Somewhat eating lunch with Travis and more on this episode of the morning stream.
If you got it in your minds that I'm going to be cooperating with you, then you
minds must be up your asses with the rest of your heads.
Hey, Gina, you eat with that mouth?
The morning stream.
Prepare the virgin.
I don't like the sound of that.
Good morning, everyone.
Welcome to TMS.
It's the morning stream for Tuesday, October 8th, 2024.
I'm Scott Johnson.
That's Brian Ibit.
this is CNN and this is CNN that's right everybody get your news here or don't CNN kind of sucks
don't go there your news get your news oh I still have this weird thing I can't you know we talked
yesterday about the new window arrangement crap that's in Sequoia I can't figure out how to turn
that off by default I've looked everywhere and I can't find it it doesn't seem to be a thing I can
control. Oh, you know, it's funny. With using Moom, I don't think I've turned it off, but I
haven't moved a window around with the cursor. Try doing that thing where you take it to the top.
See what happens. Yeah, no, I know. I know it'll definitely, you know, I'll definitely get that.
Yeah, there's a little white, little weirdness with the line thing. Here's a little outline of
where I'm going to put your window like it or not. Yeah. Whether you like this or not, enjoy it.
Bastards. Yeah, no, once you set up Moom, if you don't have to manually move your windows around,
And it's like, oh, okay, just make this key combination.
Boom, my window goes right where I want it.
Now I do control option one, two, three, and four for like my four little sizes that I like.
I think what I did is I've learned, well, what I've learned is I have a habit that I need to break.
And that habit is while I'm doing shows, I will often grab application headers and just move windows around for no reason.
It's like a fidgety thing that I do.
And so that's where I'm running into trouble because I'm fidgeting around like,
all right, let's put this browser back up. It goes,
it's like, no, no, no, don't blow up all huge. So I need to learn to not touch stuff.
You got to not do that. That seems like it's just a recipe for disaster.
Yeah, I don't know why I do it. Just a weird habit.
But I'm doing it so long.
Get yourself a little fidgety thing. How about a nice star lord fidget cube?
Oh, look at that. We don't need one of those in our life.
Tell me what this one does. Can we get a rundown? Okay.
Sure. So six sides, right? Let's start with the most boring side.
here is a little it's just a little groove and you just basically
it's like a little worry groove or whatever they call those you know how you had a
worry stone and you just right like a reverse no the worry stones also had the groove right
didn't they have a little uh indentation yeah and then that's what that is that's a little indentation
got it okay hard to seeing the light uh all right it's boring side uh oh front side is uh star lord's
face and this thing oh it turns okay spins around right then on this side you got a switch okay
on the back side oh that's the fun one we'll save that one for last on this side you have five
clickers and each one has a different level of clickosity like like cherry switches versus brown
switches versus uh oh so like a different resistance to the switch like a different resistance
and a little a different more satisfying like oh yeah like that's a good satisfying one but this one's
just spongy oh interesting and then finally the back you've got a little track ball and
three little
sliders.
Almost like a number slider
from an old-fashioned lock.
Or a new fashion lock
because they have those.
Is that trackball actually
like rotatable?
It's suspended in there
like a ball?
Yeah,
it's suspended in there
and it even clicks when you press it.
What?
All right.
Maybe I do want one of these.
James.
Where'd you get this?
Oh yeah.
And then I guess there was one more.
There's a puck.
It's like an analog
joystick.
Oh, like a 3DS.
Yes.
like flat one yeah that's cool exactly slides around on there um where did i get this uh it's the company
the fidget cube company and whatever the hell their name is um oh i figured it maybe came in one of
your boxes your monthly boxes or something no uh no antsy labs oh a ntsy labs which is
there you go antsy labs of course they would make um fidget cubes yeah because you're antsy
Exactly right.
Boy, imagine being a whole company dedicated to people fiddling around and not being able to hold still.
That's amazing.
Right.
Exactly.
Like, are you perpetuating the problem?
Shouldn't you be maybe a therapy company?
Yeah.
We're in the wrong business.
Solved the problem?
It was a great idea because I'm pretty antsy.
I could do it.
Anyway, imagine the CEO of that company.
Sheesh.
That person.
Freaking, hold still, Mr. Williams or whatever your name is.
Every office has an espresso machine.
That's right.
Every single office.
We got a quick note.
I got a quick note from Seth from Philadelphia, from Philly, where you get them cheese steaks there.
Them cheese steaks with the Nguyen's won it.
Yeah, if the Flyers will play, you may go to a Flyers game.
He's sake, whizwit.
Yeah.
You put the onions on it.
They got the Liberty Bell.
They're doing all right over there.
Sure, sure.
Doing okay in Philly.
Yeah.
He says, hey, Scott and Brian on TMS 2710.
Let's see one would that have been.
That's about five episodes ago.
you guys talked about the four corners where four states connect uh this is a place near where i went to
in school university of delaware where you drive up the road and for a split second between
delaware and pennsylvania you drive through maryland for about a block this is called the wedge
there is one house in the wedge as all i love that that's great so like basically they have
a maryland address yeah and their neighbors all their neighbors either have a delaware or
Pennsylvania address.
Yeah, I love that.
That is awesome.
I wonder if it means anything weird for their mail or anything like that.
Like, what's your zip code in there?
It's got to be funky.
It's got to, right?
Yeah, I would think that there's got to be so many, like, street cleanup or snow removal or something, probably different.
Like, it's got to be such a pain in the buck.
Well, he even says in the message, he says, look at it pretty funny when the road surface changes between states.
That was my experience in Texarkana, where Texas on the one side are Arkansas on the other, and the roads,
were completely different across the street from each other.
One was really well maintained and clean, clearly had a budget.
The other one was all bunged up and had potholes and cracks and all these issues.
And they're literally just parallel to each other.
But that's the line, right?
Like, you have to have a line.
So you only do maintenance up to a certain line.
And I just thought it was the strangest thing.
So I'm guessing this wedge thing is a lot like that where you got like, I mean, four very different looking streets.
For sure.
yeah here's here's one that was fun um driving in ireland uh when we crossed over into northern ireland
everything switched the highway side like we still stayed on that side of the road that didn't change
thank goodness but the all the speed limits changed from kilometers per hour which was on our on our
vehicle to miles per hour oh wow and our car did not have a miles per hour gauge so i had tina tell
me like, you know, she pulled out her phone and did the conversions for like 45, 55 and 65, I think,
miles per hour. Tell me what those are in kilometers. And I just remember those three numbers and
just, you know, when the thing changed, I would just go down to one of those three.
It's another argument for just, just all go one way or the other. And because the dominant thing
in the world is metric, what are we doing? Can we get, I mean, I know it seems cool. Listen, I
understand the American tendency to see, they're going to go buy a new muscle car and they see a number.
And it says up to 400 MPH.
That means something.
It's like, oh, miles per hour.
And when you change the number, it makes you feel weird.
And I get it.
But we need to just swallow that pill and knock it off.
It's dumb.
Yeah.
Although I guess cars are getting smart enough they can switch when they know when they're in the wrong area.
Yeah, the ones with the digital readouts?
Great.
Perfect.
You hit a little better or it just knows.
Like, as soon as you cross into that territory, then it just changes would be.
yeah um yeah i i listen let's let's let's let's let's let's all get to one thing like one one type of
USB plug one type of uh of measurement of uh of weight calculations of money oh man could you
imagine oh one world currency utopia yeah utopia is what i'm looking at man people lose their
shit if we tried to do that it'll never happen people are weird we're a funky bunch
you know eight billion of us
sitting around going, we know what's best. And really none of them know what the hell they're
doing. You can get kind of existential about it. You pull the camera out. You get into space and you
realize how small we are. You're all worked up about stupid stuff. Let's take the metric system. Let's do
it. Exactly. Let's all start speaking Esperanto. Shall we come on? Let's do it. Yeah, Esperanto is
our new international language. I like that. That was what it was intended to be. Esperanto was
developed to become a universal language. I didn't know that. That's crazy. I thought it was just some
wacky idea to I don't know what I thought it was I guess I didn't know anything about it but
I'd heard of it but yeah that's fine I don't even care what we choose uh obviously
english is you know I already know it so let's stick with what we know but but if it has to be
something else I'll learn Mandarin let's go sure sure that just offended somebody real bad I'm not
too I'm not too I'm not too old a dog to learn new tricks I can do that yeah that's fine
I don't maybe be good to learn another language anyway so force me I like
being forced. I'm into it.
Yes. Hey, uh, thank you, Seth from Philadelphia. We appreciate it. I tried something yesterday that
we have to report on it on the show because this is just part of our DNA. Um, so I'll play this
for the heck of it. Much of foodie. So I ate a, um, I ate a McDonald's chicken Big Mac. Have you
heard of this? Hmm. I have not. All right. Uh, let me get a picture here.
Sure. Yeah, let me see it. Is it, uh, my first question is it going to be, is it, do they do
grilled chicken or fried chicken? It is a fried chicken patty. It is a fried chicken patty.
in the form that they usually use
for like their other
well I don't know that's true
their chicken sandwich whatever that
the old chicken yeah the old
mchicken more like that
where it's a lot more processed
I think the new mcchicken looks more like a big slab
to compete with like Popeyes
and everybody they had to make a decent chicken
filet but this looks more bumpy
as opposed to a perfectly
round flat cylinder puck
yeah but in this case they went ahead
with the much more uniform puck
and there I just sent you a picture.
So that thing looks like it might be a bad idea.
If only it really looked like that when you received it.
Oh, yeah, it's not even close to this.
It was probably, I don't know, shrink.
It had definitely some shrinkflation going on as far as size, all that.
But you know what?
Not bad.
Yeah, you know, if you're going to have a Big Mac,
that's a much better Big Mac to have.
Yeah, sure.
We split it, Kim and I, and right down the middle.
It was good.
And I just was a little surprised.
that McDonald's pulled off something that was decent that was also weird.
It's a weird idea to do this, but I liked it.
No complaints.
I would do it again.
I'm looking forward today to a, we don't have any leftovers today, so I'm going to do a,
one of those Jimmy John's unwitches, which is the lettuce wrap business.
Oh, yeah.
I like those.
A turkey tom unwitch.
It's on the docket for today.
Sure.
Do you go all in on like, like, I want the peppers.
I want the salt and vinegar.
I want the oil in a reason.
I don't add mayonnaise or ketchup, or I'm not ketchup, mustard.
No, I'm sorry, I do add mustard, not mayonnaise,
and I do add the peppers, even though I know that because it's,
they're pickled in a sugar solution.
Oh, are they?
I didn't know that.
Yeah, it's a sweet, it's definitely a sweet, Brian,
and I'm pretty sure it's just sugar-based,
but I still like those peppers, so I have to have them add those.
I like it all.
When I go to a sandwich place of any kind, and they say, well, what do you want on it?
I'm like everything you have.
All of it.
I don't care what kind.
I want all the extra toppings you offer.
Exactly.
I go full, what was this name on the show?
Oh, my gosh.
Why can't I remember the guy's name?
Full Ron Burgundy.
No, not Ron Swanson.
Swanson.
Jeez.
Thank you for the run.
The run was the key.
Ron Burgundy.
On Burgundy.
Anyway, but I'll go in there and just say just late.
Yes.
Give me hot things.
Give me cold things.
Give me wet things.
I don't care.
Put it all on there.
I love it.
Wet things, dry things, hot things, cold things.
Put them on my sandwich.
Yeah.
I don't even care if it makes the bread soggy.
And if it's a good place, they don't make the bread soggy anyway.
They know what to do.
No.
Yeah.
That's my only problem with Jersey Mikes is there.
I love their oil and vinegar stuff that's part of Mike's way.
But if you are,
not eating that in the store, you are really running the risk of coming home to a soggy sandwich.
Yeah, and a very oily sandwich.
And you're going to have that, and that stuff's going to go through your bag and into your seat.
And maybe if you have...
Through your body.
Yeah, through your body.
It's going to come right out of your bunghole, Brian.
That's right.
Exactly, yes.
Gross.
Yeah, don't want it.
Don't want it.
Anyway, try the chicken Big Mac, everybody.
You'll be surprised.
Yeah, sounds good.
Frost M.N. wrote in.
He's always writing in.
It says, listening to TMS, talk about weird food.
and we're doing it again.
Unless I'm misunderstanding the dogarito thing,
I've definitely done that before
when I wanted to eat a hot dog
but didn't have any buns.
Okay, here's the key,
and I realize this is an old topic,
but if you're going to make a good dog Rito,
you must have flour tortillas.
That is part of this.
You must have a hot dog,
either Polish, beef doesn't matter,
but you got to have a hot dog,
preferably a larger one,
not some crappy one.
And you must have pickled things in it.
and that can be just straight pickles.
But if you've got them, pickled mushrooms, pickled peppers, pickled anything.
Pickled stuff is key.
Kim-chee counts as pickled stuff, right?
100% kimchi works.
Yeah, in fact, preferable if you have it.
I'd love a kimchi dog rita.
And that's honestly almost all you need.
Now, if you've got a little cheese and you want to melt it in there,
you want to do a few other things, that's totally fine.
But those are your basic ingredients.
So it isn't just that I'm out of buns.
It's that you're embracing something other than a bun.
Right. And then that thing you embrace is a freaking tortilla.
Don't get a confused, Frost M.N.
I wonder if you could wrap all the stuff in it, right?
Put the dog, put all the stuff you're putting in it, wrap that tortilla in a burrito roll.
Yeah.
And then a little tiny sprits of Pam and put in the air fryer and make it a crispy dogrito.
I'll bet you. Money that is not only possible, but that probably is the preferable way to eat it.
And that's the thing, is a doggorito does not require microwave or whatever shitty way I've cooked them.
You absolutely should use an air fryer if it works.
Maybe I'll try that today.
I've got hot dogs.
I have tortillas.
Maybe I'll try that.
Make a video.
Everything's content.
Oh, I didn't think of that.
You're right.
Everything is content.
Everything is content.
Just don't boil it.
Boiling a dogrito's bad.
I almost did film a thing that I didn't, but I should have.
It's kind of stupid, though.
So Kim bought air freshener.
and they are interchangeable scents.
So it's the thing plugged into the wall,
but you can put in their various scents,
very normal thing.
Yeah, yeah.
She thought, hey, it's fall.
Let's get some, like, fall smells.
And so, and to me, that means cinnamon, pumpkin spice, that kind of thing.
But here's the problem.
When you have one in a bathroom that's designed to be sort of near a toilet
and kind of part of the keep that room from reeking it up, you know?
Yeah.
It turns out when things smell like cake and baked goods, it's bad.
It's not good.
It's bad.
It's a bad combo with the other scents in a bathroom.
Yeah.
You need citrusy or minty or some kind of like.
You need a counter and not an amplifier.
Yeah.
No sweet smells of any kind.
Don't do that.
Because then you're in there and you feel like, I feel like you're inside a twinkie with a little bit of pee, a hint of pee.
Anyway, we got rid of them.
They're gone.
Peat twinkies, yeah, sure.
P-Twinky, Twinkie P-Twinkeys.
Until Talley can get this working.
Yeah.
I wanted to start working on a way that I could just say something that instantly gets loaded in as a title.
P-Twinkies.
This is a future of AI, I suppose.
Who knows?
Yeah, there we go.
All right, Brian, you were going to tell us about your board game time.
Oh, it was, yeah.
So many board games, Ducey brought a ton of board games.
brought, um, I'm so
thankful that Amy brought this massive
box with Return to Dark Castle
and I feel so bad
that in like round five
or six or whatever of the game we were playing
it was Hermie and Ducey
and, uh, I wiped the raid.
Oh shit. Like basically
I got two, one too many
corruptions on my character
because the, uh, the enemy
dogs, the wolves I was fighting, decided
to, uh, to roll a
crit or, you know, do it the equivalent
of rolling a crit
and I just
it was a
hole that from which
I could not dig myself out
that's unfortunate
did you guys
I meant that we spent
way more time setting up the game
and taking apart the game
than actually playing the game
so he didn't do like a second run or anything
you were like oh that's it
no because it was getting late
and we were doing
that was movie night
wasn't I think it was movie night
and we had to watch
return to
return to
to Oz.
My God.
Sounds like torture.
It really was.
I mean, it was, there's no better way to watch a movie like that than with a whole room full of people.
Oh, no way.
Yeah.
Like, if you're going to take something bad, that's why film sack works sometimes.
Those are things.
We're never going to see a, what was it called, Orion, or what was the one we just saw?
Something Orion or, uh, um, Omega Doom.
Omega Doom.
We're never watching that by yourself in a room someplace unless it's for a cause like that, right?
And that includes big party rooms.
that that would be an amazing watch that's right we had the tour to get to that that's what that's what
the cutoff was but gotcha um so we wouldn't have had time for uh for another another round if we
wanted to um we also played captain sonar which i think i remember i think somebody might have
played that at um in Vegas i remember there might have been a table that had had that going on it
but it's you basically got two submarines with four people on each side and the captain is
calling out moving, moving. Oh, you know where we
played it? We played it in... This is Nurtacular
2017. And Nurtacular. Yes.
I played this with Eric and a bunch
of people. I remember this game. I think me
even. I think I was up there because we played it on
the stage. Even though it was
just because the other tables were full
of people playing other games. But
I want to say we were up on the
Nurtacular stage because that's where we had the
long table that we needed for this. Yep. This
was later in the day, final day.
And I remember this entire... Yep, I totally... I'm looking
at it now. This is 100% of game we played.
It was fun.
It was like FTL co-op style thing, right?
Yes, exactly.
Yeah.
Some people are like, push the whatever button and the other, but you couldn't, but only
your engineer could do it or whatever the deal was.
Right, exactly.
It's like, do we have our weapons online?
No, you need to go right two times or east two times to get weapons online.
Why can't because there's an island there?
Yeah, yeah, it is definitely, it's like, what's the game that we had on our phones for
everybody was all into for a bit?
where you would all sit around in a room
and you would have to hurry
It's talking and nobody explodes
It's like that but it was a captain's
Oh no that's right
That's right we all had a button
And we had like buttons and stuff
And it was like who's got the pink flashing button
Yeah it was all stupid words like
Someone needs to turn on the flange
Dot monkey parts
Space team
Space team that was such a cool game
That was so fun
Still a thing probably still a thing
Probably still a thing
Probably still a thing
I remember one of my favorite things about it is it kind of looked like ass and I kind of appreciated it really did it was it didn't need a good interface just need to be janky but you need to have buttons you need to have switches you need to have knobs and it was like it was basically like all the tasks you have to do in among us without the murder and sabotage it's just basically everybody yelling who's got the leaves get the leaves out there was a there was a version of this or not a version of it but there was something like this in VR set in Star Trek
Trek bridge commander i think maybe anyway so it was like and i think you can play it out of
the r now which you know because there was kind of a limited audience at the time and this is a few
years ago but basically you're the captain of the ship all star it's star trek license so everything
star trekky and it's the same idea you as the captain have to shout out these commands
and the other VR participants have you know consoles in front of them so if you're the geordy laforge
of the group you're like you've got to hit the right stuff the captain tells you to hit in the right
order. I can't remember the name of it. I don't, maybe not have been Bridge Commander,
but something like that. Very cool game if you ever see it on sale somewhere. It's very
fun. Yeah. I think you can play it online now. It's the whole,
the whole thing got DVR. That sounds like it got DVR'd. It got right by
TiVo, my TiVo did something like that. Yeah. Boop boop. Anyway,
uh, well, there you go. That sounds like fun. Um,
board games. They rule. They're great. They totally, they totally do rule. Have you played,
you have a chance to play that one that Tolbert sent us yet because I have not yet.
No, not yet.
It's sitting on our table upstairs on the dining room table.
And I've also got one that they're friends at Dice Theory.
Oh my gosh, I'm not remembering her name.
Why can't I remember her name?
Dice Theory.
In Minnesota.
It's a 20 strong, 20 team strong, 20 strong team, something like that.
Something like that.
I remember this.
And it's a dice game, a solo playing dice game.
Oh, gosh.
God, yeah, my gold mine we also played.
That was a blast, Amy.
That's one you would love.
Maybe you've played it.
You're a dwarf going into a gold mine, and there's a dragon at one end,
and you're drawing cards to determine whether you get gold or you go further into the mine.
We played it in Vegas with Ducey.
Was that the same game?
Was it Red Fraggle's copy?
It might have been.
I played that in Vegas.
That was fun.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was real good.
Yeah, my gold.
mine gold mine that was fun because there was like a there was a simplicity to that that also
went deep it's kind of hard to explain but I love a game that's like so obvious how to play it on
the face of it it's like oh this is what we do but then the complexity comes from the playing of it
that's a good game it's really yes yes exactly chip theory games the one you're thinking of is
uh 20 just 20 strong it's called 20 strong that's it yep uh let's see oh they're making a
Digital version of that?
I got to play the physical version first.
Yeah, we do.
Well, all right then.
Fun stuff.
Take those recommendations to heart.
Next time you play games with your friends,
well, you'll know what to do.
You'll know.
You'll know.
It's time for the news.
I don't watch the news.
It's the news, and it's brought to you by.
Kimchi fried rice.
Okay, so this is something Kim made,
and Carter makes it here sometimes, too,
but when you get to the bottom of a kimchi jar,
there's like a liquidy you know liquid kimchi goo at the bottom right the residue right the liquid sure sure
and most people would be like I'm throwing that out not so fast you take it and you mix it with a bunch of
rice and you fry it fried rice style amazing it's so good that sounds really good yeah and you got
little bits in there too because you know it's not all just liquid it's there's little bits of
kimchi in it fan absorbs all that flavor oh it's so good dude now
I'm a sucker where if you give me a bowl of sitting kimchi water, I will dip bread in that
and eat it. It's not a problem. Sure. It's like, you know, leftover ramen or fah or
whatever, right? Like, once you've eaten all the stuff out of it, I don't care. Give me something
that can either sup it up or a spoon or a straw. Just give me something because I want all the
rest of this. Yeah, absolutely. I did notice something weird. We went to the Asian market,
Kim and I the other day. And awesome big place.
It's not the H-Mart, but another one downtown, and closer to where, well, it's not really downtown, but it's more in KT. D.A.'s direction. Anyway, we're in there walking around, and I swear to you, they have, the Asian markets have embraced the muck-bang online trend.
Oh, no.
So they literally have a whole, like, you know, there's a whole ramen area with tons, like tons of foreign ramen possibilities.
Sure, sure.
But one of them of these gigantic boxes.
And on the front, there's a big, like, it looks like a YouTube play button.
Okay.
And it says, uh, huge ramen something, the English part, it's like crazy translation.
With a huge ramen something for muckbang uses.
Guaranteed noisiest ramen you will ever eat.
Yeah, dude.
It is crazy.
There's so much of it, too.
I was like, wow, they're really going all in on this, you know?
No.
No.
I know.
It's one of my least favorite trends, but there people are into it.
So, whatever.
Hmart has an entire aisle for ramen.
Yeah, I-Corps.
There's so much ramen.
Oh, my gosh.
So much ramen.
All right, let's get to the news.
Portland geese developing malformation from eating too many carbs.
You know, they tell you not to give bread to the geese and ducks and stuff.
Well, here you go.
Yeah, it's the big problem.
It's the easiest thing to give them.
Like, ooh, this bread's just on the cusp of being bad.
Let's give it to geese.
Yeah.
My mom used to do that.
She would keep loaves that looked like they were going south.
And she'd say, take these down to the lake, and we would.
That's what we did in the 80s, you know?
Now we know a little bit better, hopefully.
It's like we don't know what else, like, what else do we give the geese that we're sure is not bad for them?
Like, can we give them lunch meat?
Do we give them red huts, tart and tinies?
What kinds of things do geese like?
Isn't it?
Frozen peas, Carter, is that it?
That's what Claire is saying, peas.
Oh, is she saying peas?
Yeah, frozen peas for ducks and geese, apparently.
is a thing. Is that right? You told me that. Yeah. Carter told me this once. I don't know how she knew it,
but she knew it. She knows things. You know things. Yeah. So anyway, in Portland, that is to say
Portland, Oregon, they got a problem. The Parks Department is putting out an alert about malformation.
They're finding in some of the geese there, deformed wings or threatening the life of geese and other
waterfowl. Canada geese often fly south for the winter, but its deformity or this deformity called
angel wing. I don't like
that.
Angel wing. It makes it sound nice, but it's not.
That's why I don't like it.
Every time a bell rings.
A geese gets
angel wings. A goose gets too fat
and his wings won't work.
I hate that girl.
That ruins the entire
movie for me. Really? Ruined it's a wonderful
life, that little girl who's like,
every time of bell rings.
It's just something about how she says it.
I'll still watch it.
But when I get to that part,
I kind of have to plug my ears.
I freaking hate.
Mary,
Mary,
what we want the moon?
I'll throw a lasso up and get the moon for you.
See,
all that stuff I love.
I love.
All the stereotypes around that movie,
I love it,
love it, love it.
But when that girl talks
and says the angels get their wings,
I just about want to throw that VHS copy out in the snow.
Anyway,
it says here a pair of Canadian geese
in Deering Oaks Park.
have what's known as the angel wing syndrome,
where the last joint of the wing is twisted,
causing the feathers to point away from the body.
Wildlife experts say this condition is permanent,
yet often preventable, deformity,
which makes the geese incapable of migrating.
So that's the worst part is that they can't go do laps or something
and lose weight and have it go away.
It's so weird that it's not a gaining weight in the stomach issue,
it's this joint, this last joint of the wing.
It's like the geese are going, hold on, hold on.
There's a piece of some bread down here.
Yeah, they do it long enough.
Stay away, Carl.
It says...
The people listening can't see it.
I'm putting my hand up like I'm pushing somebody else away from taking my bread.
Yeah, there you go.
There's a visual for you.
It says it makes it so they just straight up can't fly again.
So that's bad.
Look, I don't like geese.
They're dicks.
Okay.
But I don't want them malformed and not, like, able to fly and be normal and stuff.
I would feel bad about that.
No, totally.
I wouldn't want that.
I don't want to hurt the geese.
Fine.
Peas, it is.
Or as many people suggest, they're fine.
They'll get food.
We need to feed them.
We're just basically making them dependent on us.
And we shouldn't be doing that.
Let me, let them find their own food.
I found out yesterday that the, the geese that attack you.
Because it was, there was a thing I was watching about these Chinese geese that technically
Mendoza is a member of.
he's like one of those he's not around anymore i don't know where minnesota ended up probably died
but uh they the best defense against attacking goose isn't to face it off and swing at it or scare it
or run from it the best way to fend it off is to hold still and let it basically beak your arms
and stuff because it's not going to hurt you it's just going to be kind of a pinch no big deal
it's just going to be annoying yeah it's not going to be painful yeah so just let it have its moment
and it will walk away on its own.
That's what this thing said.
Just walk away, men doza?
Just walk away.
Walk away.
We just want the butt.
No, what do they want?
We just want the grass.
Yeah, we just want the bread.
Walk away.
We just want the fros of bees.
That's amazing.
Well, anyway, careful out there, Portland.
You got a geese, you got a goose thing going on.
Yeah.
More food.
Canned food identified as cause of explosion that injured six at a state fair.
Oh, man.
trying to deep fry cans of food
and you got to take it out of the cans
that's right nobody died thank goodness
but here's what happened an explosion the danger
to six people at the Kansas State Fair was caused
by a canned food item that got too hot
when stored near a food warmer
investigator said on Wednesday
it's called a cunering
it's got oh my gosh my aunt got
cunered at the
Kansas State Fair
she got libid
oh man
she got jolly green giant
she got Del Monte
Oh, Del Monteed, or Kroger branded.
Anyway, it says the explosion happened Tuesday night at a concession trailer called the Fryshack.
The Fryshack.
It's probably good.
Nothing good happens at the Fryshack, and by that I mean everything is good.
Everything is good and bad at the same time.
Yes.
Authority said Tuesday two people were hospitalized after the explosion and fire.
Both were treated for cuts and were discharged later Tuesday.
day. Four others reported injuries
but did not seek medical treatment. They were
cocky bastards. They got hurt
and they walked away going, I ain't going there.
Forget it. I'll pull
this metal lid out of my arm on my own.
Thank you very much. That's right. They just want
my $75 co-pay.
Billionaire bootlicker. I don't need
your help.
Callback.
It is a callback.
For those listening carefully,
you might know.
Yes. Now people can search
on Search TMS for billionaire
liquor in here two episodes. Yeah, you'll know all about it. Uh, it says here, let's see,
the cause of the fire was determined by investigators with the Kansas City Fire Marshal's
office and the Hutchinson Fire Department. The 10-day State Fair draws about 350,000 people
every year, and it concludes on Sunday. So be careful out there of the exploding cans,
everybody. Yeah, watch out for the Fryshack. Don't stand too close to the fry shack. Yeah,
yeah, I wouldn't go near there. Also, what do you have in a can near a Fryshack? What's the point?
What's in a can? Oh, I'm sure there's a lot of stuff that comes in a can that they deep
I like, um, could be, could be waffle batter or like, you know, uh, their batter might come in a can.
Yeah.
Uh, uh, uh, beans.
Frozen peas.
Beans.
Beans.
Beans.
I don't know.
Beans.
I like that.
Beans.
Nacho cheese.
Where do you stand on like, uh, pickled everything?
Are you a pickled guy?
I pickle everything.
Okay.
Absolutely.
Pickle.
When I go to Qdob, I know you don't have cute.
kudob out there but it's basically a chipotle where you don't have to pay extra for every
topping yeah um at kudoba i'm like pickled onions yep pickled uh corn uh salsa yep pickled uh
jalapinos yep and uh boom boom boom yeah i that actually sounds great do we don't have one
we still don't have one of them do we here we don't have a kudob it's so weird it is weird what's weird
is you guys have xaxbies yeah um but we're looking at the map and it's like Utah and then
nothing until you get east of the Mississippi.
Oh, we just got one.
That's too far.
I'll do it on my way to Vegas, but it's in St. George, just open.
Oh, there you go.
The cleanest Zaxby's, right now, the cleanest Zaxpies of the mall.
Oh, yeah, you're going to love it.
You're going to like the way you look.
Oh, no, we don't have them in Colorado.
We had one in Georgia, and it was great.
Let's see here.
Kudoba, there it is.
Yeah, I might have to stop by there next time I'm through.
Yeah, because I like, I like, I like.
Oh, the Kudoba is the new thing you got.
I see what you're saying.
Yeah, yeah, no, not Zach.
Zaxby's, we got a bunch of those.
There's a handful of those around the town.
But Kudoba, they just opened in St. George.
Anyway, the point of that was, what was my point there?
I had a point.
Pickled everything.
Oh, pickled everything.
Do you like a pickled mushroom?
Do you like that?
I love a pickled mushroom.
That's the only way to do it on pizza because fresh mushrooms dry out too quickly on pizza.
So you've got to use pickled ones.
Yeah, dude.
Or sauteed ones, but yeah.
Yep, totally fine with pickled mushrooms.
We bought some weird looking, we bought.
We bought some weird-looking mushrooms at the Asian market that looked like they were found on a no-man sky planet.
Oh, really? Nice.
All furry and red and...
Right next to the hydrogen crystals and the sodium plants.
Yeah, which somehow magically appear on every planet.
Who knew?
Yeah, that's a crazy...
It's the stuff, the roots alone at this Asian market, they look like they're from...
They don't look earth-earthin.
They look...
Yeah.
Too fantastic.
and two alien. Yes, right. It's very, very
weird, but I love it. We're going to try
those. Is there anything pickled you don't like?
What's your stance on pickled eggs?
Oh, that may
be the only one. That's usually the line for people.
If it's half of one and it's in like
a specialty ramen of some kind or something
where a pickled egg is
used for, you know,
implicitly it's meant to be pickled in that
particular concoction. I think I'm okay with that.
I thought that's just soft-boiled.
Usually yes, but I've had, I've had,
I've had some romans where the pickled egg is like key to it.
It's more of a sour thing.
But that's a, I don't like them on, like when you go into a place where they have a jar of these things sitting there with like, it looks like eyeballs in there.
From aldehyde freaking eyeball selection.
No, thanks.
I don't want that.
Yeah.
And you look at these gross bars, these gross dive bars and they've got this jar behind the bartender of, of pickled eggs.
And it just, what is that, that color of the liquid that they're.
floating it. I don't even know what color that is.
But yeah, and TV's
Travis says, pig's feet, which
I guess I should, the caveat of the pickle thing is
would you eat it if it's not pickled and do you like
the pickled version? Like eggs, you've got no problem with, obviously.
No, that's important what you just said. That has to be
an important distinction. Yeah. Because I wouldn't eat
non-pickled pigs feet.
No, why would you eat a raw
freaking pig's foot? Forget it. Right. Or even
cooked. I don't know. I don't know. That's a
I throw away. I'm not eating that.
Exactly. It's the part of the pig
that you're not supposed to eat. What do
vegans and vegetarians,
they have lots of options. Obviously, you can pickle
vegetables and all that, but do they have any
like, can you pickle tofu?
Is tofu inherently pickled? Like, I don't know what tofu
actually. I bought some tofu from the market.
We're going to try that later too.
I don't ever like tofu
unless it's so seasoned
and ridiculously flavored
that, so I need to be convinced
and apparently this little block we bought is supposed
to be a good example of...
Oh, good.
That's, you know, I don't have to worry
about it being over...
You've had tofu.
Oh, I've had it.
I just don't usually like it.
I don't like the consistency of it.
But this...
You've never had this brand, though, that you got this...
It's some Korean flavory unit deal.
So, we'll see.
They had some sauce there with the word tube in it,
and I didn't trust it.
I saw the photo, yeah, on threads.
It was probably like Tube A or some other name,
but it looked like Tube to me.
Tooby TV is what it is.
Yeah, it's too.
You have commercials, but it tastes okay.
Let's see here.
A pickled,
oh yeah, so be careful, I guess, with hot cans of food is the point.
Yeah, yeah.
This is interesting.
If you live in Detroit, we have some Detroit listeners.
We hear from them occasionally.
A giant sequoia forest will be planted in an old Detroit neighborhood to revitalize the area.
Oh, that's kind of cool.
Yeah.
They say giant.
Well, let's see what this means.
giant sequooria forest could be growing in the Detroit neighborhood soon. Arboretum Detroit,
which owns them and manages a system of parks in the Poltown East neighborhood. I don't
know where any of this is. I don't either. I just know in Barbarian, there was those bad neighborhood.
That's all I know.
Bub, bu, bu, bu, bu. Bub, bu. Want to see the Sequoias. Take me to the sequoias.
Mba. Buh. Oh, that. Worst mom in the history of moms.
If you haven't seen it, you won't know what we're talking about.
And you have it.
Yeah, it's not a spoiler.
Not a spoiler.
Not at all.
Oh, I got a question for you.
Sure.
You and I both adhere roughly to the two-week thing that what's the thing?
Sure.
Yes.
It depends on the spoiler.
Like, you know, something might be more than two weeks old.
And if it's like a, if it's a very important spoiler to the film, I'm still not going to spoil it even after the two weeks.
Yeah, you're going to try, especially around people you, you, you, you're going to try.
give a shit about you're going to try to you know keep them from being spoiled i did a video a
world of warcraft focused video not long ago a few days ago that was about a death that happened
in world of warcraft legion in 2015 legion okay yeah it's a long time ago 2015 yeah and i got
chewed out on youtube hardcore for not spoiler warning this thing by a lot of people or by one very
boisterous person. One person and then a handful of very supportive boisterous people. They're like,
yeah, you shouldn't. I knew about it, but I wouldn't want it. I'm like, I just feel like a decade is
enough. I have to be able to talk about shit at some point. I don't know. I guess I could have said
spoilers, I guess. By the way, everybody, the cake is a lie. Just so you know. Yeah. Yeah. Guess who
Darth Vader is like how long do you need
how long do you like this guy was
acting like he was about to find
I was finally going to experience it
after 10 years of not being able to
it doesn't make sense no
I finally got a computer
that'll run World of Warcraft and I was
looking forward to doing Legion
yeah I don't know that's
it's really done for a game
for a game especially like I'm not
going to tell if somebody
hasn't seen the six cents at this point
I'm not going to reveal the big
Spoiler to them.
You know, they're saying,
ooh, finally going to watch $0.6 cents.
I'm not going to, all of a sudden go,
by the way, brer, bra, bra, bra, blah,
like, yeah, it's not.
No, you're not going to do that.
It's like when I walked,
when I walked into the office,
when I used to work at this office
and that guy who owes me $89,000,
I walked in there the night after
everybody picked up the midnight launch
of the new Harry Potter book.
And as soon as I walked in there,
he goes, Dumbledore's dead,
and then walked away.
It's a dick.
It was such a dick move, right?
That is such a,
like crop dusting, uh, disappointment.
He's just, like, leaving the fart, the stinkiest fart that is going to hang in the air
forever and, and, like, right in your face, too, just farting like inches from your face.
Yeah.
And I remember being so angry at him.
I'm not talking about that.
We're talking about a 10 year old game thing that if he looked at the title of the video,
we'd have gone, oh, maybe I shouldn't watch that.
At some point, it's on people to take care of it.
You just said, Legion, we're going to watch the Legion video or something.
Yeah, yeah, and we watched it.
It's not a big deal.
So I just, I just, I just,
want people to take care of their own shit. That's all.
All right, quit coming to me with your problems.
If there's something you care about,
watch it. Just watch it. Don't wait 10 years.
Don't wait, don't wait five years.
Yeah.
You know? Yeah. Also, his name was Marvin Monroe.
So my joke, or that's what he went under on YouTube.
Monroe. So I made a joke.
Oh, the psychiatrist from The Simpsons.
Yeah, which I made a joke about him.
I'm like, under his logic,
he just spoiled that there was a character on the Simpsons
named Marvin Monroe from season one and two.
You know what I mean?
Like, at what point do you draw your freaking line?
Right, right.
Guy who's all mad at me.
Anyway.
Nah.
Moving on.
Let's talk about this real quick.
Oh, the sequoias.
So this is happening.
A nonprofit already planted about 20 of these fast-growing carbon-eating trees around the neighborhood.
We want a whole park.
He says, there are 100 separate sequoia seedling planted in the organization's nursery.
The seedlings planted about 10 inches apart in two rows and watched over by
one of the older sequoias.
The idea being, you take these dilapidated in need of some gentrification parts of the country
and you fill it, instead of trying to fill it with condos, you fill it with some natural
shit.
Some parks.
I love it.
Yeah.
I think that's great.
I do too.
I mean, now's the time.
Yeah, go to Detroit.
You know, we're looking at 100 years before these things look like, you know, like the
sequoias that they're going to grow into.
but hopefully the harsh weather of Detroit is fine with the
or the, sorry, hopefully the seedlings are fine with the harsh weather of Detroit.
What do you think is the most common tree you see in Colorado if you had to pick?
Oh, um, ooh, that I see.
So like in the mountains, uh, aspen and pine are like all over the damn place.
Same, yeah.
But pine, aspens definitely not so much down here, some, but not so much.
I think I see
Elm probably
Oh interesting
Okay
What's the
We have one with a boar that
Like I think of it because of the
The bug that is
Runs rampant through them ash
Ash trees
Oh ash yeah
A lot of ash trees
So I think pine ash
We have the same climate really
So probably the same kind of trees
But we see we have a lot of oak as well
A lot of big oak trees here
Yeah
I don't know if I'd recognize a birch
if I saw it.
I don't know if I'd recognize a birch either.
What do the leaves look like on a birch?
I don't know.
What is it?
There's a name for this.
People that know trees.
Oh, yeah.
Birch, yeah, for sure.
Looking at birch leaves.
Is it arborist?
Is that what a tree expert is?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And they love Arbor Day?
Celebrate every year.
They celebrate every year.
It's my day.
I'm taking the day off.
Yeah.
Arbor Day.
So it is an arborist.
Look at me with the memory of the decent.
Decent.
Well, it was in this, this arboretum.
Was in the.
Oh, it was in the.
thing. That's probably why I thought of it, yeah.
You had it in the back of your head and it.
Yep. I also thought of blame, or the Duran Duran Rio song because of Rio de Janeiro is in there as well.
Oh, no, that's the wrong article. It's the one down here.
Spoiler. Now I don't know. I know what's coming in the next story, Scott.
Well, don't worry because I'm going to hold it for tomorrow anyway. Ha, ha.
Oh, good. Okay.
Hey, everybody. What do you feel about a little Travis? He's coming up after the break.
We're going to talk to Travis. Get a little bit of a.
trivia thrown at us. I don't know what the leaderboards are. I think Brian's leading currently
still. I think just by one or two. I don't know. You've got, you've got a couple episodes we can
catch up and make a big grand finale tie game going into December. If we really work hard at this.
I'm excited. I mean, I ate a chicken Big Mac to help my brain be ready for this. Is that brain food?
Yeah. The McDonald's chicken. Oh, yeah. I'm sure it'll kill me, but.
I think it's made from chicken brains. So maybe. Maybe it's a good.
point. Tendons and
100%
this is the nuggett stuff. Chicken knuckles.
That is the thing I noticed when I ate it is like
I feel like I'm eating a flat
planer version of a
nugget. So I'm sure that's what that meat is.
It's from all that pink
extra stuff. Anyway, we'll
do that after this song that you'll now
play. Play it. Yeah.
This song made me listen
to the entire album while I was lifting
yesterday like when I was driving for lift.
while I was lifting bro.
I do that on Tuesday and Thursday and Saturday mornings.
Do my lifting bro.
No, I was in the car playing this and here's how I know it's good.
A brand new album, right, that just came out October 4th, yet one of my passengers,
a lady sat in the back seat and kind of absent-mindedly tried to hum along with it,
even though it was, I'm sure, the first time she'd ever heard the song.
Oh, weird.
She was, I'm never, maybe, you know.
All right.
Maybe she was the artist.
You never know.
Maybe she was...
Once you get the first verse and chorus,
you can pretty much figure out what's going on.
All right,
this is a band called Casual Mail.
This is their self-titled debut album,
which,
because it's self-titled means it's called Casual Mail.
You see how that works.
Just came out last Friday.
And there's actually a...
If you're in Brooklyn,
good luck getting sleep.
But there's also a record release show
at Union Pool in Brooklyn tomorrow night,
so you can go watch them.
These guys are great.
These guys have a very Beck, vampire weekend-y rock meets a little bit of electronic keyboardy kind of sound.
I am so in on this whole album.
Is it male like dude or mail like post office?
Okay.
Mail is in dude like a department in a Sears, the casual mail department.
Excellent.
I love that place.
I'll go there all the time.
Yeah, this is great.
Casual mail.
Oh, what do they?
Let's see.
They were recorded in the home studio of the main guy, Tim Lappin, with contributions from friends like Kirk Schoner, who played with Chet Faker and Tegan and Sarah, drummer Dave Burnett, and additional vocals from Emily Jackson.
Anyway, this is great stuff.
The song is called Help Me. Here is Casual Mail.
Get on my head
Drive me crazy
Would if the moment
Pass me by
Was I misguided
With the peace of my heart
That I'm still hiding
Help me please
I'm losing my grip
Help me please
I'm struggling
Help me please I'm right on the edge
Something bigger
Help me please I'm losing my grip
Help me please it's struggling
Help me to please I'm pushing against
Something bigger
How could I know that
My soul needs saving
Is being a good man
Still enough
For my phone
family
nearly it cuts
no wind
in sight
and was in the water
and the sharks
are coming down
to witness
the slaughter
help me
please I'm losing my grip
help me please
I'm struggling
help me please
I'm right on the edge
of something bigger
help me please I'm losing
my grip. Help me please. I'm struggling. Help me please. I'm pushing a kiss.
Something bigger.
I'm down the moon
I'm down the moon
I'm down the world
Locked out cold and calcified
Can't contain my laughter
tear down every five and down
There's something bigger
Help me please I'm losing my grill
Help me, please, I'm struggling
Help me, please, I'm right on the edge
Something bigger
Help me, please, I'm losing my breath
Help me, please, I'm struggling
Help me, please, I'm pushing our kids
Something bigger
Something bigger
By 8.30 tomorrow night, every one of those 8 million sons of bitches are going to believe Jack Terry's story.
I promise you that.
Poor Peter Joseph, head for the hills.
And we're back, everybody.
Tell me who that was one more time, please.
Yeah, that's a band called Casual Mail.
Their brand new album just came out this last Friday.
It is awesome.
was one of the songs from it.
Guess what?
You get a lot more
when you listen to the whole album.
That song was called Help Me.
The album is called
Casual Mail from the band, Casual Mail.
Nice.
Casual Mail.
That's right.
I'm looking for a pair of long, Johns.
Take me to the Casual Mail department.
I don't know why that would be in.
Oh, hey, another casual mail has joined
us. Check this out.
This is Travis, and you'll do well to listen
carefully to what he has to say.
What do you think a casual male does?
You know, like a...
answer's trivia question.
Yeah. The answer's trivia. There you go.
Oh, well, then, all right, then. No one perfect, more perfecter than you to be doing that.
Welcome to the program, TV's Travis. He comes on the show once a month and talks about some trivia.
It tries to get us to, you know, beat each other at a game that we're not aware of.
We do this a lot to other people, but now we get to do it to each other.
And you're the impetus for that. I'm so glad. Welcome back, man. How was your month?
It's been good. I'm trying to do his little work.
as possible and work is making that difficult.
Curses, they keep giving me work
at work. Yeah, stupid work. Just keep paying me to do nothing.
It's better. Better for everyone. You want to be a casual
male at work. That's right. Exactly. Exactly.
Yeah, so, but outside of that,
no, it's been great. You know, I started playing
Alan Wake 2 a year late. Yeah, me too. I've also got it.
I keep hearing, I need to, here's the problem.
Somebody, Shatterproof in our community bought me a copy of
Silent Hill 2, the remake that's coming out like tomorrow.
I'm so sick.
It's the only way I'll play it.
And now that he's done it, I have to, and I'm going to stream it.
And I'm terrified.
Those games, in particular, I've played a lot of scary games for bad reasons, whatever.
But those Silent Hill games, what am I doing?
Why am I allowing this to happen?
They're terrifying.
They're horrible.
They're uncomfortable.
I'm just looking for more expletives that involve.
David Gilmore for some reason. Good. Well, I'm bringing it to you, dude. You want some,
you want some shit potatoes. I've got buckets of shit potatoes ready to launch. Anyway,
well, let's get to it. We got some trivia to do. And Travis, you got the trivia to give us.
So let's hear it. What do we got? Yeah, so we're going to do our name that thing trivia.
Right now, Brian is in the lead, five to three over Scott. Damn. So you are still well within
striking distance. All right. You finish out the year with a win, Scott. You totally can do it.
I'm going to try.
And this month, we are doing all actors except for the song.
Oh, really?
Okay.
I will tell you right now that there is a theme amongst the actors, but the song doesn't fit it.
I just wanted to use this song.
Okay, sure.
Because it's one of my favorite kind of Halloween era-esque songs.
Okay.
So we'll start with round one, which is an actor.
Scott, you're going to start our bidding.
Okay.
This is going to be titles that this actor has been in.
Okay.
And we'll start the bidding at five.
All right.
Oh, what's the strategy when there's five?
Yeah.
Because Brian can say, I can say four, he can say three,
and then I think I maybe could do it in two.
So I'll say, I'll start with four.
I can do it in four.
Okay.
I will take the three.
I'll let your little scenario play out.
Then I'll try it in two.
All right, two movie titles, this actor has been in.
Here we go.
Knives out
Okay
My girl
Um
Knives out and my girl
I think
Christopher Plummer's in my girl
And I know he's in Knives Out
So I'm going to say Christopher Plummer
Incorrect
Ah damn it
Who am I thinking of?
Brian you get a third title
Okay
I try and figure this out
Unless you want to take a
guess with just the two. No, no, because I'm definitely
going to need that third title.
All right. Our third title then is
Trading Places.
Oh, shit.
Was, uh,
was,
was,
okay, hold on a second, because I'm thinking
Acroyd because of trading places and
um,
uh,
was the,
what was the,
the, the name's out and what was the same? My girl. He was the dad and my
girl. He was, yeah. And he was in
trading places. I don't remember him in Knives out,
But was he a Knives Out?
That seems crazy to me.
Who am I not thinking of if I'm thinking, if I'm not, if there's somebody else in there.
All right.
I'm saying Dan Aykroyd.
Incorrect.
Now, can I steal that or no?
How does it work?
How the rules work?
Delayed fire.
I'll allow it.
You'll allow it?
Okay, because as soon as you said that, I knew it.
Jamie Lee freaking Curtis.
Yes.
Yep.
That is correct.
all right so wait did I break the rules there though can I still it's possible to steal if the second person got it wrong I don't know how the rules work when we do that you know what I'm saying so if I pick one and I'm wrong and then then it gets to do it and then if he's wrong does that give me another chance or am I is there a double steal or just a single steal I just a single steel just a single steel all right so I don't get a point for that or the rules are more like guidelines as soon as you said that movie I
knew who it was. Damn it.
Yeah. Dang it. I got really hung up on, you know, and women are actors. I got really hung up on what are the males in those movies.
Yes. Tell me more about the men in there. By the way, the other two choices would have been a fish called Wanda and Halloween.
All right. Those would have put you put it else. Definitely would have gotten it there.
All right. Round two, another actor. Again, titles, Brian, you will start the bidding.
Okay. And we'll start the bidding at five.
All the rounds are going to start at five this month.
All right.
I am going to...
I'm going to do four.
All right.
Well, I definitely can do it three.
So, yeah, I'll do it in three.
Okay.
Then I will take...
I'll take the two.
Okay.
Name that actor.
Here are you two titles.
Pardon me.
I'm somewhat eating lunch.
That's all right.
You're always welcome to do whatever you need while you're on here.
Take a break for 15 minutes, Travis?
Two titles are
Hunt for the Wilder people?
Okay.
Merlin.
Okay.
Wait, Merlin's a movie?
Yes.
I'm thinking of the TV show.
Hunt for the Wilder people.
Well, I...
It's not the TV show.
I will say, I'll give you this.
Merlin was a TV movie.
Oh, oh, okay.
Um, I don't know who is in Merlin, but I do know Taika Watiti was in Hunt for the Wilder people, so I'm going to say, Hunt, uh, Taika Watiti.
Yeah. In correct. Yeah. I know who it is. I think Scott knows this one. I think I know this one. Sam. You want to guess or do you want your third title? I'm going to guess. Well, you know, give me the third title. Go ahead. All right. Third title, Bicentennial Man. Sam Neal. That is correct. Yeah. Thank you.
I don't, I think, so Taika would teach you directed it.
He wasn't, maybe he was in.
He might have been in it, and I don't remember.
I love that movie.
I love that movie, too, and I could not tell you, until you said Sam Neal, I forgot he was in it.
So, yeah.
The easy modes for that, by the way, we're going to be Jurassic Park and in the mouth of madness.
I was hoping you were going to do, what's the space one that I love?
Sunshine.
No, the Event Horizon.
Event Horizon, yeah.
That was, we've done that movie.
a category, so I felt like that would be too
easy. Yeah. He was all
he looked like a desert floor at one point
Sam Neal did in that movie. It sticks
with me. Never leaves my memory.
Don't know why.
Anyway, go ahead.
Round three, our music round. Scott,
you're going to start the bidding. I've got
clips of, or, you know,
a few seconds of this song.
One, three, five, eight, and
12 seconds. So...
One, three, five, and
eight, and twelve. One three, five.
Yes.
Geez.
Okay, well, Brian's really strong at these, so...
What was the one above three?
Five?
Five? That's too much.
So if I say I can do it in three, what...
Then I have to them forced to take the one.
Yeah.
Okay, three. I can do it in three.
You can do it in three? Brian, do you want one second?
I'll take the one.
Yeah.
All right.
Name it. One second. Here we go.
Here's one second of this song.
That is Warren Zevon, Roland Zvon, Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner.
I knew it.
That's impressive.
Good work.
No, let me clarify.
I didn't know it.
I knew Brian would know it.
That's what I knew.
That's embarrassingly good.
Holy shit.
That is very good.
That is one of my favorite.
It's my favorite Warren Zeevon song.
I mean, it's right up there for me with Excitable Boy as some of my favorite Warren Zvon.
That whole album, the Redsiegel song.
The red cover, Warren Zevon, Excitable Boy, I'm so freaking good.
That is a great album, and I still wouldn't have gotten it right.
Damn it. I don't think I'd have added it at three.
That was a song.
Yeah.
Yeah, back in my college radio days, that was a song I always played on Halloween.
Because it's not like a direct Halloween song, but it's just in the right movie.
No, it's like the headless horsemen of gunfighters.
Yeah, exactly.
I like exactly.
Kind of literally.
Yeah.
All right.
That puts us at two to one.
with Scott in the lead
going into round four
which is another actor
by titles
Brian you get to open the bidding
for this round
starting at five
all right
I'm going to go
three
three all right
shit
so it's a good
opening salvo
Scott do you think you can do it in two
I'm going to try it in two
all right
Brian, you can try for one.
I'm not doing that.
No, all right, no haymakers.
Oh, that's true.
I mean, really, you know, there's no drawback to it, is there?
No, you're not going to lose anything.
I mean, you only can gain.
Yeah, okay.
I'll take the one.
Let's just, let's just, you name a movie and I'll name one of the people that I know is in it.
All right.
If I know someone is in it, but there's really no reason not to.
So, yeah.
All right.
Okay, here we go.
Your one movie to name this actor, Brian, is,
Vanilla Sky.
All right.
Well, I'm not thinking we're not going for the obvious.
I'm going to say.
Hmm.
Cameron Diaz.
Incorrect.
It was a valued effort.
I get another one now, right?
You get one more movie.
So Vanilla Sky was the first one
And your second movie, Scott, is 3,000 miles to Graceland
Oh, it's Kurt Russell
It is Kurt Russell
Yeah, yeah, I'd love that movie
And I was on the cusp of that
For the record, if I'd have been Brian's one guess
I would have said Cameron Diaz
No, I would have said Cameron Diaz
For sure
Also, shout out to Rainbow Bryce in the chat
Yeah, I would have gotten it wrong
Got Kurt Russell
Who did?
You know who I was
Brimble Brite got Kurt Russell
If I could have remembered
the name of the tech
support guy who rides up in the elevator with Tom
Cruz to explain that he's in a
simulation. I would have said that guy's name, but I
can't remember that guy's name, but he's in
everything.
Oh, I love that guy, yeah.
So hold on a second.
Well, I think you just
so that, you just helped me clarify
the end of that movie. I thought
the deal was that he wasn't in a simulation
that he just thought he was.
Was he in one?
If I got it all,
we did that.
open to interpretation i can't remember it now either i think that guy just tries to convince him that
he's in the simulation i don't remember if he's actually in a simulation but the joey guy says yes but i
don't know what that means the the kurt russell uh kevin kevin kevin um kevin shit the three thousand miles
of grace then kevin costner that that movie is great it's underrated people should see it
if you've never seen three thousand miles of grace land stop what you're doing and watch that i mean
And Kurt Russell doing Elvis, right?
Yeah, he's doing Elvis.
Yeah, how can you go wrong?
Yeah, Elvis and that's a guy who was born to play Elvis.
That's right.
He and Nick Cage, both born to play Elvis.
Does that give, is that, does that lock me out?
Is that enough points for Scott to lock this up or is there, uh...
That is actually enough for Scott to lock this up.
He takes...
He takes the win.
By the way, easy mode on Kurt Russell was going to be, uh, backdraft, um, used cars and escape from New York.
Oh, okay.
Captain Ron.
I always forget that even exists.
That's amazing.
Guardians of the Galaxy 2.
I love Captain Ron.
I don't think I have enough.
It's Martin Short, right?
Yeah.
Okay.
I need to revisit it because I have no memory of it.
I remember there's one with Letterman in it called Captain something else.
It's Chris.
Chris Elliott.
Not the Water Boy.
What is it?
It's these pipes are clean.
Cabin Boy.
I mix those two movies up.
they are the same movie to me and I don't know why it's it's that rare Martin short
movie where I think he has to be the straight man with with Kurt Russell being the
over the top character yeah yes yeah because he's usually yeah he's usually the weirdo
it's flipped though in that movie that has to be so painful for Martin short to to not
really go over the top it wasn't what's her name hold himself back like that what's her name
was in it too um his wife but it's forever yeah it's forever they're basically married
I don't know why they didn't just make it official.
Forever fiancé, forever partner.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
When you have, I don't know, you go that long, aren't you just, like, legally, aren't you just?
Depending on, yeah, depending on where you live, it's common law.
Yeah, that's what the word is.
Common law.
Common law.
Yeah.
But he's not the father of Kate Hudson, correct?
I was Goldie Hunt's first husband who had a last name that was Hudson.
Yeah.
I'm guessing.
Rock, wasn't it?
Was it Rock?
No, was it Rock Hudson?
I don't think it was Rock Hudson.
It might have been.
Maybe not.
Maybe I just made that up in my head.
I don't know.
Yeah, I can't remember either.
I don't think, I think Rock Hudson wasn't into.
Was it into women?
Kay Hudson, here we go.
Her parents were Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson.
Bill Hudson was, uh, oh, this guy.
Wow, he's cool.
I'm sorry, I've never seen this guy before.
What's he in?
Anything I would know about?
Oh, yeah, look at this guy.
It looks like David Copperfield when he's got short hair in some of these photos.
Look at that, chat.
It's amazing.
When you see him, you see him, you can say, oh, I see a little bit of Kate Hudson in his
face for sure.
Oh, yeah, definitely.
Totally.
Definitely.
Yeah.
He didn't have quite the career that the new husband got, but whatever.
No, he did, but he didn't, but similar hair to her.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Interesting.
Maybe she has a type.
Hmm.
No, no.
No, no.
I meant, I meant Goldie Hawn.
He said, Goldie Hawn.
Yeah.
I didn't meet Kate Hudson.
All right.
Well, that's awesome.
So that means I won, and that means what?
We're now one, Brian's only one up?
Five to four is the score now, yeah.
So come back in...
We're driving headlong towards a tie match, a tie breaker match for December.
Come back in November, you mean?
Yeah, not even...
Well, yeah, no, we come back in November to tie things up, but then a tie breaker match in December.
Gotcha.
Did you have another one, by the way, or just a tie breaker in case we needed it?
No, I have a fifth round, if you want.
Let's do the fifth round.
Let's do it.
as well.
Yeah. All right. Our fifth actor, or fourth actor, fifth round.
Scott, you'll open the bidding on this one at five.
All right. I'll do it in, I'll do it in three.
Okay. I'll take the, I'll take the two.
All right. You do that. You do two.
And then you try it in one. There's no, there's no. And then I'll try it in one if you
don't get it. There's really no reason not to because you can't even lose points.
No. No, this is great. It's very freeing. This is our, this is an arcade mode. I like it.
A revelation two years into this game that there's no.
And hopefully this fifth one will give us some insight on what the theme is
Because I still don't know what the theme is
I can't figure it out
Sure sure sure
All right so Scott your movie title is
Capex
Oh
Well there's the obvious one
Kevin Spacey
Oh shit who else was in that
Maybe this is a director thing
no it's actors is it actors oh you know what this one is off top here i don't no definitely don't
but i know that that at the beginning travis said these are all actors oh oh right but know what i meant
is what is the theme the he's trying to figure out the theme yeah oh gotcha gotcha okay
well the only other big actor in that i think was the dude
is he the shrink i think he yeah he was the one that was in there trying to figure out why
Pax thought he was from another planet or whatever.
Jeff Bridges, right?
Watching meathole bananas.
Because I don't think it's Kevin Spacey, I'll just say Jeff Bridges.
That's correct.
Oh, good job.
Wow.
All right.
So what, I still don't know what this theme is.
So, Scott, you were on the right track with a director thing.
So our four actors were Jamie Lee Curtis, Sam Neal, Kurt Russell, and Jeff Bridges.
All four of them have starred in movies directed by.
John Carpenter.
Oh!
The thing, Halloween.
Halloween.
Wait, what's Jeff Bridges?
Hold on the meeting.
Starman.
I always forget he made Starman.
When I saw K-Pax in the theater, I remember thinking, well, this is kind of cool.
Starman's interviewing Starman.
Yeah.
That's what it felt like to me at the time.
Weird.
That's kind of funny.
Yeah, no kidding.
Wow.
Yeah, I forgot all about him directing Starman for whatever reason.
I just never clicked.
It's such a different.
different movie for Carpenter Starman
because it's not a horror movie it's not like
a you know I don't know what
it's really sweet yeah it's like a
partially sci-fi partially
romantic drama
I mean it's you know
it's a that's a great movie
by the way was that was that
can't I give her name from Indiana Jones
Indiana Jones yeah
Karen
Karen Black
Karen Black yeah Karen Black
Karen Black that's not right
Karen Black is that right
Karen
shit
it's not black
Karen
it's not black is it
Alan Alan Alan Alan
Karen Alan yeah yeah yeah
Alan well that was fantastic
good one this month dude that was a lot of I mean it's always good
but that was a lot of fun and I feel good about my win
yeah we'll see if I can creep right up Brian's butt next month and
you will because really there's only one round in here that I always feel like I'm good at
and then there's a bunch of rounds in here that
You destroyed that music one.
Holy shit.
That was impressive.
I think you could have given me six seconds and I still wouldn't have known the song.
And I like that song, right?
Like, I know now that we've talked about it, I know what it is, but I'm so bad at like short chunks of songs.
Anyway, so next month, come back for six songs and one thing about movies.
That'll be great.
Can we do an all music round for November, please?
Could you work on that?
Yeah, work on that.
Hey, Travis, tell us about.
your shows and stuff or anything you want to promote right now what's going on uh so i want to actually
promote because there's only a few weeks left in the akewillow book campaign yeah for akewillow season

Yeah. She, I've been talking to Amy a little bit about it, but I want to get J.F. on here as well, let those guys really push through the final stretch of that thing and get some help from the TMS audience. Get some relief for those aching willows of theirs, man. I know, right?
I need some help. Won't somebody think of the willows, please?
Yeah. Who thinks of the willows? None of you. So do it now. All right. Thanks, man. Have a fantastic week, a month, whatever it is. Yeah. We'll see you soon. Bye. Bye now. All right. Off he goes.
you know i've learned about bill hudson for the first time today and i found out he's in the
movie uh big shots do you remember the movie big shots in the 1987 i don't i mean it sounds
like one of those generic names for a movie and i could not tell you uh what what um give me
give me a little bit of a plot a plot synopsis if i remember all right if i remember right
this is the one with um i forgot his name anyway the whole thing was like a a
was a comedy but had action and little kids i think so they were like kids as gangsters yes but
not the one where they're like 20s gangsters not that one yeah yeah yeah not um what was that called
bill bill or who's the guy that founded Vegas basically uh yeah yeah bugsy malone not that bugsy malone
thing right right but the but the but the other one that was like modern gang kids and they drove
like a Mercedes or some shit.
I guess I could look at it.
Yeah, here it is.
11-year-old boy.
Oh, it's Ivan Reitman.
Holy poop.
Oh, well, maybe you should watch that at some point.
I think we should.
Did he produce it or did he direct it?
Let's see here.
Let's see.
Director.
Robert Mandel, whoever that is.
By Robert Mandel, but produced by, yeah.
So check this out.
Aside from that point, what I was going to tell you was,
is it okay so this guy even though we don't barely know this um this hudson guy right bill hudson
he dated karen carpenter he dated actress mash actress loretta swit okay jill's
hot lips hulahan uh jill st john i don't remember who that is but the name's familiar
he became involved oh good what you can say i'm just saying john was um at least on six uh playing
six different characters on the love boat
Jill St. John, was she
had a TV show
a double headline
TV show, kind of like Kate Nally, but not
Kate Nally. Oh, Bob!
She was a Bond Girl, yes. She was
no, Maude Adams was Octopus, but it was in that
era. Diamonds are forever. Oh.
Oh, we've seen her then.
A little bit, really. Yeah. Jill St. John.
She was also in the original Batman.
Let's see. Big Valley.
Rona Martin's laugh in. Heart to heart.
Vegas with a with a dollar sign with uh what's his name the love boat Brian you might be familiar
with the love boat here we go okay uh the fan he was on that as well probably met jill seen john
probably probably did magnum P.I and then later Seinfeld I don't remember who she played on there
anyway good for her the point is that guy got around is what I'm saying
let's see oh Ali McGrath also tell me what you think of this horrible um movie poster by the way
for the big shots film let's take a look here
Oh, I hate it.
Yeah.
Is that real?
Holy shit.
Yeah.
Oh, there's the Mercedes, though.
I was right about that.
Weird.
Yeah.
That's bad.
That looks like a Venn diagram or something.
I don't like it.
Right.
Exactly.
It's like the laziest movie poster ever.
Just a bunch of, oh, that's not avant-garde.
I could figure that font out if I needed to.
And then little tiny mad magazine style sketches of things.
This is the one I remember.
in the video store, that one there.
Two of them leaning against the car.
Yeah, that's the one I remember.
So this other one is news to me, but that's bad.
You are correct.
That is terrible.
Never let that happen again, Ivan Reitman.
Any of these kids turn into something that,
no, it doesn't look like.
I'm just looking at this list.
Neither name sounds like, who's Ricky Busker?
Ricky Busker.
What did he do?
Oh, his name even auto directs to the
Big shots listing.
I'm sure it does.
That's all there is.
When you search for Ricky Busker,
it just automatically goes to the big shots of the movie on.
Yeah.
That's funny.
Oh, this other guy did all right.
This Darius McCrae was in,
he's into things all the way until last year.
He's all right.
The black kid.
He was in Mississippi Burning.
That's a big deal.
Hey, Monica, how's the movie?
Hold your breath.
I see that's now on Hulu.
Hold your breath is a out.
Hold your breath.
Sarah Paulson.
Looks like a horror movie, because Sarah Paulson's in the photo, crying and holding her neck like she's about to die.
Let's see.
Hold your breath.
There's something evil in the air, is the tagline.
Well, according to Polygon doing a movie review, they say, hold your breath, squanders everything it had going for it.
Okay.
Oh, squandered opportunity.
That guy.
He'll never die in our eyes.
He'll never die.
He died a long time ago, but we love it.
That is a bummer.
That's too bad.
1930s, Oklahoma amid the region's horrific dust storms,
a woman, Sarah Paulson is convinced that a sinister presence is threatening her family.
Ah, a bunch of rules that we can play around with and not adhere to.
It's not my favorite thing.
It's not my favorite thing.
Although, Terror Fier 3 is it 92%?
Holy shit.
Smile 2 already come out?
Um, Smile 2 is not out yet.
I don't think, uh, I'm trying to find that too.
I hear the first one. I hear the first one. I think you guys were telling me that it's, it's really freaking scary. That's also on Hulu.
I can't believe Terrifier's that high. Terrifier 1 and 2 are just Blood Fess. I don't know how these movies exist.
Well, anyway, I would watch all these because I like horror movies. I'm in.
Oh, it starts Kevin Bacon's daughter. Oh, I didn't realize that. Sozy Bacon.
Sizzley, Cicely Bacon? Uh-huh. She's, she's looking great. She's a little sizzling, right?
oh that's good that's good that's not real bacon that's like a fake bacon she's only five
steps away from everything you ever look at unfortunately she looks more like kevin than kira oh no i'm
kidding i'm kidding you need more sedgwick in there all right well uh well done everybody uh we're
we're gonna get out of here thanks for listening to today's show frogpans dot com slash dms is our

which Brian's probably going to present now, so let's hear it.
Brian, what do we got?
I will indeed.
This is a guy who just sent us some goodies.
Did you get your goodies yet, Scott?
No, but I'll bet today's the day.
They didn't show up yesterday, but I'll bet you're right.
It'll be coming via Amazon, by the way.
So that's how you'll, it's how he got mine anyway.
Okay.
Mike Pacholik, that's who we're talking about.
The most, boy, most physical objecty, generous guy in our, in the tadpool.
We talk about something.
He sends it to us.
We wonder about something.
something he sends it to us uh scott raves about something he sends it to us um or i rave about
something that he sends it to scott anyway mike um his fifth the 58th birthday was a couple
days ago about five days ago and i'm now just getting to this so my apologies mike um you know

love corn love the show though mike pacholic loving the love corn love and the love corn lots of lots of lots
of love for the love corn.
Look at the love corn.
They call it that because they can't call it corn nuts because it's whoever owns the thing to that.
And it's so much better on your teeth than corn nuts.
It just does not break your face like corn nuts does.
And this cheddar flavor.
Noice.
Noice.
Mike wanted to hear the Ed Sheeran song, The A Team.
The one covered by Boyce Avenue.
And of course, that's not the TV theme, but the actual song about drug use, right?
the popular kids and taking drugs.
That sounds about right.
Hey, let's hear that guy one more time.
Here.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I wish he was still, he doesn't do videos anymore.
Bam, I miss that guy.
He used to do this.
He would take themes and then sing them for you on his YouTube channel.
And they were amazing.
And I love the ending.
No, no, no, no.
Yeah.
He ends it.
He really ends it with some panache.
Let me jump to the end on it.
That's where it ends.
I don't know if that's right.
Anyway, that's amazing.
Anyway, sorry.
Detour.
The 18, here is Boyce Avenue from the second volume or volume two of their cover sessions,
which is like a 44 track album.
Or no, it's even more than that.
It's like $44, which was widened by the whole thing.
Cover sessions, volume 2 from 2012, Ed Shearins, the A team.
White lips, pale face, breathing in snowflakes, burnt lungs, sour taste.
Lights gone, days end, struggling to pay rent nights, strange men.
And they say she's in the class 18, stuck in her daydream, been this way since 18, but lately her face seems, slowly sinking wasting, crumbling like pastries, and they scream, the worst things in life come free to us, because we're just under the upper hand.
and go mad for a couple grams
And she don't want to go outside
Tonight
And in a pipe she flies through the motherland
Ourselves love to another man
It's too cold outside
For angels to fly
Angels to fly
Ripped gloves, raincoat, try to swim and stay afloat, dry house red clothes
Lose change, bank notes, weary eyed and dry throat, call girl, no phone, and they say
She's in the class 18
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately her face seems
Slowly sinking wasting
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us
Because we're just another upper hand
And go mad for a couple grams
But she don't want to
go outside tonight and in a pipe she flies to the motherland or sells love to another man
it's too cold outside for angels to fly an angel will die covered in wine closed eye and hoping for a better life but this time
We'll fade out tonight
Straight down the line
And they say she's in the class
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us
And we're all another upper hand
And go mad for a couple grams
And we don't want to go outside
Tonight
And in a pipe we fly to the motherland
I'll sell love to another man
it's too cold outside for angels to fly
angels to fly to fly to fly angels to fly angels
today
Hey guys
just listening
to Thursday show
that the Frisbee Tots
episode you guys are talking about Vermont
I've been up here
21 years I'm originally from
Pittsburgh PA
and even
New Hampshire has less people than the
surrounding area at Pittsburgh the entire state
but going to Vermont is
like, it's like stepping back in time.
I can remember my wife surprised me with a trip over there probably, probably 10 years
ago, but there was an old-school pizza hut, the original pizza hut still open in the same
shopping center as a radio shack.
And they, when you went to buy something with a credit card, they gave you the craft that
you have to spend $5 or $10 for them to use a credit card, which nobody does anymore.
Yeah, Vermont is a unique place
Every state up here has its own flavor
But yeah, Vermont's something special
Hey, love the show
Talk to you later, thanks, bye
