One 13 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:32,200 Speaker 2: we stopped drinking as much alone. Two we stopped smoking 14 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 2: as much. Three we changed our diet.

Sanders. 498 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 3: The Biblio Dick stands for truth, justice and the literary way, 499 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 3: and that's why. 500 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 2: We love him and books and books. 501 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 3: Lord Buckley versus the Police. Wild and wooly, silly and psychedelic. 502 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 3: Lord Buckley was a force to be reckoned with. The 503 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 3: police couldn't get with his brand of loose entertainment, so 504 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 3: they made it their mission to take him down. 505 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 7: Boo. 506 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 3: Liam Gallagher versus Noel Gallagher. Webster's Dictionary defines rivalry as 507 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 3: the Gallagher brothers. These two are always at each other's throats, 508 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 3: both figuratively and literally. Their exploits wandered into the crime 509 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 3: zone when it got physical, which it often did. Here's 510 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 3: hoping these brothers find a way to smooth things out 511 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 3: or not. This was a really tight one, guys, lots 512 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 3: of great nominees. Good year for rivalries. It's not every 513 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 3: year that we see heated, long lasting feuds like these, 514 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 3: but the science of tabulation has determined John Charles Guilty 515 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 3: versus Biblio Dick is the winner. What congratulates to them both. 516 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 3: We're hoping Kim Sanders finds that storage locker one day. 517 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 2: I hope that the Gallagher brothers don't look back in anger. 518 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 3: Yeah that's true. 519 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, Sarah, I'm hoping that too, because anger is such 520 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 6: a dangerous emotion. 521 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 2: I mean, thank you, producer, Dave. 522 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 6: It just causes so much destruction. 523 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 8: Good. 524 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 6: I too have many hopes and many dreams, and that 525 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 6: is one of them. I also have dreams that my 526 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 6: arms are made of liquorice. Well, that's not one of 527 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 6: my hopes. That's just one of my bad dreams. Let's 528 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 6: go to commercial so we can do some costume changes. 529 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 6: When we come back, we'll get right back into the awards. 530 00:32:47,880 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 2: I'm gonna get some liquorice. 531 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 6: And besides, if this has to run long, we'll do 532 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 6: it right. Oh Ran, Welcome back world. We want to 533 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 6: take a moment of silence for those who've lost this 534 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 6: year after they were mentioned in passing on the show. 535 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 6: You can't see the scrolling list of names right now, 536 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 6: but know that it's impressive. And this is all very 537 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:33,959 Speaker 6: very heartfelt. Yeah, and we feel sometimes bad and sometimes 538 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 6: good for setting this all in motion. And a very 539 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 6: very special credit to Zarren Burnett, the man who killed 540 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 6: Henry Kissinger. 541 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 2: I just do it for the little people. 542 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 6: And now our last entry in the Best Song category. 543 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 6: This one captivated audience is all over when it appeared 544 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 6: in By the Power of the Moon Doctor Dante.

He wound up all 595 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,800 Speaker 2: over the TV, all right.

It's 604 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 2: a ridiculous crime for an even more ridiculous purpose. Howard 605 00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 2: X the Man Howard x Ak Kim jong un.
