will pop on the air and tell you that it's time but tickets for tms vgas will be live and here's the good news uh all things swag have been locked down and it will be less expensive this year than last year that's right the only thing in the world that didn't inflate yeah no kidding in the last 365 days tms Vegas baby that's what now figure how is this possible i can't i can't promise that The burger you eat when you're there isn't more expensive. I don't know. I don't know how things went over the last year in Vegas. But this is actually the first time in a long time where I didn't do at least two visits to Vegas in the same year.

Last year, we went to Teamis Vegas and that was it. That's weird for us. Usually you are, especially for you, usually there's way more than I am. Well, in past years, there was one year that I was there seven times. I can't remember what year that was. but I had a year, I remember where my record was, I went seven times in one year. And it was all for different things. Like, you know, it wasn't for just, you know, always, yep, go there, go, play some slats, eat some food, come home.

There was some reasons for each of those visits that were separate. Last year, I had a concert, a separate concert that I went to. But this year left, it looks like it's just going to be that one trip, which is fine. Yeah, just fine. Yeah, not a problem. The year prior, I went with the kids in May, I think. So, like, two weeks later, three weeks later, we went again. Like, I don't know what happened this year.

We just didn't do it. So I am excited to see you all there. And guess what? You're going to have tickets soon so you can prove yourselves as to who you are when you arrive. Also, a little side note here. This is nothing to do with any of it except it's TMS Vegas. But you know TMS matchups, Jamie? You know, Jamie?

Confirmed coming to TMS Vegas. That's exciting. He's going to walk around with a microphone and catch all the dumb shit, everybody says. So, uh, we, uh, yeah, we, we were talking yesterday about a shipment that, uh, a 3D printed something for him. And he's like, oh, dude, that's too expensive. Just bring it to Vegas. Yeah. He's like, I can wait for it.

Sure. No, I think it's great that he's coming. And, um, we're going to get to meet his, uh, his nice girlfriend and, uh, his wife, or white girlfriend, sorry, girlfriend, her daughter. Her daughter, yep, although they're going to be doing probably different stuff every day than we all are. They are. Yeah. But we'll care. Don't worry, dude. We got you. We'll carry you. We know what's up. Claire will be there. She does this. She helps people, especially those who've taken a bad gummy. You know, she's there for it. Yeah, she will be your pot sitter. Is that what is it called? Pot sitter. I like that pot sitter. Weed sitter. Hold on.

Leedsitter. Cana. Cana. Cana guide. Cana Sherpa. I like it. Anyway, TMS.orgas is where it'll be. But don't go yet. Go tomorrow. Because that's when the tickets. be up there. I can go now if you want. All the details are there. You can go now. TMS.orgas still has a bunch of stuff. And I think I might So the Swingers folks, which is the miniature golf thing that we're doing Tuesday night. Thank you for clarifying that by the way.

Yes, I know, exactly. I want to make sure. And I wish it was called like Swingers Golf, but it's just called Swingers. And it's like, all right. You drop your keys off in this bowl. But it's, they got back to me and gave me a price. So I told him, hey, we got a group coming. Here's what we want to do, blah, blah, blah.

Is there any sort of group discounts we can get or anything like that? And they did get back to me to give us like a little section, like a little event space separate from where we would go to play golf. So we just basically have a little hangout area and then a place to play. And I think we might be able to get that I'll need to find out I think what I'll need to do is just have people either confirm their going and how many people

are going in their group and then and then if we get to this amount this number amount that they quoted me which is game food and beverage I don't know we'll see oh you know that's separate

I don't think we're going to hit this number. You don't think so? I don't think so. I think so. I think we might have to just book our own and just say, book your tea time in this block. In this area of time. Probably the sooner the better so we don't get a bunch of randos playing with us. Yeah, we don't want randos. Freaking if those guys. We don't want randos. We get enough randos in the bar car on the, you know, the big ferris wheel on the high roller. Yeah, there's not a great way to avoid that either, is there? It really isn't because it's just basically who shows up. And, you know, we all stay cluster together, right? So it's like all 18 to 20 of us in a group that go up in there to

say, yeah, we want to be in the same bar car. And then like two people will be like, hey, all right, let's do the bar car. And then they get in there and they realize it's the two of them and like 20 of us. And we're all shouting, you know, fart gas. Oh, drink. Well, anybody at home who's like coming, you're like, I don't want to do this. I don't want that thing. I'm afraid of heights. I'm down. in the, I do not do it either for the same reason. There's a lot of people, there's a lot of people who don't. And that group is getting bigger and bigger, the group of non-participants, which is great.

Yeah, we're happy to, happy to be the ground level people. Then you got you guys upstairs. Kim always goes. She likes being up in the sky. So, you know, more power to everybody who likes heights. I can't freaking do it. I can't do it. It doesn't matter.

Even an airplane is barely enough for me to not see what's happening below me. barely enough so you know if there was a if there was an equivalent ride where you had to crawl through a event like your john mclean and diehard then you all could do that and i would stay outside of that because that's that's the thing that i can't do i was going to ask you what do you think's worse that or the andy duffrain tunnel but it's obvious that's the new frame tunnel right it's the new frame tunnel just because of where it ends up yeah you're in the you're in a poop pipe you can't That's the other poop pipe. Exactly, yes.

You're in Nakatomi air vents that aren't even that we used. It's still sort of under construction. That's not so bad. But either way, you don't like the closed spaces. I get it. Yeah, exactly. Brian's with the closed spaces like I am with the heights. And actually, I don't like close spaces either.

So we're kind of on, we're kind of on par there. Anyway, TMS.orgas. Watch for it. Check it out tomorrow. Tickets. Very exciting. I got a lot of work to do today to get all that done. But it's all going to happen.

All right. It'll go up as soon as I get back. from the gym. So basically it'll be like Brian goes to the gym, quick shower, eat some food, and then post the ticket. So probably about 8.30, probably 30 minutes before we go.

Yeah, it'll be real close to the showtime. So if you're one of those people sitting around ready to snipe tickets, first of all, don't get too worked up. It's not like they're going to run out. It'll be fine. But, yeah, be ready. Have your finger, your little clicker finger.

That's right. F5, F5, F5. That's right. It'd be like buying blizzcon tickets in 2010. Because now it's easy to get. Anyway, hey, I got a funny story to tell you. So we're at this Asian market over the weekend. We decided to go, Nick and B were at home doing laundry and cleaning and stuff on Saturday.

He had the day off. And so they live downtown. And the baby is there, of course. And so Kim and I thought, you know what, let's go just like steal her for a few hours and just have a day with the kid. So give them some room, let them clean. do their thing and let's take the baby around town because this baby loves everything if there's lights and sounds and people she's stoked she just can't wait to get out there so we took her took her out for a few hours took her down to the asian market uh what are you looking for it did you

lose your key no no no i was just writing a note on my writing a note on my to-do list of something i don't want to forget oh you're so much better at doing that than me i'm so bad at it no i should get you know what go to a big crowd with a little kid i just want to make sure I wrote down that note based on what you just said. Look at this. I have a pen and I nothing to write on. If I have an idea, I got nothing. What am I going to write on? Oh, see, I didn't talk about this last week because I got sidetracked. I was talking about Chris Brown and his Super Bowl party. I didn't even talk about the fact that he gave me this beautiful Scrivener pen. Scribvner, is that a brand I should be aware of? That is a brand that you should

be aware of. This is the most perfectly balanced weighted pen I have ever used. It's, you know, it's got some, it's got some heft to it. It's got a few ounces under its belt. Oh, look at these. These are fancy. It writes as smooth as silk.

This thing is beautiful. So these are, see, these are out of London. Look at these pretty pens. Yeah. Comes in a fancy schmancy box. And basically it came about because last year at Super Bowl Party, I was filling out all the proposition bets and uh he had this pen he had he had his his scrivener pen i said oh there's a nice pen and

for about the next 20 minutes no for about the next three hours we did the you like the pen take the pen take the pen i'm not going to take your pen take the pen take the pen and i didn't take his pen he offered me his pen i said i'm not going to take your pen and uh and so he got me my own pen this super bowl party oh that was nice of him yes so these uh is this a fountain style or a ballpoint Nope, it's a ballpoint. Roller ball or whatever. Yeah. Yeah, I think this is the ballpoint.

Do you know which one, the name? I'm looking, Scribner Classic, Midnight Blue? No, that would be right. This is Midnight Blue, so that's probably the classic Midnight Blue right there. I'm tempted. I need it. Sure looks like it. I like a good pen, dude.

Oh, who doesn't? Oh, I love a good pen. You can probably get it for about $3 or $4 cheaper than what you're looking at right now on Amazon. But that, yeah, you're zooming in on that. That's exactly what this thing is. looks like. So I bet this is the classic. This is their actual website. I should probably save money somewhere else.

But I like a good pen. It's not too bad. $32 for a good pen. It's not bad. 33 for a pen that you will have forever. Yeah. You'll never not have it. And I guess refills, right? Do you have waste of it? Yeah, refill. You got refills very, uh, comes with one refill and then I think they're relatively inexpensive.

Hey, Scribner, reach out if you, uh, if you like what you've heard today. Become, become, uh, a sponsor. Yeah. Yeah, TMS Vegas sponsor. That's a highfalutin event. Let us know. You know who you need as a sponsor, by the way. Who's that?

We need a game table company as a sponsor. Like a company that makes really cool high-end gaming tables like the one they have a chip theory games. Yes, that's right. Chip theory games. Dude. Rob, friends of TMS. Yeah, friends of the program. See, it's a very cooperative thing to sponsor us.

So get in touch, is what we're saying. Yeah. Get in touch. Anyway, so we're out with the kid. Here's the deal. Yes. So we're out with the kiddo, she's great Just love hanging out with her

She's on my shoulders the whole time She loves it up there Talk about a kid that's not afraid of heights She doesn't care She's just up there going She's not even holding onto my head She's just like loose And I'm holding her feet like

You know, dear life or whatever And having a great time We went to the mall I got food there She flirted with the kebab guy They just waved at each other constantly while we were eating It's super cute

And then later on So this is all fun and we're all having a great time. We go to the Asian market, and it's this big market, KT Data, if he's here, he'll know exactly that what I'm talking about. It's the big collection of, it's basically Chinatown, Korea town, Vietnam town, all kind of in one big area, and it's beautiful, and the food's amazing, and they have this huge market. So we're in there, and we're walking around, and there's a little lady working there,

little Asian lady, who's a lot shorter than me. Now, that's not hard to do. I'm six foot three and a half. you know, I'm a tall guy, so most people are shorter than me. But in her case, she's a lot shorter than me. She's probably only comes up to the pockets on this jacket, just like a little. Oh, gosh. Really short.

Very, very short. And it was just totally fine. She's wearing, like, the uniform of the place and is, you know, putting vegetables and things and just work in the produce area with these. By the way, can I just say the Asian produce is not like normal. produce. They've got like roots that look like, you know, a space rock landed. Like Groot's head. It's like you're, you know, walking by a whole bin of Groot heads. Yeah. And like red flowery things that look like you found a new planet in no man's sky. And, you know what mean? The fruit that looks like it would hurt, it hurt you if you picked it up with spikes all over it.

Yeah, it might explode if you get too close to it. Right. Yes. So that place is already a little bit crazy, but it was busy and she was running around and doing stuff. And I could see that she was looking at a thing that was too high for her to get. So I thought, well, I'm going to do what tall people are meant to do with our stupid superpower and help pull it down for her. So it's a box and it had something in it. So I said, oh, let me help. And I reached up and I grabbed it and I pulled it down to her.

And she goes, you too tall, you too tall, you too tall. You started walking away. I didn't say, didn't smile. I know. He didn't yank it out of her hands and put it back. But all she could do is yell you too tall and walk away and like not even make a face out of it. Really?

Yeah, I was a little sad about that. Did you not even, you didn't get a thank you just, you too tall. You're too tall. You too tall. And then she left. Wow. And she just seemed not mad, but kind of, I don't know, it's hard for me to explain. And look, I grew up in a family that was very mixed.

We have, you know, all these Korean siblings and their families we'd meet and everything. And there is a, there is a certain kind of culture vibe happening there. It isn't just, she's not, like, if there's some cranky white lady, I would have just been like, oh, boo, who do you, right? But there was something, there was something like feisty about her, like she was like, yeah, I could, you know, if I was at her level, karate chop, I'm dead. Like, I can't explain it. So in a weird way, it was kind of a positive experience or more like an affirming experience.

Like, yeah, dude, that's right. You don't take any shit from people like me. You keep going. I kind of liked it. It was weird. Yeah. Anyway, I too tall. I think if you got that collar from the movie Up that Doug wears.

that tells you what he's constantly saying chihuahuas constant would be yelling you too tall yeah too tall yeah that's their whole thing they're mark means exactly that little yippy thing you hear yeah too tall and that's everything in their lives everything's too tall to a chihuahua that's true yeah yeah yells it with the fence post uh the you know the mailbox the bookcase everything it's great though we had a we bought some you know korean things and some uh cool there's a new fub place i want to try there's all kinds of cool stuff in there it's really awesome I love how Asian markets seem to, like, have, the ones we have, both of them close to me, are in strip malls, and all of the restaurants all around them are like, oh, I want to go there to Korean barbecue. Ooh, I want to get fa there.

Oh, I want to go there for, you know, dim sum. It's like, you know, they say, you're here for the market already. Why not come to our restaurant where we're using that food you just buy? Yeah, and they're working their asses off, and you can tell how into it they are. and the pricing isn't bad the restaurant food is lower than some equivalent up the road like i freaking love it and they're all you can tell their families running these places and there's just something going on man so i walk in there all white and six three going hey what's up and everyone's like oh man you too tall you too tall right anyway good times hey brian remember there our kombucha

discussion and we were talking about whether we like the chunks in it and all that stuff it was Yeah. Thickened liquid or whatever. We really, I think we both agreed. We don't want the chunks. No. We don't like the chunks, eh? Well, we got a call.

It's a little scratchy apologies for this. It's not us. It's something with his phone. I can't tell what happened. Maybe he was, it almost sounded like he was electrifying himself, like rubbing a balloon on himself the whole time. Okay. But here's his commentary regarding that.

It's about 29 seconds. Here you go. Hey, guys, Nick from Ottawa here. On Thursday, you were talking about, kombucha and chunks floating in it. Those are called the big chunk is called the Scobie or the mother. A bunch of

yeast cultures that break down and ferment the kombucha. Generally you don't drink them, they are removed. I used to brew kombucha a few years ago. I called my Scobie the Yeasty Boys. Anyway,

just figure I'd let you know that. Talk to later. Of course she named him the Yeasty Boys. That's incredible. Eastie boy. Mom's just jealous. It's the yeasty boys. Yes, Scobie stands for symbiotic culture of bacteria in yeast.

Oh, it's an acronym. Didn't know that. It's an acronym. And here's a picture that will just make you so hungry for kombucha. Let's take a look here. Oh, my. That's a kombucha, Scoby. That looks like half a peach.

What are you telling me here? Look at this, you guys. Holy shit. Oh, that's gross. Yeah. Oh, what gross got out the most today. That did. That would do it.

Yeah. So that's what? Like floating at the top or something or at the bottom? Yeah. Okay. Damn. Here's, Damn.

Here's what it looks like in the jar with the rest of it, with the rest of kombucha. Oh, see, that looks like something you'd find on the, remember the intro to the first year of American Horse Story? It does. This is like when you've got that really, uh, um, clipping, like really clippy way to processed audio. Yeah. That's what they're showing. Yeah. This is like a nine-inch nails.

It's like nine-inch nails era, doll. Yeah, like there should be a little head in there floating in there. Or eyeballs or something. Oh, that's foul. Nope. Nope. I don't want to drink anything that requires you to do that. So he says you take that out, I guess, and then you're left with.

But see, the problem is there's bits. Whether or not you take that lump out, there's all of it out. I mean, I guess you could super filter it, but. I get why it's good for your gut. I truly do. Sure. But I'll do kimchi. kimchi. I'll do Greek yogurt.

Yeah, there you go. Greek yogurt. It's got the good... Kimchi, diacon. Yeah, yeah. Things that don't taste like somebody's rotting butthole. How about that? Exactly. Yes. Thank you for that. Anyway,

big thanks for that. Brian, you and Randy put something together. I'm very excited about this. Please tell the folks. We did. So this is kind of a film sack thing, but guess what? It's for everyone. It's not just film sacky. um scott or i mean uh randy and i are huge oscar nerds like we both try and see all of the best picture nominees we use it as kind of like a uh a bellwether to like see what movies we need to see before

the beginning of march every year even before that we're looking at the feinberg forecast and saying all right what are the movies that are on the oscar radar uh look and see what does well at the globes at the sagg wards etc and so we uh we have a special episode of film sack that we last month, and we're doing another one, or I guess earlier this month, after the nominations were announced. And then we're doing another special episode on Thursday, because the Oscars are coming up on Sunday. And we want to open it up and see what people think are going to be the winners of the Oscars this year. So, if you go to tiny.com slash film sack Oscars, all lowercase, tiny.ccccccc slash film sack Oscars, then it'll take you to our

Oscar pick and pool. Now, here's what's really cool about this one. It's, you know, when you do a regular Oscar pool, you've got whatever it is, 20 things you have to choose from. And that makes it where if you're playing with a large group of people, a ton of potential ties because, well, everybody guessed complete unknown for this and everybody guessed wicked for that. With this one, you've actually got two picks that you make for every category, one that you're putting 40 points on and another one that you're putting 20 points on. Or there's other levels in some of these. So if I went Monica Barbaro for a complete unknown for 40 points, if she wins, I get 40 points.

If she loses, but I chose Zoe Saldania for as a secondary in the 20 point column, I get those. Exactly. Right. Or if you're really sure that Felicity Jones is going to get it for the Brutalist, you can mark her. for both and take 60 points if you're correct. So on ones where you're 100% sure, it's like, oh, yeah, no. Shala, Timothy,

Salome is going to be getting the best actor. And you can put both of your picks on Salome. Yeah. And really get, you know, 60 points for that guess as opposed to hedging your bets for a couple choices. Like, best

picture. I mean, you know, I've been raving about conclave, but I feel like the brood list has a really good chance, too. So I might put 40 on Conclave and 20 on Brutelist. That's what I did, actually. I'll tell people now, that's my vote for best picture was Conclave, big points,

small points, Brutelist. I've seen Brutelist. It's just all this talk about it. It feels like it's happening, but exactly. So there you go. So get in there. It's really easy. And if you don't want the complexity, just put both of your picks for the same

item. And then it's just like any other Oscar pool. And you might get kick-ass points. Who knows? Yeah, tiny.cc.c slash film sack Oscars. Yep, I will put a link right here. There will be a link in the Discord. There will be links. We're going to share it on all of our socials,

all of our film sacker socials. Hell yeah. And have some fun with it. Yeah, I love this kind of stuff. This is awesome. Well done. I also love the description of how the points work is great because you guys are,

you have a fake example of where, who's the best cardinal? The best pope. They're the best cardinal. Yeah, it's amazing. It's an amazing way to illustrate how the scoring works. A reference to the great movie Conclay. There you go, yeah.

I think Conclay's going to win, but whatever. What do I know? Here's what's weird. I didn't realize that this stuff was voted on already. We're already well done with the votes. So there's a winner for all of these categories right now. We don't know what they are. They have to print up the cards and...

Yeah. They have a whole thing. I don't know why in my head it was like, oh, they'd probably do it the night before. I don't know why I thought that. And then somebody stayed up there, stayed up all night with their printer, printing out every, you know, card that Warren Beatty's going to misread on stage. Yeah.

Sure. So I went digging, though, because I got curious. I was like, have these ever gotten leaked before because of the time involved? He did once, didn't they? I couldn't find anything about leaks. Okay. I remember there being a controversy one year. Was it?

Maybe it wasn't the leak, but... I mean, the Beatty thing is definitely maybe the worst. The Beatty thing is, yeah, is... Can you imagine? Oh, gosh. Dang it. The hoops, the hoops, they must jump through now to make sure that never happens again, you know?

Right. Because I'm thinking like, did she, what did it turn out to be, that she picked up the wrong envelope? I can't remember what the deal was. Because they definitely read the wrong name from a piece of paper. They did. And I think they read it from, because it doesn't, the piece of paper that they open up, the envelope doesn't have the nominees on it.

They read the nominees from a teleprompter. Right. The winner's just in the envelope. And they got the, It was that upset when the Bruce Willis and Sibble Shepard TV drama took the crown from the... All I know is as soon as that picture is available of him holding up the card with the name on it, I quickly photoshopped it out and put Fury Road, which fixed a mistake from 2015.

Because, you know, it doesn't matter how long ago, there's no statute of limitations. Statute of limitations on mistakes made by the Oscar committee. And they made a mistake in 2015, so they finally fixed it. Thank goodness. Sure, sure. Just like the Marissa Tomei mistake. Yeah, that one. How they said, how did Marissa Tomei win for my cousin Vinnie when there were all these other.

You know what I'm really glad about? Her career has proved out that she was worthy of that. Like, screw those guys. She was good in that movie. She deserved it. Yeah. I don't remember what the competition was. She's been good in everything since.

That's right, damn it. Leave her alone. And the woman that they got to do her voice and May's voice. in the animated series. It's funny how close it sounds to Marissa Tome. Unless it really is Marissa Tomey, and I didn't know that. Oh, I haven't heard it yet. The new show you're talking about?

The new show, The Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man on Disney Plus. I haven't heard it. I didn't know that they tried to kind of match her tone. That's funny. Yeah, they did a great job, like, capturing the Steve Ditko feel of that, of the animation, just like they did with X-Men 97, making sure that the animation style looked close. close to the old 90s X-Men show, they did the same thing with us to say, all right, let's make it feel like Steve Ditko did the art, and it's really, really good.

Here's a question for you that you don't have to answer if it's spoilery. Okay. Does that show feature some crossovers? Do I get other characters in the universe that aren't just his villains? That's easy to tell you. Yes, you do. You get other mobile universe characters, yes. And not just the spidey rogues gallery.

You get some, yeah. So other heroes, perhaps. Yeah. Other heroes. Not a spoiler. I like that. That's good. Not a spoiler. I think even in the first two minutes of the first episode, you will find a surprising cameo from another Marvel character. Oh, my gosh. Squirrel Girl confirmed, you guys. Did you hear it? You heard it here first.

Yeah. All right. Well, let's move on. We got to get Brian done away in here. We got to play a game. Yeah. We got to. We have prizes to give away. We have people waiting, you know. Like there's no. That's right. There's no dicking around here. this is serious business so here he comes let's get him in here and let's get this on the go oh is he

It's time for us to play a little Monday morning half-asses with one Brian Dunaway who joins us now. Hi, Brian. Oh, hi, Scott, Brian. How's it going? How was your meeting? Everything go okay? It's fine. How is any meeting go? Not good sometimes. Sometimes bad. Best you're going to hope for a meeting is that it's short.

Yeah, exactly. You want a nice short meeting, and I hope that's what you have. By that metric. I won. Yeah. Good job. Good job. Well, so you're doing metric down in South Carolina. That's fantastic. That's right.

That's right. Hey, let's get to it. Brian, I bet. Explain these rules. Explain to us who might win. All the fun stuff you do each Monday. Sure.

Sure. Like this. Welcome to the morning. Half-asses. A trivia game where I'm actually going to be giving these two guys the answers. I'm going to give Scott and Brian a category and six possible answers, three of which are correct. Three like that scoby thing and your kombucha are just plain wrong. Depending on how confident you feel.

at the category, you can provide one, two, or three guesses, but if any of those guesses are wrong, you get zero points for that round. One gets you a point. One right gets you, two right gets you three points. Listen, I could, I could just do a recording from now on, done away. No, no, then I wouldn't get all the entertainment. Exactly. And three gets you count them five, five points total.

If the player with the most points after three rounds, wins the prize for their contestant. And I've pulled contestants from members of the tadpool that ain't able to be here live let's get to him uh scott you're going to be playing for amanda in gardiner kansas oh i like playing for the ladies oh man duh and brian my sister's name is that and i always have to emphasize the duh part man duh duh that's a brother's baroque you're playing for barry in uh chicago or san francisco wherever he happened oh the berry that's fantastic yeah the actual berry that's great dude i like it when uh barry is more than just the This, you know, we talk about Barry a lot.

He's got a lot of, like, he's the deep state of TMS. He's like in the, you don't talk about Barry. Yeah. He's kind of like the fifth beetle of TMS. Yeah, no one sees him. No one. You just hear about some of his inner workings. Right.

And he's getting shit done, but you don't ever really see this guy's face. Wine, talk and all that stuff. Yeah, exactly. Exciting. All right. Well, let's get to it. And we'll talk about the prizes here in just a moment. But first, we need to get to your questions.

Let's get to question number one. countries with a higher population density than Germany. Which of these countries have a higher population density than Germany, meaning more people per square mile if you, you know. Wait, wait. What's that mean? Yeah, it means more people per square mile, Brian. You know what? I've never, I've never known what it meant.

So I want to tell you that I appreciate you explaining that. Oh, good. Okay. Yep. There we go. I've always heard it and I assumed it just meant people in small places or, you know, cities packed in. I just thought it meant you were dense. Oh, you mean the question, not the explanation, not an explanation.

Oh, I got you. All right. Your choices are. Netherlands, Taiwan, Pakistan, Italy, Japan, and China, which of those have a higher population density than Germany? But you're my density. People per, see, there's a lot of places. This is the trick because there's a lot of land in some of these places, right? Correct.

Yeah, my throw you off. Yeah. Hmm. All right. Well, I know there's at least three, so we're going to give these a shot. Poo, pew, p, p, p, p, p, p, p, p, all right. Okay. See how we do. You both locked in, and you both locked in on Japan. Japan, absolutely, has a, this one doesn't tell me what Germany has, but it tells me what the other ones have. Japan has 865 people per square mile. Oh, not foot. They're all stacked on top of each other.

I just always thought of that fact. So correct. Japan is correct. You guys split on your other answers. You each did too. Scott chose Italy. Brian chose Taiwan. I will tell you that Italy.

You chose the boot. And I chose the other shape. Yeah, whatever the shape is. I don't even know what the shape of Taiwan is. The cheese doodle. Taiwan has an amazing 1,689 people. per square mile. $1,689 people.

Italy has 518 people per square mile, meaning that Japan and Taiwan are correct. Three points for Brian. Netherlands was the other one. Netherlands has 1,081 people per square mile. It felt cramped over there. They're very cramped people. Yeah. They're people with cramps.

Japan seemed easy to me because it's just, you know, the Isle of Japan is not a massive place. I would have said Pakistan, actually, when I did this. one myself. I said Pakistan. It's close. 662 people per square mile, but... Your tricky one there is China, because everyone's going to assume China because there's a billion people in China, but you don't realize how big the landmass is. It's so big. China has 376 people per square mile when you average it all out. The cities are packed. Yeah, the cities are packed, but you've got like so much rural and farm and all that, it's just like not even closing. All right. Rice patties, am I right?

You are right. Do I know my China or what? I have no idea. You really don't. I've seen a lot of Nailed it. Yeah, good job. Perfect. All right, let's get to. So, Brian, three points for that one. Scott, getting points on the next one. Let's see if Scott can get some points here.

You guys both should get this one. Three Amigos characters. Which three of these are characters from the film, the legendary classic film, The Three Amigos. Your choices are Levi Slim, Lucky Day, Ned Netherlander, Dusty Bottom, Gil Buckman, and Smiley Burnett. Three of those are characters from the film.

Three of them are not. Couldn't pick the top three, could you? No, I had to give me these, wherever the hell these people are. I think it's been like two decades since I watched this. Hold on, Ned Niederlander. I think I know it. I think I know it. It's been a while.

It's been a while since I've been. One feels right, but the other one I'm not sure about them. I just don't know. Fair enough. All right, you guys both settled on Lucky Day. Yeah, Lucky Day is absolutely one of the three Amigo. And Brian, you just lucked in on that one. So there you go.

Congratulations. You get a point for that. Now, Scott, you went big and added Dusty Bottom and Ned Netterlander to it. And I'm here to tell you that was the right move. Those are your three of you guys. And it's funny. You said the top, you said, Brian, you could have chosen the top three. Those are your top three.

Those are your Steve Martin, Martin, Martin, Short. Is it really? Chevy Chase. Yeah, let me see if I can you remember which one's who. So Lucky Day, I think, is, uh, Martin Short. I thought Ned. I thought Ned was Martin Shish.

Ah, shit. I'd probably have it wrong then. Okay, so let's say that's it. So Lucky Day. He was Little Ned or something like that in the older movie. So Lucky Day is probably Martin and Dusty Bottoms probably Chase. I don't have that right? I think so.

I think it's the opposite. Right. Oh, is Dusty Steve Martin? Like it says, it's been 20 years since I've seen it. It's been a while, yeah. I love that movie when I saw it. Yeah, me too. Are these other people real?

These other names? It doesn't say, that they are, but Rufus says that Gil Buckman was from Parenthood. Oh, which I think I'll which I think was Steve Martin, right? Yes, yes. It had to be Steve White. That's a sneaky one. I like that.

I wonder if Levi Slim might be another you know, another Martin's short character or Smiley Burnett might be another. Yeah, Martin was little Ned. So Dusty was, Dusty Bottoms was Chevy Chase. Look at that. There you go. Lucky is Steve. Look at that. I think three migos is definitely

sackable. I think we should do it. It's, it's one of those comedies that is it's more than just hey here's a dumb comedy it's a thing of its time very specific and a huge impact we absolutely should sack that movie Brian's right I vote I vote Brian's

motion carry it forward A plethora of votes That's right oh that guy Oh my gosh And you know who's great and underrated He's very brief in it but very early on John Levitts plays like the movie guy He's fantastic as that

He plays the movie guy This producer or director or something. He's like a studio owner back in the day, like the Mr. DeMille kind of thing. And he's great. He's freaking great. He's underrated. You know how you can tell it's a mail plane? Anyway, all right, let's get to last question.

So this is, we got ourselves a tight game here. Scott with five points, Brian with four going into the last question. You guys got to pull out all the stops on this one. And too bad you don't have Barry here to help you. But which of these three or which of these six? Which three of these six are sizes of wine bottle? You've got your choices of magneton, geroboam, graveler, grandbel, nebuchadnezzar, Imperial are your six. Nebuchadnezzar.

It sounds massive, doesn't it? How about a, I could really go for a nebuchadnezzar of wine, please. It's so big. Which of these three are, or I'm sorry, which three of these six are sizes of wine bottle? well let's see Donaway only needs one to tie it but if he gets it wrong I could win with one

but maybe I do two to be safe I'm gonna be two to be safe or three I did all three Ryan Donoey I did all three don't you worry about me congratulations because guess what I did all three as well

because we've done this one before I can't remember what the answers were though we haven't done this one before of course we have I don't think this card was not flipped up in my box. I've never heard these names before, so I don't think this is it. Dunnways thinking about the time

he was drunk on wine, and they were all telling you. You may have heard three of these before Scott, because your answers were, oh, by the way, you can say, you guys selected five different ones. Like, neither of you doubled up on anything. Oh, shit. Brian, you chose

Imperial. That is correct. That is a giant wine bottle. You also chose the Nebuchadnezzar, and that also is a giant line bottle. I don't know the actual sizes on these things. Scott, let's see. Brian, you chose Magneton.

Scott, you chose Graveller and Granble. Those last three I said are all Pokemon. Gravler, Magneton, and Granble are all Pokemon. Let me take it to this. I know nothing about wine bottles just the sizes of them, but I definitely remembered Nebuchadnezzar and Imperial, and I was guessing at the last one.

man if you we've done we've done something yeah with this i just don't know what i don't know what either let's see i think i'm going to give you guys a thing you can put this on screen scott but i think this is berry holding up oh is it not in my barry oh maybe i don't have it in my wine list or my wine thing here well you're looking that up somebody in the chat says that john levitz was not in that movie yes he was here he is he played the character of morty and here's a picture of him in the movie with uh might even be a um i forgot have even been a no there was a deleted scene with um jane lynch i think was it jane lynch oh really wow weird i didn't know she was in that yeah there was a there was a deleted scene that took out somebody's

performance completely but look at phil look at young phil hartman too yeah phil harman hanging out with him i forgot phil hartman was in it to be honest he must have been kind of quiet there's the three chuckleheads and there's there's uh morty the film mogul. And he was fantastic in it. So take that chat. Take that. Take that chat. Take that chat. Did you find it, Brian? Sorry. I did. Let's see if this works. It's one of those dumb H.EIC photos. So let me know. I think you can download and open it that way. I'd be fine. Let's see. Yeah. Yeah, I can do that. Cool. Why are you doing trash the H.EICs, man? Well, just it's not super compatible with like quickly displaying it in places. Yeah. You know, which is my God. The type quality, we like that aspect of it.

Why don't we got to look at all this stuff? Oh, my lord. Tell me what that is again. What's that size? I don't know what size that is, but it is freaking a massive wine bottle. It's as big as Barry. It is taller than Barry's torso. I was going to say, you could put Barry's head on it, dress it up in a suit and call it Barry.

That's crazy. That's wild to me. Looks like he's wearing the matching shirt for sure. Oh, my gosh. Good job, Barry. Well, he would know. he's a cork dork. Hey, that means, by the way, congratulations going to Scott and by proxy, Amanda from Gardner, Kansas.

You're going to be getting a copy of 911 operator, operator, operator, and ellipse on Steam, courtesy of... Don't worry, Barry, you're going to get the better game. Maybe you're, uh, Barry, you're getting a copy of Chicken Invaders 5. I don't know what that is. There you go. I've played 9-1-1. 9-1 operators actually. pretty fun. It's like a kind of chore-core kind of cool thing. I don't know what Elips is

and Chicken Invaders 5 is definitely not a thing I know about. But Barry, congratulations regardless. That's fantastic. Yes. Also, Barry, let us know what size that bottle is. I'm real curious about that. He didn't know what asked him he said it's like

four magnums. Oh my gosh. Magnum is the bottle size I've heard of and that's like a... They call it the berry. Yeah. They call it the berry. Barry size is what that is. They should call it the berry. I love that idea. All right. Well, well done.

Hey, Donaway, I was worried I was going to lose today, and I just feel better about my whole week, and I hope yours isn't ruined. Is your week going to be okay now that you lost? I'm great, man. Yeah. You are a great man. I agree with that. One of my favorite people on the world, everybody, make sure you're checking out his YouTube channel and his Twitch channel. He's always like streaming stuff and getting prepped for the play retro this weekend.

We've got that coming up, and we're doing Space Quest, if you can believe. it oh my gosh space quest oh my gosh i can't wait just for the puns it's a horrible gameplay it's going to be great the bad gameplay that doesn't hold up all that stuff it's going to be wonderful but a very influential series that you know deserves its place in history so that's our job on play retro is to do that is to talk about it and we will done away in the meantime go suck a nut okay oh geez i was trying to throw them off and it worked yeah like you meant a boiled peanut obviously clearly oh yeah i didn't yeah i didn't mean uh Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Nothing else, nothing, no other meaning. War Porch says that the Nebuchadnezzar is the largest at 20 bottles big. So basically that the Nebuchadnezzar is the size of 20 regular wine bottles. Jeez. And is that what that was? That he's hope we still don't know? That doesn't look as big. That does not look as big as the Nebuchadnezzar.

And the Nebuchadnezzar you would use at a giant banquet for the king or something like. Yeah, I mean, I think it's something you would basically, um, uh, you put on a show. shelf to display. Let's see. The Balthazar is 16 bottles. The Salamazar is 12 bottles. Imperial is eight bottles. The Jerobome

is six bottles. The magnum is two. The double magnum is four. So what Barry's holding might be like an imperial, which is the equivalent of eight wine bottles. It might be bigger. It could be a 12 bottle, Salmanzar. Yeah, that's pretty big. I don't know how you travel with

that. Like, is he putting that in his crate? bringing it to Vegas? Probably not. Yeah, I don't know. Bobby says you put it in a water cooler dispenser thing. I like that. Right. That's one way to distribute the wine around the office. Yeah. All right. It is time for us to do a little bit of news. So here you go. Today's news is brought to you by eating Indian rice that had already been chewed and not knowing about it. Yeah, we were at the mall and the Greek food we got was good. But I didn't see Kim feeding the baby some of the rice. And it's the, what's the yellow, uh, spice? No, it's like a yellow, like a saffron.

Saffron, that's it. Yeah. I think, I think that's what she said. Anyway, she's eating this yellow tinted, tented, spiced rice and it's not like spicy, but she didn't like it. She didn't like it. She didn't like it. So she's kind of like, yeah, and spitting it out. So Kim takes what she spit, spat out and just like tossed it back in the pile of rice.

Now, this wasn't my rice to eat. So she assumed that this is fine. No one's going to touch that rice, but her and this. the baby. Well, they're goofing around and stuff. And I'm like, I'm kind of hungry still. So I start just, like, chowling down on this rice. And then she says, um, that has like baby spit rice in there. I was like, shit. All right. Well, I ate baby spit rice. What are you going to do? Oh, it could have been turmeric too. Oh, turmeric. That's it. That's it. That's it. Yeah. Tumric. Yellow. Sure. There's an R. Turmeric. Yeah. And it gives. Is it, oh, there is an R? Oh, there is an R? I

didn't know that. There's an R. It's a turmeric. It's not the turmeric. It's not. I'm told it will turn her diaper yellow is all I know. Probably, yeah. She didn't eat much. Here's the story for you. A rafter, meaning like dude in a raft. Velasa rafter. Yeah.

Yeah, not like a rafter in your ceiling, you know, those rafters. Yeah, yeah. Is briefly swallowed by a whale in Chile, as they say. Sure. And his father filmed the whole damn thing. Oh, jeez. So that's pretty cool. For insurance, I guess.

Yeah, you got to keep a record, you know. Paddling through choppy waters under cloudy skies. Adrian Samakas, Simmanacus, Simonakas, Simonkus. I don't know, how you say that. Sima. Simoncus. Adrian Samankas. If it's Chile, I would say Simancas.

All right, there we go. And his father, we're pack rafting. That's where you pack, you know, you're packing. It makes sense. Only a few yards from each other. when something huge lunged mouth open from the waves below. A humpback whale appeared to gulp Mr. Samakis down, then rolled over onto the waters in the Chilean Patagonia.

Moments later, Mr. Samakas bobbed back up to the surface, followed by his kayak-sized vessel. The dark curve of the whales back briefly emerging behind them and then sank out of sight. He did not like the taste of Mr. Smokas, it turns out. Apparently not. He caught the whole thing on. video or his dad did. It says, quote, I felt something hit me from behind. This all happened in a

second, something dark blue or white. That's a weird thing to say, dark blue or white. Yeah. It's definitely one of the two. It's like the dress. It was definitely either dark blue or white, depending on how you looked at it. Yeah. That's a really weird thing. It is really weird. Yeah. Anyway, it says it enveloped me, enveloped me is what he meant to say or what I meant to say. And a slimy texture brushed my face. Ew. Oh. Baby rice. uh mr simonka's told or said in an interview on thursday night then it closed completely and i started to sink and then i closed my eyes expecting an impact but instead uh it felt as if i was surrounded by water realizing it was in i was in something's mouth and had been eaten unquote after a second or two he said he went on to say i began to feel the life jacket pulling me up and suddenly i was out again he's 23 his father dell had been packrafting with him uh the emphasize that they were using portable inflatable craft not kayaks near the sand isidro Lighthouse and a whole

other name I won't say a campground in Patagonia. Bahia, El Aguila. Let's see if we can show you some Vigia here. Oh, that's right. Of course, if we got the video, yeah. Whoops, let me turn that off. We don't need that. Okay. Let's see what we got. So really, it wasn't so much

swallowed by a whale as he was mouthed by a whale. Yeah, I mean, you think he went into its oh my lord. Yeah, he went in there. He's in there. Yeah. yeah oh like shite dude yeah that would be so and then watch so give it a minute and then just like oh i don't like the taste of this guy spits him right out it'd be great if he like bobbed right

back up at the bed of the raft too oh that's freaky yeah that is some of the wildest video i've ever seen i saved it for the show because i didn't want to spoil myself but holy shiz that is insane and look he looks fine he's wearing his thing yeah looking cool he's good there's his dad you know out there doing what dads do filming their son's demise that's really crazy no kidding it's like i mean what do you do you stop filming it seems really weird to not to not stop filming as soon as your son disappears from view yeah i would be i what would you do that's that's the only problem with this when you see that kind of thing you go yeah i mean it's not like what am i going to do go swim over there

and hit the punch the whale with my fists yeah because you're thinking at that point you're thinking oh my god he's gone so i wouldn't keep filming there would be no reason for me like well i guess i'll keep filming in case you know something else happens yeah that's wild man yeah oh i guess disturbed angel says you can tell the camera is just a 360 camera on the dans raft good point oh it's mounted yeah that's a good point yeah yeah they even swing it around at one point he's not holding that. I don't know why you didn't think of that. Thank you disturbed Angel. You're like the, you're the detective in the room that's got the cool head. You're keeping us, keeping us real. I appreciate that. Yeah. Yeah. Somebody else said, who said, oh, loose cannon said, or loose

cannon, cannon, said, ponchos need to make a comeback. Let's do it. Panchos. Is that cultural appropriation of me and Brian wear ponchos, though? You know what I mean? Because we don't have any, we got no connection to Mexican culture. Chile or Chile or wherever they come from. We're not going to do I think they look comfortable and warm, but I don't think, I think we would be frowned upon if Brian and I did it. Now, some of you out there, maybe you're a poncho ready, your poncho certified. Where are your ponchos? The poncho is just like a windbreaker, isn't it? Like a, just a, like a...

I think it's like a big weaved material thing, isn't it? Like a serrape kind of thing? No, I mean, then we sell ponchos at Red Rocks because it always rains there, and they're just like transparent. ponchos. Oh, so maybe it's so what makes a poncho? I guess the design

maybe? There are like Clean Eastwood wore a weave poncho. So I think that's still a poncho.

Yeah. I've got a plastic rain poncho that is tightly folded up in the kind of the hidden cargo area of my car

in case I need a poncho really quick if I have to change a tire or something Yeah, those are even called ponchos, right? Those are called ponchos, yeah, same thing. All right, well, yeah, ponchos are already here.

What do you mean bringing back? They're here, yeah. We're bringing ponchos back. I guess as a thing to wear on a Saturday night at a event, maybe that's not, maybe we would don't bring that back, but we bring back just the use cases. Like the weaved, the woven ponchos. Yeah, that would be cool. Yeah, I, you know, I don't know if we're going to be the guys to do it, but we get your point.

could be poncho via wearing a poncho yeah via via i was trying to think it's what you're about to say isn't i was trying to find it but you you found it before i found it that's good uh we're going to take a break when we come back stephen schlichter will be here it's time for his time of the month and we look forward to that as always but before that we need a song brian what do you got yeah this is uh we're going to los angeles for this one um a lot of kind of up-and-coming younger artists this week.

So I picked these up. These are the first two graphic novels in the Marvel premiere collection. Oh, yeah. These are very, like, perfectly sized for a bookcase, the bookcase I have, which has shorter shelves than the full-size graphic novels. And it's Daredevil Born Again and Black Panther Nation under our feet. And it's basically the reprinting of those issues.

Like the Daredevil Born Again, I don't know how many issues this is, but it's got even a lot. A lot, yeah. But it's even got like the, oh, you're not going to be able to see it's so washed out. But like it's got the original artwork, the pre-ink. Oh, nice. And pre-ink and pre-colored artwork. And even the storyboarding, I think this one probably has it too. Um, nope, it's got all the alternate covers.

That's also a huge one, uh, nation under our feet. I don't usually on the back it says what it, which issues it reprints, but it does in this case. Isn't the writer, uh, it's a Dario guy? What's his last name? Dario something, uh, that made born again, the writer for that, the, the, uh, no, this is Frank Miller, Frank Miller and. Oh, why was it?

Oh, why was it thinking of the other? I was thinking of something else. There's another boring series. This one even comes with a forward by Charlie Cox, the actor who plays, Steerdouble in Born Again. So this is something that was announced over the weekend, or actually last Friday. More Marvel Premier Collection titles coming in 2025, including Civil War, Wolverine, Old Man, Logan, Hawkeye Barton, and Bishop are the three that have been announced for 2020. I'm buying all of these, man.

These are great. The quality, the paper quality is great. It reduces it to the right size. there's some other ones that kind of reduce things way too much. This one is like the perfect. I remember correctly, this is the same size as what D.C. was doing as well. Oh, really? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

This is perfect. So the Civil War arrives August 5th, 2025, Wolverine, September 30th, and Hawkeye, November 4th. Is the rebooted series based on this? Because it's also called Born Again. Is it based on this series? It might be, and that I don't know. They may be lifting a little bit from it, but from the trailers we've seen. And actually, we've only got a few more days next week.

I know, yeah. Next week from tomorrow, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know if this one has Kingpin going for his mayoral bid. But it's possible. I don't know. I'm trying to see if there's anything about Kingpin. Reduce Sentence.

Yeah, I can't find it. I read that and I've forgotten everything about it. So I should probably grab it again. This one I've never read, so I'm excited to check it out. Yeah, it's some of Miller's. If you want to get really daring, Brian, get the complete daredevil run of Frank Miller. It's in one giant. That's the super, yeah, a masterpiece collection, I think.

Yeah, that's the one that I have. Yeah, I've got that one, and it's great. That's cool. You know, he's, oh, he's only 68. I thought he was older. Stop talking about people. Well, look. We're going to kill the Pope.

Yeah, I don't want to, that's true. And the Pope's sick right now, right? he's going to do it. Yeah, he is really. He's really good. Yeah. When do we is he? I made this dumb question on the internet because I didn't know. I forgot about this is what started this whole, when do they vote for Oscars? I know. But I thought it wasn't hitting me that they'd already voted for Oscar winners and that's already done. But I thought if the Pope died between now and the Oscars, would that help or hurt the chances of, of conclave winning. Because it would just be so in the fronts of everybody's mind. Yeah, I mean, certainly the Google trend line would shoot up. Yeah, yeah, that's true. Well, anyway, good luck, Pope. Hey, so let's talk about a few things you brought to us today. Okay.

Get your blood comic. Get your blood comic now. I want blood comics. How do I get them? Remember in the 70s when Kiss put their blood into the Marvel comics? Do you have that one, Brian? I don't know what's my uncle does. He's got that.

Yeah, that, that, whatever is called, the deluxe, the, the, the, um, massive edition or whatever it's called. Yeah. Yeah. So Oni Press is doing the exact same thing with a new series that launches in, I want to say May, dark regards by Dave Hill. And it will feature his blood along with a couple of other editor, Kerry Bowlers, and the owner, only president and publisher Hunter Gorenson are all adding blood for this variant cover. Only the variant cover, not the inside. that if people are into that kind of thing, they can get it. Okay, so is it how much, see, this is always my question. How much blood? Like a drop?

Well, like, with Kiss, I think it was only a drop each or something like that. But then you spread that out over a million copies. It's like very, very little. Yeah, I don't even think you can get DNA evidence out of it at that point. I'm not sure you're going to be able to clone Kiss from your comic book cover. Nor should you. Yeah. And I'm sure it's the same thing.

Or it's the same way. I'm sure it's the same way with Dark Regards, but I just thought that was interesting because I know we've talked about the Kiss Blood comic before, and I thought that maybe people might be interested in, I mean, if you're that type of a person that

wants blood in your comic. I mean, we bleed for our art, so I guess that's what's going on here too. I take it the vibe here from Dave Hill is a very similar vibe. He's got, like, metal stuff. Yeah, heavy metal. Yeah. All right. That's him kind of doing a little bit of throwback, I suppose. Oh, some of this

is cool. Holy shit. It is some cool art. Especially if you look at the interiors and everything on this book, it's, it looks pretty interesting. And that comes out. It's Art Yom. Topolin, I believe, is how you say his name.

Yeah. And, yeah, his heart is consistently good. This cover here reminds me of breaking the law. What's the name of the band? Judas Priest. Yeah. Very much so. Yeah, that's that screaming eagle artwork for sure.

It's interesting. So is this guy a hero? And he, you know, killed the demon. So the story is, Dave Hill years ago, started this internet rumor about this Scandinavian, Norwegian, like, death metal band. And it kind of took off on the internet, like, wildfire. And everyone thought that this was like a real band. And it caused all sorts of different chaos, kidnapping attempts, other things that happened. And so now he's telling the story of that internet hoax.

in this comic book series. Oh, wow. That's cool, man. I kind of like that. I like this sort of stuff, unless it's too ham-handed or ham-fisted. That's the way you said. And this guy's a comedian, so it might be.

But, you know, if you've read some stuff like Patton Oswald has done some really cool stuff, gosh, what's the guy that's usually around him with the beard and the glasses? Oh, David, Possein. Yes, he does some comic books as well. And they're really good. So, I mean, I'm not saying that all comedians can write comic books, but, um, those guys are huge. There was a documentary I saw years ago where those two were just going to comic book stores through half the documentary. So Possein, uh, him, and then what's her name that does the crazy voices all the time on stage?

I can't think of her name. Blonde. She's kind of crazy. Anyway, they just spent, this documentary was awesome. Oh, Gala Finacus was in it. It was just like them back when they were all just like a touring. I wish I could hear of Brian Possein that's the name thanks guys oh Maria Banford yeah yeah yeah it's a great little doc

I don't know where it is or where it can be seen right now or even what it was called but it's a great look at like the comedic side of these same people but also they are big comic nerds and they just spent they spent like half that documentary like hunting down comics while they were in different cities and stuff is pretty great anyway there's my recommendal on a Monday enjoy for a name I can't remember so that's per oh comedian that's it tally's right comedians of comedy that's what it was called comedy that's great yeah worth watching guys it's very very good uh all right let's also talk about constantine two yes that's right the movie is real right yeah well not yet uh so good so good i love

some people hate that movie big big fan i'm a big we had a good time with it on film sec i don't know if i would have liked it had it not been with you guys yeah it helps but also you know, what helps is Stamara's freaking devil. There's no better Satan in the history films. So do they get him back or what? Yeah.

Well, this is what we have. This is what we know. Keanu Reeves pitched an idea to DC Studios. And they said, yeah, that sounds like a cool idea. Go ahead and do it. So now they're going to commence with the script writing stage.

This is not going to be a reboot. This is not going to be another take on the tail. It is same universe as that original movie. So for people who are fans of the original movie, hey, you're in for a treat, maybe. If you hated Constantine, then, you know, you've got something else to avoid on a Saturday night while you're wearing your poncho. Well, fair point. For those who don't know, this is Peter Stomara as Satan. And I just want you to

look into the eyes you see there. That is a man who you never would have picked for this role, but once you see him, oh my gosh, he's good. So good. So that movie kind of fair to Midland and until he shows up and then you're like holy shit this movie's awesome anyway uh if they end up making a sequel sure I'm in let's go are you okay I am I'm fine with it well now you can be excited I'm going

to guess that uh we're not going to see this movie for four years at least this is like the alien poster alien three poster except it's Peter Stamara looking at Gennarreeze A little Peter Storm Aramara mouth is going to come out of that one and uh look how vain he is

He's so good in it. I freaking love him. That your friend back there in the chipper. Anyway, so that's coming. And then possibly anyway. And then there's a new Avatar animated series announced. And that seems interesting, I guess. Oh, it certainly seems like it's going to cause a million bits of controversy on the internet.

I know controversy on the internet. This one is called Avatar Seven Havens. It is set in a world shattered by a devastating cataclysm. And I always want to say cataclysm. um this is where an earth bender who is a descendant of cora um has to bring the um the world together and it looks like that people think of the benders as uh um as the avatar as humanity's destroyer instead of a humanity savior so she's going to have the the young character who we uh i think learn as a a girl uh will need to save save the world and

It's going to be two books. In previous seasons, it's been four books, but it's going to be two 13-half-hour episodes, seasons worth. Yeah. And it should kick off in, I don't have the list here. But it will kick off later this year, I'm sure. Let's see, it says, I can tell you, it says, let's see, 13-half-hour episodes. Netflix is doing it. No, I'm sorry, they're talking about the live action.

Let's see, maybe it is. Yeah, it's Nickelodeon that's doing it. Oh, yeah, Nickelodeons up coming a movie fix. Yeah, they don't have a release date. I think they've just announced the production of it. So I'm sure by the time we get to Comic-Con, they'll bring out all the actors for this, and we'll go from there. So this takes place decades after Acora. So I'm not sure we're going to see too many characters from Legend of Cora or even Last Airbinder show up in this.

But as much as people like to debate Cora versus Ang, this new one is really going. going to probably get some people excited. Yeah. Yeah, I've got a, we're a house, we are a household of fans of Avatar and Cora. Oh, yeah, we are too. Yeah, we like this stuff. So bring it on. I'm more of a fan of Cora, but my youngest is a fan of Ang, so.

Yeah. This is, this was my reminder to finally add Avatar the Last Airbender, the original animated series to my watch list, because I've never seen the, I think you would really like it. I think you would really, really like it, dude. I really do. I bet I would. everybody I think people have told me in the past that oh yeah you totally would would love it it's like all right let's finally do it let's add it every time they adapt it to

something else though the video games are all bummers the live action show is not that great the movie was a abomination so it's like they can't get that part of it right but the source stuff is so freaking good I hope you like it yeah they have that other thing too uh Carter what's that other avatar animated thing that you and your friend hate remember the name anyway whatever it is you guys say it lost its way about halfway through she doesn't know can't be cora because cora no cora yeah cora is just awesome i don't know what it is but anyway in fact i think metzen named his daughter cora because they were so into that show oh really oh cool i think so i could oh well see that's see that's where we

some people that like cora they think it they went in good places like stephen schliker here and some people didn't like where Corr ended up. So, you know, your mileage may vary, but I think if Brian watched the original Airbender, I think he'd have a great time with it. I'm sure I would, yeah. Just added to lists, so I'm going to take a break from The Simpsons and start watching Avatar. A little animated shift. Where are you adding the Simpsons?

Season 30... Oh, yeah, you can stop watching that. Season 31, episode 20... Oh, I'm sorry. I apparently just started season 32, episode 2 is the most recent one that I want. Now, here's where we have a divide as well. Brian and I both think the Simpsons has merit even in its long tooth. Oh, sure.

And, you know. These are these season 29, 30, 31 have dipped a little bit. But still, funnier, you know, as funny as a lot of the other choices out there. So, yeah, I'm still a fan. The big dip for me was the teens, the teens of years. And even then, I'm fine with them. It's not a big deal to me. I stopped watching somewhere in the 20th season.

Again, my youngest who just nonstop binges everything. He has watched every single episode of The Simpsons. So he is completely caught up. It's a journeyman. Yeah, he is. He'll just sit there and binge them all. You got to watch, if you watch nothing else, Stephen, watch the episode that makes fun of the long gap between Avengers Infinity War and Endgame

when Bart finds out the, you know, whatever there, equivalent of Avengers is he finds out the he actually gets to watch the sequel before everybody else in Springfield so he uses it as a as blackmail to get the town to do whatever he wants kind of like the teachers that do that

with Game of Thrones right right you get don't do your homework I'm going to spoil each chapter of Game of Thrones by writing it on the board that's the one exactly wow yeah I don't do is radioactive man part of a super team of uh he's not no it's a whole it's a whole different group but it's each one is

very close to an existing avenger like there's an uh the iron man is like tungsten man or something and um that's great uh there's a hot guy equivalent called hot shot or cool shot or something like that's perfect i love it yeah i'm i'm way ever like when your kids were growing up i guess they didn't have access to reruns of the simpsons like kids do now but like i'll walk in and he'll be watching the Simpsons and then it's early season stuff and I'll just start quoting like the next five lines that come out and he's like

how dad how do you do that? It's like that was the only thing you could watch when I was not a kid but younger when I was in college he'd come home home from school and they'd be running Simpsons reruns so how could you not memorize Carter does that to me with she does that to me with King of the Hill if I have a King of the Hill episode she basically knows it by

by word like every word she knows everything I don't know why she knows it so well I know she watched a ton of it and still watches King of the Hill all the time, but really, really knows her King of the Hill to the point of embarrassment for me because I know about half of it. I didn't realize this,

but that episode, I just put the movie poster for, it's episode, let's see, season 35 episode, no, not 35, season 31,

episode 14. Oh, okay. And it's Bart the bad guy. And you get Kevin Feige, Joe and Anthony, Russo, Kobe Smolders, and Terran Killam doing

guest vocal or guest voice work in there. There's the Rousseau's right there. You can see those guys. And then who's playing this horrible disgusting Thanos? Gross. Oh, Kevin Feigey is Chinos. Yes. Chinos? Fantastic. That's great. Nice.

Taryn Killam is Airshot. That's right. That's the hot guy equivalent. Who's this Ivy woman here? Is this supposed to be like kind of grudish? Hydrangea, hydrangeia, and that's Kobe Smolders. All right, that's freaking great. And Homer's asleep. Nothing like a little Marvel Disney Fox synergy.

Yeah, man. Everybody owns everybody now. You can do whatever you want. All right, well, this is great. Watch for the new avatars and what we're saying. Stephen, anything else going on at Major Spoilers? You want to tell people about? Oh, no.

I would suggest that if people like reading books, we have the Major Spoilers Book Club. And we've been doing it for about a year now. and you can join it over on our major spoilers Discord server, but in addition to that, we release an episode every month over on our Patreon page for free. So people don't even have to pay. They can come and just listen to an episode, get it for free.

The new one will drop this weekend. We are reading a, I know it's surprising for a guy to be reading this, but it is a very girl-centric, like it's a cozy mystery romance genre. The series of Samantha True, and I end up talking with the creator of the series on the upcoming book club episode. So that's coming out later this, probably on Saturday. Nice. Over on our Patreon page, patreon.com slash major spoilers, absolutely free.

Whoa. So you don't have to pay anything. Not a dime, you're saying. Not a dime. So like Brian, you're not a supporter of our Patreon page. You can go and listen to the entire episode. In our past episodes, yeah, you can go and listen to our past book club episodes as well. That's way to out me, Steve.

Things are tight. That's the economy, stupid. And that's why I'm giving it to you completely for free. There you go. Look at you doing, you know what? You're deflating. Deflation over at major spoilers. That's fantastic.

Steven, stay out of trouble, all right? And we'll see it. Oh, and drink. Yeah, drink things. Bye. Bye now. I wouldn't. They didn't hang up on him.

Yeah, I did. All right. Hey. We still had to chuckle after after we thought we hung up. Yeah. Discord is like, hey, I'm going to play a little trick on you. You're not used to this. Quick thing.

Apparently, Eagles fans aren't as bad as Brian was saying the other day. And how we know this is this call. This is just Frank, just me from the Philadelphia area and kind of had to come to defense the Eagles fans. I don't think every fan base has good and bad, and we've got our share of both. But as far as the holding cell, that was something that was in Veterans Stadium, probably 25, 30, years ago, didn't go past that. And it was actually installed by a judge who was seeking political office, or not political office, but an elected position. And he later had to resign because he sent pornographic materials to subordinates. So there's a little bit of an asterisk about the way that

whole thing came down. So there's a lot of bad things like throwing snowballs at Santa that constantly get cited, even though that was 60 years ago. And there was a story behind that one, too, with the guy in a sand outfit being a sloppy drunk and messing with the fans but anyway uh yeah no no worse than anybody else that's all had defend go birds go birds he says at the end fly eagles fly yep uh you know what okay i do i do i've talked to a couple people on discord who also rose to the defense of uh the eagles and as a little as a little test i just did a google search i said all right which NFL team has the worst fans and the Yahoo Sports never one to disappoint

Yahoo Sports came up with the what might be the definitive list the New England Patriots described as the worst fans in the NFL followed by the Green Bay Packers sorry crazy neighbors then the Dallas Cowboys and fourth would be the Philly Eagles

oh wow where do you rank or where do they rank the Broncos The Broncos? Let's see. Steelers, Raiders, Saints, Broncos number eight. Okay. They're up there. You know, that seems like to me, that seems like it favors all the teams that do real well every year. Pretty well. Right. You know, there might be some parallels, right? Like, if you know your team's crap, like, you know, down the bottom we get the Washington commanders and the Chargers. Oh, the Chargers are still playing. The Jacksonville Jaguars. The Chargers are still a team? Weird. You're still a team.

Wow. New York Jets, Bengals, Cardinals. Where are the Browns on that list? You got the Browns right in the middle somewhere? Browns surprisingly in the middle. Yeah, the 17th in the list of the Browns. Well, they're always just kind of right in the middle. That's what they do.

Yeah. Their whole life. Buccaneers, 16. Kansas City Chiefs, 15, although I saw another list that put them up near the top as well. It depends. Yeah, I think it depends on the year. And also, I mean, this thing was. the Eagles. That thing with the judge is

interesting. It just proves that there's always some, there's always complications we don't hear about. Totally, totally. Like how I, there's no way we'd ever know that, but I'm sure in Philadelphia, everybody knew that guy was a whackadoo. But why is it always guys in power that are trying to hold other people down

that end up getting caught sending porn around the office? Why is it always them? I don't know. Why is it always youth pastors? I mean, everybody, you know, the guys who don't have power don't have anybody hold down, they're still send out the porn in the office are they they just you just don't hear about it because they're they're they're so far down in the list that they're not they're not above anybody to hold down

under their thumbs it just feels like the loudest among us are the ones doing the darkest shit it is it is true i'm playing off that but yes it is the it's always the uh what's the uh what's the dot protest too much uh situation yeah that Colorado mega church guy always think of him not because he was he was a great example of that and he was such a he just was literally every week you get up and go yeah the gays are the worst and drugs are the worst and then he gets caught on a weekend with a pocket full of meth with a gay prostitute snort and coke off some dude's weiner yeah like you couldn't write that any better like it's almost too lazy of a writing if that was a real story come on come up with something a little bit

better geez yeah it's like saying i boy i sure hate potatoes and then immediately eating a potato it's like well, all right, well, quit talking about potatoes in a negative way then. Go ahead and see your mail. People like to project the things that they see in themselves as faults and kind of blast them out at everybody else because it either makes them feel better about their own failings, you know, like it would be like me saying, oh, you guys in your talented Overwatch, you all suck at Overwatch because I suck at overwatch.

Yeah. It would be me projecting my own. Sure. That's, yeah. Projection 101 for sure. And that, and it, it's just, you know, when it gets into a dark and gnarly place, it just seems so much worse. But trying to think, like, I don't know, when I say I hate heights, what am I

actually projecting? Maybe I'm not. That's a different thing, though. It's not, you're not, you're not just like heights are the worst. It's just you have, you have, is that agoraphobia? No, what is heights? Heights is acrophobia? Acrophobia.

Acrophobia. Acrophobia. Yeah. Yeah. That's a different thing than hating, like, hating heights is not like hating a race or a religion or, you know, people who follow a certain thing. Yeah. You don't even hate AI. I was trying to come up with a good example of this, but. Yeah, no, that's a good point. It's like somebody saying, okay, here's a good example. A professor saying, AI is the worst. If you could use AI, I'm giving you all Fs. And then when he's actually doing his stuff, he has to do his paperwork for the sky. school. He's using AI to do it. He's using AI. There you go. Yeah. Like the, yeah, that's the projection I hate. Yeah. People need to stop doing that, especially when it deals with other people's personal lives. Knock it off. Exactly. Exactly. Before you start pointing your fingers, I'm not going to use the Stewart small. You got far fingers pointing back at you. But, you know, like anytime you really rail on something, think about, oh, you know, do I, like, I rail it at crappy drivers on the road all the time. I don't outwardly do it, especially if I've got somebody in the car. but, you know, people who make a turn and then make a diagonal across instead of making a nice, you know, right angle turn so the people in the turn lane don't look like they're going to lose their headlight.

Right, right. And I always think about it, am I projecting, am I the asshole? Like, do I do this too? And I'm projecting what I don't like about myself to against all these other people. I think it's good to ask yourself, isn't it? Like, I don't think you are either. But it's good to ask yourself, yeah. No, I've looked at my driving.

I'm very, very good. I speed a little bit. I'm sure you're good. I have no doubt about that. I'll share my video, my ring video car cam with anybody who wants to see it. I might just, you know, mute the audio because I say some really dumb shit when I'm alone in the car. Oh, yeah. And my...

Your voices and... I do the same thing. Nobody wants to be around me one by myself, I'm telling you. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. The stupid shit I say out loud. I know.

Yeah, it would be... I mean, I'm so glad that stuff gets deleted after a few days because you all don't need to be here on the dumb shit that I say I'm going to make a left turn here on Padunkus Place. That's right. Unless you all up our page around by double, then we'll talk. Then we'll talk. Maybe I will share my

ring video if you do that. Yeah. Scratch in certain places, burping, you know, whatever. Yes. That's going to do it for the show. One final thing. Blue Sky Reminders. We are all on Blue Sky here on the show. You can find Brian at coverville.com. The way it works over there, if you tie it to your own domain, it's basically a way

of verifying who you are. Easy. So coverville.com. I'm over at Scott Johnson. Dot zip. Yeah, that's right. Dot zip. It may change.

It may change the dot com later, but right now the way my domain is hosted won't let me do this, but my other domains will. So dot zip and I use for that. Cool. And morning stream. Morning stream's up there as well. Just search for morning stream,

all one word. Bam, you'll find us. Really like Blue Sky a lot and, you know, Twitter 2009 vibes for me over there. That's why I like it. And I have all the tools in the world to, like, block things I don't want. I love blue sky, yeah, I'm a big fan. I will always copy, no, I won't always.

I'll typically copy and paste my show stuff from Blue Sky to threads in case there's still people following me over there. But those are really the two places. Same. Rarely, I should use Instagram more. By the way, you see my video of the, I think I posted this on Instagram, the video of the, the cheerleading team for the Colorado a mammoth came out, because it was Marvel Comics Night at The Mammoth, and they came out and did the Deadpool dance from the beginning

Robinson, friend of the show. Visit him anytime I happen to go to California. He says, Scott and Brian, I love requesting covers, but lately, it's only to acknowledge a loved one's passing. Recently, you may remember I lost my mom, and if you don't, you also remember the photo that I sent of my

broken finger. Definitely do that. Oh, yeah. On February 4th, I lost my wife and partner for 38 years as Jody passed after fighting interstitial lung disease for over 10 years. Her condition made it impossible for her to travel, which is why I would attend TMS Vegas with my friend

Jessica instead. For my request, it has nothing to do with my wife, but I just enjoy this cover. In 1983, Tim Scott McDonnell had a minor hit with Swear the next year. Sheena Easton covered it. So that's the version we're going to be playing. As I add to all my

request, Scott, please play a random film Slack, a film sack clip. I can do that. Also, that's a lot to go through. It is a lot to go through. I know he's been dealing with that for such a long time. So, I'm very sorry to hear about your loss, Tom. Yeah, I don't like any of that.

All right, here we go. You ready? Let's play this one. He is a carbuncle on the rump of degenerate theatrical performance. And he should make amends for his consummate act of assenity. okay that was uh your guess is as good as mine it was september 8th 2017 don't know what movie wow no idea some eight years ago carbuncle is what how i call it carbuncle love it there you go love it uh all right as promised here is sheena easton from her 1984 album a private heaven yeah

that's the one with strut and sugar walls that song that prince wrote for her as uhlexander never mind but here is a song that she recorded cover of Tim Scott McDonald's Swear. though the rumours are quite until something going on see the past is the past and I'm not going to dwell but I'd better never catch you some of it.
