00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: On the beck Doll Cast, the questions asked if movies

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 1: have women in them, are all their discussions just boyfriends

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:11,639
Speaker 1: and husbands, or do they have individualism? The patriarchy? Zef

4
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 1: invest start changing it with the beck Del Cast. Hello,

5
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: Becdel Cast listeners. Oh my god, I almost just like,

6
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: for some reason, I was going to start singing that

7
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,920
Speaker 1: being the song. I was like, Okay, we've did our countdown.

8
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: We're like one, two, three, four or five past. Oh wow,

9
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,560
Speaker 1: if we did that, that would be actually really fucked up.

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: If we did that. Well, look, my voice, as you

11
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: might be able to tell listeners, is it doesn't sound

12
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 1: quite like myself. I'm a little sick at the moment. Sick.

13
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: Oh sexy, what stop it? Sorry, you're gonna refort me

14
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: to hrfort me to Jack O'Brien, I dare you? Um,

15
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is I don't know how that will

16
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 1: affect my amazing, beautiful, perfect singing voice being sick. So

17
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: it's true, So we better not. But what we are

18
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: going to do today is answer some questions in a

19
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,199
Speaker 1: Q and I episode, which we've done in the past.

20
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,759
Speaker 1: It's kind of become a yearly tradition that we kick

21
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: off the new year with a Q and I episode

22
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: answering questions that our matrons have submitted. So thank you

23
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: to all the matrons who submitted a question. Yeah, we're

24
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: not going to have time to answer all of them

25
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 1: because we're so popular and we've got so many questions.

26
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: Sorry everybody, but but um we're gonna answer a few

27
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: of them. And that's how we kick off. I love

28
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 1: our Q and A episode. It's it's a time of traditions,

29
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: you know. We we released our Grace Freud episode on

30
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: the Santa Clauses. Is that Grace at the show last

31
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: night and we were really reflecting on how we are

32
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: going to be doing a fifth one of those episodes.

33
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: It kind of like I can't believe the bone chilling

34
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: in a way. Um, but a lot of traditions, you know,

35
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: kind of like really hit you in the marrow of

36
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 1: your existence. Sure. Well, as we discussed on that episode,

37
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: we're not quite certain if this is a tradition or

38
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: a curse. So it's true. I mean, but I do

39
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,679
Speaker 1: love um being cursed by things. It makes me happy.

40
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 1: It's reassuring at times, that's true. Yeah, it reminds you

41
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: that you're alive. It when you think about it. Doesn't

42
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: it though? Doesn't it though? I? Yeah, yeah, all right, um, okay,

43
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 1: shall we get into it? I was like, I guess

44
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: we don't really need to tell people what the Bachtel

45
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: test is today, Like it's this week, honey, look it up. Yeah.

46
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: Plus we are going to be passing it so much

47
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: in this by answering these questions, can we start with

48
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: just like, I just want to know. I'm like, I

49
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 1: just want to tell you something. I was like, how

50
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: can I make this a part of the show. I

51
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: just wanted to tell you something. I saw a ska

52
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 1: band last night, A ska band. I skanked. It was awesome.

53
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: It was so cool, and it was feminism. And you

54
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: know why why the vast majority of the horn section

55
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: were women? Oh no kidding. We had a woman on

56
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: the trump bone. We had a woman on the trumpet.

57
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: It was very thrilling. I am now really like, you know,

58
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 1: much like many things, I feel like Scott Scott is

59
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: going to make a comeback. You can really quote me

60
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: on that. I saw a cool ska band last night

61
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: and and and people were like, are you gonna skank

62
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: or what? And I was like, is that the verb

63
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: to wait, what does to skank mean? Oh, we're having

64
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: a moment um, it's uh skank. It's like the dance

65
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,839
Speaker 1: well now I sound it's like the dance that Scott do. Um.

66
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: It's sort of just like really performative, low kicking um,

67
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 1: but you can do. You do it in the kind

68
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: of like a pit situation and it's just like a

69
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: bunch of friendly kicking and you know, the time registers

70
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: doing what it's doing. Okay, So like the Charlie Brown dance,

71
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: isn't that how the Peanuts characters. I don't know the

72
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: SKA community would feel about you saying that, Caitlin, but

73
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sure that's very reductive. But it's not

74
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,799
Speaker 1: unlike that. But it's more like intense. It's pretty fast,

75
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: but it is just kind of like bad dancing. But

76
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: like when people are into it, you're like, maybe this

77
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 1: is good. And I and I did that bit that

78
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: I have with the egg where I eat the egg familiar,

79
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: thank you so much. Listeners remain in the dark. Um.

80
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 1: But the guy brought up bassist in the SKA band,

81
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 1: so they're also allies to me doing the egg bit.

82
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: Ska is feminist and I just wanted to let you

83
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: know that. Okay, I'm glad to hear it, and then

84
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: can I tell you something? Yeah, of course, I don't

85
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: know if I'll follow through on this, but I think

86
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,159
Speaker 1: in the new year I want to take a burlesque

87
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: class and then get into burlesque. That's so, that's amazing.

88
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: What if you did burlesque and I played the trombone,

89
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: we could do Oh, I could play for you. That

90
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: would be perfect. You could do rose do itpy cater burlesque,

91
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: and then I would play my Heart Will go On

92
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: on the trombone. Yes, that wouldn't be cursed. Wait, that's

93
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: so amazing. Are there classes like locally? I guess I

94
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 1: would imagine their I I think so, yeah, because I

95
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 1: don't know what I'm doing. I don't know how to

96
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: do burlesque, but it's an art for us, so I

97
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: have to learn. And so if anyone has any tips

98
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: on how to do burlesque or play the trombone, if

99
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: anyone's trying to get rid of a trombone, um, I'm

100
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: in the market for one. I feel like if I

101
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: have of trombone like around, at some point, I'm gonna

102
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: have to pick it up. You know like it's acquiring

103
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: the traumbone is half the battle, and then finding a

104
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: good traumba to you if you're a local l a trombonus.

105
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'll stick with this, but it

106
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 1: was just so inspiring to um see so many women

107
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: in the SKA band. Anyways, Okay, queues and as here

108
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: we go, starting with a question from Alex. Hi. Alex asks,

109
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,559
Speaker 1: y'all sometimes talk about how watching movies for the show

110
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 1: changes your perspective on them. Along similar lines, has doing

111
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: the show changed your perspective on films in general? If so,

112
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 1: in what ways? Oh? I would say for me, the

113
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: show has made me realize that so few movies are

114
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: ones that I could ever vouch for in terms of

115
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: does this hold up when looking at it through an

116
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:01,679
Speaker 1: intersectional feminist lens? Because I think the average nipple skill

117
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: writing we give out is like one pull out of five.

118
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: Maybe too, I would say, maybe too, because we've we've

119
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: been covering like better movies as the show went on. Yeah,

120
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: we used to be strictly, strictly a hater. This used

121
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 1: to be strictly a hater zone, but grew up. But

122
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: I still love movies. I still I always have, I

123
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: always will. I don't think anything's ever gonna change that.

124
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: So even though nearly every movie ever made is a

125
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: disaster at least when it comes to intersexual feminism, it's

126
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: still a medium that I adore so and I don't

127
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: know what that says about me, but I'm always going

128
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: to love movies. Beautiful Yeah for me, I like it

129
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: definitely has changed my perspective, but even like a life,

130
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: like even throughout the course of the show, it has

131
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,239
Speaker 1: changed my perspective in like more nuanced ways as things

132
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: went on, because as as fun as it always will

133
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: be to be like, yeah, this is just like not good.

134
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: This is like a hateful use of media. But as

135
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: time goes on, you know, and and we cover movies

136
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: that have like more kind of shape, Like I guess,

137
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: it's been interesting too. Now I feel like I approached

138
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: like you, there's like different ways to approach the movie,

139
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 1: and in some ways you can appreciate it more and

140
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: in other ways, like it is not as fun of

141
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: a watch, like I guess, I used to watch movies

142
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: on one setting, but now I have like an appreciation

143
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: for being able to like watch movies on more than

144
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: one setting, and and had that be okay, you know,

145
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 1: because it used to I feel like I used to

146
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: be like movie good or movie bad, and it's like, well,

147
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: there's a lot of different ways, and you know, everyone

148
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: is their own person. Some movies are just like straight

149
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 1: up sucking bad. But I've enjoyed kind of like training

150
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: myself to like seek out context and like try to

151
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: understand a little better if a movie is like challenging

152
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: me and not just like clearly shitty or clearly amazing,

153
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: to kind of like seek out more context and figure

154
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: out like what time was this coming out in, Like

155
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: where was the writer and the filmmaker coming from, and

156
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: like how does that kind of And I feel like

157
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: on our show that's kind of like skewed us in

158
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: both directions towards a movie where there's like some movies

159
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: were giving the benefit of the doubt, and then we

160
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 1: learn more about it, we're like, oh no, we were

161
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: being too nice, never again, and then other times, um

162
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: the opposite, we're like, Okay, clearly this like missed, but

163
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 1: the attempt was at least somewhat sincere or whatever. And

164
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: I think it's also changed the way that I write,

165
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 1: hopefully for the better. I think for the better. UM,

166
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: and just like the way that I approach characters, and

167
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: it's nice to kind of have the Bechdel track in

168
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: your head to make sure that you're giving everyone the

169
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: space they need in the story. That's my answer, Alex, Yes, M,

170
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: thanks for asking it. Our next question comes from Catherine High. Catherine, UM,

171
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: A lot of movies lately are experimenting with subverting tired

172
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: old movie tropes. Are y'all noticing any of these recent

173
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: tropes of versions that are becoming tropes of their own? Um?

174
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 1: One comes to mind right away, which is like forced

175
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: villain Redemption arc. Don't like it. Don't like I mean,

176
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 1: I don't even know how that how much that has

177
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: to do with feminism or intersectionality. I just don't like it.

178
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: And I miss pushing the villain off of a cliff,

179
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 1: which I know before, but actually it does connect to

180
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: the episode that came out last week on the Santa Clauses,

181
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: where I feel like it's become I think especially in

182
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 1: Disney properties, but kind of across media in general, like

183
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: it's become so normalized to be like I get started

184
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: by coming from a sincere place. I'm trying to think of,

185
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: like what big movie would have kicked this off, but

186
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: like coming at a villain character with empathy, it might

187
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: have been even like Wicked or something like that. Like

188
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: coming at a classic villainous character with empathy and trying

189
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: to understand things from their point of view. I think

190
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 1: that that is like a sincere thing at the beginning,

191
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: but now it's just like I mean, in the Santa Clauses,

192
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,079
Speaker 1: for example, you just have like a guy who's straight

193
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: up a bad guy. The cow Penn character is like

194
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 1: a Jeff Bezos villain, but the movie, but the movie

195
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: that whatever Avatar length miniseries is like doing fucking Olympic

196
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: gymnastics to try to like redeem him, because that's just

197
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: like what you do now. And I feel like it

198
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: can really like go the other way in a very

199
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: uncomfortable way. I don't know, Like there's movies where it's

200
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 1: super works, and then there's other movies where it just

201
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: feels like, oh, this is what we do now. So

202
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: I'm going to write a truly despicable horror character and

203
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: then just have everyone forgive them at the end, even

204
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: if they are like Jeff Bezos human rights abuse. Like

205
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: You're like, but we don't need to forgive that guy.

206
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: We just don't. There are some people we need to

207
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: forgive in movies, and I like that, but others not

208
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: as much. Right, I have complicated feelings about it because

209
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 1: I think that it's important that depending on the person

210
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 1: and their crimes, redemption like their crimes is a huge thing,

211
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: because it's like, you know, right, like the society would

212
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: be a better place. You just reminded me of what

213
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: Searchharonan saying women and little the My my cold is

214
00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: affecting my cognitive functioning. But what I'm trying to say

215
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 1: is redemption is possible for some people, and I, like,

216
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 1: I don't know, I want to like create space for

217
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: people who, you know, if they if they do what

218
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,320
Speaker 1: they need to do to redeem themselves and their and

219
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: their crimes aren't so heinous that they could possibly deserve redemption.

220
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: Like that's a message that I think should be put

221
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: out into aforementioned society, especially in kids media, because there's

222
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 1: so many like tropes that villainized marginalized people in a

223
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: way that is like absolutely fucked up and needs to

224
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: be re examined. I think it's just like that as

225
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 1: a trope that also applies to like people who are

226
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: fucking capitalism ng the hell out, Like you're just like, yeah,

227
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: I struggle with it. Yeah, for sure, it's also kind

228
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 1: of boring. Another trope I've noticed is movies and TV

229
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 1: and media in general. Um, I mean, we have noticed

230
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: more diverse casts in terms of race, gender, sexuality, and

231
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 1: things like that, but because so much media is still

232
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: made by rich, powerful white men, it's clear that this

233
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: inclusion only is happening because these guys are tired of

234
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: people challenging them. So there's there is like more diversity,

235
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: but a lot of it isn't good or meaningful, or

236
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: it's clear that they didn't consult anyone about these characters. Oftentimes,

237
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: these characters are very flat, underdeveloped people who behave in

238
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: ways that make no sense, and they are just there

239
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 1: to like fill a quota more or less. Yeah, which

240
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: is like like I like, arguably worse. Like I mean, yeah,

241
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, like the yardstick they're really but like

242
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: it's that's diabolical to do like higher talented people and

243
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: then be like, but I'm just doing this so people

244
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: leave me alone. It's like a fucking character do your job, man,

245
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: for sure. So yeah, I also find that frustrating. I

246
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: think we may be uh the gender swapped reboot maybe

247
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 1: on its on its dying legs. I think we may

248
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: really well and truly be done with it. Yes, what

249
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: I hope happens. In addition to like what we always

250
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: talk about with more movies, and I think in the

251
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: time this show, like you're just saying the time the

252
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: show's existed, there's been an increase in diverse storytelling and

253
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 1: it's been getting better. But I also hope that it's

254
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: like that makes way for more original storytelling to it

255
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: feels like it's kind of on the upswing. We got

256
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: her everything everywhere all at once, like we're chilling. It's good,

257
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: but like, I hope that that kind of keeps moving. Also, unrelated,

258
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: hope that, um that short movies come back. If short

259
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: that would say that is a trope that every movie

260
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: is three hours long now and I will allow it

261
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 1: when it's r R R, which I'll talk about later,

262
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: but why is every other movie so long? It's complicated

263
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: stopping even when movies I like are long, I'm like,

264
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: come on, um, Yeah, I hope that the eight seven

265
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: minute movie makes come back. Wouldn't that be cool? And

266
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 1: then then you could go to double features without like

267
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: your fucking organs rupturing. It would be cool. Um without

268
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: your intestines exploding. Call back to while you were sleeping, Oh,

269
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: Matreon head over, Yanna, listen to Sandra Boogs Boss talking

270
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: about his mother's organs exploding when she met his wife

271
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: was an amazing time for writing. Um. Yeah, I think

272
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: that I'm trying to think of other I think those

273
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 1: are maybe we'll think of more later. I know that

274
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,959
Speaker 1: there's a bunch that are kind of prevalent right now.

275
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: I think it's like a lot of them boiled down

276
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 1: to people attempting more inclusion and diversity in storytelling and

277
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: not getting it quite right because they are like coming

278
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: from places of extreme privilege and aren't bothering to consult

279
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: or like hand the reins to someone else who can

280
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: tell those stories more meaningfully. So agree anyway, Um, let's

281
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: take a quick break and then come back for some

282
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: more questions and we're back. Next question comes from Jacqueline

283
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: asks do you feel like the era of Prestige TV

284
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 1: slash limited anthology series does a better job of representing

285
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 1: women and diverse voices on camera and do you have

286
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 1: theories as to why or why not? For example, I

287
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 1: think that the way streamers produce TV shows allow diverse

288
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 1: creators to make their art, and having longer character arts

289
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 1: in general seems to let women have more depth. These

290
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 1: points both have their negative counterpoint um and Yeah, I

291
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 1: think you're already touching on a lot of why this is.

292
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 1: And I I don't watch a ton of TV. I'm

293
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: definitely more of a movie person. But the nature of

294
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 1: TV just generally does allow for more in depth character development. However,

295
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 1: TV is still full of regressive tropes, maybe not as

296
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: many today. I do think that a lot of media

297
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: again is like trying to avoid that stuff, um, for

298
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: better or worse. And I also think that because TV

299
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 1: is ongoing, usually with multiple seasons, it gives creators and

300
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 1: writers a chance to course correct as the series goes

301
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: on m based on responses from fans usually, but it

302
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: always comes down to who is behind the camera, who's

303
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: in the writer's room, who's making these creative choices about characters. Yeah,

304
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: I have like a lot. I don't. I have a

305
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: lot of opinions on TV. I love TV. I've worked

306
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:46,439
Speaker 1: in TV for five years now, brag Binkie, but mostly

307
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: in animation, but I feel like there's I agree with Jacqueline,

308
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 1: there is more, I think more diversity in general. Then

309
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 1: TV is also so fraud Like I think that there's

310
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: a lot of amazing shows that are uh from women

311
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: and people call her and queer people. There's there's simply

312
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: just more of them than there are in movies. But

313
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: because of how streaming works, it's so fraught, and I

314
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: feel like sometimes things just go away and it feels

315
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 1: like sometimes it's like, Okay, we'll give you one season,

316
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 1: and like the same problems kind of exist where you know,

317
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:27,400
Speaker 1: like a show by you know, a notable white man,

318
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: even if it kind of sucks for one season, they'll

319
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 1: get a second season to find their voice and do

320
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: all this stuff and blah blah blah. Where like in movies,

321
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: and we talked about this a lot with with marginalised

322
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 1: directors of like if you have one movie that doesn't

323
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 1: do great financially or critically, you could be kind of done,

324
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: and like that also bears out in TV quite a bit.

325
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 1: But I do feel like there's a lot to be

326
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: excited about, like you know, absolutely Broken Record being like

327
00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,400
Speaker 1: Abbot elementary, but like for real abbot elementary, like it's

328
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: the fucking cool Like, it's the funniest show on TV. Um,

329
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: there's so many good shows at right now, but Okay,

330
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 1: a show that sticks out to me is like The

331
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: Gordita Chronicles, which was a really cute shell It was

332
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 1: really good. It was on HBO Max. It is a

333
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:19,199
Speaker 1: Latin focused show and it's from Latin creators, but they

334
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: were only given one season and not only was the

335
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 1: show canceled, it's being pulled from HBO Max because of

336
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 1: all this evil corporate ship that's going on right now.

337
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: That makes it really really hard for because of how

338
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,359
Speaker 1: streaming works, like, it makes it so hard for like,

339
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 1: even though there's more opportunities I think technically on paper

340
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: in TV for um for marginalized creators than in movies,

341
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 1: it's way easier to like short change and disappear that

342
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: same media. Like why isn't Rutherford Falls getting a third

343
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: fucking season? Are you joking? Like it's ridiculous and it

344
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: makes me um piste off obviously, but there is so

345
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: much to love about what's on TV right now, and

346
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: I really I don't know and that, but but there's

347
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: like sorry, I'm like, she's still going. There's also tropes

348
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: within like Prestige TV right now, that's kind of exhausting

349
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,919
Speaker 1: to where it's like, you know, I know that a lot.

350
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 1: I mean I watched some of them. I'm Succession fan

351
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: number one. I've got my Waistar Roy co hat in

352
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 1: the other room, don't you forget it. I had hot

353
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 1: coffee this morning out of my we here for you

354
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 1: mug um. Yeah. Like I but there are so many

355
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: shows right now about rich people being bad and then

356
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: but then the the underlying message is like capitalism bad.

357
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 1: But isn't it kind of sick to watch? And like

358
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: I think that's I don't know if that started with Succession,

359
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: but like Succession is so fucking good that I feel

360
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: like that is a huge trend right now. That kind

361
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,439
Speaker 1: of I feel like it's like, well, it's technically anti

362
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 1: capitalist because we're making fun of rich people, so we

363
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: should be able to just do this and then we

364
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: could still have all white, rich traditionally hot casts and

365
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 1: it's like, well you can do that, and sometimes I

366
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: will watch it, but like you know, clocked, I see it. Um,

367
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think that that is. I think people

368
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 1: should watch what we do in the Shadows and p

369
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: Valley and succession, and that's what I have to say

370
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 1: about it. Also stopped making really boring true crime adaptations.

371
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 1: Enough enough, I should have played Elizabeth Holmes. Okay, yeah,

372
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 1: I agree, and that's my problem. All right, UM, Sorry

373
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 1: that was I hope that answered the question. UM. Also animation,

374
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: look at look at how animation is unionized. And when

375
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,160
Speaker 1: I say that, I mean it's not unionized. A fun

376
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 1: fact about animation writers, they are not allowed in the

377
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,679
Speaker 1: w g A. Why we durable not that they're not allowed,

378
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 1: but like very few animated shows are. I've been working

379
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: in TV for five years and I'm not in the

380
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: w g A because I work at animation ridiculous. So

381
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: there's a lot of like evil shit afoot, and it's

382
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: it's good to know about. Um if you're a media consumer,

383
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 1: it's depressing to know about. But it's interesting in a way,

384
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: especially if it doesn't affect your health insurance. So let's

385
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: take another question. This one is from Deirdre, but we

386
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: got similar questions from several different matrons. Are there any

387
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 1: movies that you absolutely will not cover even if they

388
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: are requested by listeners, whether it's because they are so bad,

389
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 1: treat marginalized people, so poorly or wouldn't lead to much discussion.

390
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 1: I want to know which titles are in the Bechtel

391
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 1: cast trash bin Oh. I was thinking about this, and

392
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's any movie that is completely

393
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 1: off limits to me. There are some that I think, wait, well, okay,

394
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,880
Speaker 1: so I will maybe protest and be like, I don't

395
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: want to cover Hereditary But I said the same thing.

396
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: But I said the same thing about Midsummer and we

397
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: covered that on the Matreon. Yeah, I've definitely covered movies

398
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 1: I wasn't stoked about, but like, I feel like that

399
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 1: usually makes for a pretty interesting episode. It's true. Um, yeah,

400
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 1: I mean there are definitely movies that I am not

401
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: thrilled about or that I don't want to rewatch because

402
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 1: they made me feel horrible the first time. But I

403
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 1: think that that just means that, yeah, it'll inspire an

404
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: interesting conversation and yeah, and it's our duty to cover it. Then.

405
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: I actually I'm looking at the next question, which feels

406
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: should we just roll in this next question because I

407
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: feel like it's relevant. The next question is from Oliver.

408
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: Is there still an embargo on covering Master of Disguise?

409
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 1: I would say I don't really want to cover that

410
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 1: movie at this point because it's like I feel like

411
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: that's an I don't know, like how to category. I mean,

412
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: I guess it's a lot of comedy movies honestly that

413
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 1: are aging poorly. But like, I think that people developed

414
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 1: an ironic appreciation for that movie, myself included back in

415
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: the day. But when you watch it on becteal cast terms,

416
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 1: it's like so unforgivably bad that like I don't even

417
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 1: want to really give it air time. Like it's like

418
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: Dana Carvey appears in Brown Face, Like it's a funked

419
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: up movie. And I think that there are certain things

420
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 1: that like can provoke interesting discussions, And then I feel

421
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: like there's other movies that it's like, oh, we're just

422
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 1: you know, kind of digging this movie up from the

423
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 1: grave to point out how bad it is, which I

424
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: feel like it's like not a productive something. Yeah, something

425
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 1: like Master of Disguise, which has no legacy to speak of.

426
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 1: It's not as though people are still like I ride

427
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 1: or die for Master of Disguise. I think it's they're

428
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 1: out there. I think it's important to have conversations about

429
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: movies that include really awful stuff like just you know,

430
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: horrible racism and homophobia and transphobia and things like that.

431
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 1: But that I think is more important to do for

432
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 1: movies that still are like in the cultural zeitgeist, the

433
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: daily zeitgeist. Maybe it's yeah, where it doesn't make sense

434
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 1: to do that for a movie that no one remembers,

435
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 1: such as Master of Disguise, right, I mean, I guess

436
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: I could be talked out of it because I know

437
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: that like a lot of kids around our age saw

438
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 1: that movie like and so it could be interesting to

439
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: go back and be like, look at the like horrific

440
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: slop we were forced to consume and say thank you.

441
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 1: M Also, the name Pistachio disguise E is funny, so

442
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,719
Speaker 1: that's comedy. But I mean, I don't know that's an

443
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: example of something that I would be I feel like

444
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 1: we would. There are movies that we've had discussions before

445
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 1: we've decided to come for it to be like is

446
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 1: this like useful, is it funny? Like or what you know,

447
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 1: figuring out where those lines are? Okay, pitch, what if

448
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: we do a Matreon month it's Master of Disguise and

449
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: the Master or Master and Commander. Wow, so many Masters?

450
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: I can't think of any others but food for thought.

451
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: And I think outside of that, the only movies that like.

452
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 1: If there's like movies that you're like, why haven't they

453
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: covered that? And it seems like we would, it's probably

454
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 1: just because we know someone involved and like it. I

455
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: just don't want I just don't want to feel weird.

456
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: So if you're for wondering, that's likely. If it's a

457
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: more recent movie, it's likely. Why. Yeah, again, we're very

458
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: popular and we know so many people. Yes, the Madam's

459
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 1: of Hollywood over here. Wow. Okay, so our next question

460
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: comes from Katie asks. I loved your discussion in the

461
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 1: Good Fellows episode of movies that you didn't care to

462
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 1: watch because of the way people i e. Men talked

463
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: to you about them, And I immediately thought of Fight Club,

464
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: which I recently finally watched and hated. But would love

465
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: to know what other movies fall into this category for

466
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 1: you all, and what of those movies have you seen

467
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: and think are definitely worth watching? I have some thoughts. Okay,

468
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 1: this well, this is a little This is tricky for

469
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: me because of my already extremely dude bro taste in movies,

470
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 1: which is like, you don't need to. I feel like

471
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: you've apologized for it in the past, where it's like

472
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 1: you are who you argue that that's thank you. So

473
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: point being, I've already seen many of the movies that

474
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: men will try to insist that I need to see,

475
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: and I'm like, bitch, I've already seen that, and I

476
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: hate it. Um Because there are many that I have

477
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: that I've seen and that I hate so deeply. We've

478
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 1: covered some of them, but um Leon the Professional is

479
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 1: one that jumps to mind. I hate it so much.

480
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 1: Blade Runner, Yeah, I don't see the appeal the movie.

481
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 1: Heat Men are like heat Rocks, and I'm like, it's

482
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 1: so boring though a lot of like I mean, I

483
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: think that there's like, I don't know, like good Fellas.

484
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 1: I enjoyed that discussion because we were like good Fellas

485
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: heads and we also liked The Godfather. If you're not

486
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 1: on the fucking Matreon and you've been yelled at us

487
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: for years, we liked both those damn movies. We like

488
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 1: good Fellas better. Yeah, and we're right about that, but

489
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 1: that is the correct answer. Yes, But yeah, I feel

490
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: like there's like I'm trying to think of like a

491
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 1: dude bro movie that I avoided for a long time

492
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: that I'm on this list called men's gear dot Net. Uh,

493
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: I think that is it is kind of an interesting

494
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 1: thing where it's like fight club. I think we talked

495
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: about this back in the day. I also like, I

496
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: want to go back to that episode someday because I

497
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 1: feel like there's things that like. Because we did it

498
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: as a live show for some reason, we couldn't get

499
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: to everything, and I feel like I had more nuanced thoughts,

500
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: but was um kind of self editing because we have

501
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 1: to do an entertaining live show on top of having

502
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 1: a very complicated discussion, which is why our live shows

503
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 1: pluging our tour are now basically fun popcorny movie they're

504
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: goofy movies, such as a goofy movie. Um, I can't

505
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,239
Speaker 1: really think of any I think that, like honestly, all

506
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 1: my opinions are right. So actually, actually, Big Lebowski was

507
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 1: a movie that I avoided for a long time, and

508
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: I uh, it's a classic. It's awesome. Um, and I

509
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: resent that I was kept away from it. Yeah, yeah,

510
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: I wrote down that one. I think. I mean film

511
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 1: bros love the Cohen Brothers, and I think and I'm

512
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 1: a big fan as well. I like they're the best many,

513
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 1: if not most, of their films. Um, big Lebowski probably

514
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: being my favorite of them. Um. I would say a

515
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: couple of Tarantino movies are also ones that I think

516
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: are worth watching if you avoid Tarantino because of film

517
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: bros Telling you you gotta see their movies. Although honestly,

518
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 1: I think it's mostly just Kill Bill. I really love

519
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: Kill Bill. Yeah, I love kill but others I hate.

520
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: I hated The Hateful Eight. I think that's a kind

521
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: of common opinion, though I think that that's like people

522
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: are like, that's his worst one. Yeah, So I'm not

523
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: like saying anything profound here. Although I watched and I

524
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 1: was on a plane, so I was I was the

525
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: snake on the plane. But I I rewatched and Glorious

526
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 1: Bastards I hadn't seen since high school. I like, that's

527
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: a pretty good movie. I really liked that one. I

528
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 1: think holds up. On the other hand, once upon a

529
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 1: time in Hollywood, we didn't lose one of my least

530
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: favorite movies. I saw that year, so I have to

531
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: rewatch it. But I did not like it when it

532
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 1: came out. Um, a couple of others I would say

533
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: are worth watching Our Speed and Point Break, And while

534
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 1: they are both copaganda, they are fun romps and Keanu

535
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 1: Reeves is in them and he's a national treasure, so

536
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 1: he and national treasure although no one kept us from

537
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 1: no one kept us from National Treasure. Um. And then

538
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: my final one that we talked about in Good Fellas,

539
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: because I just am like, I guess I've always been

540
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 1: a fan of Martin Scorsese movies, but now I'm like,

541
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: maybe this could be my personality for a while. But

542
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 1: Wolf of Wall Street one of my favorite movies ever.

543
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: I feel like such a good capitalism critique. It's fun

544
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: to watch and everyone's good in it. Um. But but um,

545
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: you know, there's a certain contingency that take away the

546
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 1: wrong message and spoil it for people. But I think

547
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: it's um it's one of my favs, thing with American Psycho,

548
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: which we discussed on that episode from a while back.

549
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's it's always a matter of like, because

550
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: some of these movies are satire or have biting commentary,

551
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 1: but often the wrong message is taken away or the

552
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,399
Speaker 1: satire isn't very clear to begin with, so or it's

553
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 1: like poorly adapted which I think is like I don't

554
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 1: remember if we really talked about that in the fight

555
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:32,279
Speaker 1: Club episode, but I think that, yeah, like it kind

556
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: of like pings my brain for like how Lolita has

557
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 1: been adapted over the years, where like in the source material,

558
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,800
Speaker 1: I think the morality that the writer is trying to

559
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,880
Speaker 1: get across is very clear, but the adaptations lack that,

560
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 1: and I feel like the fight Club kind of falls

561
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 1: into that category in some ways. Yeah, I don't have

562
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 1: nuance thoughts on it at the moment, but um, yeah,

563
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: I'd be interested to kind of explore that idea more.

564
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: Thank you, Katie, You've opened my mind, You've opened my heart.

565
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 1: Two movies by men. Um, let's take another break and

566
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 1: then come back and answer a few more questions. We

567
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 1: are back, and I think it's time to answer some

568
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 1: super fun questions. Yeah, fun ones. First ones from Melanie.

569
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: What episode is gregg in from? I've listened to every episode.

570
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 1: I can't remember the origin. Well, Melanie from YouTube dot

571
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 1: com from we did not make it up? We did

572
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 1: not make it up. It is from a YouTube video

573
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 1: entitled It's Not Even. If you search the word gregnt,

574
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,720
Speaker 1: this video will come up. But the video is called

575
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: how is Prangent Formed? Like? Can we listen to it

576
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: together right now? It's so funny. So what it is?

577
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 1: It's it's like a bunch of like frantically typed typo

578
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 1: written um like answer websites like Cora and Yahoo Answers

579
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,839
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. It's just clearly like people who

580
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 1: think that they are pregnant, frantically asking a question on

581
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 1: the Internet and not checking their spelling, and it's just

582
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 1: the urgency of these typos. It's very funny. It's very yes.

583
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 1: So that's where gregnant is from. We first mention it

584
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: on the episode on the Rock with Miles Gray. So

585
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 1: it's because you and Miles knew about this video already

586
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 1: and you were you were giggling about Gregnant, and I

587
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: was like, what do you guys? Because I hadn't seen

588
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: the video at that point, and so you were in

589
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 1: on the joke. I was not. But now hopefully everyone's

590
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: in on the joke. We encourage you to watch this

591
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:02,320
Speaker 1: YouTube video How is Prangent Formed? A k a. The

592
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 1: Gregnant video? Kind of an Internet classic. It's fun and

593
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: and now full fucking circle Miles and his partner there,

594
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 1: So there you go. Wow, I know and should send

595
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:22,759
Speaker 1: I'm sorry and congregulations to them. We should really send

596
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 1: a onesie that says Greg. Yes, absolutely, whatever comes out

597
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 1: that baby is Greg exactly. Um. Our next question comes

598
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 1: from Forest. I'm so excited I get to read this one. Okay,

599
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 1: Forest says, bellow bellow for bellow to you two? Forest,

600
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 1: who is the most shreky in character in Titanic? And whomp?

601
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 1: Would the Minions hitch their banana wagon two on the Titanic?

602
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,320
Speaker 1: And then Forest says, sorry, if these questions have already

603
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: been answered, which is I really hope that there's sincere

604
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,800
Speaker 1: in saying that, because it's not out of the question

605
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,520
Speaker 1: that this would have come up on this true, Well,

606
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: it would have to be um Bruce, Okay, So I

607
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 1: think the Minions would would work for Bruce is may

608
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 1: or the iceberg. Okay, now we're talking because, as we've

609
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 1: discussed in past Minions episodes, it's minions cannon to avoid

610
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 1: historical monsters in historically recent memory that the that the

611
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 1: minions were frozen. They were were not frozen, but they

612
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 1: lived in the Arctic in a cave from like most

613
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 1: of the nineteenth century until the nineteen sixties. To avoid

614
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: a lot of horrible things. Um, they're like, well, the

615
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: minions weren't involved with that because they were in the

616
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 1: Arctic Circle at that time. They were busy with ice,

617
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 1: so they get ice, they know ice. They ice each other.

618
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 1: Probably remember when we used to ice each other and

619
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: drink spear enough ices aristotles a simpler time. Wow, And

620
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: that was also the Mike's Hard Lemonade era. It really was.

621
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: We've gone through We've gone through so many phases of

622
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:18,439
Speaker 1: this show. We've grown up to. I know, we've really

623
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 1: grown up together. I think it's nice. I'm drinking a

624
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:26,839
Speaker 1: saltzer right now. Are you joking? I'm drinking would never

625
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 1: drink water. Oh my god, that's just because I'm sick.

626
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:36,520
Speaker 1: But I was like, I'm glad we are hydrating more healthfully.

627
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 1: But okay, so I think I think the iceberg is

628
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 1: an excellent answer, and let's go with that. Is May

629
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: is a coward, and like the minions don't really vibe

630
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 1: with that. They work for dinosaurs and grew. So I

631
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 1: would say probably the iceberg is the right answer. As

632
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: for Shreky in that here here's my thinking. Okay, I

633
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:04,840
Speaker 1: think cal Hockley gives off some intense lord far Quad

634
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: vibes he is, Yes, yes, he is very far quad. Yes.

635
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:15,720
Speaker 1: But also I think Molly Brown it feels very shreky

636
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 1: in to me. I feel like Fabrizio has some shreky

637
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:23,840
Speaker 1: in qualities due to his fake exaggerated accent. Um, and

638
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,239
Speaker 1: how shreki in is that Mike Meyer is certainly not Scottish,

639
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:31,759
Speaker 1: you know, certainly not, so there's that um. And then

640
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: also I mean Rose Dowippycator, Fiona both kind of feisty redheads,

641
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 1: you know, so that is a bit shreky in, very shreky.

642
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: And I think Shrek and Fiona of different classes rich girl,

643
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 1: poor guy shreky exactly makes you think holy crap. Basically,

644
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: Shrek is an adaptation of Titanic. Are they ever on

645
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,560
Speaker 1: a boat? Is there a dragon and Titanic? Is there

646
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:04,320
Speaker 1: a donkey and Titanic? Yes? Yes and yes. Trying to

647
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 1: bear this out, it's Pinocchio and Titanic. Um, I think

648
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,800
Speaker 1: there are enough. Yeah. I think Molly Brown definitely shreky

649
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: and energy. I think the more exaggerated Titanic characters could

650
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: very easily be in track, which is many of them.

651
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 1: It's a very yeah. What's the what TV network. Their

652
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: tagline is something like we know characters, or like you're

653
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 1: mixing up TVs and t N t Kalin. It's characters welcome,

654
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: that's TBS. We know drama, that's TNT. Oh my god,

655
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 1: Oh good grief. Okay, so I guess I mean both

656
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 1: apply to Titanic. Titanic nose drama and characters are welcome

657
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: on the Titanic. We're holding two truths here. We've got

658
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:54,080
Speaker 1: TVs and TNT energy. Goodness, it's Titanic. I've a Titanic

659
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 1: is on t ANT all the damn time, for sure.

660
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,400
Speaker 1: I would say that. Yeah, I would say Jack not

661
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,720
Speaker 1: very shreky in, but the dynamic between Jack and Rose

662
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 1: has Shrek vibes to it. I feel like Rose do

663
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: Itplicator is in a tower of the mind, I mean

664
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 1: cerebral tower. She talks about how she's trapped in a

665
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 1: metaphorical prison. The whole love triangle honestly is shreky in.

666
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 1: Titanic is a very shreky in movie, is what we're

667
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 1: concluding it is. It is, And the minions would work

668
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 1: for the Iceberg, which is so funny. Oh can I

669
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 1: read a text? I had a text exchange with my

670
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: mom yesterday. That made me laugh so much because it's

671
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 1: the end of the year. Uh and my my mom's

672
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:42,200
Speaker 1: second grade teacher reminder listeners. And I also, Minion piled

673
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 1: her so hard this year that she's like, there's there's

674
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 1: something going on in her head. It's not quite right.

675
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 1: She had never seen a Minion movie. Took her to

676
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 1: see Rise of gru in Orlando over the summer, and

677
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 1: she's a new woman. She's got a new lease on life.

678
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,320
Speaker 1: So all her kids now are and she knows that

679
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 1: Kevin's my faith. So she had her kids draw me

680
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 1: some Christmas Kevin's here's one. Oh my gosh, that's so good.

681
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 1: I know second graders know how to draw Kevin. He's

682
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 1: their friend. But then she texted me, I told my

683
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,400
Speaker 1: kids this morning that you want to marry Kevin. Ha ha,

684
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 1: And for the record, had not said, but I replied,

685
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:26,720
Speaker 1: I do. He's a compassionate leader. And she said exactly,

686
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 1: We're Minion felt so hard. I love it, and her

687
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 1: one of her students got her Kevin chia pet. But

688
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 1: oh wait, do they have hippi have little strands of hair?

689
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: But they're not hippie. Kevin planted Okay, We're gonna have

690
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 1: to post some of these photos to them. It's so

691
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 1: the minions, you know, Happy holidays to to them. Well,

692
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:58,480
Speaker 1: speaking of the minions, our next question, Oh yeah, that

693
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 1: doesn't um take it away, Jamie. Oh, this is a

694
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:06,320
Speaker 1: question from Kelly favorite things you watched in two movies,

695
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:11,720
Speaker 1: TV docs, whatever? Also at least favorite. Um, Everything Everywhere

696
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 1: is probably my favorite movie of the years. Same but

697
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 1: but you got Rise of Group coming in hot right

698
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 1: behind it. That's what I'm saying. That's why I saw

699
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 1: Everything Everywhere three times in theaters. I saw a Group

700
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 1: two times in theaters, but in two states, which I

701
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 1: feel like isn't nothing. That's effort. It took. You got

702
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 1: to put an effort for that, and I sawed it. Wait,

703
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: I sawed at both city walks that's fucked up in

704
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,880
Speaker 1: Los Angeles and in Orlando. No kidding, I go to

705
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,399
Speaker 1: the Manon's house to watch that damn movie. Yeah. Those

706
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 1: are my top two. Nice I will add to that,

707
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:52,759
Speaker 1: are are Are? Which kind of going back to the

708
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 1: very first question, we answered as far as like perspective

709
00:44:56,760 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 1: on film in general, if that has changed? Um, because

710
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 1: the movie are are Are? While a flawless masterpiece. Um.

711
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 1: If we were to cover it on the Backtel cast

712
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 1: up well on the conversation about you know, the characterization

713
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 1: of women in the movie, UM would be it's it's laughable,

714
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:22,400
Speaker 1: it's not very um And yet I love the movie

715
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:28,040
Speaker 1: so so much. It's complicated at the point being sometimes

716
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,120
Speaker 1: I just have to like take off my back dol

717
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 1: goggles and I can still enjoy a movie. Sometimes I

718
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 1: put them back on. You know, it's all about and honestly,

719
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:40,480
Speaker 1: like we've talked about this before, but if we're just

720
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:44,680
Speaker 1: like going to the movies to watch a movie, we

721
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:46,760
Speaker 1: don't necessary at least I don't want to speak for you, Jamie,

722
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 1: but I don't necessarily have my back dol goggles on

723
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 1: or not in the same way that I would when

724
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 1: I'm like unless it's like egregious, Like if it's egregious,

725
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,280
Speaker 1: then exactly can't not. But yeah, no, I I agree

726
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,520
Speaker 1: sometimes you just I think, honestly, the most this is

727
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 1: not one of my favorite movies of the year by

728
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:08,040
Speaker 1: a long shot, but one of my favorite pieces of

729
00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,839
Speaker 1: media this year is the Harry Stytles quote. I feel

730
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 1: like it's so useful. It's the movie feels like like

731
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:18,879
Speaker 1: a movie movie and sometimes and now to transition into

732
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 1: Nicole kidman and we need that, all of all of us,

733
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:25,320
Speaker 1: that indescribable feeling we get when the lights begin to

734
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 1: dim and we go somewhere. Oh damn again, it's okay.

735
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna know the whole thing. Other movies

736
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:39,560
Speaker 1: I really liked this year, Turning Red and Pray, both bangers.

737
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 1: Both have seen in multiple times. The Woman King I loved.

738
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 1: I still haven't seen it. Oh you gotta see The

739
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 1: Woman King. Another one of my favorites was Marcel the

740
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 1: Shell with Shoes On. I still haven't seen it. I

741
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 1: gotta say, you little movie. At the time of this recording,

742
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: we have yet to see Puss in Boots, but I

743
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 1: think it's going to one of my favorite movies of

744
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 1: the year. And talk about a shreky In movie, Oh,

745
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 1: I I mean harder to get shreky in the net

746
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 1: unless it's Shrek five, which I can't fucking wait for.

747
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 1: Uh there's I'm looking at my AMC history so a

748
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,600
Speaker 1: documentary I really loved this year, and I think it

749
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 1: will probably. I think it's like it's like made the

750
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:20,399
Speaker 1: Oscars short lists and stuff. But it made me cry.

751
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:22,239
Speaker 1: We talked about it on the Matreon because there was

752
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 1: a guy behind me who was really rude about it.

753
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 1: But I was crying, cry, crying fire of love about

754
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:31,920
Speaker 1: two vulcanologists who are married and spoiler alert, they tell

755
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,799
Speaker 1: you in the trailer they die in a volcano. Um

756
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,760
Speaker 1: But it's a really beautiful story and I would recommend

757
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 1: watching it. I saw Nope twice. I had a good

758
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: time at Nope. And then also, this is not a

759
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:47,239
Speaker 1: movie from this year, but I saw ET in IMEX

760
00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 1: this year and it was I was crying so much.

761
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 1: It's such a I feel like I didn't really have

762
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 1: I think this is like a micro generational thing too,

763
00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:00,359
Speaker 1: but like I didn't have a ton of excite ment

764
00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 1: and love for ET as a kid, but watching it

765
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 1: as an adult, oh boy, I really love it and

766
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:10,000
Speaker 1: it it delivered. I also enjoyed Crimes of the Future

767
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,919
Speaker 1: because I love body horror. Um. Oh, I didn't see

768
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 1: that one, but every time I hear the title of

769
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 1: that movie, I'm reminded of another movie called Needle in

770
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:23,480
Speaker 1: a Time Stack. Do you remember this? Oh? Yes, we

771
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:26,000
Speaker 1: had a hell of it time with Needle and a

772
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 1: Time Stack. Did that movie come out do we know.

773
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,520
Speaker 1: I think so, but it was a blip because I

774
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:38,040
Speaker 1: and and speaking of amazing incredible movies that are awesome

775
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 1: and perfect, Moonfall was one of my favorite movies of

776
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 1: last year. Not because it's good, because it wasn't. But

777
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:49,960
Speaker 1: if you just want to watch a I Frankenstein level

778
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:55,600
Speaker 1: terrible movie, Moonfall is one to watch. You know what

779
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,440
Speaker 1: I liked. I liked Scream five. I liked five Cream.

780
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:00,759
Speaker 1: I thought that was a fun one. I'm trying to

781
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:06,239
Speaker 1: spread the love around genres. Sure, Barbarian I thought was

782
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 1: pretty fun. We had some notes for it, but I

783
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,399
Speaker 1: thought Morbarian was like a really yeah, like a really

784
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:16,840
Speaker 1: well done movie. I saw it twice. Enjoyed Bodies Bodies, Bodies.

785
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 1: I enjoyed UM. I wasn't wild about X, but I

786
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 1: did enjoy Pearl a lot. Sure, I didn't see either

787
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:27,759
Speaker 1: of them. I had had a fun time. I will

788
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:31,080
Speaker 1: see the third one. As far as TV, we mentioned

789
00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 1: a few shows the Rock and Roll Abbott, Elementary, Rutherford Falls,

790
00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:40,279
Speaker 1: also Reservation Dogs. I'll add to that list. Um. One

791
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,719
Speaker 1: of my favorite shows that came out I think this

792
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 1: year is We Are Lady Parts. Watched it people that

793
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:51,840
Speaker 1: it's so good. I highly recommend everyone check out We

794
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:56,400
Speaker 1: Are Lady Parts. It's about a group of women in

795
00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:00,959
Speaker 1: the UK, all Muslim women who are in a punk

796
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 1: band and it's awesome. I gotta watch it. I've been

797
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,720
Speaker 1: enjoying the sex lives of college girls. Oh, I gotta

798
00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:12,879
Speaker 1: watch that's a fun one. Um, I haven't been. I'm

799
00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:16,719
Speaker 1: kind of behind on TV right now, honestly, but there

800
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:19,200
Speaker 1: was one. I mean, I I always stay up on

801
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:22,799
Speaker 1: what we do in the Shadows. Always a classic, always delivers,

802
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 1: and you know, just for no reason, Like, there's some

803
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 1: really good TV shows coming out next year, and I'm

804
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:30,480
Speaker 1: just going to throw out a couple of titles. Um,

805
00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:33,480
Speaker 1: the fourth season of Star Trek Lower Decks is supposed

806
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:37,399
Speaker 1: to be like really amazing, and it's actually a really

807
00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:41,319
Speaker 1: good show. And if you are not into Star Trek

808
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 1: or like don't have a working knowledge and you're nervous

809
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:48,040
Speaker 1: about getting into the Star Trek Expanded universe, it's kind

810
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 1: of a great show to start with. It's an adult

811
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 1: animated comedy. But I guess that that's all I can

812
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:54,279
Speaker 1: really say about it. But I just like the first

813
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 1: few seasons are good, but I just like think that

814
00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:59,280
Speaker 1: the fourth season, something's gonna change, it's gonna be really special.

815
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 1: I want if it's because like a writer joins the

816
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 1: writer's room and really like elevates the show the particular writer.

817
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 1: I would not say that I did that, but I

818
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,239
Speaker 1: had a really good time. You should watch it and

819
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 1: Teenage Us in Asia. I just like love that room

820
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 1: so much, and it's created and written by majority women,

821
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 1: and it's so fun and you'll have you'll have a

822
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:27,799
Speaker 1: great time. It's on I think it's on HBO Max

823
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:32,239
Speaker 1: because it's an adult swimshow. Wow. As far as my

824
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:36,319
Speaker 1: least favorite things of this year, No Offense Till thor

825
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:39,400
Speaker 1: Love and Thunder, but I thought that was a turd.

826
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 1: I didn't see it. I didn't have fun at any

827
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 1: Marvel movies this year. I was like, I'm excited for

828
00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:48,920
Speaker 1: the New ant Man movie. I am genuinely excited for

829
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 1: that because Michelle Fibers in it. Yeah, like the cast

830
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,880
Speaker 1: Rocks and Jeff Loveness wrote the movie and he's so funny,

831
00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I believe in the New ant Man movie.

832
00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:01,480
Speaker 1: I didn't have a great year with Marvel movies this year.

833
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 1: I love like Sam Ramy directed the best movie of

834
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 1: all time Spider Man too, but doctor Strange just like

835
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:12,319
Speaker 1: I was confused, I was tired. I was like, oh god,

836
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:15,799
Speaker 1: there's a lot of space rocks like you know, also

837
00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:21,280
Speaker 1: Jurassic World dominions. If they had just had the courage

838
00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,840
Speaker 1: to do that. Yeah. Yeah, I was talking to Sarah

839
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: Marshall was like, it's just like never ceases to amaze

840
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 1: me that the last Jurassic Park movie is mainly about

841
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:35,120
Speaker 1: locusts and not dinosaurs. Wild. I didn't see it was

842
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,959
Speaker 1: such a turd um. Yeah, so those are the ones

843
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:42,160
Speaker 1: at the bottom of my list. I saw MORBs as

844
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:44,719
Speaker 1: a joke. It wasn't worth it. Jared Letto was like

845
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:47,839
Speaker 1: Jared Letto was genuinely a criminalis bad person And then

846
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,440
Speaker 1: a movie I was let down by from a director

847
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:53,759
Speaker 1: I like, and I'm excited for his nose for out too,

848
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,000
Speaker 1: but I didn't. I didn't like The Northman. It didn't

849
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,640
Speaker 1: do anything for me me either. I thought it was

850
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:05,200
Speaker 1: too violent. Whoa mom. That wasn't my I just thought

851
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:09,000
Speaker 1: it was like boring, and like Roberts is like not

852
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 1: a boring filmmaker. So I was just kind of like

853
00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:15,520
Speaker 1: they made the Vivich. He made the Vivich. He made

854
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:19,920
Speaker 1: the lighthouse. He makes like wild movies. So I don't know.

855
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 1: And I enjoyed Bandtrees of Inn Sharon. I think I'm

856
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,399
Speaker 1: gonna think I'll say it a second time. Band Trees

857
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:27,879
Speaker 1: of Ed Sheeran. Yeah, that was one of the ones

858
00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 1: I liked. It made me want to go back to

859
00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:33,200
Speaker 1: Ireland to visit my family. Oh my god, wait, I

860
00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,160
Speaker 1: have a wild As we're winding down this episode, I

861
00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:38,400
Speaker 1: have the weirdest story. I don't know if I told you,

862
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:40,400
Speaker 1: I tell you about the guy I met at the

863
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:45,880
Speaker 1: airport in Alaska who was like, we're related. No. So

864
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 1: I was in the airport and I called up to

865
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 1: the desk for some seating things. So they said my

866
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 1: full name and I was walking back and then there

867
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:56,759
Speaker 1: was like an Irish guy and he was like, I

868
00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:58,840
Speaker 1: can't do an Irish accent. I was about to go Australian.

869
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 1: He was like, is your last name Loftis? I was

870
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,320
Speaker 1: like yeah, and he's like, my last name is Loftis

871
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,520
Speaker 1: and he's Irish and you know, I'm mostly Irish and

872
00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:10,120
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, that's so wild. And he's like,

873
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:12,319
Speaker 1: you know, fifteen years older than me. And I was like, Oh,

874
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,320
Speaker 1: we're just having a conversation here. He's telling me about himself.

875
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,920
Speaker 1: I'm telling him about myself. The people at the desk,

876
00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 1: the Delta desk, they're loving it. They're like this is

877
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 1: so interesting and like, yeah it is. This is actually awesome.

878
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,239
Speaker 1: And he's like, oh we should. Like he said like

879
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:31,359
Speaker 1: Loftus is a rare last name, which I have since checked.

880
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:34,200
Speaker 1: I don't think that's actually true. Um, but I was

881
00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:36,680
Speaker 1: like he's from Ireland. I believe him, which is a

882
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:40,000
Speaker 1: weird instinct also, but I was just like he's like

883
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:43,400
Speaker 1: we might be distantly related, like give me your number

884
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:45,880
Speaker 1: and like I will blah blah blah blah blah. And

885
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:49,560
Speaker 1: then anyways, get on the plane. He immediately starts to

886
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 1: texting me so much and then makes a joke about

887
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,640
Speaker 1: like what if we had sex, And I was like,

888
00:54:56,640 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 1: never give a man your phone number, Jamie, wait, what

889
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,800
Speaker 1: what was the text? I received? And now like I

890
00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 1: haven't blocked his number because I love to choose violence.

891
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:11,359
Speaker 1: But he was going to Ireland and like I talked

892
00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:13,560
Speaker 1: to my dad for a couple like literally two minutes

893
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:15,480
Speaker 1: and he's like, yeah, we're definitely not related to that guy.

894
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:21,920
Speaker 1: But glad you enjoyed the airport. So he was like, hey,

895
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:26,440
Speaker 1: we're probably related. Should we have sex? That really that

896
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 1: is exactly what he was like, because okay, wait no,

897
00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna read the text. Um, this is a

898
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:36,560
Speaker 1: few texts down. It starts very friendly. He's like, so

899
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,120
Speaker 1: cool to meet you, blah blah blah. I was like, yeah,

900
00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,880
Speaker 1: that was really awesome, enjoy enjoy the flight. And he's like,

901
00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 1: there's a seat next to me. And I didn't reply um,

902
00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:46,320
Speaker 1: but then he said, you have the culture in you.

903
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,880
Speaker 1: You are female version of me, less facial hair, and

904
00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:52,000
Speaker 1: I was like, m texts are getting weird, but I

905
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:55,480
Speaker 1: reply just a little ha ha. The Loftiest brand is

906
00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:59,400
Speaker 1: strong trying to keep things friendly. He replies, would make

907
00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:02,160
Speaker 1: an awkward morning after waking up in same bed than

908
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:05,520
