1
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: So he walks me into something called a target, and

Speaker 2: they're not free, but not free in exchange for an

30
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: exchange for the knowledge, a certain knowledge that has a

31
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 2: certain monetary value that's well beyond what the average podcast

32
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 2: engineer would make.

33
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: So Engineered my Career. We have engineer Cody here in

34
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: the studio with us today and he's just going to

35
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: lay a question on us and we're going to try

36
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: to help him.

37
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, tell us about first, Cody, what are some of

38
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 2: your what's your ambition? Because it helps us to know

39
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 2: what you're hoping to do, what you think you could do.

40
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, thanks for having me. First of all, I'm

41
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 3: really glad to be here.

42
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 2: We know, and there's also only a certain amount of

43
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 2: time that we have for this segment. It's a short

44
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 2: opening segment. It's not like one of our anchor I.

45
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 3: Can, I can speed it up, try to go quicker,

46
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 3: but I don't do this regularly or very often, and

47
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 3: you don't do what Key is soft and often to

48
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 3: talk in into the microphone like this, Oh, I say

49
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 3: very unusual.

50
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 2: Specify when you say when you're talking about something that

51
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 2: we don't know what it is, it helps that you

52
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,679
Speaker 2: specify what it is you're talking about.

53
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 3: Like voltage and stuff, or are you more interested.

54
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 2: Now I'm saying, like, when you say I don't do

55
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: this often, it's a lot of there's a lot.

56
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: There's there's a lot of people often, there's a lot

57
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 1: of things you don't do often. There's a lot of

58
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: things you're doing at any given time that we don't

59
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: know why you're doing them.

60
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 2: So you have to be specific when you say that

61
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 2: you don't do something. When you say I do do

62
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 2: this often, we know what that is. It's sleep. M hm.

63
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 3: So you want me to be more detailed with my

64
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: prepositions what they're referring to.

65
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 2: Well, that's certainly not what a preposition is. But if

66
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 2: if we had all the time in the world, we

67
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:24,239
Speaker 2: get into yeah, grammar, whether or not what is a preposition?

68
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: But unfortunately we don't have that time.

69
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: No, it's a mini seg so we don't have that.

70
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 2: We have twenty seconds.

71
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 3: Well, essentially I want to do that now whatever that

72
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 3: is okay, we're out of time.

73
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 2: Unfortunately we are at a time.

74
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: But I think he got a lot of great guidance,

75
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: and I think we did engineer's career in the sense

76
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: of at least knowing how to.

77
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 2: Ask how to ask a question, which is a very

78
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 2: important part, huge of getting to the next level.

79
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: Can't be underestimated.

80
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 2: Having a concise question prepared ahead of time and knowing

81
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 2: the most basic parts of speech.

82
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: So you're welcome, and johneer Cody, let's get into the

83
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: next segment.

84
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 2: This is a very fun segment for us.

85
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: A little walk down memory lane for us.

86
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 2: We watch these DVDs, we turn them on, they start

87
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 2: playing for just very quickly.

88
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: Yes, CVD, it's a disc. It's a round disc. It

89
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 1: holds movies on it. Sometimes on the DVD when it

90
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: on one side it holds just the movies and then

91
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: the other side holds the movies with something special features

92
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: like making a featurette or the original teaser that was

93
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: in the theater or commentary.

94
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 2: In certain parts of the country, on the coasts and

95
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 2: in parts of Chicago, you can go to this private

96
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: club called Blockbuster and you present them with your member's

97
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 2: card and they will give you these DVDs, and yes,

98
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 2: like you were saying, a lot of these DVDs come

99
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 2: with commentary where the filmmakers describe how they made the movies.

100
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 1: And we thought, isn't that fun and shouldn't we provide

101
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 1: some commentary on some of the movies we've been involved

102
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 1: in for our listeners, so you can hear what it

103
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: was really like on the movie set. But this commentary

104
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 1: is a little different. It's uncommon common tear.

105
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 2: This is uncommon commentary because a lot of what you

106
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 2: hear on the more common commentaries is lies and.

107
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: Bs and a bunch of it's a bunch of hack

108
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 1: bullshit artists telling you that they were involved in a

109
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: movie that me and Hayes really made.

110
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: So I guess we'll just play the scene and we'll

111
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 2: sort of posit at intervals and we'll commentate on what

112
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 2: on what was actually going on behind the scenes.

113
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 4: And known each other many years, but this is the

114
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 4: first time he ever came to me for Council for Home.

115
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 4: I can't remember the last time that he invited me

116
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 4: the house for a cup of coffee.

117
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 2: Now he's he's petting that cat in the scene. You

118
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 2: remember that conversation.

119
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, I do. Well, this is and we should

120
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: let people know this is Marlon Brando. Yes, that's the

121
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: voice you hear, not the voice he wanted you to hear.

122
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: He wanted to be skinny and young for this film.

123
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: He was like, that's how people know me, Like that's

124
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: most of my movies. I'm skinny and I'm young, and

125
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: I speak pretty clearly. And that was the biggest fight.

126
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: So like, yes, for example, when this guy asked him

127
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 2: for a favor, he would say, gosh, I'd love to

128
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 2: That was sort of.

129
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, exactly, anything else I can do for you,

130
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,919
Speaker 1: and so he yeah, he wanted to play sort of

131
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 1: this southern hick character. We said no, we said you

132
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,280
Speaker 1: got to be a heavy and he said, well, at

133
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: least let me show that I love animals.

134
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 2: By eating this this cat. And so we went back

135
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 2: and forth on that for a long time, and we

136
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 2: tried a couple.

137
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: There were a couple takes where he had a forking

138
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: knife and he would be slicing up the cat and

139
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: gobbling down chunks of it, and we found it so distracting.

140
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's so difficult for someone like him if

141
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 2: he decides that's what his character would do in this scene.

142
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,559
Speaker 2: It's very difficult to get him off it. So we said,

143
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 2: do it before the scene, eat a whole cat, eat

144
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 2: one before the scene, and eat one after the scene.

145
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah.

146
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 2: So then your character just did that, and he's getting ready.

147
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 2: He's holding the cat.

148
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: And the scene you're preparing it. You're sort of tenderizing

149
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: it with your hand.

150
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 2: Yes, and you can see, actually, if you watch the scene,

151
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 2: he is smelling it a lot.

152
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's and he's sort of drooling. And it's

153
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: funny because we did actually end up creating alf based on, yes,

154
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: some of what Brando was doing on the set.

155
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 4: Wife is gone mother to there on each old. But

156
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 4: let's be fine. Yod a number one of my friendship.

157
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 4: You're afraid to being liked.

158
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 5: I didn't want to get into troll.

159
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: I don't understand he Uh, it's just as I watched this,

160
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 2: I'm looking at his face and remembering what he wanted

161
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: to do. Yeah.

162
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: Now, Brandon wanted to wear Grauchow glasses through the entire film,

163
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: the kind with a little wind up button inside the

164
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:35,119
Speaker 1: nose so that the eyebrows go up and down. Yeah,

165
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 1: so he insisted this guy's a big mafia man. He

166
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: would say, he doesn't want to get recognized. He needed

167
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: to hide his face.

168
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 2: He's got to be in a funny disguise. Yeah, that's

169
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: what he would say, over and over. What about the

170
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 2: funny disguise? So if you look anytime.

171
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: There's an over the shoulder shot, you can actually see

172
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: the shadow of the big novelty eyebrows and the glasses

173
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: coming out, because he did wear them for a lot

174
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: of the takes, but we just lied to him about

175
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 1: which side of the camera could see him.

176
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 2: And you can hear the like kind of tic tic

177
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 2: of like the mechanism unwinding as the eyebrows go up

178
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 2: and down.

179
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got a little bit out in post, but

180
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: it also kind of helped the tone, I think. So Yeah,

181
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,559
Speaker 1: to get him to not do groucho glasses. On the reverse,

182
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: it was a big, big fight. And sometimes if that's

183
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: what your actor needs to get into character, you just

184
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: let him roll and you work with it like we did,

185
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: and we made a masterpiece.

186
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 4: I come to mean to say, I'm calling on and

187
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 4: give me justice. That's on, as one spee in an

188
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 4: awful usshion. You don't need to get to call me Golfer.

189
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 2: It was there was like little misconception we had on

190
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 2: the first day when he thought that he was actually

191
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 2: supposed to be God's Father.

192
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. That that took some tap.

193
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 2: Dancing and it was it was clear why he would

194
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 2: have thought that in the first place, just based on

195
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 2: what the title of the movie is. And we went

196
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 2: to Francis Ford and said, can we do something about

197
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 2: this title? It kind of makes it seem like he

198
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:25,199
Speaker 2: is supposed to be God's Father. But he'd already he

199
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 2: brought out this huge palette of T shirts and he's like,

200
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 2: I'm underwater in these T shirts.

201
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 1: Like, there's no he was upside down on his T

202
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 1: shirt order.

203
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 2: There's no sending these back.

204
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, and the crew was very happy

205
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: to have they were wearing that, and so ultimately the

206
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: T shirt wound up being so popular it was worth

207
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: the work we had to do on the A side

208
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: convincing him because and he had a legitimate argument, which

209
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: is a Godfather is a kind of submarine sandwich.

210
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 2: Yes, that's another source of confusion.

211
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: A Godfather is a kind of submarine sandwich. God's Father

212
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 1: is a character I can play. And he sort of

213
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: he was like that's like being Superman's father, and we said, well,

214
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 1: you'll do that later.

215
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 2: I think part of what made the tea shirts in

216
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 2: the movie so successful was that it was a little

217
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 2: confusing and you had to go to sort of figure out. Well.

218
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: You felt like you were in a special club, which

219
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: is another type of submarine sandwich.

220
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 4: He said, you come into my house and then my

221
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 4: daughters to be married, and you asked me to go murder.

222
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: This was the biggest battle we had to pick. The

223
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: script called for it to be his daughter's wedding day,

224
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: which is what you see on the screen. Brando really

225
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: felt that it should be his daughter's Keith Signerira. His

226
00:11:55,480 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: argument holds water. A girl only has one keen, it's

227
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: her most special day. A lot of people these days

228
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: get married, they get divorced, they don't get married, they

229
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: have kids. It doesn't matter. You can go get married

230
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 1: to courthouse. So wedding days not as important.

231
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 2: The institution of marriage as we know it is sort

232
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 2: of following apart.

233
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 1: It's eroding.

234
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 2: There are elements in society that are changing the definition

235
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 2: of what it used to mean something, and it's no

236
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 2: longer it doesn't really mean anything anymore.

237
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: Thank you Obama, And so the point we kept making

238
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 1: was I think it's pretty important that this guy's Italian.

239
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,839
Speaker 2: Yes, And it turned out we were talking about the

240
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 2: same thing because Marlin thought that being Hispanic and Italian

241
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 2: was the same thing, and so.

242
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 1: He didn't realize there's two kinds of people.

243
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 2: So he he came in his sombrero with his Mexican

244
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 2: jumping beans and he's like, all right, I'm ready to

245
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 2: do this part. And it just you know, it was

246
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 2: a lesson learned. It just became like one of those

247
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 2: things where you realize you are on you've been on

248
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 2: the same page all along.

249
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 6: Money just you put justice that is not justice.

250
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 5: You thought I was still alive.

251
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 6: Even his son.

252
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 2: Remember directing him because he was so scared of this guy. Yeah,

253
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 2: Branda was so scared of the other guy in the room.

254
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: He looks like, you're gonna punch me.

255
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was really worried about getting punched. And we

256
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 2: were like, well, you're supposed to command a sort of

257
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 2: authoritative like he's supposed to be scared of you, but

258
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 2: you like with your teeth chattering like that and like

259
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 2: sort of hiding under the desk and shivering, that's not

260
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 2: really coming through as much, and he had his lines down.

261
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 2: He was like getting all his lines, but he was

262
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 2: doing most of them from under the desk.

263
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so the audio that you hear is all

264
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: from him being under the desk. And then when you

265
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: see him, we actually had to get that guy out

266
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: of the room and bring his mom in and bring

267
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: his mommy in, So he's sitting up looking at his

268
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: mommy in a lot of the visual parts of the

269
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 1: film where he's on camera, and then when he's speaking,

270
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: he's nailing them. I think he nails the lines, the

271
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: vocal performance, but it's all from under the desk.

272
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 2: Yes, when he's talking to his mom, the vocal performance

273
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 2: wasn't really working because he was speaking very very sweetly.

274
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: Yes, he was doing a little bit of this, but mommy,

275
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: your daughter is still alive. That's not justice.

276
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 2: Yeah. It was a lot like that. And then I

277
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 2: think at this point the movie ended because he wandered

278
00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 2: off and the shoot was basically over at that point

279
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 2: and we were able to patch it together from stuff

280
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 2: from his other movies. But Brando got lost.

281
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, he there was I guess an open sewer, great,

282
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: and he got one foot caught in and then he

283
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: reached his head and hands in to get that foot

284
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: free and wound up getting his whole body in there.

285
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: And he lived down there for a while. It wasn't

286
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 1: until we were filming The Godfather three actually that we

287
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: saw him again, and he built a life for himself

288
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 1: down there. But he also adjusted back to society pretty well.

289
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 2: I think he had put on a lot of weight

290
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 2: when he came back up. He was much heavier from

291
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 2: eating goldfish and hamsters and like household pets, crocodiles. Yeah,

292
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 2: eating a bunch of crocodiles. Yes, that's uncommon commentary. Now

293
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 2: you know, now when you watch the movie again, you'll

294
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 2: you have a little more for what was a little

295
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 2: more syntext. Yes, we have a very good guest today.

296
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 2: I think that's right. Michael Showalter is here from the Stellas,

298
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 2: ever do it. We have a great conversation with him

00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 2: podcasting league doesn't mean you will me. I'm not accountable

304
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 2: to you. You know, I'm going to do what I'm

305

Speaker 2: going to do to like to succeed in podcasting, and like,

00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 2: this is something that I'm not even aware of. You know,

307
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 2: I appreciate it. I love that you're fans, but that's

308
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 2: not that's not my focus.

309
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: It's hard to educate them.

310
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 2: What Up?

311
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:51,560

322
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 2: other podcasts on this network are lost leaders, and there's

323
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 2: the one podcast that sort of it's the case with

324
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 2: like Nerdist and and and that podcast and all the others.

325
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,960

329
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 1: we keep the doors open. So the other podcasts can

330
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 1: find their feet hopefully.

331
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 2: Right, so, and they and they can experiment with like

332
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 2: passion projects and things like that because they always have us.

333
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:57,439

00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 2: your new podcast that you're doing on the on the

337
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 2: on the Earwolf channel. Tell us about that speak on that.

338
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 5: You're basically saying, financed by you guys. Yes, podcast called

339
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 5: Cat Matters because cats matter and yep, and we're going

340
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 5: to have listeners call in and we're going to just

341
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 5: take questions and people can tell stories about their cats

342
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 5: and talk about their cats. And we're basically you're just

343
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 5: going to have people call in and they're going to

344
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 5: talk to me about their cats.

345
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 2: Now, there was another Earwolf podcast called Podcats.

346
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 1: Right.

347
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 2: This is a point of contention with you, maybe because.

348
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 5: I don't think so that, if I'm not mistaken, was

349
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 5: Mark Maren's actual.

350
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 2: Cats talking talking to each other.

351
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 5: I don't think that's the same.

352
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 2: I'm not too But how do you in the shadow

353
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 2: of that podcast, how do you carve out your own space?

354
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 2: When they sort of said all there was to day,

355
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 2: I just.

356
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 5: I'm not familiar enough with it to even comment on.

357
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 2: I think that's a great attitude.

358
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just pretend what it is.

359
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 5: I think that I think that Mark Mark is going

360
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,360
Speaker 5: to be the first guest on on my show, okay,

361
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 5: which I think is fitting because he is uh a

362
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 5: very well known cat loving person. I would have gotten

363
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 5: Mark Twain, but he's not alive.

364
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 2: No, that is wicked, honestly, that is that is wicked sick.

365
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 5: So maybe I'll talk to him about podcasts when.

366
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 1: I don't want to be up. I don't want to

367
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 1: be up inside some weird twists, some of the twisted stuff. Now, Michael,

368
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 1: you and I go aways back, and I was recently

369
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: thinking about an exchange we've had that comes up for

370
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 1: me every so often, just about this business. And we

371
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 1: were outside the Fire and Ice charity ball. The paparazzo's

372
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 1: clicking away, and I got friggin pissed and I and

373
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 1: I gave one of them a good shove and I said, God,

374
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: I hate this business sometimes. And you put your arm

375
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: around me, and you pointed at your brand new Ford

376
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: f one fifty and you said, yeah, but the toys

377
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 1: are nice.

378
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 5: I did say that, didn't die.

379
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 1: Do you know what that meant to me?

380
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 2: Speak on that speak.

381
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 5: On that speak on what that meant to me?

382
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 2: What it meant to Sean?

383
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 5: Well, I really like to know what, Sean. What did

384

Speaker 5: it mean to you? What did it mean to you? Sean?

385
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 1: Well, it's just so easy to lose sight. I think

386
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 1: of what I got into this for. And when you're

387
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 1: in the midst of network notes and your hands crammed

388
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 1: up from signing autographs and you're and you're just sick

389
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 1: of it, and you're just over it. Sometimes you got

390
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: to take a deep breath and go. But the toys

391
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: are nice.

392
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 5: The toys are nice.

393
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: But the toys are nice.

394
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 5: But the uh, the carvings, the shavings.

395
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:15,880
Speaker 2: Yes, the sha shavings, the shavings, the shavings, thank you.

396
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,959
Speaker 2: It's like the the work is the haircut, the process

397
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 2: going through that is the haircut. But then after you

398
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 2: get to sweep it all up and you get the

399
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 2: big bag of hair and you know what, you get

400
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 2: to keep the hair.

Speaker 5: Yeah. Oh, and it's so true. It's so true. You guys. Well,

402
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 5: I mean, no one knows it better than you, guys, right,

403
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 5: because you're you're old pros.

404
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 2: And we guilty. We were talking the other day about

405
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 2: when you guys kicked us out of the state for

406
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 2: cracking people ship up too hard right through a sketch. Yes,

407
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 2: if you could speak on that, if you remember.

408
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 5: I remember, I mean I remember it. It was the

409
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:06,199
Speaker 5: second season and we we wanted to open it up

410
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 5: and bring in some new people. We had. We did

411
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 5: some auditions and stuff. If I'm remembering correctly, you guys

412
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 5: were meeting only and uh, you guys, you guys blew

413
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 5: us away. You brought in some characters, you brought in

414
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 5: some sketch ideas, and and then when we started doing it,

415
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 5: I do remember that you guys were literally just it

416
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 5: was the material that you guys were doing. It was

417
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 5: too funny. That was the actual feeling amongst the group

418
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 5: was just that what you guys were bringing to the

419
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 5: table was too funny.

420
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 2: And you said, I remember, So it turns out there

421
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 2: is such a thing.

422
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 1: Mm hmmmmm.

423
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 5: That's perfect.

424
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 4: Yeah.

425
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 1: I think that was during Hayes's jerk Off robot sketch.

426
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 1: He's the robot that wants that says, why why do

427
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: you want so much?

428
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 2: Jerk off?

429
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: And I think I remember that no one could keep

430
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 1: their ship together.

431
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,360
Speaker 5: No, no, it was It was a laugh out loud,

432
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 5: funny moment. His catchphrase was hilarious. Why don't you say?

433
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 5: The catchphrase.

434
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 2: Does not compute boner buffering buffering?

435
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,879
Speaker 5: And it was a long, a long catchphrase, and it

436
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 5: was a long catchphrase. It had a lot of pauses.

437
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 2: The run, I think is the most important one of

438
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 2: that catch phrase.

439
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 5: But I mean we knew, we knew, Yeah, the front

440
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 5: pause is the was the best pause. But we knew

441
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,880
Speaker 5: when we heard does not compute buffering buffering that we

442
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 5: had something. We had the next church lady on our

443
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 5: hands when we heard that, and some of the group members,

444
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 5: it was a little intimidating.

445
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 2: There's a question from the popcorn Gallery, sort of an

446
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 2: old standard question that we like to ask.

447
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, some of we reach into the popcorn Gallery whenever

448
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: we have a Hollywood celebrity guess that a lot of

449
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: our listeners don't have access to. We let them sort

450
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 1: of post questions on the web and then we'll ask them.

451
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 5: And that's the popcorn Gallery.

452
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 2: That's what the popcorn Gallery is, and it's sort of

453
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 2: a twist on the traditional peanut gallery. But at the movies,

454
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 2: they they stop I see and that question is do you.

455
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,120
Speaker 1: Want to reach into the popcorn gallery first?

456
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, just let me finish saying and that question

457
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 2: is and then you'll reach into it.

00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:22,760

00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 2: How do you cross that space from just being Michael

464
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 2: Showalter to stepping inside the funny zone when you're on

465

00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 5: were gonna come here and have a few laughs.

474
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 2: Sure, a lot of people say that.

475
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 5: And then all of a sudden, you hit me with

476
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 5: a you know, with a question like that. You know

477
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 5: everyone had. First of all, let me say it's there's

478
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,400
Speaker 5: no one right way to do it. Everyone has their process,

479
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 5: thank you. I'm a guy that likes to just you know,

480
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 5: get quiet. I just like to get quiet right before

481
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 5: I'm about to go on stage. Just zone out. All

482
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 5: the noise, all the lights and uh breathe and then boom,

483
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 5: let's do this. It's showtime.

484
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 1: You just open your eyes back up and you're there.

485
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 5: Boom.

486
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 2: I heard you even turn your phone off. Oh sure,

487
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 2: I'm amazed by that. I can't do it.

488
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm connected to the GD thing.

489
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 2: It's part of my hand now.

490
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: Basically, I literally think it's an addiction. I literally think

491
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: it should be classified as an addiction at this point.

492
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: Checking your phone, Yes, it should be. That's how extreme

493
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 1: it's got.

494
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 2: People should go to jail.

495
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, phone jail.

496
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,439
Speaker 1: One thing I like to say, if you look at

497
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,479
Speaker 1: your phone in front of me when I'm talking to you,

498
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 1: that's like inviting another person into the conversation.

499
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 2: Uh huh. You know that's rude. You should never do that.

500
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: And would you do that? I don't think you always would,

501
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 1: And so that's something to really think about. And so

502
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 1: you know, people should go to jail. How do you

503
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 1: get back out of the funny zone.

504
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,359
Speaker 5: Same way you got back, the same way you got in,

505
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 5: the same way you got in. Turn it off, Just

506
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 5: take get a quiet moment, check them with yourself, and boom,

507
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 5: now you're back in. Back down to reality from being

508
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 5: up on the top of the mountain.

509
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: Turn your phone back on.

510
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 2: I find it hurts sometimes going in and out. It's

511
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:02,719
Speaker 2: like Wolverine's claws, you know, time it's like his superpower.

512
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 5: You know, but it hurts him when he does it.

513
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 2: It hurts him every single time he does it.

514
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 5: But it takes something away from me. It's killing a

515
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 5: little part of yourself every time you give that much.

516
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,160
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, exactly, because it doesn't you know, you're giving,

517
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:15,679
Speaker 2: but you're not.

518
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 5: But you're not you, You're You're You're everybody. And it's basically,

519
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,640
Speaker 5: I'm gonna be everybody. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna give

520
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 5: you the gift of me. I'm gonna let you eat

521
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:35,399
Speaker 5: me alive. And it hurts, but it hurts me, but

522
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 5: it helps you.

523
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 2: Yes, because without the close you know, how could you

524
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,119
Speaker 2: save the day? You know, how could you become a superhero?

525
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, And and this isn't meant to be offensive, but

526
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: I think it struck me. You said, like, I'm gonna

527
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,440
Speaker 1: let you eat me. I'm gonna let you gobble me up.

528
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: And so in a way, it's like what Jesus did,

529
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,360
Speaker 1: only more so because we're doing it all the time,

530
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: it's even braver. It's exactly what Jesus says.

531
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 5: It's exactly what Jesus did.

532
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he just did it the one time. He

533
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 2: was like and then he peaced outs stepped away. Yeah, yes,

534
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 2: because he probably knew what we know now, which is

535
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 2: it really hurts right whereas we we've done this is

536
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 2: like our seventh or eighth episode of this thing, and

537
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 2: him just doing one episode basically into like one piece

538
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 2: his you could say.

539
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 5: His life was was a very one one very good.

540
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 1: Podcast, one very good podcast, an excellent podcast episode, a

541
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,639
Speaker 1: great premiere. But if you don't follow it up, really,

542
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: what is that now?

543
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,120
Speaker 2: Michael? We know you're a bit of a foodie. That's

544
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 2: sort of your reputation around town. Yep, and you like

545
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 2: to do your famous restaurant reviews.

546
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 5: That's right.

547
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 2: What are some of the hottest restaurants in town that

548
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 2: you've been enjoying eating it lately?

549
00:28:52,720 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's an amazing new text mex place in who

550
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 5: called Colonel Billy's Wheelbag.

551
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 1: Oh wow, Okay, I've heard about this. I haven't been

552
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: able to go and check it out.

553
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 5: Colonel Willy's Bilbag, Colonel Billy's Wheelbag.

554
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 2: They make it tough to say on purpose.

555
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 5: And it's text Max and it's just some of the

556
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 5: best darn barbecue you've ever had.

557
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 2: Wow. And that's interesting because I don't normally consider barbecue

558
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 2: to be a text mex food.

559
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 5: You don't know what is it? What would you how

560
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 5: what genre of food would you classify barbecue as well?

561
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 2: I think it could be considered a genre in itself. Okay,

562
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 2: and this is just me. I'm not coming from the

563
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 2: same food background, so coach.

564
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 5: Wait, so you're saying that if you went to a

565
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 5: city and you wanted to know where the good barbecue

566
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 5: queue was, yes, you would, because if it were me,

567
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 5: I would just say, what's the good text?

568
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: Ma's the good text? Where the text?

Speaker 5: Where's the text mex At, knowing that the answer to

00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,280

668
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: but at the same time we understand that you're branching

669
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,760
Speaker 1: into advertising, actually becoming a spokesperson for a pretty big company.

Speaker 1: That I I didn't get the details.

695
00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 5: I'm not on screen. I'm not even in voice. I'm

696
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 5: it's a it's an animated The character is in an

697
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,840
Speaker 5: animated version of me. The mister Crystal Light is just

698
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 5: it's a cartoon character that I help them create.

699
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,479
Speaker 1: You put on the ping pung ballsuit and move around

700
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 1: and I sort of correct your movement.

701
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 5: Correct, But I don't do any of I don't do

702
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 5: the voice, and I don't and it doesn't look like me.

703
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 5: But I created the move the way the character moves.

704
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 5: I created his attitude. I created his point of view.

705
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 2: Who is who is doing the voice?

706
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 5: You know? I don't know. I don't know. I know

707
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 5: that I know that they were out to I want

708
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 5: to say, told me maguire, I don't know if he's

709
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 5: doing it or not.

710
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,319
Speaker 1: That would be I'm sorry, he can't do you.

711
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 2: That would be huge for it.

712
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 5: Well, he would be doing he wouldn't be doing me.

713
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 5: He would be doing mister mister.

714
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, if the attitude was created by you,

715
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 1: and you're gonna put Toby in there, it's gonna.

716
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 5: I agree, Well, he gives it a certain sincerity and

717
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:59,359
Speaker 5: earnestness that I can't do. I'm too I'm intrinsically too sarcastic.

718
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,280
Speaker 5: And I know that they were looking for mister Crystal

719
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:05,360
Speaker 5: Light to have a certain sincerity and earnestness about him.

720
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 5: They liked the physicality that I gave them. They liked

721
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 5: the the kind of the whole take that I know

722
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 5: that I created for the character. But I don't think

723
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 5: that when I did the voice, I don't actually don't

724
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 5: think it tested well. It's the honest truth that didn't

725
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 5: test well.

726
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 1: I thought of a joke while you were talking. If

727
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,959
Speaker 1: they want earnestness, why don't they get Jim Varney.

728
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:29,280
Speaker 2: Speak on that. Speak on that joke, Michael me speak

729
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:30,760
Speaker 2: on it. Yeah, I'd love to hear you speak.

730
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 4: Well.

731
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 5: I feel like it's a reference to Ernest, the character

732
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 5: of Ernest. Who who is that his name? And it

733
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,399
Speaker 5: just seems like a very funny joke. He took it.

734
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 5: He's using it's pun. It's a I guess it's a pun. Yeah,

735
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 5: And I think it's hilarious what you just did. I

00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 5: It's a big I mean it was, it was. It

772
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,719
Speaker 5: felt like a studio movie. But it's technically called independent.

773
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: Even for twelve mili.

774
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:55,960

Speaker 5: they'd have a new they'd have new turkey hands.

780
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 2: It's a special effect only in that it's like unusual

781
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 2: and good.

782
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 5: And this special effect is mostly just some touch ups

783
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 5: in posts, but it but it's just turkey.

784
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 1: So one last thing on the movie, I guess you

785
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 1: had some love scenes with Taylor Momson and I understand

786
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 1: they're not simulated, And I just want to talk about

787
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: is that uncomfortable for you? Is it old hat at this.

788
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,280
Speaker 5: Point, very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.

789
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 1: She's not attractive enough for you.

790
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 5: We were, well, we are. It is simulated. We're wearing

791
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 5: nude underwear, so there's no, it is totally similar. Okay,

792
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 5: that's no, that's a rumor that is I'm married, happily married. No,

793
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 5: we're wearing nude underwear in that, in all of those scenes.

794
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 2: So m hm, well, it's very realistic, it is.

795
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 5: No, and the and the director did a great job.

796
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 5: But and Taylor was great and very like. We had

797
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 5: a good time shooting the scenes. But it's it's not

798
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:20,760
Speaker 5: it's all acting.

799
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 2: Does your wife like to be on set for stuff

800
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 2: like that or does she like to let you do

801
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 2: your job and then when you come home you're her

802
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:32,720
Speaker 2: husband again?

803
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,919
Speaker 5: Yes, we're We keep we keep work and our home

804
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,720
Speaker 5: life very separate. So she does her thing, I do mine.

805
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,840
Speaker 5: And you know, she'll see the movie. Sure, when we

806
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 5: have a premiere, she'll come see it. And everything she

807
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 5: read the script and all that stuff, she knows all

808
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 5: about it. But now she wouldn't have been comfortable watching

809
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 5: the watching those scenes pretty intense, and I was uncomfortable.

810
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 5: To be honest, it's not easy doing doing a sex scene.

811
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 5: It's not easy, and it's it's uncomfortable. We had to

812
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 5: close the set so it's just me her and the director.

813
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:05,799
Speaker 5: And then that was.

814
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 1: It something good I've heard about sex scenes that Denzel

815
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,799
Speaker 1: Washington said, And then Joseph Gordon Levitt said that he

816
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 1: said it was, and I just in terms of talking

817
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,919
Speaker 1: about getting an erection during them, sure as to say

818
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:26,279
Speaker 1: to the female, I apologize if I do, and I

819
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 1: apologize if I don't. And when Joseph Gordon Levitt said that,

820
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,320
Speaker 1: Denzel said that, I thought, Man, what a line.

821
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 2: Can you explain that what that means to people who

822
00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 2: might not understand. I get it, I understand what it means,

823
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:49,319
Speaker 2: but if people don't, I would love to hear like

824
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 2: what that is talking about? Yeah?

825
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 1: Absolutely no, Yeah, I'm sorry thick headed of me to

826
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,320
Speaker 1: think that people would just get it. If you're built

827
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 1: in the way that Michael and I and Hayes as well,

828
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,680
Speaker 1: Yeah are Berts, Yes, and you become aroused during a

829
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 1: scene like that.

830
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,440
Speaker 2: Totally, It's obvious people are going.

831
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 1: To know it, and it can be a little uncomfortable,

832
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 1: a little uncomfy, but it can also be flattering for

833
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 1: a woman to know that.

834
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 2: She has aroused you like that.

835
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:29,280
Speaker 1: Although that's right, although dirty secret, it's never really about her,

836
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 1: but it can be offensive, uncomfortable. So so what they're

837
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:40,320
Speaker 1: saying is all my bases are covered. And just Gordon

838
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 1: Levitt said that Denzel said that that he apologizes if

839
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 1: he does or he apologized if he doesn't, So you

840
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: can't really be moves.

841
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 2: That's right, then that's what that means. Yeah, that's definitely right.

842
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 2: M M Michael, Thank you so much for you guys.
