Starting point is 00:01:56 Giving out old cables for Halloween. He's normal sounding. Too many men. with Stephen and more on this episode of The Morning Stream. There's one magical, haunted evening each year when all the scary creatures come out to prowl through every neighborhood, but here's the scariest monster of all. Do you know why?
Starting point is 00:02:14 This little witch doesn't know it, but she's taking some frightening chances of being hurt, maybe badly hurt. Her costume is very, very dangerous. Can you see the things that make it dangerous? Up your hole with a wooden pole. Ah! Scary.
Starting point is 00:02:32 Teamless interrupt us. The morning stream. Don't eat that. It's Pluto. Yeah, the twitchy fingers over here. Hey, everybody. It's a TMS show. It's the Monday morning, morning version of the TMS show.
Starting point is 00:02:55 You know what TMS stands for it. It stands for the morning stream. It's Monday, October 13th. It is 2020. I'm Scott, and that is Brian. Hello, welcome to another week of this. Would you call this reverse Halloween because it's a one three instead of a three one? Oh, interesting.
Starting point is 00:03:13 That's a fun way to look at it. We should do like, what's the opposite of Halloween on the 13th? So kids come around and give us candy. I think that's the way it needs to work. Oh, shit. New tradition. Unhashed. I love it. Today, kids need to come over and just give us, bring us buckets of candy. Yeah, full-sized candy bars.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Yeah. No apples. What do you get doing? Yeah. I watched that video, actually, I capture that audio from. It was a big long safety video from 1977 that Dunaway found. And part of it is if you get an apple or a pear, make sure to cut it up into pieces and make sure there's nothing in there. No hidden razor blades.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Yeah, I'm like, who's giving pears out on Halloween? The person who wants to get their house thrown out with pears basically. basically pelted with pairs. Ooh, that's not a bad idea this year. Maybe I'd get rid of some shit this way. Oh, there you go. Like, yeah, here's a bunch of USBC cables. Yeah, here's USB micros I'm never going to use.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Here's some lightning cables. Here you go. Oh, 30 pin? You love that, kids. Yeah. I have two of these visions, the action figure kid. You can have one, you know. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Nice. I don't know. Is today also the day that 20-year-old women dressed like professional nurses and professional instead of scandally clad versions because it's the opposite Halloween. Oh, I like it. No, I like it.
Starting point is 00:04:36 We add all of this together so that everything's like opposite day from that day. Right, exactly. And then we are hallowed in the halls of history as the two who came up with this brilliant idea.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Look, if you're going to do things like, May the Fourth be with you and all that bullshit, we can do this. Exactly. That's right. Take that jerks. Anyway. And listen, I'm not slouched
Starting point is 00:04:55 I mean because I really like those Scalately clad nurse costumes. sure whatever you know yeah no i get it the vampires have to show up as normal people before they were bit right right exactly yes um mummies are just people uh uh mummies are people i guess just a pharaoh you know and full pharaoh get up so you got dressed like an egyptian pharaoh because you're not mummified yet exactly all those things wirewolves are just a dude right right right this is before right uh-huh i love it we got this all this is all figured out you come into the you want to do something from the ring, it's just a TV that works.
Starting point is 00:05:32 I love it. It's a well that doesn't have a kid in the bottom of it. No, there's no bottom to this well. Let's talk about Brad. I've been dying to know about Brad. Yeah, so during film sacked, I told you, I said, Scott, make sure I don't forget to talk about Brad. Because we talked about Tron Ares, and I really enjoyed it. I enjoyed the visuals of it a lot. I think the story's good. I think Jared Leto did a much better job than I was expecting. I thought, you know, he'd turn in very beep-up-boop performance of like a, I am a robot program. But he did a really good job of kind of making this little balanced, nuanced performance. Sure.
Starting point is 00:06:12 But so Tina and I go to the Alamo Draft House, the big show, the largest theater they have to see this. We sit down. It's the Thursday night, the, you know, the day before the day that they always tell you the movie opens. Oh, opens on the 11th or opens on the 10th. well, Brian's singing on the 9th. Because it always opens on Thursday. Sure. And we're sitting there in the theater and...
Starting point is 00:06:35 It used to be midnight, so when did that change? I know. Midnight Thursdays. I don't do that either right. And then they started saying, well, it's midnight on the East Coast. Let's do 10 o'clock our time for the first showing. And then they just said, screw it. Let's do shows all these days.
Starting point is 00:06:47 I make sense, right. Get tickets from people who just, they don't want to sit up until midnight. Just get as many people in. Right. Exactly. Why not? May as well make it Wednesday. Hey, just do Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Just keep pushing it back. So you and I are sitting there. I think we're in the process of placing the order. And I hear, hey, Brian. And I'm like, yeah, I'm sure somebody is talking to some other Brian. I'm not going to do that thing where I look up just because I hear someone else with my name. And I think he might have said it a second time. And I look up or no, maybe it was just I waited a second, looked up to see if, well, maybe I'm not hearing anybody else respond to this.
Starting point is 00:07:23 So maybe he is talking to me. And I look up and he says, hey, like, oh, hey. He says, I'm Brad. Nice to meet you, Brad, listen to your show. Like, oh, awesome. Well, it's great to see you, man. Thanks for saying hi. And then I think, and this is me imagining it, right?
Starting point is 00:07:40 There's no, I have no basis for this other than my own assumption. But I think all of a sudden at that moment, Brad realized, crap, I'm sitting next to Brian in it in the theater. There's all of a sudden a whole lot more pressure on me. The expectations just went, we're like, like, he's now going to be 10% focused on the movie and 90% focused on, you know, not making his chair creak or accidentally putting his drink down too loud or, um, get a little rapper noise like this. Or rapper noise or exactly. It's like, well, I was going to order food, but now I'm not going to. Now, I'm imagining all of this, but the part that, and I really want to talk to, uh, talk to. after the movie because it was it was really close to the star time of the film and and uh like you said we were in the process of ordering food so tina like what do you want to get oh i get the pizza
Starting point is 00:08:35 okay i'm gonna get the sandwich bar bar so the credits start rolling and there is a mid-credit scene for those of you who do see in the theaters uh stick around for the mid-credit scene going for some sequels i think is what i've heard i think so yeah um the the credits start rolling and uh brad is up and out and his His wife is there with, she brought a blanket. She's sitting there. So I'm guessing, okay, he had to go to the bathroom. But he's not coming back.
Starting point is 00:09:02 So I'm thinking, oh, he's, you know, saying, hey, I'm going to go to the bathroom. Just, you know, come on out in a few minutes and meet me out there. Yeah. And she goes, you know, he listens to your show all the time. He loves TMS. I'm like, oh, well, that's cool. I would have liked to have talked to him a little bit more.
Starting point is 00:09:18 And she says, yeah, well, have a good night. And part of me is thinking, again, like. as soon as the credits roll Brad's like I'm out I don't want to I don't want to take this pressure I mean he has heard you talk a lot about movie stuff and movie etiquette
Starting point is 00:09:35 yes exactly and you know when Wes joined me for I think weapons no weapons I saw with the Nunnallies what did I see with Wes that Tina it was a thing that Tina didn't have any interest in seeing oh there he is right there
Starting point is 00:09:52 he's in the chat that was Brad in the chat We got Brad Jack. Oh, John Wick. That's right. John Wick 4. Or was there ballerina or? Oh, Weston's in there.
Starting point is 00:09:59 I think, man, Brad. Yeah. Yeah. No, Wes is in the chat. Yeah. But yeah, I think, you know, there's a little bit of pressure and West can, can, like he says, I can 100% relate. There's, you know that if you screw up, you're going to get talked about incessantly on the show. And poor Brad didn't do a damn thing.
Starting point is 00:10:16 And here I am talking about it for the first 10 minutes of TMS today. Yeah. But only to say that, you know, he was great. and I really wish I would have had more of a chance to talk to him. So, Brad, you know, keep an eye out for me at every Thursday night premiere at that Alamo draft house. Yeah. And if you see me there again, please come over and say hi and give me more of a chance to talk to you.
Starting point is 00:10:36 And no pressure. Like, the people that are being turds are literally being turds. Yes, exactly. So you're not part of the problem. You're part of the solution. Exactly. Somebody created an AI video, by the way, of Brushwood and jury sitting on either side of me in a movie theater talking
Starting point is 00:10:54 talking directly to each other with me in the middle of it. It's one of the most brilliant SORA videos that features recognizable people in a recognizable situation. This is the proper use of that thing
Starting point is 00:11:07 because you just need throwaway dumb shit that between that is meaningful in a meamy way and done. It's over and done. We're not going to go to a theater
Starting point is 00:11:18 stage it and record it. This is the Sora is the way for this one. Yes. Absolutely. Well, that's fantastic. So, Brad, if you're listening, it was great meeting you. Next time, please, let's get a chance to chat, and I'd like to know more about you, man.
Starting point is 00:11:31 Yeah. And then mouth sounds in his ears and then talk during the thing and then pull your phone out. Then you're welcome to do all those things after that. That's right. And then I'll just really, really quickly touch on the Beer Fest. Did Beer Fest on Saturday. Yeah. It was a, you know, it was a good time.
Starting point is 00:11:48 They've got, last year they brought in more ciders and this year tons more. So hard ciders are now a big component of beer fest as well as spirits. They have a lot of bourbons and whiskeys now. And instead of giving you a full one ounce, like everything else, ciders and beers, you get a full ounce. They give you just a sliver of bourbon. Like it is maybe a quarter of a shot. Just a taste.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Just a taste. But when you go and you hit all of them one right after another, then you start feeling the, then you start feeling the effects pretty darn quick. Yeah, I assume it adds up, just like the ounce ones do. It's just, obviously, it's more concentrated alcohols. You're going to get it quickly. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:12:30 I maybe had, I don't know, 10, maybe 15 beers, a little one ounce things of beer while I was there. But a majority of my time was spent doing ciders and spirits. Nice. And got to see, again, Wes and Mel there. They were there Wes had a beer That was getting Was it reviewed or awarded?
Starting point is 00:12:57 I don't know what the deal was But he had a beer that was That was up for contention On Friday And Wes, tell us how you did Hopefully you did well Yeah, that's awesome Wes makes good beer
Starting point is 00:13:08 Yeah, he's, I mean, I smell it on his name Yes, there you go Pro Am made it with a brewery, interesting Okay Pro Am, oh yeah, okay He said it felt less busy. Did you feel that way? Do you feel like the crowd was left?
Starting point is 00:13:21 Yeah, it was a little bit, a little bit less of a crowd, which they've gone from having five sessions a year. A Thursday night, two Fridays, too. Oh, no. I think it was, I think they had a Sunday, too. So they had Thursday night, Friday afternoon, Friday night, Saturday afternoon, Saturday night, and Sunday afternoon. And they've gone to just having three sessions. So from six down to three sessions and no member sessions. So we used to become members of the Homebrew Society just so we could get access to the members-only session in the afternoon, which was less busy.
Starting point is 00:13:57 And now, apparently all the sessions are less busy. And tickets don't sell out in minutes like they used to. Statistically, they say drinking is down in the U.S. overall. I'm not sure why that would affect a thing like that. It's the kids. It's the kids, Marty. It's these Gen Zs holding off on the traditional. vices. Yeah, they've been watching their older relatives drink themselves into oblivion and
Starting point is 00:14:22 saying, maybe I'm not going to do that. Maybe that's not such a good thing. Yeah, they're just vape. Exactly. So I spent all day yesterday peeing basically is what it was. I think, yeah, I think I pee. I think I peat. I said, going now for my eighth pee, Tina. I may have peed for you because last night, I rarely have to pee in the middle of the night. Once and a while, once. Oh, really? Yeah. But never more than once. Last night I had to pee three times. So maybe I was peeing for you, given how much you had to pee. Maybe. I had to pee so much. I had to enlist a proxy. Proxy pee. I love that name. ProxyP. Somebody put that.
Starting point is 00:15:01 It's no proxy without pee. If that's not a title in five seconds, I don't know what it is. Oh, it better be. Come on. ProxyP. Get it in there. Who's going to be the first? There we go. Yeah. Lazy butts. Hi, Kro. Yep. Quick note. Wendy was here. Not much to say, except you wanted me to say hi to everybody. We had a couple days with her a great time. Just love being around my sister a great time other than the bits you know the pain of the butt bits with john and my mom and all that i got stories i'm going to tell you this week sometime about john because man he did a thing because now he's in the facility with her he was supposed to be last wednesday it's now either today or tomorrow oh okay but he was there he came for a visit yeah i'll i'll save this for

Starting point is 00:16:18 Oh, hi. Hello. I should not be allowed a soundboard. I'm irresponsible. Yeah, no kidding. Jeez, Louise. You know who, let me tell you who the most irresponsible of soundboard is. Tom Merritt.
Starting point is 00:16:28 Now, I know we all think of Tom is like this really measured, you know, he's a guy that's going to be, oh, no, detect news and make sure we get the facts right and all that. But you give that guy a soundboard, and every other second, he'll play a laugh track or a or whatever. Like, you think I'm bad with a soundboard? Tom Merritt. guy. Intel had 400 layoffs the other day.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Yeah. Waw, wah, wah. Yeah. That's it. Right there. He does that all the time.
Starting point is 00:16:56 Not on his shows live, but all the pre-show stuff, he's always doing it. Anyway, I love it. Travis, welcome, man. It's good to have you here.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Thanks for sitting in. Yeah. Thanks for having me. Hopefully, Brian's crowns go well. That's never, never fun. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:10 He had one pop off, but then it turns out the one behind it, I think, had a crack they didn't know about. So now he's getting like a crown slash bridge. Good thing they saw that because that could have been far worse, had they not. Oh, it could be way worse. Six months from now. He'd be like, what the hell? Why is my face three times larger than it should be. Anyway, but we'll think of him as we try to win prizes for people
Starting point is 00:17:30 today. Brian, have to explain. Coincidentally, I'm going to the dentist after the show today too, but it's just for routine cleaning. Woo! Nice. Um, welcome the morning half ass is a trivia game where I'm going to be giving you the answers. I'm going to give Scott and Travis a category and six possible answers, three of which are correct. And And three, like ducking out of Tron Aries before that mid-credit scene, are incorrect. Depending on how confident you feel with the category, you can provide one, two, or three guesses. But if you get any of those guesses wrong, you'll get nothing. You get zero points for that round.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Get one right, gets you a point. Two right, gets you three points. Three right. Gets you five points. Get the points added up at the end of the show. And the player with the most points wins prizes for their contestant. And contestants will be pulled from members of the tad pool that aren't able to listen live. Scott, you're playing for Hayes Skunk.
Starting point is 00:18:19 That's not something you find in Kansas. No. And Travis, you're playing for Michael Klein-Fremont. Oh, he's normal sounding. I mean, both of you're fine. Michael Klein-Fremont, the third. It's the three, yeah, there either needs to be an Esquire behind that or he's potentially on the FBI's 10 most one.
Starting point is 00:18:37 That's right. Exactly. Yes. I just realized I didn't put games in there, so we'll talk about games after we go Here, let's get into the game, speaking of which, and get ready for this. Your first category, oh, we're going to geography because you all love geography so much. Love it. Countries that border Hungary.
Starting point is 00:18:58 Yes, my home away from home. No, the land where my people come from, Hungary. Which of these countries border it? Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Austria, Romania, and Germany. Germany. Three of those border it. Three of them don't. Wow. All right. Geography is already not my strong suit, but Eastern European geography is
Starting point is 00:19:24 much worse. Me both. Yeah, I'm not good at it either. I just know they wear tracks suits and put their victims in trunks and that's all I know. It's all I know. Wow. All right. I'm going on Hungary. Oh, boy. I feel like
Starting point is 00:19:41 in Germany pick on them too during the war they like doing their neighbors first you know when you're out of context yeah I like to do my neighbors first
Starting point is 00:19:58 all right let's see I'm doing that oh it didn't oh crap it unclicked it didn't keep yeah your last one got unclicked when you locked in I don't know why
Starting point is 00:20:09 maybe I double click that I didn't mean to well I can adjust points manually if need be you both locked in um scott you you just did you have you had three at one point no i just had the two i was i was poking around but i just ended up okay yeah um but uh Travis you've got three of them selected let's go with one that you both selected bulgaria uh Bulgaria uh Bulgaria uh just trying to come up with something else to talk about Bulgaria is Bulgaria I want to say uh Svetlina from same-sex Mary is uh from Bulgaria oh do I
Starting point is 00:20:43 have that wrong? I thought she was Romania. Romanian? I think she is Romanian. I let's say that. I think so. Well, let's get, let's pull the bandaid off. Bulgaria, not border, does not board Hungary. Ukraine, Austria, and Romania. Shit. So I was wrong with Germany anyway, even though I was wrong. You were wrong with Germany and I didn't want to say it too soon. That's a hard one, man. That is a hard one. You got one, so we got Romania. Yes. Romania, Travis got, and all the rest of the ones you chose were incorrect.
Starting point is 00:21:13 They flew too close to the sun. That's right. That's right. Like most Romanians. It's Monday. That was the warm up. You know, now we'll go in for the real stuff right now. And human anatomy.
Starting point is 00:21:23 We all know that because we've got those things. Now that's some geography I'm familiar with. Hubba. Which of these are parts of the human body? You've got the Quincunks, the pharynx, the syrinx, the phalanx, the larynx, the phalanx, and the carinks. You really had me at Quinn Cunks. I didn't know I did, yes. Well,
Starting point is 00:21:45 I know one of these I think. The Karen, how do you say that last one? Carrinks. Carrinks. Okay. That's the part of your body that needs to see the manager all the time.
Starting point is 00:21:59 Yes. Hmm. Jeez, this is this one's harder than it should be. This one is, yeah. Because they all look like they should be, right? The hard part is, like, I know one, but I know Scott knows that one. So now I have to go for two.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Yeah, one of them's easy. The rest of them are, they sound like space. Well, you're both locked in, and let's start with the one that you guys both knew and correctly knew. Yes, the larynx. It's in the throat. It's, you know, you're right there. Point to it right there. Let's look at, let's go with one that TV's Travis selected.
Starting point is 00:22:36 He went with the fair. The pharynx is also part of the human body. Oh, it's the throat of the leader of the Egyptians in ancient times. Let's go to the syrinx, which is the other one Scott selected. The syrinx is a pipe, but it is a panpipe. Shit! Not a human pipe. Your other one was the phalanx.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Which I always thought was like a, you know, when you've got an army, you have, the groups of them are called phalanxes. Yeah, or there's a, but I think they're... Yeah, it comes from something here. In the, what you call it, Age of Empires 2, there's an actual unit called that. Oh, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't remember, that may only be for one of the civilizations. I'm not sure. Yeah, I almost went with that one, too, and I'm like, no, no, because that'll be the red herring, but faring, so I was like, this is worth the risk.
Starting point is 00:23:34 Yeah, and paid off for you. Quinn Cunks, by the way. Giggedy is an arrangement of five objects. So when you put five objects on a table, that is a quincunx. Really? Yes. I have a quincunx right here right in front of me. I'm sure you do.
Starting point is 00:23:49 Hey, honey, come look at my quincunks. The Kerranks is a fish, and as I mentioned, the syrinx is a pan pipe. A pan pipe? What is a pan? I guess we never did. It's like one of those pipes that it's like a series of, it's a series of tubes, but they're all arranged horizontally. Oh, and then it curves.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Like you see pan play. Right. Oh, pan pipe. The pen. Yes. Shit. Of course. Pen pipes.
Starting point is 00:24:18 Yeah. All right. All right. Let's get to our last question here. And history is your topic. Yellow. We're going for the yellow trivial pursuit wedge. Which of these are real weird historical wars?
Starting point is 00:24:31 They're all weird. But which of these are authentic? Oh, boy. Weird historical wars. You've got the war. of the stolen pillow, the war of the grapes, the war of the badminton match, the war, oh, I said was, the war of the oaken bucket, the war of the golden stool, and the war of Jenkins' ear. Three of those are real wars.
Starting point is 00:24:53 Three of them are not. I had the war of the stolen pillow last night about 2 a.m. Sure, yeah, I'll bet. Well, I feel like these would all make great album titles. Oh, they would, right? Yeah, yeah. But don't change the one. it should be called the was of the yoken bucket
Starting point is 00:25:09 or the was not was yeah perfect there you go perfect that writes itself like you know mr typo okay oh no no no I was actually I'm mom for it I say keep it let's see where the stolen pillow just seems
Starting point is 00:25:25 so stupid but then again that's the point right sometimes stupid is real okay I've got to go three because I have to at least tie here right that's right well if you go two you can tie oh that's right yeah but if you go three you can win if he does not oaken bucket ah shit i'm doing that all right i'm in okay let's start with um you guys also like
Starting point is 00:25:56 nobody you guys did not double up on any so um let's go down the uh down the list here uh the war of the golden stool um oh my thing doesn't tell me who fought in the war of the golden stool, but it is a real one. The War of the Golden Stool is a real war. I don't know what the golden stool is about. How about the War of Jenkins' ear? Leroy. No. That's right. Travis selected this one. The War of Jenkins' ear
Starting point is 00:26:21 was a real war. Chet! Indeed. I almost did it. Almost got that. Now let's look at, let's see, Scott chose the War of the Stolen Pillow. Travis selected the War of the badminton match.
Starting point is 00:26:35 Yeah. Sadly, both of those are wrong it really was the was of the oaken bucket or the war of the oaken bucket what's the story behind that do we know what that one don't know yeah this usually usually the card will give me like a year and the participants in the war but in this case it just says um the war of the golden but or the oaken oaken bucket so entire war is based on these these things happened right the idea apparently that's wild to me yeah but they could have just been like a three-day war or something like that So I looked at the Jenkins one.
Starting point is 00:27:09 It was fought between Great Britain and Spain, 1739 to 1748. Most of the fighting took place in New Grandia and the Caribbean Sea. With major operations largely ended by 1742, blah, blah, blah. It was considered a related conflict of the war of the Austrian succession. But the idea is Robert Jenkins, British sea captain, whose ear was allegedly severed in a 1731 fight with Spanish coast guards. let's see while they were searching a ship I heard it was Michael Madsen Right
Starting point is 00:27:39 They were playing that song And it says Let's see Abba da apart from minor actions Yeah it's all because The Spanish boarded his ship And severed his ear while they were looking for shit Looking for contraband
Starting point is 00:27:55 Really? That made the British homeland mad So they fought over his ear Apparently the The oaken bucket was Maderno, I'm sorry, Moderna and Bologna. I thought that one and Moderna won that one. Oh.
Starting point is 00:28:11 And then he got the right to shoot us with the vaccines because of it. They finally put down their arms and bought up their needles and said, all right. Exactly. That's great. So which one was that one? Did you say? The War of the Wich. That was the Oaken Bucket.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Okay. That's Oaken Bucket. The War of the Golden Stool is elusive still. I don't see this. Hold on. Let me try one more place. Okay. Or the golden stool.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Yeah. It's about a poo from a golden goat. Right. Pooh from the golden goose. Oh, here we go. Golden stool sample. Once again, the British Empire, because the Brits were always fighting everybody. Sure.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Man, the people, y'all give U.S. shit. If you looked at British history. Anyway, I guess we came from them. But anyway, Ashante Kingdom, this is present-day Ghana. So that's who it was at the time. Key fact, sparked when British governor, Sir Frederick Hodgson, demanded to sit on the golden stool, a sacred symbol of Ashanti sovereignty, said to contain the spirit of their nation. And the Ashanti saw it as blasphemous and said, if off, and they fought.
Starting point is 00:29:18 I feel like we didn't just have a contest today. We had a little bit of a learning time. I like that we learned something. Exactly. I really wanted there to be a war of the badminton match. But anyway, congratulations going to Travis for winning this one. And by proxy, Michael. Klein Fremont is winning some prizes today. He is getting a copy of Tem Tem and Fruit Bus. Those are both great.
Starting point is 00:29:43 Really? Yeah, fruit, but I have both Tem Tem and Fruit Bus. They're fantastic games. Excellent. And as I type, a runner up in our seeing here, Meg's Monster is going to be going out to Hayes Skunk. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Meg's Monster Hayes Skunk, perfect. Yeah, he kind of does fit,
Starting point is 00:30:00 doesn't it? Yeah, well done. Yeah. Feel pretty good about both you guys winning what you want. I don't know what that game is, but I'm sure it's good. Meg and her monster. Well, well done, everybody. You get one of these. Congratulations. I get one of these.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Travis, I'm pretty sure that makes you sitting in for Dunaway on these. I think that makes you ahead of me by a fair amount. I think so. You're undefeated. Might be I am defeated as far as I know. To my memory. I can't remember how far back we've done these, but I'm guessing you're as close to undefeated as possible, which means nothing, by the way.
Starting point is 00:30:34 I know. Yes. Hey, so Travis, big movie guy. Have you seen either of those two Australian made horror movies I mentioned earlier? I love talk to me. I saw that in the theater and I did it for wait you haven't seen a few months back. I think end of, well, might have been end of last year. So really good. Talk to me is so good. I don't even like possession stories and they, and that one nailed it for me. I usually hate them. Yeah. I'm not a big fan of the conjuring or was the exorcism. of... Emily Rose. Emily Rose. Couldn't remember the name. Should be
Starting point is 00:31:07 Exorcism of Dexter's sister because that was who Emily Rose was played by. So, Exorcism of Emily Rose, I adore that movie. Yeah, I like that one. And the first conjuring is incredible.
Starting point is 00:31:20 After that, you get some diminishing returns. But the first one is really good. And it's impressive that it's PG-13. I'm just not a fan of, like that. I'm not a fan of possession stories. But I just, I just, I just added Talk to Me, which is currently also on HBO Max, just added that to my list to watch. You can just back to back them over there. It's great. And they fit really well together in terms of tone and everything. Obviously, the same filmmakers and writers. But I thought Bring Her Back is just, basically they are now on my must watch whatever they do next list.
Starting point is 00:31:53 Yeah, I meant to see that. I just didn't get out for it, but I'm going to for sure. Let us know what you think when you say it. Oh, we'll do. It's a Halloween tradition here on TMS to recommend our horror movie favorites. Darn right. In the meantime, it's TV's Travis, who has been here, and you've known him. Now he leaves. Bye, Travis. Okay. Bye.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Bye. You guys feel like being a little nerdy? Because I do. I feel like being a nerdy. Yes, always. Well, good, because now's the time, and here's the thing. And now welcome Stephen to the show. He's a huge freaking nerd.
Starting point is 00:32:23 Dollar, dollar bills, y'all. Well, well, well, if it isn't our old pal Steven Schlecker joining us from Hayes, send the headquarters of major spoilers.com. Hello, Stephen. How are you doing there? Hello, Scott. Good morning, Brian. And to clear things up, we do have skunks.
Starting point is 00:32:36 I was going to ask you, is there a haze skunk? Okay. There's many of them. Many a morning when I walk, I can smell them, and I have to look around to make sure that they're not near me. I have, uh, we have mice, we just found out. Do you guys have, I need advice from my friends here on the show. Nice advice. Burn your house.
Starting point is 00:32:50 So I have some, I have some of those. It's the only way to be sure. Some of those, we bought a bunch of those, like, nice traps where you can take them out and let them go or whatever. The humane, humane traps, yeah. No, screw that. Just burn your house down. We, so when we first moved here, we had. there was some mice not terrible
Starting point is 00:33:06 but we also had a cat and then that quickly resolved the cat took care of it and then we haven't had mice for like 10 years well lately we disrupted the ecosystem because the cat can't stand the dogs and when the dogs are out the cat will only go to certain parts of the house
Starting point is 00:33:21 so now the cat has you know done poorly with his duties and there are places in the house where where these mice have been you know especially now with the winter coming in we've just started to see them crop up I had one chew through my Snyder's snacks over there. Oh, no, through your bags?
Starting point is 00:33:37 Oh, no. I was so pissed. I'm sure. You would be too. Yeah, or would be too. So I think the traps are the only option I have. I don't know what else to do. I mean, obviously, we're just trying to not leave food around and all that, but...
Starting point is 00:33:47 Be nice if you could rent a cat, right? You don't want to fully adopt one, but you want to just kind of like, we'd like a three-month cat rental. Yeah. I was going to say, you know what time it is. Time for a new cat. Well, yeah, this one stays in a little zone and doesn't. doesn't really venture out. I need a cat that's willing to, like, explore and go downstairs and do all that.
Starting point is 00:34:08 Because last time we did, it was great. You need an orange tabby. You need an orange tabby. They're bred for this sort of thing. Yeah, they really are. Okay. That's good to know. They're hunters, but they have attitude, but at least, you know, they'll do with the dogs and not be freaked out by the dogs.
Starting point is 00:34:20 All right. You've actually convinced me, I'm going to, I'm going to get a tabby, and then we're going to get rid of it immediately after we're done. Just kidding. I don't want. I don't want to hear that. No. I don't want. I know you're kidding.
Starting point is 00:34:29 This is the problem. Just huck it over the fence when you're done with it. Yeah, according to Carter, that's how I get rid of cats. So we'll see what I can do. Footy fans.

Starting point is 00:35:56 up with everybody. What's that about why are they doing that? Yeah. So it is a trend that is going on right now where we do see companies that are crossing over. Like right now, everybody is crossing over with Godzilla, like Godzilla destroys the Marvel universe, Godzilla takes on the Justice League. There's an upcoming Godzilla takes on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the Power Rangers. I mean, they've done everything with that. And DZ's always been kind of reserved with that. And people are always, well, except for the Batman takes on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But the one that people have always been wondering about is when will we see DC and Marvel crossover again? And the answer was last month with the release of Deadpool Batman number one. And that was such a huge success that DC has announced more crossovers. Now, announced in the original Deadpool Batman crossover, of course, DC gets their crack Batman Deadpool number one. That comes out in November, November 19th to be specific. Grant Morrison is writing that one. But then back in the 1970s, you guys might remember, Brian probably, remembers the first time that Marvel and D.C. crossed over with Superman and Spider-Man.
Starting point is 00:37:00 In a big gallery format? What was that? Treasury. Treasury. Treasury format. Yes. Yeah. I don't remember that. I remember the sort of recent-ish, not recent, but some years ago, they did the amalgam universe thing. Yeah. That's all. I thought that was it. I didn't know there was stuff before. Oh, yeah. No. The Superman Spider-Man thing was a big deal. It broke all records back in the day. And they're going to re-release that in, I want to say, March of. of 2026. Maybe it's, oh,
Starting point is 00:37:26 I'm sorry, February of 20206. Yeah. They're going to re-release that. And then in March of 20206, they're going to have a brand new Superman, Spider-Man, Spider-Man, Superman crossover for a couple of months at both companies. And then announced at the New York Comic-Con this weekend,
Starting point is 00:37:44 Swamp Thing is going to cross over with Boom Studios. Something is Killing the Children, which will be pretty interesting. So the title of that is Swamp Thing is killing the children. Oh, geez. Nice. Wow. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:56 I always wondered when he was up there. It sounds like a Huffpo headline or something. It sounds like Rape Bage or Rapeage Bage? Rage Bait is what I meant. So if you guys haven't, if you guys haven't read,
Starting point is 00:38:10 If you guys haven't read something is killing the children is about a woman named Erica Slaughter and her job as she works for an organization that goes around and kills monsters that specifically target children. And so to see Swamp Thing crossover into this world and see how she's going to deal with that could be very, very interesting. But there's some other crossovers planned throughout the year.
Starting point is 00:38:34 We will see more Marvel and DC crossovers. I don't know if Marvel and DC knew how popular the Batman Deadpool crossover was going to be because they had a bunch of little backup stories where it's like Wonder Woman and Captain American team up, Green Arrow and I forget who, Hawkeye team up. I saw Wolverine and Batman on the cover of one of them like, Well, they obviously don't know who Deadpool is because the top says Deadpool Batman, but this cover clearly is Wolverine Batman. They did a bunch of variant covers for this event. So that's probably where you're seeing some of that.
Starting point is 00:39:07 So they were surprised by it, but to me it just makes itself almost. It's like Bruce Wayne slash Batman is such a stodgy. He's got his own rules, right? But he's like very pissed. He doesn't want everything to go. He doesn't seem needs some brightly colored A-hole Joker in his world. It's a perfect combo to give.
Starting point is 00:39:25 The Deadpool, the Marvel version of Deadpool Batman was great. That was a great story. So I'm interested to see what happens next month with the, with D.C.'s take. It feels like a little bit more evenly matched. I'm the biggest, you know, Spider-Man fan ever. You can see one right here next to me. But Spider-Man, Superman, I feel like, you know, if it really was a fight, it kind of would be over pretty quickly. Oh, sure.
Starting point is 00:39:50 Yeah. He's, Spider-Man's agile and all that. he'd probably be able to dodge a few of these heat rays and punches and things like that, but not for, not for, yeah, it's not, it's not so, so Batman and Deadpool did fight. And it's a great fight in the very first one, because, uh, the Deadpool's like, oh, I'm going to wipe the floor with you. And Batman's like, you think. And it turns into a really fun fight. But yeah, Superman, Spider-Man, the first time in the treasury editions, that was more of teaming up to solve a problem with Lex Luthor and Doc Ock, who were messing with a space launch. Okay. Yeah. That's what you do with those two chuckleheads. Yeah. I was going to say that you could do krypton bait or kryptonite webs, right? Put a little, just a little juice in your wet.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Oh, that's how you could do it. Yeah. But that would be such a fallback lame thing to do. Yeah, but it would be about the only way you could explain how Spider-Man would have a chance. Well, magic. That's the other thing. Well, I mean, historically, Superman has been vulnerable to magic. so well yeah because he doesn't see it coming right he he can no no there's just something in the silver
Starting point is 00:40:56 age it was just one of those things that superman had this uh couldn't couldn't deal with with magic and so like zatana could take down superman uh shazam can take down superman all because of the magic aspect oh well they should uh they should have the the source to a supreme crossover yeah have wong do it so wong versus batman or superman or superman or superman or superman long versus Superman. Yeah. And you call it the Wong Way or something like that. With a special appearance by Madison. Nice. I like it. Well, that's cool. Watch for that. More of that coming. And they're also making, they made some statements, Jim Lee in particular, made some pretty strong statements about AI in their comics. Yeah. So DC, Jim Lee was at the New York Comic Con. He was speaking at the retailer day event. That's where the publishers get up and talk to the retailer saying, hey, here are the
Starting point is 00:41:49 big things that we have going on. Here's why we think you guys should be excited about the comics we have and why you should push them. But one of the things that Jim Lee brought up was the inclusion or lack of inclusion of AI art in any DC comic. And the direct quote from Jim Lee is, quote, DC Comics will not support AI generated storytelling or artwork, not now, not ever as long as I am in charge. Unquote.
Starting point is 00:42:15 So you're saying there's a chance. Just kidding. Well, I mean, there's always a chance, right? There have been some, you know, there have been some issues where a cover has come out, a variant cover has come out, and someone has said, well, this looks like AI art, and DC is like, oh, you know, this is right. We have banned this artist from working for us in the future. So there are those kind of mistakes. But to intentionally, I think Jim Lee is saying intentionally going out and creating an AI generated comic book is not something in the best interest for DC. And the reason for that is, DC likes to own everything. everything that they create, they want to own. And if they can't own it, then they don't do it. And certainly with AI, there's no ownership to AI. And so that is something that DC is steering away from.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Now, the same weekend, Marvel made its statement. Editor-in-Chief C.B. Sabolsky came out and said that they would also not use AI in their comic books. And we should kind of put a little asterisk by that, I have a feeling, because Tom Breivort, who is the executive editor and senior vice president, Marvel. He said not representing Marvel. He said, well, I think AI is here to kind of stay and people should embrace it. So that was a, that was him acting as himself, not as a rep of Marvel comics. Marvel Studios has already done AI with the intro to secret invasion.
Starting point is 00:43:41 And then there's, I saw some rumor. I haven't really looked at it in depth, but the new Marvel Man trailer is dropped. This weekend, Wonder Man, sorry. And apparently the cheesy posters that they have in the background were artist rendered, but then AI touched up. So I don't know if that's true or not. That's supposed to go the other way. If you start it with AI, then the human touches it up. It doesn't look like shit.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Yeah. Exactly. And then, of course, CB Sobolski has already got his own controversy with, you know, pretending to be an Asian writer while he was the editor at Marvel. so he could write Marvel Comics under an Asian name. So there's... Oh, no, really? Oh, yeah, yeah. This was a thing several years ago back in the early 2000s.
Starting point is 00:44:25 The famous Simulski's from Japan, you know, the Sabolsky. If you ever read anything from Akira Yeshita. Yeah. That is C.B. Really? Really? His pseudonym. That's terrible.
Starting point is 00:44:37 No, it is. I mean, certainly there's cultural appropriation things that came up with that, a bunch of other stuff. So when you hear... I don't know. I believe Jim Lee more. Now, he did say that he plans to still be working at DC in 2035 when DC hits its 100th anniversary. And so I kind of, I don't know, there's something about Jim Lee coming out and stating that that I trust a little bit more than the Marvel editor coming out and saying, oh, yeah, so we also will not be using AI. It's also it's also DC's prerogative right now to kind of counter a lot of what's happening on the big corporate Disney side of Marvel things. I think this is all part of that messaging.
Starting point is 00:45:17 I think it is good, and I do believe him. I think Jim Lee as an artist and creator absolutely believes this stuff he's saying, whether or not the corporate entity that employs him that many years later will still be saying this. I don't know. But there's a part of that quote that you just did where it went, we'll be doing this until 2035, DC Comics turns 100. And then he said, yes, I fully intend to be there for that. And yes, hopefully still drawing and hopefully still not.
Starting point is 00:45:45 working on Hush 2. I mean, Jim Lee isn't notoriously slow in all of his art, but it's amazing when it's done. It's also why his art can go for millions upon millions of dollars. So if you could afford a Jim Lee original, he probably would sell it to you because he still has several kids that he has to put through college. Yeah, he's an all-time, one of the greats. And I respect him a lot. So if he says this, I believe him, at least for as long as he's there.
Starting point is 00:46:14 but I hope Hush 2 doesn't take that long. Hurry up, man. Get that out. Hush 1. I got the big old fat version you put on your coffee table. Yeah. I forgot what they called the Absolute Edition. I still, I'll just read through it just to remind myself about how great Hush is.
Starting point is 00:46:29 It's so good. Batman Hush is amazing. There's something about reading those oversized comic books where you can really get involved in the art that is simply amazing. So if people can get those, I would encourage it. They are very expensive. And if you are just a fan of artists, of course, there are companies that put out the Artist Edition. IDW used to do it.
Starting point is 00:46:49 I think Fantagraphics are dark or Dark Horse is doing it now, where if you're like a fan of Steve Ditko, there's the Art of Steve Ditko edition, and you can go in, it'll be like Steve Ditko's first run of Spider-Man, and it's reprinted at the size of the art boards, and it's all in black and white with the original inks and all that. And it's wonderful to look at that stuff. Brian would love that, wouldn't you, Brian?
Starting point is 00:47:12 Yeah. But they're like some Deco original. They're expensive. Yeah. There's a lot. I'd hang the crap out of that in here. That's right.
Starting point is 00:47:21 You'd be a true hangsman or something. I don't know why I went there. It's Halloween. You're a super framesman. Yeah, super framesman. I'm super framesman. All right. Daredevil, born again season two, arrives in March.
Starting point is 00:47:35 And so does Invincible Season 4. That's a reminder. I only got season one done and then forgot to watch the rest. Not that I didn't like season one, I liked it a lot, but I was all geared up for more invincible and then I have just lost track of it. But Born Again Season 2, that's exciting. I saw something about... Yeah, we're going to see Kristen Ritter return as... Oh, good. As what's her name, Jessica Jones? They did announce that. And there is apparently a flashback
Starting point is 00:48:01 sequence question mark with Foggy Nelson coming back as well. The foggy from the first run, the Netflix run, right? That guy. Yeah, and who also, spoiler alert, died in the first episode of morning. It's been more than two weeks. I guess we could say that, yeah. So does that mean, let's, I can't think of his name suddenly. The other guy, the strong guy at the yellow shirt. Oh, Iron Man, Iron Fist.
Starting point is 00:48:27 Iron Fis coming back. Yeah, Luke Cage, that's I meant to say. They haven't said anything about that yet. Okay. But I'll bet you Colter, what's, uh, Sam Coulter? Is it Sam Coulter? I don't know. They've been appearing.
Starting point is 00:48:41 We know that. They were in New York doing pictures of people where all three of them, Charlie Cox, him, and Ritter were all together. Really? Yeah. So I don't know if that may not mean anything. They just may all be at the thing. It might have been at a Comic Con or something together. Mike Colter.
Starting point is 00:48:54 Thank you, Amy. Yeah, it'd be great. I mean, man, I'd love to see. I'd even love to see Iron Fist make it into the MCU proper. We did get a little bit of Iron Fist in, in the Wakanda series, which was great, but not in the way you think, but in a very cool, in a very cool way.
Starting point is 00:49:16 Yeah, that's awesome. I'd love that. That series, that Eyes of Wakanda series was great. I'd love another season of that. Yeah, Defenders would be great. Cyborg dude in the chat says, yeah, that'd be great to bring that all back. Man, maybe they are, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:49:29 Seems like this is going on. I think they will eventually. They just need to, I don't know. There's all, I kind of have a lot of high hopes for, the um the power man sorry um lukech no no no the one that the new series that just oh a wonder man wonder wonder wonder man yeah too many mans i know man so many man too many man's but i i'm kind of excited about that because the trailer just feels like marvel is poking more fun in itself than she hulk did yes and it be and it feels very self-referential and very
Starting point is 00:50:02 self-aware except that we know that the main character does have powers and And that's why he thinks he should be in the TV series. And so that kind of pulls it away. Had this been set in like a non-superpowered universe where they're totally making fun of the Marvel. Sure, MCU, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the slowdown on that. That would be so great. That would be.
Starting point is 00:50:26 But, yeah, no, I'm excited for that. When they first announced that, I thought, wow, there are so many other characters I'm surprised they didn't get to before Wonder Man. But Wonder Man, I'm just glad it's not the. the cheese ball like, I mean, they'll touch on it. They'll, the thing is so satirical that they'll touch on his crappy costume from the
Starting point is 00:50:47 80s with a big W on it. But yeah. Yeah, the fact that Jeremy what's his face is in this act of Jeremy. Jeremy. Renner, not Jeremy. No, no, no. I know who you're talking about. The original.
Starting point is 00:51:05 Right from Not the bear guy Not that guy No no no no not the actors not named Jeremy The character is Jeremy Isn't it isn't the kid guys named Jeremy Who pretended to be the Mandarin In the second Iron Man movie
Starting point is 00:51:17 Oh yes Ben Trevor That's it sorry yes thank you Travis Trevor Slattery That's the third one I think Ben Kingsley yes That is funny to say it was the third one
Starting point is 00:51:30 You'll never see me coming That whole thing Right right Good times back then Well there you go. Stephen, this is all exciting stuff, and I know where to go find more of this. I can find it at major spoilers.com where you'll find all sorts of cool stuff and network of podcasts, all kinds of fun things. What's going on over there right now? Hey, this week on the major spoilers
Starting point is 00:51:47 podcast, because we are into the spooky season. This week, we are taking a look at all of the times that Batman and the demon Etrigan have teamed up in comic books. So surprisingly, it's only four times, four or five times. I don't know who that is. You don't know demon, the rhyming, or Etrigan the rhyming demon. He's the dad of Raven, isn't he? No, no, no, no. That's a trigon, or Trigon. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, there's a DC character, right? Yeah, yeah, there's a DC character. So Etrigan is this yellow demon that breathes fire, and his thing is, because of his class status in, in heck, he can only speak in rhymes. Oh, really? Okay. Yeah, but he also, so if you know that the alter ego of Jason Blood, gone, gone, the form of man, rise the dean.
Starting point is 00:52:34 etrigan and so uh so his whole thing is he rhymes all the time is yeah yeah and it does it very well too why do i not know anything about this character yeah i didn't either yeah look up etrigan the demon he's great look at that anytime that he appears it's both funny and horrifying at the same time he's kind of ripped look at him yeah yeah yeah got a big old cape he's into it yeah etrigan is basically just the like electronic form of trigon yes all right i'd never heard of either of What was the other one from? Teen Titans, you said? Teen Titans. Yeah, Trigin was the demon father of Raven. Oh, wild. Okay.
Starting point is 00:53:14 Well, so is what I know. I like Teen Titans. Yeah, demons. They're all demons. All demons. Well, that's great. Stephen, as always, it's a pleasure to hang out with you. Is there any other advice you have for us before we let you go? Hey, man, it's the Halloween season. You're going to be out walking around, so make sure that you stay hydrated. Oh, that's a good idea. Enjoy your time in the trick-or-treat neighborhood thing. We'll see you later.
Starting point is 00:53:34 Assuming they have that, I assume they do. I would hope so. I would hope so. We got a trick-or-treat street or trunk-or-treat or something like that. Something like that. Dave and Madison sent us a text I'd like to read real quick. Okay. Says, Dear Scoot and Boot, yes, Weimariners, the dog that we got here, Ripley,
Starting point is 00:53:52 and their smaller cousin breed, I don't know how to say this. Vis-A-Vis-Lis. Visilis? Yeah, Vigilis. Assuming it's, maybe it's not even spelled right, but anyway, are incredibly co-dependent dog breeds. So learn to embrace the crazy next time Carter leaves Dave and Madison. Yeah, they're Ripley, I've never seen a more co-dependent dog in my life.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Like, she is so, the minute Carter leaves, she turns into a complete mess of anticipation. Her eyes are always looking at the door. She can't deal. And then when it's enough time goes by and like Carter's gone for like six days, then she finally warms up and it's fine. But then Carter comes home and it starts the whole cycle all over again. That's Hungarian, by the way, the Zs thing, and it is the, it's Vizsla or Vizsla. Bishla. Ooh, I like that.
Starting point is 00:54:40 Vigla. Yeah. What kind of dog you have? Vigla. It's a Vigla. It's a little, little limerangera. I like it. Here's one from Jeff Sire, our old pal in balmy in Canada.
Starting point is 00:54:52 Canada! He says this. Hey, Scott and Brian. Your conversation on the September 30th show about robot umpires and baseball made me think of a few other sports tech, uh, things you might be interested in. in the women's rugby rugby rugby world cup just ended England beat Canada for the gold they were trailing new mouth guards at the World Cup that have been that have accelerometers inside that's wild oh wow so when an impact passes a certain
Starting point is 00:55:22 threshold and LED starts to flash the referees see this and sends the player off field for head head injury assessment which makes great sense by the way with totally Cucctions, yeah. Because rugby, they don't wear helmets and shit. They're just out there in the raw, man. He says, once cleared by the doctor, the player returns to the field. Rugby was the perfect sport for this test since play doesn't stop for injuries unless they obstruct play or are serious. Really? I didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:55:48 Yeah, no kidding. So if you had somebody really wipe it and just lay there. Right. And then the ball, you know, they keep playing and it's like this person's laying on the field. Well, their LED is flashing. Go pick them up. Yeah. Keep the game going, though. Don't stop, you know. wild yeah it is kind of crazy he says it was very successful it didn't interrupt play and seemed to be a useful tool for player safety this link is 30 seconds long it shows the whole thing I'd actually like to see this oh wow okay he sent us uh sent us some video proof of how this
Starting point is 00:56:14 can you put this on the screen yeah hold on a second here here we go all right go back to the he says sorry for the goofy music let's see what it actually is oh really I have music I sound off it's annoying all right all right so that was her LED she got tackled and she gets up yeah the flashing red you can only really see at the beginning there like you don't see it oh is it just showing yeah oh i didn't realize it flashed while she was uh smiling at the camera i thought that was before okay yeah so then she goes in they get she goes and gets checked out oh that's wild man and now she's all smiles and she's back on the
Starting point is 00:57:00 field in moments. That's right. They reset her thing. Thanks to technology. Goal! Well, well done. Everybody involved with that. Yeah. Thank you, Jeff. Appreciate it.

I, I'm, hoping, I can't remember if this was the year, but if I'm hoping this is the one that I just started reading it and I could not stop laughing because it was, it just caught me the right way. Not that it was, not that it was a funny ad read or a funny thing that I was talking about. I think it was a book and I was describing the plot of the book. And something just hit me and I couldn't finish the ad read. I was laughing so hard. Yeah, I have a vague memory of that
Starting point is 00:58:26 and I don't think I've ever heard you laugh like that before or since. You were really, of it. That was really something. So if that's in there, you guys are in for some fun. Either way, you're in for some fun. So check out what Jamie, what Jamie hath done with the Brian doesn't ad read throwback.

You were, you dumbass. Who believes this shit? Unfortunately, 50% of the voters do. That's unfortunately who does.
Starting point is 01:02:09 But anyway, whatever. That one really annoyed me because I was like, you were in charge that day. It would be a whole other 30 days until a new president came in. You were there. It was your FBI. So this weird claim you're making makes no FBI. sense, you dick. So freaking bizarre. Yeah. Just do us all a favor and
