And I just played over and 85 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: over and over again. But I wish I would have 86 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:30,679 Speaker 1: learned the miniments. 87 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 2: That had been fun. Yeah, it's complicated. D Boone was 88 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 2: an excellent guitarist. Rip uh if you ever want to 89 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 2: learn us easy song and guitar.

Anyways, huge episode, like you said 92 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 2: at the top, but really I have two questions quickly, 93 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 2: quick questions here. 94 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 3: Okay. 95 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 2: Number one, did you hear that still in Scars Guard 96 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 2: called Ingmar Bergman a Nazi? Have you heard that before? 97 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:01,119 Speaker 1: No? 98 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: He said Ingmar Bergmann was a Nazi during World War Two? 99 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 2: And he's the only person he knows that cried when 100 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 2: Hitler died. What And I'd never heard this before. I 101 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 2: was just curious if you had ever heard any rumors 102 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: that Ingmar Bergmann was like a Nazi sympathizer. 103 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: How old is Stellam Scars Guard, by the way, was 104 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: he around to see that? 105 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 2: Here's the here's the thing, he said, he's he's seventy four, 106 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 2: so he was born after Hitler died. So I don't know. 107 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 2: I he did not see it. He didn't see him cry. 108 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 2: So I'm kind of like, maybe you heard it secondhand. 109 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm no, it's just a bummer because 110 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 2: I love Ingmar Bergmann. I have all of his movies 111 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 2: from the Criterion collection, literally all of them. I have 112 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 2: a huge set. And it's just hard for me to 113 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 2: someone who like is such a poet of human nature 114 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 2: to be a Nazi. That's just hard for me to reconcile. 115 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 2: I guess. 116 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 1: So anyways, well, one time, my grandfather, this is not 117 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: for nothing. Maybe we cut this. I don't know, we'll see. 118 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 1: Once my grandfather told me when I was like a teenager, 119 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: that he actually appreciated living under fascism in Italy because 120 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: he felt like things were run very efficiently. 121 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: The trains ran on time. 122 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: Yes, he basically said that he was like, actually, I 123 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: thought that fascism was for the most part of positive 124 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: because it felt like everything was just like working well. 125 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: And I was like, Wow, interesting, bold dog Grandpa. Wow, 126 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: I think I know. 127 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Maybe this is a thing where 128 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: it's like maybe he was like maybe he was like 129 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,359 Speaker 1: on a Twilight Bender and he was like, hey, you 130 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: know what, I love Hitler or whatever.

He like, what the fuck, dude? 132 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: Or I don't know. 133 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not going to speculate. 134 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 2: But anyways, that was one question I had. And then 135 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 2: I have a I just wanted you to weigh in 136 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 2: on this.

So then I watched a 345 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: couple of movies to prepare for this episode, which I 346 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: feel like I should just mention, but I'm not going 347 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: to go into it because we're going to talk about it. 348 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. 349 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: I watched the first three Jackass movies obviously, but then 350 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: the end. To put a cap a feather in the 351 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 1: cap of my old film diary, this week, I decided 352 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: to rewatch Weird Science from nineteen eighty five. 353 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 2: A movie I've never seen. 354 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: Holy fucking shit. Now, I like I said, I don't 355 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: like to make people feel bad if for na see movies. 356 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: But I'm actually legit surprised you've never seen this. 357 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 2: I am too, because I'm like a John Hughes fan. 358 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 2: That's like my era. I don't know it was on 359 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 2: TV and I caught snippets of it. I gotta watch it. 360 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: Very very contentious at this point in our culture, which duh, 361 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: I get it. Yeah, every horny teenage boy movie from 362 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: the eighties is being dragged at this point. There's issues, 363 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: there's issues that movie particularly was I have seen that 364 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: movie so much in my life, wow a lot. I 365 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: can quote it in fact, because again I was in 366 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: John Hughes Freak too. I actually think the concept in 367 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: and of itself is so stupid, you know, but the 368 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: issues that arise, at least for me and I don't 369 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: like I don't think I have as many as others would, 370 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: although I do understand why they would have them, because 371 00:19:53,359 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 1: it is like gross teenage you know, masculinity, misogyny, homophobia, racism, 372 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 1: this kind of stuff. Right, It's just like very broad, 373 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: dumb eighties comedy strokes, let's get serious. Yeah, but there 374 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,719 Speaker 1: is something to be said for a movie that is 375 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: basically like taking the idea of like what teenage boys 376 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: think they want, which is they want to be able 377 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: to like create a woman, which is what's happening right 378 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,479 Speaker 1: now in like AI, it's happening by the way still 379 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: where guys are basically like, I'm fifteen and I want 380 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: to know what, you know, it would be like to 381 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,679 Speaker 1: kiss a girl, So I'm going to like create some 382 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: computer simulation of it. That's exactly what they do. Yeah, 383 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 1: but it's completely improbable because it's like, you know, obviously 384 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: the science doesn't add up, size doesn't ad up. And 385 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: then like Lisa, who's played by Kelly LeBrock, who's like 386 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 1: impossibly hot, Like she's I was like sitting there watching 387 00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: her this time, going, she's gotta be like the hot 388 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 1: woman I've ever seen. Uh And I say that as 389 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: a straight woman, and I have no I've no bone, 390 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: no bones about it. She is like probably the hottest 391 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: woman I've ever seen in that game. If you look 392 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: like her, no podcast no podcasts, I would know you. 393 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 1: It wouldn't even fucking talk to you, bro Sorry, But 394 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 1: like like she kind of is like a Mary Poppins 395 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: in the in the sense that she's like basically creating 396 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 1: alternate universes where things can happen. Yeah, there's something fun 397 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: about that. But sure there is a couple there are 398 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 1: a couple of scenes that are really hard to take 399 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five. But for the most part, I'm 400 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: still like sort of charmed by it. And I sure 401 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: maybe you feel a little guilty about that. 402 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 2: But you know, you have to look at things through, uh, 403 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 2: you know, a certain lens when we're looking at art 404 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 2: from the past, you know. And no one would have 405 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 2: fault you for enjoying a movie like that, but I would. 406 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: Of your take. By the way, you should watch it. 407 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 2: Nineteen eighty five's Weird Science. I gotta yeah, I gotta 408 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 2: check it out. You know, it's funny the t There's 409 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 2: a TV show, Weird Science that I would watch sometimes, 410 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 2: and I had five seasons. 411 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: Five seasons, my god. 412 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 2: They always advertised in the back of my comic books, 413 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 2: and I'd be like, Ooh, what's this horny show? 414 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: Was it like a USA? 415 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 2: Yeah?

I think this is 422 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 2: maybe the best Final Destination. I thought it was done 423 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 2: so well. It's like very air tight, it's funny, it's 424 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:59,360 Speaker 2: insanely violent, it's like so outrageous and it just flies by. 425 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 2: I thought it was incredible.

Then 451 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 1: I sort of slept, honest. 452 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 2: Slept on it. I think it's on HBO Max now 453 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 2: with all of the Final Destination movies and I and 454 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 2: I admittedly haven't seen all of them. But it was good. 455 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 2: All right, Millie, moving on to a main discussion, Close 456 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 2: it up, Close it up? All right, welcome back. It 457 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 2: is time for a main discussion, and today we're talking 458 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 2: about I mean, I give this movie five stars on letterbox. 459 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: I think I did too. If it wasn't a or Actually, 460 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, I might have given it my 461 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,719 Speaker 1: actual five stars, which is four and a half. 462 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 2: Does that makes sense, Yeah, that makes sense. That makes sense. 463 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,959 Speaker 2: Jackass number two from two thousand and six. You know, 464 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 2: there's not really a synopsis to this, you know, it's 465 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 2: an extension of the Jackass TV show and the first movie. 466 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 2: There's a bunch of stunts, violent stunts and outrageous pranks. 467 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 2: And what would you describe what they're doing in these movies? 468 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: How would you describe, Well, this is something I wanted 469 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: to talk about. In fact, I feel like this is 470 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: a modern example of a mondo movie. Would you say, perhaps. 471 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yeah, I would say so. I'm not totally 472 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 2: familiar with mondo movies. I know, like, what is it 473 00:25:58,400 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 2: Faces of Death? 474 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: Sure, yep, that's a good example. So that's a good 475 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: documentary documentary. Mondo Kane, which is pretty much where I 476 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: think the term comes from, which is a sixties Italian 477 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 1: movie that was kind of like so just a really 478 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: really really short brief history of a mando movie. First 479 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: of all, I feel like they the term mondo and 480 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: like the kind of genre has kind of fallen out 481 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: of fashion in that classic sense. There's kind of a 482 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: classic mondo period. There's actually probably two classic Mondo periods, 483 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,199 Speaker 1: one in the sixties and one in the eighties. But 484 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 1: basically they were these attempts at making documentaries that were 485 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: supposed to kind of give you a peek into some 486 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: kind of world that's very like Lurid and taboo when salacious. 487 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 1: So it was like the original Mondo Kane and Kane 488 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: is spelled c E la Caine and it's basically Italian 489 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: for a dog's world or a dog's eye view of 490 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: the world or something like that. But it was essentially 491 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: like a collection of sequences of like, you know, just 492 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: weird things. And these are for people who didn't get 493 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 1: to travel the world and didn't see like indigenous cultures 494 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 1: and like you know, different outfits and different like religious 495 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:28,879 Speaker 1: rights and stuff like that. So it was kind of 496 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 1: taking advantage of people who were like not well traveled 497 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 1: and not really you know, either couldn't be interested or 498 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: didn't have the means to be interested in the world, right, Yeah, 499 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: And it was meant to shock and titilate in awe. 500 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: That was the whole point. Over the years and the sixties, 501 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: they started getting a little bit more, I don't know, 502 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 1: they up the stakes a little bit. A lot of 503 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,439 Speaker 1: them started being made in America, and it would focus 504 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: on place like Hollywood of course, or like New York City, 505 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: places where if you were living in like Minnesota and 506 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:07,679 Speaker 1: you didn't go to New York, you'd be like. 507 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 2: Oh my God, New York so crazy.

And he's 674 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: like hell no. He was like, this is like the 675 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: reason why all these like stupid TikTok bros. Exist. And 676 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: I was just like, huh, maybe. 677 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:46,240 Speaker 2: I mean that's really interesting because I was thinking about 678 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 2: gen Z. Yeah, and I was like gen Z could 679 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 2: never Yeah, because I feel like there's a real lack 680 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 2: of control. They give up complete control in Jackass, Like 681 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 2: they set things in motion, but they don't know what's 682 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 2: going to happen. That's kind of the beauty of it, right, 683 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 2: you know. Like for example, one of the kind of 684 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 2: a famous image is Johnny Knoxville putting on a blindfold 685 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 2: and lighting a cigarette as they unleash a bull at him. 686 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 2: Who knows what's going to happen. He gets flipped like perfectly. 687 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 2: But like I feel like TikTok is so manicured and 688 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 2: they're in such control of their image and the outcome 689 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 2: that I feel like they're completely different, because when you 690 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 2: don't know what's going to happen, you are completely vulnerable 691 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 2: to how you are represented, you know what I mean? 692 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, it makes me wonder because it feels like 693 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,720 Speaker 1: Jackass sort of existed in a pre social media era almost, 694 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 1: even though I know that's not entirely true, but at 695 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: least the show and the first couple of movies existed 696 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: pre TikTok for sure, and pre Instagram stories or whatever, 697 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,839 Speaker 1: So it is like this contained universe of like, oh, 698 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 1: these are like these are like real reactions and real 699 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: things happening. I mean, it's a it's a documentary. We're 700 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: probably seeing the best of the best, you know, and 701 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 1: not every single take, but we're also like seeing things 702 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 1: that are real and having people having real reactions. And 703 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 1: you're right, it isn't this like manicured thing. Although I 704 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:19,919 Speaker 1: want to say this, this is this was like part 705 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 1: of the reason why I think I was compelled to 706 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 1: do number two Jackass too. I don't know if you've 707 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: seen how long has it been since you've seen the 708 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: first Jackass. 709 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 2: Probably three years. It's somewhat reason. 710 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, the one thing that really stock out to me 711 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: between one and two is that the production value got. 712 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 2: Upped a lot in two. 713 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 1: The first Jackass movie was pretty much like the show. 714 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 1: It was still really rough around the edges. It felt 715 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,799 Speaker 1: kind of like very you know, digital video, a lot 716 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:55,399 Speaker 1: of like, you know, there was no I mean, there 717 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 1: was an opening sequence, but it wasn't. I just felt 718 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 1: like the production value went up significantly, probably because the 719 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: first one was so popular that they got more money 720 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 1: to do the second one, of course, and so the 721 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: second one feels like a more fully formed piece. 722 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 2: Than the first one. 723 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: And I will say my favorite. The reason why Jackass 724 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 1: two is my favorite is because of the end of 725 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,359 Speaker 1: Jackass two, which is a total nod to Buzzby Berkeley. Yes, 726 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: that is my favorite shit in the world. Is that 727 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 1: whole ending sequence of Jackass two with like the cevo 728 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,959 Speaker 1: as Esther Williams and then the like you know, fifties 729 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: like technicolor Western musicals and like the crazy stage stuff. 730 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I just loved that shit. 731 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 2: I think too, like just to go back to like 732 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 2: sort of like TikTok Stars and how different Jackasses from 733 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 2: those people.

It's like, no, they're trying to 738 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 2: do it. Obviously, it's funny that they're doing like attempting 739 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 2: to do a Busby Berkeley ending, right, But there's no 740 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,399 Speaker 2: they have they're both feed in.

Yeah, 842 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 1: dangerously attractive. There's so many reasons to like Johnny Knoxville. 843 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,839 Speaker 2: Here's one thing I don't know if we've exactly touched upon. 844 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 2: I think all these guys are pretty hot, Like they're 845 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 2: all really cute. 846 00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 1: Oh they're cute.

He is a showman. He 851 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,760 Speaker 1: kind of has the pomp and circumstance of like doing 852 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 1: the old stunts, Like he kind of presents it in 853 00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 1: a way that's like he's like an old Carnival barker. 854 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 2: I love it. I love it well. And I think 855 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:17,759 Speaker 2: his steady hand, he never shows fear. Now, he's the 856 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 2: only one that's not like I don't want to do this. 857 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 2: You never see him like that. He's he's very much 858 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 2: a showman in the way that it's like no, I said, 859 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 2: I'm doing this, and we're doing it. Yeah, there's no 860 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 2: going back. He's like Evil Canevel in that way, like, yeah, 861 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,880 Speaker 2: once he's decided to do it, it's happening. 862 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 3: You know. 863 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 1: And he kind of has he kind of has this 864 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:44,360 Speaker 1: older brother quality to him that I really appreciate. 865 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:47,000 Speaker 2: But in number two, I feel like, especially there's a 866 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:48,840 Speaker 2: lot of times where the guys you'll hear them be 867 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 2: like Noxill's insane, or they'll be like really afraid, like 868 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,279 Speaker 2: that bull scene where they're on the teeter totter. Yeah, 869 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 2: they show the guys like legitimately frightened for the guys 870 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,360 Speaker 2: in the bowl, yeah, you know, and they're like you 871 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 2: can tell Steve O is like disturbed.

That might be 876 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 2: number one. 877 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 1: I think it's number one. That was terrifying, Like I 878 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 1: was like, I mean, golf carts kill guys. That's why 879 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 1: you don't race around in them. I'll just keep it 880 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,760 Speaker 1: they do.

I 997 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 1: mean they you know, they weren't like you know, from 998 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,239 Speaker 1: the Ivy League acting schools like they were you know, 999 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:18,880 Speaker 1: like kind of like street kids, like hanging out and 1000 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 1: pulling pranks. It's not, you know, that far of a 1001 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:26,320 Speaker 1: stretch to imagine that maybe something bad happened to them sometime, 1002 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:30,239 Speaker 1: you know, it's unfortunate. But yeah, I think that's that's 1003 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:35,319 Speaker 1: the interesting about this whole. They feel like, to me, 1004 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 1: pretty authentically punk in that way, whereas I feel like, 1005 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:45,240 Speaker 1: I don't know, what's the comp is it the try guys? 1006 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 1: Like what are we comping now? 1007 00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:50,280 Speaker 2: Like what are we try guys? The buzzer you try 1008 00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:54,320 Speaker 2: guys over even attempting to be punk. 1009 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:56,680 Speaker 1: No, of course, what I'm saying is like, what's this 1010 00:54:56,840 --> 00:55:00,919 Speaker 1: like modern iteration of like this thing of like here's 1011 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 1: a group of guys, or here's a group of people 1012 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:05,919 Speaker 1: that are gonna do something wild or do something like weird. 1013 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,759 Speaker 2: They're gonna be like you're that's the thing. It is 1014 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 2: like TikTok or like streamers on twitch, you know, Kai 1015 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 2: Sinnat or Drew Ski, but it's so less dangerous or 1016 00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:31,080 Speaker 2: trying to do something, you know. I I think there's 1017 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 2: a real lack of punk rock going on right now. 1018 00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 1: And. 1019 00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:44,359 Speaker 2: I can't imagine gen Z doing something as beautiful as Jackass. 1020 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the punk is the entire factor to 1021 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:55,160 Speaker 1: this whole conversation is punk rock and coming from you 1022 00:55:55,160 --> 00:56:00,239 Speaker 1: know that world, which I like, I said, I can't 1023 00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 1: even believe I said try guys as in the same sentence. Really, 1024 00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:06,960 Speaker 1: And this is me saying that having seen only like 1025 00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:11,440 Speaker 1: one episode of this try Guys thing. But I know 1026 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:12,960 Speaker 1: people that are into it. 1027 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:21,120 Speaker 2: But it's just everything is so soft and predictable now 1028 00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:25,840 Speaker 2: it makes me so sad. I just watched this TikTok 1029 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:29,720 Speaker 2: or I guess it was a video from the poet 1030 00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:33,800 Speaker 2: and author Ocean Vang. Yes, do you know this person? 1031 00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:34,560 Speaker 1: Of course I do. 1032 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,440 Speaker 2: He was talking about his students. He's a college professor. 1033 00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:41,840 Speaker 2: He's talking about his students and how so many of 1034 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:43,080 Speaker 2: them are like I want to be a poet, I 1035 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:44,920 Speaker 2: want to be a writer, but none of them are 1036 00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 2: doing it. Yeah, because they're terrified of looking cringe. They're 1037 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:57,399 Speaker 2: terrified of looking like they are trying too hard or 1038 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:00,080 Speaker 2: attempting to do something and failing. They don't want to 1039 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 2: be cringe. Cringe is the worst thing possible. Yes, And 1040 00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:08,799 Speaker 2: do you think the Jackass guys feared cringe? You know, 1041 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:12,480 Speaker 2: it's like so many young people are worried that they 1042 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:19,760 Speaker 2: won't look fully polished or someone will make fun of 1043 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,880 Speaker 2: them for being sincere. Because I think Jackass there's a 1044 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:27,480 Speaker 2: real sincerity to it. Yeah, you know, and gen Z 1045 00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:30,920 Speaker 2: is afraid to look sincere lest they be cringe. 1046 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 1: Well, they have more eyeballs on their things. That's the 1047 00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:40,919 Speaker 1: That's ultimately a huge too, is that you know, back 1048 00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 1: in the day when Jackass was conceived, it was like, oh, 1049 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,160 Speaker 1: you might have a video. 1050 00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:47,840 Speaker 3: Of you. 1051 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:55,720 Speaker 1: Having, you know, to inhale some dude's farts in a 1052 00:57:55,760 --> 00:58:00,240 Speaker 1: gas mask. That might be shown to other skaters. It 1053 00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:02,920 Speaker 1: might be sold in like a skate shop. But that's 1054 00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:06,080 Speaker 1: the extent of it. There really wasn't anything. There were 1055 00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 1: like little to no stakes, even in the context of 1056 00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 1: a television show. I mean that Jackass TV show was 1057 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:17,600 Speaker 1: so fucking popular it was probably beamed into like one 1058 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:21,360 Speaker 1: hundred million homes, like you know, the sixty eight Comeback 1059 00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 1: special from Elvis or some shit. But it's at the 1060 00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:30,240 Speaker 1: same time, like there is no the quality of the Internet, 1061 00:58:30,240 --> 00:58:34,680 Speaker 1: which is that things are mimified and preserved forever and 1062 00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 1: ever and ever and remixed and sent to people's phones 1063 00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 1: in their homes. It's like that quality of it, I 1064 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:46,720 Speaker 1: think is what might explain why the Jackass guys went 1065 00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 1: harder than any of these TikTokers. But at the same time, 1066 00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:53,000 Speaker 1: like those Jackass guys are punk rock and that doesn't 1067 00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 1: seem like a thing anymore. 1068 00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:57,280 Speaker 2: It's really fun ethos that I don't feel like these 1069 00:58:57,320 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 2: streamers have. 1070 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:00,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's funny you say that ocean wong thing, 1071 00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:04,080 Speaker 1: because there's also this other tick going around on TikTok 1072 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:10,240 Speaker 1: of Matt Rogers from The Lost Cultures's podcast, Yes, also 1073 00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 1: dogging out gen Z for being like obsessed with cringe 1074 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:21,560 Speaker 1: and calling millennials like losers because they're cringe. I don't know, 1075 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 1: you should look it up, but basically. 1076 00:59:22,920 --> 00:59:24,480 Speaker 2: You should look it up. I'm sure I agree. I 1077 00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 2: always agree with Matt Rogers generally. 1078 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's basically like, y'all are making fun of us 1079 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:34,120 Speaker 1: for being earnest and cringe and stupid. But guess what, 1080 00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:36,920 Speaker 1: you will also be stupid when you get old. Like 1081 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 1: every day you live is more time for your style 1082 00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:46,400 Speaker 1: and everything that you hold true to phase out and 1083 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:48,360 Speaker 1: become cringed, do you know what I mean, Like, there's 1084 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 1: always a generation coming after you that's gonna think you're 1085 00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:51,880 Speaker 1: a loser. 1086 00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 2: So like lighting up type thing. But I do think that, 1087 00:59:56,880 --> 01:00:02,480 Speaker 2: like gen Z, is it really inhibited creatively because the 1088 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 2: creative act inherently there is a point where you depart 1089 01:00:07,640 --> 01:00:11,360 Speaker 2: from something you can control. Sure, like you are putting 1090 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 2: something out there into the world and you honestly don't 1091 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 2: know how people are going to react and it might 1092 01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:22,960 Speaker 2: be embarrassing. Yeah, but that is inherent to the creative process. 1093 01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:27,200 Speaker 2: And so if you're not willing to take that leap, 1094 01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:29,880 Speaker 2: there will be no You will not create anything. 1095 01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, So that's like the foundation of this podcast. 1096 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:36,680 Speaker 2: Well we are cringe, but we are free. 1097 01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 1: That's I mean, like, if you sat around caring, you 1098 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 1: just would be completely catatonic from fear and anxiety of 1099 01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:51,160 Speaker 1: the perception of what you're doing or you or your 1100 01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:56,240 Speaker 1: ideas or whatever. I actually am surprised that Jackass two 1101 01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:59,640 Speaker 1: has brought us to this point where we're talking about 1102 01:00:59,680 --> 01:01:05,560 Speaker 1: creative inspirations. That's an unintended consequence of watching Jackass too, 1103 01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:06,160 Speaker 1: but I love it. 1104 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:15,400 Speaker 2: Well. I think that Jackass as a form is so creative, 1105 01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:19,800 Speaker 2: Like I was so inspired watching this, and it's so 1106 01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 2: like there's so much thought that goes into these bits. Yeah, 1107 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:30,120 Speaker 2: and I think it's cool when they just like show 1108 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 2: one that's like five seconds long and clearly took a 1109 01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:35,520 Speaker 2: huge setting. Like there's like a scene where they're in 1110 01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 2: BAM's house and they set up a ski hill on 1111 01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:42,120 Speaker 2: their steps, but we only see it for like ten seconds. Yeah, 1112 01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 2: you know, yeah, which makes I don't really have a 1113 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:46,560 Speaker 2: point to that. I just I'm I'm I was just 1114 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:49,640 Speaker 2: so inspired watching this, and I was just like the 1115 01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:55,480 Speaker 2: form of Jackass as a film is so interesting and unique, 1116 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:59,640 Speaker 2: and I just really enjoyed watching Yeah, it's it's this movie. 1117 01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:02,120 Speaker 1: It really to me. This is why I think two. 1118 01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:08,600 Speaker 1: I mean, there has been times where a sequel has 1119 01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:12,640 Speaker 1: been a better movie than the first and the subsequent 1120 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,040 Speaker 1: Once Pee, a lot of people think The Night Around 1121 01:02:15,160 --> 01:02:19,160 Speaker 1: Mstreet two is the best Night around Elms Street, as 1122 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:23,520 Speaker 1: well as other movies other properties The Godfather Too, Evil 1123 01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 1: Dead two Exactly what I think two is the best, 1124 01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:31,000 Speaker 1: perhaps out of all of them, is because it is 1125 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:35,959 Speaker 1: it is a perfect step up from the first one, 1126 01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 1: which was very raw and like the TV show and 1127 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:47,680 Speaker 1: kind of still pretty low fi, but it's not like 1128 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:50,320 Speaker 1: like once you jump to Jackass three D. By the way, 1129 01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 1: Jackass three D is great too. They're all great. I 1130 01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:56,080 Speaker 1: literally have seen every Jackass movie in a movie theater. 1131 01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:02,360 Speaker 1: They I go opening weekend. I'm obsessed. I love the 1132 01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 1: Jackass movies, and if they make Jackass twenty seven, I'm 1133 01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:08,320 Speaker 1: gonna go. I don't care if I'm ninety years old, 1134 01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:12,000 Speaker 1: I don't care if I'm Spike Jones and the bad 1135 01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:17,200 Speaker 1: Grandma Boobs costume. I'm going to see the new Jackass movie. 1136 01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:20,640 Speaker 1: But I feel like Jackass three D got leveled up, 1137 01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 1: like you could really tell that they were like, oh, 1138 01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:26,640 Speaker 1: we have like Hollywood money now because they all have tans. 1139 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:30,040 Speaker 1: That was the first thing I noticed. And Jackass three D. 1140 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:32,360 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, these guys will have tans. They're 1141 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 1: not like pasty white with like bad skater tattoos.

And I also found 1311 01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:18,920 Speaker 3: Frank Tashlan to be a wonderful sort of character that 1312 01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:23,240 Speaker 3: sort of had this relationship with both iconography and the 1313 01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:27,840 Speaker 3: public reaction to that He's this is probably his best 1314 01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:31,439 Speaker 3: known live action film, but he was obviously famously an 1315 01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:37,519 Speaker 3: animator who did Mooney Tunes cartoons, and I think for 1316 01:14:37,800 --> 01:14:40,639 Speaker 3: runner to The Girl Can Help It is his nineteen 1317 01:14:40,800 --> 01:14:47,840 Speaker 3: forties cartoon called Swooner Krooner, which which kind of you 1318 01:14:47,840 --> 01:14:51,040 Speaker 3: could almost say predicted the sort of hysteria around Elvis, 1319 01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:55,800 Speaker 3: because it's about the hysteria regarding figures at that time, 1320 01:14:55,960 --> 01:15:01,600 Speaker 3: be it sinaftra Bing, Crosby, cap Cowaway and how suggestive 1321 01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:06,080 Speaker 3: and blue. A lot of the jokes are such as 1322 01:15:06,680 --> 01:15:10,879 Speaker 3: the signs of the sort of hysteria and arousal from 1323 01:15:11,479 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 3: seeing these cartoon characters, these cartoon crooners perform and stuff 1324 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:23,200 Speaker 3: has all these people laying eggs. Yeah, and it's and 1325 01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:25,320 Speaker 3: it kind of makes me think of the girl can 1326 01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:29,879 Speaker 3: help it with the famous milk shots of milk popping 1327 01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:34,840 Speaker 3: and exploit and exploding. When Gene Mansfield walks. 1328 01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:43,720 Speaker 1: She's I mean suggestive much? Yeah, No, I it's so 1329 01:15:43,760 --> 01:15:49,400 Speaker 1: funny because I what I was like, thinking about your 1330 01:15:49,479 --> 01:15:53,479 Speaker 1: area of expertise. I was going, Okay, so we have 1331 01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:56,559 Speaker 1: to make a line of demarcation, I feel like, because 1332 01:15:56,680 --> 01:15:59,840 Speaker 1: you have the movies of the time period that are 1333 01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:03,080 Speaker 1: featuring the diners of the time period, right, but then 1334 01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:06,200 Speaker 1: you have this like hole, there's like this whole like 1335 01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:12,040 Speaker 1: you know, proliferation of that esthetic that has persisted throughout 1336 01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:14,080 Speaker 1: the years where it's almost kind of like a joke 1337 01:16:14,200 --> 01:16:16,519 Speaker 1: at this point. Like I think about a movie like 1338 01:16:16,600 --> 01:16:20,559 Speaker 1: Ghost World, for example, with Rowsville, and I'm like, it 1339 01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:23,160 Speaker 1: became kind of this I don't know, this like symbol 1340 01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:27,559 Speaker 1: of boomerness or something I don't know. And I thought 1341 01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:31,280 Speaker 1: about like my friends's dads and stuff that were like 1342 01:16:31,320 --> 01:16:34,120 Speaker 1: obsessed with you know, like they had these like basements 1343 01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:36,680 Speaker 1: that were set up like fifties diner looking things, with 1344 01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:40,280 Speaker 1: like the straw holder that pops out and the whole 1345 01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:45,680 Speaker 1: Like yeah, just like like retrofitting an entire basement as 1346 01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:46,559 Speaker 1: a fifties diner. 1347 01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:49,800 Speaker 2: It is interesting. I feel like there is like sub 1348 01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:54,640 Speaker 2: after you know, the nineteen fifties and diner culture. It 1349 01:16:54,720 --> 01:16:58,160 Speaker 2: now holds a place that's both ironic and sincere at 1350 01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:03,960 Speaker 2: the same time. Yes, you it holds that boomer space, 1351 01:17:04,080 --> 01:17:06,519 Speaker 2: but also, like ghost World, they keep going back to 1352 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:09,640 Speaker 2: that diner. It's a it's a safe place in a 1353 01:17:09,680 --> 01:17:10,439 Speaker 2: lot of ways. 1354 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:14,080 Speaker 1: You know. Well, so I wanted to ask, is there 1355 01:17:14,479 --> 01:17:17,920 Speaker 1: besides the girl can help it, is there other movies 1356 01:17:18,360 --> 01:17:23,439 Speaker 1: of this era that you would suggest people watch to 1357 01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:26,680 Speaker 1: kind of get the vibe of the diner vibe if 1358 01:17:26,720 --> 01:17:29,240 Speaker 1: you will. I mean, there is isn't there a great 1359 01:17:29,320 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 1: diner scene in the Wild World. There's a diner diner 1360 01:17:32,040 --> 01:17:32,960 Speaker 1: scenes in the Wild One. 1361 01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:38,519 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he'd got he like Brando definitely has that 1362 01:17:38,640 --> 01:17:42,200 Speaker 3: sort of playful kind of let's listen to music type 1363 01:17:42,240 --> 01:17:48,640 Speaker 3: of moment there. I'm trying to think of others I 1364 01:17:48,640 --> 01:17:51,479 Speaker 3: almost want to say and pay in place, because they're 1365 01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:56,360 Speaker 3: mainly because again I think again, it's a move, it's 1366 01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:59,000 Speaker 3: a it's a it's a it's a text that shook 1367 01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 3: everyone to their or when it came out first as 1368 01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:08,200 Speaker 3: a book. And while the movie does shape off some 1369 01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:11,000 Speaker 3: of the edge from the original book, it's still a 1370 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:15,880 Speaker 3: pretty good sort of look into sort of the dark undercurrents. 1371 01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:23,040 Speaker 3: I would say David Lynch, his whole World an uber itself, 1372 01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:27,360 Speaker 3: can be seen as a nineteen fifties diner aesthetic. And 1373 01:18:28,080 --> 01:18:31,799 Speaker 3: when you mentioned it was so me like Willow often said, 1374 01:18:32,240 --> 01:18:34,759 Speaker 3: we're both Lynchy and and the fact that she's into 1375 01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:41,719 Speaker 3: the sort of industrial, gothic, fractured, feminine, fallen woman's side 1376 01:18:41,880 --> 01:18:45,320 Speaker 3: of his work, while I'm definitely the nineteen fifties diner. 1377 01:18:46,080 --> 01:18:48,799 Speaker 1: Yes, I'm with you, I'm. 1378 01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:57,360 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, with David Lynch. How does that differentiate for you? 1379 01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:01,200 Speaker 2: In terms of like the way he is presenting kind 1380 01:19:01,200 --> 01:19:03,360 Speaker 2: of diner culture, because so many of his movies have 1381 01:19:04,120 --> 01:19:07,000 Speaker 2: important scenes in diners. I mean, I think about Maulholland 1382 01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:12,800 Speaker 2: Drive and Blue Velvet especially, But how is his interpretation 1383 01:19:12,840 --> 01:19:17,280 Speaker 2: of diner culture different from one than Like The Girl 1384 01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:18,280 Speaker 2: Can't Help It. 1385 01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:23,320 Speaker 3: Well, I think there's kind of a sort of simple 1386 01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:28,240 Speaker 3: more sort of it seems simple on the surface, like 1387 01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:33,320 Speaker 3: he likes the Lynch likes the ambience of drinking just 1388 01:19:33,360 --> 01:19:38,120 Speaker 3: coffee and eating pie, whereas Tashlin is not really sort 1389 01:19:38,160 --> 01:19:41,639 Speaker 3: of diving into the finer things in life, so to speak. 1390 01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:47,080 Speaker 3: It is mostly to move platforward or just have a moment, 1391 01:19:47,160 --> 01:19:50,959 Speaker 3: to have a joke or two for the central characters 1392 01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:56,200 Speaker 3: in his work. But Lynch definitely wants to live in 1393 01:19:56,240 --> 01:20:00,559 Speaker 3: that nineteen fifties diner aesthetic, or at least have his 1394 01:20:00,720 --> 01:20:04,840 Speaker 3: characters sort of situate themselves in it, because it fascinates 1395 01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:08,120 Speaker 3: him as kind of a place that can be feel 1396 01:20:08,160 --> 01:20:11,000 Speaker 3: like it's lost in time in many ways. Whereas I 1397 01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:16,400 Speaker 3: think I'm not. I think Tashling, while being very much 1398 01:20:16,400 --> 01:20:19,599 Speaker 3: of it, of his time. I think by the nineteen 1399 01:20:19,640 --> 01:20:24,200 Speaker 3: sixties when he was doing like doors Day pictures and 1400 01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:27,559 Speaker 3: I love doors Day, So I'm not saying this at 1401 01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:32,120 Speaker 3: saying this in a dismissive manner towards her. I think 1402 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:34,200 Speaker 3: he sort of felt like he was out of time. 1403 01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:38,759 Speaker 3: And also the sort of Looney Tunes renaissance was also 1404 01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:42,080 Speaker 3: kind of fading fading out by the nineteen sixties, so 1405 01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:45,719 Speaker 3: he kind of he kind of becomes the person who 1406 01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:53,479 Speaker 3: who becomes the sort of figure for nostalgists to to 1407 01:20:53,760 --> 01:20:58,599 Speaker 3: obsess over, but not necessarily the one who builds those 1408 01:20:58,680 --> 01:21:02,200 Speaker 3: worlds that hole nostalgia like Lynch does. 1409 01:21:03,120 --> 01:21:06,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting because I do think that if you know, 1410 01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:08,920 Speaker 1: if I really like scope out on it, and I 1411 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:14,000 Speaker 1: think about how many movies since the nineteen fifties have 1412 01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:18,960 Speaker 1: kind of employed the fifties aesthetic of a diner in movies. 1413 01:21:19,000 --> 01:21:20,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm think I think of. 1414 01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:25,719 Speaker 2: Michael Michael Diner, Michael Mann movies, you know, like Greece. 1415 01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:27,920 Speaker 1: I mean obviously stuff like that. But then you know, 1416 01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:29,920 Speaker 1: like when Harry met Sally and things of this nature, 1417 01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:33,240 Speaker 1: and it's kind of like I can't think of another 1418 01:21:34,479 --> 01:21:39,080 Speaker 1: physical location maybe or especially just a restaurant, like an 1419 01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:44,200 Speaker 1: eating established, that eating establishment that's sort of more that 1420 01:21:44,920 --> 01:21:47,519 Speaker 1: like like instead of like, for example, would it be 1421 01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:51,479 Speaker 1: as effective if like Paccino and you know, De Niro 1422 01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:55,439 Speaker 1: met at a Chipotle or like, you know, something like that, 1423 01:21:55,479 --> 01:21:58,920 Speaker 1: like some other type of interesting restaurant versus a diner, 1424 01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:01,880 Speaker 1: which because it just feels like there's sort of this 1425 01:22:02,040 --> 01:22:06,000 Speaker 1: like tradition to it that orients a movie better for 1426 01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:10,120 Speaker 1: two characters to have like a convo or something. I 1427 01:22:10,120 --> 01:22:11,800 Speaker 1: don't know if you think that it's almost like it's 1428 01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:14,120 Speaker 1: a physical space, but it's like a liminal space at 1429 01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:14,800 Speaker 1: the same time. 1430 01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:16,880 Speaker 2: Does that make sense? I think it does communicate a 1431 01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:19,880 Speaker 2: sense of safety, you know, just like heat for example, 1432 01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:21,599 Speaker 2: you know they're not going to get into a fight 1433 01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:24,280 Speaker 2: in the diner, you know, or like in Mulholland Drive 1434 01:22:24,360 --> 01:22:26,240 Speaker 2: when he's like I had a dream about this place, 1435 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:28,320 Speaker 2: they have to leave the diner to go find the 1436 01:22:28,360 --> 01:22:30,840 Speaker 2: scary person behind it. You know, it does sort of 1437 01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:35,720 Speaker 2: communicate that this is a sacred space for these characters 1438 01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:38,439 Speaker 2: and that they'll be protected there. Well. 1439 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:42,759 Speaker 3: Boops kind of themselves kind of insulate you and kind 1440 01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:46,720 Speaker 3: of allow you to have this sort of intimacy with 1441 01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:51,400 Speaker 3: another person across in these sort of worlds, and then 1442 01:22:51,439 --> 01:22:54,120 Speaker 3: at the same time, you can also have control of 1443 01:22:54,160 --> 01:22:57,440 Speaker 3: that whole entire space of the diner with say the jukebox, 1444 01:22:57,479 --> 01:23:01,559 Speaker 3: where you can pick the whole a song for quarter 1445 01:23:01,840 --> 01:23:05,080 Speaker 3: or whatever. Yeah, there's an autonomy in the whole, in 1446 01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:07,800 Speaker 3: the whole thing, MILLI, what do you think al Pacino 1447 01:23:07,840 --> 01:23:11,840 Speaker 3: and roberts Niro's Chipotle order would be my brain, buz, 1448 01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:14,920 Speaker 3: and then picking out pinto or black beans in line. 1449 01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:17,799 Speaker 3: It's just I was going to walk to the nearest 1450 01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:24,719 Speaker 3: Duncan to order that Dunkino. That's right, my name's dunk 1451 01:23:25,640 --> 01:23:28,439 Speaker 3: I think, I think, I think the Nero is a 1452 01:23:28,560 --> 01:23:29,559 Speaker 3: readable guy. 1453 01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:37,640 Speaker 2: I agreed, Yeah, extra sour cream, you know. 1454 01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:42,560 Speaker 1: And there's also two like there is such a mythology 1455 01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:48,120 Speaker 1: or like I love maybe for the diner waitress. Yeah, 1456 01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:52,519 Speaker 1: you know, I love the movie Alice doesn't live here anymore, 1457 01:23:52,760 --> 01:23:55,320 Speaker 1: and you know, just the whole like there is a 1458 01:23:55,360 --> 01:24:00,800 Speaker 1: culture of diner waitresses I think of.

I also think of, obviously, 1482 01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:16,559 Speaker 3: you think of all the lovely waitresses of Twin Peaks, 1483 01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:22,439 Speaker 3: and also yes, and also like obviously Tarantino, the diner 1484 01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:26,960 Speaker 3: is masure is a major part from From the Jump 1485 01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:31,720 Speaker 3: the Reservoir Dogs. Whole conversation happening about the ethics of 1486 01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:36,200 Speaker 3: tipping and all that, obviously in a more profane manner, 1487 01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:39,679 Speaker 3: and also that that riffs in pulp fiction. It riffs 1488 01:25:39,720 --> 01:25:42,920 Speaker 3: on the nineteen fifties diner aesthetic where everyone is dressed 1489 01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:49,720 Speaker 3: up like a nineteen fifties person, Steve Buscemi as Buddy Holly. 1490 01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 3: Nothing that far, but yeah, I have a soft spot 1491 01:25:54,360 --> 01:25:59,720 Speaker 3: for the whole rude sixty six mid century type of 1492 01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:06,559 Speaker 3: aesthetic generally, like, yeah, I like, I loved, like, I 1493 01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:12,639 Speaker 3: loved Wes Anderson's Asteroid City. Yeah, American graffiti probably also 1494 01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:16,240 Speaker 3: will come up, come up, even though that's technically early 1495 01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:22,240 Speaker 3: nineteen sixties. I think the whole sort of boomer narrative 1496 01:26:22,560 --> 01:26:25,799 Speaker 3: that the nineteen fifties were still going on up until 1497 01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 3: the jfk assassination is something that I think is agreed 1498 01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:35,200 Speaker 3: agreed upon. Like again, even though it was a little 1499 01:26:35,560 --> 01:26:41,360 Speaker 3: looser and not as conformists as the Eisenhower years were 1500 01:26:41,439 --> 01:26:46,120 Speaker 3: in the early nineteen sixties, like, it was still very 1501 01:26:46,200 --> 01:26:51,599 Speaker 3: much left over nineteen fifties seeping into that period. 1502 01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:54,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is interesting. You know, we were talking about 1503 01:26:55,080 --> 01:26:57,559 Speaker 2: Trump at the top two and so much of like 1504 01:26:57,760 --> 01:27:03,000 Speaker 2: make America Great Again is sort of this idealized version 1505 01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:05,599 Speaker 2: of the nineteen fifties. I mean, the nineteen fifties constantly 1506 01:27:05,640 --> 01:27:09,400 Speaker 2: comes up with those sort of conversations of as the 1507 01:27:09,479 --> 01:27:13,040 Speaker 2: time that America was at its height. 1508 01:27:13,720 --> 01:27:15,559 Speaker 3: If they looked at if they looked at the taxt 1509 01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:17,719 Speaker 3: urates of the nineteen fifties, I feel like they would 1510 01:27:17,720 --> 01:27:21,680 Speaker 3: immediately realize how much of that, how much of a 1511 01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 3: how much of a ride they're going into. It's like, oh, yeah, 1512 01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:29,559 Speaker 3: we used to fund things. We funded a whole space 1513 01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:31,240 Speaker 3: race race, we. 1514 01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:32,320 Speaker 2: Used to have libraries. 1515 01:27:32,640 --> 01:27:37,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, God, well, this is fantastic. I mean, honestly, I 1516 01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:42,360 Speaker 1: love anybody that comes to this section of the pod 1517 01:27:42,400 --> 01:27:45,439 Speaker 1: and kind of brings up something, you know, very specific, 1518 01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:47,920 Speaker 1: but then it's a kind of entry point into like 1519 01:27:48,760 --> 01:27:52,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, film culture, but also regular culture, and 1520 01:27:52,439 --> 01:27:54,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, I just I think it's fascinating thinking 1521 01:27:54,920 --> 01:28:00,639 Speaker 1: about the idea of the esthetic itself, like transcending the time, 1522 01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:03,400 Speaker 1: and it just kind of moves on and means different 1523 01:28:03,439 --> 01:28:06,840 Speaker 1: things to different movies, and I don't know, it's kind 1524 01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:07,240 Speaker 1: of cool. 1525 01:28:07,920 --> 01:28:12,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I definitely recommend The Girl Can't Help It. 1526 01:28:12,080 --> 01:28:15,280 Speaker 3: I recommend hearing John Waters talk about The Girl Can't 1527 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:17,320 Speaker 3: Help It, which I think is on the criterion disc, 1528 01:28:18,439 --> 01:28:22,160 Speaker 3: but he talks about how much he loves the colors 1529 01:28:22,200 --> 01:28:25,320 Speaker 3: in the movie, and it's not even like technic color. 1530 01:28:25,439 --> 01:28:31,280 Speaker 3: It's deluxe color that was done and it's crazy. It's 1531 01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:33,679 Speaker 3: at some point it does look like a circ movie, 1532 01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:38,360 Speaker 3: even though obviously, again it's made by basically a comedian 1533 01:28:38,479 --> 01:28:42,880 Speaker 3: who again was also a very dirty old man. I 1534 01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:48,120 Speaker 3: often talk about how his movie Susan Slept Here is 1535 01:28:48,160 --> 01:28:51,120 Speaker 3: a much more disturbing Christmas movie than Eyes White Shut, 1536 01:28:51,160 --> 01:28:54,519 Speaker 3: and people don't believe me until they watch it and 1537 01:28:54,560 --> 01:28:55,640 Speaker 3: then they agree with me. 1538 01:28:56,880 --> 01:28:59,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a TC Christmas classic. I remember programming 1539 01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:01,800 Speaker 1: that a bunch. 1540 01:29:01,880 --> 01:29:05,200 Speaker 3: So oh yeah, it's I still feel like it has 1541 01:29:05,280 --> 01:29:07,000 Speaker 3: to be on there. It has to be a tradition. 1542 01:29:07,120 --> 01:29:09,760 Speaker 3: You have to have Susan slept Here in outrage all 1543 01:29:09,800 --> 01:29:12,600 Speaker 3: the people who are expecting a nice, cuddly movie with 1544 01:29:12,680 --> 01:29:13,520 Speaker 3: Debbie Reynolds. 1545 01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:20,080 Speaker 1: Oh my god.

But it's like he's been 1626 01:33:54,800 --> 01:33:58,160 Speaker 1: able to make the show for like seventy five years, 1627 01:33:58,200 --> 01:33:58,800 Speaker 1: it seems like. 1628 01:33:58,840 --> 01:34:00,720 Speaker 2: And there's like eight billion episode Yeah. 1629 01:34:00,760 --> 01:34:03,799 Speaker 1: Oh it began airing on August twenty ninth, two thousand 1630 01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:06,280 Speaker 1: and elevenin. 1631 01:34:07,680 --> 01:34:08,320 Speaker 2: Insane. 1632 01:34:08,680 --> 01:34:16,760 Speaker 1: Wow, dude, there's been I'm sorry, forty four seasons of it. 1633 01:34:17,520 --> 01:34:19,960 Speaker 2: That's crazy. I don't even understand what that means. 1634 01:34:20,479 --> 01:34:27,320 Speaker 1: Forty four seasons of this show. If you go on Wikipedia, 1635 01:34:27,479 --> 01:34:31,360 Speaker 1: it'll give you a chart, and it's basically like forty 1636 01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:35,719 Speaker 1: four seasons. Guess what some of them there's one hundred 1637 01:34:35,720 --> 01:34:37,960 Speaker 1: and nineteen episodes in one season. I mean, come on, 1638 01:34:38,240 --> 01:34:39,280 Speaker 1: are we serious with this? 1639 01:34:40,360 --> 01:34:40,839 Speaker 3: Wow? 1640 01:34:40,920 --> 01:34:43,680 Speaker 1: But anyway, Robin Big, I don't know. I think you 1641 01:34:43,720 --> 01:34:46,800 Speaker 1: could probably see it on YouTube or something, but it's 1642 01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:50,000 Speaker 1: it's really funny. I loved it when I came on. 1643 01:34:50,840 --> 01:34:53,640 Speaker 2: I can't tell you how much Jackass meant to me 1644 01:34:53,880 --> 01:34:56,720 Speaker 2: as a twelve year old boy. Everyone I was in 1645 01:34:56,880 --> 01:35:02,160 Speaker 2: school with started videotape themselves, like jumping off their roof 1646 01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:05,679 Speaker 2: or like jumping down the stairs. There were so many 1647 01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:09,720 Speaker 2: copycat videos, and in some ways it sort of inspired 1648 01:35:09,760 --> 01:35:12,320 Speaker 2: me to become a filmmaker. I mean, I wasn't doing 1649 01:35:12,360 --> 01:35:15,839 Speaker 2: that stuff, but I think that Jackass shows the power 1650 01:35:16,120 --> 01:35:21,840 Speaker 2: of what you can illustrate with very simple means. You know, 1651 01:35:21,960 --> 01:35:25,760 Speaker 2: you do not need that. You can just if you 1652 01:35:25,760 --> 01:35:28,200 Speaker 2: have an iPhone, you can make a movie, you know. 1653 01:35:30,040 --> 01:35:33,960 Speaker 2: And so I love Jackass and one of the things, 1654 01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:36,400 Speaker 2: and I love the show Jackass and one of the 1655 01:35:36,439 --> 01:35:40,200 Speaker 2: things that what they did they did make a TV movie. 1656 01:35:40,800 --> 01:35:43,479 Speaker 2: It's technically a TV movie, but it's also just an 1657 01:35:43,520 --> 01:35:50,240 Speaker 2: elongated episode of Jackass called Jackass Gumball three thousand Rally Special. 1658 01:35:50,439 --> 01:35:51,200 Speaker 2: Did you ever watch this? 1659 01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:53,519 Speaker 1: I never saw it. 1660 01:35:53,520 --> 01:35:57,160 Speaker 2: It's incredible, basically, and it's like a it's different than 1661 01:35:57,200 --> 01:36:00,880 Speaker 2: the rest of the show. It's Johnny Knock, Phil Steve O, 1662 01:36:01,000 --> 01:36:05,400 Speaker 2: and Chris Pontius. It's just those three guys and they 1663 01:36:05,640 --> 01:36:08,840 Speaker 2: are taking a part of Gumball three thousand, which is 1664 01:36:08,920 --> 01:36:14,280 Speaker 2: like this race across Europe, and it's like a bunch 1665 01:36:14,280 --> 01:36:17,760 Speaker 2: of it's them driving across Europe, partying with like all 1666 01:36:17,760 --> 01:36:20,559 Speaker 2: these other guys doing the Gumball three thousand, and it's 1667 01:36:20,840 --> 01:36:24,160 Speaker 2: just great because it gets to you get to hang 1668 01:36:24,200 --> 01:36:26,080 Speaker 2: out with them a little bit more than and they're 1669 01:36:26,080 --> 01:36:28,599 Speaker 2: doing stupid shit obviously, but you get to hang out 1670 01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:31,600 Speaker 2: with them a little bit more than these just short segments, 1671 01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:35,400 Speaker 2: and uh, it's a delight. And you can watch that 1672 01:36:35,479 --> 01:36:40,000 Speaker 2: on Pyramount Plus or Prime. It's out there, but definitely 1673 01:36:40,040 --> 01:36:42,799 Speaker 2: check that out. It's really funny. It's like forty minutes, 1674 01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:46,480 Speaker 2: I think for an hour. But that's my that's my recommendation, 1675 01:36:46,560 --> 01:36:49,120 Speaker 2: that's my staff pick or my employee's pick. 1676 01:36:50,960 --> 01:36:54,000 Speaker 1: I love that we're still pulling from this universe for 1677 01:36:54,080 --> 01:37:00,160 Speaker 1: our recommendations. But what a fun episode. I'm really we 1678 01:37:00,280 --> 01:37:02,479 Speaker 1: got to go in hard on this. I think it's 1679 01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:05,840 Speaker 1: a good summer vibe too. I don't know why, even 1680 01:37:05,880 --> 01:37:09,639 Speaker 1: though I guess you could pull pranks year round well, 1681 01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:14,120 Speaker 1: and I also think it's funny just to cap off 1682 01:37:14,120 --> 01:37:17,559 Speaker 1: this episode that you and I have gone on record 1683 01:37:17,680 --> 01:37:20,000 Speaker 1: several times about hating to be pranked. 1684 01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:21,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm anti prank. 1685 01:37:22,080 --> 01:37:26,680 Speaker 1: I fucking hate pranks, Like, don't prank me. If you 1686 01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:29,559 Speaker 1: prank me, I'll probably we'll never talk to you again. 1687 01:37:29,600 --> 01:37:33,160 Speaker 2: And I'm not even joking. I would never. 1688 01:37:33,439 --> 01:37:35,920 Speaker 1: However, we love the Jackass movies. What's up with that? 1689 01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:40,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's something internal, something deep within. 1690 01:37:40,920 --> 01:37:43,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe what we don't want for ourselves 1691 01:37:43,840 --> 01:37:45,440 Speaker 1: we want an others who knows. 1692 01:37:45,840 --> 01:37:47,880 Speaker 2: I'm scared to go down this rabbit hole. I don't 1693 01:37:48,120 --> 01:37:49,960 Speaker 2: cover some deep truth about myself. 1694 01:37:50,040 --> 01:37:52,360 Speaker 1: I know. I feel like we've analyzed ourselves too much already. 1695 01:37:52,600 --> 01:37:56,519 Speaker 2: But you know, it's the funny thing though, the jack Yeah, 1696 01:37:56,680 --> 01:38:01,679 Speaker 2: it's like they're almost not pranks most of the time. 1697 01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:05,719 Speaker 2: Like there are obviously like pranks where they're like tricking someone, 1698 01:38:05,800 --> 01:38:08,639 Speaker 2: but most of them are like this in between type 1699 01:38:08,680 --> 01:38:11,360 Speaker 2: of like jackass thing. I don't know, I don't know. 1700 01:38:11,360 --> 01:38:13,120 Speaker 2: It's it's hard to put your finger on. 1701 01:38:13,320 --> 01:38:15,439 Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, Well, all I know is that if 1702 01:38:15,479 --> 01:38:18,519 Speaker 1: my friends got together and shave their pubes and then 1703 01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:23,040 Speaker 1: put them in a box and then made it made 1704 01:38:23,120 --> 01:38:25,160 Speaker 1: someone's spirit gum it to my face, I'd be so 1705 01:38:26,200 --> 01:38:28,320 Speaker 1: I would never talk to those people again. 1706 01:38:28,760 --> 01:38:30,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be a tough one to get over. 1707 01:38:30,479 --> 01:38:30,880 Speaker 2: I think. 1708 01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:34,439 Speaker 3: Well. 1709 01:38:34,439 --> 01:38:39,680 Speaker 1: On that note, here's the deal, folks.
