This is the morning stream for Monday, June 29th, 2026. I am Scott Johnson. That is Brian Ibit.
Starting point is 00:01:18 Good day. Hello, back. Back from Utah. My second trip to Utah this month. Yep, June was a Utah month. It really was. It was Utah and Vermont for me. It was, I was talking with Hammond about this today. I think it came out pretty close to 50-50 nights I spent away from my bed. Nights I spent in my bed. Yeah, I didn't even think about Vermont. June was barely a month for Brian and Colorado. Yeah, it was three days between Vermont and Salt Lake, the first of the Nurtacular trip.
Starting point is 00:01:50 And then after that, it was about 10 days and then back out to, no, less than 10 days. Oh, no, about, I'm sorry, more because it's like 13 days. Yeah. And then back out to Utah for another two days. Just long enough to have some. flooding. That's right. No, even though I did wake up in the middle of the night on Thursday night before the
Starting point is 00:02:15 Friday drive to Utah and I did go downstairs, there were no squishy surprises waiting for me. Oh, thank goodness, dude. Yeah. That's good news. Yeah, exactly. It was like, you know, client emailed me. Let me see if I can take care of their issue before I go instead of saying, nope,
Starting point is 00:02:32 I'll have to wait until Monday, but I took care of it and they went back to sleep. Nice. Well, I can tell you this. Kim and I went up to Logan to root Brian on and we hung out with KT Data and Rose Kitty and, of course, Tina and Barb. Tina and Barb. We had a blast with Aunt Barb. I think she's funny as hell, dude. She is a riot. She is absolutely hilarious and sometimes intentionally so and sometimes unintentionally so. Yeah, the unintentional moments were my favorite ones, of course. For sure. Just super fun to hang around with. So we did a lot of like Brian would be on a huge leg and we'd say, all right, we're going to meet him at the stop thing. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:03:09 And it was so pathetic because at one point, I was kind of dehydrated myself. Uh-huh. And I just hadn't been drinking that morning. And the night before, I got really bad heartburn from this Mexican food we had in Logan. And the food was amazing, but that's part of the problem. It was like super legit and authentic.
Starting point is 00:03:26 And I was not ready for that right before bed. So all night, it was like, oh, my gosh, I'm going to die. So I didn't drink a lot of water. And the next day, I just started to feel it. So I'm just like a little dizzy and woozy. And I'm thinking, yeah, Brian's pumping his legs, his pistons out there, like a maniac. And I'm over here going, eh, I'm going to be whatever. So I went, got one of those little pickle packs.
Starting point is 00:03:48 But it was one of the, it was the warm ones. The warm ones. The warm ones are horrible. Yeah. No, it's so much better when they have them chilled. So, yeah, let's give a big recap of the thing. So got out there Friday afternoon or Friday. evening with George Barb and Tina, four of us drove out there and got the bike dropped off at the
Starting point is 00:04:12 place because they were storing it overnight, which made it so much easier to not have to load it up on the car the next morning and get it out there. And that morning, Saturday morning, so Friday night, we're watching clouds rolling in, and there's some wind. It's like, Logan, not looking super great on a Friday night. Yeah. And the morning we get up about 5.30, 6 o'clock. We open the door to the Airbnb, and it's howling wind and rain coming down. It is like, I'm saying, this is going to suck.
Starting point is 00:04:46 This is going to be the worst, you know, ride I've ever done. And the plan was the 35-mile ride, right? Like, we had the four different choices, the 35, the 47, the 60-something, no, 70-72, and then quote unquote 100, which we found out later was 99.1. So the 100 people usually were doing laps in the parking lot before they crossed the finish line. So they could really say they did 100.
Starting point is 00:05:14 So I'm thinking, I'm not even going to make the 35 miles with this crap weather. Like it's cold. I plan for the cold, right? I've got the sleeves and I've got a windbreaker. I've got legging things that I can pull up. So I've got my bike shorts and my bit. or what's my bib is my bike shorts my bike shorts in a jersey and um but that's short-sleeved and shorts
Starting point is 00:05:39 you know on the bib so i have these separate like sleeves you pull up your arms and pull up your legs that um have a a rubberized insert on the ends so that they're not supposed to fall down you can like put pull them up on your leg then pull your shorts down over it or pull it up on your arm and then pull your shirt down over it and it'll it'll stay up because that kind of rubbery grip on your on your arm sure and when you're standing there wearing that stuff you are so glad you have it because it was still it was still cool like when the ride started the ride started the sun came out the rain stopped the wind kind of stopped for the most part and weather-wise we lucked out it was still cooler like i like to i like to write in 60-60
Starting point is 00:06:28 degrees or more. Between 66 and 76 is my sweet spot. That's like the perfect temperature for me. Not too hot on the 76 end of the scale? No, it gets a little warm, but if I'm going to, you know, I don't want to just say 66 to 67 is my sweet spot. So I'll give it a, I'll give it a 10 degree range. You get into the 80s and that's when I start getting kind of miserable. But usually when you're moving, even if it's 76 degrees, the cool air hitting you cools you off if it's sure, if it's just in the 70s. Makes sense. But this was like 58,
Starting point is 00:07:02 57, somewhere around there when we started. It was chilly. I almost forgot to bring a jacket. I would have been cold and I didn't even ride. Yeah, Barb didn't pack warm clothes. Like,
Starting point is 00:07:11 she was not prepared. A couple other people didn't. So, but I'm in this, like, really nice Columbia windbreaker, which basically acts like a, um, a boiling bag vegetable steamer.
Starting point is 00:07:24 Yeah. And it's keeping me warm but boys it also trapping all of that sweat and moisture and and uh heat inside which is good until it's time to like take it off and put it back on or you're going to take it off to take the sleeves off and then you put it back on and it's like so cold because it's like moist inside is this this is the jacket right here everybody there it is right there yep that was stop number one that's right yep my kids asked what this thing was I said it's a rear view mirror over his eye, right?
Starting point is 00:08:00 It is. Yeah, it's a right. Exactly. Yep, which comes in super, super handy because you should see those, those leggings are sliding down my legs. This is my favorite part right there.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Yeah, just decided to pull those off and let some air get into my, to my calves. I think it's a cool look, actually. Yeah, absolutely. But yeah, no,
Starting point is 00:08:20 the side view mirror, because you're on streets that have cars, and so you have to be aware that there's going to be, you know, if you're passing another cyclist, you got to make sure that there's not a car coming. And for the most part, Utah drivers, like Colorado drivers, are very respectful to cyclists.
Starting point is 00:08:39 And they get over into like the next lane to avoid, you know, being close to a cyclist. Sure. If there's room, they will cross over into the oncoming traffic lane, pass everybody, and then get back over. There were a couple people who were like barely scooted over to where I could have slammed, my hand against the side of their car and would have if I, you know, had the wherewithal to do it
Starting point is 00:09:04 because they were super close, way too close. You're supposed to, law is three feet. You're supposed to give three feet. Yeah, and there was, these are not high traffic areas. So it should have been easy for almost all of them, unless there was some specific situation to have plenty of room. Like, we were almost always in the opposite lane because there's nothing oncoming. So we were riding past riders, which is quite a bit, we were always way over on the side. It was not a problem. but once in a while we'd see a driver like trying to hug the riders. I'm like, what are you doing? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Oh my God. Just so irritating. And honestly, if like, all right, if there's oncoming traffic, you just wait. You slow down and you wait for the oncoming traffic to go by. And then you can creep into the oncoming traffic lane a little bit so you can give the riders some room. Yeah. You're in Benson, Utah. There are 750 of you.
Starting point is 00:09:48 You can till, you can take a little time. Exactly. Exactly. Oh, so irritating. Yeah. So we were doing the ride. We see everybody at the first rest stop. We're like, all right.
Starting point is 00:10:02 Oh, so cool. There's Scott and Kim and KT Data and Noel and Barb and Tina, you know, grabbing everybody, getting everybody together. And the ride is sponsored by Harmon's, which we learned a few weeks ago, is a grocery chain or which I learned a few weeks ago as a grocery chain out there. One of the guys, Bob Harmon, I guess is his name. One of the brothers. Yeah. Yeah, he rode in the, in the. ride. So he was actually out there doing the bike ride along with all of his
Starting point is 00:10:28 team, his employees doing their thing. He's known here locally as pretty avid rider in general, but he's real big on like charity rides and that's cool that stuff. So I think that's why they're so involved in it. But yeah. That's awesome. Yeah. But because it was sponsored by a grocery store, usually at the stops, there's like chopped up, you know, you get bananas that have been cut in half. So you can eat half a banana or a Clementine, maybe a couple of pickles. pops, refill your water, things like that. But because this is sponsored
Starting point is 00:10:58 by a grocery store, it was like huge long picnic tables full of Oreo packs and nutter butter packs and Swedish fish for some reason. I feel like that that's the wrong thing to eat. 100% the wrong thing to eat. All these people have freaking crowns
Starting point is 00:11:17 and fillings and that stuff just sucks that shit out of your face. Exactly. Oh my God. And it's like you know, trying to, trying to breathe. and chew on a Swedish fish at the same time. Oh, his wife. I didn't know Bob Harmon's wife had MS. That's that I also explained twice.
Starting point is 00:11:31 Yeah. So into it. Okay. It makes sense for sure. But then also lots of bottled water, lots of, lots of other kind of snacks, lots of granola bars,
Starting point is 00:11:42 things like that. So it was really, really good spreads at all of the, at all the waste stations. You made the right choice with that nutter butter on that first stop. Yeah. Peanut butter is a,
Starting point is 00:11:53 you know, peanut butter is a great protein. thing. Those those are just great. I freaking love those. They are. They're one of my favorite cookies. I think, you know, don't let the fine folks at Oreo hear this, but I kind of prefer the
Starting point is 00:12:05 nutter butters. I'm a big number of. Of all of the like mass produced Nabisco style whatever business. Yeah. Pretty damn good. Pretty damn good. And you know what? Nutter butter has never felt the need to say, to come out with any variations.
Starting point is 00:12:20 I don't ever remember seeing like a, here's strawberry nutter butter. or BTS-flavored nutter butter. They're all nutters and their butters and that's it. Exactly, and that's it. Yep, I appreciate that about them. So we see everybody that one, you know, the photo Scott had. We leave that rest stop. And as we're coming to this intersection,
Starting point is 00:12:42 we see all the arrows pointing to the right. And then another set of arrows, the same three colors. So there are three color, or there are four colors for the ride, yellow for the 35 mile ride green for the 47 purple and blue I think for the two the hundred and the 70 something
Starting point is 00:13:00 so George and I follow everybody else and we start going to the right and as we're coming to the right we see oh I didn't forget to mention that first big hill and I was going to show the the graph that had like that that hill
Starting point is 00:13:17 yeah here's a thing it's a nice reminder to remember that visualizations are often they scale up if you're not looking in the full picture. Oh my gosh, that freaked me out. I couldn't believe you did that hill. That was crazy. It's an insane hill.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Let me see if I can find it really quick. It's also not, it kind of creeps up on you, right? It's not like a sudden hill. It's like a... Yeah, you come around a corner and let's see. Oh, it's ride with GPS is the... Ride with GPS.
Starting point is 00:13:42 Utah, ride with GPS. Okay, here we go. Yeah. All right, so I'm going to give this to Scott. You can put this lower part on the screen. Okay. do do do let me find the TMS there it is and paste okay all right so clicking it at the bottom of that map side here we go yeah and that's the 35 mile route so on the bottom there you've got that red
Starting point is 00:14:08 graph yep and um you can see there's like you know you leave the place there's a little uphill then there's a nice lot of downhill and then it comes to this other hill which kind of goes straight up And then another little straight up bit it kind of tops it off and goes it goes even further. Now over on the left side. So remember remember that hill, right? Keep your eye on that. Yep. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:36 Now click on the 47 mile. A box, checkbox. Okay. There it is. That's the 47. Okay. Now, when you're looking at that 47 thing, that first little blip. of the um oh did jen yeah yeah yeah that first little blip that you see down there before that big hill
Starting point is 00:15:00 that first little blip is was that 35 mile big hill so this bit you saw here whoops here nope that's the 73 that one sorry uh 35 there you go there is 35 there it is yep that blip you see there right is that little blip that little thing before that other big hill I love that so much. And because George and I turned right and followed the crowd, all of a sudden we're on the 47 mile ride. And I realized it about a mile in when I'm like, wait a minute, from the 35, we were supposed to go just straight west from that rest stop.
Starting point is 00:15:40 Yeah. So I told Georgia said, I think we're on the 47. He's like, oh, geez, okay, do you want to turn around? And I'm like, we're still peddling, still going up that hill, by the way. and said, do we want to turn around? Do we want to turn around? I said, I asked George, because he had a wreck a week ago. He crashed on his bike and he was covered with scars and stuff from that.
Starting point is 00:16:00 Yeah, at the finish line, his knees were all banged up. Yeah, that's from the crash last week. Dang. So, uh, it's a great face. I love it. So we're about a mile into the 47. He's like, well, we can turn around. Do you want to turn around?
Starting point is 00:16:19 I'm like, yeah. Well, how do you feel bad? Do you want to do the 47? He's like, I could do it. I'm like, all right, I could do it too. Let's do the 47. So we decide last minute to upgrade from the 35 to do the 47, which I was not planning on.
Starting point is 00:16:35 No. I mean, when I hit 24 miles in this ride, I had already gone longer than any training ride I had done this year. 23 miles was that ride I took in Vermont, where I nearly passed out because I forgot to eat. And it was only 23 miles because I had three miles of riding around Burlington trying to find the bike rental place to return the bike. And you're just running on a single nutter better at this point.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Running on a single, whatever I was in Vermont. But yeah, so at this point, at least I've had breakfast. I've been hydrating, been drinking a lot of water. I had scratch. Big thanks to musical chemist. in our tadpole. She sent out a bunch of scratch powder for the ride. And then I did have a pack of nutter butters and a couple pickle juices when I left that stop.
Starting point is 00:17:30 So we're like, all right, let's do the 47. So we go up, we do that massive hill. And it's just a beautiful view once we're at the top of that. Like the, you got mountains behind us because, you know, it's in the valley. Mountains behind us. And then this beautiful mountain view that we're looking at ahead of us. And then this steep drop that you could also see on that same. on that same red elevation map and it's just this great nice downhill then there's like you know for the rest of
Starting point is 00:18:00 right we're thinking cool rolling hills no problem no if you look at that 47 again yeah do you want to pull it back up yeah there it is right there yeah you've got that big hill that nice drop at about mile 20 yeah and then you go four more miles and then you go four more miles and then you then there's that thing that looks like just a sad little hill right it just doesn't look like right here nope nope keep going the left uh about about 25 right before that second stop that's the guy right there and it doesn't look like much especially compared to that big hill we just went up right no that hill is like it is a steady uphill it is a one mile let's see what does it go from it goes from elevation 45, 46 to 4850, no, 4650.
Starting point is 00:18:57 So in half a mile, you're doing a about 200 feet of elevation gain. Jeez. And that is the thing that almost killed me. To the point where I'm like, I'm going up the hill, it's rounding a corner. I'm seeing cars kind of disappear. So I'm like, cool. We get to the top of this curve and it's nice downhill. That's the crest of it.
Starting point is 00:19:17 beautiful we come around the corner and it's like oh no that's not the crest it continues up more crest more more hill and i'm like lowest gear this old lady that i passed uh who had the bib 17 a uh you know elderly lady probably in her 70s yes are just keeping on a nice little even paste you do do do do do by i zip by her on that you know on that straight away and then I get up to like two thirds of the way, three quarters of the way up this hill, and I am just gassed. I like, dude, I've got to stop and catch my breath. The walls are starting to get gray around my view.
Starting point is 00:20:02 The sweat is dripping into my eyes. I can't get comfortable. I'm like, George, you can keep going. Get to the top of the hill. It's fine. And I will meet you up there. So I stop. He's like, nope, I'm stopping with you.
Starting point is 00:20:15 Take your time. Catch your breath. Do whatever you need. need to do. Just, you know, we're not in a race. It's not, there's no hurry. Just, just catch your breath. So, like, I step off the bike.
Starting point is 00:20:28 I put my, my arms on my handlebars, like, kind of cross them. And then I just put my head down. And I'm like, try to take deep breaths and trying to catch my breath. And then the little old lady goes right by. Zip right past there. Just on her little, whatever lowest gear she's in. Do do, do, do, do. do do I didn't see if she was on an e-bike
Starting point is 00:20:48 but I don't care whatever she zipped past me however she did it. Yeah I think she was I think she was just raw I was raw dog in it she was on a I think she was just on a regular bike because I think which made it all the funnier when she at the end we're at the table at the place where everyone's done
Starting point is 00:21:03 and they're eating and this guy's playing music and she comes in and just like gives Brian the biggest thumbs up good ride today and it was super legit and genuine she was it wasn't like a meaner you know it was like a good job and And yeah. That's great.
Starting point is 00:21:18 So yeah, I got back on the bike after that and made it the rest of the way. Fortunately, it wasn't enough of a hill that I had a hard time starting the pedaling again. Usually if it's like a really, really sharp hill, you feel like you're, if you step off of it, you're done because you're never going to get the momentum back to start pedaling again. You're better off just walking to the top and then coming down. Sure. But once we got past that, oddly enough, took us right back to the very same. same rest stop that we had met you guys at before. And then it was a nice like, geez, how many miles?
Starting point is 00:21:55 That was a 20 mile, 26, and then we didn't see you until mile 40. So another 15, 14, 15 miles of just straight away, straight south with a headwind down to whatever elementary school we met you guys at for the second or the third, stop. Oh, yeah. You looked pretty I was, El poopedo on that one.
Starting point is 00:22:21 I was, I was wrecked at that point. It helped that you guys were all out there like cheering and... We had cowbells. Yeah, and pom-poms. That was great. I think Barb brought all that stuff,
Starting point is 00:22:32 but... She did. We happily borrowed it. Yeah, she wore two-two. She looked like one of the fragile rock puppets. In that thing. Yes,
Starting point is 00:22:40 exactly. Yeah. But then you just had like a nice little seven-mile straight away east again with with a crosswind instead of a headwind i don't know which is worse and then uh crossing the finish line and uh you know having you guys there having uh kevin and noel of course tina and barb that's what makes it so much easier because you want to you know that all those people are waiting for you at the finish line and you don't want to disappoint them and you don't want to uh you don't want to make them wait longer yeah they've already been waiting but she had that kid there at the
Starting point is 00:23:15 that was attached to a power tool. Jeez, Louise, that thing was obnoxious. It scared me. I heard it the first time I went, ah, what are we doing here? Yeah. And his kid was just running around and going, hurt, hurt, and I'm like, all right.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Where's his dad? That was, dumb. That was absolutely obnoxious. But no, we made it. And it's funny because the whole time leading up to this on TMS, I've been saying, yeah, I'm doing the 35. No problem.
Starting point is 00:23:39 I'm doing the 35. I'm fine with that. I'm okay with that. And then we ended up doing the 47. And I'm glad we did. If you didn't ask me at Mile 25, I would say I'm glad we did the 47. Sure. Well, that's great.
Starting point is 00:23:54 Yeah. There's more to say. We'll talk more in future episodes and all that. But I'm glad that it all worked out. Brian did great. The place was beautiful. I feel a little bad for some of your team who did the long, long one because I got hit with a hail storm. I got all bunged up in that.
Starting point is 00:24:09 They got stuck. They like kept them at one of the lunch stops for an hour. And that's what sucks about that. You know, you've got this rain pouring down and hail and telling people to shelter inside. When you're stuck in a place for an hour on a ride like this, it almost feels like you're starting from scratch when you finally go. Like you've lost all of your energy and your power that you've been building up. It's almost like you, you know, you went and had lunch somewhere, laid down for a little bit and then tried to start cycling again. Yeah, that's a lot.
Starting point is 00:24:40 Yeah. But I'm glad they got back. when you know yeah yeah they did by then they took the finish line down because the wind was blowing it so hard yeah it's such a bummer but yeah so we were all out there churned when they came back through the um and one of the guys you never really got to see him without his helmet but he looks just like matthew perry yeah i kept i kept trying to catch him without his helmet i never did see it never did i'll find a photo um but uh what was i going to say oh if so donations are still up through the end of i think the end of july and so i've moved i've moved the tiny dot cc back by the
Starting point is 00:25:13 the way, thank you for all your donations if you've donated. I see MKT Data and Noel donated even yesterday as we were driving back, which was super nice of them. I've moved it back to my team page for the Colorado ride. Just to build more money for the team
Starting point is 00:25:29 so that we get bigger perks next year. We're going to time things. Well, there's not going to be an artacular probably next year. So don't have to worry about a conflict of timing for that one. So we'll be back in Colorado for that ride. They already locked in the dates, they told you? No. No. Usually, usually we find out really early and like, you know, like it was this last time.
Starting point is 00:25:47 Didn't find out until December or whenever it was. It was like the week after you guys signed the contract for Nurtacular. It was so, the timing of that was insane. It was insane. And it was never, it's always been the last weekend of June until this year. Yeah. The same year that we do Nurtacular. But anyway, so if you haven't donated, but you do still want to donate, tiny.
Starting point is 00:26:09 dot cc slash bike coverville and um you guys are you guys are awesome yeah so that was great it was super fun to go too i enjoyed my friday night saturday excursion you finally get to see me on a bike like all this you know you hear about it you've seen video of me falling over on a bike but you've actually never seen me ride one yeah it was good to see that i got to see it live we got a bunch of footage i'm gonna have a little short going up today of uh brian starting riding and then finishing his race not race ride and what else? Also, we stayed at a Lakinta. There was no shownies.
Starting point is 00:26:43 That's such a bummer. It's a shame. It was kind of a dump, but I still enjoyed myself there. I like a bad hotel sometimes. Once in a while. Yeah. You know what I mean? There's something about, as long as it's decently clean, I just mean old.
Starting point is 00:26:56 If you don't feel unsafe. Yeah, exactly. Like, it's in a decent place. It's clean. It's just old. And that's fine. You're like, ah, this is a little, the air conditioner's a little loud.

Because the only time I know is when she has her little eye shield on that she sleeps in, which looks like a little waffly iron, wiffle ball. You guys, I would hate to try to be terrible if I broke into your house and trying to rob me. And like, oh, look, Darth Vader's on his breathing machine. Oh, my God. Who is that?

Starting point is 00:30:06 Go ahead, Brian. Yes. Welcome to Do Frogs Have Brains, a countdown-style trivia game that might get another name at some point. Who knows? I've got a bunch of questions across various subjects, including science, art, entertainment, history, and more. Scott and Brian will each get 45 seconds to answer as many of these questions as they can. While Scott's answering his questions will place Brian into a soundproof isolation booth. Hello?
Starting point is 00:30:28 To skip to the next question, you can say pass. the player with the most correct answers after 45 seconds wins the prize for their contestant and contestants have been pulled from our Patreon supporters at patreon.com slash TMS. Scott, you're playing for Chad Janish. Yeah, Chad, let's go, buddy. And Brian, you're playing for Joyce Steinmiller. Oh, Steinmiller. She had those awesome wristbands, those awesome bracelets.
Starting point is 00:30:55 Charm-charm bracelets at Nurtak. I owe her a story about what happened to one of those bracelets. Oh, no. I haven't told them on the show. It was very funny, but I'll tell it later. It doesn't. It doesn't. No, it doesn't.
Starting point is 00:31:08 We're safe there. All right. So, Brian, let's put you into a soundproof isolation booth. You can look at the timer and you'll see when Scott's done with his questions. So just come in when Scott. Hold on a second. Last time I just muted the tab. All right, is that what we're doing again this week?
Starting point is 00:31:23 You're mute. Well, no, you're muted us. You need to mute us. You can't hear these questions. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what I say tab. I mean the clean feed tab.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. mute that time because you'll you'll hear you'll you'll you'll hear scott go get question i can no longer hear you goodbye it's fine he'll hear when you get a question right because it'll make a ding noise but that's all right all right so if you are ready i am i am anyway you're getting at 45 seconds we might adjust the time i know it we were like 30 seconds was way too short and a minute feels like it might be the sweet spot well let's try 45 seconds first we'll see how things go uh i will start the timer and i will ask you the First question, as soon as the timer begins.
Starting point is 00:32:06 So, ready, set go. Which other mammal, apart from humans, grows milk teeth, followed by adult teeth? Platapus. What small hat became a prescription for style after being worn by First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy? Baseball hat. Which president nicknamed Silent Cal refused to talk on the telephone? Calvin Coolidge. In which film did a character displaying extraordinary visions say, I see dead people?
Starting point is 00:32:32 That kid, six cents. Which metal has a liquid consistency at room temperature? Oh, mercury. By what Scandian name is raw, thinly sliced, smoked salmon seasoned with dill otherwise known? Fish farts. According to legend, what tradition began at a 1910 baseball game when... Oh, man. Poop.
Starting point is 00:32:57 All right. You should do it like they do on feud where they can finish the last question they're on. Oh, and then... I should. And then we just make sure Brian doesn't come in immediately so he doesn't hear the end of that one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You scared him, but Jesus said to me again.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Oh, are you back? Can we get, yeah, can we get something? Yeah, no, that's just for the future, but yeah, right, right, right. I think it's a good idea. I want to finish that. I would have liked to have finished that question. Oh. So, Brian, you know, maybe, um, give it five seconds, 10 seconds after that.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Yeah, all right. Okay. That'll be next time. Next time. Scott got three rights. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I know. I heard it this time. Did you get that at it? Because like,
Starting point is 00:33:34 ding. Yeah, that was added. That whistle probably really scared you too. It scared them, but Jesus out of me. Every bit of it. Because it's so quiet. I don't hear nothing. Could you like add some music in there? Like along the way so it's not like so jarring. We'll see what we can do for you. We'll see what we can do. Yes, exactly. All right, Brian, if you're ready. Maybe some jelly beans in my green room. I'm sorry, go ahead. Sure. You're going to get the same question. Scott was asked and we're going to start the timer.
Starting point is 00:33:59 And I'm going to begin asking when the timer starts in. in three, two, one. Which other mammal, apart from humans, grows milk teeth followed by adult teeth? Rabbit. Which small hat became a prescription for style after being worn by First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy. Small hat, Bolo, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:34:20 Which president nicknamed Silent Cow refused to talk on the telephone. What? Pass, what? In which film did a character displaying extraordinary vision say, I see dead people? Oh, six hits. Which medal has a liquid consistency at room temperature?
Starting point is 00:34:38 Mercury. By what Scandian name is raw, thin, Lee, slice smoked salmon season with dill otherwise known? Pass. According to legend, what tradition began at a 1910 baseball game when President Taff stood up... Stood up and yawned. The way...
Starting point is 00:34:56 ...stead up and yawned. It was the seventh inning stretch. Oh, is that? I didn't know that. I didn't know that. That's how the seventh inning stretch began. The animal that grows milk teeth followed by adult teeth is a horse. Jackie Kennedy wore a pillbox.
Starting point is 00:35:12 Pillbox hat! Oh, those little tiny ones. Yeah. Those are hilarious. Prescription was the clue in there. Silent Cal's Calvin Coolidge, six cents you both got and mercury you both got. Scandinavian thinly smoked salmon season with dill is called Gravlax or Gravidlax. You don't go to IKEA enough, apparently.
Starting point is 00:35:33 I did not get that one, no. No. But I got Calvin Coolidge, though. I feel good. Scott got Calvin Coolidge, and he also got three points to Brian's two. We will extend this to 60 seconds next week. I think 60 seconds might be better because you guys only got through one, two, three, four, five, six, seven questions. We had a few things going on.
Starting point is 00:35:52 This is going to be an eight-minute game eventually. These guys are so freaking slow. We had a lot going on this week. So getting with Al-Kabobb to change the timer and deal with all the vivid. Like, that wasn't going to happen. That's the last week. Yeah, exactly. Plus, I mean, it takes me time to read these questions.
Starting point is 00:36:05 So, you know, so we got a little bit of time there. But congratulations to Scott, winning three to two. And that means you're playing for Chad Jenish. Congratulations. Well done, man. Yeah. He's going to get some prizes. He's going to get a copy of Hacknet and S-E-U-M speedrunners from hell,
Starting point is 00:36:25 courtesy of Sunbun. I know those. But Joy, you're going to get the Lord of the Rings adventure card games, which is a fun little card game. the Steam game, which is really cool. The only loser here is Brian Dunaway. Ding, ding, dang. Thanks, man.
Starting point is 00:36:41 Just kidding. You're not a loser. You're a winner. And let me tell you something about winners. They come back on Wednesday and do this again with Tad Pooley Feud. And we record play retro and watch retro that night. So stick around this week. We got fun stuff lined up.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Very excited. Yeah, Devil May Cry, baby. Yeah. I think will officially be our second PS2 game. I believe so. 25 years old this year. Look at you, Devil May Cry. How old is a resident evil game originally?
Starting point is 00:37:05 What? Yeah. I know. It's insane how that all went. We're going to talk all about it. So be here Wednesday. We'll remind you again. Brian Dunaway, you have one thing left to do.
Starting point is 00:37:14 That is kiss our butts. No. Bye. All right. I don't see Nicole, but she may not have the link. So let's see if I can help her along. Yeah. I figured with the lateness, we'd have got her here by now, but I would think so.
Starting point is 00:37:29 Your link, ma'am. see if she responds. But I'll tell you what, because waiting is half the battle. I'm going to tell you a funny news story. Check this out. Please do, sorry, it's taking a drink of tea there. All good.
Starting point is 00:37:50 The Oklahoma Arby's employee in the news accused of giving herpes to a customer. Hadn't heard this one before. May never hear this sort of thing again. Oh, all right. But many have... Do you like that supersized? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:05 You want curly fries with that? I don't know. Many have heard claims of retaliatory restaurant workers spitting in customers' food and hope it's just gross, just a gross urban legend. I happen to know it's not just an urban legend. I witnessed it once in the back of a chee-chees. But anyway... You want to hope...
Starting point is 00:38:20 People want to hope it's an urban legend. Yeah, I wish. But in McCurtain County, Oklahoma, a former Arby's manager is charged with felony poisoning, according to the charge. They are accused of spitting in a woman's food and as a result, giving them herpes. I did not realize you could get herpes from spit. I think it's if it's the simplex one or the type one.
Starting point is 00:38:44 Yeah. The cold sore type one. Yeah. I think that is how you can spread it. Actually, this is a Dr. Tolbert question. If he's out there, can I get, you know what, that'll be today's, I'll send him a video and ask him. Can I get herpes from spit?
Starting point is 00:38:56 We'll gross out the internet. Yeah. Lydia and Kat and Kippur both say fluids, like body fluids. Grody. Grody. I love Arby's. Not anymore, says Genica Church.
Starting point is 00:39:08 It's a weird way of putting that. After a long night of bartending, Church stopped at an Arby's and Broken Bow, Oklahoma. It was taking a little bit of time, she recalled. I thought they were mad at me
Starting point is 00:39:19 just because it was about to close. They probably were. And that's usually when an employee will do something stupid. Yeah, still does not warrant spitting in somebody's food. Yeah, I don't care who you are.
Starting point is 00:39:30 there wasn't even a time in my life where I would have gone oh this is appropriate no no not even in my teens would I have done that exactly no I blame bad parenting it's interesting that they know you know exactly who did it right like you know yeah did they have to check who had herpes maybe yeah probably right yeah I mean who knows but yeah next time you're in an Arby's I don't really go there anymore because they've made everything so colossally expensive for what you get They did. Yeah. Even like the, even like just your standard roast beef sandwich is, what, like five bucks now, six bucks? Yeah. Or more. They used to do five of those for five dollars. Right.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Right. And they're still just as bad as they were then, except you were only paying a dollar. And so you were cool with it. It's terrible. Arby's change your ways. Absolutely. All right. I have it on a good authority that Nicole is here.
Starting point is 00:40:22 We're going to do this now. Well, what do you recommend? Well, well, well, if it isn't Nicole Spagnolo. Hi, Nicole. Hi. Hi. How are you? Can you hear me? Yeah. Yes, we can hear you just fine.
Starting point is 00:40:36 Hi. We had to pull over. Mateo got carsick. Oh, no. I hope he's all right. You okay, buddy? Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:46 All right. Okay, good. Good. My wife gets carsick. I can relate. Yeah. Well, don't worry about it because either way you're here and that's what's important. We're going to do recommendals, everybody.
Starting point is 00:40:56 We haven't done one in a bit or it feels like a long time because I literally had a Nurtacular. Yeah, exactly. And that has a way of, like, distorting time. So it feels like it's been, like, years, but it hasn't really that been long. It's so much fun. Yeah, it was a great time. I was so glad you guys could come by and be there and hang out.
Starting point is 00:41:14 And I love seeing your kids. Totally. Look like they had a good time. Yeah. Absolutely. That was awesome. Love seeing your husband occasionally. Just kidding.
Starting point is 00:41:22 I like to see him. I know. It's always good to see Mark, and I feel like I never get any time to talk to him. But it was still awesome to say. He's great though. He just kind of floats around. People yelling Mark at him the whole time. He said thanks for that, by the way.
Starting point is 00:41:38 Oh, good. Good, good, good. Well, let's get started. Brian, you are the leader of the pack with your clip. What do you want to say about it before I play? Sure. This is, I don't often recommend a reality show, but this is one that I think was on everybody's list as far as like the best most heartwarming reality show they ever saw.
Starting point is 00:42:00 So that is the setup for this. All right, here we go. Hot sauce is like having a moment. You don't see this kind of thing happening with ketchup. It's like, name me like a YouTube ketchup show. What's the name of that YouTube ketchup show everyone watches? There is, no, because it doesn't exist. Hot sauce is time.
Starting point is 00:42:17 It's our time. Hot sauce is time. Yeah. I'm Kevin Gomez. I run HR here at Rock and Grandma's Hot Sauce. I consider myself kind of a big brother that you can come and share your secrets with. I guess I can give you a nuggie too, but, you know, mostly a sympathetic year.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Thank you so much for jumping on this. Yeah, absolutely. Thank you for having. The retreat is a huge deal for us every year. It's kind of like my Super Bowl for the year, you know, getting everything ready, and you're going to be my right-hand man. This year is especially exciting because our founder and CEO, Doug, is retiring. Can't have a quick question? Sure, Jimmy.
Starting point is 00:42:52 If one of us got, like, one of those, like, joke chain emails or something like that, kind of, like, forwarded around the office or something? Is it sexual in nature? Oh, yeah. Very much so. I wouldn't do that. No? No.
Starting point is 00:43:05 No. Okay. Better save this, sorry, right? I guess I'll forward it. What if I forward it? Fair enough. You know, old Jimmy, but I've already sent it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:43:14 All right. Thank you. All right. That is the setup for jury duty season two company retreat, which follows the same format as jury duty season one, where you've got a ton of actors and one person who's not in on it. And they try and get examples of how good a dude this person is by making them, putting them into situations where they could either like shrug their shoulders or help,
Starting point is 00:43:47 you know, or be the good person. And that's what made season one so good is that they found this guy who was just a genuinely good good dude and put him all these situations like where he had to cover for james marsden leaving a huge poop in the in the hotel room he took the blame for that um do they do they successfully pull that off again with the unsuspecting person this time they successfully pull it off again and it's almost like the first one so season one was like ooh can we do this can we can we can do a whole season of this where we fool somebody into doing this season two feels like they said all right we've established we can let's see how far we can take it and it this feels like you're watching a
Starting point is 00:44:35 an offshoot of the office the tv show the office and it sounded like yeah it is it you know everybody's this really quirky weird person but they're so quirky and they're these actors are so good that it it makes it believable like it's um that like you're so weird they can't be made up kind of thing. Sure. And there are, you know, so many times that, that the guy, you know, the guy who's not in on it is like, God, this is so weird, you can't write stuff like this.
Starting point is 00:45:13 And it turns out you can because this, you know, it's funny because Luke Sidewalker says, half these reality shows are semi-scripted like the hills. This is scripted. I'll tell you right now that all of the, actors have a destination for that that thing that they need to get Anthony who's not in on it to do Anthony Norman is your is your hero
Starting point is 00:45:37 and they've rehearsed and scripted and practiced the way they're going to get him there and it's amazing when you look at the the final episode where it shows what all the actors went through to to get this going it's absolutely amazing it's how they do it's how they do curb kind of they have Very much so. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:57 They have an end game. They have to get to a point. And how they get there is fluid. But they still have a story point or a plot. They have to get to. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:08 Exactly. Yeah. So you called them the hero. Yes. They call them the hero too. Oh, really? Yeah. In production, like when they're describing,
Starting point is 00:46:18 um, uh, they're saying, okay, well, we need to get blocking rights. So when you, when you talk to them,
Starting point is 00:46:25 have them try, have, try and, have, hero to face this way like the whole time they're talking about him as the hero and more so than in jury duty season one um this guy has to be the hero there's a um there is a moment where he has to do something that doesn't benefit him in any way and the only reason he does it is because he cares about all these people and he wouldn't do it otherwise and that's him right in the very center of
Starting point is 00:46:56 of that group shot that you see right there. Yeah, yeah, Anthony. Okay. And it's always reviews so well. I have not seen the first season. Oh, you haven't. And the reason I haven't seen it is because I, like some in the chat are expressing. I hate pranks.
Starting point is 00:47:14 I hate them. This is not a prank. This is not punked. This is not like there is no point at which there's glee taken from humiliating somebody. if that makes sense. It does. And the way you've described it always made me go,
Starting point is 00:47:29 oh, it seems like I'd be all right. But then I just have never pulled the trigger. This is the most heartwarming. Like you will actually, and people will back this up, this is the most heartwarming reality show you will ever see. You know, you'll,
Starting point is 00:47:45 I can't say enough to say how different this is than any other, any other thing. He comes out, you know, when there is the final reveal. to him. At no point is he like, oh, my God. How embarrassing or anything like that.
Starting point is 00:48:01 He's like, oh, my, I think of you guys as family. Yeah. So stuff like that makes me want to give a shot. You need to watch, but you also do need to watch the first one because, yes, the hero does take the blame for a huge poop that James Marsden left in a hotel room. Which is amazing. Absolutely amazing. James Marsden now is a producer of the show. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:48:23 he comes back just to do like a a recap thing with the with the group he comes back to leave a quick poop and then leave again exactly but anyway so yeah not not even
Starting point is 00:48:37 remotely a prank so if it's if it's a prankster train avoid don't worry about it you'll watch this and be like all right I get this now this is awesome all right I'm uh prime is where this is prime both seasons are on prime and the reason it's called jury duty company retreat is just because
Starting point is 00:48:52 the first season was jury duty and took place in jury duty this one is a is has nothing to do with jury duty at jury duty i like the idea i like the conceit though of a of a corporate retreat we'll just keep it the same name and the corporate retreat the whole thing takes place at this this outdoor retreat in agura hills california and just that setting allows for some hilarious um situations to put this guy in is the hot sauce company real is it made up nope totally made up okay and what is it rocking Rockin' grandma's hot sauce. And there is a visual gag that comes up about halfway through the season that is that will seriously, you'll have to pause because you'll be laughing so hard. Tears will be coming out of your eyes and you won't want to miss it.
Starting point is 00:49:39 All right. I do, I want to say I need to research if there are any ketchup podcast now. I know. I kind of want to know. I mean, he's trying to talk about like there's no hot ones equivalent for ketchup, but there should be, right? Like somebody, you taste a bunch of different ketchupes, you know. But I'm just going to search ketchup. What do I get?
Starting point is 00:49:59 I get food channels that once in a while we'll talk about ketchup, but it's not the dedicated topic like hot sauces are. Mateo, there's your podcast idea. He loves ketchup. Ooh. Yeah, you should make a pet. You know what? Make a ketchup show and have ketchup chips. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:50:16 I love ketchup chips. Oh, I love ketchup chips. Yeah. The Canadians are smarter than us. They have them everywhere. All right. There you go. So, company retreat. Nice. Check it out.
Starting point is 00:50:25 Nicole, let's swing it over to you. You got a clip here from an oldie bit of goodie. What do you want me to ruin it on here? We were stuck in hotel rooms together, the four of us, for almost three weeks. And Mark brought along the Apple TV. And it occurred to me that Mateo hasn't seen a lot of Adam Sandler movies. And so we had a little bit of a journey. to the movies that Adam
Starting point is 00:50:56 Sam has produced over the years. I tried to show him Happy Gilmore a while back. He wasn't really that into it. So we watched Big Daddy, which he found very funny. And then it rolled into this one that I'm going to recommend.
Starting point is 00:51:18 It is obvious if you know this movie very quickly. I will say Mark and I danced our first dance when we got married to a song that was in this movie. Oh, nice. It's one of my favorite. I still quote this movie today. No, I'm not supposed to say the name. He's doing shit out of luck.com early.
Starting point is 00:51:43 He really is. Yeah, exactly. Shit out of luck. Yeah. So there you go. All right. Let's play it. Oh, yeah, well, they taste so good.
Starting point is 00:51:55 It's like I'm ripping you off, Rosie. I don't have any clean tougher wear. All right, well, definitely next time, okay? Well, don't be silly. Now, hold out your hands. You want to, uh... Okay. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 00:52:12 Thanks a lot. Now, please take a bite so that I can watch you enjoy. That's my favorite part. Oh, okay. Well, I'll go with the right one. It looks good. That's a good meatball. Yeah, good meatball, baby.
Starting point is 00:52:32 Every time we have meatballs, that's a good meatball. It's a good meatball. That's a good meatball. I want to watch you enjoy. Like, all these little... So if you're not familiar, this is the wedding singer. It's one of my favorite. It holds up.
Starting point is 00:52:48 It stars Drew Baramore, Adam Sandler. I saw this in the theater. I didn't know it took place in the 80s. So when we went into it, because it's a period, it's funny, it's a period piece. It's a period movie. So everything is in the 80s. And so when I first watched, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:53:10 what's going on with everybody's hair? Sure. Why the skinny ties? Yeah, exactly, exactly. But at the time is only like what? We're like 12 years out of the 80s. It's so weird. Yeah, something like that.
Starting point is 00:53:26 It also has Alexis Arquette as George. And she sings the best. Do you really want to love? Culture Club. It's so wonderful. Just all the characters. I love it. And of course, the last song, I want to grow old with you as the song that Mark and
Starting point is 00:53:50 dance too for our first song. That's sweet. Of course, you have Billy Idol in there, you know, given a little intro to the song. That's what he does. But it's so, I love the movie so much. And Mark and I were watching it. I was like, oh, you're holding hands. But yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:10 Where's it? And you get Bishemi and Lovitz, too. Like you get some, you know, little cameos of smigel, Kevin Neillan. as the cases for all of those. Yeah, I mean, it's always a thing that, what's his case, that Adam Sandler does? Although, does Rob Schneider make an appearance in this one? This might be one of the ones where you don't.
Starting point is 00:54:32 Because he wasn't Big Daddy. He's almost all of them. Waterboy and all that stuff. But I don't think, I don't think Schneider appears in this one. I mean, I know, Adam, I don't think so either. It's a shame. It's funny because I find that when people don't like Adam Sandler, they really don't like him. Sure.
Starting point is 00:54:56 I personally love him. I think his range over the years, he's been in some of my favorite stupid, funny movies and some of my favorite dramas. Like, I love Spanglish. That was such a good movie. I agree with this. I don't know why there's hate. Some of his movies are just plain bad. Like I think Little Nicky or whatever,
Starting point is 00:55:21 Pixels also terrible. Like they're terrible movies, but Adam Sandler's not the problem. Switch. Remember Switch? Oh, Switch is awful. Oh, God. Didn't they somehow, they got somebody big in that, like Al Pacino or somebody? It was, uh, no, it was, um, Walkton. Oh, Christopher Walkin.
Starting point is 00:55:37 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. How did you even manage that? But then, then he turns around and does like uncut gems or, um, Jay Kelly. Jay Kelly, which is excellent. Yeah, a really good movie. Even the cobbler.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Did you watch the cobbler? I never saw the cobbler. That was a recommendal I did a long, long time ago, where he's the shoe, he walks in somebody's shoes. It was a recent dish. It is click, gaming savant. You're right. Not switch, click. Oh, click, right.
Starting point is 00:56:04 It's kind of homicolism at some point. Yeah, you got to do it. The cobbler came out. Oh, it's 2014. I thought it was more recent than that. But yeah, that's actually regarded it. Okay. People like that one.
Starting point is 00:56:14 Yeah. Yeah, didn't know that one at all. got Bouchemmy in there. That's on Netflix, too. It was when he did that deal with Netflix where he was making like a movie a year. Yeah. And I was like, where is he going to? What movies is he going to do?
Starting point is 00:56:30 And he just did a whole bunch of different ones. Yeah. And I never saw, I never saw the do-over or Ridiculous Six, which I think were ones that came out of that deal, right? Yes. They didn't watch Ridiculous Sex. Ridicose is supposed to be very, very bad. But I haven't seen it.
Starting point is 00:56:45 And the other one, or the recent Happy Gilmore revival, I think was okay, but people said it was okay. I didn't see it. But, yeah, he's fine. We started to watch Happy Gilmore after the wedding singer, and it got late, so we turned it off. There you go. That'll happen. Well, there you go. Where's this?
Starting point is 00:57:02 He always laughed when they said balls. I think it's, um, is it. Yeah, where's Netflix? Is it? It's not Netflix. I think it's maybe HBO. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:13 Maybe HBO, everybody. It's one of them. Hulu or HBO. I can't remember. They move them around so much. Peacock. It looks like peacock. Oh,
Starting point is 00:57:20 it's a peacock. Nailed it. Peacock and looks like maybe Amazon Prime potentially. Okay. A couple of choices there. But, you know, six months from now, it'll be somewhere else.
Starting point is 00:57:34 I'm currently, I'm currently getting peacock for a dollar 99 a month. So I'll happily watch it there. Yeah, there you go. Very nice. Swinging it over to me, I'm going to cheat a little bit. This is a move.
Starting point is 00:57:45 movie that is not technically streaming on a service that you've already paid for, you have to rent it, which is what I did. But I'm glad I did, so here it is. Fadoh, Fadot, long, long ago, deep in the woods, there was a small stone hut. And inside the stone hut, there lived an Al-Kalyuk, a witch. Praying upon the lost, the evil old crone would first put the doomed travelers under her leaving them as gazzled and vulnerable as lamplet game. All right.
Starting point is 00:58:22 That may sound more intense than the movie actually is, but I saw Hocum. Oh, cool. Yeah, Hocom is real good. Hocom is this movie directed by this Damian McCarthy, who I didn't know. But it stars Adam Scott and a whole bunch of Irish actors
Starting point is 00:58:39 that you may or may not know from various, like, BBC things and, you know, shows from overseas. They're all very good, though. But Adam Scott is this American author. He goes to Ireland because he's kind of having like brain fart and he's a best-selling author and he's trying to get his groove back. So he goes to this place that his parents wants honeymoon and also wanted to leave his mom's ashes there. And there's a whole sub-story about that. But basically, it turns out part of this hotel, this is much I'll give without spoiling anything, but it is haunted by a witch.
Starting point is 00:59:12 And it is a legit horror movie. but it has moments that are really funny. And I've got this theory. Adam Scott never plays really anybody too different than what he always plays. It's always kind of, he's kind of the Michael Sarah of Adam Scott's where he does a thing and you love him in it. Like Severance amazing. But it's the same guy from Parks and Rec. It's the same guy from a million other things that he's done, party down, all that.
Starting point is 00:59:39 It's the same guy. And in this, he's the same guy, which I think, Ben, Ben, if it's the movie because it's actually got moments that are legitimately funny. That's cool. There's humor in this that normally wouldn't fit in this kind of movie at all because there's also some just abject, freaking haunted horror stuff. And I don't like
Starting point is 00:59:57 haunted stories, but the witch thing adds a twist to it in a way that I didn't see coming. It goes places. Yeah. Give me like a gore level or you know, like a level of blood and would Tina like this, I guess is the question.
Starting point is 01:00:12 The gore levels low by most standards. Okay. There are a couple of moments of like, a big body, you know, like it's not terrible. It's mostly jump scares, mostly mood and vibe.
Starting point is 01:00:25 I think she, if she's okay with those things, I think she'd be fine with it. Okay. And I think, I think, again, Adam Scott tends to even out the material just by being him.
Starting point is 01:00:33 Yes. What's it called H-U-K-U-M? Yeah. And there's a reason it's called that, but I don't want to give away why it's called that because it's a fun moment where you get, you kind of learn them. title. Have you seen the backrooms yet? Not yet. My daughter loved it though.
Starting point is 01:00:49 Carter loved it. Said it was awesome. But I figured I'd see that at home. I don't need to run the theater for it. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, this is still in some theaters, I think, in some limited way, but also it is now rentable and viable and soon, hopefully, just streaming in normal. But I bought it on Apple or I rented it on the Apple service. You can also get it on prime right now. This place is usually do the early rentals. It's still very very new. It only came out a couple of months ago, but really, really liked it.
Starting point is 01:01:20 And good year for horror movies, so check them out. Nice. It does seem like a lot of like different horror movies are coming out. I mean, I heard about obsession. Yeah. And then iron lung background. Yeah. Like a lot of
Starting point is 01:01:36 these independent E type things. Yep. Yeah. Horror movies do well. Uh, For whatever reason, the Gen Zs are apparently are a damaged generation, and they are making some gnarly horror. Because the horror movies are getting all the talk right now are these guys who's like, I'm 21, and I made my first movie. And now it's like the highest rated thing and made more money than anything in theater.
Starting point is 01:01:58 Like, we're having one of those moments. You're going to see a lot of really interesting filmmakers come out of it, but also it makes you wonder how this generation's doing a little bit, you know? And it's also not like Freddie Part 20. Right. Like we went through a phase where it was like everything was like a sequel or, you know, follow up to something that was already done. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:21 So it's nice to see franchise films. And it's not just horror. I mean, we're there's a lot more new ideas and new films that I don't know, like 824, even though didn't they get bought out? No, they're still independent. They did a, um, people are mad at them right now because they're at the table for, some AI stuff. I thought a company bought them out.
Starting point is 01:02:47 But anyway, they really not just brought horror movies like Midsomner and what's some of the other one. I really enjoy when I see an A24. Isn't Hatspin Hotel 824? I think it is. Oh, is it? I don't know. Are they doing that?
Starting point is 01:03:08 Yeah. It might be. No, they've got a really good record. Neon has a really record. Like these smaller indie studios are kind of killing it right now. And I'm here for it. I love it. Me too. Check this stuff out at quicktms.l. That'll go up a little bit later when Mike gets it up. And we will be able to give you all you need by looking there. Nicole and Mateo, I hope the rest of your drive is uneventful and no one gets sick. Me too. Yeah. And we'll do this again in like three weeks or something. All right. We'll see you soon. Bye now. Don't drive safely. You know, follow the laws of your local municipality.
Starting point is 01:03:44 All right. We got one quick thing to get through. I think this is worth playing even though we're a little over time. We got a message from, this is an email from a dude named Craig. And here is his intro. This is about the jugs of pee. He said this. Hello, sewer and ballcock.
Starting point is 01:04:01 Fine. Fine. Whatever. Are you all right with that? You okay with it? I mean, it's not great for either of us, but it's probably, but at least we know exactly where he's going with us. Yeah, we know where he's headed.
Starting point is 01:04:10 He says, there's a plumbing company. in this area called Morris Jenkins. They run TV commercials, local TV commercials that are usually entertaining. However, the one they currently show just doesn't sit well with me. I keep thinking which item grows Scott out the most. Watch this commercial and I would love to hear your thoughts. All right. So we're just going to play the whole ad.
Starting point is 01:04:29 Cool. This is not very long. It's 30 seconds. And they're a plumbing company. That's all you need to know. Here you go. What's going on night, chef? Can I send you all a picture of the toy car?
Starting point is 01:04:41 I pulled out of my last clog. A toy car? That's child's play. Have you ever pulled a TV remote out of a pipe? It's wild. We only charge $77. I know it's such a good deal. And I got a free hot wheel for my kid.
Starting point is 01:04:55 Still not as cool as the bottle of cologne I found on the toilet. They let me keep it. Those are great. But nothing will ever top this one. We're here to midnight and we make it easy. Okay. You want to know it gross me out. Is that you're going to give that kid that car,
Starting point is 01:05:11 That car that was in the poop pipe. Gross. Oh, that's horrendous. All of it is horrendous and would not make me want to use this company. No, I don't like your ad. I really don't. You could have been more, I don't know, I get you trying to be funny. You're trying to be edgy, which is funny.
Starting point is 01:05:26 Yeah. But I don't know. And also you can tell it's real people that work there because nobody knows how I act. Yes, which is typical of like the, at least the plumber companies out here, like the HVAC and plumbing companies all use their employees as actors. Yeah. And I, and I, there's something about that I kind of like because it's like, you know, it's a hometown thing and whatever. But if you're telling me a dude even suggests he's going to take a freaking hot wheels car that has been in somebody's poo pipe. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:55 And you're going to take that home and hand it to your kid. Here you go, junior. You're a shitty dad. That's all I'm saying. Exactly. Yuck. Yeah. All right. Well, there's that. If you want to send your emails, you text, whatever, go find all the ways to do it at frogpants.com. TMS. There is a Monday show today at 1 p.m.
Starting point is 01:06:13 There will be a new Kim's Kitchen up today at some point. Oh, cool. I've got to film it, but it's happening. And more stuff. So watch for all of that. Brian, you got anything else? And if not, let's play a song. What do you got?
Starting point is 01:06:24 Yeah, nothing else. We got a lost luggage coming out this week as we make our way through the first season, continue to. And soundography, oh, actually, this will be good. We're doing a soundography Patreon episode, but we're going to put it out for everybody. one of my favorite bands The Divine Comedy has a great concert
Starting point is 01:06:42 available on YouTube a full concert I think recorded in Belgium and it just makes me wish that they would tour the U.S. I would see them in a heartbeat but we'll give a link out but that's an episode
Starting point is 01:06:58 that we're going to be talking about we're going to be talking about that concert movie tomorrow and putting it up out for everybody to get access to. Very nice. Yeah. All right, let's get to the request
Starting point is 01:07:07 this one is going out to Cal Cal says howdy again Scott and Brian perhaps two years ago you guys played a track from my brother and I's record and now we're back at it
Starting point is 01:07:20 with a new one the Maltese Falcons have a brand new record that we've titled Floating Alive and we'd like to share a song with you and the community I think Moon Doon likely has the most general appeal
Starting point is 01:07:30 but the whole record is pretty slick and is a big step upwards from our earlier works thanks for potentially being among the first dozen who might give it a listen I've been a big fan and patron of the show and look forward to hearing more, keep on listening, or to keeping on listening. He is on guitar keyboards and drum programming.
Starting point is 01:07:48 His brother is on the vocals. No AI was used in this music. He wants to make sure it's said. There's a song called Moon Dune. Here are Maltese Falcons. The battle that I'm fighting with my shadow, hoping that it shields me better than my enamel. And just the two of us alone in the saddle, tales of the cavalry come and be unraveled. I think we're seeing eye to eye, or maybe all I'm seeing is my reflection in disguise.
Starting point is 01:08:35 One step behind the finish line, yo, I'm reaching a conclusion that I'm waiting to arrive. Even with eyes close, I'm seeing things still making the sky glow. Don't want to look down as I cross a tight road. Walking the right way down the wrong road. Please trust that I want to relate. Disassociate a guy. common complaint and do I give it my best or an arm and a leg guess I'm living with the noise I create so I find myself floating up in zero G feeling weightless drift among the canopies
Starting point is 01:09:07 see the bigger picture changing up my FOV and all the heat from the sun is a hot commodity I'm not trying to lead to try in to itemize my receipts so while I find the answers I'm an iron out the kicks and keep the shadow leashed a quick consultation with With the consolations, no better time to now to find some new accommodations. Like the combination, not a lack of dedication, just waiting for the door to open using innovation. Part sedated, part elated, heart back to when part of me hardly participated, looking like my views are antiquated. Every conversation inundated with things miscommunicated.
Starting point is 01:09:44 I still need to satisfy the cravings. Catch up to a wagon that is now an old acquaintance. Speak of language deemed a bit too dangerous. wrestle with being a little strange or courageous Turn a few more pages Looking more sophisticated Hide in that my heart is more deflated than a raisin Any defibrillators to facilitate a cure for a deliberate commitment
Starting point is 01:10:04 To debilitation I continue the charade While always running late to reservations I made Excavate the part of me that's feeling betrayed Independent of the sharpness of the blade Am I seeing things that nobody sees Caught in the act not being able to freeze I need a signature permission to leave
Starting point is 01:10:23 Yeah, people got me pinned I'm stuck up to my knees So I'm floating up in zero-g Feel a weightless drift among the canopies See the bigger picture changing up my FOV And all the heat from the sun is a hot commodity I'm not trying to leave Just trying to itemize my receipts
Starting point is 01:10:42 So while I find the answers I'm an iron out the kinks And keep the shadow leaks Now it's a delicate balance Of how I pay off my balance Every accountant that I have says it'll be a challenge. Basically inconceivable without enough allowance. Only talent I'm allowing is growing another callus.
Starting point is 01:10:59 Trying to hit a nail with the rubber mallet. Should I decide a sale if I don't have a ballast? Feeling a little stale without the proper prowess? Going off the rails causing major outage. Maybe you blackout. Blended in the background. Hoping to outlasts what's passed down. The peace pipe that's past round is past prime.
Starting point is 01:11:17 Perhaps I should be proud, not in the past now. possibly part take or maybe I parlay being part break leaves the heart ache life of the party only get you so far I'm a larvae still waiting for a start day so I'm floating up in zero G feel a weightless drift among the canopies see the bigger picture changing up my FOV and all the heat from the sun is a hot commodity I'm not trying to leave just trying to itemize my receipts so while to find the answers I'm an iron out the kicks and keep the shadow pleased. Hidden in his rectum.
Starting point is 01:12:04 Oh, rectum damn near Kelm. Hidden inside, yes, you guessed it, is pooper. No skin off my butthole. Dude, if you're getting the skin off your butthole, get that looked at. Their nature's butthole. He would thumb or finger up the hoo-ha there. Or, because a lot of... His hands are too large.
Starting point is 01:12:18 You can't... I would have to toss their salad. Yeah, part of their allure. Very slowly and methodically inserts that thing in his butthole. Bums there, he's all exposed. What's this game we're playing? Well, you put a toothbrush in your anus and then you read poetry. It's like a dirty bum.
Starting point is 01:12:32 Just a dirty, dirty bum. And I don't mean bum like on the street. I mean bum like your ass is what I do. Like I had to hold my butt out and go here, kiss it. My butt itches. Or itch my butt, that's what it was. Yeah, itch my butt. Oh shit, I got neurological tumors on my bunghole.
Starting point is 01:12:46 But on the whole. On the whole, preparation H is the best. Maybe it even been like a butt cheek or something for all I know. It's a little too thin and easy to, well, easy to lose between a pair of butt cheeks, really. If you're going to be in the porn industry, you better bleed. that butt hole. Bleach your anus, yes. Our bums are dumb.
Starting point is 01:13:01 We got dumb bums. There's no such thing as a good man bum. Do you think when they shave their butt holes, they call that a Brazilian? If hobbit's feet are so hairy, how is their hairy hobbit hole? It looks like a Baldwin brother down there. It looks like Jean Shalett is giving them a piggyback ride. Yeah, Gene Shalett right down in the hole there. When I got into Fracture Butthole, it felt a lot like the first one, but then it finds its own groove as you get further into the butthole.
Starting point is 01:13:24 Oh, it looks like you've already had a finger up your butt recently. I guess we don't need to do that. 300-year-old note found inside of the butt of a Jesus statue. Restores of an 18th century statue of Jesus in Spain have found a handwritten note hidden up his bum. The document carefully handwritten on both sides and two pages was found when restores removed a piece of fabric used to cover Christ's behind and exposed a small gap. We've all got one of those. Where's Tom Hanks when you need him, right? This is like the Da Vinci Chode.
