Never take a Jeep to a Honda dealership.
They'll just look at you funny and nothing's going to happen.
Instead, drop that Jeep over to the URL known as patreon.com slash TMS and support us so we can keep making this show.
Coming up on the morning stream, Nuts Sunday.
Peach comma T!
Scott is louder in his head.
There's a chocolate on his sweater already, Neapolitan spaghetti.
There's chocolate on his sweater already.
Neapoliton spaghetti.
That's totally a glap.
The food.
Sorry, my rap skills.
The food's good at the hotel, but there's no atmosphere.
In space, no one can hear you scam.
AI Eaterlad.
Solo Cup Fred.
Mini Manucci.
I missed Baldcon by a hair.
Vodka Drunkinsky.
Jerry's Got Skillet.
A round of root bear floats for everyone.
Bang a gong with TV's Travis and more on this episode of the Morning Stream.
It is the ninth day of the year, and I've just had my 41st bowel movement.
This is absolutely satanic.
Ahoi, 80s.
The morning stream.
Conan the Barbarian.
Before I do anything else, a shout-out birthday to Mr. Eric Van Skyhawk,
creator of our music theme.
Yeah.
Happy birthday, Eric.
Yeah, happy birthday, man.
I hope you get whatever it is you want for your birthday at the stage.
Any chance of Skyhawk coming, of Hokuto coming to an entertainment?
I would guess a high chance since he's got, he grew up out here, so he's got family here and stuff.
Oh, right. Yeah.
It usually makes it a bit of a, you know, not an excuse, but, you know, you'd kill a couple of birds once done.
Exactly. It's like, oh, I can visit the family and my internet online family.
Yeah, this family. We're your family now.
That's right. One of us, Gabba Guba.
Just don't wear. I heard somebody the other day say, I really hope Bone Temple doesn't take off with the kids because we do not.
need any jimmies for Halloween.
Oh my God.
It's an easy costume though, right?
Just like go to goodwill and get a bunch of track suits, different color track suits and
then patch them together upside down cross.
You're horrible up your teeth somehow and you're good to go.
Blonde, free blonde wings for everyone.
Yeah.
Boy, the Jimmy's leaving impression, man.
Yeah.
I think about that movie a lot.
I like that movie.
Yeah.
I liked it a whole lot.
I can't wait for the next one.
When's our next recommendals?
Is it this coming Monday?
This next Monday.
Actually, it is next Monday.
Actually, it is right, because we had Stephen, then we had Bobby yesterday.
Okay.
And I won't say what I just watched last night, and maybe I'll save it for.
Yeah.
I'll say it for the TMS audience in particular because I just think of it.
TMS audience in particular because
I just think you guys will appreciate this.
I know Brian will.
While I was at the funeral, we went through a bunch of old books.
And I may have mentioned this yesterday and I was going to bring it.
So I did.
But we went through these old books and there was this bunch of memorabilia,
but one of these pages was an actual menu from a restaurant that no longer exists here called the skillet.
Okay.
And it was from 1955.
my mother was at a sophomore dance
and then went afterwards to this place
with her date, Jerry.
I don't know.
Oh, I'm already loving this.
Oh, my gosh.
This is great.
So check out these prices.
This is nuts.
And she wrote on here,
after the sophomore dance with Jerry and Tony,
or Judy and Tony.
I don't know who they are.
Judy and Tony, yeah.
I think that that was the double date they went with.
Sure.
April 1st, 195.
So this place had barbecue ribs with two S's for no reason.
Ribs.
Rids.
Drink salad, something called Krusty Fritter.
I know.
Yeah, let's not the Krusty Fritter shoestrings, man.
Those are, yeah, a three, I don't know.
It's a narl.
It's a weird.
Three ways to describe my budget.
Exactly.
I don't know what a Krusty Fritter is, but it's some kind of crispy potatoy, who knows.
Shoestrings, I think are.
fries. That's a separate thing. You think that those
are separate. You don't think that. Oh yeah, because it's not
salad drink. Yeah, they're all over here like
Cole Slaw, shoes, things like that.
It's not salad drink. Okay, fair enough.
So for a buck 65, you
could have the barbecued ribs. If you'd prefer,
you could have the bray short ribs of beef for a buck 45,
which comes with fresh, whipped
potatoes, vegetable salad, drink, and
dessert. Even better. This
seminola spaghetti meatball
covered with Neopolitan sauce.
What the hell is that?
Neapolitan sauce?
Yeah, is that just red sauce?
Chocolate vanilla strawberry sauce.
Marjor, out of chocolate.
Or, no, we're out of Neapol thing because he ate all the chocolate.
It's, you know, from Napoli.
A buck 10 for that deep fried fish fillet, which is circled.
Seminole spaghetti?
That's the, that's that.
I guess that is the regular flour that you use for pasta is seminola.
Oh, that's, okay.
That's just a regular pasta type.
I've never heard it before until today.
I mean, why, you know, somebody say, oh, I hear good things about the seminola.
Exactly.
Oh, you're right, Zoe. Semolina.
You're right. It's Semolina flower.
Oh, Seminole. Seminole is like an indigenous people tribe or something.
Then what is, then what are they doing here?
They're just messing up.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh, they're doing another S on the ribs, basically, with the Seminola.
Yeah.
Deep fried fish fillets. And this is circled.
So I assume this means this is what she got.
This must be what she had.
This is one of those like a sushi menu where you circle.
Yep.
So is this like a.
special menu just for the dance, you think?
Or this was the skillet, the menu
that the skillet had all the time?
I don't know. Part of me
thinks the latter or the former
Yeah, it's got to be like the prefix.
Yeah. Because of the way
they rode on here and stuff, I just have to
think that's it. But anyway, this deep
fried fish fillet fillet fillet fillet.
Ooh, okay.
Skillet fish sauce.
Gross. If you want a crispy skillet
salad, which is just their salad house salad,
$0.35 cents.
that's a hell of a
cold beef sandwich
for 45 cents
yeah
the fries which they called
shoe strings are only 15 cents
you want a cheeseburger
40 cents
how about a barbecue beef sandwich
45 cents
and then drinks
here are my favorites
we got milk
coffee 10 cents 10 cents
cream root beer 15
20 cents for root bear float
and then if you're really
feeling saucy
a nut sunday
a nut Sunday which
apparently they said
oh we can't give that thing away
for 20 cents
make it 30
right 30 on each and every copy of this menu you're given to the kids i bet they did
because i don't think that was her writing that on there uh you can get to uh she
apparently got the fountain orange a nut sunday does sound like let don't look at urban dictionary
folks so what a nut sunday is no no no no real 34 strong on nut sunday yeah if i had to guess
anyway pretty wild look back and i went and did some math on some of this uh just to see
what the inflation would be and it was crazy brand let me see oh i don't doubt
whatsoever. Let's see.
Here it is. It is.
Okay, just as an example, the
barbecued ribs
with the two S's. That would
run you between 1950 and 24
today. 24 bucks.
Yeah, I believe it. The brazed short ribs,
22, 28, somewhere in that range.
Even the burger, oh, the, let's see, the
fries alone,
350 to 5.
If you got a hamburger at a fast
food place, 5 to 650,
if you got one at a table table, you're talking like
12 bucks plus.
Yeah, which is actually, you know, usually we talk about what we're doing for lunch after the show.
Today, I'm going to the Atomic Cowboy because Westward magazine, local, local independent newspaper magazine thing,
one of those you can pick up free as you walk out of the head shop or something,
said that Atomic Cowboy had the best burger in Denver.
So I'm going to go and try it for myself, and it's just, it's 10 minutes away.
Take that taste of the Denver or whatever the hell it is.
I know.
Well, it's got big shoes to fill because, you know, my current favorite is that dude who was unchopped and his bison burger with arugla and bacon.
That thing I post photos of every time I get one.
Oh, that looks so good every time you show it.
Yes.
With a giant pickle stabbed, bent in half and stabbed through the bun on the top.
Now I want a burger.
Well, I'll show you a picture of this one before I eat it and you can decide.
Excellent.
I was just looking here at the total amount of that menu, if you bought one of everything,
the entire menu will cost you $10.50.
You just decide, dinner's on me for my group of 10 going to the dance.
I would like to walk in there and go back in time.
See, everybody wants to go back in time and kill Hitler or whatever.
that's a fine idea but what I want to do
but while you're there
grab some barbecued ribs
yeah I want to go back there I want to throw a tent on a table
like some kind of monster and go I'm buying the whole menu
yeah there you go I'll give them a 20 in fact
I'll give them a 20 keep the change
that's 19 that's right buy the whole restaurant food
why is the these aren't real why is the picture of
of Hamilton so big on this
$10 bill yeah what is happening
What is this multicolored stripe I can sort of see through?
That's right.
They wouldn't take my currency.
This can't be real.
This quarter has an Indian on it.
There's a buffalo on the back of this nickel.
Wiki Kitten says, what was the minimum wage then?
I don't think we had a minimum wage in 1955.
I think that came later, didn't it?
I think.
That's a good question.
When did minimum wage start?
Yeah, it's a really good question.
See if I can Google that.
Maybe there's an answer.
By the way, WikiKitten, easy on the caps.
Okay, all right.
Federal law didn't happen until 1938,
and at the time it was to 25 cents an hour.
Wow.
Growth and expansion through the 50s through the 70s,
that's when it became, let's see,
more federally enforced.
It had risen by 1968.
It reached a buck 60 an hour.
Well past this menu.
Yeah, no kidding.
And today, it's still around 15,
bucks, that's not enough for today though.
We have not kept up with the inflation.
The minimum wage is what we're saying.
No, no, we really haven't.
I think we can all agree on that.
Especially in our two cities probably.
Certainly here.
Oh, 100% here.
Yeah.
You can't do 15.
How do you live on that?
You got to stay home with your mom and never have a bill.
Yeah.
And then maybe 15's okay.
Dr. Cahun says 15 is not the minimum wage.
Well, what is it?
What's the national minimum wage?
Oh, I thought it was out here.
and, uh, hmm, it ain't 25.
I can promise you that.
Yeah.
Is it less?
Oh, federal is 725?
What?
Oh, you know what I'm thinking of is California was pushing for a 15 and they maybe did their own or something?
Minimum wage in the city and county of Denver is $19.29 an hour.
But that's not federal.
That is.
That's state mandated, right?
That's state mandated.
Every state's going to be.
For tipped employees like your servers and stuff like that at 1627 per hour.
Let's see, Utah.
Still 725 an hour here.
Really?
Yeah, but most places aren't paying less than 15 or you don't hire anybody.
Yeah, I'm sure.
No one's working for that low, but they just basically stick to the federal because we're dumb that way.
Well, anyway, it's good stuff.
Yeah, exactly.
Moving on, let's check this out.
Yesterday, we ate these.
Oh, I lost my box.
Someone took it.
Oh, because I told the family you better eat these before I do.
I'm sure.
I sure did not take long for those vegans.
Are those go-goo clusters vegan?
Yeah, and definitely they are not.
But I wanted to give credit where it was due.
He reached out to me yesterday and reminded me that it was H.B.
who sent them.
Who's in our chat right now.
Oh, cool.
Matthew, what is his real name?
I always forget.
I had lunch with him once.
Matthew Bach?
No, it's not Matthew Bach.
That's a different Matthew or different, yeah.
I had fish sandwiches with H.B. here in Salt Lake City once.
Oh, what time did you have those?
It was a couple years ago.
What time of day, I mean.
Oh, it was dinner because we tried to go to this place we really like, but it was packed
and we had to wait in a huge lines.
It was closed because it was too early for a fish sandwich.
Too early for a fish sandwich, they said.
That's where I was going.
I didn't give you a very good opening there.
I wish I should have.
No, you really didn't.
I was waving the flag to show where I was going, but it's all right.
It's okay.
It's all right.
Yeah.
Well, anyway, there you have it.
He has now credit.
Credit is now due.
He has received credit.
Or he was here earlier.
I don't see him now.
Okay.
He was here.
He'll hear this either way.
Did you get your, um, did you get your, uh, box of Oreos yet?
No.
Probably sitting in the, the UPS store.
I checked.
Oh, there he is.
He's here now.
Oh, is here?
Okay.
I checked the, uh, uh, uh, PO box yesterday.
Nothing, nothing new.
So maybe today.
Okay.
All right.
I don't know.
I'm excited to get it.
Yeah.
It's got some weird Japanese shit in there.
A lot of weird.
Like I can't, it's five different flavors.
It would be fun.
It's five different flavors.
I've not even like broken the seal on the top, right?
They're a little whole tab thing you got.
Yeah.
But we got what looks like maybe peaches and cream here on this side.
Maybe.
Oh.
I can't really tell.
Some sort of mint probably because of that leaf, chocolate mint.
Yeah.
Peaches and lime.
That one I can figure out.
Sure.
Raspberry and blueberry.
right here.
Interesting.
And I think Spunk.
Oh,
is this last one right here.
Oh, excellent.
Just based on the emoji.
Yeah.
You know the Japanese,
they like their,
I mean,
I think they coined the phrase,
didn't they?
It's kind of their deal.
So, yeah, yeah.
Let's go ahead and have some Japanese,
you know,
Oreo sperm.
Peach and grape says art and chicken.
Okay, cool.
Oh, peach and grape.
That's a weird combo.
That is a weird combo.
But I also think,
blueberry and raspberry is a little weird.
Is that a grape?
I thought that was a lime.
Huh.
You put the lime in the coconut.
Yeah.
Is it a glate?
Let me see the glape.
It's a,
all right,
I'll get up,
see if it'll,
oh,
that is a glape.
It's totally a glape.
Yeah,
I thought that was a lime
based on the reversed.
Okay.
The reverse cheeseburg I was looking at.
Still don't know what this guy is,
though.
What is that?
Oh, gosh.
What is that?
It looks like a peach that's been
dipped and whipped cream
and topped with something,
but there's also a leaf on it.
Yeah,
it almost looks like a glass
with,
the peach parfe type thing in it.
Oh, I think there are, there's,
there's some English writing on the back.
Oh, sweet. This is where it says, Glepe.
It's a, um, peach tea, Travis says?
White peach and oolong.
What's oolong?
A tea, like a, it's a tea.
Oh, it is peach tea then. Travis, you got it.
Congratulations.
White peach and oolm.
Nine and twelfth.
So peach separate from tea.
So Travis got it half right.
If he would have put a comma,
oh, he would have gotten it.
Peach comma tea.
Peach comity, but peach
That's a good rap name.
Even a semi-colon, I would have accepted it.
I'm going to be peach cometee.
I can't give you points for that one, sorry.
Sorry, buddy.
I'm already getting him back for what's coming later.
I don't even know what's coming later because I know we've got some potential changes to the way we play the game.
Oh, right.
This is New Year and new stuff.
It's new year new stuff.
I'm a little nervous.
I forgot about that.
I mean, I dominated last year, but I feel like.
You know, these changes aren't going to be good for me, is all I'm saying.
Who knows?
I mean, you know, did Travis decide that it's better for TMS if there's more of a battle between us or better to hear you a cheer at the end of everyone?
You get right.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know either.
What gets the clicks?
What gets the likes?
Right.
Exactly.
We'll have to see.
What's better for Travis in the long run?
And by long run, I mean how he gets treated at Friday.
like Pence, All-Stars.
Yeah.
How we maybe wait his, his, uh, his questions.
The Travis set of questions separate from the everybody else set of questions.
And now his poor team will just have to deal with the fact that he's there.
Exactly.
Yeah.
They're going to take the he as much as he is.
Uh, why did Discord suddenly do an updates?
Get out of here.
Okay.
That was weird.
I didn't even approve that.
Um, all right.
Hey, let's get to some news stories.
We've got a few here and we may as well do them.
It's time for the news and it's brought to you by.
Hey, want to help out a fellow Tad Pooligan by helping jumpstart his son's YouTube channel?
Give this 10-year-old a subscribe and make his year.
At it's Xavier R3X.
So that's ITS, X-A-V-I-E-R-R-3-X is the channel on YouTube.
He does gaming videos, toys, unboxings, and does all his own edits.
Thanks.
That's pretty cool.
That's cool.
I'll copy and paste this into the chat.
Yeah, do that.
So people can go and find him and give him a follow.
Actually, I'll even do better.
I'll find the link.
I'll actually link directly to his channel so they don't have to search for that.
For those who've been around for a long time,
done a lot of, you know, remember the instance times and all the blizzcons and whatnot.
This is Vincent Manucci's son.
Oh, cool.
Okay.
I did not know that.
So that was, it's Manucci asking as well.
So we got a young Manucci on the board here.
A mini manucci.
That's right.
Minucci.
I just gave him a subscribe, so there we go.
And so can you at home.
Yes.
I'm going to do it right now too.
Boom.
Subscribed.
Seems like a cool kid.
I know Vince is cool.
I like these weird cookie, chocolate chip cookie shorts that he posted.
Yeah.
Very interesting.
We also like chocolate chip cookies.
Well, we do.
Yes.
And boy, you should see what kind of plug we'll give the channel.
We get a box of chocolate chip cookies.
Damn straight.
Let's get to this first news story.
You can now pay a million dollars, Brian.
I hope you've been saving to reserve a hotel stay on the moon.
Oh, really?
How's the room service?
I'm guessing not very good.
Probably, let's see.
How would it go?
The views are nice.
You want them in for a pillow?
They're out there.
I'm trying to think how it would work.
This thing would have to be fully self-contained,
be able to travel to and from without ever being.
out in the atmosphere of the moon.
It needs to have like a docking bay and stuff.
It's, you know, it's basically, um, kickstart our moon hotel for a million dollars, please.
Yeah.
They will let you stay in it.
I don't lie.
These usually, my, my critical thinking radar goes off really hard with this sort of stuff
because it feels like a scam town.
Exactly.
It has to be NASA telling me this and then giving me some other guarantees.
It's not even good enough that they're NASA, honestly.
No.
And I'll let you get into the same.
story, but I have, I already have
an issue just looking at this thing. Well, California
startup is giving would-be space fairers
the chance to reserve their vacation on the
moon in advance, but it will cost them a pretty
penny. It's been 53 years
since we last set foot on the moon, by the way.
We're actually, I think there isn't there a moon
landing planned in the next year
or something like that? I think NASA has something going on.
Is there? Good. Is Kay Perry involved?
I hope so. I hope she
boobs out, ready to fire him off with the fireworks.
It's a flare.
You ready to be picked up now?
I want to see it from Earth.
I want to be down here and go.
Katie Perry's done.
Booms that can be viewed from space.
Firecracker boobs.
Anyway, I love it.
Galactic resource utilization space,
also known as GRU space,
is this tech startup that hopes to build
habitable dwellings on the surface of the moon.
Their multi-phase plan includes testing inflatable structures in 2031
and eventually making hotels by 2032.
Hold on a minute.
Yeah.
You're going to go in one year, you're going to go from testing inflatable structures on the moon.
And then you say eventually making hotels by 2032.
The next year?
Right.
It's like, yeah, we think that we think that the inflatables are going to be the perfect beta test.
All right, we're good.
Now I start building.
So weird.
They say here's an actual quote.
Design to operate for 10 years.
The hotel offers views of the lunar landscape and Earth.
that's good because there's nothing else to see.
Yeah.
Except the blinding sun when you're on the wrong side.
Can I get Earth view?
Ooh, I'm sorry.
We already sold them all.
You have a dark side view.
Sorry.
You have to lose in the Pink Floyd the whole time.
The whole time.
Yep.
So as along with envisioned experiences such as surface,
surface experiences including moonwalks,
driving,
golfing,
and other hacktivies.
Activities.
So they think they can do it.
And you only have to belly up a million dollars for it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And they think they can do it in six years by my count, by my math.
Yeah.
I don't think this is happening.
No, no.
And all right.
So you're figuring out, let's say they really do have it all figured out.
And they've got the right idea.
And it's going to totally work.
Galactic resource utilization space, also known as grew space.
I mean, could you come up with anything?
Gru space.
Like grew space.
Yep.
I don't like it.
If you're going to, if you're going to, you've got anything, you can backron him the hell out of this thing and make it like Habtown or, you know.
Luna, Luna, Luna, yeah, Lunaville.
Lunaville.
Come to Lunaville.
Exactly.
I like that.
Lunaport or something.
I mean, but you've come up with galactic resource utilization.
Like, galactic resource utilization space sounds like a background.
them right like they're oh we really like g r u yeah how can we do what words can we use to make g r u work
and it's uh i mean come on it's really dumb i don't like it it's horrible yeah yeah i would have
come up with 50 other better names this sounds like a fake video game corporation that's gonna kill
you in a space game yeah like you're playing dead town of the moon that dead space for features
the evil company g r u space right exactly it's terrible
Terrible.
Terrible.
Here's a story about an Alaska student.
This was all over the place in the news and stuff.
He got arrested.
This is kind of his way of protesting generative AI art.
So I got to give it to him for that because I also don't like it.
But he says, Alaska art student arrested for eating and other students AI generated art in protest.
He ate the damn thing.
Nice.
says the University of Alaska
Fairbanks undergraduate apparently found a way to
no one else seemed to have thought of
to fight back against AI generated art
Graham Granger
That's a cool name
That's a cool name that is a DC
That is a DC secret identity
If I've ever heard one
Yep
Super guy also known as
Graham Granger
Finds his way uptown
Meets with Batman before
AI Eater Lad
Is his name
I love it.
He's a student of the school's film and performing arts program,
came upon some AI art by an MFA student named Nick Dwyer
and promptly ate it in protest.
I don't know how this is a thing you can eat though.
Anyway, oh, here it is.
Granger claimed he destroyed the artwork because it was AI generated,
according to the report by the university police.
Let's see.
And his artist statement for the exhibit was destroyed.
So it must have been something he printed.
Oh, there it is.
Let's see.
Dwyer says this work explores identity, character, narrative, creation, and crafting false
memories of relationships and an interactive role digitally crafted before.
What?
In an interactive role digitally crafted before.
During and after.
After AI psychosis, got it.
AI psychosis, not a clinical diagnosis, by the way, everybody.
In other words, his prompt was, give me something that explores identity, character, narrative,
creation and crafting false memories of relationships and an interactive role
digitally created before,
during,
and after a state of AI psychosis.
Done, print, frame.
Yeah, frame, get a grade, hopefully enough.
Slather it with gravy and num, num, num, num,
according to the Alaska court system,
Granger was charged on Wednesday with criminal mischief and resulted in the damage of
less than $250 a class B misdemeanor.
I don't know what that'll have to be in terms of him paying out,
but probably,
maybe it's $250.
Oh, this, this kid.
I can already, I can already see, you know, the punitive damages and the mental cruelty and stuff from from this guy eating his AI slop.
Oh, yeah.
This is the student.
This is the guy who ate it.
That's the eater?
Good.
That's the eater.
Can we start a go fund me to raise some money to whatever legal cost this guy.
Oh, I take it back.
This is Nick Dwyer.
This is the guy.
What had his art eaten?
Yeah.
And there's the remnants of it.
So his art, the little squares all over the wall.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They're like little...
They look like little gummy stamps.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's really dumb.
Yeah.
Let's see.
Oh, here it is.
Judge of My Ham's photos, the artwork consists of small Polaroid style images pinned
to the wall.
They were 57 of the 160 images were ruined.
Let's see.
When you make art, you become vulnerable.
And so the artwork is vulnerable.
and that's something that makes it seem more alive and more real or in the moment.
Says, oh, so he's making the best of it, Mr. Dwyer in his stupid tracksuit.
Oh, make art or did you mean type prompt?
Type art.
He Mavis beaconed his way to start.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm sorry.
I feel, I, listen, art is subjective.
It's, or objective, it's art is objective.
No.
No, subjective.
Subjective.
Yeah.
And if he feels like it was art.
Some people think it's objective.
by the way, and those people are wrong
the people who think that. Yes, exactly.
Yeah.
But, no, he
if he believes
it was art, then it was art,
but I don't know.
Yeah. It's dumb.
The whole thing's dumb. Yeah. If somebody
were to create an AI song and then another
guy said, I'm taking that record and
smashing it, I'd kind of be on the side
of the smasher
guy. Yeah, right?
Yeah. It's a great, I mean, obviously
it creates discussion, but what's
creating discussion is not his art.
No. It's the dude coming and eating his art, which might be a form of art.
It might be. Exactly. It's performance art.
That's right. Everything is subjective.
If they were smart, they would have worked together on this and stage the whole thing.
Yeah. Yeah. Dwyer and Granger together at last.
Granger and Dwyer.
We have a, we have a...
Has your art been eaten?
We have a high school. They were kind of competitive with us called Granger High.
It's just a little mid-sized little...
city township thing called Granger.
And every time I hear
their term Granger, I just get kind of unreasonably
mad because we used to be really
rivals. Rivals. Yeah.
For a while. Then they kind of got
sucky and it didn't matter. And it was some other school.
But for a minute there, Granger was like,
I just sang Granger and I go, oh, you
bastards. Yeah. I got
no skin in that game. My school
got torn down and rebuilt. It wasn't even matter
anymore. Exactly. The school
you went to officially does not exist
anymore. Nobody cares.
Darganon says, what if a real musician covers an AI written song?
Well, if they record a song, I don't care if it's a cover of, you know,
somebody reading the phone book or an AI song or whatever.
If you create a song, that's great.
That's art, you know?
Even if you're nickelback.
Even if you're freaking right said Fred, okay?
It's still art.
We're going to get an email from the one right said Fred fan that still exists.
Or probably right said Fred himself.
Yeah, what's he up?
I know there's not a guy.
It's a name of a band.
It comes from another song, if I remember correctly.
Yeah, they're too sexy for certain clothing items.
We know.
Two bald guys.
I see them at the conventions all the time.
Do they go to conventions those two?
Yeah, they go to the bald conventions where they go to.
The one, I guess I didn't know about these.
I guess that's a thing.
Well, I'm supposed to not say anything.
You know, the first rule of bald club is,
Yeah.
Do not talk about bald club.
I feel like the,
I feel like it's out now.
Can we strike that from the record?
Yeah,
we're going to have to go see if we can seek one out and go.
We'll do a little TMS at a live bald.
Perfect.
Perfect.
Bald con.
Yeah.
Bald con.
Is there a thinning con?
Because I got that problem.
Can we go?
Can I go there?
It's the con that you get to go to before you're invited to bald con.
Oh, it's a, it's a gateway con.
A hierarchy, really.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, I'm all in.
Guys, sit back, relax, and joy, because we're about to do this.
This is Travis, and you'll do well to listen carefully to what he has to say.
Travis Crawford joining us from his home, I guess.
I listen to what Travis has to say every month when we do this, and it is not, I do not do well.
No.
Today you're going to maybe try.
I don't know.
I feel like it's going to get flipped today.
Today's going to get weird.
no, it doesn't know. Yeah, we don't know what's going to be.
Yeah. Are you excited, though, to lay
on us these changes and whatnot?
Yeah, I want to test this one out. I've got
a couple new. One is a
category we've done before, but I'm bringing
it back. And another one is a new
thing I want to try and see how it works out.
Okay. All right. Superhero powers
or superhero by
powers that are usually
martial arts training.
Yes.
Expert hand-to-hand combat.
That's it. Yep.
Brian and I will gladly guinea pig
whatever the hell you got.
Yeah, exactly.
Beta, beta test away.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So our first round, we're going to try this out.
It's going to be called higher or lower.
So I have a list.
We're going to start this month with Scott.
Okay.
So Scott, what you're going to do is you're going to bet how many of the items off of this list you think you can name in 30 seconds.
Oh, oh, wow.
I like this.
Okay.
And Brian, you have to guess if you think Scott will go higher or lower.
Higher or lower.
Okay.
You're going to make these bets and then learn what the list is.
Okay.
What the category is.
Oh, but okay.
So, wait, wait.
So do we get any indication before?
Before, so we wager.
So you, what I have is a list of character names.
Okay.
Well, know that.
But you don't know what they're from yet.
It could be video games could remove these TV shows, whatever.
Okay.
Right.
Exactly.
Okay.
So I'm going to.
How many we can name?
Interesting.
So the way this will go is it's Scott, how many do you think you can name?
in 30 seconds and Brian do you think he will be higher or lower than that number okay all right this is
going to be good um this is interesting so i'll so i can tell you that now and then you'll start your time
you're going to time it right you're going to do i will time it yeah so so the list has uh i paired it down
it's 52 items so how many of those 52 do you think you could name in 30 seconds without knowing
exactly what it is they are characters holy crap i don't feel good about this
I know. This is interesting.
I'm going to say seven.
Seven?
Seven.
Yeah.
Seven in 30 seconds.
Conservative there.
Brian, do you think Scott will name more or fewer?
I think he will think good use of the word fewer by the way.
Yeah.
Nice job.
Can we just pause for a minute and tell the people at home?
Exactly.
We know we're educated here.
Yeah.
I think he will name fewer than seven of whatever these characters are.
Okay.
Fewer than seven of whatever these characters are.
The timer will freak him out as it would me, as it has Brian Dunnway, as it does any of us.
So I do have a sound will play after 30 seconds from when we start.
So, Scott, if you're ready to name your category are characters,
and these are characters that appeared more than just one time in the Street Fighter franchise.
Oh, Ryu, Ken, Chun Li,
shit
bongo
Zangif
Oh my gosh
Dalsim
Uh
Oh
Oh
Bha
Bha
Zha
Bhr
Brf
What's wrong with me
The thousandth hand slap guy
E Honda
Uh
Cami
There we
go. Yeah, nicely done. I think I barely
got it. You squeaked in.
You got eight or nine, didn't you?
You got seven.
Yeah, I got exactly the number. Right at the line.
Yeah. Oh, wow. Okay. Yeah. Oh, okay. That was miscounting then. Maybe you.
So I got. Well, there was a couple of and huh.
Oh, I didn't count them.
It sounded like sound, but, uh, from the game, but we're not actually. I don't know street fire.
There could be a character name. I did a, I did a finger for everyone I said, but I think I was keeping track. You got seven. So you hit the
number. So Scott gets the point for this round for getting his number.
That was way harder. The pressure of the timer is really something.
Oh yeah. That's a thing. Yeah. All right. So yeah, that's a new one. There'll be probably some tweaks to that as we go. But I'd like to try that one out. And what we'll do is because we're going to alternate every month who starts Brian next month. It'll be a category. And you'll be guessing how many you think you can get. And Scott will go for the higher or lower.
Okay.
So that is round one.
So round two, we're going back to our old format of, we have an actor.
Okay.
So, Brian, you're going to start the bidding.
I've got titles of films that this actor has been in.
You're going to give us films.
We have to name the actor.
Correct.
Okay.
I'm going to start at, I'm going to start at three.
It'll be nice for the first round here.
I think he will get.
So Scott, you're going to, how many do you think you need?
This is back to normal.
Oh, right.
We're back to normal.
Sorry, sorry.
So do you think you can get two or one?
I'm going to say two.
I'll try it.
Two?
All right.
Brian, do you want to try for one or do you want to let Scott go for two?
You know what?
I'll try for one.
There was no change to the way that worked, right?
That's still.
That's going to stay the same.
I still get one. I still get three if he doesn't get two, but I get a chance to guess at one.
Sure.
Yep.
Yeah.
And I might end up accidentally.
giving him the answer if I say too much at my one guess,
because I've done that before, too.
All right, yeah, I'll try it once, sure.
All right, name that thing.
All right, Brian,
your one movie that this actor has been in.
The Born Supremacy.
Okay.
Well, there were a lot of people in that.
Mm-hmm.
There were.
I'm going to say,
Jonathan Price.
Oh, I like it.
That is incorrect.
I like the deep cut, though.
Um, okay.
Scott, you get a second movie.
So we have the born supremacy.
Yeah.
So our second movie that this actor has been in is Doom.
Yeah, you're not going to get specific about which Doom, are you?
Nope.
Um, who the hell was in both of those things?
Old or new?
Who indeed?
Okay, I'll say, uh, he wasn't in that.
Or was he?
Josh Brolin?
Josh Brolin is your guess?
Yeah.
Incorrect.
I didn't know if he was in the born identity stuff.
So, Brian, you get one more.
We had the born supremacy and doom.
And your third film, this person has been in, is Star Trek.
Oh, shit.
Oh, see, that's good for Scott.
It is so far not helping me.
Well, because you said Star Trek and not Star Trek the motion picture,
that I'm assuming it's the new J.D.
Abrams, Star Trek, and
who was in...
I don't think I've ever seen Doom unless we watched her for film sec, but I don't remember if we did.
You did watch it for film sec, I know that.
I have no memory of it, except there was probably a BFG in there.
Star Trek, Star Trek, Star Trek, Star Trek.
All right, well, not Zachary Kinto, not Zoe Seldown and not Chris Pine.
Damn it to hell.
Hell.
You need an answer, Brian.
I know, okay.
You know what?
I will all say, I know what's wrong, but I'm going to say Zachary Quinto.
Also incorrect.
It's freaking, can I say it?
You can say it now.
It's freaking Carl Urban.
Oh, Carl Urban.
That is right.
Carl Urban.
Zero points for that.
Yep.
He was the kind of secondary antagonist in Born Supremacy.
Yeah, he was really, and now that I remember,
think about it. He was actually really good at that
and I was surprised he was even in it because it was before
he'd really blown up.
Yeah, like he had done...
Lord of the Rings, right? Lord of the Rings and stuff, but he hadn't
become Carl Urban that we know yet.
Yeah, yeah. At that point.
Shoot. Okay. No one wins that round.
All right. That was painful.
We are at 1-0 with
Scott in the lead and we go into our
musical round. So Scott,
you're going to start the bidding.
And the way this is going to work out
is, Scott, you get to bid
how much you think of a clip I've got
very short
and I've got one that's probably going to
be a little bit longer
and then Brian, I have a reversed clip.
Oh, God. Okay.
And so if Scott doesn't get
then I will play the reversed clip for you.
Oh, I see. So if I don't get it.
He actually does get to hear.
So this is not a bid like he can't say,
I can't underbid him.
No.
If he doesn't get it, I get the reverse clip.
I guess I'm confused about what you said about the longer version.
I have two little bits from the intro of this song.
So do you want the easier or harder level of that?
And if I pick the easier.
And if you fail at that, then Brian gets the reversed clip,
which is going to probably give it away.
So there's really no advantage to me not taking the easy one that.
Why wouldn't you take the easy?
Yeah.
All right.
I'll take the easy one then.
And this was tough because the song is very,
was tough to find a good clip for it.
So I also kind of ran out of time.
So this was done very quickly.
But here, Scott, is your clip.
Oh, that's the Mortal Kombat theme.
That is correct.
Yeah, from the movie, right?
Mortal Kombat.
We had this on repeat in the 90s.
I love that thing.
And Brian, this would have been the reversed bit.
Yeah, I would have gotten that too.
I would have gotten it from that.
I would not have gotten it from the gong.
From the gong, I would have...
Getting it from the gong actually is pretty good.
That is incredible from the gong.
Even hearing it as much as I have in my life,
I don't know that I would have gotten it just from the gong.
It's that test your might guy, and it's at the very beginning.
Can you play a tiny bit more of that gong bit?
Yeah, test your might.
Yeah.
There's that guy.
Wow.
By the way, that song is called Technosyndrom.
Okay.
The Mortal Kombat.
We played it on, I had that on repeat for real.
I played a lot.
I believe, you must have been able to get it from that gong.
Like, guys, seriously, I'm trying to think of what pop songs that I can think of have a gong in them.
Even bang a gong, get it on, doesn't have a gong in it.
No, it doesn't.
It doesn't, true.
Yeah.
Sorry, T-Rex.
That's a poorly advertised song you got there.
You know what, T-Rex also doesn't have a T-Rex.
So those guys have been blowing it since the beginning.
Well, all right, fair enough.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Jerks.
All right.
I put Scott up two to zero with one draw going into round four.
Brian, you're going to start our bidding.
This is a classic, we have a movie.
You're going to bid on cast members from that movie.
Okay.
And I will say this one's a little bit of a deeper cut.
Oh, God.
Okay.
So you're saying maybe don't go too on this one if I want to be aggressive.
It might be smart.
Yeah.
Okay.
All right. And you're going to give us cast members.
Cast members.
All right.
So, is it a movie or TV? I missed.
Movie.
Movie.
I'm going to play it a little safer then and go four.
Four.
Okay.
Scott, do you think you can do it in less than four?
I mean, I'll try it in three.
All right.
Brian, you're feeling risky or you want to let Scott try at three?
Well, again, I know.
You'll still get four if he doesn't get it.
no real risk. So I'm just basically giving more time to think about the two that he hears first.
So I'll take the two. Okay. Even though it's a deep cut, it may not help, but you're going to give me
names people I've never even heard of, aren't you? So here's the two cast member names you get.
Okay. Jamie Priestley and Devin Aoki.
Oh my gosh. Oh, I have no idea.
Prisley, Devin Aoki. I'm going to kind of play off.
Oh, see, this is where I don't want to give anything away.
You know what?
I'm not going to say anything.
I have a thought, but I'm not going to do anything.
I don't want to, I don't want to nudge Scott towards anything.
So I'm going to say, I don't know.
And let Scott take the three.
All right.
Scott, here's your third cast member from this movie.
So we have Jamie Priestley.
We have Devin Aoki.
We also have Eric Roberts.
Okay.
Well, given where I think this theme is headed.
I can't think of
Jamie Priestley is.
I just picture Jason Priestley,
my head.
Um,
uh,
gosh.
All right.
Uh, okay.
I may as well tell you more of my thought is and then because Brian's
either going to take this or I'm going to get lucky.
But it's some kind of video game adaptation.
That's what I'm thinking.
Yep.
Exactly.
And I've,
the one I'm,
yeah.
And you,
sounds like Brian's got one.
I've got a guess.
Yes.
Okay.
The only guess I'm going to make,
there was,
that's a really,
those sound like.
like B-tier or worse cast.
So I'm torn between either the Chunle movie or the Dead or Alive movie.
Since so far, these are all fighting games.
I'm going to say dead or alive, just a bits of guess.
I don't know.
Dead or alive?
Yeah.
That's correct.
Wow.
What?
Wow.
Are you kidding?
DoA.
Dead or Alive.
That is the one of the worst movie.
I've ever seen in my life, and I'm so glad I've seen it.
I have never even, I don't know if I've, I don't know if I've ever even heard of it.
We didn't watch a film sack, did we?
No, we haven't yet.
Okay, good.
We should, though, because it's sad.
There was the direction I was going, and I was hoping I'd be able to come up with the name was,
um, uh, the job or the Eric Roberts made me think of that gangster thing.
Oh, no, shattered or, uh, not shattered.
Oh, he was a gangster in, uh, dark night as well.
Yeah.
always think of that.
Yeah.
But there was one
I think I know what you're thinking of.
He's like,
it's not Alan,
it was Alan Wake?
Was there an Alan Wake movie?
There was no Alan Wake movie.
Alan Wake feels like a movie.
Max Payne is what I'm thinking of.
Yes.
Max Payne.
I don't know if I would have ever gotten to it.
I don't know if he was or not.
I don't remember.
See,
that's how I was with this.
That was a video game adaptation.
I'm just glad I chose.
See, the thing is,
that was a real scary guess because Doom is not a
fighting game.
So I thought,
I thought I was out in the weeds.
I'm really freaked that I got that.
All right.
I don't even know if I've even heard
the video game Dead or Alive.
No.
Let alone the movie.
Do you remember the volleyball boobie spinoffs they did?
The Deader Alive volleyball games.
Yeah, dude.
Oh.
It was just all the...
Those were based on...
Those were hot girls.
No?
No, they were hot girls from DOA.
They're out there.
They're alive as its own.
Wow.
Also, by the way, in that movie is a former pro wrestler
Kevin Nash.
So that tells you really what we're getting with.
We need to film.
like that thing.
You need to.
I forgot.
It was an imminently sackable.
Yeah.
All right.
Round five, we're playing for fun at this point.
Yeah,
exactly.
Scott has won this month.
Yeah,
with a couple of,
I mean,
it was not easy.
You nailed a couple of those
really,
really well.
But around five,
it's one we've done before,
but I want to bring it back.
It's real or fake.
Okay.
So I have 10 answers here.
I'm going to give you the answers.
And you're going to tell me if you think it's real or fake.
But before we start, how many do you think you will get correct?
Oh, okay.
And so you're both going to guess a number.
And then you'll both hear the name and tell me if you think it's real or fake.
And when we're done with all 10, I will tell you who got the most.
Who got the most reals?
And you've got the...
Gotcha.
Okay.
But we have to guess how many out of 10 we think we can get?
Yes.
So you're not looking for getting the most number of real answers.
You're looking for the most number of correct answers being this is a real thing or this was a made up one or not from the category.
Yeah.
Okay.
So we are going with Tekken characters.
Characters from the Tekken franchise.
That's it going to be good.
Yeah.
I have.
Here's how many I know I can get and it would be the same number as if I just took my headphones off and went and painted a mini right now.
Well, but you never know.
You never know.
But it's always a 50, it's a 50-50 shot, so I'll totally go for this, obviously.
All right.
And I think, okay, I think by random guess, I could probably get out of 10, four right.
Four right?
Okay. Scott, how many do you think you can get?
I think I can get six.
Six.
All right.
It really depends on how obscure you get because that roster is deep.
So that's a lot.
You think 50, what was it?
53 or whatever it was for Super.
Street Fighter or whatever. Street Fighter was like 50-something characters. There's so many more in the Tekken lineup.
Now, one of the things with the Street Fighter list was I went through and I brought it down to 52 based on,
oh, this character was only like a DLC in one version of one of the games or something.
That was even worse with Tekken.
Yeah, Tech. So here we go. I'm really looking forward to next month when you do an all-cover song version of this for the guy who, you know, has two video game shows.
Yep.
Yeah, one that covers all the classics, then one that covers all the modern ones.
I've got to give Scott a little bit of that good momentum coming into the year before I crush his soul.
Oh, good. Okay, yes. I love that.
I appreciate that.
So I will give you a name, and then I will, Scott, you will tell me if you think it's real or fake.
Brian, you will tell me if you think it's real or fake.
After the 10, we'll say who got the most.
And I'll even be fair and, like, have my answer on whether I think it's real or fake before Scott.
gives his because I feel like he's got a really good shot at getting all these and so I want to
make sure here we go oh I see what you mean because we can't secretly say whether we think fake or real
that'd be cool yeah it'd be great if we could figure out a way to do that all right I am going to
I have two I've been to use my to do list my air traffic controller to do list for this oh there you
sweet perfect so I will I will hold one of these up and then I'll turn around and say whether
I think it's real or fake.
I like that.
Cool.
Before Scott,
before Scott gives his answer
and then I'll reveal it
after Sky gives his answer.
I think you just found a solution.
That's awesome.
I like it.
Yeah.
Okay.
First name.
Let me help game show your game show.
Thank you.
This is perfect.
First name,
Yoshimitsu.
I guess I don't know when Brian's holding it up.
I'm holding it up now.
Okay.
I'm going to say is,
or what's the answer?
Fake?
Real or fake?
Real.
Okay.
Brian?
I say real.
Okay.
Second name.
Slim Bob.
Fake.
Okay.
Brian?
I'd say that one's real, too.
It sounds too goofy.
It sounds too made up to not be real.
Yeah.
I'm actually kind of worried about it.
All right.
We're at two.
Third name.
Steven Chow.
Fake.
Brian?
I say fake.
Okay.
Fourth name.
Forest law.
That one's familiar, but I'm not sure it's the right game.
Forest law?
Forest law.
I mean, that's just don't burn stuff while you're out in the weed.
Have you been injured in an accident called Forest law?
We've got you covered.
I'm going to say, I don't know about the name.
something the
I'll say it's real
okay
Brian
I'm saying fake
okay
I'm saying
it's probably
somebody's real name
but but not in
Tekken
yeah somebody out there
has got that
poor
yeah
all right
name number four
Mike Hager
that is the wrong game
I'm gonna say fake
okay
Brian
I'm saying fake as well
I know who that is
number five
Johnny
Tucson.
What's his name change his name too?
And what we do in the shadows while he was in?
Tucson.
Tucson.
I'm sorry.
What was it again?
Johnny Tucson.
Johnny Tucson.
Real.
Okay.
I'm saying real also.
Okay.
June Kazama.
Yes.
Real.
Give me a chance to hold up my...
Oh, sorry, sorry.
I'm not looking at it.
I did grab it.
I know you're not looking, but...
Nope, that's fine.
Yep.
All right.
Next one.
Eddie Gordo.
Okay.
Yes.
He's super real.
Real?
And Brian...
I say fate.
He does the Capoeira.
Ah, okay.
We have two left.
All right.
Mitsuruugi.
Okay.
Mitsurugi is...
Mitzurugi.
Hold on a minute.

False, fake.
And Brian?
I'll say real.
Maybe samurai.
Can't remember.
And finally, our last name,
vodka drunkenki.
Vodkas.
Vodka drunkenski.
Might be an all...
Do you know if any of these are those alt-
characters like there's the robot guy and then there's like four versions of him um is it there
are there any of those do you know or i mean those were on the list so it's possible i'll say fake
i don't know okay and brian fake too although i'm guessing it's probably a zingief knockout yeah
right for knockoff that's a great one so those are our 10 names all right so brian you predicted
you would get four right yeah you got five right okay nicely done brian
Scott, you predicted you would get six right.
Yeah.
You got seven right.
Oh, I thought you were going to say like four or three or something.
So Yoshimitsu, the first one.
That is a real character in Tekken.
He's a psycho.
Also in the series Soul Calibur.
Oh, he goes back and forth.
He goes back and forth.
Soul Calibular.
They're both Namco joint, so they do this little crossover.
Gotcha. Okay.
Second character, Slim Bob, is a real character.
Brian got that.
There was a, it was a variant of the character Bob.
Yeah.
Okay.
Oh, that's funny.
Okay.
Third name, Stephen Chow.
Not a Tekken character.
He's a real dude, isn't he?
He's a real guy.
He made Kung Fu Hustle.
Oh, that's why that name is familiar.
He's the main actor, director of Kung Fu Hustle.
That's right.
Number four, Forrest Law.
Mm-hmm.
Real tech and character.
Really?
Really?
Brother or cousin of Tekken character, Marshall Law.
Oh, Marshall.
And that's why.
The law part sounded so damn familiar.
Okay.
So, yeah.
Next name was Mike Hager.
That is not a attacking character.
That is Final Fight.
Final fight guy, I believe.
He was the big guy with a suspiciest mayor you've ever seen.
He's the Mayor of the Town.
He's the Mayor of the Town. He's the Mayor of the Town. He's super buff and he doesn't wear a
shirt in the fight. He wears suspenders and like business pants.
It's so stupid.
The next name was Johnny Tucson.
That's a fake one. That is not a character.
There is a character in Tekken named Paul Phoenix.
Oh, yeah.
Paul Phoenix is, oh, he's real stupid.
Yeah.
Yeah, most of the techie characters are really dumb, you guys.
He's got the big, like, straight up hair, like guile.
It's worse because it's like straight.
But it's straight and it's like three feet tall.
Yeah.
It's just so bad.
Yeah.
And Kazan is there.
Oh yeah, Gordo's.
Gordo, you got.
He is Capuetta.
Loved him.
Played him nonstop in three, I think it was.
I loved him.
Yeah.
Mitsurugi is a
Soul caliber character.
That's right.
The soul still burns.
Oh, you even said that, yeah.
Wow.
And then finally, vodka,
Drunkinski.
Can I guess real quick?
Yes.
I think that's one of them,
their,
oh, shit.
I forgot the old,
they took Mike Tyson out of it.
Uh, the NES, uh, a punchout. Is that a punchout character?
That is a punchout character. In the original arcade cabinet, it was vodka drunkenki.
And when they ported it to the NES, they changed his name to Soto Popinski.
Oh, that's right. Because they, yeah, they dumb down all that.
Sure. Well, they got to, you know, not advertise liquor to the kiddies.
Basically, I'm surprised they didn't change Glass Joe to like, you know, unbreakable.
Solo cup, Fred. Yeah, Solo Cup Fred.
Oh, that would be a good one.
Damn it.
Missed opportunity there.
You can use that one next month.
Yeah.
There we go.
Yeah.
So you've probably figured the theme out by now, but if you haven't, the theme is fighting video games, tournament fighters and whatnot.
And the reason for that is my next episode that comes out tomorrow of what you haven't seen, I had somebody watch the 1994 Street Fighter for the first time.
Oh, nice.
Rolls, Pram.
It's been on my brain.
Yep.
Raoul Julia.
Jean-Claude Van Dam.
Shit-gratifter, we call it here.
Shit-gritifter.
I tell you what, that movie is still so much fun.
It's not good.
And Kylie Minogue, right?
Yes, she's Kami.
Yeah, she's great.
I love her.
You got Cammy.
Our Green Ferry from Moulon Rouge.
You got the, what's her name?
Chunleys played by an actress we all love, who was Moulon.
Mingnawen.
Ming-N-Wan, yeah.
Ming-Wan, right, yeah.
It's like full of decent actors and stuff.
They just...
It is, and you can tell everyone was having fun making it,
The problems were all behind the scenes.
Reportedly, Van Dam was doing like $10,000 worth of cocaine a week.
Oh, my gosh.
While they were filming it and he was difficult because his ego was super inflated at the time.
This is what I read.
Wow.
But Raoul Julia being Raul Julia just brought it and he's worth that movie.
Oh, yeah, worth seeing it for him.
That character is played by the Dasmouch-chan guy.
Oh, yeah.
And the new one.
He'll be David Dasmaltz-Malcine in the new one, which.
Yeah, that's coming out soon, right?
That looks like a party.
I think it's like October.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
This year.
Yeah.
But it looks like it's going to be a lot of fun.
Is that he man going to come out around the time,
or Masters of the Universe is going to come out around the time of Nurtacular.
It would be perfect if it does.
Oh, my gosh, dude.
I think so.
Can you imagine?
I don't remember.
That might be the only Jared Letto role as Skeletor that I'm not as concerned about.
I feel because it's all so silly to start with that you may as well just go and put whoever you want in there.
Right.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Kind of excited.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So yeah.
Very cool.
Fighting games.
And definitely it was fun to talk.
It was also fun to talk about video game adaptations in movies because a game like Street Fighter in the mid-90s, it's all marketing to make a movie out of that.
There's no story.
I mean, there was, but nobody's reading those manuals.
No.
I mean, they can't.
I did, but I didn't walk away with any kind of great narrative ideas.
Yes.
Exactly.
really terrible in those games at that stuff.
Actually, most video game adaptations have been terrible until recently,
so we're in a new era where, you know, we can actually pull it off.
Oh, and to fill you in, Jamie Presley is the blonde from My Name is Earl.
Yep.
Oh, Jamie Presley, right.
She's also the one that was like the, she was in that movie where she was like killing everybody.
What was that called?
She played joy on My Name is Earl, but then in this movie, the only other things,
think I knew her from.
What was that called?
Anyways, like a revenge.
Girl on Revenge.
Killing everybody left and right.
And I don't remember.
She's also like Margo Robbie's doppelkanger.
She really is.
It's creepy how much they look alike.
It's like Jennifer Lawrence and,
oh, Helen Mirren.
Yeah, it's like a young Helen Mirren and Jennifer Lawrence.
Yeah, it's just like a generation apart kind of thing.
Sure.
Yeah.
Dang it.
What is that name of that?
Oh, just check the chat.
Poison and Ivy says Derry Tolbert.
not a DC property, but...
No. I think that was the movie.
She might have done the voice of Poison Ivy
and something is what Jerry's...
Oh, is that what he's referring to?
Not in the Harley Quinn show, because that's Lake Bell, but...
Oh, no, here it is. He's right. It's a live action movie called Poison Ivy,
1992. Oh, the movie is called Poison Ivy. So not...
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Not connected to the DC... That's right.
I think... Hold on. Is that really her, though?
Or is that Drew Barrymore? Oh, you know what? Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong thing.
Ah, I can't freaking remember.
Anyway, she shows her boobs a lot in it.
There you go.
Yeah.
Masters of the Universe expected to be released on June 5th.
Oh, wow.
Perfect timing.
Okay.
That would be a great, you know, arrive a day early.
Go see Masters of the Universe or whatever.
Whatever you got to do.
Midnight show or something during the event.

Brian, let's get.
Oh, I almost forgot.
You know what?
I have to talk to Brian about it first.
I'll tell you guys tomorrow.
Sorry, Johnson Poll, but I'll tell Brian and then we'll talk to you.
Okay.
Brian, speaking of which, let's play a song.
Do you have any else?
I have nothing else.
Yeah.
Yeah. Look for a new soundography
today. I can't remember what the
episode that's going up today is, but
we just did. Last week was
our, what have they been doing?
So basically we look at season four
of soundography and see
what new things have happened with
all of the bands and
artists that we covered that season.
And quite a few. Like, you know, these are still,
a lot of them are still live and still active
and producing music. So we talk about what they've all been doing.
but today comes out an episode about our regular standard style of episode where we listen to an entire library
entire catalog of an artist and give our highs and lows and that sort of thing.
The other thing sounds like a literal version of where's that guy, you know he's got talent, kind of.
A little bit, yeah.
Right?
Like where the heck did they go?
They seemed like they were good.
Exactly.
Oh, I'm trying to see if I can, while you're stalling and seeing if I can find, I know it wasn't intentional stall.
No, I know you mean.
It's fine.
It is, uh, uh, come on, come on.
Depeche Mo, you heard of them.
Oh, I heard of, I've done heard of them.
You done her to them.
15, 16 albums we listen to all the way from the Vince Clark years or year, first album, all the way to the newest, brand newest stuff.
that Memento Mori that came out a couple years ago.
What do you think of the new stuff?
Did you really land on that?
I feel like it's,
it hasn't hooked me like
like playing the angel and violator
and exciter and ultra, things like that.
I'm,
I saw Depeche Mode at Red Rocks
with my girlfriend of the Times City Alpine
who stole my Depeche Mode T-shirt.
Oh shit.
And it was for the some great reward
tour.
Yeah.
And so that is still my,
my era.
Black Celebration, some great reward.
Yeah.
I mean, Violator's an all-timer.
It's like impossible to ignore.
But it's, you know, that, that
mid-80s, mid-to-late 80s era for me
is my peak, Depeche.
Yeah, the new stuff just struck me as a little farty,
a little arty farty.
Yeah, yeah.
Not a lot of grooves I can like put the head into.
And it still, you know, it can't all be industrial,
industrial
you know
not fun
there has to be a little bit of fun
A little bit of fun
Exactly
And these guys are just like
A little dour
I'm like no man
You guys have a lifetime
An awesome success
Let's do something fun
Exactly exactly
Anyway but we should play a song at the end of the show
That is nothing to do with Depeche mode
And I'm getting my glasses on because
This
I swear to God
This email came to me
With light gray text on a white background
Oh shit
So at first it looked empty until I said, no, there's words there.
And I know it was some accidental thing like maybe his dark mode was on and somehow it forced the words into dark mode.
I don't know.
Anyway, Jay Pippetone emailed, and I usually don't even take emails, but I did in this case.
You get your, get your things in.
Is the request for him back working or back?
All that stuff is up there.
Yep.
You can get into it all.
Frogpence.com slash TMS.
Yep.
Hi, Brian.
I was recently talking to a coworker about music.
and when I told him one of my favorite bands was him,
H-I-N-H-Mhernal Majesty,
he turned me on to a bluegrass version
of their song, Wings of a Butterfly.
I was skeptical at first.
Dear Penn House, I was skeptical at first.
But when I got home,
ask your parents about Penthouse for him.
But when I got home and listened to it,
I was hooked.
Can you play Jesse Siren and the Groundbreakers,
Wings of a Butterfly?
That would make my day.
Thank you for the content.
Jay from Milwaukee,
Doc Brown in the tadpole.
Okay, Jay.
And there you go.
I love Milwaukee.
Go take a selfie
next to the bronze,
bronzy Fonzie.
Oh, yeah,
the bronzy Fonzie.
I don't know if they call it.
They don't call it.
Yeah, I was going to ask.
I just came up with that name.
The Bronzy Fonzie Fonzie.
But they should.
The Bronzy Fonzie.
All right.
Never too late to get a title in you guys.
That's a good one.
That's right.
Yeah, it's quick.
Bronze Fonzie.
Anyway, yeah, this is called
heart of grass, an acoustic tribute to him, came out in 2005. The whole thing, it's, it's all
bluegrass tributes to his infernal majesty. And it's really good. After I, after I played this one to
get it for the show, I listen the whole thing. I'm like, this is all really, really good. So I'm loving it.
Wings of Butterfly. Here it is going out to, uh, Jay.
Reap out the wings of a butterfly for your soul.
Mine is out the wings of a butterfly.
Hopeless mercy,
side by side with help trees over in a name your love.
Mine is a reap out the wing of a butterfly for your soul.
Your soul is part of the Frog Pants Network.
Yes.
