Speaker 1: Welcome to Movie Crush, a production of I Heart Radio.
Speaker 1: Hey everybody, and welcome to Many Crush. Quarantine Edition. Another
Speaker 1: Quarantine Edition. Hello Noel, Hi Chuck. Oh boy, is that
Speaker 1: where you're at? I mean, you know, when you put
Speaker 1: it like that, it's hard not to another. It makes
Speaker 1: me think of like this is the new way the
Speaker 1: quarantin you know, remember, it reminds me of like transmissions
Speaker 1: you'd hear, like you'd pick up from some like you know, Maroon,
Speaker 1: like Space Traveler. That's like day three. You still here, ye,
Speaker 1: still still doing the thing, create a sense of normalcy,
Speaker 1: so I don't lose my mind. They're like, what was
Speaker 1: that movie with with Tom Hanks where he's got the
Speaker 1: beach Ball? Oh, Turner and Whoche. That's the one. That's
Speaker 1: one where he had his partner of the beach Ball
Speaker 1: that he would solve crimes with his partner's partner. Rouch. Yeah.
Speaker 1: A delightful film, a real romp, the beach Ball. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So uh, First of all, it is April one as
Speaker 1: we record this, and it's funny and old to think
Speaker 1: back that a year ago today, the most the biggest
Speaker 1: thing movie crushers had to be upset about was being
Speaker 1: tricked by Kevin Pollock. That's Christopher Walking. That was a
Speaker 1: dirty trick, Chuck, simpler times. I know, Gosh, you're right, hey,
Speaker 1: fall only I pine for the glory days of being
Speaker 1: conned by Christopher walkin folk Christopher Walking. Yeah. Man. Uh
Speaker 1: So here's what's been going on you guys lately? Is uh?
Speaker 1: I think there's there are a lot of artistic types
Speaker 1: that are diving into projects right now, which is kind
Speaker 1: of neat, Like, I hope people are using this time
Speaker 1: to the best of their ability and trying to be
Speaker 1: positive about things. So I have this recording unit that
Speaker 1: Noel hooked me up with called a Spire and Buzz Marketing.
Speaker 1: The Spire s P I R E. And it is
Speaker 1: a great little unit. And I think we mentioned last
Speaker 1: time that we I recorded some music just for frenzies.
Speaker 1: I just sat in one take and did a little,
Speaker 1: uh stripped down kind of country version of the You
Speaker 1: two song in God's Country, and I sent it to
Speaker 1: you and you have put that baby to eleven. Thanks man.
Speaker 1: I spent a lot of time with it. It's been
Speaker 1: nice to just have like a foundational thing to build off.
Speaker 1: I realized that's what I was always pretty good. At
Speaker 1: was like taking something somebody else did and then just
Speaker 1: kind of going to town on it. Uh. And honestly,
Speaker 1: I have to thank you, because, you know, I kind
Speaker 1: of been getting my home recording set up up to
Speaker 1: snuff and put him playing a lot of guitar, and
Speaker 1: I got a bunch of cool, like fun noise making
Speaker 1: pedals for like shimmery reverbs and delays, and I put
Speaker 1: all that ship on this tack. It is very layered
Speaker 1: and very lush, and uh, I think we we should
Speaker 1: let the movie crushers hear it, so totally. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm putting the finishing touches on it. There's a couple
Speaker 1: of little things I want to add a few things
Speaker 1: I took away because it is layered, but things come
Speaker 1: and go. It doesn't just like blow you blow your
Speaker 1: head off with like too much stuff, you know. I
Speaker 1: try to make it kind of ebb and flow and
Speaker 1: have like some space to build. So that's it's been
Speaker 1: really fun. I worked on until six in the morning
Speaker 1: the other day. I sat in my room and just
Speaker 1: worked crazy. It was really cool. And I assume this
Speaker 1: is without the aid of cocaine. Cocaine sure, whatever you
Speaker 1: whatever you need to, whatever helps you sleep, right. Um So,
Speaker 1: so we have recorded this song together, as it turns out,
Speaker 1: but apart, and I think we're gonna let the movie
Speaker 1: Crushers year and I've been trying to look for another
Speaker 1: one to pick out, another kind of stripped down country
Speaker 1: fried diversion of something else, and I'm going to send
Speaker 1: that to you and you never know. I think we
Speaker 1: should release this under the banner velvet half fuck. You're
Speaker 1: the half fuck. Yeah, I remember old half fuck Chuck.
Speaker 1: I do remember that, Yeah, smoky velvet. No. And then
Speaker 1: I tell you I haven't actually done it yet, but
Speaker 1: I've been reached out to by a handful of Crushers
Speaker 1: on the PlayStation network to do a little group gaming,
Speaker 1: and I just had. The timing hasn't been quite right,
Speaker 1: but I can't remember the user names right off the bat,
Speaker 1: but there are at least three or four that friend
Speaker 1: requested me and I accepted, and I'm ready to go.
Speaker 1: But you know, I'm lucky. I don want to see
Speaker 1: like I'm I'm bitching like I I do have to
Speaker 1: continue doing my normal work, so I can't just like
Speaker 1: game whenever, but like after certain hours if you catch
Speaker 1: me I absolutely play a Borderland sesh with you. And
Speaker 1: I also just got the free call of do the
Speaker 1: war Zone game, which is kind of like a giant
Speaker 1: map like uh uh Fortnite that when the kids really like,
Speaker 1: but this one's more, you know, realistic army type shooty stuff.
Speaker 1: And honestly, I tend to not play those types of
Speaker 1: group games because I'm not very good and I get
Speaker 1: sniped like instantly, and it just hurts my feelings. Uh.
Speaker 1: And also a lot of people on those games not
Speaker 1: very nice, Chuck. They say a lot of they say
Speaker 1: a lot of naughty words, and they say some things
Speaker 1: that are not particularly nice about women and people of
Speaker 1: other persuasions. It's a it's a bit of a cesspool
Speaker 1: of scum and villainy. I know none of you crushers
Speaker 1: out there like that, but let us know what you think.
Speaker 1: If you're into those games, how do you deal with
Speaker 1: those trolls? Why do you Why didn't dickheads have to
Speaker 1: ruin everything exactly and then and then they snipe you?
Speaker 1: They had insult to injury by sniping your ass in
Speaker 1: two seconds? How old are these people do you think?
Speaker 1: I think a lot of them are younger, and I
Speaker 1: think a lot of them are just in a state
Speaker 1: of arrested development. Are like creepy in cells that probably
Speaker 1: shouldn't you know, just don't get out. They just this
Speaker 1: is how they creepy and cells. Um So I finished
Speaker 1: a Call of Duty World War two and like a week, uh,
Speaker 1: it turns out that a Nazi one is it? What
Speaker 1: is that? A Nazi one? Is it? Like? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I just had a good time just wasting Nazis.
Speaker 1: But it's it was over very fast, like usually you
Speaker 1: can't finish the game like that and that much time.
Speaker 1: But um, and it was also the you only had
Speaker 1: the choice of first person perspective, which I'm not a
Speaker 1: fan of. I'm a better fan of, like the Red
Speaker 1: Dead perspective, which is totally I don't know what it's called.
Speaker 1: But third person. Yeah, where you can that's what's not
Speaker 1: that's what's called in the parlance of gamah, yeah, like
Speaker 1: where you can see yourself. But you're also you know,
Speaker 1: in control of some games let you switch, which is
Speaker 1: a lot of fun. You know Read Dead does actually,
Speaker 1: But I just I've never been a huge fan of
Speaker 1: the first person Chuck. I think the reason that your
Speaker 1: Call of Duty game was so unsatisfyingly short is those
Speaker 1: games really do lean on the multiplayer experience more than
Speaker 1: they do the story experience. The story is kind of
Speaker 1: almost an afterthought. And so what does multiplayer mean? I
Speaker 1: get online and all of a sudden, all the guys
Speaker 1: in the platoon are real people. Yeah, and all the
Speaker 1: nerds are cursing at you and shooting at you. You
Speaker 1: usually do deathmatches. You can have like a team, but
Speaker 1: usually it's like you're fighting against other people who kill
Speaker 1: you like instantly and then laugh over your course. I'm
Speaker 1: not Yeah, I'm not good enough for That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: These people play all day every day. It's like a lifestyle. Nope,
Speaker 1: don't even try to go toe to toe brother, No,
Speaker 1: thank you. All right, so we've wasted enough time. Let's
Speaker 1: get it going here with some uh quarantine addish stuffy
Speaker 1: and hopefully this serves as a distraction and as a
Speaker 1: because I'm asking people sort of quarantine e questions because
Speaker 1: that's where you're all at, man, that's the human condition
Speaker 1: right now. So we started it off with a very
Speaker 1: simple question, l are there any movies that you absolutely
Speaker 1: are trying to avoid and not watch? Right? Now, um,
Speaker 1: obviously a movie like Contagion, some people would really like
Speaker 1: to see that. Some people absolutely would not outbreak. Perhaps
Speaker 1: remember that one with Dustin Hoffman. Sure about the monkey.
Speaker 1: It was the monkey's fault in that one. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna get it started here, and this will lead to
Speaker 1: a quick side convo, I'm sure from Genesis. Chapman says,
Speaker 1: on all honesty, it may be just me and my wife,
Speaker 1: but Tiger King we gave it less than five minutes,
Speaker 1: looked at each other and said, I really don't want
Speaker 1: to watch that. Oh that's a mistake. It evolves, It evolves,
Speaker 1: you know what. Dude, though I'm on episode three and
Speaker 1: I'm kind of done with it. That's fair, it's it's
Speaker 1: it's a certain thing for sure, Like, uh, it makes
Speaker 1: me think of like a really elaborate Harmony Curran movie
Speaker 1: that is actually real, you know, Like that's that's some
Speaker 1: Sometimes sometimes that's not for everybody. It picks people out.
Speaker 1: I I take a little shot in Freud from it,
Speaker 1: and I just find the filmmaking really great, and the
Speaker 1: fact that this guy managed to capture this batshit story
Speaker 1: I just find really fascinating. So that that's that's my take,
Speaker 1: I haven't finished it yet. Yeah. I think where I'm
Speaker 1: at is do I want to spend my time watching
Speaker 1: gross awful people doing gross awful things? And I don't
Speaker 1: think I really want to spend my time doing that
Speaker 1: right now, But I get like people are into it.
Speaker 1: It's like a Harmony Crean movie that really happened. So Genesis,
Speaker 1: I'm kind of with you there, and and I should
Speaker 1: finish Genesis is Genesis statement After about twenty seconds, I
Speaker 1: was so repulsed and realized I have so much disappointment
Speaker 1: and discussed in the human race these days. I really
Speaker 1: don't need anymore. So and yet it seems like so
Speaker 1: many people are taking a lot of comfort in this
Speaker 1: fucking thing. Have you noticed all the memes? And people
Speaker 1: are just going bonkers for it? I know, uh yeah,
Speaker 1: I get to each their own. I guess I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna yuck someone's young. So there was a there was
Speaker 1: a meme where it was like Trump whispering to one
Speaker 1: of his you know, captain member saying, release the Tiger documentary,
Speaker 1: like the world's going to ship. We need we need
Speaker 1: some comfort. That's pretty funny, all right, Old pal Kristen
Speaker 1: Glenn kissed her says, I made the mistake of reading
Speaker 1: and then watching The Shining during springbreak when I was sixteen.
Speaker 1: Not a movie I want to revisit right now, all right, yeah,
Speaker 1: hold up in a house, I get it. Emily Newton
Speaker 1: says hereditary because I'm alone and don't want to scare
Speaker 1: myself to death. Uh yeah, you know, I haven't really
Speaker 1: thought about people that are quarantined literally by themselves right now.
Speaker 1: That's that can't be easy, you know. Uh. You know,
Speaker 1: I've got my family here, which is great. Uh So
Speaker 1: to all of you out there that are that are
Speaker 1: doing this alone, hats off to you, because that's you're
Speaker 1: you're doing the right thing, and that's that's a tough
Speaker 1: thing to do right now for you. Imagine, I'm really lucky.
Speaker 1: I mean, I have a roommate. Um but yeahs I'll
Speaker 1: I'll be real for a second. Uh my, you know,
Speaker 1: my daughter stays with me a lot of the week normally,
Speaker 1: and her mom and I made the decision because my
Speaker 1: roommate works in a courthouse and has has been required
Speaker 1: to go back to work. He doesn't work for the state,
Speaker 1: arts for a law firm and does like uh legal
Speaker 1: document polls from these record rooms that um work, my
Speaker 1: daughter's gonna stay with her mom. Uh, not indefinitely, but
Speaker 1: like at least first solid two weeks until we kind
Speaker 1: of reassess what's going on, because she's just you know,
Speaker 1: she has a baby and uh it just doesn't want
Speaker 1: to take any chances. And I totally get that, but
Speaker 1: it's also kind of a bummer because she was one
Speaker 1: thing that was really making this a little more bearable
Speaker 1: for me, having like, you know, she's eleven and she's
Speaker 1: really like my my pal and we you know, play
Speaker 1: video games together and like do stuff and take walks
Speaker 1: and like she's just the best. So a lot of
Speaker 1: face timing will be in the next couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: But that was kind of a blow. Yeah, man, I
Speaker 1: wasn't gonna mention that because I didn't know if you
Speaker 1: wanted that out there, but you were. You and I
Speaker 1: were chextinging about that last night, and it's, uh, that's
Speaker 1: just tough, dude. I'm really sorry. Um, you guys are
Speaker 1: probably doing the right thing, but it's just that is
Speaker 1: that is very, very tough. And just know that you've
Speaker 1: got a very long life with this kid, and this
Speaker 1: old will be a little blip totally, and then there's
Speaker 1: no ill will. It's no like her mom is keeping
Speaker 1: her from me. It was a decision we made mutually,
Speaker 1: and I completely support her because you know, she's got
Speaker 1: a young child and just wants to make sure that
Speaker 1: and we are so little we know about this damn thing.
Speaker 1: I just think abundance of caution is the right move
Speaker 1: right now, you know, exactly all right, let's go with
Speaker 1: our oldest of friends, a little lady name Rebecca the
Speaker 1: Robester Robes. Uh. Any kind of real life type drama
Speaker 1: about a sibling, parent, or child dying, give me ridiculous
Speaker 1: or impossible right now? Not highly probable. Yeah, we definitely
Speaker 1: don't watch My Girl. Don't watch No My Girl. Probably
Speaker 1: probably not a good movie to watch. Let me see here.
Speaker 1: Grant Woody, one of our old friends, says, uh, definitely
Speaker 1: leaning away from dystopian films with society falls a setting
Speaker 1: like the Road Book of Eli, even the Lego movie too. Uh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I haven't seen those Lego movies or heard those are good,
Speaker 1: though they are delightful. You know what I'm gonna watch
Speaker 1: finally with my daughter nol That which the Gibili one
Speaker 1: that everyone says it's so great to Toro. Yeah, my neighbor, Totoro. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's fantastic. They're all good. She would also really like Ponio,
Speaker 1: which is sort of a little mermaid esque story about
Speaker 1: a little fish girl. But it's so cute and it's
Speaker 1: very age appropriate that that's the first one that my
Speaker 1: kid just went bananas over because the little fish girl
Speaker 1: is just the cutest little thing, looks almost like a
Speaker 1: hand puppet. Um and Totoro is awesome with the big
Speaker 1: cat dog creature and there's like a bust that looks
Speaker 1: like a cat and just very magical. Those those are
Speaker 1: all fabulous too. For a it is, Yeah, that one is.
Speaker 1: There's only a few that are like like there's a
Speaker 1: princess Mononoke has got some gore. That one's a little
Speaker 1: more PG. Thirteen, but Um Totoro is age appropriate. There's
Speaker 1: one called um kikiS Delivery Service that's about a young
Speaker 1: witch sort of like a teen which kikiS Delivery Service.
Speaker 1: She'd like that one too, very cool female, tough female
Speaker 1: character and she's got a little cat that she talks to.
Speaker 1: And really recommend Ponio. That one, my my kid. I
Speaker 1: think I should watched that when she was like four
Speaker 1: or five, and she just immediately loved it when went
Speaker 1: eight four it. Yeah, I'll definitely check those out because
Speaker 1: all the movie crushers love those movies. The only bummer
Speaker 1: is I don't know where you can stream them. I
Speaker 1: think you have to like buy them, and they're a
Speaker 1: little pricey. There's no they're like, there's no like middle
Speaker 1: ground for those Ghibli movies. I wish there was a
Speaker 1: Ghibli streaming service on its song because they've got a
Speaker 1: lot of content. But I'm sure you can find it.
Speaker 1: I'll just buy him, like, yep. It helps to have
Speaker 1: those in the collection, you know. Absolutely. Let's continue here
Speaker 1: with Brian Basse. Top Fans says it comes at night
Speaker 1: contagion type movie, but very real and to too far
Speaker 1: from our current situation. Did you see that, Chuck? Fuck? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was awesome. It was great great. It was like
Speaker 1: an invisible killer where you didn't even quite know what
Speaker 1: was going on. It was like sort of like there
Speaker 1: was an event and he didn't really know what the
Speaker 1: deal was and that was really really great. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: like not knowing it was kind of cool. Cable Morris's
Speaker 1: Cabin Fever remarkable movie, but the way the disease is
Speaker 1: depicted his Soubit's role. Can't think of anything that would
Speaker 1: unnerve me more, right, I mean silver lining is this
Speaker 1: coronavirus doesn't melt our flesh off of our bodies. That's
Speaker 1: pretty cool. At least there's that. Yeah, for sure, let
Speaker 1: me see here. Um of course, disaster movies San Andreas
Speaker 1: twelve that comes from CAROLEE Stevens. Joey Masterson says, I
Speaker 1: don't think any movie should be off the table. Movies
Speaker 1: are an escape from the harsh realities of Now. Sure,
Speaker 1: I'll get that in a way. I could watch whatever.
Speaker 1: I'm not too affected by that stuff. No, no, I
Speaker 1: and a lot of people are doing this. There's this
Speaker 1: like this browser extension for Netflix to let you do
Speaker 1: like Netflix watch parties. Have you heard about this? Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I thought about doing that with the movie Crushers. It
Speaker 1: seems like it would be a chaotic disaster though with
Speaker 1: that many people. Yeah, I think it's probably designed more
Speaker 1: for like groups of ten or ish. You know, like
Speaker 1: there's a chat. I don't think you're actually talking. I
Speaker 1: think it's just a chat like sidebarns. Yeah, anyway, a
Speaker 1: friend of mine tried watching Candy Man with some of
Speaker 1: her friends and she's not a fan of horror movies
Speaker 1: in general, and was like, oh, I'll give it a try,
Speaker 1: and it apparently was not fun for her. I watched
Speaker 1: that one pretty recently and it holds up. It's pretty spooky.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, have you seen the remake trailer? I did?
Speaker 1: I did. I think it looks pretty cool. I agree,
Speaker 1: and I know that Jordan Peel has something to do
Speaker 1: with it, so, um, it's a cool story. It's like
Speaker 1: it's like a cool urban or kind of I say urban,
Speaker 1: not like using that horrible stand in for like hip hop.
Speaker 1: I just mean it takes place in like an inner
Speaker 1: city in this project called Cabrini Green. Um. Oh sure,
Speaker 1: I know about Cabrini Green legend area area. So all
Speaker 1: right now we're gonna move on to We're gonna do
Speaker 1: a little stream this to set up the next segment,
Speaker 1: because I asked people what they were bening on TV
Speaker 1: and to rate them by thumbs, just so people have
Speaker 1: some good recommendations. Um, I have been watching Tiger King
Speaker 1: a little bit. I told you I've been watching Dev's
Speaker 1: and uh, that's kind of where we are right now.
Speaker 1: I just don't know whether or not a habit in
Speaker 1: me to finish Tiger King. I do like the story,
Speaker 1: but it's just that trashy rednecks doing bad things to
Speaker 1: animals is just tough for me right now. That's the kicker. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're right, that part does does bother me, and it's
Speaker 1: hard to kind of power through. But you are rewarded.
Speaker 1: I don't know how far you've gotten, but there's some
Speaker 1: twists that are pretty fantastic. How many episodes are there? Total? Seven?
Speaker 1: I think? Alright, well I'm on like four. I might
Speaker 1: as old as fucking finish it, you know. And the
Speaker 1: kid that works at Walmart is the saving grace of
Speaker 1: the whole movie. I haven't seen that yet at all. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: well there you go. All right. What have you been watching? Well?
Speaker 1: I I blasted through the new season of Ozark. I'm
Speaker 1: kind of bummed that I did, because now I've got
Speaker 1: no more left and there won't be more of that
Speaker 1: show for like a year or more. God, with all
Speaker 1: this stuff and production, you watched it all. I watched
Speaker 1: it all in a couple of days. Yeah, I was
Speaker 1: just I really got into that show. I mean it's
Speaker 1: just like it's so good. It's we haven't watched that
Speaker 1: any yet. We're kind of waiting to finish Dev's. I
Speaker 1: think before we died Devs will be next for me. Um.
Speaker 1: I was really intrigued on that one from the start.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think the new season of Ozark is
Speaker 1: maybe the best yet. There's a new character that's introduced
Speaker 1: that is heartbreaking and just beautifully acted. Really, come man,
Speaker 1: it won't tell you anything, but wait, love love, love
Speaker 1: that show. Um. So we'll move on into the recommendations
Speaker 1: here from the crushers. Uh. And I asked for the
Speaker 1: thumbs and some people aren't thumbing it, so that makes
Speaker 1: me very upset. So if you didn't give a thumbs rating,
Speaker 1: then you're not gonna get red. Shame on you for shame.
Speaker 1: Fight my thumb at you for not using thumbs. Oldest
Speaker 1: of Bels, Aaron Snell says Banda Brothers. I never saw that.
Speaker 1: I need to check that out. He gives it four
Speaker 1: and a half thumbs. Uh. He said, I'd didg it
Speaker 1: a bit for being dated, but it's such a good
Speaker 1: show and historically accurate. I wonder how it's dated. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a it's a period piece, right, isn't it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but maybe you know there's something about shows from certain
Speaker 1: eras that might just be dated. That's true. I mean
Speaker 1: when we were made, not when it's set. So maybe
Speaker 1: that's what it is. Or maybe he just means there's
Speaker 1: not enough you know, good hard sex. That must be it.
Speaker 1: Victoria Reid says, Ship's Creek. I need to check that out.
Speaker 1: Everyone says it's great. Uh. She said it's adding levity
Speaker 1: to her life and streaming Ozark and Tiger King and
Speaker 1: five out of five thumbs on all of the above. See. Now,
Speaker 1: it's funny, Chuck that you said you don't like watching
Speaker 1: terrible people doing terrible things like yet you like Ozark.
Speaker 1: There's also a lot of rednecks doing rednecky terrible things
Speaker 1: in that too. Yeah, but that's fiction. That's totally different.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, you draw the line. I do. But when
Speaker 1: I know it's really happening, it's it's upsetting to me.
Speaker 1: I got you, I got you. Let me see here.
Speaker 1: Our old friend Hanu vis Ri says this, uh friends
Speaker 1: three and a half thumbs. Um, I t crew crowd,
Speaker 1: you know, is that a thing? Yeah, it's a British show.
Speaker 1: It's fabulous, you'd love it. Chuck Richard Iowatti, who is
Speaker 1: a really good director in his own right. He did
Speaker 1: a movie called The Double, in a movie called Submarine. Um.
Speaker 1: He plays this nerdy characters, these two guys that work
Speaker 1: in like an I T office of a big company.
Speaker 1: And it's just good, delightful, goofy British humor. It's really
Speaker 1: really good. I dude love that. Let me see here.
Speaker 1: Our oldest of friends, Vanessa Lopez. Hey, Vanessa says, Ship's
Speaker 1: Creek all the thumbs and Zoe's Extraordinary Playlists four thumbs.
Speaker 1: It's silly but surprisingly sweet. I need to see Ship's Creek, Noll.
Speaker 1: Have you seen it? It's got all the people I
Speaker 1: love it does, and I tell you that's why I
Speaker 1: was a little surprised that I kind of lost me
Speaker 1: when I watched the first few episodes. But apparently it
Speaker 1: gets really good. Uh, and I need to give another chance.
Speaker 1: All right, I'll check it out. Our old friend Roger
Speaker 1: Dodger says, is the assumption here that people aren't working.
Speaker 1: It seems like almost everyone I know is working from home,
Speaker 1: including myself, so not having a commute just allows for
Speaker 1: one extra show per night for me, so I'm not
Speaker 1: really binging well, Roger very sadly, many, many, many people
Speaker 1: are not able to work right now. That's just the
Speaker 1: reality of it. If you are able to work from home,
Speaker 1: then you're one of the lucky ones. My friend, like
Speaker 1: I said, my my daughter's mom is a massage therapist
Speaker 1: and owns her own business. She's done for the time being,
Speaker 1: and her husband works in film, which is done for
Speaker 1: the time being. So they are absolutely just working on
Speaker 1: garden projects and collecting unemployment. You know, I mean that
Speaker 1: is a huge what was it, thirty million people applied
Speaker 1: for unemployment. I mean it's a thing. Yeah, yeah, it
Speaker 1: is a thing. Richard Mars still says the Americans four
Speaker 1: out of five. Bit of a slow burn, but well written,
Speaker 1: has a great cast and really solid Reagan era soundtrack. Uh,
Speaker 1: Emily watched all that. She loved it. I just I
Speaker 1: think she started it without me, and so I just
Speaker 1: never got to get in and catch up with her.
Speaker 1: But she loved it. They're like spies, right, have they spies?
Speaker 1: Russian expression spies. Yeah I haven't. I haven't heard really
Speaker 1: good things, heard really good things. Grant Wood he says
Speaker 1: he's rewatching Brooklyn nine nine because it's such a like escape,
Speaker 1: you know. I'll watched the first We watched the first
Speaker 1: like two or three seasons of that and really liked it.
Speaker 1: I don't know why we stopped. It was very funny show.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of seasons of that show. It's like
Speaker 1: eight or nine seasons something. It's been going on for
Speaker 1: a long time. Yeah, it was great, and it got
Speaker 1: it got dropped for a minute and then picked back
Speaker 1: up or something like something happened where I got like
Speaker 1: canceled and then remember there was there was like an outrage,
Speaker 1: you know, and then they picked it back up or
Speaker 1: renewed it, or another network got it or switched networks.
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't remember exactly one of those things. I
Speaker 1: wonder it was a Fox show. I wonder if it
Speaker 1: went over to X or something. It might have been that.
Speaker 1: I I don't remember the details, but there was a
Speaker 1: hubbub when they got canceled because people really love that show.
Speaker 1: I like Andy Sandburg. I've loved them since, like the
Speaker 1: Lonely Island Days on YouTube. Like these guys are fantastic.
Speaker 1: Brian Ridge says, watch Tiger King two out of five
Speaker 1: but entertaining, and The Outsider solid four or five. We
Speaker 1: were watching The Outsider and then just kind of stopped.
Speaker 1: I've heard that it the first two or three episodes
Speaker 1: are just really gripping and edge of your seat, and
Speaker 1: then it sort of falls off. Even Ramsey said that,
Speaker 1: and I read a few reviews that said that too.
Speaker 1: But um, I want to I want to get into
Speaker 1: it because I've got my Jason Bateman because I need
Speaker 1: to get now. So now that I blasted through Ozark, yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I don't want to ruin anything for you. I just
Speaker 1: I don't know. It really lost me after a few episodes.
Speaker 1: It wasn't moving along quickly enough like I wanted a
Speaker 1: little bit more. Like I feel like entire episodes would
Speaker 1: go by and you wouldn't learn many new things. So
Speaker 1: that's why I stopped. I've I've done that for a
Speaker 1: few shows though, where I like watched the first few
Speaker 1: episodes and kind of fell off, and then revisit it
Speaker 1: later and I find something that I may be missed
Speaker 1: the first time. But that sounds like this is kind
Speaker 1: of the consensus about this show, that like the first
Speaker 1: three or great, and then something happens the vibe changes
Speaker 1: and it sort of drops off like they run out
Speaker 1: of ideas or something like that. Yeah, let me see here,
Speaker 1: Melissa Mgain says Jack Ryan on Amazon really loved it
Speaker 1: for an action show, five thumbs up. Alright, I haven't
Speaker 1: seen that yet. I do like uh Krasinski though, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah yeah him is a badass. Like you know what.
Speaker 1: Tom k Anty character always struck me as a little interesting,
Speaker 1: and I'd like I think he I'd like to see it,
Speaker 1: I really would. I've been seeing it pop up on
Speaker 1: the recommendations on the I've Got a Fire TV and
Speaker 1: so it like you know, spams you with all their
Speaker 1: original content at the top, so I might check it out.
Speaker 1: Was have you seen the Krazinski is doing that good
Speaker 1: news thing from his house? It's very sweet. It is
Speaker 1: very sweet. And I watched that first episode with Steve
Speaker 1: Carell and it was just great to see those guys
Speaker 1: hanging his friends. I love it. Brandon McDonald just finished
Speaker 1: watching Boy Meets World for the up tea time. I
Speaker 1: needed something light and silly. Five out of five bombs.
Speaker 1: I had such a crush on to Panga. That was
Speaker 1: age appropriate, you know, Like I had a huge crush
Speaker 1: on to Panga, and I was always like, Corey is
Speaker 1: such a nerd. How did he get to Panga? She
Speaker 1: is so out of his league. I never saw that show. Okay,
Speaker 1: so you don't know what I'm talking about. No, that
Speaker 1: was too old as far as you're concerned. Topanga as
Speaker 1: a canyon in Los Angeles. I was gonna say, carry
Speaker 1: O'Neil says Tiger King. Check make King a murderer? Part two.
Speaker 1: I did not know there was a part two. Is
Speaker 1: it a different story? I don't know. It might just
Speaker 1: be coninuation because there was some more legal news about that.
Speaker 1: I know. I have a hard time going back to
Speaker 1: a show because I remember years ago we watched and
Speaker 1: this was kind of before the big true crime wave.
Speaker 1: That was a documentary series called The Staircase. That was
Speaker 1: with the nuns, right no, no, no, no no no. This
Speaker 1: was about a man who may or may not have
Speaker 1: killed his wife, um and it was really good. There
Speaker 1: was one with nuns and like abuse in Catholic schools
Speaker 1: that that came out not too too long ago, that
Speaker 1: had a name kind of like the Staircase. You're looking
Speaker 1: at sister at two back in the habit, that's the
Speaker 1: one WHOOPI is a revelation in that not to mention
Speaker 1: it when a a young Lauren Hill finds her voice
Speaker 1: and sings his Eyes on the Sparrow and wins the
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, she wins. She wins the day, Chuck,
Speaker 1: she wins the day. She's great. Was it miseducation? Uh,
Speaker 1: it was a re education. If you've forgotten about Lauren Hill,
Speaker 1: you should remember her because she's awesome. Very nice way
Speaker 1: to roll with it. But the Staircase they went back
Speaker 1: and had a not a sequel, but just a continuation
Speaker 1: years later. And I just I don't know. Once I've
Speaker 1: seen something, I'm kind of like, I'll just read about
Speaker 1: it in the news. Something new happens. Yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: look up, see what do you get to search terms for.
Speaker 1: I do know what you're talking about though, with the
Speaker 1: with the none one, I'm just having in none Depressing Netflix,
Speaker 1: it was really good. It was called The Keeper. Came
Speaker 1: right up with none Depressing Netflix. It was infuriating. So yeah, yeah, uh,
Speaker 1: Emily Grant says, just now finishing Veep, solid five thumbs up. Yeah.
Speaker 1: VIEP is one of the great shows of all time.
Speaker 1: I think we talked about this on the show before,
Speaker 1: but I think it has the most jokes, like per
Speaker 1: second of any show. It's just bam. But have you
Speaker 1: seen that new one from him on HBO, the Space one.
Speaker 1: It's called Avenue nine or it's it's a weird name
Speaker 1: that I can never remember because it doesn't make me
Speaker 1: think of space at all. But it's got Hugh Laurie
Speaker 1: is in it. From the House and uh I heard
Speaker 1: it wasn't good, but it's it's it's that guy Antonio
Speaker 1: and Nucci or whatever or whatever his first name is,
Speaker 1: who did Veep and also Death of Stalin, both of
Speaker 1: which I adore. Like, yeah, it's great. He's got another one.
Speaker 1: He's got another one called like the Loop that's about
Speaker 1: like Washington politics. That was pre or maybe it's about
Speaker 1: British politics anyway, something about politics, but it's pre Veep.
Speaker 1: But love that guy. Man. He's a fascinating dude. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And the writing is just unlike, it's intimidating, as a
Speaker 1: fellow screenwriter of sorts, very intimidating to that good. He
Speaker 1: writes good, he writes real good. Alex Galthier says, the
Speaker 1: Man in the High Castle, I've still never seen that
Speaker 1: he says four point to five mangled bumbs. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: see what about this one? Um? The hunters have you
Speaker 1: seen this with Alpacino? Haven't seen it? They're like not
Speaker 1: not Nazi hunters. It's really heavy, man, and they do
Speaker 1: a lot of revisionist history where they like make up
Speaker 1: new atrocities for the Nazis to have meant to be,
Speaker 1: to have committed, uh that are really that are really
Speaker 1: like um almost like saw, like the Saw movies or
Speaker 1: something like really twisted. And I think that there's a
Speaker 1: museum for Auschwitz or bergen Belson or one of those
Speaker 1: those uh, you know, the most notable UM death camps,
Speaker 1: the most horrific ones that had a real problem with it,
Speaker 1: where it's like making up new atrocities to you know,
Speaker 1: feed people's trashy imaginations as a disservice to the victims
Speaker 1: of you know, these actual death camps. And I don't
Speaker 1: I don't entirely disagree, but it is fiction, so maybe,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe cool it a little bit, but I
Speaker 1: don't know. It's heavy, heavy stuff. It's that people are
Speaker 1: going to be polarized by it. Everyone's got an opinion
Speaker 1: these days. No, have you noticed that it's true people
Speaker 1: are like telling people their thoughts about things on Internet.
Speaker 1: Opinions are like thumbs chuck, everyone's got him and everyone
Speaker 1: wants to mangle everybody else's. Jonathan Cooley says, little fires everywhere,
Speaker 1: solid four thumbs. Emily's watching that right now, Lauren Duke says,
Speaker 1: BoJack Horsemen in the Crown, both four thumbs. Oh you
Speaker 1: know what. I started watching to Noll, but is now
Speaker 1: my sort of late night go to once Simily goes
Speaker 1: to sleep. Is a big mouth. It's very very funny,
Speaker 1: very well written, funny and and and really filthy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but so sweet too at the same Yeah, exactly. I
Speaker 1: love me some Nick Kroll and it's got all my
Speaker 1: favorites do voices like I think John Mulaney's on it,
Speaker 1: and uh, what's his name, Raffie from The League? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Jason man Zuka is Yeah, yeah, he plays I can't
Speaker 1: remember the character's name. It's so good, but goddamn dude
Speaker 1: that I can't remember what they call him, the the
Speaker 1: the devil character whatever that appears, the libido or whatever.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's that's not man zukas I thought
Speaker 1: he played the penis monster devil. No, no no, no, the
Speaker 1: very first iteration is actually Nick Kroll. He does so
Speaker 1: many of those voices. Got it. Um, it's so good man.
Speaker 1: I just like it's funny that it's silly animated movie
Speaker 1: like that captures adolescent so well. See. I think my problem,
Speaker 1: Chuck is I'm a bit of a prude and quite
Speaker 1: sexually repressed, so I tend to uh, I tend to
Speaker 1: steer away from raunchy subject matter like oh, you know,
Speaker 1: old smoky velvet, that old proofs uh uh let me
Speaker 1: see here. Noel Gibson says broad City four thumbs. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't watch that last season. I need to get
Speaker 1: back into that and finish it up. I love those ladies,
Speaker 1: they are so wonderful. And just what a Lana was
Speaker 1: just here in Atlanta before ship got apocalyptic and did
Speaker 1: like a Bernie event or something like that, a really
Speaker 1: cool local d I y spot called the Mammal Gallery
Speaker 1: um and did like kind of like a comedy rally
Speaker 1: thing and it was was really really well well attended.
Speaker 1: I should have gone to that. Uh let me see here.
Speaker 1: Berta Boozon Ferguson says broad Church five thumbs. I've heard
Speaker 1: that's really good. I need to see it the same
Speaker 1: as letter Kenny. I've heard that's really good. That five
Speaker 1: thumbs from Christopher Signer like and he's great, highly recommend.
Speaker 1: There's just so much Noll's too much. It's too much,
Speaker 1: so just you know, do it one step, one piece
Speaker 1: of time. These are all good, rex. I haven't heard
Speaker 1: a bad one yet. Let me see here our old
Speaker 1: friend Lisa Romano, says Madman on five thumbs, uh Dynasty
Speaker 1: three thumbs. She calls it Soapie bliss and another ship's
Speaker 1: creek five five thumbs. People are putting a little thumb
Speaker 1: inmote geez. I like that. I love a good thumbu emogi. Yeah,
Speaker 1: where do the thumbs thing come from? I think it
Speaker 1: was back when we were doing uh, the first judgment.
Speaker 1: I think, right, maybe that might have been that's it,
Speaker 1: that's it, because you know we're not even imployed. I
Speaker 1: I think the joke is, like, you know, a thumbs
Speaker 1: up or a thumbs down. We're just doing straight thumbs
Speaker 1: as a numerical symbol, right. I like that. It could
Speaker 1: be a thumb in your hole exactly wherever you want
Speaker 1: to put it, wherever you want to put it. Too bad,
Speaker 1: they don't have a thumb in your butt hole emoji.
Speaker 1: I would be using the ship out of that thing.
Speaker 1: You could make one. There's there's a combo that would
Speaker 1: indicate that. I think she's an asterisk and then a thumb,
Speaker 1: and that implies that, you know, oh yeah that's a
Speaker 1: that's a Kurt Vonnegut thing. Yeah, yeah, there's a whole.
Speaker 1: There's a thing in Breakfast of Champions there's a page
Speaker 1: with like an asterisk and it says this is a
Speaker 1: butt hole or something, and yeah, yeah, the asterisk is
Speaker 1: the universal symbol for butth hole. Man no where. I'm
Speaker 1: for nine years old now, and I did not know
Speaker 1: that an astros was a butthole, but now to see
Speaker 1: it though, right, totally a little starfish. He's a little
Speaker 1: starfish or a star fruit, yeah that too, or or
Speaker 1: or an anis like you know, a star I actually
Speaker 1: thought about that. Do you think that's it's called annis
Speaker 1: because it looks like an anus? I don't know. Or
Speaker 1: is it pronounced a nice? Do you try to get
Speaker 1: away from that by pronouncing it a nice? So that
Speaker 1: sounds a little bootie a niece is what I've heard,
Speaker 1: But that's probably just because people don't want to say anis.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? I personally love saying anis.
Speaker 1: That's that's one of my go to words. So maybe
Speaker 1: that should be our little foe band name Anus. No
Speaker 1: no one will take it. Then, no one will take
Speaker 1: it seriously serious heart music, chuck come only. I did
Speaker 1: not support that one necessarily. What should we call ourselves?
Speaker 1: I don't know. We'll figure it out. Le's let's take
Speaker 1: a poll. Crushers can name us. They'll name us something stupid.
Speaker 1: That's a good idea. I'll put a post up about that.
Speaker 1: I think people hands down, we'll vote for just Anus.
Speaker 1: How about have a anis the band not to be
Speaker 1: confused with an actual anis. That's good, or Anus maximus.
Speaker 1: That's pretty good. Alright, let's finish up here. Is that
Speaker 1: just like a really big anus? The most maximum of
Speaker 1: anus is the most maximum anus. A couple more recommendations here, Anne,
Speaker 1: Marie Bermudez Medina, great name there Fidelity. I've not seen
Speaker 1: the high Fidelity TV show yet. Show right, there's a
Speaker 1: show I would. I would too. I love the movie.
Speaker 1: I loved it, and I love Zoe Kravitz. I like it.
Speaker 1: I'll check it out and then Finally, we'll finish up
Speaker 1: here with let Me Go with Emily Moultrie. Here she
Speaker 1: says The Good Fight four thumbs out of five. Uh,
Speaker 1: don't know the Good Fight. The Good Fight is the
Speaker 1: CBS all access only streaming sequel to the Good Wife
Speaker 1: with Julianne Margolis, and uh uh it's I loved that show.
Speaker 1: I don't typically go for those kind of legal you know,
Speaker 1: what do you call it, procedural kind of drama, tase
Speaker 1: or whatever, but I really really like that one a lot.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, look at you know, spread your wings.
Speaker 1: Haven't seen the Good Fight, but um, it's apparently quite good.
Speaker 1: I also don't need another subscription, chuck. I resent being
Speaker 1: wrangled into buying a piecemeal subscription for every fucking network
Speaker 1: on the under the sun. I really, uh it's too much.
Speaker 1: It's overload. But no, this is what everyone clamored for
Speaker 1: forever was. I don't want to pay for all those
Speaker 1: cable channels. I want all the card You want to
Speaker 1: go pick up my channels, and now you don't want that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess you're right. I don't know what I don't agree. Well,
Speaker 1: I know, I just keep collecting them and forgetting that
Speaker 1: I have them, and the trick is that they're so
Speaker 1: cheap that you don't notice, and they all come out
Speaker 1: at ferent times. But if you really added it all up,
Speaker 1: you're probably playing. Probably playing. You're probably paying more than
Speaker 1: you would for like a normal cable subscription. You know,
Speaker 1: I've done the math on what we have, and we
Speaker 1: are still below what we paid for cable. Okay, well
Speaker 1: maybe I'll get on that math. Get on the math,
Speaker 1: no whole. I need to get on that math train, Chuck.
Speaker 1: All right, everyone, there's a bunch of great recommendations, so
Speaker 1: go to the movie crush page, check out the post
Speaker 1: for TV binging and uh and share your thoughts and
Speaker 1: get recommendations from others. That's all we are gonna do
