Speaker 1: Toss Popcorn is a production of iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: Yes uh Hi, I'm Sienna Jacob and I'm Leanna Holsten,
Speaker 2: and welcome to Toss Popcorn, the podcast where two idiots
Speaker 2: watched every film on the AFI's one hundred Greatest American
Speaker 2: Movies of All Time, the very slightly less racist tenth
Speaker 2: Anniversary edition. That's what we were doing for quite some time,
Speaker 2: and now that we're finished with that, we are watching
Speaker 2: movies directed by women.
Speaker 3: This podcast is a safe Baba Duck for people who
Speaker 3: don't know anything about movies.
Speaker 2: Rape point. Today we're watching The Babba Duck.
Speaker 3: Doctor warning there will be spoilers about this Baba duck
Speaker 3: old film and great point.
Speaker 2: Again, it's now a proper noun, an adjective. Herb She's everything.
Speaker 2: She is kidding.
Speaker 3: The Baba Duck is obviously non binary. They are everything.
Speaker 2: Oh. I can't wait to talk to you about this movie.
Speaker 2: I have to talk. We must talk.
Speaker 3: But before that, Sianna, could I please hear your projection?
Speaker 3: Let's let's do it bad.
Speaker 2: My fucking music app. It is so the Babba Duck
Speaker 2: to come up on my music app instead of Hi, Leanna,
Speaker 2: this is cia. I'm about to watch laundry to watch
Speaker 2: the Baba Duke.
Speaker 4: I have seen this movie before, but it's been a
Speaker 4: long time. I predict that our protagonist lady gets scared
Speaker 4: by a top hatted.
Speaker 2: Monster on the ceiling. Yeah, I love you, goodbye. It
Speaker 2: was all coming back to me and I was like,
Speaker 2: I think that's right. Yeah, I think that's correct. Though
Speaker 2: there was so much I did not recall about this movie,
Speaker 2: Like I thought it was gonna be like this little
Speaker 2: like top hatted ghoul chasing her around the house like
Speaker 2: the whole time, and that's really not what it is.
Speaker 3: No, honestly, I wish that would have been.
Speaker 2: The sequel.
Speaker 3: Well, Sienna, here is my prediction for the Babba Duke.
Speaker 2: I would love to hear it.
Speaker 5: Hi, Sienna, it's Yanna. I'm about to watch the Baba Duck.
Speaker 5: I don't know anything about this except the Baba Duck
Speaker 5: is a queer icon. I predict I might, I might
Speaker 5: be very scared. And there's a child.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I forgot about that. It's about I literally forgot
Speaker 6: there was a kid there. Maybe they like got a friend,
Speaker 6: or they have to banish it, or maybe the Baba
Speaker 6: Duck is like.
Speaker 3: The kid's dad.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I love you by so you've never
Speaker 2: seen it? No, why did the queer community latch onto this?
Speaker 2: Uh this? Hmmm? You know, I think it was just
Speaker 2: so much less.
Speaker 3: I think it was less.
Speaker 2: Why and more why not? Yeah, totally totally, you know,
Speaker 2: And even upon saying that out loud, like I know why,
Speaker 2: I feel like, yeah, you.
Speaker 3: Know, let's let's call a spade a spade and content
Speaker 3: warning for the C word here. The Baba Duck serves
Speaker 3: cons it's true.
Speaker 2: What's to be true? Beyond they're wearing a top hat.
Speaker 2: They are jazz, the hand saying they are old, they
Speaker 2: are made, They are a cunty leathery icon. They don't
Speaker 2: do too much like they have some respect for themselves
Speaker 2: in terms of presentation, you know, like they aren't doing
Speaker 2: anything too like they're kind.
Speaker 3: Of just like, Yeah, the Baba Duck is jazz.
Speaker 2: The Baba is jazz. The Bobadock is actually quite a
Speaker 2: lot like Liza Minellie. If you step back, there's a
Speaker 2: lot they have in common. And there are people out
Speaker 2: there who knew that right away. Maybe there's time. Okay,
Speaker 2: though I had seen it, there was so much, like
Speaker 2: I said, I didn't remember the child and as soon
Speaker 2: as the child should have like, oh yeah, of course obviously.
Speaker 3: So every film in order to be spooky must have
Speaker 3: a child.
Speaker 2: We will discuss it, but after we say, after we talk,
Speaker 2: Hey girl, hey girl, you told me the first Oh
Speaker 2: I'm doing you first. Unfortunately, find is sorry, this is
Speaker 2: the first meal you've made for yourself in a week.
Speaker 3: Oh and we're outing that. Okay, just just air me
Speaker 3: on the pods worries. We actually will get to that
Speaker 3: on on my phone notes as well. Yes, I finally
Speaker 3: cooked the ingredients that I bought. It's so hard to
Speaker 3: cook the ingredients that you bought. It is because you
Speaker 3: buy them and then you are hungry immediately every day
Speaker 3: for something that doesn't require preparing ingredients.
Speaker 2: Totally.
Speaker 3: So finally today I cooked the ingredients that I bought.
Speaker 3: I want to say Monday totally. Well, to speaks to
Speaker 3: Saturday right now, it speaks to you. Oh thank you.
Speaker 3: We'll say that. Not a mental health thing at all.
Speaker 3: Well it doesn't know, but yes, I finally prepared a meal.
Speaker 3: I have energy. I'm sure you could hear in my
Speaker 3: voice in the prediction section that was pre shorking a meal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my god. Girl, it's the day.
Speaker 3: Sorry to date this episode, but it is currently the
Speaker 3: day after Valentine's Day, and my big plan was to
Speaker 3: hit the stores for the sales of the Sweet Genius
Speaker 3: of the Little Treats the morning after TM and I
Speaker 3: went straight to m and S, which is like the
Speaker 3: fancy grocery store, to buy their stupid Valentine themed chocolates
Speaker 3: and there was nothing.
Speaker 2: They threw them in the garbage.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know where the hell they
Speaker 3: put that. So because according to m Ands, it is
Speaker 3: the night before Easter right now, and a little bit
Speaker 3: of pancake mixed in, which is like a weird day
Speaker 3: in March where they have that they considered to be
Speaker 3: pancakes and they're not pancakes.
Speaker 2: That's so weird.
Speaker 3: It was so cursed. So I did that, and then
Speaker 3: I went to Waitrose, an also fancy store, to get
Speaker 3: their Valentine leftovers.
Speaker 2: Nothing.
Speaker 3: So when I went to Sainsbury's, the people's store, also nothing.
Speaker 3: And I texted my flatmate and I was like, the
Speaker 3: L the levels of L that I just took cannot
Speaker 3: be defined.
Speaker 2: That is crazy. That is crazy. It's like, oh, alone
Speaker 2: on Valentine.
Speaker 3: Whatever you know what's another What's what's the twenty eighth
Speaker 3: Valentines of doing that? We're that's old hat, we're used to.
Speaker 3: That's fine, we know how to do it. The the famously,
Speaker 3: the perk of being single on Valentine's Day is the
Speaker 3: day after you get to go buy all the candy
Speaker 3: for cheap.
Speaker 2: What That may be the only thing I've ever heard
Speaker 2: of America doing better? Uh huh, because they're there's always garbage.
Speaker 2: I yearned.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I was craving a CVS. Wow, I
Speaker 3: felt so at sea. That is so crazy.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 3: It was a moment where I was like, Wow, I
Speaker 3: really am in a foreign country. I'm in a foreign
Speaker 3: land because this what's happening is fucked.
Speaker 2: What's the point but the point of that? Did you
Speaker 2: go and look into their garbage cans their dumpsters? No?
Speaker 3: I think that would have been a step down too far.
Speaker 2: My head is in Bob a Duck world. Also, I
Speaker 2: just watched Hereditary on my birthday.
Speaker 3: For some reason, Wow, I was thinking about that movie
Speaker 3: while watching this movie.
Speaker 2: Have you ever seen that movie? No? But I've read
Speaker 2: the Wikipedia talks so much about how scary it is.
Speaker 2: I thought it was more just like a good movie.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I get confused about what's scary. Oh
Speaker 2: my god, I'm so excited to talk about this film
Speaker 2: with you. Anyway, Hey girl, Hey girl. It was just
Speaker 2: my birthday, belated birthday. I was so sick. I was
Speaker 2: very sick. I was in denial until yesterday was the
Speaker 2: first day. I was like, I need to just be
Speaker 2: in bed all day. I just have to. I've been
Speaker 2: sick for a very long time. But my birthday party
Speaker 2: was the night before my birthday. By the time it
Speaker 2: hit about ten pm, I was like, oh, I'm not
Speaker 2: just tired. Something is happening and I need to be
Speaker 2: in bed as soon as possible. And something has changed.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I don't think I told you this.
Speaker 2: I had to actually ask them to leave.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that happened to me and my flat might Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I put my pajamas on it two in the morning,
Speaker 3: I changed out of my party dress. I put my
Speaker 3: pajama a still I could.
Speaker 2: I could tell we were heading towards two in the
Speaker 2: morning territory because like, around eleven PM, someone went to
Speaker 2: get rolling papers for weed and I was like, I'm
Speaker 2: really happy. You feel safe for my home and another day.
Speaker 2: I would like love this to be like an up
Speaker 2: all night chatting thing, but I can tell I am
Speaker 2: dying and I need this to be done. So at
Speaker 2: a certain point I went, hey, guys, I'm going to
Speaker 2: bed in fifteen minutes, just so you know. You can
Speaker 2: do what you want. Yeah, but I'll be asleep in there.
Speaker 2: But what I didn't tell them was that I was
Speaker 2: dying because I think I was getting sick. And then
Speaker 2: on my birthday, Kelsey and I went to get pastries,
Speaker 2: which is great, but I was sitting in line for
Speaker 2: pastries and I was like, oh, oh, I can't be out,
Speaker 2: I can't be standing up. Oh, I can't be standing
Speaker 2: any more. And then I ate an egg burrito, but
Speaker 2: turns out I had a lot of ham in it,
Speaker 2: and something about the idea of ham really turned my
Speaker 2: stomach and I had to stop eating everything, and then
Speaker 2: I went to sleep.
Speaker 3: Oh but welcome to twenty eight. To mama, yeah, every
Speaker 3: day is exactly like that.
Speaker 2: I'm kidding. You were just ill. I was very ill,
Speaker 2: but I'm still not. I'm getting over it now, but
Speaker 2: you can tell I have sick voys.
Speaker 3: But you know, oh, Sienna, Papa, could you please ba
Speaker 3: ba ba ba bad bade. Could you please give us
Speaker 3: a synopsis of the Babadke?
Speaker 2: Yes, this is pretty literal, and I apologize Baba Duke.
Speaker 2: The Baba Duke, Amelia struggles to manage the loss of
Speaker 2: her late husband, who died the day her son, Samuel
Speaker 2: was born, about seven years ago. It starts to affect
Speaker 2: the family by this point, and Samuel is being a
Speaker 2: really weird kid who is obsessed with monsters and weapons.
Speaker 2: The two of them find a picture book about a
Speaker 2: scary top hatted monster called the Baba Duke. It takes
Speaker 2: over their home and then Amelia when she lets him
Speaker 2: in one day, sorry, when she lets them in one day,
Speaker 2: the Baba Duke really makes everything horrible and Amelia becomes
Speaker 2: so scary. In the end, they learn to manage the
Speaker 2: Baba Duke just as one manages grief, and she and
Speaker 2: her son finally become close and at peace. The end. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that ending was so girl coded and I loved it.
Speaker 2: I was like, I won't made this. I would have
Speaker 2: made this absolute donk.
Speaker 3: A woman wrote and directed this, and can I tell
Speaker 3: you it was so good? Yeah, Okay, I couldn't tell
Speaker 3: what that was gonna be it's really we have to
Speaker 3: just eat ourselves right into phone notes. Hello, everyone, welcome
Speaker 3: to phone no Where. It's really not far off from
Speaker 3: our et impression no Bug Dunk Dunk.
Speaker 2: Where we talked about the notes we took on our
Speaker 2: phone while watching the film. Leona can't wait to hear
Speaker 2: what you thought about this, so glad it sounds like
Speaker 2: you're into it. Your first note, unfortunately, is off. I
Speaker 2: go to does thedog die dot com. They did it.
Speaker 2: They did it. They snapped that dog's neck, and I
Speaker 2: didn't kill the dog. I guess I remember nothing except
Speaker 2: for must I must.
Speaker 3: I'm eternally grateful for the website does thedog die dot
Speaker 3: com because as soon as there is a dog or
Speaker 3: any sort of beloved creature on screen, I go straight there.
Speaker 3: I say, excuse me, hello, and the website says, yes, Mama,
Speaker 3: you're gonna want to close your eyes from minute one
Speaker 3: to nine to one. From our one to nine to
Speaker 3: one eleven of the film, can I say and thank you,
Speaker 3: thank you for letting me know.
Speaker 6: So.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately for me, the movie was canceled right from the beginning.
Speaker 3: I watched it, but I was like, well, you killed
Speaker 3: the dog, so I don't know what to tell you,
Speaker 3: but I gotta say it won me back.
Speaker 2: Really yeah, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3: The ending, The ending got me back. And you see,
Speaker 3: I know your first note and thank you for your consideration.
Speaker 3: You wrote you simply must hate this child.
Speaker 2: It's really about a kid being a little freak. Yeah,
Speaker 2: did you hate him? Yeah? Or medium?
Speaker 3: I saying I hated that child feels like hate speech. Oh,
Speaker 3: because that child is so clearly on the spectrum.
Speaker 2: Oh, I wouldn't see it that way.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that child is saying everything that comes to
Speaker 3: his mind. He is interpreting things very literally. Sure, he's
Speaker 3: not responding.
Speaker 2: To social cues.
Speaker 3: That kid has a splash of the tism and that's fine.
Speaker 3: On top of that, that kid is annoying as well.
Speaker 3: But the other kid sucks. I hated that kid. That
Speaker 3: kid was shouting constantly and making your life. Had a
Speaker 3: terrible haircut, and may I say was ugly? The kid
Speaker 3: was ugly. I don't know what to tell you. What
Speaker 3: are you about to say?
Speaker 2: I didn't There were moments where I thought that this
Speaker 2: kid was I guess, very cute. He pulled my heart
Speaker 2: strings a number of times, like when he's like.
Speaker 3: Okay, mommy, I was just really hungry. God, I was like,
Speaker 3: shut up, let her take a nap.
Speaker 2: If it's in a word or if it's in a podcast,
Speaker 2: you can't get rid of the baba Dad break, We'll
Speaker 2: be right back. Are there so many memes? Are there
Speaker 2: so many memes from this movie because it's so iconic.
Speaker 2: Some of the lines idea, yeah, yeah, I didn't realize
Speaker 2: that either. One of the lines when when he's like, Mommy,
Speaker 2: I'm hungry after she turns all monstrous because the Baba
Speaker 2: duck has taken over her and she goes hungry, Why
Speaker 2: don't you just ate shit? That's a meme? No, it
Speaker 2: just seemed memable. I don't know. Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know that many memes.
Speaker 3: That classic meme of a mother yelling at her son
Speaker 3: to eat shit?
Speaker 2: Maybe so much? Eight ship. Oh my god?
Speaker 3: Can I say something that's a little bit anti Australian.
Speaker 3: It was hard to take this movie seriously because it
Speaker 3: had Australians.
Speaker 2: Go and watch A day A day. Mommy, I said,
Speaker 2: go and watch a day they day And I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: darn't don't let it in, don't lead it in, don't
Speaker 2: let it in so Okay, all scary movies had that
Speaker 2: edge because for our ears, it's a little bit like
Speaker 2: of like a fun it's like a game of understanding
Speaker 2: what's happening. Or also sometimes it does sound very funny,
Speaker 2: and sometimes it doesn't, but sometimes it does, and that
Speaker 2: makes it a little bit more of a comforting experience
Speaker 2: to watch, I think, than just disgusting American accents. That's true.
Speaker 3: I'm glad it wasn't Americans.
Speaker 2: You've said, in a surprise to no one, I have
Speaker 2: muted the film.
Speaker 3: Well does the Dog Die? Came in clutch by forewarning
Speaker 3: me of the other sort of moments of horror slash
Speaker 3: gore ish that would be in the film, But unfortunately
Speaker 3: that meant that I was expecting them to happen at
Speaker 3: any time. Yeah, because the website and spoiler alert everybody,
Speaker 3: the things of sort of body horror that happen are
Speaker 3: she pulls out her tooth and a guy's head gets
Speaker 3: sliced in half, is how it was worded on the website,
Speaker 3: and then she gets stabbed, And so for every minute
Speaker 3: of the one hour thirty I was like, somebody might
Speaker 3: be about to pull out a tooth, so let me
Speaker 3: just preemptively mute the film. I'd say, all that happened
Speaker 3: in the final eight minutes of the film, I know,
Speaker 3: and I wish does the dog die head? Let me
Speaker 3: know that, because I didn't need to be muting a
Speaker 3: minute eighteen really not like a gratuitous movie all throughout
Speaker 3: at all. In fact, I wonder if it was low budget,
Speaker 3: because they don't. It's all a lot of like ideas
Speaker 3: or her life is just like getting freakier. And for
Speaker 3: a while I realized, you don't even know what the
Speaker 3: monster is yet You're like, is the kid a monster?
Speaker 3: He's so freaky, and then she starts acting weird and
Speaker 3: then you only see the Baba Duke a couple of times.
Speaker 3: That it's always like in shadow, it's not like lots
Speaker 3: of disgusting things happening.
Speaker 2: I mean there are bugs at some point. Yeah, besides that,
Speaker 2: it's mostly them just being weirdos spooky spooky. Yes, you
Speaker 2: said it's so funny that the Babaduke. This is so true, Leona.
Speaker 2: You said, it's so funny that the Baba Duke wrote
Speaker 2: a cunty pop up book about themselves. I love this.
Speaker 3: So for anybody who's not seen the film, the way
Speaker 3: that Babaduk is introduced is this random children's book shows
Speaker 3: up on the weird freak child's bookshelf and the child's like,
Speaker 3: I want to I don't read this one for bed.
Speaker 3: And it's a pop an illustrated pop up book, hand
Speaker 3: lettered that tells the story, the backstory of the Babaduk
Speaker 3: and introduces them as a concept. And I love that
Speaker 3: this demon is out there like cutting out a paper
Speaker 3: outline of themself, illustrating a self portrait, making them into
Speaker 3: a pop up format where you can pull a tab
Speaker 3: and the hand way. I'm obsessed with that. I wish
Speaker 3: every movie villain, especially like horror film Monster, had to
Speaker 3: introduce themselves in a creative craft when it.
Speaker 2: Takes some art direction, Oh, it takes it makes it
Speaker 2: is it like introduces yourself.
Speaker 3: It comes to Freddy Krueger shows up as like a collage.
Speaker 3: It's kind of like Jason that like sword Guy shows
Speaker 3: up as like a sticker journal. He sticker journals himself
Speaker 3: into somebody's nightmares.
Speaker 2: You know, yeah, totally totally love that. It takes a
Speaker 2: little bit of work. It's like when uh, you know,
Speaker 2: at the beginning of of RuPaul's Supermodel where he like
Speaker 2: tells a little story about like himself, like yeah, you
Speaker 2: know in the Brewster Projects or whatever. It's like that.
Speaker 2: It's like, let me introduce myself a little bit before
Speaker 2: I enter your space. Get a little introduction like, hey,
Speaker 2: I'm the Baba, a bit about me. You let me
Speaker 2: in once, I'm gonna go duke, and then you're gonna
Speaker 2: let me in. And that's exactly what's gonna happen. Yeah.
Speaker 2: The only thing that would be better if they had
Speaker 2: a little theme song.
Speaker 3: Oh that was what this was missing. They needed a
Speaker 3: like what they do on drag Race exactly like but
Speaker 3: for the Baba Duck. I'm sure people that just calls me.
Speaker 2: Why can't you just be normal? A classic meme?
Speaker 3: Sienna, you noted OMG the art department that made that
Speaker 3: book watching it get destroyed and I so you had
Speaker 3: that While that was happening, I was like, yes, Mama.
Speaker 2: BBQ the bb Duck. That's good, thank you BBQ the
Speaker 2: Baby Dook.
Speaker 3: I also couldn't believe they didn't say anything about like
Speaker 3: the Babba Book. Yeah, this introduces themselves via the Baba Book.
Speaker 3: I could have been having some fun. They needed to
Speaker 3: have a little laugh a little giggle.
Speaker 2: The Bible dock a baby key, the Bobba Book.
Speaker 3: And let me say apologies to Australia for this episode.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, we're being insane, and I answer
Speaker 2: being insane huge.
Speaker 3: But because I live with the Babba Duck.
Speaker 2: And Leona does live with the Baba Duke by.
Speaker 3: The way, yeah, it's not my fault. The Babaduk lives
Speaker 3: in my laundry basket.
Speaker 2: Oh, Leon, a great point. You said we need a
Speaker 2: stethoscope that detects demons. Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 3: Every horror film with a spooky child that they take
Speaker 3: to the doctor, the doctor's like, well, all the tests
Speaker 3: came back normal. And I was like, well, why didn't
Speaker 3: you test for demons?
Speaker 2: If the parent could be like, could you actually use
Speaker 2: the demon scope? And they do go, oh yep, they're
Speaker 2: demons in here.
Speaker 3: They need like a cat scan.
Speaker 2: But for demons.
Speaker 3: There's a demon in here an MRI. But the M
Speaker 3: stands for my God. That's the demon. You know, Yeah, totally, Leoni.
Speaker 3: You've also said rar x D the Baba Duke. Oh
Speaker 3: that's so the babaduks vibe that ran.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Babaduk is just like they see them for
Speaker 2: the first time. They're like crawling around the ceiling and
Speaker 2: then they just come down, kind of come down like, yeah,
Speaker 2: they're like a ring leader at a circus. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: they are, is what they.
Speaker 3: Really reminder that that's the career they were meant to have.
Speaker 3: Totally that poor Baba Duck is in the wrong line
Speaker 3: of work. They don't need to be haunting. They need
Speaker 3: to be going and hosting Cirq de sole.
Speaker 2: One thing I don't think I even wrote down is
Speaker 2: the imagine I'm sorry, imagine the Baba Duke m seeing
Speaker 2: Cirque de Solay. Oh my gosh. They'd be perfect. That
Speaker 2: is what they're made for.
Speaker 3: Absolutelyact they wouldn't even.
Speaker 2: Stand out there. We'd all be like, no, you you belong, Like.
Speaker 3: Oh yes, it's served disles Kuza. You don't hosted the
Speaker 3: embodiment of grief at all. You're simply just somebody fit
Speaker 3: for your job who's embodying Liza Manelli in a speak
Speaker 3: in a spookier you.
Speaker 2: Know, sort of drag circus. Yea, yes, exactly. You know.
Speaker 2: What I didn't even write down, but I was thinking
Speaker 2: all throughout is that the television programs will kind of
Speaker 2: lit in this like this Australian public television. Every channel
Speaker 2: she changes too is something like interesting and insane. It's
Speaker 2: like either alle classic old television, like it's either the
Speaker 2: Phantom of the Opera yeah, or like Circus.
Speaker 3: TV yeah, because it was all programmed by the Babba Duck.
Speaker 3: I love by the way of the concerting themselves in
Speaker 3: media throughout history. It's like, and here was my cameo
Speaker 3: in Trip to the Moon, the first ever film. Here,
Speaker 3: of course, I can be spotted in the Wizard of Oz. Yeah,
Speaker 3: Oh my god. The Baba Duck is a producer. The
Speaker 3: Babba Duk should have gotten an EP credit on this
Speaker 3: film for sure. Yeah, produced by the Babba Duck.
Speaker 2: The Bamba Duke. Kiss Kiss.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, Siena, Oh, how spooky for you. You wrote
Speaker 3: her jaw hurts and she's sleepy and time moves wrong.
Speaker 3: She literally is me. I found her so relatable at
Speaker 3: certain points also.
Speaker 2: Did the jaw hurts? Oh, and then she'll like kind
Speaker 2: of like be sitting there and then she looks up
Speaker 2: and it's been nine hours. That's how I feel all
Speaker 2: the time. Oh my god, that's what it's like to
Speaker 2: be me. I'm sitting there. My jaw hurts, and I
Speaker 2: look over in three hours of past and I'm like,
Speaker 2: what the fuck?
Speaker 1: Hell?
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 3: I feel very related to her in that the way
Speaker 3: that she's coming apart at the seems is how I
Speaker 3: feel waiting for my visa application decision.
Speaker 2: Uh huh.
Speaker 3: She's just like, please let me nap. I'm so tired.
Speaker 3: I just need to nap for five years. And then
Speaker 3: she has ice cream for dinner and I was like, hello,
Speaker 3: same walls.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Leana, you've said all cops are bobadoks.
Speaker 3: She goes to the station to report that she's being stopped,
Speaker 3: and behind the police officer, the Boba Duke outfit is
Speaker 3: hung up on the wall. I said, A cab, a cab.
Speaker 2: We know your secret, we know your secret. Yeah.
Speaker 3: It reminded me of did you ever have that book?
Speaker 3: That book about that woman who's a teacher and she
Speaker 3: hates her students because they're all so poorly behaved. So
Speaker 3: she leaves and she dresses up as a witch whatever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is she comes back as the bad That
Speaker 2: is what she does. Yeah, but her outfit is very
Speaker 2: Baba duck coded. That's true. It is m hmm, it
Speaker 2: really really is.
Speaker 3: The Baba Duck really is all around. I love the
Speaker 3: Baba duck. I love the idea it's from love. Actually
Speaker 3: love actually is all around. The actually is all around.
Speaker 3: I think if you go to heath Throw Terminal five,
Speaker 3: you'll find the Boba duck actually is.

Speaker 2: my god, dreaming that the boy Sana you wrote he's
Speaker 2: home aloning the baba duck like genuinely, yeah, well like
Speaker 2: little Jerry rigged things. He's like, I will say, one
Speaker 2: thing I did love about this kid is that this
Speaker 2: kid like does understand monsters on another level. This kid
Speaker 2: is like, by the way, Mom, the Baba do is
Speaker 2: inside of you. And she's like, no, it's not. And
Speaker 2: he's like, no, it is. And I know you're not
Speaker 2: my mom, You're the bobba duck right now. Yeah, just
Speaker 2: really sweet. Actually, he's like, there's something mom, there's something
Speaker 2: else going. This isn't you. I can tell this isn't you.
Speaker 2: And he helps her by setting up a series of
Speaker 2: traps in the basement.
Speaker 3: Yes, slapping her in the legs, legs and tying her
Speaker 3: up and it's really scary.
Speaker 2: And then at a certain point of throw up. She's
Speaker 2: sort of like getting bonked and tripping, spinning and swirling
Speaker 2: and like trips her, he bonks her. It is very
Speaker 2: home alone. You're right, it's really funny.
Speaker 3: Actually, Oh my god, imagine home alone six the Baba
Speaker 3: duck ill versus the Baba duck.
Speaker 2: You've said yes, Mama, and then you've said okay, Mama
Speaker 2: too much.
Speaker 3: At first when she was like, leave me alone, I
Speaker 3: want to nap, Please let me alone. Yeah, because this
Speaker 3: kid has not shut up for one hour. But then
Speaker 3: she yelled at the child and was.
Speaker 2: Like, you should eat shit. And I was like, well, no,
Speaker 2: that is too far. What's wrong with me? That that
Speaker 2: you should eat shit? Made me laugh out loud? Oh god,
Speaker 2: it made me laugh. I really don't like the concept
Speaker 2: of eating shit. It just her like it's so visceral. Wow,
Speaker 2: I guess that doesn't that doesn't it doesn't apply to
Speaker 2: me as some an actual image. It's just like such
Speaker 2: a mean thing to say to your cage your kids,
Speaker 2: like I'm hungry, And she's like, while, whana you just
Speaker 2: ate shit? That's so mean. It very yeah, it's so funny.
Speaker 2: That's like the worst response ever. He's like, no, I
Speaker 2: was just hoping for a meal. I'm a child. I
Speaker 2: literally can't feed myself. She goes, why are you always
Speaker 2: talk talk talking, And I was like, the Bobbadook, the Bobbadook,
Speaker 2: using the Bobbadocks, this is a parallel, parallel structure. Oh yes,
Speaker 2: talk talk talking whatever.
Speaker 3: I am bic pentameter. But for the Baba Duke, I
Speaker 3: am book, I am book, I am dook, I am book,
Speaker 3: I am book, I am babomed.
Speaker 2: Yep, she was using I am dook babomed, which is
Speaker 2: written which I am. Yeah, Leanna, you said two freaks
Speaker 2: jump scaring each other, and you've said Mama's bad day.
Speaker 2: Alternate title for the film Mama's Bound. Mama goes Baba
Speaker 2: today Mama Duke.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, these two freaks when she's sneaking around the
Speaker 3: house looking for her son because she's gone demon mode
Speaker 3: and her son is hiding. But they're both such freaks
Speaker 3: that it's unclear which of them is supposed to be
Speaker 3: the jump scar. Yeah, And I was like, this house
Speaker 3: is hell. Imagine you are a freak who lives with
Speaker 3: another freak, so every time you see each other, you're both.
Speaker 2: Going oh yeah, by the way, exhausting The first half
Speaker 2: of this movie is just the kid being weird and
Speaker 2: people being like, your kid's a freak. I can't, I can't.
Speaker 2: I can't stand being around your kid.
Speaker 3: He's such a funke a height being around him, I
Speaker 3: don't want to and then want to be around your son.
Speaker 2: He's okay, okay, he's okay, it's okay, and then out
Speaker 2: of a out of a treehouse and she's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: breaks her face. He's not okay. It's like, sorry, mama's
Speaker 2: bad day, colon, Mama's mad. Duke. You've said cat cow,
Speaker 2: she does cat cow? Yeah, yeah, that's really funny. That
Speaker 2: cat cow, I bet, can be found in almost any
Speaker 2: horror film. He knows Faratu we saw it in the Babad.
Speaker 2: There's no way to expel anything from your body or
Speaker 2: uh and what's the oppisode expell inhale inhale it into
Speaker 2: your body except for cat cow in the scary movie. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I the next time I do cat cow, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: be thinking about that. Leon those demons out pleaas Leoni.
Speaker 2: You've said the Babaduk is CPT.
Speaker 3: I guess, well, well, I realized when it becomes clear
Speaker 3: that it's about grief. It's like, oh, the Babaduk just
Speaker 3: wants you to process your trauma. The Baba Duck is
Speaker 3: literally cognitive processing therapy because I've done CPT and it's
Speaker 3: like homework assignments each week that you like fill out,
Speaker 3: and that's basically the Baba Duck is having you do
Speaker 3: a very intense homework assignment to process your grief by
Speaker 3: event first of all bye bye, by sucking it in
Speaker 3: and then terrorizing your child and then barfing it out.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean it's an extreme until he's your home
Speaker 2: and then for the rest of your life, feeding at worms,
Speaker 2: feed it worms, just as your homework.
Speaker 3: I loved that scene you wrote. This is so obviously
Speaker 3: made by women.
Speaker 2: Lol.
Speaker 3: That scene at the very end when it like approaches
Speaker 3: her and she gasps and then comes back and it's okay,
Speaker 3: I got I have goosebumps just talking about.
Speaker 2: It right now. I cry.
Speaker 3: That really is what won me back In the end.
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, okay, all right, you got me.
Speaker 2: So many scary movies are supposed to be like an
Speaker 2: embodiment of some fear we have, and so like the
Speaker 2: thing about the fears we have in real life is
Speaker 2: that you kind of have to have some peace with them.
Speaker 2: And grief is such a powerful one to I feel
Speaker 2: like sometimes the Babaduck has talked about like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's about grief, and so we already like we I
Speaker 2: don't know, I had no idea. I knew it was
Speaker 2: about a queer icon. I didn't know it was also
Speaker 2: I knew that about it. But it's almost kind of
Speaker 2: like that's its gimmick sometimes is what like the way
Speaker 2: that I've heard it And I don't know if that's true.
Speaker 2: I don't have I don't know, but like I, I
Speaker 2: think it's so powerful even if you know that it's
Speaker 2: about that, because grief is such a scary thing that
Speaker 2: we just have to experience in our life. It's just
Speaker 2: like and such a different I love.
Speaker 3: The the message of like grief stays with you. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you have to keep living with you. You can't get
Speaker 3: rid of the baba duc, but you can find a
Speaker 3: way to keep to keep going.
Speaker 2: To manage it, to put it somewhere. It's it's it's
Speaker 2: And then when the.
Speaker 3: Kids, like toll I ever meet them and she was
Speaker 3: like when you're older, and I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 3: that's also true, Like you will it comes for us
Speaker 3: all like we do all go through that and experience that,
Speaker 3: and again it doesn't go away. It stays with you forever.
Speaker 3: But I love that, like illustration of grief, how it's
Speaker 3: like a big circle in your life and then it
Speaker 3: stays that same size, but then your life right expands
Speaker 3: around it. Right, your life becomes full with other things
Speaker 3: as well. And that's also very the Baba Duck. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we always are with the Baba Dook, but now she's
Speaker 3: also got.
Speaker 2: In peace with it. It's not like the main thing
Speaker 2: in her life. Like I also thought it was so
Speaker 2: beautiful the ending where she's finally able to just stay
Speaker 2: out loud, like, well, the reason for this is because
Speaker 2: it's like, oh, well, you never celebrated your son's birthday before.
Speaker 2: She's like, well, her, my son's father died that day,
Speaker 2: so this is the first time we're doing it, or
Speaker 2: your son.
Speaker 3: We must say, my son's incredibly hot, father, I know,
Speaker 3: what the hell, let's discuss that. That has to be discussed.
Speaker 3: I also wonder she was in mourning. Yeah, she lost dad.
Speaker 3: Ass is your son being a little freak? Take a
Speaker 3: few minutes off, because otherwise you're gonna start having mama's
Speaker 3: bad day, We'll be right back.
Speaker 2: I thought it was so so sweet though, when she goes, oh,
Speaker 2: I love when women make things when when they're like, oh, yeah, well,
Speaker 2: three weeks is a long time to be out for kids,
Speaker 2: because a lot of this movie also is her as
Speaker 2: a single mom really struggling and everybody judging her, and
Speaker 2: she's just like really having a hard time, and people
Speaker 2: are getting tired of her shit and her like her
Speaker 2: sadness and her disorganization, and they're like, oh, well, he's
Speaker 2: been out of school for three weeks now, it's like
Speaker 2: a long time. And she goes, we needed some time.
Speaker 2: We needed some time because they needed some time, because
Speaker 2: you just need some time to sort things out, to
Speaker 2: deal with it because grief is a really hard thing.
Speaker 2: Was so sweet. Yeah, she got some confidence around that,
Speaker 2: like you said, like her life is growing around it.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I just it. Really these are the kind
Speaker 2: of things where I'm like, oh, I get why you'd
Speaker 2: make a horror movie out of this, because that is
Speaker 2: just a dark part of life and it's like a struggle,
Speaker 2: it's a battle. Hmmm. I love when women make things. Yes,
Speaker 2: a scary movie that ends with her going sh the monster.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
Speaker 4: Work.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Lena, your final note is honestly work. Yeah, really, yes, yes,
Speaker 2: Leona trages. Yes, where we give badges for Boba douk, Yeah,
Speaker 2: of course, and trages for the traumas that are holding
Speaker 2: us back in.
Speaker 3: Process and process. Yes, Oh, I have a badge for
Speaker 3: this is where the why can't you just be normal?
Speaker 3: Meme comes from where she's yelling at her son in
Speaker 3: the back seat and she goes, why can't you just
Speaker 3: be normal? And it cuts to the sun and the
Speaker 3: caption is just screaming.
Speaker 2: I love that meme. Badge for oh, ending with compassion.
Speaker 2: I love the ending so much as we just discussed
Speaker 2: badge for oh.
Speaker 3: I guess this is kind of a badge for myself
Speaker 3: because I was proud of this, this syntax of yes girl,
Speaker 3: BBQ the bb dou Yeah, I love that badges were
Speaker 3: It's so funny to put it on the barbecue on
Speaker 3: the back. Yeah it is again, Sorry to Australia. Badge
Speaker 3: for no gratuitous scares or they all come excuse me,
Speaker 3: they all come in like the last eight ish minutes again,
Speaker 3: Like it's not just like a super disgusting movie, it's
Speaker 3: all it's it's mostly psychological horror.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 3: A badge for the switch of perspective because for the
Speaker 3: first half hour, Yeah, you're thinking that the sun is
Speaker 3: the scary, crazy one and you're seeing it from the
Speaker 3: mom's point of view, and then it switches and suddenly
Speaker 3: you're kind of you're rooting for the sun, yeah, to
Speaker 3: prevail against the demon possessed.
Speaker 2: That is such a good point. And then the last
Speaker 2: it's subtle, but then it's sleigh. The very last second
Speaker 2: switches to bobaduk Pov when they run down the stade. Yes,
Speaker 2: I loved that as well.
Speaker 3: And I love the way that they don't show the
Speaker 3: monster when it like comes yeah upon her in the basement.
Speaker 2: That was awesome.
Speaker 3: Backs off her that also was really cool. Women Women badge.
Speaker 2: For Okay, I kind of loved her hair throughout this movie.
Speaker 2: I don't know what it was doing it did it
Speaker 2: look so good? I don't know. It was such a
Speaker 2: fun shape. Also, it was like it was great big
Speaker 2: on top and yeah she was she was slaying. I
Speaker 2: don't know. It was so good.
Speaker 3: It was borderline of trage for me because I was like,
Speaker 3: this is a woman at her wits end. How is
Speaker 3: her hair constantly a blowout was like a cooler way
Speaker 3: though it was not a color hip or a shape I.
Speaker 2: Would Yeah, it was hip that I would have expected.
Speaker 2: It wasn't just like beach waves. It was cool. No,
Speaker 2: she's cool, very cool. Yeah, she's cool.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 3: My final badge is a badge for a powerful metaphor
Speaker 3: for grief.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really effective. It was so beautiful. Loved that depiction.
Speaker 2: So beautiful badge for I your mother.
Speaker 3: I'm not, Oh, you know what I have to do?
Speaker 3: An additional badge from that where the illustrations of the
Speaker 3: Baba Duk with its teeth, it's got a very specific
Speaker 3: facial expression, and she mimics that in her acting during
Speaker 3: that scene where she's like yelling and possessed, she was excellent.
Speaker 3: There could have been another version of this where there's
Speaker 3: like a woman who's just struggling and screaming and sad.
Speaker 2: That would have felt bad, It would have felt more.
Speaker 2: I don't know. We've seen so many movies, and maybe
Speaker 2: it's because we know she's gonna overcome because this is
Speaker 2: made by women and they're not just gonna like have
Speaker 2: her like at the end be like, well, this is
Speaker 2: what it means to be a girl and I'm just
Speaker 2: gonna die tragically. You're like, oh, look I have a baby.
Speaker 2: Rosemar's baby style very nose Fara too. Yeah, it is
Speaker 2: like yeah, it's tragic, tragic, tragic, and then at the
Speaker 2: end she dies and it's just like, yeah, it just
Speaker 2: feels like using the women's fear for no reason. I
Speaker 2: don't like it's you know, it's not going towards it.
Speaker 2: But for some reason in this one, like it just
Speaker 2: I was just really was feeling for her and it
Speaker 2: felt very in fact, yeah, it felt very like she
Speaker 2: felt very relatably out of it and the way she
Speaker 2: was like avoiding. I also appreciate that they made this grief.
Speaker 2: She's been like holding onto it for seven years. It
Speaker 2: wasn't like just like one year of you know, it's
Speaker 2: like the depth of it, you know, instead of it
Speaker 2: being like, I don't know. I feel like a lot
Speaker 2: of times in movies, people haven't been they haven't been
Speaker 2: gone for long enough. Did you want her? Mom died
Speaker 2: like a year ago? In Wolf? Oh a month ago
Speaker 2: or something.
Speaker 3: There was a movie was it Scream That was like,
Speaker 3: but that was last year. I can't believe you're not
Speaker 3: oly it now, your mom was horribly last year.
Speaker 2: One year ago? What the hell? Yeah? Oh?
Speaker 3: And also was it Twitches? It was Twitches where her
Speaker 3: mom died like two months ago or something.
Speaker 2: I guess all the movies that we're talking about are
Speaker 2: not a notably good movie. But but this is one
Speaker 2: of the reasons why it's you know, it's like a
Speaker 2: very deep thing she's holding on too, and she's pushing
Speaker 2: it away because not those things are really hard to
Speaker 2: deal with in life. By the way, it's not like
Speaker 2: there's a rule book that everybody just follows. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2: My final badge is just I think it was just good.
Speaker 2: Part way through the movie. I was just like, this
Speaker 2: is really good.
Speaker 3: Baba Duke more like Baba good good, Mama good.
Speaker 2: A trag is trages. I only have one, so you.
Speaker 3: Go, okay, Well a trage for the film canceled itself
Speaker 3: by killing the dog right for sure.
Speaker 2: Unfortune. Sorry my only one badge in this movie, and
Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe sorry my only my only trage
Speaker 2: that I wrote down at least was life Unraveling was
Speaker 2: super stressful while I was sick on Nike will oh god. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the way it was unraveling I was like, is this
Speaker 2: your life? Is being out of it watching a movie
Speaker 2: where they're out of it? Weird?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that would be freaky. I was freaking out
Speaker 3: like that, uh trage for has this child considered ever
Speaker 3: doing something that's not shouting? Not even really the actor
Speaker 3: just that kid needed to shut.
Speaker 2: Up that kid. Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 3: You don't have to be shouting all the time. I
Speaker 3: don't know how people put up with children. I don't
Speaker 3: know how you do it.
Speaker 2: Dart litter me, dart lighted in, dart lighted in.
Speaker 3: Dor't let it in, just like when it was on,
Speaker 3: when it was on the playground, being like mom it, mama, sorry,
Speaker 3: just annoying. Children are so annoying. Maybe I'm the Baba duck.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's so funny. We all have a moment in life.
Speaker 2: Have you ever been just experience. You know, you're you're
Speaker 2: in a fight with a friend, or you know you're
Speaker 2: you're having trouble at work. You feel like the world's
Speaker 2: had to get you, and then you have a moment
Speaker 2: where you go, am I the baba duck?
Speaker 3: Oh my god, honestly, girl, I hit the CEO of
Speaker 3: our company with a golf ball the other day, I
Speaker 3: was like, am I the Baba duke?
Speaker 2: What was the context? Please? Oh, please tell me the context? Please?
Speaker 3: The context was regrettably explainable. It was that we were
Speaker 3: doing mini golf for our Valentine's social and on the
Speaker 3: final hole you had to hit it really hard because
Speaker 3: it had to go like vertically up a ramp. And
Speaker 3: I hit it so hard that it went out, bounced
Speaker 3: off the end of the hole, came back, bounced off
Speaker 3: a wall, and then hit the CEO on the shoulder,
Speaker 3: and then every the whole company backed away slowly.
Speaker 2: And I left.
Speaker 3: My second to last trage is ew why is why
Speaker 3: are they leathery? Because the baba duck I love the
Speaker 3: illustrated version of them. But then I r L. I
Speaker 3: agree there was some leather going on that I was
Speaker 3: not ready.
Speaker 2: For the ceiling on the ceiling, what is this texture?
Speaker 2: Not what I expected?
Speaker 3: No, because there wasn't any any hint of a sine
Speaker 3: in the illustrations that the Baba in their pope like
Speaker 3: sheen like in their Baba book. Yeah, and my final
Speaker 3: trage is a trage for the horror genre is so unrespected,
Speaker 3: I know in awards ceremonies and I know, award ceremonies
Speaker 3: are like whatever, but there are some some real achievements
Speaker 3: are happening in this category, like the acting Sie Davis,
Speaker 3: the lead actor in this movie.
Speaker 2: She was so good. These are one of the only
Speaker 2: films also where they can really be explicitly art films
Speaker 2: in a way that reads like I, I, as a viewer,
Speaker 2: get something out of watching an artistic horror film. You know,
Speaker 2: like that has because like they were really creative in
Speaker 2: this one. There was a lot of artfulness to angles
Speaker 2: and shadow and things like that, Like I find myself
Speaker 2: looking for like symbols and things like that, like which
Speaker 2: I'm much more engaged in, like the movie experience than
Speaker 2: I am watching all the other stuff totally. So it's
Speaker 2: strange that we it's just a weird thing to be
Speaker 2: so disrespectful of. I get some of the like the
Speaker 2: slasher things seeming cheap, but a lot of horror movies
Speaker 2: are not like that.
Speaker 3: And let's say a lot of mainstream movies are made
Speaker 3: by men, yeah, and are terrible.
Speaker 2: Terrible, are terrible.
Speaker 3: We need to recalibrate as a society. Well, Sienna, let's
Speaker 3: pop up into our next segment, how to pretend you've
Speaker 3: seen this film.
Speaker 2: This is for.
Speaker 3: You.
Speaker 2: Are at the library looking for a book and you
Speaker 2: open one up and it pops up, and.
Speaker 3: Samuel pops out of it and says, hill aar, hell,
Speaker 3: are are reminds me? I love pop up books will
Speaker 3: always remind me of a film.
Speaker 2: Why are you hiding in this book?
Speaker 3: A film that I love that's a bit a boy
Speaker 3: and a dad and it's really powerful. I'm so sorry
Speaker 3: to Australia. It's called The Babba Duke. And I'm gonna
Speaker 3: talk to you all about it. And in order tell
Speaker 3: you the whole thing, in.
Speaker 2: Order to shun to push, in order to push Samuel
Speaker 2: down to the basement and feed him worms, We're gonna
Speaker 2: give you a few things you can say to pretend
Speaker 2: you've seen the film The Barba Duke.
Speaker 3: Mmm, yes, Samuel, I've seen The Baba Duke. I can't
Speaker 3: talk about this right now because I have to go
Speaker 3: see a man about a thing. And Samuel goes, are, well,
Speaker 3: where where's the man? And I go He's in the cemetery.
Speaker 3: Wonder when Tamil was like, my dad's in the cemetery.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, oh my god, Oh this is interesting. Yes,
Speaker 2: Samuel I've seen the film The Baba Duke. Fun fact
Speaker 2: in Hebrew, bab bab duke means he is coming for sure,
Speaker 2: for sure, he is coming for sure. I don't know.
Speaker 3: That is the thing that steps this up from No Speratu,
Speaker 3: because no Sparatu they're always like he is coming. But
Speaker 3: the Baba Duke, they're like, they are coming for sure.
Speaker 2: They're coming for sure, for sure, which is said that
Speaker 2: is true about grief? It is true, for sure, for sure.
Speaker 2: There's something like, there's something so deep about grief as
Speaker 2: a human. It's like death comes for us all, but
Speaker 2: specifically as a human, the fact that grief comes for
Speaker 2: us all since being social and the people around us
Speaker 2: are so important. Ah, Baba duke, Babba duke.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, Samuel, I've seen the Baba Duck. This film
Speaker 3: has a rare example of a man who seems alright
Speaker 3: actually in the form of Amelia's co worker who shows
Speaker 3: up with flowers and a puzzle. If a man came
Speaker 3: to my if a kind man came to my door
Speaker 3: with flowers and a puzzle, I would say, well, perhaps
Speaker 3: today I am not.
Speaker 2: The Baba Duck. Do come in? That is sweet? Come in, yes, Samuel,
Speaker 2: I have seen the film The Baba Duke. Despite the
Speaker 2: fact that the film was the first to be selected
Speaker 2: for Sundance Festival that year, director Jennifer Kent feared that
Speaker 2: American audiences would dislike it, would dislike its unconventionality. She
Speaker 2: was relieved when the film was very well received in
Speaker 2: the USA and got excellent reviews. Yeah, I feel like
Speaker 2: we love that movie here. I don't know Film Rose
Speaker 2: and the Queer Icon of the Icons alike. I didn't
Speaker 2: know that the film was beloved. I knew the Baba
Speaker 2: Dooke themselves, but I love that. I think the reason
Speaker 2: I saw it in college was because of Film Bros.
Speaker 2: Mm you, I know you. I first, I hadn't remember it,
Speaker 2: and now I saw it again and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 2: my god, work, work, I go.
Speaker 3: I begin to reply to Samuel, but then my perfect
Speaker 3: angel of the dog, Bugsy, starts barking at him, and
Speaker 3: I realize, oh, I'm sorry, I can't continue this conversation
Speaker 3: because I believe you are currently possessed by the Baba Dooke, Samuel,
Speaker 3: so I will be taking my business and my dog elsewhere.
Speaker 2: Yes. Sorry, I just saw some really really funny trivia
Speaker 2: pieces which explain a lot. Yes, yes, Samuel, I have
Speaker 2: seen the Bobba Dook. Here are the two best pieces
Speaker 2: of trivia about this movie. Baba duck is an anagram
Speaker 2: of a bad book. Well, and yep, this answers a
Speaker 2: lot of our questions. Uh, yes, Samuel, I've seen this film.
Speaker 2: And Leanna, the film became a meme and symbol for
Speaker 2: the LGBTQ community after Netflix accidentally placed it under lgbt Movies. Yes,
Speaker 2: oh that's how it started. I forgot about that.
Speaker 3: That's so yes, and then all of the drawings of
Speaker 3: the Babba duck with the rainbow behind them were like, oh.
Speaker 2: What do you know that we don't? Yeah, but it
Speaker 2: all makes sense, they are. It all makes love that.
Speaker 3: The Babba duck is so queer.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's so bab I love when accidents, like when
Speaker 2: there's a moment in capitalism. Yeah, it makes us all
Speaker 2: bind together where we're all like yes, yes, yes, yes, yeah,
Speaker 2: that is so funny. What's the Baba duck doing on here?
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I didn't know the Baba duck came out.
Speaker 3: They came out of They literally come out of the
Speaker 3: closet in the film.
Speaker 2: That's so true. Well, Leanna, shall we move on to
Speaker 2: our next segment, which, of course, should you watch this
Speaker 2: or where we tell you if you watch this film
Speaker 2: or if you should do anything else with your precious time. Leanna,
Speaker 2: what say you?
Speaker 3: Oh gosh, I would say, yeah, you can watch the
Speaker 3: Baba Duck. You do need to be aware that the
Speaker 3: dog does die, So skip one hour nine minutes to
Speaker 3: one hour eleven and a half minutes if you don't
Speaker 3: want to see that. If you're not in the mood
Speaker 3: for watching the movie, you could do some work on
Speaker 3: processing your grief. Uh huh, because it is so it
Speaker 3: is so important to do that, otherwise you will throw
Speaker 3: up a demon in your basement after getting stabbed in
Speaker 3: the leg by your young freak son.

Speaker 2: When you did some time, I would say this movie
Speaker 2: is great. I would actually quite recommend it. It's also
Speaker 2: a cool hour and thirty minutes, by the way, because
Speaker 2: guess what, it was made by a damn woman. She's
Speaker 2: not gonna waste your damn time. And they tell you
Speaker 2: a story in that time, and it's fantastic. It's just
Speaker 2: too like a really good movie. It's enjoyable and it's like,
Speaker 2: this is the kind of movie that makes me want
Speaker 2: to make props for movies really badly. Yeah, what I

Speaker 2: one of the most I watch it when I'm feeling
Speaker 2: really bad because it's so fun to watch them love
Speaker 2: something so much, watching them in real time experience. How
Speaker 2: funny katherin Kim is and them just be like Trixy
Speaker 2: and Kati have to watch all these movies for Netflix.
Speaker 2: Oh it's also a Netflix, uh Netflix thing. And they're
Speaker 2: like us watching movies and kind of just like talking
Speaker 2: about it and kind of enjoying some of them. But
Speaker 2: the one thing that they actually genuinely enjoy and they're like, wait,
Speaker 2: we actually got to watch something I loved is when
Speaker 2: they watch Kath and Kim. So thank you Australia for
Speaker 2: your wonderful art and your sense of humor. But that's
Speaker 2: another thing you could watch.
Speaker 3: Also Australia Coded Australia moment. Trixy and Katia watch that
Speaker 3: show Sex slash Life, huh and they laugh so hard
