["Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1 in D minor"] Hi everybody. Welcome back to the Tri Force Podcast. Can you believe it?
Starting point is 00:01:04 We're here. I have some huge news for all of you. I'm sure that you guys are going to be so thrilled to hear about this. Can I try and guess it? I love. Yes. Yes, please go. The work is finally finished on your house. No, the apprentice has finished. No, you're having another baby inexplicably.
Starting point is 00:01:23 God, no. No. Okay. My, um, my, the SSD that my windows install was on failed. Completely, completely failed. I went, uh, I came into the garage the other day to turn on my computer, turned it on. It's just stuck at like the, you know, the motherboard logo screen. Yeah. Right before the BIOS. Oh, wow. on it's just stuck at like the you know the motherboard logo screen yeah yeah right before the bios oh wow couldn't even get into the bios to see what was going on and stuff it was just
Starting point is 00:01:50 completely frozen at that point there's an error code on my motherboard so i looked it up and it's an error code that suggests there's no boot device available or can find a boot device yeah so i was like shit so i unhooked uh my my the the drive that the computer boots onto and I was able to get into the BIOS and stuff. So this SSD just completely, completely failed and was making it hard for me to get to my computer. So I had to buy a new one and I had to get a USB stick with a Windows install thing on it.
Starting point is 00:02:21 So I'm on fucking stupid ass Windows 11 now. Oh, man. I know I'm missing 10 big ass Windows 11 now. Oh man. I know. I'm missing ten big time, but... What is it like, 11? How different is it? It's just like, fluffy looking, you know? It's all like, uh, I dunno, it kinda looks like you're on a tablet a bit, but it's, you
Starting point is 00:02:37 know, like the taskbar's all weird and the sounds are all bloopy and different. There's not so many dings now, it's more like bloops, bloops and bloops, you know? So needless to say, I'm fucking pissed off. People think we're living in the future, but this is exactly what happened when it went from Windows, whatever the fuck, to Windows the fuck. Well, you know, we wouldn't upgrade from 95 for ages. You know, because 2000 was garbage or whatever.
Starting point is 00:03:04 Okay, let's look at what was on offer after 95. Windows know, it was 2000. It was garbage or whatever. Okay, let's look at what was on offer after 95. Windows 98, which was shitty. And then Windows ME, which was fucking shitty. What about XP? As well. XP was great. XP was fine, but it came after all those. Did it?
Starting point is 00:03:18 I thought XP was in the 90s. Very much some skippable Windows flavors. XP was fine. My dad still uses XP. I think a lot of people do. I think XP is... The solid Windows. Pretty sure it's used by quite a few banks and stuff still too, like it is a pretty solid
Starting point is 00:03:36 version of Windows. It's just a dependable boy. It's a dependable boy. That's right. I don't wanna upgrade either. No. I'm just not ready. No.
Starting point is 00:03:44 I'm not ready to experience the power of Windows 11. No. Whatever the fuck. And all the blooping. Just bloops. Just like really weird bloop bloop bloop bloop bloop. Oh god. So yeah, so there we go.
Starting point is 00:03:57 It's back up and running, but I've had to reinstall Audacity and some other tools and I had to get my stream set up going again and everything. I'm there with it. It's fine. I've been, I've been back online better than ever. I want to say, I don't want to jinx it, but I haven't had any, any weird crashes or anything. So I guess, I guess a lot of my problems were that drive was just in the midst of failing over kind of a period of a month or so, and then just finally gave up its fight. But I, I had to go to town and like talk to somebody and it was awful.
Starting point is 00:04:27 You know, I had to buy a thing and it's kind of nice going into a computer store and just saying like exactly what's happened and exactly what you need. Like there wasn't any sort of like, you know, beating around the bush with it. You know, there was there's a woman in there behind me who's bringing in a laptop from a deceased relative, and she's like, Oh, you know, beating around the bush with it, you know, right. There was, there's a woman in there behind me who's bringing in a laptop from a deceased relative and she's like, I need to get this computer up and running again and, uh, I need you to wipe it and make it functional again. I think it's a new computer. I have another computer at home and I was like, Oh man, she's going to be here
Starting point is 00:05:03 all day, like You cannot do this. You have to come in here and be like, yeah, my 5392-1 failed, and I'm probably gonna need to recombobulate the dilithium crystal activator, and you know what to do, Sam, just get me the stuff and I'll be on my way. I was quick, I was in there like five seconds. BAM. Here's the problem, here's how I want it fixed. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So... So you in there like five seconds. Bam! Here's the problem, here's how I want it fixed. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:05:25 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So... So you bought a one terabyte SSD and a Windows boot drive. I did. How'd you know it was one terabyte? The outside can freeze your brain. Oh, right, okay, yeah. What am I thinking about right now?
Starting point is 00:05:36 Uh... Keira Knightley. Yes! In the movie... With a strap on! ...of the hull. Really fucking me, it's nice, anyway. So yeah, so that's my that's my that's my big, you know, you got loose news. I occasionally have some news of my own.
Starting point is 00:05:53 Sips quips. Sips quips. There you go. That's my that's my really uninteresting story of probably the next like month or so. Dang. Until something else happens. Two two articles of interest to open with today. Number one, Mrs. F has gone to Japan for two weeks with work. She just had-
Starting point is 00:06:12 What the heck? We found out, let me think, what is it today, Thursday? So I think Monday she came over, she said, I might need to go to Japan on Wednesday. Like morning. Earliest flight. And I was like, damn. So she basically packed and then she was gone. So that's it, she's gone for two weeks. Gosh. Lucky, lucky her.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Yeah. A few other of my friends are in Japan right now. Dan, Sophie, Marty came there, they're in Japan. Are you implying that Mrs. F should meet up with them? No, maybe they're having an affair. Oh, she's having an affair with RT. With Hiro... Mayamoto! With Shigeru, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:46 She's got to see the Switch 2 launch. I'm not being funny, but whatever. She's trying to bargain them down from those high ass prices. Everybody's so pissed off. Like, 499 bucks for a Switch. Interestingly, they... It's like 90 bucks for Mario Kart, or something insane. Yeah, well, it's gonna be even more though, because I think ahead of all this tariff stuff,
Starting point is 00:07:10 they thought, alright, we're just gonna get these all manufactured in Vietnam. And they announced the liberation day tariffs yesterday, and I think Vietnam's got like a 50% tariff or something on it. So I think those switches are going to cost. It's because yeah, because apparently Trump thinks that that's going to cost a lot of money, but it's not going to cost us a penny. These other countries are going to pay it off. It's going to be a little bit of short term pain. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:36 But in the long term, we're going to make America wealthy again. God, it's just whatever. I don't even want to think about it. We don't need their switch. We're going to make our own Switch we got the original switch Thomas Edison when he built the side switch He said we don't need those switches from China Save some winning for everyone else like they're just hogging up all the winning and we need a little tiny bit of winning ourselves But we can't even find any.
Starting point is 00:08:06 We're scrounging around for crumbs here. It sucks. I know. It's the charge and 50% on all winning as well. They get a 50% tariff on winning. Oh my God. They're going to be so wealthy. It's true.
Starting point is 00:08:17 They do, don't they? Yeah. By the way, here's my second thing that I thought. I thought this was really funny. Oh shit. I didn't take my meds today. Hold on. No, me neither. A bit edgy. Hold on. I thought I was a bit edgy.
Starting point is 00:08:25 I'm off on one. I'm fucking crazy. I'm going crazy. You are terrible. You need one of them old... I have it! It hasn't gone off yet. Alright?
Starting point is 00:08:33 Have you got those day of the week container things with all your pills in? Yes, that's what he needs. No, I have an alarm on my phone that says, take your pill, you idiot. Oh, that's not very helpful. I, I have an alarm on my phone that says take your pill you idiot. That's not very helpful. I ignore those. Take your pills. All alarms. So, Stuart Pearce.
Starting point is 00:08:51 One time, England captain left back. He played left back. Not left back in the dressing room. Do you know who you're talking to? Yeah, I just want to tell you that this is why this is important, okay. He's famously a hard man. His nickname was Psych. Right. He was, he was manager of, I think, was he manager of forest or man city briefly, he was like an
Starting point is 00:09:12 emergency caretaker manager. And he picked too many players on his team sheet. He had 11 outfield players. He forgot about the goalie and his wife had to point out to him, Shewett, what about the goalie? He was like, Oh my God, I've picked, I've picked 11 players. I picked a goalie. You know, he's not the brightest lab. He's on a flight from Vegas to London and he fell ill. All right. Now I found this very interesting because they're describing this. This is on the ESPN website. It says here that medical passengers on the plane, it was diverted to St. John's, Canada. He was hospitalized and in an interview with the Times, he detailed the incident. Pierce said his heart was stopped before being restarted. My heart was racing a little bit. The
Starting point is 00:09:50 medical staff on the plane were magnificent and they made the decision after three hours to drop me off in St. John's in Newfoundland. The hospital staff there basically stopped my heart and restarted it again to put it back into a normal rhythm. Now that right there is an SVT attack and what he's talking about basically stopped my heart restarted again, is the adenosine injection. So Stuart Pierce and me have something in common. Right. Really? Yeah. I read it. He's describing it as basically stopped my heart, but I know what he means. And he said my heart is racing a little bit. So Stuart Pierce, that's what it is. It's SVT.
Starting point is 00:10:22 You could have got in there like onto the thread and been like, I know a thing or two about this. I'm an expert. Hold it right there, Mr. Pierce. I'm an expert on this. Art matters. I know, but all this stuff. Yeah, like, I'd like to have been on that flight. Yes.
Starting point is 00:10:38 My art's going to clap us here, babe. I don't know what's happening. Hold on, Mr. Pierce. I'm not a doctor, but I do have experience in this field. Listen Mr. Pierce, I understand that you've not put a goalie on your starting line-up. That's probably what's upset you. You know subconsciously that your team was lacking a goalie and your body's trying to warn you.
Starting point is 00:11:01 You know what, Lewis, imagine that you were made England manager, right? Something terrible had happened, a mistake was made, there's a big game coming up. It's like a designated survivor situation. Everyone else has been killed. The least likely person to be England manager, they're like him. So you're the England manager. What would you do? You go into the room, right?
Starting point is 00:11:24 You're the new manager, you go into the dressing room, you go into the dressing room and there's all the players. The dressing room? I don't want to go in there, it's got sweaty naked men in there. I don't want to see them. You're a football manager now, you have to be. No, no, no. That's what the coach does. The manager. No, yes, that is the manager. That is the manager. The manager and the coach are the same thing. No, it's the same thing. Well, I think we need to draw a line there. I don't want to be going in the dressing room as the manager. You could have a meeting room and the players will the same thing. No, it's the same thing. I think we need to draw a line there. I don't want to be going in the dressing room as a
Starting point is 00:11:45 matter of fact. You can have a meeting room and the players will talk to you there. Okay. Okay. We'll have a separate meeting room. You want to have a meeting room that's got a trap door and you've got a button on your desk. You can tell everybody it's a coat button but actually it's a trap door button. It's like a chill meeting room with a dart board and like a pool table and a bar. Right? All right. So you're in there. The the entire team is in there waiting for you. Very famous footballers.
Starting point is 00:12:08 They played. Get yourself to drink that's your open bar. That's your service. Self grab yourself a drink lads. Let's get them all nicely lubricate for the bad news that's coming. So they get a drink in. You come what's your opening here? Listen up lads.
Starting point is 00:12:24 This you have to yell louder because opening here? Listen up, lads. This country. You have to yell louder, because when they're coming in, nobody comes into a dressing room quietly or into a meeting room, they're coming in and they're like, whey, slapping each other's tushies and stuff. Yeah, that's the kind of energy we need. Have a little listen. Have a little listen to the words of a man older and perhaps a little wiser than yourselves. First off, I want to say it's been a tough old time for Britannia lately.
Starting point is 00:12:55 We're in a bad state and the people are sad. We've had too many years of Tories running things and everything's gutted. Everything's run down. There's potholes in the roads. You have to wait two years before you can get a GP's appointment. These guys are listening to this. Like they don't want to hear about this. The people of Britain need a win. All right. And you are the only thing standing between total collapse of this country.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Right. Now you've got their attention. You know, if you don't win, if you don't win out there, people, there will be blood in the streets. They will. And that will blood will be on your hands. Well, now they're really listening. I'm going to use a lot of verb. Yeah, they understand this. I love the way this this this meet the team speech that you've done.
Starting point is 00:13:44 Kind of sounds like... Turn into his bid to run for... The Enoch Powell rivers of blood speech. Exactly. Yeah. Well, you know, they are the heart and soul... Listen, you are the heart and soul of England. And Britain.
Starting point is 00:13:59 And the United Kingdom. You're the salt of the earth. No, just England. Just England. You're the moon and the earth. Just England. Just England. You're the moon in the stars. Just England. And as a result, it's a heavy weight on your shoulders, lads, to carry. So I want you to go out there and just have the back of your mind.
Starting point is 00:14:16 If we lose today, I might as well have been shooting to death a toddler in the streets of Nottingham. Now you've really got their attention and they're mad. They are frothing. They're furious. Good. Channel that rage. That's what I want from you. Right. You just want that.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Get out there. The angriest two. Get out there and be Iceland. Oh my God. Be Iceland. Oh man. That went in directions I had no idea it would go. It's some motivational speeches. That's one of them.
Starting point is 00:14:49 That is one of them. You did one. You've done one of them. Lewis, I know you're going to do Lose News, but have you done anything at all interesting this week? In relation to how interesting mine and Flax's weeks have been. He's home alone, like Kevin McAllister, and I've had computer woes. What do you got, baby?
Starting point is 00:15:09 I watched Invincible. I watched all of that, which was quite good. Wait, when you say you watched all of Invincible, which series? I watched it back from the start, because I'd forgotten most of it. Oh wow. So what is that? That's three seasons. Yeah. But that's a lot of hours. I got a lot of problems with it. He's got a lot of free time. He's got a lot of free time.
Starting point is 00:15:26 He's got a lot of free time. It's not great. It's not great, but it's fine. It's okay. What's it about? Yeah. It's about a young kid who develops superpowers. His father is Omni-Man, who is essentially the world's strongest superhero, so think
Starting point is 00:15:41 like Superman. Basically Superman. And he is, it turns out, not a particularly nice guy. That's the whole setup. ALICE It's one of these adult superheroes, because it's very, very gory. Very, very, very gory in places. But then also, it really takes a hard turn into very silly and clowny a lot, right? Like, it'll be super... There'll be some absolutely ludicrous costumed hero doing kind of dumb stuff. And then, I'm going to destroy the Washington Monument!
Starting point is 00:16:14 And I guess that's there for some comic relief, but it is... Sometimes it's very misjudged. And also, I have a big problem with it. In terms of... I don't want to talk about it too much. I just think that the... I have a problem with the way that these superheroes powers are sometimes used. So like this is a superhero called Atom Eve. Okay. And she has the power to manipulate matter. Right. She can just change reality. Basically. She can just be like this Apple is now made of gold. You know, she can like just make like a, make air turn into steel. It's ridiculous. But the thing is, she's got this incredibly creative, really interesting superpower that could be used in all sorts of different ways to fight bad guys. But as in most of these shows, all she does is make squares of pink in the air that people can just punch
Starting point is 00:17:10 through easily. And she's like, that's it. That's basically her power. And it's kind of frustrating because it's kind of such a waste of a really cool ability. And I feel like that's the same thing for these superhero powers in general. I guess it's because they want loads. They just want loads of superheroes. But every single one is like a one trick pony. They do one... If they're a hero, they do one stupid thing.
Starting point is 00:17:35 They don't... It's just a shame. I constantly think, oh, it'd be so much cooler if it was done like this. I mean, when are we just going to have a fucking show where it's a bunch of wizards doing cool shit? Because there's so many spells that are cool. And in Harry Potter it's wank because it's a kids show. I'm just saying I want to see a gory wizard versus wizard shit. You're absolutely right on the Harry Potter combat system, which is basically like
Starting point is 00:18:00 sets like in the movies. It's basically I do a little sparky sword fight with you, with my wand. At least in the books, mostly they're doing, like, just expelliarmus. That's pretty much the main spell that anyone uses. But, I don't know, that also felt bad to me. Like, there is, you're right, so much cool things that can be done. Like, did you see the Dungeons and Dragons movie? The recent one? Yeah, I really enjoyed it. I haven't really enjoyed it. I thought it was really fun. It was really fun. So there's a wizard fight at the end of that. A proper wizard fight.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Where there's like, they're casting recognisable D&D spells. Ones that, you know, like, this would be the correct spell, or this is a good spell to cast in this instance. And it was like, it made it so much more exciting than just zap, zap. Because like you said, you've got this chance to do something cool, where instead of just a gunfight, it's people creating different digbies into posing hands and whatever, and going at each other with cool spells and using them in interesting ways. But instead they're just like, oh, they just go pow, but with a wand. You're right, there's a lack of inventive. I think the issue I have is that when you have an animation, you can do anything. And yet they choose to do the most boring shit you've ever seen. Which is flying about with
Starting point is 00:19:12 pink fucking lightning bolts and stuff. It's like, give me a break. You're supposed to... I guess it's fine. Anyway, Invincible's great. And Pantheon, by the way, I watched on... It's not great. That's the point. It's okay. You literally said you had problems with it. It's watchable. Yeah, it's fine. And anyway, invincible is great. And I'm passing on by the way. That's the point. It's okay. You literally said you had problems with it. It's watchable. Yeah, it's fine. I think my other problem with these shows is so little happens. Oh my God. How many episodes of him and his talking to a girl about their relationship problems. It's like, can you fucking just dump all this shit? Like it's such obvious filler.
Starting point is 00:19:42 It's the same conversation every time. Mark, I know you've got a responsibility, but I thought we'd spend some time together. I'm trying, it's really hard, okay? And then the whole of Season 3 is him and his little brother, of him and the mum having to rein in the little brother who thinks he's ready. He's not ready. Fuck off! You've done that for five fucking episodes! Wait, what show is this? Pantheon.
Starting point is 00:20:03 No spoilers, but we'll be careful. Invincible. Invincible. What's invincible about? It sounds like it's about a horse. Were you not listening to the last 10 minutes? Well, I heard you guys talking about, like, a guy talking to a girl and stuff like that, but I don't know what the show is actually about. A superhero. I told you. Oh, it was the say one. I thought you were talking about a new one. Sorry, I got lost. Well, this other one, Pantheon, is basically about a near future world where a billionaire has invented a way to upload your brain.
Starting point is 00:20:37 Wait, Pantheon, I thought that was that game that went really badly. There was a game called Pantheon that went, I think, badly. I'm not sure, but... Or what's that called, Concord badly, I'm not sure. Or was that called Concord? Concord went really bad. Yeah. I feel like, do you remember Chaos on Netflix? It was like the Jeff Goldblum gods thing.
Starting point is 00:20:52 No, I didn't see that. I feel like that wanted to be called Pantheon, but it ended up being called something different. I've been watching White Lotus Season 2. I'm almost done. I think I'm on the last episode. So you're near the end of Season 2. So you've, have you, no spoilers again, but who's your favorite character? Well, in season two.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Yeah. I don't know. I don't really like any of the characters in both seasons. They're all pretty hateful people, no? I can't think of one that I actually kind of like. But Jennifer Coolidge. Jennifer Coolidge is great. Jennifer Coolidge is great in it, yeah. She is really good.
Starting point is 00:21:28 And her character is frustrating, but she plays it so well. Like she's such a good job there. Such a breath of fresh air, honestly. The bit that we just saw was the big party at the mansion. Okay. With some full frontal dong shots. An Italian man's penis is on display. Good.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Yeah, that sounds right. Oh, great show. Anyway, what else have I done? I don't think I can be any clearer. Let me be clear. There's an Italian man's penis. Minecraft movie star Jason Momoa doesn't allow his kids to play Minecraft. Why not?
Starting point is 00:22:07 Because he wants them to use their creativity in a different way. Fuck off. How about that? So we do other things. Maybe they can think up some clever retorts to period flaxes. Fuck off using their creativity. Jason Momoa says, phones are new to the world. Everyone was doing just fine before phones.
Starting point is 00:22:27 We watch movies together. And that's beautiful. We watch my movies together. We watch me, my children watch me and worship me on the television. No, no, no. Lewis is adding all those extra bits in. Could you imagine? That would be crazy.
Starting point is 00:22:41 He says, that's what he means in his mind though. In his brain, that's what he's saying. Yeah, of course. My mother, when I was growing up, wouldn't let me play video games. She was like, get outside, climb a tree, go skateboard. Yeah. I wasn't allowed to have video games. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:56 And look how you turned out. Maybe she should have just let you play some video games. If you don't play video games, you become a movie star. That's what he's saying. This is the classic Luddite, we didn't used to have those and we were fine. But you know, we also didn't used to have vaccines. He's an anti-vaxxer, I'm calling it, Jason Momoa. He's on that fucking train.
Starting point is 00:23:18 He's just come through Ludditeville and now he's on his way to anti-vaccine. Conspiracy theory lands. Arriving at the moon landing's wharf fake station. And Jetfuel cannot marry the steel babes. We're passing through the, do your research station where we'll be washed and hosed down and we're gonna head on the flattest part of the track, which is of course the flat earth zone. Joe Rogan is just boarding the train. I'm Joe Rogan if you need anything, just tweet at me.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Sorry, EZ at me. So basically, obviously Jack Black is the opposite as his kids. He's been streaming them live and making videos on YouTube, his kids, you know, playing and he's been in a bunch of video games. So I'm not even saying Momoa hasn't made you Momoa will do anything he gets paid for. He's always struck me as that kind of guy anyway. I like him generally, but I like him less after this. I think the thing is one, my first comment would be, how do you stop them? Right? Because do you, are you basically homeschooling your kids to stop them?
Starting point is 00:24:26 Because everyone they're at school with is going to have a mobile phone and stuff like this, right? So good luck stopping them accessing all this content anyway. Second thing, you're not really preparing someone for the modern world if you deny them access to the things that everyone else, you've done the experience that everyone else has had. All you're doing is you're making a weirdo. So maybe don't have the experience that everyone else has had. All you're doing is you're making a weirdo. So, maybe don't do that? I mean, celebrity kids are already
Starting point is 00:24:47 fucking weird enough without having some weird, like, fucking hermit upbringing. Give me a break. For me, this is the kind of shit, and I don't want to offend any parents in particular, okay? Because I understand everybody's... It's up to you. It's your choice. But, I think that there's a lot of people who decide that they are so unique and special that they're not going to do what everybody else is doing. For example, you get people, I certainly know people like this, whose birth plan, in other words, what the fuck they're going to do when the baby's being born, involves crystals and no drugs and this particular
Starting point is 00:25:22 song needs to be playing. It's all very sort of main character feeling, where everything has to be bent around this ridiculous set of demands. And I think Jason Momoa and people like that saying, oh, no, my children are different. It's like, no, no, they're not. We're all the fucking same. You're very famous. Your kids are just regular kids and you're fucking them over by saying,
Starting point is 00:25:42 no, no, we shall do more creative things with our time. We shall not be using computers. Just fuck off. Well, you know, let your kids do whatever all the other kids are doing. Otherwise what the fuck? What kind of childhood is that? Yeah, I don't know. Sometimes people say stuff, uh, you know, to sound a certain way or sound better, but in reality, they are not doing the things that they're saying that they're doing. Oh, that's true. You know, that's so he could just be some of this stuff.
Starting point is 00:26:08 I think you got to take with a pinch of salt because, you know, this is a pinch of salt or grain of salt. I say pinch. I say pinch. But I've heard it with a grain of salt as well. Take it with a grain of salt. Take it with a single grain. One grain is too small. I'm thinking is how are you going to get that one grain?
Starting point is 00:26:26 You might get an unlucky pinch and just pick up one grain as well though. That's true. Jennifer, Jennifer Coolidge is in the Minecraft movie. This is crazy connection. She was also Stifler's mom. Stifler's mom has got it going on. Yeah, she was. She is the OG MILF.
Starting point is 00:26:43 So she was a MILF in that fucking movie as well. She was American pie. Jennifer Coolidge. I want to see if you look at a picture of her from that movie. How old is she now compared to how old was she in American pie? She must have been like, what in her 25 years old, probably. What? No, she did look like a teenage boy's mom in American pie. Like she didn't look 25 years old. Older than she mum in American Pie, to be fair. She didn't look 25 years old. Older than she was in American Pie, sorry. That's what I meant.
Starting point is 00:27:10 It's like 25 year old movies. Yeah, sorry. But she must have been in her 30s at the time, because she does look now like she's probably in her 60s. You reckon Jennifer Coolidge? No offence Jennifer Coolidge, but yeah. I'm a huge fan, she's great. She's 61.
Starting point is 00:27:24 Yeah, I think that checks out. 63. I think that, Chan. She's great. She's 61. Yeah. I think that checks out. 63. I think that checks out. Oh, sorry. She's 63. Yeah. I'm reading an article that's two years old.
Starting point is 00:27:32 So yeah. Regarding dating, there is a dating app called Tinder, which you might have heard of. They recently released a thing called the Game Game, which basically allows you to practice your pick-up skills on an AI chatbot. So you can, basically you're given like, so it's like a whole thing first of all, I haven't used Tinder in years, but there's like a virtual deck of cards, apparently, with unique scenarios. So it's like, balance persistence with respecting conversational flow. These are the kind of advice. It's like, why are they teaching people to, you know, need to, you need to.
Starting point is 00:28:19 I want somebody to go on a Tinder date with somebody and, um, memorize a born on the 4th of July soundboard and only use quotes from born on the 4th of July on the date. So you can imagine sitting in a restaurant, somebody just going, who are, who are love it or leave it, who are, you know, like, uh, just, just constantly born on the 4th of July. Can I take your, maybe a scent of a woman actually. Yeah. It was love it or leave it was born on the 4th of July. Excuse me, sir, can I take your order? Maybe that's Scent of a Woman, actually. Yeah, I was going to say. Love it or Leave it. Love it or Leave it was Born on the Fourth of July. I think the Whoas might have been from Scent of a Woman.
Starting point is 00:28:51 The Whoas was 100% and that was Al Pacino. It was Al Pacino, you're right. Born on the Fourth of July was Tom Cruise. I just wanted to do a little trivia, you know, just a little sneaky trivia there for you. I loved it. I loved it. Born on the Fourth of July definitely had Love it or leave it in it though, right? Love it or leave it was a Tom Cruise line in Born on the 4th of July.
Starting point is 00:29:09 I'll find it. Born on the 4th of July. Love it or leave. Oh, it's come up. Here it is. Love it or get out. Oh, love it or get out. Right.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Sorry. I misquoted. Spreading misinformation. Sorry. Yeah. This stuff is like how to talk. It's like adapt your topics based on responses. Is this a dating advice?
Starting point is 00:29:29 Yeah. Build understanding through shared activities or humor. Well, we're all looking at pictures of Jennifer Coolidge a minute ago, right? Stay enthusiastic about shared interests. This is just good tips for general interactions with other humans. How are you meant to memorize these? If you're the kind of person who doesn't understand how to do a conversation, which is fair enough, there's plenty of people like that. Conversation is difficult.
Starting point is 00:29:55 It's a lot of the time it's not something that for some people is instinctive. It's actually very confusing. Fair enough. But I'm saying all of this advice is kind of pointless because you're going to be having to fucking practice so much for this to become second nature. And you're not really being yourself. If you are so incapable of having a conversation that you need to read things like listen to the things that other people say and respond to them. You're fucked. Like that's just it's too hard at that point to just try to have a regular conversation. I think you need to give advice to people about how to have conversations with people who clearly can't actually do it.
Starting point is 00:30:31 That would be more useful. So, but that would just help them in their everyday life generally and not just with dating, which would also be a good thing, right? So basically what you're saying is have some social abilities generally and apply those to dating. I don't think they're gonna. That's the thing. No, but you can't teach people. This is how I mean, for example, my eldest is is on the spectrum. Right. And I know a lot of other people who are especially in gaming and stuff like that. Right. You can't change them by
Starting point is 00:30:59 just practice. You can't be like, I don't know. This is how you do social interaction. No, but isn't it kind of like, like, it's not it's not practice, but it's almost like rehearsing. Like you're rehearsing like a front. It's not naturally. That's why it's like so exhausting for some people, right? Yeah. So they do something called masking. Yeah. And the most common form of that, especially amongst girls, autistic girls, which is why it's much harder to spot, is that they will just grab a person they like, like they'll make super friends with one person and do everything the way that person does it. So that person becomes your cheat sheet.
Starting point is 00:31:36 So you just copy them. And they dress like them, talk like them, act like them, and they literally become that person. And that's how they get through the day. I feel like you just described every young girl friendship ever, though. No, no, no. How most of them go? Or...
Starting point is 00:31:53 No, no, no. I also feel like you've just described role models. Yeah. No, so this is different. Teenagers. Okay. I'm talking about the fact that even at a fairly young age, masking is way more than just copying someone. I know it sounds silly, but it's because they have literally no idea how to deal with certain
Starting point is 00:32:14 social situations. Right. So they're just, they're masking it through taking the lead from someone else who they think can do all this stuff. Yeah. Copying them, following them around and basically trying to be as close to them as possible. I understand that sounds like a role model situation, but this goes a bit further. This would more be like a superfan version. That's almost like a weird superfan.
Starting point is 00:32:34 Yeah. Oh, I see. Do you know what I mean? It's not just like, wow, that's so inspirational. It's more like, oh, you did that? I'll do that. You know, it's hard to describe. I do the opposite of that. I try to remove myself from and distance myself from just about everybody. All the time. That's your rebellious nature though, isn't it? You want to rebel. You're like a OG Nirvana grunge. You're like, you ain't taking anything that the man wants you to have. Yeah, no, I am firmly not taking anything the man wants to prescribe to me.
Starting point is 00:33:09 Get rid of your mobile phone. Big time rebel. Yeah, I ran over my phone with my car a couple times. There you go. I ran over my phone with my Ferrari a few times just to really stick it to the man. By the way, I apologize for anyone that knows what I'm talking about and found my description of it completely wrong. I tried my best. Jason Vale I think I know what you're talking about. I don't want to come across as like, you know, making fun of it or anything.
Starting point is 00:33:34 Jason Vale It's complicated. What you're talking about is a situation that many people struggle with because, you know, there isn't a class on social interaction. And if there were, it would encourage a lot of people to struggle to be authentic about who they are. If your brain is constantly on edge, if you're in a chill conversation with your friends, the last thing you want to be doing is having your mind racing at a hundred miles per hour. Like being anxious about everything you're saying and how it's going down and whether you're saying the right thing and what they're saying and analysing it to fuck. You know, it's, it's, it's, it's not a way to exist, right? To have this fake persona. Because also in the back of your
Starting point is 00:34:15 mind, you're thinking, what if they catch me? What if they catch me saying all this fake stuff and am I, am I somehow scamming everyone, all of my friends, by having this fake personality? It's incredibly anxiety inducing to be like that. And I get, I absolutely get what you're saying about not being yourself. If you need these level of tips on how to talk to someone of the opposite sex, and it's almost always teaching blokes how to talk to women, right? You're going to have to train yourself to be, like you said, another person. It can't last. Mason- And I think that is a thing you can do though. You can take steps to list, like,
Starting point is 00:34:57 you know, consider... Little bits of advice can be helpful, right? We're not saying none of this is useless. Jason- I just think the key is they need to demystify the idea of speaking to women in their minds. They need to stop it being this big, I just can't talk to women. Because first of all... Jason Vale That's not somebody never speaking to a woman and then looking to speak to a woman. These are people that have tried and tried and tried on these dating sites and not had any luck though, right?
Starting point is 00:35:25 I'm not even talking about the dating sites, man. This is the point that we're getting to. Because the dating sites will only get you so far, because then when you meet up, what, you're going to have like little notes written on your hand? You look nice. I think also the idea is that it's some sort of interview or test, which in a sense it is, but interview or test, which in a sense it is, but in another sense it isn't, right? Because the end goal here is to, you know, have sex with someone. It does feel like there's already some sort of slightly sinister undercurrent to what you're trying to do here.
Starting point is 00:36:00 You think sex is kind of sinister? What kind of sex are you having? Well, I think it is kind of sinister? What kind of sex are you having? Well, I think it is kind of sex. The most dangerous game, sex with Louis Friendly. I think you can't, if you start thinking about it too much, you know, it becomes a problem. I think the secret is to just, I think the secret is to just try and be yourself. And I hate to say it, because some people's selves are awful. I would say be yourself, but just try to naturally gel with somebody. And if you don't, then try somebody else.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Don't go into it feeling like you have to cheat. Just be like, just be yourself. And if that's not enough, then hopefully there's someone else. If it's not, you'll be alone forever. That's all it is. Talk about the apprentice and how you had an SSD fail. Yeah. And if they, if they look at you over their nose, find someone else, do you
Starting point is 00:36:55 mean complain at length about Elon Musk? That's a good one as well. People love to hear that. Complain about how people don't understand what a genius he is. Just anything. Just, just bring up the topic and just, just roll with it. See how it goes, you know? You'll find your people. Elon Musk, your thoughts? I'll really stop you right there. He's a goddamn genius.
Starting point is 00:37:18 Oh man. So, the ghost of Tsushima, so you know, the Assassin's Creed Shadows came out. And it's been getting decent reviews. Yeah, I heard it's pretty good. It had a lot of people playing it at least. For a Ubisoft game, generally. Don't see that many people playing their games, I don't think. Or, I mean, they seem very surprised that there was like four million people playing it at one point.
Starting point is 00:37:44 Which is pretty good. There has been someone, apparently in the game, there has been some sort of, like, I don't know, some sort of, like, I don't know if there's a way to like deface the shrines in game or something, but certainly, some of these shrines that are in the game are also in real life. Some tourists or fans have been visiting these sites and potentially damaging them. Well, we did the same thing, if you remember, Lewis. Remember, we went to Paris, France.
Starting point is 00:38:12 We did a promotional thing and we went to some of the locations that feature in the game. We found those rusty bolt holes, if you remember. We did. And those were in the game too. A very famous French site. A famous French alleyway that had... I don't know if they were.
Starting point is 00:38:27 ... really rusty as bulldozes. We were like round the back of one of the... We got lost. We couldn't find the places basically. We couldn't find the places that they wanted us to show. We just went to random places. They were interesting places though. Oh boy, oh boy. We really had the giggles that night. We did.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Yeah, it was fun. It was like a warm night in Paris. We had these stupid videos for Ubisoft. And I remember that very fondly. Anyway, don't cause any grave and unforgivable acts of disrespect towards real life shrines because you saw something in the game. So yeah, like places in Japan are now banning tourists. It's about time. If you're a fucking some TikTok star, if you're Logan Paul or someone who's thinking
Starting point is 00:39:21 you might want to go and slap a Japanese person in the face with a fish. Don't do that. No. Just don't, don't do that. Man. Okay. I can't think of that Monty Python bit where they're doing the fish slapping dance on the, you ever seen that one?
Starting point is 00:39:37 Where they, where they're doing the- Don't, don't do that. Okay. Yeah. Don't do that. Don't push people into a canal in neither. No, don't do any canal. No, don't do that.
Starting point is 00:39:45 Yeah. Do you know what? I was trying to watch, I've been watching Kitchen Nightmares a lot. I was trying to find a new show. Yeah. What about the F word? No, so I wanted to try and move away from, from Gordo and reality TV for a bit. Cause I tried Hell's Kitchen and I found it so horrible.
Starting point is 00:40:04 Right. It's so uncomfortable that I just Hell's Kitchen and I found it so horrible. Right. And so uncomfortable that I just couldn't watch it. He was just mean. He's at least trying to help them, I feel, in Kitchen Nightmares. Even if it is done for the sake of television and all very staged and everything. Yeah. Hell's Kitchen is just like, come here, you fucking idiot. It's like, Jesus Christ, Gordon, can we, you know, it's like, he's like raw all the time and just poking stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Throwing dishes on the floor and really getting in people's faces and the hatred on his face really angry. I said, I'm not enjoying this. This isn't fun. Right. So I tried to find something else. Is it too genuine? No, it's just I don't even think it's genuine.
Starting point is 00:40:36 It's just fucking horrible. And it's all like these American contestants are all trying to backstab each other. And you get all these talking heads where they're like, he's a goddamn idiot, I fucking hate Raj, she's a moron. And then they'll have an argument backstage, then they come out on the set and they have an argument there, they throw and stuff, it's just awful. And they're always fucking with them. They're always fucking with them. Like, all right, here, come here, dickhead, here's the new test, you've got to do something completely ridiculous whilst also doing the service. Or, you know, here, clean all these squid or whatever. I just thought this is just uncomfortable. So I tried watching something else.
Starting point is 00:41:09 What about MasterChef? No. What about James Gunn's Saturday Kitchen or whatever his name was? No, no, no. We've gone for Walker Texas Ranger. Right. Okay. So you're just does he cook or you're not? No, I mean, TJ Hooker was the first show that I was watching on stream with people and we Texas Ranger. Right. Okay, so you're just... Does he cook or you're not... No. You don't care. TJ Hooker was the first show that I was watching on stream with people, and that was fun.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Oh, I see you watching it on stream! Yeah, yeah. Man, you should watch all of Father Ted on stream. I think your audience would love that. No, no, because that's good. Yeah. Right, that's good. Right.
Starting point is 00:41:43 We only watch abandoned shit. Oh, right. Stuff that. Right. Because I mean, no one's watched some old episodes of Springer or something. Then I mean, that would be that's actually a good idea. Yeah. There's a lot of going to be able to find them. You got to be able to watch some old either way. Dr. Phil's or something. That'd be good, too. Oh, yeah. Dr. Phil, that would be good.
Starting point is 00:41:59 So we watched Walker, Texas Ranger made it to episode three. Had to abandon it as a as as a, as a show. It was so bad. It was unwatchably bad. Right. That's the doll. It's Chuck Norris. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Yes, it is. It's so bad. I cannot believe they made nine seasons. What about MacGyver? You could watch MacGyver. That'd be fun. So can't find it. Also, I think probably a bit too good compared to some of the shit. I mean,
Starting point is 00:42:28 the fucking TJ Hooker was such a bad show, but it made Walker Texas Ranger made fucking TJ Hooker look like a masterpiece. It's so bad. And it's casually racist quite often in a way that TV was so bad back then for sort of sound, depending on the race of the person on screen, but add a little sort of sting, a little musical sting. So when an Asian person comes on screen, a gong sound. It'll go, diddy diddy diddy. It's like, unbelievable. That's unreal. Yeah. And like he has an uncle who's a native American, he's like Cherokee. Every time he a Native American, who's like Cherokee. Every time he comes on screen, it's like pan pipes.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Imagine that. Imagine you're doing a stream with like, with people and every time somebody joined the stream you would play like a little tune based on their ethnicity or whatever. You'd be dead. You'd be gone. You would be off of the, you wouldn be allowed to stream it at all anymore. It would be maybe you'd be on kick. Yeah, maybe straight to kick.
Starting point is 00:43:31 Straight to kick. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, but seriously, watching that is just like, God, really? And it's in the South. So, of course, anyone, you know, there's all there. You city folk don't understand how things are down here. So every time one of those guys came on, did they do like a like a banjo song and then you know something like that? Or no, it was just normal.
Starting point is 00:43:51 Not unless they are specifically being presented as as, oh, this guy's real country. This guy is like, yeah, he's loco. Yeah. No, they just get sort of cool cowboy music and stuff. Oh, cool. Yeah. It's very Texas. Everybody really is wearing those big hats and they all have their shirt tucked into their trousers. Nice. I really tucked in. Yeah. There's got to be some reason for that, right?
Starting point is 00:44:13 They the the shirt tucked into trousers like I look smarter, doesn't it? I mean, it's more. Yeah. I mean, all right. So get a shirt and just leave it hanging out. Yeah. Tell me that that looks smarter than talking. Well, a T-shirt. Yeah, I would just leave it hanging out. Yeah. Tell me that that looks smarter than talking. Well, a t-shirt. Yeah. I would have leave it hanging out.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Right, right, right. But they have like lumberjack shirts. Oh, like plaid shirts and stuff. Look, I don't, they got those, dude, they got those shirts with like the, the weird metal thing with the strings hanging off it, like at the neck. The Bolo tie. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:39 It's a Bolo tie. A Bolo tie. Yeah. Yeah. Um, so I feel like, feel like you need something smarter. No, I think I feel like it is smarter having the it tucked in, but it also looks wank. It does. I'm not saying it's good. I'm just saying it looks smarter.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Well, I think that whole thing is 90s, 90s men's fashion, like depending where you were, I guess if you're in Texas, it's always been like, you know, cowboy hats and stuff like that. Yeah. Yeah. But if you're in Texas, it's always been like, you know, cowboy hats and stuff like that. Yeah. But if you're from like, if you're from like upper state New York, it was just chinos and like those weird, you always saw people that worked in tech wear them, like the polo shirts, you know, that had like the patterns, they look like golfing shirts and they were always tucked in as well. Tony soprano kind of rocked the look very well, you know,
Starting point is 00:45:24 I also feel like that that shirt that's got like a zip that brings it down to just above the sternum. I don't know what it's for. It's like a zip polo shirt. I fucking hate them. He'd have like a full suit but without a tie or he'd have those fucking chinos and those fucking polo shirts all the time. But that was like a big fashion for men in the 90s. And probably even now, sometimes you still see it. Like, if you're at a hotel, an international hotel, and you see... it's mostly Americans that dress like that. ALICE It says country club.
Starting point is 00:45:53 ALICE Yeah, it does say country club. You're right. Yeah. It's crazy, isn't it? JUSTIN They rebooted Walker Texas Ranger... ALICE No way. JUSTIN With Jared Padalecki. ALICE Who? JUSTIN Who? JUSTIN Who's from Supernatural. He's one of the brothers in Supernatural. Sam Winchester. You ever seen it?cki. Who? Who? Who's from Supernatural. He's one of the brothers in Supernatural.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Sam Winchester. You ever seen it? No. Great show. I actually have no idea what you're talking about right now. Supernatural, where they have to get a shotgun out of the boot of their car and fill it with salt and shoot ghosts for like 13 seasons. 15 seasons.
Starting point is 00:46:18 15 seasons? I've never even heard of it. Supernatural, 15 seasons. Oh, it's great. Walker, Texas Ranger, the reboot. It's just called Walker. Four seasons, plus a prequel season. Is Chuck Norris in the reboot?
Starting point is 00:46:29 69 episodes. No, he's not even considered, I don't think. He doesn't even guest star. Really? Yeah. He's not involved. Terrible reviews. It's rubbish.
Starting point is 00:46:39 Yeah, I bet it's fucking awful. Jared Padalecki. It's 69 episodes over like four years. That must have been exhausting. Ugh, what a lad. Padalecki, it's 69 episodes over like four years. That must have been exhausting. Oh, what a lad. Padalecki. I'm always impressed by these shows that have like fucking 25 episodes in a season and each episode is like an hour long or something. It's insane. That's wild. How do they produce that much crap? I don't, it's just incredible.
Starting point is 00:47:01 This is the modern day time TV version of that. You're talking about watching TJ Hooker. That's what my nan was watching in the afternoon when she, you know, she was in the 90s. Have they been doing it in Matlock? This is not... Matlock! I think they have! Matlock! I saw, I saw, like, uh...
Starting point is 00:47:16 Yeah, 2024, Matlock. Yes! I think it's a woman. Oh my god. Yes, a woman? I think it is! It's Kathy Bates, yeah, it's Kathy Bates. Agenda flipped lead character played by Kathy Bates.
Starting point is 00:47:27 Oh my god. Yeah, I saw an icon for it. It's got to have DEI Matlock! That's not Matlock. Matlock's gone DEI! Yeah, it's gone woke as hell. You can't even enjoy Matlock anymore. Unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:47:37 They saw 24 user reviews, or critic reviews It's got a hundred percent approval rating. Wow. And it is funny how people like Kathy Bates can just dig out a bad show. She's a great actor. She's a really fantastic actor. Yeah. Well, there you go. That sounds like I want to watch.
Starting point is 00:47:58 Maybe I'll watch a procedural crime drama. So yeah, I was surprised to find out that Matlock was rebooted, but apparently maybe it's good according to Lewis who just read a review about it. Kathy Banks? I watched Conclave this week. Oh, what a movie. Which I thought was a brilliant movie. It's called Conclave.
Starting point is 00:48:20 It's about the new Pope being chosen. And I know there's been a string of these. I saw the two popes. I saw something else that was going on in the Catholic, with the Popes. So part of me was like, ugh, I need to watch this one. But, um... Pope's Gone Wild, Spring Break edition. I thought it was excellent.
Starting point is 00:48:37 He read the Bible 50 times. He's taken off his hassock. It wasn't like overly dramatic or anything. Like it wasn't overly silly. It was just a good little... Great performance as well. A good little bit of exciting drama. Excellent performances. Honestly.
Starting point is 00:48:56 Yeah. Really, really good. Ralph, Ralph Fiennes. Ralph Lauren. Yeah, Ralph Fiennes. Rafe, Rafe? It is Rafe Fiennes, but I don't know how he convinced everyone it's Rafe. It's Ralph. It's clearly Ralph. How has he done that?
Starting point is 00:49:09 It annoys me every time. Maybe it's like a regional accent thing. No, Rafe. Ralph. Ralph. It sounds like Rafe. Ralphie Ralph. Maybe not.
Starting point is 00:49:21 And I know all the others are great as well. John Lith goes in it. He's great. He's fantastic. Yeah. Remember when he was the Trinity Killer are great as well. John Lith goes in it. He's great. Oh, he's fantastic. Yeah. Remember when he was the Trinity Killer in Dexter? Oh, shut up, cunt. It's great.
Starting point is 00:49:30 One of the best lines. Shut up, cunt. Shut up, cunt. He does play an excellent bad guy. Honestly, like such a good bad guy. Alright, name another film where he was a bad guy. I watched it the other week. Shrek, the second Shrek or is it the third Shrek when he's Mr. Lord Farquaad. Alright, but he's on camera in this one.
Starting point is 00:49:55 Oh, Third Rock from the Sun? Nope. He was just the dad. Some dads are villains, so. That's true, but I don't believe he was just the dad. Some, some dads are villains. So that's why I don't believe he was. Yeah. I don't, I don't know. I can't name any, but it is a, a film starring, in addition, the guy that you may know is Sylvester Stallone.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Do you know him as something else other than Sylvester Stallone? Yes. What do you know? Sly. Right. You're on that basis with him. You're on personal. I call him daddy, personally.
Starting point is 00:50:33 He's a fucking bellend is what I call him. John Lithgow on camera in a Stallone movie and Lithgow plays the villain. Hey, they're doing a Once Upon a Time in Hollywood 2 straight to Netflix written by Tarantino but not directed by. For anyone wondering it was Cliffhanger. Cliffhanger. Cliffhanger.
Starting point is 00:50:50 Really? Oh my god I forgot that that movie even existed. Yeah. It's actually not bad. He's the bad guy in Cliffhanger? Yeah. Oh my god. That's the movie I lost my virginity to.
Starting point is 00:51:00 No way. Cliffhanger. Oh my god. Well you were in the movie theatre when you lost your virginity. No, it was on telly. I wasn't 10 years old. It came out in 993. So you were what?
Starting point is 00:51:10 You were 11 then? You're two years younger than me. You lost your virginity when you were 11? No. That must have been awkward as hell. I'm just about to come! His voice breaks at that exact moment. No, no, it's been awkward as hell. I'm just about to call. His voice breaks at that exact moment.
Starting point is 00:51:34 And I didn't even have like a Tinder AI bots to train my game. Right. You didn't even get, you didn't even have your game trained at the, at the time. Jesus Christ. Sean, let's go. Too much information. Somehow he does a great job of being an evil villain and yet we sort of know that he's a good guy behind it. Isn't that funny how, like...
Starting point is 00:51:52 Yeah, well he's gotta have been some other baddies though too. Let's have a look. Well, I only really know him from Third Rock. Really? Yeah. I mean, I can't remember him being in anything. All these TV references. Super memorable before that.
Starting point is 00:52:10 So he was in Twilight Zone the movie, that was a good episode. He was the guy in that, he did the Something on the Wing. Wasn't he in Harry and the Hendersons? Yeah, of course, he was the Mr. Henderson. That's right. Okay, that's where I knew him from then. So he was in The World According to Garp, which is a film people probably haven't thought about in a very long time.
Starting point is 00:52:31 No. It's a Robin Williams film. He plays Roberta Muldoon. That's a good movie. It's a very of its time, but that's a good movie. Is he the bad guy? No, he's not the bad guy. That's what we're here to find out.
Starting point is 00:52:41 I don't even know if I've ever seen Footloose. 2010, the year we make contact, the sequel to 2001, he's in that, and he's very good in that. That's what we're here to find out. I don't even know if I've ever seen it before. I've never seen it. 2010, the year we make contact, the sequel to 2001, he's in that and he's very good in that. Harry and the Hensons, he's a good guy. LA Story, his scenes were deleted. Memphis Belle, he's just a guy in that. Ricochet, Raising Cane, the wrong man.
Starting point is 00:52:58 Pelican Brief, haven't seen it for a long time, can't remember. Pelican Brief was a Grisham book, wasn't it? Turned into a movie? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a... Wow. These are some old movies.
Starting point is 00:53:10 One of those legal ones. As I haven't heard those words. So old. He's in a film called Johnny Skidmarks. Nice. Rugrats in Paris, the movie Shrek. He was Lord Maximus Farquad, yes. Let me see.
Starting point is 00:53:23 Dreamgirls. God, he was in Dreamgirls? He was in Dreamgirls? What was that? Beyonce's movie? Or was that a different movie? No, I don't think so. Wasn't Dreamgirls the one with... Oh no, yeah, Dreamgirls is that one.
Starting point is 00:53:35 I was thinking of Showgirls. Showgirls is the one with Saved by the Bell. Jesse from Saved by the Bell is a stripper in it. Yeah. So he's an interstellar, of course. Daddy's Home 2. Good Lord. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:53:49 Perfect Three. The Tomorrow Man. Not a film I've seen. The Pet Sematary that they remade. Fuck me. The remake of Pet Sematary. Jeez. He was very good in Killers of the Flower Moon.
Starting point is 00:53:59 He was very good at that. I've never seen that. I like that movie. It's a good movie. It's very long. It was one of those epics where I was like, I can't believe this. I like that movie. It's a good movie. It's very long. Good movie. It was one of those epics where I was like, I can't believe this is actually good. Wow.
Starting point is 00:54:09 Like I thought it was going to be shit. Because a lot of those sort of epic movies have been shit. And it felt like easily slip into just wankery where the director is just tossing off and this is just not a good movie. This is an actual good movie. Right. Yeah. What is David Graham's book, which he put out before The Wager, which I talked about
Starting point is 00:54:28 or reading a couple of years ago, which I thought was excellent. I'm sure The Wager will be made into the next movie because Kills of Flaming was, did The Lost City of Zed get done into the movie as well? Yeah, I think so. So he is the sort of a bit of a screen, screen darling, I think at the moment. Right. Yeah. I think he's, um, he's on the up for sure. 79. They're always looking for actors to, uh, to, to sort of, they, they need at a certain point, an actor who can actually act.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Like I think that's, that's a great podcast. Thank you for joining us. Yeah. Thanks so much. Yeah. Cheers. We'll, uh, we'll see you next time when we do another one of these podcasts. Same time, same place, normally, I guess. It's pretty normal. Barring vacations, I guess everybody's got some stuff to do coming up soon, right? Over Easter and whatnot.
Starting point is 00:55:15 No, because obviously now Mrs. F is away. So next week, we're just going to be chilling around the house. Nice. And then the week after that, we are going away for a few days because my mom needed a break. I found out that the place that we're staying backs onto a petrol station, which I didn't know when I booked it. That's great.
Starting point is 00:55:34 So I've booked this cottage and it's literally the cottage is touching the petrol station for court. Well, that's so handy. Are you going to have your car? Yeah. But, and think of all the snacks that you can go and get there too. No, I don't want it. I don't want to be next to you. You don't want to have convenient snacks available to you. What the hell?
Starting point is 00:55:52 No, I'll tell you why. Because the whole point was that we wanted somewhere with a hot tub, because that would be fun and we could sit in the hot tub. Right. And it's going to stink of petrol. And you don't like the smell of it. Can't even make it. I know. Mrs. F can't even make it. And which is even worse, my sister can't make it either. So it's just going to be me and the kids and my mom. It's not going to be it's not going to sound like
Starting point is 00:56:16 that doesn't sound like like a great atmosphere for hot tubbing generally. So maybe just just sack off the hot tub and stay close to the petrol station so you can go get some snacks. Snacks. And you can fill up as well, you know, conveniently. That's nice. Yeah. Anyway, see you next time.
Starting point is 00:56:32 Bye bye. Goodbye. Bye bye.
