Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, I bet it was fun for Lauren to listen to that. Was it? Is that the one John Lennon wrote? I actually don't remember it happening. You don't remember us doing it? Yeah, just a minute ago, yeah. Yes, I believe he co-wrote that with John Lennon, right?

Or did John Lennon write it outright? I think they collaborated. Wow, that's pretty, that's a pretty great mashup there, people. But they also fucked each other. Oh? Do you hear about the under pressure that basically like they had an agreement, Freddie Mercury and David Bowie, that they would each go

into the studio without hearing what the other person did and just lay down something and they would try to put it on top of each other and see how it came out. And David Bowie cheated and listened to Freddie Mercury and then came on and added to it. That's smart. Yeah, it's smart. It's probably the better way to do it. It's smart to cheat sometimes. Yeah. And that's why most people do it that way.

Yeah, if you're out there- Knowing what the song is. Yeah, why would they agree to that? It's very strange. I think it's a fun game, probably a fun game, you know? Yeah. But it's people's jobs, you're wasting people's time. That was a good acquaintance.

But a match that's been cool happened. Yeah, but we'll never get to it because we have to listen to that shitty under pressure song the way it is. I love that song. The cheaters version. I love that song too. Cheaters, by the way, there's a new show. Cheaters.

That's exactly- Cheaters was fun, that's a fun show. There's a new show that's just cheaters, I saw. It's cheaters, it's people. It's essentially cheaters, but it's not called cheaters, it's like Love Trap or something like that. Love Trap. It's a Love Trap.

Oh, I think it's what's her name from Tammy from LA real world and from what other reality show is she in? Real world road rules challenge? No, she's in like one of the like housewives or something. Oh, wow. Let me look. Tammy?

Let me look it up. The name doesn't ring a bell. Tammy Roman. Tammy Roman. She's doesn't ring a bell. Tammy Roman. Tammy Roman. She's not on Real Housewives. I said it was something like that. You churlish dote. Basketball wives.

There you go. Is that fine? Basketball wives. That is fine, that is different. She's on basketball wives. Can I see a picture of her? Gosh. Oh, Lauren.

Are you hangry? I'm hangry. That's Ariana DeBose. Yeah, Lauren. Are you angry? I'm hangry. That's Ariana DeBose. Yeah, what is? Oh, here she is. Okay. Anyway, so she's, I think she's hosting it. Great. And it's, uh, it's, and I, and I saw it and I was like, this is just cheaters.

The original host was Tommy Greco? That show was always fun to watch, you know, on a hot summer's day when you could be playing outside. Yeah, absolutely. So I remember it. Yeah, when I was an adult. Was it Tommy Crick playing outside? But you weren't.

You were inside watching cheaters. I was inside doing my taxes or watching cheaters. God, you're always doing your taxes. So cheaters have you even... They're almost done. Doesn't it feel like taxes go on forever and ever? Yeah. Like you're like, it's a whole quarter of the year just spent getting that all sorted.

Yeah. Sorted. Bullshit. Huh? Yeah, that's sorted. Sorted. Cheaters, if you didn't watch it was a show where-

Lauren Grove watching Puff a Pig. Where people would come- So I'm British. People would come to Tommy Greco and they would say- I think my husband's cheating, I mean- And then they would follow the people around with a camera. And then find him cheating in the car.

And then they were. They weren't cheating. And then they would confront them. Now is that real. And then find them cheating in the car. And then they were. They weren't cheating. And then they would confront them. Now is that real? No, I hear that they were all staged. No. Everyone's an actor. Yeah.

And same with all the Jerry Springer and all that stuff. Oh God. But I mean, what is going on? Maury Povich, let's talk about that. Now that apparently is real, the father DNA test, because he was like one of the, I saw something about him being like the first person Let's talk about that. Now that apparently is real, the father DNA test, because he was like one of the, I saw something about him being like the first person

to do that and it became like his whole thing. Like it was like a- Other people did it? Well, like, yeah, I think other people did eventually. Well, he got his signature move. But other people did do it, other shows. Like you would just go on his show not even expecting-

Didn't other shows do it? You're like, yeah, we wanna have you on Maury Povich talk about your dental hygiene. There you go. Okay. Well, anyway, I got a crown taken out. You are a father. The woman I slept with once?

What's she doing here? Have you ever thought about whether you could have a baby out there that you don't know about? Yeah, I have. I've gamed it out and I feel like I can't. I don't think, I feel like. I think I've kept track of everybody. I feel like I would have been told. At this point, at this point, you would, but I feel like back then I felt like people would

have told me just to shame me. But you hear these stories where it's just, hey, look at this baby. Aren't you ashamed? You did this. You piece of shit. But I feel like I would, I feel like I pretty much heard everything about everybody, I think. Like what they went on to do in their life? Yeah, and I would have heard about it. Look, you don't know everything

and you don't know what happened for them and you don't know how it played out and you never can know. What are you saying right now? I've narrowed it down to just the women that I've had penetrative sex with. Jesus Christ. Extra- had penetrative sex. Jesus Christ.

Extra penetrative sex. I've ruled out the others. You don't know that I couldn't have gone through the underwear. That was the kind of thing that always got put on like scary like shows that you watch. They didn't even have sex. It was like over the underwear and she's pregnant. Over the underwear. It can seep through. One strong sperm.

It seeps through, that's right, it seeps through. I guess. Who's your favorite sign of health character? Wow. Michael Richards off stage? Jerry's your favorite? No. Elaine.

Elaine is the best one. Elaine, the answer is Elaine. Maybe George the best one. Elaine, yeah, probably. The answer is Elaine. Maybe George. She's so fucking funny on that show. She's so funny, so pretty, so talented. She's just a great woman. I mean, they were a dream team for sure. They were all really good.

Jason Alexander was so good on that show, though. It's hard to see him in other shows because he's not doing the George thing. Yeah, in Pretty Woman. Have you watched that yet? No, not yet. What the heck? Yeah.

Well, he's in that. He's a mean man, I'm pretty sure. He's really not George-like. He was great on my television show, and I asked him how, because we just put out offers to people and never expecting anyone, and then he agreed to do it right away.

And I said, why did you agree to do this? He said, I just love the script. Aw, that's nice. It was like, it is a really funny script. Yeah, there you go. That's very nice. Did you ever see his episode of Criminal Minds? No. They're bringing that back, by the way. Oh, yes's nice. It was like, it is a really funny script. Yeah, there you go. That's very nice. Did you ever see his episode of Criminal Minds? No.

They're bringing that back, by the way. Oh, yes, I know. With the page? That's right. Page Bruce Day. He plays some sort of criminal mastermind or something, and he's got like this long white wig, and he's doing some kind of voice.

It's really, you have to see it, yes. It's adorable. It's worth taking a picture. It's adorable. Did you see the CSI with comedians where someone died on stage or whatever? No. Is there something in George Costanza's criminal mind?

What's his role? I can't, I've never seen it. I've only seen like clips of it. It's gotta be very tempting to play a criminal mastermind, right? I think the wig was his idea, where he was like, here's what I wanna look like. Well, it'd be helpful to kind of break up

the George of it all. Yeah. And also it's like, hey, I wanna have fun. I mean, I don't know. what I want to look like. Well, it'd be helpful to kind of break up the George of it all. Yeah. And also it's like, hey, I want to have fun. I mean, I never have to work again. I want wigs always. I want wigs always. It's hard to find like a way in to be different, to play like a big criminal mastermind, right?

Cause you don't want to play it all arch and like, ha ha, I know everything about it. Clarice. Paul Dano did an okay job in Batman, I think, like where he's just like a scared kid almost, but I don't know. Well, he seemed like a murderous lunatic to me. I guess, I don't know.

But even that's the other thing, playing the Joker. How do you find something new? Heath Ledger, he did a great job with it, but how do you like, you know, Caesar Romero after that. The ultimate. I mean, Joaquin found something new. Yeah. It was different. Yeah, he won an Oscar. No Joker, Joaquin found something new. Yeah. It was different.

Yeah, he won an Oscar. No Joker had walked down steps before and danced. Well, they hadn't. They started the movie from there. Like, how do we make this make sense? He won an Oscar. He won an Oscar. He won an Oscar.

Two Joker Oscars. Yeah, one of the only roles in cinema history that is two actors have won for. That's right. What's the other one? Well, there's not a lot of roles that are done over and over again. It is Vito Corleone. Like Anthony and won for. That's right. What's the other one? Well, there's not a lot of roles that are done over and over again.

It is, uh, uh. Like Anthony and Cleve. Vito Corleone. Oh, true. De Niro from Joker. And I think. And Brandy. Peter O'Toole is the only person to be nominated

for playing the same character. In different things? What about Judy Dench? In different movies. Didn't she play a queen in different movies? She played Queen Elizabeth in Shakespeare in Love. Did she play Queen Elizabeth again? I think maybe, I don't know. But Peter O'Toole played Henry the Second in A Man,

not A Man for All Seasons, Beckett and The Line in Winter. What did you loan to Coolop recently, A Man for All Seasons? What did you loan to Coolop recently? Was it COVID? I don't remember. Recently, was it? I think so. I think you gave her a movie and I think it was A Man don't remember recently. I think so. I think you gave her a movie and I think it was Man for All Seasons.

That sounds familiar. It sounds like something you would do. It does. Not so much Lauren. I would never. I really would. You hold onto your movie collection. Well, I'd lend a movie out,

but it would never be a Man for All Seasons. It's like, what about women? I'm talking about 13 going on 30. Speaking of women, I've never seen little women and I would love to watch it. Speaking of women. I would love to watch that. I brought this up to Bob Odenkirk about,

I asked him if he'd ever seen the, cause Bob's in the new one, which is really good. Right, that's the one I wanna see. And he just kind of like shows up out of the blue and everyone's like, oh. It was shocking to me and I knew he was in the movie. I had forgotten. And then when he shows up, I was like, what? I don't know whether that's because we know him,

but it seems to have had that effect on other people as well. Because someone layered the, took a video of it and layered his entrance with the, I don't know if you've seen the crowd applauding it, end game, Avengers end game. But that's a great. I have watched know if you've seen the crowd applauding it endgame Avengers endgame. But that's a great. I have watched that movie. That's really okay. So Avengers endgame someone

on opening night took a video of the crowd and recorded the crowd's reaction to the big like end where everyone comes back from the dead and shows up and people are like going crazy. They layered that on Bob Odenkirk's entrance in Little Women and it's really funny. Wasn't there, wasn't there, like, I feel like it was in the most recent Spider-Man movie where all three Spider-Mens were in it. And like when Andrew Garfield showed up, there was somebody recorded in the movie theater,

like there was a guy did back flips in front of the screen. He couldn't express himself. He's like, it's like a monkey. Exactly. Like being like, I's like a monkey. Exactly. Like being like, I just have to get this energy out. So funny. He had to have prepped for that and said, oh man, when they show Andrew,

Yes. So silly. Probably he saw Tofer McGuire and he's like, okay. Tofer McGuire. I think, why don't those two, they should condense them. Yes, into one person. Tofer McGraes. Tofer McGraes. Tofer McGraes. Tofer McGraes. Yes, into one person. Toe from a grace.

Toe from a grace, toe from a grace. Toe from a grace, toe from a grace. Toe from a grace. Grace grace bar. I was banging my foot in time. Why were you doing it? I should not be doing it. You shouldn't be doing it.

Is your foot healed? I'm sure it is because I was supposed to get this off three days ago, but my doctor was on vacation. So I'm getting it off tomorrow. I'm praying it is healed. No, it's a walking boot. But so why do you need them to remove it? Just because they have to look at it and go, it's all good.

I'm going to remove it. They're just going to X-ray it. Fear the walking boot. Although when I broke my other foot, when my brother ran over it, I'm sure I told this story, in a car. Wait, Jesus Christ, how many times now have you broken your feet? Your feet are trying to get away from you.

I broke my heel on this foot, my ankle on this foot, my foot, foot on the whole thing. The worst one was this one when my brother ran over it. I had to be in a cast all summer. So that foot with the boot is the same one from the other tour. From the tour, yeah. And why did he run over it?

I don't, I'm sure you do. Oh yeah, what was his reasoning? He was dropping me off at the library where I was volunteering all summer. Wow, what a great boy. Oh, so because you were a dork. He was like, oh, by the way, crunch. Oh, crunch.

And I got out of the car and I turned around to shut the door and my foot was by the wheel and I hadn't shut the door or whatever and he just took off. He like peeled out. And I, not, he rolled onto it and I went, ah, ow, ow, ow. And then he rolled back onto it and then.

Just to undo what he did. Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense. And then I was, then he tried to convince me not to tell our parents. The police. Oh. He's like, just walk it off, it's fine. Yeah. And then I was, then he tried to convince me not to tell our parents. He's like, just walk it off. It's fine. Don't do not tell our parents. Just walk it off.

Yeah. And I was like, it really hurt. I can't walk it off. How old were you? 13 or 14. Oh. 14. Sad. And so then I told them and went to the hospital and got a cast on it. But the one thing that I was thinking about the other day, because I've, because I have to take this boot off to shower

and stuff like that. And the showering or taking it off? Taking the boot off. Oh, okay. Because I know you do a little dance and you put on music. I'm free, I'm free. Ba-da-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-bwa-b It's deep. It's breathing. But when I got the cast off my foot after the whole summer of being on,

it was just like itchy as fuck and there's nothing to do. And the shriveled little white thing. You basically put a coat hanger down it and try to scratch. It was like a shower again. Yeah. But when they took it off,

there's like a giant leaf in there. That's what was itching? A leaf? Yeah, a giant leaf. A leaf. And they're like, oh, this must've been causing you some discomfort. I'm like, yeah. I'm sorry, that's soching? A leaf. Yeah, a giant leaf. A leaf. And they're like, oh, this must've been causing you some discomfort. I'm like, yeah.

I'm sorry, that's so crazy. A leaf. A leaf. That'd be so annoying. What a loose cast. Yeah. Well, no, I think it was already in there when he- Loose at the-

No, it wasn't there when they put it. They put it on me in the jungle. Alfresco. That's what I thought. I thought they accidentally sealed it up in there. It was stuck to his foot. Now, of course, you did have all your earthly possessions sealed up in there. Of course, one leaf.

And then you had to go back and look for it. And then you had to go back and look for it. And then you had to go back and look for it. And then you had to go back and look for it. And then you had to go back and look for it. And then you had to go back and look for it. I thought they accidentally sealed it up in there. It was stuck to his foot. Now, of course you did have all your earthly possessions sealed up in there. Of course, one leaf. Three mobs. Um, no, I was, I was, uh, volunteering for like a kids camp that summer too.

So I think I was outside a lot and you know, on crutches and- The leaves just blew in. Kids were stuffing leaves in your cast. Yeah. Probably kind of a new kick me thing, like a new kick me sign. Shove in leaves down there.

Someone signed your cast and said, shove leaves in here. Yeah. When you get a cast though, I mean, this is the plot of Dear Evan Hansen, but it's like, it's a lot of pressure of like, are people gonna? Waving through a window. Window, oh.

But I don't know any of the songs, I've never seen it. Waving through a window. I hear the movie's not good. The movie's not good, but the Broadway show is great. I actually listened to the soundtrack before I saw the show, which I never do, and I really enjoyed it, but I made up my own story of what was happening, and it wasn't right.

What was the story you made up? In my version, the Evan, Dear Evan Hansen, or the character was secretly gay and he and that guy were having a relationship because I didn't understand the letter of it all because of course I didn't have the dialogue to explain indeed what was happening. Context clues. Yes, so I thought that was a whole storyline

and so I was like kind of making all the songs make sense with that. Speaking of a whole storyline, I recommend the 1994 Little Women over the more recent one. Oh, interesting. I definitely saw that one back in the day, but I would watch it again. With Winona?

Yes. Judd? Yes, Winona and Judd. I love Winona Ryder. No, she's still alive. Winona's still alive. Oh, I'm sorry. It was Naomi who died, passed away.

Oh, I apologize to the entire Judd family. That was grim. That was very sad. Yeah, that's not something you wanna see see. Her memorial was great. Oh good. And Wynonna Todd was very funny at it. Oh really? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Crackin' Wise? She was Crackin' Wise. She was like doing a roast of her dear old mama and it was and it was really funny. I was I'd never seen her speak that much, much less make jokes. It was really funny. Okay. I'll have to check that out for a good time. Here's a, for a good time.

For a good time. Here's why I say that is because the 1994 one is told linearly and the most recent one shifts back and forth in time, it feels for just arbitrary reasons. Which it's become like, that's such a thing now where people are telling stories out of order and, you know, well, let's go back 80 minutes earlier. Yeah. It is a thing.

To when we were eating lunch. Janie was watching a show that was in, I think it was in Dutch and it's about the, this cast of characters in the present and when they were in their 20s. But the people in their 20s look absolutely nothing like the people. That's not good. So you only have their names to go on.

You gotta cast as close to that as you possibly. Yeah, you have to have signifiers. I think senior year did a good job with casting the characters. I think it did a good job. I think she is just so talented, the person playing the younger rebel. She's great.

She's so good. And she was on, she was in an Avengers movie. Yes. She's also in The Nice Guys and she's great. What's her name? Oh, The Nice Guys was good. Yeah, She was really talented in that. That was a really enjoyable movie. Or Nice Guys I haven't seen, but I mean Senior Year. It's fun, What's her name? Oh, The Nice Guys was good. Yeah, she was really talented in that. Nice Guys was great. That was a really enjoyable movie.

Or Nice Guys I haven't seen, but I mean. It's fun, it's really fun. It's really good. What's Nice Guys? It's Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe. And then Andrew Re-Rice is her name. Yeah. She's Australian.

Oh, so I thought she was doing the accent. No, she usually does American accents. She's been doing the American accent all the time. Yeah, she's been far from home. Yeah, she's so funny in the Spider-Man movies. She's playing Betty Brant, and she's doing the American accent all the time. Yeah, she's in Far From Home. Yeah, she's so funny in the Spider-Man movies. She's playing Betty Brant, and she's doing the terrible, almost between two fern style, terrible journalism, like school journalism videos.

She's very cute. She has a relationship with Ned's best friend, yeah. I haven't seen any of those Tom Holland Spider-Mans, but I've heard they're great. It's actually odd that I have seen them and you haven't. It feels wrong and the universe is bad. She's also in something called Daisy Quokka, world's scariest animal.

Well, Quokka, Quokka. Quokka. Quokka. Now we know we missed him. Wow. We missed our chance. So she is in a cartoon and she plays a Quokka? I believe it is a cartoon.

And she, I mean, she plays Daisy Quokka, so. We have to assume it's a Quokka. If that's the name of the show, that's pretty good. To have not only your name above the title, but on the title. Main Kwaka. Hey. Oh. Oh. Sha.

Lower the noise. So Al Pacino. Yeah. He does. Let's break it down. He does sound up a woman. And he gets. You're Al Pacino, you are an actor.

In the world is Al Pacino. So he does stand up a woman and he comes up with this noise, right? Uh-huh. And he gets an Oscar for it. Da douche. Da douche. But why don't we come up with noises as actors,

you constantly do it in whatever movie. You're right, you're right. And it's like basically Megan Thee Stallion's, blah, you know, like. But he only did that noise in that one movie. That's what I'm saying. But it was enough to catapult him to the Oscar. And now anytime you do an Al Pacino impression,

it's like, what is the noise he does? Ooh, ah. Yeah, you know? Or you say, say hello to my little friend. Say hello to my little friend. She's got a great ass. Well, that's what we do, of course. The devil's.

Reject, what was it? The devil's where's Prada. The devil. I'm the devil! What was that one? I'm a fan of man! The devil's advocate. Yeah.

So what noise would you do Lauren? If I could do any noise in a film. Well, I think you have to provide the character. Yeah, cause then I'll make it work for other characters. She's a high powered attorney who defends, she's a defense lawyer. She's high powered, gets paid a lot for it. Oh, I have one for this.

And she, but she goes, when she goes home, she has three little tiny mice that she takes care of. And she's always thinking about the mice whenever she's at work. And she's always thinking about work whenever she's with the mice. What? Why am I always doing that? Yeah, Al Pacino's was just cause he was in the Marines.

Yeah. Yeah. But I'm a lawyer and I go home and think about law, but I'm with my little mice and when I'm at work, I'm only thinking about the mice. Yeah, what noise would you do? I'd go like this. That covers both. This is not bad.

If you were to do that in a movie, I think it would be very funny. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Look, we have to take a break. We're going to hear Paul's noise when we come back. Good cliffhanger. This is great. Wow. I love this. Hi, I'm Jessica St. Clair and I'm June Diane Raphael. And we are two friends trying to survive the chaos and celebrate the joy that life throws our

way. And we do it every week on our podcast, The Deep Dive. Sometimes we dig into the deep stuff, like how I communicate with my dead best friend. And sometimes we give bad advice based off a TikTok I saw. And we're not going to apologize for that. Absolutely not. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll hire a psychic medium. Join us, won't you? Listen to the Deep Dive wherever you get your podcasts

from Lemonade Media. Are you waxed? No, I'm unwaxed. Hi guys. I'm Sophia. And I'm Sistine Stallone, and this is Unwaxed. We are less judgmental than your best friend. Way cheaper than a therapist.

And less painful than a wax. Join us every Tuesday where we discuss dating, bettering yourself and hilarious stories. So listen to Unwaxed from Lemonade and Media, wherever you get your podcasts, or check us out on YouTube to see the video version. And we will see you next Tuesday. Bye.

And we're back. Whoa, so soon? So soon and soon, soon you're a balloon. Time to hear Paul's noise. And Paul. I just said that to Janie the other day. Soon, soon what? And she said what are you talking about? It's a Mr. Show reference. Soon, soon you're a balloon?

Soon, soon you're a balloon. Just one of the funniest lines. Is it the one David Cross says? I don't know what it really is. Why did they get, you wrote on this season, right? No, it's Bob said that, to David Cross. Yeah. It was a sketch about a hate group,

a white supremacist group where they only had one white member. And Bob was in brown face as an Indian man. Right, which was okay back then. Oh yeah, and I was in yellow faces, Japanese. I think that was all good back then. That was fine. Yeah, everyone loved it.

It was a tribute to those people. I had somebody once said that to me about, like an older person said that to me years ago about Blackface, about like minstrel shows. That was a tribute to Black people. All right, shut the fuck up. It's just a tribute. And so David at one point,

like when are we gonna do the hate crimes or whatever? Like the revolution, you know? And David is saying, he's soon, soon. And Bob goes, soon, soon, you're a balloon. And it was very hard not to say it. It's so funny. It's just one of those lines where I don't even know how anyone even thinks of it.

Exactly, yes. So good. Yeah. All right, so what's Paul's character, Lauren? Paul, your character is, okay, so it's kind of like a reboot of Mr. Yeah. All right, what's Paul's character, Lauren? Paul, your character is, okay, so it's kind of like a reboot of Mr. Mom. Okay. So you're managing like all the household tasks.

22, 23, whatever it takes, yes. And you're like, you got a lot to do and it's also kind of like- Got a lot. You got a lot to do and it's like you have, you're like sweeping, you're always sweeping, you're always cleaning and you're always nursing the baby with a bottle.

And you're just kind of, you have your hands full all the time. Yeah, well, baby and bottle. And normally you're a baseball player, but you had to take off because the mom. So it's during the regular season? Get this in just under the wire. The mom.

You were almost done. The mom couldn't. Normally you're a baseball player. The mom's tired. So this is like May to November? It's during the season. During the actual season. Am I a major league player?

Yeah, you're in the MLB. Okay. All right, so is that it? Yeah, that's it. Mr. Mom, usually baseball player, very beleaguered, have to do all this stuff. Also not doing my job, which I like to do because my wife is supporting the family.

Right. Ah, outta here! Oh, it's almost out of here. Almost. By an umpire, but it's not. It's almost, it has like faint memories of his time playing baseball, but he knows that he can't really go there all the way now

because he's technically Mr. Mom. Yeah. He doesn't realize he's almost saying, I'm out of here. I'm getting notes of... Persimmon? Yeah. All right, Paul, what's my character?

Oh, shit, that's right. Not false to be. Oh, fuck. All right. Put out the doobie. What about the doobie guys, we're recording. Put out the doobie. Doobie guys recording. Put out the doobie. Can you imagine if she had no idea it was poking pot whenever she left the house?

But I have the doobie cool up so she can't know. So Scott, you're a pothead. Okay. But you're also a thoracic surgeon. And the hospital has been condemned. And you are, you know, you're doing surgeries while a wrecking ball is smashing into the other end of the hospital.

And is my noise surprise at the wrecking ball or is it? This is up to you, it's your noise, it's your character. Okay, huh, okay. All right, I'm gonna pretend to smoke a dupe first and then I'm gonna pretend I'm miming. We all didn't get to do that, by the way. We didn't get to act out full scenes. We didn't get to ask questions even.

Neither of you chose to do it. Fuck! Okay. Now my mom's writing, I hate when he's writing. Me too. What's that noise? Wrecking Ball. Yaboo! Oh my gosh. Do you think you're gonna do that in a lot of films? I'm so mad about how perfect it is. Um, is this water for me? I'm assuming it is. Yes, ma'am. I just want to drink it. Let's all watch Lauren drink water. I guess she did it. What do you think? Tastes almost. Here's the thing about water.

It tastes like nothing, but it tastes like something. You know what I'm saying? It's odorless. It's flavorless. It's water. Everyone, you know, it's really good. I forgot to bring my. No, why don't you guys talk?

I'm going to get mine because now I'm jealous. Oh, okay, little one. Oh, good luck. He's got to get his. Oh, there he goes. He's got to get his. He's got to stumble and... Oh, Frankenthaler.

Oh, pebble-egg-peep. Oh, pebble-egg-peep. Shit, I can't get by you. Don't fall down. We can't work together to lift you up and do all that. Oh, I was going to say we can't lose you, but that does sound like a pain in the ass. Will that suck?

If he falls, let's make a deal. Is there another glass in the cabinet? Let's make a deal right now. If he ever falls down, we're not picking him up. I'm not picking him up. There's no way. It's like, take the key. I will call an ambulance,

no matter what the circumstance is. I'll call a task rabbit. I'll call a task rabbit. Yeah. Okay, he got his water. Okay, good, he's all set. Hey. Hey. Hey.

What were you guys talking about? We were talking about you and how much we love you. Yeah. Oh, how much is it? Not much. We would not pick you up. That's not very much. It's as far as my arms can extend.

But it's compared to like the universe, it's almost nothing. You all need to duke it out. What if the universe could fit in here? You all need to duke it out. What if the universe could fit in here? You all need to duke it out. Oh shit, and I'm hugging it. Oh hell. So.

So yeah, what's up? Yeah, Lauren, what's up? Why did you call us here? I wanted to ask you a kind of serious question. Like if you had, okay, so let's say the floor was lava. Yeah, yeah. And you were on the couch, could you jump up to that fan and hold on while it's on spinning you

so you could fly and fling yourself out the door? Well, I mean, that's the dream, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I could. You actually think you could. Yeah. Do you watch Flora's Lava and go like, these fucking idiots, do it this way.

I've never watched Flora's Lava, but if I did, I'm sure I would. I'd like to watch it though. I know somebody who's on it. Oh, who's that? Her name is Alyssa Sabo. She was a contestant. She's been a contestant on a lot of game shows. Her name's familiar to me.

Ooh, my episode of that show that I did will be coming out soon, right? The game show. The pyramid? $100,000 pyramid. Yeah. Oh, it was fun. Maybe it already aired.

I don't even know. Yeah, it probably already aired when this is out because it was out in September. Do they use the same thing? Oh, well, I think it already aired, I don't even know. Yeah, probably already aired when this is out, because it's out in September. Do they use the same theme song? Oh, well, I think it already aired now. Oh. Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da. I do think so.

Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da. That's the best, when it goes up high like that. I wanna be on a game show once a month. How do I make this happen? I need to like- I know. I mean, there's ways. I think it's so fun. We could film them. Why don't you tell your agency? Yeah. Yeah. Can I represent you? I bet you can make this happen? I need to like- I know. I mean, there's ways. I think it's so fun. Why don't you tell your agency?

Yeah. Can I represent you? I bet you can make that happen. That's true. Can I represent you for only 9%? No, because I don't think you'll do anything. Yeah, I won't. Yeah.

If I make- But I won't make any money. That's true, but neither will I. If I make it happen But I won't make any money. That's true, but neither will I. If I make it happen, can I get... Because your thing is you just want to be on the game show. That's the fun of it, right? That's it for now. So I would say if I could make you...

If I could get you on a game show, me, myself, I can make this happen. Get you on a game show once a month. Yeah. 50%. That's low. That's so much to ask for. No, but you just wanna play the game. You would do it for free.

That's not why exactly. It's a little bit of both. It's a little bit of both. So 50% is a little bit. Yeah. Perfect amount. I don't know. 50%

I don't trust you guys. 50% is both a little bit and a lot. You don't know, I don't trust you guys. I'm kinda nervous. 50% is both a little bit and a lot. You don't need to be nervous, honey. But I'm freaking out. I have your best interest. Don't freak out. So do you ever look at your Emmys and go, I really did it. She's talking to Scott, obviously.

I'm just sitting here looking at his Emmys. Why, but okay. I wish I were famous. Why, you don't ever say that? I wish I were famous enough so that I could be on game shows as a celebrity guest. You're mad. But I also wish I was famous enough that people knew how to spell my name. That is actually driving me crazy at this point when I see the typos. At this point it's like, come on. Google it. Here's what's really sharp.

If you're typing someone's name. Google it, chef. If you're typing someone's name onto something. Oh, we predicted the bear, I think. You should make sure you're spelling it correctly. But here's the thing. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear.

I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're the bear. I get why people think that you're typing someone's name onto something, you should make sure

you're spelling it correctly. But here's the thing, I get why people think they hear it and they think they got it, but most usually by the time I'm seeing it on a placard or something like happened in a comic con, it's because it's been written down by the initial person who thought they knew how to spell it, and. Yeah. And then everyone else is just copying it. Why does anyone think it's Thumpkins anyway? It's either Thumpkins. Because of Thompson? With an H and the P. Yeah, because of that.

Yeah. Or it's T-O-M-K-I-N-S, or it's T-H-O-M-K-I-N-S. But the thing is- Now I'm confused as to what it actually is. The only time I ever encountered those spellings is when someone is spelling my name incorrectly. Because Tompkins is not a name, because when you see your own name,

you're very aware of it. It's not a name that I come across that often. And the only time I see those spellings is when someone is spelling my name wrong. It's really weird. That is weird. Look, should my name have an H in it? It should.

I'll say it right now. Of course it should. Should you change it? Legally change it? Yeah, I think it should. I can't, I can't disrespect my family like that. How about this one? How about this one? I was shooting something with a person

that I just met that day, and they were also in the thing, but we were using our real names in the thing. And- You can say it's Kirby enthusiast. It certainly was. It was definitely not. This was a long time ago, using our real names in the thing. And- You can say it's curb your enthusiasm. It certainly was. It was definitely not, this was a long time ago,

but anyways. So it couldn't have been curb your enthusiasm. It was a year ago, and it wasn't curb. It was not a, it wasn't a scripted thing. And- Curb isn't. Okay, oh God. This is curb. Why are you dancing around this floor?

It wasn't, we weren't acting. Oh. Curb! Oh! And this person, like we'd been doing something Why are you dancing around this floor? It wasn't, we weren't acting. Curb! Ugh! And this person, like we'd been doing this for like four hours. To be true. And then we were about to come back and shoot another piece and then she was like, how do you pronounce your name again?

I was like, Lauren. I think she just had no idea what it was, but that was her way to ask me. Had she avoided using it up to that point? I guess, but I'm like, first of all, I said my own name in it. Second of all, it's okay if you missed that, but just ask me, just say I totally spaced

on what your name is. Well, it's the way to couch, like, of course, I didn't forget your name. I just don't know how to pronounce it. But it's like, my name is so basic. I know, but she thought, like, she was hoping it was something that was complicated. I forget, there was a comic that had a bit about that, about a way to try to get, if

you forget somebody's name and it's like, Oh yeah, could you spell, might've been Todd Glass. Could you spell that for me? Yeah. J I M. You see Todd's thing the other day about, about, uh, if someone's having a boring conversation with you. To the bathroom. about if someone's having a boring conversation with you. Yes. Do you have a bathroom?

And then he goes in, you can hear him loudly just making noise like this. And then a friend comes to the door and goes, is everything all right? And he goes, oh yeah, yeah, just using the bathroom. And then he comes back and he goes, so, hey man, it was really interesting what we were talking about. What were you saying? And then the person starts to retell back and he goes, so, hey, man, I was really interested in what we were talking about. What were you saying?

And then the person starts to retell it and he goes, oh, I'm getting a call. And then he puts the phone up to his ear and it's obviously the recording he made in the other room. He's like, what's that, honey? Oh no, I have to go because my father's dying. And then suddenly the person knocks on the door. Hey, what's going on? Yeah, I'm in the bathroom. while there's time. Dibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibidibid I'm not taking on any more Instagram clients though. You got it. Make room for Todd. Make room for Todd.

Mute somebody else and get Todd in there. He's doing this thing now where he's talking to an empty chair. Like it's him. He cuts back and forth between him and a microphone and then an empty chair with a microphone in front of it. And like the one he did most recently was like, I was watching Judge Judy and usually she's pretty fair

the other day, she sent someone to the electric chair. I'm like, what? I'm like, what? Guys, it just brings me so much joy. I love people like that. He's just silly, he's a silly asshole. He's a fucking dickhead. I'm sorry to talk about someone other than you, Lauren.

No, I don't know him, but I'm happy to hear the stories and he sounds great and I'll check out his Instagram content. I love it. She's so jealous right now. No, I don't know him, but I'm happy to hear the stories and he sounds great and I'll check out his Instagram content. I love it. She's so jealous right now. No, I'm not. I'm really happy for Todd. Green is not your color, Lauren. I really am.

I'm really happy for him. I'm happy you guys love his stuff. We'll look at your stuff. No, I don't wanna do Instagram content. I'll look at your 1, 1000 dotted lines of Bachelor watching. I wait to do that until a little bit later in the season. That's smart. Because it's just too much.

That's smart. That's smart. But it will be happening soon. And if you wanna hear my thoughts on Bachelor, I was on Arden's podcast. Will you accept this rose? It's over by now, I think. So what?

So what? So what? So what? So what? So what? I have been watching FBoy Island by the way, Cool Up and I have. What does the F stand for?

Fuck. Oh no. And they say it, Paul. No. They spray it too. Well, my friend created the show. Elon. Elon Musk.

I like it, Cool Up likes it way more than The Bachelor. I think it's good. I started watching it, but I didn't finish, but I have so many shows that I have to watch. And it's hosted by Nikki Glaser. Yeah, she's good at it too. I have, my list is ever winding. And I was just having a conversation with some friends

and they were listing all these shows that we should all watch. We were all telling, we're all sharing recommendations and they were majority British shows. Oh man, let's cut British shows just right out. No, what's great about British shows, a lot of times it'll be six episodes. It's just six great episodes

and you're just like, yep, that was awesome. I like that. It's very manageable. And American TV is now getting that manageable with streaming. Yeah. To its detriment. You think so? Well, to the actors and people who make them detriment.

Yeah, it's more fun to do more episodes. Well, all those famous people that are in five TV shows? I think they're doing okay. That is true. People do get to do a lot. The whole business sucks. It truly does. Why did we bother?

It sucks at getting suckier. Well, there's so many times where actors will be on like five shows and then I'm like, why are they allowed to do that when I feel like I'm never allowed to do more than one thing at the same time. Every fucking, any contract I've signed it's like you can't do this or that I'm like this guy's doing he's doing a game show he's doing this that the other thing because they won't sign those contracts

and you will that hurts my Me, me, me, me. Oh, listen to how Paul cries. Me, me, me, me, me. Me, me, me, me. Me, me, me. Me, me. He's calling for his me, me. I wish my me, me was here.

Oh, do you remember your me, me? Vaguely. I've been having a lot of dreams. Okay, I'm having a weird thing lately where I actually feel very, I'm feeling very positive and very, like, excited creatively about the things that I'm doing and really enjoying them, but I'm having weird stress dreams where things are not going well.

But I'm not feeling like the daylight fear of that stuff like I often have in the past. So it's very strange to me that I'm having these classic stress dreams that I used to have when I was feeling that way all the time. Do they relate to something else in your life though? And the, and your brain is just reverting back to, Oh, this is the stress dream that I do. No, I want to get out of my marriage, but I, No, I don't, I don't know.

I don't, I don't know if it's like, if it's like the vestiges of that feeling that I've just lived with for so long. Or maybe just every once in a while they trot out the classics. Yeah, the one I had recently was great because it was, and they always, always, always will be at my childhood home.

And it's like in the house, in my cousin's house who were right next door, because we lived in a duplex. And that's interesting that you're actually going that far back. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did you say suplex? It's right above the duplex. As established on a previous episode.

So it was- It's called a callback. It was winter, it was winter, and there was like a kind of, we shared this big backyard. Thank you, this is great. Oh guys, this is good. And I'm all alone.

Ho, ho, ho. No, it's not, it's just winter, it's not Christmas time. Oh, good boy. I don't know if there was a horse. Good boy. Oh, he left, I see. I'm delivering the mail. He was on horse Santa Claus?

I'm delivering the mail. It's January 9th. Nobody's there. Oh. I'm all by myself. Bye bye. And so I'm walking around the back of my house towards my cousin's there. Oh. I'm all by myself. Bye-bye. And so I'm walking around the back of my house towards my cousin's house in our shared yard was all water, it was frozen over, but I knew there were sharks in there.

Ooh. And these are the kind of sharks that could like kind of edge out of the water a little bit. They like to edge. But they look like sort of like whales, like small whales. But I remember like, so I was walking past and then one got out of the water and like was trying to like get me.

And I'm walking away from it like, hey, like if you saw like a dog in your neighbor, a stray dog in your neighbor, that seemed like it was being kind of dicey. Yeah. And I was walking around the corner and this shark was like still, he couldn't get me but he was still trying to.

Still trying, yeah. And I was just kinda watching him in fascination. And of course it was scary. Whoa. Because he's a shark. So and this is related to something, this is one you've had often or this is- No, I've never had that one before.

Oh, okay. I had one that I'll tell you off mic. That's a classic for me. But a new spin on an old classic. I had an earthquake dream the other night. Ooh. And I really thought, I woke up and I was like, oh, I had a dream about an earthquake.

Then I went on Twitter and typed in earthquake, just to see, because you know people always tweet when there's an earthquake. They love it. And no, there wasn't. What an interesting story. Yeah. Janie has a good ability to feel earthquakes so quickly. Yeah, she's always tweeting about them.

But she will also- I will learn about them from her Twitter. Absolutely, but she will also feel a lot of false earthquakes. Oh. And it's like if she just wakes up in the middle of the night, she's like, earthquake? I'm like, no, no honey, there's no earthquake. Earthquake. Every single night. Earthquake. Earthquake. Earthquake. All right, we have to take a break. Earthquake.

Hi, I'm Jessica St. Clair and I I'm June Diana Raphael. And we are two friends trying to survive the chaos and celebrate the joy that life throws our way. And we do it every week on our podcast, The Deep Dive. Sometimes we dig into the deep stuff, like how I communicate with my dead best friend. And sometimes we give bad advice based off a TikTok I saw. And we're not going to apologize for that. Absolutely not. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll hire a psychic medium. Join us, won't you?

Listen to the Deep Dive wherever you get your podcast from Lemonade Media. I'm Hasan Minhaj and I have been lying to you. I only pretended to be a comedian so I could trick important people into coming on my podcast, Hasan Minhaj Doesn't Know, to ask them the tough questions

that real journalists are way too afraid to ask. People like Senator Elizabeth Warren. Is America too dumb for democracy? Outrageous. Parenting expert Dr. Becky. How do you skip consequences without raising a psychopath? That's a good question. Listen to Hasan Minhaj doesn't know from Lemonada media, wherever

you get your podcasts. And we're back. And we are, we have to be back at this point, right? Did we introduce ourselves? Yeah. Why wouldn't we have? I think we forget sometimes. I don't know if we did.

What is the third segment? I feel like we have? I think we forget sometimes. I don't know if we did. What is the third segment? People have to Google this at this point. I feel like we owe it to people. People have a subscription to this podcast. Like, wait, who are these three? What happened to Scott, Paul, and Lauren? By the way, there used to be a, you know, how Shazam, you can hold a song that's playing up to.

Of course. Solomon, Hercules, Achilles, Zeus. Who's the other Atlas? Atlas and Mercury. Yeah, so back when they first invented it, there was a different app that you could just hum a song into, and it would tell you what it was. Back then there was? Yeah, it was, and then it went out of business or whatever, and it happens to me so much where I'm like what is this la da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da and I've missed that app Bohemian Rhapsody yeah but I'm doing an obvious one but uh how about this how about this la da da da da da Siri what is this song? Dee dee dee dee dee dee. Mary had a little lamb. No, but there's a new app that does,

or no, Google whatever does it now. I just heard about this. I'm so happy. Google whatever? Yeah, Google it, chef. Google whatever. You can sing a ditty to it, and it'll tell you what it is. Yeah, you just sing into it,

and it'll go, you are listening to, I want it that way, or whatever. Wow, that's really amazing. Like sing it. Do do do doot. Do do. Like singing. Do do do do. Do do do do. Do do do do. Hello mother.

Let's try it right now. Hello father. Here I am at Camp Granada. Hello mother. Let's try it, let's try it. I wanna see if it works. Camp Granada. Hello, mother. Let's try it, let's try it. I wanna see if it works. How do you do it? I've never done it before.

You're the one that told me, you fucking freak. I just read about it, you fucking lunatic. You piece of shit. So what's a song? Oh fuck, good question. I looked up sing and it's saying sing two. Sing two? Da da da da da.

Okay, I'm gonna look up what song is this. Okay, what is this song? What song is this lady? I don't know how to do it, Paul. I just thought I'd mention it. Well, thank you. I appreciate that. And Teach a Man to Fish and all that, I get you.

Yeah. Whatever. It's time for and all that, I get you. Yeah. Whatever. It's time for a three-chur. Fuck. Sorry. This one's called Play It Again! Oh yeah! Now refresh my memory.

Okay. I don't think I recall. We play three film critics. One of us suggests a classic movie that shouldn't have a sequel. And then we're three film critics describing the sequel to that film. One of us suggests a classic movie that shouldn't have a sequel. And then we're three film critics describing the sequel to that film. I don't think we've done this.

We've done it. Yeah, it sounds familiar. Okay. Familiar. And then we talk about the plot, we talk about the title, we talk about why it should have been made, shouldn't have been made,

what we think of it, all that kind of stuff. Great. So Lauren, do you wanna throw out any movie? Hey, can I make an adjustment? Yeah. I don't think we have to talk about why it should or shouldn't be made. I think the fun is creating the sequel to a movie that should not have a sequel. Okay.

So you want to shut down anyone who talks about why it shouldn't have been? And I will. If you start to do it, I'm going to start fucking making noise, going to lay down on the ground. Okay. Okay. Why didn't you promise me that? Oh, it is my dear promise to you. Uh, da da da da da.

Da da da da da da da da da da. Google, what is this? Da da da da da da da. What's up? Hello, hello, bother. Hello, hello, bother. The movie is Serendipity. Hey everyone, welcome back to We Watch the Movies.

So you don't have to. I remember that it happened, but I don't remember the story. My co-hosts are having a conversation and we're already on camera. Well, we're not rolling yet. John, you're stuck. Yeah, we are rolling.

Hi everyone, there's a little peek behind the curtain. Yeah, go where you're. Oh, sorry, we were just kind of catching up with the first one a little bit. Hope you don't mind. Anyway, welcome to the show. No wonder our ratings suck. Chip, that's another thing that you don't have to talk about it while the cameras are on. Everyone knows.

Everyone knows, I know. Why are you whispering yet a microphone on? That's a good point. Anyway. We know we suck, okay? We're going to do a deep dive on the new sequel to the classic movie Serendipity, Lauren. Starring Joan Cusack and.

John Cusack. John Cusack. John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale. Catherine Zeta-Zale. Oh, I thought Catherine Zeta-Jones is in the first one. I guess not. No, it's. Kate Beckinsale. Bridgette Roman, or whatever her name is,

who is later to be seen in Sex and the City as Big's new wife. Well, in any case. Big's new wife. Obviously. Here's what happened to the first. Neither of us have seen the first one, but we did watch the first.

So I was lost in the sequel. Yeah, and by the way, it's called Serentupidy. The Serentupidy, the first one, of course, is about John Cusack meets a woman by chance. Yes, hence the title. She writes her phone number in the book Love in the Time of Cholera. She hands it off to, or she puts it on a $5 bill,

I don't know what happened. And they each exchange their number. I'd be too busy looking at Lincoln. They put one phone number in a book and one phone number on a dollar, and they send those off into the world. And they go, hey, if it's meant to be, it's meant to be, we'll meet again.

Cut to years later, he's getting married to somebody else. Oh no. Good. And she finally finds his number, connects with him, finds him all that stuff and it's serendipity how they meet. Now, of course, in the sequel, we have them just

living their daily lives. They have a family together, they're married. Well what I thought was really interesting was he did this for all of his children. He wrote his name on $5 bills and he just left them lying around the house. Yeah, and if you figure this out, then I'm your dad. What I thought was interesting about it,

and I'm not saying this is good, but I thought was interesting, is that it's almost like a reverse link later where instead of revisiting these characters, taking years to catch the various points in their life, it's one 24-hour movie. Yeah. And it's 24 hours after their wedding, which I thought was really interesting. They adopted all these children in that 24-hour movie.

And it's really, you know, not a lot happens in the day. No. And you're very tempted to sleep. They're sleeping for eight hours of it. You don't wanna miss anything. It's uncanny that the filmmakers seem to know when you, the audience member, will be dropping off to sleep because loud noises start blaring. Alarms, fire alarms, smoke alarms, all sorts of stuff.

That the people on screen can't hear because they're dubbed in later. No, it's not part of the scene. No, it's just to keep us awake. These characters can't hear this. Yeah dubbed in later. No, it's not part of the scene. No, it's just key buzz away. These characters can't hear this. Yeah, in case you're wondering why they're not reacting. Which sort of made me mad anytime I would wake up, you know, jarring to wake

and then see that these people, the first thing I'm learning is like, they're sleeping peacefully. Yeah. Yeah. Now here's why I didn't think this movie should be made. Oh, I thought we weren't gonna do that anymore. Ah! You too, Siskel and Ebert, always fighting.

Okay, I won't talk about it. Sorry. I think it shouldn't have been made because obviously it's a horrible idea. I think why it should have been made is because we need to know more about these characters. We go, we watch the whole first film, we don't know where they go.

This is the first film that truly answers the question, is there a happily ever after? Yes. How many times do you watch a movie and the movie ends and you go, now what? Where'd they go? Where'd they go? Why are all these names on screen? I do that three times.

Where'd they go? Are they all right? Are they dead? That's why First Guller's Day Off remains the best movie because at the end, the filmmakers take care to have the main character come out and say, go home, the movie is over. Thank you.

And I appreciate that because so often I don't know what happened and I'm scared. Yes. Yeah, I'm frightened, the lights come up, I'm like, I'm even more frightened now that lights are up. Yes. Absolutely. The world on the screen has disappeared. Has my world disappeared?

Exactly, can people see me, am I a ghost? Yeah. And this film takes care of that in a really interesting way. And what I also love about the film is that it's all new actors playing the roles. They look nothing like the original cast. Absolutely nothing like them.

There's a difference in ages of about 40 years. Yeah. And they're all birds as well. I mean, we can spoil it, but every actor is a bird. Well, if you've seen the trailer, you know that they're all birds. I thought it was also weird that the actors playing the parents were also playing the children.

And they were spank themselves. Yeah, and they were double cast, so they were saying the lines at the same time. Like one suggestion I would give, like I liked how it was called Serentupity, but I felt like it could have been Serentucanpity. Yeah. Because of the birds. Yeah. Also Serengas 2K Pithy was one title I thought of.

What does that mean? Oh, I just thought it would be a good title. I thought a good title would be Serengeti-tipity if it had been All Lions instead of Birds. Serengeti-tipity? Yeah, you heard me. I thought it was interesting how one scene in the middle of the actor's understudies played.

And what I thought was weird was that it was called Seren- So they were holding sides. Seren-tipity, I thought it should be called Serengeti-tipity-tenitis. Well, I will praise the movie for the concept. I think the concept is flawless, but the execution was a little lacking for me. The execution in the scene, in the middle, the execution scene. Yeah. It was gross. And he didn't really die. It was really raw. And they gave him his last meal and he wanted ice cream.

I thought, okay, I'm gonna watch him eat a gallon of ice cream, really? He's a bird. So when they behead him in the guillotine, then the ice cream spills out the neck. It's like, I didn't even see that. And then another bird starts eating it? Oh, my feeling was he didn't get to digest it.

Yeah. I mean, you don't even give him a minute. It was also store-brand ice cream, which I thought was a real slap in the face. It was Kroger. I mean, you don't even give him a minute. It was also store brand ice cream, which I thought was a real slap in the face. It was Kroger. I thought that was kind of like, could we have, just for the sake of the film, spent a little more on ice cream.

A Breyers, a Haagen-Dazs. Just for his last, it's his last meal. I mean, look, I don't know. I don't believe, I don't agree with the crimes he committed, but I feel that he could have had Breyers or Haagen-Dazs. And for me, as someone who's gonna be executed tomorrow morning, I thought, is this what I can expect? Oh, you didn't tell us.

It's tomorrow. It's tomorrow. They finally scheduled it? They moved it up, yeah. Oh, congratulations. They said they got sick of my complaining, and so they moved it up. Because you kept saying when, when, when.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, and there's like fine. Quando, quando, quando. Fine, yeah, I was saying it to them. And so yeah, I'm getting executed tomorrow for my last meal. Yeah, what are you having? I did an end run because I thought, I bet the quality of the last meal is not that good.

So I said, I want a Swanson TV dinner because I know what that is, I know what to expect. Got it. So I'm getting the Salisbury steak, the mashed potatoes and the apple pie. I do worry it won't be that good, but that's fine. Oh, I forgot to tell them to heat it up. They might give it to me cold.

Oh no, frozen. Isn't that mean? I requested to watch Frozen 2. You have to tell them how to prepare it? What's that? You have to tell them how to prepare it? Yeah, I guess that's a loophole. Down to the last detail, I guess.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I think anyone would know to put it in the microwave. Because a lot of times people ask for fried chicken, they'll just get a chicken and a fryer and then they have to do it themselves. Yeah. That's tedious. And not even like a- Time consuming. Like a fryer.

People have to make their own last meals. Do people understand that? The prisoners have to make their own last meals? No, we don't understand. Don't order something too complicated because you're gonna be there all night. I'd say if I had to do it over again? I guess I'd do PB&J.

I was just gonna say PB&J. Yeah, you slap it together. Anyway, see- Speaking of slap together, I thought this movie, like why didn't they turn- Oh, you slap it together. Anyway, see. It's being slapped together. I thought this movie, like why didn't they turn. Oh the movie, right. Why didn't they turn the cameras on? Well, it was all supposed to be audio. I think that was like a sort of.

It was so strange, because you could hear them go, should we turn these on? And some would go, nah, don't worry about it. They didn't edit that out. What was the point of the Polaroids then? But they described the ice cream pouring out of his neck. And at that point, see, some of it was like a little too descriptive.

Yeah. Yeah. And also, we don't even know if that's actually what happened. Yeah, we don't. Anything could be. I mean, that's how you save on a budget. It probably was, but they probably didn't film anything. Because I remember it was the director's voice at the very beginning saying,

this is what happens in the movie, you'll have to take my word for it. Yeah. And he talks for like three of the 24 hours. Wow. Describes all of the 24 hours, and then we just sit there in silence and black. Yeah. And he talks for like three of the 24 hours. Wow. Describes all of the 24 hours. And then we just sit there in silence and black. Yeah. Yeah.

Anyway, great movie. Yeah. Five stars. I give it my own rating, which is 27 fork spoons with a side of potatoes. These are not sports. No. Fork spoons.

Yeah. Yeah, got it. And what do you give me? I mean, it's the last movie you're ever gonna see. Well, I want to say very quickly, a friend of mine's son, he's two years old and he pronounces the name Forky from Toy Story as Fucky. And it's very funny. That's very funny. Yes. Fucky. Got to find Fucky. Fucky. What about Sucky? I don't think there's a character called Sorky. Maybe the West Wing. Aaron Sorkin, sure. I'm gonna give this a rating of B.

B like B movie? So an A plus? No. Oh. B like Billy Bathgate. Oh, Billy Bathgate, that's two Bs. Oh, K-Star. Yeah, two Bs.

I give it two Bs. You give it two Bs, wow. Incredible. Amazing. And what did you give it? Did you already do it? A plus. A plus. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. And what did you give it? Did you already do it? A plus. A plus.

Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. He gave it five stars. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it.
