today you ready okay let's go the hunt for the wildest movie of the summer everybody ends here this is your super friendly and not aggressive reminder to buy tickets immediately borderlands now playing we just have a good rhythm together you know know, he sort of feels me out, I feel him out, and we go for it. Hello and welcome to this fourth season of The Worst Idea of All Time. This is a podcast series where myself and my friend Guy Montgomery from New Zealand, originally now based in New York City watch and review

Huh? I was saying, currently in Brisbane Yeah, we're getting to it We watch and review Sex and the City the film, once no, twice a week, every week and if you do the math 28 divided by four is um

a lot what is that seven seven seven you know seven times tables have always been one of my strongest times tables. Really? Yeah, man. Seven nines? I can do that. That's 63. So we've been doing this for seven months. That can't be right. No, divide by two.

Three and a half. Here's the thing. And this is what Tim said to me just before we started recording. We're almost out of runway here. And this is just us, isn't it? Down to the ground. We sort of gave ourselves a run up. We banked a bunch of episodes. We said if we just stay disciplined, if we stay on top of it,

it won't get too grisly. And I don't know exactly how this is going to time out, but I mean we're already at a point where there is no way in which this isn't going to be the most gruelling homestretch of any season of the podcast so far. We are demanding a lot of ourselves. And, for example, this morning I got up at 5.30 a.m. to watch Sex and the City.

So it's now 8 a.m. here. I didn't fully understand that. I guess I just didn't think. I thought for some reason you were going to watch the movie yesterday during the daytime, and so you would just have to, like, wake up to do the podcast. I should have, but I had stuff on. Of course you did. You're doing a show, you're on tour.

Suddenly it's nighttime and you've got these shows, and then, yeah, I mean, it's interesting. and you've got these shows and then, yeah, I mean, it's interesting. It's hard to know how to account for this in your life. Like it's hard to know when or how to make time for it. Like if you treat it with a little bit of respect and you give yourself a bit of space and breathing room in each watch. Once I did decide to like, you know, come home straight after my show last night and watch Sex and the City, but that did not feel like a thing i wanted to do so instead i thought

i'll just you know not i i don't know i don't know what makes for a healthier better watch if it is um trying to create an enjoyable environment for yourself to watch. You're not doing what I've done this morning. You're just getting up and blasting through. Oh, Jesus Christ. I am so fucking tired, man. What are we going to do? How are you? What did you see? I'm not good.

It's Saturday. Do you know this song? It goes, Colour my world with sunshine yellow each day. Yeah, I think a paint company might have used it in a set of ads when I was a kid on the telly. I think that's what I know too. Is it a real song or is it a jingle?

It's a real song or is it a jingle? It's a real song That's cool It's by a woman named Petula Clark Petula Clark's got a bunch of hits Truly? Yeah I think so I don't know any of them But it's a very familiar name to me

When was she around? Was she like big in the 70s or something? Yeah 60s, 70s. Oh my gosh. Sorry, I just stopped yawning into a mic. Yawns are contagious. My boy, Saturday morning. Yeah.

Did you watch it just now? I did. Yeah, I did. I did. Can I guess what you're wearing? jandals nah my dog's eating all my jandals bare feet no shit i actually need the weather can you tell me the weather first yeah sure uh so it's quite overcast i i'm just guessing i haven't seen a report, but I'd call it probably 20 degrees outside at the moment, maybe 19. I would say maybe like there's a light breeze.

It's not whippy out there or anything, but there's a bit of a breeze. Man, the jandals thing's really throwing me. I was sure you were wearing jandals. Jeans? Do you know I definitely would be wearing jandals if I owned i owned any at this point uh jeans yeah you got it jeans and t-shirt yeah of course it's a timbo but i reckon you might be able to pick the t-shirt as well uh i'm not getting a clear vision in my mind okay is it white with a print on the front no i looked at that one this morning well pretty good i mean i guess it's pretty i am wearing clothes yes yeah the the

shirt i'm wearing is um got lots of flowers on it and it's purple i got it got it in thailand and it's one of those uh t-shirts know, they stitch a pocket onto it because they, I think you get like a pile of sort of secondhand clothes or whatever that are still in good nick. And then you sort of add bits from another piece of clothing to that piece of clothing and it sort of makes it new or something. I don't fucking know. But anyway, I always hated the pocket on it.

So about a month ago, I got around to um unpicking it and it looks perfect now i really like the shirt is the color different is it not more faded around the pocket so you'll always in some sense be carrying the pocket or memory of the pocket with you strangely not it's all it's all pretty even if you okay i'm looking at it you can see there's a subtle color difference, but it's not Marsh. I wouldn't let that bother you too much, Tim. Don't notice it every time you look at it now. Okay.

Is the T-shirt thinning out and pilling? Yeah. I need new clothes, man. Yeah, I need new clothes. I feel like I'm 31 now. I need to pay a bit better attention to what I'm wearing out there. I think I've taken to, I just sort of wear this every day, some jeans and some t-shirt and then put a cap on. And I justify it to myself by going, I'm a creative. I'm writing things. I'm making things. I'm doing podcasts. This is the uniform.

But maybe it's just lazy. I think it's fine. I think, I mean, I'm not even dressed, Tim. I'm not nude, but I'm only wearing a pair of underpants. I really apologized for what happened, man. I didn't realize you got of underpants. I'm so, I really apologize for what happened, man. I didn't realize you got up at 5.30. You weren't

to know. And do you know that I appreciate you. I'm really grateful for your sympathy and empathy because you've watched this movie or other movies at unholy hours. It's also alien to me the timbatt i fell in love with would really put the fucking uh he put he put the boot in i don't know if that's true not getting up at five that actually i i don't know man it feels like projection to. That feels like you would have hit me with that stick,

not the other way around. You better believe I would have. But the good news is by the time this record's finished, I'm going to be up and at them by 9 a.m. That's a huge day ahead of me. How many times have you watched and recorded an episode of the worst idea of all time before 9 a.m.? It's never happened, I don't think.

It's almost impossible the trouble for me is you're quite a good napper right you can go down for a bit of kip in the middle of the day i have started at a glacial pace getting into daytime napping um and it's it's all right it's pretty good actually i would recommend it to all maybe it's like right. It's pretty good, actually. I would recommend it to all. Maybe it's like taste buds where every seven years, if you don't think you can nap during the day, you should give it another hoon to see if your body's adjusted. Because I never used to be able to do it.

It would fuck me up for the whole rest of the day until I went to proper bed. Proper bed. Oh, wow. Yeah, I know what you mean. I think don't even wait seven years try it all the time everything's a discipline i mean you know you can learn how to do not as well as other people who have been practicing it for longer necessarily but you can learn how to do virtually anything if you just

give yourself if you apply yourself a little bit every day or every time you have an opportunity to uh so that that seven year window i guess is that like is that basic rooted in scientific fact is it that oh i don't know it's something with your taste buds have you not heard that no i haven't heard i haven't heard it i don't know apparently but maybe it's an old wives tale could seelinked to the fact that your cells replace themselves every seven years or some shit like that. Fuck, I don't know. I'm stringing together a lot of article headlines.

You know? Not the meat, just some headlines of things. Now, do you have anything to say about the movie Sex and the City? Because I'm really yeah i'm really i had a couple of thoughts i had a couple of thoughts i want to spit out my shining light because i've got a fear of losing it and it was samantha jones's sunglasses when

she's in los angeles they're like a turquoise they've got frames um which are sort of thick thicker than normal frames but there's no frame on the outside edge, on the side, on the far left and right. I don't know if I explained it very well, but ultimately, who gives a fucking shit about you knowing what I'm saying,

because this is very trivial. No, it's not trivial, Tim. It's important. This is the pillar of positivity around which we're going to build the rest of our conversation. Sorry, you're right. I enjoyed the sunnies. But I want to jettison that to talk about

something because we've never really got into this but the concept that big just has a driver on hand and the driver's experience of running around mostly manhattan ferrying this madman around in his escapades and i got me to thinking like this episode or this watch rather is the person who is taking big to his wedding his driver or has he got a special like limo version and if he did get a different guy in how hurt would his normal driver feel to know that i mean that's crazy uh it's a great question i feel like god i mean is mr big is he such a sort of man about town he takes himself so seriously that he wouldn't form a bond over say 15 years of sharing time every day with the same driver that they would not have some sort of camaraderie or something to talk about.

Because I don't think he would jettison his main driver for a wedding day. That's a day where you'd want your boy. That's true. I feel like, though, it's surprising. No, but it must be a new driver maybe he maybe he gets him from a company and he's got a rotating cast of drivers oh remember when they're there remember when they're driving and he says uh i can't go it's the wrong way he says turn turn the car around that's not the response of a man familiar with mr. Big. That's not like, you know, like if he knew Mr. Big,

he would just do it. That exchange. You know, I can't, John. It's two strangers talking almost, isn't it? Absolutely. But I mean, I feel like, yeah, he must just, yeah, he must have different drivers, different days. Because I also feel like if he was friends

with the driver in the first place he would probably have done something to try and talk i mean i don't know if there's overstepping the professional boundaries but would try to do something to talk him down when he's goes to jilt carry like if that driver is your friend then that driver knows carry that driver knows carry he knows that big and carry purportedly in the world of the show i meant to be together yeah and that driver knows carrie he knows that big and carrie purportedly in the world of the show are meant to be together yeah and that big's making a huge mistake and that you know he's about to burn an hour and 40 minutes of everyone else's time by jilting her just to wind up together further down the line yeah he didn't step up to his driver responsibilities at all

Yeah. He didn't step up to his driver responsibilities at all. But then, I don't know how much he's getting paid. It could be a fireable offence to cross into someone else's personal life. The concept of having a driver just seems insane to me. Just to have a person on call all the time. It's quite old money, isn't it? It's very old money, yeah. In New York, maybe less so, I guess, because famously parking is a nightmare.

The whole idea that your job is to like directly serve one person kind of trips me out my um i think it's my great grandma might be my great great grandma apparently used to um be the the cook for the queen mother's family i always thought that was kind of cool but it's a similar sort of thing of like a life serving a very specific i like it if it's a similar sort of thing of like a life serving a very specific. I like it if it's a family, actually. I kind of, I'm sort of into, it feels nice to me. But if it's one person, it feels weird. Oh, it's a family business.

No, no, no. Like if you're serving a family, if you're doing one thing as your whole job for a family, that feels kind of nice. But if it's one person, it feels kind of weird to me. Well, what does that say about, you know, the conditioning in which we expect people to find mates and spend their lives with other people? Yeah, there's a lot of questions.

I guess, how am I going to be able to lean back in this chair with you still being able to hear me, Monty? Because I'm going to get further away from you. I can hear you, buddy. I need to lie back because I feel fucking tired. I should have got myself some caffeine

or something this morning. Jesus Christ, boy. Something that you won't care about? Go on. There's a real tidy little continuity error with the smart water when Charlotte's being a real fun sponge. I mean, and understandably so, because it turns out she's pregnant.

But, you know, when she's casting shade at all the other girls for a second round of margaritas just because she's not indulging. You've forgotten this, but I've brought this up before. I just moved the whole table towards me that's what that noise was sorry it sounded like a power tool well what if i told you i picked up on what i thought was another continuity error that is almost definitely also already been discussed but i have a crack and you can let me know please do uh when samantha becomes very flustered in the honeymoon suite uh honeymoon suite while charlotte and miranda are

resetting the room to neutral by stuffing all those floral petals into a bag samantha watches for a while before she hands over the two cocktails she's holding to paulo and then she takes off her big she's wearing a big hat and handbag. She takes them off. For how quickly the shot comes back to her without them, it happens in less than like three seconds. It happens in less than three seconds. But she doesn't appear to be stressed or flustered at all. You know if you'll say, I guess the best articulation would be, you know if you're meant to be working,

like you're meant to be working on something and someone who you are accountable to or who you told you were working comes in and you try to close the tab or change the screen on your computer and like your whole energy and body language betrays the fact that you have just made a huge adjustment to what you were doing

that is what that is what Samantha is it what you would expect to see or what you do see in that moment? Well, it's what you'd expect to see, but what you do see instead is incredibly calm, which means if you saw her acting flustered, it would qualify as more of a small panic attack,

but the fact that she seems calm means that it gets downgraded to a small continuity error. Let's give them credit where it's due. We've seen the film 28 times now. Not a ton of continuity errors in the film, eh? You know what? Upsettingly, it's true. I really think we would have found them by now.

I'm tempted to jump on you what are you actually watching for what is your mindset going into this think of this as endurance training for what what's the event training means there's something at the end but like you know if you're doing endurance training you have to there has to be something in mind there has to be a notion of why you're doing it. Yeah, exactly. That's the big void we have. There's no reason.

There's never been a reason. We are devoid of reason. This is the reason. This conversation is the reason. I mean, it doesn't feel like a great reason right now, but it is the reason. How do you get through it then? Do you mean me, Tim? or how does one like what do you what what are you thinking of when you go in when you when you bloody put your sneakers on i can't

think i can't think that's the thing it's the same thing as as the discipline of going for a run i adopted this thing of like you just can't overthink it you just if it pops into head you just got to grab your gear and go just get your fucking shoes on and go get out the door right now go go go don't fucking think about it just just go just kick off and it's the same for the movie it's like i set my alarm for seven i was up until about um a.m. last night. Combination of... Doing what? Well, I was actually cutting up the director's commentary episodes to make sure that they were freshly loaded into the chamber.

Oh, my God. Yeah. So, anyone who's listening to this has heard those. Yeah, dude. They were episodes 25 and 26, but luckily they've also heard us talk to Jen Fricker, so pull back up on the other side of that. Yeah, a bit of a talent cleanse there.

Fuck, man. Those Dercoms, I don't know. Here's what I'm worried about. I don't remember anything that we said. And, you know, I didn't go through and, like, edit five hours of audio or anything i was just checking the levels and making sure that everything was was all right i've also just as a heads up um if you uh on patreon supporting us you you're going to get access to the video there is a

um four hour 50 minute i think it is a video this is a minute, I think it is, video. This is rank. Yeah, it's disgusting. I'm just trying to provide content for the good people out there, man. But it is rank as fuck. Anyway, that's why I was up very late. It was pretty depressing. And my wife's out of town and my wife's out of town and my dog's not here

oh man it's just you it's the loneliest you can feel now I think you're right when the alarm went off this morning the hardest part about going for a run

is putting on your shoes and getting out the door. I don't think that's true, by the way. Is that true? Oh, it probably is. Fuck, I don't know. I think it's true. Let's say it's true. Let's perpetuate the myth.

But this is... I think this is where the... This is a false analogy for watching Sex and the City because it's the same for work, right? Like the idea of having to go to work, in my experience, even if you really don't feel like it, is often worse than once you're actually there. Once you're there, the actual thing that you've been dreading is happening,

and so that means that it's closer to not happening. Sex and the City does not provide the same luxury. The idea of watching sex in the city is better than the actuality of watching sex in the city like once i'm at work it doesn't i don't know it doesn't do you know what i mean you're okay so you're saying you're you're more okay it's not great obviously but you're more okay once you're in it no no i'm saying the other i'm saying that's actually my experience oh sorry for this but in this instance it's like i mean it's still hard to to get up turn the alarm off open the lappy yeah boot up my four gals live the bougie lifestyle that at some point in my

life i'm sure i consider aspirational not as told by these four characters but certainly you know what they're doing or you know the and it's just like i don't i don't know fuck man i'm tired yeah i hear you i'm upset i i will i want to be doing better than i am in this episode for you my boy guy montgomery because you you fucking you got up at 5 30 i really feel like you've done your part and now it's up to timbo uh you know it's up to it's up to both of us man so often um i i uh tend to draw the short straw in the time zone wars that we go through um but it's not too bad you know it's just a little bit of an early morning

but it isn't 5 30 a.m but i really feel like uh i just i don't know man i could i've got nothing i watched the fucking movie i'll tell you that it was on i was there today you ready okay let's go the hunt for the wildest movie of the summer everybody ends here this is your super friendly and not aggressive reminder to buy tickets immediately borderlands now playing i don't know if this cancer continuity here not. We've talked about it before either. But have we talked about how the movie at one point recycles used footage? Yeah, you mentioned this a few episodes ago. What bit is it again?

So, you know, when Miranda tells everyone Steve cheated on her and then we see a moment between Charlotte and Harry or Runkle where she says says thank you for being you and oh yeah they have a beautiful lovemaking session yeah wow on new year's eve and this might just be in the director's cut yeah when they are showing the various different ways in which the gals are celebrating new years yeah um we see overlay of the exact same footage of charlotte and harry and i'm like if you're running a movie two and a half hours it is unforgivable to do to do to do that to use the same footage twice like

it is just it's it's not essential to the story i don't need to i've seen them enjoying themselves i don't need to know that they're fucking right it's the symmetry not essential to the story i don't need to i've seen them enjoying themselves i don't need to know that they're fucking right it's the symmetry of that montage though we need to see everyone i we don't need to repeat footage like maybe they could have come up with something else but um oh can i throw this at you there was it wish you would it's valiant bro what you just gave me was fucking valiant i'm sorry i'm not still in it i've moved past it too quickly i should still be no that's okay um do you reckon harry's a good lay do you think he's he's a generous lover i feel like he must be i mean if we know that charlotte in previous relationships has been frustrated by the impotence of uh trey yeah and we know if only from secondhand information that she

is grappling with not being attracted to harry while still actually being attracted to harry i mean look i don't think i don't think it's the be-all and end-all of the relationship or a relationship, but I feel like if there are various different obstacles for Charlotte to mentally overcome to even build the initial connection with Harry, there's got to also be reasons why you become so invested in the relationship and you believe that it can work. And one of those things, you don't always necessarily get to choose who you have sensational sexual chemistry with um and i reckon i reckon that our boy harry is an absolute

fuck machine i reckon he knows about things that you and i can only dream of too and i don't mean to i don't mean to slight you as a lover or myself but i just happen to think that uh i don't know i don that, I don't know. I don't know that he's read the Kama Sutra, but I do think he's written his own version. The Harry Sutra. You know, well, he probably wouldn't call it the Harry Sutra. Why not?

It just feels like too much of a direct ripoff. I feel like Harry's suits here harry's suits here harry suits here harry suits his suits bad bad name all of the all the lining of his suits yeah uh line drawings he's done of the sexual positions he has experimented with and would like to experiment with that's quite cool because then well actually you'd seem like a flasher but if you wore the jacket and then you could show ladies by just opening up a breast of your jacket being like you want to do this they'd be like uh that's fucked mate where'd you get this jacket and they'd be like i made this i'm harry from harry suits you and uh that would be the start of the

worst infomercial on cable access i'd love it harry suits you is such a shit name no it's cool man it's cool it's cool it's cool yeah Don't worry about it. It's cool. Yeah, it's good. You're good, bro. It's good stuff. I love it. What about, what about, um, uh, Smith Jarrett? I love Smith Jarrett. I hated him this, this watch. I, I, I thought he was bad at acting. I don't know.

It's hard for him to be bad. I feel like his character is such a fucking moron. It's hard to be bad at acting and playing him because who knows what a moron acts like in the real world. Yes. But I thought he had like an oafish and not oafish, but like an oafish innocence or beauty, a certain naivete.

Like a shrink quality. Yeah, I really like the way that he celebrated Samantha's handling of that heckler at the rehearsal dinner. He was like really clapping and getting behind that. I love the fact that he knew he was going to get dumped and didn't do anything to counter it didn't say hey we need to have a conversation literally just keep going on with his life until samantha was like we need to talk and he's like yeah this is coming he like he's fine with that so little self-respect that it's like well i know

my partner's not happy but i'm just going to keep trudging through this relationship until she tells me that it's over. Dude, that's a super common thing. That happens a lot. Really? Absolutely.

Yeah, I reckon there's heaps of... I think it's... It's probably both. It's probably just because I've got a lot of guy mates who I would talk to about this sort of stuff. But I think it's a real guy thing to just kind of... And a bit, yeah, it's something you do sort of, I think, in your early to mid-20s.

Hopefully people grow out of it after that. But just sort of being a shit long enough to get dumped because you can't be bothered doing it yourself. Oh, yeah. But yes, I know what you're describing, but that to me is not what's... Oh, this is a different thing. being a shit long enough to get dumped because you can't be bothered doing it yourself oh yeah but yes i know what you're describing but that to me is not what's oh this is a different thing well he's not acting out like he's not playing out you know well i think he's i mean i think he's not putting his best foot forward and i think he recognizes that there's a like a deficiency in the relationship and he's not addressing it.

He has put his best foot forward, though. You're right. I regret saying that as soon as I finish the sentence. He has invested in the relationship, but I kind of agree that it's like, I don't know, at the point where he's coming home late on Valentine's Day

and Samantha is visibly angry, that to me would communicate hope in the relationship because it's like, late on Valentine's Day and Samantha is visibly angry, that to me would communicate hope in the relationship because it's like, well, she's frustrated by my behavior, which means she's invested in our connection and how it's working. Guy, do you fuck with Valentine's Day? Are you a big Valentine's Day person? No, it's such a challenging one, though, because, you know, like the whole not doing Valentine's Day,

like it's almost impossible to escape the long arm of valentine's day i don't believe in it yeah i don't do anything particularly special but some small tokenistic gesture i think sort of it's like hey not for me but i'm aware that it's happening so yes what do you think what do i think of that i think that's good i think it's what do you think of valentine's day um i like uh i i i do it i participate yeah i like little opportunities to do romantic things i think it's cool but i also am very like bad at planning so generally it's not a super you know um but i like i don't know i like the idea i like um there's more value or power in a romantic gesture outside of you know prescribed time let me tell you about tim betats version of romance. I would love to hear this.

I actually, yeah. Well, like this Valentine's Day just been, I think, what was I doing? I was doing like a gig or something. So I was very late to come home and I'd sort of been working all day. So I hadn't really seen. Had you been acting on set had i been acting on so i've been making sushi for you you got it nah she was at work we were both just you know doing our doing our respective things but then i

um i i must have been doing a gig i can't remember what the fuck it was, but I was getting home at about 10 p.m. or something, and I was Googling around looking for anything that would be open, and it turns out there was a fucking... Oh, my God, dude. There's a fucking... How can you say that? What?

It's just so funny to do Valentine's Day, and then your anecdote of supporting evidence is so i finished the gig at 10 p.m and i'm just frantically googling for oh fuck do you know what it was though actually it was the 13th so this was this was valentine's day eve and i knew that i hadn't sorted my shit out but i like in theory i could have done something the next day but i wanted zoe to be able to wake up to something. So I, um, yeah,

so it was one of those things where it's like, I really want to pull this thing off now because it will be so much nicer, but worst case scenario, I could do something during the day tomorrow. Um, you know, so I started Googling around for, uh,

for open stuff. And there was, um, not the supermarket I was close to but another supermarket slightly further away so i just i had to walk um about a couple of kilometers to to get to that one and luckily they had fucking flowers left because they just had so many flowers for valentine's day there and i managed to get a bouquet of um roses from the supermarket and trudged them home but there's still romance there in spite of the fact that it's um slightly shitty of leaving it to the

last minute and getting flowers from a supermarket and i say this with the full knowledge that my wife does not listen to this podcast thank goodness and um it's the it's the personal fight isn't it it's the struggle it's getting out fight, isn't it? It's the struggle. It's getting out there, walking too far late at night, being very tired, um, to make sure that your, your partner's got some flowers in the morning.

It's a version of romance. Yeah. It's not earrings. Uh, yeah. But still. Well, um,

I remember my partner sent me, tried to send me some cookies to arrive on Valentine's Day. And I didn't organize anything for her. And thankfully for me, the cookies actually didn't arrive until two weeks later when I was out of the country. I say thankfully for me. I mean, I would love to have the cookies.

Sure. But in terms of keeping my nose clean as a partner on equal footing yeah yeah um you and i should celebrate valentine's day for each other i think i don't know why we haven't been doing that if we found the day of the first episode recorded i would happily spend that as a romantic uh not romantic it'll be a celebration of friendship and also it'll probably be quite a nice opportunity um outside of have i mean unless we have to watch the movie on that day for any reason but a nice opportunity to celebrate the bonds that we have and the things we've achieved outside of on air or having to actually watch the film isn't that ironic i think the

reason we did this is because we missed each other? And it's nice talking to you. And even today, while I think we've struggled for inspiration from Sex and the City, you know, there are worse ways to wake... There's not a lot of worse ways to wake up than two and a half hours of, you know, being beaten over the head by an unhappy relationship. But the light at the end of the tunnel of this conversation

is that there are worse ways to start my day than with a chance of my good mate Tim back. That's very sweet, and I feel the exact same way. It's always a great dishonour to have to watch Sex and the City again, but always a great pleasure to catch up with Monty in any way, shape or form, however that conversation takes shape. I want to talk about the Dirk on briefly, eh?

Like, that shit was crazy. I'm sitting in the very same chair that I was in for five hours while we plugged away watching that thing, just reviewing little frames from the footage just to check things things were sort of matching what did you see in our eyes so grisly man um an absence of what you want to see in people's eyes it wasn't it wasn't necessarily what was there it was what was not there when you see a normal person living life engaging with the thing that they're

doing in that moment or with a person or a thing that they love there is visibility to that you can see a glow you can see a sparkle in the eye and everything that was in the frame of that that footage was the opposite where it was thousand yard steer bad body language nothing that communicated joy or enjoyment it was just two defeated dudes

sacking red wine isn't it funny we've been I mean someone said it to us on twitter but we do refute we refuse to learn a lesson yeah the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results but do we expect a different result i don't think i would argue we don't and that's that's that's what the comedy is i gotta say this this episode i don't think i would argue we don't and that's that's that's what the comedy is i gotta say this this episode i don't know if there's a lot of comedy in it but it's the concept isn't it

it's the idea it's the furtherance of the notion that we just keep watching this movie that's where the absurdity lies there's different kinds of ways to be funny you people you need to remember that when you review us on itunes is that comedy comedy comes in different shapes and forms sometimes it's in the form of a joke and you go ha ha that had a beginning and a middle and an end what a wonderful punchline i didn't expect that to go there and then sometimes uh it's two grown men watching a film too many times and you go well they're still doing it so I guess that too is a form of comedy yeah

while this episode might not be funny in execution the concept the overarching concept is what buoys it I worry about that because that's what we said a lot during the director's commentary too so I put it

no what was the slogan what we said a lot during the director's commentary too so i put it we've beaten no what was the slogan for frosty boy often licks never beaten yeah that's got to be us that's got to be us from now on man we've got a rebranding are we rebranding as the frosty boys i i don't know i mean it's pretty cool i'm into it i think we might i think we might be the frosty boys yeah i just worry that it's uh it's it's a term really taken i have no idea if this is true by some awful online group somewhere should we if that the case, we're taking it back. Timbo and Guy Guy. The Frosty Boys. Yeah, yeah. Well, I like it.

Look, I think what you're saying is right. Often looked, never beaten. Maybe your worst sex in the city. Come at me again and I will, so help me God, I will strike you down. The next time I engage with you, it's going to be on my terms. It not going to be at 5 30 a.m it's going to be at a time of my choosing and my convenience the conversation i have with tim is going to sparkle with a joy to be

we haven't heard since the halcyon days of grown-ups too i want to have a bubble bath i just remembered i've got a bathtub in my house and i haven't had i haven't had a bath in about 15 years i don't think i'm inspired i'm inspired i'm inspired earlier in the episode i was saying i don't know what's better is it to create an enjoyable watching environment or isn't it just you know slop it through the mud early morning watches you know with no fucking like all i had all I had for company while I watched Sex and the City this morning was water. That's no way to watch a movie. It's like saying the only person I hung out with today was this wall I'm next to.

It's not a thing. Water wasn't company. No, it isn't a thing. Water was the company. Like, if I had a croissant, I would have said, well, I had for company this morning was a croissant. But I wouldn't say all I had because I'd say, well, it was actually not so bad this morning. I had it with a croissant.

I had it with a bottle of ambient temperature water. It's so positive. That's great. You've got to watch it in the bubble bath. I've got to watch it outdoors. Let's make a conscious decision. A turn with a positive. Can you hear that? This is going to be banging

an empty water bottle. Okay. I was actually not going to guess that. It sounds to me exactly like the noise a tab makes on a can of soft drink. Think of the information I'm giving you, Tim. Why would I be toying with a tab on a can of soft drink? I yeah no well i think of the information i'm giving you tim yeah i'll be toying with the tab on a can of soft drink i know look frosty boys forever frosty boys unite um

you and i are the frosty boys yeah do you know what else and maybe i'm being a little oversensitive to this at the moment because i've been spending too much time online the front having boys in the title seems too exclusionary to me because i want other people to be able to fuck with this i want us to be like a frosty gang uh yeah i mean the only one i just had was frosty fellas i mean fellas is i mean it's unnecessarily gendered like Like, you know, what do you think of guys? I think guys is everyone. I am trying to get it out of my lexicon in certain situations

because I've had a couple people hit me up about it. And I would describe those people as, you know, pretty far in a certain direction, sort of pretty far on the left and very sensitive to these issues. But why not, you know, like, why not get some better, more inclusive language to have in the chamber? The other one is that I'm really struggling with at the moment is opening, opening especially comedy shows because i this came from me i said it so many times on the director's commentary saying ladies and gentlemen all the time i want to see if i can augment that a little bit get that out easy fix what's what is it one and everybody everyone and everybody but you know it's just it it's it's always that shifting of the gear when

your first your first jettison language that i've been using for so long it just takes a little while to warm up and but that that's it that one's a gimme to me i reckon like every time every time i start a show good evening everyone it's the same yeah that's, that's good. That's good. Hello, friends. I quite like. Sets a nice tone right off. All right, fuckos. G'day, cunts. Oh, I did it again.

Gonna stop saying the C word. There's my shining light light it was negative carrie says out with the old and with the over price and charlotte for one of the first times i don't know if it's a decision by kristen davis or by charlotte does like quite a dismissive like she's meant to laugh yeah carrie's made a joke yeah i don't know if chris and davis doesn't believe in the right thing or charlotte's got a bone to pick with carrie if she does like a very very dismissive sort of yeah she's not invested this sticks out to me like a sore thumb because her character often is the one who's giving the supportive laughter to the shittest gags

from the other gals their whole categorization is big noises and that's it I'm putting a put on this well hold on can we try and get to the bottom of this at least just for this episode are we the frosty boys are we okay

with that I think so you and I are the frosty boys we've got a friend zone which actually fuck we should record one of those very soon um now i think about it uh and we've got we've got friends friends are everyone um we're frosty boys we may revisit that later i don't know we're very tired to be dealing with concepts any concepts we just need basic activities uh putting shoes on putting jeans on putting t-shirts on these are all things i can do right now beyond that fuck i'm all at sea life is good i love you tim i love everyone who's listening uh one libertarian listener, I would like to say

see you next time. This is the Frosty Boys. Often licked, never beaten. Creamy as all hell. We just have a good rhythm together. He sort of feels me out, I feel him out. And we go for it.

Today. You ready? Okay, let's go. The hunt for the wildest movie of the summer. Everybody run! Ends here. This is your super friendly and not aggressive reminder to buy tickets immediately. Borderlands. Now playing.
