Hello friends, as we put the finishing touches on our next exciting adventure for you, we thought it was the perfect time to replay our second season of the podcast where we watch Sex and the City 2 every week for a year, hot off the back of the tragic news that and just like that will not be returning. Please enjoy. It's the worst idea of all times It's the worst idea of all times It's the worst idea of all time

Season two Hello and welcome along to the worst idea of all times Season two featuring me Guy Montgomery Flavor And myself Tim Bat, limited edition Hey you Tim Two gifts this week

Two kisses for a kiss is always a gift Oh, thank you very much, guys. It's much appreciated. You sound a little interesting there. Oh, it's much appreciated. Much appreciated. It's almost like in New Zealand. Woody Allen.

Well, we've just watched Sex and the City, too, for the 39th time. Yeah. 38. Who cares? It's episode 39. We've watched it 38 times. It really couldn't be of less importance to me. That's true.

Um, it's Tim and I We're doing it every week Until we can't take it anymore You know what I'm sick of the slow ramp in Every episode We've got to find our feet a little bit Got to get the engine warmed up How does one just

We've got to come out the gate We're tending to the stray sheep So a sheep might wander in here Having never heard the podcast before They've got no idea Axum That's not how Darwinism works If you're a stray sheep

You get killed and you don't get to breed And your jeans don't get passed on to the next generation, I want strong podcast listeners. You get killed and boiled. You know? I want nothing but the best. I want them whittled down. Your wool made into a sweatshirt.

Your meat made into a stew. Mmm. What I wouldn't give for a hearty lamb and rosemary stew right now. I want to slow roast them eyeballs. I'm going to put it in the stomach and I'm going to serve it as haggis. That's what I'm going to do. Is that what haggis? You put eyeballs in haggis?

No. stomach that sounds even if it is just a sheep inhumane is that truly well we would definitely kill the sheep first well obviously but it's still anyway it's mighty odd uh i would like to i'm a i'ma i'ma do the rest of the podcast like this i do not believe it if that is quite right for a second i would like to attribute this podcast to the good folks uh who provide fantastic internet service from big pop i too would like to join you you in celebrating the magnificence of Big Pipe, B-I-G-P-I-P-E, Big Pipe. That's right.

They are based out of a Big Pipe underneath the Pacific Ocean, and God knows how, but they are delivering fantastic service and very competitive deals across the ball, right across the board. And so far they have evaded the rat armies, but they can only last for so long. Well, Brady has been putting a lot of time and energy into making these rats amphibious. an amphiby rat, not to be trifled with, to say the least. Absolutely not. We thought that we could protect ourselves with a large body of water,

but now damn tricky old rats have learned how to make rafts. I mean, you got to drown a few rats to get an amphiby rat, and that's tattooed across Brady's forehead at the moment. That's the tattoo mantra of the week, which, of course, is a weekly featuring Brady's newsletters, but you all know that we are all under the iron rule of Brady the Rat King. I would like to remind everyone, And if you have Communicate to get out, you should be using Bib Pop to do it

because they will not throttle your speeds, sir. They will not enforce some sort of convoluted contract upon you. They will not enforce any sort of daughter caps. You will be free to choose your own headgear and download and upload and upload as much internet business as you do, please. So long as it abides the propaganda campaigns, which are strictly enforced by Brady's amphiborat henchmen. If you are in New Zealand.

New Zealand. New Zealand, you need to sign up at bigpipe. Dot co.n.z and use the cold worst idea to get a free month. And that will signal to the corporation that we sent you. Do not mistake typing in worst idea as in, oh boy, getting involved with these Big Pipe fellas is the worst idea. That is a code name of it. This was not the best code to use as a promotional signaler. Well, you're living, you learn.

I mean, selling the podcast as a concept to advertisers. You go, it's called the worst study of all time. A lot of them, they'll laugh you out of the place. They say, well, we're not interested. Not big pop, though. They look at the numbers, and they say, you boys need something out of this. You boys, on paper, you ain't done much except for watch a movie a bunch of times, you're simpledance. But look at all the people listening at you.

There's a couple of them. A lot of people say, oh, you boys must definitely be losing your minds at this juncture. We say, no, sir. We are simple folk from Louisiana, and we are built of stronger stuff than to lose our Ridley minds. I like to say, we may be losing our minds, but we're fine in our feet. That is beautiful. Thank you, I've read it in a fortune cookie. I went to a Chinese restaurant recently and I

I did like it a lot What do you eat? What do you eat? Dumplins Lamb dumplings Haggis dumplings which is a dumpling made a haggis made an eyeballs wrapped in stomach

That sounds like Scottish Chinese fusion And frankly that is a combination of flavors I do not care to sample Now a lot of kick things off this week if I may, Warren, with a question, which comes from Henry Stewart of Pots Point, New South Wales. Please go right ahead, Stevenson. He says, at this point, into the journey, I'm fascinated as to, of course, I should probably do his accent if I'm going to read his email. Oh, this is a fan of the show.

This is someone who's gotten in touch with us? Absolutely. Okay. At this point into the journey, I'm fascinated as to how you guys would react to a director's cat being released. You'd get new material and some sweet variation injected into your weekly flagellation. Two variations on this question. How are you feeling change if it included an additional 30 minutes of screen time, but half of the new material was devoted to Brady? Or, how would you feel if it just reduced Miranda speaking time by 20 minutes, but they also cut out coffee guy?

Henry. Well, can I see? Before I begin my answer, I could not tip my hat. I could not tip my hat. more to you Oh, thank you. For representing that fine gentleman from the antipities in the bottom of the Pacific, Australia. Well, I thank you. Thank you, Warren.

Your compliments me in the world to me and my wife, Cassandra. I can barely contain my excitement to run out of this here recording studio and tell her what you just told me right now, but I'll stick around because I'm curious as to your answer to these two-part question.

Now, Stevenson, the first part, of the question I understood very well. A director's cut. Why, what a question. What a choice. I would love to see some more footage. It don't even need to be Brady. Not all of it.

A little bit could be. That would certainly help. But any kind of new film going on in this film at this point would be all so scrumptious. You would be willing to sacrifice on a weekly basis I hasten away. 30 minutes of your... 30 more minutes of your time.

You're looking at a three-hour, you're looking at a Titanic sort of sex in the city. Stevenson, I've come on two weapons hot. I've come fully cocked when I should have been half-cocked at most, for I thought this was a one-off situation. No, no, this is my interpretation is you now have to deal with this new 30 minutes. I mean, you only got to do it 14 times, but it could be a better-the-devil-you-know type situation. Well, listen. I'm going to stick around.

I like change, especially when I've seen a movie close to 40 times. I want to see something new for the final 12. I want to get a bit of variety injected into my film experience. The change becomes normal because you do it once, that's change. You do it twice. Well, now the change isn't changing no more. It's just regular. Very similar to a saying we got to self, Forby once.

I watch your silly movie. Fool me twice. I watch it two times. Fool me again. Shame on me. Now it's a podcast. Yeah. And for that, I blame you, humble listener.

Now, what was the second part of the question again? Because I, Stevenson, I'm a simple man. I cannot collect many facts in my head to hold them there for a long time at once. Well, the next part of the question, I feel, is easy to answer insofar as essentially, You lose half an hour of the film instead of gaining half an hour. And you lose Miranda largely, but you also lose Coffee Guy. This is a far harder question to answer for a city boy. He is a tant pole in the film from which we can address other points.

Now, listen, there's purely numbers on a page. You would have to reckon that you would lose the half hour because coffee guy's on screen for nigh on eight seconds, Stevenson. Not a long time. If that. Not a long time. And for that, you could jettison why, 20% of this film every week. That sounds pretty good.

Except, coffee guy ain't just a second, Stevenson. It's what coffee guy represents. It's what coffee guy means to us here in the South. He is a good honest boy. He is. I love Coffee Guy. I look forward to him every week. Only hopes in the Battle for Global Supreme.

M.C. currently being battled out by Brady, the treacherous rat king, in his band of merry amphiby rats, and Dick Bot, the Japanese-designed solar-powered, restless soul-wondering, the Arabian desert. Stevenson, I am ready to render my judgment on to thee. And hither I say, I'ma keep the half-hour, and I'm a keep coffee guy. What do you say to that, boy? I say on the one hand, that is absolute insanity. I mean, you are talking about, you know, within two weeks, one hour of your life. So you protract that over, what, 14, that's seven hours you're spending in the company of these gasbagging gals on their highfalutin, high stepping, tripping to the heart of the Middle East, where frankly, they're stepping on everyone's toes, they're spitting in everyone's milk.

I mean, they're really making themselves knowing they're shaking their tail feather to borrow the local parlance from a good personal friend of mine, Nellie. But on the other hand, I believe I agree with you in so much as coffee guy does represent hope and the American dream. So I'm with you. I'm going to keep the half hour because I just am not willing to risk losing such a vital component in my weekly motivation. The thing that we learned in the Battle of the South, as we like to refer to it back here, damn Yankee boys call it the Civil War. We call it the Battle of the South,

is that you got to look for your little victories. You got to look for your wee moments shining through. You got to look for damn little rays of sunlight that are piercing, those black clouds that seem to come and invade every single week. Those little beacons, I hope, if you will. Uh, I mean, you know, with regards to the movie this week, Warren, uh, Mattress Pikelet King, the creator of the movie, as I understand it. The director and writer of this film. Am I saying that correctly?

Mattress Pikelet King. I believe you are. He is a regal man. He's a background as an entrepreneur. obviously fusing two pretty disparate ideas and bringing them together under one business umbrella. He is a member of the monarchy, an entrepreneur, and an oracle, who gets his fortunes from cooking a pachlots on a skillet. Now, me personally, I don't like the monarchy. I don't care for what they represent. But, uh, Mattress Pike, Glit King, I got a little shred of respect for him. I think he's a man who carries himself with dignity.

Do you have one of them little rays of sunlight this week for me, fella? You want to, uh, you want me to shine a torch in your eyes, Warren? Stevenson, nothing would make me happier than to hear something that made you happy this week. Well, I was very pleased to see the appearance of my local pastor Chris Knoweth in the film in his previous career as an actor. And in his performance this week, I thought he was doing some truly exceptional facial work. I mean, while his body and his esophagus, his vocal cords might have been in autopilot, his face was an overdrive. And I do think he is, I mean, if he could just sort of resolve, you know, the difference and energy between those two, he'd probably be quite a fantastic actor. But as it stands, it seems you can only either get one or the other going.

We got a saying in the South. We got two sayings, and Chris North is really representing both, and he's defined a way to get in between them. The first saying is, that dog ain't going to hunt. That's right. The second saying is that dog gone feral. And when a dog gone feral, you got to shoot the dog. now what i'm sensing about pastor chris knoweth is that in some respects that dog ain't going to hunt with respect to his acting chops this week but in other respects that dog gone feral that's right and this this feral dog that is his face uh at one point he is relaxing on the couch as is his one reading the newspaper and his beautiful wife carrie walks in and she says You get your boots off the couch or there'll be hell to pay.

And he sort of, he says, well, he don't really say much. He sort of just takes it on the chin. But he don't move his feet in no hurry either. So he sort of, I mean, the thing of it is his face, as we've already said, his face is working so hard. He's got no control over the rest of his body. I mean, it wouldn't surprise me of offering Chris no shed his pants in that moment. I mean, such as the conviction of the acting by care of Bradshaw.

Anyway, there's a knock on the door, and Carras says, oh, there's probably the other bags or something, and he says, oh, oh, for a second, I thought it was the shoe police. And when it says that, I mean, his eyebrows go up to begin with when he says, oh, for a second, his eyebrows are leaping off his face, like they're almost separate bends, a couple of caterpillars, furrow little caterpillars, reaching for the starts. and then the rest of his face he sort of just leans in real close and he says shoe police and I mean it's it is a triumph of facial acting that tickled you this week Stevenson that tickled me pink right to my very core well that is a sensational moment I'm so glad to hear it from you I'm very happy to share it with you now listen may I tell you about something I saw in the movie this week which had me positively tickled well only if it was a beacon of light shining

down from heaven on high sure as Jesus our Lord will return one day for the rest of us during the rapture I can share with you this Pearson moment of absolute joy and positivity I'm very interested to unpack what is

about to be revealed Stevenson you remember one point at this grand adventure which spans many continents and millennia our girls who we'd be following for the whole film are relaxing in a gorgeous five-star resort hotel in Abu Dhabi in the Orient. They'd be kicking their shoes up and they'd be shown a lot of flash.

And they'd be getting some eyeballs onto him as a result of that. Unsurprisingly, they are flouting convention in the most gregarious manner. Now, at one point in proceedings, Miranda's gas-bagging about something. Shala goes to say something else to her, and my eye could not help but be drawn to a gentleman who is in the back of this shot, slightly fuzzy, just a little bit out of focus. And do you know what he is doing? I have not one clue to what this man might have been doing. This growing gentleman is disciplining his boy. He is giving him a right old kick-up de Kista, telling him what for in a foreign land. And I tell you what, being this far from Louisiana,

it suddenly transported this old country boy home, and it warmed the cockles, the absolute cockles in my cowboy boots, to see a man step up into his responsibility as a parent and tell his boy how to be a man. Well, my God, Warren, that is some spur-jangling patriotism. Why, if it didn't go against me, My core religious and humanitarian beliefs, I'll clamber over this here table, and I'd pin you down, boy, and I'd just start kissing you all over,

for it is my firm belief that even between two men, a kiss, is always a gift. Now, listen, Stevenson, I want to tell you something. I want to tell you something straight, because what you just said to me, don't make me feel too right. Don't make me feel too right in my rumbly guts. And you're rumbly-tumbly to me. know that neither of us are learned men we are not men who like the books and a written word in particular all the moving pictures and the fancy noises of a stereo but let me tell you about one

a special book a special book owned by a special man who lives up in a glass tower where he looks over numbers many changing numbers stevenson all the time very dynamic having to shift money this way and that multiple times of day hedging bets it's not for us simple a country folk he's a city dweller he knows what's happening and he has lots of ideas rumbling round in that brain of his and he writes them down he does big's his name and he's got a big book a big old book of ideas stevenson that's right and he's obviously got his background in hedge funds uh and funnily enough sometimes stumped into a brand spanking and you entrepreneurial development is as simple as flip-flopping and slipslobbing your words two different ways around and what he started doing why of course is

funding hedges he has gathered many dollars from many respected monetary gentlemen of the world and he's made a hedge fund for funding hedges he has hired the uh the uh the The services of a young, bespectacal gothic-looking boy, armed with nothing but scissors for one sit of hands in one of those motorized serrated-edged bread-cutting knives for a left arm. Eddie was his name, and he was as pale as a ghost, misunderstood by society as being an evil-doer, but he just didn't like people too much.

and all he needed was an opportunity someone believed in him to maybe help him realize to go and buy you all day what me big do he gonna go out and bout

the boy who got a little palpace and break up one of them and he got scissors for a reader he cut up a head for it and he'd sell it on the open market for million dollars pretty soon this boy Well, Eddie, pale as a ghost, he was.

He was traveling all around the world, being commissioned by many other rich men, for he had evidence now. He had photos of his work that he could show the masses. I can do this to your hedge, governor. I can make your garden the most beautiful, the most picturesque in the land. I can make your little baby elephant out of a bonsai tree,

if that's what you please. Oh, I'm going to be a little tiny elephant, not the size of a regular baby elephant. I think because it's very rare to see bones. I treat get that bit, but too much work. But, of course, this little boy can't take no photos. I mean, he got the bread cutter for one arm and the scissors for the hand. What he needs is a photographic representative.

Enter Mr. Big, manager, photographer, creator. Sounds like a pretty popping, high business idea to this humble listener. Viewer, whatever my responsibility is in the content. of this idea. Whatever your sensory perception is of this boy, you could be nothing but impressed. He will knock you right on your fanny. Hmm.

He'll skin graft some of your butt and put it on your chin, and then you get a butt chin like Jay Leno, which is understanding all the fashion mags and the glad rags and your vows and your ales and your Cleopatra's. I believe that's the name of that ladies' magazine, Cleopatra. Oh, yes. Part memoir, part sex tips.

Been around for 9,000 years. Comes to us from denial, it does. Now it's telling our woman how to dress and our mothers how to cook. Frankly, I'm not for it, Stevenson. I do not like this Cleopatra magazine. I do not like what it represents. Them damn Yankees pulling coaches from all around the world

trying to make it the new American way. That's not the American Maya. that is for sure why the notion that anyone would grow up in the America their parent grew up up in is absurd because of course humanity and the human conscience and sort of our understanding of everything is constantly changing and developing and I personally think that's for the best so anybody out there listening to any of our friends who are just bathing in the Mississippi River and healing your woes with leeches just like your papy did uh i'm gonna tell you stop trying to live like your parents it makes no gosh darn

sense well now that you mentioned it i mean my pappy did get into a whole heap of trouble well of course it did a lot of bandits back in the day you see had to be armed at all times he had a six shooter on his left and he had a big old magnum on his right this is what i'm saying and we know how my pappy met his end and uh i hope no one has to go through the kind of embarrassment that beguiled my, peppy. I don't want to step out of place, Warren, but it might be okay if we reopen those old wounds and revisit the tragedy which befell your bandito father.

Well, Stevenson, it ain't a grand story. It ain't even a particularly long story, and it's certainly not an impressive story. But my peppy, he was known only to himself as an accurate marksman. To everybody else, He was a stone-called fool. He didn't know how to shoot. In fact, one day, he was being hit up by a bunch of other banditos

who were trying to steal his gold. Didn't have real gold, of course. He had pie right in his pockets. Fool's gold, it's known as, and he only carried it round to trick the dumbest criminals trying to buy himself out of trouble. Most people could tell the difference very easily. Well, it was just pumice stone famously.

Your father would... He painted it. He was a moron. It didn't even weigh roughly the same. I mean, the feel is completely different. The whole idea is absolute insanity to me, but I did respect you. Well, I didn't necessarily respect you further, but I did learn to fear him from a young age. So there was my mad as a cut snake, papa, being rolled up by half a dozen banditoes trying to steal his painted pumice, and he weren't having it today.

He had had a hell of a morning. The pig that he had had passed away. he had had that pig for many, many years, raised it since a little piglet, named it after the governor, in fact, and he was very disturbed when he died all of a sudden, so he was not off to a rouse and moaning, and to be rolled up by these banditos. He said, no, not today, assholes. And he reached for his gun, only he forgot which one was which, and he grabbed his magnum, which he was not rightly prepared to shoot. tried firing at that bandito, the one that was trying to roll him, and instead he missed him terribly. The bullet sailed right above his head, but with the massive whiplash of that gun, it kicked back and it smashed him right in the skull, cracked him right in his forehead. And that's how my grandpappy died. From a kickback on a magnum, he weren't even supposed to shoot, onto a bandito who was trying to steal his painted pumice. It's a tragic tale.

and quite an inglorious way to meet one's end in the South. It certainly is. I mean, that's what still strikes me is you kindly open this old boom for the first time in a long time. But pumice isn't particularly valuable. I mean, you were a pumice fortune family. You were raised on a pumice farm. He could have just gone on painted up more pumice.

I mean, I understand he was a man of principal and he wanted to maintain his dignity. and do the courageous thing, but he got so much pumice back in the house. It just makes it, anyway, it ain't about the punis. You and I both know that, Stevenson. I don't want to get into it.

I much rather talk about an observation we shared while watching this fantastic feature-length film, Sex and the City, too. When the girls visit a hotel in the Middle East in Abu Dhabi, they walk in and you cannot help but know. in the background of frame that half of a door frame is missing. Well, it's certainly caught my eye this week, Stevenson. It is missing outright, and it only takes noticing that once

to start noticing other maybe little problems or foibles one might take with the hotel. Little peculiarities, as we see in to self. Namely, that if you watch it carefully enough, the hotel manager will acknowledge that the hotel is absolutely riddled to its guts with Bora. It is more porous than the pumice my daddy died to protect. I mean, the whole plate, if you could just please be careful on the floor boards because the floor is absolutely riddled with pumice. I mean, you will go crashing straight through into some unseemless sight that you do not want to see. You got to be very, we understand that this is the jewel suite that it costs $22,000 a night, and this is a very well-regarded establishment.

But you got to walk lightly, ladies, you got to be very careful about where you're distributing your weight. For if you are not on a beam, we cannot take responsibility for your crashing onto your finish. I mean, we got a bit of a saying here in the jill suite. If you are not on a beam, you are presumably no longer in the jule suite because you will go crashing straight through. Now, you may notice that the- If you ain't beaming, you're dreaming. The beds, they are in certainly what is an unconventional place within the room. not a feng shui decision that is uh that's just weird there's the most support for the beds do not move the beds unless you want to have a sleep three floors down because that's where

you wind up why if i had a nickel for every time them city slickers come in they take one look at the jewel suite and they say why are you cramming all these beds together when there's so much space to use we got to tell them it's about the feng shui of the situation it's about the flow of the energy in the room truth is feng shui ain't got to nothing to do with it. That's the only place that could hold the way to two beds and two grown ladies without crashing onto their fannis. I did enjoy this observation and sharing it with you, Warren, and I do like very much the thought that these fantastic $22,000 a night hotel is such, I mean, a fundamentally

sort of huge problem. It's a pretty much, it's a page one rewrite. I mean, you tear up the blueprint you got to start all over again but they're hanging on for dear life like the villainous landlords that uh we all know and love in our day-to-day lives renting the properties or across louisiana or oakland or wherever you may be in your life well i can wrangle a lot of things stevenson i can wrangle sheep i can wrangle goats i can wrangle a bull angry as they come but to try and wrangle borer very difficult very difficult indeed it's got no consciousness. It doesn't respond

to any instruction. You can set your best sheep dog on, Bora. I mean, that dog is going to hunt, but it's going to be hunting for a long time

because the Bora is not responsive. It's like getting a sheep dog to tell someone's here to grow. It don't make no sense. We got an old saying back in the south,

and that saying is Sitter on fire. Scyter on Bipoo. Spada Boppa. And what a bo. Scobada bo, Wada b. You what a bo-b-bo-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

What's it doing? What's it do around there? That is the question. We ask it every time we watch the film. We watch the film often. That's right. And this is, of course, the quest or the journey of a man who we, earlier in this particular episode and podcast, went out of our way to defend and include in the movie even a grieve as bodily harm to ourselves. He's known simply as coffee guy, and he's a wanderer. Yeah, he's a wanderer. And he'll wander, round, round, around, around. Well, I am very curious as to the plans of this year. this week. I mean, I have no particular leads myself, Warren. I don't know you noticed anything about the way he was behaving. Of course I do. Of course I do. You know me. I keep my peepers open and my ears to the floor. He was tap, tap, tapping away that foot on the floor like some sort of

percussionist. Like maybe he was up the gills with the drum practice or something earlier in the week. I don't know if that all that coffees for drumming or not, I'm just saying I noticed that. Well, you're dead right. You are an observant man, Stevenson. Because a little known fact about our friend of coffee guys that he leads the meanest jazz three piece in all of New York City. Woo! It's called the Coffee Guy Trio, and it'll set any club on fire. It will set the club on fire metaphorically when they play the music,

and then it's sort of their signature flourish at the end. That will douse their place in gasoline and burn it straight to the ground. A bit of a fire hazard when you don't have enough access, It's like them city slicker band. I forget the name of at such time as we are talking at the moment. Great tragedy. Great tragedy. But the important thing about the coffee guy trios,

they're always looking for them fire exit friendly clubs. Places that are open air. Places that could go up in a blaze of smoking glory and nobody will get hurt. I mean, we're in all that, always that way. They did, I mean, what they found is very hard to book business in it, if you are destroying the very club in which you were. So, I mean, they had... Oh, no doubt.

I mean, the first hurdle they've got to get over is a sophisticated jazz club. That's got a lot of fire exits. They are not dime a dozen, Stevenson. I tell you that right now, as sure as my name is Warren. And so the man, we are looking at in the screen this week, more or less, jonesing up on caffeine and trying to figure out exactly how they can reboot this business model to make it, I don't know, a little more profitable, perhaps. little more economical perhaps

maybe they can help support their families a little more rather than siphoning half their mortgage payments into a band which is pretty much struggling more than any other band in New York which is saying something because you got a lot of bands in that city but this is the thing just like all them trailblazers that came before them they are absolutely on the cutting edge of performing art

while when a little chap named Andy Warhol starting painted soup cans People said, Andy, you're crazy. What you're doing with your charm? We know what the soup can look like. I mean, we say people say it was us. I go on right here. I love the stuff.

We were there. We say, we know what the soup can looks like. We see it. You don't need to go painting it. I mean, there are a dime a dozen down at Trader Joe's. Quite literally, I bought a dozen for a dime on a special promotional offer. Why you go paint her? And you know what happened to that little boy named Andrew Warhol?

He didn't on to become a big, big success. No way. Andy? Andy. I did not know that. A multi-millionaire hanging out with all the queer folk from all the hot places like Los Angeles and New York. I refused to believe that our little Andy did become such a success while painting something as simple as a soup can. The secret was you got painting over and over again in different colors. That was my idea.

Him and me, we was high as a cot, talking shop about maybe how we could make a quick buck. I said, well, just sort of throwing it out. There was some kind of joke hit throw away. Carmen, I say, oh, we could paint cans. We could paint a beer can or soup can. Andy, he didn't even bat an eyelid. He didn't say nothing. I did not, for one second, think, oh, this really gets my goat.

Is he still alive? Why, I'm afraid to say little Andy's gone now. He passed away. That son of a... Oh, I mean, you've got my blood pressure bubbling up mighty high right now. Now, listen, Stevenson, I remind you of what your mama said to you. You do not speak ill of the dead, son. It is not the way of the south.

I really need a root bear. Well, I'd like to take this opportunity to tip my hat again to them glorious sons of bitches There's a Big Pop Internet who are providing us with all of that good intel, all of that good communication. If you think to yourself, how did this conversation wind up on the Internet, then you're probably thinking Big Pop because that's exactly how it happened. Go to Big Pop, Doc Hold on and said, you tell them. You tell them old Warren and Stevenson sent you. And you do that by flicking in a worst idea code when you sign up.

They'll give you a month for free. They won't tie you down with some convoluted tiny little, text lawyer contract like them city slickers do they won't be fleecing you no sir i hate them city slickers also i would like to uh say that we got a lot of exciting things coming up oh we got so many exciting things on the web page first of all and this one is i mean it's pretty of left field someone submitted what i would uh describe as an essay a short essay on the their speculation as to what coffee guy might do scott hartso we're going to put that up on the on a page if you want to wade terribly long and very involved want to wade through the recesses of his

mind by all means the opportunity to be there uh more than that we got us some some stuff coming up on our podcast you hear about but more exciting than that is we look forward to the american thanksgiving as we do every year uh we are being involved with some uh some of our friends from our sister state west virginia tremendous boys they are too uh they host a very funny very popular podcast called My Brother, My Brother, and Me. And what we're going to do is we're going to start a new podcast with them, something called an annual podcast. Now, I don't know if there are many of those floating about in outer space or what,

but I'm pretty excited by the prospects of this. Now, what we're going to do, we're going to sit down with these boys on Thanksgiving, just like the Pilgrims did with them engines, and we're going to sit down and we're going to watch a film together. that we're going to watch Paul Blod Malkop 2 every year, once a year. As our ancestors did. Or at least that's what our eventual spore and our great-great-grandchildren will be saying because the wrinkle on this little number is we're going to watch this movie once a year

for the rest of our lives till someone ups and dies. And then when someone dies, we replace them. We put someone in that chair. So this podcast, hypothetically speaking, will outlive all of us. And ain't that something to toot your horn to, ladies and gents? Well, it's certainly something I wouldn't mind learning to play the trumpet about. And if I could play a trumpet, I'd jump on a rooftop and play a tune called Till Death Do Us Blark, because that is the name of this upcoming podcast.

If you flick into your little iPhones or your little Android or your little laptop computers, you go to Twitter. You go to Twitter.com. And you plug in there the letters that are deathblot, D-E-A-T-H-B-L-A-R-T. If I rightly remember, you want to go there, you want to sign up for some updates. You'll be the first to know when we come out with something. So to you, boys, in West Virginia,

rolling West Virginia, to my man Travis, to my boy Justin and to little Griffin. Baby brother Griffin, I'll see. I tip my hat to thee. I would also like to take the opportunity to say before we sign off All Hail Brady, the Rat King and his band of Mary Amphibir Rats, Brady. If you are listening and you did interpret anything we said is particularly offensive, just no, it's a couple of guys goofing around.

We don't mean nothing by it. Also, all hail, Mattress Pocklet King, you know, he's, I don't like the monarchy, as I say, but he's an interesting guy. Now, just to wrap up there, should we? We, uh, I'ma just threw this out as a little idea, Stevenson, but, uh, should we maybe sing the Brady song to end up on? Well, I, I think it would honor our Rat King if we were to do just that. Oh, hold on. I'm gonna grab, I'm gonna grab my mouth organ. I'll be right back. You warm them up for you. Okay. Uh, um, this ain't the song. Well, it is kind of the tune, but I'm just warming up while my mate gets his mouth organ.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, okay, you ready, Stevenson? I were born, ready. I walked out of the womb singing, you know that. Anna one, and a two, and they're squiddly-diddly-duddy-da-da-do. Oh, hell Lord Brady. for he rules the rats It's the worst idea of all time It's the worst idea of all time.

Season two.
