of that that i do because i'm doing stupid stuff during that time of course um but sky often complains about feet stuff. Oh, that's a good one. Yeah, I don't like the feats in the face and get that wiener out of my face, dude. The whole Tarantino thing.
Starting point is 00:25:31 Yeah, not a, not my... Feet are gross. You're absolutely right. This is a good call. All right. Show me your feet. Better yet, don't show me your feet. Number two answer.
Starting point is 00:25:42 I'm not trying to yuck anybody's yum out there, okay? Everybody, I think feet are gross. I'm not telling you how to think. All right. I just think feet are gross. All right, Brian, you're on a run here. What else you got? Scott does seem to have an oral fixation thing, like boogers eating, bad breath, fingers in the mouth.
Starting point is 00:25:58 So I feel like it's got to be, when I think he thinks about feet, I think he probably thinks about sticking him in his mouth. And he's like, I'm, maybe that's what it gross. Well, I didn't, just so there aren't words in my mouth that I didn't say, I didn't say boogers eating at all. I said, I think I said whistling nose. Yeah, they did. And I don't know why. That's how we see you. It is gross.
Starting point is 00:26:17 Eating boogers. It is gross, but it's not a fixation that I don't think about. a story at one point of like a little kid that like you saw one point eating a bugger pulling a bugger out of his nose and then eating or something. Maybe probably enough people said it that it couldn't have just come out of nowhere. And we've all had kids. We've had to
Starting point is 00:26:33 tell them to get your finger out of your nose. You know, it's a thing. It's a deal. All right. So you're saying I'm actually saying that it's going to be mouse stuff. I think it's whenever an actor freaks out on film sack and spits all over somebody, he has a problem with that usually. It's like sometimes that's the gross thing.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Okay. All right. You might have to get lumpy with this one, but yeah, I really don't like those. Is that too vague? It's a little too, well, it doesn't fit the things that I pair things down to. Okay, okay, that's fine. I can choose something else. Yeah, let me, I'm just going to tell you right now, reword it, take some stuff out, put some stuff in, I don't care, but give you something else. I'm not going to give you a strike I think Scott has a problem with big nipples
Starting point is 00:27:26 What? Do I? I'm just saying he's mentioned it a couple of times He's very fascinated with nipples And the larger they are, the more disturbed I don't like, yeah, you know what? I don't like big, roided out, pokey ones Like the guys who get all roided up
Starting point is 00:27:42 And then their nipples stick out like three inches Those guys, I don't like that Yeah, you're right, this is a good one. All right. I like it. Dinner plate size nickels, nickels, nipples. And he can't not lie. All right, show me.
Starting point is 00:27:55 I really got to rephrase the way I'm doing the show me here. If it's on the board, please show me the tile that contains big nipples. No. That's a shame. No, surprisingly not even, I don't see any. No nipple reference. Maybe that's me then. Maybe I'm thinking of me that has the nipple problem.
Starting point is 00:28:18 I don't know. Yeah. You might. You might. You have a nipple problem. You heard it here first, everybody. All right, back. Go over to Windmagus and Scott.
Starting point is 00:28:27 What else you got? Has anything popped in your head, Winmegas, since we last spoke, you and I? No, but we have this chat here that has some great answers. Braimbo-bright suggests vomiting or smacking mouth. I do not like either of those. I'll bet that because of my barf, I'll bet because of the barf streak,
Starting point is 00:28:51 conversations we're always having that I haven't puked since 2005. I clearly hate it because there's been times where I should have and still didn't. I would I would air on the side of that. Let's say barfing, Brian. Barfing. Show me barfing. Again, maybe don't show me barfing. But yeah, number four answer on the board. Show me a barfing. Yeah. I really am a, I'm, I'm, I have a, something in my physiology just refuses to let me puke. It's, I don't know what it's about, but it's weird. And it's the, Yeah, but then it's also like the going up and talking to somebody right after you puke, like a movie where somebody pukes right after. Oh, and then they go, yeah, now they're making out somehow or talking somebody's games.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Oh, geez, I hate that so much. That should be number one, by the way. It's number five. That's vomit breath, right? I do see another, I do see another fantastic one. What do you got? Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:29:45 Red Link says airplane toilets, but I think public bathrooms in general. That's good. No, that's good. I don't like them. I avoid them. That's good. Let's do it. Show me airplane bathrooms, public toilets. One of those. Oh, man. Oh, that's too bad. It was number 11 was airplane bathrooms. So it was the very next thing was airplane.
Starting point is 00:30:09 That's a surprise to me. And we talked about those a lot. I really hate public bathrooms. I know. Yeah. When we have all the answers revealed here, it will be interesting to talk about what made it on the list. and what didn't. Yeah, for sure. I'm going with strings of spittle. Strings of spittle. The new orchestra album. All right.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Show me strings of spittle. Oh. Yeah, number six. There you go. This is like the post kiss string of spit connection between the kisser's lips. I do hate that. Most exemplified by Sarah Michelle Gillar and, and I, Salma Blair in
Starting point is 00:30:52 true, no, condition, what confession? True condition. True conditions. True confession of a condition. Ask your, after if true conditions are right for you. Conditional confection. Real quick here, you know, the new Guardians movie, which I still haven't seen, I want to in theaters before it leaves.
Starting point is 00:31:11 There is something that grosses me out about that movie and I've only seen it in the trailer. And this will tell you a lot about me, I think, and spit, because spit is gross. there's a scene where it's kind of a close-up of Chris Pratt screaming. I don't know what he's upset about. Oh, he's crying. Yeah, so he's crying, and his mouth's kind of wide open.
Starting point is 00:31:29 He's going to, and yelling. Yeah. And that shot has two big old wobbly spit strings hanging in his mouth that are like wobble into the sound. It's horrible. It's horrible. You may, of all the Chris's, you're now the grossest. Quit doing that. I'll bet when you see that movie, you don't, in that scene, you don't even think about it.
Starting point is 00:31:50 Okay, good. That's good to know. No spoilers, everybody. No spoilers. Okay. I'm leaving now, Claire, you can unmute. Oh, she thinks for, yeah, she... Oh, my God. Does she ever actually see films in the first nine years of their making? She plans on seeing everything, and she doesn't want to be spoiled for when she eventually sees a thing. All right. We're even, Claire. We're done.
Starting point is 00:32:12 We're done. I would say public pools would be a good one. I don't like those, even though I was literally in one the other day, but... I still think they're gross. Yeah, Brian, it is Brian's, I guess. Oh, shit. I thought it was our turn. Sorry, sorry. Sorry, sorry, my bad.
Starting point is 00:32:32 You so nailed the spit thing that I lost all track. I answered that one. It's all about Scott today. So that's fine. I get it. It's all about you. It makes sense. That's right.
Starting point is 00:32:41 That's right. Turn, that's a good answer. I hate to steal Scott's Publix's pools, but, yeah. Scott doesn't like that, does he? No, no. I'll get in here and there, but I'm not. I always think about it. Right.
Starting point is 00:32:59 They're people soup. It's people soup. Same with public jacuzis or hot tubs. Right. I think I think Scott hates a really wrinkly elbow. Like I really grosses him out. He's like, ugh, look at all those wrinkles and I have. I'll tell you after Brian checks it, whether that's true or not. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:18 I won't tell you yet. show me a wrinkly elbow I know not even in the answers that didn't make it on the board yeah I don't know where you got that from I have no problem with elbows they don't bother me at all
Starting point is 00:33:35 well I'll see if I let me look Google search ugly elbows and see if our gross elbows how about that oh let's do that's I do I do don't I do have this problem with them being called weanuses like the real name for the oh yeah that's a stupid name and it grosses me up
Starting point is 00:33:48 And I've seen some big enough where you could put a zipper in it and make a change purse out of it. But that doesn't mean I don't, you know, they don't gross me out. I just think they're, they're just a funny part of the human and it had me. They are. A poorly named funny part of the human body. You can push a nail through those things and you won't feel it, you know? It's crazy. I'm not going to do that.
Starting point is 00:34:05 No, I wouldn't recommend doing that, but the pain centers. I bet I'd feel it a lot. You'd feel it. There's just no, like, pinch it as hard as you can. It's just nothing. There's no nerves in there. By the way, I love their son of teenage dirt bag. It's so good.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Weenus and their one-hit wonder. One-hit wonder, weanus. That's fantastic. All right. So you got that wrong. Did you say public pools? I didn't say public pools. I wasn't going to take it.
Starting point is 00:34:31 It was too easy. What a nice friend you are. I'm going to say public pools, Brian. All right. Show me public pools. Oh. Damn, I'm surprised by that. Wow.
Starting point is 00:34:45 That's third strike. Brian. So here's the deal. 11 points behind, you'd need to get a couple of these. Almost any two answers will win it for you or steal the prizes away from
Starting point is 00:34:58 Win Vegas, but... Or you could fill out the board and win everybody. Or you could, yeah, run the board. It's true. It's up to you there, man. Okay, well, it doesn't matter, a good answer. So, Scott's always talking about
Starting point is 00:35:14 the mouse-smacking, but he actually said it before. He talked about it a little bit, came here if you said or not. I'm going to go with the, the, the, mous mous. Now smackin. Yeah. Yeah. Smacking. Brian also not a fan of that, by the way. Oh, I am so not a fan. Just even you doing that. I felt like I need to meet and have Scott wave when you're done. Yeah. Yep. Pull up, you got to pull a clear.
Starting point is 00:35:38 Eating, eating during a podcast is, if I could do a TED talk. Oh, God. I can't, I hate so much with food commercials where they, just get right in the microphone, especially eating hamburgers and stuff. Yes. It's worse. It's worse in movies because they don't hold back in movies. They have whole scenes around lunchtime. There's a plot point all of a sudden. I hate that.
Starting point is 00:36:00 All right. Show me smackin. Oh, I'm shocked by that. And I'm trying to figure out like what yeah, mouth smacking. Some of it came up and, you know, we may, I'm glad, I'm glad when may guess won because I think
Starting point is 00:36:17 where there may be some arguments about some of these things. Uh-oh. So let's go to, let's see what else is on the board here. Number three, licking anything. That makes sense. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:36:32 Just putting a tongue right up somebody's face or down their chest as we saw recently in some movie. Up the side of the face like that Jason Statham thing we watched, I cannot deal with that. Yeah. I hate that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:46 And he's a, just watch some thing where a kid put his mouth right on a bus window. Oh, yeah, that's great. Oh, bus windows are the worst. Yeah. Gosh, dang it, dude. Hand foot, mouth immediately.
Starting point is 00:36:59 You're going to walk out of there with the worst, like, face. It's the worst idea. Don't do it. All right. Number seven goes very specific spoiled yogurt soda. Oh, that is very specific. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:37:10 Is that a TMS reference? No. That is a Nurtacular reference when Hammond brought us all this yogurt soda and he gave us the bottle that apparently needed to be refrigerated and wasn't.
Starting point is 00:37:23 That was a 2015 ordeal and Dunaway was not at that one so that's why you don't remember that. All right, number eight is a combo. Poop, Boat, Lake Pooping, and Poop bag. Any of them with Boat pooping? Yeah, poop's gross.
Starting point is 00:37:41 I did think about poo bag, but if it's combined with poop and Boe Lake pooping. That does make sense that it'd be in the top 10. Yeah. For sure. You know what, Bo? It was funny. The whole bus window thing was across the Spider-Verus. Never mind. Oh, is that where you saw? It's where you and Tina saw a kid. Do it. That's where we saw it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:01 That was actually pretty great. Didn't someone in the movie say, don't do that? No, don't do that. Yes, yes. I think Miles did. I think Miles Morales said that. I think Miles like, don't do that. Don't put your mouth on there. Don't do that. All right. Oh, Claire, it's not a spoiler. That is not a spoiler If he is ruined for you because of that Then I will refund your ticket price
Starting point is 00:38:21 Yeah, I'll pay for you to go Your weird Irish Lucky Charms money Is it, do you pay with Yellow moons, pink hearts Or purple rainbows It's the easiest one Yeah
Starting point is 00:38:32 Green Clovers, hold on a second Did you say green clovers Are the easiest one for the Irish to use That's the easiest? No, it's the easiest one for you to guess Oh Either way, I love that. Sorry, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Continue. Hold on. I'm telling Claire, yes, we're done. Oh, I'll wave. Oh, she wants a wave? All right. She didn't hear any of us basically spending the last two minutes yelling at her about her, about her movie,
Starting point is 00:39:03 about her money, about Irish money. All right, let's go to number 10. And this one I'm going to take issue with because it's less, less Scott, more me. Oh. oh yeah that's not yeah yeah we talk about it a lot yeah yeah we tried it on the show i could i kind of did it okay but brian did not get it down uh yeah um but yeah for me no it's it it's me thick and liquid you 11 people who uh put that in there let's go down the rest of these because oh my god
Starting point is 00:39:32 there's so much stuff in here um the word moist yeah oh yeah good one bodily fluids just as a whole so that's why I was wondering kind of the you know smacking might falling in there number 14 Donald Trump number 15
Starting point is 00:39:48 eating bugs number 16 sharing VR headsets number 17 bird nest drink number 19 Clamato really it's just one of
Starting point is 00:39:57 a donut being dunked in the Clamato let's see AI art yeah avatar tail baby shit bum cheese
Starting point is 00:40:08 bum cheese um I could have put that under poop, really. Why is bum cheese on there? I just say bum cheese a lot of it. Maybe that grosses them out. Did they think of you? Naval lint, colonoscopy.
Starting point is 00:40:22 Animal crackers in the belly button, sure. Dirt in the salad. All right, that's good. These are all like personal story. Very specific footprint in the burger. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry, what did you say when Megas?
Starting point is 00:40:37 I said stepped on sakes, but I think it might have been flip on. in the burger. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, foot in the burger. That was it. Yeah, it's totally good. Let's see. Maggots, Matt shooting stuff out of his nose. Yeah. Mayo. Naked people trapeze. Yeah, it was very specific, but yeah, that's true. Also, mayo's fine. That's a jury problem. He hates it. That's a jury problem. Yeah. I don't mind it. Q's Krusty Spacehand. Oh, a lot of people said versions of something you find in Resident Evil, but not enough to make it in the list. um let's see every square inch of resident evil seven would have
Starting point is 00:41:13 it's just gross yeah exactly uh the end scene in bone tomahawk i'm not familiar with that oh my gosh he's not wrong it is movies don't usually get under my skin because i know it's all fake right but that thing in bone tomahawk if you've never seen that movie it will not spoil that moment but holy shit unbelievable thing really yeah just have to see it uh And finally, one person just put, yes. What grows? Get out the most? Yes.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Oh, so like all things, really. All of it. Well, here's the good news about all of that. Congratulations. You're the winner. That means WinMegas has won. And I couldn't be happier about that because you got this new PC and you got these games to play on it. Now, WinMegas, how do you feel about your victory? Friled.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Yeah. It adds to my orange box collection. Oh, that's good. That's all you got on Steam is your orange box. Oh, my gosh. I feel like giving you more codes. Yeah, and these are both good additions and also made in the same decade. So that's cool.
Starting point is 00:42:16 Just kidding. Orange Box is still great. Hey, Dunaway, or so Windmegas, go enjoy your stuff. Brian will send you these directly via Discord. So watch for that. Oh, look at this efficiency. It's insane. It's so easy now with this setup.
Starting point is 00:42:29 It's like beep-bop, bork, and they've got the games. And they're done. Congratulations. Dunaway tonight, you and I at about 4 p.m. Mountain time instead of the usual 3.30. because I have a late DTNS thing. We'll be doing Play Retro. We're talking all about Panzer Dragoon and its history.
Starting point is 00:42:46 Oh, yes. Yeah, on the Sega Saturn from Panzer Dragoon to Panzer Dragoon 2 and then Panzer Dragoon Soca, which I never played any of these games, but I've had a lot of fun learning about this past week. On-rail shooter, the first couple of ones, and then one kind of does an RPG thing. A little bit, yep, and it was pretty inventive for its time. Yeah. And it's the one that nobody ever thinks about when you talk about RPGs because this franchise kind of lived and died on the Sega Saturn. Yeah, it was a real attempt by Sega to change everything and it didn't really work.
Starting point is 00:43:19 But it's still a really fun discussion. We're going to have that tonight at 4 p.m. Mountain at frogpants.tv or wherever you get your podcast, just look for Play Retro. Done away, go clean the rest of your cat poop up, will you? Will you do that? Maybe another. No, you'll be right. All right. Well, there he goes. We're going to take a break.
Starting point is 00:43:37 When we come back from this break, Tom Merritt will join us. We'll have a little tech time, and we'll do some recommendals after that. But we can't do any of it until this big, giant, fat song gets in our way. Brian, what do we got? Yes, sir. We're going to go to New Zealand for this one. And a performer by the name of Jamie McDell, she's a New Zealand award-winning singer-songwriter. She's gold-certified, and she's got a brand-new EP out.
Starting point is 00:44:02 Rolling Stone says, The Stunner, the true stunner is McDell's un-Dell. Unforced voice. Billboard says the New Zealander and chants with airy vocals and confessional lyrics. I say, this is really good. And if I like, if you like Lana Del Rey or Billy Eilish or even some Adel, you'll like this. I love it. This is the song. This is the title track from the new EP from Jamie McDell.
Starting point is 00:44:26 It is called Beach House. Driving to your beach house, I want to find out of your beach house, I want to find some peace. Trying to get some sleep If I just sing forever Would I have nothing left But gone and done my best And you I want to change my number
Starting point is 00:45:30 I never call again are all that I look forward to, but that don't fit right yet, I don't sit right yet. Having colder showers, I want to fix my hair, by freezing it instead. I just said here, breathing, could I feel proud and great for living through today? Yeah, I want to wrap my teachers and tell them they were wrong. But the truth is, I'm not saving people. I'm just writing songs Just trying to feel well
Starting point is 00:46:42 I'm trying to feel well With my groceries And my bottles of wine And I've been private school Yeah, I've been raising to rest And giving hands and blessed You can I'll be back this weekend To our house in love
Starting point is 00:47:23 No, I don't live alone I'm married in the summer But I can't find a job We're still doing fine, and it's old in my mind driving to beach house. We at Viagraphics would like to thank you for choosing our company for your computer training needs. Remember, if you plan to learn Word for Windows 95 or any other software, there is no better way than through video training with Viagraphics. Clean house. We are here to clean house. And we've returned.
Starting point is 00:48:40 Hey, Brian, I really like the sound of what you described in that song. So maybe tell me who they were one more time. Okay, that's Jamie McDell, M-C-D-E-L-L, like, dude, you're getting a McDell. And a brand-new song title track from her new EP called Beach House. Fantastic. That sounds great. Yeah. All right. We're going to pull Tom Merritt in here.
Starting point is 00:49:00 And how do we know? Yeah, we should totally do that. This little thing's going to play right here. The world of tomorrow will be as cold as sunlight tuned through photochromic windows. Come back to reality, Tom. Come back to reality, Tom. I like that. Changing it up a little today.
Starting point is 00:49:16 Tom Merritt, everybody. He is joining us as he does every Wednesday to talk about the goings-on in the world of tech. And today is no different. Tom Merritt, welcome back to TMS. How are you? Oh, it's wonderful to be back. How are you both? Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:49:29 You know, you're real good. Yeah. What grade would you? you give it Brian your day you know like how would you so far I'd give it an A I mean it's an A day I'll give it an A as well yeah partly because later I get to be on DTNS and I love being on there so you know I'm not just I'm not just yanking your chain either I really do enjoy it well you know the other thing that you're nice enough to do is once a month you stick around after DTNS and we record the bonus show that goes to patrons where we look at news that's 10 years old yeah it's a wild time too
Starting point is 00:49:58 wow that's been 10 years since that thing or it's it's it's it's that that was happening 10 years ago and it's still happening all that kind of yeah it's a great it's a really I don't know how to explain it it's one of the only things I get to participate in where that kind of perspective gets bounced around and it's good to do once in a while just to realize because 10 years feels like nothing to guys our age it's like big deal it's a decade yeah but when you really look at it and go oh my gosh really we were doing that to get our email then or we were doing this to we thought this service was going to be the thing or whatever it's it's always fascinating so do check that out if you're a patron over there. And if you're not a patron, you should be. Tom, what's, uh, what's cooking today's show? Everybody wants to sell you something. Well, that's true. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And I'll tell you if you pay me. Okay. So, we're no different. Patreon has launched free trials and paid downloads. Oh. So, so the paid downloads part is,
Starting point is 00:50:55 is what I'm, I'm paying attention to here, which is the ability to say to patrons, like, hey, uh, you're supporting the thing in. general, but if you want to buy this individual item, you know, we'll give you a discount on it. So maybe you're an author, right? And you sell your ebooks for $20. Uh, you could sell them to your patrons for $10 right through Patreon where you already have a relationship with them and stuff like that. Discord also doing one time purchasable digital products or subscriptions sold by the server owners, uh, which you can access through, uh, your Discord server. So everybody's creating little shoppies. Yeah. Now, is it,
Starting point is 00:51:32 Are they setting it up so that you can also, like, let's say, I want to sell something, but through Patreon, but not to, basically, I want them to pay for access to a specific post, but they're not patrons. Is there a way to do that, to say, okay, you know, here's a pageist with a post with a download on my Patreon. You're not a patron, but you can still access this post and this download if you pay five bucks. Yeah. If a creator wants to sell a tutorial they recorded, but once the rest of their content to remain free, they'd still be able to monetize their work. Patreon, which is a 5% cut from those transactions. Okay. Five's not bad.
Starting point is 00:52:11 I thought that was going to be higher, so that's not bad. Yeah. The Discord thing is interesting. We just moved our entire server to be a community server. Ah, yeah. For some people makes no difference, but for others who want forums and other capabilities, those are nice. Yeah, we've been doing forums on Sword and Laser and Daily Tech News show both. and it's really helpful in Zord and Laser.
Starting point is 00:52:30 I like it a lot. It's a bit of a change for some, so we're getting used to it. But the announcement of this for Discord is interesting because, you know, giving server owners, which is a funny thing to call them, they're really just using Discord and have a server and then they have enough people joining it
Starting point is 00:52:47 that they can now say, hey, I want to charge you for things. I thought about what that would mean for us. It's actually kind of hard for me to get my head around it. So I'm curious to see what real world examples end up being like what kind of i guess it's access to certain groups you couldn't get access to before um i don't know what else i don't know what else they're going to use that for so the discord one is is maybe the most interesting to me because it feels like the most interesting
Starting point is 00:53:14 implementation just from a news perspective it seems more interesting to me whereas the the patreon one makes sense to me it's actually a little shocking that took them this long to come up with some of these uh implementations but um the discord one's a little bit of a head scratcher and I don't mean it in a negative way. I just don't know what the use case is yet. Yeah, I mean, it goes along with subscription tiers so you can now have sell different access to your Discord so people can pay directly to get into your Discord
Starting point is 00:53:44 instead of what we're doing like for Daily Tech News Show where if you're a patron, then you get access to the Discord. And then there's the downloadables I mentioned and something called Server Shops, a home for server owners to sell all of that stuff. server subscriptions, downloadables, premium roles. You can create media channels designed to host subscriber only content. It's basically saying, look, here's your community.
Starting point is 00:54:11 If you want to have a Patreon-like experience on that community, you can do that without having to use Patreon. So what makes sense to me is servers like ours would benefit from this maybe even more directly than servers that aren't already Patreon locked. In other words if you have a Patreon role that says, hey, you're now in our Discord and that's the only way you get in is by being a patron. Oh, and now we've got all these other sub-options on the server. Yeah, you kind of don't need this. You kind of don't need it or
Starting point is 00:54:39 want it. It'd be weird to do it. But I think open, you know, the servers that are sort of open to everybody, like the Frog Pants, one, and there's others. There's probably some argument for where you'd want to implement this in there, I guess. I don't know what that would be for us. And I'm not, this isn't me going,
Starting point is 00:54:56 I can't wait to nickel and dime you people for being in there. That's not what I'm saying. That's been the negative reaction to the Discord thing in particular is like, here we go, the nickel and diming of Discord. What a bomber. It is making everybody money grubbing. Yeah, well, you know, everybody's getting their subs somewhere, I suppose.

Starting point is 00:58:05 Joining us today, Randy Jordan. Hi, Randy. Good morning, morning stream. I'm doing it really, really well. I had a 18-day vacation, and it was a vacation. And I am back from it. Oh, well, that's good. It sounds like you've done success is what it sounds like to me.
Starting point is 00:58:21 You did good. Sure. I successfully returned. Oh, well, that's good. Safe and well. Oh, did you... Were there some some refrigerated meals waiting for you? How did that work out? Oh, I have no idea. Fortunately, I had a friend come pick it up after it was delivered, and we didn't even talk about it. I have completely forgotten to ask her how that food was.
Starting point is 00:58:43 Yeah, because she's probably eating at all. I don't know. Check in with me in a few days. I'll find out what she thought. All right. That sounds awesome. Also with us, of course, Nicole. Nicole Spagg. Hi, Nicole. How are you doing? Oh, fantastic. I missed you last week. You were busy doing important mom school things. What was I doing? I can't keep up with myself. Something from Mateo in school is all I remember. I don't know. Yeah, I think so. Something like that. I can't remember what we did. Look, it's that's the life. We went to the arch yesterday. Oh, how was that? No, I didn't go. My kids are braver than me. They went up to the top. And I was like, I'll stay down here.
Starting point is 00:59:17 so do the arches um or arches arch rather single arch yeah it's not mcdonald hasn't co-op to the gateway arch yet um there's a scene so i don't know this is maybe a non sequitur but i was watching the the reveal for the starfield uh game that's coming out this fall and there's a scene where they're they're kind of panning around this like ruined planet and in on this ruined planet is an exact looking replica of a giant st louis looking arch is it intact it is but it's all like it looked kind of hammered. And so I don't think it's supposed to be St. Louis.
Starting point is 00:59:53 It's supposed to be some planet somewhere that's not Earth. But I saw it and thought of you and I went, well, that's weird. Why would you put that in there? But maybe they were just trying to make a cool arch and forgot that St. Louis had one. I don't know. It was a weird thing. I'm excited.
Starting point is 01:00:07 Because it's so unique. Like if you look at the other, it was a contest that St. Louis, the National Park Service held for the monument. And if you look at the other entries, you're like, yeah, those are lame. This one is so cool. I didn't know there were other entry. I should check that out. Yeah, there's like, there was a whole bunch.
Starting point is 01:00:26 But I think they whittled it down to like five. And they, in the museum now, they did a whole museum underneath the arch back in 2018. They showcased those designs. It's actually a pretty cool place to go now. Yeah, I wouldn't mind visiting one day. Yeah. What there is a little kid went up the elevator into the, arch and uh but have not been as adult and teen has never been there so it's definitely time for
Starting point is 01:00:51 and you went in you didn't you go in at the base of the arch and then go up yeah you don't do that anymore you actually go further out into the middle they have a welcome center that takes you through a really cool museum and they have a theater and they have virtual reality and they have a store oh really and then the elevator goes up from there as opposed to so yeah then you get your tickets and then you either go to the north side or the south side. Oh, okay. They have loading times. They want you to enter and exit the gift shop, what it sounds like.
Starting point is 01:01:26 Yeah, exactly. So let me understand this. Brian, when you went, would it curve up? The elevator curved right or up? Oh, that's wild. So not a straight up, like I can't, I can't try to picture how an elevator. I'm sure this is more common. You're saying, Nicole, it still does that.
Starting point is 01:01:44 You just go into the welcome center first. And then you go to one of the legs. Yeah, it's a little bit more organized in air condition now. Oh, gosh, yeah. I do remember that thing. And they have a, like, if you have claustrophobia, they have a little test pod that you can sit in to see. Oh, wow. That's cool, actually.
Starting point is 01:02:03 I like that. That is cool. Wow. All right. Great time to go see the arch, everybody. Speaking of claustrophobia, anybody, speaking of claustrophobia, anybody have a desire to get into a tiny little submarine and go see things? No. No.
Starting point is 01:02:15 Not right now. Right now, not from whoever those guys are. I mean, I'm hoping against hope they find them alive. Of course. But, and if they do, I'm excited because then let the ridiculing commence because it sounds like the dumbest expedition in the history of ever. But I really don't want those people dead, you know. Oh, God, no. No.
Starting point is 01:02:37 So the internet's being a little hard on them right now until. Imagine that. Yeah, weird, right? Weird. You know, I just have a general opposition to the ocean. Like, just in general. I'm just like, you know, I go snorkeling. I stay within like 100 meters of the shoreline.
Starting point is 01:02:52 Yeah. That would be my whole life if I'm lucky. I'm with Jaws as a kid. Is that? Yeah. Is it movies that might have, I know for me, it's a lot of movies like Jaws. Well, no, actually, it's, it's the video age, right? It's like going on TikTok and seeing yet another cruise ship in high seas and bad weather and people sliding around in the ballroom.
Starting point is 01:03:11 I'm like, yeah, don't need to do that. Yeah, you did watch Triangle of Sadness, didn't you? I think we talked about that. that yep yeah oh man i'm only i only have a problem when it's large bodies of water that seem endless from from the sides and the depth and i don't like i don't like that feeling when i think about it if i'm in a lake that's fine rivers fine whatever but in the ocean is well the ocean is vast you guys it's big you know and i don't think i want to do that part weirds me out or or freaks me out yeah i don't like to think about it too much in fact on the ship on the cruise ship i had to
Starting point is 01:03:45 actually kind of force myself not to remind myself how far out for everything you were. And if you if you can do that successfully, it's not so bad. But if you, if you're really hung up on that, that can be a problem. Yeah, there's this thing that happens when you fly to Hawaii, you're back. When you look at the flight map and you see where the plane is. Yeah, I hate that. And there's like an hour where there's nothing but blue. Yeah, I don't like that. That's the one that really gets me. And I did that on our way to China and, um, and Tokyo, that feeling of being in the Pacific and having nothing on that map even if you zoomed all the way out that's that gave me the freaking willies dude don't like it well now let's move from giving each other the willies to giving each other
Starting point is 01:04:22 recommendations all right we're going to start with brian because that's the the tradition brian kick us off with your clip what do you got it is the rule it is in my contract uh all right this is um this is something i may have recommended before however we have a new season of it yeah that spoils it it's a tv show and uh um you're going to hear it just two voices of an amazing cast here in this little clip. All right, here we go. You may still be exposed.
Starting point is 01:04:55 You need to watch yourself. There are only three people who know about my roving there. Rudy's never going to talk. And the other two people are sitting right here. So I got none to worry about. I paid for my sins. You can't dig graves deep enough in this city to hide them from the storms. Water will get to the bodies every time.
Starting point is 01:05:27 Only sure thing about the dirt beneath our feet is that it'll wash away one day. You asked me to bury something, and now... Here we are. Shame on us for not knowing our city better. It was a car, not a body. It was a coffin with a set of headlights. Okay. Is it this guy right here?
Starting point is 01:05:56 Hold on. City council. I have it here. State senator. No, he's not doing it, but it's the shit guy, right? From the, from the, for cocaine bear, the wire. Roy Whitlock? Isaiah.
Starting point is 01:06:11 Isaiah, you're confusing with Roy. Roy Wood, sorry. I do, too. Those guys are almost the same. Kind of are, yeah. Isaiah Well-Luck, Jr., that's who you're hearing there. And the other voice, of course, was Brian Cranston, your Walter White. In a show that I think is, God, it is just nipping at the heels of being every bit as good as Breaking Bad.
Starting point is 01:06:31 This is a show called Your Honor. Shit Out of Luck.com. Your Honor, it's on Showtime. And it is a two-season miniseries. So you've got your two seasons, you've got a complete story, you've got, you don't have to worry about anything else coming up that you have to subscribe to and watch. This started in 2020, it just ended its second season here recently. And stars Cranston as a New Orleans judge named Michael DeCiato, who helps his son get out of a jam. And in doing so, it causes kind of an avalanche of problems in much the same way as, you know, Walter White's family first methodology caused an avalanche of problems for him and the rest of the whites as well.
Starting point is 01:07:31 You know, kind of one of those, do the right thing, maybe you don't do it the right way, and then another problem comes up because you didn't. and then you have to do more things to fix the problem that you caused, and that might cause more problems. It is a fantastic, fantastic show. You've also got, so you heard Brian Cranston and Isaiah Whitluck. You've also got Hope Davis, who I think has the best agent in Hollywood right now because she's in everything. She was in season two of Perry Mason. She's just been in everything recently, and she's fantastic.
Starting point is 01:08:03 Everything good is the main thing. She's just in all good things. She's finding, she's getting good stuff. You also get, get ready, Margo Martindale. That's right. He was in the glass the whole time. Oh, yeah. Yep, Margo Martindale.
Starting point is 01:08:18 Uh, Mora Tyranny, Rosie Perez, shall I keep going? Amy Landecker. Uh, Benjamin Flores, Jr. Uh, do I, do I keep going? Michael Stelbarg. Uh, you know him because he always plays a mafia guy, Michael Stolberg, because he looks like a mafia guy. Guess who's playing this one?
Starting point is 01:08:37 Uh, he's playing Jimmy Backs. the boss of an organized crime family. Yeah. Shocker. It is, yeah, it is so, so good. God, what can I tell you? What else can I tell you about this to?
Starting point is 01:08:48 Oh my gosh, Margot, Martindale and Whitlock. Isaiah Whitlock and Brian Cranston. After the cocaine bear. My gosh, look at him working together again. That's right. I forgot that those two were both in Cocaine Bear. And boy, oh, boy, is this better than cocaine bear? I'm ready to, I'm ready to,
Starting point is 01:09:07 I'm ready to ship something with Margo Martindale and Isaiah Whitlock. I want them in a romance comedy, thank you. Amen. You know, it's all the Margo stands out there that are doing this. Anyway, it's on Showtime. It is called Your Honor. Two 10 episode seasons.
Starting point is 01:09:26 And my God, the benefit that you all have now, if you haven't watched this, to not have to wait between the end of season one and beginning of season two for, the amazing cliffhanger, the amazing ending that season one has that you're waiting for for season two. So, so freaking good. Yeah, you had to wait almost two years for that.
Starting point is 01:09:49 I had to wait two years for it. It's a lot. Yeah. Oh, my God. It's fantastic. I haven't heard you with this glowing about a thing in a while. I'm into it. I want to see it.
Starting point is 01:09:59 It's great. There won't be a third season. There won't be, you know, maybe a spin-off, sure. but it's it's been announced that it was going to be a two-season deal and yeah they knew they knew how long it was going to run and they did it right and they did it exactly i like that too yeah yeah yep there you your honor on showtime show time all right uh randy mover over over to you let's do this uh this clip you've got now you i guess this has a special description before we get on what do you got yeah so disclaimer yeah this is uh this is a this is a this is a this is a a blechemental. It's unfortunate, because I was excited about this. And by the way, this is a
Starting point is 01:10:41 really good time right now. Like, if I could be positive for a moment, there's a new season of Strange New Worlds that just started. And the first episode was awesome. It was so freaking good. And we have justified city primeval coming in a couple weeks. Like, it's a really good
Starting point is 01:10:56 time right now. So, I was super excited when Discovery dropped the new Mark Rober TV show that he I didn't even know he was making a TV show and it's on Hulu it's on Max now because
Starting point is 01:11:12 you know Discovery I guess is part of HBO I don't know but so you watch it on Max there's no ads it's Mark Rober and play the clip let's go for those at home who don't know Rober is a YouTuber right
Starting point is 01:11:28 that's his big claim yeah yeah just I'll just set that up he's the guy who invented the the glitter bomb for porch pirates the thing that you put on the porch as soon as the robber would take it and get in their car
Starting point is 01:11:44 this thing would explode glitter, fart smell and cameras to record their reactions and it is the fantastic like the best thing ever and now I guess we'll So just one quick thing is this, did they do this show
Starting point is 01:11:58 through Discovery? Yes. Listen to the clip. You've got to listen to the clip to understand, just how bad this is. Because Discovery, HBO, Warner, they're all the same thing now. So, yes. I mean, yes, but Discovery, I had a friend who tried to get a TV show with them and
Starting point is 01:12:14 they're notorious at not paying for anything. Oh, really. They're, yeah. I mean, I've even heard, well, I've heard Jamie Heinemann has words for a discovery these days. But anyway, yeah. Let's play it. Here it is.
Starting point is 01:12:30 Here's the clip. Roll it. There's the cold for it. Look at him. He's just pooping. That's a big dog. Yeah, it's a big dog, but what? Oh, no. Oh, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 01:12:39 No! No! He's still on the floor. This is a thing. You see how slippery that was? What? This guy, we need to avenge him, and the thousands just like him
Starting point is 01:12:55 all across the world. Yeah. So how do we get all these hygiene-challenged people to clean up their act? Dangerous behavior calls for disgusting revenge. I want to build a highly realistic remote control dog that actually shoots fake poop of people
Starting point is 01:13:09 to get their attention. And if that doesn't get their attention, nothing will. So it sounds pranky to me. Pranky and bad. Such a great that clip is the perfect one to tell people I pulled it. I just want to say like it's called Mark
Starting point is 01:13:26 Robber Revengeniers. Revengeeners. And so you know what you're getting from the title. And by the way, he found some really great sidekicks. There's three other people on this show. Their names are Thea, Stephanie, and Alan. And I love them.
Starting point is 01:13:44 And they deserve so much better than this garbage. They are like, because this is a take on MythBusters, only they're not busting any myths at all. And they're claiming to be getting, you know, like revenge on people in public doing morally questionable things but every single person you see who gets revenge taken on them is an actor it's a person who has
Starting point is 01:14:12 signed up for this and it's just so lawsuit yeah yeah because unfortunate turns many people sent because they know about my movie complaints so many people sent me the clip of what they do to people in movies who get
Starting point is 01:14:26 out their phones or talk and I was like oh great oh my God this is going to be so good and then you watch and it's like well that person And you can clearly see their, like, TikTok reacting to what's happening to them. And it's, it's, what's sad about that whole episode is it all takes place in the movie theater. They go over the things we all hate. And then their solutions for it are so uninspired. They're just like, like you have these amazing engineers, like do so, you know, and the problem is that Mark Rober has set himself up to fail by being so great on YouTube for so long.
Starting point is 01:15:02 We're like, we're like eight years into Mark Rober, who is the person who cracked the nut of how you do this, right? How you get a huge audience and how you make a super entertaining nine minute video and et cetera, et cetera. And it's just, yeah, it doesn't work on TV. And also, uh, pranks, man. I'm tired. I'm tired. Exactly. Can't do.
Starting point is 01:15:25 Like, yeah. He's not the only one doing this. So there's a guy, a dude dad who's in Colorado. He's actually in Fort Collins. Collins. And he's partnered up with the Magnolia Network. So his show is on Max as well. Taylor Kamlas. Yes. And he's a funny guy. He kind of does a lot of like cool, like he made his kids a roller coaster in their backyard. But again, these, you know, discovery. And we've even been approached to do a show. We're like, what the hell? We're doing our show. What do you want to do? What do you want to do? We always have these TV people contact us, say, what's your ideas?
Starting point is 01:16:06 We're doing our idea. So it's funny to see all of these YouTubers trying to convert to TV. It's really wild watch. So Dude Dad is another one that's out there. Again, MythBusters set the standard and they set the bar really, really high. But this could have been a show where we brought these amazing engineers, together to engineer cool shit and they didn't at all there's not a i've watched and watched try i'm like there's going to be something cool like there's going to be something that you would
Starting point is 01:16:41 never expect right because like mark robert in the past has done these amazing things like building a robot that kicks a football with a foot as far as farther than a human could and this kind of thing and like no they don't even they don't even they don't even refer to any of his old stuff it's so sad the the you know this movie theater thing oh they're clever and enough to create a thing that dumps popcorn like using a claw, like almost a claw game kind of thing
Starting point is 01:17:09 on the person who's got their phone out. And where I stopped watching was, you know, the blasphemy at a farmer's market of somebody who takes a grape. Right. Well, it takes more than one when the sign says it only take one.
Starting point is 01:17:22 Yeah, wow. It takes more than one sample. I know the horrible humanity that does that. They actually have a hidden boxing glove that comes out and punches them in the face when they take too many items. Wow.
Starting point is 01:17:35 He punches this poor actor in the face who is so sadly not expecting it at all. No, he was absolutely not in on it. His dude dad's new show. Okay, cool. That looks more interesting than this. And I apologize that we've gone as long as we have on this
Starting point is 01:17:50 because it is a black of mental. We should have just skipped through it really quickly. You can say, I don't think it's meant for us. I don't think it's meant for us. Oh, I watched it with my 13-year-old. Oh, did he not like it either? Yeah, he just drifted right out of the room.
Starting point is 01:18:05 So the reviews on him Rotten Tomatoes, there are no critic reviews, but the audience reviews at 82%. And that makes me just think that there's, you know, there's an army of YouTube fans for him that are going to go and love it no matter what he does. So I don't know how we gauge this thing. Just Watch is pulling 38% from something. I don't know what Just Watch gets this number from,
Starting point is 01:18:27 but 38% makes more sense to me. yeah there's it's it's it's not a really a show for anybody in particular but it's just not it's not inspired 38 I think is you're much better off watching his YouTube channel and you should watch his YouTube channel is great he's he's brilliant the stuff he does I think the 38 is uh yeah where are they getting that can you I guess you can vote on stuff inside of just watch if he sign up I don't know oh really I think that's what that is because that's their logo there but anyway uh anyway I'm sorry I'm bad guys no no look dude I hate prank YouTube You made it longer than I did in that show, it sounds like. And it's a bummer because his stuff isn't prank on YouTube. It's more, well, you know, proper revenge. It's problem solving. Right. It's problem solving.
Starting point is 01:19:11 But when you, when you try to, he's basically put a layer of prank on it for the show. And that immediately turns, I have no interest in public pranks. Can't stand them of any kind. Even if the people are in on it. You know what? Even worse if they're in on it. Even worse if the people are in on it. And yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:28 And trying to just. the pranks with a, well, here's what they did to deserve it. Yeah, that's not that all interesting. I could go odd. There's so many examples, but let's just let's let it go. It wasn't
Starting point is 01:19:42 great. All right. Nicole, let's get to yours. This is something I think a couple of us have seen and I think we all loved it. I'm curious to hear what you say, but here's your clip and then we'll talk about it. Once the dead man is revived, we can ask him five questions at which point he will die again, never to be
Starting point is 01:19:58 revived. Were you killed in the battle of Everhors? Yes. Four more question, right? Yes. No, no, no, that wasn't for you. Did that count as a question? Yes.
Starting point is 01:20:08 Damn it. Only answer when I talked to you. Okay? Yes. Why did you say okay at the end of that? I didn't. Fantastic. Hurt the shovel.
Starting point is 01:20:21 I love this movie so much, dude. It was so fun. So this is on Paramount Plus. It's streaming. It's the new Dungeons and Dragons. What's the tag after? Honor Monterfeeves. You heard Chris Pine and the guy from Detective Pikachu.
Starting point is 01:20:42 Oh, I can't remember his name. He was the main guy in Detective Pikachu. Because I was like the whole time I'm watching this movie going, I recognize him. Where do I recognize him from? Which guy? Which actor? I don't know who. The main actor.
Starting point is 01:20:56 The thief, not Chris Pine, but the younger thief. guy. Was he a mage? Oh, you're talking about the wizard kid? Okay, the sorcerer. He's a sorcerer. Yeah, Justice Smith.
Starting point is 01:21:09 I guess I've never, I haven't seen Detective Pikachu, so I was I was already barking up the wrong tree. Wait. Just haven't seen it. I haven't seen it. I haven't gone around to it. Just haven't ever, you know, it's on the list of things I haven't seen.
Starting point is 01:21:21 It's this generation's who framed Roger Rabbit, Scott. Oh, it's way better. I've heard great things about it. I haven't avoided it. I haven't like not. wanted to see it. I just haven't gone around to it.
Starting point is 01:21:31 I will. It's really, you know, it's actually, it's really the Pokemon equivalent of Dungeons and Dragons' Honor Among Thieves. It is a little bit. Yeah. I mean, that's the key here. The thing I love most about this,
Starting point is 01:21:43 Honor Among Thieves, was how truthfully they played with the tropes. And they did it in such a fun, fun, easy way that this is an actual spell that you can use. If you have it in Dungeons and Dragons to talk to the dead,
Starting point is 01:21:58 you only get so many questions you can ask and after that they're gone and they use that to such great amazing comedic effect I didn't expect it to work like it actually was fricking funny and not tropey or dumb yeah I loved it
Starting point is 01:22:13 it's such a great movie I loved it I loved how they set up the story I loved the character development I mean I remember the what was it the 1990s version of it with
Starting point is 01:22:27 what the hell was it um i see daniel dade lewis but that's not right oh no the you're not talking about the um not the tom hanks movie that was a different thing right not mazes and monsters the um was there really not the one with williams uh there it was a 83 one with williams yeah there it is Jeremy irons it was not good it was just oh it was it was in 2000 i was think it was in the 90s i mean close enough yeah but um it wasn't good and so you kind of have that in you know if you've seen that one you got to you're like where are they going to take this and mark and i watched it and we were it was just a lot of fun to watch i really enjoyed it um
Starting point is 01:23:10 i was surprised by a few surprise actors that showed up that i had to look at look them up to go is that really who i think it is yeah yeah it is one of very specifically that i'm glad wasn't spoiled for me yeah same that one is shocked me and it took me about five minutes. I was like, wait a minute. Who am I looking at? Oh, really? Yeah. I heard the voice and I'm like, that can't be and I had to pull out IMDB immediately. Yeah, that was wild. Totally wild.
Starting point is 01:23:38 It's good though. So fun, just a fun, lighthearted, funny. I keep on saying fun, but it was. It was just a lot of fun. And Tina's not a, Tina's not a Dungeons and Dragon player by any stretch of the imagination and she really enjoyed it. She doesn't know a D20 from a face what's the dangly thing that
Starting point is 01:23:58 that apparently I don't even know the uh yeah she doesn't know that uh from a from a gelatinous cube there we go she doesn't know a d20 from a gelatinous cube and she enjoyed it that's good um my wife especially like this reggie jean page this dude from uh however you say that guy uh i'll just say this his class all right his d and d class they i cannot think of them nailing that any better than they did. And that's not a spoiler. The character he played plays a class in the game and they nailed it so hard. I just, I could not stop laughing at that guy. And also my wife thinks he's the handsomest human being on that. Well, sure. We were all told to think that by Bridgeton. And I loved Hugh Grant in this. It should mention him. He was great. Grant was perfect.
Starting point is 01:24:47 Sophia Lilis. I almost didn't recognize her. She was in one of my favorite shows that got canceled on Netflix. I recommended it called I'm not okay with this. Right. Which is a superhero Coming of age, superhero show. I'm still pissed at Netflix for that one. That one really chaffed my cheese. That's not even a phrase.
Starting point is 01:25:09 I made it up that. She was also in It. Yeah, she was the girl. She was the girl in the first It movie. I love her. Yeah, she's awesome. And she's in the upcoming Asteroid City. I want to see I totally want to see that. Have you seen it yet? Has it come out yet?
Starting point is 01:25:24 It hasn't come out yet. This is this weekend, no? Maybe it's limited release this weekend. I can't remember. It's soon, though. Michelle Rodriguez also totally nailed it. I really liked her in this. Everybody was great.
Starting point is 01:25:35 And Chris Pine is easy to say, well, he's the main guy, so he's fine. He's actually really comedic and funny in this. He is. Do you know what Chris Pine's fans are called? No. Pine nuts. Pine nuts. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:25:49 Pine nuts. Oh, the poor guy. The poor guy. By the way, Asteroid City is in White, release. I can, I've got movie times for it today and my local theaters. Also, Daisy Head is Sophia. I'll be all see you guys in a couple hours. Yeah, see you then. I know. All right. Let's end things with mine today. It is a very different deal. And, uh, oh, did you mention it's Paramount Plus, right? That's where that's out. Paramount Plus, yeah. They are very happy on Paramount
Starting point is 01:26:13 plus, by the way. As soon as you finish Honor Among Thieves, they immediately feed you about 10 Chris Pine films. Starting to Star Trek. Have you seen this new thing they're doing where they put up ads if you pause, I think it's fascinating. Yeah. You know what's irritating. If you do it on a browser and you have a blocker installed, it will show, it still tries to show you ads, but just gives you a blank page. It's really dumb. Oh, interesting. Noise of the hell out of me. All right. Here is one I saw on Netflix. So we really spread ourselves out, showtime. We got the Hulu and the whatnot. Now we got the Netflix and the Paramount Plus. My Netflix documentary went in going, this will be interesting, came out going, this is my favorite doc of the year.
Starting point is 01:26:54 and I must have all my friends see it. You must see this. I feel like you say that a lot. I do. This one for real. All those other times, I was lying. This time, for real. Anyway, here it is, and I'll explain.
Starting point is 01:27:07 My whole life, I had this unusual talent that I could see things very clearly in front of me. If I can see it, then it must be achievable. The idea was to sculpt the body to your will, to do the things that everyone calls impossible. And that gives you the will. And no doubt that you could make new visions
Starting point is 01:27:49 not only become a reality, but go beyond your vision. dreams. All right. This is the documentary on Netflix called Arnold. I thought it was Fubar.
Starting point is 01:28:00 No, that's a fictional show. Yeah, that's just a that also came out on the Arnold network.
Starting point is 01:28:08 Yeah, everything's coming up Arnold on Netflix. In fact, I guess they kind of screwed me up on QuickTMS. Dot L
Starting point is 01:28:14 because I thought it was Fubbar. Yeah, definitely haven't watched Fubbar yet. I want to, but this is Arnold's life
Starting point is 01:28:22 documentary. And I went in thinking this is going to be self-serving this is going to be a little bit of navel gazing this is going to be a lot of that what i what i just played makes it sound like okay we're just going to hear about the genius that is arnold schwarzenegger and his career it is not that it is but it isn't it's it's his accomplishments his achievements how he got there what he did every step of the way from and it's basically three chunks the first episode is all about the bodybuilding phase his youth through the bodybuilding phase uh through his 20s and 30s and how
Starting point is 01:28:54 that panned out. The second one is all about his shift to acting in the acting career all the way from garbage like Hercules in New York to actually hitting it big with finally with her or sorry Conan the Barbarian was the first big one. And then from Conan to meeting James Cameron getting the job on Terminator. You guys will not believe some of the trivia around like I'll be back and why that term is what it is and how it became what it is. Like it's insane. They get into true lies, the depression, the utter depression and wrecking that Last Action Hero was in his life. He had a really hard time with that. That's a good movie. Yeah, I think it's great, but it tanked hard in the box office. You'll also hear, and you get it out of both their mouths,
Starting point is 01:29:41 because Stallone is in this documentary. Sylvester Stallone and Arnold had a legit rivalry, and I don't just mean a fun, playful one. Like, they hated each other's guts. They were constantly trying to outdo each other in the 80s they could not stay at the same parties like a hollywood party would happen they were both there and one of them would have to leave it couldn't be in the same room just hated each other now they're like besties best of friends and they talk all about that whole rivalry what it meant what it was who won really that kind of thing and then it goes into when that ends it goes into his political career and that's the final episode where you get most of the political stuff his his time is governor of california and then
Starting point is 01:30:23 um and then it ends on a lot of personal notes what i was worried about going into this was it was just going to be all the glitz and none of the behind the scene stuff and it's not they hold they hold they don't hold punches and they don't hold back on on his major mistakes in his life including his affair in 96 that produced the son that he hid for years from his wife and what that did to his family and where he's at now with all of that and his relationship with his kids and Maria Shriver, for that matter, and all this stuff. They're not afraid to, when I say they, the filmmakers, but I also mean him. He's not afraid to look into the camera and admit it's the biggest mistake he ever made in his
Starting point is 01:31:03 life and he would change it if he could and like all this kind of stuff. Anyway, it's so good. And if you're even remotely a fan of Terminator or any of his career, or you just want to see this interesting thing from Austrian kid with abusive dad and, and the culture at the time in Austria post-war and what all that meant for him growing up all the way to this end where I actually prefer old Arnold. I really like him old and crusty.
Starting point is 01:31:30 I think there's something special there. They even get into why he's into the donkeys, Brian, why he's like hanging out with his donkeys all the time. Oh, good. Why his donkeys eating off his kitchen tape. Yeah, he goes out and scoops their poop every day. He explains why he loves doing that. He doesn't hire anyone to do it.
Starting point is 01:31:47 Anyway, it was one of the most intensely cool documentaries I've seen in a very long time. And I can't recommend this one enough. It's very, very, very good. Even if you're not an Arnold fan, it's a fascinating story about his life and where it all went. And he's really candid. In a way, I didn't expect. I thought this would be a lot of fronting. And it wasn't. It was life. I have thought more than once about coming on here and making my recommendal his latest YouTube video, right? Because like once a year, he sits in real solemnly talks to a camera about fascism or something and they're like super powerful and moving but they're contained it's like a you know it's like a 12 minute video right and i was just thinking i hope this documentary isn't two hours of that no it's not in fact you only really get he talks about some of that toward the end of episode three as kind of the stages in now where he can use his influence to try to make a difference and he and he uses it in political ways uses it still in youth groups and stuff and still very involved in special Olympics and all this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 01:32:55 But then also still doing some movies here and there. It talks about what that means when you age and when you're not the mega $100 million box office weekend star that you used to be. There's just some lessons in it that are, I think, scalable. You can scale them down to kind of your own life. And I love, I freaking loved it. I really liked it, you guys. You got to see it.
Starting point is 01:33:17 It's great. It's called Arnold. It's available now on Netflix and is absolutely worth, I think, three hours or so. And you get to see whiskey and Lulu. That's what's important here. You get to see them. Yes, you get to see whiskey and Lulu. You get to see them.
Starting point is 01:33:31 I don't realize they have names. Oh, my gosh, yes. Yeah. He TikToks those things all the time. But he also smokes a lot of cigars. And he talks about. Stogis. Yeah, Stogies.
Starting point is 01:33:41 And he talks about how the cigar industry, he doesn't. They talk about how the cigar industry, like, exploded when, he started smoking cigars in public they talk about how uh there was no humvee until he forced uh gm's hand to make a uh consumer hun humve um and why he thought that was important at the time and how we some of that stuff of regrets now and it's crazy it's it's a really crazy look at a at a at a very complex dude who we all just kind of go oh arnold b you know like we kind of make fun of him a lot but it's just a deeper thing and it's great really really good so anyway check it out Netflix is where you'll see that and if you want to find out where we put all of these or where we
Starting point is 01:34:24 saw all of these today go to quicktms.l i which is up now uh and i think that'll do it Nicole thanks for joining us thanks for having me this is always fun always fun yeah tell more it's fun tell mark hi I like tell him I'm really fond of his woodworking tell him that I can't wait to see him on Discovery Go.

Starting point is 01:35:13 I use it every time I roll dice. I'll think about it. I used that dice tower when we played, I played, I remember the name of the game, but we played a game that had a lot of dice in it with family. I used his dice tower for that even. And it was just regular six-sided dice, but we didn't care. We used it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:29 Yeah, it was awesome. It's fun. Tell him, hi, best of the family. We'll see you soon. Randy, same to you, man. Dude, we had such a good episode on Moonfall, Moonfall, Underworld. Why did I call it that? Underworld. And I am really looking forward to this upcoming one on Guilty Pleasure movies. I'm so excited.
Starting point is 01:35:47 Yeah, our Guilty Pleasure special airs this weekend. While Brian's out sweating on a bike, you're going to hear all about Guilty Pleasure films and how we define those. Amazingly, I'm able to do that episode and not have heavy breathing or any sort of exertion from being on a bike while this Saturday, while we're recording that episode. It'll be amazing for people here. It'll be crazy. It sounds, it almost sounds like you're in a hotel room rather than on a bike. Almost, yeah, that's, yeah. Not entirely. You have to really think about it. But yeah, it's almost like you're there.
Starting point is 01:36:20 Randy, always good to talk to you. We'll see you that for that. And have a good week. Hey, Brian, we're done. Yeah, we're done. I mean, we're sort of done. We got stuff to talk about still like a little post show stuff. Yeah, we got a little thing here and there.
Starting point is 01:36:34 I could tell people, because we didn't have in the opening or in the, the intro of the news. A new episode of Soundography just went. up all about fake bands, your spinal tap, you're Josie and the Pussycats, your Scotty don't know, those, all of those fake bands, which, if they're so fake, how come we're hearing music from them? Oh, think about that. So answer that question. Actually, Hammond and I answer that question on soundography.com.

Also, I just put up a video yesterday for Core Daily at YouTube.com slash Scott Johnson, and I want people to see because it's short, but it's kind of a more personal one. I went and did some video footage of this old arcade cabinet my dad built in the 80s. Oh. And it was the basis of what would become his arcade business. But at the time, he was just building one and a few machines at a time.
Starting point is 01:37:21 And he machined and finished these cocktail, their stand-up models as well. I don't have any of those. But the cocktail version of what I think in there, I think the main board's a Galaxian or something. I'm not entirely sure because it won't boot. But I'm going to gut that thing. take all the old components out of it and make it work again. Anyway, so I did some filming of that, and people I don't think have seen that thing up close.
