Speaker 1: Welcome to Movie Crush, a production of I Heart Radio.
Speaker 1: Hey everybody, and welcome to Movie Crush. Many Crush Monday.
Speaker 1: But it's Wednesday and I'm sitting in real life in
Speaker 1: front of Noel. Feels weird, Dud. Does it sound different?
Speaker 1: Do you listeners at home? It probably does. They can't answer,
Speaker 1: you know, well, it's a hypothetical question. I think I
Speaker 1: have to be nicer to you in person. I just
Speaker 1: wanted to say something mean and I couldn't. Why would
Speaker 1: you want that, Chuck? Why? What is it? What have
Speaker 1: I done to you? What have I done to offend you?
Speaker 1: At you? I've seen you a couple of times, seen
Speaker 1: each other, not like this is the first time I've
Speaker 1: seen you in that long. It's weird, though, the pomp
Speaker 1: and circumstances, sitting around this table, staring at each other
Speaker 1: with these microphones. It feels different for someone, it does.
Speaker 1: I just don't want to spill this bong water Oka, Chuck,
Speaker 1: that's a coffee thermis. It's been a while I have
Speaker 1: on my list catch up with Noel? Have you I haven't.
Speaker 1: I still haven't been to the movie theater. I went
Speaker 1: to go. I think a couple of weeks ago when
Speaker 1: a Quiet Place two came out that's one I should
Speaker 1: go to, and um, just life got in the way.
Speaker 1: So I'm trying. I'm gonna try and get out there
Speaker 1: this week. But a lot of Marjal matinees yet. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I went with my kid to see an anime movie
Speaker 1: called Demon Slayer. The movie takes place on a train.
Speaker 1: It was cool. Um, it was weird. They didn't book
Speaker 1: middle seats like officially, but this big crew just came
Speaker 1: in and sat right next to us and I was
Speaker 1: just kind of like, what are you doing? They were
Speaker 1: not and they thought better of it before I had
Speaker 1: to say anything because I was like, I'm not I
Speaker 1: don't like confrontation. Um, but I will confront when confronted, Chuck,
Speaker 1: I will. But it was cool. It was a good experience. Um.
Speaker 1: I think it's just gonna get more and more normal. Um,
Speaker 1: as you know, time goes on. What's the deal with
Speaker 1: the matinees. Are they just like they can't It must
Speaker 1: be like a lot of restaurants. I heard a thing
Speaker 1: on NPR like they're not open for lunch because they
Speaker 1: can't afford to hire a lunch crew. Yet you know,
Speaker 1: they got and the Matinees are my jam. Yeah, Mattine's
Speaker 1: are cool. It's a nol. Ruby is in drama camp
Speaker 1: this week. They do they have a big thing they're
Speaker 1: working towards, like a like a like a play or
Speaker 1: a scene or something they do. They sent over the
Speaker 1: script um and it's about this grandmother who has superpowers
Speaker 1: because she eats vegetables and then there are vegetables playing roles,
Speaker 1: and um, she got cast I think kind of in
Speaker 1: the lead part as the grand kid. And I'm I
Speaker 1: have to like check out because I don't think there's
Speaker 1: any way that she can memorize lines like she just
Speaker 1: the focus isn't there at almost elf No. And we
Speaker 1: went over with her last night some and had her
Speaker 1: to sort of repeat the lines that Emily was doing
Speaker 1: for her and I was doing the other parts. But
Speaker 1: I have to check out emotionally and just be like
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. I don't care. I don't need her
Speaker 1: to quote unquote succeed and that's sure. I just need
Speaker 1: her to succeed in having a good, fun, good experience,
Speaker 1: otherwise it could taint drama for her for the rest
Speaker 1: of her life. Yeah, but it's pretty cute and fun.
Speaker 1: I think I've seen the Bunuel version of this act
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken. So what are the vegetables in question?
Speaker 1: Is it like there's a tomato, there's a cabbage, there's
Speaker 1: some black berries, um, you know. For inclusivity, I think
Speaker 1: there's corn. Diversity is the word I was looking for.
Speaker 1: She wanted to be corn because she loves corn on
Speaker 1: the cob more than anything else. Who doesn't. And we
Speaker 1: had to sort of tell it where you're like, listen, kid, o,
Speaker 1: you gotta you can't go in there with your mind
Speaker 1: to set on one part. And I said, you know,
Speaker 1: even if you never go on to even be interested
Speaker 1: in acting, you only do this. You can't go in
Speaker 1: there just wanting only to be the corn, because if
Speaker 1: you don't get the corn, you guys still got to
Speaker 1: do a good job being whatever they cast you as.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a lesson. Even like the most seasoned
Speaker 1: A list actors have to leave, they'll go out put
Speaker 1: themselves out there for this role. They got to act,
Speaker 1: and then they are tour director just like you know,
Speaker 1: I don't think this is a Brad Pitt part. And
Speaker 1: they give it to some like new news that someone
Speaker 1: might have said it Chuck, they give it to some
Speaker 1: up and comers instead of Brad Pit and so well, well,
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, I think I just read that the
Speaker 1: Devil Wears product was not initially supposed to be in
Speaker 1: Hathaway at all, but that Meryl Streep saw her in
Speaker 1: um whatever it was that sho oh broke back Mountain
Speaker 1: and was like, it's got to be this young lady.
Speaker 1: But all these A listers were way ahead of her
Speaker 1: and the running for that, so it can happen Hathaway
Speaker 1: and it is pretty great. Yeah, yeah, big fan, So
Speaker 1: Drama Camp concludes, Um, and she's just gay, man. It's
Speaker 1: you know how you know you've got a daughter and
Speaker 1: who actually sitting right outside the round, um find her
Speaker 1: way back? Yeah, she's okay. It's uh. With COVID there,
Speaker 1: you can't go in the room with him to drop
Speaker 1: them off or anything. And it's like literally someone will
Speaker 1: meet you on the sidewalk and walk your kid in,
Speaker 1: like someone your kid has never met, to walk you
Speaker 1: into this room with a bunch of people they've never met,
Speaker 1: and like that can go a lot of way ways
Speaker 1: for kids from scared to refusal. And she was just
Speaker 1: like she was out of there and happy, and that's
Speaker 1: just I don't know, there's something about that. She's so
Speaker 1: game and that just makes me so happy. Not that
Speaker 1: different from like a carpool pickup line at a school situation.
Speaker 1: But she's never done right, that's exactly, you know, so
Speaker 1: she's not used to them yet. Well that's awesome, man,
Speaker 1: I mean, but it felt great Senator in there, and
Speaker 1: she's having a really fun time so far. I think
Speaker 1: different endorphins are firing from like her little tiny backyard
Speaker 1: school that we did this year. We're so grateful for it.
Speaker 1: But I think if you do the same thing over
Speaker 1: and over and over, like your brain gets a little stale. Atrophies.
Speaker 1: In the last couple of weeks were kind of tough.
Speaker 1: I think they're even uh in the idyllic scene, and
Speaker 1: so she's just like lighting up now with all these
Speaker 1: new brain waves firing off. Yeah, it pretty great. It's
Speaker 1: it's it's yeah totally, and and it's need how also
Speaker 1: summer especially, God, I mean, this is really is the
Speaker 1: summer right to make the magic happen. You know, It's
Speaker 1: been like a year plus of like stagnation and dread
Speaker 1: and paranoia, and now it's like Oh my god, all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's like a whole new magical world
Speaker 1: out there in summer. Is you know infamously in movies,
Speaker 1: especially the time where you kind of come out of
Speaker 1: your shell and like, you know, discover your your true
Speaker 1: self or whatever. And I think that's happening for a
Speaker 1: lot of people. Yeah, it's especially kids. Um, definitely happening
Speaker 1: for my kid. I just booked my first trip NL.
Speaker 1: Nice are you going? Uh? Emily and I in August
Speaker 1: are going to Sonoma cool to Wine Country to see
Speaker 1: a Nico case uh with opening act a c Newman
Speaker 1: at a winery that's awesome outdoor show to winery. And
Speaker 1: so we're doing a night San Francisco, then a few
Speaker 1: days in Wine Country and seeing some live music. I
Speaker 1: wonder if we'll do like some duets because I love
Speaker 1: you know, The New Pornographers is one of my favorite.
Speaker 1: We'd like to think they would do a thing or
Speaker 1: two together up and do something from twin Cinema that
Speaker 1: bess Ian one of my favorite. Right, it would be
Speaker 1: weird if they didn't. I think so too. But I
Speaker 1: thought it was cool that she took him on the
Speaker 1: cool because his solo stuff is great too. He's yeah,
Speaker 1: he's really good, and I guess she's technically more famous
Speaker 1: than him at this point, right, was that kind of
Speaker 1: the deal. Yeah, he's the opener there. Yeah, yeah, he's great, man.
Speaker 1: He's I got tickets to Shaky Knees, which is our
Speaker 1: local in Atlanta. Yeah, I got him. He's headlining. Well,
Speaker 1: Stevie Nicks is headlining one night, which is pretty tight.
Speaker 1: And then the Strokes are doing one and they're fun

Speaker 1: hop duo. And then I mean, yeah it's killer my
Speaker 1: kids and lp um and then a bunch of great
Speaker 1: you know below the fold below the big the big
Speaker 1: text acts Yeah, yeah, um that I like, I'm trying
Speaker 1: to think of some big ones. Um. Nothing, nothing's popping
Speaker 1: off right now because I'm but you're gonna get stuff
Speaker 1: on the spot. I'm going, My me and my girlfriend
Speaker 1: are going, and I think my ex wife what I've
Speaker 1: told you, we're very tight as going, um, and I
Speaker 1: think we're all probably gonna hang. And I think Eden
Speaker 1: is going to come for the Strokes day. Gonna get
Speaker 1: her a day passed to go to the Strokes. That
Speaker 1: because she is dude, all of a sudden, like the Strokes,
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, She's just got this like music taste. Yeah,

Speaker 1: such a classic and nostalgic album for me. So really

Speaker 1: been been too long, can't wait, can't wait, can't wait?
Speaker 1: All right now? We got one but one segment and
Speaker 1: then we're gonna do a little stream this. I saw
Speaker 1: this on the Crushers page the other day. And this
Speaker 1: is from David Mills, one of our beloved crushers, and
Speaker 1: he has a coffee mug steaming by his names. That
Speaker 1: means the conversation starter conversations. Sorry, I guess what that
Speaker 1: means because he put this post that kind of lit
Speaker 1: up and think they've got many many answers to this question.
Speaker 1: Is there a movie or TV actor that you just
Speaker 1: don't understand how they could be as popular as they are?
Speaker 1: I would have loved it if you had just left
Speaker 1: it. It It just don't understand likes because he doesn't speak well,
Speaker 1: didn't They don't enunciates. Yeah, I just can't understand. Uh,
Speaker 1: he said, for for um, David, it's Tony Danz. Never
Speaker 1: understood the appeal for Tony Danze. He only kind of
Speaker 1: did Who's the Boss? Right? Oh? He was in taxi
Speaker 1: before that? Oh yeah, but I mean he's just kind
Speaker 1: of like that New York Jamo, you know, like that's
Speaker 1: kind of what he is. Mama Luke, Yeah, told me
Speaker 1: closer Tony Danza. Uh, Josh Owen says Julia Robert. She
Speaker 1: just irks me. Fortunately, the only movie she's in that
Speaker 1: I watch on the regular is steel Magnolias, and I
Speaker 1: can tolerate her in that. I don't know about that.
Speaker 1: These are big hot takes. Well, that's sort of what
Speaker 1: this category is designed to think the most is designed
Speaker 1: to do shock and awe. I know you like Julia.
Speaker 1: I mean we talked about pretty Woman how it definitely
Speaker 1: is a little bit dated, but she's kind of the
Speaker 1: original manic pixie dream girl in that where she sort
Speaker 1: of makes him changes life and like embrace randomness and
Speaker 1: you know, open to new experiences or whatever this is.
Speaker 1: I'm having a hard time reading this one. Tyler Burne
Speaker 1: says John c Riley. Oh, I mean he's just kind
Speaker 1: of great. And someone said, what is it about him
Speaker 1: that turns you off? I'm just curious, and Tyler said,
Speaker 1: I'm not too sure to be honest. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, if you don't like someone, you don't like someone.
Speaker 1: But I mean he's odd. I'll give you that. He's
Speaker 1: got an odd look he plays. He's kind of off
Speaker 1: the wall oddball characters. Maybe he just rubs him the
Speaker 1: wrong way or something. You know, I can see them.
Speaker 1: Nicole Marie says, Toby Maguire, he's got a pretty punchable face.
Speaker 1: I like him. I like him fine, but as have
Speaker 1: been around much lately? Has he? He really hasn't. What's
Speaker 1: he been in lately? I don't know. He's maybe started
Speaker 1: a new pussy posse and he's just rolling around with them.
Speaker 1: You know, that makes him pretty unlikable. Actually, did you
Speaker 1: remember that David Blaine was also in the Puss real
Speaker 1: life stuff? Yeah, it was him and DiCaprio. Uh, what's
Speaker 1: his name, Lucas Hoss I think was his name? Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I feel like that the guy from Entourage, it
Speaker 1: really was the manager totally was him. Was in there?
Speaker 1: Wait before anybody even knew who then that guy was like,
Speaker 1: how was he in the Pussy? I heard that the
Speaker 1: other day or not, I mean recently, and I was like, really,
Speaker 1: it's weird. Wayne Kat's is Jillian Anderson whispering almost every
Speaker 1: line of dialogue to Ed Gravitas is not acting? Oh okay, boy,
Speaker 1: so many hot takes. Although earl pal Caroline guest and
Speaker 1: says it almost ruined Hannibal for me. I know she's
Speaker 1: perfectly capable of speaking at a normal volume. It's just
Speaker 1: such a weird acting choice. She's the therapist, right, I
Speaker 1: guess so, I mean, wait, am I thinking the wrong person? This?
Speaker 1: Or this is X files? Right? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah? For sure?
Speaker 1: Does she whisper lines a lot? I don't think so
Speaker 1: much in X Files. I think more and maybe some
Speaker 1: of her other roles, you know where she actually plays British?
Speaker 1: She is British. I didn't make it. Well, she's sort
Speaker 1: of is she British? Though? I think the deal is
Speaker 1: she lived in England or something, or maybe it was
Speaker 1: from there. But like sometimes it's a very American accent
Speaker 1: and sometimes it gets made fun of because shows into
Speaker 1: her British accent, sort of like Madonna after being married
Speaker 1: to guy Richie for a year. So far Madonna got
Speaker 1: all handle her. Can I handle that? Come on, Madonna,
Speaker 1: we know who you are. She's a material girl. Greta
Speaker 1: Mansfield says Andy dick ug. I don't know. I mean
Speaker 1: I think a lot. I think a lot of people
Speaker 1: don't like anti technie. Come on, that's sort of his thing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: not be likable. I'm sure. Surprise there's no Tom Green's
Speaker 1: on here. Surprised no one's railing on it. We'll see
Speaker 1: the day is young. Um, Jeremy Fuller says, even his
Speaker 1: name as a deterrent, and David Mills chimes in and says,
Speaker 1: does any does anyone like him? Apparently Joe Rogan does,
Speaker 1: is what Doug Reid says. I didn't know that they
Speaker 1: were vals, Okay. I based most of my life choices
Speaker 1: on things Joe Rogan likes. Dan Maynard says Melissa McCarthy.
Speaker 1: I know I'm in the minority thinking this, but good lord,
Speaker 1: she just frustrates me, all right, that's honest an. I
Speaker 1: feel like she's been jumping the shark a little bit lately.
Speaker 1: She's been doing a little too much like that superhero
Speaker 1: when she did with Octavia Spencer. Yeah, I think their
Speaker 1: best season. Yeah, it did not look good and she
Speaker 1: might have fallen into that trap of like all of
Speaker 1: a sudden super hot and just did too much, too much,
Speaker 1: little less, not too discerning. Did you see that drama
Speaker 1: that she did. It's called um can you ever forgive me?
Speaker 1: Where she like forges the letters or whatever? I did not.
Speaker 1: It's her and Richard E. Grant, who was in with
Speaker 1: Nail and I. I saw the trailers. Awesome. He is
Speaker 1: just excellent. I wanted to do more stuff like that,
Speaker 1: but she's doing all this real broad screwball comedy, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, oh, can you please just do something
Speaker 1: more like that? Yeah, one for them, one for her
Speaker 1: is should be the approach if we were her manager.
Speaker 1: You know, we have really good advice for Melissa call Us.
Speaker 1: By the way, Dan Maynard, I've been pronouncing it wrong.
Speaker 1: I've been saying Maynard because I'm American, he pointed out
Speaker 1: very sweetly. It's rhymes of card. Sounds like card. Is
Speaker 1: he is he a brit No. I think Dan's Australian
Speaker 1: because he's he did our metal. Uh, that's Dan. I knew, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I knew that. But Dan was very sweet. He sent, uh,
Speaker 1: he sent Ruby a gift from Australia because he knows
Speaker 1: she loves Bluey and he's in here a couple of
Speaker 1: blue books and blue stickers and I just got them yesterday.
Speaker 1: And it was very very sweet, so sweet, really lovely guy.
Speaker 1: We we He actually reached out to me to make
Speaker 1: sure I was okay with him doing the metal cover
Speaker 1: of the theme, because he knew I had composed it.
Speaker 1: I know. That's when we were really very kind. And
Speaker 1: while I'm talking about this stuff and how great the
Speaker 1: Crushers are are very own. Tanya Collette, one of our
Speaker 1: great beloved crushers, had surgery hysterected me a couple of
Speaker 1: days ago. As we record this, this will come out
Speaker 1: a little bit later. But um, she's doing great and everyone.
Speaker 1: I didn't know what was happening, or I would have
Speaker 1: chipped in, but people chipped in and center, like I
Speaker 1: think in edible arrangement, some flowers and it's just it's
Speaker 1: just the best man, such good people. We're thinking about
Speaker 1: Tanya for sure. For sure. No, I think it's had Tonia.
Speaker 1: I had a lovely Crusher encounter. Oh, it's a it's
Speaker 1: a person who's really become a good, true friend. Honestly,
Speaker 1: we've been kind of messaging on and off online for
Speaker 1: a couple of years. Christie Caroline Um it was a
Speaker 1: regular crusher And she passed through Atlanta and on a trip.
Speaker 1: She's really into wildlife preservation, Uh, specifically with apes. Um
Speaker 1: or Yeah, apes, I think that's right. Uh. And she
Speaker 1: was going to a ape the Habitat in Florida, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and ended up passing through here. Uh. And we hung
Speaker 1: out and a ton of the crew, a lot of
Speaker 1: work folks, Lauren and Ben and she met a lot
Speaker 1: of the when I dipped in ship. I don't know
Speaker 1: why I didn't think it was a very like we.
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure what we were gonna do. It was
Speaker 1: you don't really come out, Chuck. I should have asked.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Well, uh I always ask, but with my
Speaker 1: schedule and my kid, it's like, that's what I will
Speaker 1: do now for me, you never know if I can,
Speaker 1: I would love anyway. We'll talk about that later. But yeah,
Speaker 1: it was really fun. She mat a handful of of
Speaker 1: the other you know. It's like we have a group
Speaker 1: that goes out every Friday night like work people, and
Speaker 1: uh god, you are invited. Um and and it was
Speaker 1: really great. We just like we hung out. I had
Speaker 1: a few beers. Um. I maybe had a few too
Speaker 1: many beers and ended up leaving my car and she
Speaker 1: very kindly gave me a lift home and we had
Speaker 1: nice conversations on my porch and then she took off
Speaker 1: and was back to St. Louis the next great were
Speaker 1: you like? What is it about apes? Anyway? Apes? Right now?
Speaker 1: We had a nice what do they got, Chuck? I
Speaker 1: am a cuddly, friendly drunk. I know. As it turns out,
Speaker 1: I've seen you with a couple in your in your belly,
Speaker 1: Becca Loo, says Amy Schumer. She's a little self. I
Speaker 1: could see how people don't like her, maybe entitled seeing me.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe it's just because if her father,
Speaker 1: maybe that's what bugs me. Chuck Oh wait, no, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that's not her dad, Chuck Schumer, Senator, Yeah, bro wait
Speaker 1: have you told me that before? I don't think so.
Speaker 1: It's just the thing that's that's the truth. I don't
Speaker 1: believe you. Okay, I'm looking at up. Let's see what
Speaker 1: the internet has to say about relatives. He's a cousin. No,
Speaker 1: it says cousin, cousin. I could have store you with her. Yeah, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: well fair enough, well related though very related. So you
Speaker 1: don't like her because obstruction? No, no, no, no no, I'm
Speaker 1: just saying she's maybe it's this idea, this notion that
Speaker 1: she comes from, you know, blue blood, blue blood, old
Speaker 1: money royalty or got. I think she's fine. She been
Speaker 1: in movies. Is she really just do her character TV show? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean she did that, um that one really funny
Speaker 1: movie with Yeah that was funny, hater, that was really good.
Speaker 1: Quite enjoyed. That's one of my favorite jokes in a
Speaker 1: movie the last few years, when she's talking to hater
Speaker 1: who works with doctors without borders and she keeps calling
Speaker 1: it doctors with borders. I always thought that was really funny. Lote, Jason,
Speaker 1: this is funny, Jason Byfield said, my joke from earlier,
Speaker 1: he said, Tony dan Danza seems okay. Elton John wants
Speaker 1: to hold them closer, so it can't be all bad, No,
Speaker 1: Jenny gernan Keller says Claire Danes. I like her too,
Speaker 1: She's great. I have a big crush on her. I
Speaker 1: was about to say, and that was like age appropriate. No,
Speaker 1: she was older than me. I think when I was
Speaker 1: watching My so called life, I was probably in like
Speaker 1: middle school. I guess that had a big crush on her.
Speaker 1: Draft Yeah, I still do. I think I was so
Speaker 1: mad at Jordan Catalano. He treated her like trash. I know,
Speaker 1: never forgave Jared Letto. Also, it turns out Jared Letto
Speaker 1: kind of a real life Jordan Catalano. I'm weal confused
Speaker 1: now what's happening with the lights out here? They keep
Speaker 1: going off. It's interesting. I think they're on a timer
Speaker 1: or something weird. Aaron Amoro scene says, Steve Martin baffles me.
Speaker 1: I just don't get how seemingly the entire world thinks
Speaker 1: he's hilarious. He always plays an annoying, pompous jerk. Interesting.
Speaker 1: He's created a lot of back talk, backchat, what's what's
Speaker 1: your what's your Steve Martin perspective. I think he's great,
Speaker 1: not like Steve Martin. I mean I never thought he was.
Speaker 1: He wasn't the most drop dead l O L guy
Speaker 1: for me as as a stand up but I certainly
Speaker 1: loved Xan and Three Amigos, and I think his his
Speaker 1: real acting is is really great. He was great in
Speaker 1: Grand Canyon and what was the the one he did
Speaker 1: the drama he did with was it Spanish Prisoner? No,
Speaker 1: that wasn't him the Spanish Prisoner? Anythink I don't know that.
Speaker 1: Here's David Mamma. Here's a hot take for you, Chuck.
Speaker 1: I think he's a better banjo player than he's a comedian.
Speaker 1: He's a great banjo player, Um, he really and he's
Speaker 1: like one of the greats, like one of the great
Speaker 1: living banjo players. I think doesn't get enough credit for that.
Speaker 1: What is it called the Steep Canyon Rangers or something
Speaker 1: like that as the name of his group. Yeah, I'd
Speaker 1: like to see him do his his on stage thing.
Speaker 1: Like Steve Martin. He's got a masterclass on comedy. Oh
Speaker 1: does he you know those videos? Yeah? Yeah, Well, apparently
Speaker 1: Aaron doesn't think that Steve Martin should be teaching that class.
Speaker 1: I told you I think one time that he used
Speaker 1: to and I'm sure still does have the the card
Speaker 1: he gives people in lieu of like a photograph or
Speaker 1: selfier and autograph that says this is a card certified
Speaker 1: as that. I had a genuine personal interaction with Steve
Speaker 1: Martin and found him to be like charming and funny
Speaker 1: and handsome or something. He would like give that to people.
Speaker 1: He's what you'd call very dry. I think his humor right,
Speaker 1: wouldn't you say, yeah, he's dry, But yet he's weirdly
Speaker 1: universally appealing. I think it's because he's kind of like
Speaker 1: kind of middle of the road a little bit, you know,
Speaker 1: and always Kinna stayed out of the limelight. You've never
Speaker 1: heard a lot about Steve Martin. Paul scron Sky, sorry
Speaker 1: about butchering that leaned into that says Beyonce. She's been
Speaker 1: a movie so Ac Counts and Jack Black, Oh breaking
Speaker 1: my heart? What what? What was Beyonce? Well, she was
Speaker 1: in dream Girls, but sure, Jeremy Fullers's Parker Posey. Oh,
Speaker 1: I knew someone in college who briefly lived in New
Speaker 1: York City and worked in a small bookstore. Posey came
Speaker 1: in one day and made some purchase, but didn't per
Speaker 1: just Is. But seemed to Mifft that this acquaintance of
Speaker 1: mine didn't have a bigger reaction to Parker Posey choosing
Speaker 1: to come into this bookstore and grace everyone with her
Speaker 1: presence sounds like this person is holding the grudge. I
Speaker 1: take those stories of the grain assault, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Yeah, Jeremy, Jeremy, Jeremy's friend or Jeremy's acquaintance.
Speaker 1: And how do you how do you even read that
Speaker 1: on somebody like you didn't get enough reaction? You know? She?
Speaker 1: How do you? I don't understand what that would feel like. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is all this sounds very happy. I think Parker
Speaker 1: Posey is a treasure, although probably capable of being a
Speaker 1: bit of a pill. But you know what, on a
Speaker 1: bad day, we all are yah um, Curtis King says,
Speaker 1: any actor with the last named Franco, all right, I
Speaker 1: guess James. Or here's the other one, el Roy Franco.
Speaker 1: That's him, Zach Poynter. When a roll Pal says Seth Rogan, Oh,
Speaker 1: I love Seth Rogue too. I heard it. He was
Speaker 1: on Fresh Air recently, you talking this memoir that he
Speaker 1: just came out with, and I was listening to him
Speaker 1: talk for like twenty minutes before I realized it was him.
Speaker 1: I thought it was an old seasoned man and he
Speaker 1: wasn't it. Seth Rogan's his voice is very and he
Speaker 1: laughs a lot, and he's just a delight. I really,
Speaker 1: I think he's great. He grew up in it's really
Speaker 1: progressive like family, like they like hung out on this
Speaker 1: like lesbian commune, and he has all these great stories
Speaker 1: like growing up with its like family, and I think
Speaker 1: in in l A or at least okay maybe so
Speaker 1: yeah that makes Canadian, that makes sense. But it was
Speaker 1: just like like like very like almost comically progressive, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, like his parents and stuff, and
Speaker 1: it was really neat hearing him talk about him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think he's awesome. That's him. That's him after, you know,
Speaker 1: hitting a massive bomb. Diana Ratlo when her old friend says,
Speaker 1: I do not care for Julianne Moore, I don't get it.
Speaker 1: He's are all just breaking my heart. The Dane droving
Speaker 1: Gail Kunts Amy Poehler. Yeah, I said it. I don't care. Ah.
Speaker 1: Just when kuns is pulling me in, she'll say something
Speaker 1: like this. All of these are like, you know, people,
Speaker 1: It's it's like someone saying they don't like the Beatles
Speaker 1: or something. You know, It's just like it's they're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: how do you know? Okay, anyway, let's talk. We don't
Speaker 1: have to go there. But it's it's like something is
Speaker 1: so popular and you it just doesn't connect with you,
Speaker 1: and you feel like the odd person out. So I
Speaker 1: think that's what these reactions are here. You know, I
Speaker 1: don't think they hate the person. They're just like it
Speaker 1: just doesn't do it for me, and I feel like
Speaker 1: everyone thinks I'm crazy. But I have opinions too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, with Josh and the Beatles, he has very
Speaker 1: very interesting and specific music tastes in surprising like he
Speaker 1: wouldn't give two ships about like the Beatles of the
Speaker 1: Rolling Stones Ah, it's interesting to talk to music. I
Speaker 1: can I never know what he's gonna, what's gonna come
Speaker 1: out of his mouth with music? Interesting? Yeah, it is
Speaker 1: really And I don't know that we've ever vibed on
Speaker 1: music in particular, but now I'm going to try next
Speaker 1: time I see him. Yeah, it's and and with movies,
Speaker 1: he has really just sort of interesting tasting And I'm
Speaker 1: not being magnanimous. I think it's genuinely it's sort of baffling, right,
Speaker 1: So some of the stuff he loves and hates is
Speaker 1: so baffling to me. But it's like, yeah, well that's
Speaker 1: that's who he likes and loves. It's really interesting. Let
Speaker 1: me see here, David Smith says Adam Sandler, and of
Speaker 1: his post Eve rolls. I mean, sure, I think that's
Speaker 1: a pretty weirdly universal opinion. And yet he's just so
Speaker 1: popular and just makes movie movie for Netflix. But the
Speaker 1: end of Punch Trunk Love isn't a fucking insanely great Yeah,
Speaker 1: and Uncut gems like he's capable. Michelle Kendricks is Mark Wahlberg.
Speaker 1: I don't get it, Like I'm like marky Mark, how
Speaker 1: do you feel about the Funky Bunch? I could take him,
Speaker 1: relieve him. Not funky enough for me. Uh, Steve Carrell.
Speaker 1: This is from Duffy Onuns and Steve Carrell in any comedy.
Speaker 1: He's a good dramatic actor, just not that funny to me.
Speaker 1: That is a hot take, the hottest of takes. Look like,
Speaker 1: who does he look like? Which one does he? Steve
Speaker 1: Carell's from the Office. That's Steve Correll. Yes, the fucking David's.
Speaker 1: Brent Michael mcgree says it probably won't be popular. But
Speaker 1: Maggie Jillen Hall, I feel like every role of here
Speaker 1: and she's just overacting. It takes me out of the movie,
Speaker 1: makes me feel bad because she seems like an all
Speaker 1: around good person. I like Mag's I like all those
Speaker 1: Jillen Halls. And Barry says Keanu, he looks nice, but
Speaker 1: he's never been able to act. Oh my god, I
Speaker 1: was just watching a thing on Dracula, Bram Stoker's Dracula.
Speaker 1: You know, he notoriously is horrible in that because he
Speaker 1: can't really do a British accent. He can really only
Speaker 1: do a little out of his leaky but um interesting
Speaker 1: movie and the story behind that movie is really interesting too,
Speaker 1: because it was like what's his name? Coppola's company, and
Speaker 1: American Zoetrub was like going out of business. Basically, they
Speaker 1: needed a big hit, so they made Godfather three and
Speaker 1: then they made I Need to Receive I Need to
Speaker 1: rewatch that. I think I had some moments, right, It
Speaker 1: definitely had some moments. And it also started the whole
Speaker 1: um monster resurgence, like Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Wolf. You know,
Speaker 1: like a lot of those kind of classic None of
Speaker 1: those were very good, not really looking back. Matthias Larsen's
Speaker 1: his Colin Farrell. I just can't stand his dough eyed
Speaker 1: man child face. And I've never been moved, convinced or
Speaker 1: impressed by any of his acting. And he's freaking everywhere
Speaker 1: these days. I like him, all right, Yeah, he's yeah,
Speaker 1: he's fine. I mean like him, are in the in
Speaker 1: the right thing? I'm never where. I gotta go check
Speaker 1: out that Colin Farrell movie. Colin Farrell not the same
Speaker 1: as Will Farrell, No different guy. And also Steve Correll.
Speaker 1: I don't know why I brain farted on him because
Speaker 1: I just think of him as Michael Scott h Colin Farrell,
Speaker 1: Is there are your sky yep? Yep, he's he's good.
Speaker 1: He's when he's good. I like in Bruge. Have you
Speaker 1: seen in Bruge? Great movie? I need to see that again.
Speaker 1: It's been a while. It holds up. Brian Jensen says
Speaker 1: Dustin Hoffman. I can just always see the strings when
Speaker 1: he's acting, and I like that expression. Actually that's really good,
Speaker 1: like the puppet se strings. Yeah, I like that. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna steal that. Yeah, I mean the graduates just great.
Speaker 1: I think Marathon Man's great. Uh, some of his later
Speaker 1: stuff I could take re leave like Wag the Dogs cool.
Speaker 1: But he was also out at as a creep, so
Speaker 1: was he? Yeah? I didn't know that. Yeah he was.
Speaker 1: He had some pretty poor behavior with why he doesn't
Speaker 1: act as much anymore, ladies. Uh maybe, I mean the
Speaker 1: last thing he was in, it was kind of when
Speaker 1: all this stuff was coming out, was the the No
Speaker 1: A Bomb Back thing, the what was it called the
Speaker 1: manco Witz Brothers or something like that diary or yeah
Speaker 1: about that wasn't I can't think of that. I know
Speaker 1: you're talking about. Um Okay, I guess I didn't realize
Speaker 1: that had happened. All right, and we're gonna finish up
Speaker 1: with Laura Allen with Jennifer Aniston. Huh, I love jen Aniston.
Speaker 1: I think she's great. It was great in leprechn for
Speaker 1: funny and super talented. I get the joke noll she
Speaker 1: was in it, I know, but I mean, was she great?
Speaker 1: I think it's great about lepricn Um Lepricn in the Hood. Now,
Speaker 1: on the other hand, is that a real movie? All right?
Speaker 1: There's also Lepricn in Space. They went everywhere with the
Speaker 1: Alepricn franchise. There's probably no racist jokes in lepricn in
Speaker 1: the Hood. I would not imagine. I know that they
Speaker 1: put they kill the lepric spoiler alert they killed the
Speaker 1: leprechn by putting four leaf clovers in his weed. Okay,
Speaker 1: I like that. I'm on board now all right, now,
Speaker 1: we're gonna finish up a little stream. This I watched
Speaker 1: on the recommendation of a crusher I can't remember who.
Speaker 1: It was nineteen seventy one on Apple TV. It is
Speaker 1: a I think eight part music slash history documentary about
Speaker 1: the year nine and the music that came out that
Speaker 1: year and what a pivotal year it was for music
Speaker 1: and some of the most classic Albums of All Time
Speaker 1: came out in nineteen seventy one. Hit me with a
Speaker 1: few choice Well, um, going from memory here, Carol King's Tapestry,
Speaker 1: Joni Mitchell's Blue Madman Across the Water. Uh. Um, which
Speaker 1: stones was it? Um? I would have been exile in
Speaker 1: Main Street, I think. Uh. One of the big Bob
Speaker 1: Marley records. Um. Uh What's going On by Marvin Gay Uh.
Speaker 1: Aretha Franklin one of her biggest records. It was like
Speaker 1: it was really pretty staggering, and Elton John is in
Speaker 1: it talking. He was like it was He's like every
Speaker 1: Tuesday at the record store, he said. Looking back, he said,
Speaker 1: there were three or four albums a week that came
Speaker 1: out that are now looked at as some of the
Speaker 1: most classic albums of all time. Well, it's such a
Speaker 1: pivotal time just like even just like socially and culturally,
Speaker 1: right because it's like, you know, Martin Luther King was dead.
Speaker 1: The civil rights movement obviously, you know, began in earnest
Speaker 1: and then there it was continuing. But it was different
Speaker 1: because it was almost like the sixties were over, the
Speaker 1: hippies kind of lost, you know, and it was sort
Speaker 1: of a sad Time, but also hopeful time, um, you
Speaker 1: know of like hopefully moving forward. But it was hard
Speaker 1: and it was very dark in many ways, and so
Speaker 1: a lot of those records I think reflected that. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I hope it's amazing. Man, Janice Joplin's Pearl, It's Easy Time.
Speaker 1: Some of these I don't know, Like I don't know Tapestry.
Speaker 1: I really need to listen. That would ask an album,
Speaker 1: like I know that you know the tunes and stuff, Um,
Speaker 1: I need to listen to them as albums. Looking now,
Speaker 1: am I gonna have to get Apple TV subscription? There's
Speaker 1: so many things I've been hearing that I really do
Speaker 1: want to see. I just resent having to get another
Speaker 1: Olive Carte subscription. Yeah, I mean I think it's pretty great.
Speaker 1: Als Cooper's uh love It to Death came out there.
Speaker 1: He's playing chick Knees. Really, you know, that was the
Speaker 1: name of the band, and then he just took it
Speaker 1: over as his name. The name of the band was
Speaker 1: Alice Cooper and then he just sort of left those
Speaker 1: guys and became Alice Cooper's uh, and they were they
Speaker 1: were pretty great. They were a different, different kind of
Speaker 1: band like back then. Um, here's the deal with the
Speaker 1: documentary though, it was it was really good, but it
Speaker 1: was a little uh. I think the structure could have
Speaker 1: been a little tighter. Seemed a little all over the
Speaker 1: place and a little unwieldy. I'm not sure, but in
Speaker 1: the end I would recommend it just get you know,
Speaker 1: you gotta like be ready to kind of hop all
Speaker 1: over the place. Very good though. And then I watched
Speaker 1: Almost Famous again the other night, the first time I've
Speaker 1: seen it in a long time. Holds up pretty well.
Speaker 1: A few sort of really cornball moments that Cameron Crow
Speaker 1: was just known for that I was kind of like,
Speaker 1: come on, but I thought I held up well. Uh.
Speaker 1: And then I watched the first episode of Loki's Awesome.
Speaker 1: I liked it a lot. It's great. I thought it
Speaker 1: was pretty great. It's so funny. There's a scene put
Speaker 1: it in both of our necks. It's so good. There's
Speaker 1: a scene where it's it's like Owen Wilson, you know,
Speaker 1: spoilers maybe or no, no, not really at all. No,
Speaker 1: Owen Wilson at his Owen Wilson East. Yeah, he was awesome.
Speaker 1: He's perfectly cast, but he really is doing that thing
Speaker 1: that he does. Yeah. Um, but he's walking with Loki.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna this is not spoiler at all, but
Speaker 1: you see this incredible space town, this stuff really cool
Speaker 1: shot and it looks like the work of the illustrator
Speaker 1: and cartoonists Mobius. And then the guy's name is revealed
Speaker 1: to be Mobius. It was definitely a nod. Me and
Speaker 1: my friend were like nerves and we called the references. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I quite enjoyed Locky. I thought it was a lot
Speaker 1: of yeah, and then a character that I didn't like love.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think you kind of want to hate
Speaker 1: Loki is sort of the point of Burke. But I
Speaker 1: was kinding. I mean, do I need a low key show?
Speaker 1: But it was. It was awesome. It's a different it
Speaker 1: was a different spin on it entirely than what I
Speaker 1: was expecting. I thought it was really fun. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: can't wait to see where it goes. These more our
Speaker 1: old TV shows are just fucking lights out. They're excellent.
Speaker 1: They're great. Like you you like The Winter Soldier. When
Speaker 1: I think better than I loved it, I need to
Speaker 1: dig back in. I sort of lost me, but I
Speaker 1: need to buy your recommending. And of course both of
Speaker 1: us were head heels. One division things amazing. Uh, what
Speaker 1: you've been watching Mayor of Easttown? Bro Oh, you got
Speaker 1: on it. We watched about fifteen minutes of the first
Speaker 1: episode and had to stop. I think maybe we're gonna
Speaker 1: get back into it. But I think it was just
Speaker 1: like at the time, it seemed like there was a
Speaker 1: lot of I mean at the time. This is only
Speaker 1: a month ago when it came out, but there are
Speaker 1: a couple of shows that were portrayed sort of people
Speaker 1: like uh, sort of that like sort of hillbilly cheek thing,
Speaker 1: and I felt like it was going down that road,
Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't know if I can
Speaker 1: watch this. It's heavy. Um, but it is a really
Speaker 1: really cool, twisty mystery and just a really great character
Speaker 1: study kind of happening in parallel. So it's like Mayor,
Speaker 1: the character that that Kate Winslet for trays, is really
Speaker 1: going through it in life. Lots of crazy stuff happened
Speaker 1: to her, and um, she's also the detective, like the
Speaker 1: one detective in this small suburban Philly kind of bedroom community,
Speaker 1: I guess, but it's you know, it's kind of hillbilly's
Speaker 1: and it's kind of small and everybody knows everybody, which
Speaker 1: makes the murder mystery all the more interesting and complicated.
Speaker 1: And is it a really great murder mystery? Yeah, yeah, alright,
Speaker 1: it's because we really love you. Never in a million
Speaker 1: years guess where it goes? All right, I gotta do it.
Speaker 1: I gotta put my foot in the water. The water
Speaker 1: And what is it she does? She kind of got
Speaker 1: ragged on for doing like her owes or I can't remember,
Speaker 1: there's there's one like over enunciated a specific Philly accent,
Speaker 1: but like she kind of gotten yelled at for doing
Speaker 1: it because she's British, but like everyone's doing it and
Speaker 1: the whole show, and it seemed pretty legit to me.
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I think she kills it. I
Speaker 1: really really loved him. Did you finish it? Alright? So
Speaker 1: me like eight episodes? I think maybe seven episodes? What
Speaker 1: else you got anything that one? Um? I recently, with
Speaker 1: a couple of buddies, rewatched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless
Speaker 1: Mind for the first time in many years. I was
Speaker 1: just floored. I had forgotten a lot about it, and
Speaker 1: it kind of all came back to me and just
Speaker 1: reminded me, like it's just such an unflinchingly kind of
Speaker 1: honest look at like relationships and interpersonal anything, you know,
Speaker 1: and it's like how we're defined by our memories and
Speaker 1: when you start to lose those, you start to kind
Speaker 1: of lose who you are. It started to make me
Speaker 1: think of, like, God, Alzheimer's must just be a waking nightmare,
Speaker 1: because it kind of is portraying what it's like when
Speaker 1: he starts to lose like his sense of this very
Speaker 1: important relationship. You know, you should listen to the episode
Speaker 1: I did on that with Pam our own. I love Pam.
Speaker 1: We had a really really great conversation about that movie,
Speaker 1: and um, I want to have Pam back. She won't
Speaker 1: come back on you come back on. I mean she's
Speaker 1: always busy and that I just I think Pam's gray. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know he's super super well, but everything counter
Speaker 1: I've had with her and also just for work, lovely,
Speaker 1: lovely person. I'll check that out. All right, Well, let's
Speaker 1: wrap this one up. I'm gonna watch Mayor of East Down,
Speaker 1: the Mayor of Easttown, Mayor of Easton, Mayor Mayor of
Speaker 1: Easttown of east Town. Oh. It's also directed by Craig Zobel,
Speaker 1: who you may be familiar with. He went to U
Speaker 1: g A. I don't know that. He's like Buddies with
Speaker 1: a lot of the elephants, six people the like, like,
Speaker 1: um what else? He did a movie called Umu Compliance
Speaker 1: That was a very small movie about a young woman
Speaker 1: who kind of gets held hostage in the back of
Speaker 1: a fast food restaurants, like sort of a bottle moneu
Speaker 1: see for Zachariah this wait was the back of the restaurant?
Speaker 1: Was that like, uh, I think I know that movie. Dude,
Speaker 1: it's good. I'm looking it up real quick because if
Speaker 1: it's the one I'm thinking of, it was pretty horrifying. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's an unpleasant watch. But this strips Okay, it's great,
Speaker 1: but it's like, yeah, it's hard. But anyway. Heather Macintosh,
Speaker 1: who is an Athens alum for that whole music scene,
Speaker 1: has done a lot of scores for his his movies,
Speaker 1: and um, yeah, this is his first kind of big,
Speaker 1: big thing with you know, huge A list talent. Oh
Speaker 1: he did the Hunt. I didn't see that. That That was
Speaker 1: supposed to be good. It was supposed to be good,
Speaker 1: but it got kind of canceled because of like, sure
Speaker 1: it was, isn't it about like Republicans and I think
Speaker 1: it's liberals hunting Republicans hunting. I mean, it's not meant
Speaker 1: to be taken seriously of course, not um. One other
Speaker 1: thing before we wrap up. I forgot because she's in
Speaker 1: this two Jeans Smart, you know, the actress Jean Smart lover.
Speaker 1: I want to see that new show she's that's awesome.
Speaker 1: I watched the whole thing in it has it's great
