Let's get you some lobsters and shrimp.
The morning stream.
He's taking a dump in a can.
Good morning, everybody.
Welcome to TMS.
It's the morning stream for Monday, June 17th, 2024.
One month for my birthday.
I don't like that.
Don't like that.
Yet you'll still mention it.
Yeah, I'll still bring it up.
I bring up things I don't like, Brian.
This is one of them.
I don't like how close it is.
I don't like birthdays.
Birthday suck.
All this,
birthdays are just a number thing.
Whatever.
They're also a higher.
It's a higher.
You know,
that is really all it means.
It just means,
oh,
yeah,
this is my,
this is the,
the anniversary of my birth,
the anniversary of my,
making it out of the womb.
Yeah,
I wish we had a culture of,
like,
forgetting the number.
You know what I mean?
Like just,
we just say happy birthday
and we don't go,
none of it is,
the number. It's just your annual
turn around
the planet. If we could do that
Yeah, if we could do that, it would bother me less, I think.
If I could just forget how old I am.
For example, this is episode 2,661
of TMS. That's true.
I noticed you don't, you know, your other shows
or a lot of your other shows, you don't worry about the number.
You like to say, yeah, this is the
Monday show for Monday, June 17th and not,
this is the Monday show episode 17th. That is true.
It's usually the old ones. So we number this.
We number.
Core is numbered, right?
Yeah, but I don't really mention it, so I don't know why I keep doing it there.
FilmSack, we mention.
It comes in handy for FilmSec when we say, there's no way we did such and such movie on film sac and say, oh, no, episode 319.
Yeah.
We totally good.
No, you're right.
It does actually, it is actually helpful.
That one will probably stay.
TMS is just so big now that I feel like it has to stay.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Plus, it's a, I mean, this is a juggernaut.
of episode numbers.
Yeah.
There's other people who do these little tiny, short, daily shows who are maybe up in the,
up in the 2000s as well.
But come on, we're doing a big, meaty, one and a half to two-hour show, four days a week.
Come on.
Come on.
This local channel or local station, X-96, they also podcast their morning show every day.
That doesn't count.
No, I know.
But one guy follows me from that team.
and I put up a note
where somebody said
I know it was like
somebody on a podcast
that said we hit 200 episodes
and they were acting like
that was the ultimate number
and everyone around the table was going
I don't think there's too many
I don't think any other shows
of Dennis like this totally
you know they were just absent
of critical thinking
and I went
I was annoyed and so
so Carrie Jackson
the co-host of X96's morning show here
piped in and he goes
now that's adorable
and he said that because
there's is like
6,000 something.
Oh, wow, yeah.
Yeah.
But they're repurposing their daily content.
They're doing their, the radio thing, and then they're just recording, calling it a podcast, which, okay, sure.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah.
My point, though, being, and his point being that anybody who claims 200 is some kind of massive
number.
It's like, what is wrong with you, people?
You know, there is something to be said, though, when most podcasts peter out within the teens
or 20s, like there was some, it was a one of these podcast movement or one of the,
of these expos, and I want to say it was even Todd Cochran on stage and he was saying,
okay, well, so if you look at the graph of things that have been uploaded to iTunes, shows
that have been uploaded iTunes, and he was able to get the data on all the shows, all the
things that have been called a podcast and uploaded to iTunes. And an honest 90% of them
peter out after somewhere between 10 and 20 episodes. Oh my gosh. Like people get into it.
they are excited about it for for a couple months and then they're like yeah i'm not uh i don't
think i'd have the passion for this anymore the pandemic is over i don't have to do this anymore
yeah i bet there was a big boost during the pandemic of like short run shows that gave up after a while
you know i'm sure there were yeah a lot people said you know while we're sitting at home on zoom
we should record this this is funny stuff yeah and then they were like yeah i don't want to do this
anymore it takes work and it's hard to build an audience and you know all that
And people get discouraged, you know, that's the thing with our shows and what we've done and just what we know that you have to do is that it takes a while for growth to happen, for people to discover your show.
And you can't get discouraged after you've put out six, seven, 20 episodes and say, oh, my God, my listenership is only in the teens or in the dozens or whatever.
You just got to, you know, you keep doing it.
You do the podcasting for you.
and the audience will find you.
Yeah, yeah.
Do what you got to do.
There's your advice.
There's my A&P.
Now I can say it did an A&TP in June.
Perfect.
Well done.
Full season complete.
Bad gay movies.
Thanks, Todd.
Thanks, Todd.
Let's move on to this.
I heard this bird thing and I had to share it with you.
Okay.
A bird thing.
This may seem kind of random and it is, but I'm going to play this for people.
So there's this bird.
It makes this sound.
Normal.
It's bird, right? No big deal.
I want to say that as a, it sounds like a blackbird or a rackle.
You may be right. I don't know. It had a longer beak than usual and it's all I know about it.
I don't know what kind of bird it was.
So that's what, so one more time for reference.
And then here's what you do. You slow that down.
Okay.
This is how birds sound slower. And aren't we all grateful that birds don't sound like this?
So I'm about to play it.
And one more time, I'll play the top one, then I'll play the slow down.
here's the fast here's the slow
aren't you glad birds
you know what I mean
like if they sounded like that I mean that's more like their
dinosaur ancestors I guess
yeah that sounds like oh my gosh
I made you decide like I'm going to slow
this down and see what it sounds like I don't know
I just had gotten this mode of I was doing it
with something else like some
something else a camera I was working on
I was working on a core thing
and I went hey I've got this bird
sound. What does that sound like slow? And I heard it and it scared me. I mean, if you heard that
at night, imagine being in bed at like midnight, you hear that out the window. What would you do?
Yeah, I'd move. I'd move to someplace that doesn't have birds. Horrifying. Horrifying. I guess
they got penguins, but that's fine. They probably don't make that kind of noise. And that makes
me wonder, I mean, you hear, you know, scientists are always changing. It's an evolving understanding
of dinosaurs. They had feathers, we now know, and they had colors and they had all these things that we
didn't know at first. And also we think the shapes may have been different because we don't know
where their fat stores were. So we see a dinosaur and it's kind of, you know, just us putting
skin on a skeleton and assuming where muscles are and stuff. But we don't really know. So the more
knowledge we get, the better. And on the sounds, I know that there's been studies on this where
they think, well, the Jurassic Park T-Rex is probably wrong. It's more guttural and less, less in your
face or whatever. I think they all sounded like that. They all sounded.
sounded like that.
And I'm terrified now.
So birds, stay where you're at, keeping your lane.
Don't evolve again, you weirdos.
Freaking birds, man.
I don't trust them.
You know, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum sitting there looking at the dinosaurs and saying,
well, you know, here's my chaos theory about this whole thing.
Oh, look, there's a, there's a Bronosaurus over there about to make a sound.
And then it goes.
Okay, yes, we're going to be taken off here.
Hammond, does that helicopter all powered up?
Very sparkly.
I love it.
They want to bail early.
That'd be great.
That's a big pile of shit, he'd say.
Nice park.
You aren't you?
You aren't going to have people in your dinosaur park, aren't you?
Yep.
No, I am not doing crickets or snakes by O'Cow.
I'm done with these.
These scare me.
I don't like them.
All right.
Lisa wrote in and has a theory.
I'd like to share it.
This is for you, Brian.
She says this.
Brian has been watching the show Better Things
before he had the dream about the woman he can't identify.
It's true.
My theory is that he saw season 5, episode 5.
The world is mean right now, is the name of it, where the mom, Sam, goes to her doctor's
office, and the receptionist, played by Lennon Parnum, is a complete jerk.
Lennon doesn't look like Wendy Malick, but Pam Alden looks like a short version of
Wendy.
Maybe this subconscious mix of Pam and Lennon, hoping I've cracked the case.
Love the show, though, Lisa.
Has she cracked the case?
It's not cracked the case.
And it's funny you bring up that description
because that was the clip that I used for recommendals
when I recommended the show.
Was that clip of her interacting with that jerk receptionist
who was like, well, you know, you need to make a new appointment.
We can't do that one.
It's like, well, no, you need to cater to me.
I made the appointment.
You know, you need to reach out to me and say,
we can't do it and just don't change the date on me.
But no, it's definitely not Lenin Parham, who,
I know from
I mean I recognized her in that thing
but my God I know her from other things
I'm trying to think of what I'm got to look at her
her deal yeah she was on Parks and Rec
she was on Veep
she's been in so much stuff
and she does play that kind of
irritating little splinter
under your skin really really well
she's about the right age though so I mean
you know brunette about the right age
you know we're getting there
We've narrowed it down, you're saying a little bit, maybe possible.
I've been saying 50-plus-year-old brunette, slightly nasal voice for a while.
It's definitely not, oh, I can't think of her name.
If you can think of her name, it's probably not her, because it's not a name.
Like, you know, somebody's going to say, is it Jennifer Connolly?
And they say, well, no, I know who Jennifer Connolly is, and I wouldn't have a hard time remembering Jennifer Connolly.
This is like some character actress that
That
Her name is definitely not
Carbonated Meat. We know that for sure.
That's not her name.
And there is
There's a Google
that got set up
And I think we're at
103 names
And I've checked each and every one of these
I've clicked. There's an automatic link
that goes to a Google search
Of all the photos of these people
And I go to that
I go to the links and I say, is that her?
Nope, it's not her.
Can you link that in the chat?
I want to see this.
I've never seen it.
Oh, you've not seen the list.
It's great.
It's this, bomb bats did this or who did this?
All the bomb bats did this, yeah.
Okay.
Oh, yeah, look at that.
That's great.
And there's links.
This is awesome.
All right.
Oh, my gosh, there's a lot of people on this thing.
Yeah.
Okay.
And if you look through that list and you're like, oh, yeah, I know who, you know,
caught your herbers is, or Kate Mara or Joanna Cassidy or Jamie Gertz.
then chances are it's not her because I know those names and
wow well that's fantastic uh let us know if you have any more theories sorry Lisa
you came you know you came close to the sun yeah yeah yeah you know it's uh and that's
going to be it it's going to be that i'd seen her on something recently and better
things is a great example we're in the middle of season four right now um
which i think she got the season wrong on this one because it was the um
Season 5 episode 5?
Yeah, season 3 is the one I pulled the clip from.
Gotcha.
Okay.
Need to watch that.
Yeah.
I have a big list.
I have a lot of lists of things my friends recommend, and I'm behind on all of them.
Well, that's one that's one that you and Kim are absolutely going to love.
But first, you've got to watch Billy and Molly an otter love story.
Yeah, that is actually, that is literally next.
I'm going to watch that next.
You sold me last Wednesday.
We've got a week of no recommendals.
because we got Wednesday off, so this is a good week to catch up on things that people have recommended to us, and so that's what I'm doing, too.
Damn straight. We got another thing here. This is why we have some more clarification potentially here, why we have so much Florida man from an anonymous texter.
Okay. And I didn't really know this. I guess I kind of intrinsically knew this, but I didn't really know this.
It says, Florida seems to have the most crazy Florida man stories because for years now, Florida has published their intent.
entire policed arrest records publicly, thus giving news sites an easy access to their stories
by simply skimming the publication for the most outlandish arrests.
These states either don't approve easy access to their police, blotter,
or they have only recently begun publishing them.
I didn't know that.
I didn't know that Florida had a policy of just putting it out there.
I assume to discourage others, right, from committing crimes.
That's why you do it.
Right.
Because then they'll get, they'll get,
publicity, you'll get their 50 minutes of fame.
I feel like that almost like is an enticement.
Like, hey, if I do something real bad, I could end up on the police blotter website.
And people are going to find me and talk about me on their weird news stories across the country.
Yeah.
I don't think, like I looked it up, after I got this text, I went and looked it up.
I can't find a Utah equivalent to this.
So I don't think we do this.
Not the same way.
You may still get a news story.
Guy at the road, shot four people and ate a chicken, more at 11.
Like, you hear that all the time.
But I don't hear about all the weird ones.
like guy found urinating in a cup or a dude you know whatever weird thing it is where they're and the weird place they're doing it we don't hear about them here so yeah i just did a search for colorado police blotter and i did find Colorado Springs
um uh boy these are these are these are these are these are grim these are not ones i'd want to read on the air
as some of these i don't even
yeah color springs is kind of the florida of colorado really
if you if you're breaking it down all i'm looking at the blotter and all it is is
just how do you get a hold of the police police departments in your area that's really it
really you don't have like a um mine i it came to a page where it says you know you have to
agree that you um you will not in any manner intimidate or harass any person listed in the
blotter, you will not use the information for pecuniary gain, you understand that information
may change.
There should be something here that says you will not talk about it on your podcast.
But I would see it.
I guess maybe that would be the pecuniary financial gain.
Oh, here we go.
Well, this is just Cash County, which is a tiny county.
But there's no Salt Lake County one, which is where the good stuff would be.
So this, all right.
Well, Cash County.
come after me, I guess, if I'm going to mention these. Let's see. Medfall is the nature of the report. I don't know what that means. Police and police are on the case. A 911 hang up. Oh, med, meaning a medical incident and the fall is the incident. Okay. 9-11 or 911 hang up. Medical breathing. Medical heart problem, alarm intrusion, custodial.
Let's see. Animal problem. I mean, these are boring. It's Cash County. I don't care about this stuff.
Give me, give me floor-to-man level access to your bullshit. That's what I want.
Right, right. Yeah, let's see. Let's see. Is there an Arvada police blotter?
Not seeing one, but I'm sure there is one. A crime watch.
You probably do it by county, right? That's how ours are.
Yeah, Jefferson County. There we go.
Let's see. Police blotter, 614, 20, 24. So that's, so that's, so it's, so it's, so, so, it's,
a few, it looks like it's a few days back, but that's all right.
Hmm.
Oh, yeah.
All right.
Oh, it's a little bit.
Yeah, mine's, it doesn't have the level of detail that the one in Colorado Springs had where it, uh, it just says like, traffic stop, unwanted party, suspicious incident, loud noise.
Yeah, that's all these are too.
That's boring.
Yeah.
You know what you should do?
You should test it, Brian.
Do something gnarly and then see what they do.
No, I don't think I want to do that.
You don't want to be the one?
I'm sure.
I'm sure.
I'm sure I could find, you know, my last one was my last speeding ticket.
God, it's been years.
I wonder if I could find that if I went to that specific date on the police border.
It would just be listed as, you know, traffic stop.
How many of those have you had in your lifetime, speeding tickets?
Speeding or parking.
We can group them.
Oh, well, okay, parking tickets, two parking tickets for speeding tickets.
Okay.
I've had no.
And one impeding traffic ticket during rush hour when I was slowing down and waiting for the car to my right to let me in so I could get off the next exit.
Oh, they give you a ticket for that.
In rush hour, they gave me an impeding traffic ticket.
Unfortunately, that was the dumb one where I didn't show up to court.
And that's when they put me in jail for a couple hours.
And my dad bailed me out.
Happy Father's Day.
Yeah, happy Father's Day, Dad.
Thanks for bailing me out.
What a dumb ticket.
That's a dumb ticket to get.
It was a really dumb ticket.
And when I finally did after my, by, you know, the hard time that I put in, those few hours in jail when there was nothing to read but religious pamphlets.
God, I wish I would have thought to bring a book.
After I got out and then I did go to the court thing, I said, yeah, it was, you know, here's the speeding, or here's the impeding traffic ticket that I got.
But if you look at the time and where it was at, it's on that stretch of I-25 where at 5 p.m., 515 p.m., cars are just not moving.
He's like, well, why did they give you a ticket for that?
Yeah, okay, no point.
You pay 25 bucks, no points, here you go.
And kind of back to me, it's like, well, shoot, why didn't I do this to begin with?
Yeah, but, you know, you're young.
You don't know.
You don't know what's up.
It was a listen.
Good that I get the jail experience from that and not from, you know, something else later on.
because I didn't have that experience.
Yeah, all your breaking and entering you were doing,
it's good that you didn't go in for that.
That's right.
All my B&E.
Yeah, all the old B&E days.
Brian, what do you do when a device doesn't boot?
Yeah, so a friend listener here, Nicholas, lives up in Boulder,
worked for a company called Dash,
or I guess worked for a company called Stages,
and they make a little bike computer called a Dash.
Looks like this thing right here in my little hands.
And what this does is it has a GPS in it.
It has their servers in it.
And as you're writing, it notes your speed.
It notes your altitude gain.
And it'll connect with Bluetooth devices to monitor your heart rate and also your cadence, your peddling speed, and things like that.
And they were nice enough.
When the company was in business, they've since gone out of business, he was nice enough to hook me up with one of their, one of their
demo units and I just
you know hey report any problems that you come up with and let
us know and that will help us out because it's like
a you know
in the field use and helps us out
with that sure oh yeah I'm sorry I never did ask you about your speeding
and parking tickets so oh you don't need to ask
it's fine somewhat in the chat ask but I've
had two just now that we brought it up two tickets
one parking one speeding and then I almost
got that one for
changing lanes in an intersection
but then the cop got
got distracted by the lady in the van screaming.
Did I tell you that one?
Some lady, some van pulled up in front of the police car while he's out talking to me about to give me a ticket.
And she goes, she's freaking out.
And so he goes, all right, we got an emergency.
Just don't do this again and just left.
Nice.
So you might have gotten a ticket from that one.
And I hope everything was fine in that van.
I don't know a thing about what happened there.
Sure it was.
Anyway.
Sure it was.
Sorry.
Anyway, so he gave me this unit and I'd been using it.
And what that does is allows me not to have to do all the monitoring and stuff on my phone, say, battery power on my phone.
And it just does it all on this, a device that's kind of made for that sort of thing.
That's cool.
Charge this thing up, and I was going to use it the other day, and I noticed it just won't turn on.
And so you've got a device like this, Scott, that doesn't turn on.
Tell me what is your process for?
What do you do then?
When you know, it's like, well, this was working the other day.
It's fully charged.
What do you do?
So the first thing I do is a combination of long presses to see if, you know, power.
Press and hold, long press and hold on the power button.
Right.
Very common thing with a phone or with a anything, really, computer, whatever.
So I would do that first.
If that didn't do anything.
That did not work was the next thing you do.
I would plug it into a charging source.
Okay.
And then I would try the same thing, long press to turn the power on.
If that didn't work.
Yep.
I think at that, I'm trying to think if I'd do anything else.
At that stage, I think I would probably, you know, call whoever, you know, email support.
Let's say you examine the device and you do see a little tiny circular hole.
Okay.
Now right there.
About the size of a pinhole.
Okay.
About the size of a paper clip.
I might push that.
Yeah.
I might, because some stuff does that where that's how you reset things, especially
back in the day.
Let me guess this wipes it or something.
No.
So I, you know, I reach out to him.
I said, yeah, I can't get this thing working again.
I told him I did the lung press.
I did that.
I made sure it was charged.
It wasn't working.
And I even tried resetting it by putting a paperclip and pushing on the reset button on
the back.
He says, oh, yeah, no, you just jammed a paperclip through the altimeter.
Oh.
Apparently the thing that determines what your altitude is, it's a little pressure, you know, it uses air pressure probably to figure out what level you're at.
And apparently, I just puncture the little membrane that does it.
Now, as a designer of a product, wouldn't you maybe, if you're making a little electronic device, wouldn't you maybe put a little note next to that little hole that says altimeter hole?
or not make it look like everything else's paperclip hole and maybe do a, like, I would think, oh, make it look like a bunch of little holes like a speaker grill, smaller ones, right?
Like, and you ship it with a little stick tab that's on it and it's red and it says, do not put objects in hole.
That's something like that.
Something like that.
That's another, yep, exactly.
Altimeter.
Just put the word altimeter next to the hole or something.
Sure.
Then you'd know it wasn't the thing you're supposed to poke to resell.
anything yeah exactly so uh this is like somebody poking it's like if if you showed up if you washed up
on the shore of some alien planet and they were like i can't get him to boot try sticking a pin
through his ear right oh no oh no we've we've punctured his brain well all right just hope we get
another human yeah i like i like that so so there's no yeah that's that's that means that thing
shot right it won't work no it just means that it won't um i mean it still hasn't powered up
obviously damaging it like I did,
won't make it so it won't be able to do altitude anymore
until they just replaced that little piece.
But, you know, it still should boot up and just say,
can't do altitude.
Sorry, you've broken me.
Yeah.
So either way, that thing is going to have to go back
because it won't, it won't boot.
Go back to the company that doesn't exist.
So he actually, I'm meeting up with him on Wednesday morning
to talk about some pre-ride stuff for the MS-150.
Dude is a hardcore cyclist.
He does, he is, you know, he makes, I mean, about every cyclist makes me look like a little podunk tricycle rider.
But he's, he's big into it.
And so he's going to be like, yeah, I'm going to show you a faster way to lube your chain than probably what you're doing.
And I'm going to show you a couple things here.
And then I've got another spare device.
I'm just going to let you borrow it, you know, while I see if I can fix this one.
is like, oh, great, cool, thanks.
All right, nice guy.
So I'll have a bike computer for the ride, at least I hope so.
I hope he's still got one that he's going to lend me.
Yeah.
But I've been pricing these things.
Like, they're not cheap.
$200 for a biking computer that, you know, does speed and GPS and Bluetooth connection to your heart and cadence devices, things like that.
Sure.
Can it tell how many rotations a second and your tires?
doing all that stuff? I assume it has like sensors
on all that? You can. You can
put a sensor on your
spoke
that passes a thing
on the frame and it'll tell you how
fast your wheels are going. But
really you can get that from
your speed.
That's not going to tell you anything that your speed
won't already tell you. So how do you
so when he says he can help you lube your
chain faster, you do you have to do
mid-ride lubes? Is that a thing?
No, no, no. Every
they say about every hundred miles you should
Oh okay so there's just a maintenance thing
I thought it was like a maintenance thing
And I picked up one of those
I picked up one of those little stands that you put your bike into
It's got a little vice grippy thing on it
And you lift it up and some legs to keep it from falling over
And that way I can kind of have it at the right height
And basically you just take what I've been doing
Is taking one of those shopcloths
And holding it on the chain
Doing the wheel to clean off all the excess gunk
And stuff that's on there from the road
And then you take lube
and as you rotate the chain, you squeeze the bottle loops.
It goes boop, blu, blu, bloop, kind of like the sake bottle at the...
Oh, yeah.
At the habachi place.
And then you basically wait until it goes all, the chain goes all the way around through the circuit.
And then you let sit for a second.
And then you take the washcloth or the shopcloth again.
You wipe off the excess.
And if you get a lot of black, that means you have to keep doing it until it's relatively clean.
Because the lube that's coming out of the bottle is closed.
clear and if it's if it's getting wiped off on the thing black it's not supposed to be black
it's not supposed to be black then you keep doing it yeah we've learned a lot that one clip has been
a powerful lesson over the years lesson in tomatoes right that's it's what we've learned about
tomatoes that's right and now it extends to chains who knew exactly uh all right well tell you what
i do know done always got to get in here we got to play a game and if we don't do it then who will
and if it's not now then when uh so we're going to do that right now and we're going to play this
music.
Brian Dunaway, welcome to the show.
How are you, sir?
Oh, hi, Scott and Brian.
Hi.
Happy Monday.
You too.
Yeah.
How was your father's day?
Do you enjoy it?
Were people nice to you on Father's Day?
You know?
People are always nice to me, Scott.
Hey, it went pretty good.

Except all the kids were doing stuff.
One was taking care of a sick wife.
One was experiencing this.
father's day himself and another one was at the beach with their cousin and so it's just me and
audrey and she's like i'm not sure father and i'm like i get it it's fine yeah that's true it's
true you're not but uh that's right that's okay and you know what look actually that sounds like
the perfect father's day i don't let me let me let me reiterate this i think this is very important
to say fathers don't need anything we don't need gifts we don't need stuff we need you we need to see
you we need to be know that you're thinking about us if we're going to go to dinner great
that stuff's great but you don't need to give me ties or freaking electronic you don't need to give me
anything however i did get some however i did get some so whatever you know yeah but you got those on
your own probably a card is always nice you know go swing by write something nice on a card because it's
yeah or just send me a text i don't even make a little bit of freaking effort yeah bobby says
speak for yourself i want gifts well i understand bobby you're a gift you're a gift you're a gift
toward i get it uh you've got kids of the age bobby where the gifts you get are going to be those
really cool little handmade things that they you know that their mom helped them do in the kitchen
while you're uh downstairs making a podcast so yeah that's that's those are the best gifts yeah that's
those of the years you you want that stuff i got an Atari vcs from audra and so i cannot complain
no yeah how's that going so far is it as weird as i think it is inside that thing absolutely it's
really cool uh you know it's this little
any PC essentially shaped like
something where between a modern
I don't know
Atari 2,600. It's pretty cool.
All right. I believe you. We'll hear more about it on play
retro, I'm sure. Yeah, we'll talk a lot. Oh yeah, absolutely.
All right, well, let's get this game going. Hey, Brian, do you want
to explain how this works and what people could win?
Sure. Sure. Go ahead. Go ahead, Brian. You've heard me say this
enough time. Yeah, take away.
Welcome to the morning. Halfass is a trivia game
where I'm actually going to be giving you the answers. I'll give Scott and
writing category and six possible answers three of which are correct and three like that little
hole on the back of this little biking computer for sticking in a little pin in are incorrect depending
on how they feel about each category they can provide one two or three guesses but if any of those
guesses are wrong zero points for that round get one right gets you a point two right gets you three
points and three right three right gets you five points total for that round the player with the most
points after three rounds wins the prize for their contestant and here are the contestants
you guys going to be playing for scott you're going to be playing for ruff
F-A-L in New Zealand.
Ooh, nice.
Band-meeting, let's do it.
Band-meeting, and Brian, you're going to be playing for Matthew in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Oh, Frenchie.
I got a baton-Uge.
Yeah, you know, that's red stick.
That's what that is.
That's right.
Yeah.
Red stick.
All right, let's get to, hopefully that's a question for you, Scott.
Why is it a red stick?
I don't want to know.
I don't.
Keep moving.
They planted one in the ground and said, this is our city.
Yeah, move on.
We beat the people here.
with the stick, and now it is red.
We win.
Oh, my gosh.
Question number one.
Which of these are things, are inventions that were attributed to Benjamin Franklin?
So, Benjamin Franklin, you know, discovered electricity by tying a key to a kite, so they say.
Spoiler.
What things, what inventions are attributed to Mr. Franklin?
Whether they're true or not, they're attributed to him, right?
Right.
You got your bifocles.
I just saw the last answer.
sweet. Bifocals, odometer, jigsaw puzzle, diving bell, swim fins, and oatmeal. Which of these things
were invented by Oatmeal? I'm doing two, man, because I don't know any. I mean, this is impossible
this list. We watched, but we watched National Treasure together. I definitely know one.
All right, I'm lucky no one. Maybe I'll get lucky. We have not seen National Treasure on Filmsack.
We have seen National Treasure.
smells like, what was the guy
said in the back seat? He says, this car smells like
soup or something like that. He said car smells
weird? He just says it smells weird.
It smells like he was high or something and you have
the clip you played all the time. I thought he had
I thought he had pecan pie in the trunk.
No, that was the other. He says this car smells weird
is what he says. This car smells weird. That's what
he says. Hold on. And that's from
watching National Treasure on Film Sack. I do
not remember this. Hold on.
I don't see it.
You're going to steal the Declaration of Independence.
it's not on here
maybe we didn't
oh no we did
I'm sorry
2015 262
shit
yeah
but I only one
I only learned one thing
from National Treasure
and this was the one thing
I learned
this was the one thing
all right well let's see
let's see
if you really do remember it
I think Scott said oatmeal
because
didn't really
kind of looks like
the
he did not
looks like the guy
on the front of the oatmeal box
um
bifocals, odometer, and swim fins
were invented by Benjamin Franklin
diving bell, jigsaw puzzle, and oatmeal were not.
What was the odometer for? Because they didn't have
cars then. What was he using it for? Probably
horse carriages? Like, something,
whatever had wheels? Yeah, probably.
You're going to say other things, other, yeah,
other things. Did you know, how many miles
have I ridden in this horse
and bugging? Ben Franklin is rolling over
in his, I don't know,
how did he get buried? Anyway, the bifocals
I remember because. Yeah, bifocals were in,
National treasure. Yeah, didn't he have to like dig around that brick or something and he pulled it out and it was the bifocals. Oh, look. And they went all historic on us. Yeah. I always feel like that one's apocryphal, so I didn't pick it. So well done. You're a point ahead, you bastard.
All right.
Oh, yeah. Trains. Of course. Trains, uh, uh, uh, uh, booted boothead wharf. Booth, bood. Yeah. Bood. Good job. Uh, let's get to question number two here.
York City subway stations.
Which of these are subway stations in New York City?
New York City.
Court Square, Park Pobody,
Tremont, Canal Street, Expo, M.R.T, and Fairmont.
Dude, I don't.
I've never been to New York.
Man, I knew I should have went to New York.
You ever have been New York, Scott?
No, but I feel like we've seen enough of New York that we should know a couple of these,
and I don't know any of it is.
It's not like any of the obvious ones.
I'll do these, too.
I don't know.
You're going to do two?
My wife's been up and down this whole stretch,
so she would probably know this, but I don't know.
So I'm picking two.
I don't know.
Okay.
You guys are locked in.
You guys both locked in on Canal Street.
And it's funny because when I,
because I'd try to do these myself before I look at the answers,
I would have said, oh, Canal Street, no, that's in Chicago.
No, it's absolutely New York.
Okay, good.
Street is New York City subway station.
So you both got that one.
Scott added, Tremont, and it's right.
Oh, Scott, moving ahead with one point.
That was a total guess.
Take a chance.
What's the other one?
Court Square is the other one?
Court Square is the other one.
Yeah, Park Oviddy is in Russia.
ExpoMRT is in Singapore, and Fairmont is a station in Philadelphia.
Expo Mert.
Expo MERT.
All right.
Cool.
Expo MRT sounds like a tech conference I don't want to go to and stand in.
It absolutely does.
Oh, gosh.
Yeah.
Forget it.
Yeah, shoot me.
All right.
So, Scott going into the last question with three points, Brian, with two.
Oh, so exciting.
Oh, this will be the first time.
Scott's won a few weeks.
No, I won last week, didn't I?
No, no, on the half-houses part.
I thought I did last week, didn't I?
Did you win last week of half-asses?
I don't think so.
I don't know.
I thought I hadn't seen National Treasure with you guys, so what do I know?
I don't know shit.
You've beaten me a lot recently in the Tad-Pooley feud.
That might be what I'm thinking, yeah.
I've been having a pretty decent run, but you might be right.
all right let's get question number three uh tv shows oh you guys are both going to be great with
this one tv shows that started in black and white but ended in color so when they first
their first episode it was i know like five and you're not going to have any of on this list
that's right i won't i know you're looking for a dillian's island it's not on the list
you're charlesar the dick van dyke show bonanza mr rogers neighborhood lost in space bewitched
and the jetsons three of those started out in black
and white and their last episode was in color.
I only know two of these.
There's one I think I know.
I don't know for sure.
And guess what's not on here?
An easy one like the May bear,
what's you call them?
What's the same?
Andy, Andy Griffiths show.
That's definitely one, but it ain't on this list.
All right, I'm picking two.
That's all I know.
He won't two, so I had to go three because if I don't,
he gets them both, I'll be it screwed.
That's right.
All right.
If we're the same.
All right.
You guys both, you went all over the board.
but you did both agree on Bewitched.
And Bewitched, absolutely right.
Yeah, start out in black and white and was in color after 1966.
Brian, you also said Lost in Space.
Lost in Space was in color also after 1960.
Start out in black and white and it in color.
Scott, you said Bonanza.
Bonanza was always in color.
Oh, shit.
Always in color, as was the Jetsons, by the way.
Mr. Rogers' neighborhood, the other one, Brian got all.
three for five points.
The Kandak always black and white.
The Kandig was always black and white and, yeah,
Jetton's was always in color.
Mr. Rogers was in color after 1969.
I did not get that one.
I didn't think it was every time that Mr. Rogers was in black and white.
First of all, I love that movie that they based around a few years ago.
God, that was so good.
But I'm a huge Mr. Rogers fan.
And I remember seeing a lot of behind the scene footage of black and white,
especially early stuff.
like when he shoots the bird you guys seen that oh if i hadn't thought of that that would have
been in if i'd just thought of that bird oh yeah that's true yeah damn it ah i mean that's weird
because i i think the reason it stuck in my head that he wasn't is because i never saw anything
that wasn't color when i was a kid yeah and we were little we were little we were the target
audience for him so when i was growing up uh we had a black and white tv at my grandmas and so
everything was black and white yeah and it was way it was way late we everybody she should have had a
color TV.
Yeah.
Ridiculous.
You know,
another example
would have been
Beverly Hillbillies.
They started black and white and white.
And they started black and white and edded color.
Yeah.
Such a weird thing.
Well, congratulations then going to,
geez Louise,
why can I pull this page up?
There we go.
Going to Matthew Leak in Baton Rouge.
Matthew,
you are getting a copy of
Victoria 3 and Fashion Police Squad.
Yes,
the game we gave away last week.
Unfortunately,
Free Monster was not able to use it
because his PC crashed
and is not coming back up.
Look for a little tiny hole to stick a pinhole in there
or stick a paper clip in there.
You were really damaged by that, aren't you?
I mean, I'm as damaged as this byte computer is now
from my wayward paper clipping.
Here's even the offending paperclip.
Oh, you even still have that.
Look at it.
Throw that in jail.
Give that two hours in the key.
Yeah, exactly.
I stopped paper clipping things after I left the Android devices
and moved into Apple, and I realized Apple likes to put a lot of holes all over the place.
I'm like, I don't think it's a good idea.
Yeah, but those holes are always like at the bottom, it's all speakers.
Like, it's five holes.
You're not going to say, well, one of these is probably one where you push a paper clip.
It's okay.
When you'll be here Thursday, it's okay.
I need to talk to me about something.
I know.
Yeah, you don't even.
I have a propensity to want to jam paper clips into holes, any hole I see.
The new phones don't even have the, you used to have a pinhole for the, for the SD or not
SD.
Sim card.
Yeah, you have a little sim.
sim card they don't even do that anymore man that's gone now so yeah if you're putting if you're
putting a pin in those speaker holes yeah you're uh you got issues something up to you right
oh do you guys like watching the gross uh videos like on on uh whatever streaming service insert
here i mean you don't even have to finish that no i don't like looking at no no no the ones
where people like clean all the little speaker holes and stuff out with with different things oh
you get satisfaction from that um like yeah yeah i do i do
They've got to be short, though.
I don't want some long-form thing.
Give me a short or a...
Bill gives us those all the time, right?
Where you got the, like, this old telegraph machine that somebody found, and they're restoring it and polishing it and fixing the wood and that sort of thing.
Yeah.
I see people put in, like...
I see people put in, like, the glue, the stick glue inside stuff, and I'm like, well, that seems dangerous, but I've seen people clean it out with that.
And it's like, okay.
Yeah.
I tell you what I don't want to watch is watching somebody clean their...
their AirPods, their iPhone AirPods.
Yeah.
For some reason, that's too far for some reason.
Usually because I think the phone stuff is usually like food particles.
Right.
When they do the ear pod, just like, ooh, that's...
That is all ear stuff.
Yeah, exactly.
Disgusting.
Gross.
Well, well done, done away.
I think that you deserve a little bit of a ding.
I deserve this thing.
Man, I studied my entire life for that TV shit.
I was going to say, this finally pays off like 40 years later.
you get to use the knowledge you have to you did really well yeah it's it's been a while since you've uh since
anyone's gotten a three for like where they get all three correct answers so nice job yeah well done uh pleasantly surprised but you forced me i had no choice got that's right that's right that's right that's right that's what i do uh also you'll be back wednesday we'll play a little tad poolie feud then and until then i hope you have just nothing but an amazing couple of days oh no you're not gonna be here because we don't have a show wednesday yeah juneteenth baby we're off we're off the nice sorry the chet find out this way
I guess you are too, right?
You do, you guys observe federal holidays at your job, right?
We do, but we did not go with this one.
Not with the black, not the one for the black folks down there in North Carolina or South Carolina.
I see, I see how it is.
Yeah.
Well, we don't do all national holidays where I work.
So it's kind of like a little bit of, and they only have so many allocated per year.
And so there's been talk about moving stuff around, but it's only been a national holiday for, what, three years now?
So they just haven't worked it in.
They're slow here.
They're always slow.
I'm sure that's all it is and not deep-seated southern problems.
I'm sure that's all it is.
I'm sure of it.
I'm positive.
Kiss my butt.
Kiss my butt.
All right.
Oh, I love giving him shit.
All right.
By the way, I had a conversation with Dunaway yesterday.
Thanking him for being that kind of friend where you can be like, you can give each other shit on air.
It doesn't matter later.
Yeah.
know each other that well you know that's the great thing about most frog pants hosts we're all
kind of like that yeah totally but he he and i in particular so the guy who thinks i hang up on
brian too quick or that it's all that just know that he and i are like brothers out off air we don't
have it doesn't this doesn't exist me hanging up on him doesn't extend to real life all right yeah it's
not uh right exactly we we there's a lot of love here in the frogpans community that's correct
all right we're gonna uh time is it we're gonna do one new story a quick one okay and uh we're gonna
start it right now so here we go right here right now it's time for the news brought to you
by brought to you by trivia question for me from scott uh in which sport are barani rudolph and
randolph all techniques so i guess i can't hem and ha on this one a lot because uh we got news to get
um but i'm thinking like all right uh you know things that have techniques right sports that have
techniques i think of chess is having techniques right like there's a there's terms for like
castling and um and um and and different ways of starting positions and stuff like that but i don't
recognize that as any of the chess ones that i know um barani makes me think maybe something in the
east something influenced by the east but rudolph or randall certainly don't seem like it um i'm gonna say
high lie hi lie is brian's answer the uh let's find out from the judges is that correct
the incorrect answer is highlight the correct answer is trampolining trampolining really oh that's interesting
which is considered a competitive sport in some sort of sure yeah so it's probably like like techniques
so probably like the the somersault and the twist and stuff like that those are those are trampoline
technique i do wonder what the difference between a rudolph and a randolph is i didn't look that up
forward or backwards probably probably it's probably the same thing but you do one backwards and you do one
forwards and they just said well we need some name that's similar to this one for that
technique let's just call it a Randolph instead of a Rudolph got to say it was a pretty good guess
though I think you had a good guess um trampolining not something that uh as far as I know
originated in the east no least but who knows you never know
Pakistan is what I was thinking with Barani all right anyway here's a quick story about a
dude a man who had his drug charge dropped because it was baking powder not the cocaine
they accused of having okay uh Brendan
Bullduk.
Bulldok.
It's kind of an Eastern European last name.
Blduk.
Or maybe Polish, I'm not sure.
Started crying while standing in the Sarnia
courtroom prisoners box, but in a rare case,
they were tears of joy.
Justice of the Peace, Helen Gale was in the middle
of giving her decision on whether he'd be going to bail
or sorry, whether he'd be getting bail
when federal prosecutor Brian Higgins interrupted
with some late breaking news.
Quote, I received an analysis about 15 minutes ago
and was confirmed with the police that it did relate
to the 52 grams that were seized,
it was baking soda.
So that charge can be marked withdrawn,
he told Gail in the court last week.
I'm sorry I barged in,
but I did not receive the,
but I did just receive this analysis
according to this article.
Kind of ridiculous that it gets to the court case
before they test the thing
to find out if it's drugs.
I agree.
It should be, before you even get arrested
or like maybe while you're in holding,
you know, oh, we did a test.
It's actually just baking powder.
Yeah.
And I'm, and I'm,
why isn't in a clear bag?
marked cocaine. Yeah. And I'm guessing if that guy busted in, part of the reason he busted in
was he is trying to head off an investigation into their methods because if the prosecution's
office has gone this far and they're only just now learning that what they thought was the
drugs are not. Like that's effed. Someone screwed up. It's totally effed. Yeah. Boo. Someone screwed up
there. Wherever this took place. Booth. Yeah, boo. Where is this? I was trying to figure that out.
Uh, warwick township? Is this a Canadian, Canada? Canada. Really? Yeah, Canada did it.
Canada. Well done, guys. Well done. It's going to do it for the news. We're going to come back here in a moment. And when we come back, we're going to be visited by Travis because we're swapping days with him and Bobby. Although Bobby's still in the chat, so I don't know what Bobby's doing. Did he leave yet? I don't know where he is. I haven't seen him post in a while.
Totally fine. The conference about how much he loves gifts on Father's Day and then he left.
And then he just bailed.
Off that fart and left.
Yeah.
I'm out.
Anyway, we'll have Travis here, and Bob, you'll be back tomorrow.
We've just swapped them around.
So we're going to be doing all that in a minute after Brian tells us what song we're playing.
Yeah, a brand new album came out this last Friday called Basketball Camp.
It comes from a band called Black Hippie.
And they spell Black Hippie with a V instead of an A, kind of like Churches spells churches with a V instead of a U.
So don't call them a Bluck Hippy thinking that V is pronounced like.
the U and Churches, think of it like an upside down A, but then don't also then call
Churches Charges because you think that they do the same thing with their V.
No, no, no, it's churches and it's Black Hippie.
Anyway, brand new album is called Basketball Camp.
Big thanks to the record machine for getting this thing out.
To me, this is great.
This is three years after their debut LP, if you can feel, I'm sorry, if you feel alone
at parties, which did really well, kind of a lo-fi, R&B indie sound to it.
They continue that with this one.
Here's Black Hippie.
with a brand new song called Sport House.
Every time I look between your odyssey, the market gave the open
Jasker funeral seems a little cliché, I don't want to play how I left you behind in high school
Just end up missing when it buried you regret it seems uncooled
I don't know why I still talk about things that I can't change
I'd rather be alone again
And I know that sounds strange
And I can't keep it
And you can't keep it in trying on a
Strangest run
I think they find me love me here
And where am I where has the sympathy
There's no place for it here
There's no place for you here
minute to return your call on just tired of feeling about what you won't tell you parents
you seem to not miss your own friends have you even tried i can't keep living off the gullough few
than i die it's never my fault there is nothing that i can change i'd rather be alone
again, I know that sounds strange.
Numbers matter to me like people watching their waistlines,
spending year in love with hugs, kisses and facetimes,
Feel the next more than my love, she replaced minds.
Put the next more to how much the shit was a waste of time.
Letting people live, brand free.
It's a waste of mind, but anger is an energy.
I like you think I'm doing fine.
We have the heart, banish my trust,
blocking your takes, I don't want to butt,
I don't want to touch, I don't want to speak.
You have to pitch a best thirsting to me,
bitch why has your best thirsting to me?
We have the heart,
Venice and stress, eye on the prize, I have enough.
What have it you?
This shit isn't wrong.
Issues we got, can fill up a truck.
Move it alone.
We don't feel better.
What feelings worth staying for if it ain't pleasure?
Incompatibility ain't making you wet it.
Look at the clock.
Free up your time.
He raised my foul.
Free up your mind.
We hot and we cold for walking the line.
Hey, what the fuck do you want for me?
It gets old living uncomfortably.
Arguing to fight you constantly.
Come easily because you ain't to want for me.
I'd appreciate if you want for me.
We have the heart.
That is trust.
Turn off your brain.
Trust in your gut.
Stop being scared of this confident.
of this confident blight spread out your wings and go for the live making it
way we can stay that we try now let's shut it down so we can survive hey let's shut
it down so we can survive you think your presence is hit on the womb and you're showing up
that's twisting a knife I can't keep you when you draw it on strangers from alone I think
they finally love me here and where am I
Where I had the sympathy door?
There's no place for it here.
There's no place for you here.
Oh.

Darling, you ought to talk Freddie. His recent obsession with marriage one,
a production is really too much.
What kind of a fascist hash foundry are you running here?
Sure, that is a band called Black Hippie, but it's spelled with a V, just to let you know.
The brand new album is called Basketball Camp.
Just came out on Friday, thanks to the record machine for letting me know about it.
That's the first single. It's called Sport House.
Awesome.
Sport House.
We have joining us now, the Mr. Mr. Mr. of all misters.
This is Travis, and you'll do well to listen carefully to what he has to say.
TV's Travis, aka Travis Crawford, joins us as he usually does month,
although we're swapping days because Bobby had a thing, and I'm really glad he did.
Hi, Travis. How are you?
Hi there.
See, I have a soundboard.
Hey, you do.
That was fantastic.
I'm going well, how are you?
What is that?
Wait, hold on.
Don't tell me what that's from.
Oh, okay.
Smash Brothers?
No.
It's from a song.
I'll tell you that.
Oh, oh, my,
sledgehammer, that's the one.
Close.
Right guy, wrong song.
Oh, big time.
Big time.
Shit.
I'm on my way.
The one with all the animation
and the clay and stuff.
Nope, that's still sledgehammer.
Although big time had a lot of weird
stuff in it too.
What did, but I don't even remember the video for big time.
I don't even remember the video for big time.
I don't, I don't, like, because when I think of it, I, uh, immediately all the images from sledgehammer.
From sledgehammer, all the Play-O, style, train going around his head and him, and him, like, and him, like, and him, like, and him, like, and him, like, and him, yeah, that's so weird.
Yeah. That's so, so, so bizarre. So weird. Um, all right.
It's concerned is that damn Wang Chung video with the, uh, where they're, like, you know, it's double-headed.
Oh, they all had to Wang Chung tonight. They only had that night to Wang Chung, and they had to do it.
We only had that one night, and, uh, they had to do it in a dance whole day.
That's right. That's right. Well, anyway, it's good to have you here, Travis. Hope you're, hope you're well. You also, didn't you end up, you saw something that I saw. And I wanted to talk about it. And I forgot what it was. We were commiserating on threads. It was something about. You said, oh, I saw it too and I loved it. And I was like, oh, I got to talk to Travis about it. I don't remember what I was. I don't remember either. It was something cool. I thought to myself, I could reply here or say myself the typing. Yeah. And then I'll just talk about it. But you know what I didn't do was write it down. All right. Don't worry about it.
Uh, hey, come to us with questions.
You're going to, you're going to, uh, trivia us.
How does, how's that going to work?
Explain it.
Yeah.
So it's the all trivia Monday.
Uh, no, this is, uh, name that thing.
We're going to do, uh, back and forth, five rounds.
I'll give you a topic.
And, uh, you will, you will bet on how many, uh, clues you need.
Name that tune style.
All right.
Excellent.
All right.
And starting this, this month, we'll have, uh, Brian will do round one.
Uh, round one.
We're doing a movie, and I'm going to give you members of the cast.
Cast members in a movie.
I tend to go too short to begin with, and then, you know, by the time the back and forth is over, we're like at two cast members, and it's never enough for me.
It's like, you know, Frank Beardman or something like that, and it's a no, not the member of Zizi Top.
So I'm going to, I'm going to go a little higher and kind of give us a little bit of playing room for the starting one.
and I'm going to say six.
I can name it in six.
All right.
Scott,
how about you?
Do you think you can do it in less?
See, I think Brian's going to say you can, if I say five, you could say four and still be safe.
I'm going to, I'm going to try to do it.
And I can go lower, right, Travis, if I want?
Yeah, you can go lower, not sure.
I'll try it in four.
Four.
All right.
Okay.
All right.
Do I want to do three?
Yeah.
That's the Kirstian.
That is the Kirstian.
All right, I'll try in three.
All right.
Go for it.
Three, okay.
Name that thing.
Here are your three cast members.
Hank Azaria.
Okay.
Robin Williams.
Oh, shit.
Gene Hackman.
Shit.
Well, if this is what I'm thinking of, it's a movie, I have not seen.
Wait, you haven't seen, and I believe it's the birdcage.
That is correct.
Damn it.
I could have done that in two.
Yeah, Gazzari Robin Williams
Yeah, I love that movie
We just watched it in fact again
I watched it like once a year and I love that movie
I saw that it just got added to something
Some service that I use and
And I was like
Oh, well now it could be the finally
It could finally be the time I see it
You should, it's so good man
It holds up, it feels like it was just made
It never feels old
It's so good
No, it really doesn't feel old at all
And I would pester you to come on to wait
You haven't seen to watch it but I've already done it
somebody's already not watched i've already found somebody
wait they haven't seen bird cage okay cool yeah got it um but definitely do watch it
because it's might be my favorite robin williams movie i think it's real close if it's not
my favorite it's dang close and it's also my favorite um there are two movies in 97 that
just resonate all these years later and don't feel like they were made that long ago
you know 26 years 27 years ago and that's this and gross point blank they both came out that
year. What a great year for comedies that are comedies, but they're also something more.
And the birdcage is a little more than just a comedy. It's so good.
It's cool. All right. I'm making sure that I watch it. Maybe I'll watch a while. I'm on the
exercise bike in Vegas. That'll be a good, a good first, first watch. I like it. I think my favorite
Robin Williams currently is Fisher King. Fisher King's real good. It's a good movie. Yeah, love it.
All right. All right. All right. All right.
to Scott you're going to start the bidding on this one we're looking for an actor
and I'm going to go with titles of movies this actor has been in okay
I can do it in three I got to be aggressive oh
starting out strong yeah all right Brian the gauntlet has been thrown can you do it
in less than three so I can only do two or or one or say name in three I mean I've got
if I if I say nothing he tries it in three if I at least
least go for two, then I've got a chance. So I have to go for two.
All right.
If I go one, it's kind of silly to say, here's an actor.
Name the movie I'm thinking of that is in.
Yeah, name it in two, I would say.
Good strategy there, Scott.
Yeah.
Very good.
All right.
Brian, here are the two movies.
Whip it.
Flatliners.
All right.
So, let's see here.
And you won't tell me whether it's the,
new or old flatliners, right?
But it's probably the old flatliners.
I won't tell you which one it is.
Yeah, that's fine.
Nobody saw the new flatliners.
Okay, so I'm thinking of the principal cast.
And I know what WIPP it's about, and I'm trying to think of where there would have been some overlap.
Let's see.
Yeah, no, I'm thinking it has to be, I'm going to say Oliver Platt.
Incorrect.
Okay.
So, Scott, because you guessed three to start, you get one more movie.
You get one more movie.
Okay, I'm at it.
So you get a third one, and that is Inception.
Oh, then this is the newer one, because that would be, well, now, Elliot Page.
That'd be Elliot Page.
Correct.
that was that was I wasn't sure if it was the old one of the new one because I'm like Brian
I was thinking nobody saw that I have not seen did we we haven't watched the new flatliners for
anything no we should just see what's up we should check it out yeah I'll be honest
until I started researching for for doing this quiz I'd completely forgotten there was a new
version of flatliners yeah just didn't know at all to me this this falls into that category
What's the other one?
Total Recall, the remake of Total Recall,
not remake, but the other
total recall, because it's not really a direct remake.
But that thing is one I've never, I still haven't seen that.
I feel like we should sack it, sack it.
And that's Colin Farrell in the remake, right?
I believe so, yeah.
With the new adaptation.
Yeah, and I like him and everything.
Yeah, we're on to round three, our musical round.
Brian, you're going to start the bidding on this.
It's a song.
I have clips of one second,
two, four, eight, and twelve seconds.
Those are the clips I got of this one.
Okay.
Good Lord.
Um, I will do, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will wager.
You said one, four and what was the next one up?
Eight.
Eight.
I will do eight.
Eight seconds.
All right, Scott.
And six was the one below that?
Four is the one below that.
Oh.
that's a lot
in this context
four seconds is a lot
it can be yeah
I feel like I should just
I'd at least try
yeah I'll do it
I'll do it in four
yeah all right
I'll take the two
Brian do you want to
you want to go for two seconds
all right
all right Brian
here is your two seconds
hopefully you get to
you have gotten to answer these
you got to answer that
that last one.
All right.
Two seconds.
Here we go.
Oh, come on.
Wow, that would be the David Bowie track.
Let's dance.
Yep, nice job.
That is.
The timing for that one, because it's such a repetitive intro,
I had to go a little bit longer until I got to something that wasn't just that.
That's why I ended up at 12 seconds.
I was going to say, yeah, it does that thing for a while.
But cool.
I feel pretty good.
Good that I would have gotten that in one second, too.
It's a very iconic, and I'm a huge Bowie fan.
You've got to put on your red shoes, man.
That's what you got to do.
That's right.
All right.
We're sitting at 2 to 1, Brian, with the advantage, and going into round 4.
Scott, you're going to start the bidding on round 4.
This is a TV show, and we are going by characters in that TV show.
Character names.
Character names.
It's just TV shows all I'm getting.
So let's say...
I really got to go for it here.
I'll say I can do it in, I'll do it in three.
Do it in three, all right.
Such a good strategy because my only options are two or let him have it.
And again, if I let him have any misses, I don't get four because there was never a four wager.
So I have to do two.
That's correct.
Yeah.
Although I would get the same three, but yeah, I'll try two.
I'd say, let's see if you can do it.
I'm going to try to steal.
So Brian,
all right.
Brian,
here's your two characters from this TV show.
All right.
Patrick Brewer.
Twyla Sands.
Twyla.
Twyla.
Twyla.
Oh my gosh.
Is that a you know it?
Oh my gosh.
No, it's a,
this is hard.
Twyla.
Why am I thinking?
I'm thinking Twin Peaks.
I'm going to say Twin Peaks.
incorrect oh wow um that's a good answer um it's a good answer okay give me one so i get one more right
yep yep uh stevie bud oh it's it's uh shits creek that is correct yeah
twilight of course yeah that's why it's familiar oh man the stevie part yeah that's all i needed
okay yeah nicely done all right so we come down to round five Brian you're going to start our
bidding on round five. And he's still up by one, right?
Uh, coming in, coming in to, it's tied to two. Oh, it's tied now. Okay. And our overall score
coming into this month is Brian three, Scott two. Okay. So, uh, all right. Uh, all right. So
we're looking for a band. Okay. And I've got album titles for this band. Okay.
Oh, shit. This is going to go great. I will, I will, uh, use Scott's strategy against him, say three.
I'll make an effort to do it in two
Do it in two, okay
Brian, do you want to try it in one?
I'll let him have
I'll let him have it in two
It's good, album titles can be very unique
So I think he's probably got a really good chance on this one
I hope so could be
All right, Scott here's your two album titles
Sad Wings of Destiny
Sin after Sin
Sad Wings of Destiny
Mm-hmm
What is that?
familiar?
I don't know.
Why is it familiar?
Sad Wings of Destiny.
I'm of the opinion
if I say it out loud.
Somehow it helps me.
Sad, well, I think I had this.
Sad wings of destiny.
Or sin after sin.
Shit.
It's something.
Sounds like a metal band.
Like 80s metal band.
Hair band, maybe.
I guess I have to answer.
Cinderella.
Incorrect.
All right.
All right, Brian.
I can't thank God because I'm going to need this third one.
Our third album title is Stained Class.
Stained Class.
I have a chance if he gets this wrong, right?
No, I don't, do I?
No.
He just gets it wrong.
No, we have to go to our sudden death.
Okay, okay.
Yeah.
I think I know it.
Stained class.
I got nothing, but I also feel like it has to be an 80s metal band.
I'm going to say Queens Rake.
Good guess.
Oh, not it.
Can I guess, can I guess, even though.
I get no point because I think I figured it
Yeah, absolutely. Go for it. I think it's Judas Priest.
It is Judas Priest.
Damn it to hell, dude. I should have gone.
All right. That's fine.
Yeah, my daughter's really into Judas Priest and that's where I've seen these names lately.
She has these tapes and she listens to the chat with Judas Priest's.
Yeah, Mayor McCheese was the first one to get it.
A couple others were the kind of more giveaway ones were Painkiller and British Steel.
Yeah, okay.
Hey, Mary McCheese, just for fun, send me a DM on Discord.
Gordon, I'll send you some stickers.
I'm in the mood to give away something today.
Give Kim some work.
So since you got...
September, don't be surprised.
That is so out of my wheelhouse.
Metal was the one thing that I did not listen to a lot of until starting to do coverville
and then listening to covers of metal.
Sure.
Right.
So I feel like this is probably a fairly easy theme to figure out for this month.
But any guesses from either of you on what my theme was?
Birchage, Elliot Page.
Or in the chat, if anyone wants to do it as well.
I've been writing them down, trying to think if I can figure them out.
Judas Priest.
So there is a consistent theme.
These sounds so diverse.
There's a theme.
There's something that ties all these together.
Pride, of course, yeah.
Lead singer Rob Halford is gay.
Elliot Page, transgender, birdcage about, about Pride Month.
Yeah.
Yep.
Nice.
Yes.
Well done.
Good job, Brian.
I was like, how does Judas Priest fit in this?
I forgot about Halford's orientation.
And for Judas Priest, I looked at a lot of different musicians trying to find albums and stuff.
And then I thought about it.
And I was like, wait a minute, Judas Priest, that's right up my alley.
That's what I would do.
Yeah.
So it is a band choice.
Giving the dog a bone.
Yeah.
Yep.
All right.
So that puts us at 2-2 after five rounds.
So we need to, we need a winner.
Scared a sudden death, which is our back and forth until one of you fails.
All right.
And what we're going to go with.
Oh, geez.
So now I have.
I've pulled up a list here
and we're going to go with mainline
X-Men characters.
Okay.
Great.
So there's a lot of them.
I love the X-Men.
Brian's probably got an advantage here.
But let's give it a shot.
But we will go and Brian, since you started us off,
I'm going to give Scott the honors to go first
in this sudden death.
It is 2-2. Scott, give me an X-Men character.
Mainline?
Yeah, just anybody that was a member of the main X-Men.
I've got a list up, so we have a ton of them.
Scott Summers, aka Cyclops.
Yep.
Marvel Girl.
Okay.
Rogue.
Okay.
Angel.
That's a good one.
Gene Gray.
Judges.
Does that not count?
She was there in the beginning.
I'm sorry.
So she was Marvel Girl.
She's already been spoken.
Oh, shit.
It was Gene Gray.
See, this is where I suck.
This is where I can't do it.
And that gives Brian the wind.
Damn it.
Why didn't I say something else?
Why didn't I say Beast?
Beast or Iceman or Wolverine or Bernie Guy.
Oh, no, that's a fantastic for her.
He's not in there.
Yeah.
Who am I thinking of?
Wasn't there a flame dude in the end?
Well, there was a sun.
No, Sunspot wasn't.
flames, but kind of.
There was, there, there were definitely
X-Men characters with fire powers.
They're like, yeah, side ones that, oh, Firestar was an
X-Men for a while. Would Jubilee have counted?
Like any of those would have worked.
Jubilee? Oh, yeah.
Jubilee would have worked. Havoc, night crawler,
Banshee.
Damn it.
Storm. I was going to start with the original,
and then fill in the Cockrum ones,
and then fill in the burn ones,
and then wait to see where.
The greatest trick, the devil ever played,
was making, giving Gene Gray like 12 names, man.
how about Phoenix what about Phoenix yeah what about Phoenix is she in there yeah well well done
Brian highly highly deserved uh on that win well done uh Travis that was awesome great one today
puts me down to though two behind now what is it three to two put you down to yep it is
four to four to favor of Brian after six you have that you will have that gap closed in no time
and surpassed because uh your your strategy is
sound. It's not bad when it serves me. It's a very good strategy. But boy, howdy, did I get
some momentum today and then lost it all toward the end? But we'll try again in a month and we'll
see how it goes. In the meantime, Travis, tell people where they can find your cool stuff, man.
So all my stuff you can find at TVsTravis.com. I did a great episode of weight you
haven't seen this week with LaSarge, Matthew Sargent, from the tadpool. He and I talked about
neither one of us had seen fire and ice. Oh. And I love, like, every Ralph back
she thing I've watched, I've enjoyed.
Yeah.
And, uh, yeah, and it's, it's backshee animating with Frank Frisetta doing, uh, the concept
art for it.
And it was cool because they shot all of the movie black and white with actors and
then rhodoscoped and animated that footage.
Oh, wow.
So one of the first had to be one of the, uh, motion picture where they do that, right?
I think so for the whole thing.
I actually love doing that.
Yeah.
He used it another smaller stuff like bits of it.
shorts and animated bits and stuff like that
but that had to be the first time. I can't remember if this
preceded back she's
Lord of the Rings stuff or not.
No, it was after. Lord of the Rings was
78. And this came
on 83. He did
American Pop. Oh, American Pop
that's what I'm thinking. I'm not rock and roll.
Oh, the rock and rule was Bakshi too, wasn't it?
Or no, that was the other
former Disney guy. That was like, yeah.
But I was
really impressed and it's fun too
find the behind the scenes footage of like all the stunt performers and the performers filming
because there's a scene in fire and ice where a giant lizard attacks these
creature these subhuman creatures and so you've got behind the scenes footage of all the stunt
men hanging off of like cranes and heavy equipment and then they took that and they
animated in a giant lizard for all of it it's really cool looking yeah i think the the lord
of the rings back she stuff was also all rotoscoped right there was a lot of it that was
I think of most
Well, I know the scenes
Like anytime they fought the
The Urukai or stuff like that
There were definitely dudes
And oh yeah
Yeah
There was some of it that wasn't even
Rhodoscoped necessarily
It was just like black and white
Or rhodoscoped to like
Silhouettes only
Yeah
Kind of thing
And then they'd animate in like glowing eyes
For the Nasgul or something
You want to hear something crazy
John Hurt
Fantastic actor
Rest His Soul
Was the voice of
Aragon in that.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Anthony Daniels,
voice of C3PO,
was Legulus in that thing.
Wow.
Yeah.
Oh, my gosh.
Honestly.
Made my mom take me to see that.
And she sat through that whole thing and then said,
you know what?
Because I want to see something.
I want to watch.
She took me to another.
We basically went from that theater into another theater at the same
multiplex without paying and watched coming home.
And then she had to cover my face for the boob scene.
John Voight wore things like great
All right
I guess we're
I guess neither of us are going to have a good time
during one of one of each other's movies
Yeah yeah
That's great
That's basically my dad's blanket
But with hands is what that is
Yeah yeah
All right well done
This is fantastic
Go check out his shows
And I'll say this for all of us
When I say Travis
Have a great month
You see you next time
See you Travis
All right
done that was great we got one final uh word here from dave in madison wisconsin he calls it the
cheese and beer capital of the midwest i think that that's probably true you know it's probably
yeah um this is about the midwest and that whole discussion we had about who's in it and people saying
that colorado was in it and i disagreed and all that says dear brian and scud i'm living another day in
beer and cheese paradise listening to the morning stream when wait colorado and idaho are in the
Midwest? He says, no, and I'll die on this hill. Granted, I might follow it up with a giant
Wisconsin. Sorry, I don't know how they say it there. Yeah, probably like that with less,
with less Canada influence. Sorry. Yeah. But, oh, geez, it's just not the case. There are no
actual mountains in the Midwest, just former trash dumps that were covered up with dirt that we
call ski hills. In the middle west, sorry.
middle west of the country after Louisiana
purchase. So no
sorry, so north of the Ohio River
and touching the Mississippi River. Also
if you're past the green line
of the U.S., the 100th
Meridian, guess what? That's not the
Midwest, you know? That's the planes.
Although, be sure to stop and visit
Stephen. Hi, Stephen, he
says. Even if you guys
talk like you're from Minnesota, I'm looking at
the Dakotas, believe you, me, you're not
in the Midwest. No, you
guys, for cripe's sake, stop trying to
or trying to make decode as the Midwest happen.
Don't worry, we still love all of you from a far, sort of, well, mostly.
Keep her moving.
As for me, I'll be rolling with the Holsteins, the Wisconsin way, says Dave.
Love it.
All right.
Oh, my God.
I think that puts it to bed, doesn't it, that whole thing?
Yeah, you know what?
If nothing else, it puts it to bed in a very, very nice, forceful way.
And I'm certainly not going to argue with anyone from the beer and cheese capital of the U.S.
Yeah.
And if Russell Crow said, are you not entertained, I would say I am.
entertained by his email.
Go, Pat, go.
Go pack, go. Whoever, whoever you get in the QB spot at the next year.
That's right. That's right.
Hey, did the NBA championship happen yet?
Hold on. I'm so out of it.
No. They had game, Boston rallied back, if I remember correctly,
and it looked like it was going to be not a shutout, but a slam dunk.
And I think they rallied back on Friday night.
They're playing the Mavericks, right?
Let's see.
Yes.
I'm confusing my, because I know in NHL, they did the same thing.
Edmonton playing.
Oh, tonight they play in the garden tonight, game five, because you're right, Boston, or sorry, the Mavericks rally.
Dallas rallied back.
So it was 3-0, Dallas rallied back, and then, okay.
And they rallied back after like a 20-point lead at the Boston had.
It was insane, yeah.
So in the West, though, are the nuggets still all up?
Bennett or no no no this is the championship this is the oh this is it I'm so out of it dude I'm so
out of it when your local team isn't winning I just get I just don't pay attention yeah um not like I
used to in the 90s I was all into it but not really now and then the NHL final similar kind of thing
where Edmonton was up is that right um Edmonton was up three games to zero and then
Florida rallied back and got one or do I have a
backwards. It was a similar, it was a funny, a similar situation. Florida was up 3-0, and then
Edmonton rallied back for, uh, oh, right, 1-8 oiler, no, let's see. Yeah, 1-8 Oilers.
Yeah. On the 15th, is that? Yes, that was two days ago. Two days ago. Okay. Yeah. All right.
So, you know, if I was a betting man, I'd put money on one of these games. Yeah.
You're not really in your degenerate gambling mode, though, right now. No, I've fallen off. I've really, I've
not bet. I think I placed
some bets when the Nuggets and the
avalanche were in the series and the
playoffs, but I haven't put
anything down on any of the
game since. And I've got money
in my Draft King's account. There's zero reason
for me not to play some
bets tonight, so maybe I will.
I was playing a little Tecmo Bowl 3
for the Super Nintendo on my
Ambernik, and for whatever reason,
I don't remember what year that was.
I could probably figure it out, but the
Denver Broncos, they were using real teams by then
on the TechMobile?
The Denver Broncos.
O.P. as hell in that game.
Their stats, like, maxed out.
Everybody else all back to here.
Like, what is the point?
Why would you play anybody but the Broncos?
Was that, um, was that TechMobile?
Was that in the, uh, Elway years or the Manning years?
I think it would have been Elway because we're, well, in Elway, right, yeah.
Good question.
Yeah, it must be Elway.
Mm-hmm.
And it must be his winning year.
So this would have been like 93 or something.
Wow.
So anyway, well done, Denver, I guess.
Retro Denver.
Right now.
Yeah.
Don't play Tekmo Bowl with any of the teams we've had for the last several years.
Yeah.
A little bit of a bust with a bunch of, like, it feels like we're getting QBs that are American Idol rejects or something.
Like Bo Bice?
Did we get Bo Bice?
And Fantasia Barino, was she a winner?
Yeah.
I think she was a winner, actually.
American Idol winner.
Well, congratulations, everyone.

He actually sent this in January when I had lack of requests then too.
Here is one.
I would like to hear your first.
favorite cover of River Deep Mountain High by Ike and Tina Turner, David's favorite is by Erasure.
And I can't argue.
The Erasure's version might be my favorite version of that song, but I think we've played it
here on the show.
And if not, so many people have that, have that Innocence CD, at least people I grew up
with had the Innocence CD that had that cover of River Deep Mountain High.
So let's go with another band that you connect with the 80s doing a cover of River Deep Mountain
High. This one going out to you, David.
This is Katrina
and the Waves. Before
Walking on Sunshine, they
recorded this. Wasn't a single for them,
but damn, is it good?
And Katrina Liskanich never
sounded better. Here is Katrina
and the Waves and Riverdeep
Mountain High.
When I was
a little girl, I had
ragdoll, the only doll I ever own.
Now I love you just the way I love that rag doll,
but only now my love has grown.
And it gets stronger every day.
And it gets deeper, let me say.
And it gets higher, day by day.
If I love you, my oh my
Liberty, mankind
Yeah, yeah, yeah
If I lost you, would I cry
You know I would, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you were a young boy, did you have a puppy?
It always followed you around
Well, I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
No, I'll never let you down
Because they go running on like a river floor
And it gets deeper, baby, as it grows.
And it gets Sweden, baby, as it goes.
Do I love you, my oh my?
River deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah.
If I lost you, would I cry?
Oh, I would, baby.
Baby, baby, baby!
I love you, baby, like a flower loves the spring.
I love you, baby, like a robin loves to sing.
I love you, baby, like a schoolboy loves his pie.
I love you, baby, river deep mountain high.
Oh, yeah
No one
Oh, yeah
If I love you, my or my
River deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah
If I'd lost you, would I cry?
No, I would, baby, baby, baby.
