Starting point is 00:01:31 Hello everybody, welcome to TMS. It is, what is it, Wednesday, May 14th, 2025. I'm Scott Johnson. That's Brian Ibbott. It is, indeed. And Regis Philbin is going to get down to the bottom of your relationship status. I didn't realize, until you hear a compilation like that, I didn't realize how often he asked people about whether they're married or not.
Starting point is 00:01:56 Are you married? Do you see anybody? You're going together? dating yeah there's a few of these i really like i like that one and i really like when they do the riker or not riker but the jonathan frakes one from that show called or not believe it or it was like that it was called it was like that it was yeah i don't remember what was that something whatever william riker says stuff have you ever seen uh you ever been to a turkish prison one of those deals right you've seen space rocks have you ever
Starting point is 00:02:29 I love that one. Anyway, hey, you know what else we love? We love doing a show. We're here. It's a TMS. It's the morning stream. It's good to see you all. I hope you're all doing well.
Starting point is 00:02:38 We're going to have to keep clarifying that too with every show. Hey, welcome to TMS. The morning stream TMS. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We got to make this clear. Too many TMSs to count. You know, just the way it'll work is we just don't have, we just want to have initialisms for the other two. See?
Starting point is 00:02:55 Right. This is the only one I ever called. Yeah, this is the only one we really call TMS, the Monday show. Yeah, because the Monday show is, it just adds one syllable over TMS, the Monday show. Yeah, there you go. TMS. And the medical show, one extra one on top of that. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Right, right. That's fine. I guess the morning stream is still just one syllable over TMS as well. Yeah. But it's not like, you know, you remember when the Schwed and jury had NSFW, not safe for work is four syllables. NSFW is six. Yep. So not safe for work is shorter.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Yeah. And there was a case. where they used a term that was being used by a lot of other shows. Right. Oh, right. No kidding. Yeah. Which I think partly why they changed it to night attack and now, what is it now? They have another name now. It's not, uh, day it, no. What is it? Oh, it's night. It's a, it's not night attack. No, it's, oh, I know it is something new. Yes, right. It's, um. Merry morning Monday or some shit. Great night. Yeah. I think night attack was better.
Starting point is 00:03:54 I would have stuck with it if it were me. No, no offense to our pals over there. But you had the perfect name. Night Attack's a great name. What were you thinking? Just keep that. That was good. It's better than NSFW. It's better than Great Night.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Just saying, all right, I'd laid it down. That's it. The gauntlet has been thrown. That's right. Come at me, brothers. Anyways, it's good to see you, Brian. How was your day? You'd have a decent day yesterday.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Did all right. So good. Yeah, yesterday was good. Got out on the bike. Did a nice little 10-mile ride, which is the first time since Vegas, before Vegas that I got out on a ride, just because of the flu business, cold business, fatigue, all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Plus, of course, being in Vegas, didn't get out on the bike. Didn't even, I walked into the exercise room in Vegas and looked around. I chatted with Claire, and then I left because I wanted to go drink my coffee and eat my donut in peace. I think I didn't have a donut that morning. I was waiting for Tina to get up. I never did get a donut. I meant to it, the pink thing. Every time I was there, it was like a huge line.
Starting point is 00:04:57 I could never get in it. Oh, really? Yeah, just the wrong time. Yeah, I was, I, regardless of what time I go to bed, regardless in Vegas, I always wake up at about six or five, because I wake up at six here, so it's five o'clock there. And so, yeah, I'll pop down there about 5.30 and in my lounge pants sometimes and get a donut. I think I got two, I did get two donuts while I was there. One of them, just that last day, it's like, well, if I'm not going to do PARs, I'm going to go down and get a, their Boston, They make a great Boston cream.
Starting point is 00:05:29 Do they? That is my favorite donut. I didn't know that. We've never talked about favorite donuts. That's interesting. A Boston cream is pretty damn good. It's pretty damn good. An old fashioned, I'm also a fan of an old fashioned as long as...
Starting point is 00:05:42 I'm not sure what that is. What is an old fashion? Oh, that's the one that looks like you take a donut, but you didn't cleanly cut the edges of it. It's all broken out on the edges. Like it expanded in a... non-conformed way. Let's see. Let me, let me pull up an old-fashioned donut.
Starting point is 00:06:04 And that's not a, that's not a fritter, is it? I'm thinking of something else with a fritter. No, no. No, an old-fashioned donut, here we go. There's a great picture of an old-fashioned donut. Oh, let's take a look here. I love this. Let's see here.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Copy image, and then go over to Discord and then paste image. Oh, there is. Oh. That one looks like it went to a ditty freak out. Let me see if I can find a better one. I have a diddy, freak out dude oh my gosh i've been hearing a lot about that lately um i know i think i know what these are let's uh let's look at this one oh yeah this one you've sent this one you've sent is better
Starting point is 00:06:37 this is more what i'm used to that's more that's more the old fashion and here's and here's what i like about the old fashion because you get you if they do it right you get a nice little crispy edge around the outside and then kind of chewy donut in the middle like that is the that is the that is the donut they make it you know Yeah, go ahead. I was going to say they make a good one there, pink. They do. They make a really good one.
Starting point is 00:07:02 So, yeah, that last morning I did have a Boston cream and an old-fashioned. Because here's the other thing about a Boston cream. You're getting a donut and then you're getting a butt-ton of custard. And maybe you don't want a but-ton of custard. Maybe you just want a donut. Yeah, I want a butt-ounce of custard, usually. But-ounce. A half-but-ton.
Starting point is 00:07:24 Half-ton from butt. That's right. It used to be Duncan Donuts' best donut was the Boston cream. They had a Boston cream that was just out of this world. And I've gone to, you know, there's a Dunkin Donuts by the airport. If I'm waiting for somebody, you know, it's middle of the day. Time for my 2 p.m. snack. I do the 2 p.m. snack. Then I'll get a, you know, then I would get a Boston cream. But the lately, lately their donuts just take. taste like garbage. They're just not good. I hear that about their coffee now, too, because they've really pivoted to coffee and people aren't loving their coffees like they used to. Nicole is the person we need to ask about that. She swears up and down by Dunkin' Donuts coffee, so I'll have to see what she feels about, how she feels about that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Now, you know, Lamar's, Lamar's has ruined me for pretty much other donut places. And Lamar's is a chain or no? Is that a... Lamar's is a chain. I don't know how far outside of Colorado they go, but... I don't think we have them here. I don't know if you do. Let's see. Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Jerks. Come here. We have all kinds of... We got the sweetest toots in the planet. Colorado's just east of you. I mean, you know... Yeah, how hard must it be to expand up a little, a little bit of east or west or whatever? No big deal.
Starting point is 00:08:50 If we can get in and out here, we can get Lamar's. So, hurry up, Lamar. There's, let's see, oh, Missouri, that's why. So apparently, who said, founded in Kansas City, says Erica, Gearing. You could go to the original, you could go to, yeah, the OG one if they have a location like that. That's right. 9926 Holmes Road. I wonder if this is the OG.
Starting point is 00:09:19 Ooh. What if Lamar is there? You got Lamar Burton? Is Lamar really there? I don't know what his real name is. By the way, Lamar Burton, I like that. Occasionally, like, when we're cooking and we just want some noise on,
Starting point is 00:09:33 we'll put on the, we'll either put on Jeopardy or the Trivial Pursuit Game Show. The Trivial Pursuit Game Show is hosted by LeVar Burton. I've sent you a couple clips of his over-emoting when he's talking to the players. So it says here that you once worked as a mailman, In Orlando? Yeah, why did he do that that way? I don't know. But his eyes, like, super expressive, like super wide open eyes.
Starting point is 00:10:01 And I'm thinking that when he auditioned for TNG, they said, God, we really love his acting. He's really, really good. But his eyes are super distracting. Do you think we could come up with some way to hide those eyes? Can we put a hair clip over his face and... Exactly. Just hide those things? Jeez.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Yeah, I hadn't thought about that. I really don't like the way he over him. It's just, to me, it doesn't fit with his reading rainbow or his TNG style. It's just not the same thing I think. No, no, you know, TNG worked because it was like, well, if we increase the amount of power we're putting to the dilithium crystals, it just might work. Yep. What's funny, too, is him and Michael Dorn and Dr. Crusher, Gates McFadden, those three of the Star Trek, TNG, Illuminati there, are easily the ones that have aged the best. they all look great at the age they're at right now.
Starting point is 00:10:54 They just have aged beautifully. And he in particular, just very cool-looking, but the way he emotes, it doesn't match up. And so I get distracted by it, and I can't watch it very long. It's very distracting. Yeah. My favorite thing still is at the Star Trek convention. The first year we were selling the Andrew Allen Smooth Federation album was we were closing up,
Starting point is 00:11:20 like basically the trade show. floor had closed, so no people were inside. It was just all the people running their booth, kind of shutting things down. And LeVar Burton and Brent Spiner were walking by my booth over to some more autograph areas. Oh, no, they were walking past a sign that listed for each person how much they were charging for photo opportunities and autographs. And we said, Frakes is getting a hundred bucks per signature per autograph? Yeah. I wondered if there's I was thinking jokingly, but there was like, there was, you know, some incredulosity in their voice that was like maybe partially joking. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Yeah. Well, and famously, that was the trip where Krusty Space Hands wouldn't, he wouldn't let me do it for. I wanted, or I had 48 or something, and he wanted 50, and they wouldn't take it, even though I was short, two bucks. He wouldn't do it. Yeah. That annoyed me. Still to this day. Still to this day. Well, if you takes 48, then the next person says, well, you take, well, you take. take 46 and before too long he's giving it away that's right that's right john d'lancy freaking cue bastard exactly you're fine actor and i like you know that you were we know that you were uh what the what was his name huge on uh on days of our lives disappearing with from panella or uh calipi bradford's
Starting point is 00:12:42 time machine yeah you were doctor you know where you started you were doctor slippy fingers in the hand that rocks the cradle i remember i remember these things Dr. Slippy fingers. Do you remember that role? He was... I do remember. Yes. So bad.
Starting point is 00:12:57 So bad. Took those gloves off. Not cool, man. Not cool. I can't think of that movie without thinking of Wayne and Garth's review when they said, I saw the hand that rocks the cradley the other day. My hand was rocking something else. Swing!
Starting point is 00:13:16 Wait, did they actually do that? Or is that just a thing? Yeah, they actually did that. I don't remember that. That's funny. um well all right we got a couple things to bang out before we get to the uh the meat of the show we get uh we got a little uh the tad pooly few today that's coming up so some of you out there watching live be ready be our fourth caller today you might be able to compete with us today let's start with this text from set from philly who has this to say so glad you guys had fun in Vegas i'm going to try and make nerdtacular next year glad you're feeling better brian then he goes on to say that was very nice right you had a lot of nice uh comments this couple last couple last couple of guys a couple of weeks about feeling better and stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:55 That lady who sit, sorry, shit, almost said the wrong word. That lady who, shit on the car in Delaware County, PA, south of Philly. I have to admit, I've seen some road rage before, but nothing that gross, L.O.L. Keep up the good work and I love the show. So glad you guys are back. I need my shoot and poop. I couldn't think of anything clever fix. That's clever enough.
Starting point is 00:14:16 Fine. Yeah. We'll take it. That's fine. Yeah, the Philadelphia pooper. uh it seems like that's bigger news there than it is anywhere else other than we bring it up on the show and the sort of stuff happens exactly and it was even pre-show it wasn't even really like a um we didn't share it in the main show just in the pre-show but uh yeah uh yeah i don't know if every local town has some idiot pooping on cars but i don't think so i mean this does feel like a like kind of an outlier for sure yeah by the way here you go um in your discord is uh sweet sweet the wins world clip i'm gonna play it here we go Okay, best babe at the Oscars, Rebecca D'Morne. Rebecca de Horny, more like.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Sweetie. Hello. Woo. Wow, already, already, ony, already, oh, really, oh, reexam, re-exam. Yeah, after seeing her in that nighty, the hand that rocks the cradle will be rocking something else, if you know what I mean. Oh my gosh. You know what? I miss that era a lot.
Starting point is 00:15:29 I do too. That was really, that was such a heyday, you know, Carvey and Myers and Sandler and Farley and Spade and all, you know, that was a Hartman, Jan Hooks.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Best of times, I think. Really was the best of times. I think that's peak SNL if I'm to, I know there are lots of other moments, but most of them were smaller pairs of people who are amazing. I mean, Will Ferrell and chariotory and, yeah, I mean, we've had other moments, but, God, that was such a great, great time. Yeah, yeah, it was awesome.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Here's this voicemail from Mike about French ads in his podcast. Here it is. Hey, scribble and middle, friendly sleet 66, Mike here. Hey, regarding your caller who complained about the yogurt ads, well, first I subscribed to TMS, but a few weeks ago, I noticed that many of my podcast started to have ads in French. And it took me like about a day to figure out that my VPN had connected to a server in France or maybe even Belgium. So if this guy is sick of his yogurt ads, he could just connect his VPN on his phone, assuming that he has one to a random country and he can be entertained there. Or he could just subscribe. So love the show though.
Starting point is 00:16:39 I even noticed like there is a European or BBC documentary podcast I listen to. And when they start it, they say, this podcast may contain ad spots from outside the UK. And then they'll play ads that are. And I think they do that because probably UK people have complained and said, why are you trying to sell me tires from, you know, Bigo? What the hell even is that? Yeah. So I think sometimes these ad networks, it depends on, I guess,
Starting point is 00:17:06 who you're hosting with or whatever. But I don't know that they are always going to be, what's the word, appropriate to the area you're in? Sometimes they're just going to be weird and outside. So you have both, you have both problems. It's like, well, how does this know that there's this tire place up the street from me? And then there's the people
Starting point is 00:17:24 are going, how am I in the UK and I've never heard of big O tires before? Like either way you're kind of screwed. So the best way to do is just support the Patreon. Then you're in. You don't have no ads at all. They don't have to worry about it. Yeah, exactly. Get in there. All right, one more voicemail we mentioned at the post-Amy yesterday. Yeah, she had something to say.
Starting point is 00:17:41 I forgot to say it. So now she'll say it. Here you go. Oh, hello, friends. These pants are made for froggin. If you know what I mean, I actually don't. Ever since you started playing that bumper, I have meant to tell you and I keep forgetting. So I'm leaving this message now. It cracks me up every time because, as you know, I do crochet. And anybody who does fiber arts, like, you know, crochet or knitting or anything like that can tell you that when you mess something up and you have to rip out a whole bunch of your stitches, it's affectionately called frogging.
Starting point is 00:18:13 And the reason is because you have to rip it, rip it, rip it. I know. It's kind of dumb. But anyway, but that's what it's called. It's called frogging. So when I hear those pants are made for froggin, all I can see in my mind is like a pair of horribly hideous crocheted pants. And it cracks me up every time I see it. And I kept meaning to tell you guys that.
Starting point is 00:18:40 And I meant to on my segment today, but COVID brain made me forget. So anyway, so that's what pants made for frog. rogan means to me okay bye okay so for those who don't listen to the end of the show it's this those pants are made for frog it's the that's the clip and that's what she was referring to and uh now that i know what frogging is in the fiber arts is that really what that's called the fiber arts oh bruns brian's frozen that ain't good so am i why are we frozen oh boy hold on let's see what's going on with this this isn't good let's just pause okay all right we're back
Starting point is 00:19:20 sorry about that everybody we basically heard Amy's thing and then we all went away that was great yeah yeah it was the end of Amy's thing yeah you know what I blame Amy really it's her fault I mean who else can we blame because really that is when things went to pot
Starting point is 00:19:36 yeah I have no one else to blame but ourselves or Amy is the person I'll blame all right we're going to do the fastest possible tadpooly feud we've ever done oh really well I mean we've got 15 minutes Yeah, we do you know how it goes on Wednesday. We'll see how it goes, but we're going to give it a shot.
Starting point is 00:19:54 I need you to be our fourth caller, everybody. So if you want to be that person, please let your feelings be known now. I'm going to go ahead and add Donaway. I'm a little all over the place here. Here we go. Done away. And all that talk about gambling apps yesterday. I did put five bucks on the nuggets for the 10 point spread.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Nuggets plus 10 on Fandul. And they lost, but they lost by less than 10 points. So, yay, won five bucks. Nice. That's five bucks you didn't have before. That's good. Five bucks I didn't have before. Good job.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Nuggets losing, but not losing by a lot. Well done, Nuggets. Hey, look who it is. It's our pal Brian Dunaway. He's been waiting very patiently while we get ISP issues worked out. Hi, Brian. How are you? Oh, hi, Scott and Brian.
Starting point is 00:20:38 How's your ips going? Well, I think we're okay. I think we're back in the business here. So hopefully nothing craps out in the middle of anything. else. If it does, I'm going to scream really loud, and that'll be great. I could tell you we're frustrated because Scott has a tail. Yeah. He juts his lower jaw just a little, just a little bit. Do I? It just comes out just a little bit. Yeah, it's like, I'm going to mother,
Starting point is 00:21:02 like, bite my tongue. Yeah. Well, I mean, look, I love it. I pray that none of this happens to anyone else out there. All right. That's all I'm saying. Hey, we're going to play a game. We've got a fourth caller coming in. Let's see who it is. Oh, goodness gracious. I know who this is. it's our old pal Logan. Let's add him to the call. Oh, good. You are fourth, Logan. Let's see if you can answer here. Looks like he's on his way in. There he is. Logan. Is this Logan? Hey, how's it going? Hey, man. Nice to see you. How the heck are you? I haven't seen you in two weeks. I am doing very well. Thank you. Yeah. Home. Yeah, that's right. One of my coaches. That's awesome. Give us a quick tip on time management. Go.
Starting point is 00:21:44 quick tip on time management when you're behind because like for instance your ISP goes down just be a little flexible you know you can still make time for the important thing oh all right i'm hearing you say that it's good to be flexible when things go down yeah good job you know and he understood the assignment well it's fantastic good to have you here logo we're going to play a game brian's going to explain the rules and what you might be playing if you win, Brian. Well, you'll be playing, but he might be winning if he, if he, if he, no, I mean, I mean the video games he'll be playing.
Starting point is 00:22:19 Oh, what he might be playing? I got you. Okay. It's time to play the tadpulli feud. I've surveyed the tadpull on some nerdy topics, and Scott and Brian have to predict the answers that they gave us. It's Scott and Brian's job to see how many of those answers they can guess. Logan, your job is more important than ever because you're going to be working with with Scott or Brian. If your team wins, you get a prize specter. That includes Slocation Paradise and Rune Classic,
Starting point is 00:22:39 the classic courtesy of King Kimizabi. I know nothing. of Slakation Paradise, but Rune Classic? I'm not sure I know what that is either. These are both, is it, is it good? I don't know what that is. Yeah, yeah. I thought it was free, though, but okay.
Starting point is 00:22:54 Rune Classic, all right. Oh, really? Well, let's see. I can't hear the name Slakeation Paradise without saying it, Ruby Rod's voice. Slakeition, Paradise. Maybe I got it for free. I'm sorry. Yeah, Rune Classic is $10 and is currently at 91% on Steam.
Starting point is 00:23:11 Yeah, yeah, very good. That sounds like a very good game. Cool. All right. Cool. There goes your time management, Logan. Sure. Yeah, I've never heard of either of those.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Yeah. Well, now you're going to learn. All right. Hopefully. We'll see if you win. Well, let's get to the game. Let me have you guys both put your hands on your buzzards and give me your best answer to this. We ask 443 tadpoolers.
Starting point is 00:23:34 Simply name a classical music composer. Scott. Beethoven. Show me. Beethov. Number two answer. One answer will beat it. Damn it.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Something better than Beethoven? All right. How about the Mozart? Mozert. Mozert. Sure. The Mozert. Amadeo's on my deus.
Starting point is 00:23:59 You did it. Number one answer. Look at that. By the way, I did not do anything to adjust those scores. 101 people said Mozart. 100 people said Beethoven. That means the rest are going to be a crapshoot. Well, who knows?
Starting point is 00:24:18 We'll see. We'll see. But that does mean that, Brian, you have control of the board and you get Logan as a partner. So two of you can work together to see what you got here. Go, Logan, go, Logan, go. What you know, Logan? I know very little about classical music. My mother-in-law is a retired high school band teacher.
Starting point is 00:24:39 And I remember she used to listen to a lot of box. So I'm going to say, yeah, yeah. Ah, Bach. Right. All right. Show me a little of the Johann Sebastian Bach. Number three, again, within five people. Yeah, yeah, that's everybody.

Starting point is 00:26:57 Dude. It's a sharp drop. I mean, you know, you get your you get your Mount Rushmore of classical musicians and then pretty much and the rest. The bad news is all the... It doesn't count, right?
Starting point is 00:27:10 Which? It matters what this way. It matters what the tadpool says. It doesn't matter what is right. Just like my pronunciation of Chatsky. Believe me, I had so many spellings of all of these composers to go through when I was calculating numbers. It's like, all right, what artists do I think they mean? Or what composer do I think they mean by this?
Starting point is 00:27:34 So, yeah. What you got? Got anything over there? So I'm remembering Star Trek, Jean-Luc Picard. listening to classical music, and I think it was Burlios. Is Berlios on here? Burlios. Burlios. I love it's a great, it's a part, it's just
Starting point is 00:27:52 a nutritious part. It's pronounced, it's pronounced earlyos. Yeah. Is it, it's not Burlios? What did you say? Barolis, is it Baroli? Barolis? Burrellas? What are you talking about? Borealis? I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:28:09 Yeah, Aurora Borealis. Hey, Brian, is any of those variations, on here? Is that on our list at all? I'm going to go ahead and give you one of these. There is no, certainly not the top ten, and I'm having a hard time even finding something. Bertolese is so, Bertolese is so good, though.
Starting point is 00:28:26 It's classic. Sure, Bertolius. I get their frozen pizzas all the time. They're really good. All right, well, I'm going to go with one I think should be on here. If it isn't, I'm going to be shocked. But let's do, oh, it just left me. They named a browser after it.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Oh, and I have it. Hold on. Safari. No. Oh, Vivaldi. Vivaldi. Vivaldi. That's it.
Starting point is 00:28:54 All right. Show me Vivaldi. Look at that. That's right back to move right back to, uh, 10 points to, to Brian and Logan's 13. So tying, getting closer to tying things up. I have a question for the judge. Sure. We always talk about how it's what the tadpool says.
Starting point is 00:29:12 matters, right? Yep. Always is. Are you able to say one way or the other, whether any of that exists in the top 10, meaning... Is there any dumb answers in the top 10? The tadpool did give all these answers. Oh, shit. As a matter of fact, in the top 48, the tadpool gave all these answers.
Starting point is 00:29:37 I mean, yeah, there's no... you know, Shope Lifter is not in the top 10. Joplifter, that is fantastic. That's good. That's funny. It's hilarious. All right. Who does Adagio for Strings? That's, uh,
Starting point is 00:29:57 I love that song. It's in Homeworld, the video game Homeworld. Um, bling, bling, bling, bling, bling. Oh, no, that's Air on a G string. Sorry. Oh, shit. Ari on a G string. What'd you say? Oriana G string. I'm going to go see her in concert open for Katie Perry.
Starting point is 00:30:17 Is it Barbo, Barber, Barbo? Barbo. Barber. Barber. Barber. Barber? Barber. Classic composer, Barbara. Something Barber. The guy that did Adagio for strings, I'm sure his last name is Barber, I think. But I don't know his first name. So I'll say the Barber of Seville, right?
Starting point is 00:30:35 Samuel, Samuel Barber. Show me, Barber. Oh, but. Oh, really? Wow. That took forever. Ever, Logan. Shit.
Starting point is 00:30:44 What are we got? There's a long one there. Oh, man. Not even, like, Barbara did not even make the list. Oh, that one song. I mean, he's kind of a one hit wonder, but it's an amazing hit. It's such a good song.
Starting point is 00:30:54 Yeah. Do you say list? List. Oh. That's a good one. Who? Didn't even make the list. Oh.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Is his name list? Isn't it like a, is there like a, is there like a list? He's Barbaro's buddy or whatever? It's not like a list, but it's got like a Z or something. there. Yeah, it smelled weird. Zist. List.
Starting point is 00:31:18 List. Liz. It must be cyst. What about Broms? Oh, Broms. That's a good one. There's the answer right there. Yeah, that's probably on there.
Starting point is 00:31:33 All right. Show me Broms. Oh, my gosh. Broms, Broms, number 15. So at least, you know, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're picking something that's up there. All right. I'm going to make an attempt,
Starting point is 00:31:46 a valid, a valiant attempt. Sure. To say that the tat, somebody in the tad pool, enough of them in the top ten, because these low numbers had to have put John Williams
Starting point is 00:31:56 as either a joke or believing he is one of the great, and he is one of the great composers of all times. It's one of the greats, yeah. I'll say John Williams and see if I can get away with it. Or 19, he's a classical music composer. Show us, John Williams. Ah.
Starting point is 00:32:10 That's a-da-da-da-da. All right. Well, either, you know, maybe I'll clear this thing. Who knows? Probably not. Okay. Well, that's interesting, because that's higher than I expected. So, I want to say maybe I'll take one more stab at a modern composer and say Hans Zimmer is on here. Oh. Not Hans Gruber? Not Hans Gruber. No, no. He died, Mother River or whatever. mother show me Zimmer I push my luck people did say
Starting point is 00:32:49 Zimmer number 12 was Zimmer almost almost got you a free guest there well I'm out Logan it might be time for us to do you have the chat room pulled up by chance it's time to I mean
Starting point is 00:33:01 numbers like these one of the top is going to be like I don't know or something right I never by the way I never include pass or I don't know unless I unless I say that in the question like if you don't know say I don't know and I'll count those guesses too but not not this one okay uh what they're saying I'm pulling up the chat
Starting point is 00:33:24 they're saying uh handle yeah oh handles Messiah that's one sure and Handlebor yeah someone said Wagner oh Wagner that's a really good one even though it looks like Wagner but it's Wagner I'm gonna have to go listen to classical music after this because I not show you some of these composers. Yeah. All right. Going with the Wagner. Show me Richard Wagner.
Starting point is 00:33:51 Yeah. Number nine. Good points right there. It takes you back in the lead. 22 to Scott's 16. And you're talking, what, Flight of the Valkyrie, right? Wagner. Flight of Valkner.
Starting point is 00:34:02 Yeah, right. Love that stuff. And you said, you said Handelor? Handle's good. Handle's good. He did the mistake. Messiah. He's got that one Messiah thing. Sure. Get that whole Jesus deal.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Messiah complex. Sure. All right. All right. Show me, Handel. Han, Handel. No. Wow. And the Han-Dales. Handel is, if you can handle it, number 18.
Starting point is 00:34:31 Good Lord. Ambassador Domo said, John Tash, I want to die. That's amazing. All right. Oh, geez. kind of running out here yeah one guess left
Starting point is 00:34:50 any correct answer will take the lead away from from Logan but there are two answers left on the board plus a bonus plus 11 all right I'll say that
Starting point is 00:35:04 the check keeps throwing out Pachabelli or Pachia bell Paca bell Packabell, is I saying? Packard Bell? Let's do the Packard Bell. Let's do it. I don't know who that is. If I remember correctly, and somebody, please correct me if I'm wrong.
Starting point is 00:35:18 Packabell did the music that you commonly associate it with United Airlines. Oh, okay. Oh, is that in? Yeah, I think so. Oh, that's actually a pretty good song. And also, I hate, that's just another opportunity to see how much I hate that airline. They're terrible. United.
Starting point is 00:35:38 They're awful. Oh, yeah. And wedding, right, wedding processionals, right. Yeah, sure. All right. Show me Paco Bell. Oh, man. Paco Bell.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Paco Bell. Hilarious. I would eat a Paco Bell. Well, that's a lot, third strike. That means the game is over. Congratulations, Brian. And Logan, Logan, you're getting those games. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:35:58 Oh, that's Gershwin that did that one. Okay. Thank you. Oh, Gershwin. Is Gershwin on here? There's a good one. Gershwin. Come on.
Starting point is 00:36:05 How come nobody said Gershwin? He's newish. George Gershwin Number, let's see Wow, Gershwin tied for With one vote Or one entry, 28th place, or 21st place.
Starting point is 00:36:21 Here are the remaining ones on the board That you didn't get. Number seven, Igor Stravinsky. Oh, Stravinsky. Shit. Number 10 was your Schubert. Schubert.
Starting point is 00:36:32 Oh, I love Strawberry. Shoebert yesterday. Yeah, it's really good. It helps clean your palate but when you're between courses. Yeah, it's really good. A lovely Schubert. And then your dude who, what wrote the planets?
Starting point is 00:36:44 Gustavus. Horst. Oh, someone said Holst in the chat. I should have given that more love. That's surprised. Some of the other ones, Aaron Copeland, Antonin, Dvorak, Debussy. List, made the list at number 17. Philip Glass, Salieri, Hovanes, Andrew Lloyd Weber.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Okay. Anton Reckner Vinzzei Freddie Mercury Jimmy Hendrix John Cage what made that three and a half minutes
Starting point is 00:37:16 of silence you know the silence track Keshi Koji Kondo Modest Magorski Neil Young Ozzy Osbourne
Starting point is 00:37:27 Puccini Rachmananov let's see Ralph von Williams Shostakov Scrillix, Sting, and Van Halen. If they're going to put those guys, like, why isn't Trent Resner ought to be on there if these other names are on there?
Starting point is 00:37:44 Sure, exactly. I mean, you know, terrible. Scrillic's in his famous movie, or, uh, film compositions. Jeez. Give me a break.
Starting point is 00:37:53 But, uh, you know, all that matters is the ending score and congratulations, Logan, I'm, congratulations. I'm hearing you correctly. I'm hearing you want these games.
Starting point is 00:38:01 Yeah. Uh, okay. Yeah, I'd love the games. Thanks for letting me come and play. I still have no idea what makes something classical music, but I'm going to find out. Well, we all have questions still about all this stuff. But the important thing is that you won and that you make a lot of faces when you play arcade games. I've noticed that about you. Important things. Yeah, we'll see you soon. And I hope you know, by the way, Logan, that I'm not at all making fun of your coaching. Your coaching is fantastic. and I just like to kind of pull things out
Starting point is 00:38:34 and play up himself. I know he's still listening, but he's... That's our little comedy show we do here on the air. Exactly. That's what we do. That's right. Hey, Brian Dunaway, guess what? We got all sorts of stuff with you to tell you about. First of all, we did a great episode of Play Retro the other day. I recommend people check it out. Do you like Mickey Mouse?
Starting point is 00:38:52 Do you like the illusion series of games back on the Genesis Game Gear and so on? Well, then, good news. That's what we talked about. He's also on FilmSack this weekend, which is also very exciting. So no reason not to follow Brian Dunaway around like a stalker and become his parisocial parasite, okay? Everybody, you heard it from here. Bye now. All right.
Starting point is 00:39:13 By the way, Paco Bell's Canon and D. That's the one everybody knows. Amy put a link in the chat, but it's the one that it's kind of like the four chords, the axis of awesome four chords, but it's the da-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-a. Oh, oh, this is nice, too. when the bride
Starting point is 00:39:34 when everybody is walking to the to the front of the wedding processional before the bride comes out and they switch over to here comes the bride this is the song that they play it is a little bit of a bummer though
Starting point is 00:39:47 that that's where the song is permanently attached and you'll it's hard to appreciate it outside of a wedding you know what I mean listen sometimes you want to be I don't want to work
Starting point is 00:40:00 I want to bang on the drums all day when the when your team scores and they play it every time they score right like so i guess so i guess so like it just seems like uh what's it like in a modern way like um like the uh oh oh ozampic i can't hear that original song without thinking of ozemp that's a that's a worse yeah that's a that's a much worse example it's it is but it's just like your song is now permanently attached to a thing that it will it will no longer be on its own it has to be tied to you know in this case of weddings. I mean, the guys, you know, the fine folks in pilot, I'm sure, are enjoying the residuals they're getting from every Ozempic ad that plays. That's a good point.
Starting point is 00:40:43 They clear, I mean, they were obviously happy to license it, so it all worked out for whoever wanted it. I'd be happy with that kind of sellout. You know what? I am not above, I'm not above selling out anything that I create to get that. Oh, yeah, celebrate. Celebrate good times. Yeah, it's another one. kind of wrecks now. There's a few like that. All right, we're going to take a break when we come back. Tom will be here talking some tech.
Starting point is 00:41:07 We'll have recommendals after that. We have to play a song first. So let's do that first. Yeah, let's go to the band, Wildlife. This is a band that spells it W-Y-L-D-L-I-F-E. So make sure you ask for it by name. They've got a brand new LP. LP, the album is called Sorted.
Starting point is 00:41:28 And it's really good stuff. guys are from new york i believe yeah new york city heroes uh um kind of a really cool blend of punk rock power pop glam just just great straight up rock and roll maybe if you like um the hives the killers uh friends ferdinand probably along those lines you'll love this this is uh the first single from the album sorted it's called dizzy here is wildlife I am 35,000 feet high, so why do I feel so low? Looking out my window, all my skies are gray. I have no point of view
Starting point is 00:42:34 And I haven't got a clue of where I'm heading I keep forgetting what I was about to say The man on the inner come He's telling me to King come But I can't You're making me dizzy I'm starting to fall You're keeping me busy
Starting point is 00:43:03 I've got no time at all I stopped shy and divided I'm losing the plot I haven't decided if I liked it enough I'd I'm nice I'm
Starting point is 00:43:17 I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I try to decide how to get by But my mind holds me in place
Starting point is 00:43:34 Because what I'm after I cannot capture in this space This new altitude It continues to asin I wonder when I'll see you And what I'll do and say Air traffic controller He's out of control Yeah, we're going down
Starting point is 00:44:08 You're making me dizzy I'm starting to fall You're keeping me busy I've got no time at all I stopped trying to fight it I'm losing the plot But I haven't decided if I liked it a nice Yeah, if I'm like it, I'm nuts.
Starting point is 00:44:34 The love that seems so far away, it's the same that seems so familiar, it's the same that we'll kill you, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're making me dizzy I'm starting to fall You're keeping me busy I've got no time at all I stopped trying to fight it I'm losing the flight I still haven't decided
Starting point is 00:45:15 If I like it or not You're making me dizzy I'm starting to fall You're keeping me busy I've got no time at all I stopped trying to fight it I'm losing the blood I still haven't decided
Starting point is 00:45:41 if I like it or not Yeah if I like it or not Oh, never be given to you come. You're standing in to be killed. Oh, traffic control, yeah. Oh, you got to show you. Bring me a lot of it. Asaparilla, then, please.
Starting point is 00:46:53 Lady, I don't have any sasperilla. Van Dine. All right, we're back, everybody. Who was that again, so we can all write that there? That's the band Wildlife, all one word with the letter Y for Wildlife, but they spell Life, L-I-F-E, so just kind of keep that all straight. That is from their brand-new album. sorted from New York City Wildlife.
Starting point is 00:47:24 Pretty sure Claire sent me this. Van Dine. I don't know. Remember what the context was? Oh, really? She sent me that. You know, speaking of Claire, I mean, really, it's not even a Claire thing. There's a whole tadpull contingent right now that's knee-deep in everything going on Eurovision. And even did a story about Eurovision today in Daily Music Headlines, because this is a year where we're all of a sudden getting a lot more weird tempo changes, key changes, non-sense lyrics way more than the traditional like straight up 4-4 pop that that previous years
Starting point is 00:47:57 had said have given us with Eurovision and and now thanks to the band from Sweden I now know how to build a sauna music their video for their song Sanaa shows you how to build a sauna that's fantastic man the Swedes they're so far ahead of everybody else I love it making songs making songs well let's see if Tom knows how to do that we're going to add them to the show we're going to do a little tech time and see what's going on what's brewing in the world of technology you never know until you click it and you know invite him on kind of like a vampire you don't know what he's going to do in your house until you say it's okay to come in it's true we're welcoming tom in to our house where he will bite our
Starting point is 00:48:38 invite us and turn us into vampires isn't technology wonderful it sure can be in the right hands it sure is it's tom merritt everybody he is uh our usual wednesday guest who talks about technology from the daily tech news show headquarters hello tom how are you Well, hello, Brian and Scott. Hello, it's nice to see you, sir. You're looking... When you said news headquarters, maybe I feel so. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:59 Yeah. Yeah. I was actually wearing a hoodie, but I immediately changed to a blue college shirt. I was going to say, you wear a button-up shirt because it was the headquartered. Yeah, exactly. I like it from the news desk. I feel like whatever we're going to get today is like serious stuff coming out of Tom. Serious things.
Starting point is 00:49:14 That's right. Nintendo chips. Oh, my gosh. That's so serious. Well, let's get into it. What's going on with those? I hope they're not overheating. and ruining Switch 2s before they'd launch?
Starting point is 00:49:24 Nah, not really. It's just the spec list from Nintendo. So chipheads are going to love this, but basically it's, you know, Eurogamer has a deep dive on the fact that this is, in fact, a custom chip this time from Nvidia, and it uses the arm instruction set,
Starting point is 00:49:45 only 64-bit. There's some limitations that are going to explain why some of the developers are, you know, going to complain here and there about it. But overall, it's a NVIDIA-AMPIR GPU, 561 megahertz, 1.46 gigahertz, 1.4 gigahertz, sorry. Yeah, and, yeah. A little bit behind the, there you go. Yeah, it's a little bit behind this, the device from, or sorry, from a Steam Deck CPU.
Starting point is 00:50:18 People were a little bit floored by that because they thought, well, we're far enough along. This thing should be beating that five-year-old tech or whatever. I think they're counting on other stuff. They're counting on their AI junk that's built in to the GPU part of things. They're counting on upscaling. They're counting on some other tricks to get things visually where you would be happy with them and not so much from just raw CPU power.
Starting point is 00:50:42 But I don't know. Like chip heads are going to complain. That's what chip heads do, right? That's their job. Yeah. Yeah. And honestly, is it a surprise that Nintendo, has a less powerful chip
Starting point is 00:50:53 and relies on other things to make it fun to play and they usually succeed at that. Yeah, this is 100% their MO, isn't it? This is what they do. I'm not surprised. Here's what I think is interesting, though. They've always said, or they have,
Starting point is 00:51:07 I shouldn't say they, people around this and with knowledge of the chip and the stuff before they even announced officially the Switch 2, we're saying things like, expect performance somewhere between a regular PlayStation 4 and a PlayStation 4 pro somewhere nestled between those and now based on what we know about the actual raw specs the CPU
Starting point is 00:51:30 the GPU everything else inside of this thing what kind of ram it uses it does seem like that's right about where this thing will land and for those who hear that and go what that's all they've always done this the 360 was the level they hit with the switch during a generation where we were way past that so what are we doing now a generation that we're way past again And it's okay because it turns out that's enough for what Nintendo does. And you will expect better stuff on screen, like on TV, because you're going to have that upscaling and that DLSS-S equivalent stuff happening.
Starting point is 00:52:02 So, you know, it's going to be fine. Everyone just calm down. You'll be fine. Right? Right, Tom? Reassure the people. Yeah. I honestly, I'm honestly still looking at all these specs trying to find something that's surprising.
Starting point is 00:52:18 And I'm not. that seems to be the news is that Nintendo switched two specs exactly what we thought they feel safe they feel safe yeah and there's nothing wrong with safe I say like this I may sound like I'm shilling
Starting point is 00:52:34 for Nintendo a little bit here but I guess what I'm saying is just if you had expectations that this was going to be Nintendo changing their entire course and saying we're now going to compete on the specs level with either existing consoles or whatever's coming next or PCs or whatever, you are smoking the crack.
Starting point is 00:52:53 They were never going to do that. This is always going to be their way moving forward. And why? Well, the answer is because it works for them just fine. Yeah, and it'll work this time. Yeah, it'll work just fine. It will not be a big deal. We're not even that far away from, what is it, June.
Starting point is 00:53:08 What's the ship days? I forgot. It's early June 5th, I think. Yeah. So people are going to have their switches. KT data in our community. We'll have his. Give us a little review.
Starting point is 00:53:18 both of the ones he got I need to go I need to bribe him for one of them I don't know how I'm going to do it it's probably not going to happen yeah swing by his place and lean on him it's exciting though right
Starting point is 00:53:31 new hardware is always fun and everybody gets to see what's going on my biggest beef probably is that they haven't really shown much from the store interface I know this is a small dumb thing but Nintendo for whatever reason with the switch two
Starting point is 00:53:43 didn't have cool store music it was choppy and horrible I really hope that improves here. The only thing we have seen is the UI, and it looks like it's virtually unchanged. A couple things like battery saving mode where you can have a charge to a certain amount like your phone does without, you know, wearing your lithium ions out or all that. That stuff's cool. But it looks like the same interface, which I don't know, man, I'm not saying you need to reinvent the wheel, but it's kind of boring to see it be the same, you know? It's like, yeah, okay. Great.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Yeah, give us a little bit of a refresh, interface refresh. Yeah. But this is the talk in the TikTok of Nintendo's schedule usually this is more disappointing you know usually this is a Wii you kind of situation and instead it's just sort of a like huh
Starting point is 00:54:30 I guess this is slightly better but maybe I don't need to upgrade they iterated that's what they did yeah they iterated yeah they don't do that very often you know they usually go think of the drastic difference for example between the super
Starting point is 00:54:47 Nintendo and the N64. It was radically weird in all fronts. The controller was wacko with three prongs and an analog stick. The device itself looked like a weird future toy thing. It was nothing like anybody else was
Starting point is 00:55:03 doing. They avoided discs, still did cartridges. Everybody else is doing discs. Like, they're always doing these radical changes. Maybe that's the surprising thing here is that instead of going that way, even the Wii you was, you know, very very different from the Wii. The GameCube was like nothing else they've ever done.
Starting point is 00:55:22 I, you know, maybe that's the thing is like, huh, look, Nintendo just iterated. That's all they did. Yeah. That is what I think makes this changed, but different, is that it's not different. But they always surprise us, and that's how they surprised us this one. That's right. They never not surprise you. More on that later. You were expecting to be surprised more, and they surprised us by not surprising us. That's right. One of the things we're going to talk about Daily Tech News Show Live today is the idea, well, in the user agreement, which they just updated, includes some wording that makes it seem like they can brick your switch remotely if they find out you are hacking it or doing something to the firmware or whatever. And today we're going to talk about that. Why the level of freak out this time versus other times? Because it happens all the time. A lot of these devices have end user agreements that say, if you mess with the we can shut it off. So I don't know why everyone thinks
Starting point is 00:56:21 this is a new thing, but that's what we're going to wrestle with of it today. I'm looking forward to that. There's a culture of people who just love to be mad at Nintendo. Yeah, you know. And there are people who just aren't happy unless they're miserable. There's that too. Yeah, yeah. If they're not mad at something,
Starting point is 00:56:38 life is not worth living? Anyway, that'll be fun. I'm looking forward to it. Tom, is there anything else going on today or any, with anything else you'd like to mention on the show here today? Oh, yeah, absolutely. No, there's a bunch going on. I'm going to have a bunch of things in the DTNS briefing. Jen Cutter and I are going to record here in a few moments.
Starting point is 00:56:55 So keep an ear out for that, including an interview with the guy from Soundbooth Theater. If you don't know Sound Booth Theater, but you do know Dungeon Crawler Carl. Well, guess what? You probably know Sound Booth Theater because they produce the audio books, both the single one and the full cast one for the Dungeon Crawler Carl series. And I got to talk to Aaron Morrill. who does a lot of the production for them about how they do those
Starting point is 00:57:21 books, which are back on the top 10 bestseller recently. As they should be. Yeah. A lot of great production in that thing. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. And if you haven't read the audiobook version, even if you've already read Dungeon Crawler Carl in print, it's worth going back and listening to the audio.
Starting point is 00:57:37 I read it in print and then Amy sent me some clips of the audio. Like, oh, I missed out. I need to, yeah. So book two will be audio for me. Nice. Yeah. It's well worth it.
Starting point is 00:57:51 Anyway, interview with Aaron Morton in today's daily tech news show as well. The Daily Tech News Show briefing available in audio at Daily Tech News Show. Nice. Tom, have a great afternoon and I'll see you today at 2 p.m. Mountain Time for the Daily Tech News Show live. We'll see you then. See you then.
Starting point is 00:58:06 Funny about that. I think that they're, you know, the TV deal they got or whatever for Dungeon Carl or Crawler Carl, Carl, I think rests on the back of the success of the audiobooks. Like, I don't think that. that thing gets the traction it gets without that amazing stuff. So it's kind of cool. All right, Brian. How about you want to do some recommendals?
Starting point is 00:58:27 How you feel about that? Heck, yeah. Do you? Let's recommend some stuff. All right. I like that idea a lot. Let's go ahead and add the crew here. There'll be four of us today, as there often is.
Starting point is 00:58:38 And I will now. I need to do Randy right after me, by the way, because he's got to cut out early. Not a worry. Well, what do you recommend? Ah, yes, it's our old friends, Randy and Nicole. Let's start with Randy. Hi, Randy. How are you?
Starting point is 00:58:52 Good morning, morning, stream. I am singing the OOOOZAMPIC song all day to day. It's all I'm going to do. All right. Well, you know. Are you taking it? No, he's talking about a reference we made earlier on the show we were talking about. That's far better than 1,800 cars for kids or whatever.
Starting point is 00:59:11 Nothing is better than 1,800 cars for kids. I'm sorry. That is the, G. That is the greatest jingle ever written right there. It makes me want to that. We need more Nicole. Nicole, can we get more gain on you? Oh, yeah, you're kind of quiet.
Starting point is 00:59:25 I'm putting Nicole up as well. Am I, is it really quiet? Yeah, I had you maxed, but she sounded a little better now. It's not too bad. I'm trying my kids' headset this time. Ah, the quiet kid set. Yeah, it's not bad except for volume. But anyway.
Starting point is 00:59:40 Well, I'm holding it up to my mouth now. Yeah. Oh, there you go. Is it better? Is it better? Is it better? Okay. I was just telling you that the J.G. Wentworth song is the better song.
Starting point is 00:59:50 Well, there you go. As is the O'Reilly Auto Part song. Oh, my gosh, dude. I hate that link to know. I can't hear the O'Reilly without thinking of that guy doing the O-Face in office space. Yes, exactly. That guy has a name. What's his name?
Starting point is 01:00:07 He's so funny in the 2000s. You're talking about the guy does tons of voice work. From Matt TV. Yeah. Yeah. I can't think of his name. But he's great. We love him.
Starting point is 01:00:15 Anyway, well, it's good to have you both here. We're going to get right to it. We're going to start with Brian, as is tradition. And then we're going to go to Randy, because Randy's got a thing. And then we'll go to Nicole and then me. That'll be today's order. Brian, let's start with you. What do you guys?
Starting point is 01:00:29 All right. Well, we're going to going to a movie here, but this one doesn't take place in the Burlanteverse, but it is a Burlante film. This is a serious. No. Whoops, wrong one. Here you go. They want you to sell the moon? Yeah, the moon, the Apollo mission, the whole thing.
Starting point is 01:00:45 And this Mo guy works for NASA? Yeah. I mean, well, no, I'm kind of. He works for the government. Yeah, which part? Kelly. Does this guy... Are we working for Richard Nixon?
Starting point is 01:01:03 Because, Kelly, I will not work for Richard Nixon. I am a card-carrying feminist. I actually have a card. I can't even believe he's going to be president. I had no idea. I disagreed with this much of the country. We are working for NASA to see. sell the moon. Nobody disagrees about the moon. No, you and I both know that everywhere
Starting point is 01:01:20 around us, every day something terrible is happening, everywhere, except in space. I hate that this is working on me. And they definitely need our help. Did you know of NASA's first 29 missions, only 48% have been successful? That can't be. That's crazy. Did you know the ratio of men to women in Cocoa Beach is five to one? Wow. As long as you got us a by a place that's not on frat row. The guidebook said it's quaint. Am I hearing Rashida Jones, maybe? You are not.
Starting point is 01:01:52 You're hearing, so obviously you're hearing Scarlett Johansson. The other voice you're hearing there is Anna Garcia, who, you know from several appearances on shows we love, like Superstore, hacks, it's always sunny in Philadelphia, party down. How did we not recommend all this? already. I don't know because I love this. This is such a cute film. The holidays six months ago was like everyone watched this movie and thought it was
Starting point is 01:02:21 so great and I don't know how I skipped it. Yeah, well, good. Now's your chance to still watch it. It's called Fly Me to the Moon. And this is a film about it's kind of like I wouldn't say it's rewritten history because this could have, it didn't happen but it could have happened
Starting point is 01:02:40 set around the moon landing. Basically Scarlett Johansson plays a New York marketing executive who gets hired to work for NASA and sell, basically sell the Apollo missions, because NASA's needing some extra funding. They've got a little bit of a reputation problem. And so she kind of is hired to Don Draper things up a little bit. There is a very madman comedy kind of feel to this thing. It takes place obviously in the late 60s. and has that that whole advertising, you know, stuff on flipboards underneath sheets of paper that you flip up and show them the ads. But, you know, it's a mix of like having to do sponsorships with Timex and Fruit of the Loom and Tang as well as just the public persona. Yeah, we all love to. Oh, have you not saying this, Nicole? No, I haven't. Watch it immediately.
Starting point is 01:03:40 It is so freaking fun. You're doing right now, Nicole. Drop everything. Here's the problem. Mateo and I are listening to an audio book by John Scalzi. Scalzi. Called when the moon hits your eye. Oh, really?
Starting point is 01:03:56 And it's about the moon turning to cheese. I don't know what's with all this moon content. It's also rewritten history right there. So I think it's so funny that there's a lot of things about the moon. Yeah. I mean, there was the popularity of the show for All Mankind, which I'm waiting for the next season. I love that, love that. Or did we get the finale of For All Mankind?
Starting point is 01:04:19 No, we still have another season coming, I think. I think so. Isn't there a final season planned? I think so, yeah. But this is, this is, so a little bit more background here. Oh, man. Is it a spoiler to say what Woody Heraldson also asks her to do, Randy? I think so.
Starting point is 01:04:40 Okay, all right. The movie, the movie brings people in from the side over and over and over. There's these, like, great jokes, right? These, like, vignettes, and they are what tell the story, and I wouldn't, I wouldn't get into the, don't spoil it. I'm not going to spoil it. I'm not going to spoil it. I'm not going to spoil it, because I do want people to watch this.
Starting point is 01:05:02 This thing, it's funny, Rotten Tomatoes, the critic reviews are a little bit on the lower side, still above average, but the audience reviews are way higher. and I feel like this is an audience movie. This is a popcorn film. And I think it's probably, it's on Apple TV Plus. Okay. Which is why I haven't watched it. I hardly ever go on Apple Plus.
Starting point is 01:05:21 You should. The stuff on there's amazing. Oh my God. It's hard to find bad things on Apple TV Plus. I know. I always forget about it. Channing Tatum plays the launch director, Channing Tatum in his ears.
Starting point is 01:05:34 I just can't, I can't look away from Channing Tatum's ears. I don't know why it is. I think Tatum means big ears. Tatum is like... I think so, too, Tatum. Something like that. What's Tatum's precious? Jim Rash plays a boy, a very flamboyant.
Starting point is 01:05:47 The most Jim Rash character, it's like they took his Dean character from community and amplified him. He's the most flamboying director. They combined him with, oh, oh, shit, what's the director from Baltimore who makes all the wacky films? I don't know. John Waters. John Waters, yes. Dean from community plus John Waters. Yeah, a little bit.
Starting point is 01:06:12 And then you get, like I mentioned, Woody Harrelson as kind of the basically her liaison to the president to Richard Nixon, who's the person basically that hires her for this position. Mo Berkus. I love a name like Mo Berkus. I almost played the clip where he says, and my name's not even really Mo. Oh, you chose the name Mo? Ray Romano is in this as well playing, you know, again, a great Ray Romano role. You get a, this is such a revelation, by the way, for Anna Garcia. I can't believe we've only gotten Anna Garcia.
Starting point is 01:06:52 Who's the other person you heard in that clip? In these little bit part roles on, like I said, Superstore, always sunny, party down, etc. She needs a good starring vehicle or at least a something a little bit more prominent in a series. She's really, really good. Yeah, I like her a lot. How's Ray Romano? He's great. I mean, it's, you know, it's a Ray Romano role. He plays another guy at NASA and, uh, um, I like his stuff outside of comedy.
Starting point is 01:07:18 Yeah, you know what? Just trying to, the whole point is they're trying to fund the, the, the, exactly, the moon landing. Right. Exactly. They, they, they, uh, the first one. The first moon landing, yes. Yeah. So they're, so what they're faking, what they're faking is saying Nixon won that election, not, uh, Kennedy, right? Is that what they're saying? No, no, that's not the rewritten history. No, this still takes place after Kennedy says, we're going to the moon and this and that and the other thing,
Starting point is 01:07:48 and we're going to do it because it's hard and all that. But Kennedy still dies and Richard Nixon is the president for the moon landing. No, the rewritten history, I don't even want to say what the rewritten history is. Yeah. It's so farcical that it's just like. Just leave it there. You're really worried if you don't know. I got it.
Starting point is 01:08:11 But this isn't going to encourage, like, moon landing skeptics to have more ammo. I'm not saying anything about that. Nope. Okay. The moon turns to cheese. That's all I got to say. That's right. The moon turns to cheese.
Starting point is 01:08:24 Great. Anyway, it's fantastic. It's called Fly Me to the Moon. It's on Apple TV Plus. This is the movie you watch with friends or significant other, your spouse, your partner, your best bud, whatever. And Scarlett Johansson's spouse has a cameo. He does. And one of the greatest cameos ever.
Starting point is 01:08:43 Yeah, as soon as I saw him, I started laughing. And it's a great cameo from Colin Jost. Nice. Get it today. Apple TV Plus, fly me to the moon. Randy, what did you bring, man? What's your clip? I got another comedy.
Starting point is 01:08:58 I'm going back more like 20 years. There was a third golden age of comedy 20 years ago. And now I think we're now far enough past it that we can see. A really amazing decade for comedies, and I'm getting to show my kid some of them for the first time. Went on a little spring break vacation, and we watched some Judd Apatow. So this clip is the first dialogue in a Judd Apatow movie, and it's a bunch of L.A. Slackers who are all living together, you know, talking. Here we go. All right?
Starting point is 01:09:32 You sure you understand the terms of the bet, because this is serious. No. Martin, all right, listen You don't shave your beard Or cut your hair for one year And if you can do that, I will pay your rent But if you shave, then you have to pay all five of our rents Thanks for the free money, bitch
Starting point is 01:09:49 Hey Martin, was it weird when you join the Taliban Being American and everything like that Like when you see a woman driving a car Do you just get pissed? Just watch your back, Serpico You never know who your friends are Yeah, okay, all right You guys can't make fun of me the whole time
Starting point is 01:10:01 But Martin, it's a competition It's called the Dirty Man Competition We're going to make funny you until you shave the beer. That's the rules. That's the whole point. You're supposed to be tempted into shaving. Your face looks like Robin Williams' knuckles. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:10:15 All right. Tell us which one this is. I know which one it is. Yeah, this is knocked up. Knocked up was 2007. Probably the peak for Jeddapitow, although we didn't know it at the time. Any version you're going to get nowadays is the extended and unprotected cut. It just adds a couple minutes of jokes.
Starting point is 01:10:35 like that they um these are these are mostly not the principles of the film uh these are uh you know they're friends right who were in other things with them that are brought in to punch up the comedy uh so they didn't even give these characters different names than the actors right so like jonah hill is just Jonah yeah martin stars martin and uh the main you know the main film here is is set rogan comedy and uh set rogan's on my mind because he's all over call of duty right now. I'm not kidding. Seth Rogen is all over Call of Duty right now. It's really?
Starting point is 01:11:11 Yeah, you go into Call of Duty and he is every fool you are. I like shoot you guys. Exactly. No, that's exactly. You got it. You nailed it. This is actually the first of a two-part movie comedy, like the sequel is called This is 40. We also watch
Starting point is 01:11:27 that, but it's not that great. It's not as good. Oh, that's right. It is the continuation of Red and what's her face? Leslie Mann, yeah. Yeah, who's shot Apatow's wife. Is she? I didn't know that.
Starting point is 01:11:42 I'm amazed that this was only his second directing gig. Man, I thought there were so many things that I thought came out before this, but just 40-year-old version and knocked up as far as directing. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:56 All of the, every little bit part in this movie is just incredible. They just found all the, you know, the comedian the comic actors who were available in Hollywood while they were making of the movie and just they crammed them into different parts of this thing. It's, you know, Harold Ramos is Seth Rogen's dad, just like the most perfect casting you could ever have.
Starting point is 01:12:18 Yeah, that was right before he passed, isn't it? Pretty close. Oh, no, it was a little bit late. It was another six years, but yeah, Miss Hill. Absolutely. This is a legendary comedy if you haven't seen it. You've got to see it. If you haven't seen it in a while, it surprised me.
Starting point is 01:12:33 I say what? I said, don't tell me what to do. Yes, man. Did this still have that weird rubber vagina thing deal? Oh my God. For Scott Johnson, of all the other people in the world, for Scott Johnson, a one second shot in this movie
Starting point is 01:12:52 is the only thing that matters. Well, it was shocking because it's the first, I mean, you guys laugh, but it's the first time I've ever seen that in a movie, ever. Like a movie that was like a movie you could go see in a theater. And it was like, Here is a big, giant, full-screen vagina, which was fake, obviously.
Starting point is 01:13:08 But it was like the first time I'd ever seen that in a movie. It was crazy. When did this movie come out again? 2007. Yeah. Okay. So this is before I had kids. And that scene freaked me out.
Starting point is 01:13:22 Like, I'm like, I'm never having kids. I'm never having kids. I don't ever want to have kids. I mean, you know, that was part of what they were playing off is just what a horrifying change. in your life when you're suddenly pushing your cat out of your, you know, out of your happy place. Well, and this, you know, like the comedy of the movie is about all of the things that you go through when you find out
Starting point is 01:13:45 that you're going to have a baby. And then when you, you know, gestate that baby and so on and so on. Like there are all, there's so many jokes that are sort of fresh because at least at this time, we didn't really have any movies about this. You know? Sure. Yeah. I was, I mean,
Starting point is 01:14:03 I like when movies kind of try to make it a topic of a conversation. Like there was there's a really good documentary that Ricky Lake did about giving birth. And it is raw, man. I'm just like crying. Every time a woman gives birth, I'm crying. Yeah. It's just, oh, it's intense. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:30 It's a serious business, man. But it can be funny too because I had some really funny shit happen in when I was when I gave birth to Ava like there could have been a freaking marching band in there and I would not have cared. I mean, it's crazy. There's an interesting thing here to compare this to fly me to the moon because both of them have romantic comedy elements, right? they're both they both could be described as a rom-com but they're not really like that the rom-com aspect is very secondary in both of these yeah yeah it's like uh this movie knocked up will uh you know you have to develop one of the two characters in a rom-com right they have to have character development and by the end something happens uh this movie is like oh what a set rogan's character
Starting point is 01:15:22 we'll get around to it eventually he'll he'll change a little bit at some point maybe i don't know. And Fly Me to the Moon was kind of the same, right? Like Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum's characters were like, obviously they have they have chemistry, but it's not like, it's not more than a subplot, you know? Sure. Right. And like this movie, this movie really comes down to people like Paul Rudd delivering jokes. And it's, you know, it's, it's a classic. This is a legendary. The thing I'm most looking forward to from Judd Apatow is his upcoming documentary on Mel Brooks. I really want to see that. Oh, cool. Wow.
Starting point is 01:16:01 Like full documentary style that's very cool thing. And I think based on some stuff he said on social media about his interviews with him, it just sounds like we're in for something special, so it's going to be it's going to be rad. Well, there you go. Fine choice. Get your 40-year-old virgin. Where are you watching this?
Starting point is 01:16:18 This is right now. Right now it's on Pecock. Okay. When I watched it last month, it was somewhere else. It's one of those movers. I was just on plane by the way i was on several planes traveling across country and back and my gosh the streamers have taken over uh airplanes like you you have all of these apps now in the in a little tv on oh yeah you wonder you knew that was coming though right just felt like they were going to go after
Starting point is 01:16:45 anywhere that you can watch a thing Netflix and HBO and everybody were going to fight oh any sorry any comments randy from he who did predict that one day HBO max would be HBO max again any any hot takes on that whole thing today i just i'm i'm just uh more satisfied now i that's that is the right thing to do and somebody needs to tell uh twitter that they can set their name back to the right name nice uh yeah let somebody talk to milan musk i'm sure he'll do that for us yes just to clarify that was not 40 year old virgin that was called knocked up you confused the did i say 40 year old virgin yes oh my bad sorry everybody i meant knocked up. I thought I said knocked up.
Starting point is 01:17:29 Oops. I'm not here to, I don't want to distract the chat. They already distract us enough. So, yeah, let's figure that out. Excuse me too. Other. You choose, Stephanie. Sure. Other truly amazing thing to me is Delta, at least, gives you the ability to stream live TV, live television to the seat back. So I watched the election of a new Pope,
Starting point is 01:17:52 along with 200 other people in a plane. It was amazing. Yeah. That's a great place to do it. things go weird you're in the air you can avoid it right i don't know maybe you'll crash i don't know how that works randy have a have a wonderful meeting i hope your meeting today is fruitful and uh and it makes you i'm gonna hang out with you a few more minutes oh if you can hang that's fine that'd be great hey nicole let's swing the mic over to you what'd you bring this week i brought a holy crap 42 year old movie the 42 year old virgin what you're going to play the clip
Starting point is 01:18:31 it is it is Wayne's world before Wayne's world after rewatching it it still holds up it's it's a sci-fi comedy from Canada it is quoted at this house the funny thing is Mark's never seen it
Starting point is 01:18:53 but he quotes the hell out of it and I'm like how have you not seen this movie that's hilarious how have you how have you not seen this movie I've never heard it called a sci-fi comedy that's wild to me but if you watch it it is it's sci-fi I've seen it like 50 times but I don't I've never thought of the sci-fi you're not wrong there's stuff in there I just have never thought of it yeah that uh it's never hit me before but this movie was on constant rotation in my house my dad I mean, he's honestly, I think my dad is the reason why I have the sense of humor that I have because we would watch Benny Hill together. We would watch Three Stooges. We would watch SNA. Like, he introduced me to Saturday Live. Like, he really loves, he loved to laugh. And
Starting point is 01:19:47 he was very depressed. He was a very depressed person. But comedy helped balance him and it helps me you know with my mental health I'm always looking at like Randy Randy's always looking for a good comedy so I'm recommending a very very old movie it is
Starting point is 01:20:07 free well I pay for it on Amazon with my credits because I like to I like to use the option of getting like $2 to use for Amazon Digital so I have like a ton of credits stored up. So I just end up buying the movie on Amazon through those credits that I've saved through doing like a shipping day. But you can also watch this on Tobe with some commercials,
Starting point is 01:20:33 which I wish they would give you an option to get rid of the commercials. It'd be nice. It's a cool service. I really wish they would. But yeah, you can watch this on Tooby. It's wonderful. Well, here's your clip. What have you done with the disc? What are you looking at me for? I don't got it. Maybe it's out of gas, eh? Oh, you farted. No, it wasn't me.
Starting point is 01:20:58 It was the chair, right? He's lying. Check the machine, eh? I'm not lying. He's lying, all right. I don't need no machine to tell me that, hey? I didn't do it, I swear. Don't slice cheese.
Starting point is 01:21:10 Here, we take off. I used my clip. I used the different clip because yours was long and you didn't tell me where to cut it. It was not long. It was 38. Yeah, but it was all messed up and it was only in the left ear and it was weird. So I have, that's why these, that's why these two send me finished clips. Yours are sometimes hard.
Starting point is 01:21:30 So I have to, I have to wing it. It's not a big deal, though. I just wing it. It was on YouTube and it was just them going, steamroller, steamroller. Well, tell us more about Strange Brew and why we should watch it in 2025. All right. So steamroller is something that Mark does. with the kids and the kids absolutely love it and he like and he finally told them where it came
Starting point is 01:21:58 from which led me down this rabbit hole of oh we should watch strange brew and so on mother's day i put strange brew on and i laughed so hard and had forgotten so much of it but like there's the that right there I was like core memory just unlock I'm like oh my god yeah I had that great white album on repeat high school it's all I did so so good yeah beer hunter yeah I love that album now man yeah that album was amazing I never saw it so my introduction was the album I hadn't seen any SCTV prior to this so for me that was like the entryway and then this movie obviously was a huge deal for me and my friends and we probably saw it four times in theaters and then rented it a million times owned it on VHS saw it for FilmS
Starting point is 01:22:52 we saw it for film sack we did we did yeah that's great yeah it's I mean again 42 years old I know that is crazy but it really holds up there's a really funny there's a lot of funny scenes
Starting point is 01:23:09 with the sci-fi scenes revolve around an arcade machine and Mateo was kind of coming in and out as I was watching it and he got to see the scene where Rick Moranus his character
Starting point is 01:23:26 drinks all the beer drinks all the beer in the head of that yeah I just I love that movie so much it's so stupid and funny and so yeah
Starting point is 01:23:40 there you go if you want to see Matt Max von Seidow paying his bills. This is a great version of him. Like, he's super serious and earnest like you expect him to be. But he's so ridiculous compared, well, in a film like this, it's just like, I can't think of another good example. It's like, who played Obi-1 in the first Star Wars movie?
Starting point is 01:24:01 Can't think he was named. Alleghenists. Yeah, it's like that a little bit. It's like this serious, revered actor doing sci-fi. And then we did get Sighto in the later Star Wars movies. Yeah. So Weston in the chat says, steamroller question mark so in the clip they are actually committed to a mental institution
Starting point is 01:24:21 and they're in a padded room and they have straight jackets on and so one of the they're mad at each other and so the brother says you can't go past this line and he's like says who and then they he goes i'm steamroller and so he just starts rolling on them he just keep rolling and rolling and it gets to the end of the clip where who's the other guy, not Rick Moranis, but... Dave Thomas. He breaks character.
Starting point is 01:24:50 He starts, literally, he laughs. And you can tell they were just goofing on that scene. It felt like that scene was totally ad-libbed, and it's probably my favorite part of the whole movie. Which Star Wars movie is Max Fonsato
Starting point is 01:25:05 in before we get emails about this? Is he really in it? Is he? the beginning of seven yeah oh you're right force awakens episode three no no no wait no force awakens force awakens brian dry yeah i totally forgot he did that yeah he's at the beginning with um with po dameron uh oh yeah oh i'm thinking of sarahman oh yeah that's what i was doing i was thinking of him too getting him in there duku yeah those guys all cut from the same cheese all those actors I'll tell you what blows my mind about Strange Brew
Starting point is 01:25:41 is that it exists because Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis directed the film and it was Rick Moranis it's the only film he ever directed and Dave Thomas it was his very first attempt to direct a film and they just managed to talk a guy with a lot of money a Hollywood producer into giving them $5 million to make a movie and they had no idea what they were doing and it's just like it kind of
Starting point is 01:26:08 shows that a lot of it feels like it was thrown together right in the very beginning they kind of make that clear like yeah yeah but it's kind of what made it work right like at the end of it all it's sort of oh the whole fourth wall yeah yeah it's kind of bad but in a good way it's hard to explain right yeah it's knowingly bad right like their tongue-in-cheek delivering something that it was you can make apparently you can make a slapstick comedy through sheer willpower right and that's what that's what they do and it's hilarious i don't think that uh dave thomas is as much as moranus got like a big career push after this to do tons of things i feel like dave thomas got left in the dust a little bit but he deserves more freaking credit that guy is funny
Starting point is 01:26:50 plus he offended wendys yeah i mean yeah definitely that same guy this exact same guy i made that joke before rufus de cat put it in the chat room i just want to say yeah i can confirm that came later uh also uh he was amazing as Trevor in the rest of development. I will never forget that role. He was so good. And this is before Rick Moranis wore glasses too. Oh, yeah? I didn't know. Did he wear those for just rolls or is he
Starting point is 01:27:17 really a dude that needed glasses? No, I think he wears glasses, but he does not wear any glasses at all. I mean, they're very young in this in this movie. So I don't know. It's just it's a fun romp around. I also want to, I want Dave
Starting point is 01:27:34 Thomas to play Andy Richter's dad in something. I want the two of them to be in the same thing. Do you know people? We, you know, dig in there and get that done. Does that not, do you not see Dave Thomas and think that looks like Andy Richter? A little. Yeah, he can play
Starting point is 01:27:50 Andy Richter's dad, sure. Andy Richter is. You know what's funny? He's actually got more gigs lately than Moran. Moran is kind of bailed on Hollywood after a while. He sort of just took off. You know why, right? Family stuff. You didn't want to want to raise his kids, yeah, which I think is great, which is great.
Starting point is 01:28:08 But Dave Thomas is like consistently just sort of working and it's all these little bit rolls on TV and stuff, but you just don't think of him in the same way. Like he's on blacklist, I guess. Oh, he's, he writes blacklist, the blacklist? What? All right. So apparently he's writing as well. Oh, doing a lot of writing.
Starting point is 01:28:25 From what I understand, though, Rick Moranis is getting back into acting now that his kids are older. Well, he hasn't done anything since 2018. and that was a reuse of a voiceover. Let's see. He is in, I kind of swore I saw he was coming back with on something. He was in a Mint Mobile ad in 2020, so five years ago.
Starting point is 01:28:47 Goldberg's one episode, Dark Helmut Voice. I think that was just a reuse. Yeah, he hasn't done anything since 2007, and that was another Bob and Doug McKenzie thing. Oh, Brother Bear 2 in 06 was his last original role since voice acting. Kind of bailed, yeah. Anyway, he'd be a good voice actor. I like him a lot, so I'm all about him coming back if he wants.
Starting point is 01:29:08 Well, there you go. Very nice. Now I'm going to bail. Bail, Randy. I'm sure your recommendal's great, but it will be. Ironically, you'd love it the most because you're always talking about feel good movies. And this is a feel good movie. See, I'm sure your recommendals are real hood, but I'm going to bail.
Starting point is 01:29:25 All right. See you, Randy. Thanks. Here is my recommendal. I'm going to play a clip and then get to what the deal is here. but I wanted something that was kind of wholesome and sweet. I haven't had that in a while. And my wife found something that she said,
Starting point is 01:29:39 hey, I heard this was good. We should watch this. And I actually had some concerns before I started it, thinking it might be too modeling, little too, I don't know, too much of that. Turns out, Murder on Third Street. Turns out I absolutely loved it
Starting point is 01:29:52 and will full-throatedly recommend this to anyone looking for a good movie. All right, so here you go. Well, what about you? Who was the great love of your life? Was there one? Yes, there was one once? Hmm?
Starting point is 01:30:15 What was his name? Isabella. Yeah, Isabella. But what happened? Nothing, nothing happened. It was a sin. I left the convent. Oh.
Starting point is 01:30:32 And that's what... It's not easy to live in a world that rejects what you are. Oh, my God. It's terrible. No, no. Here. To Isabella. Isabella.
Starting point is 01:30:50 Isabella. To you, honey. You. Oh, to you. Thank you. Oh, to you. And Teresa. Bless you, darling.
Starting point is 01:31:00 That's a very sweet moment in the movie But I also wanted to showcase the women in this Because they are amazing And if any of those voices sound familiar That's because they should be Susan Sarandon Talia Shire from member Rocky Adrian
Starting point is 01:31:14 Adrian exactly Lorraine Brocko is in this Sopranos Yep she's fantastic And Vince Vaughn is your main character here Now you may say to yourself What the hell is this And I would say to you
Starting point is 01:31:27 Well let me tell you Oh I forgot to mention where is she who played Linda Cardellini Jesus, thank you, that's a Velma, yeah, yeah, Velma's I never think of her as Velma, but you're right, she's Velma, speaking of freaks and geeks
Starting point is 01:31:43 and Judd Apatow, but anyway, this movie is called Nona's and it just came out on Netflix, it's a Netflix original, and it is all about a true story. And the true story, I didn't know that until it got to the end, and then they did that thing where the credits show footage of real people
Starting point is 01:32:00 real people oh i love that and i went oh what that's crazy so it's this very sweet very general audiences thing anybody can see this this is not there's no swearing there's no sex scenes there's no nothing like that it's just like kind of i'm out it's just a very pure family uh you know appropriate movie and the story is real i'll give you the basics of it and then you can kind of watch for yourself. But Vince Vaughn plays this guy who is, works at a car place. He's in New York. He's been there forever. The movie starts out with him as a little kid and his grandma, or they call him their Nona, is making Italian food. They're a big Italian. Not Nona. It's Nona. Nona is how they say in the show. So I assume that's right. But anyway, they, they, it's all about, you know,
Starting point is 01:32:50 him remembering how, what a big deal it was for the family and how food brought everybody together. and why that was a big deal. And he decides very late in life after his mother passes away. And he's been taken care of her because of her cancer. She dies. You don't ever really meet her in a modern sense. You just know that he's lived with her for all this time. And he has this best friend he grew up with.
Starting point is 01:33:11 And the whole thing becomes this like moment in his life where he's like, man, I'm in my like early 50s. And I haven't really done what I think I want to do. And so he decides what he wants to do is build a restaurant, buy this crappy old thing, redo it in Staten Island, where nobody thinks of good Italian food, really. At least that's the point of the movie. Is there like that is not the place you go for good Italian food? But he doesn't care.
Starting point is 01:33:38 His point is he wants to hire these older women who are all known as now, who are in various stages of either retirement or, you know, Lorraine Brockos characters in a retirement home by herself. Susan Sarandon runs a hair salon but is getting older and just wants to help. She's connected with the family. She's a friend of his mother's before she passed. They all have these connections.
Starting point is 01:34:04 Lidded to Cardalini's a girl he knew in high school. And they kind of have a rekindling of a relationship there. Again, it's all apparently based on a real story. And they all come together where Talia Shire is an ex-none, used to work at a convent. And they go and build this restaurant. And they call it Nona's or see, what's the full name of the restaurant?
Starting point is 01:34:23 I forget. It doesn't matter that much. But it's basically... I haven't said Nona's place. No, it's something else. It's got... Like a Nona? No, no. It's got like a name in front of it.
Starting point is 01:34:35 And I can't remember the name of it. Anyway, you'll see it. But it's really, really, really sweet and really heartfelt. And there's just a lot of great lessons in it about acceptance, about not discarding the aged and pretending like they have nothing more to contribute. This is the nicest character Vince Fond's ever played in his life, easily, the nicest he's ever been. Like, it's almost to the point. He never does like the hip thrusting thing or anything.
Starting point is 01:35:06 None of that, no. He's just, he's just a really nice guy trying to do this thing. He's a good boy now. He's a good boy. Unlike most of his other roles, Talia Shire is really amazing in this, kind of quiet and understated. They're all giving, these are all Oscar and M. me awarded and nominated women who are showing that those skills in full in full here.
Starting point is 01:35:28 Susan Sarandum really surprised me because sometimes she can take me out of stuff. She's just so dominant in her scenes. Not in this. She's very sweet, very, very, very interstated. Yeah, very understated. It's hard to explain why I really liked her role so much, but she's great in it. They all are good. And it just made me feel good.
Starting point is 01:35:47 Maybe both Kim and I just go, damn it, that was awesome. This movie was really sweet and nice. And for once, it was just something for me where I'm not like, I don't need a bunch of genre. I don't need a bunch of high stakes anything. I just want to see people being human and that's what this was. And it was a really sweet story. So check it out. Nona's on Netflix.
Starting point is 01:36:07 Big, big thumbs up from us here at the Johnson House on this movie. It was very, very good. I should have mentioned, too, another Supriano's connection. If I can find her name. Dreia Dea Mateo who played Stella or she played Stella in this she was Chris's girlfriend
Starting point is 01:36:26 I can't remember her full name and yeah what was it in sopranos I could tell you she's got a little Trumpy in recent years Adriana that's who it is Adriana she's quite good in this it's a smaller role
Starting point is 01:36:40 but it's an important one and the guy that plays his best friend let's see where is he wanted to give him a shout out and I can't find Oh, he plays the character, Bruno, played by Joe Manglione. Oh, Mangonello. Mangonello is he said?
Starting point is 01:36:57 He's one of those, he's the dealer, no deal island guy, producer guy. I mean, yeah, that's what he's doing now, but what he was in, was it Magic Mike or one of those? Yeah, Magic Mike XXL or whatever. Yeah. Yeah, been around doing a lot of different stuff. He was great in this, just a really nice little role. Here he is with Vaughn. and there's what's her name and that's them out looking at the restaurant when they finished
Starting point is 01:37:22 building it anyway he's that's a really interesting story but the story is so much about friendship and love and motherhood and trust and and finding finding your place way later in life and this kind of stuff it's just it was all just really nice I loved it have you watched a man on the inside yet no no you need to because that to me I'm loving I'm loving that I'm seen older people represented in more positive ways and like the real people. It's Ted Dancin. He's the detective. Yeah, you recommended this a while back, right? I think. Yeah, that's excellent. That's really, really good. I think you're going to recommend bad monkey because of the Vince Vaughn thing. It's the best Vince Vaughn thing I've seen in years. A man on the inside or
Starting point is 01:38:12 inside. Man on the inside, yeah. Yeah, man on the inside. But yeah, if you want to keep that good feeling going of seeing older people like be people watch that show it is wonderful cool both on Netflix so I don't even have to leave there you go stay right there well there you have it go check them out uh you will find all of today's selections up on quicktms dot L I Nicole it's always fun hanging out with you you have anything you want to promote oh I do I have finally have something to Pimp do it oh Pimp it um so Mark and I We do a live show every Friday morning called the Woodworking Morning Show.

And he's talking about Dan Timminsky, who is the singing voice for Clooney in O Brother Were Art Thou. the song he requested was Ackham's Razor, which is an original by Dan Timminsky.
