The morning
Looks like we missed the party
Hello everyone and welcome to TMS.
It's the morning stream for Tuesday, July 15th, 2025.
Got a couple of fives today.
Actually, we have a, let's see.
We have a 1-5-25.
It'd be cool if it was always.
one yeah it'd be great if it was may 15 yeah yeah there you go because then you have 51525
yeah yeah yep we don't get to have that not today not today that day is gone we've already
had that day and i don't remember was it good i probably not it's probably not well no you know
what may was all right i had okay may yeah june was weird july's been crazy i don't know man
whatever july just feels like such a relief to me i feel like i've so much more time because
i'm not trying to work in at an hour two hour bike ride every day oh yeah
It's, you know, so much, it fuels the heat.
Oh, yeah, it's been, it's been 90 degrees every day.
Yesterday, St. George was 108.
Phoenix was, Phoenix was only 103.
Explain that.
You can't explain that.
Can't explain that.
Well, you, the sun.
I guess you can explain that, yeah.
But, yeah, I'm hoping, I'm hoping things cool off while we're in Washington, D.C.
We've pretty much got our itinerary, like, penciled in of all the things that we're
going to do out there.
Yeah.
It's the first time, right?
First visit out there for you?
No, you did paper stuff out there, right?
No, I never actually, never went to the post.
Amazingly enough.
We had them as a client, but somebody else did the training there.
But I did have to go to the Baltimore Sun.
And when we went out there for that, I drove through Washington, D.C.
I never got out of the car.
And it was like, hey, there's the Capitol building.
Hey, there's the Washington Monument.
Let's go do some duckpin bowling in Baltimore.
So this will be my first time actually getting out of the car.
Tina's never set foot in the town at all.
So this will be a completely first time for her.
That's cool.
I've never been either.
Kim and Nick went once just on a road trip,
but I've never been.
Wow.
That's a long road trip.
It was.
Well, they did a bunch of other stuff and they came up through there as a whole thing.
But this is years and years ago when he was still, I think he wasn't.
No, he was in high school by then.
But it was, he loved it.
He loved the Smithsonian.
He really got into that part of it.
We're doing a bunch of that stuff.
We talked to Senator Bennett, Colorado Senator, reached out to him,
and he hooked us up with tickets to the Capitol building for a tour.
Very nice.
We get to storm the Capitol.
You don't even have to, yeah, I was going to say, you don't have to storm it so much as just walk up in there.
Exactly.
I'm not going to pee on anybody's desk.
That's the, well, I would if I could, though.
You're still taking your, like, shaman gear, though, right?
Of course, yeah, my pelt and my flag and, uh, yeah.
uh my my face paint all of it all of it's coming with me oh and the confederate flag i sent you
don't forget put that on a pole yeah that's how you do it as a cape actually oh i put it on a pole
actually no no no i like cape cape is good yeah but then somehow ironically you wear pants that
are covered in the american flag which makes no sense since you know one of them got beat in a war
and the other one didn't i don't know it's pretty wild but you're going to do great they give
jobs to people like you now so yeah they exactly yes yeah good luck to you out there
Hey, I don't know, we've talked to this before, but you know how we've talked about how Tanner and some people have this synesthesia. I forgot that. Sinesthesia. Sinisthesia and chromesthesia. That's right. The sin one is where people can see colors in sound. So if it's music, if it's voices, whatever, they produce colors in their head. They have a very visual response to certain voices, certain sounds or all sounds and voices. They just have a different color reaction to it. And sometimes they're not just, it's not like. It's not like. It's not like. It's not. It's not like.
like a blank flat you know pantone number it's not like it's blue or whatever oh yeah you're clearly a
521 uncoated and more of a burnt umber if you know what i mean right um but he sent me this is
really great i'm excited to show these because oh good he sent me visual examples of the colors that
my voice produces for him and what your voice produces for him nice nice so let's start with brian
uh this is what he says oh wow
your voice is visually to him when he sees it.
It's these oranges, kind of red, orange, some yellow, wavy lines,
little popping explosions in the back.
But color-wise, this is your general zone here.
Yeah, I'm fine with that.
Yeah, I think it's pretty good.
Yeah, I'll put that one on you, and then this one I'll put on me.
This is apparently what I sound like.
It looks like I sound like the Legion expansion for World of Warcraft,
which may or may not be the case.
You sound like
Purple's
Every 70s
D.C. costume.
Exactly.
Mine feels like a black light
Would really help
the vibe
of this hippie room
we're in here.
But yeah,
that's,
you know,
it's kind of cool.
And you know,
and then I see it,
and I hear you talk
and I hear myself
in my own ears,
I can kind of see
these colors a little bit.
Totally.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's weird.
It's weird.
A little more animated
and you're like
more mellow and yeah yeah i think so like even like the patterns i don't know what the patterns
mean um it does look a little spermy in both our cases like there's a little bit of uh getting
to the egg going on there little spermy little spermy but uh the the kind of just general vibe of
this like i like it that's cool i wouldn't mind seeing colors when i hear people i wonder if there's
anybody it's like horrible voice and you just see yeah i'd be curious like uh like a big shit i mean i'd
hate to know what
what visuals he sees
when he hears
the orange squat goblin
talking, right?
I hope it's not orange
because yours are orange
and I would rather
you keep the orange.
Amber is the color
of my energy, Scott.
Yeah, look at this, dude.
Look at this.
It's like a desert.
Oh, it's nice.
It's nice.
Errid and hot.
Yeah, it's very cool.
I think he should take,
he should,
okay, Tanner,
when you hear this,
he should take all the guests
we have on every week,
Tom and Travis and everybody else.
Travis, Amy.
Yeah.
Do everybody.
Do everybody's.
I want to see.
Schliker's got a very
very dark blue purpley voice for me like yeah i think he would be around that range um
they would all have little spermies in them though lots of sperm of course lots of spermies everybody
gets spermies yeah it's you know if we're anything as a human race we're reproducing that's what
we do uh thank you for that set and philly sent us a quick one this is a text and he says this per
bobby segment yesterday he says uh it's harder the cheese the less lactose he says the harder the
cheese, the less lactose. So like your
Parmesan's and
your Romano's have
less lactose, which makes sense, right? Because it would
make them the more lactose, the more soft.
I think so, yeah. Your powders
and your
cream cheeses and stuff like that.
Yeah, I assume that's what he's saying.
I'd never heard the phrase, though, at the heart
of the cheese. Newf Chetel.
Oh, look at you with the cheese knowledge.
New Chetel, I think, is just the fancy word for
cream cheese if I'm...
Oh, is it? If I know my...
I've never known anything but cream
So I don't know
But cream
But cream
Ask for it by name
He also goes on to say
Also Pennsylvania has a big
Renaissance Fair too
I also
Or see I used to love going to it
It's quite big as well
It's out by Lebanon Pennsylvania
Near the Seltzer Meat
Coulter meat
Callback he says
So yeah
The
Yeah the
When I was looking at the list
Of Renaissance fairs
Because I was curious
As to where Colorado ranks
We have the 10th largest
10th largest in attendance, but like the second or third largest in acreage of the actual event space.
But attendance were at the 200,000, and there's some out there that have like 3, 350, 400,000 attendees.
But Pennsylvania was one of those that was way up there that is huge.
I guess there's a huge one in somebody from Arizona sent us something.
Yes, the Arizona one.
And it's a couple hours away from where Tanner and Alex live.
He's like, yeah, we'd go, but it's a long way to get there.
And that's, I think that would have been, I think, Arizona's was number one or number two.
Texas, I think, was number one.
Arizona was number two.
Oh, yeah.
Here it is.
50-acre Renaissance-themed amusement park made up of live entertainment on 16 stages.
Geez.
Arts, crafts, fair, jousting tournaments and more.
Yeah.
And they do it hopefully, yeah, they do it in February to April.
They do it in the cooler times of, quote-unquote, cooler times.
at the year in uh yeah uh Arizona that'd be about 85 90 something like that yeah right exactly
i guess February they get a little lower but still they never get cold uh thank you Seth for that
you can keep sending us those we'd love to hear from you also got a text voicemail about a
Vegas scam or my the Vegas scam as per pertuated as perpetuated on me okay
peruated this is perfect for today's mashup by the way so anything we screw up today
They'll be ironic later.
Anyway, here it is.
Let's see what it has to say.
Hey, this is a message for Scotty Too Hottie
in regards to the salesperson
that pestered you in Vegas.
These types of scams are extremely prevalent
in all of the hotels,
especially the more expensive ones.
They often sell beauty products
you've never heard of at extremely high prices,
but they're actually just generic
and even watered down cheap products.
They avoid people who are young and pretty
and will target those who are older,
and may have insecurities.
They'll break you down and try to convince you they have that miracle product that will cost you thousands.
And once you're in their store, they make it very difficult to leave.
Often blocking your exits and gilting you into staying so they can fix you.
Many of them are sadly foreigners on a work visa and can only stay in the country if they hit their quota
and often live in group housing.
Hotels know it's a scam, but the people pulling the strings pay the money.
high rent and so they get to stay all right so first of all
this is borderline sally struthers telling us about the starving kids in Ethiopia
like the the AI voice that he chose I keep waiting for
uh uh Sarah McLaughlin's in the arms of the angels to start playing
yeah that was uh that was definitely a choice um
some of them don't get to leave the country unless they hit their quota
it's pretty dark stuff yeah however um
this was the lady that was going ma'am ma'am yes and now that I have a little yeah it's just to me it's like the time I went to um what do you call in Mexico Tijuana I went to Tijuana and it was that that's all that is there mm-hmm it is yeah that's the what he just described that's what you do in Tijuana and I I really hated it then yes but I was also like all right well when in Tijuana it's either this or a donkey show I think we'll do this you know right so I just don't think
Good, good choice between the two.
I'm not, I'll be honest, Brian.
I'm not actually even sure what that is.
I think I kind of know.
Isn't it just somebody doing nasty things with a donkey or horse?
A donkey and a lady.
Yeah, lady and a donkey.
Okay.
And then do people...
Don't even ask about a dog and pony show.
Do people, like, gather around and like watch this in little crowds and stuff?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it's like a spectator.
This is, you know, I'm going on the assumption, too, just based on the signage outside.
my former boss at the software company
because we went to the San Diego Union Tribune
to do like a week's worth of training
and he said
hey let's go down to Tijuana
I'm like oh yeah sure cool so
you know this is one of those times
it's like looking back we had a really nice rental car
we even had I think our computer equipment in there
because we came right from the
right from the newspaper
might have been before we checked into the hotel or after we checked out or something
and you know just parked it easily could have had that car stolen all of our stuff stolen
whatever and then walked through had some incredible Mexican food like went to you know
a nice little rooftop patio place and had Mexican food and drinks and stuff like that
I'd be terrified to eat there I just would be so paranoid yeah again this was in the 90s
I would I would be terrified these days everything that we'd
I'd be terrified.
I'd be like, yeah, I don't see any reason to go to Tijuana now.
No, I wouldn't go now.
In 93, 94, I felt like we were, it was a kind of felt like a little bit of a safer time.
Well, I'm mostly thinking about like what, like street food worms.
Oh, where's it coming for?
Yeah, right.
I just don't trust food, street food of any kind.
I don't like it here.
I don't like it.
Unless it's like a really, it was an actual restaurant.
We weren't eating out of, sure.
Off of somebody's spread out tarp on the ground.
Sure.
That's good.
Don't be doing that.
I would like that's why I can't go to I don't want to ever go to India because I can't
I won't be able to eat the whole time I'm there I know there are places obviously they
cater to some you know some level of tourism but right videos just see it people just
sloping stuff on the streets covered in flies like here you go putting a pita and
and be thankful for it freaking out of food trucks are fine those are basically
I even have American food trucks all the time but I don't think I would eat out of a
Tijuana food truck no I wouldn't trust it I'm sure the the standards are much more
Lex for food safety and stuff like that and cleanliness practices and things like that.
Did you get caught? Did you get busted or busted? Did you get roped into buying anything stupid? Because I did.
No, you know, I really didn't. I don't think I'm trying to think of what I might have brought back. I've
definitely been roped into buying stupid things on trips. Tina and I honeymooned in at a resort in
Prada Vallada and
well we did a cruise
and then had a stop
in Puerto Vallada, a full day stop
at a beach or something and
I think I bought some
I don't know maybe
silver jewelry for Tina
that is like you know looking back
is like what on earth
like somebody walking down the beach
carrying silver jewelry what the hell
there's zero chance that that's anything
valuable or anything good
just fake silver I guess
Yeah, I bought a big, big heavy chess set, marble chess set.
Oh, yeah, that's great until you have to carry it back.
Yeah, which I literally, when we drove it back, we had it in the hotel.
But then I was like, I was like, I'm not flying this home.
This thing weighs more than my baggage.
It's exactly.
I would actually have to split this up between my bags just to keep them under the weight limit.
Yeah.
But I did talk the dude down to about 16 bucks from like 30.
Because you can haggle with everybody.
There's all haggle time.
I did get a deal, but it was a waste of 16 bucks.
Never brought it home.
I did play chess.
I played chess on a one time with Kim and then.
In the hotel room.
Yeah.
I got talked into it.
This guy was...
Yeah, there's silver-tongued, like silver-tonged doubles.
One of these trips, so we went with crazy neighbors to Vegas.
Me and Tina and David and Kerry.
And I'm trying to remember what the trip reason for the trip was.
But...
The road trip or airplanes or what did you do?
We flew out there.
um okay yeah we flew and i'm just trying to remember because i've done a lot of road trips with them
but not not with tina i think the four of us flew and um one of the first things you know dave and i
go and we play crap somewhere and we send them to go shopping and they they uh mrs crazy neighbor
buys something from the vinevira one of these ma'am ma'am ma'am ma'am you know and she bought
something from the vinevara i think tina did as well the two of them bought it and immediately
like, you know, they were sold on this, well, you have to buy, you buy this serum and
then you buy this lotion and you need to use the two together. And then we put you on this
recurring subscription. So give us your address and we'll, you know, you'll, you'll buy
the serum every month and you can use the same lotion, but we'll replenish your serum every
month for, for this, you know, X amount. Sure. And almost immediately after they'd come back
to the craps table, they had buyer's regret, buyer's remorse. Um, and we had,
had dinner to go to, oh yeah, we were seeing
Penn and Teller and going to
the Gordon Ramsey's
Steakhouse. That was one of the things on this
trip. Mrs. Crazy Neighbor
got so high that she slept
during Penn and Teller but only woke up when it was time
to applaud. So she was seriously like
this. She had her head
down and then the crowd
would applaud and she would go
and then her head would go back down.
Oh, that's great.
Mr. Crazy Amper was
so ticked off at her because, you know, like the money he spent on tickets and the Grunerams
a Steakhouse beforehand and she was too high to enjoy any of it.
That's not a cheap night at all, man.
It is not, no.
So the next day we're like, well, there's a Vinevira in this other hotel that's near where
we're going.
We'll just take it back.
Yeah.
And we go and it's like, oh, no, this Vinevira is only open on Monday, Wednesdays, and
Fridays.
It's Tuesdays.
You need to go to this other one.
So we, one almost full day of our vacation.
And not the evening, but like from breakfast until it was time to start figuring out what we're doing for dinner, was spent going up and down the strip to various hotels looking for a vinevira that had the authority.
Only one of them has the authority to take it back and give you a refund.
Really?
Yes.
Yes.
All of those stores, oh, I'm sorry, no, this is just a franchisee.
We can't do refunds.
Even though you bought it here, you need to go to the specific location where the manager is.
yeah that's some harsh shit right there is what that is wasted an entire day of course you know
me and crazy neighbor had drinks everywhere we went but uh yeah it was like a just a drinking
tour to you guys but it was a drinking tour for the two of us but uh it was you know now it's
like we we uh it's like the exorcist whenever tina and i walk by someplace that's got a vine
vera uh stand we yeah right you can feel the heat it's like a big old uh kryptonite stick
being named yeah exactly
yeah wow well i will never go
into one of those places i just refuse yeah don't do it
don't do it can't do it uh okay quick note
kevin and noelle her name was
noel
her and kevin uh k t data
were at the movie the other day and they brought me
a couple things one is a device i'm reviewing
uh for about two weeks until i give it back to him
uh the other is a big bag of these like treats and stuff
and one of them are these cracklin salted
cracklins that I don't know if they were from what I don't know if these are like
native to somewhere I don't know what the deal is with these things but I never had them
before oh my gosh I thought I would dip in there and go oh he's all right these have a nice
flavor I'll eat three or four of these hey everybody come get these I tasted one or two of
those I went full gallum on those dude nice they're so good they're gone they're gone
I ate them all it's embarrassing how quickly I ate them I probably
did myself no favors on my diet plan.
I don't know what's a, what cracklins are beef, I think, in this case, or these were beef-based
cracklins or something. Like, they look like what the, the, it's like a fried snack, right,
that like, try to think like you get those, not pork rinds, but things kind of like a denser
version of pork rinds. Yes, that's a perfect way of saying it. The density is what makes
a cracklin, I think. And there are lots of.
different kinds, and they all look a little different from each other.
I'm trying to find, like, a picture.
Yeah, there's not one that's like...
He gave us some, um, uh, these, these tube in TMS Vegas, he gave us each Ziplac bags with
three, I think, in each one of these tubes of, of Japanese snacks.
They were like corn, they were almost like a, a big fat Cheeto.
Oh.
Those things were freaking awesome.
Oh, my gosh.
That sounds great.
everything he's ever brought me has been good
so don't stop first of all
second of all I want more bags of that
I gotta find where those are
one of those swimming pool tubes
but it was a big long Cheeto or something
yeah they were really good
I like and find these pork ones so I'm having trouble
finding it but they were
oh those are good okay KT Day says
those are the cheap snacks that apologize
for raising their price after 100 years we covered
that story right it was the one where
you know they felt bad because they raised the price
five cents or something that's right
those things man I need to
go to the H-Mart, the Asian market over here and get more of those. Those are so freaking good.
That's a good point. I could just get these at H-Mart. Yeah. I got to get more because they hooked me on those. I ate them all in the car. It was embarrassing.
And I'd already pounded down a bunch of popcorn and we had, you know, sandwiches before the movie and they just kept eating. They were so good. Anyway, shout out to them. They're great.
My chat with Ethan and I had yesterday went up. Yep. You want to hear about a kid in his cool book he wrote? Here it is right.
right here, Cessuahanick is the name of the book.
His full name is Robert Ethan White, but he goes by Ethan.
You won't believe his kid's only 18 when you hear him talk.
He is an old soul.
That's cool.
Always has been.
I saw the video up in my recommended feed or my subscription feed because I subscribe, obviously.
So I need to watch that after the show today.
Yeah, definitely check it out.
I put it up on audio forum on all the, well, TMS feed, Monday Show feed,
and then all associated Patreon's also got it.
YouTube has it.
So, easy to find, easy to get.
I highly recommend it.
I think it was really a fun chat in a conversation.
I'm really proud of that kid, and I think he's going places.
There's going to be a day where I'm going to be like,
Ethan, throw some of those millions my way.
Remember when?
Remember your beginnings, humble beginnings.
Anyway, it was really fun.
So go check that out.
And thanks for all the nice comments since then.
He's a great kid and deserves it.
All right.
We are going to do some news.
to prepare for the coming of the great TV's Travis a little bit later.
Great.
So to make that happen, we do this.
Brian, it's time for the news, and it's brought to us by.
Brought to you by Daily Music Headlines.
Today you can find out about the new album from Survivor Winner Poverty Shallow, or the new song.
It's really not.
I mean, it's really a little crap recording that she made, but she does have a new book that's got the same name as her song.
More importantly, you'll find out about the music stolen out of Beyonce's choreographer's car.
Oh, shit.
A whole bunch of music and show plans, set lists, all that stuff.
Who keeps all this stuff in their car and just leaves it?
I guess I just told a story about how my boss and I did in Tijuana.
And then you'll also find out about a New York City musician who used death metal vocals to scare off a stalker.
Oh, my.
Yes.
And it worked.
I think it would work.
Sure.
I found out all that stuff, plus a bunch of real news there at daimusikheadlines.com.
I saw the best deterrent for being attacked the other day.
It was a video of two guys squaring off in a fight.
And apparently it was real, but I think set up as a bit of a prank, but the fight, the actual argument was real.
And it started to become like, it looks like they were going to go to fists there.
And the way the one guy got the other guy to leave was he just stripped everything off.
And all he was left with was one of those, like the Borat thong, looking to.
thing yeah oh yeah the one the long ones yeah and that guy the other guy just
freaking ran as hard I'm sure that would do it for me too like okay you know what you win
um you want to know how to defuse a situation show up in your thong that'll get you
get them any time success uh we've got more food to talk about chef's food decoration at a
chinese preschool poisoned 233 children oh no they ate those cracklins yeah they didn't have
More than 200 children being treated in hospitals for lead poisoning in Northwest China after school chefs used an inedible plant or paint, sorry.
Paint.
Yeah.
I don't know as a plant to decorate their food.
Eight people have been arrested after tests showed that food samples from the kindergarten of Shenzhou City in the Gonsu province had lead levels that were 2,000 times over the national safety limit.
They painted the food with lead paint.
Jeez, Louise.
They're painting the foods.
They're painting the dogs.
hide your kids, hide your wife, too late.
Yeah, too late, everybody.
In total, 233 of these kids from this kindergarten had high levels of lead in their blood
after eating steamed red date cake and sausage corn bun.
Yes, it was a really steamed blue date cake, but they painted it red.
There you go.
Paint it red.
The school principal asked the kitchen staff to buy the paint online, according to a police statement.
But after the children fell ill, officers had to search for the supplies which had been hidden.
The paint was clearly marked as an edible.
they used it anyway.
Boy, they really screwed up here.
They have footage from their closed caption
television cameras in the kitchen,
which showed staff adding paint pigment to the food.
You dipshits.
No kidding.
Apparently it really was like to make it more red,
the red date cake more red, I guess.
Yeah, I don't think is, you know what?
I'm just going to say, I don't think it was worth it in the end.
I think you made a mistake.
Yeah, I think so.
Yes, I feel like it's a pretty safe, safe thing to say
that I think you screwed up.
Yeah, I'm going to make.
the obvious statement that you guys screwed up there's probably going to be some jail time for some
of you and i wouldn't want to go to a chinese jail because everything we're told here sounds terrible
we're kids i hope you're able to barf it out and poop it out okay yeah oh 10 days 10 days of
treatment and medication for the kids damn so with that much lead exposure i wonder if that's a
lifelong potential issue that's a lot dude that is a lot lead gosh dang it i mean i know they're
They're famous, well, famous, but famously Chinese toys painted and lead that we used to get, or buy over here.
We had to, I guess that all ended, though.
I don't know, I don't know.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, we, no more lead paint, imported, imported products.
It's probably good.
Yes.
It's a probably a good thing.
I have a bunch of Marvel characters that are made out of lead from.
Ooh, you should lick one on the air.
Just lick it.
Yeah.
I will not do that.
But, yeah.
I mean, lead, if they're lead.
lead it's only when it if it's in a solid form it's okay though right like if you have lead
figurines i don't think that's a big deal or is it i don't know how that no because i don't think
it's the paint i mean if i broke off one of the fingers yeah because they bend you know if you
if you try you can make them bend like um it's a pliable metal pliable metal but um uh if
if yeah i think if i broke off one of the fingers and ate it yeah it'd be bad but the paint on
it i'm sure i'm sure they're not using lead paint on the lead figures yeah probably i assume not
I hope not.
Yeah.
I hope you don't have a little lead nightmare in your basement there that you didn't know about.
That's hope not.
But fortunately, I'll have little kids tasting Magneto's fingertips.
Oh, I forgot to tell you.
And I meant to tell you this.
I wanted to know.
I've tasted switch carts before.
I know how gross they are.
But I wanted to see what an actual little kid thought because they're the ones we're trying to help with this.
Oh, yeah.
So I let Ramona, who's the youngest, who's definitely putting stuff in her mouth all the time.
She's that age, taste one.
and then the sour face on that kid.
She will now never trust you for anything.
Here, taste this.
Taste this.
What do you think?
Yeah, I'm going to, I'm probably ought to film it because it was really funny.
Her parents laughed, so I'm okay.
I'm safe.
By the way, Nick's still doing some minis.
He's starting on this little guy, this little.
Oh, very cool.
Yeah.
I think it's just base painted right now.
Yeah.
But he's going to go nuts with it.
I wish I had.
He needs to get you involved in doing that stuff.
I would love to do more of that sort of thing.
I'm not much of a,
I get, you know what it's like tattoos a little bit for me?
This is a weird thing to say, but I, I just get nervous with a commitment.
Well, it's like a, it's so final.
Like whatever, if I was painting that thing, it'd be like, all right, you're going to paint that and that's it.
And when you're done, you're, I know I can paint over it or whatever.
Yeah, exactly.
That is the thing to always remember.
It's like you, you know, the, you paint it.
If you mess something up, if you mess a little thing up, you just paint over that little thing.
If you mess the whole thing up, you feel like, just take some primer and reprim it.
It's such a thin layer of paint to cover it, to make it opaque again that, or to cover up any mistakes, that there's nothing, in doing minis, it's, it's, nothing's permanent.
It's an irrational fear.
I think it's based mostly on my hatred of watercolor way, way, way, way back in the day.
So when I was young and they would have us do watercolor, I felt like I was playing with the laws of chaos.
and it was like gloop and it would go blah which is the point it's supposed to be kind of wild and weird and hard to unruly i never could i couldn't ken with it as they say what i hate with watercolor is if you're working with too thin a um a cold press board or like a you know the um the can not canvas but the paper you're painting on that thick paper stuff yeah it way it warps right and then the watercolor collects in the recesses of that warping it's like well this isn't at all what i wanted
And that's why I hate, I hate, I hate watercolor.
Yeah.
I don't, I don't like it.
No, I don't like it.
No, sir, I don't.
And the people who are good with it, I think you're a, you're masters.
I bow to you.
I see Alex Ross and I think no one is as cool as you are, dude.
You somehow make comic books out of watercolor.
Out of water color.
What the F is that, man?
I mean, he could do, he'd probably do any medium he wants, but he's a genius.
But for me, it's like, hey, do you want to ruin everything?
Here's a brush.
Go ahead and ruin everything.
Have fun.
Let's do this story.
Medical, and we're still in the medical business here.
Medical Clinic pleads for a stop to unsolicited urine samples.
Quit sending us with peace and love.
Quit sending us these.
We'll throw it in the bin.
If you send any urine samples to get signed, they're going in the bin.
In the bin, with peace and love.
They'll go in the bin.
Medical Clinic in Scotland is asking local residents to stop.
bringing in, quote, inappropriate or unsolicited urine samples.
Yarr, he's a pirate now.
The saltoon surgery in Frazierboro, brough.
Frazier brough.
Frazier brough in Aberdeenshire said on Saturday social media that doctors and medical staff at the clinic had been inundated with a high volume of unsolicited urine.
I have a sign of my door that says don't bring your solicited.
So unsolicited urine.
Often in non-medical household containers,
instead of sterile sample containers.
So like somebody's bringing in their...
Tupperware and Ziplock bag.
Make sure you burp it before you turn it into the doctor there.
Please be advised that we are no longer able to accept urine samples
unless they have been specifically requested by the practice.
As the post, the change is necessary due to the high volume of inappropriate or unsolicited samples being submitted,
which affects our ability to...
Provide timely care to all patients, unquote.
Who? Yeah. I mean, what, what, um, what, um, what are you looking for when you drop off a container of urine at the facility?
Like, do you, do you put on the note, could you test this for gonorrhea?
Yeah. Like, I don't know what, that's the thing they don't even get into here.
Why are you all going, are you getting paid for these? Or do you think you're getting paid for these or something or, I don't know.
Yeah, it doesn't, uh, it really never gets into it.
It's, yeah, because normally, I assume you would, if you need, if this clinic was doing tests, you know, urinary tests, these doctors are working on, I don't know what, they could solicit them and say, hey, we're looking for donations of a broad range or whatever, come at such and such time, we will, you'll pee in a cup and send you on your way with 10 shillings or whatever the hell they pay up there.
And then that makes sense to me, but me just showing up down here at the freaking IHC quick, quick heel, or.
whatever it's called.
Yeah, the urgent care.
I don't show up there and go,
Hey, you guys, in this sippy cup,
I got a lot of my pee.
Exactly.
Unless you, like,
it hurt when this came out.
Can you examine it?
It seemed a little thick.
I don't know what's going on.
There's floaties in there.
What's going on?
There's actually squirming things in this.
Is that bad?
Yeah, I think what you do is you go to your doctor first.
You tell him about these symptoms,
and then he may ask for a sample.
He may solicit a sample.
Exactly.
And he will give you a specially sanitized receptacle to put said urine into.
Said urine.
Hopefully it isn't red urine.
That's not good.
Oh, geez.
Yeah, no, that's bad.
They say, one doctor speaks anonymously about this, he said, to the Times of London.
Do you ever go to that paper?
No, never did anything outside of U.S. and Canada.
Gotcha.
Did the Toronto Star was the only, the only foray out of the United States, unfortunately for me.
They're under the thumb of the queen, so that's close.
They are exactly.
One doctor said, and honestly to this paper,
such multiple, or that multiple clinics have put up signs asking patients not to bring in this urine.
So it's not just their clinic.
It's like all over the place.
Yeah, it's apparently all over the place.
It's a rash of unsolicited pee.
Yeah.
I don't like unsolicited pee.
There's your free title.
I take it.
Who's got it?
Who wants it?
Who wants it?
They probably already did.
Actually, J. Funktastic actually did it about five minutes again, it looks
like that exact phrase even well he's uh he's quick he's not one to mess with
colad zushi says i'm picturing brian's voice visualization and is a black bag oh yeah look at that
a little oops that's mine not yours hold on uh there's brian's this is my voice sounds like
a little bag of pee there nothing wrong with that hopefully more like the uh the light color
of the wavy lines and less like that bright red splotch on the right side yeah that's when
you want to take in a sample that's take it in unsolicited i'm afraid
Yikes.
Anyway, watch out for that, London, or UK, I guess.
There's a little bit of red in my pee.
How much?
This much?
Yeah, this much, and then go, shake it in front of them.
Exactly.
Whoops, not sealed.
Yellow and blue didn't make green.
I love it.
Another seemingly strange issue with chimps now.
Uh-huh.
You know, they're chimpanzees, little apes there.
Sure, sure, yeah.
They're sticking grass and sticks in their butts.
And it's seemingly, for no other reason, but a fashion trend, according to experts.
Oh, good. Get ready, MetGala 2026.
Yeah, I wouldn't. It'd be great if, like, Timothy Shalamey showing up on the red carpet with looks like grass and sticks coming out of his butt.
When you saw Superman, did you see a commercial with Timothy Shalame that was about, what was it even about?
Oh, it's the cash app commercial that he's in?
No, no.
All right. I have, I have beef with this.
No, but they don't show commercials at Draft House.
Oh, that's right. You guys are lucky that way.
Yeah, we get, we get really weird shit that's got Superman in it for 30 minutes before the show and then previews.
I do like that.
Yeah.
That would be way more my vibe.
Do they ever do animation festivals at that, there?
Like any kind of...
They do.
I haven't been to one.
Oh, I'd love to go to that.
I'm not going to say anything on, because Tina might listen today, so I'm not going to say anything that might be...
Oh, future secret.
future mystery dates, but, yeah.
Can't be spilling that popcorn in the lobby.
Nope. Nope.
Anyway, what was my point?
Oh, this commercial, so it's this cash app commercial, but you didn't know that at first.
It looks like it's a trailer because Timothy Shalame shows up in this weird store full of Far East vegetables and strange, one-of-a-kind vegetables, like seeds were put in lava rock and then they produced these weird hide.
This whole thing, and I'm like, what is it?
this movie going to be about and he keeps glancing at this other younger Asian kid who
keeps glancing at him and you think shit's about to go down and it's just getting weird and
it goes forever before they ever talk about anything and then they finally get to a point where
the guy says you need to tell him how he pays for these vegetables and the guy says it's all trade
you know you give me a goat I give you a bunch of these I give you eggs you take the you know
it's all trade and he says what no way in this modern world and in the end it's all about
having the cash app or not it annoyed me to no end because it's not really what it didn't play like
a commercial it played like a movie it felt like a trailer at the end didn't say cash app used by twinks
everywhere that should have little skinny rat boys that's what it should say that's right rat boyfriends
oh man anyway anyone else see that i guess we all saw it at the meetup but the anybody else see
that commercial tell me i'm crazy because it just rubbed me so wrong and i like chalemay i like
i don't like being fooled i want my trailers to look like trailers and my commercials to look like
Yeah, I want to know what I'm in for.
Damn it.
That was a really well-produced commercial.
And also annoying.
Let's move on to this story.
Yeah.
Chimps, putting stuff in their butt.
Chimps.
So, yeah, yeah, still sticking stuff up their butt stuff.
Yeah, chumps and butt stuff.
A group of chimpanzees in Zambia have resurrected an old-fashioned trend
while surprising, with a surprising new twist.
I feel like Bill Hader needs to do this segment.
15 years after a female chimpanzee named Julie first stuck a butt.
blade of grass in her ear and started a hot
new craze among her cohort at
the Chim Funchi
Wildlife Orphanage
Chim Funchi?
Chim Funchi. Okay, I know that's a real thing
but it sounds like they're trying to say it's fun
for chimps, you know? Yeah, I guess.
Yeah. Where is this?
The article came from
Canada. Canada.
But Zambia is where
the, I wonder
if this is in Zambia or if this
is a different place. I don't know. I can't
tell but chimp fun she sounds like i'm getting my leg pulled but whatever an entirely new group of chimps
at the refuge just started doing the same thing uh we were really shocked to see this happen again says
jake brooker a psychologist and great apes researcher at the durham university in england
uh see we were even more shocked that they were doing their own spin on this by inserting the grass
and sticks in a very different orifice bing bong their buttholes butholes chimpsi uh the chimsy
says have been putting blades of grass and sticks
into their ears and anuses and simply letting
them dangle there for no apparent reason.
The study published, well, whatever. Chimps have
always struck me. It's just a little perverted.
Yeah, I mean, you know, that video
still is one of the most hilarious
ones of the chimps scratching his
butt and smelling it and then just passing out
out of the tree. They're just weird.
They drink their own peevee sometimes.
They fling their poo at people.
I mean, it's, you know. They crank it in the corner
while kids watch. How can we, how can we be surprised
by anything that they do?
Yeah. Is there anything a chimp could do that we would not be surprised by?
Right.
No, the answer is no.
And they also mall people and, like, have the strength of ten men.
They're horrible.
Chimps, they're terrible.
And they're really territorial.
Sorry, Jane Goodall.
No, who is it?
Jane Goodall?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or Sigourney Weaver playing.
Well, that was the other one.
It was the guerrillas in the mist was the other one.
That Jane...
This is where I get those two confused.
Yeah, she played a different lady, right?
Or was she playing Goodall?
That's the...
Apes in the Mist or Gorillas in the Mist is the movie and that was, um, is that Diane Fosse.
Oh, that's it.
Yes.
But Jane Goodall is a apex word.
Jane Goodall is the Chimps.
Diane Fossy is the Gorillazes.
Right.
That's it.
That's how you separate him.
Guerrillas Chimps.
That's it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
I remember thinking that movie was pretty good.
Guerrillas in the Mist.
Yeah.
I remember thinking it was pretty solid.
You know, I just saw it back in the day and never saw,
since maybe it needs a maybe it needs a revisit could film sack that even yeah it's a pretty
straight drama but it could be fun to do uh all right well there you have it uh so this this deal is
they don't know why it's happening they publish the study in the journal behavior there's a journal
called behavior i need to re-up my subscription to behavior see how that just behavior not even behavior
weekly it's just behavior yeah let's see they learn from us some say oh i don't know uh the research
They suspect that they learn this behavior from people, the ear part anyway.
So I think this is just the chimps going, oh, let's put it in this other place.
Exactly.
I don't know.
You know, I think there's a big leap to say it's a hot new fashion trend among chimpanzees.
I know, dude.
That feels a little TikTokian to me.
Like, it's a little much, but.
That's like my beef with, what's his name?
The Twitter co-founder, Jack Dorsey has been releasing a bunch of apps one after another recently.
They all sound like shit to me, but whatever.
Like one's a private app that only works on Bluetooth.
You can't even use it on the internet.
Yeah.
It's fine.
But he calls this process of creating these quick little apps.
He calls it vibe coding.
Now, I know it's also being used by a lot of other people.
I am not poo-pooing on prototyping or quick, agile.
Just use of that phrase.
That phrase is my beef.
Yes.
Vibe coding.
What am I in the mood for now?
You know, I got a vibe.
What's the vibe right now?
Do we need an app that lets me wipe my ass with my pinky ass wipe.com?
I hate it.
I hate that term so bad it makes me want to cringe all afternoon.
And I might.
I might just do it.
All right.
So thanks to Spencer for this one.
I sent this in.
This is actually a little late, but on the 4th of July, we had, you know, the big 4th of July business.
A whole Independence Day.
Or as they call it in Utah, the first fireworks day.
The first fireworks show of the month.
Yeah, the 24th, the prequel to the 24th, really, is what they should call it.
Right.
Although, I have to say, shout out to all my neighbors.
Normally, they just do it every night from the 4th to the 24th.
I just hear it.
Yeah.
I haven't heard it in days.
Have they been well behaved?
They have.
Not since the 5th.
On the 5th I did, the day after, which is also annoying.
But not since then.
And I think that's to their, someone's credit.
I don't know who's.
Maybe they crack down on it.
I don't actually know what happened.
Anyway, the Mariners game, they have a 4th of July.
game. A salmon
fell out of the sky.
Okay. At the Mariners game. Just one
salmon. This isn't like a
Magnolia situation where
the salmon eggs were
evaporated up into
the clouds and came back down as rain
after the... No. Or even
that... I know it was Toads in
Magnolia, but similar kind of thing. There was a fish
one in... Yeah, Fargo
Season 1. That's right.
Yes. Similar thing. And it was based on
it was that season's weird
You know how every season has a weirdness that they don't ever explain?
Almost like a supernatural thing, but...
Yeah, it was maybe aliens in season two.
Season three was...
Oh, shit, I don't remember.
I might have to do a re-I...
I haven't re-watched any seasons of Fargo.
I think I'm going to re-watch the one with Mary...
Not Mary Stuart Master, Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
Three then.
Yeah, three with Ewan McGregor, right?
Three's so good, dude.
Everything's good. None of it's bad.
And the turds float.
And the turds float.
And he pukes after everything he eats. He's so weird
in that. David Theulus. What a weird
role for that guy. All right. Fargo
Season 3, rewatch after I finish my
do it. My current recommendal.
Do it. Oh, man, I say do it a lot since we watch
that stupid movie. Do it. Do it. I kind of hate that
it keeps coming up. It is the worst thing to come from that
stupid Starsky and Hutch. Yeah, kind of annoys me.
Anyway, so this fish.
You're falling right into what Ben Stiller wanted to do with that line.
I felt the trap was right there.
Yeah, you walked right into it.
We saw the trap.
Yes.
He's like, oh, I want to make this a catchphrase.
Can I make this a catchphrase if I do it a lot?
If I do it a lot.
And here we are 15 years later helping him.
Not we?
Yes, true.
I'm the only one doing it.
It ain't we, Scott.
Although I hear Dunaway do it a lot.
I'm going to give him some blame.
He does it a lot.
He did the latest film's act.
He does it all the time now.
Anyway, so where did it come from this fish?
Well, according to Mariner's broadcaster, Rick Rizzers, Rick Rizz, Z, Riz, S, two Zs and an S in that last name.
Yeah, Rick Rizz.
Holy crap, his Riz is on fleek.
He really be the same name with just one Z.
Yeah.
And no Z-S at the end.
You don't need either of those two final letters.
No, no.
There's probably some heritage there.
I don't understand, but it's wrong.
Sure.
It's bad.
It says he was on the Seattle Sports Radio call with Angie Mentnick, Mentick, Mentic, no, Mentink. Mentink. These names.
And then this one I can get, Gary Hill Jr. was also on that call.
Well done.
It fell out of the grasp of a falcon that was being pursued by an eagle.
Oh, wow. So Philly and Atlanta were playing as well.
Yep. And T-Mobile Park received it because they had good reception at the,
team mobile park
see
anyway it was a great
place to go fishing
if you are a bird
of prey so this sort of thing
happens around there
anyway so this is great
a salmon almost landed
on this poor guy's head
says in the interview
and then seagulls came in
and went after the eagle
so you had
you had the hot
not hawk what was it
it was a falcon
falcon
Pursued by an eagle
pursued by a
it's like
it's like turducken
what would this be called
Siegel
Siegel
Sealken.
See, Al.
You got to get, yeah, eagles in there, but it's hard.
Eagles in there, but it fits right into the seagull, so you don't want to, yeah.
Yeah, that's hard.
Anyway, they...
Seagulkin.
A few minutes later, the suddenly appearing Pish showed up on some social media, Pish.
Suddenly appearing Pish.
Suddenly appearing Pish.
See, I think there's a video or a photo or something.
Oh, really?
Yeah, let's see here.
On this video, okay, is this is it?
This might be it.
Oh, shit.
We have to go to X to do this?
I don't like going here.
All right, here we go.
Okay, well, it's after you got the fish.
I want to see the fish fall.
Yeah, there's so many shots in the ballpark.
Oh, there it is.
I don't know why it's somebody filming a film thing.
Give me the original.
Right, it's the person filming the TV, which is even better.
Like, we're going to hold it up to the camera to the TV.
Come on, people.
Yeah, this is.
is unrelated here but this happened once at a mariner's game god just uh the eagle is that is that's
not randy johnson the big unit no you know who okay so there's a the game the what do you
call them games borderlands games the owner of the company that makes those gearbox his name is
randy pitchford he should have been a pitcher think about that if you're in the you're in the mb you're
a first uh first run pitcher and your name is randy pitchford randy pitchford perfect holy shit the
The Packers had a kicker for a while, like a field gold kicker whose name was Longwell.
Shut up, really?
It's like the perfect name, yeah.
That's great.
That's actually great.
All right, we're going to take a break.
When we come back from this break, we are going to talk to Travis and see how our little score does.
Because he gives us trivia.
We answer the questions.
He does.
We play that game.
That's right.
We come away a winner or a loser.
We'll find out today how that all goes after this song Brian brought.
What do you got?
I brought a tune for us.
Now, this is cool.
So, you know, Sunday I listen to all the music and figure out the songs I'm going to be playing for the whole week.
Usually, like, you know, fill out the whole week on Sundays.
And I discovered this album via Clarion Call Media.
Thank you, Clarian Call.
Caroline at Clarion Call Media for sending you this one.
That's great.
It's a nice little tongue twister.
Sure.
this is a band called
the Bourne Ruffians. We're just playing
Born Ruffians. They have a brand new
album that's called Beauty's Pride out now
on Yep Rock Records. Once I heard
the song that you're about to hear
I said, I need to listen to this
whole album. And
yesterday when I was Ubering at the end of the
day, decided Uber for a couple hours
at the end of the day, I listened to this
album on repeat over and over in the car.
Nobody commented on it, but I sure got a
great vibe from it. This feels like
like, you know, your great
modern 80s, modern band that uses
80s elements, 80s synthesizers.
It's so freaking good.
Trust me, folks.
You'll hear this song, and, you know,
those of you listening live, you're not going to hear it,
but those of you who hear this as a podcast,
tell me if your head doesn't start bopping to this intro.
It will.
Oh my gosh.
I'm so excited.
The song is called Athena from the new album,
Beauty's Pride.
Here are Born Ruffians.
I'm going to be able to be.
There's trap gonna get you
That's not future friendly
Reach out for the carrots
It sticks
Now I'm running a circle's over my head
Tripping all over the words I said
But it's a new moon now
Orroto's a tide
And it's much too much for me
I want to be taking peace
Take a peace
Yeah
I feel
Oh
taking feet
Full stop
Didn't get it
Locked out
Not a member
Get stuck
On the outside
In your jeans
Now you're running inside
Because trying to get in
Dripping out of who
Who it might have been
And it's much
Too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much, too much, too much, too
much for me
Oh, oh, please, oh, take it ease, yeah, oh, take it me,
Easy
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Take a
Ease.
The new super chromatic horn.
Listen.
You should not to do that unless you know how.
And we're back.
Tell me who that was again.
from Toronto, those are the born
Ruffians with their brand new album.
It's called Beauty's Pride.
That is one of the first singles.
It's called Athena, and it's a bop, as the kids say.
Fantastic. I love it and want more.
I haven't heard it yet, but I will.
I know, yeah.
We have on the line with us, a good old pal.
We're going to start it with this.
This is Travis, and you'll do well to listen carefully to what he has to say.
You will indeed.
TB's Travis joins us as he does each and every month to test us trivially.
trivili testes that's me that's right that's you man how you doing how you feeling i'm good i'm good uh i went
and saw superman last week loved it yeah um so i just want to get that out there and um
definitely if you're a fan of just comic books in general go see that yeah yeah it's real good man
doesn't matter doesn't matter yeah i'm excited because as a bit of it i mean when i was
reading comics it was mostly a dc guy just really resonated with me for some reason in the comics
and to know that the DCU is getting some serious plans and care and ideas
and stuff that are just going to take it, just take it into a new place.
I'm really stoked.
I hope it's a new dawn for them.
And, you know, corn sweat with a terrible ass name can be my Superman anytime.
Well, anyway, it's good to have you here, man.
We're going to get to the trivia that Travis brings.
And I don't feel prepared, but I'm going to go for it anyway.
I know.
Yeah.
I have not studied.
I didn't do any studying.
Oh, that's okay.
Neither did I.
Oh, good.
Fantastic.
Well, lay it on us.
What have we got this month?
Yeah, so just to level set, Scott, you are up five to one on Brian right now.
So, Brian, you've got some.
I have some catching up to you.
At least it will be a shutout now, things to June.
It also sounds insane when you say it.
Like, I can't believe it's five to one.
I know.
I know.
Because the last year, last time we were tracking this a year ago or whatever, I was getting murdered.
So I don't know what's going on.
We still ended the season with.
with only like a one or two game difference.
Like it was getting,
there was the potential for being a tie in, uh, in December.
I felt like I was getting clobbered.
I don't know why I feel that way.
No, it ended up last year ended up six five.
So I think I just have it in my head that when it's trivia,
it's like I'm going to be on the back foot.
It's just way it feels.
You're doing.
You're doing great.
So all right.
We'll see what happens today.
Stop it.
Whatever this bullshit is, quit it.
All right.
Well, let's give it a shot.
Let's see where we're at.
What'd you bring?
Yeah.
So, as always, there is a theme.
I'll be curious.
You'll probably figure this one out, but we'll see.
We'll see how it goes.
We're going to start with an actor.
All right.
And titles of this of movies, this actor has been in.
Brian, you get to start our bidding.
Okay.
I will start with three.
Three.
Three.
I will attempt.
Hmm.
I'll attempt to.
All right.
And do we determine, we did not determine, or no, I'm sorry, have we, we have
talked since the person who wrote in said like if brian goes for one and misses it and scott
misses the two brain still gets the three right so there really yeah we'll go with whatever the
yes whatever we actually bid so if we bid five four three two one we would get each of those
up until somebody gets the answer right all right then i'm going to go for one because there's again
there's no reason not to i won't get it based on one and hopefully i won't give anything away but
At least it's worth of a shot.
There's no downside.
All right.
All right.
So, Brian, the one title that this actor has been in.
Penny Dreadful.
Okay.
A lot of people were in that.
Aren't there two of those?
There was the city of somethings, city of evil or something like that, Penny Dreadful?
This is just Penny Dreadful.
Just Penny, just original flavor, Penny Dreadful.
Yes.
Vanilla.
And I'm again, I'm not going to say extra things because I don't want to give Scott anything, but I'm going to say that the actor that was the most familiar to me from that show, which is Ava Green.
Hubba, hubba.
Good guess, but wrong.
That's a good guy.
I was going to go there, too.
Yeah.
You know, I don't never know if you, if when you say, if you split actor or actress or if you would say actor for both.
male or female?
I tend to say actor for both.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Fair enough.
All right.
So, Scott, you get one more title.
All right.
So this person was in Penny Dreadful.
Mm-hmm.
And also Hot Fuzz.
Oh.
Oh.
Bill Nye.
Not a bad guess, but also incorrect.
Damn it!
Who is the...
Oh, you guess you can tell us now.
No?
Well, no, Brian gets his three.
This is the scenario.
Ah, shit, I'm dead.
I'm dead me.
I don't know if you are or not, but we'll see.
Hopefully there's something because I don't have it from two.
So Penny Dreadful, hot fuzz, and our third title is The Rocketeer.
Oh.
Timothy Dalton.
Oh!
That is correct.
Damn it.
The theme is...
Needed that third one.
Might be a James Bond theme, I'm guessing already, but we'll see.
So, don't know.
Yep, Timothy Dalton, a couple other movies, Flash Gordon.
I forget that he's in that.
Prince Barron, yeah.
Yep, and the Living Daylights, which is an underrated James Bond.
I agree, yeah.
At the time, it was the closest to Ian Fleming's description of James Bond that we'd actually
gotten from, you know, instead of the wisecracking, martini swilling movie version,
And it was like the dark, brooding, blunt object.
I felt like we weren't ready as an audience for that.
I think so.
No, exactly.
It would not have done well with Timothy Dalton in the first movies.
New.
All right.
So, after round one, we got Brian up won nothing.
Scott, you're going to start our bidding on round two.
This is a movie, and you will bid on how many cast members?
How many cast members?
I will give you cast members, and you have to guess the title.
of the same
so one movie
multiple cast members
um yes
well I'll do like Brian
I'll say three
three okay
this is the downside of this rules
we can always do this I know yeah
no but it's smart you know it's a smart
because you're kind of giving yourself a backup
yeah
I'll definitely do two
there's no reason for me not to do two
well I'll give one a shot
okay Scott here's your one
member in this movie.
Shit.
Desmond Llewellyn.
Desmond
Llewellyn.
Oh, oh.
I don't want to give anything away.
Well, we're definitely in the
James Bond zone.
It's only 26 to choose from.
Yeah, I was going to say, he did him a long time.
Yeah, I did.
I guess he wasn't in all of them, but.
Yeah, he did them until he couldn't, basically.
Although, it wasn't in the first one.
remember that that was weird right that threw me um okay well that's that really does leave
it uh i'm gonna go with um i'll go with golden eye why not golden eye's a good guess uh it's wrong
but it's a good guess all right damn it brian here's your second cast member that was in this movie
Gert Frobe.
I have to get treatment for my Gert Froba.
I know.
Gert Frobe?
Gert Frobe.
Yes. Gert Frobe.
Froba.
Froba.
Gert Froba.
Ask your doctor if your Gert Froba lasts for more than four hours.
It sounds like health food from whole foods or something.
It does.
I'm...
Okay. Gert.
God.
Gert Froba
Um
I don't know if
Probe is
Are you looking up GertVro?
Oh no, that's not you clicking.
That's Travis typing something.
Yeah, that's not me.
Yep, sorry.
I'm looking to see if Gert Froba is an urban dictionary.
Uh, did, okay, is
Gert Froba maybe the woman who played Kleb in, um,
what was that?
That was Rosa Kleb in,
which one was that?
That was,
diamonds are forever.
Also a good guess, but no.
All right, give me my third.
Scott, you get, you get one more.
Sally Ann Howes.
I'm guessing that was a bond girl of some sort.
well i'll just do the other one uh the one that had the guy from jaws in it um
and the weird lady that whacked him in the gut and said i can't remember there was the scene i just
couldn't get out of my head the guy from jaws or jaws the guy no the guy from the movie jaws
the one that's the the crazy old guy that gets bitten and a half toward the end what's his name
i was forget his name of them not that we i don't want to think about jaws is going to mess me up all right
um it worked perfectly perfectly well done um it is one of the
either to that I, and I just, I guess I'll say, from Russia with love.
Hmm.
That's a good guess.
Damn it.
It's also incorrect.
Shit.
What we were looking for was chitty, chitty, bang, bang.
Nice play, because that's even another, yeah, I'm not going to say anything, but that is, that's a good connection there.
Well done.
Yeah.
You and you're light-hearted, like, you guys might get today's theme, it might be, not a problem.
Then you give us Llewellyn and it turns out it's not a Bond movie.
Holy shit.
All right, dastardly.
But I do have an idea of the connection based on that.
I have, I like the cut of your jib.
That's good.
No.
It's fine.
All right.
So we are on to round three, our music round.
I have a song for you.
Brian, you're going to start our bidding.
I've got one second, two seconds.
five and six seconds, but they're pushed forward just a little bit to get past the opening
bit. And then I do have a bit that has some vocals in it. All right. I'm, you know, I can't not do
the one second as an attack and a defensive play. It's not a bad idea. Not a bad idea. I say,
go for it. All right. Here's your one second, Brian.
Okay, that is your Duran Duran, Duran view to a kill.
Boo!
I mean, yes.
That is correct.
I hit the wrong one.
Yeah, that was a...
The overproduced...
Yeah, that is...
That's a great song, but I like that song.
It's a good song.
It also, I did not know this until just recently,
was the only James Bond theme to hit number one on the Billboard.
Oh, really?
Only one?
Like, even still to this day, because I cut off...
sworn like the
I think maybe
Skyfall did by now
but for a long time
it was the only one.
Wild.
That's crazy.
Wow.
All right.
So 2-0 with one draw
so far. Round four, Scott,
you get to start our bidding.
This is a character
and I'm going to give you
like characteristics of this
character.
Characteristics of a character.
Things about them.
This isn't new.
I like this.
This is almost like the superhero
we're going to give you
his powers,
but this is like characteristics
of this character.
Shit.
Okay.
Well, I'll do the three thing again.
I'll do it in three.
Okay.
I'll do two.
I'll do it in one.
There you go.
All right, Scott.
This character is incredibly strong and durable.
Martial arts training.
Expert's marks.
Marksman.
Strong and durable, you say.
He's bounty, is apparently what he is.
Wow, that could be so many.
But he's slow at picking things up somehow.
Strong and durable.
It's not the quicker picker up or is what you're telling us.
I mean, I guess I can just say the, but I don't know if we're still in theme or not.
I'll just, I'll say Jaws, played by...
I think it's Richard Kiel.
It was a great guess.
Yeah, I'd say Richard Kiel.
Yeah, that is a good guess because it's correct.
Oh, good job.
Good job, yeah.
I couldn't think of what else they'd have.
They didn't, I mean, odd job just had the hat, right?
Based on the theme, I feel like that's exactly what...
You know, immense strength.
He's ridiculously durable.
Like, he survives things you shouldn't.
He's also seven feet, two inches tall.
Yeah, he's frequently.
Mostly mute.
He has one line in the two movies he's in.
Moon Raker, yeah.
And big metal teeth.
One line?
Yeah, was metal teeth going to be clue number two?
No, that was going to be number four.
What were your...
I couldn't, I mean, metal teeth would have been too easy, but seven foot two.
Oh, yeah, that would have got it from that for sure.
And being mostly mute, like basically doesn't have any lines of dialogue,
except for one at the end of Moon Raker.
You did not have near enough people lined up to get a signature at that Star Trek.
He really did.
It was criminal how few people were waiting to get Richard Killsing.
That bummed me out, man.
That was sad.
I like him.
I did say hi.
I did, I did too.
All right, round five, our final round.
Right now we have a two to one.
Brian is in the lead.
Brian, you get to start our bidding.
This is going to be a movie, and you're going to be given characters in the movie.
Okay.
Do another three, two, one?
I'm going to do two.
to force Scott into a one situation, which, uh, um, it's a good strategy here.
Yeah.
I mean, I could, I could do one technically and win the game because even if I get it wrong,
he doesn't get a, doesn't get a, that's true.
But I don't want that.
That feels, that feels dirty pools of it.
That's like you're in the rules.
That's like running out the clock.
It kind of is.
Yeah, it feels, it feels dirty pool.
So I'm not going to do it.
I'll say two.
I'll say one.
I'll give it a shot.
All right.
All right.
Scott,
your one character from this movie.
Alec Trevelyan.
Oh, that last name, Trevelyan.
Why is that so familiar?
Alec Trevelyan.
We have no other hints.
No time frame.
No era.
Alec Trevellian.
I think I know that
I think it's the movie I'm coming up with
yeah I think I've already said it
I think it's he gets killed by a satellite
um
uh golden eye
yeah I think it's Sean Bean's character
it's Sean Bean's character
it's oh yeah
well done
well done yeah he was great
double O something
004 six six
oh I didn't realize they were so close in number
I thought it was like a
he got his license right he was standing
in line right in front of James Bond.
They were giving out licenses. He got there 10 minutes
earlier. That's how he did that. It's like, I'm here for the
license to kill. Get back in line, buddy.
You don't get it. All right. So that ties us then?
That ties us up. Oh, shit. I'm scared
now. All right. It better not be
a music tiebreaker.
I'm pretty sure you figured out the theme by this point.
It's Ian Fleming.
Yes, Ian Fleming and James Bond.
I'm sorry. Stop that truck for a second.
He wrote... Chitty Bang Bang was written by Ian Fleming.
I had no idea.
Yeah. That's awesome. I loved that as a kid.
I didn't know he was in there. He wrote that. That's nuts.
Just dragging Llewellyn around with him.
I know, exactly.
Well, and I love that the movie had Desmond Llewellyn and Gert in it because Gert was Goldfinger.
Is he Goldfinger? Yeah, okay. All right, goldfinger. I was wondering.
That's a dude.
Gert's a dude. Okay.
Gert's a dude.
All right. So, we need a tiebreaker because we're two, too.
Okay.
Now, we're going to take Golden Eye out because it's been said.
On a date.
We're going to go back and forth naming James Bond films until someone fails.
Oh, man.
Brian's going to creamy on this.
All right.
I'm going to start with Brian.
Brian, you need to name a James Bond film.
Dr. No.
All right.
Scott.
And it can be something that we've said previously.
We just can't say it twice in this list.
Just can't say golden eyes.
The only one we can't say.
Oh, okay.
Golden Eyes out.
Okay, goldenize out.
So then, can I say diamonds are forever, even though Brian already said it in the other question?
Or is that also?
That's fine.
If that's your answer.
Okay, diamonds are forever.
All right, Brian.
From Russia with love.
Okay.
Scott, you got another?
Yeah, my brain just went weirdly blank.
Skyrim.
Skyrim.
Sorry.
Skyfall.
Come on, come on.
Give it.
I'm going to allow it.
Skyfall is good.
I always do that, by the way.
Let the sky rim.
I do it all the time.
Brian.
On her majesty's secret service.
That's correct.
Majesty's secret cervix.
Oh shit.
It's a very different movie.
A very different film.
That's why she lives so long.
I don't know what that means.
How about the dumbest one?
Oh, wait, I don't want to get that wrong.
Hold on.
Octopussy
Okay
Dumber than Moon Raker
Oh shit
You're right
Actually Moon Raker's way dumber
Um
Um
Uh
Uh
Oh
Does it never say never again
Never say never again
Never say never again
Shit
Is it wrong?
I'm not going to
accept that one. That is not an official
non-Cannon productions James Bond
movie. Outside the broccoli canon.
Oh, shit, that's right.
Why didn't I say
Casino Royale? Why didn't
have been two of them? There have been two Casino Real.
Well, one was out of Canon as well.
Yeah. Live and let die.
Freaking, now my brain's like relaxing.
Quantum of solace.
Shit. No time to die.
Was no time to die. Was no time to die.
It was the new one, right?
Yeah. Yeah. No time to die.
Man with the Golden Gun.
I'm going to pull up the chat.
They probably have them all.
Oh, Thunderball?
Shit.
Thunderball.
Did someone do Goldfinger?
You previously mentioned a view to a kill?
Oh, view to a kill, yeah.
We could have brought that up again.
Damn it.
I was waiting to do the other Timothy Dalton ones.
But you know what I should have done is picked all the Daniel Craig ones because I thought that would have been where he would go first.
So I could have dread that well first.
Yeah.
Spy love me.
Oh, man.
All right.
Brian, that was a clear win.
You won, Brian.
You took this month.
Woo-hoo. Okay, good. I'm rally, clawing my way back is...
Five to two, right? Five to two?
Yep, five to two. All right. There you have it.
Congratulations.
We are on the road to either a comeback victory like no one's ever seen.
No one's ever seen it like this. Never been like this.
Unprecedented.
Or...
President of victory. James Bond, he's a drinker.
Or somehow I will retain my win through the year. Who knows, guys, you'll have to tune in and find out.
In the meantime, there's plenty that happens over in Travellington.
This is world that we should probably be informed of, Travis.
Where should people go and what should they check out?
Well, you should go to TVsTravs.com and check out.
I just will be posting the episode tomorrow.
Dr. Nicky on a wait you haven't seen this week.
I watched a night's tale for the first time.
I had never watched that movie.
I've actually never watched it other than falling asleep a lot through it during a trip to Australia.
When it was a flight to Australia and it was still at the time where you had the big screen
at the front of the cabin and then you could plug in and hear the audio and um i just dozed in
and out and barely remember any of it so oh this is the one with the music with the modern music
yeah oh yeah i think i i've definitely seen it but i have so few memories of it he'd led a really cool
thing i learned about it was the reason part of the reason that they did the music that way was
that the director and writer brian helgeland i think is his name um who did like payback and all that
Yeah.
He wanted to evoke the feeling of music from back in that time, but do it in a way that a modern audience could connect it.
So he used, like, stadium rock, arena rock from the 70s as that kind of thing.
I thought that was really cool.
I forgot Paul, Paul Bettney and Alan Tudick are in this.
Check this out.
Oh, Paul, Paul Bettney.
Look at Alan Tudick with red hair.
Yeah, right?
Yes.
One of my favorite actors ever.
Oh, yeah.
Rufus Sewell.
Rufus Sewell.
I watch him do.
He's so great.
Open gum.
He's so good.
That show with Felicity, the, the, and it's her role, whatever her, the ambassador?
Is that right?
Is it the ambassador?
Kim and I watch the whole thing, and I can't remember the name.
No, it's after, it's recent.
Oh, it's a series.
The diplomat.
The diplomat.
We knew it was some kind of title.
So, he is so freaking good in the diplomat.
Like a character that is so multifaceted, you love him and you hate him at the same time.
No, when he shows up, you go, oh, this is a.
a nice softy role for him. I'm not used to this.
And then it changes. It tweaks.
He's great, dude.
Open group and pure.
Yeah, go ahead.
Also, the podcast that I started
earlier this year, 24 FPS
presents. Our final episode of
season one is out today
where we finished the Fast and Furious
franchise. Nice. Nice.
Well, until that final, final
one comes out, right? Isn't there some talk of it?
No, there's another one.
They talked about another one.
I'm skeptical on how they're going to do certain things that they've said they're going to do with characters.
I don't like it, but we'll find out.
Okay.
And we're working on season two of that, which will be out in about a month and a half.
Right around the time I'm at Dragon Cup.
Scale from zero to awesome outfit from Sean Connery, how excited are you for the reboot of the Highlander deal?
Are you excited about that?
Extremely excited.
I am too.
Extremely excited.
I love
Russell Crow in this era
of his career
He's just having fun
Old Crow is great
Big fan
And Henry Cavill is great
And I love Chad Stahelsky's work
So I'm excited for it
Me too
Finally needs to just start filming
That's right
Get the actual production going
We've heard enough
Let's go guys
Well that's great
I'm looking forward to that
By the way
Now that you finished all the fast
In the Furious series
Did I mean I guess I'll have to tune
To find out
But I'm guessing
that Tokyo Drift is truly the greatest of all
because I don't think the rest of them
even hold a candle to it, but that's just me.
What do you think?
There were aspects of Tokyo Drift I absolutely loved,
and I ranked it higher than Stephen did,
but it wasn't my number one, although thinking about it,
and we're actually talking about doing a kind of feedback, retro-retrospective,
and, like, now that we're a few weeks away from it,
revisit and look at, like, how we ranked them
and what we actually think.
And see if those rankings changed after you've gotten away from them for a little while, too.
Yeah.
Because Tokyo Drift has some really good stuff in it.
And it was just taking a wild swing, trying something new.
But it also has some horrible moments.
Did you know, I don't know if you guys knew this, but for the last, I don't know, a few decades,
Vin Diesel and Michael Kane have become, like, best friends.
Did you guys know about this?
This is a thing.
Really?
I did.
Yeah.
Look at these two.
He's out just walking around with him in his wheel.
I love that. Oh, my gosh.
See, the pair started in 2015.
He's the last witch hunter, but they've been, I guess, for decades, just pals.
They want to hang out all the time.
Now that he's kind of, you know, stuck in a wheelchair.
Vin's like, I'll push you around, whatever.
You could have asked me, like, who do you think Michael Kane has been buddies with for decades?
And I probably wouldn't have gotten to Vin Diesel until guest number 500 or 600.
Yeah, you would, whatever the theme of that month's Travis trivia, we'd never get it.
A whole day, yes, exactly.
I also don't, Mason in the Chast says, I don't like Michael Cain in a wheelchair.
I don't either, but he's 92 or three or something.
He's getting, he's getting on.
Yeah, I know.
Where is me?
Some people just want to watch the world burn from a wheelchair.
Anyway, that's it for you, Travis.
I hope that you have a fantastic rest of your day and month and week, really, all the time things.
Yeah, all of it.
And stay out of trouble, will you?
Will you do that for us?
I'll try.
All right, bye.
Yeah.
Okay.
There he goes.
I got a retro throwback.
mashup to play.
Mash up. Oh, good. It's basically us
screwing things up. All right?
Another time for us to let the people
know we're not so proud. We're fallible.
We're not perfect.
No, and we're willing to like showcase
literally how imperfect we are by
playing old audio of us effing up reads.
So that's what this is. Big thanks to Jamie
for sending this. As per usual, he is
always making sure we got something cool
to play. And I meant to play it yesterday and forgot.
So we're playing it today. Here you go.
Coming up at TMS.
Coming up at?
Jeez.
Coming up a bit a mess.
Come at a ta putty-p-a-p-te-p-te.

It's like, oh, the word that spelled the way it should be and I can't see it for some dumb-ass reason.
Smack your knuckles with a ruler if you don't get this right.
It's insane how that happens.
But anyway, thank you, Jamie.
Those are some really old ones in there.
Yeah.
It's back when Stephen and Bill were on the same day.
Yeah.
Never see that ever happened.
All right, well, there you have it.
Quick note, play retro today at 4 p.m.
Me and Brian Dunaway doing our thing about retro gaming.
No one lives forever is what we're going to talk about.
Well, coincidentally.
Yeah, that's pretty funny how that came up.
So we'll be doing that.
Can't wait to talk about it.
One of my favorite games of that era, and maybe it was yours too.
So tune in and find out live at frogpans.
TV or on the podcast.
That's going to do it for us.
Everything you can find for our show, how to contact us, how to request songs,
everything in between, frogpants.com, slash,
TMS. Brian, let's get the F out. Yes. And boy, I asked for more requests and you guys delivered.
I'm going to be catching up with these all through the end of the month and probably into August if I don't get any more August requests. But you guys did very well. And I'm going to try and get to everybody's request at some point. Arborist Andrew wrote in and said, I'm several episodes behind, but you said you could use more requests for July. The 11th is my birthday. Metal cover. Metal cover. Metal cover. Metal cover. Metal cover. Metal cover.
That's exciting.
I can't wait.
He says metal cover, metal cover.
This is, this, this, this, this kind of borders on, this like straddles the line for me of the, the good use of the screaming effect that I like.
I mean, you know, everybody has a different taste in it.
A lot of people really like that, that raw raw stuff, but I like it when it's used sparingly and along with as an accompaniment to other vocals.
This one hits it for me.
It's a band called Fire of Ares.
I've been waiting for a chance to play this.
This is a 20-23 cover of the SEAL song, Kiss from a Rose.
Once again, Fire of Ares.
I just found a clip that says,
Ibit metal thing.
I'm going to see what it is,
because I was looking at metal,
and this came up, so let's see what it is.
I don't know what that was about.
That's it.
Just I bit metal.
Why is it Ibit metal?
I don't know.
I don't know what I was doing there.
I don't know what that's about.
That's strange.
Now I'm curious.
All right.
Well, anyway, that's going to do it for us.
See you guys tomorrow on a Wednesday edition of the show.
Bye.
