Speaker 1: It's in Ny and they there to make your nightca
Speaker 1: Hello and welcome to Night Call, a podcast for your
Speaker 1: strange days and lonely nights. I am Tess Lynch. That
Speaker 1: was my son Emmett special guesting on this episode. I'm
Speaker 1: here in Los Angeles with Molly Lambert and in New
Speaker 1: York Emily Yoshida. Thank you Emmett. I wish he was
Speaker 1: like our Don Pardo our show. He's available. He was
Speaker 1: going to take a I really pushed him to take
Speaker 1: podcasting as an extra curricular, which bizarrely is offered at
Speaker 1: his school, and he was like, no, thank you. He's like,
Speaker 1: I'll just have some thoughts for a while before I'm
Speaker 1: for to monetize them. Or he's like, actually, you don't
Speaker 1: have to go to school for podcasting, mom, as you know, yes,
Speaker 1: and he can get into the podcasting empire through nepotism.
Speaker 1: So it's okay. Because did you prove to him that
Speaker 1: you were a DJ through the photos of our last life?
Speaker 1: Still doesn't believe me. Didn't you show him that you
Speaker 1: were like throwing your hands in the air like a
Speaker 1: cool DJ. Molly took a lot of pictures of me
Speaker 1: where I look like I'm having so much fun and
Speaker 1: you are so nervous, But I really did have had
Speaker 1: a great time, and we should plug. We should Yeah,
Speaker 1: And now we're going to have another night Call live
Speaker 1: event at gold Diggers on February five. Mark your calendar's
Speaker 1: lab and I'm there and I'm going to be there
Speaker 1: in person time. It's a Valentine's Nightcall extravaganza. I have
Speaker 1: an important question, Emily. Last time you were DJ ghost
Speaker 1: DJ because you weren't there. Are you now going to
Speaker 1: come up with a new DJ name or are you
Speaker 1: still going to be DJ ghost DJ? Yeah, I gotta
Speaker 1: figure out my actual DJ name because I've had several
Speaker 1: over the course of the years, but I feel like
Speaker 1: I need a fresh one for this this run of
Speaker 1: my career. So I'll think about it. But you know,
Speaker 1: when I used to play radio when I was a kid,
Speaker 1: because of course I did, My my DJ name was Eminem,
Speaker 1: but it was before Eminem was a Reppert. So test
Speaker 1: went through a lot of potential DJ names before so
Speaker 1: many settling. I love DJ sinking feeling. That's a great
Speaker 1: jinking feeling. It's great. What were some of the other ones?
Speaker 1: Personal TJ meet Sandwich DJ Meet Sandwich was a close second.
Speaker 1: I was very distressed that DJ Clams Casino was taken.
Speaker 1: It was like Clams Casino and I was like, that's
Speaker 1: already a producer and you were like what. I was
Speaker 1: so upset in my mind. I've been DJ Clams Casino
Speaker 1: for such a long time, but DJ sinking feeling it's
Speaker 1: like modern and appropriate to the incarnation of me that
Speaker 1: exists now. So I'm thinking for life, you've been DJ
Speaker 1: for a long time. It's my my true spirit, true self. Um.
Speaker 1: Speaking of my true self, I honored my true self
Speaker 1: by going on a weird trip to a museum when
Speaker 1: I was in the Bay Area this past week that
Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about Night Call because it was
Speaker 1: such a night call place to be. A friend of
Speaker 1: the podcast Sarah Johnson told us about it. It's a
Speaker 1: fisherman's war. If it's called the muse a mechanique, and
Speaker 1: it is, I think mostly a Playland memorabilia museum. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure if all this stuff comes directly from Playland,
Speaker 1: which was the weird old boardwalk arcade amusement part kind
Speaker 1: of thing at the Pier in San Francisco at the Wharf.
Speaker 1: But this is just a bunch of weird old arcade machines,
Speaker 1: sort of like predating gaming. Even do you know when
Speaker 1: they're from like six or something. No, I think they're
Speaker 1: from the twenties and thirties, is my impression. There is
Speaker 1: one at the door that's the Laughing sal which is
Speaker 1: like a famous carnival thing that's just a terrifying, like
Speaker 1: large animatronic sort of scary looking men who just laughs
Speaker 1: just like jiggles and laughs. It's kind of like the
Speaker 1: stuff from like big sideshow stuff sides definitely like the
Speaker 1: weird dark underside of that stuff for sure. Like you
Speaker 1: walk in the museum and the first things you see
Speaker 1: are like, watch these zoo tropes of the San Francisco
Speaker 1: fire and earthquake of nineteen o six. We like what
Speaker 1: they had instead of disaster movies. Yeah, and like some
Speaker 1: you know, kind of silicious stuff, but less of that
Speaker 1: than I expected and just more weird animatronic machines. The
Speaker 1: museum is free to go to, but everything costs like
Speaker 1: a quarter. A couple of machines that cost more than
Speaker 1: that that I didn't get into. But there's a lot
Speaker 1: of like weird dioramas where you put in a quarter
Speaker 1: and they kind of like move around a little bit.
Speaker 1: So there's one that's like just like people exploring with
Speaker 1: a form that just got invented, being like we can
Speaker 1: make anything into a weird mechanized miniature, kind of like
Speaker 1: a flea circus, but a doll flee. Well, there was
Speaker 1: one that was very a flea circusy because it was
Speaker 1: a toothpick carnival. And my friend was saying, you can
Speaker 1: see that the inside of the glass hasn't been cleaned
Speaker 1: in like a hundred years. There's definitely like you spend
Speaker 1: a little time in there and then you're like, I
Speaker 1: have to go outside. I have to be in the sunlight. Again.
Speaker 1: This is reminding me of the Pike Place Market, and
Speaker 1: I think a lot of the funkier stuff there's is
Speaker 1: not there anymore, but there used to be a lot
Speaker 1: of that kind of stuff, like yeah, looking through some
Speaker 1: little goggles to see a little diorama and something like
Speaker 1: kind of fake freak show type peep show things where
Speaker 1: you could like look inside and see like a headless
Speaker 1: woman or something like that. Okay, well, funny you should
Speaker 1: say that, because the thing that I found really scary
Speaker 1: and dystopian and reminded me that like it's always been
Speaker 1: dystopian is that they had these machines of executions that
Speaker 1: we're doll executions, and there were four of them, like
Speaker 1: they saw the first one and I was like, this
Speaker 1: is crazy, but like in a weird way makes sense.
Speaker 1: And then I was like, oh, there's a bunch of these. Um,
Speaker 1: I've never heard of this in my life. I watched one.
Speaker 1: It was like, watch this like genuine old timey British
Speaker 1: execution with like a priest reading the last rites and
Speaker 1: then it's like a castle. You put the corner and
Speaker 1: then like the doors open. You see this little like
Speaker 1: priest next to this guy who's like kneeling and he
Speaker 1: reads the little last rites to him, and then a
Speaker 1: door opens in the basement and the guy gets hung.
Speaker 1: But it's a puppet. It's a puppet. It's a doll.
Speaker 1: And I watched it. I was like, wow, I wish
Speaker 1: I hadn't watched that. And then later on Johnny, my
Speaker 1: boyfriend was like, oh, there's a guillotine. Listen to that
Speaker 1: one too, and we watched it and there was like
Speaker 1: a tiny little guillotine. It's like a little puppet execution.
Speaker 1: It's terrifying. That's horrible. But it's weird because you're like,
Speaker 1: I spent money on this because I wanted to see
Speaker 1: and then I saw, and then I couldn't unsee. But
Speaker 1: something about watching like dolls execute each other. It's also
Speaker 1: bizarre because who who accept us is that kind of
Speaker 1: museum catering to if it offers that which, like even
Speaker 1: was too much for you. I just imagine kids going
Speaker 1: in and being like, oh cool, let me uh no,
Speaker 1: there's like kids like to get creeped out by that stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think maybe we underestimate because I certainly remember being
Speaker 1: kind of creeped out and made uncomfortable, but in like
Speaker 1: kind of fun way. But the whole Fisherman's Wharf, like
Speaker 1: it has that weird boardwalk Carnie kind of atmosphere. Even
Speaker 1: sometimes when they try to like sanitize and city walk
Speaker 1: places like that, there's just like such an undercurrent of
Speaker 1: haunted noush And this museum is so super haunted and
Speaker 1: you should go there because it's great. Um, except if
Speaker 1: you spend money on seeing. Yeah, you can go in,
Speaker 1: but you won't see anything unless you have a bunch
Speaker 1: of quarders. You can go get your quarters, you can
Speaker 1: never really check out. No, there is one machine my
Speaker 1: friend seremon or hand, and there's this thing that was
Speaker 1: like a Roman like fortune telling machines. And there was
Speaker 1: one that was like a Roman coin on the wall
Speaker 1: with a mouth, and my friend like put her hand
Speaker 1: in it, and I was like, I can't believe you're
Speaker 1: putting your hand in there, like you could just like
Speaker 1: chomp down on your hand. Well, you had just seen
Speaker 1: the guillotine. Totally true. Yeah, Well, we love a haunted
Speaker 1: museum at Nightcall. We're connoisseurs of a good museum. This
Speaker 1: was very actually museum on the rock seeming oh house
Speaker 1: on the Rocks on the road. Yeah. Yeah, And we've
Speaker 1: talked about it several times also with the the Black
Speaker 1: Mirror episode the Black Museum. I think we're a fan
Speaker 1: of the kind of homemade museum, and we wanted to
Speaker 1: induct a few special things near and dear into our
Speaker 1: heart into our own Nightcall Museum as a special end
Speaker 1: of your treat for all of our listeners who've been
Speaker 1: with us for the almost year that we've been on
Speaker 1: the air. We're not quite ready for our Our first
Speaker 1: anniversary was somebody was treating recently when they were like,
Speaker 1: was this the same year that Paddington two came out?
Speaker 1: And I was like, yes, yes, because that was one
Speaker 1: of our first episodes. That's crazy. But I was like,
Speaker 1: this has been the longest year in history, but we
Speaker 1: really measured it in Night Calls. At the same time,
Speaker 1: I feel like Pattingtons came out yesterday, so it's like
Speaker 1: both feelings. Well, it's timeless, and I'm glad it's available
Speaker 1: this Christmas treat now for everyone who didn't catch it
Speaker 1: the first time around. But somebody else was saying, like,
Speaker 1: did did the movie I Feel Pretty come out this year?
Speaker 1: And I was like yes because Emily, you and I
Speaker 1: saw it together in Times Square and I was They
Speaker 1: were just like, how did all of these things happen
Speaker 1: this year? Like anything? Uh, it feels ancient. It's the
Speaker 1: end times, so time is stretching and contracting. But let's
Speaker 1: make our own museum while we can. Hall of Fame
Speaker 1: for Night Call virtual for now unless we get that
Speaker 1: big grant. Uh. We've picked a few things we think
Speaker 1: fall into our ven diagram of the things that we
Speaker 1: all enjoy that we think all night callers enjoy um
Speaker 1: and just put them on a special shelf of the mind.
Speaker 1: So with that, this is the first ever Night Call
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. So for our first inductee. Night Call
Speaker 1: is not a podcast that necessarily condones or promotes, or
Speaker 1: UM endorses any particular diet. But I feel that over
Speaker 1: the last year the three of us have all kind
Speaker 1: of come down on UM, at least with the agreement
Speaker 1: that we will not eat a certain creature anymore. Also
Speaker 1: just out of honor and respect for this creature. This
Speaker 1: creature is perhaps the most iconic of cephalopods, and and
Speaker 1: it stalks the night see changing colors and adapting to
Speaker 1: its environment in a beautiful way. It is a monster
Speaker 1: that haunted my dreams, a sea monster that haunted my
Speaker 1: dreams from a very young age. So I will always
Speaker 1: have respect for this creature. UM. They are also great
Speaker 1: viral stars UM. There are many good videos of UM,
Speaker 1: this year's inductee getting into into and out of jars particularly.
Speaker 1: I think we have to honor that, and so this
Speaker 1: year eighteen I would like to induct into the Night
Speaker 1: Call Hall of Fame. Occupy. Also, they're probably aliens unilat
Speaker 1: to mention. I think that's why they are the most
Speaker 1: Nightcall of all animals. They are aliens that swim among us, misunderstood,
Speaker 1: strange looking, probable aliens who like to collect things, have
Speaker 1: senses of humor, and you shouldn't so I I have
Speaker 1: been reading a bit about um octopi or octopus is
Speaker 1: actually in this in this book that I read that
Speaker 1: is by ah Um. He's both the philosopher and Um
Speaker 1: a scuba diver. He refers to them as octopuses, So
Speaker 1: I don't know if octopi is incorrect in the scientific community.
Speaker 1: I like the way octopi sounds, so that's why I
Speaker 1: said that. But they and also I was reading about
Speaker 1: this about raccoons also, which I feel like are maybe
Speaker 1: like a runner up or maybe next time for for
Speaker 1: for the night Call Hall of Fame. Raccoons their their
Speaker 1: hands are like antenna and an octopi or like that too.
Speaker 1: Like most of the information they get about the world
Speaker 1: comes from their tentacles. That's where they're just like so
Speaker 1: active and they feel like they have minds of their own.
Speaker 1: Uh is just because that's where so much of the
Speaker 1: brain activity is. Like they have neurons in there in
Speaker 1: their tentacles, which is cool. Um. When you do see
Speaker 1: a video of a raccoon that like kind of feeling
Speaker 1: things out. They've kind of got this like grabby grabby thing.
Speaker 1: It is because they're getting information through their little raccoon hands.
Speaker 1: I've started referring to them exclusively as trash cats. I
Speaker 1: endorse that name to be used more broadly. I've heard
Speaker 1: trash pandas also interesting. I endorsed both trash Panda. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I saw two really big raccoons a cross the street.
Speaker 1: I think it was right after our last night called
Speaker 1: Live of hen was very magical. They were like helping
Speaker 1: each other cross the street. Do you guys have any
Speaker 1: particularly favorite octopi or ones? You know, they don't need
Speaker 1: to be famous, but maybe ones that you had an
Speaker 1: encounter with or watched a video of any to call
Speaker 1: out specifically. I have a tragic thing that Molly I
Speaker 1: think we've already talked about it. Molly sent us the
Speaker 1: saddest article in the world that I posted on the
Speaker 1: Nightcallers Facebook group of like the mother octopus like cannibalizing herself. Um,
Speaker 1: and that was I'll never forget that. I wish I could.
Speaker 1: I wrote a short story once about an octopus that
Speaker 1: was rejected every place I submitted It still man, it
Speaker 1: still slaps. I was going to go on a side
Speaker 1: tangent about cuttlefish, but I won't because they're not the
Speaker 1: same thing. Cauttle Fish are amazing too. I mean we
Speaker 1: we like all cephalapods. I think that's safe to say.
Speaker 1: They're okay by us. But I feel like the reason
Speaker 1: I don't eat them isn't necessarily just because I respect
Speaker 1: them so much. It's also because I'm not into their
Speaker 1: texture for food to rubbery. Yeah, I mean I've eaten
Speaker 1: calumary like I do. You see, I'm not into the
Speaker 1: columulary squid. Yeah, yeah, the same. They're definitely the same.
Speaker 1: It's it's different, but it's different. But their tentacles yeah,
Speaker 1: big gear for tentacles, guys, really big ear for tentacles.
Speaker 1: Tentacles are only going to get bigger and bigger. So
Speaker 1: congratulations to octopi octopuses, however you want to say it.
Speaker 1: You will be you'll have a special place in the
Speaker 1: Night Call Hall of Fame. Yeah, we will be happy
Speaker 1: to serve the octopi when they take over. Not but
Speaker 1: not literally, so we're not really serving octopied not guys.
Speaker 1: We've discussed this, uh, this place a lot over the
Speaker 1: past year. It's a place. There are many of them,
Speaker 1: but it's always really the same place. It's always right
Speaker 1: where you expected to be, and you always know that
Speaker 1: when there's nowhere else, it feels like the right place
Speaker 1: for you. This place has its doors open, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 1: It's the twenty four hour diner, a dying day, dying breathe.
Speaker 1: I really thought you were going to stay cheers. That's
Speaker 1: why I was trying to do. It is wherever nobody
Speaker 1: really knows your name. In fact, that's a plus. I
Speaker 1: don't want to go to a place where everyone knows
Speaker 1: my name, because usually when I go to a diner,
Speaker 1: I'm just like getting away from some other the cloak
Speaker 1: of fried um. Someone chimed in. Recently, we were talking
Speaker 1: about a twenty four hour diner in Cconk, Massachusetts. I
Speaker 1: think it was. Two listeners very uh generously reminded us
Speaker 1: of the name Bickford's Bid and we heard that it's
Speaker 1: been kind of redone and fancified, and that it's kind
Speaker 1: of lost some of its chime. I don't care if
Speaker 1: it's still twenty four hours, and actually I'm not sure
Speaker 1: if it was actually twenty four hours, because Fred sixty two,
Speaker 1: for instance, Lose Feel is quote unquote twenty four hour diner,
Speaker 1: not actually four Oh, I think so. I think they're
Speaker 1: closed at four until seven. They take a three hour break.
Speaker 1: I believe like a lot of diners that are supposedly
Speaker 1: twenty four hours will also take a break if there's
Speaker 1: like no traffic at a certain point, as they should. Yeah,
Speaker 1: as long as you're kind, you're if you're almost twenty
Speaker 1: four hours, I'll give it to you. Fatburger. Also, I
Speaker 1: think closes at like four. Bob's Big Boy, I believe
Speaker 1: is the full two four. Yeah, there's some and is
Speaker 1: a Norm's opening in the valley that will be twenty
Speaker 1: four hours supposedly really great uh specials really yeah, there's
Speaker 1: like the lesson I went through, there were all these
Speaker 1: seniors there to get the senior special, and my friend
Speaker 1: was like, this is the best argument for getting old.
Speaker 1: I've ever like this looks awesome. I feel like senior
Speaker 1: specials are always the right amount of food too. I
Speaker 1: had the same experience last night when I tried to
Speaker 1: go to the local Italian restaurant at like seven pm
Speaker 1: and they were like, we are all booked up Sunday
Speaker 1: night at seven pm? Are you kidding me? Was actually
Speaker 1: the Columbos Columbos, the jazz club and Italian restaurant in
Speaker 1: Eagle Rock that we also would put on the Hall
Speaker 1: of Fame if everyone had been there, which I have
Speaker 1: not been there, but well, you'll love it. It's like
Speaker 1: a David Lynch movie. Inside, it's like red velvet curtains,
Speaker 1: a weird painting of val Pacino um and a kind
Speaker 1: of uh, you know, like a lounge e caparet music
Speaker 1: vibe of local local musicians. Are twenty four hour places
Speaker 1: really going away? Are they endangered? I? I personally don't. Well,
Speaker 1: you live in never sleeps, never at a twenty four
Speaker 1: hour diner, even though in the afternoon I was not
Speaker 1: taking advantage of the twenty four hours. But I do
Speaker 1: like the fact that even if it's not, you know,
Speaker 1: late at night, they'll still let you sit there forever
Speaker 1: and ever evening close. Do you ever go to French Roast?
Speaker 1: Isn't that the twenty four hour diner on the corner
Speaker 1: of eleventh and sixth I don't. I've ever been there before.
Speaker 1: I got a Connecticut muffin franchise. It is it's like
Speaker 1: a bougie twenty four hour It's it was like the
Speaker 1: place in college where you're roaming around and it's like
Speaker 1: three in the morning and you're like, let's all go,
Speaker 1: we're so drunk, let's go eat some French onion soup
Speaker 1: and terrible. There's a place like that in Manhattan Beach
Speaker 1: called the Kettle that I feel like. It's also I
Speaker 1: think the cattle is twenty four hours, like where they're like,
Speaker 1: it's five am. Wouldn't you like some hot onion soup
Speaker 1: melted on it? In a way, yes, I would. To
Speaker 1: Keel his shots, It's like, please do not get French
Speaker 1: onion soup. God. I mean I think when do Pars closed,
Speaker 1: I think that that right, the one in the Farmer's
Speaker 1: market whatever. That one's like fake. I know that people
Speaker 1: don't respect that one, like everyone all of the like
Speaker 1: you know, seventy year old men who like really feel
Speaker 1: like they know l A will be like, no, that's
Speaker 1: the Dow Pars, that's the Dow Parts. They're just totally wrong.
Speaker 1: It was the Valley dew Pars. Last time I was there,
Speaker 1: I think we saw Ian zerringh uh, Steve Sanders and
Speaker 1: then I was like, who is that cool couple over
Speaker 1: there that are like very engrossed in each other, And
Speaker 1: then when they were leaving, I was like, it's Delta
Speaker 1: Burke and oh my god, whoa. It was amazing experience.
Speaker 1: At least glad to have that memory. Yeah, everybody should
Speaker 1: pick one diner their faith, and in the realm of
Speaker 1: the twenty four hour diner, I guess Norms. Norms is
Speaker 1: the best. I I can't say Bickford's now because I
Speaker 1: haven't been since two thousand five, but I'm going to
Speaker 1: go ahead and time travel back to like two thousand three,
Speaker 1: two four, and Bickford's it. Pickford's. Well, if if you
Speaker 1: guys aren't going to pick waffle House, and I'm going
Speaker 1: to pick waffle House even though it's been a second
Speaker 1: since I've actually been to one, because in Chapel Hill,
Speaker 1: where I most frequently am in the south now, there's
Speaker 1: a place that the locals consider superior to the waffle house. Um,
Speaker 1: but I do love a waffle house. But is that
Speaker 1: local place open twenty four hours? It is not. Baffle
Speaker 1: House is the one place where you're like, the chain
Speaker 1: is probably just as good as the local place because
Speaker 1: it's like really good chain, right, kind of an underdog
Speaker 1: can tell under for the Hall of Fame. Although Emily said,
Speaker 1: who doesn't like it? You know what I'm talking about?
Speaker 1: The moon? Guys, how I didn't know what you're talking about?
Speaker 1: It so fucking cool. I love the moon. God, I
Speaker 1: love the moon. Who could who could argue against the moon?
Speaker 1: The older I get, the more I believe in the
Speaker 1: powers of the moon. My mom for the longest time
Speaker 1: has been like, you seem a little high strung? Could
Speaker 1: it be the moon? And I'm like, no, I don't
Speaker 1: think so. And now I'm like, well I don't maybe
Speaker 1: it was. Wouldn't it be nice if it was? My
Speaker 1: favorite conspiracy theory that's not real is the like, well,
Speaker 1: your body is like water, isn't it? You are the tie?
Speaker 1: And it's true. Much like astrology. You're like, wouldn't it
Speaker 1: be nice if there was a system that governed everything
Speaker 1: and things made sense? A lot of calls. You know,
Speaker 1: there's stuff goes on though astomatically with the moon, Like
Speaker 1: there's more crimes and stuff. I have all the scientific
Speaker 1: evidence to back it up clearly. Sometimes there more crimes
Speaker 1: when the moon is bright or when there is because
Speaker 1: that is when everyone can see you doing your crimes
Speaker 1: in the break but your crime, But do your crimes
Speaker 1: in the new moon, in the dead of night, trawling
Speaker 1: the night see like an octopus. Yeah, do your crimes
Speaker 1: when there's snow moons you can be like if everyone
Speaker 1: else is also doing their crimes with the full moon,
Speaker 1: you want to do your crime. There's less cops. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Resources are spread thin. It's power
Speaker 1: in numbers. Emily, where do you fall on the moon?
Speaker 1: Does everybody know where their moon is and they're in
Speaker 1: their chart? Speaking of astrology, our math teacher in tenth
Speaker 1: grade did it for Tessa and I but I have
Speaker 1: forgotten that was a twelfth grade math teacher, Molly, really yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: he did our right, he did our charts bears my
Speaker 1: moon is in scorpio. Oh my god, Oh my god.
Speaker 1: Because the math teacher was like, well, that's why you
Speaker 1: know you're a virgo. But you've got this this because
Speaker 1: I was tried to lead a lead a walk out
Speaker 1: in the class one time or something. Shockingly, but the
Speaker 1: tyranny of your astrologer math teacher he was he was
Speaker 1: just so nice that we pushed him around as a
Speaker 1: class because he was such a nice dude, and we
Speaker 1: were a bunch of senior who were who were in
Speaker 1: remedial math. By the way, it was remedial math. Do
Speaker 1: you feel like you're more of the horse shack or
Speaker 1: the viney Barberino. I think, see this is this bears
Speaker 1: on what we'll be talking about later, of what rules
Speaker 1: we occupy. I have no objectivity about that math class.
Speaker 1: Who would you think? Okay, I kind of I'm kind
Speaker 1: of flat. I did my my end of the year
Speaker 1: project on the echo boom population and it was just
Speaker 1: me being like, see all these people had babies and
Speaker 1: then they went on to have babies. Look at that
Speaker 1: math math right there? Got an anyway, the moon the moon, um,
Speaker 1: I will say, when one note from the cinema about
Speaker 1: the moon, there there are some good depictions of the
Speaker 1: moon in cinema going all the way back to the
Speaker 1: Silent era. If there was one movie of the moon
Speaker 1: that I wish I could cut out from another movie
Speaker 1: and just enjoy on its own, it's the end of
Speaker 1: First Man, a movie that we will never discuss on
Speaker 1: this podcast. Whatever again, we'll not see that movie. But
Speaker 1: I laughed very hard at Ira Madison's description of it
Speaker 1: when he was like, the reasonly people don't like this
Speaker 1: movie is because it's just about like Ryan Gosling wants
Speaker 1: to suck the moon. Well, I don't know about that,
Speaker 1: but the end of it, like you know, especially on
Speaker 1: the big screen, is a very good case. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: foxed the moon. It's a good case for the wonders
Speaker 1: of the Moon. It's very it's very cool looking. Don't
Speaker 1: you wish that movie weren't about Neil Armstrong or whoever
Speaker 1: it is, And it was just like an hour long
Speaker 1: just about there, you know, the real thing. And he
Speaker 1: doesn't want to suck the moon. He wants to like
Speaker 1: throw a necklace into the moon, which is like stupid.
Speaker 1: It's like the entire scene of like not a spoil
Speaker 1: first man for people, but the entire scene is this wonderful,
Speaker 1: like like stately scene of grandeur on the moon. And
Speaker 1: then it becomes like, oh, because he's still sat about
Speaker 1: his daughter, and then that's the like and it kind
Speaker 1: of cuts cuts the mood. But up until then it's
Speaker 1: pretty rad. Molly, you recently talked about the moon landing
Speaker 1: with a friend of the pod. I will not reveal
Speaker 1: this friend's name because they do not want to be
Speaker 1: outed in public as a moon landing truther. But Steph
Speaker 1: Curry just said he doesn't believe in the moon landing.
Speaker 1: So I feel like it's a hot topic. Friends, Steph Curry, Well,
Speaker 1: I feel like it's a hot topic. I feel like
Speaker 1: all the big conspiracies of history come back up. We
Speaker 1: talked about room two, theories seven a lot um. They're
Speaker 1: basically just their argument was like, if we can do it,
Speaker 1: why haven't we ever done it again? Because it's really expensive.
Speaker 1: But they're like, we went four times under like one president.
Speaker 1: I think it's really expensive, and it's sort of like
Speaker 1: once you've done it once, it's like, cool, we can
Speaker 1: The whole point was to prove we could do it,
Speaker 1: and then after that it's like, I don't know. But
Speaker 1: their their argument was also that like it all took
Speaker 1: place under one president, did it? Didn't they go to
Speaker 1: the moon again? Not with Kennedy or not with them,
Speaker 1: not under Nixon. I think they were saying that it
Speaker 1: happened all four times under Nixon. I can't prove this
Speaker 1: fact check um. And they were like, what is Nixon
Speaker 1: known for lion about stuff? Oh? I mean like, it's
Speaker 1: it's not an unpopular conspiracy theory, So yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: it's Schrodinger's moon. Yeah, exactly how do you prove it?
Speaker 1: Especially if people don't just automatically believe video of things,
Speaker 1: which now we know you should not. So yeah, well
Speaker 1: now shouldn't should we fake a Mars landing? I said,
Speaker 1: we should fake it and get all the men to
Speaker 1: move there with So that's our plan. Don't tell them
Speaker 1: our plan. Did I ever tell you guys that I
Speaker 1: met somebody who was like a finalist for the Mars
Speaker 1: one thing? Oh? Yeah, probably not happening anymore. I also
Speaker 1: wouldn't wish humans on Mars. I don't want to go
Speaker 1: to space. I just feel like humans don't deserve another planet.
Speaker 1: And also, I mean, if you're going to go to
Speaker 1: a planet, shouldn't you go to one of the very
Speaker 1: earth like planets that have been discovered within the past
Speaker 1: like two years? Yes? Is that just too far away? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Too far away. We don't have we don't have faster
Speaker 1: than light, we don't have FTO. I want to conserve
Speaker 1: our resources until we can, though I don't really think
Speaker 1: like I think we're jumping the gun and being like
Speaker 1: let's just see what we can do, see if we
Speaker 1: can go to Mar. It's like, let's wait, let's hold like, hey, also,
Speaker 1: uh as a control look at this other planet we
Speaker 1: sucked all the way up exactly maybe. And I saw
Speaker 1: some article that was like, colonizing Mars will destroy any
Speaker 1: life that might exist on Mars, and we'll just never know, right.
Speaker 1: I still think that the best option is to do
Speaker 1: like they did in Wally, where they have like the
Speaker 1: giant by and large ship where people go around in
Speaker 1: their little floating seeds million years. I hate it, but
Speaker 1: at least you're not destroying other planets. At least you're
Speaker 1: in a vessel. But they've seen in your own planet
Speaker 1: to destroy. They still make trash and throw it into space,
Speaker 1: the space trash. Yeah, but I mean it's it's a
Speaker 1: very it's a dim view of the future. For sure.
Speaker 1: It's bad. But let's leave Mars alone. So for our
Speaker 1: next nominee, I feel like there were many potential films
Speaker 1: and or television shows that we could have inducted into
Speaker 1: the Night Call Hall of Fame, many works of art
Speaker 1: that are near endeared our heart, that speak to us,
Speaker 1: that embody our values. But I think that if we
Speaker 1: had to pick one, at least this time around, for
Speaker 1: this first this first year, we would go to one.
Speaker 1: That's kind It goes all the way back to the
Speaker 1: beginning of our show and our identity who we feel
Speaker 1: we are within the podcast world. This is a film
Speaker 1: by a filmmaker that I think we all generally like,
Speaker 1: but I don't think we necessarily have. Maybe we don't
Speaker 1: agree about all of his movies except for this one,
Speaker 1: um and it gives you a little bit of everything,
Speaker 1: namely three dudes, three of the best dudes, a alcoholic reporter,
Speaker 1: a cartoonist who turned detective, and a cop play mark
Speaker 1: by Mark Ruffalo, the best kind of cop. If you
Speaker 1: have to have one. This movie that we are inducting
Speaker 1: into this Yerares Night Call Hall of Fame is Zodiac. Heay,
Speaker 1: I fully forgot you were going to do Zodiac, and
Speaker 1: you had no idea what she was talking about. When
Speaker 1: you were talking about it, I was like, this is
Speaker 1: the best description of show girls I've ever heard. Next year,
Speaker 1: next year because another possibility or eyes wide shut that,
Speaker 1: I was like, she describing it has to be Zodiac.
Speaker 1: Those are they orbit at our center? Is Zodiac? Yeah? Yeah, Zodiac. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I was going to ask about this because I
Speaker 1: was I was trying to like put together some that's
Speaker 1: of what I was going to talk about in my
Speaker 1: opening and night, and I was I was thinking, I
Speaker 1: was like, I think, in general, I'm a Fincher fan,
Speaker 1: but I feel like I feel like we have some
Speaker 1: wildly varying opinions on the movies of his that we like.
Speaker 1: Like I'm like, probably not as big as a Gone
Speaker 1: Girl fan is. I feel like you guys are, but
Speaker 1: I like it, Okay, It's just not my favor. And
Speaker 1: then I just saw I recently saw a Girl at
Speaker 1: the Dragon Tattoo for the first time, and I was like,
Speaker 1: this movie is trash. And before I know the Hacker
Speaker 1: the industrial Hacker, and made didn't get it too close
Speaker 1: to home. We talked, I just want to watch a
Speaker 1: movie about me. The Nordic noir Boom a little bit.
Speaker 1: We talked about Snowman a bunch of my other podcast,
Speaker 1: Molly Sleusy Friends. We gave you all the clues. We
Speaker 1: gave you all the clues, just the Nordic Boom when
Speaker 1: people were like green lighting all this stuff just because
Speaker 1: it was like it's in the snow people get murdered. Um,
Speaker 1: there's that one black mirror. But I feel like Zodiac
Speaker 1: is like the best example of that kind of that
Speaker 1: kind of vibe of like the mystery that's sort of
Speaker 1: pointless because like what is Life's yeah, yeah, and and
Speaker 1: that I feel like it is the pinnacle of that
Speaker 1: kind of mystery. And it's got that like you know,
Speaker 1: shiny finch or sheen, but it also has a real
Speaker 1: kind of like rough around the edges are kind of
Speaker 1: hang dog feel to it. That is, it's just like
Speaker 1: a perfect meal. It's got everything that you want in it.
Speaker 1: It's like an action movie where the action is thinking
Speaker 1: really hard, Yeah, wow, did I crash? Did You're right?
Speaker 1: There's like mental you're right because there's barely any actual
Speaker 1: like violence shown on screen, right, but you see everyone's
Speaker 1: thinking so hard they're like sweating up. Also, the violence
Speaker 1: you do see is like so intense scary. And it
Speaker 1: was also one of those first movies where I was like,
Speaker 1: there are so many CG effects in it, but they're
Speaker 1: not They're not for action or violence. It's like the
Speaker 1: like the shot of the car going down the streets
Speaker 1: is like heavily digital. He's like one of the people
Speaker 1: I feel like who knows how to actually like use
Speaker 1: digital Yeah, yeah, because the whole thing is like if
Speaker 1: you can use it sparingly, like this is what nobody does.
Speaker 1: Like Jurassic Park, they used it sparingly. That's what people forget,
Speaker 1: and then as soon as they had done it once,
Speaker 1: they were like, let's just do it all for everything,
Speaker 1: and then you never had practical effects again. But like,
Speaker 1: the best thing is a blend. That's my fine blend.
Speaker 1: Do we all feel comfortable still with our assignments as
Speaker 1: far as the Three Eat the Three Dudes of ZODIACO,
Speaker 1: I think we're pretty much. I'm sitting here with notes
Speaker 1: on my lap. They're really in depth notes about mostly diners. Um,
Speaker 1: so I think I'm still Gray Smith. Do you guys
Speaker 1: still feel right? I mean, I'd like to live on
Speaker 1: a houseboat. Yeah, well they in theory, and now you
Speaker 1: love Fisherman's Wharf, so you'll just like live on your
Speaker 1: house boat and go to Fisherman's Warf all the time
Speaker 1: in San Francisco. Life by the Weird. I think that's
Speaker 1: almost the Rockford Files. I think he's in a van
Speaker 1: again great life. So wait that reminds me I have
Speaker 1: another nominee. Oh, speaking of things and things about detectives,
Speaker 1: I would like to nominate for the Night Call Hall
Speaker 1: of Fame. Angela Landsbury. Speak on it. Angela Landsbury. She's
Speaker 1: only in really good things. She was in Blue Hawaii.
Speaker 1: Really yeah. I think she had like a long you know,
Speaker 1: she started the theater. I think, um, she's cool as hell. Murder,
Speaker 1: she wrote, is a great show that stands up well.
Speaker 1: I love a show about people underestimating somebody and then
Speaker 1: that person solves the murder every time. I like all
Speaker 1: the shows like Colombo, I like The Rockford Files. Um,
Speaker 1: I love Murder, she wrote. And we were talking about
Speaker 1: bed knobs and broomsticks recently because I think why it
Speaker 1: came up. Um, but you've never seen, especially now that
Speaker 1: you've seen Mary Poppins. It's like the so weird Mary
Speaker 1: Poppins where she's just openly a witch. Right. Well, so,
Speaker 1: I don't want to spoil this for you guys too much,
Speaker 1: but I think by the time this episode comes out,
Speaker 1: the world will now so I might as well get
Speaker 1: it out there. But did you know that Jelia Landsbury
Speaker 1: is in Mary Poppins returns no is she a human
Speaker 1: teapot basically, I mean she may as well be. She's
Speaker 1: at the very end, and it's the part that's clearly
Speaker 1: it was clearly written to be the Julie Andrews cameo.
Speaker 1: But I think but then Julie Andrews didn't want to
Speaker 1: be in it because and the like the line that
Speaker 1: she gave was like, oh, I don't I didn't want to.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to hog the spotlight from Emily Blunt.
Speaker 1: I wanted to let her have her moment. But I
Speaker 1: think she can't really sing anymore, Julian. She doesn't want
Speaker 1: to ruin the illusion and this and the scene is
Speaker 1: a song, like she sings a song. So instead we
Speaker 1: have Angela Landsbury there who's like, it doesn't many make
Speaker 1: any sense, but it's totally not unwelcome. Well, it's just
Speaker 1: like Droomsticks. It's almost like a side called Mary Poppins.
Speaker 1: It's the same kind of like weird Victoriana kind of
Speaker 1: stuff that we're talking about for the Weird Museum. I'm
Speaker 1: talking about weird boardwalkie stuff that I love to laugh vibe.
Speaker 1: There's like being in a room with some old men
Speaker 1: and then laughing and going to the Sea. That part
Speaker 1: is so weird and Mary Poppins I forgot about love it.
Speaker 1: There's a part where the Knights of Armor come to
Speaker 1: life in bed the remember but she's a very long
Speaker 1: movie long. She's a witch. It's weird. Um. And then
Speaker 1: she was also in the Manchurian Candidate, like not that
Speaker 1: far off from then, where she gives the greatest performances.
Speaker 1: She's she's so she has like a warmth but also
Speaker 1: a depth that's really hard to She has the warmth
Speaker 1: and then then they use it against you, and like
Speaker 1: Charian Candidate, it's like somebody who you love and trust
Speaker 1: being scary. Yes, exactly. Um So, Angela Landsberry, we salute you.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Night Call Hall of Fame. We will
Speaker 1: dedicate all of our eventual Night Call Murder Mystery novel
Speaker 1: series to Yes. Absolutely yeah. If we ever get that
Speaker 1: Netflix deal, we demand that it stars Angela. When Big Art,
Speaker 1: Big Art is going to give us that grant money,
Speaker 1: Big Art Museum, test, you have another nominee. I do now. Listen,
Speaker 1: this might make some people upset, but it shouldn't because
Speaker 1: what I am about to nominate is less a singular
Speaker 1: thing and more a giant umbrella if you or maybe
Speaker 1: a giant bowl a serving vessel that you can fill
Speaker 1: with whatever you need. And I think that that is
Speaker 1: really why this uh, this nominee speaks to all of us.
Speaker 1: It is exactly what you want it to be. It's
Speaker 1: not what other people tell you it is. It belongs
Speaker 1: where it belongs. This sounds like a lot like my
Speaker 1: pitch for the for the Diner, but it's a different thing. Guys,
Speaker 1: dipping sauces give it up. We've had some of our
Speaker 1: most heated conversations on this podcast about dipping sauces, most
Speaker 1: notably when I cannot mention this starts with an M. Well,
Speaker 1: there are so many dipping sauces that involved that. There's
Speaker 1: the thing in these mentioned. It's the base men. We're
Speaker 1: going to mention it at the end of the year.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about nai. It was really really mannaise in
Speaker 1: the Holliday was that thing you're into, like confrontational honesty,
Speaker 1: radical radical honesty, radical honesty time I just state apasta
Speaker 1: salad with mannaise with a dressing that definitely I realized
Speaker 1: as soon as I started eating it, huts mayonnaise in
Speaker 1: it ate it anywhere pretty good. You loved it, ate
Speaker 1: it of it, but I didn't like look at you.
Speaker 1: You loved it. Now you're trying to hide it when
Speaker 1: you tell if I loved it, I would say if
Speaker 1: I turned completely, But it was more just that I
Speaker 1: I just want to you didn't You didn't bomb. I
Speaker 1: didn't bomb. What I'm really getting behind now here is
Speaker 1: a having a million differences that a variety of keeping sauces.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying that I wanted to say mayonnaise out loud,
Speaker 1: which someone forbade us from doing. We we obliged them,
Speaker 1: and now I'm rescinding that it's the holidays where we
Speaker 1: can do. We want the marvelous Mrs Mayonaise. Um. So
Speaker 1: this variety that you speak of, I'm trying to think
Speaker 1: of some real life examples, and the first one that
Speaker 1: comes to mind is the tower of onion rings at
Speaker 1: a little establishment known as Birds. Uh. I don't think
Speaker 1: I've ever had this onion ring tower, but are you
Speaker 1: very close to Birds? And I know I stand an
Speaker 1: onion ring tower. I thought you're gonna say the bloom
Speaker 1: and onion. Oh yeah, well it's similar concept, but it
Speaker 1: comes out it comes out like it's a dowel. That's
Speaker 1: just a tower of onion rings stacked up on it.
Speaker 1: And I think they have three different dipping sauces and
Speaker 1: one of them is like an a ol A. One
Speaker 1: of them is like a barbecue sauce, and I forget
Speaker 1: what the other one was, but it's wonderful and it's
Speaker 1: and you kind of bury it up as you go
Speaker 1: down the tower. And who doesn't want that? I love that.
Speaker 1: There used to be a like a healthy fast food
Speaker 1: restaurant called I Believe Tops. They had a condiment bar.
Speaker 1: Well that's the thing is that Tops with the Z
Speaker 1: it was like not as good as real fast, like
Speaker 1: the food that it was trying to improve on. It
Speaker 1: did not succeed there, but it had so many condiments.
Speaker 1: It was an embarrassment of condiments and I would just
Speaker 1: go embarrassment. It was an embarrassed Sometimes there's a place
Speaker 1: that will have like the good salsa bar, so you
Speaker 1: go like, I'm going to get the most options, Baha Fresh,
Speaker 1: Baha Fresh, but also Ricky's Fish Tacos, which is the
Speaker 1: fish taco truck, and then you get your like I
Speaker 1: want this one, but then this one's also good. You
Speaker 1: could just have them all you could have it all.
Speaker 1: I got two kinds of sausa yesterday from haraces Tacca,
Speaker 1: which I also endorse and who goes as Tacca the
Speaker 1: best place in the world um, And they just gave
Speaker 1: it to me like giant cups and I was so happy.
Speaker 1: But what kind of salsas? Um? A green and a
Speaker 1: ret But I also like almost drank it several times,
Speaker 1: and then I was like, what would be wrong with that? Well,
Speaker 1: we know it would be to soup. When you drink
Speaker 1: a sauce. You've been down that road, Molly, soy sauce.
Speaker 1: I'm just not allowed to drink soy sauce and great
Speaker 1: quantities anymore. That's the other thing, like having a soys,
Speaker 1: having a soy based sauce and then making a kind
Speaker 1: of like all of these different iterations of the soy,
Speaker 1: Like now you you have the sauce. Doctor. We always
Speaker 1: talk about Dr John on Top Chef when they had
Speaker 1: the Hot Sauce making competition and his number one thing
Speaker 1: that he was like, what I'm looking for is a
Speaker 1: hip tang. We talked about it all the time because
Speaker 1: it is exactly it describes something so well. It's like
Speaker 1: a doctor John is like a language. Know it when
Speaker 1: you taste it. It's no translation that hip tang or not.
Speaker 1: That's why Crystal hot sauce is superior sauce. Crystal endorse
Speaker 1: night call Oh please Crystal, we love you. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: love Crystal vinegar hot sauce. Also, I will say to
Speaker 1: night callers interested in getting into making your own hot sauce,
Speaker 1: It's are easy. I learned. Did you make a hot sauce?
Speaker 1: I made like a sausa and a hot sauce. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you just like boil some peppers with vinegar. Doesn't about
Speaker 1: your eyes and your lungs when you're boiling it, not
Speaker 1: if you're not like standing right over it. See I hover.
Speaker 1: It's too dangerous for me. Did you drink our Top three?
Speaker 1: Top three sauce was so hard? Okay, well I'll name
Speaker 1: one right now. Um. I love honey mustard, either dipping
Speaker 1: sauce or dressing, and it is my favorite, my favorite
Speaker 1: flav It's very good. I like the Ken's honey mustard.
Speaker 1: I'm if I had to choose one single sauce, it
Speaker 1: would be Ponzo. But if I got two would be
Speaker 1: Ponds and Tardar sauce. But never together. Never together. I'm
Speaker 1: not crazy. Um yeah, I feel like soy sauce has
Speaker 1: to be number one if I could only choose one
Speaker 1: for the rest of my life. But remember when you
Speaker 1: were used to soy sauce and then you had pond
Speaker 1: zu the regular soy sauce so good. Second might be
Speaker 1: malt vinegar. You're vinegar. I mean, I love them, but
Speaker 1: I love your sauces are like the darkest, most watery sauce.
Speaker 1: Well maybe the second one, like mustard mustard counts mustard
Speaker 1: counts mustard and Emily on honey mustards. I didn't want
Speaker 1: to steal her mustard veilor the honey mustard dressing is
Speaker 1: like a combination of things. Only what's the best mustard? Um,
Speaker 1: I have no idea, but it's one that they have
Speaker 1: at the diner that I was just at. That's like
Speaker 1: pale yellow. I wonder if it's kens. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Is the kn's one have a grain in it? Because
Speaker 1: the one in the tiny tub does. The one in
Speaker 1: the squeeze bottle doesn't, because it is just like a
Speaker 1: plain yellow colored sauce, kind of heavy on the honey. Yes,
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to make a nightcall. Sauce. Now, yeah,
Speaker 1: that would be awesome, you know, and it's gonna be
Speaker 1: though it's gonna end up being a remo lode, so
Speaker 1: good combines all the things we like. Wait, I like
Speaker 1: that when we should we bring a nightcall sauce to
Speaker 1: because money high last time. Yeah, maybe I'll make some
Speaker 1: some sauce. Let's make sauces. My other sauce that I
Speaker 1: would choose is going to be controversial, but it's because
Speaker 1: it's a mayonnaise. But it's Cubi mayonnaise. Rest your commitment.
Speaker 1: We all decided that cub mannaise is the Kremla manise.
Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm gonna bar. A lot of things make
Speaker 1: me bar, so don't even take your person. What a
Speaker 1: lovely museum we've created to our favorite things. I I
Speaker 1: picture us walking down the halls. We have Helloon and
Speaker 1: Angela Lansberry and some some sauce. We're riding those bicycles
Speaker 1: with one giant wheel in the front. We we definitely
Speaker 1: need to have those audio guides where you hold up
Speaker 1: the thing to your ear, the like little stick and
Speaker 1: it tells you facts about each thing. Um, we weren't
Speaker 1: we weren't please heavy on the facts today, but facts don't.
Speaker 1: This was a feelings hall of the mus the of
Speaker 1: Jurassic Night Callery. Yes, so I have I have a
Speaker 1: something of late, a late entry that almost made my
Speaker 1: list because I saw it today. It's a movie, it's
Speaker 1: another movie. And I immediately texted Molly and Tests and
Speaker 1: said that it was perhaps Night Call Night Calls movie
Speaker 1: of the year. Uh. And that is the movie Aquaman,
Speaker 1: which is incredible and I feel like us all of
Speaker 1: our favorite things in it, including OCTOPI ties in perfectly
Speaker 1: with my plan to make the cool new catchphrase it's
Speaker 1: wet I wish. The catchphrase for for for Aquaman was
Speaker 1: get wet. Well after it's like a picture of Jason Momoa.
Speaker 1: After Iris said that thing about First Man being about
Speaker 1: a guy who wants to suck the moon, and I
Speaker 1: was like, Aquaman looks like it's about a guy who
Speaker 1: sucks the ocean. Yeah, yeah, and that is I guess
Speaker 1: what it's about. It sounds like well, riding the sea creatures.
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, well. Emily just texted Tess and
Speaker 1: I and her cell which was very good. Was Willem
Speaker 1: Dafoe riding a sea horse? Yeah? Who doesn't want that
Speaker 1: from a big blockbuster. Apparently it's being very well in China,
Speaker 1: and it does feel like one of those movies it's
Speaker 1: like engineered to do really well in China, but like
Speaker 1: I can't like it's it's engineered to do really well
Speaker 1: in my heart too. It's so it's so wacky, and
Speaker 1: you know, it looks like a black light poster. It's
Speaker 1: so great a kingdom. It's true. We love a wacky
Speaker 1: see it as it kind of sounds like a deviant
Speaker 1: art like fan art thing come to life where you're
Speaker 1: just like, what is this? Oh, look it exists? What
Speaker 1: is this? Oh? Here you go? You know, I feel
Speaker 1: like a lot of the stuff about dark, gritty superhero
Speaker 1: movies has like rob superhero movies of what would make
Speaker 1: them fun, which is like being very weird. And so
Speaker 1: it seems like the weirdness is coming back, and not
Speaker 1: just in a deadpool like zingary way, but maybe like
Speaker 1: a Willem Dafoe riding a sea horse way. I really want.
Speaker 1: Patrick Wilson's all so in it, and he wears like
Speaker 1: a Mercape. You said something else about like Nicole Kidman
Speaker 1: and Crabs, just like on Nicole corn it's wearing like
Speaker 1: a crab arm as like armor at one point and
Speaker 1: then like throws it off and you realize what it
Speaker 1: was like a crab arm and I just like started
Speaker 1: laughing out loud. It was so happy. Sounds sounds like
Speaker 1: a weird George Miller. Yeah, listeners, if you have any
Speaker 1: recommendations for the Night Call Hall of Fame, you should
Speaker 1: give us a call at to four or four six
Speaker 1: night or an email at Night Call Podcast at gmail
Speaker 1: dot com, or you can hit us up on Twitter

Speaker 1: this every year as long as we're around so and
Speaker 1: and we'll also link to some kind of virtual place
Speaker 1: where all of our Hall of Fame picks can live.
Speaker 1: And maybe, like I would love to have like one
Speaker 1: of those old guest books, like an angel Fire site
Speaker 1: where people can write their their comments and rebute to
Speaker 1: each of our picks. Um. So we'll we'll figure out
Speaker 1: a way to get that up off the ground. Happy
Speaker 1: New Year, everybody, Happy New Year. Oh. We I have
Speaker 1: one last thing. I'm just gonna make a wish right
Speaker 1: now on the podcast. I didn't get permission from Emily
Speaker 1: or Molly, but I'm doing it anyway. So I've noticed
Speaker 1: that there has been some kind of campaign to get
Speaker 1: Oh Hello to host the Oscars, and I need to
Speaker 1: put it out onto somewhere that I just need that
Speaker 1: to happen, and so just send good vibes because that's
Speaker 1: the only way the Oscars, the only way they could
Speaker 1: redeem it at this point. It's the only redemption. So
Speaker 1: that is my that is my wish for all of
Speaker 1: us for the new year. I'm right there with you.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that would be the best. Happy New Year,
Speaker 1: Happy New Year.
